Chapter 968: Falsification
The man surnamed Zhang said: "How can it be imitation?" Who can place such a beautiful and natural bronze tripod? ”
Han Peacock sneered: "The bronzes placed in that small village, even if you are not an insider, you know it, right?" I think, even if this bronze tripod is identified as carbon 14, it is impossible to identify anything, why is there some bronze ware that can be sold at a price in an orderly manner, and the others are not worth much? Why? It's because there are so many fakes that even if it's real, it won't sell for a price. ”
Han Peacock's words were not groundless, so the man surnamed Zhang who said it directly was speechless.
In today's world, genuine porcelain fragments and fake fragments are glued together to become cultural relics that can be auctioned at sky-high prices, and porcelain and clay pots can be scanned with radiography to turn them into antiquities from thousands of years ago......
The current process of counterfeiting cultural relics has indeed reached the extreme, and the ability of some craftsmen to make counterfeits can completely impact the Nobel Prize.
For example, one of the tricks of counterfeiting: use X-rays to illuminate porcelain, walk a way, 500 years, and then walk an old 1000 years, of course, bronze is also very applicable here.
Many craftsmen in the market will be based on the newly excavated porcelain fragments from the ground, according to the ancient porcelain shape to complete into a complete body, only the bottom or the payment is real, the others are fake, often people take this porcelain for sale, because it is not easy to identify, many people have been deceived.
The West has long conducted a number of studies on Chinese ceramics, and they found. Through the physical principles of guò, we can know the number of radioactive decay inside the device, and judge how many years the device has undergone.
But the counterfeiters also immediately kept pace with the times, and developed a counterfeiting technique to deal with it, and they went to add some rays to the equipment to deal with this kind of detection, and there was a joke in the industry, which was supposed to go back to the Qing Dynasty, but after a long time, the result was a look. It's back to ancient times.
This is because this test method is a damage identification method. It needs to be sampled on porcelain, which is destructive, so the domestic cultural relics industry is still mainly based on visual inspection.
Identification from the fetus, shape, glaze, craftsmanship, painting pattern, style and other aspects of porcelain. These indicators are up to the mark. In order to pass the guò primary.
In addition to the old and new stitching, X-rays. There are many ways to counterfeit porcelain. For example, use emery to make scratches on the outside of porcelain, and then add a sense of historical stale to this scratch; In order to prevent the inside of the utensils from being exposed, they are also burned and smoked with fireworks......
It's really a matter of how far the mind goes. How far can counterfeiters go.
Seeing Han Peacock talking about some fraud methods in the industry, the face of the man surnamed Zhang was longer than the face of a donkey.
"If Boss Han doesn't like these two heavy weapons, then there will be no objections to this pile of jade, right?" The man surnamed Zhang simply broke the jar and pointed to the pile of jade.
Han Peacock smiled and said: "Of course there is no objection, this pile of jade can be regarded as a pair of gifts for me, what I said just now is clear, if those gold ornaments are not stepping stones, the price of one million is too high, and now it is obvious that that those gold ornaments are just gold ornaments, and they are completely unrelated to antiques, so these jades, Brother Zhang must be embarrassed to accept my money." ”
If the golden sheath jade sword and the Jiang Ding are fakes, then the previous gold jewelry cannot be antiques, but after all, it is real gold, so although Han Peacock said that it was expensive, he did not shout that he was fooled, but he would not pay for the pile of jade.
The face of the man surnamed Zhang kept changing color, and after a while he said: "I gave these jade artifacts, Boss Han will wait a while, I still have some calligraphy and paintings here, maybe Boss Han is interested." ”
As he spoke, the man surnamed Zhang walked towards the Bogu shelf, while Han Peacock held a jade and said, "Do you know how the new jade becomes an ancient jade?" In fact, it is not difficult at all, first burn and then bury, and hide in the leg of mutton, such as the famous golden jade clothes.
A businessman concocted a gold-threaded jade robe from a pile of jade pieces, which was strongly supported by a number of top appraisal experts with an 'estimate of 2.4 billion yuan', and Shun Lì got a loan of 1.2 billion yuan from the bank, until the East Window incident, 900 million yuan of funds were lost.
How did this 'golden jade robe' deceive the eyes of many experts? The counterfeiter will first burn the new jade with fire, causing cracks on the surface of the jade, and then kill a dog, put the jade in the dog's belly, and bury it in the ground for a year.
Or cut a slit in the leg of the sheep, hide the jade in the sew, and then take it out after a year, this piece of jade will have a 'blood Qin', jade or porcelain will become soft after being buried in the ground for a long time, and it is easy to absorb the substances it comes into contact with, so there are many counterfeiters who will burn the jade first, and then burn the cotton into ashes, wrap it in the outside of the jade, and the ash seeps into the cracks, and it has the appearance of ancient jade.
In addition to the 'golden jade clothes', another joke in the field of cultural relics counterfeiting is the 'Han Dynasty jade stool', counterfeiting is actually imitation, but we must also respect history and art, these two are fake out of thin air, no one in the Han Dynasty sat on the stool, they all sat on the ground, how could there be a jade stool? This is purely profit-driven money worship, which is too irresponsible to history. ”
Although the man surnamed Zhang left this room, Han Peacock and they were always under his surveillance, so Han Peacock's words fell into his ears without leakage, and when he heard Han Peacock's words, the face of the man surnamed Zhang turned green directly.
However, with the intention of being able to sell a little bit, the man surnamed Zhang directly took out a wooden box, which contained some books and paper, and of course, some painting scrolls, but not much.
Listening to the man's footsteps, Han Peacock spoke again: "When it comes to counterfeiting, it is the cleverness of counterfeiting methods of calligraphy and painting, some famous paintings, foreign cultural relics counterfeiters will carefully expose a pair of authentic masterpieces into two layers, and they can be sold as two paintings."
The first layer can be sold for a high price, but the stamps and ink on the second layer have been blurred, and the value has been damaged, and the price will not be as high as the first layer.
Many people do fake calligraphy and painting are copying, such as the word 'ten', if it is a genuine handwriting, the place where a horizontal and vertical cross, the ink must be heavier than other places, and the flashlight shines from the back, and you can clearly see the difference.
But if it is a copy of the fake, the counterfeiter generally just traces the frame first, and then fills in the color, the two overlapping places of the ink is not special, for example, Zhang Daqian is a master of fake paintings, during the Anti-Japanese War, there is a martial arts, Han collector to Chong, Qing to find Zhang Daqian, come back and say: I don't dare to buy calligraphy and painting anymore, his fake is too real.
In addition, real paintings plus fake paintings, fake paintings and real paintings copied with special printers, with projection as the intermediary, copy the master's real handwriting......
Counterfeiting means in the world of calligraphy and painting, is countless, although fakes are flying all over the sky, but as long as the buyer is not greedy, no matter how clever the fraud is useless, many people are deceived is greedy, thinking that they read this book, watch some serial dramas will understand, in fact, the knowledge of cultural relics collection is very deep. ”
"Mr. Han is really an expert, why don't you show me these calligraphy and paintings to see if they are fakes." The man surnamed Zhang snorted and threw the box directly into the hall.
Han Peacock didn't care what he thought, since he had the confidence to let him see it, he would take a look, although it was the first time he saw this guy surnamed Zhang, but Han Peacock didn't have any good feelings for him, so with the idea of being cheap and not taking advantage of the bastard, he squatted down directly, wanting to see if there were any surprises inside.
At this time, footsteps came from outside again: "Zhang Cheng, are you kid not at home?" ”
As soon as the voice came, several people walked into the room, and Han Peacock looked up and saw that it was actually an acquaintance.
"You kid is using the rags your grandfather made to deceive people? I said, even if you are a liar, you can get something good-looking, not very famous, like this golden sheath jade sword, such a conspicuous thing, even if a fool understands it a little, he will not be fooled. A middle-aged man walked in, and at a glance he saw Han Peacock squatting on the ground, flipping through a book.
Just like he said, the golden sheath jade sword was so conspicuous, but Han Peacock ignored it, it must have known that it was a fake, so the middle-aged man did not leave a little room to speak, and he was not afraid of messing up Zhang Cheng's business.
Zhang Cheng smiled bitterly: "Uncle Zhao, talk a little bit of morality, these things are all treasures left by my grandfather, why did they become tattered when they got into your mouth?" ”
"Forget it, I won't say you kid, you have this time, it's better to contact me a few more customers, this time I have friends to come to Yangcheng, you introduce a few reliable, they are all big names in the home industry, those crooked things, you don't want to delay our time." Zhao Dayou looked at Zhang Cheng, and hated iron but not steel.
Zhang Cheng said: "There are really a few Ming and Qing Dynasty furniture around, but the asking price is not low, now as long as it is a real thing, there is no cheap, after all, for so many years, even if you are a fool, you will become smarter." ”
"As long as the price isn't too outrageous." Zhao Dayou said.
Zhang Cheng smiled bitterly: "It's just that the price is too outrageous to stay until now, otherwise those good things can still be left until now?" ”
"That's what I said, that's why I came to you kid! As long as they really want to sell, the market is there, and my friend can buy it at a higher price, so that you can't let the people you know suffer.
But, if the price is sky-high, you don't really want to sell, you kid is a professional in this regard, you can help more, I think, who really wants to sell things here, you must know, as long as the thing is done, you are indispensable. "Zhao Dayou said.
After Zhao Dayou finished speaking, he wanted to pull Zhang Cheng away, but this time Zhang Cheng did not move, it turned out that there was no such situation.
"What? Don't want to live anymore? If it weren't for Uncle Zhao pulling you, no one would care if your kid starved to death. Zhao Da looked at Zhang Cheng suspiciously.
Han Peacock stood up, and the two girls who were blocked by him also exposed their figures.
"Mr. Han?" Zhao Dayou looked at Han Peacock and said in surprise.
Han Peacock nodded and smiled: "Brother Zhao? (To be continued......)
