Kimura Yijian suddenly smiled strangely, "Mr. Chen's previous auction price of calligraphy was around 120 million, even if he is famous now, I think with this porcelain, I should be able to get a piece of calligraphy." ”

"Mr. Sato, do you still think that Mr. Chen's calligraphy can reach forty or fifty million, you know, even Zheng Banqiao's calligraphy is only one or two million, and this porcelain, in my opinion, is more than enough in exchange for Mr. Chen's calligraphy."

Hearing Kimura Kazuken's words, Ando Nobuzhe suddenly smiled, "Zheng Banqiao, Mr. Kimura, Zheng Banqiao is indeed a famous calligrapher, and he studied very hard in his early years, and he can write all the fonts of the family, but he feels a little insufficient. ”

"Of course, this kind of innovation is Zheng Banqiao's innovation on the basis of some previous calligraphy, and incorporates his own brushwork of painting bamboo, which forms a kind of ancient and fluttering orchid bamboo spirit in the big calligraphy, and his original calligraphy is indeed very valuable."

"It's just that, in my opinion, Mr. Chen Yi's calligraphy skills, to surpass Zheng Banqiao, that kind of Banqiao, not everyone can appreciate the brushwork, and Mr. Chen Yi's original calligraphy, but it can make many people amazed, now the calligraphy world is a little chaotic, Mr. Chen Yi is in recent hundreds of years, the only one who created an original calligraphy, his calligraphy, very precious, thirty or forty million, that is probably just the starting price."

Chen Yi smiled, Zheng Banqiao is also a calligrapher and painter he respects the most, not only has a high level of calligraphy and painting. And in the temperament of uprightness. It's like the bamboo he painted. Due to dissatisfaction with the authorities, he dismissed his official position and returned to his hometown, and most of the poems he wrote were sympathetic to the suffering of the people.

And its calligraphy, is in response to the Yangzhou eight strange that a strange word, with the body mixed into the line, claiming to be six and a half points of the book, its painting. Mostly based on orchid grass and bamboo stone, the pen of orchid bamboo enters the calligraphy, and seeks the painting meaning of calligraphy.

In the official book, there is a kind of eight-point book with many waves, the so-called six-and-a-half-point book, which means that it is generally the official book, but it is mixed with other book styles such as Kai, line, seal, and grass. It can be seen that Zheng Banqiao's deep study of various ancient calligraphy styles.

The calligraphy he created, the size. Long, round, fat and thin, sparse and staggered interspersed, such as a chaotic stone paving street, indulgent rules, seemingly swaying with the pen, but the overall view produces a sense of rhythm of jumping and agility.

For Zheng Banqiao's style of calligraphy, some people praise, some people criticize, and it can still arouse the passion and disputes of calligraphers, which alone shows the value of Zheng Banqiao's calligraphy.

Chen Yi also praised Zheng Banqiao's six-and-a-half-point calligraphy, after all, Zheng Banqiao made a bold innovation on the basis of calligraphy, which is naturally completely different from the calligraphy of the small island country.

It's just that this kind of calligraphy, in the eyes of those who support it, has a unique style, and in the eyes of those who oppose it, it is naturally unsightly, and this kind of calligraphy with a very unique style is not something that anyone can learn.

Zheng Banqiao is known for being strange, which is far from being comparable to Chen Yi, but in terms of calligraphy level, Chen Yi's current calligraphy level has surpassed Zheng Banqiao, otherwise, it would not have caused such a big shock in the calligraphy world.

"Oh, Mr. Kimura seems to be very skeptical about the value of my calligraphy, I don't know if I dare to make a bet with me, just bet on whether my calligraphy can reach 50 million in this auction." Chen Yi smiled slightly and began to plan for Kimura Kazuken.

Don't think about it, Kimura Kazuken will definitely not agree to his suggestion, but his words are not a nonsense, and sometimes, they will play a key role.

Hearing Chen Yi's words, Kimura Kazuken was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Chen Yi to directly offer to bet with him on whether his calligraphy could reach 50 million in this auction.

Although he felt in his heart that his calligraphy could not reach 50 million, as far as Chen Yi's fame was concerned, it was very likely to exceed his estimate at the auction, you know, anything could happen at the auction, not to mention, it was still Chen Yi's calligraphy that many calligraphers and collectors wanted to get.

According to the above situation, he felt that he must not gamble with Chen Yi, otherwise, he would definitely lose, because even if he was a little reluctant in his heart, he had to admit that Chen Yi's calligraphy was basically very high at 50 million.

"Hehe, Mr. Chen Yi, your calligraphy works do not have a stable price in the market, it is really not interesting to bet with you like this, I don't doubt the value of your calligraphy, but according to my estimate, the estimated value." Kimura Yijian directly rejected Chen Yi's suggestion, he didn't want to be cheated by Chen Yi like this.

Chen Yi smiled slightly, "Mr. Kimura, since you don't dare to gamble with me, please pay attention to it when you talk in the future, the value of some things is far beyond your expectations, if you want to get it, how can it be possible without paying some price." ”

Kimura Yijian had to nod, some anger rose in his heart towards Chen Yi, he felt that he must find a way to kill Chen Yi's arrogance.

"Zheng Banqiao is known for being strange, but this kind of strangeness is not something that anyone can appreciate, compared to calligraphy, Zheng Banqiao's paintings are more famous, and Mr. Chen Yi's calligraphy is pleasing to the eye, which makes people resonate, Mr. Kimura, you only use a piece of porcelain worth more than 30 million yuan, and you want to exchange for Mr. Chen's current calligraphy, it is too ignorant of the market, the collection I took out this time is a Qing Yongzheng pastel peach birthday cover box worth 43 million."

At this time, Yuji Tsukamoto, the collector next to Nobuzhe Ando, said slowly, and at the same time brought out the porcelain he was carrying from the box.

This is a round porcelain lid box, below is a bowl-like vessel, and above, is a lid, on the lid, painted a large and full peach, looks delicate, and at the bottom of the box, is painted a circle of lotus petals, the whole looks very delicate and beautiful.

Shinzhe Ando suddenly became anxious, "Mr. Gangmoto, I just talked and didn't show the collection, you let me show it first." ”

"Haha, Mr. Ando, then you can only wait until after me, this kind of thing, you can't give in, Mr. Chen, please appreciate my porcelain." Hearing Nobuzhe Ando's words, Yuji Gangmoto said with a big laugh, and then slowly pushed the porcelain in front of Chen Yi.

Chen Yi smiled and nodded, looking at this Yongzheng pastel cover box, the decorative color on this porcelain gives people a gentle and elegant charm, the color is beautiful, the carcass is fine, white and exquisite, and it looks very light and handsome.

The lid box is a common utensil in Chinese porcelain, and it is also an indispensable thing in daily life, with many uses, according to the different types of utensils, it can hold different things, such as mirror boxes, medicine boxes, rouge boxes, ink clay boxes, stationery boxes and so on.

In the case of the exquisite Cheng dù of this piece of porcelain, it is indeed worth more than 40 million yuan, just like Yuji Gangmoto said.

After Chen Yi finished viewing this porcelain, Ando Shinzhe directly took out his collection, "Mr. Chen Yi, others suspect that your calligraphy will not reach 50 million, I believe that your calligraphy will be able to reach this value, and the collection I took out is this ancient wood songbird drawing of Wang Yuan in the Yuan Dynasty, in order to be able to exchange for your calligraphy." ”

As he spoke, Ando Nobuzhe took out the painting and spread it on the table, which was a painting on silk, near the stream, there was a strange stone, and among the strange stones, there was an ancient tree, and on the branches of this ancient tree, there were four or five birds, some stood quietly on the branches, some flapped their wings on the branches, and some looked down on the high branches.

Beside the stream, there are two peacocks snuggling together, their mouths are slightly open, as if they are chirping, in addition, there is a tall and upright bamboo next to the ancient tree, the whole painting shows the vigorous vitality of nature, it looks like the brush and ink are extremely elegant, the shades are shaded, and there is a great charm.

Seeing this painting, Chen Yi's face couldn't help but show a look of love, and there was a touch of amazement, Wang Yuan of the Yuan Dynasty, this is a famous painter.

Wang Yuan is a famous painter of the Yuan Dynasty, the disciple of the calligrapher Zhao Mengfu, his paintings are all taught by the ancients, there is no brush is the ancient courtyard, the landscape master Guo Xi, that is, the painter of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the flowers and birds are inherited from the Hou Shu Huang Zhen, first sketched and then dyed ink, the shade is deep and cheap, very charming, the wonder of sketching, when called the mastery.

Its especially fine ink flowers, birds, bamboos and stones, can be called a contemporary art, the painted paintings of flowers and birds, through guò outline and ink smudge, the difference between the shade to the back, the shape is strict, the demeanor is quite vivid, to achieve the artistic effect of ink and five colors, the same as Qian Xuan, in the creation of flowers and birds has played a role in the creation of flowers and birds.

Wang Yuan's paintings are very rare, basically preserved in the Forbidden City, and rarely appear in the auction, Chen Yi was in the Forbidden City before, had the pleasure of watching several of his paintings, and now the painting taken out by Ando Nobuzhe is also a masterpiece, and the value is definitely more than 50 million.

Seeing this painting by Ando Nobuzhe, Chen Yi was full of sighs in his heart, from the precious Chinese antiques and cultural relics taken out by these people, we can know how strict the loss of Chinese cultural relics is, and all he can do is to do his best to recover some of the lost antique cultural relics.

As for why he didn't auction more than 10 pieces of calligraphy at a time, the reason is very simple, if he auctioned more than 10 calligraphy or paintings at a time, then I'm afraid there will be no one to compete for, and the price will be lower than expected. (To be continued......)
