"I'll know a little bit about why." Guan Guokang said: "At the beginning, my master and Zhang Huoni were still a little familiar, and I heard my master say that Zhang Huoni actually didn't take Li too seriously, and he made those fakes because of interest. ”

"It's not for profit, it's for fame?" Chu Chen asked.

Guan Guokang nodded: "Yes, Zhang Huoni likes others to appreciate his works, but he is not too good at dealing with people, and his personality is like what we call a nerd, so he will add his logo to the imitations he makes, in order to attract the attention of others." Later, he found that this method worked well, so he took pleasure in it, and put his logo on each of his works. ”

Chu Chen nodded clearly, but he was still a little strange: "Then the descendants of Weishenme Zhang Huoni will abide by this rule?" ”

"I don't know much about this, maybe there are some rules for Zhang Huoni?" Guan Guokang replied.

Chu Chen thought about it, just like many people will abide by the rules passed down from their ancestors, Zhang Huoni may have some legacy to pass down.

"Old Qian, I don't know how you are going to deal with this?" Guan Guokang asked.

Qian Lao said helplessly: "What else can I do, let's take it step by step, presumably Liu Lao has already begun to investigate the source of this matter, let's only organize personnel to investigate the relevant collections in our association first." ”

Guan Guokang frowned and said: "Old Qian, this is a bit of a fanfare, and the business will definitely have an impact at that time." ”

"No way!" Qian Lao shook his head and said: "There will indeed be some losses in a short period of time, but compared with the depression of the entire industry, everyone must know which is more important." Fortunately, Zhang Huoni is only interested in high-end porcelain, so the impact will be smaller. If then someone doesn't care about the big picture. That's just a word of sorry. ”

In fact, it is also an offending thing to do so. As the saying goes, cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, and it is estimated that money and young people will not be allowed to use some thunderous means. However, for the sake of the entire industry, Qian Lao no longer cares about his reputation, and he has to do it no matter what.

For this, Chu Chen still admires it.

"Okay, I strongly support this matter, and my old bone will be arranged by you." Guan Guokang nodded.

Qian Lao smiled, and then said to Chu Chen: "Xiao Chu." I don't know if you can lend me this glaze red can for a few days, after all, there is no basis for this matter, and it can be more convincing with your thing. ”

Chu Chen hurriedly said: "Old Qian, you can take the things, after all, I am a member of the industry, I should do what I can, and if there is anything I can help at that time, you can just command." ”

Qian Lao said happily: "Xiao Chu." Your eyesight is so good, it's time for you to help. ”

"Okay, as long as I don't have anything else, I'm sure I'll be there with me!"

After the day. Chu Chen has been traveling with the expert group formed by the association between the various antique markets in the capital. And the results of the investigation also made Qian Lao and them happy and worried. Happily, most of them have nothing to do with Zhang Huoni's high imitation. Worryingly, there are two imitations with the "fire clay" logo.

Among them. One is a small jar of Yuan mackerel algae pattern, and the other is a Qing Kangxi enamel character amphora, both of which are valuable treasures, adding up to an estimated loss of nearly 20 million, when the owner of the thing learned that it was a fake, they were all pale in shock, and that miserable appearance made Chu Chen can't bear to look at it directly.

However, in addition to these two unhappy things, Chu Chen felt that his life in the past few days was very nourishing, not only did he see many coveted cherished porcelain, which made him addicted, but also learned a lot of appraisal experience that was not in books.

Of course, there is such a young man as Chu Chen in the expert group, even if he is low-key, he still attracts the attention of others.

Of course, at the beginning, when everyone heard that Chu Chen was a disciple of Liu Lao, they just thought that he was here to play soy sauce and gain some experience, but as his solid basic skills and his amazing eyesight gradually appeared in front of everyone, this contempt gradually turned into impressive.

zuihou, even more because of the identification of a fake Qing Qianlong pastel nine peach celestial ball bottle, let everyone admire him.

It was a day of expert group identification, after a morning of identification, basically all the treasures have been identified, but when it was time to eat, there was a senior collector who brought a Qing Qianlong pastel nine peach celestial ball bottle.

In fact, in addition to having an impact on some antique businesses, this appraisal activity is also a rare opportunity for the owners of antique shops and senior collectors.

You must know that none of the members of the expert group are mediocre hands, except for Chu Chen, all of them are well-known appraisal masters, if they can hide the artifact and get their affirmation, then the value of the artifact will also double.

Because of this, although some people were reluctant at first, they were attracted by the general trend and this benefit, and they still dispelled their worries and took out the treasures in their own stores or collections.

Originally, the owner of the Qing Qianlong Pastel Nine Peach Heavenly Ball Bottle liked to be low-key, and he didn't want to take out this pastel bottle, but later, under the persuasion of an old friend, after thinking for a long time, he decided to take out this pastel bottle for expert identification, because after a long time of research and appreciation, there was a question, which surrounded his heart for a while.

In the appraisal process in the past few days, Chu Chen was the first to handle every thing, and there was actually a reason for doing so. Because he was afraid that if a very realistic fake, these old-timers could not see the strangeness in it, and took it as the real thing, then he would be in a dilemma.

The antique industry is very particular about connections, and if you can't even do the basic sophistication, then don't want to make a name for yourself in this industry.

If Chu Chen overturned all their conclusions on the premise that these old-timers thought that things were genuine, then he would seem to be powerful at the same time, and he would also slap these old-timers in the face, not to mention that this is in the antique world that pays attention to connections, even in the workplace, he can only send four words "stupid".

And this is also the fundamental reason why Chu Chen insists on every appraisal, and he handles it for the first time, although doing so is easy to be regarded as a bird, but it is better than being disliked by the old-timers.

After the collector brought the pastel Nine Peach Heavenly Sphere bottle to the table, Chu Chen began to appreciate it seriously.

Tianqiu vase is a kind of large-scale porcelain for palace furnishings, it is a kind of porcelain shape deeply influenced by West Asian culture, which began in the Yongle and Xuande periods of the Ming Dynasty, and is like a celestial sphere, so it is called Tianqiu vase. Qing Yongzheng, Qianlong two dynasties in the heyday, antique style prevailed, and Hongli is very fond of porcelain and elegant ware, therefore, the heavenly ball bottle began to prevail again.

In front of the heavenly vial, the carcass is white, the enamel is as smooth as snow, the tire glaze is integrated, and the tire repair is extremely regular. With pink, green, white, brown and other colors, the boneless painting method is used to paint a peach tree and a moon season on the bottle body. The peach is dry and strong, and there are 9 peaches on the branches, the fruit is full, and the branches and leaves are luxuriant. The trees are lined with moon seasons, light and pretty. The blue and white seal book at the bottom of the bottle "Qianlong Year of the Qing Dynasty" is a six-character paragraph.

Pastel, also known as "soft color", is a variety of overglaze colored porcelain. The so-called glaze color is painted on the glaze surface of the fired haode vegetarian ware, and then baked at a temperature of 600 degrees Celsius to 900 degrees Celsius in the kiln.

The painting method of pastel porcelain is generally to draw the outline of the pattern on the white porcelain fired at high temperature, and then use arsenic-containing glass white as the base, and then apply the pigment to this layer of glass white, and gently wash the color according to the different shades of light and shade with a clean pen, so that the petals and the clothes of the characters have a sense of light and shade.

Due to the opaque effect of arsenic, the glass white has a feeling of opacity, and after the fusion of various colors, it produces a powdering effect, the red color becomes pink, the green color becomes light green, the yellow color becomes light yellow, and other colors also become opaque light tones, and the amount of its addition can be controlled to obtain a series of different shades of hue, giving people a sense of powder and softness, so this glaze color is called "pastel".

In terms of expression techniques, pastels have progressed from flat filling to light and dark washing. In terms of style, its layout and brushwork are characteristic of traditional Chinese painting.

Since Qianlong, pastel has almost completely replaced the position of colorful in the field of colored porcelain. At this time, although the quality of pastel is not as beautiful and elegant as the Yongzheng period, it is gradually becoming more complicated in the decoration process, rich and diverse in shape, and the modeling process is more refined, whether it is a large furnishing porcelain up to more than one meter, or a wrench finger and snuff bottle as small as a few centimeters, the shape is very regular, and there is rarely a flattening or crooked phenomenon.

What's more worth mentioning is that the novel and exquisite carved porcelain was newly created in the Qianlong period, and all kinds of carved bottles include neck bottles, heart bottles, Jiaotai bottles, set bottles, crown frames and all kinds of foot bowls, etc., in a variety of forms, which are incomparable to other eras.

To say that this celestial ball bottle at first glance, it feels very good to Chu Chen, the fetal quality is very fine, the glaze is firm, as fine as fat like jade, smooth and flawless, and the mouth and bottom of the utensils are also glazed with turquoise green.

The characteristics of this turquoise green glaze, Qianlong pastel has a unique feature. The turquoise green glaze is very light and glossy, the glaze is like porridge skin, because it is a low-temperature color glaze, the glaze often has fine grains. This feature first appeared in the Qianlong period and was used until the late Qing Dynasty.

In addition, the pastel of this celestial globe bottle is well used, accurately expressing the color and texture of the imitation, which can be described as vivid. (To be continued......)
