66 Smooth start

Chen Zengqing was originally a lion with a big mouth, there were no dates to hit a shot first, but he didn't expect that there was really a harvest, and the harvest was not small, he was naturally very satisfied, and nodded again and again: "I know that Tianyu is not a stingy person, if there is anything that needs the cooperation of our city museum in the future, you just open your mouth, if you encounter problems in identification, even if you come to me, you will not be pitted by other people's fakes." ”

"Then I will thank you in advance, and it will be indispensable to trouble Brother Chen when the time comes. I really need Brother Chen's help with something, and I don't know if it's too troublesome? "Blue Sky and Rain seem to be a little difficult to speak.

"With the relationship between our brothers, we have to help you with trouble, just say it, I will definitely do it for you." Just accepted the kindness of Lan Tianyu, Chen Zengqing was happy in his heart, and naturally wanted to show a bold appearance.

"I'm learning appraisal now, and I've mastered a lot of theoretical knowledge, but in fact I have too little experience in hand, I want to go to your museum and get all the collections of your museum on appraisal, I don't know if it's too troublesome?"

Lan Tianyu has long had such an idea, and now he is taking the opportunity to say it.

Since the last time I accompanied Wan Lao to visit the Municipal Museum, I saw a dazzling array of bronzes, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, jade, and rare books, and the blue sky and rain have been extremely hot. If he could get his hands on these huge quantities of antique treasures one by one, the spiritual and treasure qi absorbed by the altar would definitely be enough to cause the light of the altar to transform again. I dare not say that it has reached the level of golden light, and there is definitely no problem for the altar to emit red light.

The first time they met, he didn't want to make such a request rashly, and now he was already a little familiar with Chen Zengqing, so he took the opportunity to make this request.

"Since you like identification, then of course I want to support it! I'll arrange this for you when I go back, and all the cultural relics and artworks in our collection can be opened to you. As the curator, Chen Zengqing is not embarrassed to arrange this matter, and Lan Tianyu has given them such a big commission discount for the city museum, with this reason, it is enough to block the mouths of all opponents.

The price of Lingbi Shishanzi has soared to 273,000, and the bidders who continue to hold up the sign are only five or six people left to chat, Chen Zengqing saw that the time had come, and raised the sign and shouted: "Three hundred and fifty thousand!" ”

As soon as this price came out, the field suddenly quieted down, and some of the people who bid were familiar with Chen Zengqing, and when they saw that it was him who was bidding, they didn't want to compete with this appraisal master, so they gave up.

It wasn't until the auctioneer shouted the bid for the second time, and it was about to fall the hammer, that someone finally called again: "Three hundred and fifty-five thousand!" ”

"It seems that I am not blessed to appreciate this Lingbi Stone Shanzi every day, I have to calculate, how much commission I saved for Tianyu? In the future, I will remember to get it back with interest, so that Lao Fan will see me taking advantage of you in the future, and come to arrange me again. The auction was not successful, and Chen Zengqing didn't mind, joking quietly.

The final hammer price of this Lingbi Shishanzi was 360,000 yuan, which was slightly higher than the previous high estimate, and the selection of the first lot was very successful.

The next few items on the auction are not of high value, the price range is between 50,000 and 100,000, although there are not many bidders, but none of them are unsold, and the transaction price is slightly higher than the lowest estimate.

The auction of several ordinary items in a row is starting to be a little cold, and a hot lot is needed to enhance the atmosphere in the venue.

"The auction below is Tian Huang Boyi's 'Autumn Mountain Travel Map' ornament. This is a work of Mr. Shen Feng, a famous carving master in our province, who won the gold medal of the provincial jade carving competition in his early years. The preciousness of this masterpiece must have been carefully appreciated by everyone at the preview, so I won't repeat them one by one. The starting price is 100,000 yuan, and each increase is not less than 2,000 yuan, and the auction begins! ”

As soon as the auctioneer's words fell, one after another the bidding sounded one after another.

Shen Feng is one of the most prestigious master carvers in Nanzhou Province, and he is the best at carving jade works, and the ordinary jade ornaments he carves now cost more than one million. Although there is a big gap between it and his current artistic achievements, and the value of Tianhuang stone used is not high, but after all, it has won the honor of the gold medal in the provincial competition, and it should not be difficult to auction a satisfactory price.

The characteristics of thin-meaning carving lie in the timelessness of artistic conception, vertical and sense of space; The lines are smart and exquisite, and they are fascinating. The layout of this thin carving by Master Shen Feng shows a profound Chinese painting literacy, and it is the basis for thin creation.

In this work, the theme of the picture is high mountains in the sky, green trees are clinging, the old pine posture is vigorous, the momentum is majestic, the autumn moon is reflected in it, and several houses under the ancient trees are clearly visible. Nearby, the peaks and loops turn to the lush trees, the scenery is unobstructed, and at the foot of the mountain, the master and servant are walking along the road, the master is sitting on a horse, and the servant follows closely. The characters are vivid and realistic, the mountains and forests and houses are clearly layered, and the carving craftsmanship is exquisite, such as the real scene. The virtual and the real are alternate, the composition is clear, elegant and dignified, and the decoration is very three-dimensional.

Although it is slightly inferior in artistic conception and has not yet reached the achievement of master-level carving, this is Shen Feng's transformation work, and the significance is extraordinary, and the price should far exceed Shen Feng's works of the same period.

Previously, Gu Yun's estimate of this Tian Huangshi work was 250,000 to 400,000 yuan, but the bidding on the field was very hot, and now it has exceeded 300,000 yuan, and there are still four people who continue to raise cards.

Although there were only four people left, the competition was still fierce, and the magnitude of the bidding was getting bigger and bigger each time.

"Three hundred and fifteen thousand!"

"Three hundred and twenty thousand!"

"Three hundred and thirty thousand!"

"Three hundred and forty thousand!"

"It seems that there are a lot of discerning people on the field, although the current price of this Tianhuang thin carving is not high, but the future appreciation potential is great, and it is not uncommon for the market price to exceed one million in a few years."

For Chen Zengqing's judgment, Lan Tianyu also thinks so. The value of Tian Huangshi has been rising year by year, Master Shen Feng has been sealing the knife for a long time, and his stone carving works have long been difficult to find in the market.

"Master Shen Feng's stone carving works are rare to see, this thin carving, the artistic conception is timeless, I like it very much. It is rare to meet a boutique that you like and has great potential for appreciation, as a businessman, such an opportunity must not be missed. After finishing speaking, Qin Botao raised the number plate in his hand and joined the competition.

Since he participated in this monthly auction, Qin Botao has to take a photo of the next item to show his support. Hearing Chen Zengqing's comments, he immediately chose this Tianhuang carving as his target.

After several rounds of bidding, Qin Botao finally got his wish and auctioned this early work of Master Shen Feng at a price of 450,000 yuan
