Chapter 22: Amazing
At the same time, in an antique street in Mingyang City.
At this time, a man and a woman were in a store called [Spotlight Pavilion], greeting an old man with black and white hair cordially.
The man was holding a delicate box in his hand, and at this moment he took out a long scroll from it and spread it out on the table.
"Professor Lin, I came here this time, in fact, there is a painting that you can help me to see, and identify whether it is real or fake. ”
Next to him, a quiet woman in a chiffon top and a hip-hugging skirt was particularly beautiful.
At this time, he gently tugged on the man's sleeve and persuaded in a low voice: "Wen Bing, forget it, don't check it." ”
The man was very insistent and said to her: "Don't worry, Professor Lin is the authority in this regard, and he can definitely see whether it is true or not." After having the results, I can give you peace of mind, otherwise outsiders will really think that I am lying to you. ”
"I didn't think about it that way. The woman said.
"I know you haven't thought so, but outsiders can't guarantee it. No one can question my sincerity towards you. Not even that kid. The man said.
At home before, the man wanted to use this painting to please Song Yuchen, but he was said to be a fake painting by a takeaway boy, which made the originally good atmosphere become embarrassing for a while.
Song Yuchen actually doesn't mind whether it's true or not, because in terms of quality, even if this painting is a fake, it can be regarded as superior.
But Zheng Wenbing minded this very much.
So, he also took Song Yuchen to Professor Lin.
Professor Lin used to work at the Beijing Museum, but after retiring early, he returned here to open an antique shop.
In this regard, he is an absolute authority.
An ancient painting, if you want to know whether it is true or false, it is definitely right to ask him.
"Wen Bing, have you asked someone to identify this painting before?"
Professor Lin and Zheng Wenbing were also very familiar, and after watching for more than ten minutes, he put down the magnifying glass and asked.
Zheng Wenbing said: "I didn't find someone to identify it, but I just ...... Hey, don't mention it, it's a fire in your belly. I bought this painting from other provinces at a high price, and I wanted to give it to Yuchen. But just now, a takeaway delivered a few casual glances and said that the painting was fake. ”
Professor Na Lin said: "What a takeaway said, you take it seriously?"
"I definitely don't believe it, but this painting is my mind, and it definitely won't work if someone questions it, so I found you here and let you palm your eyes. ”
Professor Lin smiled: "You are too serious. ”
Song Yuchen also whispered on the side: "That's it, I also said that it is not used to identify." ”
Zheng Wenbing said with a serious face: "It's not okay not to identify, I'm also worried that if you believe that kid's words, Yuchen, then my intentions will be worthless." And the kid just looked at it casually, and said that there were two doubts about this painting, and in my opinion, this is complete nonsense. ”
"Oh, what do you have two doubts?" Professor Lin asked.
Zheng Wenbing also came to the side of the painting and said: "He said that a suspicious point is that the painting technique is wrong, and there is a hesitation between the transfer of this ink, but when I look at this painting, the brush and ink are flowing smoothly, where is the hesitation?"
He also said that the paper of this painting is wrong, hehe, you said that it is ridiculous or not, just based on two eyes, you can conclude that this paper is not Qianlong rice paper, but Guangxu rice paper, it is just nonsense. ”
Professor Lin kept a smile on his face and did not make up his mind right away.
Zheng Wenbing continued: "Of course, I don't believe it, what this painting is, I have to let Professor Lin make a final decision." ”
"Where did you buy this painting?" asked Professor Lin.
"The [Guangsheng Auction House] in Guanghai City bought it, and the certificates and receipts are also available. ”
"[Guangsheng Auction House] is also one of the best in Guanghai City, and it should be true, but this painting ...... But it's also false. ”
Hearing this, Zheng Wenbing's expression was stunned, and he thought that he had heard it wrong: "Fake...... of?"
"Well, as you said, there is something wrong with the technique and the paper. The difference in the material of the paper is very small, and people who are not professionals can basically not see it. There is also this technique, which is indeed very similar to the imitation, but this is just a similarity, but the meaning is not similar. As the saying goes, it is difficult to draw bones when painting dragons and tigers, and between authentic works and fakes, what is often missing is a meaning and a bone. This painting, apparently, does not have. Professor Lin said.
When Song Yuchen heard this, his face was surprised: "Chen Jing also said that 'the shape is not similar', and also said that this imitator does not have Xu Yang's free and easy feeling of a meteor." ”
"This ......" Zheng Wenbing was also dumbfounded for a while, "Professor Lin, you're not kidding, are you?"
was said by Chen Jing to be fake, and he could scold angrily.
But Professor Lin said it was fake, but he didn't dare to scold him for half a sentence.
Because Professor Lin is indeed an authority in this area, a real professional.
"From the point of view of fakes, this is also considered a top grade. Wen Bing: What you are good at is oil painting, and it is normal that you don't know much about Chinese painting. In fact, if you are not a professional, you really can't easily tell whether it's true or fake. Professor Lin said.
"This ...... So, have I really been deceived?"
"How much did you pay for this painting?"
"More than two million. ”
"That's a bit of a loss, this painting is worth a few thousand yuan, and two million is greatly not worth it. ”
After Professor Lin finished speaking, he also re-rolled up the painting for him.
"Domestic antiques, the water is deep, Wen Bing, you don't know, it's better not to buy it casually. Where are there so many authentic works in the world? But it is not a loss for you to eat a trench and grow wise, and to buy a lesson. ”
Zheng Wenbing was stunned for a while, but he didn't come back to his senses.
Looking at the painting on the table, he almost wanted to tear it off.
The paintings bought for more than two million yuan are really worth a few thousand yuan as Chen Jing's kid said!
"It turns out that what Ah Jing said is true, so it seems that he really knows how to paint. Song Yuchen said suddenly.
Professor Lin helped the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose and became a little interested: "I'm curious about what kind of person you are talking about delivering takeaways? At first glance, this painting does look like the real thing, and I also looked carefully for a long time before I could see the clues." And the person you're talking about can tell if it's true or false just by looking at it twice, so that's quite remarkable. ”
Song Yuchen explained with a smile: "Ah Jing is not a food delivery, he is just a high school student, but what you just said, Professor Lin, is really almost the same as what he said." ”
Professor Lin was surprised: "I have been studying Qing Dynasty paintings for more than 40 years, so I have such experience. You're talking about Ah Jing, but she's just a high school student?"
"Hmm. ”
"That's interesting. ”
