In December 2018, when the entire Pujiang circle of friends was swept by the first snow, Jiangshan was invited to enter the Pujiang Museum.

According to the previous agreement, Jiangshan will lead his team to take pictures of the grand occasion and make a commemorative album for a major exhibition at the Shanghai Expo.

This big exhibition that caused a sensation in the entire calligraphy and painting circle is the "Danqing Treasure Raft - Dong Qichang Calligraphy and Painting Art Exhibition".

Although the exhibition is known as Dong Qichang, the reason for its sensation is not "Dong Qichang".

Rather: the "Leftover Mountain Map" (the first part of the Fuchun Mountain Residence Map) lent by the Zhejiang Museum, the "Jiangnan Spring Picture Scroll" lent by the Bo, and the "Xiajing Mountain Pass Waiting Map" by Liao Bo,

Tian-Jin Museum's Wang Xizhi's "Cold Cut Tile Scrolling", and Jibo's Su Shi's "Xingshu Dongting Spring......

Song Huizong's "Bamboo Bird Scroll" loaned by the New York Metropolis, Wang Xizhi's "Xing Sui Ti" from the Princeton Museum in the United States, and Yan Zhenqing's "Regular Script from the Book" from the Japanese-Benli Calligraphy Museum......

Coupled with Shangbo's own calligraphy and paintings, a total of 154 hand-me-down works, so that calligraphy and painting lovers from all over the country and even the world have flown to Pujiang to share the feast of the palace.

It was also on this day that Jiang Shan, accompanied by the management of Shangbo, walked into the office of Shangbo located under the museum.

There, Jiang Shan was not only fortunate to see the "Shang Bo Jian" that was being sorted out, but also saw Chu Jian's "Confucius Poetry Treatise" in the warehouse on the second basement floor.

As early as the spring of 1994, a batch of Warring States Chujian appeared in the cultural relics market in Xiangjiang.

Zhang Guangyu, a professor at the Chinese University of Chinese in Hong Kong, who has been paying attention to the compilation of the Warring States Bamboo Script, informed Ma Chengyuan, director of the Shanghai Expo, of this information.

At the same time, some facsimile pictures were telegraphed.

After research and discussion, Shangbo funded the purchase of more than 1,200 pieces of Chu Jian, including the remnants.

A few months later, several of Ma Chengyuan's friends in Xiangjiang once again invested in the purchase of 500 pieces of Chu Jian and donated them to Shangbo for research.

Many years later, when Jiang Shan stepped into the Shangbo warehouse, what he saw was no longer the wet and soft bamboo slips that were in the shape of noodles back then.

Rather, it has been dehydrated and reinforced, and sealed in a plexiglass box.

The whole body is yellowed and simple, the font is fine, and the drawing is exquisite.

The pen is small and neat, and the font is quite Chufeng.

Most of the obscure text content of the book on Chu Jian has never appeared in the world.

Looking at the "Shang Bo Jian" in front of him, Jiang Shan just wanted to say: If such an object is also a forgery, then the person in the account is definitely a person.

It must be taken seriously and strictly protected.

It's a pity that I have been playing Bo Jian, Tsinghua Jian, and Peking University Jian...... After the appearance.

These ancient Janes, which were buried in the ground before the book burning pit, have been continuously cracked down.

At first, several industry experts did not doubt the age of Gu Jian.

I only think that these ancient slips that go against history are "pseudo-historical records" that do not conform to the annals of history.

I never thought that many insiders and outsiders immediately made a big fuss about this "pseudo" word.

For a time, all kinds of speculations and doubts flew all over the sky.

Even if Gu Jian's true body had never been seen, it did not prevent them from making all kinds of inferences.

At first, it didn't have much impact, but with the advent of the new media era, these little-known skeptics quickly "withdrew" the titles of experts and professors.

In this way, they become more persistent.

However, just like many experts said to those "Shangbo Jane Counterfeiters": Everything must be evidenced, since you say that "Shangbo Jian" is a pseudo, then please come up with evidence.

After all, even ordinary people understand the truth of 'who asserts and who adduces evidence'.

Although, the questioning of 'empty words, red lips and white teeth' is not only aimed at "Shangbo Jian".

However, compared with Tsinghua Jane and Peking University Jane, ...... the way to "get donated", the first batch of "Shangbo Jane" was purchased by Shangbo.

Therefore, the "huge" acquisition money of 500,000 yuan has undoubtedly become a cliché for "anti-counterfeiters" to attack the director of the Shanghai Expo.

But there is no mention of the sky-high collections that Director Ma Chengyuan came to "turn the edge" of Shangbo.

Eating a full meal every day is either to study the newly published "Shangbo Jian Rubbing", or to pay attention to Director Ma's every move.

Every word on the Bo Jian, and every sentence that Director Ma said, can immediately pick up an article "Pseudo Jane on Bo Jian and New Evidence", "Let's talk about how fake Shang Bo Jane is"......

One of the things that excited them the most was what Director Ma said to Director Nanbo.

One day, some Han Jane, which was still stained with mud, was sent to the Nanjing-Beijing Museum.

The director of the Nanbo Museum saw that part of the content on the Han Jian turned out to be "Warring States Policy".

The old and spicy curator, facing the fairy who was sent to the door, did not move a single mortal heart.

Turning his face, he sent these bamboo slips to the Nanjing Soil Research Institute.

But after the detection of the instrument, the soil on these bamboo slips is really more than 2,000 years old.

But even in the face of ironclad evidence, the curator remained skeptical.

As the head of the first museum, he didn't grow up as a vegetarian.

In his opinion, the brushes on these bamboo slips are too chic and elegant, and do not conform to the writing habits of the corresponding dynasties.

For the sake of prudence, the director of the South China Museum sent the bamboo slips to Ma Chengyuan, the director of the Shanghai Museum.

Curator Ma recognized it with the naked eye, and affirmed the suspicion of the director of Nanbo: fake, don't pay for it.

Not only that, but he also told the other party about a newly developed counterfeiting technology: these bamboo slips are made of unearthed coffin boards of the Western Han Dynasty, and our museum has also been fooled.

In addition to rejoicing, the director of the Nanbo did not forget to praise the selfless experience of the Shanghai Expo.

Unexpectedly, the "anti-counterfeiting expert" who was waiting on the side immediately published an article "Ask Bojian again, are you also a product of the coffin board".

After 2000, new media has been rapid.

Questioning, questioning, and pressing from all sides...... It was extremely troublesome to the old curator of Shangbo in his twilight years.

Finally, one night in 2004, the old man, who had been running for Shangbo all his life, jumped out of the window after leaving a sentence of "I don't owe Shangbo".

And the year of Ma Lao's curtain call, it was less than ten years before he single-handedly promoted the new museum of Shangbo.

Fortunately, although the Si people have gone, the bamboo is still in the book.

The waist pole of "Shangbo Jane" is also getting thicker and stronger because of the continuous excavation of ancient Jane such as "Jujube Paper Jane".

And Shangbo's sorting work of "Shangbo Jane" has not stopped for a moment.

In their opinion, the advancement of this work is the greatest consolation to the old curator.

When Ma Chengyuan bought the first batch of bamboo slips, he said that he would first salvage them and then do further research.

Because he has already experienced many wars, and if he thinks about it a little, he will be captured by Japan.

And Ma Chengyuan's friends in Xiangjiang, it was precisely because of his words that he bought all the ancient slips that appeared in the Xiangjiang antique market at that time, and packaged them and donated them to Shangbo.

In fact, in Jiangshan's view, even if there are some indiscriminate pieces of these thousands of ancient Janes, it doesn't matter.

Shangbo only paid a total of 500,000 yuan, not to mention how many leaks were picked up.

People have been doing it for more than ten years, and they can still make the fake ones fill?

……

In the underground office of Shangbo in 2018, when Jiangshan looked at the dusk on "Shangbo Jian", an unexpected encounter more than ten years ago became clear again.

At that time, Jiang Shan not only didn't know who the old man who was exploring with him was?

I didn't know that this interesting old man was about to die in a few months.

It was a stormy night in 2004.

Approaching the closing moment, the country that has not yet left Shangbo is copying a bronze object in a race against time.

Without noticing, an old man in his 70s had been standing behind him for a long time: "Which university student?" ”

The sudden inquiry did not affect the country: "I graduated early." ”

"I thought you were here to finish your summer homework!"

After the old man finished speaking, he sat down on a bench in the center of the exhibition hall.

Looking at the country and mountains standing in front of the bronze ancient artifact with a focused gaze, Ma Chengyuan, who was more than 70 years old, remembered the past when he was young.

used to be myself, and I also had a period of shallot-like years!

"Young man," Ma Chengyuan asked with a smile, "Do you like this museum?" ”

"It's okay, it's quite magnificent,"

Although he has just entered the rivers and lakes, Jiangshan does not admit his identity as a little Luo Luo at all: "It looks a bit like a big hot pot." ”

"Hot pot?" Ma Chengyuan laughed: "It's a pity, this pot is too cold." ”

"I'm kidding," Jiang Shan played with a little bit of ink: "In fact, the overall shape of the Shanghai Museum is designed according to its treasure of the museum, Da Keding." ”

"I know a lot," Ma Chengyuan asked with a smile: "Then do you know what this bronze you painted?" ”

Jiang Shan replied without stopping: "He Zun." ”

Ma Chengyuan: "Do you know what respect is for him?" ”

Jiang Shan, who had just left school, was only interested in art design: "You know? ”

"Yu Qi is a Chinese house, and he is a righteous people," Ma Chengyuan said, "Chinese civilization has a long history and continues to this day, and as Chinese sons and daughters, we often ask: Why China?" ”

In the empty exhibition hall, the "He Zun" on the Jiangshan drawing board has finished writing.

Ma Chengyuan glanced at Jiangshan's painting: "You can paint this bronze, which provides us with an answer from more than 3,000 years ago." ”

Jiang Shan has realized the answer: "Yu Qi Mansion is China, and he is the righteous people?" ”

"Yes,"

Ma Chengyuan, who got up suddenly, took out a bunch of keys from his pocket:

"Young man, you are blessed tonight, taking the opportunity of He Zun to come to Shanghai Expo to exhibit, I will let you have a good look at the inscription where the word 'China' first appeared."

After speaking, after inserting a key and entering a string of passwords, the display cabinet containing the world's first statue was opened under the shocked gaze of Jiang Shan.

After that, the inscription cast at the bottom of He Zun appeared in front of Jiang Shan's eyes.

"You turned out to be ......" Jiang Shan was shocked: "The administrator of Shangbo? ”

"Awesome, right?" Ma Chengyuan stared intently at the inscription at the bottom of He Zun: "What are you still doing, hurry up and take your mobile phone out to shoot." ”

"Oh yes," Jiang Shan immediately took out Nokia: "Don't worry, I won't tell you about this." ”

"Then let's settle it," Ma Chengyuan said in a suppressed voice: "My rice bowl is just a thought away." ”

"Hmm!" Jiang Shan closed his mouth and nodded vigorously.

"As long as you can keep it a secret,"

Ma Lao locked the cabinet and glanced at the security guard who was walking by: "Tonight, I will let you see how the big man visits the museum......
