Chapter 252 - Large Foreign Exchange Earners (Supplement)
Boss Lan's company is called "Lan Kwai Ge Art Trading Co., Ltd."
The company is located in the famous Lan Kwai Fong neighborhood.
Zhang Yang originally thought that this name was to inhale luck.
But Boss Lan explained that "Lan" was his last name;
The word "gui" in the name is to commemorate his deceased wife, the rich woman who left him hundreds of millions of dollars.
Before entering the real estate industry, he was just an ordinary stacker.
My biggest dream is to go to Tsim Sha Tsui to mix society.
Later, when he met the rich woman, the gears of fate began to turn.
"It's a pity that my wife left at the age of seventy."
"She made a will, and one of the clauses in it was, I can't marry again. Otherwise, she can't use a penny from her fund. β
"I can't touch other women, I'll take the money to flip the house......"
Boss Lan introduced his family history to Zhang Yang and was full of emotion.
"Looks like you're making a lot of money."
Zhang Yang looked at the art company like a small museum in front of him and said.
This is in Xiangjiang, where every inch of land is valuable, and the land alone is very valuable.
"How can you make money? It's all lost! β
"The tiles in the bathroom of Li Jiacheng's villa were all pasted at my expense."
"As for these things, most of them are my wife's collection, and I put them out as a faΓ§ade."
The direction of Boss Lan's finger was a row of bright display cabinets.
The most conspicuous place is a large water tank.
Yongzheng's blue and white vat, Jiaqing's pastel vat, Daoguang's blue and white vat, and so on.
These porcelains, even if a layman looks at them, can feel the heaviness, thickness and weight of traditional porcelain.
In addition to these large pieces of porcelain, there are also various types of jewelry and statues.
Boss Lan didn't waste time, went straight to the topic with Zhang Yang, and came to a gilded Buddha statue.
This is what he called "the same Buddha statue".
"Master Zhang, this is it. Wait a minute, I'll go get the keys. β
"Don't bother, I'll just look through the glass."
Identifying a Buddha statue still has to start, so I "open a glance" and only look at it to determine the truth or falsehood, isn't it a waste of fame?
Zhang Yang looked carefully into the display case.
As long as you don't blink, it's not a second look.
The Buddha statue is really wearing a hundred clothes, which proves that Boss Lan is not blindly touching porcelain.
This alone gives the similarity 30%.
But the open face is completely different from the 50 million Buddha statue.
The similarity of the open face is zero...... This is also a bit capable.
The open face of his statue is a bit like the Tibetan tradition of the Qing Dynasty and the Han tradition of the Ming Dynasty.
Taken together, it looks very modern.
Zhang Yang glanced at the production time of the thing and understood.
This is a handicraft produced during the period of earning foreign exchange.
It's not the first time he's seen something like this, so there's no doubt about it.
"This Buddha statue, if I look at it, should not be able to reach the Yuan Dynasty. There is still a little gap with the 50 million piece. Zhang Yang said very restrainedly.
"Is it fake?"
"It's not fake, but it can't reach the Yuan Dynasty."
"It's okay, I didn't pay for it anyway." Boss Lan is very open-minded.
He led Zhang Yang to see the porcelain that he thought was very valuable in his eyes.
"These are all antiques that my wife spent money on in the seventies and eighties, and she was someone else's wife at that time."
"I used to be under the umbrella of the Foundation, but I recently borrowed it and put it on display with me."
Zhang Yang looked at the fine porcelain in Boss Lan's mouth.
The most conspicuous is a set of four porcelain panel paintings, on which are painted the humble and cute national treasure giant panda;
There are pastel porcelain plates depicting a shepherdesss shepherding sheep in the steppe;
There is also a general's jar of pastel plum blossoms, on which is written in simplified Chinese characters "Yongmei......
These things are fake at a glance!
"Boss Lan, what is your main business as an art auction company?" Zhang Yang asked curiously.
Is online shopping going to retail?
"Of course it's calligraphy and painting." Boss Lan replied quickly: "I am still very accomplished in calligraphy and painting." β
"So porcelain isn't your main business?"
"Of course not, I don't know anything about porcelain. These were all just moved out of the warehouse last week. β
"Then it'll be fine." Zhang Yang nodded and replied.
"There is nothing wrong with that row of vats just now, it is a treasure in the middle and late Qing Dynasty."
"But these few pieces, I'm afraid ......"
Zhang Yang was halfway through his words, and after seeing the detailed information of the items, the words of handicrafts were instantly speechless.
Is this a craft?
The pastel plate, with the item information showing:
"Name: Pastel Prairie Shepherd Girl Pattern Porcelain Plate"
"Production time: 1955"
"Details: A porcelain plate made by Zhang Songmao, the first person in modern ceramics, was once exported as export porcelain"
Zhang Songmao is a figure who studies modern porcelain and cannot get around it at all.
He studied under Liu Yucen, one of the eight friends of Zhushan, and has always been a master of ceramics in official propaganda.
Zhang Songmao's works, in the domestic auctions in previous years, the starting price is one million.
The author of the general jar of plum blossoms, who is a little less famous, Ye Zhenjia, the master of "boneless color".
The starting price of Ye Zhenjia's works is only three or four hundred thousand.
And the porcelain panel painting with giant pandas is written by Bi Yuanming, the son of Bi Botao, one of the "Eight Friends of Zhushan".
The transaction price of the work should not be less than 100,000 at present.
These works were created when they were working at the Ceramics Research Institute during the period of earning foreign exchange.
It is a fine product in "567 porcelain".
When Zhang Yang received the porcelain plate painting before, he studied it by the way.
"Is it fake?" Boss Lan asked nervously.
"It can't be fake, because they didn't copy any existing works, they were completely new creations."
"A new creation, that's a new one!"
Boss Lan sighed, shook his head and said:
"I used to say that she didn't understand art, and she had to fight with me."
"It's good that I'm not in a hurry to go out of the exhibition, otherwise this face would be embarrassed."
Zhang Yang is not good at saying directly, how much can be sold for and how much, that is a bit of a trick for himself.
can only tactfully remind the other party:
"Actually, these are collectible ......"
But as soon as he said this, Boss Lan completely misunderstood.
"Master Zhang, you don't have to comfort me, I understand what you mean."
"These paintings are really good, and they can be turned into antiques after a thousand years of collection."
"But I can't put such a thing in my exhibition hall, so that people who know how to see it are going to be laughed at."
His last sentence, Zhang Yang couldn't refute.
Because if he didn't have a gold finger, he wouldn't be able to see the value behind these things.
This is also the reason why "567 porcelain" rarely appears on the auction market.
The bottom is written "Jingdi Town System", and the level is about the same, who knows if this is painted by Wang Bu (Blue and White King), or painted by Wang Laowu?
Unless you find an expert to endorse you, you have a chance to fetch a high price.
"You're not going to throw these treasures away, are you?" Zhang Yang asked.
Where to lose? I'll pick it up!
"Lost ...... It's too exaggerated, I'm going to find someone to do the porcelain trade, and sell it all. β
"That's ......"
Zhang Yang nodded and stretched out his right hand:
"Re-introduce yourself, honorary director of Hedong Group, Zhang Yang."
