Chapter 19 Appraisal of Paintings
What!
Except for Xu Yang, everyone else was shocked.
How is this possible?
Gao Chengwen has identified it as a fake.
The young man had paid five hundred dollars from the stall.
How did it become genuine?
"President Tang Zhengqi, are you mistaken, how can this be genuine, I am not as good as you in identifying antiques, but this painting can still be seen, this picture is very blurry, and it is obviously a fake."
Gao Chengwen didn't want to believe it, this was the real thing.
And he's very reasonable.
How can the real thing be so blurry?
It's not that he hasn't seen Wu Daozi's real works.
Just last year, there was a store in the antique street, and I received an authentic painting of Wu Daozi.
The picture is very clear.
Compared to this one, it's a world of difference.
"I read that right." Tang Zhengqi said, "Boss Gao, your store has been open for more than ten years, and there is such a treasure delivered to the door, you can't even see it, you can only say that you are not good at learning." ”
Gao Chengwen took a deep breath and said, "President Tang, is this really the real thing?" ”
He couldn't accept it, if this was the real thing, then this time it would be a big loss.
Wu Daozi's paintings are worth at least tens of millions.
"Can I still lie?" Tang Zhengqi glanced at Gao Chengwen.
"It's not." Gao Chengwen hurriedly shook his head, "President Tang, I can't see it, and I ask you to teach me." ”
If he didn't understand the reason why he couldn't see it, he wouldn't be reconciled.
Tang Zhengqi looked at Xu Yang and showed a smile: "This little brother, I know that you must know the reason why this painting is blurred, why don't you explain it to us." ”
Xu Yang shook his head and said, "I don't understand much, I just think this painting is beautiful." ”
He didn't admit it, and he didn't bother to explain anything.
Tang Zhengqi seemed to understand what Xu Yang meant, and looked at Xu Yang even more.
If other young people were asked like this, they would probably be happily displayed.
Xu Yang is so calm, there are really not many young people like this.
Tang Zhengqi smiled and said: "Little brother, let me introduce myself first, my name is Tang Zhengqi, and I am the vice president of the Jiangcheng Antique Association, what do you call me?" ”
"Xu Yang." Xu Yang's name was reported.
Tang Zhengqi said: "Little Brother Xu, then you don't mind me talking about it, right?" ”
Although Xu Yang has the skills of a treasure connoisseur, it is the first time he has come into contact with antiques.
This Tang Zhengqi is the vice president of the Antique Association, so he simply listened to it and studied it.
Thinking of this, Xu Yang said, "Don't mind, please speak." ”
Tang Zhengqi smiled slightly, glanced at Gao Chengwen, and then said: "Boss Gao, what you just said is right, there is no problem with the rest of this painting, but it looks very blurry, and it doesn't look like the real thing at all." ”
Gao Chengwen nodded again and again: "Yes, that's it, it can mean that it is not genuine." ”
Tang Zhengqi smiled and said: "But this is artificial." ”
Gao Chengwen was stunned: "Artificially caused? ”
Tang Zhengqi nodded and said: "Yes, it was artificially caused, someone applied a layer of transparent paint on the surface of this painting, which caused the blurring of the picture." ”
"What?!" Gao Chengwen was shocked, "How is it possible, this transparent paint, painted on the painting, isn't this painting useless?" And I didn't see any traces of smearing. ”
Tang Zhengqi explained: "It's hard to see, if I hadn't read an ancient book recently, I wouldn't have found it, there was this kind of paint in the Song Dynasty, this kind of paint, painted on the surface of the picture, will form a thin film, and also form a kind of protection for the painting, but there will be a faint fishy smell, ordinary people don't know this, it is difficult to detect." ”
Gao Chengwen said: "President Tang, how can you prove that this paint has been painted on it?" Is it just the smell? ”
He leaned over to the painting, sniffed it, and found that there really was a faint smell of fish.
Tang Zhengqi smiled: "This is one of the points, I just said, this kind of paint is applied to the surface of the picture, it will form a thin film, as long as a small gap is made, just tear it off." ”
He looked at Xu Yang: "Little Brother Xu, I'm very happy, I can see Wu Daozi's "Hundred Beasts", can I verify it on the spot, can I tear off this film?" ”
If he does this, it is equivalent to him personally identifying this "Hundred Beasts", which is definitely enough for him to blow the cowhide for a while.
Xu Yang nodded and said, "Yes." ”
It doesn't matter who tears it off.
Xu Yang is not in the antique industry, he doesn't care about these, he cares about money.
As long as it doesn't damage the painting and doesn't affect his money.
Since the other party is the vice president of the antique association, he should not use any small means to destroy his painting.
"Thank you." Tang Zhengqi thanked him, asked Gao Chengwen to bring a knife, and carefully scratched the edge surface of the painting.
Subsequently, a hard tear was used to tear off a layer of film.
The whole painting feels different, it was blurry just now, but now it is very clear.
Tang Zhengqi said: "Boss Gao, see it." ”
Gao Chengwen muttered: "It's really a genuine work, I missed a real work." ”
He regretted it very much, why didn't he fight with Xu Yang.
If you fight with Xu Yang, maybe you can take it down.
You must know that Wu Daozi's paintings are worth tens of millions.
Even if Xu Yang saw that this painting was real, he wouldn't have that much money to buy it.
Looking at the clothes Xu Yang wears, he is very ordinary, and he is an ordinary person in temperament.
If you want to fight for yourself, you must have a good chance of winning.
It's a pity that such a work passes by itself.
No, it's not a passing by.
Instead, someone sent it to his own hands and pushed it out himself.
Thinking of this, Gao Chengwen couldn't wait to slap himself twice.
"President Tang, this painting is real, how much is it worth?" Zhao Yulu couldn't help but ask.
She cares most about money.
"At least tens of millions." Tang Zhengqi said lightly.
Millions?
Zhao Yulu was dumbfounded all of a sudden.
So, Xu Yang spent 50,000 yuan and earned tens of millions?
It made her feel hard to understand.
You know, I'm borrowing money everywhere to invest in stocks.
Even if you receive one or two million and make money, it will not exceed ten million at most.
However, Xu Yang already has tens of millions.
"Even if it's genuine, it's not worth that much money, is it?"
Even Chen Guanglei, the rich second generation, is a little dumbfounded.
Tens of millions, even if it were him, it was not something that could be taken out casually.
He is living in his father's company, receiving tens of thousands of wages every month.
The monthly living expenses are also given by my father, which is 500,000 yuan.
As for buying other large things, such as garages or something, I have to ask my dad again.
However, Xu Yang, a person he looked down on and ridiculed in every way, made tens of millions of dollars at once.
Subconsciously, he said this.
This is also why he does not understand the value of Wu Daozi's paintings.
Although he has learned some antique knowledge and has a certain understanding of the antique market, he really doesn't know how much Wu Daozi's paintings are worth.
Otherwise, he would not have said this, and he would have lost face in front of Tang Zhengqi, a professional, and also in front of Zhao Yulu.
