I Can See Probability

At the same time, in an antique street in Mingyang City.

At this time, a man and a woman were in a store called [Juguang Pavilion], greeting an old man with black and white hair cordially.

The man was holding an exquisite box in his hand, and now he took out a long scroll painting from it, and slowly spread it out on the table.

Professor Lin, I'm here this time. I actually have a painting. Please help me to see it and identify whether it is real or not.

Beside him, a quiet woman was extremely beautiful in a chiffon top and a short skirt with hips.

At this time, he gently tugged on the man's sleeve, and persuaded in a low voice: Wen Bing, forget it, don't test it.

But the man was very persistent, and said to her: Don't worry, Professor Lin is an authority in this area, he can definitely tell whether it is true or not. After the results are obtained, it will make you feel at ease, otherwise outsiders will really think that I am lying to you .”

I never thought about it that way, said the woman.

I know you haven't thought about it that way, but outsiders can't be sure. No one can question my sincerity to you. Not even that kid, the man said.

At home, the man wanted to use this painting to curry favor with Song Yuchen, but was called a fake painting by a delivery boy. This made the originally good atmosphere become awkward after that.

In fact, Song Yuchen didn't mind if it was true or not, because in terms of quality, even if this painting was a fake, it could still be regarded as high-quality.

But Zheng Wenbing was very concerned about this matter.

So, he brought Song Yuchen to Professor Lin's place.

This Professor Lin used to work in the Capital Museum, and after he retired early, he came back here to open an antique shop.

In this respect, he is the absolute authority.

An ancient painting, if you want to know whether it is true or not, you are definitely right to ask him.

Wen Bing, have you had someone appraise this painting before?

Professor Lin was also very familiar with Zheng Wenbing. After watching for more than ten minutes, he put down the magnifying glass and asked.

Zheng Wenbing said: I didn't find anyone to appraise it, but... hey, don't mention it, you will get angry when you mention it. I asked someone to buy this painting at a high price from other provinces, and I wanted to give it to Yu Chen. But just now, a food delivery man took a casual look and said that the painting is fake.

Professor Lin said with a smile: A food delivery person said, do you take it seriously?

I definitely don't believe it, but this painting is my intention. If it is questioned, it must not work. That's why I found you and let you hold my eyes.

Professor Lin smiled: You are too serious.

Song Yuchen also whispered on the side: That's right, I also said not to use it for identification.

Zheng Wenbing said with a serious face: It's okay not to judge. I'm also worried that if you believe Yu Chen, my hard work will be worthless. And the kid just glanced at it casually. , and pretended that there are two doubtful points in this painting, in my opinion, this is completely nonsense.

Oh? What doubts did he mention? Professor Lin asked.

Zheng Wenbing also came to the side of the painting and said: He said that one doubtful point is that the painting technique is not right, and he said that there was hesitation in the transfer of the ink, but I see this painting, the brush and ink are flowing, so why is there any hesitation?

He also said that the paper for this painting was wrong, hehe, you said it was ridiculous, but just based on two eyes, you can conclude that this paper is not Qianlong rice paper, but Guangxu rice paper, which is simply nonsense.

Professor Lin kept a smile on his face, and didn't draw a conclusion right away.

Zheng Wenbing continued: Of course, I don't believe it. I'll have to let you, Professor Lin, decide what this painting is like.

Where did you buy this painting? Professor Lin asked.

I bought it from [Gangsheng Auction House] in Guanghai City, and there are all the certificates and receipts.

[Grossun Auction House] is also one of the best in Guanghai City,

It should be true, but this painting... is indeed fake.

Hearing this, Zheng Wenbing was taken aback, thinking he heard it wrong: Fake...?

Well, as you said just now, there are indeed problems with the technique of this painting and the paper. The material of the paper has such a small difference that non-professionals can hardly see it. And the technique is indeed very similar to the imitation, but This is only similar in shape, but not in meaning. As the saying goes, it is difficult to draw bones when drawing dragons and tigers. Between authentic works and fakes, there is often a lack of intention and bone. This painting obviously does not have it.” Professor Lin Say.

Song Yuchen was surprised when he heard this: Chen Jing also said that 'similar in shape but not in meaning', and said that this imitator does not have Xu Yang's free and easy sense of rustling meteors.

This... Zheng Wenbing was also speechless for a moment, Professor Lin, are you kidding me?

Being called false by Chen Jing, he can angrily scold.

But Professor Lin said it was false, but he didn't dare to scold him.

Because Professor Lin is indeed an authority in this field and a true professional.

From the perspective of counterfeiting, this is considered top-grade. Wen Bing, you are good at oil painting. It's normal that you don't know much about Chinese painting. In fact, if you are not a professional, you really can't easily judge the authenticity. Professor Lin said.

This... So, I was really deceived?

How much did you pay for this painting?

More than two million.

That's indeed a bit of a loss. This painting is worth a few thousand yuan, but two million yuan is not worth it.

After Professor Lin finished speaking, he also re-rolled the painting for him.

The domestic antiques are in deep water. If you don't understand Wen Bing, it's better not to buy them casually. How can there be so many authentic works in the world? But it is for you to learn a lesson by learning a lesson. It’s not bad either.”

Zheng Wenbing was stunned for a long time, but he didn't come back to his senses.

Looking at the painting on the table, he almost wanted to tear it up.

The painting bought for more than two million yuan is actually worth a few thousand yuan, just like what that boy Chen Jing said!

It turns out that what Ah Jing said is true. From this point of view, 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 who is the food delivery guy you mentioned? At first glance, this painting does look like the real one. I also carefully It took a long time to see the clues. And the person you mentioned was able to tell the authenticity of the painting just by looking at it twice, so that’s quite remarkable.”

Song Yuchen explained with a smile: Ah Jing doesn't deliver food, he's just a high school student, but what you said just now, Professor Lin, is really almost the same as what he said.

Professor Lin said unexpectedly: I have studied Qing Dynasty paintings for more than forty years, and I have such experience. The Ah Jing you are talking about is just a high school student?

Um.

That's interesting.
