Zhou Fansen received a list of items that the guests would auction and donate before the charity gala started, and his assistant reminded him that two things seemed to be heavy, namely the two paintings that Xie Lin and Zhu Xin were going to bid for.

"Boss, these two are going to take pictures of Wang Meng's paintings of the Yuan Dynasty. Although they are not the same one, there are not many works handed down by Wang Meng, and most of them are hidden in the museum. This time it is such a coincidence that both of them got it. For the paintings left by Wang Meng, do we need to say hello to them in advance, so as not to make mistakes at the auction dinner.”

"This Zhu Xin is quite popular recently. I heard that he has a good relationship with the Bai family?" Zhou Fansen searched for Bai Chenrui's name, but he didn't see anything on the list, "Bai Chenrui still won't come this year. ?”

"Mr. Bai will enter the venue with Zhu Xin. He has already confirmed with us. He still doesn't participate in the auction and donates directly." The assistant also has a list of donations in his hand. Some people just don't like the excitement, so they don't bid. It's all done by writing a check directly.It can't be said that they don't give face, and they are said not to give face after giving money. How embarrassing are you.

Zhou Fansen thought about it, he thought the charity auction tomorrow would be fun. "Then tell Mr. Zhu that this is his first time attending my party, let him prepare and tell him that there will be a second painting of Wang Meng in this auction. As for Xie Lin, forget it, he will come too Since he is an old man, I am afraid that he will not feel new, so it is better to give him some surprises this time."

The assistant answered with a serious face, but in his heart he was complaining about his black-bellied boss.This is definitely bullying and fearing the hard. For Xie Lin, I'm afraid it's not a surprise but a shock.

**

Zhou Fansen's charity party was held in his private villa.Before the filming started, there was still more than an hour of buffet time for everyone to exchange feelings.However, during this period of time, no heavyweights will appear. If you want to talk to them, the dance banquet after the auction is the right time.There are some old rules in the country of Hua, and the important people always like to be late.

Because Zhu Xin and Bai Chenrui had jobs, they came over after eating, just in time for 10 minutes before the opening of the auction.Zhu Xin looked around, some people knew each other, some people had met their faces, and there were quite a few white-haired people in the pile sitting far away from them.

"There should be collectors there." Bai Chenrui briefly introduced, "There are two types of auction items, one is popular items, and the other is historical items. Some people will buy for a star Clothes are quoted at a high price, and some people will pay a high price for a blue and white porcelain bottle. Zhou Fansen has met many people in the collector field over the years, and they are all experts in calligraphy, painting, porcelain, etc. They can also appraise the things we brought today on the spot Once, and then you can get a higher price."

Zhu Xin nodded in understanding. In his heart, people who buy these two things are a little sick, especially when the price is many times higher than the value of the item itself, it is very sick.But if everyone is normal, such an auction cannot be held.It's not that Zhu Xin has no love for antiques, but that he himself is an antique, and he really can't empathize with it.

"The following is Mr. Xie Lin's donation, a landscape painting by the famous Yuan Dynasty painter Wang Meng." As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, there was quite a commotion in the corner of the collectors.

Wang Meng was a figure in the late Yuan Dynasty and one of the four masters of the Yuan Dynasty. He made great achievements in calligraphy and painting. He was especially good at landscape painting. There will be an air of overlapping mountains and vast forests.

If you don’t understand the above, then I will give you a number intuitively. The last time Wang Meng’s work left behind by the people appeared at an auction more than 100 years ago, it was sold for a high price of [-] million yuan.Now you know that Wang Meng's energy is huge.

So the question is, is this painting by Wang Meng real?

The collectors were commotion, and the auctioneer also said at this time, "Mr. Xie Lin donated the "Beishan Thatched Cottage". Today we are also honored to invite Mr. Pei, a famous contemporary calligraphy and painting collector, to taste Wang Meng's paintings for everyone."

There was a commotion in the audience at first, and after hearing that the organizer had invited Mr. Pei, they immediately fell silent.

Pei Qing came onto the stage leaning on a cane. The old gentleman already had gray hair, but he was still in good spirits.His life is quite legendary, and it is said that his broken left leg was the result of fighting against antique counterfeiters.He has lived for more than 90 years, almost a century old, and has never missed a mark in the appreciation of calligraphy and painting.In addition to calligraphy and painting, he also has a lot of experience in collecting other objects, and he has never made a mistake in dating.

Seeing this Pei Qing, Zhu Xin's eyes brightened slightly, he observed people's aura, most people have the same aura around him, Bai Chenrui is a special case, his constitution is heavy yin, and his aura around him is black mist.Pei Qing's body was surrounded by an extremely light green, although it was so light that it was almost transparent, but it belonged to the aura of plant spirits.

Zhu Xin heard about Pei Qing's legendary experience, and guessed that he had a different ability, such as perceiving the production age of items.

Pei Qing took a magnifying glass to carefully observe "The Picture of Thatched Cottage in Beishan Mountain". Xie Lin became nervous in the audience.He also asked someone to appraise it in private. Judging from the brushwork, it is very consistent with Wang Meng's early thatched cottage landscape style.

This time it was put up for auction, which was to use Wang Meng's name.It doesn't matter if it's not true, because the painting style is very similar, and it can be regarded as a masterpiece.You must know that there are only a dozen or so known paintings handed down by Wang Meng, how can it be so easy to obtain an authentic painting.Even if it is not an authentic work, but such a style can be determined, it can also show that there may be an undiscovered authentic work that has been copied with high imitation, which is also a record-breaking.

However, when things came to an end, Xie Lin was still nervous.He hoped it was the real thing, so that he could get a lot of attention.

A painting handed down from generation to generation not only has the inscription and signature of the artist himself, but also the seals of collectors of past dynasties.This "Beishan Thatched Cottage" also has the seal of the Ming Dynasty royal family, but it is the seal that is bad.

Of course Pei Qing also saw the seal, he finally shook his head, "This painting is not good."

Xie Lin's face collapsed, but he still stabilized, which was expected.When the media's cameras swept over him, he still smiled gracefully.

It's hard to say, these three words are more subtle.There is no 100% thing in the antique business. If you are not optimistic about something, you will usually use the three words 'not good', and you can also be a human being and keep a line so that you can meet again in the future.

Of course Pei Qing would not say it casually. He explained, "Everyone knows that Wang Meng was from the late Yuan Dynasty. Later, when the Ming Dynasty was established, he was an official for a while, but he was involved in the big case of Hu Weiyong in the early Ming Dynasty. Died in prison. Wang Meng's works can be divided into three periods, thatched cottage, study, and seclusion. With the growth of age and experience, his painting style has become more and more exquisite. This painting is similar to his early brushwork, just from the painting It seems that there is no problem, but there are some problems with the signature of this collection. Wang Meng's works did not receive much attention in the early Ming Dynasty. After Zhu Yuanzhang settled the case, who would dare to collect the works of a prisoner? The original seal here is the Yongli Year of the Ming Dynasty. The characters in the world, this is the biggest doubt."

What Pei Qing said is well-founded, and no one can refute it. Xie Lin would also like to thank Pei Qing for his guidance.However, Pei Qing also said that the style of this painting is very similar to Wang Meng's. Maybe there is such an authentic painting, and this discovery is worth recording in the calligraphy and painting collection.

If today's matter ends here, Xie Lin is of course very satisfied. He also provided materials for the media. Although the famous paintings are doubtful, they also provide valuable evidence for the study of Wang Meng's painting process.

However, the auctioneer's next sentence shattered Xie Lin's thoughts, "Teacher Pei, please stop, the following donation is also Wang Meng's painting "Mountain Hidden Picture", donated by Mr. Zhu Xin."

Xie Lin's eyes immediately turned into sharp knives and shot in Zhu Xin's direction free of charge.He couldn't help it, why did Zhu Xin get involved everywhere!He came here as soon as he came, wouldn't it be good to donate something else, if he insisted on donating Wang Meng's painting, what "Mountain Hidden Picture" sounds like a fake!

Pei Qing did not expect that there would be a second painting. The name of this work is somewhat different from the name of Wang Meng's usual works.However, Pei Qing only glanced at it, and he knew that it was an authentic work. Just like Zhu Xin guessed, Pei Qing had a little ability to determine the creation time of an object.

"This is exactly the same as his style in his later years, and it is a work of the same period as the existing "Linquanqing Collection" and "Qingbian Hermitage". Feel the scenery of mountains and forests. This picture even depicts a Taoist hidden in the mountains. In the bizarre and indistinguishable brushwork, the back of the Taoist is faintly blurred, and it also depicts Wang Meng’s leisurely retreat in the mountains. out."

Pei Qing seemed very excited. His hands were trembling while leaning on the cane, and he even offered a price on the stage, "I will offer [-] million yuan. This painting will be donated to the National Museum after it is photographed. Such a painting cannot be kept by the whole family. Let everyone see it!"

The auctioneer is also stupid, old man, don't get so excited, the way you look at this painting, just get along with each other.The wolf doesn't feel bad when looking at a beautiful woman, and your face is flushed when you see it.

Zhou Fansen did not expect that Zhu Xin's works would be caught by Pei Qing at a glance. He only knows a little about this aspect, but he also knows that these collectors sometimes have the same temper as children.

When the people below heard Pei Qing's words, they didn't think about whether the painting was 100% real. If it wasn't true, would you pay 4 million to buy it?However, there are not many rich and powerful collectors like Pei Qing, but there are many local tyrants in other fields.They had a good idea, and spent money to send a painting that Mr. Pei recognized to the museum, so that their reputation would be fired.

"5 million!" "6 million!" "6.5 million!"

The local tyrants below this box threw money, as if the money was ghost coins, all of which were of high denomination but not worth mentioning.

The atmosphere was completely heated up, and the flashlights of the reporters present kept flashing. Such a hot scene must be recorded.Both the social edition and the entertainment edition have written something.

The former reported that the original work of Wang Meng was sold at a high price of hundreds of millions, and the boss of ooo company donated him to the museum to contribute to the national cultural cause.

The latter was more bitter, they all drew up their own titles, "A charity party, two works of Wang Meng, one fake and one real, Xie Lin showed his own experience, it's not easy to play with antiques." ''Before the Golden Peony Awards, Zhu Xin and Xie Lin competed off-court. ''I'm not afraid of ignorance, but afraid of comparing goods, Xie Lin's embarrassing moments were taken nine times in a row. '

Xie Lin, who is an old man in the circle, certainly thought of such a topic, he couldn't keep smiling anymore.Zhu Xin's donated painting was finally sold for 6.7 million yuan.This is also today's standard king.

Everyone is very happy, some people get names, some people get benefits, except for Xie Lin, he is the poor man who is used as a reference.

After the auction, when Xie Lin saw Pei Qing talking to Zhu Xin, he felt even more angry. For Pei Qing, Xie Lin couldn't use the mocking mode, but he could treat Zhu Xin based on his seniority.

"I didn't expect Xiao Zhu to have such a collection. I thought everyone was someone who didn't know how to write and ink. After all, the circle is so busy with work, how can I have time to understand the collection of calligraphy and painting? I just got a donation from a friend by chance. Got this painting?"

It was sent by Bai Chenrui!definitely is!How could Zhu Xin himself have such paintings.Why didn't Bai Chenrui take it out for the shoot himself, but gave Zhu Xin this reputation? It's really unreasonable!

Pei Qing was talking happily with Zhu Xin.What is Zhu Xin talking about?He is very familiar with the painting "Hermitage in the Mountain", because the Taoist priest in it is an experienced Taoist!

Zhu Xin doesn't know how many years the old man has lived, but he was already walking around the rivers and lakes in the early Ming Dynasty. I heard him talk about it while drinking and talking nonsense, as if he still knew Liu Bowen.

There is also a small note on the cause of "Mountain Hidden Picture". Wang Meng left the article to the old Taoist, Zhu Xin also read it once, and the old Taoist put it in a certain cave in Kunlun.

Zhu Xin also quickly became close to the special Pei Qing, and the two hit it off regardless of the superficial age difference.

Xie Lin's words fell into Pei Qing's ears. It's not a good taste. You don't have many talents yourself, and you don't allow others to have them. This is unreasonable. "This guy is wrong. Xiao Zhu knows how to paint. How can you say that he is not proficient! Xiao Zhu, don't hide it today, show it to them."

The old kid was talking about Pei Qing. He heard Zhu Xin analyze Wang Meng's water-smudged ink, and he had become a confidant in his heart. He decided to use Zhou Fansen's party to let everyone know Zhu Xin's talent.

Zhu Xin was really wronged!Is he an innocent disaster?Although I was notified before that Xie Lin also donated Wang Meng's paintings, but everyone cares about their own, yours is fake, why shouldn't it show up?

Zhu Xin didn't want to do anything unnecessary at first, but now that the stage is set up, how can he not sing?

Pei Qing believed that Zhu Xin was telling the truth, he could draw and knew how to paint, so he had to justify his name on the spot.At the old man's age, everything else is false, but his reputation is invincible.

Bai Chenrui looked at such a magical turn, he was a little worried for Zhu Xin, he had never heard that Zhu Xin had such a talent, would it be okay to show it in public now?

Xie Lin stared at Zhu Xin fiercely, and made up his mind to make him look ugly today. Zhu Xin is so old, and most of what he can draw is to lie to Pei Qing.What people in the entertainment industry say and what they do often don't match up.Zhu Xin will be exposed later.

After such a fuss, the media reporters gathered around, and the good shows were staged one after another. They were the happiest.

The author has something to say:

[Note]: It is true that Wang Meng was a famous artist in the Yuan Dynasty, but the two paintings auctioned were fabricated by the author~
