antique appraiser

There is still a problem with the ink in this book, but pointing out this problem so simply is definitely not what everyone wants to see.Wen Liyan had to find other details.

Feel free to turn the book over in its entirety and look at the back cover.

...It is not possible to give such a simple test question, right?The corner of Wen Liyan's mouth twitched, he just thought it was funny.But he remained calm and showed the back cover to everyone.He said: "Actually, the ink of this book is still problematic. Now, besides the ink, I will teach you another trick. In ancient times, all formal publications had corresponding barcodes on the back cover, as a mark, A famous book like "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" has a very small possibility that it is not an official publication, so as long as you see a book without a barcode on the back cover, you can basically tell that it is not real." Wen Liyan clicked on the back cover, which should have barcode, then pick up another book for comparison.

The camera gave a close-up.

When Wen Liyan talked about the barcode problem, other experts gradually turned normal. Wen Liyan's method of distinguishing the authenticity of books before was a method that they could hardly imagine. It was completely different from the orthodox method, which made these people feel It was quite stressful, and now that Wen Liyan had finally followed the usual way to distinguish the authenticity of the book, they felt that Wen Liyan was not too perverted, to the point where he was completely different from the mainstream but no one could refute him.

"The identification of antiques depends on the understanding and in-depth study of ancient culture. The more you know and the more detailed you are, the less likely you will be mistaken during the identification process." Wen Liyan said, picked up the fourth book, "There are some methods that seem impossible, but in fact it is very simple to judge the authenticity of an object, just like I just used the sense of touch and smell to judge the authenticity of a book, and the sense of taste can also be used to judge. "

"This book is already fake if it is judged only by the ink, but we can also use very special methods to try." Wen Liyan opened a page at random, and then licked the corner of the page with the tip of his tongue , shook his head: "The taste is slightly sweet, which is a unique characteristic of paper in our era, and the paper used in real ancient books, if you taste it, will have a slight bitter taste."

"Fakes may make the appearance of an object very similar to the real antiques, but in fact, its essence is not a product of that era, and many of the characteristics of that era will not exist. The fake items of our era, in terms of material There are natural differences from ancient objects, and few can be completely imitated together with materials. After all, there are environmental protection regulations. Those materials that destroy the environment like ancient times will cost a lot of money to manufacture. Sometimes they follow ancient craftsmanship. The profit that can be obtained after making an object can only make the counterfeiter lose everything. It is also the same. It is very difficult to fake from the material, so it is the most convenient and quick to identify the authenticity of an item through the material. .”

As Wen Liyan said, he put down the book in his hand, and there was a burst of applause - from the invited audience, from the host Luan Ge, and even from other experts.

The difference between Wen Liyan and everyone else is that he was not a person of this era from the very beginning, so he is very sensitive to the difference between this era and the era he lives in. Those subtle differences will not be noticed by ordinary people, but It is these details that can play a big role in the identification paper of antiques.So Wen Liyan never worried that there would be someone in the antique industry who would have more identification means and methods than him.

Qu Jingshui clapped her hands, then rested her fingers on her chin, watching Wen Liyan think about something.

Judging from the current situation, Wen Liyan has done a very good job in this kind of appraisal in public. I am afraid that Wen Liyan will become famous after this episode. There are various methods of appraisal. It seems that he has a hand in everything. He speaks the truth.Those who don't know much about the antique industry but want to enter the industry are the easiest to trust. Perhaps in the future, Guangyuanhang's performance will increase a lot.

Since Wen Liyan has the qualifications in this area, how about letting him play more?

Just like this, it is not on TV, but in real life to carry out an appraisal activity and receive people from Antique Street. This way, on the one hand, it can build up the reputation of Guangyuanhang, and on the other hand, it is more conducive to receiving some good items.

Just Wen Liyan alone may not be enough...

otherwise?

"Su Ming, I suddenly thought of an idea." Qu Jingshui lowered her voice and said to Su Ming.

Originally focused on the stage, Su Ming, who watched Wen Liyan's endless identification methods, looked back with some reluctance, and nodded towards Qu Jingshui, "Please tell me."

"How about, you and I cooperate to let this show do several exterior shots? Directly set up spots in places like Antique Street to appraise the items brought by the public. After a few episodes of "A Collection of Treasures", it should attract a lot of people. Led by the program group, it should be able to arouse the enthusiasm of collectors and ordinary players in a region, and bring a large number of collections. Taking this opportunity, we can start the names of our respective antique shops, and also have Opportunity to buy some rare treasures that are not easy to get?"

This idea is very good, so Su Ming was immediately attracted. He calmed down, thinking about what can be obtained and what needs to be paid in this plan.This cooperation will definitely bring huge profits, so it is not a question of whether to cooperate, but a question of how to cooperate.How much should they each pay?And how to distribute the ensuing benefits?This is not a question that can be discussed in a short while, and Su Ming didn't expect to think through the details, he just answered first: "Okay." It was considered a finalized cooperation.

"Then, the Antique Street in the Tiandi District and the Antique City in the District are the must-see places?" Tiandi Xuanhuang is the code name of several major administrative districts in this era. The Tiandi District is here, and the district is Su Ming's territory. There is also an Antique Street. Similar antique city.Since there is going to be an event, it is natural to come in their respective sites.

Qu Jingshui continued: "Hold an event at my Guangyuanhang and at any of your stores, which can be regarded as gaining fame. I will definitely participate in it, and it depends on what you do."

Su Ming nodded, "Let's talk about the details later, let's watch the show first." He hasn't decided who should be the appraiser for this event, not everyone can say everything like Wen Liyan It is clear and interesting, but this is the style that ordinary people like. Only in this way can more people be attracted to enter the antique industry.

Over there, Wen Liyan continued his performance.

The fifth book was genuine, and was put aside by Wen Liyan for comparison with the imitations.

"Look at this book, all the details of it are perfectly imitated, but some details are ignored. It takes it for granted that the pages of the book are arranged from the beginning all the way down, but it ignores a special phenomenon in ancient books , the page numbers of these pages of the preface are calculated separately and will not be included in the total page number." Pointing to the page number of a fake book, Wen Liyan admired himself a little, he was able to learn from various small It is also a kind of kung fu to pick thorns in places.

Many previous experts picked out the real books and roughly compared the differences between the fake books and the real ones, and they didn't criticize one by one like Wen Liyan. People think that there is no point in Wen Liyan's appraisal, so that a group of audiences can't take their eyes off, staring at his every movement, listening to his every word, always feel that they are almost mature after learning these skills. Having hired a top expert, I can't wait to get a book to appraise it myself, and then attract a burst of admiration from the people around me.Or go to the antique market to search for ancient books, pick up a leak, find an ancient book that no one else recognized, and then resell it to make a fortune.

Many people started playing antiques when they didn't understand, and then lost a lot of money as tuition fees. These people are also an important reason for the prosperity of the antique market.Wen Liyan inadvertently attracted more people who felt that they still had a little discernment to the antique market.

"There are so many tricks in the appraisal of a book, even I want to learn from Mr. Wen." Su Ming said softly. He himself likes antiques very much, and he is also very interested in the knowledge of antique appraisal. It is of course very interesting for the author Liyan to appraise a book with so many interesting methods.

"Hehe, why not come to Guangyuan?" Just kidding, Qu Jingshui knew that Su Ming couldn't run under him just because he wanted to learn some skills. After all, their identities were equal. Arrogance is still there.

"Master Qu was joking." Su Ming smiled and responded simply.

On the stage, Wen Liyan was only short of the last book, and he appraised all the books here. Everyone was curious because of his previous appraisal methods. This time, what will Wen Liyan use? Interesting way to identify it?

Wu Ting also stretched his neck to look at Wen Liyan, he was almost convinced, who can identify the problem without any mistakes like Wen Liyan even if he knew the topic on the spot?Moreover, different methods are used for each appraisal, which makes people feel jealous, because the gap with him is too big, and they can only look up to each other.But no matter what, thinking of Su Meier, Wu Ting still hopes that Wen Liyan can make a fool of himself, at least, the last book, and don't ask him to come up with a special identification method.

Picking up the last book, Wen Liyan only felt that his thinking was extremely fast at this time, and his whole body was in a state of extreme excitement. Maybe it was because of his desire to perform in front of everyone?Or is it because of the satisfaction of being watched by many people?He felt that this feeling was very good. Everyone listened to his own words and was impressed by himself.

Smiling, Wen Liyan looked at the cover and back cover as before, and then raised his head.

"Everyone read this book," he said.
