Jin Yutong

Chapter 105 Ma Lao's Warning

"There is no end to learning!" With emotion, Wang Zhiqing raised his head and said, "Students have been taught!" Now he is convinced. Not only is he convinced, but also others. It's really insightful!

While they were convinced, they suddenly realized that not only China has antiques, but also other countries have antiques. Before that, they really didn't realize this.

In fact, this is not the situation in the domestic collection world. Speaking of antiques, I'm afraid that most ordinary collectors will only think of exquisite domestic ceramics, magnificent bronzes and so on. Foreign antiques can't be imagined. Let them say which foreign country has those antiques, and Not much, of course, except for the mummies of some countries, Mona Lisa, scepters and so on...

Relatively speaking, in fact, calligraphy and painting are better. If you change other aspects of foreign antiques, it will be even more unpopular, and you probably know less. Not to mention ordinary collectors, experts like Mr. Ma probably don't know much about it.

The reason why this happens is that Chinese people are born with rejection. Due to cultural and historical differences, Chinese people inevitably have a gap between foreign antiques and works of art. Naturally, they cannot be interested in it and form a market.

In addition, there is a lack of professional appraisers in the domestic collection industry.

Domestic antique appraisers can be divided into three categories. The first category is related industries such as Mr. Ma and Wang Zhiqing, such as archaeology, history, etc. Although such majors are very close to antiques, they are still unprofessional. Most of them are amateurs, just like history majors. Those who study history do not necessarily understand ancient times. Although history major and antique major are very related, they are two different majors.

There are also people like Wang Zhiqing. Although he has a lot of research on calligraphy and painting, he is not professional, because calligraphy and painting should actually be regarded as an art major, which is not the same thing. If he is a professor majoring in art, he will definitely be able to recognize this painting at a glance.

The second category is that Liu Lei is just a collector, but he has played experience and class, and they are even less professional. Naturally, there is no need to say.

The above two categories have their own professions. Generally speaking, playing antiques and collecting can only be regarded as hobbies.

In addition to these two categories, the remaining category is professional appraisers or antique dealers. They are indeed professional, but most of these people are grassroots. Their knowledge is not high, but they are only explored little by little by experience, or their family is engaged in antiques, relying on the classics handed down from their ancestors. Their eyesight and experience may be very rich, but they lack a certain level of knowledge. Just like now, if they are asked to identify foreign antiques for the first time, it is really hard to say.

In a word, there is a lack of antique identification in China.

In addition to being convinced by the authenticity of this painting, when they looked at Chen Ran, their eyes also changed. Now they have nothing to say about Chen Ran's eyesight and what else can they say. Although they are not at the scene about the auspicious jade pendant of Longfeng, they just heard about it, but only the ancient in front of them Painting can make them completely convinced. Even Wang Zhiqing and Liu Lei's attitude towards Chen Ran has changed a lot...

There is no big or small knowledge, and the capable person is the teacher. Although Chen Ran has not picked up many leaks, every time it can make people deeply admire his eyesight, like dragons and phoenix jade pendants, like today's ancient paintings...

Of course, among the people, Guo Hai is the most convinced. If there were no outsiders present, I'm afraid he would immediately give Chen Ran a hug on the spot. Then say, damn it, buddy, you are really awesome.

"Sir, you said that this painting is a Japanese painting, but you have not yet valued this painting..." Just as everyone was convinced, a burst of laughter came, and the laughter came, which made everyone look at it one after another.

The first thing I see is a row of bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses. The first thing I see is this row of bodyguards, but what attracts attention is the twin beauties in front of a row of bodyguards. However, whether it is a bodyguard or twin beauties, they are ignored at this moment. It's okay to ignore the bodyguard, but for the twin beauties, I just glanced and looked away. Obviously, it's not easy.

And it is only a dwarf who does this. Although it is only a dwarf, no one ignores it. There is no trace of contempt when looking at the dwarf. Strictly speaking, it is even a little afraid. Of course, Mr. Ma and others are excluded.

Hearing the laughter, Chen Ran also turned his head and looked over...

The speaker is Zhu Feng.

"Little brother has good eyesight!"

Looking at Chen Ran, Zhu Feng stretched out his mother's finger and nodded to Chen Ran with a smile.

"Xiao Chen's eyesight naturally has nothing to say!" Before Chen Ran said anything, Mr. Ma replied angrily. He didn't seem to be interested in Zhu Feng. Looking at Zhu Feng, he hummed softly.

"The old man hasn't evaluated this painting yet?" Zhu Feng was not angry at all, but smiled.

"What are you going to do!"

Mr. Ma stared at Zhu Feng angrily and meditated. For a moment, everyone present also focused on Mr. Ma. Although it was clear that this ancient painting was authentic and may be valuable, everyone was not sure how much it was worth, and they also wanted to know its market value.

The rest are curious. Guo Hai and Chen Ran are different. Although this painting was received by Chen Ran, it is no different from Guo Hai. Naturally, he hopes that the more valuable it is, the better. Chen Ran obviously also wants to know how much this Japanese painting is worth. Although he is not short of money now, he Lacking a lot of money as a capital for Chen Ping to do business, a small fight, not to mention Chen Ping is not satisfied, even he himself is not satisfied. Besides, no one will get along with money, and no one will think that he has a lot of money.

Mr. Ma pondered for a long time and said slowly after a long time, "If I'm not mistaken, the cold mountain map received by Xiao Chen should be lower in value compared with the international market value of Chi Daya's early works before the formation of the Japanese Southern School. According to my estimate, it should be about 3.2 million. Of course, if it is sold to Japan, it may be higher. If it is auctioned in Japan, it will be higher!"

"2 million!"

Mr. Ma just quoted this price, and the whole audience suddenly sounded a cold breath. Even Chen Ran, his eyelids suddenly jumped, but fortunately, he was psychologically prepared. Although the price was higher than his estimate, it was not so high, and there was not too much shock, but I was surprised.

Guo Hai was stunned and stunned for a long time. He seemed to suddenly have a convulsion and slapped his thigh fiercely: "Damn it!"

"Brother, I don't know if you are willing to transfer this ancient painting?" Just when others were still surprised, Zhu Feng's smiling voice came again.

Chen Ran was stunned when he heard the words, and then turned his head and looked at Mr. Ma. This painting must be sold. It is a Japanese painting. Although he is not a angry young man, he will certainly not collect it. If he wants to collect Chinese calligraphy and paintings, he looks at Mr. Ma to see if Mr. Ma is right about this painting. Are you interested in painting? After all, this painting was identified by Mr. Ma. If Mr. Ma is interested, he will naturally give priority to Mr. Ma.

"Hmm! Little madman, I warn you that if you dare to let Xiao Chen suffer, I will ask you for advice!"

Mr. Ma understands this painting. It's not that he likes Japan. He understands it, but it's just the pursuit of academics. Academicism is borderless, but understanding is one thing. It's another thing for him to collect a Japanese calligraphy and painting. This is the same as Chen Ran's mentality.

However, although he did not accept the thought of this painting, he saw that Chen Ran heard Zhu Feng's words and did not immediately agree, but looked at him first, which made him very satisfied. From this action, he could undoubtedly see Chen Ran's character problem, which also made him appreciate Chen Ran more and think of Zhu Feng's reputation. Out of love for Chen Ran, he couldn't help warning Zhu Feng.

"Look at what you said, I don't have much ability, but I will never treat people with ability. This little brother's ability is to convince me. Even if you don't say it, can I still treat my brother badly?" Zhu Feng said to Mr. Ma with a smile, and then looked at Chen Ran: "Brother Chen, I will estimate this painting for 3.2 million yuan, and I will accept it for 3.8 million yuan. What do you think?"

Hearing Zhu Feng's words, Chen Ran shook his head almost without thinking about it: "Boss Zhu, if you like it, just take it according to Mr. Ma's valuation!"

He is not short of 600,000 yuan, so why do he owe Zhu Feng a favor?

As soon as Chen Ran said this, the people present looked at him a little differently. For example, when Mr. Ma, Wang Zhiqing and Liu Lei looked at Chen Ran, their eyes were full of undisguised appreciation. 600,000 yuan was more or less, but Chen Ran could refuse the money he picked up for nothing, not to mention anything else, at least It can show that Chen Ran is not a profit-oriented villain, or a cheap person.
