Chapter 888

The rule of the party is 7:00 p.m. of course, the party tonight is mainly to get in touch with everyone's feelings, and there is no hard and fast rule about the time. However, it's hard to say if the elders are all here and you're still late.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Chu Chen thought that no one would come again. Unexpectedly, as soon as he thought so, he saw a gentle looking middle-aged man walking in with a smile on his face. He was followed by a young man in his thirties. He saw that he was still holding a brocade box in his hand.

As soon as the middle-aged man came in, he arched his hand to everyone: "it's said that all the seniors are here today to exchange their experience. I can't help but come here to listen. I hope you don't mind!"

Uncle Wu, sitting next to Chu Chen, quickly introduced him to Chai Pingle, the organizer of the exchange.

At this time, he said with a smile, "all the people who come here are friends. Mr. Chai, you don't have to be so polite."

Chai Pingle, as the organizer of this event, has come to an informal party. I can't help but push him out. Therefore, as soon as the sound of Yu's old saying came to an end, many people at the scene echoed and welcomed it one after another.

Although Chai Pingle used to be only responsible for the internal affairs of the company, he was also good at dancing. In addition, he knew antiques very well, so he soon became one with everyone.

Seeing this, Chu Chen also had to say "fierce.".

Most of you are in the antique circle, or with the antique circle. After you get in touch with each other, you begin to talk about the topics around the antique, such as some gossip, market analysis and so on. Chuchen benefited a lot from this.

After chatting about the surrounding topics, we began to talk about some experience in antique identification. Although we are not familiar with some of their unique skills, many of the experiences that need to be observed for a long time still make everyone here gain a lot, especially Qi Baofu and Fang Jinbo.

At the end of the exchange, Chai Pingle said with a smile: "Dear elders, I got a hand copied inkstone from Mi Fu the day before yesterday. From the stone quality and other aspects, it looks like an authentic work of the Song Dynasty. But after I bought it back, I always feel that there is a problem. I don't know if I can ask you to help me have a look?"

"Oh?" Everyone heard that it was Mi Fu's inkstone, and they were all interested.

Xu old temper is more urgent, directly said: "just say not to practice fake hand, since you say so, quickly take things out! How can we know if it's true or not without seeing it with our own eyes? "

Chai Pingle apologized with a smile. Then he took out the brocade box in the hand of the young man who had just followed him. After opening it, he took out a copy inkstone.

Hand copied inkstone is that the bottom of the inkstone is hollowed out according to a certain specification to form a space of low front and high back. The front end is connected with the two sides, and the three sides form the foot of the inkstone. The hand can reach in from the back and is easy to handle. It is said that this form was created by Su Dongpo in Song Dynasty. Because of its solemn and practical, it is popular from generation to generation.

Chai Pingle's hand copied inkstone seems to be carved from Laokeng Duanshi according to its shape, which is upright and elegant. There is an ancient poem inscribed on the back of the inkstone, which is named "Xiangyang MiFu". The inkstone looks deep in color, moist and ancient. How can it look like a genuine one.

Xu is always an expert in antiques and miscellaneous. After carefully reading this hand copied Duan inkstone, he said with a smile:

"if this is really made by Mi Fu himself, it's really a rare treasure."

Although Mi Fu was a famous calligrapher and painter in the Northern Song Dynasty, he was called "Mi Dian" because of his crazy love for stone.

Mi Fu and Su Dongpo are good friends. Once upon a time, Su Shi invited a guest. After three rounds of drinking, Mi Fu suddenly stood up and said to his host wrongly, "the world calls me 'Mi Dian'. Today, I'd like to ask Mr. Dongpo to say something fair. I'm not even a Dian."

But Su Dongpo replied with a smile: "I follow the crowd.".

All of a sudden, there was a lot of laughter. It turns out that these three words come from the Analects of Confucius. They are the original words of Confucius. Su Shi implicitly hinted to Mi Fu: you see, even Kong laofuzi has determined the nature for you. Who else do you expect to give you "vindication"?

Mi Fu's performance is exactly like his nickname. He once brought a strange stone into his apartment to worship, and dressed neatly to bow down to the stone. He still kept calling "brother Shi". From this, we can see how much Mi Fu loves strange stones.

Of course, Mi Fu loves strange stones very much, and he has also made contributions in this aspect. For example, appreciating strange stones, taking "thin, transparent, leaky and wrinkled" as the standard, is his first singing.

Just because Mi Fu loves stone so much, if Fang Duan inkstone is genuine, it's really as old Xu said.

Chai Pingle heard Xu say so, can't help but some disappointed asked: "Xu, you mean, this square Duan inkstone is a fake?"

Old Xu asked with a smile, "when did I say it was a fake?"

Chai Pingle was so happy that he asked, "what do you mean?"

Old Xu gave Chai Pingle a slightly calm gesture: "what's your hurry? There are so many people who haven't seen it. What kind of communication can I say?"Chai Pingle gave a wry smile. The thing was his. Of course, he was anxious to know the result, but today it was mainly communication. No matter how anxious he was, he could only wait.

Although there are many people sitting here, some of them are not very good at the identification of inkstones, so they just read it with others. Therefore, after more than half an hour, this inkstone came back to Mr. Xu.

Mr. Xu looked around and asked with a smile, "what do you think of this square inkstone? You young people, talk about it first

Mr. Xu refers to young people under the age of 40. There are six of them, including chuchen and Fang Jinbo, who want to keep a low profile. The remaining four are all silent. They are all the top parts of the antique circle. If they say wrong, they will lose face.

"You! They are all cowards

Xu Lao scolded with a smile, and then said: "Xiao Chu, you are the youngest at the scene. You can speak first. Be bold. It doesn't matter if you make mistakes. No matter who you are, you are not born to identify."

Chu Chen couldn't shirk his name, so he said, "let me just say something. If something is wrong, please correct it. First of all... "

Speaking of this, he went forward, took the inkstone to his hand, explained it, and then said: "so, no matter from the inkstone's system and technology, it is in line with the characteristics of the Song Dynasty. In addition, there are also coated pulp and old flavor, so that this inkstone really looks like a genuine one..."

"Very similar?" Hearing this, Xu interrupted Chu Chen and asked, "Xiao Chu, do you mean it's a fake?"

Chu Chen nodded and said, "it's true. Of course, it's OK to insist that it's an imitation. After all, it's very rare to make it so lifelike."

At this time, Chai Pingle gently frowned and asked: "teacher Chu, take the liberty to ask, what is the reason why you judge it to be a fake?"

"Because of its inscription and inscription."

Chu Chen explained: "the characteristics of Mi Fu's calligraphy are stable, not vulgar, not strange, old, not dry, not fat. The inscriptions on this square inkstone seem to have met these four requirements, but if you look at it carefully, it has no shape and no meaning. It can't be mi Fu's true work at all. In addition, it's the same with signature. "

After listening to Chu Chen, Chai Pingle felt that the word was no different from a genuine painting of Mi Fu in his family. It was really unclear whether Chu Chen was right in the end.

This is, Yu said with a smile: "Mr. Chai, don't look at it. You can't see the spirit of Mi Fu's calligraphy by your calligraphy and painting appraisal level."

According to Yu, Chai Pingle can only smile bitterly. It seems that his inkstone is a fake.

Mr. Xu was very satisfied with Chu Chen's answer and asked with a smile, "Xiao Chu, what else do you find besides what you said?"

Chu Chen replied: "in addition to the inscriptions, the biggest flaw of this inkstone is its material."

"Material?" Chai Pingle couldn't figure out what he said to Chu Chen, because no matter how he looked at it, he thought that the square inkstone should be old pit material, which should not be a problem.

Chu Chen nodded and said, "although the material of this square inkstone is very similar to that of the old pit, it is actually a new kind of inkstone discovered in recent years, named Shapu stone."

"Shapu stone?" Chai Pingle was very surprised. He had never heard of shapushi before.

Mr. Yu said: "yes, the color of this kind of stone is similar to that of Laokeng or mazikeng, and it has some unique stone products of Laokeng inkstone, such as fish brain jelly, banana leaf white, blue and white, and even stone eyes. If I don't observe and compare carefully, it's hard to tell the true from the false. I've almost been blinded with Shapu stone pretending to be Laokeng inkstone before. "

"In fact, this kind of Shapu stone is very good. A good stone can also make an inkstone handed down from generation to generation. Many inkstone masters also use this kind of material to mark xinkengzi inkstone. Everyone can accept it, and the price is also very high. But some people just like deviant ways and sell them as old materials. "

"Yes, I was ruined by shapushi a few years ago!"

A man in his thirties and seventies said angrily, "Shapu material has good material, and its color is very similar to Duanxi stone, so it's very normal to sell Shapu material to customers as pockmarks and pits in a certain place. I didn't know much about this kind of material before. All the mazikeng and kengziyan I bought were Shapu materials. I was cheated by those unscrupulous merchants for 50000 to 600000 yuan! "

Some people will ask, in this case, why don't men return the goods?

In fact, the reason is very simple. Since they sell so openly, how can they have no backhand? And once the money is in the hands of these unscrupulous merchants, it is extremely difficult to return it.

These people either use this kind of stone is far away from the old pit of the new pit of the material to prevaricate, or simply rogue, goods can be returned, but short of money! In this case, where do you go to reason?
