Chapter 991

Chen Dewang said with a smile: "yes, Zhang ruitu is really famous for his calligraphy. But let me ask you, do you know what determines the price of calligraphy?"

Judd would never know such a professional problem because he knew his own business. Therefore, he shook his head directly.

Jia Decai's words and deeds almost make Chen Dewang impatient, but Chu Chen's human feelings have to be paid back, and he can only patiently explain: "the standard of the value of calligraphy works is mainly reflected in several aspects, namely, the level of calligraphy, the author's fame, age, scarcity, the source of works, and so on."

When Judd heard this, he muttered, "it's too much trouble, isn't it! The value of things depends on their fame, isn't it

Fame is a comprehensive concept, which includes the influence, status, personal charm and social recognition of works of art. The fame that depends on the influence of art works and social recognition is accumulated. The works of this kind of artists are obtained by relying on artistic creativity, and the market often has a long-term sustainability. However,

Chen Dewang sneered: "according to what you say, we can just compete for fame. What else do we need to practice calligraphy?"

It is true that there are many famous calligraphers who have achieved their fame by status or celebrity effect. For example, celebrities from all walks of life, officials, stars in the performing arts, or important leading positions in professional associations may love calligraphy for their personal interests, but their calligraphy level is not very good or even very poor, but they can still gain market recognition for a period of time.

That's because people buy their calligraphy to see their fame or power in their hands. But once they retire, or their status declines, or their fame weakens, their calligraphy works will plummet or even be ignored.

Seeing Jia's embarrassed smile, Chen Dewang continued: "let's talk about fame. Zhang ruitu's calligraphy is unique among calligraphers of all ages. There is no doubt about his calligraphy level. However, when he was an official, he took refuge in Wei Zhongxian, known as" Wei Jiage Lao ", and was finally dismissed by Chongzhen. His character can be said to be extremely unqualified."

Jia said: "it's nothing. After all, it's a matter of the Ming Dynasty."

Chen Dewang said: "the main reason why a painting and calligraphy work can appreciate in value is that it is sought after, but why is it sought after? It's only because the work is good and the author's reputation is high, but the reputation must be positive at least, otherwise even the artistic achievement of the work will be affected. "

"Take a simple example. If you are an official and someone gives you a piece of ruitu, even if it's worth four or five hundred thousand, will you feel comfortable?"

Jia Decai heard that Yan just wanted to say that there was something uncomfortable about someone giving him money. But if you think about it more carefully, Zhang ruitu was finally dismissed by Chongzhen, and the omen is not good. I don't know. How can I feel comfortable?

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "the book is like the person" in our country, and there has also been a saying that "the book should be discarded because of the person". Zhang ruitu was afraid of power and took refuge in Wei Zhongxian. He was a political loser. However, his achievements in calligraphy have been fairly appraised by later generations, which is really rare in the past and present.

However, it is undeniable that the value of Zhang ruitu's works is really influenced by his reputation. Many scholars complain that he is a member of Wei Zhongxian's party, which leads to prejudice against his calligraphy. As a result, his calligraphy has been recognized by later generations. Some scholars still dislike his works because of his character.

Moreover, people always like the good side. Even some famous literati have a bad ending, just like Tang Bohu, who lived a miserable life, but he at least retained the character of literati. However, Zhang ruitu is a member of Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch, and he always wears this hat on his head until his death.

For those who really love calligraphy, this point can be ignored, but for many Chinese who like "omen", at least when buying or giving gifts, they should consider whether it is suitable or not. This will undoubtedly affect the value of Zhang ruitu's works.

Chen Dewang saw Jia's silence, and then said: "in addition, there is another very important point that affects the value of calligraphy, that is, the quality and material of the works. This calligraphy work has been preserved in such a way that it is worth more than 200000 yuan! "

We should all know that the appearance refers to the integrity of the work itself. Material is the carrier of calligraphy works, such as paper, ink, seal and so on.

As we all know, the development of calligraphy is also accompanied by the development of materials. Calligraphy was first carved on oracle bone, wood and bamboo, then on silk, silk and rice paper. The same is true of ink. From cinnabar and pine smoke ink to later various kinds of characteristic ink making, they have different degrees of influence on calligraphy works. The development of seal is also magnificent, seal is also very important to the quality of calligraphy.

Under the same conditions, the better the appearance and the higher the material, the more valuable the work is, otherwise, it will be discounted.

The price of the emperor's calligraphy and imperial edict is quite high in the current market. In addition to the calligraphy itself, it also lies in the important historical value of the emperor's noble spirit and imperial edict. At the same time, the writing material is also an important factor.

Therefore, for the investment in calligraphy and painting collection, the preservation and preservation of works of art and the identification of materials also need to work hard, otherwise it will seriously affect the value of your works.Of course, there are some other accidental factors that affect the value of calligraphy, such as the buyer's preference for some calligraphers, emotional factors and so on. Therefore, the value of calligraphy works needs multiple considerations, not simple.

However, Chen Dewang would not explain these things to Jia Decai in such detail. It is not that he does not want to explain them, but that Jia Decai has always held a dubious attitude. In this case, a more detailed explanation is just a waste of words.

When Chu Chen saw that Jia Decai was like this, he was tired of it. Jia Decai didn't think about it. He and Chen Dewang didn't even know what the antiques were in his hands, so he could cheat him if he got along well? Moreover, if you really want to do that, you don't have to bother at all, just call the debt collectors, right?

Knowing that Jude is such a character, even if Chen Dewang asks, Chu Chen has to consider whether to help.

Now that Jia De is completely in the eye of Qian, he doesn't bump into the south wall and doesn't look back, so Chu Chen is lazy to say more and asks directly, "Mr. Jia, I don't know if you are going to sell this calligraphy work?"

Judd just full face heap smile, but falter and haw of speechless.

Chu Chen could understand his choice, so he pointed to the other two things and said, "OK, how much are you going to transfer these two things to me?"

Although this calligraphy work is one of the best among all Zhang ruitu's calligraphy works, it doesn't mean that Chu Chen can't find such a work. Moreover, because of his appearance, his value has to be discounted. Such a thing is really rare for him, so it's easy for him to give up.

Jia Decai scratched his head. When Chen Decai told him earlier that he wanted to give chuchen a discount on other things, he asked the value of Yuza and chuandai pot by the way. He knew that the two things together could be worth more than 150000 yuan, but he knew the price of things. It was difficult for him to decide how much discount he wanted.

More preferential, he was reluctant to give up, less preferential, he was afraid of Chu Chen angry, thinking, he could not make up his mind.

Chu Chen waited for a long time. Seeing that Jia had not decided yet, he didn't want to wait any longer. He said, "Mr. Jia, how about 150000 yuan for these two things?"

"Yes! Yes Jia Decai nodded and agreed. He thought happily that the price was what Chu Chen said. If he thought it was expensive afterwards, he could not blame himself.

Chen Dewang was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven when he saw Jia Dewang's promise. Does Jia Dewang think that Chu Chen's kindness to greet him is only worth one or two thousand yuan?

Chu Chen saw that Chen Dewang was ready to swear, so he waved his hand to show that it was unnecessary, and then said, "OK, let's sign an agreement."

The two sides signed an agreement, then went to the bank not far from the teahouse to transfer the account, and then Chu Chen directly resigned.

Watching Chu Chen go by car, Chen Dewang sighed. Originally, they said on the phone that Chu Chen would take part of the transaction money to deal with Jia Decai's debt. In this way, he could save part of the money and put it with him. When the time was right, he would return it to Jia Decai.

Now because of Jia's performance, it seems that Chu Chen doesn't want to take care of it any more. Moreover, he did not know whether Chu Chen would change his attitude towards him because of today's events, which made him feel depressed when he thought about it.

Of course, it's perfectly normal for Chu Chen to make such a decision. As the old saying goes, clay figurines have three points of anger. If it wasn't for Chen Dewang, depending on Jia Decai's performance, Chu Chen would probably leave without buying anything, and would call the money lenders to let them do it by themselves.

However, even if he didn't do so, he also asked people to pass on a message to the other party that they must charge interest, and the interest only needs to be in the law. Otherwise, Judd just heard that he didn't want interest. He didn't appreciate it. He didn't say it. He couldn't figure out what he would think!

Chen Dewang also knows that the root of this is Jia's responsibility, not to mention Chu Chen. Even he is not ashamed of Jia's behavior. Such a big man, don't you have any eyesight? Thanks to myself, I've been trying to help solve his problems. It's not worth it to think about it for myself.

Thinking of this, Chen Dewang took a look at Jia Decai, turned around and left with a cold hum. He was very disappointed with Jia Decai.

Seeing this, Judd was a little embarrassed, but he soon recovered. He stopped a taxi by the side of the road and was ready to get rid of the things in his friend's suitcase. Thinking that millions of dollars were waving to him, he was almost salivating.

He didn't even think about what to do if the results were consistent with those given by Chu Chen, because he thought how could Chu Chen, such a character, want a copy of the Republic of China? This is obviously impossible! As for calligraphy works, he thinks that he can sell them to people he likes. No matter how much the price is, it's higher than 200000 yuan.

When Judd thought about money, he was very good at calculating. If he could be a little more shrewd in today's matter, he would not have the miserable experience in the next few days. Of course, this is later, not to mention.
