Word by word, no mercy. With a thunderous strike, all the boats and oars in the audience were wiped out.
The collector immediately staggered back a step, and two other experts came up to argue.
"It's too frivolous to make a conclusion after only two minutes of reading. It's ridiculous! Are the appraisals of all institutions inferior to your eyes?"
"The glaze color and body of this lotus wash are exactly the same as those of the fourteen secret-color porcelain pieces from Famen Temple. The visual wonder of the glaze color 'coming out of nothing, as if it contains water' can only be unique to secret-color porcelain! The circle of dots on its soles
You must also know that there are traces of mud balls on the bottom, which are unique to secret color porcelain and have no traces of saggar firing techniques!"
If someone steps down, someone will support you.
"The level of appraisal is not based on age, but there are many authentic products that are good enough. Mr. Xiao has worked as a researcher in so many foreign museums that collect Chinese porcelain. He may have handled more treasures than these experts combined!" p>
"Teacher Xiao must have discovered this place where different secret-color porcelains are washed, so he rushed to stop it. This group of fake Confucian scholars refused to let me go. Well, now I'm going to make a fool of myself.
”
"You are also making fun of other people's ancestral heritage. Tell me, the Xiao family has been working hard to re-fire azure glazed porcelain for eight or nine hundred years from the Song Dynasty to the present. It has been passed down for generations. How can you let people make irresponsible remarks here! I
I can’t stand listening anymore!”
"Yes, whoever can fucking endure is a bastard!"
Two voices are stimulating and confronting each other in the current venue.
The collector continued to attack Xiao Xingyu: "Don't think that because you are from a high-end porcelain family, you have the right to draw conclusions here. If you make such an assertion today, you must present the real evidence!"
"Show me the truth! Have all of us lost our sight?" Some veteran experts were also filled with anger.
When Zhang Moyan heard this, he felt that the climax of the incident was coming, and turned on the recording on his mobile phone.
As the soldiers were fighting each other, Xiao Xingyu glanced in front of him, straightened his body, and said, "Okay, what's the reason? How many do you want?"
The whole audience was startled, including Zhang Moyan.
How many more reasons?
Is it possible that this is still available for you to pick and customize?
The experts looked at each other in confusion, and then the crowd started to boo.
"One, let's talk about one first!"
"One is so little, let's say three. From what Teacher Xiao said, there must be at least three or five!"
"Can there be seven?"
"You are seven, do you think there are seven flowers on one vine of Calabash Baby?"
Unexpectedly, it was still a multiple-choice question! The experts were momentarily stunned by the question and felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Xiao Xingyu smiled and said proactively: "To determine whether this lotus wash is secret color porcelain, the most rigorous way is to break it into pieces and take samples for analysis. Do you have any?... Since not, then no matter what technology is used,
, we can’t be 100% sure that it is secret color porcelain.”
The whole scene was solemn.
Xiao Xingyu continued: "You just mentioned the glaze color of this lotus wash, so let me talk about the glaze color. You said it is perfect and exquisite, and I admit it. But that's the problem! Compare it to the one at Famen Temple.
Secret color porcelain, don’t you think it seems to be even worse?”
"Before I saw the real thing, I always suspected that it was the effect of photography, so I must take a look at the real thing today. In my personal opinion, although the fourteen pieces of porcelain in Famen Temple are emerald green and shiny, their luster is slightly foggy, and this one
The brush wash is more transparent, which is beyond the reach of secret color porcelain!"
The words were loud and impactful, and the whole audience was shocked.
The air was so still that it seemed to be solid.
The general manager of the auction company pushed through the crowd and stepped forward, daring to ask: "Mr. Xiao, you mean that the reason why this lotus wash is not secret color porcelain... is because its glaze color is better than secret color porcelain.
?"
Xiao Xingyu bent his lower lip and said four words slowly: "This is number one."
First?
Everyone was shocked.
Is it possible that there are really first, second and third... until there are seven flowers on a vine?
If Xiao Xingyu just dropped an atomic bomb, then the atmosphere at the scene now is the desolate silence after the atomic bomb exploded.
Xiao Xingyu ignored the wonderful faces around him and said to himself: "I want to correct your two statements."
Someone immediately answered: "What do you mean?"
Xiao Xingyu raised a finger, half-rolled sleeves revealing strong arm lines: "I am not an expert in antique appraisal, because the meaning of antique is too broad, it includes gold and stone, bronze, porcelain, wood, calligraphy and painting, etc., and I
, I just have a little understanding of ancient ceramics."
Audience: "..."
"Also," he raised a second finger, "I can't be said to be the descendant of my old man at all. If our Xiao family uncles hear this," he smiled, "I will be at home in the future.
But it’s not easy.”
Audience: "..."
Zhang Moyan smiled, who is this Xiao Xingyu? He’s in this situation and he still doesn’t forget to talk about this. He’s too comfortable!
After expressing his identity, Xiao Xingyu took back his hand and spoke up to get back to the point: "Since you are talking about azure glazed porcelain, let's compare it with azure glazed porcelain. By the way, this lotus wash was originally from the palace in the late Qing Dynasty.
It flowed out, right?"
He looked at the collector.
"Of course! My grandfather purchased this piece of porcelain at a Christie's auction in the UK in 1977. All the procedures are in place," the collector said confidently, "You shouldn't have any doubts about the fact that an object can come to this occasion!"
Xiao Xingyu squinted at him and smiled: "I believe this. But can the celadon from the palace be endorsed as secret-color porcelain? I think it's the opposite. It proves that it absolutely cannot be secret-color porcelain!"
He was categorical, and everyone asked in unison: "Why?"
Xiao Xingyu said: "In the Manchu and Qing dynasties, the three emperors Kang, Yong, and Qian all loved porcelain. It was their top-down promotion of the porcelain industry that allowed a hundred flowers to bloom. They were also famous names in the past dynasties. Everyone who collects kilns, especially our Emperor Qianlong, not only collects them, but also likes to put a few royal inscriptions on some treasures. For example, a Northern Song Dynasty Ru kiln azure glaze skimming bowl is now collected in the Palace Museum. His poems and inscriptions are engraved on the bottom."

Xiao Xingyu paused slightly and chanted slowly:
"The secret weapon is still passed down to ancient Luhun,
Today, the pottery cave no longer exists.
Go and think about Yinzipu for a long time,
Why should we compete for beauty and imitate others?
He speaks in a normal way and is not a native speaker,
There are still nail marks on the feet.
The Yuanyuan cut has eliminated the monarch's way,
Playthings dare to forget Taibao’s words.
Qianlong, Dingyou Zhongchun, imperial title."
His voice was as clear as pearls in the transparent auditorium, like a clear spring pouring into the bustling world, bringing a clarity that lifted the clouds and revealed the sun. When he finished speaking, the voice seemed to be lingering in the air. Dangtuo lingering back.
Xiao Xingyu shook his head lightly: "Let me ask, if it is a rare secret color porcelain, how could it escape the eyes of three generations of emperor players? With the temperament of our Lord Qianlong, how could he not leave a few gold pen imperial approvals?"
Audience: "..."
"This is the second one." Xiao Xingyu added.
None of his opponents could utter a single syllable, their self-confidence was plummeting like a mudslide, and some even had a look of fear on their faces.
However, Xiao Xingyu had no intention of stopping.
"The word 'mi' in secret porcelain means 'tribute'. Judging from the experience of Famen Temple using it to enshrine Buddha relics, this type of porcelain was fired for the purpose of enshrining gods and Buddhas. In the middle of the Tang Dynasty, Master Xuanzang The feat of traveling westward to seek Dharma has been known to the world, and it was a consensus at that time that the so-called Western world where gods and Buddhas reside is ancient India."
He sounded like a commentator: "According to historical records, before the 11th century, ancient Indians used stylus pens to write on dry broad-leaved tree leaves, which is called Bayeux script. For example, the five hundred and twenty books brought back by Master Xuanzang There are six hundred and fifty-seven scriptures in total, all written on this kind of shell leaves."
As if returning from a distant time, Xiao Xingyu concluded: "So, as a tribute to Western gods and Buddhas, how can it be a daily necessities that need to be used with Eastern brushes - a brush washer?"
The whole place was in an uproar.
At this point, there is no need to say anything more. The dust has settled and the winner has been decided.
"Teacher Xiao! Which kiln does this lotus wash come from?" Someone couldn't help but asked.
