When He Qing raised his head, Mr. Zheng, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but ask.
The owner of the porcelain, Mr. He, asked anxiously: "Brother He, is there anything wrong with the things?"
At this moment, He Qing's face was calm, and no one could tell what was going on from his expression.
He Qing sighed softly, shook his head subconsciously and said: "Master, Mr. He, this piece of porcelain is wrong, but its origin is extraordinary."
He made a straightforward judgment and said there was something wrong with something.
"Is there a problem?" Mr. Zheng gasped.
After hearing what He Qing said, Lao He reacted even more strongly, his face suddenly darkened, his eyes widened and he said, "What's wrong?! You mean this porcelain is not authentic?!"
The results of He Qing's appraisal shocked him. In fact, when He Qing was inspecting the piece of porcelain just now, he was a little nervous. After all, he was very optimistic about the large pastel vase, and this was the final appraisal.
, is the most critical step.
Moreover, He Qing has a good background and his appraisal ability is obvious to all, so his opinion is very important.
I didn't expect him to come to a conclusion so quickly and bluntly stated that there was something wrong with the thing.
Faced with such a situation, how could Lao He not be surprised and frightened.
"Yes." He Qing nodded vigorously and replied solemnly, "This porcelain is not the pastel porcelain from the Qianlong period. It is an imitation. However, this thing is not simple, it is a high imitation."
"That's 'Zhu Fang'?!" Mr. Zheng said in surprise, "How could it be like this?! Isn't this such a coincidence?! Why do I keep running into 'Zhu Fang' lately?!"
Mr. Deng, who was standing aside, suddenly spoke up and said: "We rarely saw 'Zhu Fang' in the past. That was because our eyesight was limited and we couldn't see o. However, the 'Zhu Fang' we saw recently were all Xiao He's."
You can see it!”
"That's true." Mr. Zheng nodded in agreement, "But the frequency of 'Zhu Imitation' appearing is a bit too high, right? From this, it is not difficult to imagine how many 'Zhu Imitation' are mixed in the market. It's really
It’s getting more and more rampant, and it’s very harmful!”
"He Qing, is this...is this really 'Zhu Fang'?" Zheng Guanzhong asked in a trembling voice.
"Hey, I still got a punch in my eye after all!" Lao He said with a long sigh.
Mr. Zheng and others have already said that the exquisite porcelain in front of them, which looks almost flawless to the naked eye, is "Zhu Imitation". It seems that he has also determined that this is the "Zhu Imitation" that makes people fearful.
However, He Qing shook his head heavily and said in a deep voice: "No!"
"Not what?!"
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Zheng and the others were all surprised. They all looked at He Qing with puzzled expressions, not knowing what he meant by those words.
Since this piece of porcelain is wrong, it is an imitation, and it is a high imitation, then what is it if it is not a "zhu imitation"? Is it possible that other ordinary high imitations can't be seen at all by so many experts?
He Qing replied solemnly: "It's not 'Zhu Fang'."
"Then what kind of imitation is this porcelain?" Mr. Zheng asked in surprise.
Hearing his decisive answer, Zheng Guanzhong and the others looked at him with incredulous eyes. This was something they had never expected. It turned out that the matter was not as simple as they imagined, but there were other circumstances.
He Qing said calmly: "Master, you should still remember the time we went to the Jiangzhou Museum to visit the exhibition, right? Wasn't there a national treasure-level porcelain on display that time? It was a priceless plum blossom.
But unfortunately, it was later identified that it was not a genuine plum vase used by the Ming Dynasty emperor, but just a high imitation, but that high imitation has little to do with the 'Zhu Imitation'."
"Oh, I remember!" Mr. Zheng suddenly realized, "Xiao He, you mean to say that this fake pastel porcelain is not a 'Zhu imitation', but a 'Ming imitation', right?"
He Qing nodded and replied: "Yes, it's the kind of 'Ming imitation', from 'Fu Mingxuan'. So didn't I just say that? Although this porcelain is an imitation, it is unusual. It is a high imitation.
Treasure! You must also know that 'Fumingxuan' is a porcelain workshop in the late Qing Dynasty. The porcelain they make is so exquisite and lifelike that it can be mistaken for the real thing. 'Zhu Imitation' also has the same effect, but the situation is very different.'
Ming imitation belongs to 1st imitation. Now this craft must have been lost. What appears should be 1st imitation, and there are no new works. Unlike 'Zhu imitation', 'Zhu imitation' also originated in the late Qing Dynasty, but it still exists today.
The craftsmanship seems to be getting better and better, which can be seen from the many new imitation porcelains that have appeared. Mr. He, although your porcelain is an imitation, it can be regarded as an old antique. It has many possessions.
Great collection value!”
"Oh, really?" Lao He asked back. At this moment, his face was earthy and full of dejection.
"He Qing, how did you tell that? If it is a work of 'Fu Ming Xuan', then the imitation pastel porcelain is not far different from the original porcelain from the Qianlong period, so it is very difficult to distinguish, right?" Zheng Guanzhong said
He asked in confusion.
This is simply unbelievable. They have so many experts who have appraised the porcelain, including masters like Mr. Zheng and Mr. Deng, but they didn't see any problems at all. They all believed that the thing was genuine Qianlong pastel.
Porcelain, such a large piece of exquisite pastel porcelain, is worth at least tens of millions. But now that He Qing said this, the value of the thing has plummeted. It can never be compared with the real pastel porcelain.
He Qing's true ability in appraising porcelain and Zheng Guanzhong's had not seen it with their own eyes. They had only read about it in newspapers and heard other people talking about it. Only then did they vaguely feel that the other party was young, but he was indeed hiding something deep.
That kind of demeanor.
As the saying goes, "If you don't have diamonds, you won't get the porcelain job." If he didn't have complete confidence, how could He Qing be so sure? No matter how arrogant he was, he would not talk nonsense in front of his master for no reason.
At this moment, Zheng Guanzhong and Lao He had basically concluded that the porcelain was a fake, but they just wanted to get the answer and see how He Qing could prove the original appearance of the thing.
Just listen to He Qing say: "As you can see, this piece of porcelain is exactly the same as the real thing, whether it is the shape, glaze color, or even the decoration. If you look at it just from the external appearance, you can't tell.
It just happened.”
"Then there must be a reason, right?" Lao He asked in surprise, "Brother He, to tell you the truth, we have an identical piece of porcelain like this in the Palace Museum, which is also a pastel peony pattern plate-mouth vase.
It is a national treasure. I was worried because I found an identical piece of porcelain. Unexpectedly, it confirmed my bad thoughts before. I just didn't expect that it was a 'Ming imitation', not a 'Zhu imitation'.
.”
He Qing said seriously: "High imitations usually leave gaps. For example, the few pieces of Bolingdi Yuan blue and white that I recognized before have the code of 'Zhu Imitation' on them, which makes them easier to recognize."
Lao He frowned and said: "We have considered this before, so during the inspection, we looked carefully with a magnifying glass. We looked at almost every part several times, but we found nothing.
There is nothing wrong! Brother He, what can I say?"
He Qing smiled calmly, shook his head and said: "Mr. He, the defects must exist. Since they are not left on the surface, they are left on the inner wall of the porcelain. This situation is actually the most common way of making high imitations to make signals. Previously we
I saw leaks from several pieces of porcelain on the inner walls of the porcelain."
"Xiao He is right. Last time he smashed several pieces of fake porcelain at 'Rongbaozhai', some of which had defects left inside the porcelain. Most of them cannot be seen directly with the naked eye," Mr. Zheng interjected.
road.
"That means the leak can only be found by smashing this piece of porcelain?!" Lao He couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Well, this is the only way." He Qing nodded, "But you don't have to choose to do this. Anyway, it's your own collection, so just treat it as a genuine product. No matter what, it's still worth playing.
of."
"..."
Lao He stared blankly at He Qing, silent for a long time, as if he was in hesitation.
In the end, he was reluctant to give up and chose to smash the porcelain to find evidence.
At least he didn't do it right away.
Although He Qing did not clearly present the evidence, Lao He still admired him very much. The other party was confident and had put his words to the point. Next, he would only look at his own. If he didn't smash it, it would actually be pretty good.
Yu acquiesces to this fact.
In the end, He Qing and the others had no choice but to comfort Lao He.
Later, He Qing found out that he had found the famous pastel porcelain in the Baoguo Temple area for hundreds of thousands. At that time, he thought it was a genuine piece, but he picked up one with a big leak. Only now did he know what it was.
There's a big problem, it's a fake.
Fortunately, the things were not auctioned, otherwise his reputation would be completely ruined if others found out. But now only He Qing and a few others know about his eye-piercing, and others don't know about it, so he also
You don't have to worry about damaging your reputation.
After looking at the piece of porcelain and walking out of Lao He's collection room, not long after, He Qing suddenly received a phone call.
Unexpectedly, the call was from Fang Dechao's assistant Xu Wenguang.
What a coincidence that the call came. He Qing was trying to contact Fang Dechao so that he could confess to Fang Dechao about the "Skinny Gold Book" and "Wu Mu's Suicide Note".
"Hello, brother He, this is Xu Wenguang." After answering the phone, I heard a familiar voice from the other end saying, "You left in such a hurry this morning that we didn't even have time to treat you to a meal. If you
If there is still time, we would like to invite you to come over because there is someone who really wants to see you!"
He Qing agreed without hesitation and said, "I have time, so I'll go there later."
"That couldn't be better!" Xu Wenguang said in surprise and joy, "Then where are you now? I can drive to pick you up."
He Qing said: "No need for that, I already know the way, just take a taxi."
After agreeing with Xu Wenguang, he said goodbye and hung up the phone, preparing to rush to Fang Dechao's home.
But he didn't know who Xu Wenguang said was the person who wanted to see him particularly.
