Looking at the current auctions, most of the official kiln porcelain that has achieved high prices in the past ten years comes from the official kilns of the Qing Dynasty.
In addition, the high-profile porcelain caused by the difficulty in identification and appreciation of ancient porcelain stimulated the development of porcelain in the third generation of Qing Dynasty.
The Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty was an important stage in the development of Chinese porcelain. The porcelain body was harder and more refined than the Ming Dynasty, and the color was whiter. The glaze and the porcelain body were particularly closely combined, which was a great development and progress compared to the Ming Dynasty.
In terms of porcelain color, it not only inherited the previous colors, but also created new color varieties such as enamel color and pastel color.
Enamel porcelain is a kind of overglaze color that appeared in the late Kangxi period. It was an imperial item specially designed for the supreme ruler of the Qing Dynasty to enjoy. Therefore, enamel color porcelain during the Kangxi period is rare.
The most representative artifact that appeared in the auction house is the "Enamel Lotus Bowl with Carmine Red Ground Made by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty". This is also the small bowl with enamel color that is most similar to Meng Guangtao's small bowl.
The most recent time it was sold was at Christie's Hong Kong autumn auction in 1999, where it was sold for 11.3271 million yuan. You must know that this price was more than ten years ago. It was more than 11 million yuan at that time, but it is not the current price.
It will definitely soar higher, and it is normal for it to increase three to five times or even ten times.
Also, Han Kongque has studied all these fine enamel porcelains. Whether it is painting skills, pigments, or even firing techniques, they are not as exquisite as the yellow ground enamel porcelain in Meng Guangtao's hand.
Since others that are not as good as it can sell for 70 million, then there is no problem at all selling this one for 80 million. If it works well and some famous experts advocate it, it will be easy to sell for hundreds of millions.
Han Kongque also saw that Jiang Lin had the strength in this area, so he raised the price to the highest level.
Regardless of whether this transaction goes through or not, the biggest beneficiary will be Meng Guangtao. The fact that the four appraisers did not clearly say this is a fake this time is the greatest support for this small bowl.
With such a big show, even if Meng Guangtao's small bowl cannot be sold for 80 million, it is still very easy to sell for 50 or 60 million. After all, there are not many fools in the antique shop. What Han Kongque can analyze, others can also
Can easily think of it.
Although the price of 50 to 60 million is not low, compared to the final possible price, being able to buy it at this price is still a big mistake. It depends on whether the buyer has the strength.
Han Kongque's firm words made Jiang Lin's face turn ugly. What Han Kongque said was absolutely right. He wanted to lower the price, and others could naturally increase the price. Originally, 55 million would have been the most appropriate purchase, but now
, because of his little cleverness, the price became 80 million.
There was silence in the room. Of course, the people on Han Kongque's side couldn't speak, and no one on Jiang Lin's side wanted to talk.
Han Kongque made it very clear that in front of knowledgeable people, any cover-up is futile and ridiculous. Now no one dares to underestimate Han Kongque and his group.
"The price of 80 million is really too high. I believe that few people can afford such a large amount of money, and no one would spend such a large amount of money to buy a small bowl." Jiang Lin said.
"This is not necessarily true. Although several seniors have just said a lot about the shortcomings of this small bowl, this small bowl is made of yellow glaze. This is a color that can only be used by the royal family. But now, I really haven't listened.
I said that someone has collected such exquisite yellow ground enamel." Fat Liu, who had been silent for a long time, now spoke.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. There is no need to talk about this. Everyone here knows the value of this small bowl. Now it all depends on Mr. Jiang.
I believe Brother Liu should have told you the rules before coming here. The negotiated price cannot be changed. All you need to do is inspect the goods, sign the contract, and pay for delivery.
Now let's follow this process again. Since the goods have been inspected, it's all up to you, Consultant Bai, whether to sign the contract or not. Is the contract ready?" Han Kongque interrupted Fat Liu and asked Bai Yi to prepare the contract directly.
Jiang Lin was cornered.
Since you dare to quote a price of 55 million, you naturally have enough funds to buy something that you can only look at but not eat. What's the point of crying about being poor now?
Besides, there are more rich people in the world, and there are even more people who have no use for their money. Have you ever seen someone spending six to seven million for a virtual game character?
"I need to think about it." He couldn't make the decision on such a large transaction without authorization, so he naturally had to discuss it with his family.
"Okay, there is a rest room over there, why don't we discuss it separately?" Fat Liu said.
Seeing Jiang Lin and several experts approaching the lounge nearby, Han Kongque and others did not move.
Fat Liu raised his thumb directly at Han Peacock with a big smile on his face. Next to him, the third father and son of the Meng family were sitting on the sofa in a daze with silly smiles.
Han Kongque was not very excited. No matter how high the price was, the Meng family would benefit the most. Although his commission had also increased, four million yuan was not enough to make him lose his mentality.
Entering the room, Jiang Lin asked directly: "Mr. Qin, how are things?"
Mr. Qin was not polite and said directly: "Opening the door, the fine imperial porcelain of the late Kangxi period is top-notch in terms of painting skills, glaze colors, and craftsmanship. Such a delicate Kangxi official kiln enameled small bowl was not considered to be the best in the Kangxi period.
It’s unique and rare to see.”
"You rate it so highly?" Jiang Lin was surprised.
The man next to him, Mr. Li, said: "This thing is too perfect, that's why I haven't taken action yet."
"Yes, when I saw it for the first time, I was shocked by its magnificence. Although the price at that time was not high, I still didn't dare to buy it.
I didn't just want to suppress the price at that time, I really had doubts at that time, but now after you guys have appraised it, I regret it," said Qian Lao of Guci Zhai.
"Mr. Qian, is the price of 80 million too high?" Jiang Lin asked.
Qian Lao smiled bitterly and said: "The price is really hard to say. If what happened just now had not happened, buying it for 55 million would be considered a bargain. This is mainly because we suppressed the seller on the antique street. At that time
He went to several large porcelain stores, but failed to make any deals.
I heard that the seller’s quotation was getting lower every time. I didn’t expect that before we closed the network, your family showed up. It was because of your quotation that they chose to sell to you.
It can be said that you took advantage at that time. If we were in the antique business at this price now, we would never buy it because there is no profit. But you are different. If you need it, you can buy it at this price.
It’s quite appropriate to come down.”
"In other words, it is appropriate to buy it for 80 million?" Jiang Lin said.
Among the four of them, the only one with money is always doing business, so he replied: "You will definitely not lose money if you buy it for 80 million. If the operation is good, it is not too unusual to sell for hundreds of millions.
However, there is a cost to doing this, so if you buy it at this price, you can only say that you will not lose money."
"Well, I understand, please excuse me." Jiang Lin thanked him.
At this time, Mr. Zhang said: "Young Master Jiang, if you are not in a hurry, you might as well give them a try. After all, not everyone can afford such a high price. When they can no longer support it, the price will naturally rise."
Falling."
Jiang Lin shook his head without hesitation and said: "If we had chosen to let them leave from the beginning, we might have been able to lower the price, but that is no longer possible.
Just like that young man said, you four elders have already authenticated it, so you can't say it's a fake now, can you?
As long as you don't say it's a fake, it's obviously the real thing. With your appraisal, if we don't buy it this time, we won't have a chance."
"If your family really needs it, then buy it and don't suffer any consequences." Mr. Qin was the most imposing and said directly.
"Okay, just listen to Mr. Qin and ask the fourth elder to confirm again."
When Jiang Lin walked out of the room, Meng Guangtao and the others had returned to normal, but even those who didn't understand the situation could still see the joy on their faces.
Jiang Lin shook his head and walked towards them with a smile: "Brother Liu, you are so shameless. You invited this expert to slap your brother and me in the face!"
"Haha, I don't dare to ask someone to slap you, Young Master Jiang, in the face, but this time, Young Master Jiang, you will steal the chicken but lose the rice." Seeing Jiang Lin's look, Fat Liu knew that Jiang Lin had given up.
"You haven't asked me yet, brother?" Jiang Lin extended his hand to Han Peacock. At this time, he no longer regarded Han Peacock as Fat Liu's follower.
"The surname is Han, Han Kongque, a friend of Brother Liu." Han Kongque said.
"Haha, Brother Liu's friends are my friends, where does Brother Han go? You are really young and promising!" Jiang Lin sighed.
He received an elite education since he was a child. Although he has been exposed to antiques a lot, he still doesn't know much about them. In this major, this young man has the same confidence as Mr. Qin and others. This is really not easy.
"I really don't dare to accept your compliment. I am just an antique vendor, and I usually make a living by selling antiques." Han Peacock said politely.
"Brother Han is really humble. Being able to do a business of 80 million yuan is not something that any hawker can do." Jiang Lin said with a smile.
"It seems Mr. Jiang has made a decision?" Han Peacock also smiled.
"Naturally, you can't let go of good things. Let our company's legal affairs review the contract first. If there are no problems, we can sign the contract immediately." Now that the decision has been made, there is no need to delay. Jiang Lin agreed happily.
