Chapter 102 'A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains'

Chapter 102 "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains"

After pushing aside the guests and walking in, it can be seen from the furnishings in the study that Zhao Defa is a person who likes to collect and is very particular about his taste in life.

The spacious study room, which is more than fifty square meters, inherits the layout style of ancient Chinese literati study rooms. There is no shortage of the four treasures of the study room. The ancient shelves against the wall are filled with various antiques and artworks.

However, out of curiosity, after using his superpower to take a look, Liu Dong couldn't help but shook his head secretly, and said to himself: "It seems that Zhao Defa is called the 'taken advantage of' for a reason. At least among the antiques placed here, there are hundreds of them."

More than eighty percent of them are complete fakes."

"I didn't expect that Boss Zhao also likes to collect. There are a lot of good things here!" Li Yuncong, who walked in behind Zhao Defa, said with some envy after seeing the dazzling array of antiques here.

"Haha, Brother Li has won the prize! Although there are many things here, there are not many real ones!" After a pause, Zhao Defa smiled bitterly and said: "It's really embarrassing to say it. I originally wanted to buy this pair of Chenghua Dou this time.

Cai’s chicken bowl cup was made a treasure for me. I will be able to get rid of it when I say that I am collecting. I didn’t expect to meet a scammer again this time!”

After listening to his words, Li Yuncong said a little strangely: "If Boss Zhao wants good things, just go to the auction and buy one. I think whether it is Christie's, Sotheby's abroad, or Poly and Guardian in China, they

The final auction items all meet Boss Zhao’s needs.” After a pause, he said, “Besides, I think Boss Zhao is not short of the money either!”

Indeed! As the chairman of Huatai Group, Zhao Defa, who is worth several billion, is really not short of this little money, but in the final analysis, he is different from Mr. Li and Liu Dong. Collecting is just his interest. Compared with auctioning

At the meeting, he spent a lot of money to buy antiques that far exceeded their own value. He even enjoyed the hobby of picking up missing items on Taobao, or like today, buying his favorite antiques and antiques at a price far lower than the market price. Perhaps, this is also the businessman in Zhao Defa's heart.

The profit-seeking nature may be at work.

Seeing Zhao Defa wryly smiling and shaking his head, Li Laowei, who knew his hobbies and interests, smiled and shook his head and said: "Okay, we'll talk about these things later. Let's take a look at this painting first! Maybe it can be given to us.

What a surprise!”

Hearing this, Liu Dong was stunned. He said that the listener has a heart, and only he, who has a superpower, knows that this painting is indeed not that simple. Otherwise, he would not have made the effort to remove it from Fujita.

I took it from Ichiro's hand.

After hearing Mr. Li's words, Li Yuncong didn't ask any more questions. The four of them quickly came to the window of the study room, where there was a long mahogany table one meter wide, five meters long, and half a person high, standing quietly.

With.

With such a long table, although the entire painting cannot be spread out, it is enough.

At this time, the four of them were somewhat excited, and Li Yuncong untied the yellow tie on the scroll without waiting for anyone else's instructions, then placed it lightly on the table, held down one side and slowly opened it. Soon a pair of

Exquisite landscape paintings appeared in front of a few people.

"This is "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" by Wang Ximeng of the Song Dynasty!?" Before the painting in Li Yuncong's hand could be fully unfolded, Mr. Li couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing clearly what was in the scroll.

"A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is one of China's top ten famous paintings handed down from generation to generation. Everyone has naturally heard of its famous name in the collection circle. The entire painting is 51.5 cm in length and 1191.5 cm in width. It is made of silk, with green and green colors, and no stamps.

According to Cai Jing's inscription and postscript at the end of the scroll, it is known that it was written by Wang Ximeng. The work is in the form of a long scroll, depicting the continuous mountains and vast rivers and lakes. It is arranged in the mountains, on the slopes and along the water, decorated with pavilions, pavilions, thatched cottages, and long water mills.

Bridges, fishing, boating, traveling, flying birds, etc., are carefully depicted and vivid in mood. There are many scenes and various weather conditions. The composition emphasizes changes in density and density, and the momentum is coherent. The combination of hemp drapery and axe-cutting is used to express the texture of the rocks.

The veins and light and shade changes; the color is uniform and clear, with ocher in the middle of green, full of variety and decoration.

The artistic conception of the work is majestic and magnificent, fully expressing the beauty and magnificence of the natural landscape.

Of course, what everyone knows is that the famous "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is now collected in the Palace Museum in Beijing, and it is its treasure. It is absolutely impossible for it to be lost outside.

In this case, it is self-evident whether the picture in front of me is true or false.

"Damn it, I didn't expect this painting to be a fake. No wonder the little devil was so happy when he left just now. It turns out that he already knew that this thing was fake, so he didn't feel bad even if he lost!" Li Yuncong took the still thick scroll.

He threw it on the table and couldn't help but curse.

After hearing his words, Zhao Defa couldn't help but show a look of disappointment on his face. Only Liu Dong kept his face calm. Moreover, he was still bending over, admiring the unfolding landscape in the scroll with relish.

There was also Mr. Li who had the same action as him, but the old man was just appreciative at first. As time passed, he saw more and more pictures, and the expression on his face became more and more serious.

He even took out a magnifying glass from his pocket and looked at it carefully.

"Mr. Li, isn't this a fake of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains"? What's so interesting about it?" After seeing Mr. Li's actions, Li Yuncong asked in surprise.

"Quick, quick, Yun Cong, keep opening the painting!" The expression on the old man's face suddenly became more and more excited.

Looking at the expression on the old man's face, although Li Yuncong wanted to know the reason, he did not dare to be negligent at this time. He quickly followed the old man's instructions and slowly opened the scroll to the side. However, it had already moved away from the old man's hand.

Li Yuncong, who realized in his words that this "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" was unusual, acted much more gently this time.

Although the five-meter-long table is already very long, it still seems a bit short for the "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" which is eleven meters long and even longer if it is framed!

Without waiting for Mr. Li's instructions, Liu Dong automatically walked to the side and re-rolled the scroll that the old man had seen. Every time Liu Dong scrolled, Li Yuncong on the other side continued to show new pictures. With the cooperation of the two,

Next, it took the old man more than half an hour to put down the telescope in his hand, still unfinished, and let out a long breath. However, the old man's brows were still frowning tightly, and his expression was serious, as if there was something unsolved.

.

Looking at the old man's appearance and admiring the entire painting with him, Zhao Defa, who didn't notice anything strange except that the painting work was really good and that the original artist's imitation was lifelike and accurate, asked: "Mr. Li,

This painting is exactly the same as the "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" collected in the Palace Museum in terms of size, painting, and even the promotion by later generations. There is nothing strange about it!"

Of course, this question is also what Li Yuncong wants to ask.

After listening to what he said, Mr. Li's eyes still did not leave the scroll on the table, "What do you think of the artist of this painting?"

Hearing this, Zhao Defa couldn't help but look confused. To be honest, when it comes to Chinese painting, he knows nine things out of ten, but knows nothing about it. Therefore, in addition to feeling that this painting is good, what is good about it is fundamental.

I couldn’t explain clearly! So after hearing Mr. Li’s question, I didn’t know how to answer. So I had to freeze.

After not hearing an answer for a long time, Mr. Li seemed to realize something. He turned around and glanced at Zhao Defa, who was still confused, and Liu Dong and Li Yuncong, who were still staring at the paintings on the table with wide eyes, and couldn't help but shook his head.

Apart from him, there are really few people here who have studied calligraphy and painting, but he specializes in porcelain and is not very proficient in calligraphy and painting. However, as the saying goes, he knows everything, so Mr. Li still has his own way of appraising calligraphy and painting.

Experience.
