Looking at the golden toad pointed by Liu Dong, Zhu Jun showed a trace of embarrassment on his face!
"Mr. Liu, I'm really sorry. This golden toad is a feng shui item used by our store to attract wealth, so we really can't sell it!"
"Not for sale?"
"Yes, not for sale!"
Listening to Zhu Jun's affirmative answer, Liu Dong's face showed a hint of disappointment. ※Reading w_ww.1>
Although the bronze sculptures in Zhu Jun's shop are all made by himself and are masterpieces of hand-melted copper crafts, compared to this three-legged golden toad, the quality is at least one level lower.
If we talk about it, the level of the bronze sculpture of this three-legged golden toad has surpassed the level of a master! Even if it is just a modern handicraft, if it is sold at auction, I dare not say one million, but two or three hundred thousand is still guaranteed.
of!
"That's such a pity!" Liu Dong couldn't help but shook his head.
"Hey, Junzi, I told you not to take out Old Man Zhu's things a long time ago. Now it's okay. Have you met someone with sharp eyes?"
Facing the ridicule from his old friend, Zhu Jun just smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying much!
The function of the three-legged golden toad is to attract wealth. If Bubai put it away at the counter, wouldn't it be in vain?
However, after listening to Fu Kun's words, Liu Dong was stunned. After looking at Zhu Jun carefully again, an idea flashed in his mind, and he blurted out: "Mr. Zhu, I wonder if you know Mr. Zhu Bingren?"
"
Zhu Jun was stunned when he heard this and said randomly: "Mr. Liu knows my father?"
"Sure enough!" Liu Dong secretly thought.
From Fu Kun's words just now, Liu Dong understood that behind Zhu Jun stood a father with a higher skill in bronze sculpture. A look at the book〓〓※※w□w Shuw read. And the domestic surname is Zhu, and then in the bronze sculpture
There is only one person in the country who can reach the master level in terms of skills, and that is Zhu Bingren, who is known as the "Bronze King of China" and the "World Master"!
Zhu Bingren is the only national-level arts and crafts master in the field of Chinese bronze sculpture. He created ten major bronze buildings in contemporary China: Leifeng Pagoda, Guilin Bronze Pagoda, Changzhou Tianning Pagoda, Emeishan Golden Summit, Hangzhou
*zhou Xiangji Temple, Dahongshan Golden Summit, Lingyin Bronze Temple, etc., are one of the most influential artists in the world. In 2000, they were included in the United Nations Development Program's "Twenty-first Century Cover Person" and commented: "Bronze Sculpture
Among the art masters, Mr. Zhu Bingren is worthy of being a great master."
Moreover, this fourth-generation descendant of "Zhufu Copper Art" is known as the "Father of Contemporary Chinese Copper Architecture". His original copper-melting art created a new genre of "melted realism" and created a new
The aesthetic, visual and artistic concepts are a subversion of existing art schools in the world.
When Zhu Bingren's "Lingyin Bronze Temple" was on display in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, the Japanese did not hesitate to steal his works. The four bronze statues of Samantabhadra, Manjusri, Ksitigarbha and Guanyin were lost for many years without any news!
Liu Dong deeply admires this bronze sculpture master who has truly influenced the world!
"I have heard the name of your father, Mr. Zhu, for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to meet him!" Liu Dong said sincerely.
"If you want to meet, it's not easy! You've found the right person if you look for the person in front of you!" Fu Kun said with a smile.
"This guy!" After complaining in his heart, Zhu Jun looked at the longing look in Liu Dong's eyes. Considering the other person's identity and close relationship with his friend, it was hard to say no!
"Mr. Liu wants to see my father, but I don't know why?" Zhu Jun asked after hesitating for a while.
At this time, Liu Dong didn't know that this was his opportunity, so he didn't need to wink at Fu Kun and said quickly: "I admire your extraordinary skills in bronze sculptures, and I am a collector. So I hope to be able to
Order several bronze sculptures from your father!"
This is Liu Dong's sincere words. Zhu Bingren's bronze sculptures rarely appear on the market. They are all produced for the Great Hall of the People, the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, government departments in various places, famous ancient buildings, and foreign governments.
, we consider more of the artistic aspect and don’t pay attention to material things!
There are very few opportunities to accept private orders from the outside world. People like Liu Dong who have no friendship at all. To read the book w―wcw￣.book 1 book k◆a book n◆s一h read u_.＿c︿cc except in the auction market
Actually, there is almost no chance to obtain the works of Mr. Zhu Bingren in private.
This time, he was able to get to know Zhu Jun, the fifth generation descendant of ‘Zhu Mansion Copper Art’, through Fu Kun, which gave him the opportunity to get his favorite collection!
Seeing Liu Dong's sincere words, Zhu Jun nodded after hesitating. "Since Mr. Liu knows Kunzi, he is no longer an outsider with me. Your affairs will be taken care of by me. But in the past few days, I
My father went to Guangzhou, and it may take some time before he can come back. Therefore, if Mr. Liu wants to order my father’s works, it may take a while for him to go online!”
"It doesn't matter. I will be in Jinling during this period. As long as your father comes back, I will be there as soon as possible!" Liu Dong, who was happy in his heart, promised quickly.
Later, Liu Dong took out his business card and handed it to Zhu Jun.
At this time, Fu Kun, who was standing aside, saw that Liu Dong's matter was successfully resolved, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, now that the matter is settled, it's time for us to leave! By the way, Junzi, would you like to go out with us to visit the antique market? This will save you the trouble of getting sick all by yourself!"
Facing his friend's invitation, Zhu Jun shook his head simply, "Forget it, you two go ahead, I still have a lot of work to do here!"
"You are such a workaholic! Liu Dong, let's go and let this guy continue to hold it in here!"
"Mr. Zhu, let's go first!" Liu Dong said.
"Goodbye! I will keep Mr. Liu's matter in mind, and when my father comes back, I will call you as soon as possible!"
"Thank you very much!"
"Okay, don't be nagging! Let's go!" With that, Fu Kun took Liu Dong's arm and walked out of the store.
"Hey, Kunzi, Fu Kun, don't you forget to take this bronze Buddha statue?" Zhu Jun shouted from behind.
"Put it at your place first, and then we can take it away together when we come back from shopping in the antique street!"
"This lazy guy!" Seeing the two of them disappear around the corner, Zhu Jun shook his head and turned back to his workroom!
"Where are we going now? Are we just strolling around like this?" Liu Dong said after leaving Zhu Jun's 'Zhu's Copper Workshop' and walking for a few minutes.
"Of course we won't just wander around. Let's go to Rongbaozhai's branch here first. There are a lot of good things there!" Fu Kun said.
"There are a lot of good things, but the chance of picking up a big leak is even less!" Liu Dong shook his head. Rongbaozhai's appraisers are very famous in the industry. After they have passed by, the chance of picking up a big leak is better than going to the antique street.
Much smaller! However, for those who don’t know how to appreciate, but like to collect, and have money in their pockets, Rongbaozhai is a good place for them. More than 90% of the things here can be
Fidelity.
"Picking up leaks? Do you think everyone is like you, a freak? Is it as easy to pick up leaks on Taobao as it is to eat and drink? Now, except for the ghost market, I don't even bother to pick up leaks when I go shopping in this antique market on weekdays.
idea. The chance is too low, and you can be fooled accidentally! Therefore, I would rather be cautious and buy something real. Although the price is a bit high, it doesn’t have to be auctioned. And with the current popularity of the antique trading market
, In a few years, the price of the same antique will increase by several percent. When the time comes, I will exchange the antiques in my hands and I will definitely make a lot of money!" Fu Kunluo said with some interest.
"I didn't expect you to be quite business-minded?" Liu Dong said with a smile after giving him a surprised look.
In fact, Fu Kun's choice is generally good! If Liu Dong didn't have the relic Yuanguang, he would also adopt Fu Kun's method. And although his method is not a huge profit, it is not as much as making money by picking up missing treasures.
But it is also a way to accumulate wealth, increase identification knowledge, enrich one's own collection, and almost guarantee a profit.
"That's right! If brother, I didn't like antiques, but entered the business field, I would definitely be a millionaire by now, a very rich man!"
Seeing the proud look on Fu Kun's face, Liu Dong couldn't help but shake his head secretly. Although the man in front of him was more than ten years older than himself, his personality didn't look very mature.
Liu Dong had just finished his thoughts when he saw a young man wearing a gray coat and carrying a snakeskin bag hurriedly out from around the corner.
Because Fu Kun's eyes were always on Liu Dong. Although he walked straight forward, he obviously didn't see this man who suddenly jumped out.
When Liu Dong saw it, his expression changed, and he originally wanted to reach out and pull Fu Kun away. But he never thought that the young man carrying the snakeskin bag was too anxious for some reason, and just as Liu Dong grabbed him
When Fu Kun grabbed his wrist, the man behind him had already hit his back firmly.
"Bang, ouch! Bang bang...!"
"Damn it, who hit me?" Fu Kun, who was supported by Liu Dong, finally did not fall to the ground. Otherwise, he was suddenly hit from behind without any preparation, and he would have been thrown into pieces.
They are all light!
In public, no wonder he was so angry!
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I was walking too hastily just now and accidentally pretended to be you. Please forgive me!" As the person who hit the person, the young man only received the reaction force from Fu Kun and took a few steps back.
After staggering, he did not fall. However, the snakeskin bag he had been carrying on his back fell to the ground. At the same time as a series of sounds came from it, because it was not sealed, several pieces of black wood were exposed from it.
come out.
The cross-section of the wood is very neat, but the surface is covered with dust and dirt, and even has lightning-like cracks. It looks unremarkable, just like the beams that have been used by farmers for many years and become dirty after being burned by smoke and fire.
However, the dark surface that occasionally appeared attracted Liu Dong's attention.
At the same time as his heart moved, Liu Dong originally wanted to get closer and take a closer look, but the young man who was knocked back had already grabbed the snakeskin bag and carried it on his back again. At the same time, it also blocked Liu Dong's prying eyes.
