......... "Okay, Lao Zheng! You'd better save it, Xiaodong has just entered the world of collecting, and he has finally accumulated some good items, but I can't donate them to you!"
Hearing Mr. Li take over the conversation, Liu Dong was really relieved. To be honest, facing a figure like Mr. Zheng who is as big as Beidou in the domestic collecting industry, it is really hard for him, a junior, to say no. This is too disrespectful.
It gives people face.$().(w)(x).()Now that Mr. Li’s words are foreshadowing, it will undoubtedly be easier for him to speak.
"Mr. Zheng, thank you for your kindness. The things I have on hand are really nothing compared to the huge collection of the Forbidden City. And I plan to open a private museum in the future, and the collection I have on hand will be the future collection, so
It won’t be sold!”
Liu Dong knew very well that if the authentic painting of Zhang Sengyao's "Five Elements and Twenty-eight Constellations" is exposed today, it will definitely cause a nationwide sensation. By then, there will be an unimaginable number of people across the country who want to buy and collect this painting, and it will definitely
It exists at all levels, and there are definitely many high-ranking wealthy businessmen and dignitaries. If precautions are not taken now, and they all refuse in the future, they will undoubtedly create more enemies for themselves. This is obviously not what Liu Dong wants to see.
In addition, he does have the idea of opening a museum, but the collection is not enough and he has not implemented it yet.
"Haha, did you hear that? Lao Zheng, you'd better give up on this idea and stop thinking about cheating Xiaodong!" After listening to Liu Dong's words, the old man said with a hearty smile.
"Hey, when did young people nowadays become so ambitious!" After sighing, Mr. Zheng shook his head. There was a look of distress on his face. Obviously, the failure to achieve the goal this time made the old man feel a little unhappy.
.However, Mr. Li's status is here. What he just said once is enough, and it would be too much to say it again. Moreover, Liu Dong's reasons are also very sufficient, which completely dispels his desire to obtain precious antiques from his hands.
all channels.
"Xiaodong, opening a private museum is not a trivial matter, let alone anything else. But if you spend money, you will be young and old, so it is even harder to open an influential museum!"
Liu Dong naturally knows this. In China, private museums are still a new thing, and the legislation in all aspects is not very complete. Therefore, the operating funds of many private museums come from individuals, and because they do not have exquisite collections, they lack influence.
These museums are losing money. In addition, many museum operators are collectors and lack modern business management knowledge, resulting in operational chaos. Therefore, running private museums now is basically a thankless task.
"Why is it difficult? It's not difficult to do anything now. Besides, there are a lot of good things in Xiaodong's collection. I guarantee that the museum will be prosperous in the future!" Compared to Mr. Zheng, Mr. Li, who knows Liu Dong well, has to treat him better.
More confidence.
"Okay, don't stand around chatting anymore. Sit down! I've just prepared tea, pastries and more for you!" While several people were talking, the old lady had already called Li Yuncong from the kitchen.
I took out a lot of things for guests from the refrigerator and put them on the coffee table in the living room.
But before a few people could sit down, there was another knock on the door.
After Mr. Li opened the door, two more gray-haired old men walked in, talking and laughing. Then Mr. Li introduced Liu Dong, and then they sat down together, and soon more and more people came.
When people came in, Liu Dong and Li Yuncong temporarily acted as servants, serving tea and water to these people who were over fifty years old. There was no way, they were the youngest here.
"Grandmaster?!"
When Qi Gong, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was pushed into the door, everyone in the living room stood up involuntarily. Although, the people who could be invited by Mr. Li today were basically old men who had studied for half a century and belonged to the elders.
However, in front of Master Qi Gong, they are juniors, and Master Qi Gong is the real giant when it comes to calligraphy and painting appraisal skills. Almost all the dozen or so people here have been taught by him.
"Mr. Qi, why are you here today?" As a landlord, Mr. Li was naturally the first to greet him. Considering that Mr. Qi was not very well and his movement was not very convenient, Mr. Li did not call Mr. Qi.
Telephone.
"Haha, when you called, Yan Su happened to be a guest at my place. I happened to have nothing to do at home, so we came together today to join in the fun. Went uninvited, wouldn't we be unwelcome?" Mr. Qi said with a smile.
"You are so serious. I really want you to come. How could you not welcome me? Please come in!"
"Old Qi!"
"Grandmaster!"
"Old Qi...!"
Seeing the old man come in, the dozen or so old men in the living room all stood up to say hello, and many even treated the old man as disciples.
"Hello, Mr. Qi!" Liu Dong, who was standing behind, also said respectfully.
"Oh, Xiaodong, you're here too, haha, I'm really looking forward to today!" Liu Dong's "Ruihe Tu" by Xue Ji, which is still with him for mounting, gave the old man enough surprise.
.And today, when Mr. Li made such a big move to invite so many people, he obviously encountered some earth-shattering treasure. And seeing Liu Dong here, Mr. Qi also guessed that it was probably related to him.
"You are so polite, madam!"
After everyone greeted Mr. Qi, the old man asked: "Xiao Li, can we start now? To be honest, I am very curious now!"
"Yes, Lao Li, Lao Qi are here, it's time to take out your things and open our eyes!"...
To be honest, how could everyone not be curious about Mr. Li summoning them here with such great force. It was just that Mr. Li had been shirk-shielding just now and waited for everyone to arrive before they could start, so they had not escorted them until now.
"Okay, everyone, come with me!" Now, the dozen or so calls that Mr. Li made at the beginning, except for those who were not in the capital on business trips, basically all have come. Coupled with Mr. Qi's unexpected incident, the old man did not want to wait any longer.
mean.
However, watching everyone follow Old Li into the study, Liu Dong did not follow. Instead, he walked to Old Mrs. Li and said worriedly: "Grandma Li, please call the doctor first.
, I’m afraid something will happen later!”
These old men are generally over sixty years old, and several are even over eighty. Mr. Qi is nearly ninety years old. At such an old age, he has some physical problems. In addition, they have been engaged in calligraphy and painting all their lives.
According to the appraisal, for the authentic work of Zhang Sengyao's "Five Elements and Twenty-Eight Constellations True Shape Diagram" to be released, which is such a major event that can be written into history, it is difficult to guarantee that something will not happen in excitement.
Recalling the appraisal of Xue Ji's "Auspicious Crane Picture" in Qi's hometown, the old man almost fell ill due to high blood pressure, which still makes Liu Dong feel lingering fear.
"That's right, I'll make a call right now!" After Liu Dong's reminder, the old lady obviously thought of the risks involved, especially the excitement in Mr. Li's face when she saw the painting just now made her understand this.
The urgency of the matter.
Fortunately, this is Yuquan Mountain, and the medical conditions are definitely among the best in the country. Therefore, within a few minutes of the old lady finishing the call, a white medical vehicle parked outside the door.
At this time, Liu Dong was standing outside the door and heard a huge exclamation in the study.
Standing at the door, looking at the excited expressions of these old men, Li Yuncong scratched his head, "It's just a painting, are you so excited?"
From Li Yuncong's point of view, even if the original "Lanting Preface" is placed in front of him, he will not be too excited. Of course, if it can be sold for money, it will be different.
Liu Dong did not respond to Li Yuncong's words. Now he was extremely nervous, fearing that these old men would get excited and develop high blood pressure and cause trouble.
Liu Dong's worry was not unreasonable. Soon some people couldn't hold on. Fortunately, Liu Dong was prepared and had quick eyesight and quick hands to help him. However, the old man was just dizzy. He took some antihypertensive medicine and got better.
He turned a deaf ear to the doctor's suggestion to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination. He was unwilling to leave, insisting on admiring Zhang Sengyao's unique "Five Elements and Twenty-Eight Constellations True Shape Picture"!
The old man's temper is too stubborn and he is unwilling to leave. And at this time, no one who likes calligraphy and painting, or who likes calligraphy and painting appraisal will leave.
In the end, the doctor found a solution and had no choice but to let the old man do it. Fortunately, there were no further problems.
"Zhang Sengyao's "Five Elements and Twenty-eight Constellations True Shape Picture" is undoubtedly authentic. What's more rare is that it has been passed down in an orderly manner. Except for some insect infestations, it is very well preserved with no damage or stains. It is simply amazing! It can be said to be the most famous painting in the ages and a national treasure.
No doubt!" Mr. Qi's words dispelled everyone's doubts and confirmed that the huge scroll with a width of 45 cm and a length of 1134 cm in front of him is indeed one of the "Four Masters of the Six Dynasties", the famous traditional Chinese painting master Zhang Seng
Yao’s authentic work.
"It seems that Little Japan's theory is wrong. The "Five Elements and Twenty-eight Constellations True Shape Picture" is not two volumes, but a complete long scroll!" said an old man with a thin cheek wearing a gray double-breasted short coat.
"Well, not bad!" Everyone nodded.
"And with this painting, let's see how arrogant the Japanese will be!"
The fact that the copy of Liang Lingzan's "Five Elements and Twenty-eight Constellations True Shape Picture" is collected in Japan is an eternal pain in the hearts of all domestic collectors and connoisseurs. And almost every time China and Japan exchange, Japanese colleagues will take this painting
The arrogant face when talking about things is really annoying.
"Haha, yes! I'm really looking forward to seeing the wonderful expressions on those little devils' faces when they see this painting at the 12th China-Japan Cultural Exchange Conference next year!"
Mr. Zheng's words resonated with everyone present.
