Chapter 402: An enviable collection!
…………The Sino-Japanese Cultural Exchange Conference is a cultural exchange association initiated by the state and organized by the private sector after the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Japan in 1972. It is held every two years, and next year will be the twelfth one.
Like any exchange meeting between countries, the whole meeting is more of a show off than an exchange, especially between China and Japan. This kind of cultural collision is sometimes more intense than between countries.
"Okay, it's too early to talk about this now. I don't know if the owner is willing to take this painting to the exchange meeting?" After Mr. Zheng finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on Mr. Li next to him.
.
"Don't look at me, this painting is not mine!" The old man waved his hand, then pointed at Liu Dong, "Where is the real owner!"
Almost as soon as Mr. Li raised his finger, everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Dong, who was standing outside.
To be honest, being looked at with envy, jealousy and amazement by so many seniors in the industry made Liu Dong really nervous.
"Xiaodong, is this painting really yours?" Qi Lao asked with surprise, what most people were thinking.
"Yes, Mr. Qi! I got it when I came to the capital last time!" Liu Dong said quickly.
"You boy, you are really not that simple! Count the "Auspicious Crane Picture" by Xue Ji that I have there, plus this "Five Elements and Twenty-eight Constellations True Shape Picture" by Zhang Sengyao and "Xuan Yuan Picture" by Zhao Mengfu, one of the four masters of the Yuan Dynasty.
"Ten Sons Pictures", as well as seven authentic poems by Xin Qiji and Li Qingzhao of "Ji-Nan Er'an", these are all national treasures of calligraphy and painting!" Mr. Qi exclaimed.
After Qi Lao finished speaking, Liu Dong immediately felt that the eyes of these old men looking at him were ten times hotter.
Of course, he also understands that Mr. Qi intends to enhance his status in the collecting world in front of everyone. Although Liu Dong does not value this reputation, you have to admit that sometimes reputation and status do matter.
It can save a lot of things and bring a lot of benefits.
"If I let these people know that I still have in my hands the authentic calligraphy work of Dong Qichang's "Red Cliff Fu Album", the long calligraphy scroll "Lychee Fu" by Cai Xiang, a master of the Song Dynasty, the "Autumn Mountain Journey" by Dong Yuan, a master of the Southern Tang Dynasty in the Five Dynasties, and the "Travel to Autumn Mountains" by Dong Yuan, a master of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Huang Tingjian's long calligraphy scroll "Inscriptions on Pillars", which are national treasures of calligraphy and painting, as well as Tang Yin's "Spring Mountain Companion Picture", which is a slightly smaller but also a first-class cultural relic, Huang Binhong imitated the "Spring Mountain Companion Picture" scroll, and Shen Zhou imitated it
The long scroll "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains", Qiu Ying's "Pine Spring Discussing the Piano", Wang Shimin's "Farewell in the Changting Pavilion" and Wang Jian's "Landscape Scroll", I think they all felt like eating me alive.
!" Liu Dong complained in his heart.
"Okay, don't be jealous! If someone can get the treasure, that's their own skill. Stop staring!" After the most senior Mr. Qi spoke, everyone understood that his expression was a bit exaggerated, so there was a bit of sarcasm on his face.
However, many old men still looked at Liu Dong with disbelief in their eyes.
You must know that they are so old, and they have never bought an authentic calligraphy and painting that is a national treasure. But Liu Dong, at such a young age, already has ten pieces in his hands, how can he not make people jealous.
Especially Mr. Zheng, he secretly decided to go out of his way to persuade Liu Dong to hand over these authentic paintings and calligraphy works of national treasures to the Forbidden City, even if he spent money. After all, these things in Liu Dong's hands are national treasures.
, especially this long scroll of calligraphy and painting by Zhang Sengyao's "Five Elements and Twenty-eight Constellations". Its appearance has rewritten the history of modern painting, and it is enough to become "China's first famous painting handed down from generation to generation". It is a priceless treasure! Such a treasure is worthy of anyone's attention.
This is a treasure that everyone in the museum will covet.
"Xiaodong, the old man has a merciless request!" Qi Lao said.
"Please tell me!"
"The old man wants to stamp a seal of appreciation on this painting, do you think it's okay?" After finishing speaking, Old Qi's face showed a look of expectation. Being able to leave a seal on such a national treasure-level calligraphy and painting is undoubtedly the best thing for anyone.
The most exciting thing for a person who loves painting.
So when Mr. Qi finished speaking, the eyes of a dozen old men around him, including Mr. Li, lit up and their expressions became expectant. Many of them hesitated to speak, obviously they also wanted to make the same request.
Seeing the faces of everyone, Liu Dong smiled. Naturally, he agreed to such a request. He asked these masters in the field of calligraphy and painting appraisal to seal the calligraphy and painting, which undoubtedly proved that his painting was authentic, and invisibly furthered his reputation.
Enhanced the value of this painting.
You must know that the more promotions and seals in Chinese paintings, the higher the value of the painting, and it is an authentic work that has been passed down in an orderly manner.
"I naturally agree to Mr. Qi's request! But I have a better proposal!" After a short pause, Liu Dong continued, "Today, I would like to trouble you seniors to appraise this painting, and at the same time, I have witnessed the authenticity of Zhang Sengyao's original work.
Nowadays, it can be said to be a rare event in the world of calligraphy and painting, so I boldly propose that everyone seal this painting at the same time, and then Mr. Qi will take the lead, record today's events on this painting, and spread it to future generations.
!”
"Okay, Xiaodong's proposal is good, and the old man is the first to support it!" Mr. Li said with a smile.
"I just have to work hard to get old!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
"Haha, if this kind of thing is really hard, then I'm willing to do it a hundred and eighty times again!"
"Ha ha……!"
Everyone laughed at the same time. What an honor it was to be able to leave a seal on this painting that was destined to cause a sensation, and to have Mr. Qi, the first contemporary calligraphy master, do it.
With the suggestion of the master Liu Dong, everyone naturally had no scruples. As a master of calligraphy and painting appraisal, almost everyone is obsessed with calligraphy and painting. Although their skills vary, they all carry their seals with them. Therefore, Mr. Li used pen and ink to
After getting ready, Mr. Qi thought for a while and left a short poem of more than 100 words in the blank space on the left side of the scroll to record what happened today. Mr. Qi was the first to seal it, and then everyone also stamped it in turn.
, even Liu Dong stamped his seal on it.
As for Li Yuncong, although he also wanted to learn, the guy who couldn't even hold a brush didn't have a seal at all, so he could only drool next to him with envy.
"Liu Dongqing's appreciation! Xiaodong, this seal is well carved!" After Liu Dong was the last one to stamp his appreciation seal, Mr. Qi, who was sitting next to him in a wheelchair, praised him.
"Thank you, sir! I carved this seal myself, and my craftsmanship is very rough!" Liu Dong said modestly. With so many seniors in the industry, he really couldn't keep a high profile.
"Did you carve this yourself?" After listening to Liu Dong's words, Mr. Qi was stunned, because the square turtle button square seal in Liu Dong's hand was made of Hotan seed material, the carving was simple and elegant, and the knife skills were superb, although it was not
It's a masterpiece, but it's also a work of exquisite craftsmanship. Without ten years of carving experience, it's impossible to make a seal of this level.
"Haha, Mr. Qi probably doesn't know yet. Xiaodong was a carver before he learned appraisal. His exquisite jade and wood carving skills are far superior to his peers!" Mr. Li took the opportunity to say next to him. The old man regarded Liu Dong as his nephew.
At this time, it was natural to do everything possible to improve Liu Dong's status in the industry, not to mention what he said was true.
"Oh, I didn't expect Xiaodong to have such ability!" Mr. Zheng was also a little surprised.
“Today’s young people are really amazing!”
"yes!"……
Facing the admiration of everyone, Liu Dong was not only satisfied and proud, but also felt hot all over for the first time, and was somewhat embarrassed.
"Okay, Xiaodong! I see that the framing of this painting is already in bad shape. If you don't mind it, just leave this painting to the old man to frame it for you!"
"I'm naturally happy that Mr. Qi is willing to take action, but what about your health?" Liu Dong hesitated.
"Haha, don't worry! I know my body is strong. Although my energy is not as good as before, I can still frame this painting. It just takes a little longer!"
"It doesn't matter if it takes longer, I'm not in a hurry!"
"Then we've made a deal!" Mr. Qi said quickly. It just so happened that he could take advantage of the opportunity to frame it and take a closer look at this authentic work of Zhang Sengyao.
After hearing the conversation between the two, everyone around them showed envy on their faces, but they did not dare to argue with Mr. Qi. However, they also made up their minds to go to Mr. Qi's place more often in the future.
"Brother Li, I need you to put more effort into finding someone to come to my place, otherwise I, as an old man, will not be able to see this priceless national treasure!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Qi, this matter will be taken care of by me!" Mr. Li patted his chest and agreed. This matter may be difficult for others, but for Mr. Li, a veteran who founded the country, it is just a piece of cake.
"Okay, everyone, now that I've finished reading the painting, it's almost time, is it time to eat?" At this time, Mrs. Li stood at the door and said to everyone with a smile.
"My sister-in-law said, I'm really hungry!" Mr. Zheng said with a smile.
"You, after all these years, you still haven't gotten rid of your greedy habit!"
Faced with Mr. Li's teasing, Mr. Zheng said indifferently: "Food is the most important thing for the people!"...
After a meal, everyone ate and drank, and it took more than two hours before they gradually dispersed. After this meal, Liu Dong became familiar with these seniors in the field of calligraphy and painting appraisal, and their contact information was also left
, barely half a foot into the collecting circle in Beijing.
After sending all the old men away, it was not until six o'clock in the afternoon that Li Yuncong and Liu Dong drove away from Mr. Li's residence. As for the antiques Liu Dong brought, they all stayed there, and the old man would still play with them for a few days.
As for security, I'm afraid there is no place in China that is more heavily guarded than here.
