My system is not decent

Chapter 984 Underestimating Chinese People

If it is a simple ceramics factory, Chen Wenzhe's factory, in this position, may not necessarily compete with other local factories.

Because of the different transportation and transportation costs, the price of the porcelain he made must be higher.

But it is different in antique porcelain, which requires technology.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that Chen Wenzhe’s factory is the only one in the South Vietnam market that can make antique porcelain, it’s just that the ones they make here are more primitive and more realistic.

The things are good, and the price is not too expensive, so they are easy to sell.

Therefore, with the shipment of batches of porcelain, Chen Wenzhe's factory became famous.

It's easier to do business when you become famous, and when the business grows, it actually attracts a large number of people, who gather around Chen Wenzhe's factory.

Now in Chen Wenzhe's factory area, on both sides of a road along the inland river, there are a large number of vendors setting up stalls here almost every day, and they are all engaged in the wholesale porcelain business.

"This is an emerging market, full of vitality!"

Walking out of the factory and seeing the bustling scene on the street outside, Chen Wenzhe was still full of emotion.

Antique stalls, snack stalls, itinerant vendors, and even a little further away there are stalls selling clothing, vegetables, and more.

Of course, the most here is to sell porcelain, and there are all kinds of porcelain.

Looking at the trend outside, if his side develops well, he might be able to bring up a large wholesale market.

We must know that in the early days of China, there were ancient ceramics wholesale markets, ancient jade wholesale markets, ancient bronze wares wholesale markets, and jewelry wholesale markets.

There is nothing strange about the name, but if you think about it carefully, you will find out, what is ancient ceramics wholesale?Isn't it a counterfeit business?

If those markets do not have the support of the local government, can they survive until now?

Thinking about it this way, Chen Wenzhe felt that he was just playing around.

As you walk and look, maybe there is a real piece of these antique porcelains?

Most of the dishes on the market are all kinds of dishes, even if some of them look like domestic crafts, compared with the domestic porcelain here, they are more weird in shape and more colorful in decoration.

Therefore, the returned cultural relics in China are still easy to identify.

Perhaps it is because there are more people like Chen Wenzhe, so there are counterfeit cultural relics returned from China, and the rate is not low, and it is increasing year by year.

"This is a real antique, not a fake!"

After walking a few steps, Chen Wenzhe heard an awkward Mandarin.

This must be Yuepu, the accent of the South Vietnamese is still easy to recognize.

I have to say that the country is indeed strong, otherwise how would there be so many people who can understand Chinese?

This is cheaper for the Chinese living abroad. It is much more convenient for them to live, study and work abroad.

Walking over, I saw a group of four people. They were obviously Chinese in their attire.

"I didn't say it was a fake, it's just that the price you want is too expensive, so I want it to be cheaper, and I want this pastel platter."

One of the middle-aged men, holding a big flower plate in his hand, said very confidently.

Chen Wenzhe squeezed in and saw that the plate was beautifully made, but what the man said was not accurate.

This big plate looks very gorgeous, but it is not pastel, but colorful.

The names of Wucai, pastel and Guangcai are different, and the pigments are also different.

The literature records are also different. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the book "Porcelain of China" made the difference between five colors and pastel more clearly.

Ancient colors and famille roses are collectively referred to as five colors.

Gucai is a traditional decoration in my country. The technique is single-line flat painting, and the color is rich and colorful without being dazzling. The pigments used are also local materials.

For example, soap alum (Chen is the best) is used to make alum red, a little bit of lead powder is mixed with alum red to make yellow, lead powder and stone powder are mixed with copper flowers to make green, and lead powder and stone powder are mixed with blue material to make purple.

The green color is dominated by Yangcui, followed by Guangcui, with alum red as the main color.

Pastel is based on the boneless painting method, and the raw materials used, in addition to the ancient colors, can also create several colors.

Such as carmine and Qiang water red, all made of red gold and crystal materials.

Its foreign green, foreign yellow, foreign white, emerald and other colors are all made of nitrate powder, stone powder and borax.

The difference mentioned above, one is the technique, five colors are single-line flat painting, pastel is a boneless painting method;
The second is the usage of pigments. In addition to inheriting the ancient colors, pastels have also created several pigments, such as carmine, Qiang red, ocean green, and ocean white.

The plate that Chen Wenzhe sees now should be an imitation of the colorful flower plate of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty.

Although the most famous one in the Qing Dynasty was the famille rose, the five-color porcelain was not bad either.

The picture of this color plate is compact and decent, and the flowers are painted vividly and naturally, which is more gorgeous and moving than the bright colors.

But compared with the real Yongzheng famille rose, the five colors on this porcelain are monotonous, red is red, green is green, and lacks a sense of hierarchy.

Of course, this is more than pastels.

Yongzheng famille rose, the picture is soft and elegant, because the famille rose is mixed with lead powder and added with glass white, the color is thick, the pattern is raised, the layers are distinct, and there is a three-dimensional effect, which is obviously better than the five colors, which is also the enduring prosperity of famille rose s reason.

This piece of porcelain is likely to be foreign trade porcelain, and it was sold in recent years, at most ten or twenty years old.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to do so poorly.

Well, it can't be said to be bad, it should be deliberately adapted to foreign aesthetics?

Only in the last ten or twenty years will such porcelain be produced, right?

It looks old, but its artistic value is extremely low.

The main reason is that even if this thing is returned to the country, it will not have much value.

Listening to the two people bargaining, anyway, both sides are laymen, so they can say whatever they want.

One asked for [-] RMB, and the other only offered [-].

Whether it's ten thousand or five thousand, it's not worth it.

In Chen Wenzhe's opinion, this plate is worth three to five hundred at most.

The main reason is that this is a large plate, and the decorations on it are very complicated, which is very labor-intensive!

Of course, the price may be higher in South Vietnam. After all, the bright colors are just right for the appetite of the South Vietnamese.

But in China, the eyes of Chinese people are not like this. Chinese people prefer soft and elegant, or plain.

After a few glances, Chen Wenzhe lost interest.

One of the two parties is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and he can't go to meddle in the voluntary transaction.

Continuing to walk forward, after only a few steps, Chen Wenzhe saw a relatively familiar booth.

No matter how you look at the things on this booth, they all look like domestic gadgets?
A water-filled copper shell, this is the so-called bronze ware.

There are also some modern works of art, which should be said to be factory products. Are these porcelains imported from China?

The items on this stall are not as good as the export porcelain just now!

But when he thought about it, it seemed that the things in front of him were also exported porcelain, but the quality was too poor.

Shaking his head, he thought that setting up a factory abroad to produce antique porcelain was already ahead of the times, but he didn't expect that people had already exported domestic dross to foreign countries, and he underestimated the people of the country.

Looking while walking, Chen Wenzhe finally found some fun in domestic Taobao.

"Is it foreign trade porcelain again?"
