Riding the wind of rebirth

This is easy to say, but Lin Wanqiu's coming-of-age ceremony was more than ten years ago. At that time, the income of ordinary people in Hong Kong Island was only a few hundred dollars a month, and two thousand dollars was their income for a year when they were young.

It is even more unimaginable to switch to the mainland.

Thinking about it again, even if Zhang Zongxian made a mistake on this piece of porcelain, it was still made of Soviet materials, and Zhongming was still sure of it.

Two thousand dollars was probably the normal market price for fine Ming Dynasty porcelain in Hong Kong Island at that time.

Everyone congratulated Lin Wanqiu one after another. Obviously, this is the second important item in tomorrow's auction.

"Yeah, if I knew about this, brother Zhang probably wouldn't have shown this jar to my niece." Yang Yongde joked about Zhang Zongxian.

Seeing the people who Qingqing thought they had learned to recognize the dragon pattern, Zhou Zhi suddenly felt a prank: "Now, if there is a dragon pattern object, if it has a lin, no wings, two legs, a curly tail, and a passion flower in its mouth, then we What kind of dragon pattern should it be?"

"Huh?" Zhang Zongxian frowned suddenly: "Just now Xiaoyou Zhou said that those without scales and wings are Chi; those without scales and wings are Kui; those with lins and wings are corresponding; those with lins and wings are dragons."

"But a dragon should have four legs, three, four, five claws, and two horns. You have two legs, curly tails, and passionflower in your mouth. This..."

This is the difference between actual combat and theory. When Mr. Wang was giving lectures to Zhou Zhi, he also used this question to embarrass Zhou Zhi.

Sure enough, everyone was stumped again. Some said it should be considered a dragon, some said it should be considered a Kuilong, and some said that there should be no such thing. If there is, it should be counted as a new species.

Zhou Zhi said with a smile, "Su Mali green material has another feature, it is thick and thick, and there are rust spots all over it, which is called tin light."

Eiichi Anzhai suddenly said: "Yes, the tin light of this utensil..."

After speaking, he bent down again: "Looking at it from the side, the lower half of this Kuilong's body is covered with tin light, like thick scales. This is... the upper body is like a beast, and the lower body is like a dragon!"

Lin Wanqiu couldn't help being shocked: "Zhou Zhi, you haven't looked at this thing carefully, have you? How did you know?!"

"I know a little calligraphy and Chinese painting. Based on the knowledge of calligraphy and Chinese painting, I can infer how this dragon was drawn. Although it looks scaleless, the craftsman still drew the lower body of the dragon according to the drawing method of the horned dragon. Yes, but I used a thick brush to make the scales cover each other, making it look like a whole."

"According to the characteristics of the Soviet material, it is conceivable that the place where the glaze is stacked on the dragon's body will inevitably form the effect of tin light after firing, but these scales are covered on the emerald color of the Soviet material, and need to be carefully illuminated from the side. Only by observing can you tell the difference.”

"So this dragon has to be viewed as a Kui dragon, and the so-called 'scaleless' of the Xuande Kui dragon is actually caused by the thick brush used by the painter and the smudge effect of the Soviet material itself."

"The later painters were not careful enough in the imitation, so they painted it as no scales."

"To be able to put so much thought into a piece of porcelain, this blue and white piece must be an authentic piece from the Xuande Dynasty."

"This also answers the question just now. If we really find a dragon pattern artifact in the future, with a lin, no wings, two legs, a curly tail, and a passion flower in its mouth, then we should think it is a Kui dragon pattern. Moreover, the painters really understood the Xuande Kuilong painting technique, but without the Soviet material, they could not use the smudge effect of the Soviet material to create the magical tin-spotted scale effect."

Everyone gathered under the Xuande porcelain to watch carefully again, and looked at each other in blank dismay after reading it. Who would have thought that the ancients came up with such a mechanism? !

You can't say that, isn't there a monster in front of you who thought of it? !
Everyone no longer doubts Zhou Zhi's level of appraisal. Eiichi Anzhai loves porcelain the most. Before seeing this Xuande Kuilong jar, he was a little disapproving. After all, he did not have blue and white flowers in Yuan and Ming Dynasties. Now he is also a little moved .

Goro Sakamoto coughed quickly to remind him not to lose his composure.

Eiichi Anzhai's eyes turned to regret, the task of this auction is arduous, and the fragments of the "Dai Nikkei" are the national treasures of the island country, and we must concentrate our firepower to take them down.

If the Chinese people know that they gave up their country’s Tang Dynasty calligraphy fragments for a piece of Chinese Ming Dynasty porcelain, then when they return to China, they will really be able to apologize by cutting open their stomachs.

Zhou Zhi also expected this to be the case, so he generously showed the results of the appraisal to everyone.

He has already taken a fancy to this pot. As a partner of Haitong, he participated in the auction of Lin Wanqiu's studio in Hong Kong Island. There are many things that can be handled here.

Even if tens of millions of dollars are finally auctioned, there is no need to really give so much, at most a stamp duty subsidy to the Hong Kong Island Inland Revenue Department.

So he was not afraid of someone raising the price with him at all. Raising the price was to give Lin Wanqiu a chance to become famous, something he couldn't wish for.

Lin Wanqiu asked with a smile, "Do you have any objections to Zhou Zhi's appraisal result?"

There was no longer any objection, and everyone said that they had increased their knowledge today.

Lin Wanqiu said with a smile: "That night, I invited all the guests to our dinner. After the banquet, there will be a special car to take you to the hotel where you are staying. At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, there will be a special car to welcome you."

Eiichi Anzhai said: "We still have some questions to discuss with Mr. Zhou about the fragments of the Great Nikkei."

The bigwigs were stunned. You must know that they are all big collectors and have their own collection consultants, and the level of collection consultants is generally not low.

Version Goro should be both Eiichi Ataka's opponent and Eiichi Anzai's advisor, or one of the advisors is an art professor at Kyoto National University, and he competed with Eiichi Ataka for lots at the auction several times.

But as soon as "The Great Nikkei" came out, the two of them must have shared the same hatred with the public, and now Eiichi Ataka said that he would discuss the issue with Zhou Zhi, which is very strange.

I saw Sakamoto Goro's attitude towards Zhou Zhi before. On such an occasion, he could be described as rude to Zhou Zhi, but now Anzhai's attitude is so humble. Is this the legendary one who sings the red face and the other sings the bad face?

Zhou Zhi didn't think it was strange. Fear of power but not virtue is almost in the genes of this nation. In the past, the two of them probably wouldn't look at themselves directly, but now that they come out like this, it can only explain one problem—— There is a problem in strategy, and I hope to solve it through tactics.

What could be the problem?Only one possible, insufficient funds.

After the signing of the Plaza Accord, the island country also experienced five years of peaking. At that time, the whole country was ecstatic, claiming that it could buy the United States.

However, the economic bubble burst when everyone was happiest, and it has been three years since then.

In the past three years, the island country has also been thinking about countermeasures, reducing investment internally, curbing consumption, implementing financial mergers and industrial mergers externally, and beginning to realize large-scale industrial transfers, occupying overseas markets, and freeing up market space for domestic enterprises by the way.

The industry began to shift from the processing industry to the high-tech and high value-added electronics, machinery, and chemical industries, and the shipbuilding and automobile industries were launched overseas.

To put it nicely, this is an island country implementing an economic globalization strategy. To put it bluntly, it is called drinking poison to quench thirst.

If there is no miraculous rapid rise of the neighbors of the big eastern country-finally defeat their brands with local brands, such as electrical appliances; The scale of foreign trade under control can effectively participate in international competition-their strategy may really succeed.
