Chapter 102
Why is it that Mei Lanfang's costumes are always expensive when they are auctioned?
Not only because of historical and cultural considerations, but more importantly, Mei Lanfang is very rich, so he can use whatever is best.
According to records, he has five sets of costumes for "The Drunken Concubine", and the cost price of the lowest set is around 3000 yuan. Based on the purchasing power at that time, if converted into current RMB, it is not much lower than [-] million yuan.
And the short video on the screen just now also made it clear: the feathers are kingfisher tail feathers, the crown is gold bars, the belt decoration is silver rings, the base is mink fur, the beads are east beads, and the jade is emerald, corundum, and suet white jade...
And the so-called second-class jade is the kind sold by the catty, it can appear anywhere, but it will never appear on this phoenix crown...
As for the second point, it is even more incredible: was it replaced within ten years?
Those previous collectors and appraisers, were they all blind?
More than a dozen pairs of eyes were nailed to Li Ding'an's face like needles.
But he was still there, indifferent.
Yang Guangxin was dubious, thought for a while, and then looked at He Anbang: "Director He, I have to trouble you..."
He Anbang sighed.
If you can come here today, the goal is this phoenix crown, how could you come here unprepared?
But I didn't expect that even if the things were not photographed, there was not a single piece of identification work missing?
He nodded downward, and the four librarians got up together and came to the limousine.
Those who wear gloves wear gloves, those who hold a magnifying glass take a magnifying glass, and the movements are very gentle.
The purpose is also very clear, that is, those jade ornaments...
From this point of view, it was ten minutes.
The four librarians straightened up one after another, gathered together again, and started discussing.
The sound is so small that you can hardly hear anything.
Just as Yang Guang's confidence was burning with anxiety, a librarian came over.
His expression was both surprised and weird, and he spent more than half of the time looking at Li Ding'an during the short walk.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
"He Guan: The emerald feather is fine, the gold crown and silver belt are fine, the bead chain is fine, but..."
The researcher paused for a while and lowered his voice, "54 pieces of jade ornaments, nine pieces each of yellow, red, blue, green, white, and purple. Among them, there are two kinds of green and white, and three quarters are Australian jade and Russian jade..."
With a "buzz", He Anbang's scalp went numb: The most expensive jadeite and mutton jade were transferred?
However, Australian jade was only introduced into China in 2011, isn't it just a matter of ten years?
I almost fell into the pit again, thanks to Yang Guangxin... oh no, thanks to Li Ding'an...
Yang Guangxin was stunned for a moment, his eyes fixed on Li Ding'an's face.
No wonder Chen Jingshu, He Anbang, Lu Benzhi, and those four librarians looked like that?
But then, he realized again, now is not the time to be surprised, but the phoenix crown worth 3000 million is actually a fake?
There is no need to be ambiguous at all, let alone half-truths.The reason why an antique is valuable lies in its non-renewability, but someone insists on "regenerating" it?
Even if the inferior jade is now replaced with emerald and suet jade, this thing can only be called a "work of art"...
For a moment, his face glowed black: "Who did it?"
No one spoke, but they all looked at him with strange eyes.
Yang Guangxin froze for a moment, his face darkened even more.
Isn't the answer obvious?
Whoever collected it recently will be more suspicious. Otherwise, why is such an obvious problem discovered only now?
Christie...
Unfortunately, Huijia is controlled by Christie, and in Yang Guangxin's account, Christie's stock ranks first...
He exhaled one after another, and even had the urge to scold his mother...
This matter is not very easy to deal with, and maybe this thing has to be thrown into my own hands.But it doesn't matter, 3000 million won't hurt him.
However, he had never been defeated so badly before, and it was by Chen Jingshu's hands?
The oil painting is fake, but he spent nearly a million?
The phoenix crown is also fake, and he even spent 3000 million?
And these, Chen Jingshu knew all about it, and then, using Xing Mingpeng, she came up with a trick...
With such a comparison, he looks like a clown?
Most people who can become billionaires do not lack concentration, and the same is true for Yang Guangxin.Otherwise, it would be impossible to fight openly and secretly with Chen Jingshu for several years...
So after a little effort, he actually calmed down.
"It's ok……"
There was still a smile on his face, "Is there any more?"
Li Ding'an had a half-smile: "If there is, won't Mr. Yang also take pictures?"
A very common sentence finally made him unable to laugh.
After being angry for a long time, Yang Guangxin snorted coldly: "I don't believe it. There are problems with all three exhibition halls and hundreds of collections? I don't believe it either. You know all the problems?"
Well, he was really right, he saw that the problematic things had already been filmed.
But the problem is, with hundreds of pieces in the collection, Mr. Yang, you can't finish shooting by yourself?
Li Ding'an was about to say something, but stopped, and his ears trembled slightly.
"The next collection to be auctioned is an Islamic holy object, with a starting price of 30..."
At the same time, the screen flashed, and a picture of a piggy bank appeared. A concierge pushed a limousine and pushed the real thing onto the stage.
Haha, isn't this one just the problematic thing?
Li Ding'an breathed out: "Boss Yang is right: there are hundreds of collections, and I really don't know which one has problems, so I can only try one by one..."
He unhurriedly raised his number plate: "31!"
Yang Guangxin glanced at the screen, his expression froze: What the hell are you talking about?
……
It's not that religious things have no artistic value, on the contrary, many Buddha statues and Taoist scriptures have sold for millions or even tens of millions.
In both Buddhism and Taoism, there are also celebrities and poets, such as Huai Su, Bada Shanren, Wu Daozi, and Huang Gongwang. Once the works of these people are released, they will definitely cause frenzy, and it is not uncommon for them to sell for hundreds of millions.
But what about Islamic artifacts?
To be honest, Yang Guangxin really didn't agree with it.
It's not just him. In the domestic collection circle, I have never heard of anyone who likes this category.
No one likes it, so naturally it cannot be said to be valuable.
Then what does Li Ding'an mean, Jiang Taigong is fishing, and those who wish to take the bait?
While thinking about it, the auctioneer had entered the bidding process. Yang Guangxin thought for a while, and with a hook of his mouth, he also raised his number plate.
Li Ding'an secretly sighed: I knew you would come...
Seeing two familiar faces, the auctioneer cheered up: "32...33...34!"
"How troublesome is this?" Li Ding'an smiled, "One million!"
For a moment, there was silence in the small corner.
He Anbang stared at the screen and blinked several times, then grinned like a toothache: This thing is worth 100 million?
Is it likely that Yang Guangxin was hooked?
But how can it be so easy?
It would be nice not to be led into the ditch by Yang Guangxin...
He looked at Professor Lu again, and Lu Benzhi shook his head directly, meaning he hadn't understood it before and didn't know.
The four librarians were also very curious, staring at the screen with blank faces.
Yang Guangxin had a panoramic view of these expressions, and at the same time he knew what they represented.
Do you dare to call something that the Forbidden City and the National Museum don’t understand? 100 million?
OK, let's play with you...
Yang Guangxin raised his card, and the auctioneer said, "One million and one million!"
Li Ding'an smiled again: "200 million!"
Yang Guangxin again.
Auctioneer: "Two million and ten thousand!"
Li Dingan: "300 million!"
Ten times the starting price?
Yang Guangxin paused for a moment: If you go too far, if you increase the price, you will probably have to throw it into your own hands...
The long-lost smile appeared on his face again, and he leaned back slightly: "Congratulations, you're here!"
"Mr. Yang won't shoot anymore, what a pity!"
Really, he is going to call 1000 million...
Yang Guangxin was startled for a moment, and secretly cursed and pretended: "It's really a pity!"
According to the usual practice, the auctioneer should give a compliment, such as "treasure", "the customer has discernment" and so on.But he didn't know much about this kind of thing, so he couldn't speak, so he had to read a few words according to the label.
This time, only a dozen or so people could hear clearly: silver ball, religious artifact, specific purpose: not clear...
It turned out that it wasn't just that they didn't understand, the sender and the auction house also didn't understand.
How dare you ask for 30 for something like this?
What's even more weird is that Li Ding'an actually took the film, and turned it up ten times?
It feels even more exaggerated than that fake oil painting, and the fighting spirit can't be fought to such an extent, right?
Suspiciously, the things were brought down, and by coincidence, wherever the limousine went, everyone's eyes followed.
Similarly, a ribbon was tied inside the box, which just blocked the line of small print, so it could only be seen that the thing was just like its name, a silver ball.
The gray-black texture is covered with patina, but the patterns on it are still clear.
"Expanded anvil hammer, molded flowers, man-made in Arabia."
"It's said to be a holy artifact, but I don't know the specific purpose, or is this the first time I've seen it?"
"Gold and lapis lazuli are worth some money, but not much, only tens of thousands."
At this point, Yang Guangxin became more determined: it's not bad, it's a game back.
He smiled: "It's a good deal, isn't it!"
It means I lost 3000 million, but I have money, how about you?
Unexpectedly, Li Ding'an nodded very seriously: "This thing is estimated to be worth tens of millions, 300 million, it is really a bargain..."
Tens of millions... Are you kidding me?
With a sound of "chi", the sneer had already crept to his lips, and Yang Guangxin was stunned again.
Why is it that no one doubts, but everyone looks excited?
Even including He Anbang, Lu Benzhi...
Li Ding'an looked around, "Mr. Ding, can I borrow your tool to use it!"
"Use whatever you want!" The researcher surnamed Ding's eyes lit up, "Do you want to help?"
"No need?" Li Dingan shook his head, opened the toolbox and looked through it.
When he saw clearly what was in his hand, a dozen pairs of eyes widened: Hammer?
Then, Li Ding'an opened the box and took out the silver ball.
And then……
His "boom bang" is two hammers.
Everyone was stunned...
