Chapter 922
The next day, Chu Chen got up early, and after breakfast, he drove to the Panjiayuan ghost market, and was going to find the seller to find out where the box containing the clues to Wei Zhongxian's treasure came from. of.

Speaking of it, it was precisely because he wanted to find out where the box came from that Chu Chen was in a hurry to come back from the Porcelain Capital. You must know that it was related to Wei Zhongxian's remaining treasures. If it wasn't because the trip to Porcelain Capital was more important, He's back long ago.

Nothing happened along the way, Chu Chen got off the car in the parking lot, and then walked straight into Panjiayuan.

As soon as he entered the gate of the Panjiayuan Market, Chu Chen was immediately infected by the familiar atmosphere. Although it was early in the morning, the market was very lively. There was an endless stream of people shopping for Taobao. Many people were holding flashlights and cloth bags. Collectors.

Seeing the scene in front of him, the enthusiasm for Taobao in Chu Chen's heart was immediately ignited. Unfortunately, the purpose of coming today was not mainly for Taobao. He could only suppress his emotions and start looking for the seller.

The seller Chu Chen was looking for was called Dasha by everyone. The reason why he was named after the famous star in Xiangjiang was because he looked more like a fool, and sometimes he had a tendency to do things. Silly.

However, don't think he is really stupid just because of his appearance and name, he is not stupid, especially when it comes to money, he is so shrewd, let alone a buyer, even a seller can't stand it .

Just because Dasha was more shrewd, even though Chu Chen saw him from a distance, he didn't dare to walk over directly, otherwise he would think wildly if he couldn't keep it all together.

So, Chu Chen slowly walked towards Dasha's booth while looking at the things on the booth from time to time.

"Hey, Boss Chu, why are you free today?"

Chu Chen was about to squat down to check the things on a stall, but unexpectedly the stall owner happened to be an acquaintance, so he greeted him with a smile.

Chu Chen looked up and found that the other party was also a regular customer of Panjiayuan. He often saw him when he set up a stall before, and he would communicate with him from time to time, and his relationship was not bad.

Chu Chen greeted the other party with a smile, and said, "It's not that I've been out for a while, and I'm flustered by our strange thoughts. I just have time today, so I came for a stroll."

The stall owner nodded with a smile, exchanged some pleasantries, and said, "Boss Chu, I have some new pieces of light crimson colored porcelain here. They are all works of famous masters. I wonder if you are interested?"

"Row!"

Chu Chen glanced at Dasha from the corner of his eye, and found that there were quite a lot of customers at his booth, and he was not in a hurry to go there now, so he planned to take a look at the stall owner's things, so he agreed with a smile.

The stall owner was very happy to see that Chu Chen agreed. Now Chu Chen's name is very famous in the antique world in the capital, and he is still the Jade King, so he is not short of money at all, and he buys things more freely. Such a buyer can say everyone likes them.

Of course, the stall owner didn't want to lie to Chu Chen. After all, Chu Chen's eyesight is not hidden. If he wants to lie to him, it's just asking for trouble!
"Hey, I'm also helping my friend. He said he didn't want to buy a large pile of light crimson porcelain, so he asked me to help sell it."

As the stall owner said, he turned around and took out the things from the box behind him.

Chu Chen asked curiously after hearing the words: "Why, is your friend's family having any difficulties?"

The stall owner shook his head: "Isn't that right? The reason why he bought a lot of light crimson colored porcelain before was to invest and wait for the value to rise. I didn't expect that the value of other things in the market has risen so quickly in the past two years. However, although this light crimson colored porcelain has also appreciated in value, compared with blue and white porcelain and other porcelains, the gap is too big, so he is going to sell the light crimson colored porcelain in his collection, and then invest in blue and white porcelain. "

After hearing what the stall owner said, Chu Chen finally understood what was going on.

This light crimson color is another kind of overglaze color that is different from five colors and pastels. It was produced in the Tongzhi period of Xianfeng, ended in the 20s, and has been popular among the people for more than half a century.

However, the collectors have not paid much attention to the collection of light crimson porcelain.One is that the light crimson color was not valued by the court in the past, and there was no light crimson color in official kiln porcelain in the Qing Dynasty; the other is that the light crimson color was produced too recently, and its historical value is not high; Because the glaze is too thin, the glaze is easy to fall off during use, which reduces the beauty.

Therefore, although there are a large number of light crimson colored porcelains on the market, and there are many genuine products with cheap prices, collectors are willing to spend a lot of money to buy so-called official kiln porcelains with many doubts, and they don't even bother to pay attention to the genuine and cheap light crimson colored porcelain. porcelain.

Chu Chen reckoned that the stall owner's friend bought those probably because the light crimson colored porcelain was really cheap, so he bought a lot and waited for the value to increase.However, he probably did not expect the market to explode suddenly, and the current buyers are chasing the rise but not the fall. Although this light crimson colored porcelain is genuine, it is not liked by buyers because of its low price.

Speaking of which, this is exactly the difference between domestic collectors and Western collectors. Like Western collectors, they are very fond of art, and they often get a collection, so they must do a lot of research. Find out the source value of something.

For example, if two Kangxi blue and white vases are placed together, their shapes and decorations are exactly the same, but the price may be higher and the other lower. The difference, even if it is very subtle and difficult to see, must be thoroughly studied.

In addition to the difference in the treatment of collections, domestic and Western collectors are also different in purchasing collections.

In the West, collectors deal with experts, and they use the professional knowledge of experts to help them establish a complete collection system. In addition, collections will also be handled by experts, while experts deal with auction houses. Each expert will work hard to create Own brand, this is the way to survive.

But domestic collectors seem to be more willing to let the public know about themselves. They go to auction companies to participate in auctions and buy things with the most expensive money. This is a good way to quickly become famous.

Although this is due to the different factors of Eastern and Western cultures, it can also be seen that Chinese people are utilitarian and impetuous in their collection.

Closer to home, the stall owner took out a total of three collections. After saying hello, Chu Chen picked up one of the earcong-style vases with a light crimson color landscape and figures, and looked at them.

This bottle has a round mouth, a thick neck, a square body, a ring foot, and ear rings on both sides of the shoulder.The appearance of this utensil is in good condition, and the tire glaze is excellent.The composition is well-structured, the colors are elegant, the mountains are far away and the water is close, and the huts are low and hidden among the green mountains and trees.The fisherman Zhouzi straddles the breeze and river waves with a happy expression, quite forgetting both things and me.

In addition, there is a poem inscribed in ink and color on the body of the bottle, and the last seal "Huanzhang" Zhu Wenzhang is exactly Ren Huanzhang's inscription.

Ren Huanzhang, styled Weishan, nicknamed Nanqiaozi, and named Chunfengshi in his studio, was a famous light crimson porcelain painter in the Royal Kiln Factory of the Tongguang Two Dynasties.His painting style is broad, his works are rich in themes, landscapes, figures, flowers and birds are all exquisite, his brushwork is concise, his writing is both beautiful and meticulous, and he is chic and elegant. known as the Four.

Chu Chen observed the utensil carefully and confirmed that it was indeed genuine and also a masterpiece.

The other two items are Wang Shaowei's light crimson color landscape pattern elephant ear statue, and Chengmen's light crimson color landscape square brush holder.These two authors and Jin Pinqing are called the "Three Masters of Light Crimson Porcelain Painting", and of course these two things are not the same.

Because of the characteristics of the light crimson colored porcelain, and the fact that the stall owner didn't dare to fool Chu Chen, these two utensils are true at first glance, and they are also exquisite products with perfect appearance.

Chu Chen was very satisfied with the three pieces of light crimson colored porcelain. He smiled and said, "Boss Wang, I like these three items very much. Let me give you a real price. But, as you know, I don't want to It’s too likely to bring so much cash, and buying three together may not be enough.”

The stall owner was very excited when he heard this. As for Chu Chen’s claim that he didn’t have enough cash, he said it’s okay, he can owe it first, as they are all people in the business, and besides, Chu Chen’s shop is not far away, so he is not afraid of Chu Chen. Will default.Then he offered the price, which was not too expensive, but not cheap either.

In the end, Chu Chen bargained and the two parties settled for 6 yuan.

After writing an IOU to the stall owner, Chu Chen said, "Boss Wang, have you transferred all of your friend's light crimson colored porcelain? If not, I can cover it all."

"Ah! Is it all included?" The stall owner was surprised when he heard this.

Chu Chen smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's all covered!"

Seeing that Chu Chen didn't mean to be joking, the stall owner was very happy. He helped sell these things, but he also needed some commissions. If this business can be successful, he will undoubtedly get a lot of income.

However, he was a little confused about Chu Chen's intentions in doing this, so he asked cautiously, "Boss Chu, will the price of this light crimson colored porcelain increase?"

Chu Chen couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words: "Boss Wang, it's not the first day you've been here. As far as the market of light crimson colored porcelain is concerned, do you think the price will suddenly increase?"

The stall owner smiled awkwardly when he heard the words, and Chu Chen saw that there was still a strange look in his eyes, so he explained: "I don't know if you know that I am going to open a private museum, and these light crimson colored porcelains are just for me. Prepared by the museum."

Hearing this, the stall owner had a dazed look on his face, and thought, this is what happened.

"Okay, Boss Chu, I'll pass on your words to my friend in a while."

"Then thank you, Boss Wang." Chu Chen nodded with a smile.

In fact, the reason why Chu Chen bought those light crimson colored porcelains was that he was very optimistic about the appreciation potential of light crimson colored porcelains, apart from the fact that he was planning to use them as exhibits in museums.Among them, there are several reasons.

First, few people want light crimson colored porcelain in the market, so the price is low. Although Chu Chen's family has a big business, he is certainly willing to spend a small amount of money on investment.

Second, light crimson colored porcelain is the first time in the history of our country that a ceramic artist signs the author's name on his work. This is of great significance in the history of ceramics. Based on this, it is enough for collection.

Third, light crimson colored porcelain represents the high level of ceramic painting art in the past dynasties, and is the best example of the organic combination of traditional Chinese calligraphy and painting art and ceramic art.There are many works of high-level artists on the light crimson porcelain, which are vivid and lively, which cannot be compared with the rigid and complicated official kiln paintings, nor can they be imitated by today's counterfeiters.

Based on the above three points, Chu Chen feels that there is a lot of room for the appreciation of light crimson colored porcelain. Even if it is not valued now, there will always be a glorious day.And the development of history is exactly as Chu Chen thought. Ten years later, the three pieces of light crimson color that Chu Chen bought today have increased in value by [-] to [-] times. In terms of investment alone, it is a successful example.

Moreover, in addition to the three points mentioned above, for some beginners and collectors with little funds, there are other benefits to buying light crimson porcelain. For example, because no one cares about light crimson porcelain, The price is low, so there is no man-made fake, and the collection of light crimson porcelain can save the danger of paying tuition fees to imitators.

Of course, as the price of light crimson colored porcelain is getting higher and higher, counterfeiters also focus on this aspect, but because the superb technical level of light crimson colored porcelain is beyond the reach of those forgers, as long as you don't relax If you are vigilant, it is not difficult to identify fakes.

In addition, it is also a little trick for collecting and investing that people abandon me and take it, and win by surprise.

Another point is to have a meal with an expert. Of course, this expert must be a real expert.

Just like this stall owner, although Chu Chen has already explained it, and at the same time he has also investigated the value of light crimson colored porcelain. It is true that there is not much room for rising in the short term, but since Chu Chen dares to buy, there is always a reason , and the price of this thing is cheap, so he also bought it and planned to hold it for a long time.

Unexpectedly, this step was really right for him. After a few years, the value of the light crimson colored porcelain he bought has greatly improved, and this has become one of the most proud decisions in his life.
