"Please stay, Mr. Ye Tian, ​​can you see the heirlooms we brought and help us identify them? If you can give an accurate valuation, it would be better!"

Four or five people made this request in unison. They sat next to several adjacent tables, and each looked at Ye Tian with anticipation.

Obviously, in order to cooperate with the performance of the program "I Have Heirlooms" these people brought the heirlooms from their respective families to the Spring Festival Gala and prepared to display them publicly.

But who would have thought that he would meet Ye Tian, ​​the world's top antique art appraisal expert, at the Spring Festival Gala, and he was willing to appraise for free. This kind of god-given opportunity is not something that everyone would miss.

Ye Tian did not respond immediately. He first raised his hand and looked at the time, then smiled and said loudly:

"Thank you for your praise. It's not bad to help identify the heirlooms you brought, but it's not long since the Spring Festival Gala began. I can only quickly appraise and will not explain it anymore.

I can identify your family heirlooms and give a valuation based on the current antique art market conditions, but without giving detailed explanations, whether you believe my identification conclusion depends on you!"

"No problem, Ye Tian, ​​we believe in your vision. No matter what the result is, we can accept it."

An entrepreneur in his fifties responded first, and the rest nodded and agreed.

Ye Tian nodded with a chuckle, and then said loudly:

"Okay, since everyone has no objection, please take out your heirloom and place it on their own tables. I will appraise them one by one and enjoy them well, so that it will save time."

As he said this, the people immediately took action, took out their own family heirlooms and placed them on the table, waiting for Ye Tian to come over to identify them.

In a blink of an eye, there were a few antique artworks on those tables, which attracted everyone's attention.

The audiences who were closer to the round tables all stood up, stretched their necks, stood on tiptoe, and looked at the antique artworks, everyone was curious.

The many CCTV staff members who were on the scene and the members of the Spring Festival Gala director team in the backstage rolled their eyes in anger and complained wildly.

"Okay! The Spring Festival Gala has completely become the stage for Ye Tian. If I had known this, I wouldn't have invited this guy to participate in the Spring Festival Gala at all! Not only did I tell you the trouble, I also stole the limelight!"

While secretly complaining wildly, many Spring Festival Gala staff were also very curious. There were many heirlooms that appeared at the Spring Festival Gala today, and several of them were priceless top antique artworks!

Seeing that everyone had taken out their own heirlooms and placed them on the table, Ye Tian stepped out and began to identify these things.

He first came to the round table where the entrepreneur in his fifties lived, picked up a gold-sprayed copper stove from the table, and admired it.

This is a Xuande furnace, and the exact name should be called the Sprinkled Gold Copper Elephant Ear Gui-style furnace.

Its appearance is open, round lips, delicate texture, regular shape, thick patina, bright color, and restrained treasure light. The bottom foot is engraved with the six-character regular script style "Made in Xuande Period of the Ming Dynasty".

Ye Tian picked up the Xuande furnace and looked at it over and over again, then put it back on the table, then smiled and said his identification conclusion.

"This is a very good 'Xuande Furnace', but it is not a real Xuande Furnace, but a copper furnace imitated in the early Qianlong period. The technology is quite brilliant and should have come from the Qing Palace Construction Office.

The Xuande Furnace was cast in the same period and also from the Qing Palace Building Office. Several of them have been auctioned over the years and the transaction price is quite good. In comparison, this Xuande Furnace is a little better.

As for the quality of this Xuande furnace, based on the current antique art market and related auction records, I value it for about 2 million yuan, which is only low or not high!”

After saying that, Ye Tian nodded slightly to the entrepreneur, then walked towards the next round table.

Looking at the entrepreneur again, his expression was a little disappointed, but he quickly returned to normal. He thanked Ye Tian and then put away the Xuande furnace.

Needless to ask, the price of his Xuande furnace should be higher than 2 million yuan, or he originally thought that this was the copper furnace cast in Xuande in the third year, and his expectations were too high, so he was naturally a little disappointed!

Fortunately, this Xuande furnace imitated in the early Qianlong period was also pretty good and valuable. Even if it was a little disappointed, it was still acceptable.

In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian had arrived at the next round table, picked up a painting from the table, and admired it.

The painting is very small in size, less than forty centimeters long and about fifty centimeters high. It is an Impressionist-style Western artwork, which paints a rural landscape.

After taking the painting and looking at it for a few glances, Ye Tian put it back on the table, and then smiled and said his identification conclusion.

"This is an impressionist painting. To be precise, it should be an early impressionist painting. The name of this painting should be called "The Seine Scene in Bugival", which is one of a series of paintings.

The artist who created this painting was Sisley, a famous British and French painter, an artist and one of the important Impressionist painters. The creation period of this painting should have been around 1873.

In other words, this is an early work by Sisley. At that time, Sisley had become a member of the newly emerging Impressionism, and his painting brushwork was influenced by Monet to a certain extent.

In this painting, we can see a little shadow of Monet. After Sisley gradually matured, especially after his trip to London, he gradually got rid of Monet's influence and formed his own unique artistic style.

In the history of Western art, Sisley and Monet are known as the true representative of pure Impressionism. Among the Impressionist painters, Sisley is the only person who only paints landscape paintings, and is called the most beautiful landscape paintings of Impressionism."

Hearing this, a sound of marvel immediately sounded at the scene.

"It's actually a Western artwork, and it's a famous Impressionist painting. It's really rare, and it appears on the Spring Festival Gala. It's interesting!"

"I am completely convinced by this guy Ye Tian. Is there any antique artwork of Bada Shanren's flower and birds, Xuande Lun, and this Impressionist painting, and there are antique artworks that this guy doesn't understand and cannot identify?"

Everyone may not know much about Sisley, the Impressionist general, but everyone has heard of the famous Impressionist and the Impressionist master Monet.

Such an impressionist painter who can be ranked alongside the master of art Monet must have a great value for his works, and it is very likely that he will be a top-notch work of art worth a huge amount of millions.

Moreover, this is China, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. The work of a top Western art master also made everyone here feel curious!

After a moment of pause, Ye Tian continued to say:

"Around 1870, the Franco-Prussian War broke out, Paris was besieged, and Sisley fled to the rural areas outside Paris. In the following years, he stayed outside Paris and created many impressionist paintings.

Among them, he created about ten works in the series "The Seine Scenery in Bugivalle", and ten paintings are in line with each other, but the scene angles are different, and the painting time is basically in 1873.

Most of this series of paintings are now collected in museums around the world, including the Yale University Gallery, the Montreal Art Gallery, the Stockholm National Art Gallery, the Orsay Museum and other places.

I was somewhat surprised to see this early impressionist painting by Sisley here, which also shows that our domestic collectors have turned their attention to the international market.

Let’s talk about the valuation of this Impressionist painting. Based on the current market of antique art and the auction records of Sisley’s early impressionist paintings, I estimate it for about US$3.5 million.

It should be around 24 million to convert it into RMB. Given that works by Western art masters rarely appear in China, if this painting is shot in China, the transaction price should be a little higher."

Before he finished speaking, the scene was already boiling again.

"Wow! Another top-notch artwork worth more than 20 million yuan. It seems that today's Spring Festival Gala is really a crouching tiger, hidden dragon, and there are a lot of priceless antique artworks!"

"Or it's a family heirloom! This is the real family heirloom, their value is really amazing!"

Just as people were talking, Ye Tian had already walked to the next round table, picked up a piece of porcelain that looked quite exquisite from the table, and began to appreciate it.

Unfortunately, this is a high-quality imitation porcelain fired in the early years of the Republic of China. It imitates Yongle blue and white porcelain, which is naturally not worth much money.

After seeing that the porcelain was a high imitation, Ye Tian could only whisper that he couldn't understand the porcelain very much and did not have a public identification conclusion, so as not to embarrass the owner of the porcelain!

The New Year is on the Spring Festival Gala again, so why bother to ruin others’ moods!

Of course, those who are a little familiar with it understand what Ye Tian means, but no one has said it.

Next, Ye Tian quickly identified two antique artworks, and then returned to his seat and sat down.

In fact, if he didn't go back, the CCTV staff on the scene would come to drive people away.

As Ye Tian finished the appraisal, after sighing, everyone on the scene quickly calmed down and re-betted their attention on the colorful, festive and peaceful Spring Festival Gala stage.

It was getting closer and closer to eight o'clock in the evening, and the atmosphere at the Spring Festival Gala became more and more lively. Everyone was happy and looked at the stage of the Spring Festival Gala with anticipation.

There are only five seconds left, and the countdown begins.

All the audiences at the Spring Festival Gala, as well as every Chinese person and every Chinese family who were guarding countless TVs, were staring at the electronic clock and starting to count down in unison.

“Five, Four, Three, Two, One”

Amid the excitement of countdown, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Chapter completed!
