Chen Yu coughed lightly and expressed his point of view calmly.

"At first glance, this painting does look like a Song painting, or at least a Ming Dynasty copy!"

Chen Yu deliberately raised his voice when he said this, and instantly attracted everyone present.

“However, if you look carefully, you will find many suspicious points.

"Especially in the depiction of some buildings and characters, it cannot withstand scrutiny at all."

"About this, the brushwork and ink of this painting are not as rigorous as those of ancient people when painting, so I identified it as a modern imitation!

"Of course, everyone will never agree with these alone. Please give me some time to tell you in detail for your seniors and netizens in the live broadcast room."

After saying that, Chen Yu nodded slightly to Chen Xiyue and said politely: "Honey Chen, please point the camera at this painting."

Chen Xiyue didn't say nonsense, just do what he said immediately!

Chen Yu took an unused brush from the pen holder next to him, gently tapped the figures on the drawing paper a few times, and then said to the camera: "Please look, these characters in the painting cannot be said to be poorly drawn.

“At least there is no flaw in the first glance.

"The caravan owner is majestic.

"The guards follow, with a brave appearance.

"The fisherman fishes for the old man, simple and honest.

"The teenager is alive.

"Everything looks good, as if the characters in the calligraphy and painting should be described like this!

"But everyone calm down and think about it. The caravan owner should be extraordinary, and the guards must be brave, and the fisherman and the old farmer are also ordinary, simple, honest and honest.

"Such all these give people a very rigid and mechanical feeling.

“It’s like the teacher teaches us what we do.

"It may be no problem for ironwork, stove, wine making, etc., but for artistic creation, such a step-by-step approach will inevitably become the most popular.

"Such dull and without vivid charm is worth collecting, and it will not be passed down until now!"

Chen Yu's words were so passionate that everyone fell into deep thought.

"Ahem!"

An old man wearing a baseball cap from the Binhai Collection Association stood up and smiled, "Xiao Shen, what you said can only say that this painting does not have the charm and style of works of famous artists, but these evidences cannot convince people about judging this painting!"

Chen Yu knew the other party, and was the owner of a famous ancient painting store in Binhai City. His surname was Nangong, and his single name was a word "Just": "Senior Nangong said right. These cannot be used as a basis for dynasty, but as necessary prelude, I must talk about it first!"

After saying this, Chen Yu continued: "In other words, the person who painted this painting has no problem with basic skills, and it can even be said to be very strong! But why do you draw the characters so rigid? My answer is that it is not that the author's ability is insufficient, but that the author deliberately does not want to achieve the effect of flying clouds and mists and transcendent artistic conception!"

After Chen Yu finished speaking, Li Bufan next to him immediately showed a deep thought expression. He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked Chen Yu in confusion: "Xiao Shen, what do you mean is that the person who painted this painting did this on purpose?"

Chen Yu nodded and replied very respectfully: "That's right, President Li, this is exactly what I mean by me."

Li Bufan smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I don't understand this. False people usually strive to be the same as the original. How can anyone make a flaw in an old way but deliberately reveal flaws?"

Chen Yu explained calmly, "Before answering this question, I want to say a few words. President Li, you are a collector, a senior in the industry. I believe you must know that the ancients' obsession with collecting are far more than modern people, right?"

Li Bufan didn't understand why Chen Yu asked this, but since Chen Yu asked, he naturally wanted to answer it, and then nodded, "Yes, collection is not a patent for modern people.

"The ancients were far more obsessed with antiques than modern people! Needless to say, whether it was Emperor Taizong of Tang or Wu Zetian, they were absolutely fan of the calligraphy of Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi and his son.

"In the Song Dynasty, it even caused a wave of collections!

"According to the "Dream of Tokyo", calligraphy, painting, antiques, pearls, and rhinoceros jade can be bought and sold in the Panlou Market in the capital of the Song Dynasty every day.

"The Zisheng Gate in the capital is a place where books and calligraphy and paintings are sold. Once the calligraphy and paintings of famous artists appear, they are immediately bought at a high price.

"There was no electricity in ancient times. The ancients did not play with their mobile phones like modern people who wanted to play with their mobile phones, and went to watch TV and movies. As long as your eyes were not tired, you could watch them as long as you wanted.

"The ancients rarely had a way to relax and entertain. When a person had money, the first idea was to collect antiques, which led to fakes flying all over the sky in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties.

"Even many of the treasures in the Royal Palace are fakes. Once the royal family of the Song Dynasty wanted to collect Wu Daozi's paintings, they collected hundreds of them among the people, all of which were fakes, and there was no one.

"Collection of the original works of Li Cheng, and found hundreds of them, but only two of them are real!"

As soon as Li Bufan opened his mouth, he couldn't stop talking. "The fake and weird thing in the Song Dynasty made many celebrities take the initiative to create fakes. For example, Mi Fu, he was named a master of copying, and his imitation of ancient paintings, especially the calligraphy of Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi and his son, was simply difficult to distinguish between true and false.

"Frauding in the Ming Dynasty was even more amazing. Many descendants of famous artists specifically forged the original works of their elders. Copying day and night makes perfect. With their own painting skills, they can reach 70% or 80% of the original works, and fooling ordinary collectors are enough.

"In some places in the south of the Yangtze River, some fake workshops have already formed a scale. They have clear division of labor, changed to ancient times, and used the works of famous painters to be top painters, which is extremely difficult to distinguish."

What Chen Yu wanted was Li Bufan's endorsement. When Li Bufan finished speaking in one breath, he immediately continued: "With your explanation from Mr. Li, everyone will be more convinced if I give the answer!

"All the seniors present, as well as netizens in the live broadcast room.

"In Chuzhou, there is a well-known antique shop called Jian Gulou, which is a store specializing in calligraphy, painting and ancient books.

"The owner of the shop is called Fatty Wang. Is his painting skills excellent? There are no calligraphy and paintings that he cannot copy from famous artists in the Tang and Song dynasties.

"His ancestors had two court painters. Before the family was whitewashed, they traced back to the early Ming Dynasty. The family specialized in the transaction of fake calligraphy and paintings in the Tang and Song dynasties.

"In the circle of fake calligraphy and painting, I am definitely an expert.

"This matter is not a secret, and it is well known in the antique circle of Chuzhou. Fatty Wang is open-minded and never deliberately conceals the affairs of his ancestors.

"Of course, there is no need to hide it! Fatty Wang sold paintings, not selling new paintings as ancient paintings, but selling them himself at the price of new paintings.

"It is just because his painting skills are so exquisite that he is looking for painting and there are endless people who are looking for painting, so the price gradually rises.

"At the beginning of the millennium, a painting by Fatty Wang costs only three or four hundred yuan.

"By 2005 and 2006, the price had risen to 2,000 yuan per piece.

"In 2008, it rose directly to 5,000 yuan.

"And this year, a painting has cost 10,000 yuan and needs to be customized. It will take two months to get the painting after customization."

After saying this, Shen Yu asked Wang Yuqian not far away: "Boss Wang, how many years have the painting Lingzun collected?"

Wang Yuqian scratched the back of his head, thought for a while before replying: "It's almost twenty years since I counted it?"

After hearing this, Shen Yu smiled heartily, "Fatty Wang is 47 years old this year. Twenty years ago, it was the period of high productivity when he created it!"

Li Bufan looked solemn, "Xiao Shen, are there any evidence for what you said?"
