Chapter 444 This bronze ware is imitation!

Chapter 444    This bronze ware is imitated!

At tonight's auction, there were all selected treasures, with a wide variety of varieties, not only carvings, but also various precious jewelry, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, and kesi embroidery treasures.

The first few exhibits were exhibited, except for the first one, the golden nanmu Buddha sculpture, all of them were calligraphy and paintings and jewelry, so Qin Lang never took action. Kang Heping next to him was just looking at it, and it seemed that he had no intention of buying things.

Half an hour later, another work was taken to the stage, a bronze ware that seemed to be quite old.

As soon as the red cloth was lifted, Kang Heping next to Qin Lang suddenly sat upright, took out his cell phone, faced the stage, and made a video call.

Soon, a middle-aged man's face appeared on the screen of the phone.

Qin Lang heard Kang Heping say to the man: "Old Fan, what you want is here."

Fan Wenhua on the other end of the video approached the camera, as if she wanted to see what was on the stage clearly.

Kang Heping smiled and said, "Don't be anxious. When the show is displayed later, I'll let you get closer to see."

If you don’t have any objections, you will display the items in advance. If you are interested in this item, you can hold a sign to participate in the auction. In this way, the etiquette lady will also hold the items with them for longer.

Qin Lang and the others sat in the second row, so they were soon displayed in front of them. Kang Heping raised the card, and the etiquette lady stopped and placed the lot on the small table in front of them for them to see carefully.

Because Qin Lang sat next to Kang Heping, he could see it clearly.

Kang Heping was showing the people in the video, holding the beast-faced patterns and swaying around with his hands wearing gloves.

"How is it? Lao Fan, can you see clearly?"

Fan Wenhua said: "You can see clearly, but it is still inconvenient to be away from the scene. Look at the weight."

Kang Heping looked at the data introduction table next to him and reported him a value.

Fan Wenhua nodded, "This weight is no problem, it is heavier than the newly built beast-faced rhinoceros."

"You tap your fingers twice, put your phone over, and I'll listen to the sound."

Kang Heping followed his command and did a series of things. Finally, Fan Wenhua said happily: "Okay, no problem, Lao Kang, you must take pictures of this thing for me!"

"Okay, then I'll let them continue to display it. You can listen to the bid later."

Qin Lang listened to what had just happened. Seeing that Kang Heping's friend seemed to want to buy this beast-faced wrinkle-shaped goblet, Qin Lang hesitated for a moment and didn't speak for a while.

The auction of the beast-faced wicked goblet began, and Kang Heping was the first to bid under Fan Wenhua's command.

The information introduction of this animal face patterned rhinoceros is written about cultural relics unearthed in the late Shang Dynasty, so the starting price is 5 million, and each bid is 500,000.

After Kang Heping called out a price of 5.5 million, someone quickly called out a price of 6 million, and Fan Wenhua bid again.

This kind of antique is of great value to ordinary collectors, so people have successively increased the price.

Soon, the price reached 10 million. At this time, Fan Wenhua frowned and asked Kang Heping to continue bidding.

Qin Lang reached out and stopped him a little.

Another person called out a price of 10.5 million.

Kang Heping looked at Qin Lang in confusion. Fan Wenhua on the other end of the video didn't know what happened, so he also asked.

Qin Lang said to Kang Heping: "Old Kang, is your friend bound to be worthless for this?"

Kang Heping immediately said: "He wants this, but he must consider the value. He is still bidding, which means that this thing is worth it."

He smiled on his face as he said, and after he continued, "Mr. Qin probably hadn't come into contact with bronze ware before. Bronze in the Shang Dynasty has always been very expensive."

Qin Lang was not unhappy when he heard him say this, after all, Kang Heping didn't understand him either.

"Old Kang, if your friend considers the value issue, he can stop at this time."

"It is normal to buy more than 30 million yuan in the late Shang Dynasty, but it is not worth it if it exceeds 10 million yuan in imitations in the Song Dynasty."

Kang Heping was stunned, and Fan Wenhua on the other end of the phone said, "Heping, are there anyone around you?"

Kang Heping solemnly asked Qin Lang: "Qin Lang, can you be sure this is a copy?"

"Do you know who the old Mr. Fan in my video is? He is the vice president of the National Collection Academy. He has seen so many authentic products, and he has misunderstood too little. He has just confirmed that you say this is a copy of the Song Dynasty. Can you be responsible for your words?"

Qin Lang chuckled and said, "Old Kang, I will naturally be responsible for my own words. Today you invited me to the auction. I just don't want you to regret it after getting the goods."

After hearing what he said, Kang Heping gave him the phone directly.

"Come on, you talk to Mr. Fan. Bronze ware is not my specialty. Come and tell him."

Qin Lang nodded and picked up his cell phone.

When Mr. Fan saw Qin Lang, he couldn't help but be stunned. He thought he was a master invited by Kang Heping, but he didn't expect that he was such a young man.

"Young man, why do you say that the beast-faced rhinoceros is a copycat?"

Qin Lang said: "When Mr. Kang showed it to you just now, I sat next to me."

As he said that, he raised the service sign and asked the Etiquette Miss to bring the lot over again.

During the auction, you can apply for a display again due to uncertain reasons.

Qin Lang pointed the camera at the beast-faced wax goblet, and said while wearing gloves: "This beast-faced wax goblet is an antique work from the Song Dynasty. Because it is also an unearthed cultural relic, it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity in weight. Moreover, because many of the Song Dynasty were antique works, there is no problem in appearance."

"But the sound can still tell the problem."

Qin Lang said, tapping the bronze ware gently. Fan Wenhua listened carefully and said, "This sound is turbid and unclear, no problem."

"Listen again." Qin Lang knocked on the position above.

After asking, Fan Wenhua frowned slightly and said, "There is indeed a subtle difference in the position of the cup mouth, but this does not mean that it is not from the Shang Dynasty."

"The late Shang Dynasty is far away from the present and has experienced many dynasties. If this beast-faced wicked rhinoceros is a product of the Shang Dynasty, it has been buried underground for many years, and the mineralization level should be deeper. However, the tone above this beast-faced wicked rhinoceros is brighter than that below, indicating that the soil it buried is dry and pure. According to the tomb method in the history of our Long Kingdom, the late Song Dynasty seems to be more in line with it."

"But this can only be used as a basis for inference, and the most important thing is here."

Qin Lang pointed at Fan Shi's position and took a magnifying glass to show Fan Wenhua carefully.

"Most of the bronzes in the Shang Dynasty were ignored, so it was difficult to achieve Pingnan symmetry. There were always some subtle differences. However, the Song Dynasty antique works, craftsmen paid more attention to perfection and beauty, and would use wax pieces during the casting process, so that the bronze closure can be smooth and smooth, with almost no traces seen."

"It is difficult to see the pattern line with this beast-faced wicked rhinoceros, but when you look closely, you can still find traces of the pattern line when the splicing overlaps. Although it is a bit corrosive, you can still see that the upper and lower patterns are flat and symmetrical."

After Qin Lang said these words, Fan Wenhua on the other end of the video was completely stunned.
