Chapter 21 National Treasure Discovered
Denied~ The simple primitive religious belief can still purify the spirit of believers> The owner of the shop has been traveling in an original ecological area that has not been attacked by civilization. The Thangka purchased during the trip is still relatively credible. Tang Feng really wanted to calm down and share her travel story, but he himself felt that the realm of both sides was not on the same level. People were looking for the meaning of life through travel after journey, but he was all intent on money and could not have a common language.
Realm is originally a Buddhist saying. In the saying goes, it is a thing to pursue after satisfying material desires. No matter who has a realm, he will be hungry for two or three days without any realm. Spiritual pursuit must be based on material basis. The owner of the store can play with his life like this, and I think he is a good person who is not short of money.
The more Tang Feng looked at the Thangka in his hand, the more he liked him. The terrifying "shemale god" with nine sides, thirty-four arms and sixteen legs became cute.
Plans are like food, reality is like stomach, constantly digesting the original plan, and the final result is often jaw-dropping. Tang Feng quickly knew what planning is worse than change.
Ten days passed in a flash, and the preview of the annual calligraphy and painting auction of Zhuji Auction House was held as scheduled. At 7 o'clock in the evening, Tang Feng and Chen Yan rushed to Zhuji Auction House together.
Chen Yan turned the corner of the street, and the gate of Zhuji Auction House was already close to him, but Chen Yan did not stop at the gate. Tang Feng asked, "Hey, you have driven it, why don't you stop?"
"Do you think I'm stupid. Don't you see the situation at the door? Oh, I'll drive an Alto and park the gate at the gate. Isn't this arguing for yourself?" Chen Yan said.
Tang Feng looked at the situation at the gate, and the red carpet was directly placed on the side of the road. The doorman was busy parking the guests who were present. The parking spaces on both sides of the gate were full of good cars. He was embarrassed to meet people when driving a Japanese car, let alone Chen Yan, the Alto, which should have been scrapped long ago.
Alto found a parking space in an alley away from the gate of Zhuji Auction House, and stopped Yan and Tang Feng for a long time before they arrived at Zhuji's door.
;Yan touched Tang Feng with his elbow and said, "You really haven't thought about what happened to Liu Yue?"
Liu Yue was wearing a white evening dress over there. She was beautiful, dignified, noble and elegant. She really made people excited. Tang Feng said: "Can you just use your brain and you can achieve your wishes? Can I still stay here?"
As soon as Liu Yue arrived at Tang Feng and Chen Yan walked into the door, she came over to say hello. She smiled slightly and said, "You two are welcome."
I don't know if I don't watch it. I was shocked when I saw it. The preview of the preview of the Tangfeng auction of the Six Treasures of the Study House was considered high-standard. Compared with this year's special auction, it was simply not on the same level. It was several streets lower than that. On both sides of the hall, it was crowded with reporters from major media from home and abroad. Their long guns and short cannons were aimed at the gate together. Their local equipment was full of landmarks, including Northern Satellite TV, Oriental Satellite TV, Hong Kong Phoenix Satellite TV, Taiwan Dongsen, CCT, etc. In short, all the Chinese media you can know are here.
Tang Feng was very surprised. He asked Liu Yue, "They weren't your invitation, are you?"
"How is it possible that you respect our family too much?" Liu Yue shook her head and said, "This is serious news. We must be on the "News Broadcast" site."
Chen Yan immediately asked: "Is there a big figure like the central leader attending?"
Liu Yue nodded and said, "The big guy is not a big guy, he is a very important person."
"Liu Yue, don't go around the corner." Tang Feng asked: "Who is so big?"
Liu Yue said: "Is it very important to go back to Taiwan to worship the ancestors of the Palace Museum in Taiwan? "Is it important to return to my hometown to worship my ancestors?"
It’s no wonder that this is not only a major event in the cultural and museum circles, but also a major event in cross-strait cultural exchanges. Being treated with such courtesy is completely logical. The Chairman said it well. The five thousand-year splendid culture created by the children of all ethnic groups in China has always been a spiritual bond to maintain all Chinese people. In this matter, culture is higher than politics and military.
Tang Feng immediately thought of another thing, and he immediately asked: "So, is there any important lots appearing in this auction?"
Chen Yan immediately asked, "Whose is it? Is it more famous than the Tang-style Zhang Daqian's antique paintings?"
"Well, it's more famous and more important." After Liu Yue said this, she looked around and said to the two: "Let's go over there and talk in detail."
The three of them left the lobby and came to the side hall. Liu Yue continued: "It is Su Dongpo's manuscript of "Nian Nujiao's Red Cliff Nostalgia".
Tang Feng was very strange. He asked Liu Yue: "Why didn't we receive any news?"
"I also want to tell you earlier, but conditions do not allow it." Liu Yue pouted cutely and said, "This item was received by Zhuji Auction House the night before yesterday. My grandfather didn't dare to make decisions without authorization, so he reported it to the relevant departments. I learned about this news at noon yesterday. I originally wanted to ask Tang Feng to come and identify the authenticity, but the manuscript has actually been out of our supervision and I can't touch it at all.
The expert group of the Ministry of Culture, led by Qi Moze, former president of the Palace Museum, is now deciding."
This item is really important. If it is unanimously identified as true, the government will never allow auctions, and blockade news is inevitable. Liu Yue continued: "Mr. Ren Wangzu is a recognized master in this regard. The relevant departments sent an invitation letter. After learning about this, he did not bother to apply to the Taiwan authorities. In the name of returning to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he detoured Hong Kong and flew directly to Beijing last night."
"I really want it." This was Chen Yan's first reaction. He asked: "If you can auction, what is the reserve price?"
"Hey!" Tang Feng shook his head and said, "No need to ask, the eight-digit number is above." Chen Yan didn't think about it. Even if it was auctioned, it would not be their turn to be involved in the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month. Among the hundreds of guests on the scene, any one of them would be richer than Tang Feng. The eight-digit number is tens of millions. This is just the lowest price, and the final transaction price is entirely more than 100 million.
Su Dongpo's handwriting is not covered by the word "Precious". There are only more than fifty pieces passed down from generation to generation. There are more than forty pieces in the Palace Museum in Taiwan, and only ten pieces in the mainland. Since Su Dongpo's handwriting has never been publicly auctioned, Tang Feng can only make a judgment through circumstantial evidence. The four collections of Dongpo's poems in the Song Dynasty currently in the Shanghai Museum are worth up to 16 million yuan, and woodblock printing is so expensive, let alone handwriting.
Tang Feng asked Liu Yue: "Is the evening party on display?"
"Then you have to ask." Chen Yan said: "It's definitely done."
"You are wrong." Liu Chenyan said: "This matter is very complicated. The client is a well-known patriotic Hong Kong businessman at home and abroad. He will donate all the proceeds from the auction to Hope Project. If we don't exhibit it, if he changes his mind and wants to take it back to Hong Kong, no one can stop it."
A series of emergencies make this matter difficult. Of course, the relevant departments will not take the blame for the world. The responsibility for blocking normal commercial auctions is not something that a department can take. If it is not handled properly, it will cause an uproar.
"Wait." Tang Feng suddenly said: "So, we can completely participate in the competition.
"This Su Dongpo hand is a private collection and is protected by law. Even if the state wants to take it back, it can only adopt a repurchase method. In this sense, the competition between individuals and the state is fair competition, and the expert group only has an advantage in the identification time. Another important thing is that the identification of manuscripts is very difficult. If the internal opinions of the expert group cannot be unified, the state will not participate in the competition. Tang Feng is completely likely to directly pick up the bargain at the auction.
The more points a shot are, the lower the value. The country cannot participate in gambling auctions. If you spend money to buy fakes, wouldn’t it be a big joke? If the expert group has identified it as true, there is no need to invite Taiwanese experts. All signs indicate that the expert group has a great internal discrepancy and has not yet reached an identification conclusion.
Tang Feng said: "As long as it can be carried out publicly, we can participate in the identification. Now, other issues need not be considered. The issues of authenticity and money are the most important."
At this time, a commotion broke out in the crowd. A group of people led by Qi Mo, the former president of the Palace Museum in Beijing, came to the gate. There is no need to ask about this, and they must find a person with the same status as Ren Wangzu to greet him. There is no doubt that Qi Mo, the former president of the Palace Museum in Beijing, is the most suitable receptionist.
Outside, a long list of domestic red flags turned around the corner. The car in front drove directly past the gate of Zhuji Auction House. The car in the middle was parked at the gate. The door opened. Ren Wangzu, who was white-haired and crutched, walked out of the car with the help of his accompanying staff. The living fossil from the Taiwan literary and historical circle is 80 years old, but he is in good spirits. He waved to the people around him while walking.
Qi Mo, who was 70 years old, also walked towards Ren Wangzu with his staff. The lights were constantly lighted and the sounds of clicks were repeated, and the hands of the two former deans of the Palace Museum on both sides of the Taiwan Strait were tightly held together.
Qi Moze said: "Mr. Ren, welcome to return home!"
Ren Wangzu was a little excited. He looked up at the sky and said in a trembling voice: "I heard the truth in the morning and died in the evening. I can return to my hometown in my lifetime. I will have no regrets in my life."
Amid the applause, someone shouted loudly: "Mr. Ren, let's say a few words."
In this kind of unofficial occasion, it is relatively easy and casual applause again. Follow the convention. There are a few words to say in this occasion.
Ren Wangzu sighed and said, "Sixty years have passed, I have been dreaming and returning several times. Today, I am very happy. Here, I borrow a song by Ye Jiaxiu to express my inner feelings. Five thousand years of culture is a constant pulse. I remind you and remind me that we have a name called China. No matter how great the wind and rain we have seen, we have survived the adversity of hardships, but the great national integrity has never changed! Thank you everyone."
