Chapter 919 Visiting the Museum
In the Yanjing Museum, in Wen Zhiming's office, under the sight of four people, Wen Zhiming carefully opened the express box, and finally saw the bowl of the enamel-colored Apricot Forest Spring Swallows made by Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty.
Wen Zhiming put on white gloves and carefully took out the Apricot Forest Spring Swallows Picture Bowl, then observed carefully under a magnifying glass, looking at every corner of the Apricot Forest Spring Swallows Picture Bowl, especially the poem written by Qianlong's imperial pen above, and observed carefully every stroke.
A few minutes later, Wen Zhiming finally nodded slightly, then delivered the Xinglin Chunyan picture bowl to an old man in his sixties next to him with a smile, and then passed it to another person one after another.
Finally, with the affirmation of Wen Zhiming and an ancient porcelain expert in the museum, and an expert in Qianlong's poetry and painting, the Xinglin Chunyan Picture Bowl was undoubtedly the authentic one, and the quality was very well preserved. It was considered the top utensil among Ming and Qing porcelains.
Coupled with the above poem written by Qianlong's imperial pen, the entire Xinglin Spring Swallow Picture Bowl is priceless. Wen Zhiming and several experts present estimated that if this Xinglin Spring Swallow Picture Bowl is to be taken to an auction outside, it may not be less than 30 to 40 million.
Among the donated cultural relics received by the Yanjing Museum this year, this Xinglin Spring Swallow Bowl should be the most valuable one.
After Wen Zhiming and two experts saw it, someone immediately brought a white silk and blue cloth next to him, carefully placed the Xinglin Chunyan Picture Bowl on it, and then started posing for photos. Another person next to him was preparing the entry procedures and asked Wen Zhiming and several experts present to sign the certificate on the form.
Originally, the donor should have signed the donor on this form, and a donor certificate will even be issued to the donor later. With that certificate, the donor can enter the Yanjing Museum for a lifetime without admission.
However, now that the donor is not here, this step will naturally be skipped.
Seeing the staff next to him arrange the incoming procedures step by step, Wen Zhiming swept the express box on the desk from the corner of his eyes. For some reason, a hint of anger flashed across Wen Zhiming's face.
Wen Zhiming took out his cell phone almost without thinking, then found the phone just now and dialed it.
Nonsense, it’s really nonsense. How can such a priceless and research-rich cultural relics be sent by express delivery? If there is any loss, not only you, but also me, are sinners in the entire archaeological world.
This is a crime against cultural relics.
Wen Zhiming dialed out the number angrily, and then, obviously, a soft female voice came from the other side of the phone: "Hello, the phone you dialed has been turned off..."
Wen Zhiming was stunned, and then his eyes began to tremble.
...
At this time, Zhang Kun, after watching Wen Zhiming turn around and chase into the museum, he also pushed the electric car and left slowly. What happened afterwards had nothing to do with him.
Of course, he turned off the old man's machine as soon as possible and even took out his mobile phone card. In this way, no matter how black technology there is, he would not want to use the mobile phone number to track him.
Of course, Zhang Kun had foreseeed Wen Zhiming's possible rage, but what's the matter? Anyway, you can't expose yourself. This is the first factor. As for the others, how could Zhang Kun consider so much?
In general, today's donation operation was carried out successfully, if Wen Zhiming's anger was not counted.
But in short, today is a very good start. Zhang Kun planned that if nothing unexpected happens, the future donations will be handled according to today's routine.
After leaving the Yanjing Museum, Zhang Kun first went to pay back the leased electric car, and then returned to Siheyuan.
It was almost noon when Zhang Kun arrived home. Qi Xiangyang was sitting honestly in the study room reading. Not to mention, he seemed to be quite excited. Even Zhang Kun's footsteps seemed to be heard when he came back.
When the cook cooked lunch, Zhang Kun greeted Qi Xiangyang and started to think about teaching issues.
To be honest, this is the first time Zhang Kun has been doing this. Not to mention Zhang Kun, even Yao Zhiping is the first time. When he was born, he was always studying cultural relics and other things and never brought his apprentice.
Even if I occasionally teach Hou Baoguo something, most of them are brought out naturally during conversations, and I have never really studied how to teach and solve doubts.
Finally, Zhang Kun and Yao Zhiping discussed it, let alone how to learn and teach. The most important thing about archaeological identification is the word "eye" and "eye" first. Let's let Qi Xiangyang practice his eyesight first.
How to practice this eye ability? It’s nothing more, just look at it more.
What to look at? Of course, I’m looking at the authentic ones.
There is a saying in the antique business that says, good eyesight are all fed from the fine antiques with plain faces.
So if you want to have good eyesight and harsh eyesight, then all you need to do is to read more, look at the authentic products, and then continuously accumulate various information about authentic antiques to achieve the goal of developing a good eyesight.
If you want to see more antiques and fine products, it was difficult in the ancient antique circle in the past, because the value of antiques is generally extraordinary, and it is usually only circulated in a certain circle, which is difficult for ordinary people to see.
But in modern times, this museum does not mention the streets and alleys, but basically there are many in every province, especially Yanjing. As the capital of a country, there are thirteen museums of all sizes.
Those antique collections worth a thousand dollars are like beauties under the lamp, and are placed in front of everyone in a delicate way. Spend some money and buy a ticket, which is whatever you think.
Not to mention those thirteen museums, as long as you can see the collections of one or two of them clearly, your eyesight will be almost done.
So Zhang Kun and Yao Zhiping discussed, let’s go to the museum, and then the two of them set their destinations as the Palace Museum and the National Museum of China. This is Yanjing and even the two largest museums in China. If they can study the things inside thoroughly, Qi Xiangyang will probably be able to start his career.
As for the third-ranked Yanjing Museum, this has been excluded by Zhang Kun. Wen Zhiming is there, and Zhang Kun doesn't want to come to find any trouble.
Even though Wen Zhiming should have known nothing in theory, Zhang Kun instinctively didn't want to get close to it.
After discussing with Yao Zhiping, Zhang Kun greeted Qi Xiangyang and then started his first teaching stop, the Palace Museum.
Then Zhang Kun also chose the teaching type, so let’s start with the Shang and Zhou bronzes.
I remember when I first came into contact with Qi Xiangyang, Zhang Kun picked up a book called Qi Xiangyang on the ground, which is "Bronze Wares of Shang and Zhou dynasties". Later, Zhang Kun occasionally looked through the books collected by Qi Xiangyang's family, most of which were related to bronzeware.
Therefore, Qi Xiangyang used to see this category the most, so Yao Zhiping decided to start with the category of Shang and Zhou bronzes.
