    Meng Zitao listened very carefully, because what Xu Youhao said was based on his many years of experience, which is very helpful in appraising calligraphy and painting. Such experience is something you would never hear if you didn't have the opportunity.

    I heard Xu Youhao continue to say: "This painting is what I call a fake from the old days. It is rare now. I only got it through a junior some time ago. Although it looks a little awkward, it is still quite good.  Commemorative."

    Speaking of this, Xu Youhao smiled and said: "However, Xiao Meng can see the state-owned problems in this painting at a glance. It seems that he has rich experience in appreciating calligraphy and painting."

    Meng Zitao waved his hand quickly: "You are always trying to kill me. The appraisal of calligraphy and painting is the most complicated appraisal project. I dare not say that I have rich experience."

    Xu Youhao said with a smile: "I only know that you are the first young man who came to my study to see that there is something wrong with this painting at a glance."

    Zheng Anzhi smiled and said: "Okay, Old Xu, stop praising my disciple all the time. Haven't you heard that the higher you jump, the harder you fall?"

    Xu Youhao rolled his eyes at Zheng Anzhi: "You old guy is just boring. When I praise your apprentice, you are flattering him. It's really baffling."

    Zheng Anzhi said: "That's all I said, why do you think you are flattering me? I think you are confused."

    "I'm too lazy to care about you."

    After saying that, Xu Youhao walked to his workbench angrily.

    Zheng Anzhi didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Don't worry about this old man. He has such virtue. He will be fine after a while."

    Xu Youhao silently sorted out the calligraphy and painting scrolls on the table and put them aside. Meng Zitao asked curiously: "Mr. Xu, these calligraphy and paintings seem to be quite old."

    "These were all brought over by others for me to identify."

    Xu Youhao explained: "Previously, many people had taken the paintings and knew they were fake as soon as they laid eyes on or handled them. However, it is really not good for people to come all the way and judge the authenticity of something just by looking at it.  I usually read it carefully before giving the result."

    ¡°It¡¯s just that some of the paintings and calligraphy are so bad that I can¡¯t stand them anymore, so I just let them keep them here for two days before I come back to pick them up.¡±

    Xu Youhao has the temper of a child. Sometimes his temper comes and goes quickly. After a few words, his mood gets better again.

    "By the way, take advantage of today's opportunity to do me a favor and read them all."

    Meng Zitao is very happy about this. This is also an opportunity to learn, and with seniors around, he can also listen to his opinions.

    Of course Ren Kexin had the same idea, so everyone took out the calligraphy and painting for appraisal.

    "Hey, this painting is somewhat interesting." Meng Zitao let out a light sigh.

    This is a picture of narcissus, signed by Wang Shishen, a famous painter, calligrapher and one of the Eight Eccentrics of the Qing Dynasty.

    The reason why Meng Zitao said this painting is interesting is that in terms of paper and other aspects, this painting is definitely not up to date, but his painting skills are very outstanding, even better than Wang Shishen.

    Ren Kexin looked over and felt a little surprised: "Grandpa, what's going on with this painting?"

    Xu Youhao smiled and said: "It's very simple. Nowadays, some high-imitation paintings can be painted to an extent that exceeds the artistic level of the original works. I have encountered this situation more than once. For example, Qi Baishi's paintings, there are imitation paintings  The painter's painting skills are even better than Qi Baishi's. Some of them specialize in inscriptions and their calligraphy is better than Qi Baishi's. Finally, several people collaborated together. For me, such works cannot be said to be fakes. They also have their own collections.  Of value.¡±

    Ren Kexin asked: "Then how can we identify such imitations?"

    Xu Youhao replied: "The key depends on your understanding of the author. Take me for example. From my work to now, I have seen not only millions of ancient calligraphy and paintings, but also hundreds of thousands. For some famous artists  I know the styles of different periods by heart, so it will be easier to judge.¡±

    Ren Kexin said thoughtfully: "In other words, practice makes perfect."

    Xu Youhao smiled and said, "Yes, that's the simple truth."

    Ren Kexin shook his head: "But I don't have such conditions."

    "Then let's do it step by step. Antique appraisal requires the accumulation of experience and knowledge. It is impossible to become a fat man in just one bite."

    Speaking of this, Xu Youhao looked at Meng Zitao: "Of course, freaks like Xiao Meng are another matter."

    Meng Zitao smiled without saying anything to me, discussed the painting for a while, and then took out the next work.

    There is strength in numbers"Then I'll write a song called "Whirlwind Song" in cursive."

    "Song of the Whirlwind" is a famous poem by Shao Yong in the Song Dynasty, which expresses the open-mindedness of old age. After Meng Zitao brewed his emotions for a while, he finished it in one go.

    Looking at the handwriting on the paper, not to mention the two elders, even Ren Kexin, who had previously thought that Meng Zitao's calligraphy should be extraordinary, was stunned after reading it. This calligraphy is at the level of a master. Could it be that it was really written by Meng Zitao?  ?

    "this¡­¡­"

    Xu Youhao came back to his senses and didn't know how to describe his mood. Finally, he smiled bitterly and said: "I apologize, it's the old man who has done something wrong in my job."

    He then glared at Zheng Anzhi again: "You old fool, did you not say it on purpose because you wanted to see my joke!"

    Zheng Anzhi said angrily: "If I knew that Zi Tao's calligraphy was so good, would I still not say anything?"

    Xu Youhao thought the same thing after hearing this. Considering Zheng Anzhi's character of quarreling with him, if he knew that Meng Zitao had master-level calligraphy skills, it would be impossible for him to keep the news at bay.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
