    Just when Song Lei was falling into deep self-blame, Chu Chen meticulously finished reading the "Mountain Lushan High Picture", and then he turned to Song Lei and asked: "Mr. Song, how much do you plan to sell this work for?  " When the people around him heard what Chu Chen said, they couldn't help but be stunned. Cao Hui asked in disbelief: "Mr. Chu, are you really planning to buy this painting? " "What, can't I buy this painting?  "Chu Chen said strangely.  "But, this" Chu Chen interrupted Cao Hui and said: "Mr. Cao, I think you have been doing calligraphy and painting business for a long time. Haven't you heard of Lao Fang?" Cao Hui was slightly startled when he heard this.  Then he quickly came over to check it out, and immediately blushed with embarrassment. Then he said with a wry smile: "It's really an old imitation!" As he said that, he kept blaming himself in his heart for not discovering this earlier and causing such harm to himself.  Making a fool of himself in front of Chu Chen.  In fact, if it were someone else, Cao Hui wouldn't be so careless. In fact, he has seen the calligraphy and painting works brought by Song Lei countless times before, and every time they are high imitation paintings, or crudely made fakes.  Now, he no longer had any hope in what Song Lei brought.  Song Lei really didn't expect to encounter such a thing, and he quickly asked with some excitement: "Master Chu, right? How much are you prepared to pay for this work?" "This thing belongs to you, and my price is really inappropriate.  " Speaking of this, Chu Chen saw the unconcealed excitement on Song Lei's face and poured cold water on him: "However, Mr. Song, I have something to remind you, no matter how good this work is.  , it¡¯s just an imitation. The price is certainly not very high, and the imitation artist is probably not a famous artist. It¡¯s just that the imitation is relatively sophisticated, and the painting skills are not high.¡± In the world of calligraphy and painting, there have always been ¡°imitation paintings.¡±  "With this phenomenon, not all of these works are worthless, and some other fine imitation paintings also have considerable collection value.  In addition to the works of "famous artists imitating famous artists", among these paintings, there are also a large number of "fake famous" masterpieces from the masters of the old era who imitated famous artists.  The so-called "fake famous" works are generally produced by painters from the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.  Although these imitation paintings are mainly used for profit, a considerable number of works are of superb painting skills.  Moreover, they are old and well-mounted, so these works also have a certain collection value.  For example, in 2000, a certain auction launched three "fake famous" masterpieces for auction, and without exception, they all fetched good prices.  One is a Qing Dynasty imitation of the hand scroll "Hundred Birds Pay Attendance to the Phoenix" with color by Zhao Lingrang, and the transaction price is 16,000 yuan. The other is an imitation of the Qing Dynasty color silk hand scroll "Xuan Ji Tu" with color by Qiu Ying, with a transaction price of 80,000 yuan. There is also a Qing Dynasty  Colored silk hand scroll "The Immortals Offer Their Longevity" by Zhao Yong.  The transaction price was 50,000 yuan.  ??The most critical reason why the three imitation paintings fetched high prices is their precision.  After all, art has nothing to do with authenticity. As long as you draw well and wonderfully, there will always be people who will appreciate it.  and reflect the corresponding value.  Song Lei originally thought that he was going to get rich, but when he heard Chu Chen's words, his heart suddenly became cold.  But he was already broken, after pondering for a while.  He offered 200,000 yuan, which was an incredible price to everyone else at the scene. ? heard about this price.  Cao Hui almost wanted to curse, but Chu Chen waved his hand and said: "Mr. Song, this work of yours is not imitated by any famous artist. If it is the "High Picture of Mount Lu" imitated by Mr. Qi Baishi, then let alone two hundred thousand, it would be two  I¡¯ll buy it for a million dollars, but for your painting, if it¡¯s 200,000, I¡¯ll have to ask you to take it back.¡± Song Lei also had a thick skin, and when he saw Chu Chen showing off that he didn¡¯t want to talk anymore, he quickly turned his face on.  He smiled and said, "Mr. Chu, I was joking just now. For 20,000 yuan, this painting will be yours!" Chu Chen shook his head and said, "I can pay up to 8,000 yuan!" Song Lei begged, "Don't bother me.  Ah, Mr. Chu, you are also a big shot. Please take pity on me and let me protect my capital. I don¡¯t want more. What do you think of 18,000? " If it had been anyone else, Chu Chen might have agreed to 18,000.  But for people like Song Lei, that's not even a thought. He spread his hands and said, "Even if I have money, I can't spend it randomly, right? If you really want to sell it, then I can offer up to 12,000 yuan. If you  If you want to go higher, then please do it! " Song Lei turned his head and glanced at Cao Hui after hearing what Chu Chen said, but Cao Hui stood there with a serious face and could not see any other expression.  But this is normal. Unless his brain is broken, he might stand up and grab what Chu Chen likes.  If Chu Chen were not here, Cao Hui would have bought the painting, but he would not have given it even 12,000, let alone 12,000.  Seeing this, although Song Lei wanted to collect the paintings and sell them to others, the experience during this period? Let him understand that vendors are very evil. Even if this painting is sold to others, it may not be as high as Chu Chen's price. The most important thing is that he is almost out of food. He really can't wait and doesn't want to experience it again.  To the feeling that life is worse than death.  In the end, he had no choice but to ponder for a moment and finally agreed.  After the transaction was completed, Song Lei carefully kept the money with him, then nodded and asked: "Mr. Chu, do you want to take a look at these paintings?" Upon hearing this, Cao Hui said angrily: "I mean, Old Song, this  You have shown me several paintings three times, and I don¡¯t want them. Do you think Mr. Chu will want them?¡± ¡°Then you still didn¡¯t see it just now?¡± Song Lei muttered.  When Cao Hui heard what he said, he was so angry. Wasn't he trying to discredit him in front of Chu Chen by not lifting the pot?  He was so angry that he wanted to go up and kick Song Lei a few times.  Chu Chen used his treasure trouser to check it out, then he laughed and said: "I still believe in Mr. Cao's eyesight, so I won't look at these paintings!" Of course, if there are really good things in these paintings, he will definitely not  So said.  Hearing what Chu Chen said, Song Lei was slightly disappointed, but selling a painting today solved his urgent need, so he didn't try to persuade him any more.  Next, when Cao Hui saw that it was already dinner time, he quickly proposed the idea of ??inviting Chu Chen to dinner.  Chu Chen originally wanted to go home for dinner, but thinking that Cao Hui had done him a favor after all, and refusing to even eat would seem like burning bridges, he agreed.   After having a relaxing lunch at a restaurant near Liulichang, Chu Chen said goodbye to Cao Hui, but when he walked to his car, he saw Song Lei walking over sneakily.  .  Chu Chen didn¡¯t feel surprised about this, because when he and Cao Hui walked to the hotel, he had already noticed that Song Lei was following them furtively.  Although he had roughly guessed what Song Lei was thinking, Chu Chen didn't have a good impression of things like stalking. He asked expressionlessly: "Mr. Song, I wonder what's wrong with you following us?" Song Lei quickly  Nodding and bowing, he said: "Master Chu, I think you are also a person who likes to collect. I still have some collections at home. I wonder if you are interested."  If you buy these things, then I can only say sorry." Song Lei waved his hands and said: "Mr. Chu, don't worry, I have two very good works at home, which are no worse than the one you just bought.  There are a lot of porcelain, maybe there is one you like?" "Porcelain?" Chu Chen said with a half-smile: "I heard Mr. Cao said that you sell porcelain, but I am not happy with that kind of porcelain.  Ah!" Song Lei smiled awkwardly and said: "Well, I admit that there are some fakes, but not all of them are. You will know what they are, and the price is guaranteed to be cheap." Chu Chen laughed, and then said.  He asked: "Since you still have porcelain, why don't you sell it?" Song Lei laughed sarcastically and didn't know how to answer. Could it be that others sent him away after taking one look at it?  Seeing this, Chu Chen secretly said, "You have yourself to blame." Then he asked Song Lei to get in his car, and then followed Song Lei's guidance to Song Lei's home in the suburbs of Beijing.  Song Lei now lives in an older one-bedroom apartment. Now his drug addiction has become more serious and he spends a lot of money. Not only has he sold the original house, but he has also spent almost all the money.  Song Lei opened the security door of his home, and immediately a pungent smell hit Chu Chen's face, making him unable to move forward.  Seeing this, Song Lei quickly opened all the windows, and then turned on the fan in the living room. It took nearly ten minutes of wind to blow away the smell of bones.  Chu Chen shook his head and walked into the room without bothering to talk nonsense. He just asked Song Lei to take out the two paintings he was talking about.  One of these two paintings is the same as the one just now. It is an imitation of Qiu Ying's "Lin Pavilion Beautiful Picture" in the Qing Dynasty. The trees and rocks are sharp and flexible, and the mountain tops are round and graceful.  The light and bright green color scheme is somewhat similar to Qiu Ying's style, and it can be considered a masterpiece.  What makes Chu Chen feel a little strange is that this painting is not only original and old, but also uses master-level mounting techniques. You must know that this is just an imitation painting. Unless it was painted by a famous artist at that time, otherwise  It's really not worth it.  But if it is really painted by a famous artist, then it stands to reason that it should leave his own promotion and seal. The key is that although this painting is a good copy??But it can't be said to be very exciting. Looking at the entire work, Chu Chen felt that it could only be regarded as a painting by a painter, and it was unlikely to be the work of a famous artist.  But for such a painting, master-level framing techniques were used. This made Chu Chen feel strange, and this immediately made him think of a possibility. Could this work be another painting within a painting?  Thinking of this, he quickly used the Lingbao Eye on it.  (To be continued)
