    What makes Ma Laocai depressed is that Mr. Zhu and the others are actually in the box. If he were in the lobby and saw this situation, he could turn around and leave immediately, but now in full view of everyone, he can't just leave!  If you really do this, you will undoubtedly offend Mr. Zhu. Then can people still help you in the future?     Why!  I blame myself for not asking the waiter just now how many people were in the box!  Seeing that everyone in the room was looking at him, Ma Laocai could only walk in and greeted everyone in the room one by one.  I have to say that there is no one here who doesn¡¯t know Ma Laocai¡¯s character, but it¡¯s a good idea not to hit someone with a smile. Although everyone despises Ma Laocai, they still have to show some respect when they say hello.  After saying hello, Ma Laocai said a few words and then directly stated the purpose of his visit.  In fact, everyone here has already heard the news that Ma Laocai got "Luo Shen Bin", and they also know that after Ma Laocai got the thing, he went directly to the capital, presumably to use it for appraisal or to sell it. Now  I brought it to Mr. Zhu for appraisal. It seems that the situation is not optimistic!  A friend wants to ask, how come everyone knows so much about Ma Laocai¡¯s itinerary?  This was of course the result of Ren Qiang's widespread publicity. Finally, he had a chance to take revenge, and of course Ren Qiang had to seize it firmly.  Mr. Zhu was also very curious about Ma Laocai's "Luo Shen Bin". After learning Ma Laocai's purpose, he asked everyone to clear the table, because "Luo Shen Bin" was too long and could not be placed on one table, so everyone could only  Look at it bit by bit.  Everyone present has good eyesight, so when they saw the handwriting of the text, they were surprised, because compared with the original handwriting, the words on it were not only similar in shape, but also similar in spirit, if this was a fake.  That would be incredible.  However, to say that no one can imitate the real thing is not necessarily true. As an expert in calligraphy and painting appraisal, Mr. Zhu knows that there were many literati in the Ming and Qing Dynasties who imitated Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy and painting very closely. Among them, he was most impressed.  It was a calligraphy work by Chen Qian imitating Zhao Mengfu that I encountered when I was working in a museum.  ??This Chen Qian is from the Ming Dynasty, his courtesy name is Shiqian, his nickname is Na'an Yiren, and he is from Gusu.  Living in the capital, he was able to write regular script and imitated Zhao Mengfu.  Gorgeous and charming.  The ancient paper dyed at that time was forged into Zhao's book, but the original paper cannot be identified.  He also imitated Zhao in his paintings and boasted of being considerate. Critics said that he imitated Zhao's paintings as "six or seventy percent wonderful".  In other words, if it is a particularly exquisite work by Chen Qian imitating Zhao Mengfu, the fake can be mistaken for the real one.  The work Mr. Zhu encountered at that time was just like this. With his eyesight, he could not tell that it was a replica.  Finally, the problem was discovered from the seal and paper.  Therefore, it is still very difficult to identify calligraphy and painting. Sometimes, it is necessary to be comprehensive in order to identify the authenticity of a work.  After that experience, Mr. Zhu felt that this work should be authentic in terms of the use of brushes and other aspects, but if he wanted to be sure, he had to carefully observe several other aspects.  The authenticity of something cannot be determined until everything is correct.  Everyone slowly looked to the back and saw the seal and collection seal. From everyone's perspective, there should be nothing wrong with these four seals. However, the postscript was not Zhu Zhishan's original work. This made everyone confused.  Got into trouble.  You want to say this is a genuine product, but what do you say in the postscript?  Could someone deliberately falsify the authenticity?  Want to say.  This is not impossible, but from the perspective of ancient people, this kind of thing is really unbelievable.  But if you want to say that this is imitation, in their opinion.  Judging from the characteristics of the calligraphy and the seal, it should indeed be Zhao Mengfu's original work. However, as there are many imitations of Zhao Mengfu, you are not sure if it is not as realistic as the imitation.  In fact, the most important thing is that the few people present are not so confident in their own eyesight. The best solution to this situation is to invite multiple calligraphy and painting appraisal experts to participate in the appraisal, and finally discuss a result together.  After appreciating the work in front of him, Mr. Zhu asked: "Shopkeeper Ma, have you ever asked others to appraise this work?" Ma Laocai subconsciously said: "No, no! You are always the first." etc.  After he finished speaking, he thought to himself, "It's broken!"  If Old Man Zhu knew that I had gone to the capital for appraisal before, wouldn't that be the end of it?  Thinking of this, Ma Laocai felt uneasy, but after thinking about it, he felt that the people present might not even know that he bought the "Luo Shen Fu" in front of him, so how could they know that he went to the capital?  Thinking of this, Ma Laocai immediately felt relieved and waited for the appraisal results given by Zhu Lao.  But the reality is not what Ma Laocai thought. Because of Ren Qiang's relationship, everyone present knows everything about his itinerary.  Therefore, after hearing what Ma Laocai said, everyone felt even more contempt and contempt for him.Evil, in addition, there is a hint of anger.  Why is everyone angry?  As mentioned before, since Ma Laocai went to the capital, but wanted to take the things to Mr. Zhu for appraisal, it must be because the results were not ideal. If the experts in the capital said it was authentic, why would you, Ma Laocai, need it?  See the results given by experts in the Wucheng antiques industry?  Although experts in the capital may not necessarily have better eyesight than them, how could Ma Laocai not find a famous appraisal expert when he went to the capital for appraisal?  Or whether he is selling it to someone else or going directly to an auction company, how could the other party not ask one or a few heavyweights to help appraise such a valuable thing?  No matter what the situation is, even Mr. Zhu among the few present feels that the other party's eyesight and experience are at least not worse than his, and it is very possible to be better than him.  "And this kind of person will have a reason for saying something is wrong no matter what. It is impossible to say something is not true without giving any reason.  Ma Laocai concealed such important information, how could those present not be angry!  As for the reason, it is very simple to say.  If they don't know that the experts in Beijing think this thing is wrong and rashly say that the thing is real, then their reputation will definitely be damaged in the end. Then Ma Laocai will use their conclusion as a basis to sell the thing to others and buy it.  When I arrived home and found out it was a fake, I would definitely have to come to settle the score with them in the end.  ¡°After all, this is not something worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but tens of millions of national treasure-level cultural relics. If they are told that the fake is true, it will be a lifelong shame for them.  Therefore, when Mr. Zhu saw Ma Laocai lying about this matter, he was angry and sentenced Ma Laocai to death. If Ma Laocai asked him to help appraise anything in the future, he would definitely turn it down, and he would be even more determined in business.  No interaction.  Although several people present felt particularly disgusted with Ma Laocai, on the surface they could not see any difference from before. Ma Laocai also did not know that he had such serious consequences if he panicked once, and finally asked him to wait.  When Mr. Zhu came, he said, "There is nothing I can do."  So, some of the things that go wrong in the world are actually caused by the information asymmetry between the two sides. In Ma Laocai's case, in addition to the information asymmetry, his dishonesty is also a very important factor.  Ma Laocai waited for a result that made him despair, but he did not give up. Then he went to find several experts to help with the appraisal. However, what he didn't know was that the process of asking Mr. Zhu to help with the appraisal had already happened in Wucheng.  The news spread throughout the antique world, and even some people in the surrounding areas heard the news.  In this case, the result is of course consistent with what Mr. Zhu gave, and all the experts said that they could not give a clear result.  Disappointed again and again, Ma Laocai became frustrated and decided not to waste time on such things. The issue he was most concerned about was how to transfer things.  Ma Laocai also knew that this calligraphy had been widely circulated in Wucheng antique circles, but the method he adopted was to cast a wide net to catch more fish. As long as he knew the customers, he called and inquired, and the ones as far away as Xiangjiang were called.  ¡° Some of these people declined immediately after hearing the rumors, while others showed great interest and expressed their desire to come over as soon as possible.  However, maybe he did too many bad things, and many accidents happened during this period. Either someone inquired about the situation with friends in the Wucheng antiques industry before coming, and then said he would not come, or someone saw it.  What's more, Ba Wei's problem is that he also encountered a liar. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have almost succeeded.  The items had not been sold for several months. Seeing that his business was also greatly affected, Ma Laocai gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!"  He just left the thing there. He didn't believe that he would never have the chance to sell the painting, so he put it away now.  Ma Laocai came back to his senses and said to Chu Chen with a smile: "Mr. Chu, if the postscript is wrong, it can't be said that it must be wrong, right?" "Then what do you think is the chance of this happening? Besides, I think  There should be a lot of people reading this "Fu of Luo Shen", right?" Chu Chen asked with a half-smile.  Ma Laocai chuckled and said, "Mr. Chu, you haven't read the text yet. How about you read it first and then talk about it?" Chu Chen did not refuse, except for Zhu Zhishan's postscript.  He could basically identify the other two collection seals as authentic. In addition, he also found the pen used in the main text very interesting. At first glance, it was almost the same as the pen he had seen at Mr. Liu's before. Such a high-level work  Imitation, to be honest, he has never seen it before.  So, Chu Chen took out a magnifying glass and observed it carefully. When he saw it, he was suddenly shocked.  Because with his eyesight, he couldn't see what was in front of him at all.It was too incredible for him that the miracle would be a forgery.  "Is there really someone who can imitate Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy so perfectly?" Chu Chen muttered to himself, but an idea flashed in his mind, and he thought excitedly: "It's not like I have gone into a misunderstanding. This is simply true.  Authentic, right?¡±
