    Yuan Hongjian was so happy that he took the plate into his hands and looked at it again and again. At this time, a small pattern on the plate suddenly caught his attention!  It just so happened that Yuan Hongjian studied Arabic for a period of time because of his work before he retired. He recognized the decoration on the stone at a glance: it was the neat Arabic "in memory of so-and-so".  In addition, he also discovered that the lace-like decoration on the outermost ring of the plate was also carved from Arabic patterns.  The more Yuan Hongjian watched, the more excited he became, because he had been studying antiques systematically for a period of time and knew that it was not simple to have Arabic characters engraved on the plate. Could it be that this plate was much more precious than he originally imagined?  After reviewing the literature, Yuan Hongjianzi found that in the Yuan and Ming dynasties, it was more popular to write Arabic characters on porcelain as decorations, so he concluded that this plate should be from before the Qing Dynasty.  With this discovery, Yuan Hongjian almost burst into laughter. He thought to himself, could it be that he accidentally picked up a big leak this time?  In order to find out the matter thoroughly, Yuan Hongjian took the plate to the store, and the scene that Uncle Wu said in the morning happened.  Yuan Hongjian asked: "Mr. Chu, could you please show me what this plate is made of?" Chu Chen thought about it for a moment, and then said: "It should be made of resin." "But I obviously use a burning  It was pierced with a red iron needle. If the plate is made of resin, why is there no black smoke?" Uncle Wu and Yuan Hongjian were a little confused about Chu Chen's answer.  Chu Chen said with a smile: "Your judgment method is wrong. It does not work on some resin products. For example, phenolic resin is often used in our lives. It is used as a refractory material."  Also called bakelite, also known as bakelite powder.  Originally a colorless or yellowish-brown transparent substance, it is often sold in red, yellow, black, green, brown, blue and other colors with the addition of colorants.  Available in granular and powder form.  It is mainly used to produce compression molding powder and laminated plastics; to manufacture daily necessities and decorations; to manufacture refractory materials, artificial boards and other items.  Yuan Hongjian frowned, and then asked: "Then why does this plate change color?" Chu Chen explained: "This is because some chemical color-changing agents are added to it, so it changes color when it encounters water." See  Yuan Hongjian looked a little hard to accept, and Chu Chen continued: "Actually, it is quite simple to judge whether it is a resin product. Generally speaking, resin products feel warmer, the temperature rises faster, and there is no cold feeling or feeling on the hand.  Relatively short. This is obviously different from porcelain. "In addition, ceramics are fragile, but resin imitation ceramics can be broken without being broken.  No, no cutting of hands, no blowholes." When Yuan Hongjian heard this, he was afraid that Chu Chen would misunderstand, and said quickly: "Teacher Chu, I don't mean to disbelieve you, but I feel that the means of fraud are too high now, and it is really difficult to prevent it.  As for dropping the plate, I was really reluctant to do so. After all, I didn¡¯t buy this plate as a collection. I think it still has artistic value. " "Lao Yuan, to be honest, I really don¡¯t appreciate this plate.  Value." After all, they are all friends, and Uncle Wu doesn't want Yuan Hongjian to continue to make mistakes.  So I poured cold water on him.  "How do you say that? I think the carving of this plate is quite exquisite!" Yuan Hongjian said in surprise.  Uncle Wu explained: "When we look at things, we can't just look at the carvings. You see, the painting style of this yellow plate may have absorbed the Arabic style of decoration in the Ming Dynasty, but it does not mean that it is an imitation.  Artistry. Moreover, the pattern on this plate is full of mistakes. " Having said this, he picked up the plate and introduced: "First of all, our country's landscape painting depends on whether the so-called heaven and earth are left in the painting.  The position of the entire painting paper. Guo Xi, a painter of the Song Dynasty, said: "What is the sky and the earth? It means that the sky is on the top and the earth is on the bottom. If the landscape is full, the painting will be full."  The whole frame is full, giving people a sense of occlusion and depression, and the layout is obviously failed. " "From an image perspective, the mountains are blocking the sky and the earth, which symbolizes arrogance and complacency. There is no room for promotion above and no retreat below. This kind of layout is not suitable for paintings.  "The landscape painting on this plate made this mistake, which makes people uncomfortable." "Secondly, it depends on whether the picture shows the ins and outs of the mountains. Mountains are like human connections. Mountains stretch far and wide, symbolizing human connections.  There are many, broad connections, and a strong foundation. The pictures are full of mountains and layers, with branches and ups and downs. If the picture does not clearly explain the ins and outs, it will appear short and thin, and the image will not be good. " "In addition, the layout of our country's landscape paintings is very particular.  There is a master and a slave, and the main peak represents the master.? If the mountain peaks are not prominent, the picture will lose its momentum and the mountains will lose their leader.  It symbolizes the owner's lack of ability and control ability.  However, the scenery in this painting has no distinction between primary and secondary. Many pictures are stacked on top of each other, making it look very heavy" Yuan Hongjian didn't think there were so many mistakes in the landscape painting on this plate just now. Now after listening to Uncle Wu,  After explaining, his inner impression of this plate immediately changed. The more he looked at it, the more unhappy he became. At this time, Chu Chen said: "Senior, although the carving of this plate is fine, it was carved by a machine.  , it looks very rigid if you look carefully.  Therefore, I believe that this is just a work created by the forger based on his own feelings and has no artistic value.  "    "Why!  It seems that I have to study more in the future!  " Yuan Hongjian shook his head and sighed, and said: "Since it is just a figment, let's just break it into pieces and see if it is made of resin.  Chu Chen quickly said: "Thissenior, after all, the material of this plate is just my family's opinion, why don't you think about it again?"  " Yuan Hongjian waved his hand and said: "No, even if it's not resin, the landscape painting on the plate can't be changed" Seeing that Yuan Hongjian insisted on this, and the plate was indeed not a valuable thing, Chu Chen  Someone brought a small hammer over. Yuan Hongjian smashed the plate open and found that it was indeed made of resin as Chu Chen said. Chu Chen picked up a fragment of the plate and looked at it.  , said: "This resin should be mixed with metal powder, and its weight is similar to that of porcelain. If the landscape paintings on it were more normal, it would easily make people look at it.  " Yuan Hongjian smiled naively and said: "Teacher Chu, from now on I will read more and buy less. If I am not sure, I will not buy.  " When Uncle Wu heard this, he laughed and said: "Old Yuan, I'm not telling you that. You didn't say that when you hit your eyes. I think you just don't have a long memory!  " Yuan Hongjian retorted: "I will also learn a lesson. At least now when I buy things, I won't touch anything worth more than 500 yuan.  Moreover, didn¡¯t Teacher Chu say before that in this industry, you must practice more.  The things I buy now are within my affordability. Even if I buy fakes, I just spend some money to buy experience.  As long as I don't pretend to understand like before, I will always make progress.  " Chu Chen quite agrees with Yuan Hongjian's attitude. Generally speaking, in the collection market, there are two types of people who are most likely to be targeted. The first is foreigners. Because they don't understand the situation of our collection market.  They don¡¯t know the market. They are used to comparing the domestic market with foreign markets and think things are cheap. From a starting point, they are not doing it for investment, but mainly for their own interests. They spend 3,000 yuan to buy a piece of porcelain that was exported to domestic sales during the Republic of China.  I feel very happy. The second type of people who are easy to distinguish are those who pretend to understand. They often learn some terminology and concepts in collections, emphasize certain characteristics of cultural relics, and rely on these characteristics and terminology concepts to buy things.  . They just don¡¯t think about it. You know that there are ¡°orange peel lines¡± in jade, so don¡¯t counterfeiters understand? These collectors are full of jargon. For example, when they say there are no black spots on the inner wall of porcelain, they say ¡°there is no dust flying¡±.  It seems very knowledgeable, but in fact these are just concepts, and collections are real. People who really do collections are very specific about some details and their descriptions are realistic. They don¡¯t play with these terms and concepts.  They just pretend to understand. When they buy things, they also like to talk about the price in a smart way. Chu Chen once met a man who took a fancy to a blue and white pen holder. The seller offered 10,000 yuan, so the man started talking.  , talking about 30 yuan. Chu Chen found it funny when he thought about it. You can still buy it when you talk about 30 yuan?  . But this guy thought he was quite capable, so he bought it for 30 yuan. When he saw it next door, he bought one and got one free for 15 yuan. So, if you want to be successful in the antique business, you must not understand it.  Pretend to understand, or just wait for a slap in the face! While he was talking, Chu Chen's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Mr. Fei's phone. This made him a little strange. Could it be that his Guqin was out of date?  What's the accident? The two exchanged pleasantries on the phone, and then Mr. Fei said, "Xiao Chu, I want to discuss something with you.  " "Mr. Fei, if you have anything to say, just say it.  " "That's right. I went back and thought about it yesterday, and I felt that it was a bit ill-considered. I think it would be better for your guqin to be tested with scientific equipment first, and then I can repair it. This way, it can be targeted. What do you think?  How about it?  " "Fei Lao, you are a professional, what do you think?So be it, I have no objection to it.  As for testing, I can only do one thing and two things at once, so I would like to trouble you to bother you.  " "What's the fuss about this? I really wish I could have a guqin like this for me to test every day" (To be continued) ps: Thanks to "Lone Wolf Wangtian" and "Li Xiaowu" for their contributions.  monthly pass
