    Thinking of this, Chu Chen secretly shook his head. The man's appearance was a typical example of a layman who came to invest and collect antiques excitedly, but ended up with a lot of money.  You have to say you have pity for people like n¡Ê. It is their own fault for causing such a result. Therefore, it makes sense to say that poor people must be hateful.  Chu Chen didn¡¯t have time to waste time with the man, so he reminded the man who was still stunned that he wanted to identify another thing.  The man scratched his forehead and opened his mouth to say something, but he swallowed his words again, and then said with a bitter smile: "Mr. Chu, take a look at this calligraphy work, it was written by Shi Tao.  "Shi Tao?" Chu Chen straightened his expression immediately after hearing this. Shi Tao was a famous monk in calligraphy and painting during the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. Let's not talk about other things. His status in the history of calligraphy and painting is unquestionable. At the auction,  Shi Tao's works have always been sought after by collectors, and their transaction prices have reached new highs.  Of course, at auctions, the paintings with high transaction prices are mainly Shi Tao's paintings, but this does not mean that Shi Tao's calligraphy works are not precious. In 1996, one of his fan paintings sold for more than five times.  At a price of more than 10,000 yuan, this is not a treatment that ordinary calligraphers can enjoy.  Seeing Chu Chen's solemn look, the man became happy, but when he thought about his things, he felt a little uneasy and said, "It's just a folding fan, I don't know how much it's worth." "A good fan is worth something.  Of course it's not cheap, but you have to see it before you know." Chu Chen replied while putting on his gloves, but felt a little strange in his heart.  Does this work have a different origin than the Buddha statue?  Or, when this person bought it.  Did you just buy the thing without even considering its value?  Chu Chen shook his head.  Without thinking too much, he carefully took the fan out of the brocade box and unfolded it, then observed it carefully.  Among the many calligraphers in the past dynasties, monk calligraphers also occupy a place.  Among them, the Sui and Tang Dynasties were the most developed periods of Buddhism in my country, and also the most developed period of monk calligraphy. Monk calligraphers emerged in large numbers. According to Tao Jiucheng's "History of Calligraphy", there were 28 outstanding calligraphy monks in the Tang Dynasty alone.  Compared with the Sui and Tang Dynasties.  During the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, outstanding calligraphy monks who truly created their own sect were rare, and the calligraphy achievements of the monk community were relatively bleak. This was somewhat related to the decline of Zen after the Song Dynasty.  During this period, most of those who became monks were not out of love for Buddhism, but for other reasons, such as seeking seclusion to avoid chaos, seeking food from poverty, etc.  It is conceivable that with such motivation to become a monk, the number of monks who are truly interested in the art of calligraphy will naturally decrease.  However, there were still a few monks who were more accomplished in calligraphy during this period.  Among them, monk Shi Tao and Bada Shanren were the two most outstanding ones.  Monk Shitao, also known as Monk Balsam Pear, is a descendant of King Jingjiang of the Ming Dynasty and the son of Zhu Hengjia, Yuanzong of the Southern Ming Dynasty.  After being changed in his childhood, he became a monk and wandered around for half his life.  His business is selling paintings.  , Shi Tao's calligraphy mostly contains official meanings in real scripts and running scripts, and has the style of writing scriptures in the Six Dynasties.  It is clear, healthy, smart and elegant.  At the same time, his calligraphy is also the same as his painting.  It is rich in mountain and game food, which reflects the wandering process of monk Shi Tao in his life.  The aura of landscape he acquired played a decisive role in the formation of his aesthetic consciousness.  Because of this, Shi Tao's calligraphy has a variety of faces.  Generally speaking, smart people can turn their sight into their own, which is different from those who face death every day.  This fan is a work of running script. The brushwork is round, thick and full of twists and turns. It is smart, lively and full of personality after learning from Yunlin.  The paper, bell seal and other aspects of this fan looked correct. At first, Chu Chen also felt that this work should be authentic. However, as the observation deepened, he felt that there was something wrong with the artistic conception in the calligraphy. This made him  He couldn't help but frown.  Seeing this situation, the man became a little anxious and asked quickly: "Teacher Chu, is there something wrong with this thing?" "I can't tell!" Chu Chen slowly shook his head, but he immediately raised his head and saw  The man's expression began to stiffen, and he quickly said: "Mr. Gan, don't worry, I mean, I have some questions about this work, and I can't judge whether it is authentic or not yet." The man's expression softened.  Some, he asked with some doubts: "Teacher Chu, can't you also see the authenticity of things?" Chu Chen said with a smile: "Experts cannot be jacks-of-all-trades or panacea. After all, human energy is limited, and it is impossible to be good at antiques.  So many fields are covered. " Antique experts generally only need to have unique insights and sophisticated research in one field, one department, and one type of matter. As long as they can quickly and accurately distinguish old and new ones when appraising antiques.  It is enough to distinguish the true from the false and the counterfeit.  As for saying that experts are a panacea or a master key, that is obviously impossible. Even ifZhuge Liang couldn't do it even if he was reincarnated.  Of course, for Chu Chen, who has superpowers, it is very simple to verify the authenticity of this thing. But for Chu Chen, if he uses superpowers whenever he encounters difficulties, he will definitely become dependent on it in the long run.  Therefore, now he wants to observe carefully and think of other methods when he really can't judge.  The man knew that Chu Chen¡¯s words made sense, but he couldn¡¯t waste time on the matter. Just when he was about to ask Chu Chen how to deal with it, he saw Uncle Wu and Zhu Dafu walking in together.  "Xiao Chen, keep busy." Zhu Dafu smiled and greeted Chu Chen.  Chu Chen didn¡¯t bother to exchange pleasantries. After saying hello, he told them what happened. When the two elders heard about such a thing, they also became interested. They quickly put on their gloves and took out a magnifying glass to examine it carefully.  After a while, the two elders looked at everything, and then the three of them walked aside to discuss.  Uncle Wu frowned and said in a low voice: "Xiao Chen, have you read it wrong? I think this fan should be fine. The brushwork matches Shi Tao's style. I think it should be an authentic work." Zhu  Dafu shook his head and objected: "Old Wu, I have the same opinion as Xiaochen. There is indeed something wrong with this fan. Specifically, I think the spirit of this character is a bit scattered and the energy is a bit weak. Judging from the bell seal  "Blind Venerable" was his nickname in his later years. At this time, his calligraphy was already very sophisticated. If it were authentic, these two points should not appear at all. " Chu Chen also nodded and said: "I also think there is a problem in this regard.  My master also has a calligraphy work by Shi Tao in his later years. Although the style is different, the spirit and spirit of the calligraphy cannot be changed." Uncle Wu also seemed a little hesitant when he heard what they said. Of course, this was mainly because he was a master of calligraphy.  He specializes in porcelain, and although he has dabbled in calligraphy and painting, he is not very proficient in it, otherwise he would definitely argue with his arguments.  "Okay, I'm not very proficient in calligraphy, but how can you tell the master about this kind of result?" Chu Chen and Zhu Dafu looked at each other, both of them were a little helpless. In fact, this is also a common thing in appraising calligraphy and painting works.  If it is quite different from the original, or the characteristics are obvious, then it is easy to judge, but how can you tell others about something as subjective as spirit and energy?  Can it be said that I think there is something wrong with the harmony of this work, so I judge it to be a fake?  When you meet someone who is quite angry, it would be weird not to spit in your face.  Now, if you want to find out its authenticity, the best way is to invite several experts for consultation.  However, although Chu Chen could do this, the owner of the thing was not related to him, so why should he bother so much?  "Xiao Chen, how are you going to explain to him?" Uncle Wu asked.  "To be honest, let him decide how to deal with it." Chu Chen chuckled and prepared to use his powers to identify it for a while, so as to satisfy his curiosity. Of course, the result cannot be told to everyone.  The two elders nodded. Although they also wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, they had the same idea as Chu Chen. There was no need to go through so much trouble for a stranger.  Besides, among antiques, although there are not many such things whose authenticity cannot be confirmed, there are still quite a few. If you have to work hard to understand each item, you will be exhausted.  Just as everyone was about to turn around, Zhu Dafu asked: "By the way, have you ever thought about it, if this is not the original, who could have imitated it?" Uncle Wu laughed and said, "I think Zhang Daqian is the most likely.  You know, his imitation of Shi Tao has fooled even Huang Binhong. "As mentioned before, the calligraphy and painting master Zhang Daqian is not only good at painting, he is also a first-class master in imitating antique calligraphy and painting. When he first became famous, people were not surprised by him.  What about his paintings, but the works he copied from Shi Tao are lifelike and almost exactly the same as the original ones.  This similarity is reflected in the charm, brushwork, composition, etc., just like the resurrection of Shi Tao.  Zhang Daqian¡¯s imitation of Shi Tao has led to many collectors, calligraphers and painters being fooled and deceived. The story of Zhang Daqian deceiving Huang Binhong is even more widely circulated.  It was said that Huang Binhong had a painting by Shi Tao, and Zhang Daqian wanted to borrow it back for careful copying and study, but Huang Binhong refused.  Zhang Daqian was a little dissatisfied, thinking that even if you refused to lend it to me, I could still imitate Shi Tao's paintings.  So I copied a Shi Tao hand scroll and placed it with my teacher Zeng Xi.  As we all know, Zhang Daqian's teachers Zeng Xi and Huang Binhong were old friends, so not long after, Huang Binhong went to Zeng Xi's house and saw this painting. He thought it was an authentic work by Shi Tao and couldn't put it down, so he decided to buy it. Zeng Xi asked Huang Binhong and Zhang Daqian to  negotiate.  Zhang Daqian was very proud when he saw that Huang Binhong wanted to collect his imitation of Shi Tao, but he did not ask for money. Instead, he said to Huang Binhong, use this painting to exchange for the Shi Tao that he borrowed from you last time. Huang Binhong immediately agreed, and that's it, Zhang Daqian  ??I exchanged my imitation Shi Tao for a real work of Shi Tao.  ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Zhang Daqian collected many pieces of Shi Tao's calligraphy and paintings.  Among them, there are countless examples of Zhang Daqian exchanging the fake for the real.  Chu Chen doesn¡¯t know whether this story is true or false. Because the senior has passed away, he can¡¯t make any guesses. However, if the story is true, it will affect his impression of Zhang Daqian to some extent.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster! ps: Finally, I did not make a mistake.
