Lin Yaodong solemnly took the cup in the box into his hand and observed it carefully.
The first thing he observed was the bottom center, where he saw"Da Ming Chenghua Year System" written in regular script on both sides of the blue and white columns in two lines and six characters.
The font looks a little skewed. Observe carefully, every time the pen tip turns slightly slower, there will be a concentration of drill material when the pen is stopped.
Seeing this unique style, he couldn't help but feel shocked, because judging from the style, this was indeed the style of the Chenghua Dynasty.
Throughout the Chenghua dynasty, the inscriptions are all of this immature and slightly clumsy type.
This is also a major feature of Chenghua porcelain, and it is not easy to imitate.
Therefore, judging from the style, this cup is probably the Chenghua chicken vat cup.
To prove whether this is an authentic product, the body and glaze are the main basis for judgment.
Lin Yaodong observed carefully and saw that the fetus was white and delicate, thin and translucent. It could be said that the fetus was as thin as paper.
After looking at the body, let’s look at the glaze again. The white glaze on this cup is duck egg blue, soft and smooth, and the exterior and interior are the same. This is also the characteristic of the genuine article.
Look at the lifelike postures of the two groups of chickens on the cup.
In the painting, the mountains and rocks are beautiful and the orchids are green, creating a scene of prosperity.
At this time, Lin Yaodong was eighty or ninety percent sure that this was a genuine product.
But after all, it’s something worth hundreds of millions, so it’s better to be cautious.
So he took out his phone and dialed Wu Gang, and the call was connected.
Lin Yaodong said:"Old Wu, Brother Zhao has made something again. It looks real to me.
Please invite Mr. Qiu, the porcelain expert from your auction house, to come over."
After finishing speaking, Lin Yaodong hung up the phone.
In less than twenty minutes, Wu Gang hurried over with an old man.
The old man was Qiu Xiaojun, a famous porcelain appraisal expert and consultant to major auction houses.
After introducing Zhao Yun and Qiu Xiaojun to each other, Wu Gang hurriedly said:
"Where is the thing? Take it out and take a look."
After saying that, he and Qiu Xiaojun quickly came to the table, and then at Zhao Yun's signal, each of them picked up a chicken bowl cup and started observing attentively.
"It really deserves to be called a divine product!"After a long time, Wu just sighed:
"No wonder the ancients would say,"The best color paintings on ancient porcelain are from the Chengkiln. The painters are skilled, the painting materials are exquisite, and the touches are vivid. There are those who are better than painters." When I saw this pair of cups today, I knew that Chenghua Dou It is no exaggeration to say that the Colorful Chicken Cup has such a good reputation!"
At this time, Qiu Xiaojun said:"There is no difference in quality between this pair of cups and the one sold at Sotheby's auction in Hong Kong in 2014. The only difference is the pattern. The patterns on the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup are all the same. It was specially and carefully drawn by a court painter.
The shape and pattern of the cups are somewhat different from the shape of the chicken, which proves that the pair of chicken cups are genuine.
If they are exactly the same, it goes without saying that one of them must be an imitation, or simply a fake. When Wu
Gang heard that Qiu Xiaojun confirmed that the pair of chicken pot cups were genuine, he excitedly said to Zhao Yun:"Brother, you are so lucky. When you decorate a house, you can come across such rare and famous porcelain. Who can say that you are not the God of Wealth?" I'm worried about my father's reincarnation!"
Zhao Yun chuckled and said:"There is no way, I can't stop luck when it comes!
Wu Gang then said to Zhao Yun:"Brother, you are going to send this pair of chicken pot cups to our auction house for auction.
I guarantee that the price will be more than one billion for you." Zhao Yun said:"
Brother, stop it and don't even think about it. This kind of treasure is hard to come by. I want to collect it.""
The viewers in the live broadcast room thought they were hallucinating when they heard Wu Gang say one billion.
"Did I hear you correctly? Did Manager Wu mean one billion?"
"Did Manager Wu say an extra zero?"
"You heard it right upstairs, I also heard it was one billion!"
"Isn’t this thing just two cups? How can it be worth so much money?"
……
Zhao Yun saw the barrage in the live broadcast room, so he said to Qiu Xiaojun:
"Teacher Qiu, the fans in my live broadcast room all want to know why the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup is so valuable. Please tell me."
Qiu Xiaojun nodded and said:"The Doucai Chicken Cup is valuable not only for its artistic value, but also because of the long-lasting love between Emperor Chenghua and Concubine Wan Gui behind it.
The Tumu Fort Incident occurred in the Ming Dynasty, and Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, the father of Chenghua Emperor Zhu Jianshen, was captured by Wala.
In order to stabilize the state of the country, the later Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu inherited the throne.
Zhu Jianshen's position as the crown prince was abolished. During this gloomy time,
Zhu Jianshen truly realized what it means to be blessed by fate and what it means to be in troubled times.
Even the maids and eunuchs who once served him left one by one. Apart from himself, there is only one palace maid named Wan Zhen'er, who is 17 years older than him, who has been by his side to take care of him. The two of them have developed feelings for each other as they get along day and night.
Later, Zhu Qizhen was released, and when Zhu Qiyu was seriously ill, he launched a coup to seize the door.
Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne again, and Zhu Jianshen was re-established as prince.
The glory reappeared, but the miserable experience of being dependent on each other when he was young was deeply hidden in his mind.
Therefore, after Zhu Jianshen succeeded to the throne, he wanted to make Wan Zhen'er the queen, but the queen mother and the ministers opposed it.
So she had no choice but to make Wan Zhen'er a noble concubine. Wan Zhen'er was a noble concubine at that age, but she enjoyed exclusive favor in the harem.
Later, Concubine Wan Gui gave birth to a prince. But not long after, the little prince died.
Concubine Wan Gui was so sad that she cried all day long and drank to drown her sorrows.
In order to comfort his beloved woman, Emperor Chenghua ordered craftsmen to make this set of exquisite colorful chicken cups.
Two groups of hens are painted on the cup, separated by peonies, orchids and a stone lake.
In the picture, the rooster and the hen lead the chicks to forage in the wild. The whole picture symbolizes a harmonious family.
The happy atmosphere of parents and children also hints at Emperor Chenghua's yearning for family happiness, and this small colorful chicken tank The cup has also become the best testimony of their love.
After hearing Teacher Qiu’s explanation,
Wu Gang saw that the water friends in Zhao Yun’s live broadcast room were curious about his valuation. He explained:"
On April 8, 2014, at Sotheby’s Important China in Hong Kong At the Spring Auction of Porcelain and Crafts, a
Ming Dynasty Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup was bought by Liu Yiqian, a collector in Shanghai, China, for a whopping 280 million yuan.
In the antique industry, the value of a pair is at least three times the value of one.
In addition, it has been almost ten years since the last auction, so the estimated price is one billion, which is much higher if it goes to auction."
The fans in the live broadcast room were buzzing after hearing Wu Gang's explanation.
"Good guy, each anchor is bigger than the other now, and they all started in the ten digits!"
"In my entire life, I have only seen so much money during the Qingming Festival!"
"The anchor has just accomplished the ten small goals of the richest man?"
……
At the same time, hot searches appeared again on the Internet
【A certain anchor picked up a colorful chicken vat cup worth ten small goals!】
【Why is the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup so valuable?】
……
A series of hot search headlines continue to attract netizens to watch.
A certain singer surnamed Wang almost fainted in the toilet from crying. His divorce didn't even make the headlines. Why is it so difficult to make headlines?
