"Kangxi imitated Yongle?" Fu Hua pretended to be puzzled: "What's going on?"
Zhu Yunhua smiled and said: "This is mainly because of the high reputation of Yongle Tianbai. Some official kilns of later generations have imitated this, especially during the Kangxi and Yongzheng periods of the Qing Dynasty, mainly the Emperor Kangxi and Yongzheng at that time. The emperor liked this kind of porcelain very much, and it was difficult to find the authentic one at once. The official kiln was copied a lot. Yours is a copy of the Kangxi official kiln, and its value is very high."
"It turned out to be like this," Fu Hua glanced at Zhu Yunhua and asked, "Then how do you distinguish between genuine and imitation products? Dong Zhu, don't think I'm long-winded, I really want to know about this. Of knowledge."
"It's okay," Zhu Yunhua said with a smile, "We are an exchange between Tibetan friends, why should I think you are verbose. Let me tell you this, the porcelain of each era has the characteristics of that era. The same is true for imitations. Your Kangxi imitation of Yongle has obvious characteristics of the Kangxi dynasty, so I can accurately date it. You see..."
Zhu Yunhua picked up the small bowl of Kangxi imitating Yongle, turned the bowl over, pointed at the bottom of the bowl, and said: "The technology of reincarnation in the Qing Dynasty has been very mature, making the bottom of the utensils close to reincarnation. In order to achieve a translucent effect. But the bottom of the real Yongle Sweet White is not so perfect. Its white glaze is thicker and not translucent."
Fu Hua smiled and said, "So there are so many tricks in it. You are so knowledgeable. It really made me insightful."
"Actually, it's nothing," Zhu Yunhua said with a smile, "I just played Yongle Tianbai for a little longer. If you play for a long time, you will know everything well. Eh, you didn't mean to bring it. Have you got three pieces of Yongle Sweet White? How about those two pieces?"
Fu Hua smiled and said, "Actually, the two pieces that Zhu Dong had seen before are the two Shufu porcelains I bought at the auction. It seems that those two pieces are less like genuine Yongle sweet and white pieces. But I happened to see the four characters in the seal script made by Yongle Nian under the glaze of the two pieces of Shufu porcelain under the light, and I was a little strange, so I brought it here and wanted Dong Zhu to take a look at it for me."
I just heard that Fu Hua said that the other two pieces were the Shufu porcelain bought at the auction that day. Zhu Yunhua's face was obviously disappointed, but Fu Hua said that the two Shufu porcelains were made of Yongle Year under the glaze. His eyes lit up all of a sudden, but then the light dimmed. He looked at Fu Hua and said, "Anyway, you have already brought it. Just show it to me."
Fu Hua took out the two small bowls and placed them on the table in front of Zhu Yunhua's eyes. Zhu Yunhua turned on his bright flashlight again and took the small bowl in his hand and looked at it carefully. Fu Hua noticed that while watching, Zhu Yunhua made a swallowing action, but this action was very concealed. It seemed that Zhu Yunhua was imposing a cover and didn't want him to know it.
Fu Hua was taken aback, and he asked why Zhu Yunhua had to cover it up so forcefully. Could it be that these two pieces were not Shufu porcelain, but genuine Yongle Tianbai? If that's the case, you can buy tens of millions of things for fifty thousand yuan, and then what you missed would be too big.
After watching for a long time, Zhu Yunhua put down the two bowls a little bit reluctantly, then looked up at Fu Hua, smiled and said: "Fu Dong, I remember you two things for 50,000 yuan. Right?"
Zhu Yunhua did not say whether the porcelain was genuine Yongle Tianbai, but asked him if he bought it for 50,000 yuan. Fu Hua became more convinced that these two things are really Yongle Tianbai, because if it is fake, Zhu Yun Hua said directly. Asking the price definitely meant that he wanted to buy it from him. First, I mentioned the purchase price of 50,000 yuan, because I didn't want Fu Hua's lion to open his mouth and open the price too high.
Fu Hua nodded and said, "Yes, Dong Zhu, you have watched it for so long now. I wonder if you can be sure that this thing is Yongle Tianbai?"
Zhu Yunhua hesitated for a while, then smiled and said: "It is really Yongle sweet and white. Look at this thing, there is a clear water-green color on the glaze. The four-character seal script is very casual, not like a clear copy. So regular, thick and moist glaze, this is unique to Yongle Tianbai. I have to say that your luck is really good, the first time you shot, you picked up such a big leak. If Liu Zhifeng, the chairman of Baodi Auctions Knowing this will definitely make you vomit blood. But also, many times in the antiques business, novices can pick up big bargains, but veterans don't have such good luck."
Fu Hua understood why Zhu Yunhua hesitated. He was reluctant to confirm that Fu Hua bought the authentic product of Yongle Tianbai by mistake. This might really make him a little bit envious and jealous, but at the same time he respects his identity. It's not good to deliberately say the truth is fake. He smiled and said, "How to say?"
Zhu Yunhua smiled and said: "Let me tell you another thing about picking up a big leak. It's a real thing. A friend of mine didn't know anything about antiques. At that time, the market in Panjiayuan was just started. He often goes shopping with his friends when he is idle, but because he doesn’t understand, there is a more cautious person who never buys anything."
"One time, in the process of blindly turning over, an old painting by a stall owner was broken, and the stall owner was corrupted by 20,000 yuan. At that time, 20,000 yuan was really valuable. He was very regretful and never went to Panjiayuan again."
"A few years later, a friend from an auction company went to his house to play. When he was fine, he looked at some of his paintings and calligraphy. As a result, he saw this old painting and found that it was an authentic piece of the great calligrapher Fu Shan in the Qing Dynasty. Fu Shan is well-known for his calligraphy, but paintings are rare, so his friend took this painting to auction and sold it for several million."
"Fu Dong's matter is actually similar to that of my friend, and I don't understand it, but it is surprisingly lucky that I bought something that others could not collect with all their hard work."
Fu Hua smiled and said: "It's just a coincidence. In fact, it's like what you said. I thought these two things were fake, and I was thinking about how to return it to Baodi Auction Company."
"Fortunately, you didn't return it to them," Zhu Yunhua said with a smile, "otherwise they would be really happy. Oh, Fu Dong, I wonder if you can cut love with these two things?"
Zhu Yunhua said that but he was stunned by Fu Hua. Originally, he thought that the three porcelain pieces he brought were all fake Yongle sweet white, so he never thought about the possibility of making a move. Now Zhu Yunhua asked him if he could cut love, but he was not prepared at all.
Should I sell these two pieces of porcelain to Zhu Yunhua? Fu Hua thought to himself. It is said that he is not fascinated by porcelain, even if it is Yongle Tianbai, he does not feel reluctant to give it up, so it is not impossible to sell it to Zhu Yunhua.
But if you sell it directly to Zhu Yunhua, you have to think about some of the key points in advance. First of all, it was sold directly to Zhu Yunhua. The relationship between him and Zhu Yunhua was just a business relationship, and a friendly relationship would not be established between the two parties.
Moreover, Zhu Yunhua knew that he bought the pair of porcelain bowls for 50,000 yuan. If they were sold to him at a price of ten million yuan, it would appear to be a fair deal on the surface, but Zhu Yunhua would definitely have a psychological gap on this. He must have a feeling of being made money by himself. Not only would he not be grateful at that time, but he would feel that he was taken advantage of.
Conversely, if he sells it to Zhu Yunhua at a price of 50,000 yuan, Zhu Yunhua will not accept it under normal circumstances, because the profit is too large, and Zhu Yunhua will feel that he owes himself a lot. Favors. For a big man like Zhu Yunhua, the debt is easy to pay, but the debt of favor is a huge burden, and he will definitely not accept it.
After much deliberation, Fu Hua felt that it would be better not to sell it to Zhu Yunhua at the moment. For the time being, he and Zhu Yunhua have not yet established a deep friendship, and continue to hold the pair of Yongle sweet white bowls. He has something in his hand that can make Zhu Yunhua worry about. Maybe Zhu Yunhua will Instead, I came to find a chance to get close to him.
Thinking of this, Fu Hua smiled and said: "I'm sorry, Zhu Dong, you said, I should give you this sweet pair of Yongle for nothing, but you know when you watch the preview. Yes, I think this pair of small bowls is very close to each other, so I can only say sorry to you."
"Don't rush to reject me," Zhu Yunhua said with a smile, "Listen to my offer first. I can buy it at the market price of 20 million. Fu Dong, I made 20 million with 50,000, right? It’s a bargain for you."
The more Zhu Yunhua wanted to buy, the more Fu Hua felt that he should be stretched, so that he would want to get closer to himself. He smiled and said: "I also know that I have made a lot of money, but Zhu Dong, I think collecting this thing is a hobby, I don’t know if you feel that way, sometimes you can have a favorite The collection will give people a great sense of psychological satisfaction. As for how much this item is worth, it is not the focus of consideration."
When Fu Hua said this, he made it clear that he did not want to sell the Yongle Sweet White Porcelain Bowl. Zhu Yunhua smiled helplessly, and said, "I understand what you said. I also do it like this. A favorite collection, I will be in a good mood for a long time. Since you are not willing to cut love, then forget it."
When Fu Hua saw Zhu Yunhua's uneasy look, he was funny in his heart, saying that you don't worry, I will definitely sell this thing to you in the end, and I will only give you this opportunity when I need your help.
