Antiques with golden eyes

Taking out his mobile phone, Shen Yu called Xu Duofu, "Fat man, please don't talk for now. Just listen to me. If I read the above picture of "Lanting Preface" in the Ming Dynasty correctly, it should be a mistake. I I want to pick it up, but I need your cooperation.

Xu Duofu really didn't make a sound, he just hummed like a mosquito.

"You go up on stage now, pretend you like the calligraphy very much, and then choose a suitable time to wave to me, and then I will go up. That's it, you hang up first."

Xu Duofu hung up the phone, waited for a few seconds, stood up, stretched, and then walked listlessly toward the viewing table. He sat in the first row of the VIP seats and walked up in a dozen steps.

As soon as Xu Duofu came up, Baoyuan's assistants quickly opened the door for him. After studying it for a few seconds, he began to circle around the clear calligraphy on the rosewood table, with expressions on his face sometimes confused and sometimes confused. Occasionally, he will show some expressions of appreciation.

He brilliantly presents the psychology of liking an antique but not understanding it. It can be said that his acting skills are first-rate.

Zhang Zongbao's face flashed with joy when he saw this. Zhang Zongbao didn't know Xu Duofu's appraisal skills, but judging from the last time he was deceived in Zhuangyuan Town, it shouldn't be very good.

The Xu family has a lot of money, and Xu Duofu is the only heir. Maybe he can take pictures of the copybooks when he is happy.

However, the joy on his face froze within half a minute, because Xu Duofu waved in the direction where Shen Yu was sitting down the stage, meaning to come over quickly and help me take a look.

Zhang Zongbao smiled to himself in his heart, "I forgot that this boy from the Xu family shares the same sorrows as Mr. Shen's only grandson. Alas, this painting of Mingben Lanting may not be auctioned today."

Shen Yu took off his suit and handed it to Pei Yuqin, then rolled up the cuffs of his shirt while walking up to the viewing platform.

Pei Yuqin felt happy when she saw that Shen Yu was indeed using the iPhone 4s she had given him, and then carefully removed some hair and threads stained on Shen Yu's suit, just like a wife tidying up her husband's clothes. .

This made some people around her who knew her so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.

Seeing something strange?

Gaogu Yizhihua, why is Miss Pei, known as the cold and arrogant devil, such a little woman today?

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been unbelievable. People in Chuzhou who wanted to chase her could line up from the beginning of the Qingshui River Bridge to the end of the bridge.

Her father, the shipping king, even said that in the future, Pei Yuqin will own half of the Pei family's property a hundred years from now, and she will be the one to choose it, while her twin brother will inherit the rest.

In other words, Pei Yuqin can inherit at least more than 8 billion in property from the Pei family, which is an astronomical figure.

It can be said that once you become the son-in-law of the Pei family, you no longer need to work hard in this life, you only need to work hard and spend money.

Therefore, many young heroes in the hall looked at Shen Yu with a somewhat unkind look, full of envy, jealousy and hatred.

If looks could kill, Shen Yu would probably have died.

……

"Shen Yu, is this the legendary double hook filling in ink? It is said in "Danqian Zonglu: Calligraphy Shadow Book" written by Yang Shen, a talented man in the Ming Dynasty, that people in the Six Dynasties were adept at calligraphy, and copying was particularly popular.

"It's called the outline filler, which is today's double hook.

"What is the influence of the shadow calligrapher today?" Xu Duofu asked Shen Yu in a low voice. He seemed to be an aristocratic son, but in fact he could be said to have read thousands of books and was erudite.

Of course, there is no reason for him not to learn. After all, he will inherit the Xu family's fortune of more than 10 billion in the future. How can a person who knows nothing maintain such a huge family fortune?

Mr. Xu would not agree in the first place.

"That's right! This copybook uses the double hook filling method."

Shen Yu answered while observing the Mingben Orchid Pavilion. This painting is 32 centimeters in length and 120 centimeters in width. The quality is not very good. Mainly because it is a little greasy due to smoke and dust over the years. There are also some cracks at the edges of the paper, which makes the overall appearance poor. It looks very dilapidated.

But if you take a closer look, you will find that there is no damage to the place with the words, so overall there is no loss of points.

This copybook is not so much an imitation of Shenlong as it is a depiction of it.

All the wonderful changes in "Orchid Pavilion Preface" such as hiding the front, breaking the peak, flying white, hanging the pen, returning the front, pulling the thread, reflecting the belt, turning from square to round, from round to square, floating like floating clouds, and powerful like a startling dragon are all reflected. .

The ink, style, and charm are all top-notch.

Why do we say that it resembles the description? Because it is not based on what is written but based on what is described.

The copying of calligraphy and calligraphy is different from calligraphy and painting. The copying of calligraphy and calligraphy is to put the original work in front of you, then observe its size, movement, and the intensity of the ink, and then write it yourself.

Copying means tracing, and it also has a famous name, which is: double hook and ink filling.

Double hook filling is also called "double hook filling", also known as Xiangtuo.【xiǎng tà】

Specifically, a piece of translucent paper is used to cover the original work, and the double hook is copied stroke by stroke according to the movement of the font, forming a hollow character.

Then use the same ink to fill in the blank spaces one by one.

If you are skilled in this technology, it can be regarded as the most realistic way to copy ancient Dharma books. There is a saying that it is "a level lower than the original", even though it is only a little lower than the original.

It sounds similar to when I was a kid, I used that kind of transparent paper to write stroke by stroke on the so-and-so calligraphy book I bought.

But one thing is that their paper is a rare treasure. I don’t know what it was called at that time, but now it is called hard yellow paper in the antique circle.

Legend has it that if this kind of paper is heated or wetted, and then evenly coated with yellow wax, the paper will become as transparent as glass, and everything under the paper can be revealed.

Double hook filling requires a certain foundation of calligraphy, otherwise it will not work.

The minimum requirement for choosing paper must be that it can cover the original work so that the words below can be clearly seen.

Then place the two pieces of paper at the same time in a bright window or a place with good light, and trace against the light.

Shen Yu once went with his grandfather to the home of an old friend in southern Guangdong Province, and saw a copybook in the old man's home with a handwriting that was very similar to this one.

The same cocoon paper, the same writing style.

That calligraphy was an authentic work by Wen Zhengming, one of the Four Masters of the Ming Dynasty, so this post is probably also an authentic work.

Wen Zhengming's poems, essays, calligraphy and paintings were all excellent, and he was known as the "Four Masters". Although Tang Yin was one of the four Ming masters, he was more talented and more famous in modern times, but his status in real history Not even a little bit worse than Wen Zhengming.

Because Wen Zhengming has an extremely calm personality and works the hardest, he is most loved by his teacher Shen Zhou.

Wen Zhengming's calligraphy was famous for his proficiency in all calligraphy styles, especially running script and small regular script. Among the calligraphers, he respected Wang Xizhi the most, and he loved to copy "Lanting Preface" throughout his life.

He was a very old man. He was ninety years old. One year before his death, he even wrote a "Lanting Preface" in his own handwriting. It can be said that the writing style is directly after Youjun's original work.

Wen Zhengming and Xiang Yuanbian's family were family friends, and Shenlong was in Xiang Yuanbian's family. Although Wen Zhengming had passed away at that time, judging from this, Wen Zhengming probably met Shenlong before Xiang Yuanbian purchased it. The authentic work of Shenlong.

This speculation is not unfounded.

In the Ming Dynasty, the royal family did not like to collect calligraphy, painting and calligraphy, and most of the original works were in the hands of civilian literati. Wen Zhengming was the leader of the Wu School of painting after Shen Zhou, and was also the first person in the literati circle and connoisseurship circle at that time.

His antique appraisal skills are unparalleled. There are many authentic works by ancient celebrities in his family, especially those from Zhao Mengfu and the four Yuan families. Many people ask Wen Zhengming to authenticate them.

If he wants to go to any house and see any authentic ancient calligraphy and painting, it's just a matter of words, and he will even feel honored.

It was through the recommendation of his son Wenpeng that Xiang Yuanbian went to the home of the great writer Wang Shizhen to view the "Picture of Immortal Mountains and Pavilions" by Liu Songnian, one of the four masters of the Southern Song Dynasty. Because he did not bring any money at the time, he did not buy it. Later, he was reluctant to part with it after returning home. After spending a huge sum of money and accompanied by Wen Peng, I finally bought it.

From this small incident, we can see the huge influence that the Wen family had in the literati circle at that time.

After silently reciting the treasure appraisal, a dark blue treasure light as big as a glutinous rice ball quickly condensed three inches above the copybook.

"That's it!"

"Although the title and signature of this copy of Wen Zhengming's "Lanting Preface" are unknown, its value is at least over ten million. But how can we successfully photograph this authentic Ming copy?" Shen Yu thought carefully.
