Chapter 0528 – Spring Festival Treasure Appreciation (I)
The appreciation of jade is much different from antiques. Antiques first look is the age, and then look at the production process, such as porcelain, to see whether the dynasty of the official kiln porcelain, whether it can reflect the social patterns at that time, and then such as painting and calligraphy class of antiques, we must look at whether it is from the hands of the masters, each have their own preoccupations.
Jade appreciation, but to first look at the material of jade, if the jade material is very poor, then even if the age of early, there is not much value, on the other hand, if the jade material for the very best, even if it is a modern process carved out, that is also worth a lot of money.
Positioned in front of Zhuang Rui’s more than twenty pieces of jade, poor material not to mention, and basically are the modern process of carving out, to get the market, is the stalls thirty to fifty dollars, not to mention the antique, is to call it a handicraft are a little bit not enough to qualify.
“Mr. Zhuang. How? Are all these jades fake?”
Seeing Zhuang Rui shaking his head and leaving that table, Liu Jia asked strangely, in her opinion, all these objects placed on the table looked like real.
Zhuang Rui nodded and said, “The jade are all real, but there is no ancient jade, they are all imitated by modern craftsmanship, the research value and market value are not high.”
“Mr. Zhuang, it’s the jade with modern craftsmanship, you also choose a piece to comment on! This will also allow the audience to learn a little bit about identifying jade.” When it came to antiques, it was probably jade that was closest to the lives of ordinary people.
In China, no matter young or old, all have the habit of wearing jade jewelry, so in several experts, it is necessary to have a jade appraiser, Liu Jia invited Zhuang Rui is not completely out of selfishness, after all, Zhuang Rui has that level, and also has the experience of TV treasure appraisal, from all aspects, are very suitable for this program.
“Okay! Just use the jade set in the box.”
Zhuang Rui pointed to a box on the table and said, this wooden box contained a set of jade artifacts that imitated the rituals of the Han Dynasty for sacrificing to the heavens, the material was average, it was carved out of green jade, however, in the styling of the figures, there were a few points that were different from the Han Dynasty jade work. Instead, it could be interpreted on the spot.
“Several teachers may all have to wait a while before they can pick it out, so I’ll go back over there and wait first!”
Zhuang Rui looked around, Fatty Jin and others are still concentrating on the identification of those objects, this program is to face the national audience, Zhuang Rui does not want to overstep his bounds again, after all, kind of pass to give the impression that it will be kind of loose, he managed his own acre of land on the line.
“Zhuang Rui, what ah? I’m waiting to watch the program here, how come it never starts?”
Ouyang Jun waited impatiently in the shooting hall and yelled when he saw Zhuang Rui.
Zhuang Rui looked at Ouyang Jun a glance, said in a bad mood: “Come on you, waiting to see my joke is more or less, these objects to participate in the treasure hunting need to be selected, it is estimated that there is still a while to wait …….”
Li Jia was chatting with Miao Fei Fei Xu Qing, after hearing Ouyang Jun’s words, he quickly said, “Mr. Zhuang, I’m really sorry, otherwise let’s do it this way! Let’s start filming those treasure holders who came to the scene, as for the other antiques. Let’s put it on tomorrow and the day after to shoot, what do you think?”
This matter is actually Hu Ming did not arrange, since those other people sent antiques need to be screened, it should be carried out in advance, but Hu Ming in the morning there is no arrangement at all, these experts are watching the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal, in vain a morning’s time, until now to record the program, only to think of this.
Although CCTV launched a treasure appreciation program in 2002, but this time as a New Year’s meal, seven consecutive days to meet with the audience, this is the first time, the experience is inevitably a bit insufficient, coupled with a change in the battlefield, it seems a bit chaotic is also normal.
Zhuang Rui on this look some baby face, see people three smile host is very good feeling, at the moment said with a smile, “into, Li director you look at the arrangement on the line, we all listen to you at your mercy ……”
“Mr. Zhuang, call me Li Jia on the line, I’m this director is a duck on the shelf, when not really, you a few first chat, I went to shout that a few teachers ……”
Li Jia waved his hand repeatedly, he can not afford to be Zhuang Rui’s this title, but turned his head, his heart straight wondered, this Zhuang teacher’s temper is very good ah! Director Hu didn’t know how to provoke him.
So this person ah! Good and bad are all in a thought, Hu Ming if it is not for Liu Jia some ideas, and see Liu Jia to Zhuang Rui intimate words, the heart is not angry, there will not be this undeserved disaster, the monk said: women are tigers, this is not false at all.
“How is it, Mr. Jin, found any good objects?”
Seeing Fatty Jin and the others return, Zhuang Rui greeted them.
“Where are the good things, there are a few prints, the good things that are now in circulation in the folklore, are really too few, your side probably didn’t come across any good jade, right?”
Fatty Jin while talking, while walking with Zhuang Rui and others to the guest position and sat down, the other several experts are also shaking their heads, their faces are a little disappointed, they came to participate in this program, but also feel that the face of the national audience, should be able to see some good stuff, I did not expect that most of them are still fakes.
Experts sitting in the guest seat, the front of this can be moved to a sensor door, in the door is also labeled with paper cuts and other traditional Chinese art and culture. And there is also a couplet: “Spring in whose home treasure identification with discerning eyes, love Tao here to hide treasures with high feelings.”
In front of the door on the glass floor, also has “treasure appreciation” two big words.
Li Jia will stand beside the induction door, and said to several people inside: “Several teachers, if you are ready, we will start shooting!”
From the camera’s point of view, this huge hall, just Zhuang Rui six experts, in fact, if you change the angle, you will find that this hall is missing a wall, and Ouyang Jun and others. Sitting there will be able to see the shooting situation in the hall.
“It’s okay.” Fatty Jin nodded on behalf of a few people.
“And please ask a few people to make way first, I’m going to walk out of this hall, and then after that door closes, a few teachers will take their seats ……”
Zhuang Rui and the others all stood up at the words and walked to the place where the camera couldn’t shoot, then the two of them, Li Jia who wore a traditional Chinese robe and Liu Jia who wore a big red cheongsam, walked from the hall to the induction door with joyful faces.
“Follow Li Jia to identify the treasure, seven parts story and three parts treasure, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Jia and I ……”
“Please allow me and Li Jia, first of all on behalf of the CCTV Spring Festival Treasure Appraisal program group of experts, and the entire staff of the program group, to the nation’s collectors, the nation’s television viewers, pay tribute to the New Year’s Day!”
The two celebrities began to host, and Zhuang Rui and others in the induction door closed, immediately after the staff led them to sit on the expert seat.
“Since we CCTV launched the treasure appreciation program, by the majority of TV viewers warm welcome, the program team in the last year, traveled to more than thirty provinces and cities across the country, today we take a break in Beijing ……”
Li Jia’s words did not fall, Liu Jia then said: “But this over the New Year, we also want to give the nation’s Tibetan friends dedication to a little program ah! So especially launched this Spring Festival treasure identification program, the past half a month or so, we to the country wide scattered heroes post, and finally we received tens of thousands of pieces of treasure ……”
“Not so many, right?”
Sitting on the expert seat Zhuang Rui listened to the dumbfounded, this is also too exaggerated it! In the work of one sentence, those things in the warehouse had doubled dozens of times.
“Some of them are photos, there is no physical object, this we started to select half a month ago.” Qian Jun, the old general manager of the Kyoto Auction House sitting next to Zhuang Rui, spoke up and gave Zhuang Rui an answer.
“Several teachers, it’s time to introduce you, pay attention to waving to the audience ……”
While Zhuang Rui and the others were chatting, a staff member stood at the dead center of the camera and gave a greeting to a few people.
“Alright. Let’s first recognize which six experts we have invited on the first day of the year ……”
That staff member’s words just fell, with the voice of Li Jia outside the door, the scene sounded a music, and then that induction door was ceremoniously opened behind the two hosts, and the camera was aimed at the six people sitting in the expert seats.
“This kid …… smile is also too fake, right?”
With the experience of the last Jinan TV treasure appreciation, Zhuang Rui is not flustered, quite a stage style of learning next to a few people, full of smiles and waving their hands to the camera, look at the side of the watch Ouyang Jun and other people are straight to laugh.
The camera just shot at Zhuang Rui and others, the camera turned off, and in the director’s seat, a long edited content immediately interspersed, which is the six experts’ photos and profiles.
“Sun Sheng, expert in the identification of miscellaneous pieces, researcher of the Capital Museum ……”
“Jin Xiyi, painting and calligraphy appraisal expert, associate researcher at the Capital Palace Museum ……”
“Tian Fan, ceramics appraisal expert, researcher of the Capital Palace Museum ……”
“Qian Jun, market appraisal expert, general manager of Beijing Kyoto International Auction Company ……”
“Liu Anan, bronze Buddha statue appraisal expert, researcher at the National Academy of Arts ……”
Not to mention, these teachers Zhuang Rui only know what their surnames are, the name is still the first time to hear, but the following screen clip out of the picture, it becomes his own.
“Zhuang Rui, jade class identification expert, director of the National Jade Association ……”
“Where was this …… this taken?”
The photo on the screen, is a picture of Zhuang Rui holding a jade pendant in his hand, above which Zhuang Rui is observing the object in his hand with a magnifying glass, although his face is young, but it is quite an expert’s model.
Zhuang Rui thought for a while, only to remember that this should be in Jinan when a picture, also do not know where the CCTV to turn out synthesized photos.
“Well, after the introduction of several experts, we also ushered in today’s first treasure holder, let’s see what treasures he brought?”
