Chapter 0317 – Folk Treasure Appraisal (VI)
Zhuang Rui’s words caused a silence in the lounge. According to the heart of several experts, they and others are just here to make a cameo appearance, there is no need to be so serious, right? It seems that this young man is just young! He can’t grow up without suffering some losses.
Don’t say you just guess this three color camel is fake, even if it is really fake, in case that the person who made the fake did not leave words in it how to do? You still can’t pick what’s wrong with it, then again, even if you prove it’s fake, can’t get a penny of benefit, want to counter, can’t prove it, have to shell out a million or so, this business seems normal people won’t do it.
Not to mention a few experts, that Zhu deputy director now look at Zhuang Rui’s eyes, as if looking at pandas in general, estimated that in the heart of this rich man eccentricity is more, nothing to take hundreds of thousands of dollars to smash the porcelain to listen to the sound, purely idle pain in the ass.
“Xiao Zhuang, this is something you have to consider clearly ah! You are still young. Occasionally look at the wrong object, are very normal, after a while will forget, no one can remember this.”
Sun old man and Uncle De hold good relations, and spoke out to persuade Zhuang Rui a few words, he thinks Zhuang Rui just said full words, now face can not hang, so insist on identifying the authenticity of the three-color camel.
In the antique circle, this kind of talk to get to the end of the things that can not stand, is also relatively common, some old friends because of differences in opinion, will often conflict, but this matter has not come to that extent, as long as Zhuang Rui step back, serve a soft also even if.
Not only Sun Lao, is Fatty Jin and Prof. Tian and others, also think that Zhuang Rui is out of this mentality, young people can not get off the stage, will inevitably make some young things, this is understandable.
In fact, Zhuang Rui certainly have the intention of the ingredients, but more, but is not willing to let this fake antique from their own hands into real objects, if you can not see even if, since the encounter, then he can not turn a blind eye.
As for compensation, that is simply impossible, in that raised camel’s front hoof inside the inner wall. Clearly written on the inside wall of the raised camel’s front hoof was a thumb-sized simplified “Xu” character, as long as the foot landed first when breaking the object, the horse’s foot would naturally be revealed.
“Right, Mr. Zhuang, you haven’t said what conditions you have?”
Of all these people in the room, Liu Jia was probably the only one who didn’t care about what kind of mentality Zhuang Rui had, having to identify the authenticity of this object, all she cared about was how to increase the ratings of the program, how to attract the audience’s attention.
To know, the planning of the program host is Liu Jia part-time, if the program fire up, maybe she will have the opportunity to transfer to the central station, said Beijing TV is good, single influence than the CCTV, the difference is not a star and a half a point.
Zhuang Rui smiled and said: “Since your station is not willing to bear the consequences of smashing treasure appraisal, then my condition is that this appraisal, although it can be held in the field. But it can’t be recorded, and of course, it can’t be broadcasted even more, this is also considered an exchange within our line!”
After Zhuang Rui’s words finished, Deputy Director Zhu’s face instantly became ugly, in his opinion, Zhuang Rui’s words were like hitting him in the face, aren’t you refusing to pay for it? Then I’ll pay for it myself, but I’m sorry, your right to record and broadcast is gone.
“Mr. Zhuang, such a wonderful live treasure appraisal, if it’s broadcasted, although it’s also a certain benefit to us, it will make the national audience remember you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!”
It is said that the authorities are obsessed, the onlooker is clear, Liu Jia is only concerned about her TV program, but do not think about it, Zhuang Rui smashed the treasure appraisal, if the object is fake, it is indeed beneficial to Zhuang Rui’s reputation, if the thing is real, can not pick the fault? That is not in front of the people of the country in front of shame!
This is the position is not the same, the perspective of the problem is not the same, Zhu deputy director of the feeling Zhuang Rui is to give him embarrassment, Liu big host in the use of fame and fortune tempted Zhuang Rui, and fat man Jin and other people, the idea is to think that the Zhuang Rui heart is not the bottom, so stay a back way. Even if the object is true, at most lose eight hundred thousand, always not to the national television audience in front of the disgrace to go.
In fact, in Zhuang Rui heart, and did not want to think so much curved road, although he decided to present the true face of this three color camel to the crowd, but the heart is also think that this smashing treasure appraisal is somewhat unreliable, the wind out of the too big.
Has always been relatively low-profile Zhuang Rui, this time to participate in the activities of the folk treasure identification, are the old man was ancient duck on the shelf, and the front to solve a few problems, has been recognized by the line of these experts, behind there is no need to show off, so this request, and the crowd thought of are not the same, but his idea if the experts present know, will certainly spit on him a face spit, are! To smash the treasure appraisal, actually said that he did not want to make a splash.
See Zhuang Rui’s attitude is very resolute, Liu Jia looked to his own leadership, Zhu deputy director of the station, although the heart of Zhuang Rui is very upset, but earlier has offended Zhuang Rui, this is to take this opportunity to make up for it, so said with a smile: “According to Mr. Zhuang’s intention to do it! Discuss with the treasure holder, this is considered a private exchange between them, right, Xiao Liu, you find someone to draft an agreement, write things clearly, this is good for everyone.”
Otherwise, how could it be said that Deputy Director Zhu and the driver who drove the car were about the same age, and he was able to become a leader? This leader looks at things differently, the first thing that Deputy Director Zhu thought of was to separate the responsibilities and save him from pulling the wool over his eyes afterward.
“Good. Xiao Qiao is studying law, let him draft an agreement well, the audience outside is not waiting for a short time, let’s go out!”
Although he didn’t fight for the right to record the broadcast, Liu Jia was a bit upset, but the party didn’t agree, the leader didn’t support, this work can’t be carried out ah! Can only go along with Zhuang Rui’s meaning, characterize this matter as an exchange between private collectors.
“Ladies and gentlemen, friends, now there is a very interesting thing, Mr. Zhuang suspected that this three-color camel is a forgery, while the treasure holder Mr. Liu insisted that his object is genuine, how can we distinguish between true and false fakes and shoddy? Mr. Zhuang made a suggestion, that is to break this three-colored camel, and then Mr. Zhuang will point out the basis for the forgery.”
“What? Breaking the three-colored camel? This is too much of a stretch, right?”
“That’s right, an object worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, who’s going to pay for it if it’s broken if it’s real?”
“You’re full of shit, aren’t you? Whoever breaks it of course who will pay for it, cut the crap or there will be no more fun to watch.”
“Right, right, old brother is right, this kind of hustle and bustle is a rare sight, all stop arguing, let’s listen to what the host has to say.”
Liu Jia said before the fall, the stage resounded with noisy chatter, who did not expect, the experts after discussion, will actually put forward such a drastic means to this thing if true, smashed but no place to pay ah! However, no one spoke out against it, after all, there is no cost to see the hustle and bustle, do not see for nothing ah!
“Everyone be quiet. This matter is after the Zhuang teacher and treasure holder agreed, they will sign an agreement, if this three color camel after identification is false, the treasure holder Mr. Liu will not pursue the responsibility of the object was broken, if the Zhuang teacher can not get the evidence to prove that this is a fake antique, then the Zhuang teacher will be compensated to Mr. Liu eight hundred thousand yuan. It can be said that this is a declaration of war against antique counterfeiting, regardless of whether this three-color camel is true or false, Mr. Zhuang and the treasure holder Mr. Liu’s behavior, are worthy of all of us to respect and learn.”
Liu Jia’s words are very provocative, some people have been applauded off-stage, but that is written in the age of twenty years of age of young people, those who are old and mature people are secretly muttering in their hearts: to take their own money to fight counterfeiting, purely eaten, there is something wrong with it!
Liu Jia on the stage to talk about this work, the film crew’s Xiao Qiao has drawn up an agreement, this agreement is very simple, things are clear, things are fake, that is a beat, everyone is fine, if the object is real, then I’m sorry, Mr. Zhuang, you have to pay out eight hundred thousand to listen to the sound of the porcelain landing.
And the agreement states so, is that if this three-color camel is true, Zhuang Rui compensation after the broken pieces of pottery, still belongs to the holder of the treasure Mr. Liu all, no matter win or lose, are equal to Zhuang Rui is nothing, even a piece of broken porcelain he can not touch, this time there have been people under the stage in the small voice cursed Zhuang Rui brain fault.
The scene is too late to find a computer to print, simply handwritten two, Zhuang Rui and the treasure holder Liu boss, are in the agreement signed his name, and Zhuang Rui is to take out of the clothes in the checkbook, the scene opened a eight hundred thousand yuan of cash checks, handed over to the Liu Jia to keep, his move, is to let people think, their hearts are also bottomless.
See both sides signed, and that young teacher Zhuang, has pulled out eight hundred thousand, all the hearts of the field, are raised, ears are also erected, waiting for Zhuang Rui to smash that piece of three-color camel, the sound is worth a lot of money ah! Maybe a landing, eight hundred thousand yuan will become someone else’s.
“Mr. Zhuang, hammer found, give you.”
Such a big object, smashed up is not convenient, the male host of the Shandong station, just ran to the hotel to borrow a hammer to go, during the two bets on the matter so said, led to the back of the vast and swarming with a group of guests watching the hotel, but also the conference room outside the perimeter of the room is watertight.
Zhuang Rui shook his head, did not pick up the hammer, said with a smile: “No hammer, or a free fall!”
His words caused a piece of the stage laughter, but do not know that if Zhuang Rui with a hammer, will be very difficult, it is difficult not to directly to the camel’s legs above the knock? That fools can see the problem, lifted up directly to the ground, as long as the mastery of the strength, so that the feet first landing is not very difficult.
Zhuang Rui to the surrounding survey a moment, shouted a few security guards, the ground on the thick red carpet to lift up, revealing the marble ground, and then use the red carpet around a two or three square meter size circle, which is to prevent the broken pieces of pottery splash around.
After seeing ready, Zhuang Rui walked to the table, hold the Tang three-color Bactrian camel Yong, come of the carpet surrounded by the circle outside, both hands will be this Tang three-color high up, hard to the ground fell down.
“Bang, snap.”
The large conference room, the crows are silent, only this dull after becoming crisp sound echoed in the entire conference room, but just now Liu Jia in the carpet under the stuffed a miniature microphone, which makes the Tang Sancai landing sound, spread throughout the conference room.
“Quickly take a look, see if it’s real or not?” This was shouted by the people at the treasure appraisal site.
“Too much fun, this treasure appreciation activity is good, turn around we also suggest the city to organize.” Those who said these words were the guests of the hotel.
Right after the Tang Sancai landed on the ground, the enthusiasm of everyone in the conference room was ignited, if it wasn’t for the armed police fighters maintaining order, I’m afraid that those people were going to rush up to the stage to take a look at what’s going on, even though they couldn’t understand it either.
“Alright, put the carpet down!”
To say that the most calm person on the scene, it has to be Zhuang Rui, from the time this Tang San Cai landed on the ground, it was doomed to the final result, because Zhuang Rui had already seen that the raised front hoof, was already broken open.
“Mr. Tian, all come over and help look at it! Mr. Liu, take a look too.”
Zhuang Rui squatted down and pretended to pick up a piece of broken pottery piece and looked at it, but deliberately stayed away from the piece of pottery piece with words on the foot, the wind was already out of the sails, and the final result, let someone else announce it.
“Xiao Zhuang ah! You see this tire is delicate and smooth, the color is slightly yellow, it should be the real object undoubtedly, alas, it’s a pity, this thing is broken, the world can be less such an object ah!”
Pottery and porcelain the same, outside is glazed, inside is the tire, Professor Tian picked up a piece of broken pottery, looked at, face showed a regretful look, he is engaged in research, to see such a delicate object was destroyed, naturally is heartbroken beyond words, to say that this craft of counterfeiting, really counted as the peak of excellence, and even inside the tire quality are imitated and really the same, can not let a person admire.
“This …… how is this possible, impossible ah?”
Just as Professor Tian’s words had just fallen, from the mouth of that treasure holder, Mr. Liu, came a cry of alarm that drew everyone’s attention.
“This is the character ‘Xu’?”
Mr. Liu’s mouth was very difficult to read out the word above the broken pottery piece in a semi-circular shape in his hand, that blue font was like a laser, flashing his eyes, although Mr. Liu was halfway out of the house to start playing with the collection, but for the traditional ‘Xu’ how to write the word, he would still know it, and the word in front of him made his heart fall into a deep abyss.
“What’s wrong? What happened on the stage?”
The few words that Boss Liu chanted from his mouth were wirelessly amplified by the miniature microphone on his collar, and the crowd on stage, not knowing what was happening, murmured.
