Live shop exploration: 200 yuan to challenge the antique street

Chapter 277 Li Bai, Gao Shi, Du Fu,

"30 billion!"

"31 billion!"

"..."

"40 billion!"

The price of the painting's authentic work "The Picture of Sending the Son of the Heavenly King" climbed steadily, and finally stopped at the price of 40 billion.

Although Chu Ang and the others were surprised, it was reasonable. After the Tang Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties and most of the literati and poets all admired Wu Daozi's paintings very much.

Take the famous modern painter Xu Beihong as an example. For an authentic painting by Wu Daozi - "87 Immortal Scrolls", he went bankrupt and even sold off his wife's dowry, which shows his dedication to his paintings.

In today's antique market, Wu Daozi's authentic works are also priceless. A random painting can sell for at least a few billion yuan, and buyers don't have to worry about smashing their hands.

Even Wu Daozi's paintings copied by famous painters in the Song and Yuan dynasties could sell for hundreds of millions of yuan.

It is no exaggeration to say that if someone has an authentic painting by Wu Daozi, at least two generations will not have to worry about their lives.

In the Old Palace Museum in Sijiu City, Wu Daozi's paintings are even considered to be the treasures of the museum.

"40 million once!"

"40 million times!"

"Oh!"

Accompanied by a crisp sound of falling hammers, "The Picture of Sending the Son of the Heavenly King" was finally sold at a sky-high price of 40 billion, and the auctioneer was none other than a member of the Ho family, the king of gambling in Macau.

"People from the He family took the photo away... After the death of the old gambling king, the museum left by the gambling king is still in operation!" Zhao Chengjin murmured. Although he also wanted to take this painting, but he didn't have enough funds, but it is not bad for the He family in Macau to collect it.

The former gambling king has a very good reputation both overseas and in the mainland. His old man has donated precious cultural relics lost overseas many times, contributing to the protection and inheritance of Chinese culture.

"Museum of the King of Gambling?" said the two jade experts from the Old Palace Museum next to him, "I have been to Macau... I am fortunate to have seen the collection of the King of Gambling. The heavenly official blessed the music clock, which is at the level of cultural relics. It is made of pure gold, and the charm of East and West is perfectly combined..."

"The spring scenery of the south of the Yangtze River made of pure gold, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water... Tsk tsk... There is also a dragon boat made of pure gold, which uses 380 kilograms of gold and is 300 meters long. It is built like a dragon boat in the south of the Yangtze River under Qianlong. More than [-] characters are lifelike and there is no repetition!"

The two were amazed.

"Mr. Cao is not here...if he is, with his financial resources and personality, he will definitely buy this painting..." Chu Ang said to himself.

"Welcome to Bonhams Auction House, today's auction is over... On behalf of Bonhams, I look forward to meeting you next time..." The auctioneer stood in front of the stage, bowed to the audience.

For Bonhams, although there was a small problem in the middle of the auction, judging from the turnover of more than 50 billion, today is still a great day worth celebrating.

Many Chinese local tyrants slowly got up, their faces were either satisfied, or regretful, with different expressions, and then left the scene back and forth.

"The matter of Zhen Fake and Shibi is finally over!" Chu Ang's face gradually relaxed, and he got up and followed the large army to leave.

"Mr. Chu..."

And at this moment, the auctioneer just stopped Chu Ang in time, "Mr. Li, please invite everyone from the Old Palace Museum upstairs to have a talk!"

Chu Ang raised his eyebrows, and exchanged glances with Zhao Chengjin and the others.

"Please..." the auctioneer led the way for Chu Ang and the others, "Come with me..."

Several people followed behind the auctioneer, and then came to the box on the second floor.

Chu Ang raised his head and glanced around.

Inside the box, there are all kinds of drinks and cakes, as well as tea sets and some tea sets, and the decoration is extremely elegant.

In addition, there are Mr. Li, the former senior executive of Bonhams, and Gao Zhanrong Gao's father and son.

Gao Jinyang glared at Chu Ang, his eyes about to burst into flames.

"Mr. Chu...Mr. Zhao!"

The senior executive of Bonhams stood up and said, "Let me introduce myself, my lord Wang Yue..."

Zhao Chengjin looked at Wang Yue suspiciously, wondering what the guy opposite him was trying to do.

Wang Yue smiled and said, "I heard that there is Li Bai's authentic work "Up to the Balcony Post" in the Old Palace Museum..."

Hearing this, Chu Ang, Zhao Chengjin and others nodded.

The three masterpieces of the prosperous Tang Dynasty are Pei Min's swordsmanship, Zhang Xu's cursive script, and Li Bai's poems.

Li Bai, the poet fairy, left more than 900 poems, but only one of his authentic calligraphy works--"Tie on the Balcony".

Speaking of "Tie on the Balcony", there is a complicated history behind it.

Li Bai admired Taoism all his life, and Sima Chengzhen was his idol. As early as 724 AD, Li Bai had the honor to meet Sima Chengzhen when he was visiting Jiangling.

This Sima Chengzhen is not only a master of Taoism, but also has a high level of literary accomplishment. Later generations respect him, Chen Ziang, Li Bai, Wang Wei, He Zhizhang, Meng Haoran, Song Zhiwen, Lu Zangyong, Bi Gou, and Wang Shizun as the ten friends of Xianzong.

This year's first encounter, the immortal Taibai was praised by a generation of masters.

Many years later, in 744 A.D., Li Bai traveled with his friends Du Fu and Gao Shi to visit the mountains and rivers. When passing by Wangwu Mountain, he revisited his old place and visited Shangyang Temple in the deep mountains.

However, Li Bai received an unexpected news. It turned out that Sima Chengzhen had become immortal nine years ago and died at the age of 96.

Seeing that the old man had passed away, Li Bai took up his pen and wrote "Tie on the Balcony".

"Up to the Balcony Post" is not only Li Bai's only surviving calligraphy. Later, Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty also wrote an inscription on "Shang Balcony Post", "Taibai tasted the running script and went to the restaurant on the west side of the moon.

Song Huizong is famous all over the world for his thin gold body, which makes "Shangyang Tie" endowed with historical value.

And not only the inscriptions and postscripts of Song Huizong, Emperor Qianlong, Zhang Yan, Ouyang Xuan, Du Ben, Wei Su, Wang Yuqing, Zou Lu, etc., "Shangyang Tie" has more extraordinary significance.

Zhang Boju, one of the four sons of the Republic of China, was ecstatic after seeing this authentic painting.He took out 7 oceans and bought it, which became Mr. Zhang's private collection.

Later, Zhang Boju donated many precious cultural relics to the country, including Li Taibai's cursive work "Up to the Balcony Tie", which he bought for 7 yuan.

At present, Li Bai's cursive work "Up to the Balcony Tie" is classified as a national first-class cultural relic, which is the highest level among cultural relics.

Wang Yue said, "I don't know if I can make this "Up to the Balcony Post"..."

Zhao Chengjin shook his head, "This kind of treasure cannot be exhibited abroad. If you want to see it, you can go to the Old Palace Museum by yourself..."

"Haha..." Wang Yue laughed and interrupted Zhao Chengjin, "You misunderstood, I mean can you get it out..."

Get it out?
Zhao Chengjin was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood what was happening. A cold air rushed straight to Tianling Gai, his body trembled suddenly, his eyes suddenly opened, and he flew into a rage, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Chu Ang's face also instantly pulled down.

The bronze wares of the Wandao Museum, the "Picture of Sending the Son of the Heavenly King" of the Dongying National Museum, and now someone actually played the "Tie on the Balcony" of the Jiugong Museum.
