Gu Nanhai looked at Dong Shu, then at me, and then at the audience.

He cleared his throat: "Paillette began in Kangxi, flourished in Yongzheng, and reached its peak during the Qianlong period.

During the Yongzheng period, pastel porcelain achieved unprecedented development in terms of shape, glaze and color painting.

And this pastel set is a bird standing on a flower, which is in the style of Yongzheng at that time, so I concluded that it is Yongzheng pastel painting."

I laughed.

I know where he lost.

"Now, please tell me your opinion, Mr. Gao."

"Before I answer, I would like to ask Mr. Gu, what kind of flowers are on the bottle?"

Gu Nanhai looked ugly and said seriously: "I refuse to answer this question."

I shrugged, now I was more sure that I was right.

If the question was asked by Gu Beihai, he would definitely say something. Even if he didn't know, he would find someone to prevaricate it.

Gu Nanhai simply refused to answer.

This is why Gu Nanhai is smarter than Gu Beihai.

hehe!

Even if you refuse to answer directly, you can't hide your poor skills!

I spoke calmly: "Since Mr. Gu is unwilling to answer my questions, I will make a fool of myself.

Please ask experts for advice if you are wrong.

In fact, the basis for my judgment is just a plum blossom."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was surprised.

"Everyone knows that because of my mistakes in the answer session, I observed fewer times than Mr. Gu. The part I observed happened to be a plum blossom.

This set of porcelain vases is Hongxian porcelain from the Yuan Shikai period. The inscription should be on the bottom of the vase: Made by Jurentang.

Hongxian porcelain was produced in Jingdezhen by Guo Baochang after Yuan Shikai became emperor in 1916. He supervised the firing of a batch of "imperial" porcelain mainly made of watercolor and pastel.

Guo Baochang was Yuan Shikai's steward. When Yuan was about to ascend the throne as emperor, he was sent to the former Qingguan Kiln Factory in Jingdezhen to bake porcelain.

Under his supervision, a batch of high-quality porcelain was fired. Because Yuan Shikai lived and worked in Jurentang, Zhongnanhai at that time, this batch of porcelain was signed: Jurentang.

Guo Baochang was not only a famous porcelain maker, but also a connoisseur and collector. He was especially good at appraising porcelain from official kilns of the Qing Dynasty. Moreover, the place where it was fired was in the official kiln of the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, the porcelain pieces he fired have regular shapes, thin and white porcelain bodies, pure color quality, and exquisite paintings. Their craftsmanship has reached the level of Qingguan kilns.

Yuan Shikai only served as emperor for 83 days, and the public despised his shameless behavior. Moreover, because the number of authentic "Jurentang" models produced was quite small, coupled with the social turmoil at that time, very few authentic products have been preserved.

, can be described as a rare treasure.

In addition, the available reference materials are limited, so many people regard the pastels of this period as those of the Qing Dynasty.

In the Yongzheng period, most of the pastel paintings were of flowers and butterflies. Peonies, roses, crabapples, and four-season flowers were also very common. Plum blossoms were rare, and this was the first criterion. Furthermore, even if they were available, their colors were similar to those of the Yongzheng period.

It’s different. There were many pastel colors in the Yongzheng period.

This is the basis for my judgment."

Gu Nanhai smiled disdainfully, his eyes full of contempt, as if to say, I thought I could say something.

A plum blossom, isn't it too far-fetched?

Dong Shu concluded: "Mr. Gu relied on the style of the bottle, and Mr. Gao relied on the plum blossom on the bottle. Let's see now, whose answer is correct?"

The correct answer appeared on the big screen: On the left is a plum blossom bird painted in pastel on the picture, and on the right is written: A pair of Jurentang pastel plum blossom bird vase in the Republic of China, 20,000.

As soon as the answer came out, the audience in the venue couldn't sit still, and many people stood up at the same time.

Someone shouted: "How can you tell based on just one plum blossom? It's a lie."

"Did the TV station reveal the answer in advance?"

"Too fake."

When he shouted like this, there was an uproar in the venue.

I took a quick look and realized that these people were not the ones invited by Gu Nanhai.

Ai Weiwei shouted: "You are the ones cheating, Mr. Gao is relying on his true ability."

Hou Yun and Wang Xiufu also agreed: "Yes! You are the ones who cheated."

In an instant, the audience in the venue formed two groups, quarreling with each other, and no one liked it.

"Everyone, please don't get excited." Dong Shu hurriedly calmed everyone down.

Dong Shu was thoughtful and looked at Qin Huairuo: "The audience has questions about this question. Please ask Ms. Qin Huairuo to comment on Mr. Gao's answer."

"Mr. Gao's answer is very correct. The analysis is also on point. When we appraise treasures, we must not only look at the workmanship and materials, but also the period, what was popular at the time, and what the emperor liked.

Some people say that the Yongzheng dynasty's pastels are the most beautiful, unprecedented and unprecedented, bright and dazzling. The Yongzheng pastel colors are rich and changeable, bright and soft, with natural shades of color materials, strong pink texture, fresh and brilliant, elegant and beautiful.

There can be more than twenty colors used on one utensil. The same color can be divided into shades and yin and yang. Oils are used to mix colors, paying attention to the changes in the layers of color materials. The painting is pink and soft, highlighting the yin and yang shades of the painting.

It has a three-dimensional feel.

The patterns are mainly traditional themes, including flowers, birds, figures, and landscapes. Commonly seen are peaches, chrysanthemums, peonies, and other cross-branch paintings. Cross-branch is a painting method. The pictures of plates and bowls are drawn from the body to the cover, or from the vessel.

It is painted continuously from the inside to the outside, which means it is complete.

This pair of pastel plum blossom and bird vases has a uniform glaze, which is crystal clear and white, as warm as jade. The colors are beautiful, and the flowers are vivid and lifelike.

Kiln pastel porcelain is no less impressive.

However, the overall color is not as rich as that of the Yongzheng period, and it is normal to be eye-catching."

Qin Huairuo said and put down the phone.

"Thank you Ms. Qin for your wonderful comments. According to the rules, Mr. Gu lost this game and Mr. Gao received 24.98 million."

"Wow! Mr. Gao is great, Mr. Gao is right." Ai Weiwei clapped her hands below.

There was a round of applause from the audience.

Gu Nanhai clenched his fists and his face turned red.

"Next, let's look at the next item, the eleventh item."

"The 11th item, a large bowl with blue and white clouds and dragons from Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, 200,000 yuan."

"The 12th item, Northern Zhou Dynasty? One Buddha, two disciples and two Bodhisattva statues, 2 million."

"The 13th item, Yue kiln celadon carved flower holder from the Northern Song Dynasty, 10 million."

"The 14th item, Yuan Longquan kiln celadon string pattern plum vase, 3 million."

"The answers of Mr. Gu and Mr. Gao are once again surprisingly similar. Since the answers of Mr. Gao and Mr. Gu have been similar many times, let's ask both of you to reveal your answers at the same time this time. I will count 123, and both of you please reveal your answers at the same time."

Gu Nanhai and I revealed our answers at the same time.
