"Xiao Song, I didn't expect that in addition to knowing a lot about antiques, you also have different views on the economy. It would be a pity for you not to go to college." Zhang Wenyuan said with regret.
Regarding Professor Zhang's regret, Song Wenjing did not show much unwillingness.
He still has a relatively clear understanding of what kind of person he is.
He is indeed fond of antiques and has spent a lot of time studying them. But it is hard to say that he has a deep understanding of this subject.
As for the economic aspect, there are no different opinions. It’s just that we have experienced some in the past life and know the development trend in the future.
"Professor Zhang, you praise me too much. In terms of economics, I am completely talking about it on paper and it is not worth mentioning at all. I also want to have the opportunity to learn more theoretical knowledge and use it in practice in the future if possible."
Zhang Wenyuan stood up, took out a few books from his books, and handed them over.
"Xiao Song, these books are all traditional Chinese versions that I asked my friends to bring back from Hong Kong Island. You go back and find time to read them carefully. I think they are worth reading. But don't let others see it. Although
The country has proposed reform and opening up, but in some aspects it has not yet fully liberalized, so don’t cause trouble for yourself.”
Song Wenjing knew Professor Zhang's concerns. Zhang Wenyuan came from that era and had a deep understanding of certain aspects, and might even have experienced them personally.
Although reform and opening up had been proposed for several years, the overall atmosphere had not been completely changed. He was also worried about what might happen again one day, so he specifically asked Song Wenjing to pay more attention to avoid getting into trouble.
Song Wenjing still treasures these books. Especially in this era, it is not so easy to find books on economics, business administration, etc. from Western countries.
He felt that it was necessary to go back and study carefully. These were areas that he had not been exposed to before. If he had good development in the future, he would need to understand them well in management and other aspects.
"Professor Zhang, thank you for your kindness. I will definitely study hard when I get back. If I have the chance, I will come back to ask you for advice." Song Wenjing stood up and bowed deeply towards Zhang Wenyuan.
Meeting by chance, as a university professor, being able to praise him in such a way really made Song Wenjing feel warm. At the same time, he also cherished this year-end friendship.
Zhang Wenyuan smiled slightly, a child can be taught.
It was getting late, and Song Wenjing was ready to say goodbye.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Wenyuan's words once again made Song Wenjing overjoyed.
"Xiao Song, if you have a chance, I will take you to see Huanghuali's Taishi chair. My friend's house also has two Taishi chairs and a square table, both of which are quite old." Zhang Wenyuan said with pride.
"Oh?" Song Wenjing suddenly became interested, "Old man, both the imperial chair and the square table are made of huanghuali? What era are they from?"
Hearing that Song Wenjing was really interested, Zhang Wenyuan started to show his disbelief again and smiled without saying a word.
"Hey, Professor Zhang, I just received a pair of Fei Danxu's "Pictures of Ladies" some time ago. How about I bring it over for you to appreciate it another day?" Song Wenjing began to say seductively.
"Fei Danxu?" Zhang Wenyuan's expression changed slightly, "Is he the one from the Jiaqing period?"
"It's Fei Danxu, also known as Zituo and Xiaolou, who together with Gai Qi is called Gai Fei. Sir, do you want to take a look? That "Picture of Ladies" is quite well preserved."
At this time, Song Wen resembled a big gray wolf, tempting the little white sheep to take the bait.
Zhang Wenyuan couldn't help but get excited when he heard the other party said it was indeed Fei Danxu. He was about to say something, but he restrained his body and sat down again.
"Haha, you kid, you're still trying to play tricks on me." Zhang Wenyuan pretended that the old god was here. As for what he was feeling inside, you could tell from his actions just now.
As the most famous painters in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, Zhang Wenyuan was quite familiar with them. In particular, Fei Danxu's "Pictures of Ladies" was known as a masterpiece at the time. If you are lucky enough to appreciate one or two of them, your life will be in vain.
Since he was willing to speak out, Song Wenjing had no intention of hiding it. Although he had not been with Professor Zhang for a long time, it could be seen from all aspects that he respected him for his cultivation, character, etc.
.
"Professor Zhang, I'm not trying to whet your appetite. I keep that painting at home and can't get it for the time being. When I go back in two days, I'll bring it to you. You can appreciate it for as many days as you want."
Seeing this kid being so smart, Zhang Wenyuan stopped pretending and his face suddenly became full of smiles.
"Xiao Song, I see that you are very sensible. I will take you to see those two Taishi chairs another day. Let me tell you, the carvings of those two chairs are really outstanding. Coupled with some other features, they can almost be
It must have come from the imperial imperial system of the early to mid-Qing Dynasty.”
Zhang Wenyuan stopped trying to make excuses and briefly introduced the situation to Song Wenjing.
The Taishi chair first appeared in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Zhang Ruiyi of the Song Dynasty mentioned in his book "Gui'er Collection": Today's school chairs and ancient Hu beds are only of Castanopsis type, and all the ministers and attendants use them. Because the Qin Shiyuan was a forbidden place for the Prime Minister, it was erected.
Wu Yuan of Jingyi flattered the prime minister and made forty lotus leaf holders, which he sent to the imperial palace. The craftsmen who left behind them immediately added them. All the ministers and attendants used them. He was named Taishi Model.
The so-called Qin Shiyuan refers to the treacherous minister Qin Hui who was serving as the imperial master at that time. Wu Yuan, the emperor of the capital at that time, saw Qin Hui sitting on a chair and accidentally dropped his turban. He understood and found someone to make a lotus leaf head holder, and
Asking famous craftsmen to install it on Qin Hui's chair ring, the Taishi Chair was born.
In the Ming Dynasty, the name "Taishi chair" became more popular. However, its shape also changed a lot. It no longer only refers to a chair with a lotus leaf to support the head, but a frame-shaped square seat in the lower part and a wooden frame in the upper part.
An armchair with a rounded chair is called a Taishi chair.
In the Qing Dynasty, there were new changes. People at that time called the screen-back armchair the Taishi chair.
Li Dou of the Qing Dynasty cited the "Records of Construction Sections" in "Yangzhou Painted Boat Records" and said: "There are armchairs, backrest chairs, Taishi chairs, and ghost chairs."
Comparing armchairs and armchairs can prove that the armchairs in the Qing Dynasty did not just refer to armchairs and armchairs.
At that time, the screen-back armchair was called the Taishi Chair. In addition to showing respect for the officials and elders who used this chair, it was also because this kind of chair was often decorated with lion patterns, so it is not surprising that it was called the Taishi Chair.
.
The Taishi chair has a solemn and rigorous appearance, heavy materials, exaggerated width, and complicated decorations. These features are all to highlight the status and identity of the owner, and at the same time, the title of the Taishi chair is more prominently modified.
Among them, the Taishi chairs made by him during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty were particularly exquisite.
During that period, many were made of precious woods, such as huanghuali, rosewood, etc., which were the best choices for their materials.
Even many styles have porcelain, jade, enamel and other precious materials inlaid on their backs.
The most important purpose of these features is to highlight the status of the owner. As for the comfort, it depends on the opinion of different people.
Song Wenjing certainly wanted Zhang Wenyuan's proposal. Regardless of whether he could get it in the end, even if he just went to see it, it would not be in vain.
In the future, there will be fewer and fewer such things. Many people regard them as treasures and hide them from others. If you want to see them, it is really impossible without a certain status.
Of course, you can also choose to go to a museum to see it. But after all, you can't do it in person, you can only watch it from a distance. How can you touch it with your own hands, or even sit on it in person? It's so real.
It was already late. From the time he came out at noon to now, Song Wenjing basically spent the whole afternoon at Zhang Wenyuan's house. Except for the old books here, he didn't receive anything.
But the time spent this afternoon was extremely precious. Song Wenjing felt it was worth it. Not only did he get to know a respectable professor, he could learn a lot from him. It would also be possible for him to integrate into his circle in the future and
Further expand your personal connections. These are intangible assets.
