Chapter 758 No Money
Author: Erzi Congzhou
"There is no need to give me gold. Brother Qi Yan is a scholar of ancient times and erudition in Hong Kong. He is also fond of Dharma calligraphy and rubbings of inscriptions and inscriptions. His expertise in identification and wealth of collections are unmatched by anyone at home and abroad."
Zhou Zhi couldn't help but secretly dumbfounded. Mr. Qi almost dared to say that he was the first person in the country to collect legal texts and inscriptions. He was convinced. This shows how impressive this old man Li's collection is.
"Minister Hu, you mentioned this "Chunhua Pavilion Tie"." Zhou Zhi now knew the power of Prince Cheng's "Linchunhua Pavilion Tie" and Bi Shi'an's "Chunhua Pavilion Ancestor Engraved Edition", and asked: "It's the collector who wants to take action.
?”
"We just learned the news." Minister Hu said: "Eiichi Anzhai from the island country is contacting Mr. Li. They want to purchase these two Dharma texts."
"Island country?"
"Eiichi Anzhai is a big collector in the island country. He attaches the most importance to our cultural relics, especially porcelain." Mr. Wang said.
"In fact, the people of the island country cherish our country's fine cultural relics very much. When Su Shi's "Han Shi Tie" was in Tokyo, they were still concerned about its safety during the bombing. They even said, "Tokyo will be burned if it is burned, but the "Han Shi Tie" will be left behind.
Good' argument."
The old man was a member of the National Cultural Relics Recovery Committee at that time. He traveled all over the country for the return of "Han Shi Tie" and put in a lot of effort.
"In addition to people from the island country, there is also the great collector Ellsworth Ellsworth from the United States, who is also very interested in these two Dharma texts."
"An Siyuan?" Qi Lao's brows suddenly furrowed: "This is going to be troublesome."
"Is this a Chinese American?" Zhou Zhi asked.
"No." Mr. Wang shook his head: "He is a pure American. His mother is a singer and his father is a dental authority. He was brought in by Wang Fangyu, a great Chinese calligrapher and painter who is also a scholar and collector living in the United States, at the age of fourteen.
Menting, I have been obsessed with Chinese art for the rest of my life."
"He started by collecting stamps, and gradually progressed to collecting snuff bottles. In 1960, he opened the Gold Gallery to run the antique business, and gradually became the most authoritative international Asian art antique dealer."
"Eiichi Anzhai likes porcelain, and he may have wanted to buy it by chance, but Ellsworth is a big collector of Chinese calligraphy works. He collects not only ancient works, but also works by modern painters and calligraphers."
Qi Lao said: "So if he is interested in two sets of Dharma stickers, it will be worse than the island countryman who is interested in them."
The room was deserted for a while, and finally it was Zhou Zhi who spoke first: "Minister Hu, so what does it mean?"
"It's like this. We thought we might as well go to Hong Kong Island and use this matter as an opportunity to contact Li Qiyan, and then introduce you to Li Leshan through him, and Li Leshan will take you to join the Unicode Alliance."
"Who is Li Leshan?"
"Li Leshan is Li Qiyan's eldest son who is a professor at Yale University."
"No..." Mr. Qi couldn't sit still after hearing this: "Don't take this as an opportunity. If Brother Li really wants to take action, then we can take back the two "Chunhua Pavilion Notes"
If so, this is a great thing!"
Minister Hu shook his head: "Qi Lao, the country's foreign exchange is still very tight now. We don't have that kind of economic strength yet..."
"It doesn't take much. I'll write a letter to Brother Li and ask him to sell me some face. We can raise two million dollars..."
Mr. Wang shook his head when he heard these words. This is two million US dollars. Even if the Forbidden City and the National Museum go to Daliu Shu to browse for articles, it is so easy to get it!
"That elbow..."
"I'm afraid I don't have that much money, so he just bought two pieces of revolving bottles and forgot about them?" Mr. Wang said: "Those two things were picked out from the mouth of that girl Lin Wanqiu. You should take them as Haitong's things."
Picked up and missed?"
"Then this..."
"So Minister Hu is right, if we can get our elbows into that association through this matter, it will be considered as completing the task." Mr. Wang did not want to get too involved. This matter has obviously exceeded everyone's expectations.
Ability needs to be carefully considered.
Although Zhou Zhi's assets are quite considerable now, two software and hardware stocks have been fully occupied after experiencing a sharp decline. Now they have soared, allowing Zhou Zhi's assets to double again, now reaching 50 million US dollars.
However, Zhou Zhi will not touch them, because Zhou Zhi knows that the prices of these two stocks are far from reaching the end.
So now he only has five million US dollars in his hand, which is still occupied by Lin Wanqiu. Zhou Zhi is really coveting the profits that Lin Wanqiu gave him. It's so delicious!
Therefore, although Mr. Wang did not estimate Zhou Zhi's assets, he also estimated Zhou Zhi's current economic situation correctly, which is that there is no foreign exchange available.
In the end, Qi Lao could only sigh: "Then go to my house first. I have several Dharma books of Prince Cheng there. There is a "Heart Sutra" at the same time as "Linchun Hua Ge Tie". You can get familiar with his book first.
Character."
The regular script of Prince Cheng Yongxuan was mostly based on Ouyang Xun, and he studied and imitated Zhao Mengfu very deeply.
However, Prince Cheng didn't know if he had any aesthetic preferences. He chose Ouyang Xun for the knot, but his strokes were far more graceful and elegant than Zhao Mengfu's, and the overall body was slimmer, making the European style more "gentle and elegant".
, follow the rules.”
Therefore, compared with Zhao Mengfu's, his calligraphy has the feeling of looking at Liu's body and Yan's body, and it is also an experience of one bone and one muscle.
Prince Cheng has a quirk, that is, he is very stingy. Even when Fujin comes in, his dowry is taken away and he is put into coarse clothes, and silk is not allowed.
But he is never stingy in collecting calligraphy.
Moreover, the resources are so good that the Empress Dowager and the Empress often give gifts, so the collection of calligraphy works in the family is very rich. The so-called "brocade axis" toothpicks are rich and boastful, and they are also said to be calligraphers when they live in deep places. Empty nests are not willing to come from Dongye, and they still have to sigh when they buy them.
Huanhua."
Therefore, he had a lot of advanced "textbooks" at hand at that time, so he mostly wrote Jin people's laws in cursive script. At least during the Qianlong dynasty, few people could do it better.
"What a pity." After Zhou Zhi read the Heart Sutra, he couldn't help but shout that it was a pity.
"Why do you say that?" Qi Lao asked.
"Due to the restriction of his status, Prince Cheng is cautious in everything, accepting more and releasing less. In the field of calligraphy, he has more than enough inheritance but not enough creation. Although he is very talented, it is difficult to develop it." Zhou Zhi shook his head: "What a pity.
Otherwise, his achievements would never be more than that."
"Although Zhuzi said that he has not practiced calligraphy for more than a year, it seems that the level of Guan Tie has improved." Qi Lao smiled at Mr. Wang and said, "At this point, we can discuss the art of calligraphy together."
"Let's go, then let's go to Miantang House to discuss this matter."
The appearance of Miantang House has been greatly changed. The front courtyard was completely demolished, leaving only half of the flower wall as a "screen wall" partition.
In this way, the courtyard and patio are much larger, and the wing rooms on both sides have become large rooms. The lobby room and the wing room at the bottom have become the master suite, conference room, study room, small conference room, and warehouse entrance.
The entrance to the warehouse is entered through the small veranda outside the study, and the entire rear courtyard has become a "museum exhibition hall."
