Chapter 2017: 8 paintings of the great mountain people
Only more than half an hour before the Spring Festival Gala, all the audience and special guests have entered the illuminated CCTV No. 1 studio and took their seats.
Ye Tian and his family have also entered the studio and sat down at a round table in the second row of the auditorium. The round table is located in a very good position, close to the stage, and has a great view.
On this round table, covered with red silk tablecloths, gold silk thread embroidered on it with auspicious patterns. In the center of the round table is a pot of beautifully blooming orchids. There are two bottles of mineral water in front of everyone.
There are many round tables on the front, left and right sides, and at the back of this round table. Every round table is full of people, and everyone is happy and excited.
Sitting beside these round tables, there are different families from all over the country, popular stars in the entertainment industry, and other special guests, such as national labor models, soldiers with medals on their chests, outstanding entrepreneurs, and so on.
As soon as they entered the studio hall, everyone was shocked by the huge studio hall full of lights, flowers, and cheerful festival atmosphere, and was thoroughly infected by the atmosphere here.
Especially the three little guys, Matthew and Evelyn, and Linlin and Dongzi.
The eyes of a few of them were almost running out, and they kept turning their heads to look at everything in the studio. Everyone's eyes shone with excitement and wondered.
Until they walked to the round table and sat down, they were still in shock, their eyes shining with excitement.
"Steven, the layout of this studio is really beautiful, and the atmosphere is very warm. The previous stage is even more so. It is definitely the most gorgeous stage I have ever seen."
Seeing everything in this studio, Matthew couldn't help but sigh.
Before he finished his words, Evelyn next to him said:
"It's the lively Spring Festival for you Chinese. Everyone is beaming. The whole country is immersed in a strong festive atmosphere. I like this kind of festival and I like the Chinese New Year."
Ye Tian smiled softly, then whispered:
"The Spring Festival is the most solemn festival of the Chinese nation. It embodies the Chinese nation's ideological beliefs, ideals, life, entertainment, and cultural psychology. It is also a carnival display of blessings, food and entertainment activities.
Its origin contains profound cultural connotations, and it carries a rich historical and cultural heritage in its inheritance and development. During the Spring Festival, activities to celebrate the new year will be held throughout China, each with its own characteristics, but all of them are lively and festive.
At this moment, not only in the studio we are in, but in every place and every family in China, people are immersed in a warm and joyful holiday atmosphere, saying goodbye to the old year and welcoming the new year! ..."
When Ye Tian was chatting with Matthew and the others, many viewers and special guests in the studio had already discovered Ye Tian and his party.
In addition to the CCTV staff and the many big names in the entertainment industry who had been backstage at the Spring Festival Gala before, many people were very surprised that Ye Tian and the others suddenly appeared in the No. 1 studio.
"Isn't that Ye Tian? How could he appear here? And sitting in the seat of the special guest in the second row of the audience, I haven't heard of him being invited to the Spring Festival Gala before!"
"What's so strange about this. If you can donate 5,000 volumes of the priceless Dunhuang Buddhist scriptures to the National Library of China, you can also be specially invited to sit in the special guest seats in the front row."
There was a lot of discussion at the scene, and many people looked at Ye Tian.
For this kind of scene, Ye Tian had anticipated and taken it for granted. He didn't feel surprised at all. He continued to chat with his family and waited for the Spring Festival Gala to officially kick off.
After chatting for a while, a strange voice suddenly came from the side.
"Excuse me, Mr. Ye Tian, can I take you a few minutes?"
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately stopped the conversation and turned to look at the round table on the left.
The unfamiliar voice came from this round table. The speaker was a man sitting at the table. He was about fifty years old. He was gentle and elegant.
Next to this man, sat a woman in her fifties and a beautiful girl in her twenties.
On the upper side, facing the stage, sat an old man wearing a military uniform with military medals on his chest, and a gray-haired but energetic old lady.
Obviously, these are also special guests of the Spring Festival Gala, and three generations of grandparents and grandchildren came to participate in the Spring Festival Gala. The situation is similar to that of Ye Tian.
Ye Tian looked at each other, then smiled and nodded and said:
"Hello, I'm Ye Tian, what can I do for you? You seem to be much older than me. Just call me by my name, or call me Xiaoye. Don't use the word'you' anymore. I can't afford it"
"Okay, it's better to be respectful, then call your name, Ye Tian, I am a teacher from Tsinghua University, my name is Tang Bowen. These are my family members. Come to participate in the Spring Festival Gala today."
Following Tang Bowen's introduction, Ye Tianchong, the Tsinghua teacher's family members, nodded gently, as a greeting.
Teacher Tang's family members also nodded and greeted him, and everyone was curious and looked at him.
After a brief introduction, Teacher Tang continued:
"Ye Tian, as everyone knows, you are the world's top antique art appraisal expert. You have a sharp vision and have never seen anything. I would like to ask you to help appraise a painting and calligraphy artwork.
In order to cooperate with a program of the Spring Festival Gala, "I have a family heirloom", we brought an ancient painting here and prepared to show it on this program. That is our family heirloom, which has been in our house for decades.
However, we are not sure about the authenticity of the ancient painting. We have seen it with appraisal experts before. Some people say it is true and some say it is fake. Instead of getting a clear result, it makes us even more confused!
I didn't expect to meet you here today, and there is still some time before the Spring Festival Gala, so I took the liberty to interrupt, I would like to ask you to help me, give me an appraisal, so that we can feel confident! "
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately chuckled softly, as did his grandparents.
"Tang, like you, we were asked by the Spring Festival Gala director team to bring a family heirloom to the Spring Festival Gala. If we are invited to participate in the'I Have Heirloom' program, we will show our family heirloom in public.
This is a Chinese New Year. Since you said a word of "please" and asked me to help identify your family heirloom, how can I refuse? As long as you can trust me, then I will help to look at and appreciate that ancient painting! "
"That's great, Ye Tian, thank you for your help. The questions that have plagued our family for a long time are finally solved today. This is about to become our family's heart disease!"
Teacher Tang nodded excitedly, looking forward to it.
Immediately afterwards, he picked up a brocade box about fifty centimeters long from his feet and placed it carefully on the table in front of him.
Ye Tian stood up, came to this table, and looked at the brocade box on the table.
The same goes for my grandfather, who is a lover of calligraphy and painting, as well as other audience members and guests who heard the dialogue between Ye Tian and Teacher Tang. They all looked at the brocade box, and everyone was curious.
As for Teacher Tang's family, let alone, everyone's eyes are full of expectations.
Especially Old Man Tang, who was sitting at the top, stood up directly, staring at the simple and elegant brocade box with concern, his breathing became a little quick.
After putting the brocade box, Teacher Tang took out two pairs of white gloves from his handbag, put on one by himself, and handed the other directly to Ye Tian.
Immediately afterwards, he carefully opened the brocade box, then uncovered a layer of white silk, and took out a yellowed scroll from the brocade box.
"Ye Tian, this is the family heirloom of our family. Although it is difficult to tell the true and false of a painting by the famous painter Zhu Da from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, it has been collected in our family for more than 80 years and we cherish it very much.
My grandfather first accepted this painting of Bada Shanren. He was working in Shanghai in the mid-1930s. By coincidence, he received this ancient painting and kept it in our home ever since.
After liberation, our family moved to Beijing. In the early 1950s, we looked at an appraisal expert from Liulichang and said it was an authentic piece of Badashanren. At that time, someone wanted to buy it, but we didn't sell it.
In the 1980s, because I was going to study abroad at that time, it cost a lot, but my family was in a dilemma. In desperation, we wanted to sell this painting and asked someone to appraise it again.
The appraisal expert I found this time gave a completely opposite conclusion to the previous one. The appraisal expert said that this was a fake, a forged painting in the early years of the Republic of China, and came from a master of painting and calligraphy in Tianjin.
We didn’t believe in this evil, and we went to several experts for appraisal before and after. It turned out that some people looked at the truth and some looked at the fake. As a result, we were completely confused and the painting was not sold.”
Teacher Tang introduced the basic situation of this painting~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and placed the scroll gently on the round table instead of handing it over to Ye Tian.
Obviously, this teacher Tang knows some of the rules of domestic antiques and knows that it is not enough!
"The paintings of Bada Shanren are very rare, so you must appreciate them."
Ye Tian said with a smile, with a somewhat surprised expression on his face.
At the same time, many spectators and special guests around heard that this might be a painting by Bada Shanren, and they all stood up and looked at this side with bright eyes.
With the rise of collecting craze, coupled with the endless variety of treasure hunt programs on TV, people nowadays know a little about antique art collection, and there are even some who call themselves experts.
The paintings and calligraphy works of Bada Shanren have been enthusiastically sought after by countless collectors in recent years, and the auction prices have repeatedly hit record highs. They are definitely one of the most appealing Chinese ancient painters.
At this moment, I heard that there is a painting of Bada Shanren here. Can you not feel excited about it?
