Chapter 2020: Steal the limelight

"Please stay, Mr. Ye Tian, ​​can you take a look at the heirlooms we brought and help us appraise it? If you can give an accurate estimate, that would be great!"

There were four or five people who made this request in unison. They were sitting at the adjacent tables, and everyone looked at Ye Tian expectantly.

Obviously, these few also brought the heirlooms from their homes to the Spring Festival Gala in order to cooperate with the performance of the show "I Have Heirlooms", preparing to show them publicly.

But who came up with it, actually met Ye Tian, ​​the world's top antique art appraisal expert, at the Spring Festival Gala, and he was willing to appraise it for free. This kind of god-given opportunity, no one would like to miss it.

Ye Tian didn't respond immediately. He first raised his hand to check the time, then smiled and said loudly:

"Thank you for your praise. It is not impossible to help identify the heirlooms you brought, but it hasn't been long since the Spring Festival Gala began. I can only quickly identify them and I won't explain them.

I can appraise your heirlooms and give a valuation based on the current antique art market, but without detailed explanations, whether you believe my appraisal conclusion is up to you! "

"No problem, Ye Tian, ​​we believe in your vision, no matter what the result is, we can accept it"

An entrepreneur in his fifties responded first, and the others nodded and agreed.

Ye Tian chuckled and nodded, then said loudly:

"Okay, since everyone has no objections, please take out your heirlooms and put them on their respective tables. I will appraise them one by one and appreciate them. This will save time"

Following his remarks, those few took action immediately, took out their respective heirlooms and placed them on the table, waiting for Ye Tian to come over and appraise them.

In a blink of an eye, there were a few more antique works of art on those tables, which attracted everyone's attention.

The audiences who were closer to the round tables all stood up, curled their necks and tiptoes, looking at the antique artworks, everyone was curious.

The numerous CCTV staff at the scene, as well as the members of the director group of the Spring Festival Gala at the backstage, rolled their eyes unhappily, and secretly spit out wildly.

"Yeah! The Spring Festival Gala scene has completely become the stage for the guy Ye Tian. I knew that this way, he shouldn't have invited this guy to come to the Spring Festival Gala at all! It caused troubles and stole the show!"

While secretly complaining about crazy, many Spring Festival Gala staff are also very curious. There are many heirlooms that appeared on the Spring Festival Gala today, and several pieces are top-notch antique works of great value!

Seeing that everyone had taken out their heirlooms and put them on the table, Ye Tian stepped out and began to identify these things.

He first came to the round table where the family of more than 50-year-old entrepreneurs was sitting, picked up a gold-sprinkling copper stove from the table, and admired it.

This is a Xuande furnace. The exact name should be called the "Spray gold bronze elephant ears" furnace.

Its shape is open mouth, round lips, fine texture, regular shape, thick patina, bright color, and restrained brilliance. The base is engraved with the six-character regular script "Da Ming Xuande Year".

Ye Tian picked up this Xuande furnace and looked at it over and over again, then put it back on the tabletop, and then smiled and said his identification conclusion.

"This is a very good "Xuande furnace", but it is not a real Xuande furnace, but a copper furnace imitated in the early Qianlong period. The craftsmanship is quite brilliant and should come from the Qing Palace Manufacturing Office.

The Xuande furnace, which was cast in the same period and also from the Qing Palace Manufacturing Office, has been auctioned several times over the years, and the transaction price is quite good. In comparison, this Xuande furnace is a little better.

Regarding the quality of this Xuande furnace, based on the current market conditions of antique art and related auction records, I value it at about RMB 2 million, which is only low and not high! "

After speaking, Ye Tian nodded lightly at the entrepreneur, and then walked towards the next round table.

Looking at the entrepreneur again, his expression was a little disappointed, but he quickly returned to normal. He thanked Ye Tiandao and immediately put away the Xuande furnace.

Needless to say, the price he received for this Xuande furnace should be higher than 2 million yuan, or he originally thought it was a copper furnace cast in Xuande three years ago. The expectation was too high, so naturally I was a little disappointed!

But fortunately, this Xuande furnace that was copied in the early Qianlong period was not bad, and it was of great value. Even if it was a little disappointed, it was acceptable.

In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian has come to the next round table, picked up a painting from the table, and admired it.

The scale of this painting is very small, less than forty centimeters in length and about fifty centimeters in height. It is an impressionist style Western artwork, which depicts a rural landscape.

After taking a look at this painting, Ye Tian put it back on the tabletop, and then smiled and said his identification conclusion.

"This is an impressionist painting. To be precise, it should be an early impressionist painting. The name of this painting should be called "Bougieval's Seine Scenery" and it is one of a series of paintings.

The artist who created this painting was Sisley, a well-known British painter in France in the 19th century, a master of art, and one of the important impressionists. The creation period of this painting should be around 1873.

In other words, this is an early work of Sisley. At that time, Sisley had become a member of the newly emerging Impressionists, and the brushwork of painting was influenced by Monet to a certain extent.

In this painting, we can see a little shadow of Monet. After Sisley gradually matured, especially after his trip to London, he gradually got rid of Monet's influence and formed his own unique artistic style.

In the history of Western art, Sisley and Monet are known as the true representatives of pure impressionism. Among the impressionist painters, Sisley is the only one who only paints landscapes, and is known as the most beautiful landscape painting of impressionism."

Hearing this, there was a sound of exclamation on the scene.

"It's actually a Western artwork, and it's a famous impressionist painting. It's really rare, and it's interesting to appear on the Spring Festival Gala!"

"I have completely convinced Ye Tian. The previous Bada Shanren's freehand brushwork of flowers and birds, Xuande furnace, plus this impressionist painting, and antique artworks that this guy doesn't understand and cannot identify?"

You may not know much about Sisley, the important impressionist general, but you have heard of the famous Impressionist and the impressionist leader Monet.

Such an Impressionist painter who can rank alongside the master of art Monet, his work must be very valuable, and it is very likely that it is also a top-level artwork with a huge value.

And this is China, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala scene, and there is a work by a top Western artist, which makes everyone here curious!

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:

"About 1870, when the Franco-Prussian War broke out and Paris was besieged, Sisley fled to a rural area outside Paris. For several years thereafter, he stayed outside Paris and created many impressionist paintings.

Among them, in the series "Bougieval's Seine River Scenery", he created a total of about ten works. The ten paintings are of the same origin, but the viewing angles are different and the painting time is basically 1873.

This series of paintings are now mostly collected in museums around the world, including the Yale University Gallery, the Montreal Museum of Art, the Stockholm National Gallery, and the Orsay Museum.

I was a little surprised to see this early impressionist painting of Sisley here. It also shows that our domestic collectors have already invested in the international market.

Let's talk about the valuation of this impressionist painting. Based on the current antique art market and the auction record of Sisley's early impressionist paintings, I estimate it at about 3.5 million US dollars.

Converted into RMB, it should be around 24 million. Given that works by Western masters rarely appear in China, if this painting is sold in China, the transaction price should rise a little bit."

Before the words fell, the scene was boiling again.

"Wow! It is another top-level artwork worth more than 20 million yuan. It seems that today's Spring Festival Gala scene is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, there are many valuable antique artworks!"

"What about heirlooms! These are the real heirlooms. Their value is amazing!"

While people were talking about it, Ye Tian had already walked to the next round table, picked up a piece of porcelain that looked rather delicate from the table, and admired it.

It's a pity that this is a high imitation porcelain that was burned in the early years of the Republic of China. It imitates the Yongle blue and white. It is naturally not worth a few dollars.

After seeing that the porcelain was a high imitation, Ye Tian could only say in a low voice that he couldn't understand the porcelain very much, and did not publish the appraisal conclusion, lest the porcelain owner feel embarrassed!

The New Year's Eve is again at the Spring Festival Gala, why bother to ruin the mood of others!

Of course, anyone who is a little knowledgeable understands what Ye Tian's remarks meant, but no one has said it.

Next, Ye Tian quickly identified two antique works of art, UU read www.uukanshu.com and then returned to his seat and sat down.

In fact, if he doesn't go back, the CCTV staff on the scene will come over to drive people.

As Ye Tian finished the appraisal, after a lot of emotion, everyone at the scene quickly cleared up their emotions and refocused their attention on the colorful, festive and peaceful Spring Festival Gala stage.

It is getting closer and closer to eight o'clock in the evening, and the atmosphere of the Spring Festival Gala scene has become more and more lively. Everyone is beaming and looking forward to the Spring Festival Gala stage.

With only five seconds left, the countdown begins.

All the spectators at the Spring Festival Gala, every Chinese person and every Chinese family guarding in front of countless TV sets, stared at the electronic clock at this moment and began to count down in unison.

"five four three two one"

In the countdown with excitement, the time has come to eight o'clock in the evening.

Cheerful music immediately sounded, and the Spring Festival Gala officially kicked off, sending another sumptuous feast for all Chinese people in the world!
