Chapter 533 The teacher’s backdoor, appreciating top-grade Jun porcelain
Once something goes wrong, I'm afraid the other party will use some illegal means and the privileges of foreigners in this era to make it difficult for Lin Ran to stand up!
Because it has just opened up to the outside world, in order to attract foreign investment, foreigners do have certain privileges.
It was not until China became stronger in the later period that people really stood up ideologically!
At that time, in China, everyone was like a dragon!
Early the next morning, Yang Jianlong picked up Li Yuanhao and Wei Chengbin from the workshop.
The work in the workshop had been arranged in advance, and Wei Chengbin seemed very motivated when he learned that he was going to deceive foreigners again.
"I have studied a lot of new ceramic technologies during this period, and I will make a lot of money from him." Sitting in the car, Wei Chengbin said with clenched fists.
He used to feel inferior because of his poverty, but now that he is rich and the manager of a workshop, his self-confidence has improved a lot.
Seeing that he was confident, Lin Ran was very pleased, but he still reminded: "This should be our first time to imitate Jun Kiln porcelain, there are some things that need to be paid attention to."
Jun kiln, Ru kiln and Tang Sancai are also known as the three famous treasures of ancient Chinese porcelain.
Ru, Jun, there are very few ancient ceramics from the official kilns of the Tang and Song Dynasties in existence. Even if all the museum collections in the world are combined, there are no more than [-] pieces of Jun porcelain from the official kilns of the Song Dynasty!
There are more than 100 pieces of them living abroad. What is even more annoying is that overseas Jun porcelain is traded on the black market at low prices.
Even the National Palace Museum, the most prestigious museum in China, has no more than fifty pieces of Jun porcelain in its collection.
Jun porcelain has high cultural value, and it is all fired by masters. It has extremely high artistic value and craftsmanship value. It is known as the three treasures of ancient porcelain and has great collection potential.
Fortunately, Lin Ran had studied the characteristics of Jun porcelain and patiently explained it in the car: "The overall color of Jun kiln is lighter, the texture is delicate, the glaze color is simple, the stability is strong, and the beauty of simplicity is emphasized..."
Wei Chengbin wrote down Lin Ran's words in his notebook, and he couldn't help but admire Lin Ran's knowledge. Even a kid from a ceramics family like him didn't know anything about the rare Jun kiln.
Yang Jianlong was driving intently. Their destination was the Palace Museum!
When they arrived at the museum, others were waiting at the door. Lin Ran was already familiar with the security staff and went directly into the curator's office.
Tang Lanxuan had just arrived at work and sat down when he saw Lin Ran coming in. He couldn't help but laugh: "Lin Ran, I feel like you are more active at work than me, the curator."
"Teacher, I have something very important to tell you." Lin Ran didn't waste time and directly stated his intention.
Knowing that the rose purple glazed water chestnut water fairy basin in their museum had been targeted by foreigners, Tang Lanxuan couldn't help but frowned and asked why.
Later, the Palace Museum might need to cooperate, so Lin Ran told Tang Lanxuan the whole story without reservation.
Tang Xuan was also very interested in their plan.
"Interesting, you are working with Reddy just to gain the trust of the British Royal Museum?"
Lin Ran nodded: "It seems that they often visit the Palace Museum and have been coveting Chinese cultural relics for a long time."
"Sigh..." Tang Lanxuan sighed, "We also wanted to get the blue-glazed purple-red chicken heart jar back, but we didn't expect them to strike first. It's so shameless."
"It's okay, we will definitely find a way to get it back in the future." Lin Ran said firmly.
Tang Lanxuan knew very well the temper of the student in front of him.
He is not a big talker. Once he has made up his mind, he will move towards his goal without hesitation!
What reason does Tang Lanxuan have for not supporting such an ambitious goal?
So, he patted Lin Ran on the shoulder and said appreciatively: "Okay, teacher will definitely support your career! I will take you to see the narcissus basin now."
"Wait a minute, teacher, it's not just me, I also brought a master with me."
"Then let him come with us." According to the museum's original plan, the narcissus basin will only be displayed to the public for a week. Because it is extremely precious, they need to study and sample it first. Now it has been moved to the inner museum and will not be displayed to the public.
Only masters within the system can view it, but in order to support students, he is lenient.
Lin Ran quickly went to the door and called Wei Chengbin and Li Yuanhao over.
Seeing Wei Chengbin, Tang Lanxuan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled happily: "It seems that Mr. Wei has found the right path."
Wei Chengbin still remembered the first time they met, when he was taken to the museum by Lin Ran for selling fake cultural relics.
He was also a little embarrassed, clasped his fists and lowered his head and said, "Director, I'm very sorry for what happened earlier."
"It doesn't matter. If you know your mistakes, you can correct them. There is no great good. Besides, Mr. Wei's strength can be used on the right path, which is a blessing to China." Tang Lanxuan's simple praise made Wei Chengbin feel extremely convinced.
To be recognized by the director of the National Palace Museum is the lifelong pursuit of countless craftsmen!
Keep quiet in the museum. They did not talk on the way and followed Tang Lanxuan to the inner museum.
The light here is very dim, and only a few old professors are looking at the narcissus basin with magnifying glasses and taking notes.
Tang Lanxuan went up to communicate with the professors. The professors were obviously unwilling to get out of the way and said, "What if they damage it?"
"I assure you in the name of the curator that there will be no problem." Tang Lanxuan used his reputation as a guarantee, and it was hard for others to say anything.
While Lin Ran and the others were watching, the professor was watching, fearing that they would touch the cultural relics.
"It's really a good thing." Lin Ran thought to himself, it was indeed a cultural toy that was favored by the Royal Museum.
"The market stock of ancient Jun kiln porcelain is very small, so it is particularly precious. Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, and Zeng Shuyun said: Shenjun Bao porcelain is an exquisite product!"
"There is also a saying among the people that 'there is no match for Jun porcelain, and there is no match for kiln porcelain.' This shows that people in the Song Dynasty loved kiln porcelain."
In fact, there were originally quite a lot of Jun porcelain left over from the Song Dynasty. Unfortunately, the country was in dire straits at that time, and there were very few experts who knew about Jun porcelain.
This gave Lu Qinzhai an opportunity to resell a large amount of Jun porcelain abroad, in exchange for villas, shops, and status.
Hearing Lin Ran's sigh, the old professors beside him also nodded.
The rose purple glazed water chestnut basin in front of me has a broad mouth, a curved edge, a shallow belly, an arc-shaped abdominal wall, and six halberd lines facing the mouth of the water chestnut.
The flat bottom, supported by Sanyun's head and feet, makes the vessel stable and dignified, while also showing the beauty of the curves.
This is exactly the collection of the Northern Song Dynasty royal family, which shows the noble and gorgeous style of the Northern Song Dynasty royal family!
However, he was not just here for appraisal today, he also wanted to tell Wei Chengbin the characteristics so that he could remember them in his mind.
"The inner wall of the flower pot is painted with sky blue glaze, with earthworm mud patterns, and the outer wall of the flower pot is painted with rose purple glaze. The overall color shows a gradient, gorgeous and colorful, just like the sunset."
Every time Lin Ran talked about a characteristic, Wei Chengbin took out a pen and wrote it down carefully!
