Every day is one step closer to reality

This client lives on the top floor.

Penthouse duplex.

A mansion indeed. But now when Feng Yi mentioned the house, all he could think about was the laboratory and the swimming pool.

Therefore, even if it can't be said that one's heart is as still as water after seeing these, it doesn't have much fluctuation.

This customer's surname is Zou. He looks like he is in his early 40s. I don't know if it is due to injuries. He is a little thin, but he is in good spirits.

I had an accident not long ago and am now discharged from the hospital. I still use the wheelchair at home. Intelligent.

After greeting each other, Feng Yi walked into the house and put on the slippers handed to him.

Feng Yi went out to earn money today. Due to the nature of his work, he did not dress very businesslike. He wore a set of casual clothes and carried a backpack. He looked like a college student.

Zou Fan looked at this "appraisal master". If it weren't for Lu Yue's recommendation, he would never find such a person.

Although Lu Yue had shown him Feng Yi's photos and he had been mentally prepared, he would still be surprised when he actually saw Feng Yi.

With this appearance condition, when I am an appraiser, I always feel like I have the wrong skills.

And this guy is handsome, but when he smiles, he always makes people feel a chill on his back.

However, if he can cooperate with Qianli Group, this young man should still be capable.

As for whether he should believe it or not, Zou Fan has his own judgment.

"The collection room is upstairs, follow me."

Zou Fan controlled the smart wheelchair and took Feng Yi aside.

Feng Yi was still thinking about whether to help him when he went upstairs, when he saw the other party entering an indoor elevator.

Feng Yi: "..."

Fine.

After going upstairs, Feng Yi saw some photos hanging on the wall.

It should be a photo taken by Mr. Zou and his elders, in which there is also an erhu.

I think this is the one I have in my collection.

"My grandfather was an erhu player." Mr. Zou told Feng Yi the story of this erhu.

In the old photos hanging in the picture frames on the wall, the old man in them is holding the erhu.

"Before the abnormal climate period, he was very famous. Of course, people outside the circle may not know it. He has won many important awards and nominations. And this piano is what keeps him company.

"My old man spent more than 100,000 yuan to have this piano custom-made. At that time, there were no restrictions or strictest protection laws. At that time, the wood, python and leather used to make this piano were all very good materials. "

Feng Yi understood that this erhu was once a high-end professional piano, but now it has become an art collection.

After getting the customer's information from Lu Yue yesterday, he checked online and learned a little bit about it.

Mr. Zou's grandfather was indeed very famous back then. Now, the old man has passed away, and this piano that has become a collector's item has also gained its added value.

When Feng Yi was searching for information yesterday, he also learned about the current market situation of Erhu collectibles.

It is said that some high-end erhu made from wild python skin has been sold for 10 million yuan on the black market.

“Before my grandfather passed away, he gave this piano to me and hoped that I could take good care of it.

"Although I am very busy with my business, I do maintenance on it several times every month. If I have time, I will do it myself." Mr. Zou said.

It is impossible to use this erhu now. As a collection, it must be carefully cared for and paid attention to when the weather changes.

Mr. Zou continued: “I had an accident two months ago and was in the hospital for two months. I came back soon.

"But when I saw it again, I felt that this erhu was not the same one before. Although it looked exactly like the one in the photo."

Mr. Zou said, taking Feng Yi to his collection room and opening the door.

All that catches the eye is the erhu.

"This is my collection!"

Zou Fan did not immediately ask Feng Yi to start the appraisal.

“There are no two identical erhus in the world. Even two instruments made by the same violin maker will be different.

"In the past, when making erhu, the skin was made of python or snake skin. The condition of the python when it was alive and the condition during the production process will all affect the sound of the erhu."

Mr. Zou raised his hand and gestured, "With such a large python skin, we can only make one or two top-quality erhus. As for the remaining skin on the python, we can only make inferior ones."

Feng Yi looked at the piano he placed here.

"But most of the materials you use here are environmentally friendly leather."

Some of the pianos in front of him looked very new, and some might have been deliberately made old. Feng Yi didn't understand these things, but he could see through the leather at a glance.

Nowadays, the control is so strict, various leather materials are developed every year, and many of them are used in musical instruments.

Now that the seventh-generation Medusa leather has come out, musical instrument manufacturers must have customized a batch.

There is a piano in front of me whose cover is made of Medusa seventh-generation leather.

However, there are so many pianos in front of us, no matter whether they are new or old, or what kind of leather they are made of, they must be well maintained.

"Mr. Zou is also a lover of the piano." Feng Yi said.

Mr. Zou smiled.

“My grandfather was a famous erhu player, and I only inherited a little bit of his talent and interest.

"When I'm usually stressed, I just play the piano in the piano room for a while. This is also a way for me to relieve stress."

Speaking of these, Mr. Zou's eyes seemed to sparkle, and it was obvious that he really liked them and did not regard them as a decoration.

Feng Yi could also understand. After all, he was a descendant of an artist. Even if he did not take this path, the blood flowing in his body would still have some connection.

“Different materials produce different timbres.”

Mr. Zou took a piano.

"Mr. Feng, can you tell what kind of leather the piano in my hand is made of?"

Just as Feng Yi was about to speak, Mr. Zou added, "In this way, I will pick five pianos and try them out one by one. You can listen to their timbres, and then judge the material of their skins, and you can also talk about the price order."

Feng Yi watched Mr. Zou pick out five harps from the erhu.

These five pianos include seventh-generation Medusa leather, sixth-generation Medusa leather, and other leather materials that Feng Yi has never seen before.

Having identified so many leather materials, the database in his brain has also been updated.

Medusa's sixth-generation leather was also popular in the market before its seventh-generation leather, but after the seventh-generation leather came out, its price dropped.

Of course, Feng Yi also understood that this was a test for him. If he failed the test, then there would be no need to continue the business, and he might be given some money to send him off.

Zou Fan indeed meant this. Although Feng Yi was recommended by Lu Yue, he believed in his own judgment more.

If Feng Yi could tell what kind of leather the erhu skin placed here is made of, he would be considered a passer.

Zou Fan took the piano, set up his posture, and then started playing the piano as if he was intoxicated.

Crack - squeak -

It's so thorny that one doubts life.

The ears want to go on strike.

Feng Yi:......

He silently raised his feet and left the ground.

Feng Yi finished listening to the song in a daze.

Mr. Zou smiled apologetically, "The sound of this piano is not very good, so it sounds a bit harsh."

Feng Yi: "..."

No, I don’t think this is a question of whether the sound is good or not!
