Rebirth: I am a first-line antique dealer

This time Ding Mao bought a lot less coins from the two bosses than the first time, and the transaction volume was also much lower, but after all, he was asked to collect it himself but he couldn't, so there is still a big place in a big place. convenience and benefits.

As for Boss Huang talking about currency silver coins, he still has to look at the funds in his hands after the auction. After all, there will be an auction held by other companies in December, and he must set aside enough funds for this!

Many things cannot be received by the local front line. The so-called leakage does not only refer to the current leakage. He knows the direction of the market, so things that will skyrocket in the future can also be regarded as leakage!

But he still won't touch things like old kilns, because many things from before the Ming Dynasty will no longer be auctioned!As for some things handed down from ancient times, he will still consider them. After all, they come from the right place and have no worries!

Since there is no time conflict on the first day and there will be coins that Ding Mao values ​​the most, Ding Mao will naturally go there in person, and of course Li Mingliang and others will also follow.

The auction was held in the multi-function hall of the hotel. It can be said that there are so many good things in this era, and the price is really worth buying compared to later generations!

Ding Mao has not known much about calligraphy and painting artworks for the past two generations, but since he is in this industry, he still knows the names of some people. Many good works appeared in the early period, including two masterpieces by Wu Guanzhong, but Ding Mao has difficulty grasping them. , I can only give up after thinking about it!

吴冠中（1919年8月29—2010年6月25日）苏省宜兴人，当代著名画家、油画家、美术教育家。

He has taught in many famous art academies and was awarded the country's highest honor in literature and art by the Ministry of Culture.

In addition, the British Museum broke the convention of only displaying ancient cultural relics and held the exhibition "Wu Guanzhong - Chinese Painters of the [-]st and [-]th Centuries" for the first time for the living painter Wu Guanzhong, and solemnly collected Wu Guanzhong's huge new color and ink work "Birds of Paradise".

He has made countless achievements in his life, and his works have extremely high artistic value and collection value. However, Ding Mao is like a novice in this regard. He wanted to take action several times, but he had no choice but to hold back!

Just when Ding Mao was depressed and unhappy, hating his lack of knowledge, Wu Guanzhong's last work was sold for more than one million, and this one at this time was only close to one hundred thousand, which made him unable to hold back. , directly raise the sign to increase the price.

In the end, he successfully bought it for 12 yuan. This painting was like a key, which successfully opened up his enthusiasm for participating in this type of art.

Although Li Mingliang reminded him that this painting was different from the previous one. One was oil painting on canvas, the other was pastel on paper, and the sizes were also very different!

But now that you’ve made a move, it’s hard to stop. You can buy one painting or several. Anyway, the value will inevitably increase. No matter how much room there is for growth, if you want to collect it, just collect more!

So the next two paintings were also by Wu Guanzhong, and they were both bought by him for about [-] yuan.

Although he had heard of Wu Guanzhong's name, he was not very familiar with the names of some other painters, so after taking pictures of these three works, he remained in a wait-and-see attitude for a while.

Until a large canvas oil painting by Leng Jun appeared, Ding Mao was finally no longer as calm as he was at the beginning, because at this time he was feeling annoyed about the two Wu Guanzhong works he had missed.

The name Leng Jun will be familiar to many people. After all, his name and works have been on the hot search for many times. For a long time in Ding Mao's last life, as soon as he opened the self-media platform and search platform, all of them were on his list. Works and names, and many big names are keen to collect his works!

He has won numerous awards and titles and is a leader and the most representative painter of contemporary hyperrealist oil painting.

When encountering his works in this era, Ding Mao naturally would not miss them. After frequent sign-ups, he finally successfully acquired them for less than 36 yuan.

Including another Leng Jun work that appeared later, he also bought it for about 20 yuan.

Li Mingliang looked at Ding Mao in confusion. He never expected that his cousin would be so courageous. However, Ding Mao's frequent attacks later shocked him even more!

After waiting and watching again for a while, when Zhang Daqian's work appeared, Ding Mao's frequent moves can be described as crazy.

张大千（1899年5月10日—1983年4月2日）川省内江人，原名正权、后改名爰、号大千、别号大千居士、下里港人、斋名大风堂，近现代国画家。

He studied calligraphers and painters Zeng Xi and Li Ruiqing successively. He mainly studied Wei stele, and also studied Xing, Cao, Zhuan, Li and other styles. He copied the famous works of Song and Yuan Dynasties and the murals of Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang. His works are deeply influenced by Buddhist and Zen thoughts and have unique characteristics. He has patriotic feelings and the courage to innovate in his artistic characteristics. He is good at landscapes, flowers, and figures, especially lotus paintings. He is unique and has reached the wonderful realm of meticulous freehand brushwork.

However, when he was in Dunhuang, he accidentally discovered that the murals on the outside of Cave 130 were of a relatively late date, and the interlayer inside was brightly colored. When he got excited, he peeled off the outer layer of murals, exposing the bright patterns on the inner layer, so he was also controversial.

A series of fourteen paintings, all vertical scroll paintings with colors on paper by Zhang Daqian, were all photographed by Ding Mao. Among them, the lowest price was around 8 yuan, and the highest one was around 58 yuan.

And this is not the end, it can only be said to be the beginning, because it was just a short wait and see. After Qi Baishi's work appeared, Ding Mao started bidding frantically again.

Qi Baishi (1863-1957), whose original name was Chunzhi, courtesy name Weiqing, and nickname Lanting, later changed his name to Huang, courtesy name Pingsheng, nickname Baishi, Baishiweng, Laobai, Xingsou, also nicknamed Jiping, Laoping, and Jiushan Weng, Qida, Mu Jushi, and the Three Hundred Stone Seal Rich Man were originally from Suzhou, were born in Xiangtan, and lived in Beijing. They were fond of calligraphy and painting since childhood.

When he was 15 years old, he learned carpentry and was good at carving. He was known as "Zhi Carpenter". At the age of 25, he began to learn calligraphy and painting, study poetry and essays, engrave seals, and also worked as a painter, painting portraits of people. After the age of 40, he traveled to various places in the north and south five times, and painted scenes everywhere, creating 52 "Borrowing Mountain Scrolls". After the age of 60, he settled in Beijing. He makes a living by carving seals and selling paintings.

He is good at painting flowers and birds, insects and fish, landscapes and figures. His pen and ink are vigorous and moist, the colors are rich and bright, the shapes are concise and vivid, and the artistic conception is honest and simple. His paintings of fish, shrimps, insects and crabs are especially interesting.

His calligraphy skills in seal and official script were based on the stele tablets of the Qin and Han Dynasties. His running calligraphy has an antique and clumsy style, and his seal cutting skills are unique to him. He is also good at writing poems and essays.

He advocated that the beauty of art lies between resemblance and dissimilarity, forming a unique freehand Chinese painting style. Its techniques, ideas, theories, etc. have all had a great influence. In addition, there are many famous disciples.

Although Ding Mao doesn't know much about calligraphy and painting, he has loved his works for two lifetimes and has always wanted to own them. However, he has little knowledge and no financial resources. When they meet him at this time, he becomes even crazier than before. He misses nothing and acts decisively. Everything he showed up was photographed.

The prices of Old Man Shiraishi's works at this time were not difficult for Ding Mao's current financial resources. The first three ink-on-paper vertical scroll paintings he bought at this time had the lowest price of only about 5, and the highest price was only close to 16. Another work with color on paper was also sold for less than 25.

This made Ding Mao sincerely glad that he could be reborn with his memories. If it were in his previous life, he wouldn't even dare to think about it!

Ding Mao only participated in the works of people whose names he knew and was familiar with. After a short wait, a work by Xu Beihong appeared, and he started bidding again.

徐悲鸿（1895年7月19日—1953年9月26日），原名徐寿康，宜兴人，画家、美术教育家。

During his lifetime, he lived frugally and collected more than 1200 works by famous calligraphers and painters from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing and modern times, as well as more than [-] books, albums, and inscriptions. After his death, all of them were donated to the country according to his wishes.

He studied poetry, calligraphy and painting from his father since he was a child. At the age of 9, he learned painting skills such as color mixing and coloring. At the age of 10, he was able to help his father fill in and apply colors to the secondary parts of the picture, and he could also write Spring Festival couplets for the village.

Later, I met Zhou Xiang, a famous oil painter, and Gao Qifeng and Gao Jianfu, representatives of the Lingnan School of Painting. I received their praise and guidance on my paintings, which enhanced my confidence in painting creation.

Later, he became acquainted with Kang Youwei, and with his support, he observed the ancient rubbings of various famous steles and copied them with great concentration. He gained a deep understanding of the essence of the Northern Stele and improved his calligraphy.

He went abroad and his tireless observation and study had a huge influence on the formation of his oil painting style.

He is good at sketching, oil painting, Chinese language, and integrates Western artistic techniques into traditional Chinese painting, creating a novel and unique style. He creates a wide range of themes, including landscapes, flowers and birds, animals, characters, history, myths, etc., all of which are written with spirit and spirit. Lifelike.

In addition, many of his works are full of patriotic feelings and sympathy for the working people, showing the perseverance and unyielding spirit of the people. In particular, his paintings of galloping horses, lions, morning roosters, etc., give people vitality and Strength, showing an exciting and positive spirit.

This vertical scroll ink on paper painting was sold by Ding Mao for nearly [-] yuan, followed closely by two consecutive works by Li Keran.

One is a vertical-scroll ink painting of a figure on paper, and the other is a vertical-scroll landscape painting of color on paper.

Li Keran (March 1907, 3 - December 26, 1989), formerly known as Li Yongshun, was a native of Xuzhou, a disciple of Qi Baishi, and an outstanding painter in modern times.

He was fond of painting since he was a child. He learned to paint landscapes when he was 13 years old. In order to revolutionize landscape painting at the age of 49, he traveled tens of thousands of miles to sketch. In his later years, his brushwork became more sophisticated and he was good at painting landscapes, figures, and especially cows.

He was forced to stop writing due to special circumstances. He honed his basic skills through calligraphy and created his own "Jiang Dang Style". The pattern of the written examination was as heavy as stele rubbings. This period was also the monumental period of his landscape painting (1979-1989). He saved up Strong and sophisticated creativity.

One was sold for about 13.5 yuan, and the other was sold for about 52 yuan, both of which were won by Ding Mao at the same time.
