However, Liu Shan still said firmly: "It is impossible to be a fake. All the auction collections here have been identified by experts from the Provincial Bureau of Cultural Relics and the Museum. There is almost no chance of fakes."
"Almost none, that means there is still a chance of a fake, even if it's a fraction of a percent."
Wu Liang calmly looked at the pair of Hainan huanghuali wood Taishi chairs on the stage.
"Xiao Wu, your assumption is not valid."
Liu Shan believes that since the pair of Taishi chairs have been notarized by many experts, how could it be fake.
However, Wu Liang's hypothesis is not completely unfounded.
Because, 1 minute ago, he had activated the skill of "Treasure Appraisal", and it would be automatically released after two hours.
It's just that the skill has not been fully integrated with Wu Liang, and the effect cannot be fully exerted at present, so Wu Liang has not received a clear answer.
But after turning it on, the system quickly sent information to Wu Liang's brain.
This information is more vivid, in Wu Liang's mind, it is a disc.
Half of the disc is white and half is black. At the beginning, it looked like a Tai Chi Yin Yang fish.
The white area represents the probability that an antique is genuine, while the black area represents the probability that it is a fake.
At this moment, the white area of this disk is smaller than the black area.
This proves that there is something wrong with the pair of Hainan Huanghuali Wood Taishi Chairs!
It can't be, it's a system error!
Wu Liang was not in a hurry, because he would get the answer when the treasure appraisal technique was fully activated.
Liu Shan asked, "Xiao Wu, do you want to make a move?"
"I shouldn't make a move."
What are you doing so early? It's not sure if it's true or not.
Unless the system forces him to buy it, he won't buy a counterfeit and take it home.
Although he was prodigal, what he lost was all genuine things.
"Such a good thing, would you not sell it? I feel that you kid has a conspiracy, will you give us a blow in the end? Haha, I'm just kidding."
Liu Shan said with a smile.
Wu Liang shook his head and said, "I won't make a move, Mr. Liu, you'd better not make a move either."
In Wu Liang's consciousness, the area of the white area on the disk shrunk a bit.
"Huh? Xiao Wu, what do you say?" Liu Shan asked suspiciously.
"I suspect it's a fake." Wu Liang said bluntly.
After hearing this, Liu Shan was very puzzled.
Just now Wu Liang kept hinting that there is a chance that this pair of huanghuali wood chairs might be fakes, but now Wu Liang's tone became more and more certain, which made Liu Shan confused for a while.
Although Liu Shan admired Wu Liang's unique vision, after all, this treasure was jointly appraised by many well-known experts, and more than a dozen experts couldn't be wrong.
Moreover, at this time, Wu Liang was still about three meters away from the treasure. Even if the old professor Gu Chunping from Huadu came in person, it would be impossible for him to have such insight.
Even though Liu Shan admires Wu Liang very much, he does not worship Wu Liang blindly.
Liu Shan accidentally insisted on his own opinion this time, he said: "Xiao Wu, I know that you have certain attainments in antique appraisal, but the distance is a bit far away, and your judgment will inevitably have errors, but I still admire your antique appraisal. attainments and abilities.”
"Don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it, I'm here to make soy sauce with you." Wu Liang said with a sneer.
"No no, Xiao Wu, stop joking. If you make soy sauce, then my old face, Liu Shan, will have nowhere to go." Liu Shan shook his head.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Shan said with emotion: "To be honest, I really want to get that pair of treasures, I dream of it! I have been collecting for decades, but in fact there are only two collections that really fascinate me. The first one I want I have already got it, it is the ancient jade pig dragon you gave me, and this second piece is the Hainan Huanghuali Wood Taishi Chair in Ming Dynasty."
Liu Shan's enthusiasm for the huanghuali wood Taishi chair in the Ming Dynasty was not blindly following the trend.
Leaving aside the cultural inheritance and artistic value of this pair of Taishi chairs, the material alone is very precious, even more expensive than gold.
Hainan huanghuali wood, because of its slow growth, solid wood, and beautiful patterns, has always been ranked first among the five famous trees. It is recognized as the gold of wood, the crown of wood, and the giant panda in the mahogany world.
The wood grain texture is flowing, colorful, calm and quiet, golden and warm. Therefore, huanghuali has long been the first choice of tribute wood for the Ming and Qing royal families as home wood, and it is a symbol of aristocratic status.
The natural texture is deeply in line with the aesthetic taste of literati, and the charm of the material has made it highly praised by generations of literati and collectors from the late Ming Dynasty hundreds of years ago until today.
These alone are enough to become peerless treasures.
What's more, this is a pair of Taishi chairs made during the period when huanghuali wood was popular in the Ming Dynasty, so it is impossible not to let Liu Shan be tempted!
However, all of this must be based on the fact that it is genuine and not a fake.
Seeing Liu Shan's hot and obsessed eyes, Wu Liang shook his head.
When necessary, he will take action to stop Liu Shan, preventing him from sinking deeper and deeper.
As for the others, he didn't bother to care about them.
Whoever takes the picture will suffer a blood loss!
Finally, after a brief warm-up, this "finale dish" was about to be auctioned.
Zhao Lei, who presided over the auction, looked serious at the moment, and said solemnly: "Next, we will auction a peerless authentic piece, the Ming Dynasty Hainan Huanghuali Wood Taishi Chair."
Zhao Lei Balabala introduced the history of this grand master chair, as well as the special and precious features of Hainan Huanghuali wood.
In short, all kinds of compliments have been used on this grand master's chair.
Even if he didn't praise too much, those collectors couldn't restrain their excitement at the moment.
Especially those old guys with literati feelings have hotter eyes than Liu Shan.
"it is good!"
"The auction begins!"
"The starting price is 5000 million!"
Zhao Lei's last words exploded over the heads of the audience like thunder, causing an uproar in an instant.
The starting price turned out to be 5000 million!
This has created a historical record for the provincial capital auction!
Compared with the previous auctions, they are nothing compared to the big ones, they are not at the same level.
"The starting price is really high. It seems that there is no one hundred million that can't be won, but this thing is really a treasure!"
"I thought I could get involved this time, but I'd better give up. The starting price alone will cost me my money!"
"The gods fight, mortals watch the fun, I am powerless."
"It's a good show. The Zhao family, Li family, Song family, and those old academics will definitely fight for it."
As long as the price is not too high, the Zhao family, Li family, and Song family, the three major families in the provincial capital, can definitely afford it. After all, a family business is a big family business.
As for Chen Boqing, Yang Bo and other old guys who are engaged in academics and collections, they can do it with a little effort.
They are not simply poor old pedants, they also have their own property, the property is not big, it may be just a small antique shop, but in the small antique shop, there are almost no objects in it worth millions.
If these old guys sell off the antiques they have collected for many years, it is still possible to make up that amount.
Of course, this could cost them everything.
With such a high starting price, one-third of the people were directly eliminated.
The celebrities didn't participate in it. They came to participate in the charity auction just to make fun of it. By the way, they gilded their faces and took a few ordinary collections to make a face project. Only the rich dared to enter the game for real big money.
When there was an uproar at the scene, an old man shouted: "Fifty one million!"
In an instant, everyone fell silent.
Wu Liang recognized the old man, it was Chen Boqing who was chatting before the auction.
It's just that Chen Boqing didn't stop for a few seconds, and someone called out the price again.
"5000 million and 200!"
Chen Boqing blew his beard and stared, and said to this person: "Old Sun, you just agreed not to participate, you are a man who backtracked on what you said!"
"Tsk tsk, do you really believe it? The whole set of Ming and Qing furniture in my house is short of this pair of chairs. Who doesn't want a good thing? If the price is high, there must be nothing wrong with it."
"You... you old grandson, you are not a thing!"
"Chen Boqing, I've had enough of you!"
These two old fellows almost pinched each other with their needles facing each other.
Both of them are well-known veterans in the industry, especially Chen Boqing, who is also the deputy director of the Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau and holds the title of scholar.
I didn't expect to turn against each other for a pair of old chairs. It seems that this pair of Hainan yellow rosewood chairs is really precious.
Just as the two seniors were arguing, another voice sounded.
This voice also came from an old man.
"I'll pay 6000 million!"
The old man said calmly, looking at his posture, he was calmer than Chen Boqing and others.
Wu Liang asked Liu Shan casually: "Mr. Liu, who is this old man? Why haven't I seen him before?"
There were many people at the scene, and Wu Liang had never met the old man face to face.
Liu Shan said solemnly: "He is difficult to deal with, and you have some contact with him."
Suddenly, Wu Liang was puzzled.
"I was connected to him? How did I not know?"
