The genuine calligraphy of Emperor Song Huizongs slim gold style!
This calligraphy is very easy to recognize! Because this painting is nearly identical to the previous fake one.
However, the characters in this calligraphy are more beautiful, more graceful and elegant, more vibrant, and more skillfully rendered. With just a glance, you can tell whats authentic and whats fake.
I never expected that the genuine calligraphy would be hidden within the fake one, concealed for hundreds of years!
Its truly astonishing, admiring the wisdom of the ancients!
So, does that mean this calligraphy is very valuable?
Of course, the genuine calligraphy of Emperor Song Huizongs slim gold style. Can you imagine its value?
Everyone was in a state of shocked excitement.
However, there were two people who were dumbfounded: the original owner of this calligraphy.
There really is a painting within the painting!
And its a genuine painting!
Lao Sun examined it again for a moment and said with a trembling voice, This is an authentic piece, absolutely authentic! Only the true Emperor Song Huizong could create such lively, swift strokes, with slender and graceful characters!
Moreover, these characters are very mature, undoubtedly created during his later years! And considering the calligraphys impeccable condition, as if it were just written, its value is even higher!
The value of this calligraphy is immeasurable!
Wang Pangzis voice trembled as he asked, Lao Sun, you say its value is immeasurable but any artwork should have some value, right? Can you estimate how much this calligraphy is worth?
You yourself are an expert in the field, so why dont you estimate a price? Wang Pangzi raises a trembling finger, One hundred million!
One hundred million? Lao Sun clucks his tongue and shakes his head, Too low! Previously, there was a calligraphy of Emperor Song Huizongs slim gold style sold at an auction house, and it fetched a staggering 250 million!
I saw that calligraphy; it belongs to Emperor Song Huizongs early works, and his brushstrokes werent yet fully mature! Moreover, the calligraphy was somewhat damaged, affecting its price! And yet, it still fetched a sky-high price of 250 million!
Our calligraphy, on the other hand, is from Emperor Song Huizongs later period, his brushwork is already fully mature and unique! Furthermore, our calligraphy is larger than the one you mentioned, and its in such impeccable condition. So, tell me, how much is it worth?
Wang Pangzis legs went weak, and he collapsed with a thump.
Wu Ge also felt dizzy, as if he might fall at any moment. The previous calligraphy of Emperor Song Huizong was sold for 250 million!
And theirs, which was better preserved and from Emperor Song Huizongs later period, wouldnt it be even more valuable?
They just sold a calligraphy worth over two hundred million for 3 million? Their faces turned pale.
The more they thought about it, the more they regretted it!
But at this moment, nobody paid attention to these two people. Everyones focus was on this calligraphy.
I truly love this calligraphy! Every character is art, every stroke is so perfect, naturally exquisite! Only Emperor Song Huizong could create such beautiful slim gold characters! Lao Sun was lavish with his praise.
Then he looked up with anticipation and said, Young man, I really adore this calligraphy! Will you sell it? Ill buy it for 250 million!
Wang Pangzi, who had just stood up, collapsed again.
Lin Beifan shook his head.
Lao Sun furrowed his brow, 250 million is indeed a bit low, and it doesnt do justice to this piece! How about this, Ill offer 300 million, hoping you can give my old comrade a face!
Wang Pangzi, who had just gotten up, fell weak again.
Lin Beifan still shook his head.
How about 320 million?
Wang Pangzis legs gave out completely.
350 million!
He could only support his body by placing his hands on the table.
Young man, why dont you name a price? How much money would it take for you to part with this calligraphy? As long as the price is reasonable, Ill consider it! Lao Sun pleaded earnestly.
Both of Wang Pangzis hands were limp, and he fell down again. Wu Ge was stunned. Did I just give away a calligraphy worth 350 million?
Mind and body felt numb!
In Lao Suns hopeful gaze, Lin Beifan shook his head, Lao Sun, its not about the money! Its that I genuinely love this calligraphy and dont plan to sell it. I want to keep it in my collection!
If it were the early days of his career, he might have sold this calligraphy for those few hundred million.
But now, he wasnt in dire need of money.
He didnt need to give away valuable things anymore. Keeping this calligraphy could also help him play the role of a cultured person.
And its a way to get back at a certain someone, hehe!
Lao Sun asked again, Are you really not selling?
Lin Beifan shook his head, Not selling!
Lao Sun felt quite disappointed, Alright, a gentleman doesnt force others to do what they dont wish to. But I hope youll allow me to appreciate it a bit longer!
Of course!
Then, Lin Beifan turned and excitedly hugged the bewildered Wu Ge. Brother Wu, thank you. You helped me choose such a valuable calligraphy!
I never imagined that spending only 3 million would get me a genuine calligraphy of Emperor Song Huizongs slim gold style, worth over 300 million! Haha!
I never imagined that a single transaction could earn me so much!
A return rate of over a hundred times, Ive never made this much money in a day from playing the stock market!
Little brother, youre truly remarkable!
Youre my lucky star, youre my god of wealth!
After this, Ill definitely reward you generously!
Hahahaha! Wu Ges mouth twitched, and his heart clenched along with it.
Each sentence felt like salt being poured onto his wounds!
So painful! So excruciating!
So heart-wrenching!
On the other side, Wang Pangzi was also clutching his chest tightly.
350 million I lost this much?
The pain was so intense that he couldnt even breathe!
Facing the extremely excited Lin Beifan, Wu Ge finally forced a smile, Boss Lin, dont mention it. Its what I should do! If youre making money, then Im also happy, right?
Lin Beifan burst into laughter, Exactly! If I make money, I definitely wont treat you unfairly! Brother Wu, in this joyful moment, why arent you smiling? Give us a smile!
Wu Ge grinned, Hehe, huhu~
Why does that sound like crying?
On the other side, Wang Pangzi, deeply moved by the scene, burst into tears with a loud cry. After everyones laughter subsided, Lin Beifan affectionately patted Wu Ges shoulder, Brother Wu, the next task is up to you! Find me another valuable treasure, and Ill make sure to reward you handsomely with a big red envelope later!
Understood, President Lin! But Im feeling a bit urgent, I need to use the restroom!
Wu Ge thought he needed to go to the restroom to wash his face and calm down. Lin Beifan waved his hand, Go ahead, the sooner you go, the sooner youll be back!
I have a restroom here, Ill take him, Wang Pangzi said, clutching his chest as he followed Wu Ge.
