The Story Behind the Collection of Antiques: Ma Weidu's Experience and Regrets in Collecting Leaks

Back then, Ma Weidu participated in an auction and discovered a "red deer head" with a starting price of 800000 yuan. Ma Weidu thought it was very cheap. Just as he was about to get started, someone whispered to him, "That's a fake. Don't fall for it

At that time, Ma Weidu was just a newcomer who had just entered the antique circle by selling medicinal herbs. His words had little weight, and not many people knew him. Once, he went to an auction in Hong Kong with a sum of 1 million yuan. Before the auction began, he had a crush on a blue and white enamel red deer head statue and saw that it was priced at 800000 yuan.

He secretly believed that the price of this red deer head was not limited to 800000 yuan. He went alone to examine the displayed red deer head, which was ruddy and beautiful in color. He identified it as a genuine and ancient antique with a long history, and the true value of this item must be very high.

But as soon as I sat down, the wealthy people around me all said that it was fake and counterfeit. Don't be deceived or wasted money. Ma Wei didn't believe it, so he went to look and found a few large characters on the bottom of the bottle, which clearly belonged to the Ming Dynasty porcelain. Ma Weidu thought, 'Why is this a fake?'?

Ma Weidu asked the tycoon sitting next to him and said, "Who did you hear that? It's a fake, can't they tell?" The tycoon said mysteriously, "This is my internal information. I think you are also a regular customer of the auction, so I'll remind you that if you were someone else, I really wouldn't reveal it

Ma Weidu was very curious, and it didn't look fake at all. After careful observation several times, he confirmed that it was genuine. He felt strange. Since it was genuine, did the appraisal team take a look at it? Think of those experts who have also taken a blind eye, sometimes treating genuine products as imitations and collecting them as genuine ones. He has encountered this kind of thing.

I carefully looked at the brochure and the lot, and the auction also stated that this thing was a fake. Ma Wei couldn't understand this, so he asked the person at halftime how they were sure it was a fake. At first, the person didn't explain it well, so he mentioned other lots.

Ma Weidu felt that the opportunity had come. Although the Great Deer Head Zun was not a 12 zodiac sign and was worth tens of millions, it was definitely more than 800000. This leak can be picked up now. The old horse went directly to the backstage and found the person in charge, saying, "Since this red deer head is a fake, it may not be sold at the auction table. It's better to lower the price and sell it to me to save some auction costs

The person in charge directly refused and said, "How can this be done? All the antiques at the auction are publicly displayed and clearly marked with price codes. If the price is temporarily changed, it will be dishonest to others, which is not acceptable." Ma Weidu was also in a dilemma, but if he found something missing, he would make a profit. After repeated requests, the other party refused to lower the price.

Ma Weidu tried to persuade several times again, but still failed. In the end, he decided to film it honestly. After the auction started, Ma Weidu was the first to ask for a price of 800000 yuan! Because many celebrities and billionaires present knew it was a fake, they were not very interested in this treasure.

At the auction, there were billionaires from Sotheby's and some industry collectors, all of whom had their heads and faces. A tycoon directly raised a sign and shouted out the auction price of "140w". Within a few days, someone later shouted out the price of 160w. Finally, this item is worth 80w
