2716 [Lilac Garden]

The collection in summer is for long-term holding. The bigger the brand, the rarer, rarer, and more valuable the antiques are his first choice.

And those contemporary artworks may also have their value, but it has to be said that the virtual head inside is too big.

If we talk about contemporary Western artworks, it also inspires Western culture, entertainment, life and other aspects.

For example, Pittmondrian's "plaid painting" seems to be a piece of color, which doesn't look like art at all, but in fact his color scheme is widely used in many fields such as architecture, decoration, furniture, clothing, etc. Even the starting menu of in8 and in10 has been influenced by his works. Therefore, it is not surprising that one of his paintings can be sold at a high price of 50 million US dollars.

The pop art led by Andy Warhol is everywhere and is full of people's lives. Posters, advertisements, clothing, decorations, etc. are undoubtedly influenced by Pop Art. Therefore, a delicious poster by Andy Warhol can be sold at a sky-high price of 57.3 million US dollars. A bottle is really delicious, but it is only worth ten cents.

But contemporary art in China is basically separated from the lives of the people in China. They neither inspire the people's thinking about art and beauty, nor affect the lives of the people. Therefore, their value and their significance are naturally very limited.

Therefore, when collecting in summer, it is all items recognized by the world's value and meaning.

For example, the oil paintings of the famous Spanish painter Picasso, the imperial porcelains used in the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties, the paintings of masters such as Qi Baishi, Huang Binhong, and Li Keran, Gu Jingzhou's purple clay teapots, blue and white teapots from the Yuan and Ming dynasties, etc.

Among them, the most valuable one is a bronze tripod from the Shang and Zhou dynasties. This bronze tripod was leaked during the Republic of China period and was then auctioned at Sotheby's auction in Hong Kong. In the summer, 8 million Hong Kong dollars were sold and the bronze tripod was bought. Although its price is not the most expensive in the collection, its significance is that other collections are difficult to compare with beauty.

During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, those who could afford to use the tripod had a very noble status, either a king or a prince. Moreover, the "die" has been a symbol of the country's government since ancient times, so there is a saying that "attack the tripod" is to fight for dominance in the world.

When he bought this tripod in summer, it happened to be when Wang Xian gave birth to a small Xia tripod, so he bought this tripod and named his son Xia tripod.

...

In addition to clothes and shareholders, jewelry, gold and jade also accounts for a very large proportion.

These jewelry, gold and jade were purchased for Wang Xian in summer.

On the one hand, people rely on clothes and horses to saddles, and wear expensive jewelry, which is naturally beautiful and very proud.

For example, the diamond necklace is inlaid with 123 carats of diamonds, and the largest one is sixteen carats, which is quite rare. If you wear it to the dance party, this necklace alone can make her the most dazzling person in the audience.

On the one hand, jewelry, gold and jade are also good financial products. The price of top-grade jewelry is difficult to depreciate, such as jade, diamonds, jade, sapphire, rubies, emeralds, etc. The bigger the pieces, the rarer they are, the more valuable they are.

Liu Luanxiong, one of the top ten richest people in Hong Kong, likes to buy gems for children. And he makes extraordinary efforts, and he often costs hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Of course, children don’t have to wear jewelry all over the world, so investment and financial management are more important.

Of course, if it is not a precious jewelry itself, even if the price is temporarily hyped up, it will soon depreciate. For example, the once popular Huanglong Jade, with the title of jade, is actually just yellow wax stone. At the earliest, it could buy a ton for a few dozen yuan, but at the most expensive time, it cost hundreds of millions of yuan.

But Huanglong Jade failed to hype for a few years and was discovered by others. Therefore, it finally fell to the level of dozens of yuan per ton.

When buying jewelry for Wang Xian in summer, of course, it would not be a bad guy like yellow wax stone, as a bad guy, at least the golden and green cat eyes. Moreover, Xia Tian is famous for pampering his wife. Jewelry companies in Hong Kong know that he likes to buy jewelry for his wife, so they will notify him first whenever there is new goods.

In addition, Xia Tian later acquired Zhou Dafu Jewelry under Zheng Yutong, so it would be even more convenient to buy jewelry. Good goods were delivered directly to your home and allowed Wang Xian to choose. Only when the remaining ones were picked will they be sent back to the store to continue selling.

Therefore, in recent years, there have been many stocks of jewelry, gold and jade. According to summer estimates, these gold and silver jewelry alone are worth at least 2 billion Hong Kong dollars.

The most expensive one is an emerald necklace of the Grand Duke of Varodard, India, which is set with more than 150 carats of emerald gems and diamonds, worth 11 million US dollars.

...

The gold, silver and soft materials of the two major trucks are transported by Tianxia Logistics.

In order to prevent danger from occurring in the middle of the journey, Xia Tian's bodyguards personally escorted it. In addition, the mainland also attaches great importance to this, so police escorts were arranged along the way, which can be said to be very generous.

Xia Tian and Wang Xian arrived in Shanghi by private plane, then left the airport and passed the customs to take a bus to Dinglilac Garden on Huashan Road.

This garden villa is the most famous garden villa in Shanghi. It was built by Li Jingmai, the son of Li Hongzhang, an important official of the court in the late Qing Dynasty. This villa was designed by Esaiya Rogers, a well-known architect in beauty. It combines Western-style architecture and Chinese-style architecture. It is the earliest garden villa in Shanghai that combines Chinese and Western styles. Because lilacs are planted in the villa garden, it is called Lilac Garden.

After liberation, Dinglilac Garden was acquired as a state-owned and once served as the office of the Writing Association. In the early 1990s, Dinglilac Garden was disrepaired and the Writers Association, which lacked funds, was unable to maintain it, so it had to relocate. Xia Tian took the opportunity to acquire it. After some renovation, it became his new home in Shanghi.

The Lilac Garden covers an area of ​​2.67 hectares and is located in three foreign buildings, two of which are original buildings and one was built after liberation.

In addition to the building, there is also a small lake called "Weiming Lake". There is a Jiuqu Bridge on the lake, and there is a pavilion in the middle of the lake, which can be said to be quite oriental.

In addition, there are Western-style gardens, which are full of green plants, wintersweet, wisteria, sycamore, camphor, four-season osmanthus, etc., which can be called green grass and green all over the eyes, and can definitely be called a fairyland on earth.

Seeing this garden so beautiful, Wang Xian was a little bit moved because of moving, but now he is smiling.

"Brother Tian, ​​our new home is so beautiful." She couldn't help but sigh.

"Naturally, I'm still not bad at all." Xia Tian smiled.
