In the world of antique cultural relics preservation, the intestines will be repentant and planted, and there has always been a saying called "punching the eyes", which has now become the most commonplace in the preservation community, and sometimes within a minute, there will be eye-punching work.
Although this moment is short, it tests the psychological quality of the depositary. Whether or not the right choice can be grasped, whether it can buy something worthy of the name, the ability and vision of the depositor play a key role.
01 Loves literature, but chooses another field
Today we talk to us about the name of this "leak king" is called Ma Weidu, in the eighties of the last century he was a revision, that time set off a literary boom in the country, Ma Weidu is also very keen on literature, but also specially submitted to the China Youth Daily, it is also with this experience of submission, so that Ma Weidu completely got rid of the identity of the worker, stepped into the profession of revision.
Ma Wei did not like this kind of boring and regular days, in order to meet more battles, he was disgusted and directly chose to jump ship and enter the preservation profession.
However, at that time, Ma Weidu did not hurry to quit this stable job, but in his spare time, he would go to the preservation mall to see his favorite antiques. In this way, Ma Weidu, who was not from the science class, relied on his many years of practical experience in preservation and gradually gained prestige in the field of preservation.
02 Valued the bowl worth 30,000 yuan, did not take the risk to buy, but let his intestines regret
All along, in the process of preserving antiques, Ma Mo has been enthusiastic about preserving some small bowls and small dishes, initially spending low prices to preserve, and after the continuous growth of strength, Ma Mo has initially become more and more expensive to buy.
At that time, his family did not support his preference, and always felt that it was an unreliable job, but Ma Modu still insisted on preserving antiques despite his family's hostility. Among the many cultural relics, Ma Modu was very concerned about a cultural relic, and it was also because this cultural relic completely changed him.
At that time, Ma Modu was on a business trip to Shanghai, and accidentally saw a small flower bowl, the price of this small flower bowl at that time was 30,000 yuan, and in the 1980s, 30,000 yuan was almost astronomical for an average working-class family, and no one dared to ask for it.
Seeing this finely crafted small flower bowl, which is a small yellow bowl used by the royal family, Ma Mo was moved, but he hesitated, thirty thousand yuan to buy this small flower bowl, which is equivalent to him putting all his belongings into it, in case there is no appreciation after buying it, it means that the family wealth is empty.
After losing this ancient bowl for the first time, every time he came to Shanghai for business, Ma Mo would go to this window to see this small flower bowl.
But the good times did not last long, when Ma Modu came again, he found that this antique porcelain bowl was now gone, he was anxious to inquire about the clerk, the clerk told him that he had now been bought by a foreign friend for thirty thousand yuan, after hearing the news, Ma Modu felt cold in his heart, lost this treasure, so that Ma Mo had a feeling of lost love.
Unexpectedly, after two years, when this bowl appeared at Sotheby's auction, and finally was auctioned off at a price of 30 million, when he learned of this news, Ma Modu's intestines were remorseful, and he hated himself for not being willing to buy this bowl with all his belongings.
Now, this royal bowl is now worth more than 200 million, more than 6,000 times more than the original price, Ma Modu felt remorse for this matter all his life, and it was precisely because of this mistake that he made up his mind to resign from his post to modify this reliable job, because this work could not support his preferences, and it was also because of this decision that Ma Modu gained prestige in the preservation circle and changed his life.
