The hobby of collecting antiques is indeed very interesting, of course, it must be rich people, people without money are generally impossible to play this thing, unless you have Zhuang Rui's "golden pupil", otherwise it is still honest to work!
The person we want to introduce in this article is an ordinary citizen, named Hu Wengao, who lives in Shenmu County, Shaanxi, so why does Hu Wengao intersect with antique cultural relics?
Things have to start from the end of the 90s of the last century, on the way home from work, Hu Wengao found a person selling copper mirrors on the side of the street, Hu Wengao was bored to go to see, to be honest, Hu Wengao did not understand the identification knowledge of cultural relics, is to think that this copper mirror looks very interesting, and it is not very expensive, and finally Hu Wengao spent 50 yuan to buy this copper mirror.
Unexpectedly, this purchase has since made Hu Wengao and the antique collection have an indissoluble relationship, and even once let their family and friends feel confused and confused, and his wife said that her husband Hu Wengao bought a bunch of broken goods, the price is expensive, but there is no use, so the wife complained about Hu Wengao for more than ten years.
Not to mention that Hu Wengao's salary is still very high, for more than ten years after this, Hu Wengao spent tens of millions of dollars to buy these "rags" in the eyes of others, and even sold his property to buy, his wife naturally quarreled with him frequently, and others also privately said that he was in the devil.
By 2008, Hu Wengao had bought more than 1,000 pieces of "broken goods", including jade, bronze mirrors, stone tools, bone tools, porcelain, pottery, etc. Of course, Hu Wengao did not buy blindly when he saw what he liked.
Hu Wengao since he liked the interest of collecting, he began to continuously learn some cultural relics, archaeology and other knowledge, there are many books in the family are bought by Hu Wengao himself, in order to improve his cultural relics knowledge ability, it can be said that Hu Wengao now has a very deep achievement.
Moreover, Hu Wengao also participated in some of the industry's top cultural relics expert courses, such as how to distinguish the authenticity of bronzes, as well as jade and other courses, in addition to learning with some antique dealers, cultural relics dealers, it can be said that Hu Wengao really gathered the strengths of a hundred.
In 2008, there were cultural relics experts who came to visit, they learned that there was a person named Hu Wengao who liked to collect antique cultural relics very much, so they came to visit, when the cultural relics experts saw more than a thousand cultural relics collected by Hu Wengao, it was really the whole person was shocked, it was no less than a small museum collection.
After careful study and appraisal by experts, it was found that these cultural relics collected by Hu Wengao were absolutely valuable, and then Shenmu County began to build its own museum, so it found experts to negotiate with Hu Wengao, hoping that he could donate his own antique cultural relics, Hu Wengao was actually very happy, but he had a request, that is, he hoped that he could pay for donations, after all, these more than a thousand pieces of treasures were bought by him, at least more than 10 million yuan.
However, later, perhaps because there was some disagreement on compensation, Hu Wengao's cultural relics were not handed over, but later Hu Wengao still agreed to take the cultural relics to the Shenmu County Museum for exhibition, so that more people can appreciate the beauty of these treasures.
