"World Collection" is a program with high attention. The reason why this program can be popular is largely because of the "smashing treasures" link. In fact, this is a gimmick, playing with excitement. The guests brought their cultural relics to experts for identification. Once the experts confirmed that the cultural relics were fake, the host Wang Gang would smash the fake cultural relics directly to prevent them from flowing into the market.
Therefore, "Wang Gang smashing treasures" has become a highlight of the program. It may not be familiar to everyone to mention Wang Gang. In fact, he is the actor of He Shen, a corrupt official in Ji Xiaolan with Iron and Copper Teeth. Because Mr. Wang Gang's acting skills are good, his He Shen is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so the audience will also call him "a professional in He Shen" who has played the role of "He Shen" many times.
As an actor, Teacher Wang Gang naturally doesn't have much experience in cultural relics appraisal. Cultural relics appraisal mainly depends on experts. As a host, he is only responsible for controlling the field and smashing fake cultural relics. However, in a certain program, because the expert appraisal made a mistake, Wang Gang smashed a real cultural relic, so the guests took the program group and Teacher Wang Gang to court in a rage.
The guest's name is Fu Changyong, and he is a doctor. The cultural relics he brought are two "sweet white glazed hand cups". It is said that the patient was grateful for the gifts given to him. He found the program "Collection under the World" interesting, so he took this cultural relic to the program for expert appraisal. Before accepting the appraisal, the staff told him the rules and procedures of the program, and then signed the relevant agreement, stating that if the cultural relics were smashed, the program group would not be responsible and the guests would have to bear it themselves.
Fu Changyong participated in the program with confidence, but was finally told by experts that his cultural relics were fake, so according to the new rules, Teacher Wang Gang smashed the fake cultural relics on the spot with a hammer. Fu Changyong was heartbroken, but after all, he had already signed an agreement, so he had to accept his fate, just to make a thought. Afterwards, he asked for those pieces back.
However, other experts said that the smashed cultural relics were real after seeing the fragments, but they were from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and now they are worth at least 200 million yuan. So Fu Changyong couldn't bear it any longer, so he first talked to the program group and even made a big noise, which led to the suspension of the program, but the program group said nothing and agreed to pay compensation, so Fu Changyong took them to court in a rage.
It was not until 2020 that Mr. Wang Gang publicly responded to this matter. He said that only one "sweet white glazed hand cup" was smashed, and later many experts were invited to identify it together. Finally, it was found to be an imitation, but it was not a modern imitation, but an ancient imitation, but this did not change the fact that it was a fake cultural relic, and even if it was true, it was not worth 200 million yuan.
In addition, Fu Changyong had signed an agreement with the program group before attending the program, indicating that all the consequences were at his own risk, so Fu Changyong lost the case and bore the legal costs. Prosperous antiques, gold in troubled times, the cultural relics market is very hot now, so friends who like cultural relics should be cautious!
Cultural relics are an important auxiliary tool for experts to study history, which is of great value. However, many people will treat cultural relics as waste because they don't know them. Therefore, as sons and daughters of China, we should learn more about cultural relics and know more about history and culture.
