Collections have existed since ancient times. Since ancient times, some rich people like to collect some treasures and antiques and watch them at home. This preference has crossed the historical gap and still affects people's behavior orientation. The collection industry began to form and develop a long time ago, and in modern times it has a certain normative system.
I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the collection industry. This industry is very profitable, but not everyone can participate.
First of all, you should have a certain amount of funds. Without a strong capital chain as a support, it is difficult to regard the antique industry as a means of making a living. The second is to have long-term patience. The profit recovery cycle of the collection industry is relatively long, and sometimes it may be ignored for a year or even longer.
Money and patience are not enough. You have a good eye for getting ahead in the collection circle. You must be able to see the authenticity of cultural relics or collections and tell the reason. It can be said that this requirement is indispensable for talent and hard work. But this is not the most important thing. What is the most important thing? It is illusory luck, and sometimes when luck comes, a person who knows nothing can make a fortune from the collection; Sometimes a recognized expert may accidentally miss it.
On the other hand, even if the threshold of the collection industry is so high, there are still many people involved and enjoy it, which shows the charm of the collection industry.
Because of its particularity, the collection industry is actually difficult to supervise, so some pirated antiques can easily be sold at high prices in the market. This not only caused great losses to buyers, but also encouraged this bad atmosphere, so for a time, the antique market was once neglected because it didn't know when to buy fakes.
However, with the continuous improvement of the national policy and supervision system in this regard, and the experts sent by the museum personally identify the authenticity. This just stopped this unhealthy trend. By the way, antique collection is a big part of the collection industry, but the collection industry is not only collecting antiques, but also many valuable and historical items are worth collecting.
With the increasing enthusiasm of the public for various collections, in order to cater to the public's interest, many programs about treasures have been released one after another. Most of these programs invite experts to the scene to identify the authenticity, which can not only achieve ratings, but also help some people identify the authenticity of antiques in their hands.
In a treasure hunt, a man carefully handed over his antique collection to an expert. Experts opened it and saw that it was a stone shaped like braised pork. The technical term was "meat stone".
Meat stone, as its name implies, is a stone that looks like "meat". Most of it belongs to sedimentary rock, siliceous rock or metamorphic rock, and can be divided into natural meat stone and craft meat stone. The difference between the two lies in whether there is human labor intervention. Natural meat stone is very valuable, for example, Dongpo meat stone, which is now hidden in Taipei Museum, is the treasure of its town hall. But the value of craft meat stone is very low, which is really heaven and hell.
The man told the story that he bought this meat stone. He loved it from the moment he saw it, so he bought it without thinking. In order to raise money, he sold his villa and took out the 500 thousand at once. Hearing this, the experts were dumbfounded. After a long time, he turned to God and said, "You are cruel."
When several experts observed the stone surface, they found artificial traces, which made the audience sweat. If it is a craft stone, then this 500 thousand is really wasted. However, this man's luck is not too bad. According to experts' analysis, although this meat stone is a bit artificial, natural factors account for the vast majority, so this stone is worth about 2 million yuan in the market, and the audience is in an uproar.
Experts suggest that men donate this stone to the museum. This baby should be well protected and can't be damaged any more. Moreover, this stone is of great research value to geographers.
