Who is the mystery of "Qi Jiayu"? A jade stirs up a thousand waves (on)

For Mr. Zhang, a fan of Qi Jiayu, the “Weekly Quality Report” on July 15, 2012 is undoubtedly the most heartbreaking issue in the history of this program. The "Qi Jiayu" sold by the Panjiayuan "Superbaozhai" antique shop in Beijing, which was exposed in this episode, was made from the new jade processing enterprise in Wushan, Gansu. The "News Live Room" and "Weekly Quality Report" columns exposed Qi Jiayu's counterfeiting insider at a frequency of three times a day. CCTV reporters found that the antique jade shop here has processed a lot of “Qi Jiayu”, which is popular in the antique market, by aligning with the visit of Wushan County, Gansu Province. In order to make the newly processed jade more like ancient jade, local processors have many unique secrets, such as soaking old jade with potassium permanganate syrup, and sticking dirt with mashed potatoes to look old and natural.

Local operators told reporters that many of the "Qi Jiayu" sold in the antiques market in Beijing and other places are processed here. After this episode caused an uproar, the reporter went to Beijing Antique City to visit and found that most shops not only sell Qijiayu as always, but also show a very high professional conscience. They are nervous and eager to prove when they see the reporter. at this point. As for the "Super Baozhai" antique shop exposed by CCTV, it was still open as usual, but the card was hidden. The relevant person in charge of the antique city said that “the investigation has been carried out, and if it is true, the merchant will be retired.”

In the CCTV program, the ancient jade expert who edited the fifteen-volume "The Complete Collection of Jade Art in China" said that the jade used in the Qijia culture period is similar to today's, which is also the main reason for the current supply of fakes and counterfeits. The real Qijia jade "is a plain surface, the surface has no ornamentation", and the shape is also small, mainly due to the influence of productivity at that time. Due to the lack of transportation machinery, many bulky materials cannot be transported to the Central Plains.

Mr. Liu, the curator of a museum in Dingxi, Gansu Province, which claims to have the largest collection of Qijiayu, said that Qi Jiayu is “simple, simple, and very small”. Nowadays, the Qijiayu collection on the market is very rare. "Qijiayu" basically belongs to the old-fashioned imitation. "The big type, the inscriptions and the lyrics are all made and made old. Even if it is collected nationwide, it may only find one or twenty pieces." Mr. Liu said, Want to collect Qijiayu authentic products, still need to look for long time in Gansu, Qinghai and other places.

Like the one who invests millions of people who have collected thousands of "Qiguyu", I am afraid that there are not a few people. If I hear this assertion, even if I don't want to go bankrupt, I can be considered a good one.

However, it is inevitable that the majority of the folk Qi Jiayu is a fake, based on only a few "existing patterns" on the books and the so-called "very rare" so far. You can't say that the swan you have seen is white, so the black swan must not be a swan. There is also a suspicion of a monopoly of discourse, especially in the field of antique art identification, which has no "objective rules" to follow, and all facts prevail.

Different voices soon appeared. First, Lei Congyun, former director and researcher of the China National Cultural Relics Exchange Center of the National Museum of China, was given a fierce rebuttal.

Lei Congyun believes that Qijiayu, which was spoken by the ancients, is mainly characterized by simple and rough planar flakes and no ornamentation. This is his view in the fifteenth volume of "The Complete Works of Jade Art Unearthed in China" in Gansu, Qinghai and Xinjiang Jade Articles. From the perspective of archaeological excavations, this statement is more in line with the actual findings of archaeological discoveries, but it is suspected of dogmatism by completely rejecting other types in accordance with this statement.

For example, he cited the complete collection of jade articles unearthed in China, which contains a jade string jade unearthed in Jingning, Gansu. The string pattern is very uniform and fine, and the polishing is also the top grade. It was discovered by migrant workers during the construction of Jingning. Now it is collected in the Jingning County Cultural Management Office. However, if it was not discovered by the construction at that time and handed over to the Cultural Management Office, the current archaeology may not have been seen in the stringed jade. The string jade is a "black swan" outside the traditional large-scale Qijiayu.

"The 183 things I recorded in "Qi Yu Yu Yun" dare to say that most of them are authentic and treasures. Because I have seen and moved these things one by one, and I have not seen them alone at the time. These are related to this. The sellers, buyers, and counterfeiters of the "event" have nothing to do with "Qi Jiayu." The program unreasonably involves me and the sellers, buyers, and counterfeiters of Qi Jiayu, and will work with me. As a negative expert and a negative textbook, it is not only completely confusing, but also a great violation of me and my work."

It’s true that it’s fake and true.

Yao Zheng, director of the Jade Committee of the China Collectors Association, even said that there are a large number of people in the private Qijia jade, and some people reported that "high imitation" is to avoid the criminal responsibility of the tomb. Yao Zheng said that during his investigations in places such as 蚌埠, many shops had extremely high craftsmanship. Many professionals said that they were real antiques, but they insisted that they did it themselves, and they were high imitations. But you asked him who designed the pattern, why did he design such a pattern, where the jade was bought, and where the remaining jade was, they could not answer a question.

"The archaeological data also clearly shows that there are 83 jade plaques unearthed from a tomb in Wuwei Huangniangtai, Gansu, not to mention how many treasures are hidden by the folks. Recently, a collector took two pieces of Qijiayu with ornamentation. Go to the appraisal agency Beijing Fufangzhai, which is accredited by the Ministry of Justice, for identification. Whether it is a small jade with four-faced ornamentation or a jade-inlaid jade, it is sure that Qijiayu is undoubtedly determined by micro-marking. So, for things that don’t understand, The so-called experts are best not to easily deny."

"If there are only 1800 pieces of Qijiayu authenticity in existence, then do you dare to let it out of overseas?" From another perspective, many of the treasures that are now flowing overseas are not because of the ignorance of some of our experts. In fact, some foreign groups are now desperately suppressing China’s private collections. They want to squeeze the wealth left by our ancestors into fake products and then buy them at low prices. So we are going to do now. It is a cultural defense war and cultural relics defense."
