"You can't talk to President Hu like that! He's a close friend of mine and Old Man Ye, and he's an old friend of mine too!"
Everyone was horrified, never expecting that a young man would be a friend of two antique connoisseurs, and that they seemed to have a good relationship.
"It's nothing, as long as everyone's happy. After all, we're all here to distinguish the genuine from the fake. So these things are harmless!"
These experts were speechless. They had originally hoped to use this opportunity to establish a connection with Professor Zhong and his team.
But they couldn't find a way to make this kid instantly bring the show to life.
So everyone was speechless.
At the same time, Mr. Zhong also hurried up and headed straight for Hu Yuan.
"I didn't expect to see you here, kid. If I remember correctly, it's because of that painting by Wen Zhengming!"
These experts were once again shocked; they had no idea what was going on.
They initially thought Hu Yuan was just trying to fool them, but unexpectedly, Professor Zhong stood up to refute the rumors.
"This is just a small matter; who knows, we might find quite a few treasures today!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhong nodded, and then everyone took their seats.
They were also discussing this matter extensively.
After a while, a treasure hunter came into view carrying an antique.
"Strange, where have I seen this before?"
Hu Yuan whispered something, but made sure no one else could hear.
The experts were all discussing the matter, but no one could reach a consensus.
"May I ask the collector, what is this item?"
The host, gentle and kind, looked at the treasure hunter.
"This is a cloisonné bracelet, passed down from our ancestors."
After the treasure hunter finished speaking, all the experts and scholars present rushed forward without exception.
But after everyone looked around, no one thought it was a genuine article.
They all felt that the cloisonné was poorly made and lacked the unique characteristics of the Jingtai period.
"We all agree that this piece lacks the characteristics of the Jingtai period..."
Just as one expert was about to finish speaking, Hu Yuan raised his hand.
Everyone looked on in surprise, not knowing what he meant.
What insights does this expert have?
Although the host was not happy, these were all important guests, and it would be difficult to deal with them if they were really angered.
"I think this piece is a treasure!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the expert next to him asked in surprise.
"What are your thoughts?"
The atmosphere inside the room instantly became tense, and no one dared to say a word.
"Although this piece doesn't appear as exquisite as traditional cloisonné, it possesses all the essential characteristics. As for what you said about it being an official kiln porcelain piece, it's undoubtedly genuine!"
These words filled everyone present with terror.
Then, Hu Yuan slowly walked down and gradually approached the collectible.
"If I'm not mistaken, this artifact was once worn on Emperor Jingtai's wrist!"
Those present found it somewhat unbelievable, after all, this collection had already been designated by many people.
If someone like that causes trouble, then we're doomed.
However, Mr. Zhong, who was standing to the side, gradually walked down.
"Indeed, this is a fine piece, but ordinary people can't tell the difference. It must have been used by one of Emperor Jingtai's concubines."
Upon hearing what Elder Zhong said, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. They had just announced the results, but they never expected to be contradicted.
With the added element of a live broadcast, everyone's reputation was completely tarnished.
"Mr. Zhong, why don't you take another look? This thing is clearly a fake!"
People started whispering among themselves, and the recording of the show was about to stop.
"Okay, let's have a short commercial break first, and we'll see how it goes after the break!"
The host was quite professional and quickly introduced an advertisement.
The immediate priority is to redefine these collections, and we can only discuss this privately.
"It seems we were really wrong. This thing appears to have been deliberately made to mislead future generations, which is why it has so many traces. This thing is definitely real!"
Everyone was quite happy to hear this.
What they didn't know was that Hu Yuan had already figured it out, but he hadn't had time to discuss it with them, which led to this outcome.
Otherwise, it would be a huge mistake to talk nonsense.
The experts all found it difficult to deal with, but they now also thought that Hu Yuan was a shrewd person.
"Mr. Hu is indeed very discerning; we were truly blind just now."
The experts started flattering him, and Hu Yuan didn't say anything.
"It's nothing, just a trivial skill, not worth mentioning."
Although Hu Yuan's words displeased the experts around him, what could they say when they were outmatched in skill?
Everyone had no choice but to suffer in silence.
The program resumed recording, and everyone followed Hu Yuan's advice, saying that the artifact was undoubtedly genuine.
"Alright, after expert review, this item has been confirmed as genuine. Congratulations to the collector!"
After the show was recorded, many people began to look for Hu Yuan.
"Mr. Hu, your keen eye saved us all just now. This is our Cultural Relics Association's name card. You can use this to find us, and someone will definitely greet you personally!"
Hu Yuan glanced at the old expert, though he himself had no interest in the matter.
However, given their kind invitation, I couldn't very well refuse.
Hu Yuan nodded, then took the name card and put it in his bag.
He then turned and left without looking back.
When I got home, I turned on my computer and found that today's treasure appraisal program had sparked a lot of discussion.
"I never expected that the old expert's insight would be inferior to that of a young man. This young man is truly remarkable!"
"I wonder who this young man is? He looks so familiar."
Seeing everyone's comments in the comment section, Hu Yuan was all smiles.
However, there are still some things that Hu Yuan needs to do.
That means venturing into the world of antique and collectible items.
Hu Yuan had a fondness for collecting antiques and collectibles in his previous life, so he was quite confident in his ability to enter the world of antiques and collectibles.
Through today's program, many experts, scholars, and even antique appraisal enthusiasts must now know their names.
So it won't be long before someone comes knocking on your door.
I am confident that I will be able to achieve my existing goals in due time.
But what he truly hoped for was to bring back some of the treasures that had been lost overseas.
In this way, he can be said to have fulfilled one of his wishes.
Just then, an overseas call came in, catching Hu Yuan off guard.
"Mr. Hu, I've heard you're quite well-known in the world of antique collecting. I'd like to have a chat with you in person. Do you have the time?"
