    Meng Zitao got out of the car and walked into the villa with the big box in his arms. Just as he stepped into the door of the living room, he was stopped by a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old.

    The young man looked at Meng Zitao with a critical eye: "Are you the Meng Zitao who my cousin said can go to heaven and earth?"

    Seeing the young man's appearance of five and six, Meng Zitao was a little funny, but also a little confused: "Who are you?"

    ¡°I am Zhong Jinxian¡¯s cousin.¡±

    The young man said: "I have a painting here. If you can identify the authenticity within ten minutes, I will call you brother. If not, you should do whatever you want!"

    Meng Zitao felt even more strange and said, "Do you have any misunderstanding?"

    The young man sneered and said: "There is no misunderstanding. I think you are timid. What are you talking about as a contemporary grass saint? How shameless are you?"

    Meng Zitao saw Zhong Jinxian winking at him not far away, and he also smiled: "Okay, let's take a look."

    "Huh!" The young man snorted, and then brought Meng Zitao to the table: "This is the painting, take a look."

    Meng Zitao raised his eyes and saw that this painting is based on the landscape of the East China Sea. The mountains are continuous, with endless reflections, clouds and fog cover, the hillsides are dotted with lush trees and weeds, forests, rivers, fishing houses, and windy valleys.  The smoke and clouds are dim.  The mountains, rivers, trees and rocks are all shrouded in ethereal haze, appearing plain and deep, vast and profound.

    The author of the inscription is Wu Bin, who was a painter in the Ming Dynasty. There was no art academy in the Ming Dynasty, and the establishment of court painters was generally affiliated with other provinces and ministries.  During the Wanli period, Wu Bin was summoned by Ming Shenzong Zhu Yijun, and was awarded the title of Zhongshu Sheren and the director of the Ministry of Government and Industry. He served the inner court as a painter and entered the Jiangnan literati circle.  His works are world-famous for his landscapes and Buddhist statues, and most of them were valued and collected by the courts of the Ming and Qing dynasties.

    Meng Zitao just took one look at it and said, "This painting looks pretty good."

    As soon as these words came out, not to mention the shock of the young man, Zhong Jinxian next to him was also stunned.

    After a while, the young man came back to his senses and said with a shocked face: "That's what you guessed!"

    Meng Zitao chuckled: "You think it's a guess, right?"

    "You must have guessed it. Even my grandfather can't confirm its authenticity at a glance." The young man said firmly.

    Of course, it was impossible for Zhong Jinxian to think that Meng Zitao was relying on guessing, and asked: "Zitao, how did you tell its authenticity at a glance?"

    Meng Zitao said with a smile: "Generally speaking, real calligraphy and painting have charm, aura, and three-dimensionality that cannot be achieved by imitations, and the ink color also has a sense of penetration that cannot be achieved by inkjet printing. But these differences only exist in the eyes of experts, not in the eyes of experts."  If you observe for a long time, you won¡¯t have this skill.¡±

    When the young man heard this, he immediately became angry. He pointed at Meng Zitao and said, "You actually said that my grandfather is not strong enough. Do you know who my grandfather is!"

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "I don't know, and I don't want to know, whether you should fulfill your previous promise now."

    The young man argued: "You guessed it. I didn't lose this game."

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Little brat, if you can't afford to lose, just say so."

    "You are the brat, your whole family is brats!" The boy blushed and said angrily: "Just wait for me, I will get another piece of porcelain. If you can tell right away,  Whether it¡¯s true or not, you win!¡±

    ¡°With that said, he ran away without waiting for Meng Zitao¡¯s reply.

    ¡°Where did this come from, your cousin?¡± Meng Zitao asked with a smile.

    "He's my cousin in San Francisco, USA. He's been passed down from three generations in the family, so he's not good at it."

    Zhong Jinxian briefly talked about some things about his cousin, and then turned the topic to the painting on the table: "How did you see the problem with this painting?"

    "You also think I lied to you."

    Meng Zitao smiled and shook his head. When he was talking just now, he looked at the painting for a while, and then asked: "This painting should be a high imitation printing, right?"

    "Awesome!" Zhong Jinxian praised.

    "It's not that great. It's not difficult for experienced people to identify the authenticity of this kind of painting."

    Meng Zitao said: "First of all, if it is not framed, there is a clear difference between the paper quality of the original and the imitation. High imitations use imitation rice paper, which is easy to touch. It has a film on the back and feels smooth. Rice paper does not have this  Feeling. Of course, this method is not applicable when the painting and calligraphy are framed. You can only see one side, and it is impossible to tear the painting apart to see the back. However, if you are experienced, you can still see the problem with the paper. "

    "Also, when you hold 1??Speaking of robots, people often think that they are the product of contemporary Western technology.  As everyone knows, the fantasy and pursuit of human-like machines has a history of thousands of years, and its earliest birthplace was probably our country. However, at that time, they were usually called "dolls", "wooden people" or "puppets"  .  It can be described as an ancient "robot".

    For example, "Liezi Tang Wen Pian" records a story: As far back as three thousand years ago in the Western Zhou Dynasty, a craftsman named Yanshi presented a doll to King Mu of Zhou.  At first King Mu thought he was Yanshi's follower and didn't take it seriously.  After learning that it was made of wood by Master Yan, he was very surprised and called his beloved concubine to watch it together.

    I saw that the puppet moved forward, backward, leaned forward, and leaned back. The movements were exactly the same as those of a real person. If you move your chin, you can sing gracefully; if you move your arms, you can sway and dance.  After the performance, the puppet even winked at the king's favorite concubine.  This throw made King Zhou Mu furious. He believed that the puppet in front of him must be a real person and wanted to execute Yanshi on the spot.

    Master Yan suddenly came to his senses and immediately stepped forward to take apart the puppet and show it to King Zhou Mu.  After careful "examination", King Zhou Mu discovered that it was just a pile of "dead objects" composed of wood and leather, coated with glue and paint, and Yanshi escaped a fatal disaster.

    Some people may say that this is just a fabricated story and cannot be true. However, there are many wonders in the world. Who can be sure whether it is true or false?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
