Chapter 791 Opening a Private Museum
Chu Chen shook his head with a smile. If this old Fei hadn't been with his master, this matter might have passed away. Since the reality is not a coincidence, it can only be regarded as Liu Sizhe's bad luck.

"By the way, Brother Chen, where did you get this guqin?" Liu Sizhe asked curiously.

"It was given by someone else."

"Sent?!"

Liu Sizhe was stunned by Chu Chen's answer.When the others heard this, they stopped arguing and looked at Chu Chen in disbelief.

"That's what happened..." Chu Chen smiled and briefly explained what happened, and then everyone realized that there was a layer of cover-up paint on the surface of this piano.

Liu Sizhe suddenly said: "That's right, I thought the person who gave it was so generous that he would give you such a good thing directly."

"That person is not a fool who doesn't know how to do it!"

Chu Chen said something with a smile, and then asked Mr. Liu, "Master, did you get any results from your discussions?"

Mr. Liu shook his head with a smile: "This matter is what the public says is right, and what the woman says is right. It's really not that easy to get a result from a short-term discussion."

Liu Sizhe asked with some disappointment: "Is there no way to confirm the authenticity of this piano as soon as possible?"

"The identification of a guqin is very complicated, and there is no hard evidence. It is difficult to determine the age and authenticity of a guqin in terms of broken grain, style and material, so it is necessary to judge all kinds of characteristics without comprehensiveness Roughly accurate."

At this moment, Old Fei changed his mind and said, "However, I do have a way to prove whether this qin is really a zither or not."

"What way?" Liu Sizhe asked hastily. Except for Chu Chen and Wu Ke, and Mr. Liu and Mr. Qian who had thoughtful faces, everyone else also looked at Mr. Fei intently, wanting to hear what Mr. Fei said. What can be done.

"Sound color!" Fei Lao gave the answer concisely.

In an instant, Uncle Wu and the others were stunned. Just like what Chu Chen told Wu Ke before, the sound quality of Guqin in different eras is not the same, let alone the Liangliangqin among the four Guqins.

After all, it can be called the Four Great Guqins. If it is not a really good piano, then people will not pass it on. Since the Liangliangqin is called this name, even if its sound quality is not as good as the real reverberation around the beam, everyone thinks that it should be almost the same.

Judging from this point, if you want to verify its authenticity, you only need to repair the Guqin and play it.

If this guqin is repaired and the sound quality is very ordinary, then even if it is a guqin over a thousand years old, its value is not high, but if the sound quality of this guqin does not reach the level of the beam, it is still remarkable So even if this guqin is an imitation guqin, its value cannot be lowered.

Mr. Liu said with a smile: "It seems that I have to leave this matter to you!"

Fei Lao jokingly said: "I can't wait for this kind of thing, but Liu Lao, you have to ask the Guqin owner's opinion, what if Xiao Chu is worried and won't let me repair it?"

"Hey! Look at my memory!"

At first, Mr. Liu was a little surprised why Mr. Fei would say that, but after a while, he remembered what it was for. He shook his head with a smile, and then said to Chu Chen, "Ah Chen, let me introduce you. Take a look at the guqin restoration master in front of you..."

It turned out that this old man called Fei Lao by Liu Sizhe was one of the most capable people in the field of guqin restoration in China. He was a famous teacher and devoted himself to research for dozens of years. .

It can be said that Fei Lao is outstanding both in terms of Guqin restoration skills and experience.

After Mr. Liu's introduction, Chu Chen quickly said, "Mr. Fei, why don't you rest assured that my piano will be repaired by a master like you?"

"Don't rush to agree!" Fei Lao smiled and waved his hand: "I can help you repair this piano, and it's also free..."

Hearing this, Chu Chen quickly said: "Old Fei, I'm really embarrassed to ask you to fix it if you say so!"

Mr. Fei chuckled and said, "Xiao Chu, you should have heard an old saying that being courteous for nothing is either rape or robbery. Of course, I want to ask you for something by doing this."

"Mr. Fei, if there is anything you need, just tell me. I will help if I can!" Chu Chen agreed without hesitation.

Fei Lao explained: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I opened a private museum with the theme of guqin, and it will open in just over a month. But there is one thing I am ashamed of. Over the years, although I have collected many guqin , but there is only one treasure of the town hall."

"The current private museums are not easy to open. Not only must there be attractive collections, but also a certain reputation. I am quite confident in my collections, but with my one The treasure of the museum can't make any name for a while. Therefore, I came here today to ask Mr. Liu for help."

Hearing this, Chu Chen understood what Fei Lao wanted to ask him, and said, "Fei Lao, do you want my violin to show your face at the opening ceremony of your museum?"

Mr. Fei smiled a little embarrassedly, and said: "Xiao Chu, I also know that my request is a little too much, but don't worry, I will definitely explain the owner of the guqin to everyone. Of course, repairing such a guqin , it is entirely my honor, if you don't want to, I will also restore this guqin."

The reason why Fei Lao is embarrassed is simple. You must know that if this guqin is indeed the one of the four major guqins, then it goes without saying that the appearance in Fei Lao’s private museum will cause a sensation. At that time, telling the owner of the guqin straightforwardly would undoubtedly have a huge publicity effect on Fei Lao's museum.

Of course, all this is based on the premise that the guqin in front of me is indeed a qin. If it is an imitation, the effect will not be so good, and if it is an imitation with ordinary sound quality, Fei Lao will definitely not make the guqin At the opening of his museum.

Although everyone knows this kind of thing well, they will not say it out. After all, if you tell the matter too thoroughly, it will hurt your feelings somewhat.

Chu Chen doesn't mind what Lao Fei said. For one thing, even if he wants to open a museum in the future, because the collection is rich, and many of them are national first-class cultural relics, even if one of these cultural relics is taken out, it is very likely It caused a sensation in the antique world across the country, and there would never be such a problem as Fei Lao.

In addition, Chu Chen still agrees with the saying that suffering a loss means taking advantage of it. He believes that if he lends Guqin to Fei Lao for publicity, Fei Lao will definitely not treat him badly in the future.

Of course, Chu Chen agrees to suffer losses within a certain range. If someone regards Chu Chen as a fool, then he will definitely make the other party pay the corresponding price.

After hearing what Mr. Fei said, Chu Chen smiled and said, "Mr. Fei, this is just a trivial matter. I will definitely agree to it, but when the day of the opening comes, you should always let me know. I still want to go there." Appreciate your collection for many years!"

Seeing that Chu Chen agreed, Mr. Fei's face was filled with joy, and he agreed straight away: "Xiao Chu, I have to satisfy you no matter what. I invite you all to go with me when the time comes!"

As for the words of thanks, he didn't say much. Youdao is a great kindness without words of thanks. For some things, doing is more important than saying.

Everyone smiled and nodded, expressing that they must go to congratulate at that time.

After a while, Chu Chen said, "Old Fei, I want to ask you something."

"You said."

Chu Chen said: "That's right. I also want to open a private museum, but I don't know how to deal with it. So I want to ask you, who has been here, what are the requirements for opening a private museum."

Mr. Fei was surprised at the beginning when Chu Chen said that he wanted to open a private museum, but he immediately realized that he saw hundreds of pieces in Chu Chen’s collection today, and he couldn’t find even a single piece of ordinary stuff. It made him stunned when he saw it.

Based on the richness of Chu Chen's collection, it would certainly not be a problem to open a private museum.

However, there is another thing that surprised Mr. Fei. It is too simple to open a private museum based on the strength of the Chu Chen family. Got a museum permit.

However, judging from Chu Chen's current performance, he should not have used the privilege.Although this made Lao Fei feel strange, Chu Chen's behavior also made him feel very appreciated.

"Xiao Chu, since you have so many collections, it is indeed a good thing for the country and the people to open a private museum for people to visit. To be honest, if it is not because I want to make Guqin flourish again, at my age, It is also impossible to open any private museum.”

At this point, Fei Lao smiled and said: "Okay, let's get down to business, Xiao Chu, are you going to open the museum in the capital?"

"Yes!" Chu Chen nodded.

"Then let me briefly explain some requirements to you..." Next, Lao Fei briefly introduced the requirements for opening a private museum to Chu Chen.

Speaking of which, judging from the Beijing Museum Regulations, there are not many requirements for opening a private museum in the capital, only six points.
