另一方面,Tiger Shark 平台也注意到了这位主播.
当时已是深夜,员工们已经下班了.
市场部主任王玲正坐在沙发上,拿出手机亲自给林萧私信.
但林萧并不在线,她的信息似乎像一块石头沉在海里,没有回复.
所以,她设置了一个闹钟,打算第二天一早起床,等待他的回复.
...
第二天早上.
上午 9 点 30 分,林萧乘坐出租车到达了福子庙旧货市场.
当他走向古色古香的街道时,他打开了他的直播.
"大家早上好!"
"林老板直播了!"
"林老板,你现在出名了!"
"什么?!直播后几分钟就有超过 100,000 名观众?
"这就是奉献精神.如果我今天赚了数百万美元,我就会在俱乐部享受按摩,而不是直播!
经过一整天的造势,林萧的人气一飞冲天.
直播开始还不到五分钟,观众人数已经飙升至 50 万以上,令人震惊.
许多前来查看他的主播都羡慕地盯着数据,眼眶几乎燃烧起来.
"这是彩带吗?我来对地方了吗?
"主播,让我们看看你的技能!"
"如果你今天能找到宝藏,我就给你买一张机票!"
"林老板身价百万,你觉得他需要机票吗?"
"快点,我们等不及了!"
网友们热切地催促他继续.
林萧笑着走进了古色古香的小街.他注意到今天街上的人肯定比昨天多.
虽然只是早上 9 点 30 分,但街上已经挤满了人,这种场景通常是在周末才出现的.
他觉得自己寻宝的消息传开了,吸引了不少人.
果然,他的猜测是对的.他花几千块钱买来的古董,价值近七百万,不仅在网上炸开了锅,也点燃了南京的古董界.
许多专业的寻宝者都提前到达了.
然而,他们都知道,林萧不仅仅是运气好;他的能力是真实的.
以那份报纸为例——除非有人专门研究古董报纸,否则即使是评估专家也不会认识到它的价值.
毕竟,每个领域都有自己的专业知识.
寻宝也是如此.
有的人擅长瓷器,有的人擅长玉器,有的人擅长汉古画,有些人擅长明代钱币.
也许少数人在多个领域都有技能,但没有人是所有形式的文物鉴定的专家.
但林萧可能是.
这就是他的优势.
此外,来自"野外路线"的寻宝者更为常见,虽然专家偶尔会寻找宝藏,但他们并不经常这样做.
平均而言,他们可能每个月都会找到一两次宝藏.
但是林萧呢?他每天都在这儿,寻找宝藏.
"野外路线"的人就是——野外的.以昨天的那三枚元拿头币为例.他们可能发现了一两条线索,但他们永远无法 100% 确定.
Xu Rushan was a classic example. He came from a treasure-hunting background too, but even he could only identify two of the three Yuan Datou coins. The third one? He had never seen it before.
If he'd encountered it, he might not have even bothered to look closely, let alone buy it.
Lin Xiao continued walking and chatting with the netizens.
"Boss Lin, don't just hunt for treasures for yourself. Share some knowledge with us!"
"Yeah, teach us how to make money too!"
"My little stool is ready, waiting for Boss Lin's lecture!"
Lin Xiao smiled and shook his head. "This stuff isn't something you can learn just by listening or talking. You have to practice."
"However, since you want to hear, I'll teach you a few basics."
He stopped walking and pointed to a stall on the right, where there were more than ten porcelain items displayed.
"Do you see these porcelain items? If I tell you that most of them are real, do you think I'm just talking nonsense?"
"All real?"
"Boss Lin, are you kidding?"
"I'm in Nanjing now, I'm coming over. Wait for me, Boss Lin!"
Lin Xiao smiled. "Hold on, let me finish first."
"Out of these ten or so pieces, about seven or eight are real. The one on the left is probably from the Guangxu period, and the one on the upper right, the Yuhu Chun, should be from the Kangxi period."
"The items are indeed real, but real doesn't mean they're valuable."
Lin Xiao continued, "Antiques vary in value. Just because it's an antique doesn't mean it's expensive. That Yuhu Chun might only be worth three to four thousand yuan in the market."
"Three to four thousand? That cheap?"
"My god, this is… so worthless?"
"I always thought antiques were always expensive."
"I thought so too."
Lin Xiao smiled. "The value of porcelain depends on three things: first, the owner; second, the kiln it came from; third, the condition; and lastly, the age."
"For example, if it's a Ming Dynasty blue-and-white dragon vase, the starting price would be at least a million."
"Why? Because the dragon symbolized the emperor in ancient times, and only the emperor could use it. Any dragon pattern was a product of imperial rule, so the price would naturally be high."
"Moreover, imperial items were produced in the finest kilns, the quality far surpassing ordinary porcelain."
"Then, there's the condition. Porcelain meant for the royal court was painted by top-tier artists."
"All these factors combined make it precious."
"But that Yuhu Chun, aside from being from the Kangxi period, what else does it have going for it?"
Lin Xiao shook his head. "There are many antiques on the market, but most of them come from private collections. It's like the bowls we use to eat now or the vases we use for flowers—they cost just a few bucks, right? But after a few hundred years, they become antiques. But even after hundreds of years, they'd be worth only a few thousand or ten thousand. What's really valuable are the items used by the rich. Those things, even now, are worth a fortune, and in a few hundred years, they'd be priceless."
"So, valuable antiques are mostly imperial items."
