18 million auction relics
A cultural relic called the Painting of Ten Chants was finally auctioned for 18 million. This painting was painted by Zhang Xian, a painter of the Northern Song Dynasty. It was originally an item of Pu Yi, but it was later circulated among the people and was held by an old man. The old man wanted to sell the painting because of his family's financial needs. He first went to the Cultural Relics Bureau, and the Cultural Relics Bureau offered 10,000 yuan. The price gap with the old man's 8 million yuan was too big, and the negotiation broke down. After that, the Cultural Relics Bureau proposed an auction. At the auction, collectors and museum participated in the bidding. In the end, the Palace Museum in Beijing bought it for 18 million yuan. This price reflected the market value and historical and cultural value of the Ten Chants Painting. Read more exciting novels for free

The auction of cultural relics and art fell in volume and price

For example, in the first half of 2012, the national auction business statistics report showed that after several years of rapid growth, the auction of cultural relics and art began to decline significantly since the autumn auction in 2011. In the first half of 2012, it reached 9.24 billion yuan, only 67.4% of the first half of 2011. In 2020, the research of the Archean Art Market Monitor Center showed that due to the influence of domestic and foreign political and economic environments and industry development and changes, it was predicted that the total transaction volume of China's regional auction market in the first half of 2020 would be about 39,536 pieces, a decrease of about 47.68% compared with the same period in 2019; The total auction volume in China in the first half of 2020 was about 13.108 billion yuan, a decrease of 39.92% compared with the first half of 2019. In 2022, affected by the objective environment, the turnover of 206 enterprises carrying out cultural relics and art auctions nationwide dropped to 16.465 billion yuan (excluding buyer's commission), the lowest since 2009. The turnover of major auction categories such as China calligraphy and painting, porcelain and jade miscellaneous items, oil painting and contemporary art, ancient books and inscriptions, etc. fell sharply, among which oil painting and contemporary art fell by 58.75%, and stamp coins fell by 33.06%.

The show smashed 200 million cultural relics
In the program " The World's Collection," a doctor named Fu Changyong brought a pair of sweet white glazed hand mugs to participate in the program. This pair of hand mugs was said to be a gift from a patient. The experts in the show identified the cup as a fake. According to the rules of the show, if the collection was identified as a fake, the host, Wang Gang, would smash it with a hammer. Hence, Wang Gang smashed the opponent's cup. However, Fu Changyong later found another appraisal agency to appraise it. The results showed that the cup was authentic and worth 200 million yuan. Therefore, he sued Wang Gang and the program team in court. However, Fu Changyong lost the lawsuit because he had signed an agreement before the show started. The agreement stated that once the treasure was identified as a fake, it would be smashed and the production team would not be responsible. Although Fu Changyong appealed until July 2016, the final verdict still upheld the original sentence. However, this incident attracted widespread public attention and caused the program to be suspended. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Lost 10 million cultural relics overseas
According to the incomplete statistics of the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization, among the 218 museum collections in 47 countries around the world, China lost 1.67 million pieces of overseas cultural relics, and the number of Chinese cultural relics lost overseas was 10 times that of the collections. There was no definite indication that 10 million cultural relics had been lost overseas. The number of cultural relics that had been successfully returned only accounted for 0.8% of the total number of cultural relics lost overseas. There were three main channels for the loss of Chinese cultural relics overseas: one was that the imperialist powers snatched them from China after the Opium War; the second was that some foreigners who came to China stole them from China; and the third was that foreigners colluded with the rebellious warlords and profiteers at that time to buy them at extremely low prices and smuggle them out of the country. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Found cultural relics worth 8 million
If a cultural relic worth 8 million yuan was found, the following correct methods should be followed: First of all, in China, cultural relics belonged to the state. They could not possess, hide, or resell them. They should contact the local cultural relics management department in time, such as the Cultural Relics Bureau, museum and other relevant institutions, to inform them of the specific situation of the cultural relics found, including the location of the discovery, the general characteristics of the cultural relics, etc. These departments had professionals who could identify, protect, and properly handle cultural relics. Privately handling cultural relics may violate laws and regulations, and voluntarily handing over cultural relics is a positive contribution to the protection of national cultural heritage. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Reselling cultural relics worth 500 million
