Lin Su, a restorer of ancient books and cultural relics hidden in the market, can understand every murmur that time has left on the artifacts. A pair of skillful hands can bring new life to nearly decayed fragments; a pair of discerning eyes can see through the secrets behind all disguises and fakes.
Due to an unexpected change, he stepped from the silent restoration room to the noisy and flashy live treasure appraisal program under the spotlight.
Here, "experts" who claim to be authoritative tell false stories, and collectors driven by profit are confusing the truth with the truth.
Everyone thought that this taciturn young man was just a backdrop to make up the numbers.
However, when Lin Su spoke, the whole world fell silent.
"This so-called authentic work by a famous artist from the Tang Dynasty has a method of connecting paper fibers that did not appear until the late Song Dynasty."
"The patina on the surface of this bronze statue, which is known as a thousand-year-old Buddha, is the real precipitation of time caused by chemical rapid process. It smells of a mixture of sandalwood, dust and time, not the pungent smell of copper sulfate."
"You call this a fake? There is a lost history hidden under its broken strings..."
From restoring cultural relics to appraising treasures, from cultural inheritance to business empire.
When knowledge becomes the sharpest weapon, Lin Su single-handedly cleans up the turbulence of the industry, takes charge of Wenhua, and makes real treasures reappear in the world.
