"Magic City" is another name for Shanghai, but also accurately summarizes the intricate world of Shanghai, a city of thousands of customs。

　　Shanghai is also a city that writers are willing to ink, and the Shanghai they describe is the same city, but often has different faces。

　　Eileen Chang's Shanghai is bleak in its magnificence。Old houses with European appeal, dance halls, fur shops, the Bund, and men and women in love, in her pen, transformed into ups and downs of happiness and glitz after the vicissitudes of life。

　　Mu Xin, a writer who is not a Shanghai native, has written a "Ode to Shanghai", which is full of six chapters and describes everything in Shanghai。In the tone of ridicule, I can't help but show my love and admiration for the exquisite and vibrant Shanghai。

　　In Wang Anyi's novels, you can see the "lane culture" of old Shanghai。The "old Kler" with self-cultivation wore a white shirt and a Western-style sheep sweater, the collar of the shirt must not be turned over outside the sweater, and the shirt must be buttoned to the end。After they are fully dressed in this way, they will sit on rattan chairs and read newspapers, or go to the vegetable market to buy a green vegetable or a small piece of lean meat, or go to the Huangpu River to find old friends to drink a cup of afternoon tea。The Shanghai in her works is rigorous and serious, but also has a relaxed mood。

　　Chen Danyan wrote a biography of Shanghai with several books such as "The Wind, Flowers and Snow in Shanghai" and "The Golden branches and jade Leaves in Shanghai"。The Shanghai under her pen is always sentimental and nostalgic, those old buildings, old objects, "old Shanghai", mark the bustling and elegant meaningful city once。

　　In Guo Jingming's "Tiny Times", we see another Shanghai: it is fashionable and noisy, but also has hidden deep warmth, it is a dream, but sometimes lonely and confused。

　　If you had a pen, how would you describe the city of Shanghai？

　　For China Art and, the Shanghai in our memory is the dazzling "I Art and" on the big screen of Chine on May 18 last year, the elegant manners and serious expressions of Shanghai collectors in every collection, and the wisdom, rationality and enthusiasm of Shanghai buyers in every auction...

　　These few words are far enough to describe our feelings for Shanghai。From August 17th to 18th, the global public collection of China Art and 2019 Autumn Auction will enter Shanghai and continue the leading edge。The scope of the collection includes Chinese calligraphy and painting, 20th century and contemporary art, porcelain and antiques, classical furniture and crafts, ancient books and rare books, stamp coins, jewelry and watches and other major categories。We sincerely look forward to the visit of Shanghai collectors friends, with us to dine art treasures, and write art stories。
