Chapter 470 What a Good Match

"Guests, friends, ladies and gentlemen, hello, everyone, welcome to the spring auction held by our Nostalgic Art Auction Company today..." Gao Mingde stood on the stage and presided over the auction.

A qualified auction host, in addition to having rich knowledge of antiques and a certain network of contacts, must also have rich on-the-spot experience and adaptability, and be able to handle emergencies well, and in the whole nostalgia, only Gao Mingde can handle this great task, even Ye Jin might not be able to.

Especially for a super-large-scale auction like today, more than 500 people were squeezed into the venue that can accommodate 800 people, and it was dark and overwhelming, not including the reporters standing in the last row with long guns and short cannons , so this is definitely a rare big scene in the entire auction circle.

And as the creator of all this, Li Dacheng is already sitting firmly in the front row at this time, pressing the field!

As the owner of Nostalgic Art Auction Company, Li Dacheng is definitely a newcomer in the industry. Although Forbes has united with many auction houses to claim to block him, when he sat down, many people still offered money to greet him. , People I know and people I don’t know, all of them are polite, with a smile on their faces, those who leave a phone call, and those who put a business card in their business cards. There are museum curators, experienced collectors, and business owners. , in fact, Li Dacheng is very clear in his heart that the reason why these people are like this is entirely for ordering antiques, because for those who are eager for rare antiques, they have no resistance when faced with ordering antiques .

Qian Dafu, aren't you going to block me?Seeing today's situation, I don't know what you will think, do you have to find a piece of tofu and smash your head to death?Li Dacheng thought in his heart, how much he hoped that Qian Dafu would appear.

"I believe that everyone here has been waiting for a long time, so I won't talk nonsense. The Nostalgic Spring Auction is now officially started. Let's take a look at the first lot first..." After a short warm-up session, Gao Mingde began Entering the theme, "The first item in the auction is a custom-made antique. I believe everyone already knows about the twenty custom-made antiques very well. Because of its appearance, the researchers of the Beijing Museum couldn't sit still, it is Castiglione's portrait of Emperor Qianlong!"

boom!
As soon as Gao Mingde's voice fell, the scene seemed like a pot had been smashed, and the crowd was full of voices, as if the whole roof was going to be lifted.

The first lot turned out to be Castiglione's portrait of Emperor Qianlong?

This was unexpected by everyone present.

You know, each of the [-] custom-made antiques is a treasure among treasures, and such treasures are usually placed at the end for the finale, but who would have thought that the first auction today would be This treasure that countless people have dreamed of, is it too sudden?Not warmed up yet, not ready yet.

In fact, Li Dacheng deliberately arranged this way, because he knew that the auction started too early, everyone must still be sleepy, and the best way to wake up these people is to give them a strong dose of medicine. This portrait of Emperor Qianlong is undoubtedly It's a strong medicine.

Preparation time?No!
warm up?nor!

Come up and play with you for real.

Li Dacheng turned his head slightly, and glanced at the meeting place behind him. Sure enough, many people who were dozing off at the scene were all awake at this moment. They sat upright, rubbed their eyes, wiped their glasses, The look of being ready.

Are you all awake?
"Snapped!"

A picture suddenly flashed on the big screen on the stage. Gao Mingde pointed at it and said, "The one that appeared on the picture is Castiglione's portrait of Emperor Qianlong. I believe everyone here is very familiar with this rare treasure..." In addition to the portrait on the screen, there are detailed introductions beside it, such as the introduction of the author, the introduction of the people in the painting, and the introduction of the whole painting. Gao Mingde read it quickly according to what was displayed on the screen, without further Because the 3000 pieces of custom-made antiques have already been published on the Internet, they have appeared in newspapers, and they appeared in the preview a month ago, everyone should be familiar with them, and experts from the Beijing Museum also posted on Weibo After a detailed explanation, those who pay attention will naturally understand it, and those who don't pay attention will not come here today, so after a brief explanation, the price was finally announced, "The base price is [-] million, and the price will be increased by [-] yuan each time. Ten thousand!"

3000?
Everyone gasped. Antiques with a reserve price of 3000 million yuan are rare in the market, and even the final transaction prices of many antiques did not reach this figure. However, after being surprised, when people calmed down, At that time, I felt that this price was reasonable, because as far as the painting itself is concerned, the reserve price of 3000 million is not high. You must know that before the auction started, this was a lot that was predicted to exceed [-] million by the outside world. ah.

Not high, really not high.

After a short period of calm, someone finally raised the sign in his hand.

"No. 410 No. [-], [-] million." Gao Mingde said loudly, as if he wanted to use his voice to wake up everyone who was still immersed in the painting.

This was indeed the case. After hearing Gao Mingde's voice, there was an immediate commotion at the scene, one after another, one after another, people holding signs.

"Thirty-five million."

"Thirty-five million."

"..."

"4000 two million..."

"Fifty three million..."

"Seventy-three million..."

Hearing the quotations, everyone at the scene was moved. The bidding speed exceeded everyone's imagination. It can be described as soaring. Although everyone knows the value of this painting, it should be gradually increased in a step-by-step manner. It's right to go up, but now, it's like flying up in a helicopter.

It’s amazing!

Many of those who participated in the bidding to buy the painting did not realize that the price had risen to 8000 million, and it was still soaring.

Now that the bidding is here, it is no longer as chaotic as it was before. Some lucky people have stopped bidding and have been eliminated, and the rest are the ones who really have the strength to bid for this rare treasure. Although these people There are not many, but the bidding is more intense than before, because everyone knows that this is the last moment, every bidding, every promotion, each other will earn each other's life and death, this is the moment to see the truth!

"Ninety-one million."

"Ninety-one million."

At this moment, everyone held their breath, because everyone knew that the [-] million mark was about to break through!

"One hundred million!"

With a deep voice, Castiglione's portrait of Emperor Qianlong finally broke through 10 million, and it only took less than [-] minutes.

[-] million, the first lot exceeded [-] million, which has never happened in the history of domestic auctions.

Unknowingly, Huaigu has created a record in today's spring auction.

It's just that the door of [-] million didn't last long before it was pushed open by someone, and it wasn't just one person.

"100 million..."

"500 million..."

Plaque, placard, placard!

Bid, bid, bid!

1000 million... 2000 million... 3000 million...

One hundred and ten million!

"6000 million! The gentleman on the 36th bid 6000 million. Does anyone offer a higher price?" Gao Mingde said excitedly, his voice trembling violently, and his voice became slightly hoarse due to the shouting. But it is even more shocking, "6000 million for the first time, 6000 million for the second time..." Gao Mingde glanced at the scene that finally calmed down, and dropped the hammer fiercely, "6000 million for the third time Congratulations to Mr. No. 36, who won the auction of Castiglione's portrait of Emperor Qianlong at RMB 6000 million. Let's congratulate this gentleman with warm applause!"

wow wow wow...

Applause, tide-like applause sounded in the venue, not only for the person who bought this treasure with a sky-high price of 6000 million, but also for nostalgia, for today's auction, and for the entire antique Circled.

Because this is not only the victory of Mr. No. 36 alone, but also the victory of nostalgia, and the victory of the entire antique circle. To a certain extent, it has blown another gust of wind in the antique circle that has been in a low ebb since last year, and once again set off a frenzy for antiques. .

Those present are all people in the antique circle. As a person in the circle, there is no one who does not want this industry to continue to prosper. Only when the industry prospers will the people engaged in this industry prosper.

Therefore, this is not a simple auction of antiques. It made everyone present see hope, and this is the real meaning of applause.

The applause lasted for half a minute before it stopped. Everyone's faces were no longer sleepy. On the contrary, they opened their eyes wide, with excited smiles on their faces.

"Now, let's start the auction of the second lot." Gao Mingde said, "The second lot is a celestial bottle..."

The Tianqiu vase is one of the 46 lots, and it is not among the [-] custom-made antiques. It has received much less attention than the previous portrait of Emperor Qianlong, but it is still a rare item on the market. There are definitely many people who are interested in it. After all, most people can only take a look at rare treasures like Castiglione's portrait of Emperor Qianlong, but antiques like the Tianqiu Vase have a real chance of being in their pockets.

"The base price is 100 million, and the price will increase by [-] each time."

"One million and fifty thousand."

"110 million..."

The number of people holding placards at the scene was no less than that of those who participated in the auction of Emperor Qianlong's portrait before, and the enthusiasm of the people has not weakened in the slightest.

Backstage.

Liu Rumeng stood there blankly, she hadn't recovered from the previous auction.

6000 million?A painting is worth 6000 million?

For her, this is simply an astronomical figure, and she dare not even think about it.

Before that, although she participated in the auction, the final transaction price of the lot was only tens of millions, but today's painting refreshed her understanding of antiques.If there is still a chance for her to earn tens of millions, then 6000 million is simply a dream for her, an unattainable dream.

The most important thing is that she has seen this painting at home, that is to say, the painting that was photographed with 6000 million just now should belong to Li Dacheng.

Is this the man's world?Hundreds of millions?
In the past, I only knew that Li Dacheng was rich, such as luxury houses, luxury cars, and antiques, but he never expected to be so rich.Thinking of this, Liu Rumeng showed a wry smile on her face. She was struggling to be worthy of the other party, but now it seems that she has no chance to surpass the other party, even if she is equal, she can't do it. All in vain?Is it true that you are not good enough for the other party?
Liu Rumeng saw Ye Jin suddenly within sight. She had heard Li Dacheng tell the other party's details, so she also knew that the other party was a young lady who was born in a wealthy family. Because of this, she had always had a crisis in her heart before. Especially when she knew that Li Dacheng was working with the other party, the sense of crisis became more intense. It was also from then on that she tried hard to be worthy of Li Dacheng, but now it seems that, It seems to have no effect, they seem to be a match made in heaven.

When efforts become useless, there will be a kind of despair in people's hearts.

"Miss Ye..." Liu Rumeng called Ye Jin unconsciously.

"Miss Liu, what's the matter?" Ye Jin shifted his gaze from the auction outside to Liu Rumeng's face beside him, and happened to meet the other party's complicated gaze. Ye Jin trembled when he saw it, and that gaze contained Doubt, worry, anxiety, uneasiness, loss and many other negative factors made Ye Jin feel puzzled when he saw it.

what happened?
Why was it fine before, but suddenly it seems like a different person, as if I have suffered some kind of spiritual and spiritual blow and destruction...

"Oh, no, it's nothing." Liu Rumeng's whole body trembled, and the flying soul returned to her body. When she looked at Ye Jin, she forced a smile and asked, "I just want to ask, Is that painting really worth that much? I can't believe that someone would pay that much for a painting."

"The final transaction price of 6000 million was indeed beyond the expectations of most of us. We initially predicted that the price would be around 2000 million. The reason why we were able to fetch such a high price probably had to do with the atmosphere and competition at the scene. It has a lot to do with the intensity." Ye Jin said with a smile, "As for whether this painting is worth 6000 million or not, I really don't know. The value of antiques is inherently erratic, especially those It is really impossible to judge something that is unique or different, so for this question, it depends on what the person who took the photo of this antique thinks. If he thinks it is worth it, then this painting is worth it. After all, the market It is the best standard for testing an antique."

Liu Rumeng nodded half-understood, and looked at Ye Jin with even more different eyes. Born into a wealthy family and able to help Dacheng, what a perfect couple.
