184 Crushing
Although Xiao Yao's words were very modest, they revealed a strong self-confidence, Lin Yuxuan became very interested in him, and said: "The next time we meet, it is best to bring a piece of your work, I have a strong intuition, your level should not be bad." ”
"In order not to disappoint you, the next time I come to the door, I must choose a piece that I am most satisfied with. "Xiao Yao is very confident in his painting level, and there is no need to be too modest.
When a few people spoke, Cheng Yu's painting had already broken the million yuan mark.
Xiao Yao said: "It seems that among the guests present, there are really a lot of people who know the goods. Miss Cheng shows a strong personal character in this painting, which perfectly combines the 'shape' of Western oil painting with the 'meaning' of Chinese painting, and the price of this painting exceeds 1 million yuan, which is not unusual at all. Besides, Miss Cheng is still very young, and there is still a long way to go in the future, from the perspective of collecting, any collector with a little vision will be interested in this painting. ”
"Since you are so optimistic about this painting of Yuyu, why don't you hold up a sign?" Lin Yuxuan asked.
"This painting, I personally like it very much, I will definitely shoot it, it is not yet the time, I guess it is too early to get the result, I am a person who prefers to make a final decision, there is no need to deprive everyone of the fun of bidding. Xiao Yao took the opportunity to show his attitude.
Seeing Xiao Yao and Cheng Yu chatting so speculatively, Zeng Kai felt very uncomfortable, but unfortunately he didn't understand oil painting, Xiao Yao was too professional to interject.
Now when it comes to the final ownership of this painting, he can finally interject, "The Lady in Red" is my sister's most representative painting so far, there are many people who like this painting, but it is not just a cat or dog can be photographed, before the dust settles, some people should not talk big." ”
In order to show his closeness to Cheng Yu, Zeng Kai forgot Cheng Yu's warning to the back of his mind.
Cheng Yu had to warn again with a cold expression, "Mr. Zeng, if you call me like this, it will make others misunderstand, and I am not used to it, so please call me by my name directly in the future." ”
was slapped in the face by Cheng Yu in front of Xiao Yao, Zeng Kai couldn't get off the stage a little, and said: "I don't mean anything else, I just call it that involuntarily, I will pay attention to it in the future." ”
As a bystander, He Yasheng felt that Zeng Kai and Xiao Yao were more interesting than the fierce bidding on the field, and with his experience, there should be a big drama to watch later.
I didn't let him wait too long, and the good show came quickly.
Cheng Yu is the first beauty among the celebrities in Kyoto, and there are too many young talents who want to be attentive to her.
The live auction of her paintings, even if they are mediocre, will definitely fetch a high price, not to mention that it is a masterpiece that won the gold medal of this year's Young Painter, and the price is naturally soaring rapidly.
Under the fierce competition of many people, after the price broke through 1 million, it broke through 2 million again.
At this time, there were still three people on the field who were still holding cards.
Zeng Kai didn't have the patience to continue waiting, after the price broke through 2 million, he increased the price by 1 million at a time, and directly bid 3 million.
The price of 3 million has far exceeded the market price of this painting, although this price is not high among the items auctioned today, but the attention is among the top few.
Cheng Yu has already attracted much attention, and now there are so many young talents who have broken her head, and the guests at the scene have all saved their minds to watch a good show.
Zeng Kai's domineering increase of 1 million at a time did not suppress the other two opponents, and one of them did not hesitate at all, so he raised his card again and directly bid for 4 million.
"5 million!" Zeng Kai did not show weakness, and increased the price by 1 million at a time, showing his domineering.
After the price broke through 8 million, the other person gave up the competition, and there were only two people left on the field.
Obviously, such a high price is not because of the artistry of the painting, but because of Cheng Yu as a person.
If it is at a formal auction, Cheng Yu definitely does not want to have such a false reputation, for a young painter with Bai Fumei, she values the artistry of her works, not false fame.
But today is a charity auction, and the ultimate goal is to raise money for charity, no matter what the reason, Cheng Yu is not disgusted by being able to raise a little more money for charity.
The young talent who competed with Zeng Kai was also a rich second generation, and his family was not short of money, until the price exceeded 10 million, knowing that he had no hope of competition, he had to give up and continue to raise cards.
"10 million for the first time!" A painting by a contemporary young painter was auctioned for tens of millions of dollars, and Tang Qiyao's tone was very excited.
"10 million for the second time!"
Xiao Yao had already stated in advance that he would take pictures of Cheng Yu's work, so naturally he would not break his promise, and shouted with a sign: "20 million!"
In an instant, the entire venue was silent.
This price is really domineering!
Although there are many rich people among the guests at the scene, there are really few who casually throw out 10 million.
Zeng Kai had already guessed that Xiao Yao would definitely compete with him, but he didn't expect Xiao Yao to bid so hard, and he increased the price by 10 million at one time.
Although he is rich and is one of the top richest people in Kyoto, he usually spends money lavishly, but he just throws out 10 million, and he really doesn't have the courage.
Zeng Kai swallowed his saliva, looked at Xiao Yao's gaze, and almost burst into flames.
Xiao Yao did not shy away from meeting his gaze, and did not hide his contempt.
Zeng Kai is a person who wants to save face, the contradiction between him and Xiao Yao, these guests sitting at the No. 1 table are all in their eyes, he can't afford to lose this person, so he can only stubbornly continue to raise the card and ask for the price, "22 million!"
Zeng Kai also wanted to directly increase the price by 10 million, but he didn't have the courage, his pocket money was limited, and he threw out 20 million for nothing, which already made his heart bleed.
"30 million!" Xiao Yao didn't even hesitate at all, and once again quoted a price that shocked everyone.
Zeng Kai's right hand holding the card seemed to be a thousand pounds, and he wanted to raise the card to continue bidding, but Xiao Yao's momentum had crushed him, and he knew very well in his heart that even if he raised the price again, it was likely to be in vain.
In case Xiao Yao doesn't continue to raise his cards after he raises the price, then he will have to bear the consequences of throwing 30 million for nothing.
Don't say that he doesn't have so much pocket money, even if he can come up with so much money, he can't bear it.
After all, he is only a second generation, and he is not extravagant enough to take 30 million improper money.
"30 million for the first time. Tang Qiyao was like being beaten with chicken blood, her expression and tone were very excited.
Zeng Kai did not continue to raise the card.
Tang Qiyao waited for a moment, and shouted again: "30 million for the second time!"
