"It's a Stradivari violin. ”

"The starting price is $10,000. ”

Almost at the same time, Xie Lang stood up from his seat.

Her gaze was locked on the instrument on the stage in almost disbelief.

"Teacher Xie, what's wrong?"

Du Zigui, who was sitting next to her, said with concern.

Sheron's whole mind was empty, and only the "Stradivarius violin" was left in her mind.

The Stradivari violin is named after its maker, Antonio Stradivari. During his lifetime, this famous violinist created about 1,100 instruments of all kinds, of which only about 600 have survived to this day.

And the violin he made is the most prestigious, and even today, decades later, if any auction house acquires such a violin by some chance, it will undoubtedly attract countless collectors.

Fu Nanxun gradually came back to his senses, and he understood what Xie Lang was shocked.

He reminded him: "Mr. Xie, that's just a prop made by the program team." ”

Just kidding, where did the production team get a real Stradivari to record a variety show?

Xie Lang nodded: "I know." ”

But she still couldn't resist the surging tide of her heart, and her eyes couldn't stop drifting in the direction of the piano.

Before the official bidding began, the auctioneer suddenly called a waiter to come up, and she rearranged the piano in the glass cover, and then the waiter carried the tray and carefully brought the bids for the next round of auction.

"What kind of operation is this?" Du Zigui couldn't help but ask.

Lu Xiu explained: "From this round of auctions, the guests on the second floor began to join the bidding. ”

"Each round of auction items will be sent to the second floor for a spin before the official bidding, so if you are interested, you can take a closer look. ”

Sure enough, as soon as his words fell, he heard two regular knocks on the door from outside the box.

"Please come in. ”

The waiter really took the tray, cautiously half-sidedly lifted the curtain and came in, half-kneeling down to show the auction items in the glass cover to the guests in the box.

Xie Lang took a closer look, but was a little disappointed.

It was not obvious when I looked at the auction table from the second floor from a long distance, but now that I was so close, all the details on the violin were exposed.

This is not even a real piano in the strict sense of the word, but at best a prop.

The varnish on it is very similar to that of a real Stradivari, except that it is not carefully brushed, and the corners are even a little mottled.

Xie Lang took a closer look, and sat back in his seat disappointed.

Although the program team spent a lot of thought, but these details really can't stand up to scrutiny, after such observation, she suddenly lost interest in this rare violin.

The waiter paused several times outside the VIP box on the second floor with a tray in his hand, and it took a while to bring the piano in the glass case back to the auction table.

The auctioneer re-articulate the offer: "The starting price of the ninth lot is $10,000, and the guests on the second floor can participate in the bidding by rattling. ”

"Each rattle represents a $1,000 markup. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to start bidding. ”

The seats in the audience were already boiling, but few of them really raised their cards to bid, and more people not only did not bid, but also buzzed to discuss.

"It's called Si...... I haven't even heard of the name. ”

"The starting price of a violin is 10,000 US dollars, is the Peking Auction House crazy?"

"Something like a Stradivari is priceless, and the price is reasonable starting at $10,000. ”

"Reasonable fart, the auction house is treating us all as wronged. ”

"What kind of wrongdoers are we, the real wrongdoers are sitting in the box upstairs. ”

"A bell rattle is a thousand dollars, that's how many oceans, for such a broken violin, it's not worth it at all......"

"Just kidding, the first few lots didn't sell for $1,000, okay?"

“......”

Who would have thought that as soon as the auctioneer's words fell, the bells rang at the same time in the third and fifth boxes upstairs.

"Eleven thousand dollars. ”

"Ten thousand twelve. ”

The chatter on the private seat gradually subsided, and the guests on the first floor were no longer noisy, they were silent, and watched with bated breath as the bidders in the box fought fairy.

The price had been increased to fifteen thousand, and Lu Xiu turned his gaze to Xie Lang, as if asking for her opinion.

Xie Lang was stunned for a moment, and pointed at himself with one finger: "Me?"

Lu Xiu nodded: "Do you want to shoot?"

She waved her hand again and again: "Mr. Lu, this is a joke." ”

"I just saw this and thought it was fresh, who would buy a painted imitation?"

Xie Lang's emotions have long since calmed down, maybe this violin is indeed the hand of a master for the people in the story, but for her it is just a shoddy prop that cannot be played.

What's more, they came here for a more important purpose.

It's just a story, I don't know why, she always feels that Mr. Lu seems to be too involved in the play.

Lu Xiu nodded, and his gaze fell on the auction table again.

Boxes 3 and 5 are still deadlocked, and prices have been raised to over $20,000.

There was silence in the auction house, only the distinguished guests in the two boxes opposite each other were more real, and you rang the bell back and forth.

"Twenty-two thousand dollars. ”

"Twenty-three thousand dollars. ”

"Twenty-four thousand dollars, box three bid twenty-four thousand dollars, I wonder if this gentleman in box five intends to continue bidding?"

Box 5 shook his hand, indicating that he had given up the competition for the lot.

The auctioneer immediately received his message and began the final bidding.

"$24,000 once, $24,000 twice. ”

"Congratulations to the guest in Box 3 for winning the Stradivari for $24,000. ”

The guests in box No. 3 were led by the waiter and left first.

A sparse burst of applause rang out from the second floor in the auction hall, coming from the fifth box, Lu Xiu glanced at him and did not echo him.

Box 5 slapped itself a few times, begging for self-amusement, and the applause also stopped.

After a small episode, the lights in Box 3 went out.

"Number three, they are ......"

Lu Xiu nodded: "It should be that I got what I wanted, and I have already left the venue in advance." ”

And what they want is yet to come.
