Chapter 235: Shocking China and the World
That night, Howard accompanied York to meet Lin Wen and Shen Shiyi again.
Fifty-five pieces of ancient Chinese treasures: peacock green glazed blue and white porcelain vase, pastel Fushou pattern amphora, pastel lotus eight auspicious pattern pots, blue and white entwined flower amphora hexagonal bottle, pastel Bailuzun, blue and white dragon pattern Tianqiu bottle, Qianlong furnace glazed Cong bottle, bronze color sacrifice ear jar, etc., even a layman like Lin Wen knows at a glance that all of them are high-quality products, all of them are treasures, these things are definitely worth 1.5 billion.
Fifty-five treasures, Lin Wen was ecstatic in his heart, but he didn't show any joy, but handed the list to Shen Shiyi.
Shen Shiyi said with a bland and unhappy look: "Duke of York, I see the sincerity of what you want to exchange. I originally wanted to keep this crown for myself, but for the sake of Earl Howard's friendship, I agreed to exchange it! ”
Shen Shiyi quietly gave Howard a favor, this kind of thing of pushing the boat down the river doesn't cost a penny to do, and it also sells a big favor, I have to say that Shen Shiyi has to follow Lin Wenwen a lot more slippery!
York's heart finally relaxed, and he hastened to contact the delivery of these fifty-five treasures, eager to exchange them immediately so that he could return to China......
The auction went on as scheduled, the original crown was not in the auction brochure, and there was nothing wrong with withdrawing, this was a trick played by Lin Wen, not only did not lose his trust, but also put country Y in, it's always right for me to hype it up, it's you who panicked!
To everyone's surprise, the reserve price of the auction item was the price of the lot, and the price was so high that it was jaw-dropping! The auctioneer seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and at the end of each auction, the auctioneer said: "This treasure is no longer auctioned by the Haoshan Group, and will remain in the auction house for collection!"
What the fuck is going on? It's so awesome after it's been filmed? Keep it for yourself? It's never going to flow out again, and this kind of pressure is very great for everyone present.
There are very few Chinese people who participate in the special auction of foreign treasures, only a few people. Although it is said that art has no borders, but few Chinese people like to collect foreign antiques, Chinese people still think that what their ancestors left behind is the best, which is a kind of cultural inheritance, but also a kind of national spiritual inheritance.
These foreigners who participated in the auction finally understood, where is this auction? Is there an auction with such a high reserve price? The auction house doesn't seem to care whether they can auction off the items at all, as if they are showing off their thingsYes, the auction is still so domineering? Do you like to shoot or not, if you don't shoot, I'll keep it for myself, what the fuck is this auction house? The foreigner began to curse his mother in his stomach, thinking that he had come all the way to pick up the bargain, but he thought that he had come here to bleed!
The fourth piece is a gold ornament with precious stones, and finally there is still a price to begin, which makes him feel distressed, such a small object, although it is gold with two small gems, but the starting price is 2 million Chinese coins!
Although no one bid, it still managed to sell one!
The fifth, a ruby, has a reserve price of 50 million Chinese coins!
This gem is definitely worth 40 million, and the market value is 40 million!
Foreigners look at each other, such a big gem is also taken out to shoot, although this kind of thing is rare, but it can be measured by money, everyone does not want to do a loss-making business, even if they take it back to China to speculate, they can earn 10 million, they also want to be cold, in this way to express dissatisfaction!
After the auctioneer called three times in English in a row, he didn't wait any longer, and immediately struck the hammer and announced that the auction was lost!
There was an uproar!
At this time, the auctioneer invited Shen Shiyi, the general manager of Haoshan Group!
Shen Shiyi stepped forward with an elegant temperament and said in English: "Thank you very much for coming, this ruby has not been auctioned, it is a very happy thing, because I am about to choose a gift for my employee, she is the senior manager of Haoshan Group Logistics Company - Miss Howard Alyssa of Country Y!
When Alyssa came to the stage, everyone was dumbfounded, it was really the daughter of the Howard family!
Many people from country Y know the dignity of the Howard family, and they have also heard that there is a charming young lady who never thought of staying in Haoshan Group to work, which is really incredible.
What's even more incredible is that the boss of the group easily gave away tens of millions of gems to others, even if it was given to his own sister, few were willing to give it away!
Shen Shiyi gave this dazzling ruby to Alyssa on the spot!
After saying a few words of thanks, the beautiful female boss walked off the stage arm in arm with Alyssa, and everyone in the audience sighed!
They have figured it out, this auction house is not short of money, it is lacking in morality! This is the person who wants to play to death today! Bid, just bleed, don't shoot, you will never have a chance.
The auction went so smoothly that it was in full swing, and they claimed to understand the value of art, and of course they did not hesitate to take back what their country had to lose......
When the auction ended in the afternoon, preliminary statistics showed that seven of the 100 pieces were unauctioned, and the auction income was 3 billion Huaxia coins!
When Lin Wen listened to Liu Yu's report, he laughed like a little fox, even Shen Shiyi, Liu Yu and Alyssa couldn't see it, they had seen cunning, but they had never seen such a cunning and vicious guy!
"Liu Yu, have the rest been arranged?" Lin Wen asked.
"It's arranged, do I dare not do my best to do what you have to explain? Otherwise, you won't have to fire me for squid!" Liu Yu no longer has that cold appearance, but his face is full of spring breeze, and there is a smile in his eyes.
It's just that after Shen Shiyi heard this, her eyes narrowed, when did Liu Yu dare to speak to Lin Wen in such a tone? Why does this sound so ambiguous? A woman's intuition is very sensitive, but sometimes it is very precise! This girl can't be a ......
After the auction ended, everyone was shocked again as they passed through the hall!
Pictures of 100 foreign treasures are hung all over the hall, and this is the next auction item!
How much the fuck is there? Just looking at these things makes people covetous, how much wealth is that? How can he find this treasure?
The next auction of foreign treasures is in a month!
For a time, the small auction house of Yingcheng has become the focus of attention of the world's rich, and it has also become the object of attention of many countries!
An auction of foreign treasures and a golden crown caused a huge sensation and shocked foreign countries for a while!
Yingcheng is famous, this small city that has not been noticed in China, but now it has become the focus of attention of the Chinese people!
Country Y will exchange fifty-five precious antiques for the Golden Crown, and the exchange site is in the camp city!
It was a prosaic exchange of antiques, but it was hyped up one after another, and I have to admire Shen Tujie's technical ability!
What attracted attention and praise was mainly because of the patriotic actions of Haoshan Group.
Fifty-five pieces of antiques from the Song Dynasty, Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty were donated to the Palace Museum by Haoshan Group free of charge!
The beautiful pastel porcelain of the Qing Dynasty, the calligraphy and painting of Tang Yin with Danqing and wonderful brushes, and the porcelain of the official kiln of the Ming Dynasty that is as warm as jade...... It's a pleasing sight to behold.
The things left by these ancestors have finally returned to their homes, and people who love collecting have praised them, and even praised Shen Shiyi, the boss of Haoshan, for not only being beautiful and captivating, but also being patriotic!
Director Zhang of the Palace Museum personally attended the donation to accept the donation!
Dean Zhang's concise speech gave Shen Shiyi, general manager of Haoshan Group, very high praise!
Dean Zhang was very excited to see these exquisite treasures, and the old man had tears in his eyes, as if he was watching his children return home, which made everyone present moved and moved!
A simple auction of foreign treasures turned out to be vigorous and shocking to China and foreign countries, and even the senior leaders of the country looked at the report handed to the case with a smile and praise!
