The first four rounds of bidding for "Wuyi Rain Alley" were carried out without shock.

Standing behind the auction table, every time Ye Tian shouted out an offer, the audience would raise his arms like a forest, and the audience gathered, and the scene was extremely lively.

In the blink of an eye, the auction of "Wuyi Rain Alley" has come to the fifth round of bidding, that is, the free bidding stage, and the price of this painting by Master Fu Baoshi has exceeded 50,000 yuan.

As the auction progressed, the atmosphere became more and more hot.

Everyone who is eligible to participate in the bidding is gearing up, waiting for the free bidding stage to arrive, and then quoting the price they have secretly set to win the valuable painting in one fell swoop.

Ye Tian, who was standing behind the auction table, did not immediately announce the start of free bidding, but said with a smile:

"Once again, I would like to remind you that in the next fifth round of bidding, everyone will only have one chance to bid, so please think carefully before bidding.

If the bid price is higher than the upper limit of the transaction price, it will be considered invalid, which means that the painting is no longer related to you.

The reason for this is very simple, this is a public auction, not an ordinary auction that pursues maximum profits, and I also have to consider everyone's financial affordability.

Once the price is shouted, it cannot be changed, and it is a one-shot sale! I and my employees and notaries will supervise it, and please supervise each other!"

"Understood, Xiaotian, don't worry, our buddies won't be so tasteless!"

Dawei and Huazi in the audience responded loudly, and the other guests also nodded, and no one disagreed.

Ye Tian nodded lightly, and then said loudly with a smile on his face:

"That's great! In the fourth round of quotations just now, many people took the price of 50,000 yuan, and now they will start bidding freely based on 50,000 yuan.

In order to facilitate statistics, let's come table by table, the camera on the scene will record the whole process, and when all the buyers participating in the auction have all given bids, I will announce the results.

Then, the notary will announce the upper limit of the transaction price to ensure openness and transparency, who can take this "Wuyi Rain Alley" by Master Fu Baoshi, and the answer will be released soon.

My family will not participate in the auction, and the rest of the people will take turns to give bids in the order from front to back and from left to right, Uncle Fang, let's start with your table."

As he spoke, Ye Tian raised his hand to a table located in the first row of the banquet hall and on the left side of the stage, and made a gesture of please.

At the same time, the camera of the scene also focused on the table, giving a close-up of the table.

The other guests in the banquet hall all looked at this side, ready to hear what the few people sitting at this table would offer, and they could follow suit.

"Okay, Xiaotian, you're welcome, this "Wuyi Rain Alley" is indeed very beautiful, and it is a masterpiece, I really want to accept it, but I don't know if I can get my wish, the price I gave is 150,000 yuan!"

Uncle Fang, who was sitting at the table under the table, nodded and said, and gave his own offer, his eyes full of anticipation and excitement.

Immediately after Uncle Fang, several other guests who were also sitting at this table gave their own quotations one after another, and everyone's eyes were full of anticipation.

This was followed by the guests seated at the second table, the guests seated at the third table, the fourth, the fifth、......。

In just three or five minutes, the guests who intend to compete for this "Wuyi Rain Alley" have all given quotations, ranging from tens of thousands to more than 300,000 yuan, and everyone is still relatively conservative.

Of course, this does not include professionals who are blushing but can't participate in the bidding.

If they were involved, the offer would be far from the same, and it would have been a shock.

The auction is over, just wait for the result.

Without exception, everyone at the scene looked at Ye Tian, and everyone's eyes were extremely hot and full of anticipation.

Ye Tian, who was standing behind the auction table, did not continue to whet everyone's appetite, but directly announced the answer.

"At the end of the free bidding, I have been listening to the offers you have just given, and I have to say that everyone is really generous and enthusiastic, and I would like to thank you all for your active participation.

Now announce the bidding results, please ask the buyers who bid 99,850 yuan to stand up and let everyone see who you are, this "Wuyi Rain Alley" by Master Fu Baoshi belongs to you"

Before the words fell, an excited cheer sounded at the scene.

"Ahh

With cheers, a slightly wealthy woman in her fifties quickly stood up from her seat and gently covered her mouth with her hand, her face full of ecstasy.

This aunt Ye Tian knows, is a colleague of my mother, and is also a university teacher, and lives in the community near the official garden in Xicheng, and is a neighbor of Ye Tian's family.

"Aunt Ding, congratulations, you successfully won this Master Fu Baoshi's "Wuyi Rain Alley", I have to say that the quotation you gave is very accurate and admirable!"

Ye Tian said with a smile and directly announced the bidding results.

In the next moment, the banquet hall was directly boiling.

Although I knew that someone would definitely win the bid and win this "Wuyi Rain Alley", when the results came out, everyone was still shocked and discussed.

"This is a masterpiece, I thought that the upper limit of the transaction price set by Ye Tian would cost hundreds of thousands of yuan, but who knew that it was only about 100,000 yuan, and it was a miscalculation!"

"Yes, this painting of Master Fu Baoshi is considered to have fallen elsewhere, and it has nothing to do with buddies, but I don't believe it, the remaining nine antique artworks, are they all related to buddies?"

While there was a lot of discussion, everyone looked at the final winner with envy, and hated to take his place and take the painting of Master Fu Baoshi into their arms and keep it for themselves.

Looking at Teacher Ding at this time, she was already dancing excitedly, celebrating with her friends, and she also deliberately left the table and walked to Ye Tian's mother and gave her a hug.

Next, a notary sitting in the notary table stood up, took the microphone, and announced the upper limit of the auction price set by Ye Tian for this "Wuyi Rain Alley".

The upper limit of the transaction price he set was 99,860 yuan, which was only ten yuan higher than Aunt Ding's quotation, so Ye Tiancai said that the quotation given by Aunt Ding was very accurate.

As for the quotations given by the rest of the competitors, except for a few that are lower than Aunt Ding's quotations, most of them are higher than the upper limit of the transaction price, and all of them have become invalid quotations!

With the announcement of the upper limit of the transaction price, a sigh immediately sounded at the scene, and every voice was full of regret.

As for Aunt Ding, who won the bid, she gasped and secretly rejoiced!

Whether it was sighing secretly or cheering and celebrating, everyone was even more sure of one thing at this time, Ye Tian was changing his way to help everyone, so he set the transaction price so low.

Thinking of this, everyone has a good idea and confidence in how to bid for the next nine antique artworks that will be unveiled!

The auction of the first antique artwork has been successfully concluded without any problems with the process and the result.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian told the two company employees to take out the second antique artwork on the auction, show it to everyone, and then start the auction.

Then, the two museum personnel took a black painting bag and took out a painting from it.

This is a Western artwork, an oil on canvas painting of small size, about 40 centimeters wide and about 60 centimeters high, set in a simple style solid wood frame.

The picture is shaded with gold as the background, and the painter places different figures in various colors and lines on the rectangular picture.

The flowing curves and the bright and dark figures in the painting make the whole picture full of life.

At first glance, this oil painting on canvas looks more like a decorative painting, with strong color contrast, full of colorful large color blocks, gorgeous and abnormal, bringing people a strong visual impact!

On this small canvas, the painter skillfully uses different curves and color blocks to form a pattern-like picture, with realism in decoration and figuration in abstraction.

It can be seen that the painter's painting style is quite unique, and it also shows the painter's brilliant painting skills.

When the painting was presented in front of everyone's eyes and on the big screen TV, the banquet hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone was admiring the painting seriously.

But this is a typical Western work of art, and the style of painting is very unique, and the art genre to which it belongs is also relatively secluded.

So for a while, everyone was confused, but they just felt that this painting was very good, but they couldn't say what was good about it!

After a while, there was a lot of discussion from the professionals.

"This is supposed to be a symbolist painting, it looks good, but it is the work of the Western artist, I don't know!"

"That's right, this formal pursuit of ornate and ornamental effects is the distinguishing feature of symbolism!"

Just when everyone was talking in a low voice and secretly guessing, Ye Tianqing's voice came out of the stage again and reached the ears of everyone on the scene.

"The painting you see now is a symbolist work by the famous Austrian painter and founder of the Vienna Secession, Gustav Klimt.

This symbolist painting was discovered by Betty and I on our honeymoon in Nice, France, at the local antique market in Nice, and then we took it back to New York, USA.

You may not know much about symbolism, about the Vienna Secession, about the famous painter Gustav Klimt, but I think it is necessary to give a brief introduction,......"
