Chapter 1888 Let the Price Fly for a While
In this auction, in addition to the dishes, there are other auction items worth mentioning.
Yang Fei looked at the auction brochure and paid attention to the auction movement on the field.
Fu Heng pointed out that there are several works of art that are quite collectible, and suggested that Yang Fei buy them.
Yang Fei shook his head lightly and said in a low voice: "I know these things are excellent, but my main goal today is to save enough dollars to take pictures of this collection first." If you have spare energy, you can shoot others. ”
Fu Heng nodded yes.
Wang Yuanzhi smiled slightly and said to Fu Heng: "This boss of ours is really a very purposeful person. ”
Fu Heng said: "This may be the reason why he is so successful!"
Wang Yuanzhi said: "There are many people in the world who have picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons, and if their minds are not strong and their thoughts are not resolute, everything will not be accomplished." ”
Fu Heng said: "Yuanzhi, I didn't recommend the wrong person, right?"
Wang Yuanzhi said with a smile: "He is the richest man, can he be wrong? If he is wrong, he will not become the richest man." ”
Before the dish came out, the only thing Yang Fei cared about was the two collections that Luo Yuxi auctioned.
The two pieces in Luo Yuxi's collection are both Western oil paintings.
Yang Fei is not familiar with these foreign painters, but looking at her transaction price, he knows that these painters are estimated to be famous figures.
In Luo Yuxi's family business, there is an antique and art transaction, and the collection she can fancy is not necessarily the most expensive, but it must have room for appreciation.
Yang Fei also noticed that Liang Chao's group of people had also been standing still, and they really came for the dish, and other than that, they ignored the other auction items.
It's been a long time coming!
Dish Fang Wei has finally appeared!
Fu Heng reminded: "Boss, here." ”
Yang Fei snorted and said, "Don't worry, let the price fly for a while." ”
“......”
It was handed over to Christie's New York for auction by the Nitta family.
The Nitta family suffered an economic crisis, and in order to preserve the family, Nitta had to put up a part of the collection for auction.
The dish is exactly in the middle of it.
This is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for China.
The host on the stage is introducing the dish Fangli.
In fact, as soon as he appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of the audience.
After all, the body of the vessel is really the most important weapon of the country, and it is exquisite!
"Wei" was born in the late Shang Dynasty, popular in the Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period, extinct in the Warring States Period, belongs to the wine vessel in the wine container, and "Fang Wei" is very rare.
Among the people who participated in the auction on the spot, there were many Asian faces, in addition to Yang Fei and Liang Chao, there were also many Oriental faces, I don't know which country or region they came from.
It is an oriental artifact, and the attention of orientals to it is obviously relatively high.
Those who are familiar with the antique auction industry should know that after a lot is auctioned, it generally takes 20 years to enter the auction again.
20 years, almost a generation.
Within 20 years, the owner of the collection will change hands, economic changes, and the price of the collection will rise due to the time span, and the owner of the collection may be able to put it up for auction.
So, when you see a unique piece at auction, you sell it when it's time to sell it, and if you miss it, you have to wait another 20 years.
It's not hard to understand why collectors are desperate to bid on their favorite lots, sometimes to the point of madness, and the high prices at previous auctions once seemed incredible.
After the introduction of the dish, the auction began.
Yang Fei was not in a hurry to raise his cards.
He's watching.
The bidding was fierce from the start.
Yang Fei probably listened to it, and there were as many as a dozen people participating in the bidding.
But when the price exceeded $2 million, the bidders immediately fell off a cliff, and only a few people were still bidding.
Among the bidders, most of them were oriental faces, and there were only three European and American bidders.
Yang Fei's expression was still very calm.
Fu Heng said: "Boss, it's more than two million dollars, it's time to make a move." ”
Yang Fei smiled: "It's still early." ”
Fu Heng won't say much.
He has followed Yang Fei to participate in several auctions and has seen Yang Fei's methods.
Auction is not only more than money, but also more than psychological quality, as well as the means of bidding.
Sometimes, you don't have to pay too much money and you can still make a successful bid.
And sometimes, you and others raise the bar, and the two of them continue to compete for the title, and in the end they have to pay several times or even dozens of times the price.
Liang Chao has been holding up cards.
He gives people the feeling that he is as imposing as a rainbow, and he has to take this dish.
Even Chen Mo saw that the other party was too anxious, and said to Yang Fei: "They bid so much, it is easy for people to take advantage of them and raise the price." ”
Yang Fei said: "They care too much about this dish, just like their long-lost son, once they see it, how can they not want to take it home immediately?"
Chen Mo said: "I don't know how much budget they have?"
Yang Fei said: "I guess it's almost the top." ”
At this moment, Liang Chao suddenly shouted directly: "3 million US dollars!"
And at this moment, the bidding has only reached $2.3 million!
The audience was in an uproar.
$700,000 direct markup!
It's a big deal!
Chen Mo listened to it and said with a smile: "Rich and rich!"
Yang Fei shook his head slightly and said, "I estimate that $3 million is their limit." He shouted out 3 million in one breath, just to scare away other bidders in one go. ”
Chen Mo said: "You have also used this trick." ”
Yang Fei said with a smile: "I am in China, and the bidders know my identity and status, so let me score three points." That's why my plan will succeed. This is Christie's, and there are collectors from all over the world, and there are many rich people in it. How can a mere 3 million be scared away?"
Chen Mo said: "You still don't hold up the card?"
Yang Fei waved his hand and said, "Wait a little longer!"
After Liang Chao quoted $3 million, his nervous palms were sweating!
His idea, as Yang Fei said, was indeed to use high prices to scare away other bidders.
After the surprise, there was a few seconds of silence.
Liang Chao thought he had a plan!
Unfortunately, he didn't have time to rejoice, and the bid was immediately broken.
It was a European or American who held up the card, and after this person raised the card, his face was calm.
Immediately after, another Asian man held up a sign.
Everyone's eyes looked at Liang Chao, and everyone thought that with Liang Chao's big gesture just now, there would definitely be an amazing performance next.
However, it disappointed everyone.
Liang Chao did not quote again, and he didn't even raise his cards.
Yang Fei's guess was right, Liang Chao and his team only raised $3 million.
There is no more foreign exchange for one more dollar!
Liang Chao sighed gloomily:
What a dish that has been lost!
After decades of separation, this time we can still only pass by!
I don't know how long I'll have to wait for the next auction!
The body and the cover, in what year and month, can the two become one?
Listening to the rising bidding, Liang Chao clenched his fists, slowly closed his eyes, and gently pounded the chair back helplessly and weakly.
Alas, there is no money!
