Chapter 0946 - Breaking the Record Again!!
"You're going to scare me to death. ”
"Alas, I wanted to make a blockbuster, but it still didn't work. Zeng Jing leaned back, she only had to see this auction now: "I still think it's the first one, even if these people want it, they won't sell it so early." ”
“...... You are amazing, do you think that the people sitting here are all rookies? Not to mention those who come in person, what art agents and assistants are left, they are all running auctions every day, and you can still be bluffed by you? Everyone has a bottom line, and now it seems that 5 million will definitely not reach the bottom line of others. Damn, Lin Haven's unfamous painting can be called more than 5 million? ”
"Forget it, just watch. ”
Zeng Jing went to look at the person who had just asked for 5 million, and it happened that the other party also came over, and gestured to her, and smiled-it was a brown-haired white man, I don't know if it was me or what agent. Zeng Jing glared at him viciously, startling people.
And although the starting price of 1.5 million was directly called to 5 million, which surprised most people, but from the price of 5.2 million, the bidding returned to the normal rhythm, 100,000, 50,000 A little bit up.
In the end, No. 58 won it at an astonishing price of 7.8 million.
It was a chubby woman with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, apparently not for herself, because after she confirmed that the third hammer had fallen, she finally hung up the phone.
"Congratulations Bella. ”
"Thank you. The woman, known as Bella, exhaled, "It's so nervous, it's almost over our budget, just a little bit." ”
"Is that Mr. Sconey? he's your Prado's big benefactor. ”
Bella doesn't hide anything, as the head of the acquisition department of Spain's most famous art museum, she is all too familiar with the Lotty Art Center's acquisition manager, Laudra, and the Spanish billionaire Sconei is known to be one of Prado's largest donors.
"Yes, Mr. Sconi is funding this auction, if it's Gaia, it's capped at 10 million, if not, it's only 8 million, so really, it's just a little bit short. Bella was overjoyed.
Laudra has some faint regrets, don't look at Bella is very honest now, when she asked for the price just now, her expression was calm, as if she would accompany her if she called 100 million, so Laura stopped.
It would be nice to call 8.05 million!
"Are you going to make a move on Gaia?" Laudra asked tentatively.
Bella smiled lightly, and instead of answering him, she said something else: "Speaking of which, didn't your Getty Center already have a collection of "Yanmingyuan Street"? That was the first work of Lin Haven to enter the market, and it was on a par with "Gaia", why are you still so eager for Lin Haven's work?"
Bella still remembers that the Getty Center and the Metropolitan Museum of Art had fiercely competed for Haven Lin's "Flying Buddha", but in the end, the Met won a record $3.4 million, breaking the price ceiling of Haven Lin's works in one fell swoop.
"I'm just an errand runner, and when Persia speaks, I'll do it, who knows, maybe they want to take down Lin Haven's masterpieces from all periods. ”
"Oh," Bella whispered, "I don't know if you've got enough euros." ”
She teased this colleague from Lao Mei a little.
Laudira didn't care about this, he was really worried: "Today's scene is too unexpected, I didn't expect it at all, you have given a budget of 8 million for works like "Pomegranate Flower", how much "Gaia" needs, I don't have any bottom now." ”
"Think about it, how many art museums and art galleries are waiting to collect Lin Haven's works? Not to mention that there are so many foundations and tycoons, if Lin Haven doesn't release more works, the market price of his works may not be to what extent, I advise you, if you really want to win, today is the best opportunity, don't be the same as last time, let the Metropolis pick up such a big bargain. ”
"So, you're not going to make a move?"
"Huh. ”
......
Chang Shuo was in Gao Mei's studio, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and then turned to Lin Haven, who was standing in front of another easel:
"Congratulations, 7.8 million, 60 million RMB, a new record was born. ”
"Oh, did you shoot me?"
"Uh-huh, Prado Museum, bought your Pomegranate Flower. ”
Lin Haven smiled, very pertinent, this painting was collected by Prado in Spain, which can be said to be quite complementary, and it can be regarded as "Pomegranate Flower" and Lin Haven, paying tribute to this Spanish master who had a profound influence on him.
"It's a good fit, but 'Pomegranate Flower' is the first one, right? I remember that they used to auction in the past, then "Window-12", and finally "Gaia". ”
Chang Shuo shrugged his shoulders: "Maybe there will be good news later." ”
"It's not on my head. Lin Haven thought for a while, and said hatefully: "It can be seen that there is a problem with the sales mechanism of this painting, and it should be fixed in every sale so that the painter can extract a part, and it should be valid for 30 or 50 years." ”
“......”
It's shameless.
......
At the auction site, the dust of 7.8 million yuan settled, and many people were thrilled in their hearts, and they had to adjust their own ideas if they had ideas, either increasing their budgets or giving up. Zeng Jing's friend was also stammering, and he could hardly say a whole sentence.
Only then did she understand Zeng Jing's bull fork, if she really let Zeng Jing close the mountain just now, wouldn't it be a profit? Of course, looking at everyone's performance, there is almost no possibility.
"My God, I thought it would be amazing that he could break the record of 50 million yuan today, after all, it's not domestic, I didn't expect it to be the first one, just-"
Zeng Jing was about to sigh again.
It's getting harder and harder to collect a piece of Lin Haven's work.
After a few more rounds of auctions, Adrian Gottlieb's work was sold for 5.05 million euros, which is also quite an impressive result.
When "Window-12" started filming, everyone became significantly hotter.
It's not that Lin Haven is more bullish than the finale, but everyone is curious about what kind of height Lin Haven's auction record can fly to today, that's the explosive thing.
"Window-12" is a work of Lin Haven when he first arrived in the Black Dragon Pond studio, mainly using some techniques in light and space, and the format is slightly larger than "Pomegranate Flower".
The starting price is 1.8 million.
This time, there is no such gambler as Zeng Jing.
2 million, 2.2 million, 2.5 million...... Called all the way to 7 million, and then stopped slightly, but it didn't stop for long, and continued to go up, and when it came to 7.5 million, there were still 5 competitors.
The Tokyo Museum of Art in Fuso, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, an old friend of Haven Lin, are obviously agent agents, and one is a member of the old Meiwitt family, a wealthy family known for its wineries.
7.6 million - this is the last bid of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
7.8 million – an agent broker withdrew.
When the Tokyo Museum of Art called out 8 million, the audience was full of gasping people, 8 million!
However, he barely had much time to be shocked, Mr. Witt called out 8.2 million, the remaining agent called out 8.3 million, and Witt directly called out 8.5 million, and then made a "please" gesture.
Meaning, if you have a higher price, I won't accompany you.
"8.55 million!"
“...... The third time, the deal!!"
