Chapter 560: Craftsman Spirit
As the video played, everyone froze, everyone held their breath, their eyes didn't dare to blink, and the auctioneer's narration was even more moving than the video.
When the wind blows the willows, you can also hear the birdsong and smell the fragrance of flowers, which is as real as in the painting.
"Can you see the real thing now?" someone shouted.
"Switch the camera of the exhibition hall below, and you can watch it from the perspective of the second scene. After the auction is over, everyone can watch it up close, but remember not to make it noisy and crowded, but if it breaks, you will have to pay compensation. The auctioneer laughed.
"What is the origin of that Mr. Anle?" someone asked again.
"Today, we are fortunate to have Mr. An Le to the scene. Let's welcome this master of art with a round of applause!" said the auctioneer.
Yu Wenkai burst into tears, he never expected that he would be able to walk to the front of the stage, but he was a little worried, "Xiaoji, my image is not good, so I will be exempt from the stage." ”
"Master, I'll go up with you!" Mai Xiaoji stretched out his palm, Yu Wenkai smiled contentedly, put his calloused hand in his hand, and slowly walked up to the high platform under the admiring gaze of everyone.
The applause lasted for a long time, and the auctioneer also asked the camera to zoom in to see what kind of hands it was.
"Master An Le, I would like to ask you a few questions, what is your original intention in creating such a collection?" the auctioneer played the role of a reporter.
"No matter how well the ancient paintings are preserved, I hope to use my own hands to keep the classics for a longer time. "Yu Wenkai has seen the world, although his appearance is not good, but he is neither humble nor arrogant, and his bearing is not good.
"Do you have any plans for the next creation?" asked the auctioneer.
"There are a lot of things to do, I have thought about the restoration of the miniature sculpture of Daxing City, the restoration of the imperial palace, and the carving of a modern city, such as the beautiful riverside. Of course, the most urgent thing to do is to carve out the "Autumn Equinox River Map"!"
Yu Wenkai's words frightened everyone, and while applauding warmly, he was also secretly calculating that the last collection would have a series of works. If the carvings of "Qingming Riverside Map" and "Autumn Equinox Riverside Map" are collected, the value will be unimaginably high.
Craftsman spirit!
In the admiring eyes of everyone, Mai Xiaoji helped Yu Wenkai back to his seat, and felt it up close, so that he could know that his body was trembling at the moment, and his heart must be extremely excited.
Because it is a contemporary work, the starting price is very low, five million. But everyone has a measure in their hearts, and it will soon be broken.
Sure enough, Yan Rui was the first to make a bid, 10 million.
Yu Xuanji covered his mouth and laughed again, and said in a low voice: "Stingy!"
Yan Rui had no face, and directly added it to 20 million, and was quickly suppressed by Ling Gang's 30 million. Although Yan Rui is young, his investment is very conservative, and he no longer increases the price, Yu Xuanji pouted and gave him a nickname, 20 million!
Yu Daocheng also wanted it, and after a few price increases, it was added to 50 million, and then 100 million.
This is already a sky-high price for contemporary wood carving works.
Kong Qun kept staring at the screen, his hands were sweating nervously, but Mai Xiaoji glanced at Lu Youcai, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, and his expression was uncertain, but Mai Xiaoji knew that he was tempted.
"Two hundred million!" A voice sounded at the scene, it was actually Lu Youcai's own voice, but other people's attention was on the collection, and they didn't feel it deeply.
"It's broken 100 million again, but some people have never broken 100 million in price. Yu Xuanji spoke again, and what he said was Yan Rui.
Mai Xiaoji saw Yan Rui get up and go out, as if on the phone, and then came back, and said loudly with confidence: "Three hundred million!"
A ragged colt may make a good horse!
Many collectors have a good impression of this handsome young man, and Yan Rui is also proud, thinking that he has earned back face in front of Yu Xuanji.
Yu Wenkai was the happiest, and Li Qingzhao also smiled and said hello to him. Not everyone's financial resources can be increased by tens of millions or hundreds of millions of yuan, and some people raised their hands but put them down. Although the wood carving is good, it is an unknown contemporary work after all, and the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars has to consider the cost recovery period.
Yan Rui was proud, and he was determined to get this collection, and Mai Xiaoji also gave him a thumbs up, which was bold. Not to mention the mystery of the fish, he also sent a flying kiss, Yan Rui directly covered his chest and rolled his eyes, with a very exaggerated expression.
Lu Youcai looked at Mai Xiaoji and then looked back at Yan Rui behind him, with a displeased face, and coldly spit out a number that shocked the audience, one billion.
"Oh my God!" Li Qingzhao shouted, this is not to blame her, everyone's mood is like this.
Mai Xiaoji didn't know whether to be happy or worried, he and Lu Youcai, if they were not enemies, they were by no means friends. After all, Lu Youcai already suspected that he had stolen his golden calf.
There are many masters around you, and you can always get rare antiques, which cannot be described as lucky. Mai Xiaoji faintly regretted that he shouldn't have brought so many people with him, but he was afraid that Lu Youcai would keep an eye on him in the future and would never relax.
Stormy waves meet stormy waves, and the waves are higher!
Mai Xiaoji only understood what Mai Dao Chang meant at this time.
The dust has settled, and none of the entire collection has been unsold, which is gratifying. Next, everyone was in a hurry to visit the wood carving. The buyer, Lu Youcai, was not in a hurry, but walked straight to Mai Xiaoji's side, and shook his generous and warm hand politely.
"Boss Lu, thank you for your generous efforts. Mai Xiaoji pretended to be calm.
"Hehe, if there are good things in the future, don't come here, just tell me directly. Lu Youcai smiled faintly.
"It's too much this time. ”
"The total price is only 3.33 billion, so there is no need to be so cautious. ”
Mai Xiaoji fainted several times, this number is no longer within the reach of ordinary people, and it is also the goal of the so-called rich people's lifelong struggle.
"Your breath is very big. Mai Xiaoji said.
"Money, what is it? It's just something outside of your body. ”
"Aren't you going to see the real thing?"
"I've asked people to move, and I'll take a look when I go back. ”
"How about staying for dinner? I see that the buffet at noon is very good, the vegetables are very fresh, and there are sweet turnips, which are crunchy to eat. Mai Xiaoji said with a smile.
Lu Youcai also smiled, took out a fan and opened it, "If you want to talk about radish and cabbage, it's still delicious that I grow myself." ”
Mai Xiaoji froze suddenly, peach blossom fan!
When Lu Youcai left, he patted Mai Xiaoji on the shoulder, "Money, little meaning, don't be like this in the future, it's all troublesome." ”
The realm of rich people can't be understood, if anyone wants to steal their golden bull, Mai Xiaoji has to find out to the end. After a while, Ling Gang also came back dejected, and as soon as he saw the real thing, someone went over and folded and packed the wood carving works and took them away, and they were not happy.
"Xiao Ji, such a good thing, you should say it in advance. Ling Gang said angrily.
"What, you can buy it for a billion?" Kong Qun quipped.
"We have to see enough of this relationship, right?" Ling Gang said with a bitter face.
Yan Rui also swaggered over, leaned beside Yu Xuanji, combed his hair with his hand, and said proudly: "Sister Youwei, what's the matter, my performance is good today, right?"
"You're just a coax, and you haven't paid a penny. ”
After Yu Xuanji finished speaking, he covered his mouth and smiled, Yan Rui looked embarrassed, and he was reluctant to refute, he was scolded by a beautiful woman, not to mention a joke!
