22. Competition

Qiulin Company, the scene of the celebration auction.

The auctioneer looked at the audience and sensed that something was wrong.

Because when the price reached 300 million, it seemed to have reached the limit, and it suddenly stopped with a bang. The whole scene was silent, and no one was holding a sign.

"300 million for the first time, is there a higher price?"

The auctioneer shouted excitedly.

But the scene was silent, and no one raised any more signs.

"300 million for the second time, is there a higher price? This may be the last treasure in the world to appear on the market. Don't miss out, ladies and gentlemen. ”

Layers of sweat beaded on the auctioneer's forehead.

The price of 300 million is far from the limit!

If this "Sunflower" is auctioned at this price, his career as an auctioneer is estimated to come to an end, and this will also be a stain on his career.

He looked in one direction.

There's a tray arranged by the auction house over there.

He glanced in the direction of the second-story stone forest again, and he didn't know if the stone forest would use a support.

After all, the risk of using the trust is too great.

What if it falls into your own hands?

Offstage.

A lot of talk rang out again.

"Boss Xiaoshi is in trouble. ”

Lin Jia looked at the group of Europeans and Americans in the other row and shook his head and said.

Du Hongchang drank a cup of tea and shook his head, "Normal, treat us Huaxia, these foreign devils have always been very single-minded." I'm curious, how will Boss Xiaoshi solve it?"

"Does that need to be said?"

Lin Jia smiled.

"That's right, I just don't know if Boss Xiaoshi has the courage to compete with these Europeans and Americans. That's 300 million! One mistake can be a big loss. ”

Du Hongchang shook his head and smiled.

Shilin can use the support to raise the price, but there is a risk of smashing it in his own hands.

Of course, 300 million RMB can be auctioned out, anyway, the loss is the owner.

However, this price, even ordinary people can see, is too far away from the real transaction price difference.

In this way, for the 'Qiulin Auction House', the loss is huge.

This is also Du Hongchang and Lin Jia who don't know that this "Sunflower" originally belongs to the stone forest, otherwise there would be no such worry.

Publicity, this "Sunflower" was commissioned for auction by a collector, and it is not the auction house's own collection.

"Why don't we help him?"

At this time, Mai Nuo on the side couldn't help but speak.

This made Lin Jia look at her and said, "Why did Xiao Nuo think of helping him?"

"Oh, it's nothing, I just want to! First, Sister Lin, don't you just like this painting? Even if you can't raise the price, you won't lose money if you get it! Second, they are all Chinese, and they are still in China, so they can't be bullied by outsiders. ”

Minor said.

Lin Jia shook his head and said, "Take a look." ”

As she spoke, she looked at the stage and stopped talking.

……

Second floor.

"Chairman, what now?"

Jiang Binghe looked at the stone forest.

Shi Lin looked down, frowned and sneered.

Why, do you want to join forces to pit Lao Tzu?

Okay, then let's be ruthless, it's a big deal that this painting is collected by Lao Tzu himself.

Thinking about it, he picked up his phone and pressed it.

"300 million ......"

On the auction table, the auctioneer is already sweating profusely, do you really want to auction it out for 300 million?

Looking at the audience, those proud Europeans and Americans, he had the urge to smash the auction hammer at these people, it was too shameless, and it was too unruly.

But there is nothing to blame.

I was extremely aggrieved.

He looked at the rich people in China and hoped that someone would help him.

However, the price is too high, and it is still an offending thing, and no one stands up.

Offstage, people from other auction houses looked happy.

That's what they love the most.

If the price ......

"400 million. ”

As soon as they thought of this, a voice suddenly sounded in the field, and they saw a middle-aged man stand up and shout out the price. At the same time, a new number suddenly appeared on the quoter.

Rumble......

The spies of the other auction houses suddenly widened their eyes and were confused.

What's going on?

Is this crazy?

For a while, the audience was in an uproar.

The rich people in the audience looked at the person who shouted.

This is a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed eyes, well-dressed, and shiny hair. His temperament also seems to be extraordinary, but no one present knows him.

For a while, the rich people in the audience exchanged their heads and whispered to each other.

The five or six Europeans and Americans, who were originally triumphant and determined to win, also put down their wine glasses abruptly, sat up straight, and frowned.

"Is this To?"

Everyone in the audience was asking themselves, but there were no answers.

If it's To, is it necessary to be so ruthless?

As we all know, the auction is arranged only to raise the price. Even if the price is increased, it is added little by little, how can there be a bite to add 100 million?

Isn't that a joke?

Don't be afraid to scare away real buyers!

"Mr. Du, look?"

In the front row, Lin Jia was also taken aback.

The direct price increase of 100 million is too unexpected.

"Huh!"

Du Hongchang glanced back at the middle-aged man, smiled, and said, "Boss Xiaoshi is more courageous than we imagined!"

"Really?"

Lin Jia was surprised.

Even Maino on the side was surprised.

"It's so similar. ”

Maino muttered to herself, in her impression, Maizi was such a person.

……

"Chairman, you ......"

On the second floor, Jiang Binghe was also taken aback.

Your own boss is too fierce, isn't it?

Aren't you afraid to scare buyers away?

Shi Lin sat down again and waved his hand. These Europeans and Americans, he understands, this price can't scare away.

On the auction table.

The auctioneer was also taken aback.

He naturally knew that the middle-aged man was Tuo, but he was still excited, and shouted excitedly: "400 million, gentlemen, ladies, today's most remarkable moment has arrived." 400 million RMB, is there a higher price? 400 million once, 400 million second, 400 million ......"

This time, the auctioneer seemed to be satisfied with the price, as if the man was the real buyer, and he no longer hesitated to strike the hammer as quickly as he had just now.

"410 million. ”

Before the auctioneer could strike the hammer for the third time, a bearded European or American man held up a sign.

This price is basically the real value of this "Sunflower".

Second floor.

Shi Lin sneered, looked at the audience, and glanced at the Europeans and Americans, "500 million." ”

His voice reached To's ears.

"500 million RMB. ”

This time, even that Tuo couldn't help but hesitate. Immediately, he held up the sign, looking determined to win, so that the whole audience looked at each other.

For a moment, the audience became unusually quiet.

The atmosphere became more and more eerie.

This kind of price increase scared everyone.

At the auction, the price was raised by nearly 100 million yuan at a time, who has ever seen it?

The middle-aged man looks like he is determined to win, so that everyone can't grasp it again.

Wealthy people from Japan, South Korea, the Middle East, and Russia are also drinking fine wine and watching a drama at this time.

Those Europeans and Americans, who were determined to win, also talked in English in low voices.

"Fuck, is this To?"

"It's hard to say, look at the momentum, it's not quite like it. ”

"But I don't feel right, the people who can produce 500 million should not be unknown. If you look at those Chinese people, they obviously don't know this person. ”

"It's hard to say, there are many hidden rich people in China. ”
