Chapter 552 Auction of the Farsco Company

"Because I am true to them, and this is the most precious thing to women!" Jiang Ping replied with a smile, and then asked Lan Ke'er beside him: "Ke'er, are you right?"

"That's right!" Of course, Lan Keer nodded without hesitation, supporting Jiang Ping's statement 100%.

"Oh, look at your affection, I really can't stand it!" Nicholas exaggeratedly covered his eyes: "Please don't do this, my soul is seriously hurt!" ”

Since he has come to Paris, Jiang Ping does not plan to go back so soon, but stays to see the movements of Fasco, and by the way, it is better to see Lin Xiaonan, who is studying here.

Lin Xiaonan didn't know that Jiang Ping had come to Paris, which was of course an unexpected surprise for her. When Lin Xiaonan, who was out of school, was very happy when he saw Jiang Ping, who was smiling and groaning, he immediately stepped forward and gave his sweetheart a warm hug, regardless of how many classmates were around.

And Lin Xiaonan's doing this also broke the hearts of many male classmates in the school who had a crush on her. Originally, these guys thought they had some hope, but now they are all disappointed.

"Why are you here?" After a warm hug, Lin Xiaonan took Jiang Ping's arm and said happily: "I don't know if you call me in advance, I'll pick you up!" ”

Of course, Jiang Ping wouldn't tell Lin Xiaonan the truth, but said with a smile: "I just want to surprise you, how can I tell you in advance?" Let's go, please have dinner! ”

Although Jiang Ping had just received more than eight million US dollars, he could afford to invite Lin Xiaonan to eat at the best restaurant in Paris. But Lin Xiaonan just wanted to go to the small restaurant that the two used to go to, and Jiang Ping had no choice but to follow her.

After dinner, Jiang Ping and Lin Xiaonan returned to her apartment, and the two of them quickly met frankly. Express your love for each other in the most primitive way.

Maybe it's because I'm in a particularly good mood today. Lin Xiaonan also behaved enthusiastically. took the initiative to meet Jiang Ping. Especially when her long legs, which are comparable to international supermodels, are wrapped around Jiang Ping's waist, there is a sense of enchantment that she usually does not have, and it also makes Jiang Ping completely immersed in her gentle hometown.

In the next few days, Jiang Ping almost stayed with Lin Xiaonan and flew together. During the day, Lin Xiaonan went to school, and Jiang Ping went to the Piero family's office in the city to pay attention to Fasco's every move. Then he went to school to pick up Lin Xiaonan, accompanied her to dinner, and then went back to Lin Xiaonan's apartment for the night.

Lin Xiaonan is very satisfied with this kind of life. I just wish it could be like this forever. However, Jiang Ping was destined to revolve around just one woman, and after about a few days, he had to say goodbye to Lin Xiaonan - Fasco began advertising the Easter egg.

wants to separate from Jiang Ping again, of course Lin Xiaonan is reluctant. However, she also knew that she couldn't tie Jiang Ping to her side, so she could only accept this fact. In fact, Lin Xiaonan knew in his heart that if Jiang Ping was really such a man, he would not like him.

After saying goodbye to Lin Xiaonan, Jiang Ping went to meet with Nicholas to pay attention to Fasco's promotion of this easter egg.

As the owner of Facisco, Mark has not had a good time lately. The big mistake in the last acquisition of the Easter egg made him far less important in front of the big boss. The only thing that comforted Mark. It's just that the easter eggs are still in their hands, as long as they are operated well. It can also save some face.

So Mark personally inquired about the promotion of this Easter egg, and did not hesitate to spend a lot of money on it. As a result, major European newspapers and television stations, as well as some websites, coincidentally appeared about this Easter egg.

In addition, some experts in this field have also spoken out, saying that the rediscovery of the work of Alexander Ivanov, the master of easter eggs, is definitely a major event in the world of collecting. And this easter egg also has a very high artistic value and investment value, no matter who has this condition to buy it, it will be a very cost-effective transaction.

Speaking from the heart, these propaganda and comments are not untargeted, and they are basically telling the truth. After all, Fasco can do some shady things in the dark, but on the surface, it still has to maintain its image of honesty and credibility. Especially in this kind of multi-million dollar transaction, if there is any false publicity or something, once the other party and the company start a lawsuit, it will definitely lose a lot.

It's just that the vast majority of people don't know that all the publicity and comments are based on the fact that this Easter egg is genuine. However, this Easter egg is a fake made up by Jiang Ping, and these propaganda and comments will make the person who bought the easter egg take medicine.

With such overwhelming publicity, coupled with a gimmick such as "the long-lost precious artwork has been rediscovered", this Easter egg immediately attracted the attention of many people. There are also some collectors and investors who are really interested in this Easter egg and have contacted Fasco to inquire about it.

Mark has made up his mind to make a full deal of work on this easter egg and save his image in the eyes of the big boss. Therefore, Fasco told these potential customers who came to inquire that a special auction would be held to auction this precious Easter egg.

As a long-established art investment company, Fasco is familiar with holding similar auctions. Under the personal intervention of the big boss Mark, the auction was quickly prepared.

In order for collectors around the world to participate in the auction, the eggs can be sold for a higher price. In addition to on-site bidding and telephone bidding, FASCO announced that in this auction, a new auction mechanism will be introduced, the Internet auction. Bidders who have obtained the bid in advance will not only be able to place their bids on the Internet, but will also be able to see the live broadcast of the auction site through the Internet.

Seeing this publicity stunt of Fasco, Jiang Ping couldn't help but sigh secretly, it is not unreasonable for people to do such a big business, there are indeed a group of employees with ideas.

You must know that it is only 2003, and the Internet has only just been emerging for a few years. It is not easy for Fasco to think of this auction method, which shows that they have put a lot of thought into it.

However, for Jiang Ping, online bidding also has an advantage, that is, he does not have to go to the scene, he can understand the situation at the auction in real time. Of course, such a good opportunity could not be easily let go, and Jiang Ping quickly obtained a qualification for an online auction through the relationship of the Piero family.

In anticipation of many collectors and industry insiders, the auction of Fasco has finally begun. On this day, Mark was dressed in a formal suit and appeared at the auction on time.

Although there was only one lot in this auction, there were a lot of customers. Combined with the competitors who bid by phone and online, there were more than 300 people participating in the auction.

Mark is very pleased with this result, knowing that this is not a low-end auction, but an Easter egg. This is a tens of millions of auctions, and the fact that so many people have participated shows that the publicity a while ago was very successful. Of course, Mark also knows in his heart that the most important thing that so many people are interested in Easter eggs is because of the rarity and preciousness of this easter egg.

"If we can get more than 18 million dollars, maybe we can calm the anger of the big boss." Looking at the full auction hall, Mark secretly hoped that the auction would have a good result.

At nine o'clock in the morning local time, the auction officially began.

Fasco's best auctioneer was the first to appear, introducing the upcoming Easter eggs in a very demagogic tone. Then, under the watchful eye of several heavily armed guards, the Easter eggs that were packed in bulletproof glass display cases finally met with the bidders who had been waiting a little impatiently.

The display case has been specially designed to best show the magnificence and luxury of the egg in terms of light and placement. Even if everyone present is well-informed, they can't help but praise this easter egg.

Of course, it is impossible for Fasco to let so many people personally verify the authenticity of the easter eggs, just let everyone take a cursory look. Don't think that Cisco is secretly trying to kill the counterparty, but on the surface, its reputation is still very good. There is a Fasco endorsement of this Easter egg, which proves that it is indeed the real thing, but no one raises doubts about this.

In everyone's anticipation, the auctioneer quoted the low price of the egg - $10.5 million, and the bidding officially began.

The Easter eggs made by Alexander Ivanov himself are indeed very popular with collectors and museums everywhere. So as soon as the auctioneer announced the start of bidding, there were people who couldn't wait to place their bids.

The next few rounds of bidding were fierce, with most bidders increasing their bids by a whopping half a million dollars. In just ten minutes, the price of this Easter egg has reached 15 million dollars.

This also put a smile on Mark's face, and at this rate, the price of this easter egg should not be more than 18 million.

In fact, although after 15 million, bidders have become significantly more cautious in bidding, but they are still relatively enthusiastic. Mark waited patiently for about fifteen minutes, and the price had reached the bottom line he hoped for - 18 million dollars!

And the price didn't stop at that number, and then there were bids, and finally a local tyrant chief in the Gulf came out on top with $21 million. As the hammer in the auctioneer's hand fell, it was announced that the Easter egg had a new owner.

And everything that happened in the auction hall was watched by Jiang Ping through the Internet. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw the easter egg fall for $21 million. (To be continued......)
