Chapter 180: The Doorway
Li Dacheng hurriedly flipped to the back of the album and found that in addition to this Wu Changshuo painting, there were several pieces that had not appeared on the previous auction album, including calligraphy and paintings, jewelry, and Buddha statues, and the name sounded very scary, even Li Dacheng, a layman who had only watched the treasure appreciation show, was very familiar.
It seems that Jiade really wants to fight with Huaigu.
It's just that Li Dacheng doesn't understand, since he has strength, why did Dina pretend to be weak before?
"One million nine million, Mr. Sixty-six has come out to one million nine million, and there are any friends who bid higher? One million for the first time, one million for the second time, one million for the third time, one million for the third time, the transaction, congratulations to Mr. Sixty-six, the picture of Master Wu Changshuo's flowers and trees and narcissus peonies, let us congratulate this gentleman. ”
One million nine hundred thousand?
Li Dacheng looked at the painting of Wu Changshuo displayed on the stage, and the whole person was stunned, and his first reaction was, too cheap, right? Could it be that he heard it wrong? But thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible, because Wu Changyuan on the stage had repeatedly said the number of 1.9 million yuan, and if it was said that Yici had heard it wrong, then he would never have heard it wrong twice or three times, and as a professional, Wu Changyuan could not have made a slip of the tongue at such a moment.
In that case, it can only be another possibility.
was deceived by Liu Jin.
In Li Dacheng's thoughts, paintings should be more valuable than words, after all, paintings look more difficult than words, and it takes longer, but his pair of Wu Changshuo's calligraphy couplets, the reserve price is marked at five million, and Ye Jin also said that the final transaction price may exceed 10 million. But now, the final transaction price of a painting is only 1.9 million, wouldn't that word be cheaper?
"So low?" Li Dacheng said unconsciously.
"Low? not low. An old man sitting in the front row glanced back at Li Dacheng and said lightly.
The old man looked to be in his sixties and seventies, of medium height, with light brown hair, a somewhat gray beard, but his eyes were exceptionally bright and bright. He looks energetic and wears a brown Tang suit with a shallow cloud pattern. Like Li Dacheng, he sat alone in the corner of the venue, Li Dacheng sat in the penultimate row, and the old man sat in the penultimate row.
When Li Dacheng heard this, he raised his buttocks. Leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Old man, the junior has something unclear, please advise." ”
Seeing Li Dacheng's respectful attitude, the old man nodded lightly and said lightly, "Speak." ”
"I went to a preview of the lot at the Nostalgic Auction House, where I saw a pair of calligraphy by Master Wu Changshuo, and the reserve price was 5 million. Why did I see this painting today, but the final transaction price was only 1.9 million?" Seeing the old man's very knowledgeable appearance, Li Dacheng expressed the doubts in his heart.
"You want to ask, why is there such a big difference in the price of the same master's work, right?" The old man's casual words summed up the doubts in Li Dacheng's heart.
"Yes, yes, yes. Li Dacheng kept nodding.
"It's not hard to understand that when a master grows up, his painting style will change a lot, and he will learn from the beginning. Later, it has its own characteristics, from the gradual maturity of the style of the work, to the later perfection of the furnace, the works of each period. Its value is not the same, and after the master becomes famous, he is inevitably vulgar, and for entertainment, he paints at will, and there is no artistic level at all. Therefore, only those works with a typical style and their representativeness have high artistic value and the price will be high. ”
"I see. After Li Dacheng listened, he showed a sudden realization, he really listened to what you said, and it was better than reading a book for ten years, it seemed that it was not Ye Jin who 'lied' to him, but that there was indeed a gap between the painting in front of him and the word, and this gap was something that he couldn't see as a layman.
Now he finally understood why Dina was still weak. People are more angry than people. Although Jiade has Wu Changshuo's paintings, it is not as good as the nostalgic character.
"This is in terms of the master and the work itself, it is an internal factor, and there is an external factor that has nothing to do with the work itself, such as a hyped work, which is promoted by someone through the guò media, and then constantly holds up the card at the auction, creating the illusion of scrambling to be the first to charm others. There are also works that collectors love, some collectors love someone's work, and often buy it at a higher price than the market price, and there are also some local tyrants who only buy expensive ones, not the right ones, and never consider the market, which will also cause the works to be inflated. ”
Li Dacheng nodded while listening, the art market is really deep, it's not something that he, a layman, can figure out, the old man sees deeply and thoroughly.
"Old man, you just said that the peony picture just now is not low, so in your heart, how much is that painting worth?" Li Dacheng asked curiously.
Although the works of Master Wu Changshuo have been relatively popular in the art market in recent years, this picture is a work of dealing with others at a glance, not only the artistic level is greatly reduced compared with the representative works of the same period, but even the whole picture has a sense of impetuousness, 1.9 million, slightly higher, and then 3 or 400,000 is about the same. ”
"The artwork of 1.5 million yuan can be auctioned for 1.9 million yuan, and it seems that the auction held by Jiade today is very successful. Li Dacheng whispered, this is what he doesn't want to see.
As an auction house, it is his ability to auction artworks at a high price, beyond the value of the artwork itself, and from the beginning of the auction to the present, the whole scene is calm, and most of the final transaction prices of artworks are real prices, so as far as the auction house itself is concerned, it is not successful at all, at most it is decent, and occasionally there are one or two lots that are a little more than a little money, and it cannot be called two points. The old man said.
"Jiade is one of the famous art auction houses in the country, and the general manager of the auction house is still in charge of presiding over the auction today. It seems that there is no unsuccessful auction, it does not mean that the auction will be successful, as the old man said, it is not the ability of the auction house to bid for the real price, and the auction house has the ability to sell more than the actual price.
"It's very simple, there are those treasures of the nostalgic auction house, no one will exert their strength on these mortal items today, just look at the leisurely appearance of those people present, all of them are focused on participation. The old man's words hit the nail on the head.
"Thank you, old man, for your advice. Li Dacheng thanked him, sat down, and paid attention to the auction in front of him.
After several rounds of auctions, although the lots were finally sold, but the scene was not shocking, even if the old man said before, there was no scramble scene, often after the price rose to a certain number, there was no one to compete, so many people in the audience, so many lots, no one was red-faced, they all looked leisurely, I feel that the people who came to participate in the auction today are not very interested in each work, and they all have the idea of 'if you can shoot it, you can't pull it down'.
Looking at it this way, the previous porcelain auction seemed to be much more lively, after all, there were more than 10 million lots.
Soon, it was Li Dacheng's turn at the table.
"Let's take a look at the next lot, the clear red sandalwood square table, the second is a late sunny item, Soviet-style style, taken from the best cow hair red sandalwood, the main topic is concise and elegant, the lines are straight but not stiff, steady dà square, it is a rare red sandalwood furniture boutique, the reserve price is 500,000. ”
Li Dacheng, who was already drowsy, suddenly became energetic, this is the baby he entrusted to Jiade, for the price of this square table, because he had heard Ye Jin's professional evaluation of the price before, he still knew it, and his play should start from now on.
"Five hundred and twenty thousand. ”
"Five hundred and thirty thousand. ”
The people in the audience began to raise their cards to bid, but the price rose very slowly, although some people kept raising their cards, but the price has remained at a very low level, and Yan zhòng is lower than its value.
"Six hundred and fifty thousand. ”
After a person shouted out the bidding price of 600,000 yuan, Li Dacheng raised the number plate in his hand and shouted loudly, rising by 50,000 yuan at once, full of momentum.
The old man in front turned his head when he heard the voice, glanced at Li Dacheng, with a little surprise in his eyes, obviously he didn't expect that a young man would dare to be interested in a table, and then slowly turned around.
In fact, bidding is also part of today's acting, in order to use this way to express his dissatisfaction with the slow increase in the price of the baby, Li Dacheng wants to let Dina on the stage see that the competition picture she said at the beginning did not appear, and he had to be a childcare to raise the price of the lot he commissioned.
This is definitely a slap in the face for the organizers.
It was a slap in the face that the client was dissatisfied with the organizer.
At the same time, Li Dacheng's eyes stared coldly at Dina on the stage, he wanted to let the other party know that he was very angry now and very dissatisfied with the auction.
Sure enough, Dina on the stage once again looked away and looked at the others in the venue.
"Okay, Mr. One Hundred and Twenty-Three has come out to 650,000 yuan, and any friends continue to bid?" Wu Changyuan said loudly, his eyes kept turning, looking at the venue, looking for the next sign-raiser.
“……”
There was silence in the venue, and no one played their cards.
Li Dacheng was also stunned when he saw it, it was only 150,000 yuan higher than the reserve price, why didn't anyone shout the price?
Nima!
Li Dacheng's heart trembled, he wouldn't be self-defeating, and he slapped his own table, right?
