Chapter 281 and 282 Yuan Qinghua and Jade Auction

Chapter 281 and 282 Yuan blue and white and jadeite auctions

After finishing the preview, Li Yang told Zheng Kaida and them that he was going to Hong Kong.

Speaking of which, Li Yang is already a director of a large auction company, but he has not really participated in a formal large-scale auction.

It's a shame to say, but it's true.

This time, I could have had a good feel at the auction held by my own auction company, but because of He Lao's request, I had to give up it temporarily, but fortunately, I went to Hong Kong to participate in the auction, and it was a bigger auction, and Li Yang had no regrets about this.

Li Yang couldn't stay to participate in his own auction, Zheng Kaida and Sima Lin were a little regretful, most of the auction items in their auction this time were Li Yang's, and it can also be said that the success of this auction was all due to Li Yang.

After learning that it was He Lao's matter, the two immediately had no opinions, and both said that even if Li Yang was not there, there would be no problems in the auction on their side, and they would definitely auction all Li Yang's jadeite raw materials at a satisfactory price.

After dealing with the matter here, Li Yang had nothing to do, and drove to Hong Kong with Liu Gang.

Wu Xiaoli is the most unhappy person for Li Yang to leave, Liu Gang did not help her get a passport, this time I went to Hong Kong to help He Lao buy things, not to play, Liu Gang did not dare to make an assertion, his task was to protect Li Yang.

Wu Xiaoli can only go through the formalities by herself, even if her father is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, if she wants to apply for a Hong Kong and Macao pass, she has to wait for two days, and she has to use the fastest express delivery to get it, and it is obviously impossible to enter Hong Kong with Li Yang.

Guangzhou is still very close to Hong Kong, closer than Mingyang to Zhengzhou, and the two arrived at the Shenzhen Bay Port after more than two hours. What Li Yang didn't expect was that Liu Gang also went through customs clearance procedures for his Volvo, and the people at the port gave them a temporary China-Hong Kong license plate, and the two drove directly into Hong Kong.

Seeing this scene, Li Yang sighed very much, it is very convenient to have Liu Gang to follow everything.

Li Yang's arrival in Hong Kong was the day they held the auction, but unfortunately the auction was held in the evening, otherwise they could really wait for the auction to end before coming to Hong Kong, so that they could see their own jadeite raw materials being contested.

With the experience of Nanyang auction, Li Yang believes that there will be many people bidding for those good raw materials, and they will eventually be auctioned at sky-high prices.

The time to Hong Kong is in the afternoon, all the way Li Yang looked out the window curiously, this city that has been seen countless times on TV, Li Yang is still the first time to come, the high-rise buildings outside the window are completely different from Li Yang's imagination.

When he arrived in Wan Chai, Li Yang finally saw something that appeared on the screen.

After Liu Gang drove the car to his destination, Li Yang saw the most familiar building, which appears in almost every modern Hong Kong film, the seaside building that resembles a giant turtle - the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center.

Liu Gang booked a hotel before coming, the hotel is here in the convention and exhibition center, tomorrow's preview, and the subsequent auction are held here, it is very convenient to live here.

Liu Gang booked a suite, and after entering the room, Liu Gang went out by himself, leaving Li Yang to rest here alone.

The five-star hotel in Hong Kong is still very comfortable, feeling this comfort Li Yang sighed again, half a year ago, he never thought that his life would have such a big change, all of this was brought about by the inexplicable black line in the body.

Lying on the bed, Li Yang suddenly activated his special ability, and he still doesn't know what these mysterious black lines in his body are.

Under the three-dimensional picture, the black lines in Li Yang's arms and palms are very clear, the black lines connecting the brain in the two arms are still so long, and the ten small forked lines in the palms are still so thin.

Li Yang focused his attention on these black lines, trying to see if he could control them, but in the end he shook his head helplessly, he didn't have any awareness of these black lines, and it was purely a fantasy to control them.

It didn't take long for Liu Gang to come back, bringing two invitations and two color books, which had an introduction to the auction and pictures of the auction items.

Li Yang immediately took a booklet, sat on the sofa and read it.

Li Yang of Sotheby's auction company has heard of it more than once, this is a multinational company, and its status in China is similar to that of Ann's in the jewelry industry, and it is a large auction company that belongs to one and the other, and it is definitely not comparable to Li Yang's newly established auction company.

In addition to the fixed spring and autumn auctions, the big auction companies will also auction some additional auctions from time to time, such as Li Yang's jadeite special auction this time.

Sotheby's was divided into two art auctions alone, namely the Southeast Asian Modern and Contemporary Art and Chinese Contemporary Art auctions, in addition to the Jade Jewelry Auction and the Chinese Porcelain Auction.

In this way, Sotheby's has a total of four auctions, which is worthy of being a veteran auction company, and their scale is what Zheng Kaida cannot do now, and it is also Zheng Kaida's goal in the future.

The preview will be held tomorrow, and the auction will start the day after tomorrow, Sotheby's is a well-established auction company, there is no need for a gap between the preview and the auction, and many of the people who attend the auction are regular customers and are familiar with the rules of their company.

The four auctions were held for two days, and the first day was an auction of modern art, and Li Yang could go or not. The next day is the focus, at 10 o'clock in the morning is the auction of jade jewelry, in the afternoon is the auction of Chinese porcelain, the Yuan blue and white porcelain that He Lao fancied, in the afternoon.

"Yuan Qinghua"

Looking at the photo of the 'Jinxiang Pavilion' Yuan Qinghua Figure Jar on the booklet, Li Yang sighed heavily. Today's Li Yang is not like he didn't understand anything before, he has read so many precious materials and added a lot of antique knowledge, and he understands the meaning of the three words Yuan Qinghua very well.

For a long time, the origin of Yuan Qinghua was a mystery.

Chinese ceramics, if there are new varieties of birth, are clear identity, clear context, only Yuan Qinghua has no childhood, no childhood, no youth, when the world sees it is already a young man in his prime, so that many people doubt its origin.

The main reason is that in the Ming and Qing dynasties with a history of more than 500 years, there has been no record of the Yuan blue and white porcelain, and it is traditionally believed that the blue and white porcelain was created and burned during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and the most favorable evidence is the blue and white material brought back by Zheng He to the West.

Even in the Republic of China, the Chinese people still believe that blue and white porcelain began in the Ming Dynasty, and it was not until the fifties of the last century that the American Alexander first demonstrated the existence of Yuan blue and white porcelain.

Since then, Yuan Qinghua has slowly entered the field of vision of collectors.

So far, there are only more than 300 pieces of Yuan Qinghua recognized by the academic community in the world, and there are more than 100 pieces in China's collection, most of which are in museums around the world, and there are very few in the market. In 2005, a large jar of Yuan Qinghua 'Guiguzi Descending the Mountain' was auctioned for a sky-high price of 230 million yuan in London, England, which instantly made Yuan Qinghua a darling in the eyes of everyone and a symbol of wealth and status.

To this day, there are still many people in the folk who claim to have Yuan Qinghua in their hands, but whether it is true or false requires careful research.

Looking at the photos on the color album, Li Yang was a little red-eyed, such a good collection of any person who likes to collect will probably be moved when he sees it, of course, whether he can collect it depends on his personal ability.

He Lao fancy this piece of Yuan blue and white, painted on it is Wang Zhongwen's famous miscellaneous drama "Meng Yuemei writes hatred of Jinxiang Pavilion", the painting is very beautiful, the color is also very bright, not worse than the official kiln blue and white porcelain in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

In the Yuan blue and white flowers, the most precious is the porcelain painted with the image of the figure, each piece belongs to the top national treasure, is the treasure of the Yuan blue and white treasures, if it is not for He Lao has taken a fancy to this Yuan blue and white character jar, Li Yang wants to take a picture of this top national treasure and go back to appreciate it slowly.

Closing the color book, Li Yang slowly breathed a sigh of relief, this Yuan blue and white Li Yang is determined to win, if you want to bid at the auction, you also need to know more about this auction item, and it is far from enough to rely on the introduction on the color book.

As early as the day before yesterday, after receiving a call from He Lao, Li Yang began to look for information about this piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain, but unfortunately there are not many things that can be found, and what he knows is very limited.

He Lao didn't provide much help to Li Yang, He Lao learned more than Li Yang, but there was no direct help for him to participate in the auction, and Li Yang could only rely on himself in the auction.

After resting in the hotel for a while, the sky slowly darkened, and looking out of the window, the neon signs that had been lit up looked particularly dazzling.

"Brother Li, should we let the waiter bring the food in, or should we go out to eat by ourselves?"

Liu Gang walked over, Li Yang looked up at the window, only to find that the sky outside had completely darkened, he would have been concentrating on reading the color book, he didn't expect time to pass so quickly.

"What time is it?"

"It's almost half past seven"

"It's half past seven, Brother Zheng's auction is about to start, let's go out to eat"

Li Yang stood up, stiffened his waist, and put this matter of Yuan Qinghua behind him for the time being. Before coming, Sima Linke told Li Yang that Hong Kong's food is very good, and if it weren't for the overlap between their auction and Hong Kong's auction this time, he would have wanted to accompany Li Yang to Hong Kong and taste Hong Kong's food again.

Near the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, there is a good restaurant, which is very famous in Hong Kong, and was specially mentioned by Sima Lin before coming, and it didn't go far before Li Yang found this Western-style restaurant called 'Victoria', and immediately walked in with Liu Gang.

"Sir, do you have a reservation?"

As soon as he entered the restaurant, a very beautiful waiter came up and smiled at Li Yang and bent over, Li Yang looked around and replied honestly: "No"

"Yes, sir, please come with me"

The waiter made a gesture, Li Yang and Liu Gang followed her forward, Li Yang sighed as he walked, the high-end restaurant is good, the environment is so good, so many people who are dining, they can't hear any noise.

Sima Lin said to Li Yang that the steak and snails here are good, Li Yang and Liu Gang ordered one each, and asked for a bottle of red wine. Do you follow the local customs, it looks weird not to drink some red wine when you enter a western restaurant, but the price on the menu also made Li Yang shake his head secretly, and this meal will eat his previous salary for several months.

It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.

Li Yang has been with Zheng Kaida and Sima Lin during this time, and it is the best to eat and live every day, and this luxurious life is almost used to it, and it is not like at the beginning when he was a little uncomfortable, but now Li Yang has no psychological burden when he goes in and out of this kind of high-end place.

When Li Yang was lamenting here, the auction in Guangzhou officially began.

Zhu Lei and Li Can are busy, more than 100 people will participate in this auction, and an on-site telephone station has been set up, so that some people who don't have time to come can bid remotely by phone.

However, the most eye-catching thing at the scene was An Wenjun and Shao Yuhua, two young people, who basically knew the relationship between the two companies. There are so many high-end jadeite raw materials this time, and there will definitely be a battle between the two major companies, and a few people who join in the fun are stretching their necks and waiting to watch the show.

The first auction item is Wu Xiaoli's small piece of apple green ice jade, the first auction item can not be too bad, but the price can not be too high, Wu Xiaoli's ice seed is the most suitable, in order to play momentum, I believe that everyone's bid for this small piece of ice will not be too low.

In the end, Wu Xiaoli's small piece of ice was sold at a price of 1.2 million, which can be said to be not low, and the most that can be made into jewelry is only sold at this price, and it is almost impossible to make money, and maybe you will have to pay some processing fees.

It was someone from Lao Fengxiang Jewelry Company who took the jadeite, and both Ann's and Shaw's had bids in the first round, but they didn't stumble on this piece of jadeite.

The second auction is Zhang Wei's gold silk jadeite, this raw material is in good condition, the block is much more than the ice just now, the reserve price was scrambling by many jewelry companies to bid, and Zhang Weixiao's mouth when he came to the auction site couldn't close.

The next thing to be auctioned is a piece of ice jadeite, Li Yang unraveled the jadeite raw material on the No. 605 wool material in the Mingbiao auction, which made Shao Yuqiang regret a lot of time.

The large ice species were divided into three pieces, each weighing several kilograms, and now only one of them is being auctioned.

"Now the auction is the ice raw material, weighing 5.76 kilograms, oval-shaped, whether it is to make bracelets or other jewelry is the most economical, the reserve price is 5 million, and the minimum is 100,000 each time."

As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone below raised the sign again and again, and from time to time someone raised the price, and soon the price of this piece of wool was increased to nine million.

"Twenty million"

Shao Yuhua suddenly spoke, and suddenly increased from nine million to twenty million, and all the people present instantly became silent. I've seen a price increase, but I've never seen a price increase as hard as him, which has more than doubled all of a sudden, and the price offered is directly four times higher than the reserve price.

"Twenty million, this gentleman has come out of twenty million, is there anything higher than him, if not, today's ice seed raw materials weighing more than ten catties are this gentleman's"

The auctioneer shouted with a hammer, looking very excited.

Zheng Kaida was also very excited, the two things auctioned before were worth one or two million, and as soon as this ice seed came up, it didn't take much time to reach twenty million, and in an auction, there were not many things that could appear at a high price of twenty million.

This is just the beginning, there are two pieces of ice jadeite that are similar to this one, and there are also glass jadeite raw materials with higher value, there is absolutely no problem with today's auction exceeding 100 million yuan, and this auction will also become the real opening red of their Lida auction.

An Wenjun hesitated, his psychological price of this ice jade was eighteen million, and eighteen million was not very profitable, but she didn't expect that before she could bid, Shao Yuhua actually directly gave a price that exceeded her psychological price, which made An Wenjun a little overwhelmed.

"Twenty million, this piece of jade belongs to Mr. 16"

The auctioneer slammed the hammer, An Wenjun's eyes suddenly lit up, he immediately sat up straight, and glanced back at Shao Yuhua fiercely, No. 16 is Shao Yuhua's license number.

Shao Yuhua laughed, sat on the chair with his arms crossed, and showed a little smugness.

An Wenjun now understands that Shao Yuhua shouted a high price to deal with her deliberately, and today Shao Brothers has no intention of making money to bring back these wool.

Shao Yuhua even took advantage of An Wenjun's failure to figure it out, and suddenly took down a piece of ice jade, and the Shaw family would also lose some money on this jadeite. But if it is added little by little, the Shaw Brothers may not lose a little in the end, even if they finally take down this piece of wool, An Wenjun believes that it is definitely not the price of 20 million.

"Hmph"

An Wenjun snorted angrily, not looking at Shao Yuhua, she has a lot of power in her hands to bid for jade this time, even if she loses money and takes it down, it doesn't matter, the first task is to snipe Shaw Brothers, it's a pity that she lost for a while as soon as she fought and was robbed of a piece of ice seed raw materials by Shaw Brothers.

The next auction was a piece of Sima Lin's jadeite, this time An Wenjun came up and showed an aggressive posture, Shao Yuhua kept holding his arms and smiling, but he didn't say a word.

In the end, Sima Lin's gold wire was taken down by An's at a high price, which made many other jewelry companies a little dissatisfied.

They know that the two raw materials of ice and glass, An's and Shaw Brothers will definitely have big competition, in addition to the top ten large companies, many companies have given up the competition for this raw material, and they have aimed at other high-end raw materials, but they didn't expect that An's is so fierce about these raw materials, and they have to rob them if they lose money.

Invisibly, the people in these jewelry companies regard Ann as their biggest enemy.

The few pieces of jade below, An Wenjun had provocative actions, but Shao Yuhua never responded, and sat there quietly, not even bidding once.

This made An Wenjun very suspicious, but unfortunately she didn't know, and repeatedly offered high prices for mid-to-high-end jadeite, which made many other jewelry companies dissatisfied with An's.

The auctioneer changed the picture, and the ice jadeite appeared on the big screen again, and those top-ranked companies were excited when they saw such jadeite.

"The following piece of jadeite is the same piece of wool as the one that was auctioned at a high price of 20 million just now, weighing 6.01 kilograms, with a reserve price of 5.5 million, and a minimum of 100,000 ...... each time."

"Ten Million"

Before the auctioneer's voice fell, An Wenjun made a bid, and the general mid-to-high-end jadeite was not auctioned, and the company could still hold on, but An Wenjun was definitely unwilling to let go of such a high-end jadeite as the ice species.

Especially the large ice species, which has long been won by the An family, but An Wenjun had a bad start, and was snatched away by the Shaw family when she came up, and she was annoyed in her heart at the moment, so she doubled the reserve price when she came up.

At the same time, An Wenjun's heart was also sneering, Shao Yuhua didn't want to use the method just now, even if he added it to 20 million, An Wenjun would continue to bid.

"Eleven Million"

It was not Shao Yuhua who made the bid, but people from other jewelry companies, and they are also companies with great strength, although they are not as good as An's and Shaw's, but they are not much worse.

"Twelve Million"

Someone directly added a million, An Wenjun glanced at Shao Yuhua suspiciously, Shao Yuhua was still sitting there with his arms crossed, and he didn't look anxious at all.

"12,100,000"

Someone directly raised the card, and then someone continued to raise the card, and after a while, the price of this ice seed broke through 14 million, approaching the price of 15 million.

This price is not low, but it is not as good as the price of 20 million just now, this piece of jadeite is heavier than the one just now, everyone understands that fifteen million is definitely not its final result.

Sure enough, when it was just 15 million, An Wenjun made another bid, this time directly adding 3 million, quoting a high price of 18 million.

As soon as this price came out, several companies that were very competitive just now paused, and the price stopped there temporarily.

However, these companies also had a little annoyance with An Wenjun, and unconsciously, half of the people in the auction had opinions on An Wenjun, which An Wenjun definitely didn't expect before.

"Twenty million"

Shao Yuhua finally raised his card, and the people of other jewelry companies were silent, 20 million is the price of losing money, their days are very tight, and they are not like An's and Shaw Brothers are competing desperately, and they don't want to lose so much to buy these jade raw materials.

"Two Thousand and a Half Million"

An Wenjun raised his card and added 500,000, and now An Wenjun doesn't dare to add so much at once, the more he adds, the more he loses.

"Hehe, twenty-five million" Shao Yuhua laughed, held up the sign, and quoted a shocking price.

25 million, if 20 million is only a little lost, then 25 million is equivalent to more than 5 million, this is not a small amount, no matter how big the Shaw Brothers is, they can't take money to pay it like this.

An Wenjun was a little hesitant, she could accept the loss, but she couldn't stand the loss too much, and the loss of more than five million yuan for a piece of ice wool was indeed a bit big.

Glancing back at Shao Yuhua, An Wenjun immediately found that Shao Yuhua had a little triumphant smile on her face, and suddenly, she remembered what An Zhicheng said to her before:

"Wenjun, in this jadeite raw material auction, don't think about making money for the things you get, protect the market, and don't let Shaw get these raw materials is the most important thing for us."

Thinking of this, An Wenjun immediately showed a firm look, and immediately raised the sign before the auctioneer dropped the hammer.

"Two five million and one hundred thousand, the young lady of No. 8 bid two five million and one hundred thousand, and now it is two five million and one hundred thousand, is there a higher price? If not, this six-kilogram piece of ice seed raw material will have to be associated with this young lady."

The auctioneer immediately shouted, and his job was to stir up the atmosphere and fetch a higher price for the lot.

After An Wenjun raised the card, she glanced at Shao Yuhua proudly, but she didn't find any loss on Shao Yuhua's face, but felt that Shao Yuhua had that kind of treacherous smile that succeeded in his tricks.

"Not good"

An Wenjun's heart sank, and then Shao Yuhua did not increase the price, and this ice jade, which was worth more than five million yuan above itself, finally fell into the hands of An Shi.

At this time, An Wenjun finally understood that Shao Yuhua knew that she would continue to compete for this piece of jadeite, so she simply asked for a price of five million that was too high at once, so that An Shi would pay more.

In other words, Shao Yuhua didn't really want to bid for this wool from the beginning, it was not so easy to grab something from An's hands, his purpose was to let An's have some more losses, and the greater An's losses, the more beneficial it would be to them Shao's.

An Wenjun is very smart, her guess is similar to the truth, Shao Yuhua did bury a pit for her this time, the purpose is to consume more funds in An Wenjun's hands, and at the same time make An Wenjun's bidding below worried, and he doesn't dare to fight so hard.

In this round of competition, An Wenjun seemed to win, but in fact she was the one who lost.

An Wenjun was born in a wealthy family, and has high education and ability, but in the complex struggle of intrigue, Shao Yuhua is obviously not as good as Shao Yuhua, who is nearly ten years older than An Wenjun, and is the vice president of Shaw Brothers with real power, and his scheming is much heavier than her.

The results of the two confrontations made An Wenjun not so confident, and he was also deeply jealous of Shao Yuhua.

Later, Sima Lin, who was standing there watching the auction process, was very satisfied and said to Zheng Kaida: "Lao Zheng, it seems that the effect is very good, the auction price of these jadeites is much higher than we expected."

Zheng Kaida's face immediately showed a sense of pride, and he smiled: "That's, will my idea be bad?" Now it's just the beginning, wait and see, the competition between Ann's and Shaw Brothers will become more and more fierce in the future. The Shaw Brothers gave up a piece of ice and pitted the Anns, but I'm afraid that the following ones won't give up, the more raw materials Ann's has, the more laborious they will be in the future."

Zheng Kaida's analysis is very good, before the auction is carried out, he carefully analyzed the competition between the Shaw Brothers and the An Family, so he scattered the jadeite for auction, the greater the competition, the more beneficial it will be to Zheng Kaida and them.

With Li Yang's performance, Zheng Kaida is not afraid that they will not cooperate with their own company, in this case, it is better to create more profits for Li Yang, anyway, these big companies have tens of billions of assets, and they can afford to lose this money.
