Chapter 178: Breaking through 10 million
"It's crazy."
At this time, Wang Guan was a little stunned, and only then did he clearly realize the popularity of Zhang Daqian's calligraphy and painting works in the market.
"It's nothing."
Yu Feibai said with a smile: "If it is at the big auction, there will be a masterpiece of Zhang Daqian's later years. That's when you understand what madness is. 10 million per minute, that's normal. ”
"If I have the chance, I will also go to the big auction to feel the atmosphere." Wang Guan said with a smile.
However, Yu Feibai said a little mysteriously: "There must be no problem participating in the big auction, but I'm afraid that after you go once, you won't want to go again in the future." ”
"Why?" Wang Guan was puzzled.
"There's so much good stuff." Yu Feibai sighed: "However, the price of real treasures generally exceeds 10 million, or even more than 100 million. I can't afford it at all, and it's useless to go. Watching from the side, my heart is even more uncomfortable. ”
"Even if you can't afford it, you can feel it up close." Wang Guan said with a smile: "Otherwise, after being taken away by the collector, it must be kept secret." I don't know when I will have the opportunity to see it again. ”
"Yes." Yu Feibai agreed: "Especially those rich people, they have never been able to buy things, and they don't know how much they are resented." Even, some people simply cursed those rich people to go bankrupt immediately and let things circulate in the market again. ”
"It's not so vicious." Wang Guan was taken aback.
You know, there are also a few heavy treasures in his hands, and there is no intention of transferring them at all. If, let others know. Could it be such a curse.
"What do you say?"
Yu Feibai joked: "Now, you should understand why those tycoons especially believe in religion." ”
Between the two talking and laughing, the price of Zhang Daqian's landscape paintings also rose all the way, reaching more than 7 million. Then, the amount of change at a rate. It's slowing down.
After that, no matter how the auctioneer stirs up the atmosphere, but the bidder. It is also inevitable that there will be a sharp decline. In the end, only a handful of people were left competing.
"Seven million three thousand, seven million three hundred thousand for the first time. Is there a higher price......"
The auctioneer kept asking, and after grinding for more than ten seconds, he continued to shout: "Seven million three thousand for the second time, seven million for the second time, if there is no higher price than this, then Zhang Daqian's landscape painting will belong to the gentleman who marked the price." ”
"Seven million 300,000 for the third time, deal!"
After noticing that others had no intention of chasing the price, the auctioneer also waved his hand very neatly and made the final decision.
Took a slight breather. The auctioneer's face suddenly showed an excited smile, and his voice was also very excited, and he shouted loudly: "Gentlemen and ladies, are you ready?" Coming soon. It is the final axis of this auction. The master of bamboo painting in the Northern Song Dynasty, Wen Tongwen and Ke's ink bamboo drawings are authentic. ”
Perhaps, someone also noticed it, in the brochure. There are two photos that seem to be the same, but the verve is very different. That's what I'm trying to say. ”
The auctioneer sold the pass, only to excitedly reveal: "Maybe." Someone has already guessed the truth. That's right, this picture of Wentong ink and bamboo is the legendary picture-in-picture. In ancient times, it was extremely ingenious to put a layer of false pictures on the top of the authentic handiwork. For hundreds of years, no one noticed it at all......"
"What!"
"It can't be hype, is it?"
"I think it might be a gimmick!"
All of a sudden, everyone at the auction was like boiling water, boiling.
"Looks like people don't believe it." Wang Guan was a little worried.
"Rest assured, this is a normal reaction." Yu Feibai said softly: "Presumably, Zheng Yaxuan should also think that if there is such a situation, a plan must be arranged." ”
"Please be quiet."
At this moment, Zhao Qian stepped onto the rostrum again and said with a smile: "We are Zheng Yaxuan, reputation first, and we will never do anything that destroys our future." We have evidence for this matter......"
While speaking, on the big screen, photos of the two original drawings of Wen Tong Mozhu began to appear, one true and one false. Among them, including the paper of the drawing, penmanship, bell print, etc., a series of testing and identification reports.
When the screen video was played, Zhao Qian smiled confidently: "At this time, the framing master who uncovered the picture-in-picture and reframed the ink and bamboo drawings is none other than Huang Lao." If you don't believe it, you can ask him for advice. In addition, I have here a statement from Huang Lao. ”
At the suggestion of Zhao Qian, the staff projected the statement written by Huang Lao on the big screen.
"Huang Lao is highly respected, and he will never lie and deceive people."
"However, the picture-in-picture is a bit mysterious, and people dare not believe it."
"I don't know the bottom of my heart, I don't think it's better to shoot."
Although Zhao Qian made enough promises, everyone still doubted it.
Wang Guan heard it next to him and couldn't help frowning. After all, the thing is his, if he can't shoot it, it is not only Zheng Yaxuan who will lose face, but he will not be able to hang it on his face.
"Don't worry, keep reading." Yu Feibai whispered: "Anyway, even if the Mozhu picture is auctioned, according to the agreement signed between you and Zheng Yaxuan, there are still eight million to take, what are you afraid of." ”
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I'm unhappy."
Wang Guan said softly: "It's obviously a rare treasure, but they don't know the goods, and they're blind." ”
"Blind or not, we'll find out later." Yu Feibai said.
At the same time, a person suddenly stood up and said, "Manager Zhao, for the sake of prudence, can you also let us take a look at the real thing." ”
"No problem."
Zhao Qian hesitated, then nodded and agreed.
Subsequently, seven or eight people walked up to the rostrum, and under the vigilant gaze of a group of security guards, they put on white gloves, took out magnifying glasses, and carefully observed the authentic ink and bamboo drawings. After more than ten minutes, after reading it, these people frowned and thought hard, shaking their heads from time to time, and they didn't seem to be very optimistic.
Seeing this situation has further exacerbated the suspicions of others. They all said that it was best not to take pictures, so as not to suffer losses. However, Zhao Qian was very calm, and after putting away the ink and bamboo drawings, he immediately signaled to the auctioneer that he could start presiding over the auction.
"The Northern Song Dynasty is the same as the ink bamboo map. The starting price is $6,000,000, with no limit on the lowest bid. ”
The auctioneer has a higher psychological tolerance and simply ignores the doubts of the crowd. He said directly: "Now, you can bid freely." ”
The sound fell, and there was a cacophony underneath. It also gradually quieted down. However, no one picked up the instrument and quoted. On the electronic display, it was still dark, and no amount was visible.
This eerie silence passed for a full minute.
During this period, Wang Guan's heart was a little heavy, and his expression was definitely not very good-looking.
"Don't worry."
At this time, Yu Feibai whispered: "This is the little ...... they played."
"Tick!"
Suddenly, there was an electric sound. In an instant, the numbers on the electronic display. It's like stock exchange data, constantly emerging, and then constantly being squeezed out.
"Look, I'm right." Yu Feibai snickered: "If you are really not optimistic, you won't show it at all." Only those. Those who are already planning to make a move will pretend to make their competitors relax their vigilance. ”
"These cunning guys are really profiteers." Wang Guan breathed a sigh of relief, but also a little embarrassed.
"Just be happy." Yu Feibai looked up and said with a smile, "Now." The price has already exceeded eight million. I estimate that it will definitely exceed 10 million in the end. ”
"What you said, if it's not enough, you can make up the balance." Wang Guan was in a good mood and also made a joke.
"I think you're more ruthless than a profiteer." Yu Feibai rolled his eyes.
"Eight million seven hundred and eighty thousand, eight million eight hundred and eighty thousand, eight million ......
While the two were talking, the auctioneer's mouth couldn't stop, and the latest bids burst out one after another. Soon, the price naturally broke through 9 million and moved towards the 10 million mark.
"Nine million three hundred and eighty thousand, nine million three hundred and eighty thousand, and is there anything higher...... Nine million four hundred and fifty thousand, nine million four hundred and fifty thousand, and now nine million ...... "
At this time, sitting in the seat, hearing the auctioneer's repeated and verbose offers, Wang Guan felt that it was so pleasant to the ear, as if it was a natural sound, and he never got tired of listening to it.
“…… Ninety-ninety-eight, ninety-nine million, ninety-nine million. ”
At the same time, the auctioneer shouted even harder, and it was almost 10 million points, which made him more excited and constantly agitated.
"Tick!"
There was a slight sound, and the amount on the display screen changed, and a row of amounts appeared. The first digit is one, followed by seven zeros.
"Ten million!" The auctioneer roared a few times, and said hoarsely: "Ten million, now it's 10 million yuan, isn't there a higher price than this?" ”
"Tonight, you're going to have a treat."
Yu Feibai said jealously: "If it is in the capital, I will definitely let you set up a table full of Han people." ”
"Hehe, now we are in Shudu." Wang Guan smiled brightly, and said with a happy eyebrow: "If you want, I can invite you to eat a spicy tofu feast." ”
"Get out!" Yu Feibai said angrily: "I know that I can't eat spicy food." ”
In addition to laughing, Wang Guan is also paying attention to the auction price, wanting to know how much the final transaction amount will be.
At this time, after the price has passed 10 million, the increase in the amount is smaller, and the speed is getting slower and slower. In the end, it reached more than 10.5 million, and then it began to stagnate.
"Almost, that's the price."
Yu Feibai analyzed softly: "Now, it can be seen that there are only three people competing. In the end, it depends on who is more patient or decisive. If someone can ruthlessly add a high price, it shows the determination to win. Then, most likely it will be the ultimate winner. ”
"Tick!"
Before the words fell, a high price appeared on the electronic screen.
"Eleven million, eleven million......"
After a period of roaring, the auctioneer's voice also became low, but he still shouted hard: "Eleven million for the first time, is there no higher price?" Eleven million second ......"
After shouting for more than ten seconds, the amount has not changed, and the auctioneer decisively raised the mallet high, and it was about to fall heavily. However, at this moment, the electronic screen shook again. (To be continued) RQ
