A few people chatted about the time of having a pot of tea, and the staff came over to remind them that it was time for the on-site calligraphy and painting auction.

The group walked to the auction site, because it was a personal exhibition, the bidding link was relatively simple, and after introducing the artists of the works in this exhibition, the host of the exhibition began to preside.

The first work is by Long Yifeng, which is mainly based on the golden yellow of autumn, showing the scene of an old man picking ears of grain in the field after the autumn harvest is completed. This work basically restores the scene of Yumatang Village, Long Yifeng's hometown. There is an old man in the village, and every year during the autumn harvest, he will go to the field to collect ears of grain after the people have finished harvesting the grain.

Originally, this phenomenon was very common, because there was a shortage of food in the countryside, and everyone cherished it, so after harvesting the grain, they would go everywhere to pick it up. However, with the rise of the tide of migrant workers, many working people went out, and the rural economy began to improve, many people will not pick up ears of grain on the ground, and some threshing machines use semi-automatic threshing machines, and the ears of grain fall much more than traditional harvesting methods. There is an old man in Yumatang, who is over 70 years old and still insists on going to the geography to pick up ears of grain after the autumn harvest every year.

Long Yifeng was deeply impressed when he saw the old man picking up ears of grain, so he created this painting. After the painting, he was also very satisfied with the painting.

After the host introduced the background and appreciation of the work, he directly started bidding: "Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Long Yifeng's piece is very collectible, don't miss the opportunity." According to the rules of this auction, there is no reserve price for the works in this auction, please start bidding. ”

It can be said that the customers who stayed on the site were basically customers with clear intentions, so someone soon offered 6,000 yuan. At the instigation of the host, there were people bidding again.

"The gentleman in position 6,500 bids, is there a higher bid than that gentleman? This work will definitely continue to appreciate with the growth of Mr. Long Yifeng, and maybe there will be a surprise after the exhibition, that's for sure. Do you have any friends who are willing to pay a higher price? ”

“7000”

“7500”

“8000”

“8500！”

In the end, the work was successfully auctioned by a middle-aged man with glasses for 8,500 yuan.

As the first auction work, the bid was 8,500 yuan at once, which surprised the participants present.

Bidding for the second work begins.

This work looks a little more atmospheric than the first one, mainly with Chaotian Mountain Waterfall as the background, plus elements of Chinese painting. The work was bid for 8,000 yuan at the beginning.

After the first round of bidding, the participants basically have a certain understanding, and their emotions have begun to be mobilized. Bidding is also becoming more intense.

8500

9000

9500

10000

......

13500! Finally, the work was bought by the buyer.

The third dress work is the wedding dress of the Miao girl, and after fierce competition, it was finally sold for 16,000 yuan!

Long Yifeng found that the works auctioned on the spot were almost all made in the same period, but the prices sold were generally higher than the previous favorite works, and many dealers and collectors were together at the same time, judging by their own intuition and vision, as long as they felt that the works had a certain appreciation space and collection value, they would try their best to bid. Those who play calligraphy and painting are mostly rich masters, and among them there are inevitably some people who are indiscriminate and vassal, who don't know anything except money, and when they see others bidding lively, they also follow suit, and the price of their works will rise.

Xiao Yi quietly told Long Yifeng that according to the plan, he was supposed to bid for it at one time today. However, due to the sudden appearance of Mr. Li, Mr. Liu specially instructed just now to reserve some works for auction in the next few days. In order to play a better role in promoting, Mr. Liu decided to add a piece of Long Yifeng's work this time, if it can get good results today, there should be a new breakthrough in the next few days.

Sure enough, after bidding for the fifth work, the host began to speak: "Due to time constraints, let's directly bid for the last work of the day." However, in order to make up for everyone's regrets, we have specially prepared a meticulous work that has been tempered by Mr. Long Yifeng. ”

This work is made by Long Yifeng recently, he is based on the content of ancient texts, and combined with the scenery under the mountain of Brahma Pure Land, a famous Buddhist cultural mountain in Tongren City, and a small poem is added to it, which he himself is very satisfied with and loves. Originally, he didn't plan to bring it to Beiping, but he thought that since it was his first time participating in an art exhibition, if he didn't come up with some good things, he really couldn't help the audience, and more importantly, he would lose face.

In the process of creation, he completely runs the Chiyou Codex, sharpens the pen, and integrates a certain martial arts cultivation and realm into it, and those unique cultivation artistic conceptions themselves bring profound connotation and ineffable charm to the works.

As soon as the work was unfolded, Li Lao, who had been sitting upright, was shocked, and looked at the work seriously for a while before saying to Long Yifeng: "This should be the epiphany of Yifeng's little friend!"

The epiphany shows that the work itself is many levels higher than the regular works. Li Lao's words are not just words, he is really interested in the work, and he even made an exception to participate in the auction. You know, in the first five works, he sat motionless, purely admiring.

Seeing that everyone like Li Lao bid for the auction, the surrounding art dealers, collectors and entrepreneurs who decorated B couldn't bear it anymore and raised their hands to bid. The price of the work starts from 10,000 yuan and continues to more than 30,000 yuan, and some people continue to raise their hands.

During this period, Li Lao raised his hand to bid unhurriedly, giving great confidence and encouragement to the people present who participated in the bidding, and also drove a large number of people to bid.

One of them, who wore gold-rimmed glasses and was called Mr. Ma by Mr. Liu, had been raising his hand frequently, and the price was a lot higher than the first price every time. Seeing that Li Lao was so attentive to the work, he raised his hand again:

"36,500 yuan!" the host once again quoted the latest price.

"37,000 yuan!"

......

Now, there is no need for the host to instigate, as long as the bidders on the scene see someone raise their hand, others also bid. The scene was intense and lively, and sometimes, the host couldn't even count them.

I don't know if it's out of love for the work itself, or to help Long Yifeng, Li Lao, who was sitting in the VIP seat, raised his hand again when the price rose to 48,500 yuan, and said:

"The value of this work should have a lot of potential for collection. If you take into account Mr. Xiaolong's own growth space, it is estimated that it will definitely hit a new high in less than ten years, so it is worth collecting. ”

The voice was not loud, as if he was chatting with Mr. Liu next to him, but he was heard clearly by most of the people present, especially Mr. Ma, who was not far from him. Hearing Li Lao's evaluation, he excitedly shouted out a price:

"68,000 yuan! I'll pay 68,000 yuan!"

The host immediately seized the opportunity: "This friend on the 8th gave a price of 68,000 thousand yuan! Let's polish your eyes and seize the rare opportunity. Then he looked at the scene and began to shout, "68,000 yuan for the first time, 68,000 yuan for the first time, is there anyone who offers a higher price?"

The people who participated in the auction on the spot obviously hesitated, and the guy suddenly raised the price so much, and he was determined to get it at a glance, even if he raised his hand, he might not be able to buy it. When everyone was hesitating, Li Lao asked his granddaughter to raise her hand and shout the price of 70,000 yuan.

At this time, everyone began to commotion.

This kind of personal commercial art exhibition, since it can attract the attention of a master like Li Lao, is already remarkable in itself. Now, he is so enthusiastic about this work, and he looks like he is determined to get it, how can he not make collectors commotion?

Those who were hesitating at first began to boldly shout the price again.

80,000 ...... 90,000 ..... Lakh!......

Long Yifeng was surprised, he didn't expect that his work could be auctioned for more than 100,000 yuan, and some people kept bidding. How much does it cost to create a work? For a painter, all you need is inspiration and paint.

Of course, pigments are valuable and inexpensive, but works that have been inspired by artists can be priceless.

In the end, the work was obtained by Mr. Ma, who was determined to win it for 160,000 yuan. Although everyone has a trace of regret, they can't make up their minds in their hearts, if it weren't for Li Lao who has been following the bidding, it is estimated that many people will start to stop within 100,000. When Li Lao stopped bidding at more than 140,000 yuan, some people also followed silently and did not bargain.

However, a few people who refused to admit defeat continued to bid with Mr. Ma, but they were finally defeated.

Faced with the hot scene of the day, as well as the presence of Li Lao. Mr. Liu and his planning team effectively grasped the news breaking point and used their connections to strengthen their research. In the evening of the same day, the news channel of Beiping Television Station, Beiping Evening News, Beiping Metropolis Daily, and Jiaotong Evening News all reported on the situation of the exhibition in a large way, with pictures and texts, focusing on Li Lao's attendance, adding paintings, participating in the auction, etc., and also attached a large number of pictures, some of which even directly took it as a headline.

The right time, place and people got together, and all of a sudden the originally small art exhibition became popular!
