Chapter 210: The Most Expensive Shrimp in the World
The shrimp painted by Qin Shi saw that no one was bidding and was about to be unauctioned, but at this time, Liu Bowen was bidding, and it seemed that although it helped Qin Shi avoid the embarrassment of unsuccessful auction, it gave Qin Shi a greater embarrassment.
Each collection has a three-minute bidding time, and Qin Shi's painting was unattended for the first two minutes and fifty seconds of these three minutes, which is clearly the end of the unsuccessful auction, but Liu Bowen's bid in this final time period is easy to give people the feeling of helping Qin Shi avoid unsuccessful auctions.
But in this case, it is inevitable that people will feel that Qin Shi is really a little cheap, and no one will take pictures of the donated collections, so they can only be photographed by friendship.
In addition, Liu Bowen's bid is also a bit "exquisite".
At the beginning of the auction, Zhang Lin informed everyone of the rules of the auction, and the price increase should not be less than 10,000 Huaxia coins each time, and the reserve price of Qin Shi's "Shrimp" was 5,000, and Liu Bowen's bid was 15,000, which was exactly the minimum amount of the price increase.
You must know that in the previous auction, the minimum price increase was 50,000, and the highest time was even a huge increase of 500,000 at one time, so Liu Bowen added 10,000 to the reserve price, which inevitably had a sense of deliberately humiliating Qin Shi.
Liu Bowen's hand that raised the sign fell again, and his eyes inadvertently glanced at Qin Shi, and a trace of contempt crossed his eyes.
"I want to buy my painting for fifteen thousand, naΓ―ve."
Qin Shi naturally knew Liu Bowen's intention to bid, so he also felt a little disgusted with Liu Bowen in his heart, he knew the value of his own picture, although he didn't dare to say that it was a stroke of genius, but it was definitely more than this price of fifteen thousand.
If someone else bids fifteen thousand, then Qin Shi will forget it, and he won't say anything, but the person who made this bid is Liu Bowen, so he can't bear it.
"Thirty thousand."
Qin Shi was about to open his mouth to suppress Liu Bowen's bid, but he didn't expect someone to open his bid one step ahead of him.
"Wen Yifeng!"
Qin Shi and the others set their eyes on the person who was bidding, and then they were suddenly shocked in their hearts.
"How could Wen Yifeng make a bid?"
Some people saw Wen Yifeng's bid, and they were extremely puzzled. Because every orchid meeting will have some elders present, but the auction has been going on for so many years, and there has never been a precedent for Wen Yifeng and these elders to bid. They all show up here as spectators.
"Could it be that he has anything to do with Qin Shi?"
Some people also guessed that because when he was in Caolu before, Wen Yi's style seemed to be a little special to Qin Shi, and his bid at this time made people think about it.
"How. Can't I bid? β
Seeing that Zhang Lin was dumbfounded all of a sudden, he also asked with a smile.
"No, the auction was originally intended for charity, and everyone present can participate."
Zhang Lin was indeed surprised by Wen Yifeng's bid, so she was stunned for a moment and didn't react.
"Then go ahead."
Wen Yifeng said to Zhang Lin.
"Hmm."
Zhang Lin nodded at Wen Yifeng, and then said to everyone: "Uncle Wen has paid 30,000, is there anyone else bidding?" β
As a result, there was still silence in the audience, and everyone was still puzzled about why Wen Yifeng would bid, and they didn't think of bidding to auction this painting at all.
"Thirty thousand for the first time. Thirty thousand for the second time. β
Seeing that the hammer in Zhang Lin's hand was about to be knocked down, someone made another bid at this time.
"One hundred thousand."
As soon as this price was shouted, the audience immediately erupted in an uproar, and it was even worse than before.
Because, this time it was no one else who made the bid, but Shen Danqing, a national treasure of Chinese painting in China.
Shen Danqing is the spiritual leader of the contemporary Chinese painting scene and is internationally renowned.
Legend has it that the picture of Xiangshan red leaves hanging on the wall of the chairman's office is the work of Shen Danqing.
Shen Danqing will appear here today, and he was also invited by Wen Yifeng, and his bid was more surprising than Wen Yifeng's bid. Because he is a grandmaster in the field of painting, if Wen Yifeng's bid can be explained by his relationship with Qin Shi, then everyone will not believe that Qin Shi will have something to do with a master like Shen Danqing, who has been famous in the Chinese painting world for a long time.
He was also a little surprised by Shen Danqing's bid. Because he didn't know much about the art world, he didn't know who this old man was.
"Is he?"
For this strange old man who bid 100,000 yuan, Qin Shi had some doubts in his heart, and then turned his head to Su Youxia and asked softly.
"He is Shen Danqing, a master of Chinese painting."
Su Youxia whispered in Qin Shi's ear.
"It's him."
Hearing Su Youxia say this, Qin Shi also knew the identity of this kind old man, he had heard the name Shen Danqing before. But I don't know what he looks like.
"I'll give 200,000!"
Just after Shen Danqing made a bid, Lan Xiaobao also raised a sign and shouted the price.
"Three hundred thousand."
After Lan Xiaobao called for the price, as his natural enemy, the prince also made a bid, and suddenly raised the price by a full 100,000.
First there was a bid with the wind, and then Shen Danqing, a master of the painting world, followed the price, and now a pair of natural enemies like the prince and Lan Xiaobao came out to stir up the situation, so Qin Shi's "Shrimp" inadvertently brought down this auction that was originally just a formality**.
From the original no one cared about it, to now they are bidding, and the identities of the bidders are very special, which makes everyone unconsciously watch more "Shrimp".
"Could it be that in addition to being able to write and sing, Qin Shi is still a genius in painting?"
Some people can't help but think like this, mainly because characters of Shen Danqing's status are bidding, plus his status in the painting world, everyone will not think that he is bidding for other reasons.
"No, maybe this painting has a hidden mystery, and I have to join in the fun."
"Four hundred thousand."
Everyone in the audience was not short of money, so someone immediately followed and pulled the bidding price to 400,000.
As soon as the price of 400,000 yuan came out, others were also driven.
"Five hundred thousand."
"Six hundred thousand."
"Six hundred and fifty thousand."
"Seven hundred thousand."
The bids came and went, and the originally disliked "Shrimp" has now become a sweet treat, and everyone wants to take it into their pockets.
"A million!"
After 700,000, someone directly shouted out the high price of 1 million, and the gray was quiet in an instant.
"Prince!"
Qin Shi looked at the person who had a million dollars, and it was the "crown prince" Huang Qianzhong, who had a lot of grudges against him.
After the prince bid, there was no one to bid, and the price of the painting was fixed at a high price of 1 million.
There are only three shrimps on "Shrimp", and nothing else.
And these three shrimps have also become the most expensive shrimps in history.
