Li Guohui and Peng Yurou, a middle-aged couple, have a traditional but not old-fashioned style, jingching but not pretentious, everything seems so natural and harmonious, but it is much more pleasing to the eye than the actors in those costume TV series. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info said bluntly, that is, the aura is enough, and the rhythm and momentum of this move are really not said.

And Xie Bin and Li Jingjing are also not bad. Xie Bin himself usually doesn't pay much attention to it, but after changing into a black sè handmade suit and taking care of his hairstyle, he looks like a young man who is full of jing; As for Li Jingjing, she is wearing a knee-length white sè pleated skirt, like a slim water lotus. It's just embarrassing for them, it's really not easy to wear so thin this season.

Fortunately, the guests came relatively quickly, and it didn't take too long, and the guests were directly led into the conference room by the waiter after saying a word or two. Only some important guests will be led into the box by Xie Bin and Li Jingjing.

Xie Bin only understood how strong Li Guohui's connections and abilities were at this time, and he could remember the names and identities of almost everyone, and he could also find suitable topics. If nothing else, this memory alone is enough to embarrass most people. At least Xie Bin himself couldn't fully remember it. However, there are some particularly striking characters that I still remember very clearly.

For example, Mr. Wang, the boss of Wanda, the father and daughter of the new richest man Wahaha Group, Mr. Huang, the chairman of the Jin Coal Group, Mr. Hou, the boss of Rongfa Fishery in Ludong Province, etc., all of these people are masters with thousands of dollars, and each of them is no worse than Li Guohui.

In addition to these big businessmen, there are also some officialdom, such as a deputy mayor of the capital who also came in person, and a deputy minister of culture. But it's impossible for people to spend a lot of money on anything, and they might be able to sell something. At this time, I came to this occasion, and I came to cheer for it.

In addition, there are some celebrities in the collection industry, such as Ms. Wang, the king of red sandalwood, Mr. Liu Jinsheng, a calligrapher, and Mr. Zhao, the deputy director of the Palace Museum, etc., these people are also not the main force of the auction.

Of course, there is also an old acquaintance, such as Mr. Zhang from Haier, who has dealt with him several times. smiled and took his wife, and deliberately said to Xie Bin for a while, and sighed regretfully, "I'm still ready to order a good thing from you, who knows that you actually raised the threshold, I don't know when I will wait for the order now?" ”

Xie Bin smiled slightly: "Mr. Zhang said that he laughed, as long as you say a word, even if it is Chinese New Year's Eve, I will make it for you." ”

Mr. Zhang laughed, "That's not good, I took your Chinese New Year's Eve, your old man can't find me desperately, haha," said and waved his hand: "Okay, don't send me, let's go in by ourselves, I am more familiar with this place than you." Since Mr. Zhang said this, Xie Bin didn't insist anymore, and beckoned a waiter to lead the couple up.

In addition to Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhou is also a familiar person. It is indeed quite face-saving to come here in person at such an age. In addition, there are also Xie Bin's own friends, such as Mu Feng, as well as Li Moxuan and others. But this place is not a place to greet people, the more familiar people are, the simpler it is, nodding and entering. Of course, Chen Jianjun is indispensable, he came with Liu Mingna, smiled at Xie Bin and stood at the door to accompany Xie Bin to welcome guests, and let Liu Mingna and Li Jingjing go in together, which can be regarded as enough friends.

However, to Xie Bin's surprise and embarrassment, the girl Yu Xinyan also came, and she didn't hesitate to give Xie Bin a big hug, and then said hello to Chen Jianjun with a sweet smile, and then went in with her assistant.

Chen Jianjun glared at Xie Bin and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?" Beware of a fire in the backyard, these two are not simple characters, one is enough for you to parry. "Why doesn't Xie Bin know this truth, but things have come to this point, does he still have a choice?

Soon the guests were almost there, and there was no way to do some that didn't arrive, so naturally the waiter would lead them in when they arrived. And some people come specifically for a certain thing, and they will only come to the scene when it is their turn to start shooting, and they can also participate in the auction by phone, and some people who are inconvenient to come forward are estimated to use this method. Of course, there are also those who need their own assistants or subordinates to participate in the auction instead. Anyway, the current means of communication are too developed.

Therefore, the conference room of 800 people is more than enough, and the guests who actually arrive are only four or five hundred, and most of them still have one or two companions. Fortunately, no one brought any bodyguards or anything like that, otherwise the hall of 800 people would really not be able to fit in.

In fact, don't look at the only a few hundred people here, but these people take out one at random, and they are all big shots. What is the concept of the concentration of the wealth of these people? Xie Bin didn't even dare to think about it, it was definitely the scale of a super consortium.

In fact, it is the Bomei Group, if it is replaced by Sotheby's or Christie's, their boss will not come forward to welcome customers, and it would be good to have a few welcome ladies. However, Hiromi started from China, and it still has the characteristics of a traditional businessman, especially in terms of traditional etiquette.

Therefore, every time there is a big auction house, Li Guohui must go to the scene to welcome customers in person, that is, for some small auction sessions, the local manager or principal must also come forward in person. Otherwise, how could Hiromi develop into such a giant in just over a decade? Especially now, it has almost completely monopolized the domestic high-priced art auction market, and even Sotheby's can't compare with it.

The year before last, Sotheby's entered the mainland and held an autumn auction in the capital, although the result could not be said to have ended dismally, but the efficiency was still much worse than that of the autumn auction on Hong Kong Island. So far, although Sotheby's has not withdrawn from the mainland market, it has only been dismal and completely suppressed by Hiromei.

Of course, Sotheby's has branches all over the world, and its own strength is much stronger than that of Bomeranian. Li Guohui's Bomei Group is majestic in the mainland and among the best in East Asia, but when it comes to Europe and the United States, its influence is much smaller.

In a few points in Europe and the United States, if you don't lose money, you can count it as a profit, and you will be based on the first. In fact, this is also a matter of comprehensive strength, Bomei Group's market share of European and American art is very low, and more than 95% of the collections in its hands are produced in China, so it naturally cannot occupy the mainstream market in Europe and the United States.

Xie Bin and Chen Jianjun returned to the conference hall together, hundreds of rich people gathered together, this scene was really shocking, if all the people here were kidnapped, it would be a lively one. Of course, Xie Bin is just thinking nonsense, this is not another place, and there will never be a large-scale terrorist act like the movie in the mainland capital.

Li Jingjing, Liu Mingna, and Liu Wenqing did not enter the box, but sat in a corner of the hall and whispered something. However, it seems that Li Jingjing and Liu Mingna talk a lot, but Liu Wenqing just listened, and seemed a little restrained. After all, she is an ordinary girl, and it is strange to suddenly come to such an occasion and see so many legendary characters.

When Xie Bin had dinner with Liu Wenqing last night, he told her about this auction, and this girl wanted to come and see it, so she arrived here early in the morning. It's just that Xie Bin has been busy and couldn't take care of her, so he asked a waiter to bring her here first. made the waiter look at Liu Wenqing, who was dressed ordinarily, and thought it was the daughter of someone who pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger.

It is true that none of the people who are here today are ordinary people, they are either experts in the industry or big names in politics. However, the number of these two kinds of people is small, only about a dozen, and the rest are the mainstream, all of whom are rich people with tens of thousands of dollars. Even Yu Xinyan's girl has a net worth of tens of millions, not counting her family background.

On the first day of the show, there was no relatively cold opening as imagined, and a treasure was put on the opening scene, a picture of Wen Zhengming's "Autumn Mountain". Wen Zhengming's name does not need to be introduced too much, even laymen have heard of it, his paintings are all superior works in terms of ink style, brushwork or pattern, and there is no lack of classics.

In previous auctions, Wen Zhengming's works have always been more sought-after, and in the autumn auction of Bomei Auction House last year, Wen Zhengming's "Landscape" was also auctioned for a high price of 42 million, which set off a hot cháo for Wen Zhengming in China for a while. Although it is not as good as Zhang Daqian's record-breaking "Jia Lotus Picture" in the same period, nor as good as Qi Baishi's "Gao Li Millennium", it is also a leader in calligraphy and painting.

Zhang Daqian's "Lotus Root" was acquired by Mr. Lin Baili, a collector from Bay Island, for HK$170 million, because Mr. Lin has a soft spot for Zhang Daqian's paintings, and has already set new auction records for Zhang Daqian's works many times, so it is not surprising this time.

And Qi Baishi's "Gao Li Millennium" is a huge work, up to three meters, and the inheritance is orderly, Qi Baishi specially made for the Kuomintang senior general Zhang Shen painted, the whole chapter is stable and changeable, the pen is thick, the ink is smooth, the shape is clumsy and ingenious, completely showing the domineering spirit of the eagle. To give it to a general, it really couldn't be more appropriate. In addition, it is also supplemented by the penmanship of the line of calligraphy to write the four seal characters of "Gao Li Millennium", and there is a self-engraved rectangular seal of "human longevity", and Qi Baishi's calligraphy and painting seal are completely displayed. In the end, the auction price was as high as 70 million yuan, and if you count the commission, it is as high as 80 million yuan.

It is not unusual for these two works to fetch such a high price, because there is a special sè, and it is also worth this price. However, although Wen Zhengming's works are also recognized by insiders, the auction price of his works is not high. In the year of the Olympics, the price of 20 million was the highest price of his work. Therefore, last year, Wen Zhengming's works were able to fetch more than 40 million yuan, which still made many collectors happy.

And now the first work at the beginning is Wen Zhengming's "Autumn Mountain", the quality of this painting and the inscription are very perfect, it is a banner, one hundred and twenty centimeters long, which is relatively rare in Wen Zhengming's works, the starting price is as high as 18.88 million, and the popularity of the calligraphy and painting market can also be seen.
