"Humph! Then I don't care, anyway, I told them what you taught, and if you embarrass me when the time comes...... Hey hey ......"
Helen's smiling appearance really made Jin Muchen feel a chill in his stomach, what the hell, when did I teach you this?
I'm just saying what I think, and you have to show it off to others, so how can you put this on my head?
However, he also knew that he couldn't be reasonable with a woman, so he chose to shut up very smartly.
At this time, the auctioneer on the stage also started the next round of bidding, and the bidding mode arranged by the gallery was quite attentive.
A popular Jeffrey work was just shot in front of him, and immediately followed up with a pair of Anthony. Wise's work, works of different styles, can create an extraordinary visual impact just right.
"Uh...... Helen, you see that Anthony's paintings have already started to be auctioned, and you see if you let go, or you won't have a chance to raise your hand after a while. ”
Helen turned her head, looked at him with a smile, and let go of the right hand that was surrounding him.
And Jin Muchen immediately shook his arm, what a deal, I really didn't see that this little girl's hand strength is so big, it seems that she usually exercises a lot!
He didn't dare to roll up his sleeves to take a look, but he was sure that the inside of his left little arm must have been pinched.
"Hey, it feels good. It seems that carrying a large bag in the distribution center is still quite exercised? ”
Helen also stretched out the two fingers of her right hand and made a similar action of counting money in front of Jin Muchen, and Jin Muchen's body trembled.
"You'd better pray that your judgment is accurate, hehe, though. Otherwise......"
Jin Muchen's body involuntarily shrank back, damn, I knew this, I would definitely not agree to her invitation at the beginning.
Judy and Maria, who were standing on the side, were covering their mouths and snickering, watching these two living treasures flirt together. It's just so much fun.
"The work below is a work of the new realist painter, Anthony. Wise's work, "Alice at Dusk," was created by Anthony last July and is four feet long. Two feet wide, the style of painting ......"
The auctioneer vigorously introduced Anthony's painting on the stage, which Jin Muchen and Helen had seen in the gallery before.
Inside this painting is a picture of a girl in white gauze and lace sitting under a bench at dusk, the picture is very full, and the use of light and color is very good.
Just now, Jin Muchen had the highest evaluation of this painting, and the realistic color of this painting is very prominent, if it weren't for the corners of the picture, there are traces of ink that the painter can leave behind. From a distance, it's really hard to tell if it's an oil painting or a zoomed-in photo.
If you stare at the girl in the picture for a long time. You can even read the meaning of the invitation in her eyes, of course, although the model in this painting is wearing a white gauze skirt and lace socks, but the style is of course the traditional Western oil painting is very explicit, and you can even see the inside of her skirt through the white gauze......
It's a painting that really makes it easy to get into a reverie. And I feel a lot of paintings, in Jin Muchen's opinion. Perfect for hanging across from the bed in the bedroom of the tycoons.
I've been watching it for a long time, and I've associated it a lot. It can easily act as an aphrodisiac......
"The starting price for this painting is $50,000, with an increase of $2,000 each time, so let's start bidding now......"
Sure enough, it is not difficult to see from the quotation from the auctioneer's mouth that the paintings of realist painters are indeed not as popular as the works of impressionist painters, even if Jeffrey's paintings are not pure impressionism.
And after the auctioneer announced the start of bidding, there are even fewer art lovers who are interested in holding up their cards to participate in the auction, and it seems that everyone is really focused on that Jeffrey, for this Anthony, hehe, I'm sorry, although your painting is also amazing, but who made him too realistic.
Most of the people who come here don't know much about oil painting, and more can only be called art lovers or art investors.
When they look at the quality of oil paintings, they mainly focus on the style of oil paintings, the potential of the painters, and the popularity of Cheng dù.
The auctioneer shouted several times, but none of the people below had any intention of raising their cards.
Originally, Helen was a little moved by what Jin Muchen said, and wanted to buy this painting, but after waiting for a while, no one was willing to bid for this painting at all, and she couldn't help but hesitate.
The auctioneer on the stage said several times and praised the benefits of the painting, but still no one was willing to bid, and finally when he was helpless to announce that the painting was not auctioned, a hand suddenly raised.
"That gentleman is willing to pay fifty-two thousand dollars, is there anyone willing to increase the price?"
Everyone in the room turned their heads, trying to see which guy with his head caught in the door would buy such an oil painting that was similar to the photograph.
As a result, everyone saw a somewhat unfamiliar Asian face, and Jin Muchen was calm when he arrived, if you don't want to buy it, then I'll buy it.
“…… $52,000 for the third time, deal! ”
The auctioneer shouted the first two times very quickly, as if he was afraid that Jin Muchen would regret it, and he didn't even wait for him to understand what was going on, and the hammer was sold.
The people around him whispered, of course, it was not a good thing, and they completely regarded Jin Muchen as the kind of mobile wallet from China.
Casey and Andy, who were standing in front, also cast contemptuous and mocking glances at him, but Jin Muchen didn't mind, one painting seems to be not enough, since you don't want to buy it, then wait a while, I'm buying a few more......
"Are you crazy? How many pairs have you already bought? It's a bit of a gamble to buy like this, right? ”
What happened next, even Helen, who was standing next to Jin Muchen, looked stupid, as long as Jeffrey's paintings were brought up, they would immediately be scramble by the art lovers in the audience.
And Anthony's paintings, as long as they are picked up, are a scene that no one cares about, but whenever at the last moment, before the auctioneer wants to announce the failure of the auction, Jin Muchen will raise his hand to take down the painting, and no one will compete with him at all.
In just over half an hour, he has won five of Anthony's paintings one after another, all of which are large-size, but the reserve price is not high, that is, it starts at 50,000 to 80,000 US dollars, and the final transaction price is only 2,000 US dollars higher than the reserve price.
Although it doesn't seem like a lot of money to look at it this way, it seems really silly that you don't buy the sought-after product, but instead buy the work of someone who is not favored by everyone.
Helen couldn't help it, and wanted to stop Jin Muchen from coming, but Jin Muchen smiled slightly at this time.
"Anyway, you don't believe what I said, so don't stop me from making money, okay? I can tell you clearly, this is a rare opportunity to make money, if you miss this time, you don't know when you will wait for the next time. ”
"Why are you so confident?"
Helen's big blue eyes were full of questions, and the longer she stayed with Jin Muchen, the more she couldn't figure out what was going on in this guy's head.
And Jin Muchen's eyes at this time were focused on Anthony standing next to the stage, although this guy was facing everyone at this time, his eyes no longer knew where he had drifted, and he was obviously in a state of fugue outside the world.
The originally pale face also flew up with two touches of red at this time, and it seemed that it was the kind of appearance that turned the sky after sucking the white noodles.
It's just that at this time, everyone didn't notice that his right hand was twitching slightly, and the muscles on his face that twitched from time to time, this guy seemed to be dying.
It is precisely because of this that he dares to bet that this guy's paintings will be invited to the American traveling art exhibition and collected by the National Gallery of the United States first.
"You see, the truth is often in the hands of a few......"
Jin Muchen looked at the front of the stage, and Helen followed his gaze, but she couldn't see anything, after all, she didn't have such good eyes as Jin Muchen.
However, his trance-like attitude made her have an unfathomable longing for Jin Muchen.
Could it be that what this guy said is true, and that this Anthony painting will become a collection of the National Gallery one step ahead of Jeffrey?
With this thought, Helen's mind could not be contained, and when the next Anthony work was brought up, she was the first to raise her hand after the auctioneer had just announced the bid with the low price and bidding criteria......
Her actions surprised everyone present, but Jin Muchen smiled slightly and did not choose to bid with her.
He had already taken five of Anthony's paintings, and they were all the largest and the most of the best quality, and the rest of the paintings were not of great size, and the quality could only be said to be average compared to the ones he bought, and he still had enough for tonight.
The next charity auction gradually changed its taste, if Jin Muchen is an unknown person, then Helen is not an ordinary person, most of the people who come here to participate in the auction know her.
When she first bought a painting of Anthony, everyone thought she was just for fun, but after she took three pictures of Anthony in a row, everyone felt that there was something wrong with it.
Could it be that Helen received some rumors? Their family is engaged in the media, and she has always been well-informed, and she is scanning goods at this time, so this Anthony painting must have a reason worth bidding...... (To be continued)
