Chapter 32 Bidding
"If you don't say it, you don't say it, what's the big deal?"
Qin Mengxi was very dissatisfied with Lu Tianyu's silence, so much so that the charity auction had already begun, and Qin Mengxi was still muttering something.
In contrast, Lu Tianyu was interested, looking at the guests around him, or, to put it more bluntly, all of Lu Tianyu's attention was basically focused on the young man on the left.
The reason is actually very simple, the young man sitting on his left side is Sun Deming, who has had many confrontations with him.
"Humph......"
Facing Lu Tianyu's gaze, Sun Deming immediately snorted coldly, he deliberately chose such a seat, the purpose was to give Lu Tianyu a little color in the next auction process.
"Hehe......"
Although he didn't know why Sun Deming was sitting beside him, from that hostile look, Lu Tianyu understood some information.
However, Lu Tianyu didn't take it to heart, the so-called soldiers came to block, and the water came to cover up, if Sun Deming dared to make any moths, he promised to make the other party regret his mistakes again.
"Brother Tian......"
At this time, Yang Wenbin walked over quietly, and then, with a cold eye, the young man sitting behind Lu Tianyu gave up his seat very interestingly.
Turning around, Lu Tianyu hurriedly asked in a low voice, "You didn't poke any baskets, did you?" ”
"How can it!"
In this regard, Yang Wenbin hurriedly smiled: "I just had a brief chat with that product, and then, he realized his mistake in time, and I didn't say anything!" ”
"Uh......"
Hearing Yang Wenbin say this, Lu Tianyu didn't react, but the corners of Qin Mengxi's mouth twitched violently a few times, in just a few minutes, what kind of torture did that oily-haired young man go through before he could realize his 'mistake'?
"Ahem...... Cough...... Ahem......"
Noticing that Qin Mengxi's eyes were a little strange, Yang Wenbin hurriedly coughed a few times: "I said, can you not look at me like this?" ”
"If you don't look at me, how do you know ......"
Before he finished speaking, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes had already walked to the front, which made Qin Mengxi have to intercept the topic, thus revealing a few serious expressions.
Similarly, Yang Wenbin also put away the smile on his face, and then looked straight ahead seriously!
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!"
Holding the microphone, the middle-aged man first greeted politely, and then said passionately: First of all, on behalf of the organizers, on behalf of the Coastal Red Cross, and on behalf of the children in the poor mountainous areas, I would like to pay high tribute to all the guests present. ”
"Smack...... Syllable...... Smack......"
In response to this person, there was a burst of thunderous applause, which shocked everyone present, and their eardrums were faintly painful.
"Thank you, thank you!"
With a deep bow, the middle-aged man said loudly again: "It's an honor that I will host tonight's charity gala......"
There was another round of thunderous applause, and the relevant leaders of the Binhai Municipal Party Committee, the relevant responsible persons of the Red Cross Society, and the relevant responsible persons of the Binhai Chamber of Commerce made brief speeches one by one.
After these speeches were over, the host walked to the front again, and then said with a smile on his face: "Next, it's time to enter our auction, please tonight's auctioneer!" ”
In a burst of warm applause, a young girl in a red cheongsam immediately walked to the host's side, and then, after a brief opening remarks, the young girl said loudly: "Don't say much, please ask the staff to show our first auction item tonight!" ”
Before the young girl could finish speaking, two staff members in white uniforms walked up carrying a rectangular object.
"Everybody......
Looking at everyone present, the young girl immediately said loudly: "This is a calligraphy and painting provided by Fusheng Group, called "Bamboo Tears"!" ”
"Uh......"
It was just a few words of effort, and the staff had already erected the calligraphy and painting, so that everyone could clearly see that there were a few bamboos in the painting, and the spots on the bamboo joints were like the tears of a beauty.
In addition, next to the bamboo, there are a few lines of poetry vaguely written, as for what kind of poems are few, and who is the hand, because of the distance, it is not very real.
However, there are also a few people who, after hearing the name of the painting, immediately think of a person, that is, Zhang Baiqian, a famous modern Chinese painter.
Sure enough, pointing to the calligraphy and painting, the young girl immediately smiled and said: "Everyone, this "Spotted Bamboo Tears" is from the hand of Zhang Baiqian, a famous modern painter in China......
"What......"
As soon as this remark came out, the audience suddenly boiled, Zhang Baiqian, a famous painter in modern China, can be described as an all-round painter, landscape, flowers and birds, fish and insects, animals, that is called an omnipotent, omniscient, in addition, Zhang Baiqian also has a deep attainment in poetry.
Unfortunately, due to some reasons, there are very few surviving works of Zhang Baiqian, so once someone takes out Zhang Baiqian's works for auction and proves to be authentic, they will always become the target of those collectors.
Based on this, for the large-scale efforts of Fusheng Group, everyone present can be said to be impressed, at least, if they have such a pair of calligraphy and paintings in their hands, they are reluctant to take it out.
Looking at the scene that was almost out of control, the young girl smiled even brighter: "Everyone, the starting price of this calligraphy and painting is one million Chinese coins, if you like it, you can compete for the price, but I have to remind you that each increase shall not be less than 100,000." ”
"A million? That's a seriously underestimated! ”
Regarding the value of calligraphy and painting, Qin Mengxi is indeed a layman, but her intuition tells her that the low price quoted by the auctioneer seems to be too conservative!
Hearing Qin Mengxi's whisper, Lu Tianyu immediately smiled dumbly: "For auction items like this, you can actually choose to ignore the low price. ”
"It's also ......"
Qin Mengxi must admit that like the current masterpiece, even if it is only one dollar at a low price, it seems that it can fetch a sky-high price.
Before the words fell, the middle-aged man, who was about six or seven seats away from Qin Mengxi, immediately stood up: "Two million!" ”
"Master Zhang's work, you only made two million?"
With a cold snort, an old man with gorgeous hair in the field immediately raised the sign in his hand: "Three million ......"
Before the old man's sign could be put down, Qin Mengxi shouted loudly: "Three and a half million!" ”
"Uh......"
Turning his head sideways, Lu Tianyu couldn't help but squint his eyes: "What, you're also interested?" ”
"Hee-hee-hee......"
Facing Lu Tianyu's inquiry, Qin Mengxi hurriedly whispered: "First, I like Banzhu and prefer the legend about it, second, this painting is from a famous artist and has a high collection value, and third, since I came to the banquet, I have to express what I say." ”
"Hehe, you're killing three birds with one stone!"
"That is, Miss Ben can still make a loss-making transaction?"
Blinking at Lu Tianyu, Qin Mengxi turned his gaze away, the purpose was very simple, it was nothing more than to see what potential opponents the participants had.
You must know that at this time, Sun Deming, who was sitting on the left side of Lu Tianyu, suddenly stood up: "Four million!" ”
"Nima ......"
In response to such a situation, before Qin Mengxi could respond, Yang Wenbin in the back suddenly burst into a foul language, and even fools could see that Sun Deming definitely didn't have any good intentions.
In contrast, Lu Tianyu glanced at Sun Deming with interest, and the latter immediately pouted: "What's the matter, others are not allowed to increase the price?" ”
"Yes, yes, it's your right!"
Nodding with a smile, Lu Tianyu raised the sign in his hand: "Four and a half million!" ”
"Five Million ......"
Seeing that Lu Tianyu followed the price increase, Sun Deming immediately quoted the latest price, and while sitting down, Sun Deming also glared at Lu Tianyu provocatively.
"Five and a half million!"
"Six Million ......"
"Six and a half million!"
"Seven ......"
In the face of Sun Deming's provocation, Lu Tianyu was about to fight back, but Qin Mengxi suddenly pushed him: "Bastard, forget it......"
In Qin Mengxi's eyes, the actual value of the current painting is at most six or seven million, at least, in her mind, at most this price.
However, because Sun Deming got in the way, they would inevitably pay a huge price if they wanted to win this masterpiece, so out of some considerations, Qin Mengxi decided to give up.
"Hehe......"
Compared with Qin Mengxi's deep frowns, Lu Tianyu smiled lightly: "Silly girl, since we have already made a move, we can't give up halfway, otherwise, these friends in the mall may laugh at us, don't you say?" ”
After speaking, without waiting for Qin Mengxi's response, Lu Tianyu raised the sign in his hand again: "Seven million ......"
Hearing Lu Tianyu's offer, the young girl immediately smiled as brightly as a spring flower: "Seven million, this gentleman bid seven million, is there anything higher?" ”
"Alas......"
In the face of the young girl's inquiry, the participants couldn't help but smile bitterly, and the fool could see that the two young people in the front row were already on the bar, and no matter how much they liked this masterpiece, there seemed to be no reason to follow Hu Lai.
"Eight Million ......"
Of course, there are exceptions, such as Sun Deming, who was beside Lu Tianyu, stood up again, and with an arrogant face, he glanced around.
"Nine Million ......"
Lu Tianyu's understatement almost scared Qin Mengxi out of a heart attack, you know, that's nine million, not nine, ninety, as far as the current situation of Yunmeng Group is concerned, it is really difficult for her to take out nine million at once.
