Chapter 615
The silk thangka held by Huo Xinxin was auctioned a week after the end of the competition, and Gu Ming and Qin Sheng both went to see it on the day of the official auction. ()
Qin Huai hated it, but this auction was quite good, and the people invited were basically some powerful collectors. Gu Ming also saw several people wearing monk's robes sitting in the auction, which shows that there are really many people who are attracted by this silk thangka.
When Gu Ming and Qin Sheng arrived at the auction venue, they naturally couldn't hide from Qin Huai, the organizer, Qin Huai took time out of his busyness after receiving the news, pretended to walk in front of Gu Ming and Qin Sheng to say hello, and made a look as if the auction would not go on without him, and emphasized his importance openly and secretly.
It's a pity that his abacus was wrong, and instead of showing off, he was blocked back by Qin Sheng's words, which made the breath in his chest uncomfortable, and in the end he could only glare at Gu Ming and Qin Sheng fiercely and then find an excuse to leave.
"Your mouth is getting more and more poisonous." Looking at Qin Huai's angry back, Gu Ming couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker.
"You're wrong, I'm just telling the truth. People who really have the ability, even if they don't go to work for a week, the people below can still function normally. Qin Sheng said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, you're the best." Gu Ming couldn't laugh.
Gu Ming and Qin Sheng didn't come here today to bid with others, they just wanted to see who the silk thangka in Huo Xinxin's hand ended up with, and how much money it was auctioned off.
As the owner of this silk thangka, Huo Xinxin did not mean to be low-key, she arrived at the auction site one step earlier than Gu Ming and Qin Sheng, and was surrounded by many people as soon as she appeared, and the topic was of course around the silk thangka, the protagonist of this auction.
Gu Ming remembers that a few years ago, she auctioned a giant embroidered thangka from the Song Dynasty. At that time, it was sold for $1 million, and later it was auctioned again in other places, and finally sold for more than $30 million, setting a record for the highest price of a thangka.
The thangka that will be auctioned today belongs to the Qing Dynasty. And it is only one meter long, which is much inferior to the thangka that was sold for more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars, but because the number of silk thangkas handed down in the Qing Dynasty is scarce. In addition, this silk thangka is very well preserved, and its value is not low.
Before coming, Gu Ming and Qin Sheng made a rough estimate. Huo Xinxin's thangka, if there are no accidents, the transaction price should fluctuate around 500~600.
"How much did Huo Xinxin use to buy the thangka back from someone else?" Qin Sheng glanced at Huo Xinxin, who was talking and laughing with others, and asked in a low voice in Gu Ming's ear.
With Mr. Qiao's consent, Gu Ming also told Qin Sheng about the matter between Huo Xinxin and Xue Lao, and Qin Sheng was also a little shameful about what Huo Xinxin did.
"I don't know the specifics, it's not millions anyway." Gu Ming pursed her lips and said.
"I don't know if Huo Xinxin regrets it." Qin Sheng said thoughtfully.
Gu Ming sneered when she heard this. said in a low voice: "If it were me, I would definitely regret dying, I lost the watermelon and picked up the sesame seeds, and the teacher almost accepted her as an apprentice, but it was because she was greedy for the thangka with her solid eyes, so it didn't work." If Huo Xinxin had successfully become the teacher's apprentice a few years ago, I am afraid that she would have been able to buy this silk thangka back with her own ability without any means now. ”
"This is a personal choice, and you think you will regret it, because you are thinking about your future path as an appraiser. Huo Xinxin was reluctant to return the thangka at that time, perhaps because she felt that money was more important to her at that time. Qin Sheng sighed softly and said again: "But at this time and that time, people's hearts will change with time. ”
"You know again?" Gu Ming raised her eyebrows slightly.
Qin Sheng turned his head to stare at Gu Ming and said, "Isn't this something obvious?" If you want to auction this thing, you can't auction it anywhere. Huo Xinxin has also been abroad for several years, don't tell me she can't even contact a foreign auction house. If you can't bear to say that the treasures left by the country flow overseas, I won't believe it. ”
"I don't believe why I would say that kind of thing." Gu Ming said with a smile, "Don't say anything else, just because Huo Xinxin once hurt the teacher's feelings and lived up to the teacher's expectations for her, do you think my relationship with her can be good?" ”
"There are no absolutes in the world, what if people's posture is low and arouses your sympathy?" Qin Sheng said as if he had no intention.
"My compassion isn't that cheap." Gu Ming shook her head, looking disapproving.
Qin Sheng didn't say anything more when he heard this, just looked at Gu Ming and smiled.
What he said just now seemed unintentional, but in fact, he was secretly reminding Gu Ming to give Gu Ming a dose of preventive injection first, lest if Huo Xinxin really pulled down to pretend to be pitiful, then Gu Ming couldn't bear it.
In fact, he was completely overwhelmed, just like Gu Ming herself said, her sympathy is not so cheap, but it is not the kind that can be exuded by watching others pretend to be pitiful.
Besides, she is unswervingly on Xue Lao's side, she is resolutely opposed to anything that destroys and damages Xue Lao's reputation and feelings, knowing that Huo Xinxin is the pimple in Xue Lao's heart that cannot be erased for a long time, how could she turn around and stand on Huo Xinxin's side?
Before figuring out what Huo Xinxin was going to do when she returned to China with great fanfare, Gu Ming was not interested in having too much contact with the other party, so watching others exchange information around Huo Xinxin, she and Qin Sheng didn't step forward at all, just sat in their seats and waited for the auction to start.
Fortunately, the two of them didn't wait too long, and soon the lights on the scene dimmed, and the auction officially began.
The lights under the stage are a little dim, but the lights on the stage are very strong, and the lights are directly on the commentary table, so that the people below can see more clearly after the things are taken out later.
Just like the last time Qin Sheng helped auction the porcelain bowl of the kiln, Qin Huai also followed the auction of the silk thangka to build momentum, and auctioned some other things there before the auction of the silk thangka, and successfully completed a lot of business, and only after satisfying everyone's appetite did he take out the finale of the silk thangka.
The auction went smoothly, and after many bids, the silk thangka was finally sold by a wealthy merchant for 4.89 million yuan.
The silk thangka was successfully auctioned off at a high price, this is not the highlight of this auction, the real highlight is that after the auction was sold, Huo Xinxin stood on the stage and announced in front of everyone that she would not take any of the money from the auction of this silk thangka, but would give it all to the former owner of this silk thangka.
"I did something wrong many years ago, even though it was unintentional at the time, but if I did it wrong, I did it wrong. After knowing that I had done something wrong, although I had lived abroad for so many years, I had never had a good night's sleep, and I would return to China with this silk thangka this time, and a very important reason was that I wanted to make up for what I had done wrong. There are also a lot of media friends here today, and I hope that media friends can help me and spread my meaning, and I hope that the former owner of this silk thangka can contact me. Huo Xinxin said very sincerely, her demeanor and the kind of remorse and self-blame shown in her tone, it really made people a little unbearable to watch, and many reporters immediately said that they would definitely help Huo Xinxin with this favor.
Huo Xinxin's specious words attracted the attention of many people present, and many people were curious about what Huo Xinxin had done wrong, and he had to hand over so much money to others, and he was also the former owner of the silk thangka.
People who don't know the truth think that Huo Xinxin is a person who dares to act, so if you don't want such a large sum of money, you don't want it, and some people think that Huo Xinxin is pretending to be a pretentious gesture to cause a topic and so on.
No matter what others think, anyway, Gu Ming, who was sitting below, was completely stunned when she heard that Huo Xinxin was going to return the money she got from selling the silk thangka to the previous owner of this silk thangka, what kind of trouble did Huo Xinxin want?
"I heard you right, Huo Xinxin wants to return the money to the previous owner of the Silk Thangka?" Gu Ming reached out and plucked out his ears, and turned his head to look at Qin Sheng suspiciously.
"I'm sure you heard me right, I heard it too." Qin Sheng replied.
"The sun is coming out in the west?" Gu Ming was confused.
You must know that Huo Xinxin was unwilling to return the silk thangka to others before he was rejected by Xue Lao, so he withdrew the idea of accepting Huo Xinxin as an apprentice. Now, after several years, Huo Xinxin threw such a bombshell as soon as she came back, completely to stun people.
Gu Ming was confused by Huo Xinxin, and she didn't know what to say for a while, but those reporters were very sober, originally one of them was just reporting the final transaction price of the silk thangka this time, who knew that Huo Xinxin actually said such a powerful thing in the end.
That's 4.89 million, not 489 yuan!
The reporters who are constantly taking pictures can imagine how many people will pay attention to when they announce the news!
I don't dare to say anything else, but I'm afraid that the three words Huo Xinxin are going to become hot words in the near future.
