Chapter 454 - Not playing cards according to the rules
It is not the first time that Wu Wanli has participated in the auction, so he naturally understands that the more auction items everyone rushes to auction together, the final price will definitely rise very high.
Actually, this is not to be said by a person who regularly attends auctions.
Even Su Mu, who participated in the auction for the first time, understood this truth very well.
There are competing auctions where the prices of the items are sure to skyrocket.
This is also the original intention of the organizers to hold the auction.
The organizers of the auction wish that all the lots would be treated in this way.
The more everyone rushes to shoot together, the more the organizer earns.
Even the auctioneer's commission will be much higher.
Wu Wanli turned his head to look behind him, but unfortunately no one was staring at Wu Wanli.
Seriously, if Wu Wanli hadn't grabbed the position next to the little master of the Su family, the other bigwigs present would not have much interest in this Wu Wanli.
Wu Wanli's Wanli Department Store, in the eyes of those bigwigs, is not a big industry.
Of course, Wu Wanli will naturally not be the object of these bigwigs' attention.
Now the eyes of other people only have the second auction item, and of course what they want in their hearts is to show their faces in front of the young master of the Su family.
It is rare for the little young master of the Su family to attend such a public occasion, and everyone is vying to let this little young master remember him first.
For those bigwigs who are not familiar with Su Mu now, finding a common topic with Su Mu will open the door to understanding.
The common topic is, of course, this second lot.
Because of Wu Wanli's misleading, the reason why others thought that Wu Wanli would be so positive was because the young master of the Su family also felt that this ring was good.
What can make the little master of the Su family look at it is naturally a good thing.
Many people thought that if they took the ring, they could use it as an excuse to talk to the young master of the Su family.
So, everyone's enthusiasm is quite high.
"Fifteen million."
Su Mu was stunned for a moment when he heard this bid, this was obviously not the auctioneer's voice.
Moreover, according to the rules that the auctioneer said at the beginning, it should be 500,500,000 and 1 addition, why has it now become a direct increase of 2 million?
Su Mu glanced sideways at Wu Wanli, who was sitting next to him.
That's right, it wasn't the auctioneer who called out the "fifteen million" just now, it was Wu Wanli, the boss of Wanli Department Store.
In fact, Wu Wanli was also red-eyed, seeing so many people wanting to grab the ring that the little master of the Su family also thought was "good" with him.
Of course, Wu Wanli can't sit still.
Therefore, Wu Wanli has a feeling of preemptiveness.
Wu Wanli felt that he directly increased the price by two million, rather than five hundred and fifty thousand.
That little by little feeling is like boiling a frog in warm water, none of these people in this time will care about a half million.
But if it's two million all of a sudden, it's not a big deal for the bigwigs here.
But if you think about it, you will find that the current asking price is about to double the initial bidding price.
Wu Wanli just wants to remind everyone by his own price increase of 2 million, and the current bidding price is already very high.
You can also stop it.
Of course, Wu Wanli also expressed a clear attitude, that is, he must take this ring.
Wu Wanli just wants others to stop competing with him like this.
Sure enough, Wu Wanli's strategy seems to have really worked.
Because after Wu Wanli's "fifteen million" was called, the venue of the auction suddenly became quiet.
No one rushed to hold up a sign or anything.
"Fifteen million, Mr. Wu bid fifteen million."
"Hasn't anyone taller than fifteen million?"
After a brief silence, the auctioneer's excited shouts began.
Although the auctioneer said at the beginning, the rule of today's auction is that one bidding card means a price increase of 500,000.
But this only means that the starting price of a bid card is 500,000 yuan.
It's not that the bidders below can only increase the price by 500,000 and 500,000.
For auctions, of course, the more participants add to the price, the better.
How could it be possible not to allow guests to directly exceed 500,000 price increases?
The auctioneer's words made everyone's brain, which had just been temporarily calmed by Wu Wanli's unreasonable routine, suddenly sober up.
"What do you mean by this? That's how the ring got into his eyes? In such a hurry, the price was raised by two million all of a sudden? ”
"You can't see that? Wu Wanli obviously wanted to be a young master of the Su family. ”
"Yes, yes, I also noticed earlier, when the auctioneer introduced this ring, Wu Wanli said something to the little young master, and then the little young master nodded."
"I'll just say, you see that not only Wu Wanli, but also those who sit in the back row of the little master and Wu Wanli, are also very attentive to this ring."
"Those people must have heard the conversation between Wu Wanli and the little young master."
"No, I've been looking at the little young master, I'm sure that the little young master won't say more than five words to Wu Wanli."
"Five words, it seems that the little young master didn't pay attention to Wu Wanli, so why is Wu Wanli so excited like a chicken blood?"
"Wu Wanli is usually a good person, and he will definitely not do anything for no reason, and this ring may have some inside story."
"What's the inside story of a ring? It must be because the little master also thinks this ring is good, Wu Wanli just wants to behave well in front of the little master. ”
The people behind began to talk in whispers.
Mainly because Wu Wanli's move not to play cards according to the rules of the cards today has aroused everyone's greater curiosity.
Originally, this multi-person bid for a ring, and the scene was still very lively.
Everyone already felt very strange in their hearts.
Now Wu Wanli's hand has strengthened everyone's curiosity.
Among those who were discussing it were several people who had just held up their signs.
When they heard that everyone agreed that Wu Wanli's actions had something to do with the young master of the Su family, these people felt that their judgment at the beginning was correct.
Originally, these people were not so interested in the ring worn by the Empress Dowager Cixi.
It's just that a few people saw the "interaction" between Wu Wanli and the little young master of the Su family.
Looking at Wu Wanli as the first to raise a card, everyone is somewhat clear in their hearts.
You must know that the people present are not only Wu Wanli who wants to show his face in front of the young master of the Su family.
Others have the same thoughts.
Since everyone thinks so, then everyone's thinking must be the same.
"Fifteen million at a time."
"Has anyone else raised the price?"
The auctioneer naturally noticed the enthusiasm of the big guy on the scene for this second auction item.
The auctioneer is not in a hurry to make the final word.
The auctioneer's eyes slowly brushed over the faces of the bigwigs present, as if he was looking for the fifteen million receivers.
Everyone seemed to be a little confused by Wu Wanli's hand, and when the auctioneer shouted for the first time, no one really raised the bidding card in his hand.
Wu Wanli's heart was a little secretly proud.
It seems that this method of mine is very useful, just to give these people a deterrent.
Wu Wanli felt that this was the position on the right hand side of the little young master of the Su family that he had only grabbed by relying on his cleverness.
Because Wu Wanli grabbed such a good position, he had the opportunity to talk to the young master of the Su family.
After speaking, Wu Wanli knew that this ring had also won the eyes of the little master.
So all of this, Wu Wanli felt that he had earned it by himself.
Why are other people sitting there enjoying the success and grabbing this ring that the little master can also see?
Wu Wanli waited for the auctioneer to finish the following process and knock down the little hammer that Wu Wanli was looking forward to now.
"Fifteen million twice."
"This ring was Lafayette's favorite ring back then, and Boss Wu's vision is really good."
The auctioneer and Wu Wanli thought differently.
Wu Wanli was anxiously waiting for the small hammer in the auctioneer's hand to be raised as soon as possible, and then knocked down as soon as possible.
Wu Wanli now felt that the sound of the small hammer would definitely be very pleasant.
But the auctioneer is not in a hurry at all.
Although the current price of this ring has long exceeded the auctioneer's initial estimate.
You know, from 8 million to 15 million, it's almost doubled.
This is the second lot, and it is not the finale of today's auction at all.
The auctioneer knows that even if it is sold for 15 million in the end, it is a very remarkable achievement.
It's just that it's not that auctioneers are greedy.
It's true that today's situation is a bit special.
The auctioneer knew that this second lot would be so sought after by everyone.
It's not what I just said, this ring was Lafayette's favorite at the time, or something like that.
What the auctioneer said was on the scene, but who knows what the situation is?
After all, archaeology can't get a definite answer to this.
When the auctioneer said that, he just wanted to delay a little longer.
The auctioneer knew in his heart that everyone would compete for this ring so much because of the credit of the young master of the Su family.
And now everyone suddenly didn't move, it was caused by Wu Wanli's sudden attack just now.
The auctioneer felt that he should try to delay a little bit so that everyone would have time to reminisce.
In this case, there may be a new round of bidding.
The auctioneer's eyes glanced over everyone's faces again.
The auctioneer found that the young master of the Su family didn't seem to be calling for the current battle situation.
The young master of the Su family not only glanced at the rings on the booth, but even turned a blind eye to everyone's enthusiasm.
Could it be that the young master of the Su family didn't take a fancy to this ring, but Boss Wu misunderstood?
The auctioneer is a little weak-hearted, if that's the case, then is everyone misunderstood?
Everyone is riveting their feelings and wants to show it in front of the little master, but it turns out that it is all their own wishful thinking?
The auctioneer didn't dare to stare at Su Mu anymore.
I'm afraid that I am too weak and can't grasp the rhythm of the auction below.
"Fifteen million twice."
Realizing that what he really wanted might not be what everyone thought, the auctioneer stopped inking.
For the auctioneer, even if this second lot is sold for 15 million yuan, it will already exceed his mental estimate.
The auctioneer's commission will not be less.
"A Thousand ......"
The auctioneer, who had already picked up the pace and was going to complete the final process of this second lot at a normal pace, was ready to call out the third bid.
It's just that the "fifteen million" hasn't been fully shouted out, and the auctioneer saw the bidding card he had been looking forward to seeing.
Someone actually started bidding again.
Does this mean that the spring of the second lot is coming again?
The auctioneer understands that it seems that only he can see clearly that this is the real thing he wants.
Other people must still think that the young master of the Su family has a very good evaluation of this second auction item.
This is a very beautiful misunderstanding, at least for the auctioneer.
Someone bids, and of course the auctioneer puts the brakes on the third bid that he is about to shout.
"Fifteen and half a million, this Mr. Wang bid fifteen and half a million."
Because the guests this time are carefully selected by the auction.
Before the auction begins, the auctioneers also preview the materials of these guests.
Naturally, you will know who the guest is holding the sign.
"Mr. Wang's vision is really good, Mr. Wang bid 15.5 million, is there any higher bidder?"
The auctioneer's exhaust sycophant is really not ambiguous at all.
A few minutes ago, the auctioneer who was still praising Wu Wanli's good vision, just because Mr. Wang added 500,000 yuan, he began to praise Mr. Wang for his good vision.
In fact, it's not just a matter of half a million.
Mr. Wang's move this time is equivalent to opening up the sense of deterrence that Wu Wanli wants to create.
With this fluttering sign, it can be said that Wu Wanli's little caution is completely useless.
The smile on Wu Wanli's face froze again.
Wu Wanli, who was not lightly angry, didn't want to turn his head to see who was fighting with him.
Wu Wanli had a hunch that his fifteen million had been broken, and there would be another climax below.
At this time, Wu Wanli was a little blaming himself for being too anxious at the beginning.
Wu Wanli felt that if he didn't raise his card first, it was estimated that the interaction between himself and the young master of the Su family would not be so attention-grabbing.
However, Wu Wanli immediately overturned his idea.
Wu Wanli knew that even if he was not in a hurry to be the first to raise the card, the people sitting behind him and the little young master still listened to the conversation between himself and the little young master word for word.
Therefore, no matter what Wu Wanli does, the final result is already doomed.
This is the charm of the young master of the Su family.
Wu Wanli now thinks that what is said on TV about the star effect or something, compared with the charm of the little master, it is really not worth mentioning.
Far from it, to be exact.
