Chapter 545: The Butterfly Effect Again
Bai Jieru also helped Wang Yu get an invitation, which is not difficult for her current executive director of Yonghua Bank.
Ou Jun's eucalyptus is still in progress, and the poison pill plan is also being planned, so in a public place like an auction, Wang Yu still tries to avoid walking with Dong Xuan and them.
Christie's (CHRISTIE S) is one of the world's most famous art auction houses. The lot brings together rare works of art, watches, jewelry, automobiles and wines from around the world.
Generally speaking, Christie's mainly holds two auctions a year, which are the well-known spring and autumn auctions.
In the past past, Christie's achieved a total of HK$1.07 billion in the 2009 HK Spring Auctions, achieving a market share of 61% in Asia.
More than 50% of the 1,659 lots sold at this season's HK Spring Sale*** exceeded their original estimates, demonstrating the global appetite for rare pieces such as Asian art, fine watches, jewellery and fine wines.
The results of this auction reaffirm Hong Kong's position as one of the world's leading art markets.
There are also many regrets in the middle, such as in the jewelry section, it is said that it is a special sale of magnificent jewelry and jadeite jewelry, but nine of the top ten lots are diamond lots.
This is obviously not satisfactory for the local people in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and some wealthy people from the mainland.
After all, since ancient times, the recognition of jade in the Chinese cultural circle is much higher than that of diamonds.
In view of this, Christie's has specially launched this small jade auction.
Originally, according to Christie's's normal process, there would be a series of publicity, exhibitions and other activities before the auction, but this time the situation is more special, and the vast majority of the invited customers are old customers in the rich Chinese circle, who have exclusive preferences for jade lots, so these cumbersome links are omitted.
The auction started at half past one in the afternoon, and at about one and twenty in the afternoon, Wang Yu took Song Qing into the auction venue.
With the invitation, I received the number 37 plate and a booklet of the lot in this auction.
"Boss, will you really let me hold up the sign for a while?"
Song Qing was a little nervous: "I have seen such a scene in the movie, which is the kind of thing that grabs something and everyone refuses to let go......
Wang Yu looked down at the booklet he had just gotten, which displayed beautiful photos of Mercedes-Benz auction items, the first half of which was nephrite, and the second half of which was jadeite.
Yes, in Chinese cultural cognition, jade is divided into nephrite and jadeite.
Jadeite refers to jadeite, nephrite jade contains a wide range, such as glazed jade, Lantian jade is also counted, but can be auctioned by Christie's, only Hetian jade.
So the lots in this auction are Hetian jade and jadeite.
"If I don't stop later, you just keep going."
"Ah......?"
"Do you prefer soft or hard?"
Song Qing poked her head and looked at the booklet opened in Wang Yu's hand, and was attracted at a glance.
"This looks good!"
Her white finger was dotted on a picture of a teardrop-shaped turquoise pendant.
Wang Yu looked up at the middle of Song Qing's two collarbones, touched his chin and said, "Well, there is a missing pendant here."
As he spoke, more and more people came in at the auction site, almost 100% of them were Chinese faces.
At half past one, the auction started on time.
"Boss, Mr. Bai and Mr. Dong are in the third row in front."
Song Qing whispered close to Wang Yu's ear: "The fourth and fifth from the left."
"Well, each one shoots his own, you just don't see them."
The first few lots are all Hetian jade carvings, beautiful is beautiful, but they can only be placed at home, so Wang Yu is not interested, but Song Qing, the first time she saw such a scene, she was a little excited.
"Next up is the seventh lot of the sale, the mutton fat white jade Maitreya Buddha card, which is 3.3 long
pp】
It's not that they don't have enough money, it's just that after they raise their cards, Song Qing will definitely raise their cards, and they will hold them until no one competes.
This posture ushered in several gazes, and the faces of Wang Yu and Song Qing were menacing!
You must know that there is a piece of ice Zhengyang green "jade leaf" withered piece just now, from the starting price of 500,000 yuan, all the way to 1.55 million, but whenever someone raises a card, the No. 37 brand will definitely follow, just that kind of momentum is bound to win, it has pressed a group of wives and ladies.
"Next is one of the boutiques of this special session: Imperial Green Glass Kind of Nothing Affair, Origin Hpakant Changkou, Lot Specifications 5.3 Long and 2.51 Wide, with a starting price of 8 million Hong Kong dollars, and a price increase of not less than 200,000 ...... each time."
With the projection on the side showing this okay card, that touch of refreshing greenery makes people unable to extricate themselves at a glance.
Wang Yu bought a pair of bracelets of this quality, and he spent 30 million at that time.
Judging from the photos shown, it is also an old object, because its edging has been pulped.
"What are you doing?"
"Oh, oh!"
Song Qing retracted her reluctant gaze: "Boss, this piece of jade is so beautiful!"
"Well, if it looks good, take a picture!"
As soon as these words came out, Song Qing's eyes lit up.
Oh, women, they have no resistance to sparkling gemstones.
"Lady No. 32, 8 million!"
With the auctioneer's first hammer sound, this imperial green glass has nothing to do with the card and entered the bidding process.
"Lady 21, 8.2 million!"
"Mr. 30, 8.4 million!"
"Mr. 28, 8.6 million!"
......
The price went all the way up, surpassing 10 million in just a few minutes.
Song Qing's eyes moved with the ups and downs of the brands everywhere, and she had to take into account looking at Wang Yu from time to time, obviously waiting for his instructions.
When the price came to 12 million, the quotation slowed down.
At this time, only three families were still holding their cards, a woman on the 21st, and two men on the 55th and 16th.
The three of them were entangled for another minute, and the price came to 13.8 million.
"Man No. 16, 14 million, is there any price increase?"
The auctioneer's loud voice lasted for several seconds, and no one followed.
"Hold up the cards!"
Wang Yu finally spoke.
"Ms. 37, 14.2 million, is there any price increase?"
Seeing that there was a new buyer holding up a sign, and it was still No. 37 that had bitten it before and did not say it, the auctioneer's usual steady voice also brought a trace of joy.
"Man No. 16, 14.4 million, is there any price increase?"
"Ms. 37, 14.6 million, is there any price increase?"
......
After several entanglements, the price soon exceeded 15 million.
Zhou Shaoyi originally thought that he was stable, but he didn't expect a No. 37 to suddenly pop out, judging from the previous auction posture, he was definitely a difficult master.
He turned his head to look at Song Qing, who was holding a sign, and saw Wang Yu sitting next to him by the way.
And Wang Yu also saw Zhou Shaoyi.
Hey, isn't that the third son of the Zhou family at the yacht dock yesterday?
It's not that enemies don't get together......
Wang Yu touched his chin and felt that HK was so small.
"Man No. 16, 16 million!"
The auctioneer saw that he was holding the No. 16 sign and signaled five times in a row, which was about to start the shopping, and involuntarily raised a pitch.
"Man No. 16, 16 million, is there any price increase?"
"Ms. 37, 16.2 million! Lady 37, 16.2 million!"
When the auctioneer saw that No. 37 had followed, the smile on his face became sweeter: "Is there any?"
Is there a markup?"
This time, not only Zhou Shaoyi, but many people turned their eyes to Song Qing's side, and this girl was both nervous and excited.
No. 21, who had given up holding cards before, also turned his head and looked at Song Qing.
But his gaze only stayed on her for half a second, and then shifted to Wang Yu's face on the side.
Wang Yu also saw her face, and suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"Wouldn't it?"
I was stunned for a while.
"Is this Nima a butterfly effect again?"
Wang Yu had 10,000 grass and mud horses running through in his heart, and he actually saw the young version of Guan Zhilin in 2009!
You must know that this Guan Da beauty was reborn in Wang Yu's previous life, but the person born in 1962 should be 47 years old now.
Look at this face now, it's in your early twenties!
Is it so rich?
