Chapter 279: Famous Piano Auction

"I'll see, how many meters do I have~"

Lighthouse, New York.

Li Jinglin and Luo Shiyao have just settled into the hotel.

Start taking stock of what you have.

"Eight-thousand-thousand."

Li Jinglin's face was very complicated.

This money, a lot, I haven't counted it before, and I can't believe that I earned it myself.

The thought of the money was about to run out.

My heart hurts.

But when I thought that money could be exchanged for an expensive violin.

It feels so good.

"It's a bit of a hanging."

Luo Shiyao's face was complicated.

This money is really not up to it.

If it's an ordinary famous piano, this money is more than enough.

Not even more than seven figures.

But if you want to buy a high-grade, truly valuable famous piano?

I'm afraid that's not enough, after all, the funds that need to be prepared for the auction of that handful of pianos are at least 100 million.

"Who doesn't want a piano of this grade as a cannon."

Li Jinglin pursed his lips.

Cannons with such a special historical significance as the piano are hard to find.

However, if it is in the same grade, some other pianos, perhaps in a historical sense, are not as good as cannons, but the gap is not so big, and other aspects are completely top-notch.

However, such a piano is very expensive.

"Speaking of which, I remembered a female classmate I met when I was studying abroad in Miyin."

Li Jinglin sighed.

Eyes are complex.

"At that time, I had just arrived abroad, and my reputation was quite average, and the piano in my hand was still made up by Shen Tuan and the scholarship, 80,000 yuan."

"The piano is already very advanced, it is completely capable of reaching the performance level, and it is the first time I have used such an expensive piano."

"But when I went abroad and met really rich people, the gap was really shocking."

"That female classmate's grades are mediocre, her talent is quite miserable, and her hard work is not enough, she feels like she was pushed up by relying on her family's financial resources, but as soon as she made a move, she was directly a famous piano worth four million meters of gold."

"Four million meters of knife?!"

Luo Shiyao was taken aback.

also smacked his tongue again and again.

"And what about her now?"

"I didn't become a performer, I went back to inherit the family property and engage in marriage, as if I was married to a very rich young master."

Li Jinglin spread his hands.

"That's how the world is uneven."

β€œ.”

It is certainly impossible to say that there is no envy at all.

For Li Jinglin, the price is really secondary, but the piano itself is really fragrant.

The violin is more and more transparent, and the resonance will become better and better, and the new piano really can't do the old piano.

Ancient wood oxidizes over time, creating unique vibrations that weave between the resonance boxes.

The baptism and refinement of musical instruments over the years is like wine, which makes people go up.

Most of these high-end old pianos were gathered in Italy in the 17th and 18th centuries, and their original owners were definitely not simple people, which made the value even more rising.

But jealousy is not.

After all, although poor, Li Jinglin is strong enough.

Cannons are not something that can be used with money.

But Brother Lin is white.

If you say that when you saw the famous piano before, Li Jinglin would sigh "It's good to be rich".

Now, I just don't feel anything.

Even if you are not good at your skills and still use a famous piano, there will be ridiculed by other players.

[What grade, it's the same as Brother Lin's. 】

It turns out.

It's not terrible to have a famous piano, and whoever pulls the dish is embarrassed.

"Anyway, my budget this time. If you can win a piano worth three or four million dollars, it is the upper limit. ”

Li Jinglin paused and spoke.

"At most, it's 350 percent."

As soon as the words fell.

Li Jinglin's phone rang.

After answering the phone, Li Jinglin stood up.

"Henrik has arrived, go pick it up."

Immediately, after the two of them packed up, they went out of the door of the hotel.

Not much.

The group gathered.

Li Jinglin was a little uneasy.

When even asked again.

"I don't have an invitation, is that really okay?"

"No problem!"

Henrik replied quite decisively.

Xie Te, you are Li Jinglin, what kind of invitation do you want?

Even if you break in in the middle of the auction, people will have to respectfully make room for a C spot.

The whole world understands the gold content of "the first person in the international violin", but I am the only one who does not believe in it.

"Don't worry."

"Oh"

Li Jinglin nodded.

"Henrik, is there a piano you want this time?"

"Oh, of course!"

Henrik laughed.

"I heard that Stradivari's famous piano, [Ms. Blunt] will be in this auction."

"Sss

Li Jinglin raised his eyebrows.

"I remember auctioning this money a few years ago, and the transaction price was 15.8 million US dollars?"

"Yes, that's it!"

Henrik's words suddenly made Li Jinglin's heartbeat rate rise suddenly.

The violin has two famous flowers.

One is called Guarnelli and the other is Stradivari.

In terms of quality, both have their own merits, and they are almost equal.

But if it's the quantity.

The former has only one hundred and fifty, while the latter has six hundred and fifty.

There are 800 violins in total, but a considerable number of them are in the collections of some wealthy people or displayed in some national museums.

Other words.

This grade of famous piano is rare to see in some ordinary auctions.

And there is a handful of less.

Of course.

At this price, Li Jinglin just looked at it and enjoyed it.

"It's a good thing I didn't bring the students with me."

Li Jinglin pursed his lips.

I couldn't help but sigh.

One step at a time is orthodox, and if you bring students here now, I'm afraid it will be easy to shake the students' Dao hearts.

After all, Li Jinglin himself felt that under the temptation of Mingqin and the oppression of sky-high prices, his Dao heart was trembling slightly.

"Let's have a meal first, and when the auction starts, let's go early."

"Okay, I can't wait."

The group went to eat.

Leisurely came to this violin auction.

Tarisio。

Tasilio violin auction.

This auction house, which specializes in musical instruments and bows and arrows, is famous all over the world.

The instruments that appear in this auction house are among the best in the world.

"Hello, sir, please show the invitation."

"Please come here for capital verification."

Someone has already arrived early.

Wandering at the door.

Li Jinglin glanced up.

I don't know.

Not someone inside the industry.

Glancing at the middle-aged white man who was verifying his capital, Henrik whispered to Li Jinglin.

"There are a lot of rich people who come up at this kind of auction, and, if you look at it, they really don't mind giving it to a musician, because it's a sure investment for them."

"Even if they don't expect to return to their original capital, just giving money is a great attraction for them, after all, you know, if you can give a famous piano to a musician who can leave a name in history, they will also leave a name in history."

Li Jinglin nodded.

This is indeed normal.

Since ancient times, swords have been given to heroes.

Many of the hidden benefits are beyond the "sword" itself.

One or two hundred million is sky-high in the eyes of ordinary people, but for some really rich people, it is really a sprinkler.

Take one or two hundred million to invest in an opportunity that can remain in the history record.

For these rich people, it is a sure way to make money and not lose money.

"Li, you are the first person to play the violin in the world, if they know that you are here today, maybe people will rush to give you the piano."

"Huh? Not really. ”

Li Jinglin frowned.

These famous pianos have a high collection value.

Li Jinglin is not narcissistic enough to think that someone will go on the pole to give him the piano.

"Hum Hum Hum ~"

Henrik smiled and didn't speak.

But Henrik believed it too much.

The first person in the world, lacking the piano, is in his twenties this year.

If you don't invest, what are you waiting for?

If there is really a good enough piano to give to Li Jinglin, it will be able to be used for at least 40 years.

This moment in history, that is firm.

Maybe you can bring a pen to your textbook.

Even if you don't talk about it.

But whenever the news is released.

Your own company will benefit from this behavior.

Twenty or thirty million dollars is nothing.

"By the way, I really don't need an invitation?"

It's almost time to get to the door.

Li Jinglin was still a little uneasy, and couldn't help but ask again.

"Not really!"

Henrik felt that at this point, there was no need for explanation.

When he pulled Li Jinglin, he walked quickly to the entrance of Tarisio.

Seeing Li Jinglin, the waiter at the door of the auction house looked as usual and bowed respectfully.

He took a step back slightly, stretched out his hand, and said only a very short word.

"Please."

"Huh?"

Li Jinglin was stunned.

I can understand that there is no invitation.

But.

"Don't you want capital verification?"

Hearing Li Jinglin's words.

The corners of Henrik's eyes twitched.

The waiter's face was as usual, with a polite smile, bowed slightly, and stretched out his hand again to signal "please".

"Mr. Li, please come in."

"Don't worry, Mr. Li."

At this time, the rich man who had just finished inspecting his assets walked out.

Smiled and explained to Li Jinglin in English.

"Your face is the invitation, your technology is the biggest asset, this auction will be proud of you, you can come is our biggest surprise."

"I'm honored to be here with you."

The rich reach out.

Li Jinglin held it with him.

"It's overrated."

Immediately, he did not hesitate and walked to the auction venue.

There was a lot of space for the auction, but there weren't many people.

The total number of people in the large venues was less than 100.

Basically, they are rich and rich, or some musicians.

There are no private rooms.

But the area is very open, the seats are spacious, and the tea and wine are high-end and sufficient.

Except that there is no partition, it is no different from a private room.

Just entered the box.

Toria, the partner of the auction house, walked out in a hurry.

Head-on straight to Li Jinglin.

"Mr. Li! I was really pleasantly surprised to have you here. ”

"I even thought it was a joke by God."

grabbed Li Jinglin's hand.

Tolia felt her breath quicken.

Tarisio is indeed one of the most famous auction houses for musical instruments and bows and arrows.

There is no shortage of dealing with some famous people.

But.

There are only a handful of bigwigs like Li Jinglin who can be invited to the auction.

It's not easy.

When she learned that Li Jinglin was coming, Tolia couldn't help herself.

This is exactly the best advertisement for your own auction house!

Look, the first person in the world of violin, is also coming to our auction.

What could be more NB than this?!

At the same time as Tolia walked out, in his heart, he had already made a decision.

No matter what happened today, it was absolutely impossible to let Li Jinglin walk out of the auction house empty-handed!

"Come, Mr. Li, please be seated!"

Tolia was really fast.

The C position in the center of the auction was emptied and reserved for Li Jinglin.

In this position, you can even clearly see the texture of the wood and the lacquer surface on the auction instruments.

It is also the most intuitive feeling of timbre!

After Li Jinglin sat down.

Curiously looking around.

After all, this is my first time participating in the auction, and there is no shame in taking a closer look.

The real shame is that he has never participated in the auction, but he insists on pretending to be an old man.

People who can appear here will never laugh at others for what so-called "I haven't seen the world", after all, if I can come, it already represents my identity.

The easiest thing to be laughed at is simply "don't understand but pretend".

"Mr. Li, this is your first time at our auction, let me introduce you."

Tolia opened his mouth with a smile.

Not only did he not feel that there was a problem with Li Jinglin's curious gaze, but he even felt that "Look, our auction house can arouse Mr. Li Jinglin's curiosity, this decoration is not worth it?!" ”

There are many things that can't be installed, and after a certain point, they don't need to be installed.

As long as it's not particularly rude, some people will help you find reasons to make excuses.

"Since our auctions are often dominated by musical instruments, the acoustic decoration of the entire venue is also very exquisite."

"It's even comparable to any of the best concert halls in the world."

Li Jinglin looked carefully and really saw the reflector of the roof decoration.

After listening to the echo of Toria's voice at the scene, I couldn't help but light up in my eyes.

"This acoustic decoration is really good!"

"Shhh

Tolia was even more excited.

In the pink of health.

When even another decision has been made!

Today, the old man is going to clear the inventory!

So, after introducing Li Jinglin to the auction house, settling Li Jinglin, and finding a waiter to send expensive wine.

He confessed and went to the showroom next to the auction house.

Get the staff.

"Quick! Change the auction items temporarily, and I'm going to make a big wave today! ”

"Put on all the violin scraps!"

The Tarisio showroom is filled with precious musical instruments.

There are many types of these instruments.

Even if he sold all the violins today, it wouldn't have much impact on Tarisio.

But once Li Jinglin felt Tarisio's strength, and could boast a few words.

That's a lot of money!

Too many rich people like to vote for some artists, as long as Li Jinglin can sigh, it is conceivable that those rich people can definitely use green banknotes to smash themselves and not find the north.

The premium of the auction in the future is definitely beyond people's imagination.

"Take it all out?"

"Forget about the garbage, but the piano with an estimated value of more than 10 million US dollars cannot be less, and all of them will be taken out!"
