Chapter 0648 – Auction (III)

Huangfu Yun in the international auction market in this circle, the head is considered quite familiar, especially with Chinese cultural relics auction, he participated in a lot of these years, so at home and abroad like to collect Chinese antiques some collectors, most of them know.

Before the auction began, Huangfu Yun strung together a lot of people, ready to boycott the Chinese art auction held in Paris, at least not to let the foreigners with the rolling beads in the plate of their own.

Huangfu cloud skewer effect, I should say is still good, in yesterday’s auction, real only three pieces, the rest of the more than ten pieces of antiques are some blonde blue-eyed foreigners to the auction, we see in the eyes, the heart is also clear.

But yesterday the reason for that situation, and the auctioneer control is not strong have a certain relationship, but with yesterday’s auction of cultural relics of the category also has a certain relationship, yesterday’s auction of most of some of the more cold, such as swords and bamboo carvings and wood carvings and teeth and horns and other objects, the collection of these people is not much, so the abortive object more, also in the sense of the reason.

But today Jefferson made the adjustment, so that the crowd was somewhat caught off guard, and this “pure hui concubine bust” of the starting price, and low outrageous, even if the original did not belong to this painting today, but also by the price of the people were incited to go out to fight for it.

“400,000 euros ……”

“480,000 euros ……”

“620,000, I bid 620,000 euros.”

The price war in the field is still continuing, the bottom auction price is only 100,000 euros “pure hui noble princess bust” oil painting, now has risen six times more, and look at this trend, no one is willing to give in, the price is still continuing to rise.

“Damn, this Jefferson has a hand! Worthy of being the auction house’s white glove.”

Huangfu Yun could not help but curse in a low voice when he saw that those collectors who had sworn to him a few days ago that they would never make a bid, had now spelled out their faces and necks.

“Brother Huangfu, this won’t work! I’m afraid that if we lift it any further, we won’t be able to beat the 2 million euros.”

Zhuang Rui’s eyebrows also wrinkled, in fact, Zhuang Rui would have wanted to make a bid, only before he thought about it, the price was like a rocket, bursting up.

“780,000 euros, buyer number 123 bid 780,000 euros, there is no friend bid? If there is no one to bid, we have to congratulate buyer number 123, to know, this painting after our professional assessment, the value is to be above 1 million euros.”

In the shout to 780,000 euros, the auction hall became silent, but Jefferson is not in a hurry, this phenomenon is very normal, as long as someone calls the last price, immediately as just now, the crowd will make a bid.

If no one really called the price, the following is not still sitting in their own trust, right? So Jefferson continued to use language to seduce the crowd, he said the truth, Lang Shining’s piece of work, the lowest evaluation price is 1.2 million euros.

“800,000 euros.”

Finally, after more than a minute of silence on the stage, someone else started to call for a price, but this time the range of the call was only 20,000 euros, these buyers on the stage, also want to use the lowest price to take this painting.

In the auction to grab things, not only to fight with the auctioneer, but also to figure out the stage bidding counterparts of the psychology, only out of the price is not low nor high, slightly more than the psychological price of others a little bit of time, it is possible to use the most appropriate price to shoot their favorite items.

“Okay, buyer number 132 bid 800,000 euros, that friend who wants to bid again?”

Hearing someone raise the price, Jefferson’s heart was happy, this is not even use their own TO go up, complete the auction is absolutely no problem.

This painting auction house to Jefferson set the task is 1.2 million euros, as long as the price is beyond this, high out of the amount, he is a commission, now Jefferson confident that he can shoot this painting out of 2 million euros of the sky.

Generally speaking, according to the routine, a price tag of 1.2 million euros in the auction, the starting price should not be less than 500,000 euros, Jefferson forcefully argued for 100,000 yuan to start auction, he is still under a lot of pressure.

But on the current situation, Jefferson’s heart completely relaxed, he has successfully controlled the situation, the next question is, how much can he shoot this painting over the booking price?

“I’ll bid 1.2 million euros, in terms of the value of this curio itself, this price should be more than fair, if someone else bids again, I doubt if that person is a trust arranged by the auction house? This thing is when the French Frey snatched away, the incompetence of the Qing Dynasty let us these descendants to pay for them, I can buy this painting back, but can not be blackmailed by certain ulterior motives again. I think that we can’t let these foreign devils, who used guns to open the door of our country more than a hundred years ago, now use the objects that were robbed at that time to plunder the wealth that belongs to us.”

Suddenly, a clear and powerful voice, resounded in the auction hall, in addition to the offer of 1.2 million euros is said in English, the rest of the words, are said in Chinese, the words of the ground, echoed for a long time in the large auction hall.

Everyone understands the reasoning, but no one has ever said such words in the auction site, these words let all the Chinese in the field are all shocked, can not help but have to stand up, to the direction of the sound to look at.

The person who just stood up and spoke was Zhuang Rui, at this time Zhuang Rui calmly arched his hand to the four sides, and sat back down again, without any expression on his face, neither angry nor happy.

“Who is this young man?”

“I don’t know, so young! Like he came with Huangfu Yun, turn around and inquire.”

“I look at this person a bit familiar, like I’ve seen him somewhere.”

“Hey, China’s a big country. You’ve seen everyone?”

“Anyone who can afford to pay 1.2 million euros, or more than 10 million yuan, should be a bit of a big shot, so I’m not going to bid on this painting.”

“I won’t bid either. What’s the point of robbing your own people?”

“Yes, it’s cheap for foreigners for nothing, I won’t bid for this painting either.”

After the sound of Zhuang Rui’s words came to mind, the field suddenly became noisy, everyone is expressing their own opinions, there are also many people inquiring about Zhuang Rui’s origin, but Zhuang Rui seldom appeared in the auction house, so there are not many people know him.

But although no one knows Zhuang Rui, but does not mean that they will not judge the correctness of Zhuang Rui’s words, this painting as Zhuang Rui said, the highest value should be in the 1.2 million euros or so, if they raise the price, it is indeed a favor to the auction house.

Even if some originally interested in this painting, and financial strength of the people, after hearing the words of Zhuang Rui, but also embarrassed to raise the price, if they raise the price again, it is possible to be pointed at the spine.

Of course, there are some people doubt Zhuang Rui said these words of motivation, whether it is so that others can not raise the price, but who let their own did not think of this method? Now can only pinch the nose to recognize.

For a while, these Chinese buyers in the field, without any communication, reached a consensus, that is, no one will continue to shoot this “pure hui noble consort bust” oil painting.

“Gentlemen, ladies, please be quiet, please be quiet for a moment, buyer number 156 is bidding 1.2 million euros, please is there any friend to raise the bid, repeat, buyer number 156 is bidding 1.2 million euros, please is there any friend to raise the bid?”

Jefferson standing in front of the auction table only understood Zhuang Rui’s previous offer, but the Chinese behind, he did not understand a word, but Zhuang Rui’s words caused a stir in the venue, Jefferson felt some bad in his heart, he estimated that Zhuang Rui should not have said anything good just now.

Sure enough, after Jefferson stopped the discussion under the stage, no matter what he said, the Chinese buyers under the stage, but none of them are willing to raise their hands again, the smile on Jefferson’s face, also became a little stiff.

“Quickly go to check, I need 156 buyer’s information, and, just now he said something, immediately help me translate out.”

Jefferson slightly sidestepped his head and inclined his mouth over the microphone on the auction stage, using the miniature microphone hanging on his ear, he communicated with the organizing committee of this auction, yesterday Zhuang Rui did not participate in the auction, that’s why Jefferson didn’t pay too much attention to this auction number.

“Older brother, awesome, awesome ah!”

Sitting next to Zhuang Rui Huangfu Yun, also did not expect Zhuang Rui will suddenly get up and make such a speech, for two or three minutes did not react, until the field became quiet, only after the thumbs up to Zhuang Rui.

See Zhuang Rui some words said, the stage of the “white gloves” auctioneer, face becomes extremely ugly, under the stage of the Chinese collectors, are in a great mood.

Just now a moment of carelessness, was that foreign devil provoke each other bidding, now back to God, naturally know themselves and others in that foreign devil’s plan, now see Jefferson defeat, the heart is naturally very comfortable.

“Zhuang Rui, this painting is worth so much money?”

Qin Xuan Bing asked in a whisper beside, Qin Xuan Bing also know Zhuang Rui recently tight, 1.2 million euros, that is more than 12 million yuan.

“It’s worth it, within 2 million euros, it’s worth it.”

Zhuang Rui whispered back, although the place where he sat, the distance from the booth is relatively far, but still within the scope of observation of the aura, Zhuang Rui has long been through the aura to detect the authenticity of the painting, is indeed from the hands of Lang Shining’s authentic.

Lang Shining’s oil paintings, according to China’s cultural relics classification, absolutely can be assessed as the second level of protection of cultural relics, Zhuang Rui’s museum is now penniless, for these objects will not let go.
