Chapter 1001: . Eva gem (2/5)

In the white world, people love rubies as a symbol of love, enthusiasm and noble character, a symbol of glory.
After the gem was discovered, the earliest European Gemological Association set ruby ​​as "July Birthstone", and July is a symbol of nobility, love, and benevolence. Many people choose to marry in July.
Of course, Wang Bo knows that Europeans choose to marry in July because the weather in July is the best, warm but not hot, windy but not fierce.
However, this tradition continues, and July has a special meaning, and the value of the birthstone in July is naturally rising.
To this day, the royal family still uses ruby ​​as a testimony to their marriage. For example, at the British royal wedding that ended before, Prince William's chest strap was equipped with a chicken blood ruby, while the central bud of the flower held by Princess Katy was embellished with pink ruby.
"This set of ruby ​​jewelry has not been named yet. According to convention, its first owner enjoys the official naming right. Please invite all the VIPs who cherish the other half of life to bid!"
"The starting price is 1 million yuan! The minimum price increase each time must not be less than 100,000 yuan!"
As soon as the white gloves were quoted, a middle-aged man in the front row picked up: "Two million!"
"Two and a half million!"
"2.6 million!"
"2.7 million!"
"three million!"
Prices soared fast, two million to three million, just half a minute.
Ye Qipeng smiled bitterly: "Brother Wang, it may be difficult for you to get this set of jewelry today. This auction company will also really play, and even took the naming right to attract customers."
The naming right of jewelry is more attractive to women than the jewelry itself!
Because of the rules of world power struggle, it is too difficult for a woman to leave her own name in history through the official, of course, such as Pan Jinlian and Ma Xuan are not counted. This is a good name, not an insult.
But if they can name a set of jewelry, then they can achieve their purpose, especially if the set of jewelry is still very valuable, and then flowed away, their names will spread more widely.
For example, the most famous "Carmen-Lucia Stone" in ruby ​​history, Carmen-Lucia is a wife of a jewelry collector Pete Buck, and they are very loving.
When she first heard of this ruby ​​in 2002, she was very yearning, hoping to have a chance to find a side. But the illness quickly claimed her life. She died of cancer in 2003.
Her beloved husband, Peter Barker, was very sad. In order to fulfill his wife's last wishes, he bought the gem with a large sum of money, named it after his wife, and eventually donated it to the museum.
There is still something on the projection screen that is related to this matter. Pete Barker bought a ruby ​​and said in an interview: Love never waits, this is the word that stimulates these men.
Wang Bo understands all of this, but he is bound to get this set of jewelry. Eva likes this jewelry. This is the first time he has seen Eva like a piece of jewelry so much.
The price climbed from three million to five million, and the first auction climax was about to occur.
Wang Bo did not move until the price rose to 7.5 million, when almost everyone withdrew, he suddenly raised his sign: "Eight million!"
In the final battle for this ruby ​​jewelry, the price was increased by one hundred thousand and one hundred thousand, and he raised it by one hundred thousand one time, which was still a little shocking.
Those who can reach the Christie's autumn auction must be rich, but the money of the rich is not printed by the money printing machine. They spend money generously, but are more cautious when they are unnecessary.
Needless to say, the auction item is now in its final stage, which is an unnecessary stage.
After Wang Bo offered the price of eight million, many people's eyes were attracted. Some people in the front row looked back and saw the demure Eva beside him with a stunned expression.
Another handsome young man applauded Wang Bo with a smile and congratulated him.
The middle-aged man who quoted 7.5 million shook his head and withdrew from the competition, and suddenly raised the price by 500,000, and the opponent was a passionate young man. He felt that there was no need to compete.
Three quotes for white gloves, this set of jewelry belongs to Wang Bo.
Because this lot is obviously linked to love, the people at the scene cooperated very well, and all applauded. For these white people, love and chivalry are always their favorite things.
Wang Bo and Eva stood up and thanked each other. Adams-Georgetown came onto the court and asked very coquettishly: "Sir, now you have the right to name this ruby ​​jewelry, please name this jewelry. . "
Wang Bo said: "My fiancee's name is Irina Sharapova, and I want to name it Eva."
Applause rang again, and several people around him stood up and shook hands with him and congratulated Eva.
The auction of ruby ​​jewellery is over, and the first climax is over.
Lots that appeared later were more valuable, but received less attention.
After a Chinese auction item came out, Ye Qipeng and Yang Zhilong straightened their backs.
This auction is called Weng Yunlong's Topaz Brush Wash. It turned out to be used by Huang Tingjian, a famous calligrapher and writer in the Northern Song Dynasty. Of course, he used it a lot during his lifetime.
Yang Zhilong introduced to Wang Bo: "This wash is carved from topaz. You may hesitate to receive the influence of Tu Qin. It has a waxy luster on the outside. The result after parenting. "
This brush wash, even without the background culture bonus, is excellent in appearance only. It shows the shape of a dragon boat as a whole, the lines vary, the work is quite delicate, the knife is powerful, and the lines are smooth, giving people the feeling of returning in the wind. .
"We came for this national treasure. This wash originally belonged to a great Confucian, but was taken away by an American when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China. We want to take it back." Ye Qipeng said solemnly.
After showing this pen wash, the auction company began to quote, and the starting price was directly 6 million, and the increase was not less than 200,000 each time.
This is settled, there will be Chinese people to buy this artwork.
However, brush washing is indeed very valuable, and some white people have also raised their prices, and the price has soared step by step, reaching 8 million. Wang Bo previously took the price of ruby ​​jewelry.
Yang Zhilong raised the price, and someone followed the price. After the price reached NZ $ 10 million, Ye Qipeng shook his head and said regretfully: "Today we can only miss it. Our base price has arrived."
Eva raised an eyebrow at him and gave him a hint. Wang Bo moved in his heart and said: "Continue to increase the price, the following counts as mine, let's take it together!"
