Chapter 130: Drop hammer

Wang Bo heard the introduction of the white gloves, and the train model was not small enough.
The name of the train model is "Jim-Bim-JB-Turner Train". It is made of stainless steel and has a total length of two and a half meters. It contains bourbon whiskey. It was made by a well-known American modeler. The starting price is 9.5 million lower than the gold statue.
The competition for this train model is not fierce. Only two people quoted it, and the second person successfully won the train model. Wang Bo remembered that the man was named Battier Goode and was the president of Westpac Bank New Zealand.
Although this auction is called the Castle Auction, the actual lot is not just those provided by Wang Bo. Christie's has mobilized more than ten other lots, and the train model is one of them.
The next appearance is still a gold statue, this time the gold statue is the legend of the Indian goddess in the forest, the craft is slightly worse than the statue of Hercules.
As a result, the price of this gold statue was higher than that of Hercules, and it actually sold for 14.5 million.
Wang Bo asked Lier why, and Lier laughed: "It's very simple, the texture of the statue of the mountain goddess is more pure than the gold used by the statue of Hercules."
After hearing this, Pharaoh almost spit out stomach acid, and these collectors seemed quite practical.
The auction will be carried out in an orderly manner. The transaction price of the lot will be higher than Christie's estimate. The last remaining is Patek Philippe's legendary pocket watch, which is also the final lot.
Speaking of which, the specifications of this auction are still relatively low, such as the Paris spring auction of Wang Bo ’s "Sacred Poems", and the final transaction price reached US $ 500 million, and the lottery used at that time was Bacon The "John Edwards Portrait Triptych" sold for a high price of $ 75 million.
In the final battle, the white gloves showed a palm-sized giant gold pocket watch and said in a high-pitched voice: "The most precious time in the world is nothing but the great Dante once said-the smartest person is the one who is least willing to waste time. . "
"Well, gentlemen, I don't need to say anything. Next, we are going to make a quotation for the Patek Philippe legend watch. The starting price is 30 million yuan. Each time the price increase is 1 million yuan, please quote ..."
After hearing the offer, Wang Bo's heart jumped, Christie's was really bold. Adams told him that the estimated price of the pocket watch was NZ $ 30 million. I did not expect them to set the estimated price directly as the starting price.
This price is obviously no pressure for the financial predators or collectors present. The offer has just dropped, and someone immediately followed.
One person's arm has not fallen yet, another person raised it, and then two others raised their arms and raised the auction price by 35 million!
Even though Pharaoh watched more of the auction quotation scenes today, he still got excited at this moment. He clenched the armrest tightly with both hands and stared at the sidelines with eyes full of anxiety. Come on! "
As Adams said, this legendary pocket watch is valuable to collectors. Not only is it fully functional and expensive, it also has a legend on it.
This Pharaoh cannot understand. Although he does not believe in gods and Buddhas, he does not believe that there are some forces in the world that cannot be explained by science, such as the heart of the lord.
In this case, the three owners who have collected this famous watch have died one after another. Why do people still willingly spend a lot of money to collect it?
It can only be said that the spirit of death is immortal, of course, Wang Bo hopes that the more people who die, the better.
At least a quarter of the more than one hundred people who participated in the auction were interested in this legendary pocket watch, but they were only interested and not too determined with determination. Adams gave him an analysis, which affected the pocket watch. Cap price.
Therefore, when the offer price reached 35 million, almost all auctioneers participating in the auction withdrew, and a middle-aged white man with glasses was waiting for the result.
At this time, the bank president who had previously photographed the train model raised his hand again and said in a low voice: "36 million!"
Wang Bo's eyes suddenly turned on. He could see that the president raised his hand very firmly, which represented his determination.
The white man in the glasses turned back and smiled slightly at the bank president and raised his hand again: "37 million!"
"38 million!" The bank president immediately followed without hesitation.
Pharaoh secretly whispered, whispering, "Will Westpac Bank not be the CEO's house? Hey, he is too rich."
Lyle smiled and said, "Of course it is impossible. Westpac is one of the four largest banks in Oceania, but the Good family holds a lot of shares. This family has great energy in New Zealand's financial sector. Of course they have money."
Seeing the firm offer of the bank president, the white man in glasses shook his head and did not follow up. Of course, the others did not mean to wrestle with this overbearing president.
The price had satisfied White Gloves, and he shouted in a loud voice: "This gentleman is bidding 38 million! This gentleman is bidding 38 million! Is there a higher offer? 38 million the first time……"
"38 million second time! Second time!"
"38 million, the third time! OK, let us congratulate Mr. Good with warm applause, this legendary watch has since belonged to him!"
The president stood up and gestured politely to the people around him, with no sorrow and expression on his face. It seemed that winning this pocket watch was not worth the excitement.
"Paralysis, this is the attitude of the top rich." Pharaoh admired, if the invisible pretense is the most deadly, the overbearing president is the of killers.
The auction came to an end, and nearly twenty lots were sold. After the end, everyone applauded, and white gloves went forward and bowed.
Lyle explained to Wang Bo that this applause was given to White Gloves. Congratulations on his record of no consecutive auctions in 20 consecutive auctions. For their industry, this is a supreme glory.
The rest of the work will be related to Wang Bo. The auction is over and the settlement phase is entered.
The settlement phase of an auction is very complicated, including the settlement of the buyer, the settlement of other bidders except the buyer, the settlement of the client, the accounting of the auctioneer, and the filing and filing of auction data.
Adams and Lyle took Wang Bo to a room prepared in advance, and the completed lots were in it. Each lot had the winner's signature on it.
The next step is the payment. The buyer and the winner need to pay two parts, one is the lot price, and the other is the commission paid to the auction house.
Christie's has prepared a transfer document for these lots. Wang Bo and Adams, Lyle, and White Gloves all need to sign it, and Christie's will also provide a legal proof of the lot.
I have no responsibility to recommend it. I recommend a friend's book, The Superstar of Rebirth, and the entertainment stream of other worlds. Those who are interested can check it out.
