Chapter 320: : major buyers
As the voice of the old man fell, the two women also carefully took a picture and walked over.
This is the item numbered 7866547. It is a painting. According to the above introduction, the time of this oil painting is not too long, probably about a hundred years, but the person who painted this oil painting is still very famous. .
Henry Matisse, a famous French painter, founder and main representative of the Fauvist oil painting.
He is also a sculptor, printmaker, and a master who lived in modern times. He died only in 1954, so his oil painting value was not too high at first, but it has been very speculative in recent years. fire.
It has been said that he and Picasso are the two greatest painters of the twentieth century. They can be compared with Picasso. It is obvious that the value of his paintings is there. It is also a very good choice to use his paintings to make an opening.
When I saw this painting, I didn’t know what the ghost oil painting was. Jiang Hai couldn’t help but jump her eyebrows.
However, the guests of other tables were very heart-felt. At that time, many people studied it.
"The reserve price of this painting is 800,000 US dollars. Each time the price is not less than 50,000 US dollars, please ask for the price." At this time, the old man on the stage has already introduced the situation of this painting, and began to say Up, as his voice fell, someone in the distance had already raised a brand, 800,000, someone has already bid, but this price has not waited for a second, it was pressed by others.
80, 85, 90, 95, 100... Although no one directly calls high prices, each placard represents 50,000 US dollars.
Unconsciously, that is, about a minute or so, the price of this painting was fired to 1.6 million US dollars. At this time, the price of the price was slowed down, and the main competitors became the four or five. Look like that.
"These are all very powerful existences, and they are the main potential buyers of your armor for a while." When Jiang Hai was there to watch the fun, the head of Phillips walked to Jiang Hai with a smile. Sitting at this table, sitting next to Jiang Hai.
"Oh? How?" Jiang Hai is bored here, he didn't mind letting the person in charge explain it to his side.
After all, he is also participating in such an auction for the first time. It is inevitable that there is no bottom in the heart.
"The main potential buyer for your armor this time is the four waves. The first wave is the Arab at 103." Pointing at the table in front of Jiang Hai, the person in charge said softly.
"Dufamen?" Jiang Hai still remembers the situation of this person, can not help but whispered.
"Oh? Do you know him?" When Jiang Hai knew his name, the person in charge could not help but look at him unexpectedly.
"I can't count on knowing. I used to have a side with him when I bought a yacht. I just introduced each other's names." Shake his head and use Jiang Hai's guidelines to see twice. It is not really understanding.
"Oh, then I will introduce you to you. This Dufamen-Vija-Muhammad-Ben-Rashid-Al-Markum is not an ordinary person. His father was originally the third generation of the Three Princes of Dubai. It is a brother to the present king, but he did not inherit the throne, but he was assigned to a large number of oil fields. This is his only legal heir now. Now the defense minister of Dubai is his sister, the tourism minister is his uncle, he The main problem of managing food is the real local tyrant." Listening to the introduction of this person in charge, Jiang Hai can not help but have some accidents. I don't think that this young man who looks like a young man is really a local tyrant.
"There are also three forces, one is the Spaniard. Your armor is the armor of Spain's Philip III. Fortunately, your armor doesn't know where it came from. If you got it from some shipwrecks, It is estimated that they have already jumped. "The Spanish people's reputation in the world has not been very good, especially in the shipwreck, although Spain is located in the EU, but in fact their living standards, really with the domestic They can't be too much, and good is good for welfare.
Others, whether income, medical care, public facilities, etc., are not too different from the first-tier cities in China.
Of course, compared with some second- and third-line, even rural areas, they still have a big advantage. After all, the country is not big.
"There are still a wave of people, those people, those who are Soviet Russian businessmen, the real giants. In this world, except for the Chinese people, the only ones who live in harmony with the local tyrants in the Middle East." After the introduction of the Spaniards, this is responsible The man pointed to the other side, where he sat on a table with a big back and a white man with a big nose.
Jiang Hai’s home is in the Ice City. There are many Soviet Russian girls in Ice City. Of course, there are also some men. Jiang Hai is no stranger to Soviets.
"The last wave of the ability to buy is the Englishman over there. The British have a hatred with the Spaniard. All of this people know, so for this armor, they will not easily get the Spaniard back. In the end, the person in charge introduced a table in the corner of the farthest, and the table was British.
Looking at the four waves of people, Jiang Hai shrugged. He was not interested in these people, as long as he could make him earn more. Who are these people and what they do, have nothing to do with him.
When the person in charge introduced these businesses, the first oil painting was successfully auctioned out.
In the end, the price of this oil painting was 3.7 million US dollars, which is not particularly high, but it is definitely not low.
It was the group of Soviets that the responsible person pointed out just now that the oil painting was bought. The Far East giants are not called to play.
After the first piece of work was auctioned off, the second piece of work attracted Jiang Hai’s spit. If the first Fauvist painting was at least seen, what was it, the second pair Painting is an inexplicable thing.
It’s like having a child, holding the paint on the cloth...
However, this painting was sought after, even higher than the first pair, the final transaction price was 4.1 million US dollars.
Ok, this world is too crazy, Jiang Hai really wants to understand, this is the legendary art?
At least these people buy a picture and go back. You have to know what is drawn on this picture. What is this picture? Ghost?
After the end of the Tucao, Jiang Hai was lazy to pay attention to the meeting, and the auction was still there.
The third piece is a set of medieval furniture, which is also useful. Finally, it took 3.2 million. It is difficult to understand. This set of mahogany furniture, the result is not worth the ghost painting, people are very speechless. .
The fourth one is a clay pot, the fifth one is a weapon. It is said that Napoleon once took it, but the weapon that Napoleon had taken is that this thing is not too valuable, but it is finally the highest. The price, sold a total of 9.6 million US dollars, was bought by the Soviet Union's amnesty, if the Soviet Union's big brothers are the most worthy of showing off their achievements.
That is two, one of which was the time of World War II, blocking the record of the German flash battle with one's own strength.
The forced Germany had to open up the southern record and invade Africa, because the Soviet Russia could not really fight this.
Another achievement, when Napoleon swept Europe, knew that Napoleon was almost a point, and unified all of Europe, and finally fell on the head of Soviet Russia, so Napoleon's collection is still very valuable in Soviet Russia.
The auction continued, and soon the first collection of Jiang Hai was the pair of blue and white porcelain bottles. In the end, the porcelain bottle sold 1.65 million US dollars. The auction house still earned some money. After all, it was auctioned in Miami. Only need to pay 35% of the national tax, that is, 577,500 US dollars is to be taxed, in addition to what they earn.
Of course, big auction houses like them are naturally exempted. It is estimated that it will be almost 500,000.
In addition to giving Jiang Hai a million, they also earned more than 100,000, which is a small profit.
After this pair of blue and white porcelain bottles, Jiang Hai has been somewhat distracted, because he is not too interested in the things behind.
There may be many differences in the culture of the East and the West. At least Jiang Hai does not think that these things deserve to be too concerned about him.
After fifteen things that were taken, Jiang Hai just looked at it with a thick look, and there was no such thing as him.
After more than an hour, I came to the last collection, which is the finale of the evening, Jiang Hai’s gold armor of Philip III. As the auctioneer’s voice fell, there were also two brawny, carrying A huge box came over.
As the box opened, the armor inside appeared in front of everyone.
There is no need for the auctioneer to say anything more, the armor is bright, and almost everyone is amazed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the armor in front of him, the auctioneer slowly walked over: "I don't need to say much, I think everyone is basically coming to this armor, Philip III, although in the history of Europe, Fame is not particularly good, but he is the man who once ruled the entire Atlantic Ocean. The value of his collection of this armor, we don’t need to say much, I think the experts in the room know that this armor is auctioned. 100 million US dollars, but each time a price increase of one million US dollars ..."
"130 million!" But his voice has not yet fallen, it has been interrupted by the following voice, looking at the eyes of everyone, it is found that the price of the one on the table in Spain They are very anxious to see it.
"150 million." But unfortunately, not all people will give them face, at least according to the person in charge, the other three who have the ability to compete this evening will not easily let go of this collection, so The British side first bid.
"200 million." But we have not waited for everyone to slow down, and the Soviet giants over there lifted their hands.
"Hey!" Although I felt that I was far from Jiang Hai’s estimated price, but the competition was so fierce at the beginning, I still had some surprises, and Jiang Hai’s mouth was unconsciously opened. Call it, call it. The higher he is, the happier he is!
