On October 11, the 21st Century Hotel.
This hotel is a joint investment of the Chinese and Japanese governments and is unique. It is adjacent to the embassy area and very close to the visa halls of the United States and Japan.
"Didi!"
A Mercedes 560 and a Crown 133 parked at the door. The waiter pulled the door, and boss Li and boss Xu got off the bus. In a formal suit, enter the building together and find the Century Theatre at the China-Japan Youth Exchange Center.
The police were all the way, checking the invitations at the door and arranging seats.
"Gentleman Black! Will you give this for $ 450?"
Li Chengru opened the gift bag, which contained some commemorative books and small gifts.
"Approve the qualifications, if you have no money, you will not be allowed to enter."
Xu Fei fiddled with the invitation and felt too black.
Today ’s venue is called the Beijing International Auction, and it ’s the first time in China that a few months ago it began to publicize.
Yesterday the newspaper even published the titles of UC Shock, such as "The First Auction in 40 Years, 2000 Worlds of Treasures", "Five hundred World Tycoons Gathering in Beijing, Fisting Hands to Prepare for Chasing Treasures".
Media from all over the world has heard the news, and Japan is the most lively, because the Emperor's visit to China this month accompanied a large number of reporters. The city government of Beijing also sent observers to see what kind of reaction would happen when this tentative balloon was lifted ...
Invitation cards equal to tickets, each 450 US dollars. Not only the two of them, but also many rich people from Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas.
Teacher Xu took the time to participate, but turned over the auction catalog and found a lot of good things, saying: "Hey, don't grab it with me later."
"I don't want the chicks, you give my girlfriend?"
"none of your business!"
He turned over again, almost shocked, there were actually two red flag cars and an artistic tapestry of "Grandpa Mao Goes to Anyuan".
Sure enough it was open! If before, who would dare to sell this thing?
After waiting for a while, there were more and more people, and all the people in Beijing had their heads and faces, and they greeted each other. In fact, they are all in circles, never participated.
"Mr. Chen!"
Xu Fei suddenly shouted, and the man walked back, "Mr. Xu, I am glad to be here!"
It was Chen Dongsheng who had a close relationship.
"Aren't you a research scholar, how did you come to the auction?"
"Fresh things are called learning, this is the first scene in China, of course, to see and see."
Chen Dongsheng shook the reporter's card on his chest and smiled: "The specifications are not small today. I heard that more than one hundred policemen were invited and 72 translators."
"Well, the settlement must be in US dollars!"
Li Chengru nodded his head, and Huamei Dao was right to his taste.
At ten o'clock, the auction begins.
The host came up with a large series of Barabara, "This time there are 2020 lots in total for four days. We are fortunate enough to invite Mr. Zhang Zongxian, a famous Hong Kong collector, to visit us and invite Mr. Wenwen Hu to preside over the auction. Mr. Hu is known as the first hammer in Hong Kong ..."
After the procedure, enter the topic.
The Mr. Hu was lean, his eyes were shining, and there was no nonsense.
Miss Etiquette brought out a box, a wall pattern of the warring States period.
Xu Fei glanced at it and was not interested. He listened to the scattered shouts around him. It was about ten rounds and shouted to $ 10,500.
"Is there anything added?"
"the second time?"
"the third time?"
When Mr. Hu raised his mallet, more than a hundred cameras and video cameras were aligned to capture this historical shot.
Nowadays, China is the Western diorama, and interested in a bit of wind and grass, they are all treated as their new things.
As a result, the mallet fell, and people said: "I'm sorry, this lot was taken back by the seller because it didn't reach the client's reserve price. This auction is invalid."
Buzz!
There was a lot of confusion underneath, and there was much discussion. Upon seeing this, Mr. Hu briefly discussed with the organizing committee personnel and further explained: "The seller's reserve price is 110 million US dollars. When it is not reached, he has the right to withdraw the auction."
The reporter was depressed and Bai was excited.
Followed by the second piece, "Baiyulong String Flower Tiles in the Early Ming Dynasty".
The jade tile refers to the jade piece, the small one is set on the belt, and the big one is set on Ruyi. The white jade dragon string flower is a piece of jade carved into a dragon shape and carved out.
Two fingers are long and one finger is wide, gentle and transparent, without flaws.
"Starting at $ 100 ... Oh, Mr. No. 4, $ 120. Is there anything to add?"
"Ms. 103, $ 150."
"Mr. 68, $ 180."
Xu Fei looked at his number plate, number 404, and raised it casually, "200!"
"Okay, Mr. 404 has increased the price again, is there any?"
After more than ten rounds, Xu Fei shouted to 700 and finally 123 raised his hammer.
brush! The reporter raised his long guns and short cannons again, and saw Mr. Hu's snapping, which did not disappoint. "Congratulations to Mr. 404, who won the first lot in this auction!"
Click, click!
In the trough, Teacher Xu was startled by the white light that struck him instantly, and his eyes were almost blind. Li Chengru was frustrated while stalling, "Brother has no problem, headline! Headline!"
Following this, several lots were sold, and several were sold.
For example, there are three pipa made of Burmese gemstones and African ebony wood. One is called "Green Pearl" and is set with 592 emeralds.
Each one is valued at 1 million US dollars ... This thing is not even bought by the upstart, it is already so popular that it exceeds the bottom line of the upstart.
...
"No. 404, $ 50,000!"
"No. 405, $ 55,000!"
"60000!"
"65,000!"
"Is your special lady sick?"
"Your special lady is sick!"
"If you are ill, put down the card."
"It's okay to put it down, you give me Zhang Liu's Zhang Liu."
"Fuck!"
Li Chengru said fiercely, "80,000!"
The whole audience was shocked. Teacher Xu stared at the eyes, you are awesome!
"100,000!"
Li Chengru also stared at the beads, you are stupid!
"110,000!"
You are more stupid, I will not follow.
Xu Feiyan died down.
The crowd applauded thunderously. In the end, Lao Li won a painting by Ren Biannian for US $ 110,000.
"..."
The two looked at each other, and they both lamented, alas, it's no longer the eighties that missed.
After fighting in the morning, three gentlemen stood out: No. 404, No. 405 and No. 2.
It is not that others have no money, but they are not willing to smash it. Each of these three bought five or six pieces. I heard that they are a Taiwanese businessman on the 2nd.
"The next one, and the last one in the morning, is provided by Tongjue in the Western Zhou Dynasty provided by the Beijing Cultural Relics Shop."
Mr. Hu displayed objects and said, "Produced from the 11th century BC to 771 BC, it is 21.5 cm high and 6.5 cm wide. It is a bronze high-cone wine glass.
Deep abdomen, round bottom, there are three flat round feet, three pillars standing on the mouth, several cirrus moire carved on the pillar. There are three string patterns printed on the abdomen, and the inscription ‘内’ is engraved on the jue column, which is suspected as the family name, so it is called Nei Tong Jue. "
"Starting at $ 4,000!"
"5 thousand!" No. 2 said immediately.
"Are you either?"
"I do not like."
"Six thousand!"
Teacher Xu immediately raised the card, followed by No. 2, and broke 20,000 in a few rounds.
Only the two of them were left on the field, and their hands didn't let go. Xu Fei's blood is boiling, this is what the auction should look like!
The protagonist bids with others in turn, the other side loses, afterwards he wants to kill people and seize the treasure, instead he is killed by the protagonist ...
"100,000!"
Calling this number in one breath, No. 2 was obviously hesitant, and his hand stopped suddenly.
"Okay, congratulations to Mr. 404. I have another treasure!"
The audience applauded again. The mainland digs were eye-opening for the first time, exciting and irritating.
Chen Dongsheng looked here and remembered clearly, Xu Fei took a total of six photos:
White jade dragon string flower tiles in early Ming Dynasty, 700 US dollars; white jade monkey ornaments, 800 US dollars; mahogany inlaid marble four screens in early Qing Dynasty, 8000 US dollars; Qing Dynasty hand-painted rare book "Legend of Legends", 25,000 US dollars; Qianlong powder Cai Sanlian bottle, US $ 80,000; Tongjue in the Western Zhou Dynasty, US $ 100,000.
In the morning, more than 200,000 US dollars went in.
Does he have so many dollars? And it seems very understandable.
To be honest, Chen Dongsheng was able to hold back in the first half of the year, and was already ready to move in the second half. He doesn't understand much, but he thinks it is very promising to engage in an auction house in China.
Today's investigation was really enthusiastic.
The host announced a break above, and at noon, Chen Dongsheng glanced at Xu Fei again as the people left.
…………
Mr. Xu took part in the auction while he was busy, and then it really smelled.
At the end of the evening, pay for the goods that day.
In the hall, he was wondering how to pull the four screens back, and there was a clatter next to it, and a set of books was scattered. The staff of the Chinese bookstore was busy: "Sorry, Mr. Xu, we will deal with it immediately!"
As they said, they crouched on the ground and books.
The reporter hurriedly smelled and surrounded him.
"Mr. Xu, how do you feel about participating in this auction?"
"Are you out of the art center?"
"I heard you started your own company. Do you want to do antique business?"
"How do you like this set of books?"
Xu Fei ignored everything and only answered the last one, "Uh, I also introduced it on the spot. This set of" Legend of the Immortals "is a rare book, a total of eight volumes, and 192 Taoist immortals were painted by hand, and 288 words Every immortal has a unique design and a clever design. I naturally like it. "
Upon hearing this, the reporters turned to the staff who were bundling. "How can such books be sold?"
No one looked up. "We are an enterprise and we have to eat."
He paused and whispered: "I won't see this book in the future."
Hey!
Teacher Xu is unhappy. Why do you feel so sad? I look like a villain?
These things are painful, and "Legends of Legends" has no cultural relic value, it is rare. Rather than putting ash in the library, it is better to collect (bi) zhuang.
