In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian died down, chatting with a few people around him in a low voice, and started to watch.
His intention to shoot was very obvious, the effect was really good, and he completely achieved the goal.
Competition has become more and more fierce, and substantial price increases have finally begun to appear.
Affected by the fiery competitive atmosphere, those bidders who are interested in this set of antique furniture have suddenly become a little irrational, and their bids have become blind and impulsive!
In a round of bidding, the quotation of this antique furniture continued to climb upwards, and it gradually slowed down until it exceeded $350,000.
At this time, most of the bidders have withdrawn from the competition, and only two of them are still bidding.
These two bidders are also close to their limits. Each time they raise their placards, they spend more and more time considering their quotations, and their faces are getting more and more serious and ugly!
They did not expect that this set of furniture would soar to this price, which has far exceeded their expectations!
However, they are unwilling to give up now, so they are still insisting, every time they bite their posterior molars and hold their cards!
For Ye Tian, the roots of their teeth were itchy.
It's all because of that bottomless bastard! If he hadn't deliberately provoked the war, the price of this furniture would never have been pushed to such a high level.
It's okay now, he has doubled so fast!
Ye Tian, the initiator of this situation, is already very satisfied with the price and does not plan to make another move, just waiting to get the dollar!
After three more rounds of bidding, the auction entered the final stage.
"420,000 U.S. dollars, 420,000 U.S. dollars, does anyone respond? Mr. Irwin, do you respond?"
Brady yelled quickly, staring at the number 25 bidder in the front row, pointing very clearly.
There are only two bidders left, and there is no need to pay attention to others! Unless Cheng Yaojin is killed in the diagonal stabbing!
Irvine shook his head disappointedly, and said that he would give up the bid and announced his withdrawal from the competition.
Immediately afterwards, Brad's voice immediately sounded again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now is the last chance, the first and second time of 420,000 US dollars, Sold! 410,000 US dollars sold! Congratulations to Mr. 149 for this antique furniture!"
With the announcement of the auction results, Brad's auction mallet fell heavily.
"boom!"
The final word, the auction is over.
"Awesome! Perfect result!"
Ye Tian waved his fist in excitement, his face burst into the brightest smile.
Betty sitting next to her was the same, very excited.
After a little celebration, Ye Tian quickly adjusted his mood, smiled and turned his head to look at the bidder No. 149 not far behind him, and nodded at the other party!
Bidder No. 149 is not happy at this time, there is no joy of success on his face, and a wry smile on his face, it is better than crying to see it!
Seeing Ye Tianchong's gesture to himself, the bidder gave an angry glance, almost pointing his middle finger!
Ye Tian didn't care about this kind of unfriendly response, and turned his head back.
"Yes! I have opened my eyes today! Your kid is too hot and too high-profile! No wonder there are enemies everywhere! I have never seen a guy like you!"
Ma Ye said with emotion, an expression of admiration.
"Ye Tian, aren't you afraid that the other party will break the contract and not pay? This kind of thing is not uncommon. Don't get the bamboo basket to drain until the end, it's not worthwhile!"
The other domestic collector whispered, obviously a little worried.
Ye Tian shook his head lightly and said with a smile:
"No! The United States is a mature credit society. Personal credit is very important. It will affect all aspects of life. Anyone who is a little sensible will not easily leave credit stains.
This is especially true in the auction field. If he wants to continue to participate in such high-level auctions, he must not leave a credit stain on the auction house, otherwise he will lose more than that deposit! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Ye explained:
"Ye Tian is right. Top auctions such as Sotheby's New York Autumn Auctions all attach great importance to credit records. Those who have left credit taints at the auction house will find it difficult to qualify for bidding again.
In the past few years, there have indeed been a lot of things that took antiques at high prices but did not pay, and then left. Except for some guys who used auctions to speculate secretly, the rest are basically laymen!
Any antique dealers and collectors who often participate in such top auctions will not easily make such low-level mistakes. This is a minefield and cannot be easily touched! And it's not worth it! "
Later, Ye Tian explained a few more words, not at all worried.
"Ten thousand steps back, even if this person really breaks the contract, I have nothing to worry about. This antique furniture may be sold at a higher price in the future, so that I can make more!
Sherman's march notes contain a lot of violent materials. I will announce them gradually. It will definitely cause a sensation. The value of this antique furniture will naturally rise! "
"Your kid is so cunning! Together, you have been using that marching notebook to whet Lao Mei's appetite, high! It's high!"
Mr. Li said with a low smile and gave Ye Tian another thumbs up.
The auction continues! The atmosphere on site is getting hotter and hotter, bidding number plates one after another, very lively!
Two or three pieces of European and American antique furniture have been auctioned one after another, and the prices are all pretty good!
Immediately afterwards, Chinese antique furniture began to appear on the stage, and once it appeared, it was a boutique!
The first appearance is a Ming Dynasty red sandalwood fan-shaped southern official hat chair. It was made in the early Ming Dynasty. It is an extremely rare Ming-style furniture. It can be called the supreme quality of red sandalwood furniture and is of great value!
When this chair appeared on the big screen, Ma Ye immediately leaned forward, his eyes brightened up, and stared at the big screen without blinking! His eyes are extremely hot.
Even his breathing suddenly became heavier, his complexion flushed, as if he had drunk it! Very excited! The folds on his face opened up instantly, as if he was a lot younger!
At this moment, Ma Ye has an extremely focused expression and an extremely affectionate gaze, just like the first lover!
Seeing his performance, Ye Tian suddenly understood.
Got it! This master came for this chair!
"Master Ma, did you see this red sandalwood official hat chair?"
Ye Tian smiled and asked in a low voice, interrupting the one who was focused on admiring.
He did it deliberately, lest the grandfather would pass in excitement, it would be worthless!
"Of course, I came to New York for this chair. This is the pinnacle of Ming-style furniture and represents the highest level of Chinese antique furniture.
Mr. Wang Shixiang wrote a similar official hat chair in "Research on Ming-style Furniture", and the evaluation was extremely high. It was only in the late Ming Dynasty, and it was not as good as this chair!
I have always wanted to start with such a chair, but there is always no chance. Since I met this time, I can't miss it, otherwise it will be difficult to meet it again.
The only pity is that there is only one chair in this auction, not a pair. Even so, I am very satisfied. I am sure to get this chair! "
Ma Ye quickly whispered, his tone extremely excited.
At the same time, he kept staring at the picture of the official hat chair on the big screen, and he never left his sight for a moment, which shows how deeply he loves this official hat chair.
The same goes for the other three people next to them, all with drunken expressions, staring at the official hat chair on the big screen, their eyes are extremely hot!
Although they also love this chair very much, they probably won't compete with Ma Ye. After all, everyone is here together, so you still have to take care of your face!
As for Ye Tian, looking at this red sandalwood chair was very enthusiastic, but he didn't have the thought of putting it in his bag.
New York is not a good place to collect Chinese furniture. It's a bit nonsense to put such a chair in your apartment, so forget it!
The best collection environment for this kind of antique is still in China, where more people know how to appreciate it and understand the aesthetic taste derived from blood.
Of course, if Ma Ye withdraws from the competition halfway, Ye Tian doesn’t mind making an all-out effort to take down this art treasure left by his ancestors~EbookFREE.me~ In comparison, the dollar is the least important thing. Everything came back after two leaks!
Thinking of this, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said:
"Master Ma, I wish you all the best, and successfully take down this red sandalwood official hat chair. If you need help, just talk, don't say anything else, I am still competent as an interpreter!
If you need legal services, there is no problem. My lawyer is on Wall Street, very close to here, and can be there in about ten minutes.
And I'm fairly familiar with Sotheby's, and I have a bit of face, and I can talk about it. As long as it is not too important, I believe I can solve it! "
"Hahaha, I have heard about the partnership between your kid and Sotheby's auction house. It does have this face. We old guys are ashamed of it!
Respect is worse than fate! Now you can do a translation for me. The foreign devil on the stage has a mouth like a machine gun. Xiao Li's English is a second knife. I'm really afraid of getting out of the basket! "
Ma Ye said with a smile, and did not reject Ye Tian's kindness.
"Hahaha"
Everyone laughed, very relaxed.
That Mr. Li just smiled, and didn't care about Ma Ye's joke.
He may be able to deal with English at a normal speed, but it is really difficult for him to deal with English like a machine gun like an auctioneer and mixed with a lot of technical terms!
While talking, Brad returned to the auction stage after taking a break, releasing a loud voice again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the auction continues. The next auction will be Chinese antique furniture. The first appearance is a chair from the Ming Dynasty in China 500 years ago, the red sandalwood fan-shaped southern official hat chair,...") Download for free Device!!
