Chapter 157 The Auction
Chapter 157 Auction Situation (6)
After the auction rules are announced, the auction will officially start. The auction will be divided into two halves, ten pieces in the first half, and ten pieces in the second half. .
Generally speaking, the atmosphere of the charity auction is friendly and harmonious. It is a process of giving face to each other. There is no such thing as who wants to slap the other face. This is also the case at the beginning of this charity event. The quotation is to give the donor face. In the end, those who can be photographed are also friends or business partners who have a very good relationship with the donor.
The previous auction was uneventful, and the transaction price was not very different from the actual price of the item, at most there was a [-]% premium.
However, during the auction of the Qing Dynasty Buddha statue donated by Du Jun, there was a wave of climax, and the bidders were very enthusiastic, and the first lot of the auction was sold, with a premium of 30 million. This is also a charity auction. The limit was reached, and the one who won this lot was the son of the boss of a company that had a cooperative relationship with Du's Hansheng Group.
Cheng Mo himself doesn't know much about the unspoken rules of charity auctions. Seeing this, there is a little worry. There is a certain tacit understanding in charity auctions, and he rarely fights. It is already difficult to sell more than 25 million things for 100 yuan , which is already three times the premium, but the problem is that this is not necessarily enough.
But at this moment, Cheng Mo can only watch the auction continue, and wait to adapt. If Xie Minyun can't do it, he can only go to the battle himself to stimulate Du Leng.
When the auction continued in an orderly manner, the discussion at Cheng Mo's table did not stop. They commented on each lot, and knew the donors of each lot. It seemed that these people were participants, but in fact they were just high-end food. For the melon crowd, only those who sit in the first row are the high society of Star City and are the participants of the game.
However, Cheng Mo was wrong, these people still had motives to participate in the game.
Everyone moved their chopsticks a few times symbolically, watched the auction, and applauded the winner. The time passed by, and according to the order of the auction, the tenth "Great Criticism of Coca Cola" donated by Bai Xiuxiu was about to arrive. Xie Dingnan was a little nervous because he planned to participate in the auction, but he didn't know much about oil paintings, so he offered a glass of wine to the man with glasses who seemed to know everything and asked, "Mr. How much is the oil painting donated by Dong worth?"
The man with glasses rubbed his chin, pretended to be very knowledgeable, thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about oil painting, the only two masters I am familiar with are Chen Danqing and Chen Yifei, and their paintings are more than a few million. , I don’t know much about Wang Guangyi, he is probably a niche writer, and his collection value may not be high, so I guess I’ll make a 30 bid when it’s over the top!”
In fact, the price of oil paintings depends on the area. Master Wang Guangyi's works are very valuable for collection, but because this "Great Criticism of Coca Cola" is a framed painting, the price is relatively low.
Xie Dingnan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, three to four hundred thousand is still acceptable, if the price is too high, I can only participate in the auction of one piece."
What Xie Dingnan said made Cheng Mo a little embarrassed. Xie Dingnan would definitely not be able to get the first piece of work. If there is a need, the goal will be transferred to the second glass sculpture and red wine. This is not a good thing for Cheng Mo , because his goal is to buy red wine and complete the task of "obtaining an item donated by Bai Xiuxiu" by himself.
The man with glasses said: "I said, Mr. He, there are two other items donated by Director Bai later. You don't need to be so nervous. The price of the later items is lower, isn't it better?"
Xie Dingnan shook his head and said, "The price is too low, it's dishonest!"
The eye-eyed man smiled and said, "It's hard to say that the price is low. If it's not, I can raise the price for you! Anyway, I'm also a little interested in the last bottle of wine, so I can try to take a picture."
At this time, Miss Ma, who pretended to be a B girl, said that she would take pictures of something interesting, "Hey, don't tell me, I still really want the last bottle of red wine. I just have a party with my best friend in a few days." , you can still sell favors to Director Bai, I see Mr. Tang, you should buy the first two things, and give me the last bottle of red wine."
Cheng Mo felt a little nervous. For a Diaosi who could only use 13 yuan, every additional competitor meant a price he couldn't pay, so he planned to jump out to dispel the idea of these people.
"It doesn't matter if you can take pictures of the items in front of you." Xie Dingnan Mr. Tang smiled and wiped his sweat with a paper towel. Although the air conditioner in the hall was fully turned on, obese people in suits would still feel hot.
Ms. Ma frowned and said, "Boss Tang, I think it's naive for you to want to see Boss Bai just because you took a picture of something, why don't you give me the last bottle of wine, maybe I can introduce you to Director Bai long."
Ms. Ma's family controls a large chain beauty and plastic surgery institution in Hunan Province. Bai Xiuxiu sometimes goes to their store for beauty treatment, and several of her stores are rented by Gao Yun Group. In fact, Ms. Ma only knows Bai Xiuxiu , just said a few words, not a girlfriend at all.
Her goal is to photograph that not-so-expensive bottle of red wine, and then she can use it to promote it among some wealthy women. You must know that Director Bai is an idol in the eyes of many wealthy wives.
Seeing that things were starting to develop in a bad direction, Cheng Mo, who had been silent all this time, said lightly, "It just so happens that I also want a piece of Sister Bai's lot, so I don't think you all should grab it from me!"
As soon as Cheng Mo spoke, everyone focused their eyes on this handsome young man who didn't know where he came from.
Ms. Ma looked at the mobile phone that was silently placed on the table and sneered: "Little brother, you are a little out of touch with what you said? Who do you think you are?"
Xie Dingnan also shook his head and said, "The auction house speaks according to its strength."
The man with glasses also turned his head and glanced at Cheng Mo, "You better not join in the fun and cause trouble for your adults."
Cheng Mo ignored the man with glasses, and directly said to Xie Dingnan, "You want to see Sister Bai, but I can't do it, but I will let you see Sister Bai's sister-in-law later, Miss Gao"
Xie Dingnan looked at Cheng Mo's quiet face, hesitated for a moment and said, "Really? Fake?"
Before Cheng Mo could speak, the man with glasses laughed "hehe" and said, "Son, you've blown your horns, Chairman Bai's sister-in-law didn't come at all! I've seen the list of participants." Although the man with glasses What he said was not sarcasm, but the statement was full of superiority after knowing the truth. In fact, he had only read the earliest version of the list of participants, and Xie Minyun and Gao Yuemei only joined later.
When the glasses man said this, everyone looked at Cheng Mo with suspicion. Hearing the glasses man's words, Ms. Ma was also a little unhappy and said: "Nowadays, some young people! I haven't made any money, so I want to learn more." Crooked ways. If you have no money, don’t pretend to be B! What else do you say that you don’t want to rob you!” It is obvious that Ms. Ma is thinking wrong.
Cheng Mo didn't explain, but said lightly: "Then it depends on who is pretending."
At this time, the female auctioneer presiding over the auction had asked someone to put the glass box containing "The Great Criticism of Coca Cola" on the center of the stage, and said with a microphone: "This is our last lot in the first half. It is one of the three items donated by Chairman Bai Xiuxiu of our Gaoyun Group, a pair of "Great Criticism coca cola" in the "Great Criticism" series of the famous oil painting master Wang Guangyi, the most important of Wang Guangyi's "Great Criticism" series The price of an expensive pair was auctioned at more than 500 million yuan, but the size of this pair is relatively small, so the starting price is only 20 yuan.”
The auctioneer said loudly: "Only 20! Anyone want to take this oil painting home?"
Miss Ma sneered at Cheng Mo and said, "Don't you want to see who is pretending? Why don't you buy this painting? No one will grab it from you"
Seeing that Xie Dingnan was about to raise his placard, Cheng Mo said, "It's meaningless for you to raise your placard. This painting should be sold for 100 million yuan. You can't afford it."
The man with glasses seemed to have heard a very funny joke, and said: "Little handsome guy, if you don't understand, you should stop talking. You're bluffing if you don't talk. If you talk, you will die of laughter. If this picture can be photographed for 100 million , my surname Tang drank all the soup at this banquet."
The others also laughed secretly, looking at Cheng Mo as if they were mentally retarded.
Xie Dingnan naturally believed in the more reliable man with glasses, but he didn't intend to offend Cheng Mo, he just smiled and said: "Try it hard, if you can't take a picture, take one."
----------
At this time, in the presidential suite of the Wanda Mandarin Hotel, Bai Xiuxiu was watching the live broadcast of the charity dinner with red wine. She smiled and asked Feng Luwan, "How much do you think my painting can be auctioned for?"
"It should be between 40 and [-]," Feng Luwan said while staring at the TV.
Bai Xiuxiu smiled, "Cut the camera to Lin Zhinuo, and I'll see what he will do!"
Feng Luwan picked up the remote control and switched to another camera's perspective, "It's too difficult for him to raise the price to the highest, basically there is no possibility. Unless he asks Miss Gao to pay for the painting Buy it at the highest price, but it is too opportunistic to complete the task, and it is meaningless.”
"I don't think he will do this. In fact, I still have a little expectation for him. I hope he won't let me down." Bai Xiuxiu spun the red wine in the glass and said softly.
"Chairman, I feel that you are very aware of this person's background. Could it be that you know him?" Feng Wanlu asked with some doubts.
Bai Xiuxiu shook her head and said, "I'm not sure, but I'm sure, the better he behaves, the greater the threat to me, and the worse he behaves, the less valuable he is to me , which is really contradictory."
