My identity as a collector was exposed by the village flower

Chapter 287 Breaking Van Gogh's Personal Record

However, the big dogs in the oil country are more arrogant than the one surnamed Shi. They bid without blinking their brows. I'm afraid they don't feel at ease about [-] to [-] million dollars!

"10 billion"

As this number appeared on the big screen, the scene immediately came to a standstill.

Even Xu Qing's live broadcast room became quiet at the moment.Obviously, he was also shocked by the tone of the big dog in the oil country.

This posture is absolutely inevitable.

The guy surnamed Shi's complexion changed, and finally he chose to give up. The price of 10 billion yuan is really a bit high.His personal assets are only more than 200 billion.

At first, he thought that with three to five billion yuan, he could securely take down Van Gogh's paintings.

Only then did he guarantee to American colleges and universities that they would offer Van Gogh's works.

Now it seems that he can only find another way.

More than 10 billion, he also has a little pain!That much money didn't come from the wind.

After another 2 minutes, Van Gogh's paintings were fixed at 12 billion RMB, equivalent to almost 1.8 million U.S. dollars.

"Unexpectedly, the most expensive painting by Van Gogh was born in China." Liu Shijun was also very surprised.

Prior to this, Van Gogh's most expensive painting was "Portrait of Dr. Gachet". In 1990, Saito Ryoei, then the honorary chairman of Japan's second largest paper maker, Daishowa Paper, paid 8250 million US dollars in Sofu, New York. Bid to win this work.

No one would have thought that the painting in front of them would directly double Van Gogh's personal art auction record, raising it to 1.8 million. If commissions were added, the transaction price would be close to 2 million US dollars.

Although the last record was set more than 20 or 1 years ago, the $2 million at that time may be worth more than the current $[-] million, but the sudden surge is beyond many people's expectations.

"So far, Van Gogh has more than 15 works worth more than [-] million yuan, which is terrible." Someone said.

"There must be more! It can only be said that there are more than 15 paintings that have appeared in the auction market with a transaction price of more than [-] million yuan. There are some even better ones, all of which are kept in museums!"

"That's right! In fact, the really valuable ones are still in museums. For example, Da Vinci's "Mona Lisa", if it is put up for auction, it will definitely be a terrifying astronomical figure."

……

It can be seen that, as an artist, Van Gogh has created an economic value of more than [-] billion, and he is worthy of being a master-level painter.

"Pay attention, the one surnamed Shi will definitely follow you." Jiang Wanyu said to Fang Xing.

Fang Xing spread his hands together: "It doesn't matter! I don't necessarily see him."

So what about the rich?Who doesn't have a lot of money in their pockets?

If he was really capable, he should have photographed that work just now, but he loves money.

Next, all kinds of Western artworks appeared on the stage, and the response was very general.Chinese people are not very good at appreciating Western art, and some rich people take it away, not for appreciation, but arty.

A real collector will generally not be blind to works of art that he is not familiar with or interested in.

As a result, there were three unsold items in the middle of the auction, namely an oil painting, a glass artwork, and a civilized stick.

Civilization sticks are also a kind of collectibles. Their value mainly depends on the materials they are made of. There are wooden ones and metal ones;

Its main feature is that on the head of the stick, there are ivory, copper, stone, jade, stainless steel, or bright, or rough, some are fine in texture, some are elegant and luxurious, some are realistic, some are abstract, and there are many calligraphy, Paintings and other fine carvings.The civilized stick is not only used as a tool to reduce the burden when walking, but also a symbol of a gentleman.

A western gentleman's cane is generally a straight stick.Metal or gemstones are placed in the grip.After evolving into China's civilized sticks, most of them have a curved shape at the position of the hand.

If Fang Xing hadn't provided two masterpieces by famous artists, this auction of western artworks would have seemed quite embarrassing.

The two paintings provided by Fang Xing covered up all the flaws.Even if the other lots fail, this auction will still be the envy of the industry.

"Just look at the finale."

"Da Vinci's paintings are definitely better than those of Van Gogh. The main reason is that there are not many Da Vinci's paintings handed down, and each one is a masterpiece."

"It should be said that Da Vinci's paintings are too rare to appear in the auction market. They are generally collected in famous museums and art galleries around the world."

"Prior to this, the only work by Leonardo da Vinci that was auctioned was "Salvator Mundi", worth 4.5 million US dollars, or almost 30 billion yuan. This record may be difficult to break."

"I don't know if this auction can break the record of "Salvator Mundi."

"It's almost impossible. First of all, the popularity of "Savior Mundi" is more famous than the works in this auction, and second, Christie's spent a lot of money on publicity for that auction.

It is said that before the auction, they toured key locations around the world, including Hong Kong Island, San Francisco, London..."

"Even if we can't break the record of "Salvator Mundi", with Da Vinci's appeal, it shouldn't be too difficult to break the transaction price of the painting by Van Gogh just now?"

……

Everyone is looking forward to the finale.

In other words, [-]% of those wealthy people in the West came here for Leonardo da Vinci's paintings.Especially the painting in front of me is known as the children's version of "Mona Lisa".

"It's a pity! Time is too tight, we should learn from Christie's and hold a tour." Jiang Wanyu felt a little regretful.

Fang Xing smiled: "It's not necessary, as long as you spread the news, those who are interested and able to bid will naturally come. Those touring exhibitions are nothing more than improving the reputation of the works in the hearts of the general public, and have no impact on the auction. Big."

To be honest, this kind of artwork is different from movies.

When a movie is released, actors and directors may go to various cities to promote it, which has a great impact on the box office.Because ordinary people can afford a movie ticket.

And this kind of art is not accessible to ordinary people at all, let alone have the ability to consume it.

"Ahem! Tickets can still be charged for the tour. You won't lose the promotion fee." Jiang Wanyu said to Fang Xing.

"Charge? Is that so?" Fang Xing was stunned for a moment.

He really didn't know that there was such a thing. How many people could go to see the tour fee?
"That's right! During the "Salvator Mundi" tour, tickets were even fired up to $400 a piece!"

Two 3000 RMB per ticket, just to see a painting?What can ordinary people understand?Anyway, Fang Xing thought it was outrageous.

Just as Fang Xing and the others were chatting, the most exciting finale auction began.
