Chapter 410 Cai Shixiang

As the middle-aged man who acted as the master of ceremonies came to the front of the stage, the entire auction house gradually calmed down.

But except for a few people like Xia Long, few people heard clearly what the master of ceremonies said, and the eyes of those other people stayed on Yan Ruyu and never left.

Yan Ruyu was disgusted for a while, but she couldn't show any impatient expression on her face. After all, she was helping her teacher this time, so she couldn't lose Dean Gong's face.

Cultural people, what they pay attention to is a face.

The middle-aged master of ceremonies explained the rules, the most important of which is that today's auction is not only a commercial auction, but also a charity auction, which means that many of the sellers will use the proceeds from the auction to Donate part of it to form a cultural charity fund, and then set up a special charity foundation, and everyone will elect a highly respected person to serve as the chairman of the foundation.

Of course, the amount of donation is also a mandatory condition for the chairman candidate.

This time, the Cultural Exchange Festival not only received sponsorship from many big companies, but also the Yanjing City Government fully supported it, so the momentum of this auction is really a bit big.

The items in this auction, even compared to the annual auction conferences held by those professional large auction companies, are much more shocking.

There are quite a few mysterious items in the auction, and it is said that the valuation on the market exceeds tens of millions.

Before Xia Long and Situ Yan came in, of course they did not know the details of the key items in this auction, because they had no interest at all, but the others were different. They are all rich and powerful entrepreneurs who look at the face of the government. Although many of them have the smell of money in their heads, it does not prevent them from throwing money into it!
Sitting next to Xia Long was a group of rich people who looked like they were specialized in business. They had a strong aura of wealth but were unassuming. Compared with those rich people with big bellies and big brains, they were very low-key.

One of them was whispering to the other in a low voice: "Mr. Chen, I heard that you are determined to win the set of Chenghua blue and white this time! It's really a big deal!"

"How can it compare to you, Mr. Wang!"

Mr. Chen said in a low voice: "I also heard that Mr. Wang is very confident about that calligraphy this time, but I am very curious as to which famous contemporary master's calligraphy and painting can surpass Master Cai's. A drawing of galloping horses? This is too strange, the contemporary masters are undoubtedly the number one master, Cai Shixiang, could it be possible that another master will come out?"

Mr. Chen's face turned red slowly, releasing a layer of luster: "Hey, brother, you are a master when it comes to porcelain, but when it comes to calligraphy and painting, brother, I do my part. I might as well tell you that this work is published, hehe , Master Cai, Master Cai is afraid to be tsk-tsk, the value of this writing, in ten years' time, may not necessarily increase by ten times!"

Mr. Wang asked very curiously: "Who the hell? So powerful?"

Mr. Chen seemed to have got some top-secret information, and he didn't say it out. He felt very uncomfortable all by himself. He leaned into Mr. Wang's ear and whispered slowly: "You must still remember the short-lived news 20 years ago. Master Fa Hai?"

"Him? Is it his handwriting? My God!"

Mr. Chen quickly covered Mr. Wang's mouth, and said in a low voice: "My brother, please keep your voice down. No one can say for sure about this, but the owner of this painting seems to be the only master of Fahai. The disciple's work, and it is the first work to be published, there is no withdrawal or anything on it, and there is a secret, whoever gets this painting, the original owner of this calligraphy, will ask Master Fahai to sign the inscription Yes! Tell me, what kind of market is this?"

Mr. Wang let out a long breath, and said softly: "If that's the case, it would be amazing. I can't help but want to compete with you!"

Others couldn't hear them talking, but Xia Long was dumbfounded.

He couldn't help but glanced at Situ Yan's aunt, Gao Wenxiu, and smiled wryly in his heart.

This is obviously what he was talking about!

How can I have any works?The only calligraphy and painting is the tiger character written in Mr. Situ's study!

Moreover, this word has always been treasured by Mr. Situ, and no one else could see it, but now it has been brought up in this auction. Obviously, besides Gao Wenxiu, who else can do it?
Although I know that my master's reputation is far more than the seven kills in Sha Po Lang back then, but now it seems that it is more awesome than I imagined!
Forget it, don't think about it, let's go to the show!

When the master of ceremonies on the stage said the last word, his face couldn't hide his excitement: "Now, I invite our most famous contemporary calligraphy and painting master, the No.1 Chinese painting and calligraphy master, Cai Shixiang, to come on stage and say a few words! Master Cai is this time One of the most popular candidates for the chairman of our charitable foundation, Master Cai is highly respected, and it is very fortunate for charity to be the chairman of the charity association! Please, Master Cai!"

Everyone applauded, Huang Leyu and his gang were the most energetic, and the applause was really thunderous for a while.

This is an old man in a gray Tang suit, about 70 years old, who slowly appeared at the entrance of the auction stage. Huang Leyu immediately ran forward, and then lovingly supported Cai Shixiang, and walked slowly to the front desk.

The applause became more enthusiastic.

After all, Cai Shixiang's name was not something that was blown out, and at least half of the people who come here today, whether they are cultural people or rich people, come here because of Cai Shixiang's name.

After all, Cai Shixiang's works have been the most sought-after in the painting and calligraphy market in the past 20 years.

Cai Shixiang's whole person looks like a fairy, with a childlike face and white hair, very energetic. Although the smiles are all over his face, Xia Long couldn't help laughing when he looked carefully.

Sure enough!
Others may not be able to see anything, Xia Long is not a magician, of course he can't read faces, but he can see the meanness and power deep in Cai Shixiang's eyes.

Eyes are the window to the soul, Cai Shixiang is just an ordinary person, he can hide it from other people, but he cannot hide it from Xia Long.

This is really a profit-seeking master, and he also likes to pretend to be noble.

Sharon couldn't help but have a burst of doubts.

How did such a person become a master?
To know a person's work, it reflects that person's state of mind!

Contemporary No.1, is such a person?

It's weird!

At this time, Cai Shixiang was supported by Huang Leyu and came to the front desk of the auction house. He greeted the master of ceremonies first, then turned his head to look at everyone, cleared his throat and said, "Here, thank you for your support for charity. There are a few of my humble works auctioned, and I will donate all the proceeds from the auction to the newly established charity fund! Of course, charity is everyone’s support, and I hope that the rich and powerful present will do their best for charity, thank you.”

Cai Shixiang said a few words, then turned around and walked away with Huang Leyu's support. Before entering the backstage, Huang Leyu whispered something in Cai Shixiang's ear. Cai Shixiang pretended not to care, and turned his head to look at Xia Long. With a glance, he walked backstage.

At this time, the master of ceremonies said loudly: "Now I announce that the auction will officially begin!"

After the master of ceremonies finished speaking, a middle-aged man in his 50s came out from the backstage, wearing a suit and leather shoes, with a flat and slightly serious face.

Without too many words, two hostesses came up with the first lot in their hands. The master of ceremonies naturally stepped back, but Yan Ruyu became the one to display the lot.

The auctioneer turned his head and glanced at the first lot, and a magnetic voice sounded: "A pair of jade discs with taotie patterns from the Warring States Period. The starting price is 30!"

Everyone who participated in the auction naturally had the information of the item in their hands. Of course, many people had been paying attention to the things they were interested in for a long time, so someone raised their hand and shouted: "50!"

"60 million!"

"90 million!"

"120 million!!"

Several people called several times in turn, and the price was fixed at 120 million.

Everyone is well aware that the auction items at the beginning are just for attracting jade. The pair of gluttonous pattern jade biscuits can be auctioned for 120 million, which is already at the limit.

Unless someone particularly likes it, just keep it as the real one and not sell it.

But how many cultural relics and antiques have been kept because of pure love?
You bought it for 100 million, and they give you 1000 million. Don’t you buy it?
A fool would not sell!
The second lot is a pair of calligraphy and painting by a painter of the Ming Dynasty. The starting price is 100 million, and the transaction price is 230 million. Then there are pieces of antiques, such as porcelain, calligraphy and painting, and even ancient furniture, coins, and jade.

The grand occasion of this auction is really unprecedented. These lots are obviously well-equipped, and following the opportunity of this cultural exchange meeting, each of these lots has a history, so almost none of them are fake. Participating in the auction company's Spring Auctions, Autumn Auctions, etc., the chances of encountering counterfeit goods are simply reduced. Therefore, of course, it has attracted countless rich people flocking to them.

Don't say anything else, just say that the auctioneer can see it today.

He has the confidence, they are all good things, not afraid that you don't want the price, he even cherishes words like gold, except for guaranteeing the bottom price, he just swings the hammer, except for the deal, he doesn't say a word, and the tone is not even There is a touch of emotion in it.

The prices of various auction items have been rising all the way, and by then, the highest price has broken through to the level of tens of millions.

At this time, the auctioneer's face finally changed a little, because the next lot was very precious.

"The next item to be auctioned is a set of blue and white porcelain bowl and dish sets from the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty. This is the first set of special dish sets for the royal family that has been released so far. It is more precious than the Chenghua Chicken Crock Cup. !"

When the auctioneer said this, Yan Ruyu was already holding up the dishes and porcelain that Sharon got from Hamilton one by one, showing them to everyone!
"Ming Dynasty Chenghua Blue and White Royal Chilong Pattern Dish and Dish Set, starting price, 1000 million!"
