Chapter 360

Donghai fuduhui auction.

many guests of exalted rank were present.

As one of the top auctions in China, almost all the people invited to participate in the fuduhui auction are celebrities, well-known collectors and top tycoons in various industries.

At this time, the professional auctioneer in suits and shoes is enthusiastically introducing an auction item.

"This picture of Taoyuan is the masterpiece of Zhang Daqian's ink splashing and color splashing paintings. It is the last masterpiece of his life. The picture of Lushan, now hidden in the Forbidden City in Taipei, is the masterpiece of Zhang Daqian's creative career at the same time. It is a rare treasure in the world. Now the auction begins, and the starting price is 80 million!"

The auctioneer's voice was melodious and magnificent.

At the same time, various media reporters holding cameras pressed the shutter madly at the priceless paintings on the booth.

This is an auction site similar to a medium-sized song and dance hall. It is surrounded by the booth in a semicircle, and the ladder seats that can accommodate 300 or 400 people are full at this time.

"Dong Chen, do you know Zhang Daqian?"

"Zhang Daqian is a splash painter, calligrapher, one of the founders of the great wind hall school, one of the most legendary splash painters in Chinese painting in the 20th century, and has been praised as" the pen of the East "in the western art world."

"He has made great achievements in landscape painting, combining painting style with work and writing, and integrating heavy color and ink. Among them, ink splashing and color splashing have created a new artistic style. Because his poems, books and paintings are as famous as Qi Baishi and Pu Xinshe, they are also known as" Southern Zhang and Northern Qi "and" Southern Zhang and Northern Pu "

In the middle of the auction site, Yu Ji unexpectedly turned her head and looked at the man around her. She was obviously surprised at the other party's erudition.

Chen Liang seemed to have guessed her idea and explained with a smile: "when I was in college, I took the course of art appreciation. The teacher specially met Zhang Daqian."

In fact, the reason why he took this course was not that he was really interested in art, but because there were many beautiful women in this course.

Suddenly, Yu Ji asked with a smile, "Zhang Daqian's paintings are indeed of high artistic value and great collection value. Especially this picture of Taoyuan is his masterpiece. If you miss this time, you may never have a chance again. Do you know if Dong Chen is interested in selling?"

Chen Liang looked around.

"There should be many people interested in this painting, so I won't join the fun."

you bet.

As soon as the auctioneer's voice landed, someone couldn't wait to start raising cards.

"90 million!"

"Mr. 98, bid $90 million!"

"95 million!"

"Ms. 63, bid $95 million!"

"98 million!"

"One hundred million!"

The bidding price soared like a rocket, and soon broke through the 100 million mark, and the speed did not slow down.

The money here seems to be the same as paper.

"This painting was actually sold at Sotheby's auction in Hong Kong City as early as 1987. At that time, it sold for 1.87 million, and now the bidding price has exceeded 100 million..."

Yu Ji didn't seem to be interested in the painting. She whispered, "Dong Chen, how much do you think the painting will be sold in the end?"

Chen Liang smacked his tongue.

In 1987, it sold 1.87 million. Although the auction is not over, it has broken the 100 million mark.

No wonder so many big guys love deep hiding. In fact, this is also an investment. If you are lucky, you can make a lot of profits with small wealth.

"I think 150 million should be about the same."

Chen Liang guessed that he didn't know anything about this business.

Yu Ji smiled and said nothing.

"230 million, deal! Congratulations, Mr. 235!"

Finally, with the auctioneer's drop hammer, this picture of Taoyuan was successfully auctioned at the price of 2.3!

At the same time, this price also created the auction record of Zhang Daqian's personal works!

230 million, what is the concept?

Maybe many people don't have intuitive feelings.

For example, if you change it into cash, the weight of a hundred million is 1.15 tons, which can be stacked into a cube 1.5 meters long, 0.8 meters wide and 1 meter high.

And 2.3 times the money, you can buy a picture of Zhang Daqian's Taoyuan!

How many poor people can't afford to see a doctor.

How many children in the mountains can't afford to go to school.

But here, money really seems to be just a string of meaningless numbers.

Zhumen stinks of wine and meat, and the road is frozen to death.

Any era is no exception.

230 million, 80 million more than I expected.

Chen Liang was a little surprised by this result, but he also learned more about how deep the water in art investment is and how much profit space there is.

The picture of Taoyuan was 230 million, and the scene was also a sensation. The media pressed the shutter like chicken blood.

And the auction continues.

"The next auction is antique porcelain, which is the exquisite sandwich bottle of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty. This kind of sandwich exquisite bottle set is very rare. Its production is complex and difficult to burn. It brings together the essence of the craft style of the past dynasties and the great achievement of the millennium. It can be called uncanny workmanship!"

Worthy of being the auctioneer of the top auction, his explanation is fascinating.

"This bottle is an orphan bottle, which matches the incomparable status of the Qianqing palace. The starting price is 30 million!"

Although this masterpiece of exquisite porcelain art came from a large background and was born in the imperial court, its artistic value naturally could not compare with Zhang Daqian's Taoyuan map before, and finally sold at a price of 70 million.

Up to now, Chen Liang has not raised his card once. Looking at other people's bidding, he thinks he has made a small achievement. He suddenly feels like a frog at the bottom of a well.

There are tens of millions or billions of auctions here, but there are an endless stream of people raising cards.

It's true to stand high and see far.

When he used to work with the wind, he knew only a handful of rich people like Ma Yun, Ma Teng, Wang Jianqiao and Wang Wei, but now he found that, let alone abroad, even the number of rich people in China exceeded his imagination.

But most of them are relatively low-key and not known by the public.

At least none of those present should be worth less than 10 billion.

"Chen Dong, you should be interested in these two pieces?"

With Yu Ji's voice, another auction appeared on the stage, or more accurately, it should be two.

It's a pair of heart-shaped rings, but one is a blue diamond and the other is a pink diamond.

The number of colored diamonds is scarce, so they are expensive, especially those with bright colors and high saturation.

The two diamond rings on the stage, one blue and one powder, are crystal clear and magnificent in color. Under the light, they reflect a dazzling light.

The women at the auction seemed to be attracted by a magnet. Subconsciously, they held their breath and stared at the two diamond rings. Their souls seemed to be hooked away.

Even many men are intoxicated.

The lethality of jewelry, especially precious jewelry, is gender neutral.

Obviously, the next auction will be another bloodbath.
