The lights suddenly moved away from the host's body and focused on a stage on the other side of the stage.

On the counter, there was a bowl about the size of his palm.

"This first collection came from the porcelain industry. It's an official kiln with blue and white porcelain bowls during the Ming Dynasty …"

This opening ceremony was something from the Ming Dynasty, and the atmosphere of the entire auction was stirred up all of a sudden.

No matter what, the blue and white flower bowls of the Ming Dynasty were still from the official kiln. They were definitely the best-selling items on the market right now. The starting price of a hundred thousand yuan bowl directly increased by one million yuan after several bids.

For the Qiushi Auction House, the price of one million gold coins was about the same.

In the end, the blue and white bowl was bought by a collector for $1.2 million.

"Buying a bowl with over a million gold coins, are these people crazy?" Chen whispered.

This kind of blue and white bowl's value is still pretty good, and the later stage of the market should be pretty good too. After buying it for 1.2 million, it's very likely that it will sell for 2.1 million in a few years, or at the very least, at its original price. In the auction, most of the people here are speculators, and of course, there are also real ones. Guo Yunpeng explained.

"There are too few people who just can't enter." Xu Taiping said, "In the capital, I know a few people who can't enter, but they really do have a large family background. Only those with a hundred or two hundred years of accumulated wealth can not enter."

"You have to have some family background, and your collection is very expensive. It's just a tri-colored bottle, worth several tens of millions. If you accept it, he can't be used now. Put it there. Think about it, how much interest would you lose?" Guo Yunpeng said.

"So, these people who call for a high price usually keep it for appreciation before selling it back, right?" Chan asked.

It's more or less like this, collect a batch of items, look at which items have risen in value, take them out and sell them, then add in a batch of items. The collection has a lot of value, on one hand, it's about the collection of items, on the other hand, it's about the market price. Xu Taiping said.

"I didn't expect Boss Xu to have such deep insights into the collection as well!" Guo Yunpeng flattered Xu Taiping without leaving a trace.

Xu Taiping smiled and accepted.

As a security guard, he was lucky enough to run into Xu Taiping, so he ended up becoming the vice chairman of the defense department. This was already the pinnacle of life, but it could be said that someone like him was not qualified to participate in today's auction. If not for Xu Taiping, he would never be able to see this so-called collection.

This was the usual method used at auctions. The first item would usually not be the cheapest one, instead, it might be the one with a decent price. This way, it would be able to create a good atmosphere and help to get a good price later on.

The effect of auctioning was still very great. After some people died, it was not impossible for something worth several million to be sold for a few million. Therefore, the atmosphere was very important, as it could impress people with their subjective judgment.

"Tonight's main event is a Tang San Cai vase!" Guo Yunpeng said to Xu Taiping, "It's said that this tri-colored vase was commissioned by a private collector. It's about the same in the museum in our capital. Those are priceless treasures."

"Three Colors of Tang? "Not interested." Xu Taiping shook his head. He had some knowledge about the collection, but he was not interested in it at all.

"The next item up for auction is a roll of film!" The host's thick voice rang again, "This film is from the late Mr. Zhang, the master of film, and this is the first time Mr. Zhang Zi used a film machine to shoot this film when he was young. We still do not know what the contents of the film are, because this film has already been personally sealed by Mr. Zhang, but we can be sure that this film was taken by Mr. Zhang, by Mr. Zhang's family, and they have entrusted us with the auction. All the money we have received will be donated to our Young Film Foundation, which will be used to cultivate outstanding directors and actors in our country. The auction shall now begin. "

"One million." The moment the host finished his sentence, a person sitting in the first few rows immediately raised his hand and shouted.

The item that was auctioned from zero yuan raised the price by one million. This was a rare occurrence in the history of auctions in China.

"Two million."

Another person sitting in the front row made a bid.

The second shout for two million, this was probably the only number that existed in the history of the Chinese auction.

"Three million." Guo Yunpeng, who was standing beside Xu Taiping, raised his hand and shouted a bid.

The auction started talking about an increase of 10 thousand, but now it turned out to be a good thing. In three bids, it went to 3 million, and in one bid, it went to 1 million. The entire auction suddenly became very lively.

"You want to buy this? You don't know anything about it. " Xu Taiping asked in a low voice.

"It doesn't matter what's inside. The main thing is that this is something left behind by Director Zhang, and it's even a film. You have to know, Director Zhang's era is already in the digital age. Where is there such a thing as a film?" Therefore, the contents of this film aren't important at all. The most important thing is that this film is the only film left behind by Director Zhang. It's very expensive, very unique here. " Guo Yunpeng said.

"So that's how it is." Xu Taiping nodded.

Guo Yunpeng's bid of three million made those who were planning on calling out a price hesitate.

3 million for a film, that's still a little expensive.

"4 million!" Martin, who was sitting in the front row, raised his hand and called out a price.

"4 million! Our mister is bidding 4 million!" The host excitedly pointed at Martin and said.

Many people looked at Martin. Martin was quite famous, so many people recognized him.

As an international director, he spent 4 million to buy film works from his peers. This meant that he was very impressed by his peers.

Of course, Zhang Hu didn't need their acknowledgment. Back then, when he was still alive, Martin was just a student of the Film Academy and wasn't even qualified to carry his shoes.

"Four million five hundred thousand." A man in the second row called out his price.

"Five million." Martin immediately raised the price.

"Six million." Guo Yunpeng raised his hand and said.

"7 million." Martin added another million.

"This Martin definitely did it on purpose!" Guo Yunpeng said with a dark expression, "I told him that I especially liked Director Zhang. My goal this time was this film, he's purposely raising the price, is that it!"

"Did you tell him your bottom line?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Yes!" Guo Yunpeng nodded.

"How much?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Seven million five hundred thousand." Guo Yunpeng said, "This is my bottom line!"

"Haha, you're really stupid. You gave your bottom line to others." Xu Taiping laughed.

"How would I have known that we would flame him!" Guo Yunpeng said helplessly, then raised his hand and said, "7.5 million."

"Seven million five hundred thousand." Martin shouted again without waiting for the host to speak.

"Bastard, it was intentional!" Guo Yunpeng gritted his teeth as he spoke.

"Mr. Guo, he only added 10,000, perhaps he doesn't have much confidence. If you add another 10,000 or so, we might be able to capture him!" Chen whispered.

He's doing this on purpose for me to see, he knows where my bottom line is, if he shouts too high at once, I might not want it, so he's adding 10,000 yuan, purposely showing that he doesn't have enough confidence. As long as I add more, he'll increase it with me, and in the end, he'll increase it to a price that I can't bear. Guo Yunpeng said.

"There's such a thing!" Chen suddenly understood.

"Auction is not just about bidding. If you are a tycoon, then alright, just say whatever you want, but if you are not, then you have to use some tricks and use the least price to get what you want. Only then can you feel it!" Xu Taiping said.

"I understand!" Chen nodded.

"Seven million five hundred thousand, is there anyone willing to raise the price?" The host asked loudly.

Guo Yunpeng's face alternated between green and white. He sat there hesitating for a long time before finally raising his hand.

"8 million!" Guo Yunpeng said.

"You've crossed your bottom line." Xu Taiping said.

"I don't care. At most, I will just go back and sell a house in Beijing. No matter what, I will take this film for myself. I will not fight for anything else!" Guo Yunpeng gritted his teeth as he spoke.

"8 million, our number 32 buyer bid 8 million, is there anyone willing to raise the price?" The host shouted excitedly.

"Nine million." Martin raised his hand again.

"10 million!" Guo Yunpeng called out.

"Twelve million." After Guo Yunpeng finished his sentence, Martin raised his hand and shouted. This time, he even added two million.

"With me?" "Hehe." Martin turned around, glanced at Guo Yunpeng teasingly and said to himself.

"Bastard!" Guo Yunpeng's face was flushed red with anger. He hesitated for a long time, but didn't raise his hand again in the end.

After all, he was a businessman. He would do the first thing, but he would not do the second.

"Twelve million! This mister bids twelve million! Is there any more?" "Twelve million going once … twelve million going twice …"

Seeing that the host was about to fall, Xu Taiping slowly raised his hand and said, "5 million."
