Chapter 138： : The beaten oligarch

In the first half of the auction, Lu Ning, Istanbul and Antonio, did not participate in the auction. These antique cars with a large number of possessions are not the choice of a few people, but Friedmansky used more than 3 million auctions. I got a few cars off, and every time I took a picture, I looked at Lu Ning triumphantly, as if showing off.

A few little kids, what's the point of having a great family background, does your family give you so much money? Come to the auction, a joke.

Friedmansky understood the inaction of Lu Ning and others as embarrassment.

It’s no wonder that at an age like Lu Ning, family support is generally not strong.

Looking at Friedmansky's triumphant expression, both Istanbul and Antonio also sneered. The hillbilly bought a few antique cars with so many possessions at a high price, so where are they self-righteous.

And Lu Ning directly ignored this financial oligarch, barking, in a few years it will be the end of your group of oligarchs, and now they can come out very hard, and in a few years they will become exiles.

Competing with you like this, falling prices.

During the intermission, Friedmansky, who thought he had a good harvest, took out a cigar triumphantly, and went to the cigar room with a pace of two to eighty thousand.

"Fuck, I almost couldn't help it just now. Seeing that guy's face, I couldn't wait to smoke him." The first person to complain was Antonio, the hottest temper.

"Forget it, the first half was just an appetizer. You didn't realize that the face of the auctioneer just now was almost full of laughter, and the few cars that were not very expensive were taken away by the financial oligarch."

Istanbul sneered, and he didn’t know how to describe the oligarch’s vision, the waste in the eyes of others, but he was treated as a treasure, and Istanbul specially helped him to calculate it. It was a premium of more than 100%. Yes, no wonder the auctioneer’s face was filled with such a happy smile.

Who would be unhappy to meet such a rich second fool.

Friedmansky didn't even know that, in the eyes of everyone, he was already a typical representative of people who are stupid and rich.

. . .

. . .

The second half of the auction is the focus. The first car is the 1958 Ferrari 250GTSWBCaliforniaSpyder.

This Ferrari 250GT produced a mere 106 units from 1957 to 1962, with 280 horsepower and a 4-speed manual transmission.

The first protagonist of this auction is truly on stage.

Lu Ning had also taken a fancy to this Ferrari 250GT before, but after listening to Istanbul’s words, he set his goal on the last Ferrari 250GTO.

"Everyone, the starting price of this car is 2 million U.S. dollars."

The successor model of this car is "Ferrari California", which is one of Ferrari's classic models. Of course, the price of the successor mass-produced car is completely incomparable with this Ferrari 250GT.

"3000000."

"5000000."

"5.5 million."

The price is being fired more and more quickly, but this can't stop everyone's pursuit of it.

"8 million." Friedmansky thought he was domineering and reported a number. He thought he would be the same as before. Everyone was shocked by his heroism. Then he stopped all hands and became the owner of this Ferrari 250GT. .

However, the fact is that Friedmansky slapped a big mouth.

"8.5 million."

"9 million."

The price quoted by Friedmansky was surpassed without staying for a second.

Everyone was a little sneer in their hearts, Earth Leopard, the car before was foolish, we will let you, really think I am so rich? They are all buying scraps at high prices.

And this Ferrari 250GT, its estimated price is already around 12 million.

Who do you want to fool you when you quote a price of 8 million?

"Hey, brothers, you guys don't have any demand, right? I'm going to get on the boy." Antonio saw that the price was almost the same, and he said hello to Lu Ning and Istanbul, and he was about to make a move.

"Whatever." Lu Ning made a light gesture.

After hearing a few people’s conversations, Friedmansky sneered a little. What kind of pretense, can you guys have money to participate in? Now it's almost breaking through 10 million, not 1 million, what to pretend, but the next second, the price quoted by Antonio surprised Friedmansky.

"15 million." Antonio was the first in a small group like Lu Ning to raise his hand to participate in the offer.

If you don’t make a move, you will take it. One shot is a sky-high price of 15 million.

Friedmansky: Damn, are all young people so arrogant now? Increase the price by 5 million as soon as you sell? What's wrong with him, when is the dollar worthless?

Antonio’s first offer made most people lose interest in bidding.

has exceeded the estimated value of 3 million. Buy this number back, but the collection is another way to say that if you want to sell it exclusively, it will not necessarily increase to this price without spending ten years of work.

This makes many buyers who choose to resell or speculate directly lose their desire.

After Anthony shouted the price, he cast a glance at Friedmansky. The meaning was very clear. You are not hao, keep up.

Friedmansky was stimulated and called out the price of 16 million.

But, as soon as I finished shouting, Friedmansky regretted it. It was $16 million. How could I be impulsive.

The financial turmoil in 1998 left Friedmansky with a lot of injuries. He finally stopped the bleeding by selling two buildings.

Now in a sigh of relief, he even called out the sky-high price of 1,60010,000. "Fortunately, Friedmanski did not worry for long, and a Belgian car collector reported a new price.

"17 million" Antonio is as stable as Mount Tai on the surface at the moment, but he is also very anxious, 17 million is almost his limit.

I didn't expect that I increased the price by 5 million at once and still didn't scare others.

"17.5 million." The other party was still bidding and added another 500,000.

"18 million." This is Antonio's last offer. No matter what price the other party offers, Antonio is not going to increase the price, otherwise, he will eat the soil for the whole year from now on.

However, I did not expect that the Belgian collector of the other party was also the last of his kind. After Antonio reported the number of 18 million, he shook his head and stopped bidding.

"18 million, the first time."

"18 million, the second time, there are no more bids."

"18 million, the third time." In Antonio's cannibal eyes, the auctioneer finally fell the hammer reluctantly.

"Congratulations to bidder No. 7 for getting this 1958 Ferrari 250GTSWBCalifornia Spyder for $18 million."

Amid the congratulations from Lu Ning and Istanbul, Antonio stood up gracefully to salute, and once again gave Friedmansky a provocative look.

But this time, Friedmansky didn't pay attention to the other party at all. The feeling of being smashed in the face by others with money made Friedmansky very upset, but what could be done.

This is the United States, and this is the United States where capitalism is supreme. Only with countless dollars can you have the absolute right to speak.
