Chapter 435： I love this crazy world

"100 million dollars, John"

Carlos's art consultant once again raised the placard for bidding, making this "San Victor Mountain" truly enter the ranks of the most expensive artworks!

This is a huge price threshold. The artworks that have crossed this threshold are undoubtedly the top artworks in the world today. They are all the jewels in the crown of art. There are very few, brilliant like stars!

Although everyone in the auction hall had long understood that this top oil painting would surely be sold for a sky-high price of more than 100 million U.S. dollars, everyone was completely shocked to hear someone quote this price.

When Carlos' art consultant reported the price, everyone on the scene immediately stood up.

"Papa Papa"

The applause broke out with great enthusiasm, resounding through the entire auction hall.

Everyone is applauding, and everyone's eyes are full of enthusiasm and envy.

This is applause for the top art! This is the applause for top collectors! It is also the applause for Paul Cezanne, a respect for art!

And to Ye Tian, ​​this was also applause for himself!

He and Jason also stood up and were applauding with everyone. Both of them were extremely excited and laughed brilliantly!

"A hundred million dollars! My God! This is just like a dream, so unreal! Steven, I'm sure that your picture will appear on the front page of all newspapers in New York tomorrow!"

Jason applauded and whispered.

"Hahaha, I am also very sure of this. In addition, you will see photos of "San Victor Mountain" and "The Boy in a Red Vest". These two top oil paintings will surely shock the world!"

Ye Tian said with a smug smile, full of confidence.

The applause fell, and everyone sat down.

Following this, there was a sound of discussion throughout the audience.

"Too fast! The price of "Mount Saint Victor" is soaring so fast, I have never seen it! If this trend continues, I can't imagine the final transaction price, it must be amazing!"

"Of course! It is still very difficult for this painting to surpass the US$274 million "Card Player" and create a new record for the sale of Paul Cezanne's oil paintings. I think it is almost impossible!"

Amidst the discussion, the voice of auctioneer John resounded through the auction hall again.

At this moment, his whole person has become extremely excited, his voice has become more passionate, and the volume has increased by an octave.

"OK! The 66th offer 100 million US dollars, from Mr. Carlos's art consultant, this is the first 100 million yuan bid for the New York autumn auction this year, congratulations to Mr. Carlos, congratulations to Mr. Steven!

As the auctioneer of this auction, I feel very honored. Thank you for your support and for your bidding. Next, I will provide you with a better auction service!

The competition is not over yet, I hope everyone will continue to bid! The current price is 105 million U.S. dollars, 105 million U.S. dollars, which lady or gentleman should offer? Please raise your bid number plate! "

"Hey--!"

There was a sigh in the auction hall, telephone bidding and online bidding.

Every voice is full of disappointment and regret, and also full of unwillingness!

100 million dollars!

This price has broken through the psychological price of most bidders, they can only die and lose out!

This oil painting has no relationship with them, they can only helplessly become spectators, watching the super auction predators shoot again and again with envy, struggling to compete for the top art that can be met but cannot be sought!

The number of competitors dropped abruptly, leaving only five, three at the auction hall and two mysterious buyers bidding over the phone.

There is no doubt that these are the most powerful auction predators, each with a net worth of at least several billion dollars.

And the most powerful Carlos and the royal family of Qatar, the net worth is impossible to estimate!

Bidding continues, and prices are still rising rapidly!

After three rounds, the price of "San Victor Mountain" has reached 125 million U.S. dollars, and the entire auction hall was once again a sensation, with applause!

"Another Paul Cezanne who broke into the top ten global art auction records! It's incredible! It's a crazy day!"

"Edward Munch's "The Scream" has fallen out of the top ten! Leon must be extremely frustrated! Whose work will this "Mount Saint Victor" surpass next? Beyond that famous top artwork?

Is it "Women No. 3" by William de Kooning? Or Jackson Pollock's "No. 5 of 1948"? Or Picasso's "Dream"? Everything is possible, wait and see! "

Amidst the heated discussion, John's voice clearly spread to everyone's ears, and the price of "San Victor Mountain" soared again, reaching 130 million US dollars!

"Papa Papa"

The applause rang frantically again, and it became more enthusiastic!

Everyone in the auction hall stood up. Except for the old people in the front row, no one sat down anymore. Everyone was so excited that they couldn't sit still!

From now on Every time John quotes a price, there will be enthusiastic applause and exclamation.

There is no other reason, because everyone is witnessing history!

In the applause, someone was defeated!

Leon shook his head with a wry smile, and with a face full of disappointment and regret, and reluctant to give up, announced his withdrawal from the competition! Say goodbye to "Mount Saint Victor"!

He is the weakest among the remaining competitors! If you can't fight for money, you can only lose!

The two mysterious buyers on the telephone bidding side also chose to be silent at this time and withdrew from the competition.

The price of 130 million U.S. dollars has penetrated their psychological price point, making them directly reduced from competitors to spectators, and they can only watch that top-level artwork become the possession of others! Sorrowful!

Unlike their loss, Ye Tian was already excited and about to fly, as did Jason next to him.

"Is this still the real world? An oil painting can cost 130 million dollars! It's incredible! Are these billionaires crazy?"

Jason yelled in a low voice while holding his head, his expression was very exaggerated.

"Hahaha, buddy! You are right, these billionaires are crazy! The whole world is crazy! But I love this crazy world so much! Too crazy!"

Ye Tian said with a low smile, the smile was extremely brilliant and heartily!

The competition continues!

Although there are only two contenders left, the battle is even more intense! You are fighting for me, don't give in to each other!

160 million dollars! Amid the applause, John announced the new price loudly again!

This is the fifth highest price in the history of art auctions in the world, and it successfully left Picasso's "Dream" behind! )!!
