The auction is about to begin, and the auction hall of Christie's auction house is crowded with people and it is very lively!
Many jewelers and individual buyers from all over the world have gathered in this auction hall, chatting with friends around, while waiting for the auction to begin, ready to fight!
While talking, the door of the lounge on the right in front of the auction hall suddenly opened. Under the leadership of Henry, Ye Tian and Betty walked into the auction hall hand in hand and appeared in everyone's sight!
At this time, Ye Tian still carried the titanium alloy portable safe in his hand, which was very eye-catching.
Mattis and Anderson, Taylor and Lisa, and the other armed security personnel, all stayed in the lounge.
Through the monitoring screen provided by Christie's auction house, they are always watching the situation in the auction hall, just in case!
If something unexpected happens in the auction hall, Matisse and the others can rush out of the lounge at any time and provide protection for Ye Tian and Betty as quickly as possible!
In addition, the Dutch translator provided by Christie's auction house also stayed in the lounge and provided Ye Tian with translation services through wireless headphones.
Although Antwerp is located in the Dutch-speaking area, buyers of this auction come from all over the world. The language of the auctioneer is English, and there is no language barrier!
After walking into the auction hall, Ye Tian quickly glanced at the audience, put a big smile on his face, and nodded to everyone!
Then he took Betty, followed Henry strode forward, and went straight to the two positions in the middle of the first row of the auction hall, which were the VIP seats reserved for them by Christie's auction!
The first moment they appeared, everyone in the auction hall was stunned for a moment, as if they couldn't believe their eyes.
Immediately afterwards, the entire auction hall was completely fried.
"Let me go! Why did this crazy guy like Steven appear here? Reading the news in the morning, isn't he still in Brussels? Is it possible that he came to Belgium for this jewellery and diamond auction?
If this is the case, then the trouble will be big. According to legend, this guy Steven has always been extremely hot in auctions. It is not a good thing to compete with such a crazy guy! "
"I have a good show today! I don't know what Steven's goal is? It's best not to conflict with me, otherwise, the buddy is likely to be defeated."
"Did you see the portable safe in Steven's hand? I'm sure that the stuff in it is 100% of Queen Mary's top jewelry!
It would be great to see the priceless treasures with your own eyes, especially the famous diamond necklace that is closely related to the French Revolution and is known as unprecedented. It must be extremely luxurious! "
Amidst the heated discussion, Ye Tian and Betty had walked to their seats, turned around and sat down.
Immediately afterwards, Henry began to introduce him to several heavyweights sitting around, either the world-famous top jewelers or the super rich.
Of course, there are several women who are crazy about diamonds. Behind every woman is a super rich man or a super rich family!
"Steven, this is Mr. Benin, a well-known Israeli diamond tycoon, from the Steinmetz family of Israeli business tycoons, and is the world's richest diamond producer.
This is Mr. Zheng from Hong Kong, your compatriot. His family is the world's largest jewelry and diamond retailer and the largest diamond buyer in Antwerp.
This Mr. Liu is also from Hong Kong. He is a business wizard and a well-known super-rich in Hong Kong. You must have heard of this. The lady next to him is Mr. Liu’s wife.
A little further away is Mr. Lawrence, the founder of Graf, a famous British luxury jewelry brand. The lady sitting next to him is from Van Cleef & Arpels,..."
Following Henry's introduction, Ye Tian greeted these famous figures in the jewelry field one by one, and made a self-introduction, showing impeccable performance.
After the introduction, Henry left, and went to prepare for the upcoming auction!
Ye Tian nodded to everyone again, then turned back, and while reading the auction manual with Betty, he chatted in a low voice, waiting for the auction to begin.
After chatting, a voice suddenly came from the left.
"Mr. Steven, can you please tell me? Are the top jewellery of Queen Mary in your portable safe?
If so, can you open my eyes and appreciate the top jewellery? Especially the famous diamond necklace, I want to see it with my own eyes!
That is a famous diamond necklace that is said to be unprecedented. As a jeweler, I really want to see how luxurious it is, whether it is unprecedented! "
The person who asked out loud was Israeli jewelry tycoon Benin!
While inquiring, his eyes were always fixed on the portable safe on the ground in front of Ye Tian, his eyes were extremely hot, his eyes shone straight!
Not only him, but the other famous jewelers and those super-rich buyers sitting in the first row were all staring at the portable safe on the ground in front of Ye Tian, with envy in every eye, wishing to make it his own!
Ye Tian turned to look at the Israeli diamond tycoon next to him, then smiled and said:
"You guessed it, Mr. Benin, what is in this safe is the top jewellery originally belonging to Queen Mary that I found in the antique shop in Brussels!
Because the time is relatively short, I haven't had time to deposit them in the vault, so I took them with me and brought them to this auction hall. It was a bit abrupt and made everyone laugh!
When this jewellery auction is over, I will send them to the safest vault in Antwerp and keep them in a safe place. This is a bit too shameless to carry.
Not long after these jewellery reappeared in the world, there are still a lot of noises around them, this is not a suitable place, so I am very sorry, I can not meet your request! "
"Hey! If that's the case, then forget it, it's a shame, this is indeed not a suitable place!"
Benin sighed slightly, his words full of regret.
As soon as his voice fell, behind Ye Tian suddenly came a bunch of Hong Kong and popular people, from Mr. Liu sitting in the second row, the Hong Kong super rich.
"Xiao Ye, how old are you in my idiot, is it okay to call you that?"
Ye Tian turned to look at the Hong Kong compatriot, then smiled and nodded and said:
"No problem, Mr. Liu, I am a lot younger than you. You call me Xiaoye without any problems, so it sounds kind, do you have anything to ask?"
Mr. Liu chuckled and nodded, his eyes flashed with appreciation.
"That's it, Xiaoye, I saw a picture of that famous diamond necklace on the news this morning. It is indeed incredibly luxurious and unique!
As you know, I like to buy all kinds of top jewels and diamonds, and I am always happy. I want to buy that famous diamond necklace and give it to my wife!
The price is easy to say, as long as it is within a reasonable range, I can accept it. How about, are you interested in selling that famous diamond necklace? "
Without hesitation, Ye Tian immediately gave the answer, of course he refused!
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Liu, as to how to deal with Queen Mary's top jewelry, I already have a clear solution, and I don't plan to change it.
I am going to make a deal with the Louvre or Fontainebleau to exchange those jewellery for a batch of heavyweight Chinese antique artworks and then ship the antique artworks back to China!
If unsurprisingly, the museum curators of the Louvre and Fontainebleau in France, as well as relevant appraisers, are rushing to Antwerp at this time and will be able to get here soon.
One more thing, although those jewels are extremely luxurious and even unique, they are not suitable for us Chinese to wear and are not good things.
The top jewellery surrounding Queen Mary, God knows how many people died, it can be said that the killers are rolling, and this is the most taboo of us Chinese! "
Hearing this, Mr. Liu couldn't help being silent.
After thinking about it, he nodded and said:
"You're right, Xiaoye, the **** smell on those things is too heavy and there are too many grievances attached to them! It is really not suitable for us Chinese to wear, especially Hong Kong people, who pay more attention to these!"
While we were talking, the door of another lounge behind the auction table opened, and the host and auctioneer stepped out of it and stepped onto the auction table!
