After a brief episode, Ye Tian returned to the topic.
He raised his hand to Maria, who was standing in the middle of the first row of the stage, and said passionately:
"Mrs. Maria offered 2.52 billion euros. Thank you for your support. The current price is 2.54 billion euros and 2.54 billion euros. Ladies and gentlemen, who would you please? ?"
As soon as the voice fell, someone in the audience raised his right hand and responded to the offer.
It is no one else who asks for the price, but an old friend from France, Bernard, the richest man in France.
Ye Tianchong, the old friend, nodded gently, and then quoted the new price.
Someone in the audience raised their hands to ask for a price, this time it was the top collector Fried from Germany.
Although Fried raised his hand to respond very quickly, Ye Tian could see very clearly. At the moment he raised his hand, Fried's facial muscles twitched slightly.
Needless to say, the quotation of 2.54 billion euros is almost close to the price limit set by Fried. He can't hold on anymore, and it is estimated that he will soon be defeated!
as predicted!
When the price of "Lisa Gladini" soared to 2.66 billion euros, Fried shook his head helplessly, and announced his withdrawal from the competition with a voice full of regret and unwillingness.
Before him, Dimitris, the top collector from Greece, and another super-rich from Switzerland, had withdrawn from the competition.
At this point, there are only three competitors left, but the battle has become more intense, and the smell of gunpowder in the exhibition hall has become stronger, as if it may explode at any time.
"Steven, 2.7 billion euros"
Maria raised her hand again to respond to the price, directly rushing to the 2.7 billion euro mark, a sky-high price that has never appeared in the history of antique art auctions.
Her voice has not yet fallen, the scene has been frying again.
The exclamation sounded frantically, one after another, endless, and almost everyone on the scene was shocked by this shocking offer.
But this is not the end. When Ye Tian once again quoted a new price of 2.72 billion euros, Silvio, standing on the right side of the first row of the audience, raised his right hand and accepted the price. .
After a few rounds, the "Lisa Gladini" offer has reached 2.8 billion euros.
Faced with this jaw-dropping price, even super-rich people like Maria and Bernard have become more cautious.
They have been thinking about it longer, the speed of raising their hands in response to prices has not been as fast as before, and their faces have become more and more solemn.
Finally, someone resignedly withdrew from the competition, with endless regrets.
This time, it is Berlusconi, the former richest man and former prime minister of Italy, who has broken through his price ceiling of 2.8 billion euros. He can only choose to withdraw.
There are only two competitors left, Maria and Bernard, one is the richest man in Italy and the other is the richest man in France, with net worth of tens of billions of euros!
In a blink of an eye, there were several rounds of bidding, and the price of "Lisa Gladini" easily exceeded 2.9 billion euros and was quickly approaching 3 billion euros.
"OK! Mr. Bernard agrees. The current offer is 2.96 billion euros, 2.96 billion euros, Maria, do you agree?"
Ye Tian excitedly announced the new price loudly, and looked at Maria to see how she would respond.
Maria, who was standing in the first row of the stage, her eyes were a little red at this time, and she was extremely excited.
She turned her head and looked at Bernard not far away, then looked at Ye Tian behind the auction table, then bit her back teeth and raised her right hand, and said loudly:
"Three billion euros, Steven, today I must win this masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci, "Lisa Gladini", at all costs, because it is the signature of our next series of products!"
"hiss--!"
Everyone on the scene took a breath of air-conditioning, shocked, and even a little bit unable to believe what they had just heard!
Three billion euros! Shouldn't it be Italian Lira? When is the euro so worthless?
At the same time, the same thought came to everyone's mind.
Maria is completely crazy and has lost her mind!
Even Bernard, the richest man in France, shook his head when he heard this offer, and even let out a cold air on his back.
Like everyone else, he secretly sighed. It is unreasonable for a woman who is in madness, especially a rich old woman, who cannot be treated with common sense at all!
"Wow! Three billion euros, this is an amazing offer, this is an extremely perfect night! Maria, I love you so much, you are definitely one of the most beautiful and **** women in the world! "
Ye Tian exaggeratedly said loudly, opened his arms and made a gesture of trying to hug Maria.
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter from the exhibition hall, and everyone burst into laughter.
The person involved, Maria, also burst into laughter, and gently waved at Ye Tian, meaning to let him stop messing around.
Betty and David are also the same, each of them laughed, leaned back and forth with joy, and was almost crazy with excitement.
With this piece of laughter, the atmosphere in the exhibition hall suddenly became a lot easier. The choking smell of gunpowder that had permeated the air before seemed to be dispersed by this piece of laughter.
When the laughter fell slightly and the scene was a little quieter, Ye Tian's clear and magnetic voice immediately came out again and passed into everyone's ears at the scene.
"Maria quoted 3 billion euros. The current price is 3.20 billion euros and 3.20 billion euros. That gentleman should ask for it? Bernard, it's time for you to stand up!"
While reporting the new price loudly, Ye Tian also looked at Bernard, looking forward to seeing this old friend raise his right hand again!
But things backfired, he didn't see the picture he wanted to see most!
Bernard, the richest man in France, first looked at Maria, nodded gently at the other party, and greeted her!
Immediately afterwards, he turned his head back to look at Ye Tian, and then gently shook his head reluctantly announced his withdrawal from the competition, eyes full of regret and unwillingness.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian immediately understood that this almost crazy art auction that made everyone's jaw-dropping finally came to an end, the result was extremely perfect!
Not only him, but everyone else also realized this, and the scene suddenly became noisy.
"3,20 billion euros, is there anyone asking for a price? This is the last opportunity. Don't miss it, otherwise you will only regret it..."
Ye Tian suppressed his excitement forcibly, and asked loudly twice.
This is a routine procedure and I still have to go through it again.
Seeing that no one raised his hand to respond to the price at the scene, Ye Tian immediately raised the auction mallet in his hand, then fell down and slammed it directly onto the auction platform.
"boom!"
With this extremely beautiful sound that resounded through the entire exhibition hall, an art auction record that will sensationalize the entire world was born!
"Three billion euros, a deal! The final winner of this bid is Maria. Congratulations, Maria, for successfully winning this masterpiece by Leonardo, "Lisa Gladini"
While announcing the deal loudly, Ye Tian also reached out to the excited Maria in the audience.
"Papa Papa"
Thunderous applause resounded suddenly, resounding throughout the entire exhibition hall, the entire Vatican Museum, and soon it would resound throughout Italy and the entire world!
Amidst the applause, Ye Tian strode down from the auction stage.
Within a few steps, he walked up to Maria and directly gave the richest Italian man a warm hug!
