Chapter 180. Hurricane 80 million
Williams was depressed. It is undeniable that he is a good actor and an acting player. He majored in Shakespeare's drama theory when he was in college in the UK. Therefore, Williams believed that he could easily get the job of "childcare" this time.
However, the situation has changed too quickly. Has anyone seen someone who is afraid of selling? Has anyone seen someone who raises the price by 10 million as soon as he opens his mouth? Even if you are a billionaire, you can't spend money like this.
What makes Mr. Williams the most painful is that this situation has never been discussed before.
That's right, Williams made designs and prepared with Hai Baichuan and Uncle Chang. That is, after the auction price exceeds 30 million, the price will be increased by 1 million each time, and the fruit of the final victory will be put into his own pocket. The purpose is only one, and this work must be guaranteed not to be stolen.
But now, people are adding 10 million at a time. What should I do? Should I continue to add 1 million? What's more, the price of 60 million is now twice the expected maximum price of 30 million!
What to do? What to do?
Williams' head was full of this problem.
Just when he was stunned, he seemed to hear the host shouting loudly: "60 million once, 60 million twice, 60 million..."
Before the host could continue to shout, Williams hurriedly raised his hand, his lips trembled, and shouted loudly: "61 million!" After that, he couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
It seems that he has become a joke now. He only adds 10 million at a time, but he only adds 1 million. It is obviously too weak and is weak.
At this time, Williams did not have the arrogance and reserve as before, nor the arrogance and reserve of the noble Lord of the British Empire. Instead, he was like a young wife who was crushed to the ground and tore her clothes, blushing and struggling.
Seeing that someone still raised the price, the white-haired old man just smiled faintly, and then raised the sign again under the expectation. Everyone was waiting for him to continue to raise the price by 10 million, but--
“80 million!”
Williams: "…"
At this moment, his brain completely stopped.
Not only him, but many people stopped. They opened their mouths and looked at the white-haired old man foolishly.
The same is true for Lin Yi. He was completely shocked by what was happening in front of him. Is this still an auction?
Could it be that Hong Kong is really a place where miracles happen?!
It’s no longer 10 million, but a direct price increase of 20 million!
...
"80 million once, 80 million twice, 80 million three times, the deal was completed!"
With a bang, the wooden hammer slammed hard on the platform.
It was not until this time that people suddenly woke up. What's going on? The auction is over?!
Williams also woke up, and then was stunned. He lost the task he was responsible for?
Lin Yi, Uncle Chang, and Hai Baichuan who had just returned to his seat... were all dumbfounded.
80 million, has it been sold?!
...
"Wang Duo sent a handwritten brocade handwritten brocade of poems by John Tang" and sold for HK$80 million.
80 million Hong Kong dollars, totaling RMB 68.68 million.
This price breaks all the records of today's auctions and also breaks the highest price of Wang Duo's calligraphy at previous auctions.
Speaking of which, in recent years, Wang Duo's calligraphy works have soared and achieved great success. In 2007, the cursive poems of the Xiling Seal Society were enthusiastically sought after in the Xiling Seal Society, and were finally sold for 169.12 million yuan, breaking the 10 million yuan mark for the first time. In 2010, Wang Duo's running script "Su Shuiyuan Pavilion Invitation Poems" hand scroll triggered fierce competition in Kuangshi, Beijing. Many buyers refused to give in to each other and were determined to win it. As a result, a buyer won 24.64 million yuan.
In 2010, Wang Duo's "Luozhou Xiangshan Works" and "Sujiang Poetry Scroll" were sold at the Kuangshi Autumn Auction in Beijing for 45.36 million yuan and 36.96 million yuan respectively, setting a new high in Wang Duo's calligraphy auctions.
However, now, Lin Yi's original poem has sold 68.68 million yuan, breaking all auction records and becoming the well-deserved "king" in Wang Duo's calligraphy.
The exciting poem auction has ended, but many people are still immersed in the tension and excitement just now and have not come back to their senses. So many people are not interested in knowing what the host behind is saying.
Hai Baichuan and Uncle Chang's expressions were strange. The seamless auction they had planned and lost control, so that Hai Baichuan's poem that guaranteed Lin Yi that he would not be stolen was actually auctioned out at a sky-high price.
Dizzy, how can Boss Hai feel? How can he face Lin Yi, the treasure-holder?
People don’t want to sell it, but you helped sell it. Although it’s a sky-high price, the friendship is still...it’s a badass.
Boss Hai had a headache, so he immediately sent someone, "Go and check the details of the photographer, who is he?" He couldn't help but look at the white-haired old man again, and he didn't pay any attention to him.
The white-haired old man still sat in ordinary seats, unlike those VIPs, sitting in the front row because he was not very noticeable at the beginning, but now, there is no doubt that he is the most awesome person at the entire auction.
Uncle Chang was a little embarrassed to sit with Lin Yi, but he could best understand Boss Hai's mood at this moment. He raised troops for a thousand days, so he was preparing to enlighten Lin Yi first on behalf of Boss Hai.
"Ahem. I'm sorry, Lin Yi. No one expected that such a situation would happen halfway through. We really didn't want it..." Uncle Chang said to Lin Yi in a very tactful and aggrieved tone.
Lin Yi, expressionless.
Uncle Chang sighed, it seemed that it was not easy to deal with, and there was no response here. If Lin Yi, as a treasure holder, was unwilling to let go, the buyer would sue Xinshi Company. What crime? Fraud!
"Lin Yi, I know you like this poem very much and are reluctant to sell it. But the situation is different now. 80 million Hong Kong dollars is 68.68 million yuan, and such a price is definitely a sky-high price. According to the price increase of calligraphy and painting works, this poem will only increase to such a price for ten years. You can definitely get this money and invest in many projects. I believe that the profit you earn will be much larger than the ones you hide, such as real estate, big hotels... So, the price is really good.
Of course, if you really don’t want to sell this manuscript, I have nothing to say. As the organizer, New Century Auction Company will take on all responsibilities without hesitation. At most, it will be cheated by the other party, file a few lawsuits, and pay a lot of money... As for the future development of New Century Company, it is not within the scope of consideration."
It can be said that Uncle Chang's words were both soft and hard, and both used the temptation method and used a bitter plan. As his old friend, Lin Yi could not be unmoved.
However, Lin Yi still had no expression on his face.
Uncle Chang was speechless. It seemed that he underestimated Lin Yi. Why was he so cunning?
Uncle Chang didn't know that Lin Yi was not expressionless at this time, but was confused.
To be precise, Lin Yi had not woken up from the shock just now, just like the male version of Fairy Zixia, he only guessed the beginning of the story, but did not guess the ending of the story.
80 million Hong Kong dollars, just now he calculated that it was 68.68 million yuan, and he suddenly achieved a well-off life and flew to the branch and turned into a phoenix.
How could he feel like a poor scholar at Taobao in the old book stall?
That's right, he didn't plan to sell the manuscript, but it doesn't mean he didn't react at all when he heard such a high price.
He is also a human being and a young man who desires a career!
...
Just when Lin Yi was in a daze, he heard the host on the stage say: "This poem auction can be said to be the largest order in today's auction, so we are honored to invite the treasure holder of the poem, hoping that he can come on stage and share our happiness!"
After saying this, the host deliberately elongated his tone: "Please---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In one go, everyone looked at the stage, waiting for the lucky one who made a fortune to come on stage.
At this moment, the entire auction site has become a star-like expertise, and it depends on who the big star is.
