Chapter 575: A Painting That Was Wildly Raised


"Ladies and gentlemen, the next thing to be auctioned is an ink painting by a well-known painter from the middle of the Qing Dynasty in Yanxia!"

After the auctioneer finished speaking, he lifted the red silk cloth on the table, and suddenly revealed the true face of the auction item below.This painting, because of some flaws, so the starting price is not high, only 10,000 US dollars.Seeing this, some people who originally contained expectations couldn't help but show some disappointment in their eyes.In fact, this painting was a temporary addition, and the auction house didn't even carefully appraise it, so it was put up for auction.Anyway, no matter whether it's good or bad, in the end, there are patriotic businessmen in the hot summer who pay for it.If it weren't for the fact that it had a trace of Yanxia blood, and that there were so many patriotic businessmen from Yanxia to participate in this auction today, it probably wouldn't have been able to participate in this level of auction.The auctioneer also seemed to think that this thing was not very good-looking, but he still spared no effort to introduce: "This auction item was bought by a wealthy businessman from the hot summer in the fifties of the last century, and it has never appeared in any auction venue and in front of the public, this is its first appearance!"

”Although the auctioneer said that it was passionate, there was a lack of interest from the people below, but it was just an artifact, and some collectors were ready to start bidding.However, Clive, who was sitting next to Qin Fei, suddenly felt Qin Fei's excitement.Qin Fei's eyes widened at this time, as if radiating divine light, carefully examining the picture scroll.Clive asked with some curiosity, "Qin Fei, is there anything wrong with this picture scroll?"

”Qin Fei blinked, retracted his gaze, and smiled: "I like this picture scroll very much." ”Zhang Hongyang on the other side also came up and asked, "Mr.

Qin, is there anything special about this collection?"

”After these rounds of auctions, Zhang Hongyang had already expected that Qin Fei was not a simple rich second generation, and after Qin Fei made several moves, he also had a lot of good feelings for Qin Fei.Qin Fei smiled and explained, "Actually, this is a patchwork painting. ”"Mosaic?"

Zhang Hongyang was stunned, and then complained: "Isn't that much lower than the value of the original painting?"

This group of bastards even used splicing drawings to fool people......

"In fact, this situation of splicing is not uncommon, and it is also a kind of preservation and restoration of cultural relics."

Usually, in this case, most of the time when a work is seriously damaged, find a painter whose painting style is close to the original, splice a part of the paper, and then refill the work according to the previous work.Although this situation is not a fake, because the original painting has been seriously damaged, it is naturally not worth the price of the original painting.For example, this painting itself is a Qing Dynasty painting, and now it has become a mosaic painting, which can be said to be like waste paper, and I am afraid that no one wants thousands of dollars.That's why Zhang Hongyang was indignant, thinking that the auction house deliberately took it out, and it was a sum of money that slaughtered them in the hot summer.Qin Fei smiled slightly and said, "No, although this is a patchwork painting, but ......"

Before he finished speaking, the auction on the stage had already begun.Sure enough, as expected at the beginning, the response to the collection was mediocre, and there were very few bidders.Qin Fei thought about it and decided to take down the painting first, and then reveal the secret he had discovered from the painting, so when the previous person shouted "50,000", he also called a price."

One hundred thousand!"

This price is close to the bottom line in everyone's minds, and the rich businessmen in Yanxia didn't speak again when they saw that it was Qin Fei, their own person.And those foreign consortiums have the intention to raise the price again, and they are also worried that Qin Fei will trap them, after all, this thing really doesn't look valuable."

Okay, this gentleman bid 100,000, is there anything higher?"

The auctioneer did his best to stir up the emotions of the scene."

One hundred thousand, one time!""

One hundred thousand, twice!""

Ten ......"

"Ah, this gentleman on the 40th bid 110,000!"

Congratulations to this gentleman!

”Unexpectedly, someone would bid at this time, Qin Fei frowned slightly, and looked at the person who was bidding below.And the bidder actually looked this way at this time, his eyes were full of pride and provocation.In fact, this rich businessman is one of the collaborators of those consortiums, and he was also assigned a task in this auction of sniping patriotic businessmen in the hot summer.That is, in his own name, try to pull the cheapest calligraphy and painting to a high price, or auction it.According to his estimates, such an ordinary ink calligraphy and painting can be done at most 180,000 yuan, which is not a big deal at all.Spend tens of thousands of dollars to make friends with the financiers of the consortium, so won't their future business be smooth sailing?

Just when he felt that he was nine out of ten, the wayward Yanxia man actually directly raised the price to 100,000 US dollars.Shet!

This rich second generation, is his money really blowing in the wind?

scolded and scolded in his heart, but now those big conglomerates are looking at themselves!

If this is a direct retreat, wouldn't it be a matter of letting the financiers look down on it.100,000 US dollars is not an astronomical amount, so the rich businessman hesitated for a long time, and finally raised the sign in his hand and increased the price once when the auctioneer made the third bid.Although he only added $10,000, he wanted to overwhelm the other party in momentum.He didn't believe that a painting that was originally worth only $10,000 could still be sold for a sky-high price!

Seeing the rich businessman's eyes, Qin Fei immediately understood that that guy was deliberately raising the price.To be honest, if it were any other auction item, the price would be too high, and he would still give it up.But this ink painting, as long as it is past tonight, no, after the auction is over, it will be famous all over the world, and it must not be given up."110,000 once, is there a higher price?"

Hearing the auctioneer's shout, Qin Fei immediately entered the price of 200,000 yuan on the computer quotation.But soon after this price appeared, it was increased by another $10,000!

Looking at the numbers that popped up on the big screen, Qin Fei's eyes narrowed.Could it be that this guy actually knew the inside story of this painting for a long time, so he didn't hesitate to increase the price, or that this painting was deliberately released by the people behind the scenes to fish?

So, Qin Fei entered the third offer without hesitation: 300,000!

Then, just a few seconds later, the other party added another 10,000 like appendages!

Both seem to have become gamblers at the table, throwing away not money, but a bunch of simple numbers.After a few rounds, this seemingly inconspicuous ink painting has exceeded 500,000!

The eyes of everyone around them were all on Qin Fei, waiting for a new round of offers."

Mr.

Qin, I think it's better to forget it!

If you give up now, you'll definitely teach that malicious bidder a lesson!

”Zhang Hongyang turned around again and said.The corners of Qin Fei's mouth raised a smile, if he didn't know the actual value of this painting, he would really have to give up.
