As soon as Ma Chao announced that he would auction the last item, the atmosphere in the audience suddenly became tense, as if his nerves were tense for a moment. There is no doubt that everyone present came from all over the country.
Yes, why did you come here? You didn’t come here just for the Flower God Cup. Now it’s finally time to auction the Flower God Cup. Naturally, you are full of expectations and nervousness for the next auction. What you are looking forward to is that the Flower God Cup will finally be auctioned.
What’s exciting is the next auction.
A complete set of Kangxi's colorful December Flower Cups, which have been lost for hundreds of years and have become unique, suddenly appeared in the world. Every flower cup fan and every porcelain lover will go crazy for it.
"In fact, it goes without saying that everyone knows what today's die-cast auction is. Yes, it is a set of colorful December Flower God Cups from the Kangxi Dynasty. Judging from the existing handed down products, whether it is painting or tire making, the Flower God Cup is
It is the pinnacle of craftsmanship in the Kangxi official kilns. However, such important Kangxi official kiln wares have never appeared in complete sets over the past hundred years, which has become a great pity in the collection world and a mystery that has never been solved.
The mystery remains unsolved, and just when friends in the collecting world thought that the complete set of Kangxi Dynasty’s colorful December Flower God Cups had become a legend, our Dingsheng Auction House suddenly received a commission from a friend in the collecting world..."
After Ma Chao's eloquent words, the atmosphere of the whole place was completely heightened. The atmosphere at the scene could be said to be exciting. Everyone was working hard and waiting to get this set of Flower God Cups in one go.
I got it. In fact, there was no need for Ma Chao to adjust the atmosphere. There were so many people present, but there was only one set of Flower God Cups. This meant that only one person could successfully take the set of Flower God Cups in the end. When the auction came, the competition would be fierce.
Needless to say how intense it is, the bidding has not started yet at this moment, and the atmosphere in the whole place has already become a bit intense.
"Please wait a moment. I'm very sorry to interrupt you. First of all, I would like to explain that I am a very loyal fan of the Flower God Cup. I would like to ask your company if you can reveal the origin of this client. I am very interested in this client.
I am very interested and want to communicate with him. I think most people present may have the same idea as me..."
Just when Ma Chao was about to announce the auction of the Hua Shen Cup, a voice suddenly sounded from the audience and interrupted Ma Chao's words, causing everyone present to look around. The person who called out was a young man. After listening to the young man's words,
Everyone in the venue turned their attention to Ma Chao on the auction stage. Obviously, as the young man said, everyone also wanted to know who this client was. In fact, this problem had existed long before this.
Many people have asked, but Dingsheng Auction House replied that it must comply with the customer's requirements and keep them confidential.
"I'm very sorry, I can't answer your question. The client requested that his identity be kept confidential when entrusting our auction house. The purpose of our auction house is to focus on integrity, so we cannot disclose it without the client's consent.
Its identity..."
The young man suddenly interrupted Ma Chao, but Ma Chao was startled. For the auctioneer, the auction house is like a battlefield. It is not an exaggeration to call it ever-changing. It is very likely that a small accident will lead to the final disaster.
The auction failed. Ma Chao was shocked, but he did not panic at all. He answered the young man's question in a leisurely manner. Although he rejected the young man's request, his words obviously did not arouse the resentment of other people in the scene.
The celebrities and experts in the collection industry who participated in this auction nodded secretly.
Almost all of these celebrities and experts in the collection industry have auctioned things in a way that conceals their identities. After all, sometimes they will receive some things that cannot be seen in the light. If they want to sell them, they naturally have to conceal their identities. Then
The reputation of the auction house is also very important.
In fact, Ma Chao didn't know the identity and origin of the client. This kind of thing was not something he, an auctioneer, should worry about. All he had to do was auction this set of Flower God Cups for a sky-high price.
"I can reveal that although I can't answer your question now, after the auction, maybe you will know the answer. In addition, this consignor is very likely to be sitting in our auction hall now..."
Ma Chao deserves to be the chief auctioneer of Dingsheng Auction House. He could not answer the young man's question, which naturally disappointed the people present. This disappointment caused some changes in the atmosphere of the whole place. In order to bring the atmosphere back, he immediately added
With just one sentence, the atmosphere in the whole place suddenly exploded, even causing a commotion.
"I'm sitting right here."
Hearing Ma Chao's words, Bai Lei, who was sitting below, responded with a playful smile. Of course, his words were deliberately lowered.
"Sit down, you little brat."
Mr. Bai glared, stretched out his foot and kicked him hard. Before that, Mr. Bai knew that Chen Ran wanted to keep his identity secret. In fact, during this period, about the Flower God Cup,
All decisions made by Dingsheng Auction House have been communicated with Mr. Bai.
Of course, this was done with Chen Ran's permission. Chen Ranle was so relaxed that he directly gave all the power to Mr. Bai.
Regarding the issue of keeping the identity confidential, Mr. Bai also agrees. It is better to keep the identity secret before the auction, so as to avoid accidents. After all, many people will be jealous of important official kiln artifacts such as the complete set of Flower God Cups, and even Mr. Bai would not dare to
It is guaranteed that the country will take action. It is not that the country takes action. It is the so-called experts who are jealous. After learning Chen Ran's identity, they may use various national righteousness to force Chen Ran and take the complete set of Flower God Cup.
Sold to the country at a low price.
Chen Ran is not worried about this now, but it is better to avoid trouble. Hiding his identity will transfer the pressure to Dingsheng Auction House. Dingsheng Auction House is ranked among the top ten domestic auction houses.
Yes, the influence is still very great, and it can withstand this pressure. Of course, the main reason is that although the Flower God Cup is valuable, it is not a national treasure with great influence after all. If it were a national treasure, Dingsheng Auction House might not be able to withstand it.
This pressure.
Chen Ran was looking at the auctioneer on the stage when such a sentence suddenly sounded in his ears, which startled him. If his identity was exposed now, just imagine the consequences. Seeing that other people did not
I felt relieved after hearing Bai Lei's words.
He glared at the kid angrily. The auctioneer's words made him dumbfounded. He didn't know whether the auctioneer really knew what he was sitting here or was just talking nonsense. He looked around and found that there were
Everyone else was looking around, obviously looking for the client.
In the past few days, apart from the fact that the Flower God Cup has been highly hyped, the most hyped thing is who is the owner of this set of Flower God Cups. Everyone also wants to know how this person collected the complete set.
, after all, the rarity of the Flower God Cup is well known.
In fact, Chen Ran's identity is about to be exposed on the Internet at this moment, but he has not been contacted yet. What has been exposed are the movements of the Huashen Cup in the industry during this period, such as one auctioned by the Nanjing Auction House.
The Flower God Cup was taken away by a mysterious person, and the treasure of the antique store in Beijing was also taken away by a mysterious person... These have all been spread, but they are a bit scattered, and some of them cannot be sure who the buyer is.
If we get in touch, it will surely be discovered that the person who took away these Flower God Cups is the same person.
"Okay, if friends have no other questions, then our auction has officially started. We are now bidding on a set of Kangxi Dynasty colorful December Flower God Cups. The starting price is five million yuan. Interested friends are invited to bid.
Well, let’s see, in the past hundred years, whose family will have a set of Flower God Cups that have never appeared once? Who will be the lucky winner of this set of Flower God Cups? I believe this lucky winner will definitely be recorded in history.
of……"
The last three sentences of Ma Chao were almost shouted, and the atmosphere of the whole place was immediately cheered.
After Ma Chao finished speaking, he waited quietly for the bidder to bid. As Ma Chao finished speaking, Chen Ran's heart suddenly rose. He would be lying if he said he wasn't nervous. He was really nervous at this moment.
My palms were sweating, and I felt my heart was in my throat.
It’s not surprising that he was nervous. After all, the Flower God Cup that was going to be auctioned was his, and it concerned him. When encountering something like this, he would naturally be nervous. For him, this was just the first set of Flower God Cups, and he still wanted to be nervous.
There are six sets, and these seven sets of Flower God Cups represent his entire net worth. Whether he can get a high price depends on the first set. If the first set fails to be auctioned, then there is no need to sell the subsequent sets.
Not to mention Chen Ran, this kid Bai Lei, if Mr. Jiang hadn't given him a hand, this kid would have stood up nervously.
Even Mr. Bai and Mr. Jiang couldn't help but muster up their spirits at this moment to prepare for the scene of crowds of people, whispering, frequent quotations and placards.
However, these scenes that should have appeared at the auction site did not appear. After Ma Chao finished speaking, the huge auction site suddenly became silent...
"The last item to be auctioned is a set of colorful December Flower God Cups from the Kangxi Dynasty. The starting price is five million..."
There was a cold scene, but Ma Chao was not anxious at all. He has been an auctioneer for more than ten years, and he has rich experience. He has seen a lot of cold scenes. Sometimes being cold does not mean that no one wants it, but it means that no one wants it.
He wanted it so much, and he knew that everyone else wanted it too, so he didn't want to take the risk. This is also a characteristic of the Chinese people, that is, the herd mentality, so he was not in a hurry. He stayed in silence for five minutes before returning.
Shout once.
What was somewhat beyond his expectation was that after he shouted again, the people below didn't know what they were thinking, but still no one answered.
"The last item to be auctioned is a complete set of Kangxi Dynasty colorful December Flower God Cups that have not appeared once in a century. The starting price is 5 million. Does anyone have a bid?"
After calling twice, no one answered. When he called for the third time, Ma Chao was no longer so calm, and a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead unconsciously.
At auctions, good things do not mean that they will not be sold unsold. It is also normal for some treasures to be unsold, such as those involving politics, or involving some people, or those that are under pressure, or those that are controversial.
…When these situations occur, the auction may be rejected.
After calling three times, no one answered, so Ma Chao couldn't help but think about the worst.
The huge auction hall was full of people, but it was completely silent at this moment. No one made a sound. They seemed to be holding their breath at this moment.
This was an unprecedented cold scene. Chen Ran, Mr. Bai, and Mr. Jiang couldn't help but look at each other with big eyes and small eyes...
