The auction is connected, and the auction company prepares a sumptuous dinner for all guests.

However, many people left. Some of them had already bought their favorite baby in the afternoon auction, and they were no longer participating in the evening auction.

Also, I don’t like to sit here and eat with strangers, so I would rather go out to eat by myself.

Luo Hao and the others did not go out, including Mr. Xu and Shi Xun, all stayed at the venue.

The most important thing for them is the auction at night. The birds bid more than 70 million to the phoenix. How many can the mandarin ducks play in the water be sold?

Everyone is looking forward to it,

The dinner prepared by Lin Yi for everyone is indeed of high quality, including bird's nest, shark fin, abalone and lobster. A single table of delicacies costs at least tens of thousands.

However, compared with the more money the auction company makes, these are insignificant.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the auction officially began. The leftovers had been cleaned up by the hotel staff. The table was filled with tea and snacks. Luo Hao held a handful of pistachios in his hand and quietly waited for the start of the evening auction.

The auction at night is the highlight for Lin Yi.

Zheng Jie quickly came to the stage, and the first auction item was a Yuan blue and white porcelain plate.

Since Christie's in London auctioned the picture can of Guiguzi's downhill character at a high price of 230 million yuan in 2005, Yuan blue and white porcelain has become popular all over the world and has been sought after by countless Chinese people.

When it comes to Yuan blue and white porcelain, many people will naturally think that this kind of porcelain is very expensive.

In fact, the same is true. As long as it is Yuan blue and white, it will not be too cheap, especially the Yuan blue and white jar, which is also a representative one.

Whether it is the figure patterns or the flower and bird patterns, the value of Yuan blue and white is not low.

However, small objects such as plates are much cheaper than large jars. The starting price of this Yuan blue and white porcelain plate is only three million, which is being fiercely contested.

In the end, it was sold by a collector who loved Yuan blue and white for 8.5 million yuan.

The first square bottle of Qianlong Qing Dynasty blue and white in the afternoon was auctioned for only 2.2 million yuan, and the first piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain plate in the evening was auctioned for more than 8 million yuan. The specifications of the auction items in the evening were higher than those in the afternoon.

Liu Hongsheng had already arrived at the auction site, and his agent, his secretary, stood quietly behind him.

Liu Hongsheng just watched others bidding quietly, and his only goal was Luo Hao's mandarin ducks playing in the water.

He had seen this work before, when the Jade Carving Competition Organizing Committee was displaying it.

With just one glance, he was deeply attracted by this work, especially the magic of the work after it was poured into water, which made him even more fascinated.

He knew very well that this was equivalent to the value of the national treasure artifact and jade. For this auction, he prepared a full 300 million yuan in advance.

But the hundreds of birds pay tribute to the phoenix is ​​a bit beyond his budget. Fortunately, there are not many more. He still has more than 200 million funds to use. As long as there are not too many competitors, he still has great hope of winning it.

After the auction of the Yuan blue and white porcelain, the second auction item was an ancient gold-questioned Buddha statue.

The autumn auction organized by Linyi Auction Company is of high quality and is all high-quality products. In the afternoon auction, the lowest starting price is a jade plaque. Even if it is the lowest, it will have a starting price of 300,000 yuan.

It can be said that most of the auction items were worth more than one million, and there were also many more than ten million.

According to Lin Yi's estimate, the auction of the entire auction will be at least 500 million yuan, which will be considered successful.

For these 500 million yuan, Luo Hao's two works are worth only 100 million yuan. If Luo Hao's two works are removed, the remaining auction items will have to be auctioned for 400 million yuan.

However, the final transaction price of Luo Hao's birds paying phoenix is ​​far higher than Lin Yi's estimate. The birds paying phoenixes cost more than 70 million, so the mandarin ducks play in the water will only be even higher.

If the mandarin ducks can get 100 million yuan in water play, or more than 100 million yuan in filming, and Luo Hao’s two works alone will be 200 million yuan, then this autumn auction will be a complete success.

The auction continued, and Zhang Daqian's work brought a small climax to the auction.

Lin Yi's autumn auction has not many calligraphy and painting works, but the ones that appear are all top-notch quality products.

Time passed slowly, and soon there was only the last auction item left, the real finale of this autumn auction.

Luo Hao's jade carvings, mandarin ducks playing in the water.

When taking out this work, Lin Yi specially asked someone to make a water shower device, so that the magic of mandarin ducks playing in the water will be displayed all the time.

The most intuitive vision can stimulate more people who want to bid for this work, thereby obtaining higher prices.

Zheng Jie rarely introduces the mandarin ducks playing in the water.

When a hundred birds paid homage to the phoenix before, Zheng Jie had already introduced Luo Hao, so there was no need to repeat it. He only said one sentence in this work.

"This is proof that Luo Hao has advanced to the Grandmaster!"

That’s right, the mandarin ducks playing in the water, the real masterpiece, and it is also Luo Hao’s first work to be promoted to the master.

Such works have greater significance in collecting them.

The starting price of the mandarin duck playing in the water is 35 million.

When Zheng Jie mentioned the starting price, Lin Yi was still regretting that the starting price was set at a low price, and there was no problem in setting a 50 million yuan.

Unfortunately, all kinds of starting prices are set in advance and cannot be changed. I just look at the auction for a while. The rich people who come to play in the water for mandarin ducks can finally get this work to a price of more than a high.

Employees of auction companies, including Lin Yi, will be very nervous.

Mr. Xu and Shi Xun also stared at the stage, looking at Luo Hao's work.

Speaking of which, they had known that Luo Hao had been promoted to the Grandmaster, but this was the first time they had actually seen this Grandmaster work.

The same is true for Shang Xin, He Pingjiang, Tao Hanming and others. The value of this work auction has far-reaching significance to the entire jade carving industry.

"Three thousand six million!"

"Three thousand seven million!"

“…”

"Fifty million!"

Not long after, the price of mandarin ducks playing in the water exceeded 50 million, but everyone understood that this was just the beginning and not the true value of this work.

Even a hundred birds can be photographed with more than 70 million yuan, and mandarin ducks playing in the water will only be higher. If the price of mandarin ducks playing in the water is lower than that of a hundred birds watching the phoenix, it only means that someone deliberately manipulated it.

By then, the auction will be stink.

"Five eight million!"

"Sixty million!"

In less than two minutes, the price of mandarin ducks playing in the water exceeded 60 million, and there were many people bidding. Liu Hongsheng kept staring at the works on the stage and did not bid.

"Seventy-three million!"

"Seventy-four million!"

Three minutes later, the bidding price of mandarin ducks playing in the water exceeded the bidding price of hundreds of birds paying phoenixes and continued to rise. At this time, there were still as many as six or seven people participating in the bidding.

These people have not given up yet.

"Eighty million!"

Half a minute later, Liu Hongsheng made his first bid, raising the price to more than 80 million.

"Eighty-five million!"

Another person directly added five million. It seemed that the mandarin ducks played in the water exceeded 100 million, and there was no problem at all.

President Zhou and his team estimated the price of Yuanyang playing in the water, between 80 million and 150 million, but now it has only reached their valuation range.

"Ninety million!"

In less than a minute, the mandarin ducks played in the water exceeded 90 million, and with the handling fee, it was 100 million.

Today, the first single product was auctioned for more than 100 million, which was born.

Before, Zhang Daqian's painting was sold at a high price of more than 70 million yuan, which was only a little higher than the birds paying phoenix.

"One hundred million!"

Not long after, Liu Hongsheng raised his bid again, and this time the direct bid price reached 100 million, and many people looked at him.

It was crazy to bid for a jade carving of 100 million yuan.

But is this work the masterpiece?

It seems to feel worth it.

After 100 million, it really exceeded 100 million. Lin Yi felt relieved. There are still many people competing now. It seems that 100 million is not the end. As for the final transaction price of this work, even Lin Yi can't guess it now.

After more than 100 million, Shi Xun and Mr. Xu and others felt much more relaxed.

The lowest psychological price they give for this work is 100 million yuan. If they don’t reach 100 million yuan, they will take it and will not give it to others.

"One million!"

After 100 million, someone will increase the price. The price of the mandarin ducks playing in the water will be increased by at least one million each time, which is increased according to the lowest price.

"One hundred and fifteen million!"

"One hundred million!"

The competition continues, and everyone who participates in the competition is in a hurry to see their competitors give up quickly and let them take this work.

Those who are not involved in the competition will have a faster heartbeat. Only when they are in this occasion can they know the madness of this competition.

"One hundred and fifteen million!"

"One to 120 million!"
