Chapter 234
Seeing that Dongfang Shengnan followed Mr. Gao towards the VIP seats with cold eyes, her eyes crossed Xiao Yun's, but it seemed that she didn't know Xiao Yun at all, and she didn't look at him for even a second. stay.
Mr. Gao nodded to Xiao Yun very politely, and then sat on his seat, while Dongfang Shengnan sat in the seat behind Mr. Gao. Obviously, Mr. Gao also intends to participate in the auction .
Xiao Yun also nodded politely to Mr. Gao, but his eyes turned to Dongfang Shengnan who was sitting there.Xiao Yun did not expect Dongfang Shengnan to appear here.
From the time Zhao Pengcheng gave him the note, Xiao Yun felt that it was impossible for Dongfang Shengnan to appear here at this time, otherwise he would not have written this note hastily.
Xiao Yun looked at Dongfang Shengnan with doubts in his eyes, but Dongfang Shengnan walked to the back row and sat down as if nothing had happened.That expression obviously regarded Xiao Yun as a stranger.
After sitting in the VIP seat, Mr. Gao nodded and greeted the people around him, one of whom was the richest man in the world.
Xiao Yun was a little puzzled. This Mr. Gao obviously came on behalf of the Huaxia government, especially since Dongfang Shengnan was still by his side.However, Dongfang Shengnan sent him another message, telling him not to put the "Diamond Sutra" in the blood jade Guanyin statue.
So, what is the purpose of this Mr. Gao coming here?
Xiao Yun's attention began to focus on Mr. Gao, and soon Xiao Yun found that although the richest man in the world was chatting with Mr. Gao, his smile was a little stiff.Obviously, they understand why Mr. Gao is here.
However, what is the use of this Blood Jade Avalokitesvara statue to make the world's richest man so interested?
While Xiao Yun was thinking about this question, a man in his fifties walked up to the stage and coughed twice.
Xiao Yun turned his head to look, and there was an auction hammer on the podium in front of the man. Obviously, this man was the auctioneer of this auction.
"Good afternoon, gentlemen, ladies, and guests!"
As the middle-aged man's voice came through the loudspeaker, the multi-purpose hall immediately fell silent.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this auction will only auction one collection, which is a Blood Jade Avalokitesvara statue from the Xia and Shang Dynasties in China." As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, murmurs of discussion began to resound in the hall.
A faint smile appeared on the auctioneer's face. Knowing that his statement had aroused everyone's curiosity, he said in a deep voice, "I think you all know that Buddhism was introduced to China from India. The time is around AD. And Guanyin The appearance of the statue was even later. And this blood jade Guanyin statue has an obvious Chinese style, which is completely different from the Indian Guanyin statue. However, according to the latest scientific and technological testing, it was found that the blood jade Guanyin statue was formed about three years ago today. It is about 700 years old, and it is about the work of the late Xia and early Shang Dynasties."
Speaking of this, the auctioneer paused for a moment, and then continued: "This is strange, why is there such a work in the late Xia and early Shang Dynasties that should not belong to that era?"
Then, the auctioneer talked about some scientific speculations. Some said that this item may have traveled through time and space to that era, and the item may have the ability to travel through time and space.It is also said that Buddhist culture should be revised. Buddhist culture may have been the mainstream culture and religious belief in China in the Xia Dynasty.
It is also said that this may be an item of aliens. Aliens once arrived on the earth in that era and left this thing behind, etc., etc...
Although there are different speculations and explanations, one thing is certain, that is, this blood jade Guanyin is definitely not an ordinary antique.
Next, the auctioneer began to briefly describe the shape and size of the Blood Jade Guanyin and other data, and then showed the photos of the Blood Jade Guanyin in the form of a slide show.Pausing occasionally, using a laser pointer to point to some peculiarities of the Blood Jade Guanyin to explain.He also presented the certificate of authorization of the auction by the original owner of the Blood Jade Guanyin, as well as the security contract signed by the person in charge of the security company to which the Blood Jade Guanyin now belongs, to prove that the Blood Jade Guanyin is indeed real.
While the auctioneer was talking little by little, several beautiful waitresses distributed the auction number plates one by one to the bidders who paid the deposit in advance.
When Xiao Yun got the auction number plate, he glanced at Mr. Gao, sure enough, Mr. Gao also got the number plate.
Xiao Yun didn't understand. Since Mr. Gao was about to make a move, did he still need to intervene?Or, is Mr. Gao just here for an insurance policy?In case he runs out of money, let him take over?
When Xiao Yun was thinking about why Mr. Gao and Dongfang Shengnan suddenly appeared here, the auctioneer had already raised the auction hammer on the podium.
"Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, the world's most valuable Blood Jade Avalokitesvara has officially started auctioning. The base price is 5 million US dollars, and the price will increase by 1000 million US dollars each time. Please..."
With the speech of the auctioneer profession, the special auction of Blood Jade Guanyin officially started.
"Blood Jade Avalokitesvara, the base price is 5 million US dollars, ladies and gentlemen, which one will raise the placard?"
"Okay... the gentleman over there raised a sign, 5 million US dollars! 1000 million US dollars, is there any price increase?"
The auctioneer exaggeratedly pointed his auction hammer at a young man behind the VIP seats.
The man in a suit and leather shoes is not handsome, but he is quite well-behaved. However, judging from where he is sitting, he should be an elite figure of the younger generation of a small power. It is not true that he was made to show his face by the elders of the family. Desire to get this blood jade Guanyin.
"Is there anyone who is willing to raise a placard? 1000 million US dollars, this price is not high, is there anyone who wants to increase the price, 1000 million US dollars is the first time..."
The auctioneer yelled loudly, and at the same time pulled the atmosphere of the scene into a state of excitement.
"Okay...the lady over there bid 2000 million US dollars... Obviously, this lady wants to get this blood jade Guanyin even more... I heard that this blood jade Guanyin, please take it home, it has the magical effect of beautifying your face, Although this lady is already extremely beautiful, which lady in this world would think she is beautiful?"
The auctioneer said flatteringly and humorously.
"2000 million for the first time..."
The auctioneer's tone was a little hasty, making it sound as if he wanted to facilitate the auction.
"7000 million... 7000 million... That beautiful lady over there gave an additional 5000 million dollars at one time... It's really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go... Courage, really courage, is there any more? ? Is there anyone more courageous?"
The auctioneer shouted even more sensationally.
Since there are so many forces staring at this thing, and there is such a mysterious source of mystery, it is absolutely impossible for the price to fluctuate in the range of tens of millions of dollars.Instead, it will rise higher and higher.
Now, it is just the beginning, and the real intense bidding is yet to come.Among other things, none of those sitting in the first row of VIP seats had any intention of raising their claps.
Sure enough, as soon as the auctioneer's first hammer of 7000 million US dollars fell, someone raised his card again, and the price was increased to [-] million US dollars.
Immediately, the speed of raising the cards became faster and faster. In less than 2 minutes, the price soared to one billion US dollars, and within 2 minutes, it increased by [-] million US dollars.
At this time, there was still no sign raised in the VIP seats, Xiao Yun understood that the current auction had not yet reached its peak.
When the price increased by another 15 million US dollars to [-] billion US dollars, the enthusiasm of the bidders behind the VIP seats decreased significantly, and the provocative and hasty tone of the auctioneer gradually slowed down.
Because he knows that the auction has really reached its peak now, and if the tone is too fast, it will reduce his commission.
At this moment, the auctioneer looked at Ichiro Yamaguchi who was sitting in the VIP seat, and said in an exaggerated tone: "Wow! It's 16 billion US dollars. Mr. Ichiro Yamaguchi's one-time increase of 1 million US dollars is a big deal! It's extraordinary! What courage to have!"
The auctioneer directly called out Ichiro Yamaguchi's name, and at the same time looked at the lady who offered a price of 15 billion US dollars, and then said with regret: "Hey, it's really a pity, beautiful lady..."
Ichiro Yamaguchi started raising his placard, which meant that the competition among these world-class super rich in the VIP seats had begun.Those sitting in the back row, even if they had the financial resources, would not choose to make a move.
After all, the limelight that should be shown has already been shown, and there is no need to offend these world-class super rich.
Xiao Yun glanced at Ichiro Yamaguchi. At this time, Ichiro Yamaguchi looked calm and smiled at the acquaintances around him from time to time.A one-time price increase of [-] million US dollars may be a sky-high price for ordinary people, but for these world-class super rich sitting in the VIP seats, it is just a small start.
"Mr. Ichiro Yamaguchi's one-time price increase of 16 million US dollars shows the value of this blood jade Guanyin. Ladies and gentlemen, is there any price higher than [-] billion US dollars?"
The auctioneer became excited. Although his commission was fixed at 20 U.S. dollars, if the price exceeded [-] billion U.S. dollars, he would get [-] U.S. dollars in commission for every [-] million U.S. dollars increase. To him, this was not a small sum. .
"Great... 18 million US dollars, Mr. Hawking, the Dutch shipping tycoon, raised the price by [-] million US dollars at one time... [-] million US dollars, the current price is [-] billion US dollars, is there any additional price?"
18 billion US dollars, and now there are only two people in the VIP seats in front of the board holding up their cards. According to this situation, it can be said that it is easy and comfortable to exceed 20 billion US dollars.In other words, his commission will rise again by a large margin.
Xiao Yun still didn't raise his placard, but only counted the people around him.He could see a trace of fanaticism in the eyes of the people around him. He didn't understand why these people were so fanatical about this Blood Jade Guanyin, so Xiao Yun looked at Dongfang not far away from him with questioning eyes. Katsuo.
At this time, Dongfang Shengnan also looked at him, and at the same time made a gesture to Xiao Yun.Signaled to Xiao Yundui to shoot.
Although Xiao Yun didn't understand why Dongfang Shengnan let him intervene in the presence of Mr. Gao, Xiao Yun still raised the bidding sign in his hand.
Mr. Gao nodded to Xiao Yun very politely, and then sat on his seat, while Dongfang Shengnan sat in the seat behind Mr. Gao. Obviously, Mr. Gao also intends to participate in the auction .
Xiao Yun also nodded politely to Mr. Gao, but his eyes turned to Dongfang Shengnan who was sitting there.Xiao Yun did not expect Dongfang Shengnan to appear here.
