Chapter 473 Crazy Flower Sculpture (1)

"Today's first item is a plate of golden lotus flower bowls and plates with a colored color of Qianlong Qing Dynasty. The bowl is 14 cm in diameter and 20 cm in diameter. Please look at the large screen. The lotus flower glaze is blue and red, with gold patterns around it. The base price is 200,000 yuan, and the price increase shall not be less than 30,000 yuan each time..." The auctioneer pointed to an ultra-large LCD screen on his right and said that at this time, the clear appearance of the golden lotus flower plate and various materials had appeared on the screen.

With the development of modern technology and the possibility that most items in antiques are fragile, most antique auctions have cancelled physical booths and replaced them with electronic booths. The pictures on the large screen are completely taken in real objects, allowing people to clearly see all the details, so that the auctions can be held in a safe and fast environment.

"Twenty-three thousand, this gentleman bids 230,000, is there any... this lady bids 260,000..." The auctioneer on the stage looked around and nervously quoted the price.

Although after going to the auction, the spectacular scene of over 170 million items, the auctioneer did not relax and his whole nerve was tense to deal with the sudden bid.

Fang You sat in his seat, looking at the lifelike pastel golden lotus plate on the promotional page of the lot on the table, and couldn't help but smile. Pastel porcelain is a famous traditional porcelain in Jingdezhen, which is as famous as blue and white porcelain.

Its main feature is that it is soft in color and rich in the style of Chinese painting. It can be said that it is full of colorful porcelain, showing the quaint atmosphere of Chinese painting.

Pastels were mainly created and burned in the late Kangxi period, and have been popular since then. This porcelain with the flavor of Chinese painting is sometimes more popular than blue and white porcelain.

"This gentleman bid 500,000 yuan. Is there any higher one? 500,000 yuan last time, the deal was completed?" The auctioneer made the final decision and smiled. The competition for the first item was not very fierce. However, the price has doubled.

Compared with jade auctions, this antique auction has less tension. Jade is made into finished products. There is no need to worry about sales. Moreover, good jade materials have always been the target of major jewelry companies rushing to buy. This can be seen from the auctioneer's uninterrupted bidding last time, and the failure of any jadeite to be sold.

They bid directly without considering it, even if they lose some, they still have to grab the jade. As for antiques, most of the people on site are very cautious. Most of the people who come to antique auctions are collecting antiques and waiting for appreciation. They sometimes don’t care about things that have no profit margin.

Most jade is controlled by major jewelry families. When it comes in, it becomes raw materials, and when it comes out, it becomes various jewelry pendants. The success of jade auctions is inevitable, but because the supply of jade raw materials is in short supply, most of the items in antique auctions will fail, which is inevitable.

How could these people take photos of things without profit? Most of the real antique collection enthusiasts enjoy Taobao in major antique cities. Those who come to auctions are for collection appreciation.

Of course. When you encounter something you really like, some antique lovers will do whatever they want.

As time goes by, exquisite antiques keep flashing on the big screen, mostly porcelain, which shows how big the porcelain occupies in the lives and culture of ancient people.

"The No. 100th lot below is a large plate of dragon-wired and tangled lotus with dragon patterns. The dragon patterns are vivid, the patterns are natural and smooth, and the shape is huge. The base price is 2 million yuan, and the price increase shall not be less than 100,000 yuan each time."

"This gentleman bids 2.1 million, is there any higher one, 2.2 million..."

Some people originally thought that Longyou Auction House could not produce any good things to auction, but they did not expect that the first hundred items were rare boutiques, and some of them were even high-quality products that other auction houses had never auctioned.

This made some people wonder. Longyou Auction House is just a newly established company. How could it have such great energy to collect so many fine antiques?

However, some people feel a little bored. If only these things are just for nothing, they think this trip is in vain. What they are looking forward to is extremely rare objects, but although the things are exquisite now, they are not top-notch.

"Lottery No. 120, this is a jade Buddha carved by Mr. Li, the president of Tianhai Jade Association, honorary president of the China Jade Association, and the statue is solemn. According to him, this jade Buddha has been carved for twenty or thirty years and can be regarded as an antique, so I took it for auction and had some pocket money. Everyone must support me. This jade Buddha is made of top Hetian jade, with the signature of Mr. Li carving below. Please see the information on the top of the screen. The price of this jade wareer is 20 years old, and the price increase must not be less than 30,000 yuan each time."

The auctioneer said excitedly that he naturally knew the authority of the jade world like Mr. Li. When he came to the auction house to deliver the goods last time, he was fortunate to talk to the old man for a while. He benefited a lot. The knowledge in Mr. Li's mind was extremely extensive.

Hearing the auctioneer's explanation, everyone looked at the screen. A jade Buddha, which was all white and emitting a soft light, was showing in front of them. The work carved by Mr. Li was from twenty or thirty years ago. This was of great significance. It would be even better if we could take this opportunity to make friends with the old man. Everyone couldn't help but bid wildly.

"This gentleman bids 300,000 yuan, and this lady bids 400,000 yuan, and...450,000 yuan..." The auctioneer on the stage quoted the price at a very fast speed. Although he was nervous, he did not look a little busy. When auctioning jade, he had experienced the shocking scenes. For him, he was familiar with this scene.

Fang You looked at Dong Qilin with a puzzled look on his face, "Hehe, Xiaoyou, I forgot to tell you. When Mr. Li heard that we were going to hold an antique auction, he brought one of the jade he had carved before, saying that he wanted to give us support. Do you think I can reject Mr. Li?" Dong Qilin said with a peaceful smile.

Mr. Li is his greatest teacher and friend besides Mr. Chu. Fang You couldn't help but sigh. Now he used his own fame to add luster to his auction, without any concern about whether he would taint his reputation. This made Fang You feel a little moved.

In the end, Mr. Li's jadeware was sold for 1.2 million yuan. The price of this Hetian jade pendant was not based on its own value, but on its reputation. Sometimes a person's reputation is more valuable than his work itself, which is the celebrity effect.

Some people who were uninformed were speculating about what the boss of this auction house had to do with Mr. Li. Mr. Li was not good at carving. He kept all the items he carved by himself and never took out any of them. This time, he could actually take them out at this small auction for a newly established auction house, which surprised them.

Mr. Li's jade pendant seemed to make the auction atmosphere of a stagnant pool of water a little hot. The next dozens of items were sold at a price higher than the market price. The owners of the items who were watching on the side couldn't help but smile. The newly established Longyou Auction House had extremely low auction fees. They just came to have a chance, but they didn't expect that the high price was sold, which made them trust Longyou Auction House even deeper.

The auction came to an end. With the finale of Li Lao Yu's artifact in the middle, most people were looking forward to what the next two mysterious finale items would be, and whether it would really make them worth the trip.

Some people were disappointed. If this auction was the case, it would be really worth it. Even if they didn't come, they wouldn't regret it for the rest of their lives. Now they only regret how they came to participate in this auction.

The reason why these people refused to leave was that they were waiting for the two final items. They wanted to see what these two things were, which would make them worthwhile and not regret it for life. If these two things were just ordinary, then they would never participate in any auctions at Longyou Auction House.

Shen Gang had a confident smile on his face, and he could defeat his opponent. How could he have the only means of this? These two finale items are absolutely extraordinary.

He smiled and looked at Fang You ahead, muttering to himself silently, Fang You, I have transferred a large amount of funds just for your auction, don't let me spend money.

Only the last two items were left, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little depressed. Everyone looked at the auction table and the big screen ahead with anticipation, wanting to see how precious and rare these last two items were, and could be kept confidential from beginning to end.

The auctioneer on the stage showed an excited expression on his face. Even though he knew all the characteristics of these two things in his heart, his deep excitement could not calm down from the beginning to the present. However, the preciousness of these two things exceeded all the items he had auctioned in the past. Even glass jadeite was not as rare as these two things.

"Everyone, there are only the last two finale items left below. These two items have been covered with mystery since the beginning. Even the moment before the auction began, I got specific information. What are these two items? I can't say now. If I say it, I'm afraid the boss will deduct me money."
