All the invitations sent out have been collected, everyone has arrived, and the auction has begun.

An old man with gray hair combed neatly and big backed head walked to the auction table.

As the old man came up, the people in the audience suddenly became much more eager and the discussion suddenly became louder.

Although the old man is not young, he is very energetic.

He clapped his hands and attracted the attention of everyone in the audience, and then the old man spoke with a smile.

"I believe many of you here know me, so I won't introduce myself. I will host today's auction. You won't have any comments, right?"

Someone immediately spoke out from the audience, "Old He is joking. You come to host this auction, we are reluctant to ask for it, and of course we will not have any opinions."

Along with this person's voice, there were many other people's echoes. It seemed that the old man, known as Mr. He, really had a high reputation.

Zhao Mu was a little confused and turned to Kong Ming and asked, "Is this Mr. He very famous? What is his background? It seems that you all respect him very much."

Kong Ming first glanced at Zhao Mu with a strange look, then showed a clear expression and explained to Zhao Mu:

"It seems that you have never understood the auction industry. As long as you have some knowledge of this industry, you will definitely know the name He Dongxing. Mr. He is the most famous auctioneer in China. Even if you look around the world, you can still be called a name."

Zhao Muyi, he has never understood the auction house industry and he really has no understanding of the things in the circle.

If it weren't for Kong Ming's invitation, he might not have been exposed to this industry yet.

Although I made some preparations and learned something before coming, I knew some basic rules in the industry and I really didn’t know anything about celebrities in the circle.

However, even with Kong Ming's explanation, Zhao Mu still had doubts in his heart.

"I think those who attended this auction are all very valuable people. Even if Mr. He is the ace auctioneer in China, there is no need for everyone to respect him so much."

Kong Ming glanced at Zhao Mu and explained speechlessly: "It seems that you really don't know this industry, and you don't know what Mr. He represents."

"As an auctioneer, you're not just standing on the stage to be responsible for auctioning things, it's just the most basic thing."

"As an auctioneer, you need not only the auction process, but also have enough understanding of the industry. Every auction also needs to understand the people participating in the auction and make different responses to different personalities."

"It's not just that, the auctioneer also needs to have enough knowledge of what he auctions himself to let people know its greatest value."

"The auction has a variety of things. To have a sufficient understanding of these things, it requires deep knowledge accumulation across many fields. This is not something that can be achieved simply by understanding before the auction."

"Do you know, Mr. He is not only an ace auctioneer, but also a top miscellaneous master. He has profound attainments in many aspects such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, ceramics, lacquerware, seal carving, etc., and is also a visiting professor at the University of Hong Kong."

"Just the identity of Mr. He Zaxue Master is worthy of our respect for him. In terms of wealth, Mr. He is only higher than many of us here."

"When it comes to auctions, Mr. He's name is absolutely authoritative in China."

The identities of Mr. He who kept coming out of Kong Ming's mouth made Zhao Mu feel a little stunned. It seemed that Mr. He was still a big boss, and he was a little disrespectful just now.

"Okay, since no one has any objection, the auction will begin now, and now you will ask the first auction item to the stage."

Mr. He directly announced that he had entered the theme, and the auction officially began. The first auction item was already on the display stand by a tall woman wearing a cheongsam.

Release the red silk outside, open the exquisite packaging box, and an antique inkstone appears in front of everyone.

Mr. He introduced: "This is a She inkstone passed down from the Tang Dynasty, also called Shezhou inkstone, one of the four famous inkstones in China. It is completely preserved. There are not many such things in the whole of China. It is a rare treasure, with a low price of 200,000 yuan. It is now on auction."

As soon as Mr. He finished speaking, someone immediately started quoting.

"Three hundred thousand."

"Four hundred thousand."

"Forty-five thousand."

...

There is no need to verify the authenticity of the inkstone. Sotheby's Auction House's signature is placed here, and the auction house will never use fake things to smash its own signature.

What's more, Mr. He was the one who presided over the auction. His words were the greatest guarantee. There would never be auction items in his hands that did not match what he said.

The price rose rapidly, and with the final result of the wooden hammer in Mr. He's hand, the final auction price was set at 2 million.

The transaction price of the low-priced item of 200,000 yuan increased ten times, but the person who successfully captured the item was full of joy, which made Zhao Mu feel shocked after seeing it.

This is a game that only rich people can afford. One inkstone is two million. Who can afford it?

Two million, two million, two million, three million, and three million... The items were successfully captured, and the amazing prices refreshed Zhao Mu's cognition again and again.

Zhao Mu felt that he could no longer drink water, otherwise his stomach would not be able to hold it.

"This is a Chinese painting. Although it is not an antique, the work itself is a rare first-class work. Given the opinions of the creator himself, the creator's reputation was announced after it was filmed. It is now auctioned, with a starting price of 100,000 yuan."

Zhao Mu looked at Kong Ming. This painting was his work when the two competed at the villa party. Now it was time to prove the value of his works.

"Two hundred thousand."

"Three hundred thousand."

"Five hundred thousand."

"Six hundred thousand."

The final transaction price was fixed at 740,000.

However, the actual price of this work should be higher than 740,000 yuan. After all, the creator's name was originally one of the added value of the work, and the auction was the name hidden.

"This is a very interesting work, also a Chinese painting, but it can also be said to be not a Chinese painting. Although this is an ink painting, the style of painting is not the freehand style of Chinese painting, but a completely realistic style."

"I believe everyone can see what this painting is. This is a basketball."

Mr. He looked a little weird. This was the first time he had encountered such a weird work.

"Although the work is a bit weird, the creator's level has reached the top level. There are not many people with this level in China now."

"Okay, given the creator's requirements, the creator's name was also announced after it was taken, and the auction will begin now, with a low price of 100,000 yuan."
