Chapter 274 Forty Thousand for Fifteen Million Is Okay
A big guy who spent a total of 1.2 billion on the hobby of collecting is now being led by Yang Chen's nose, which is quite tragic to think about.
But Liu apologized and couldn't help it. He knew it was a trap, so he still had to jump into it.
If he didn't jump, he would lose real money in units of billions.
Liu apologized: "Then I will chat with President Yang to test his psychological price."
Yang Chen: "Haha...Okay, Mr. Liu will do it himself."
Liu apologized with a bitter look on his face, and went to find Yang Zi.
Yang Chen and the three sat down, waiting for the auction to start.
At half past seven, the auction officially started.
The first lot is a broken jade Ruyi.
According to the auctioneer, this jade Ruyi belonged to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Once Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma quarreled over some political affairs.
Zhu Yuanzhang was tickling with Yu Ruyi, and in a fit of anger, he pointed at Empress Ma with Yu Ruyi, warning her that the harem was not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the state.
Empress Ma was aggrieved and took Yu Ruyi over and broke it.
This is the jade Ruyi that Queen Ma broke.
Yang Chen really admires these people, Nima can think of it.
Anyway, there are experts' certification documents and institutional identification certificates, not to mention that it is the jade Ruyi used by Zhu Yuanzhang, that is, the jade Ruyi used by Ying Zheng.
I remember that a descendant of a painter took the authentic work to identify it, and experts said that the painting was fake.
The person identified her and said she was the painter's granddaughter.
This painting is the painting of grandfather that their family has always treasured, and it cannot be fake.
But what did the expert say?
Experts say that the authenticity of the painting is not the author's final decision, but their appraisal experts.
They say it's true, and it's true.
They say it's fake, then it's fake.
Anyone who plays in this industry knows that as long as there is an expert's appraisal certificate, even if it is fake, it can be taken seriously.
Therefore, the auctioneer said that the broken jade Ruyi belonged to Zhu Yuanzhang, and was broken by Queen Ma, then it was Zhu Yuanzhang's jade Ruyi that was broken by Queen Ma.
After the auctioneer's introduction, he quoted a starting price of 300,000.
Unless there is a clear amount for each bid, the default is to increase the price by 10,000.
Start bidding.
I don't know if it was the childcare arranged by the auction house, but there are so many people participating in the bidding.
After a few bites, the price climbed to $1 million.
Bai Zihua asked in a low voice, "Master, is this really Zhu Yuanzhang's thing?"
Yang Chen: "Looking at the age, it is indeed something from the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. It is impossible to determine whether it belongs to Zhu Yuanzhang. Unless there is a special description on the jade Ruyi. For example, the jade ring finger I bought has Emperor Kangxi's on the inside. Name. Is there any written proof about Zhu Yuanzhang on this Yu Ruyi? It's too far away to see."
Mu Zihan: "Even if it's Zhu Yuanzhang's Yu Ruyi, it's already broken. What are these people doing?"
Yang Chen: "The thing itself is not worth much, it is mainly related to Zhu Yuanzhang. For example, if you can find a broken bowl that Ying Zheng used, it can be worth 1.8 million. But if you simply find one Broken bowls from the Qin Dynasty are not worth much. Except for the needs of archaeological and historical research, no collectors are willing to ask for them. The main reason is that people raise the value of things.”
Mu Zihan nodded and understood what Yang Chen meant.
Soon, the price reached 1.5 million, and it was not photographed by the well-known collector Ma.
Bai Zihua whispered, "To buy a broken jade Ruyi for 1.5 million yuan, the collector's idea is really incomprehensible. If he wants to change hands in the future, will anyone be willing to pay such a high price?"
Yang Chen: "If an ordinary collector bought it, it would probably lose money. But Ma Duwei and the others are different. They are all top collectors and have a certain reputation bonus. And they are all experts in the industry. It’s not a problem to just operate it and double it. These people can really be fake, and fake can be real, so don’t underestimate them.”
Mu Zihan: "Is this industry so dark?"
Yang Chen: "It's beyond your imagination.
"
Bai Zihua: "Then should we replace all the money we make with antiques? I want to preserve its value, and maybe we can make a lot of money."
Yang Chen: "No. Let's buy gold. Gold is hard currency. No matter what time of year, gold is valuable. Antiques can be hyped up in prosperous times, but they are worthless in troubled times. And we are not experts, we spend a lot of money to buy them. It's up to them to decide whether the antiques are real or not, and I can't accept this."
Bai Zihua and Mu Zihan nodded.
While the three of them were talking, the second lot was already on the market.
It was Yang Chen's "Beginners Collection".
Auctioneer: "The next lot is amazing. It is the work of Qian Qianyi, a great writer in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Everyone knows that Qian Qianyi is a very controversial person. He was an official of the Ming Dynasty and later surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. He became an official, and finally subsidized Zheng Chenggong and others to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Qianlong felt that there was something wrong with his character and his works should not be seen by the world, so he ordered his works to be destroyed. There is God's will. This "Beginners Collection" has been handed down, and it was picked out from Panjiayuan by a very discerning collector. I don't need to say the collection value of this book, everyone who is connoisseurs understands it. This book has already been After more than 30 expert appraisals, it is indeed genuine. The appraisal certificate is for everyone to see."
The identification certificate was projected on the big screen immediately.
More than 30 are jointly identified by experts in the industry. Regardless of whether it is true or false, with this identification certificate, it is genuine.
Auctioneer: "Such a good thing can be said to be invaluable. The starting price is 3 million, and each bid will increase by 100,000 unless otherwise specified. Start bidding now."
"3.5 million!"
"4000000!"
"5000000!"
"6000000!"
...
Seeing everyone actively bidding, Yang Chen felt very comfortable.
The book is worth about $6 million.
After only a few bids, the price has already reached this number, and it must be a big profit.
Soon the price came to 8 million.
Everyone else stopped bidding.
But there are two people who are still increasing the price from 100,000 to 100,000.
One is Li Jingchun, the CEO of Jinxia Real Estate Company.
One is Yang Tianlin, chairman of Jinling Tianbai Group.
These two bosses both like to collect ancient books, that's why they don't allow an inch of land.
Yang Tianlin: "8.4 million!"
Li Jingchun: "8.5 million!"
Yang Tianlin: "8.8 million!"
Li Jingchun: "9 million!"
Yang Tianlin laughed and said, "Dong Li, it's almost done, let me. You know I like these things very much."
Li Jingchun also laughed and said: "Yang Dong, you are not embarrassing me. Everyone in the circle knows that I like to collect ancient books, so you can raise your hand. I will invite you to drink another day, and Maotai is not limited. How about it?"
Yang Tianlin: "I quit drinking a long time ago, you should keep drinking by yourself. 12 million!"
"Oh……"
The people at the scene let out an exclamation.
The starting price was 3 million, and now it has reached 12 million, four times that. Will Li Jingchun still increase the price?
Li Jingchun was silent for a few seconds, gritted his teeth, and said, "15 million! I also quit drinking, and I will take this book even if I save the money to buy Maotai!"
"Wow……"
The crowd exclaimed again.
Antiques are really killing people.
When you meet the right person, the price at the auction can scare people to death.
It's just a book, and the bid is 15 million, which is really scary.
Yang Chen had a smile on his face, watching them compete.
Yang Tianlin was a little embarrassed.
The whole audience was looking at him.
If he doesn't make an offer now, he will be very shameless, as if he is not as rich as Li Jingchun.
But if the bids continued, the book would be less attractive.
Books estimated at five or six million have already sold for 15 million.
It would be unwise to continue to add more.
After deliberation, Yang Tianlin smiled helplessly, gave Li Jingchun a thumbs up, and did not bid any more.
Auctioneer: "15 million once! 15 million twice! 15 million three times! The deal! Congratulations to Li Dong for winning this "Beginners Collection"."
They're all insiders, and they all know each other.
Everyone quickly congratulates Li Jingchun.
Li Jingchun smiled and nodded to everyone to express his gratitude.
But of course the happiest one was Yang Chen.
He bought it for 40,000 yuan, and now it has become 15 million.
This return on investment ratio is really awesome.
Although 15 million is not a lot of money for Yang Chen.
But the feeling of making 15 million with 40,000 is really wonderful.
Bai Zihua said in a low voice, "Congratulations, Master, this is a big profit."
Mu Zihan: "I hope the jade wrench and the chicken pot can also make a lot of money."
Yang Chen: "I'm sorry for the chicken pot cup, Liu, he will definitely give me 300 million."
Bai Zihua: "It's still the master who is brilliant. He still has to jump when digging a trap in front of him."
Mu Zihan: "What if he thinks it's more difficult to compete with Yang Zi and gives up?"
