The guests below were restless, and some art professors, as well as experts and scholars who studied cultural relics, could not sit still.
They all raised their hands to signal the host, wanting to go on stage and get up close to the painting.
The host did not refuse, Lin Jue explained to the person in charge of the organizer at the beginning, he took out the painting and released the news to the outside world, just to attract, really capable experts.
If the painting can be identified on the spot, this painting is genuine, and the auction site will definitely be able to heat it up to a very high price.
Selling the lot at a high price allows the auction house to charge a high handling fee, which is undoubtedly advantageous for them.
It is impossible for them to refuse.
However, in order to avoid mixing among the VIPs, the host specially called four or five strong security guards to guard within a meter of the painting.
Outsiders can only stand one meter away to study it, and cannot directly use their hands to touch it to avoid damage.
More than twenty experts from all walks of life gathered around the eighty-seven immortal scrolls to study, and everyone nodded and sighed in admiration, frowning and flipping through their notebooks.
"Up close, every detail on this painting is exactly the same as the copy that Xu Lao copied back then. The oxidation marks on the material do not look like they were forged using chemical agents..."
"The real work has been lost for many years, who did it fall into?" And judging by the degree of preservation, this person should also cherish this painting very much.
"Wu Daozi's painting is now alive, this is a national treasure-level treasure!" In any case, you have to pay to photograph it and send it to the museum when the time comes! Several
experts exchanged the results with each other and basically confirmed that this painting, it is genuine.
Seeing this, the host held up the microphone and asked: "Dear experts and scholars, it has been half an hour to appraise. The VIPs in the audience all wondered, is this painting real? On behalf of the experts, Professor Liu will announce the answer. "
Professor Liu Yibai, he is the most authoritative expert in cultural relics identification in China, and he is also the director of a museum.
It is obviously the most appropriate for him to announce the results to the public.
In addition to the VIPs who came to participate in the auction, there were also a large number of journalists and friends, flashing shutters, clicking, flashing non-stop.
Professor Liu took the microphone and solemnly announced, "According to the appraisal results we had just had, this eighty-seven immortal scroll is indeed a genuine work. However, the specific scientific identification results must be sent to the laboratory for sampling and carbon 14 measurement before everyone can be told. There
was an uproar in the audience, and some reporters raised their hands to ask questions.
"Professor Liu, your answer is very vague. While saying that it is a genuine work, it is said that it is necessary to wait for the results of scientific identification? Whether this painting is real or not, can you give us a letter on the spot!
"That's right, not an eighty percent possibility, we have to listen to a 100 percent, affirmative answer!"
A group of journalists are coaxing, and many rich collectors are also wondering, is this thing genuine?
After all, only genuine products have the meaning of spending a lot of money and buying them.
Professor Liu calmly said seriously: "Since you want me to give a completely positive answer." Then I tell you, in my personal judgment, I can be 100% sure that this is the real thing!
"It's genuine, my goodness!"
"Elder Liu said so, that's absolutely true!"
"This auction will definitely be competitive, and I can't help but look forward to how much money it will get."
The experts all exited, and the host immediately began the auction, "Everyone! The finale lot of this auction, eighty-seven fairy rolls, starting price, five million! "
Five million as a starting price, the price is very high.
Originally, the organizer discussed with Lin Jue to reduce the starting price, after all, the organizer could not be sure, whether this painting was genuine?
If it is a fake, it is too expensive to spend 10,000 yuan to buy it.
But now it's different, Professor Liu Yibai is sure that it is genuine, and the starting price of five million looks like drizzle.
Sure enough, the VIPs below couldn't wait, and as soon as the host shouted to start, someone rushed to raise the price every few seconds, and couldn't stop at all.
In less than a few moments, the price was topped to 77 million.
Those rich people shouted the price, it was like death, until it went up to 99 million, and some people continued to shout.
The host's face turned red with excitement, you know, since the opening of their auction house, they have never sold a lot with a price of hundreds of millions.
This is definitely a record-breaking.
"
Ninety-nine and a half million!"
"Ninety-nine million eight million!"
"One hundred and eleven million!"
After the price of hundreds of millions, the speed of VIPs holding cards has dropped a lot.
The sky-high price of 100 million has dissuaded most of the rich people, but they can't stop the people who really want to get this lot.
In the seat of the audience, there was an old man with unassuming appearance and gray hair.
He has been silent since the auction was carried out until now, and he has not raised a single card, but at this time, he squeezed the cards in his hand and decisively moved upward.
A number was shouted that no one expected.
"I give out 600 million."
His voice was steady, he could hardly hear the mood swings, and the number he shouted surprised countless people at the scene.
actually directly shouted 600 million!
People 500,000, 500,000 to the top, he added nearly 500 million in one breath, what kind of mysterious rich boss is this old man?
Everyone is speculating about his identity, the price has been increased to 600 million, and no one dares to increase the price anymore.
The old man suddenly spoke and put forward a condition, "I can add another hundred million, but I ask to meet with the collector who provided this painting." The
host's expression was embarrassed, when Lin Jue handed over the painting to their auction house, he specially told them not to reveal his true identity.
Auction houses also have an obligation to help hide the identity of sellers.
If Lin Jue did not agree to meet with this old man, he did not have the right to provide Lin Jue's information to the other party.
Just as the host was about to refuse, a breathy voice suddenly came from the background.
"I agreed to meet him. It's just that he can't bring outsiders, and he is only allowed to come to the appointment alone. When the time comes, I will tell you the time and place of the meeting. The
old man smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'm looking forward to it." This painting, I bought it for 700 million, and I should make friends with you. I will donate this painting to the National Museum for preservation. "
A rare and lively auction came to an end.
The news that the mysterious old man spent a huge amount of 700 million to buy the painting soon spread throughout the country.
Lin Juemei received 700 million yuan, and at the same time made an appointment with him to meet the place....
