Feng walked to Lin Muyu and Liu Yue, and he smiled and said, "The two beauties are prone to causing traffic jams at the door."

Lin Muyu said, "Tang Feng, you are here just in time. We just wanted to find you."

Liu Yue said, "It's cold outside, let's talk about it later when we go in."

The four of them entered the hall of Zhuji Auction House together. Liu Yue took the bidding sign from the front desk staff and handed it to Tang Feng. The bidding sign number was 189. The bidding sign number was arranged naturally in the order of the order of the auction deposit. Tang Feng was one of the last buyers to pay the auction deposit. Therefore, his number was very low. It is not difficult to see from his number that there would be at least 150 buyers participating in the auction, because all the numbers were avoided.

Tang Feng looked at the bidding sign in his hand, and he was afraid he would not have the chance to lift it tonight.

The auction is about to begin, and I walked into the auction hall and sat in the in-field auction table. After sitting down, Tang Feng found a serious problem and sat between Lin Muyu and Liu Yue. Compared to Tang Feng's guilty act, Liu Yue's performance is much more natural. She handed the folder in her hand to Tang Feng and said, "The important customers are all on it, you can see it yourself."

Zhuji Auction House has complete customer information, family background of important customers, which collections they own, what types of antiques they like, what kind of items they have participated in, and the bidding status is complete. Tang Feng asked Liu Yue: "If you give me these, your mother won't blame you, right?"

Liu Yue smiled and said, "These are all my mother asked me to give you. Don't forget that you are also our big customer. Besides, these are not secrets and can be found online."

"That's good, thank you." After Tang Feng finished speaking, he began to look through the information and the auction house would certainly not reveal all the customer information. Their information was provided based on the lot. The theme of the first page was the market estimate of Zhang Daqian's antique landscape painting "Autumn Landscape Picture" and the analysis of potential bidding customers.

The buyers listed as the number one bidder by the seller are not individuals but enterprises. This is the Zhang Daqian Memorial Hall in Neijiang, Sichuan. Neijiang is Zhang Daqian's hometown. Tang Feng did not have the determination to participate in the bidding of the Zhang Daqian Memorial Hall, and he was only worried about their economic strength. The No. 2 and 3 bidding were Dong Minquan, Ren Wangzu, both the Dong family and the Ren family had the original works of Zhang Daqian. The Dong family owned three paintings and the Ren family had two paintings. For large collectors of this level, of course, the more top artworks, the better. While constantly increasing the depth of the collection, they will spare no effort to expand the breadth of the collection. In contrast to the Zhang Daqian Memorial Hall, the key to their determination to bid.

After reading these, Tang Feng felt more or less hope ignited in his heart. If Dong Minquan and Ren Wangzu could create a little spark, this "Autumn Landscape Picture" would definitely be sold at a high price. His luck in these days is getting worse and worse. It is time to bottom out and rebound.

Tang Feng is in the information and auctions on the other side. The quality of the first few calligraphy and painting works can only be said to be cold in the market. Big customers are not interested and actively withdraw from the competition. Small customers are not competitive. After several rounds of bidding at the lowest rate, they are sold out in a hurry.

Finally, Fengdi "Autumn Landscape Picture" appeared. There is no need to exaggerate the painting too much. After the auctioneer briefly introduced it, he said: "The No. 7 lot is imitated by Shitao's landscape painting "Autumn Landscape Picture". Zhuji Auction House guarantees the old and authenticity with the painting. The painting is accompanied by a land appraisal certificate issued by the national authoritative calligraphy and painting art appraisal unit. The base price is RMB 10,000. There is no minimum increase. Start now!"

It should be said that the price positioning of this painting is relatively low. Tang Feng predicts that the final transaction price of this painting should be above 20 million. This is not a random prediction. Instead, it is a judgment based on the market conditions. The market conditions of the top domestic calligraphy and painting works have always remained high. In 20C5, at the Spring Auction of China Trade Shengjiadi. Ren Bonian's "Hua Zhu Sanduo Tu" was as high as 10,000. In the same year, at the autumn auction of Jiuge calligraphy and painting art in Beijing, Wu Guanzhong's 1988 painting "Parrot Paradise" sold for more than 3 million yuan.

Zhuji Auction House operates in this way simply to attract more buyers to participate in competition. With more athletes, the competition will be fierce. If you play well on the spot, it is not ruled out that it may appear in a dark horse. As the No. 2 item in this auction venue, everyone on site knows that this painting will definitely go through a fierce competition. But no one of them thought that the first bid for this painting pushed the entire auction atmosphere to the point.

Before the auctioneer finished speaking, a clear quotation of 15 million was heard from the auction table!

The first offer increased the reserve price by one third, and a whispering buzzing sound immediately came from the crowd. The competition was more intense than expected. Chen Yan bent over and waved his fist at Tang Feng. He said, "How is it? I guess right?"

Tang Feng looked at Ren Wangzu and said to Chen Yan: "I hope someone will come forward to take the initiative."

The auctioneer said in his professional voice: The number buyer paid 15 million for the first time, and there was no more than 5 million once."

It started counting down so quickly, Tang Feng was inevitably a little worried. He turned to Liu Yue and asked, "Why didn't you see Dong Minquan?"

"Don't worry, he is willing to do such an important painting and calligraphy work.

You will miss it." Liu Yue said: "But Mr. Dong is a Hong Kong occasion after all, and he will definitely entrust others to bid."

At this time, a middle-aged man next to Ren Wangzu raised the C58 bidding sign in his hand, which read 16 million.

There was finally a response here, and the ball was kicked back: the number buyer, everyone's eyes immediately turned to their side, and the number buyer also raised the bidding sign in his hand, which was 17 million.

Before the auctioneer could sing the price, Ren Wangzu raised the bid again, 18 million; the buyer of C22 was not outdone and immediately returned 10,000 yuan. The transaction price exceeded Tang Feng's estimate and was a foregone conclusion.

The number buyers frequently reported, but the number buyers were as stable as Mount Tai. They immediately added 1.0 million. The competition seemed fierce, but the prospects were not optimistic. The direct report of the Zhang Daqian Memorial Hall was a manifestation of lack of confidence. If no other buyers participated in the competition, there was not much room for the bottom price to rise.

Sure enough, when Ren Wangzubian reported 21 million, the buyer of C22 gave up the competition. This is a company that relies on donations and ticket revenue, and 20 million is their upper limit.

The auctioneer's death-seeking talisman sounded again like 1.0 million yuan and 1.0 million yuan. Tang Feng felt helpless. The final transaction price of this painting was 2.11 million yuan. He was not qualified to participate in the competition for Su Dongpo's manuscripts, and even the reserve price was not enough.

"The buyer of the oh-seat participated in the competition. They quoted 25 million, 25 million, and is there anything higher than 25 million!" Good news came from the auctioneer's mouth. Tang Feng knew that Dong Minquan's client had appeared, and he was the only one.

Someone suddenly came out, but Ren Wangzu still added another 10,000 yuan.

At the same time, the commissioning seat shouted a higher offer, 29 million! It is worthy of Dong Minquan, the offer is ruthless. They have already seen the clues from Ren Wangzu's attitude towards quotation and headed straight to the opponent's psychological price. Ren Wangzu also refused to give in, and they quickly raised ten thousand yuan.

The buyers No. 1 were prepared, and they immediately raised the reserve price to 330,000. Such a vicious offer made the people on Ren Wangzu unable to sit still. They began to whisper, and it was obvious that tens of thousands exceeded their psychological price. As buyers who were determined to win, they had to consider another factor. Whether the auction house would raise their own value is not a problem, but the problem is that it cannot be wasted. Ren Wangzu's entourage handed the mobile phone to Ren Wangzu's ear Wangzu immediately smiled after hearing the sound. He then made a continued gesture to the middle-aged man around him, and then the middle-aged man raised the bidding sign for 33.1 million.

Chen Yan asked Tang Feng: "Do you think he will call Dong Minquan?"

Tang Feng let out a long sigh. He was really worried that the No. 1 buyer was a child care provider in Zhuji Auction House. If Ren Wangzu no longer continued to quote, Zhuji Auction House would be miserable. However, the facts proved that the No. 1 buyer was not a child care provider, but a bidding with the same strength as Ren Wangzu. Moreover, Ren Wangzu also knew this person. Tang Feng said: "It is very likely that people of this level cannot not know him." From this, it can be seen that Dong Minquan's status seems to be a little higher than Ren Wangzu. He did not consider his opponents, but only considered his own quotation.

"That's great!" Chen Yan said happily: "This painting will definitely be sold at a high price."

Tang Feng shook his head and said, "You are wrong, the competition is about to end." Tang Feng guessed that the phone call just now will not only determine the transaction price of the item, but also the transaction price of Su Dongpo's manuscript, and everyone will make concessions.

The phone number on Ren Wangzu was hung up shortly after, and the buyer C011 immediately received the call. While answering the phone, he nodded. After hanging up the phone, he waved to Ren Wangzu and said, "331.66 million!"

Ren Wangzu nodded to the man, they gave up the competition, and in the end, the painting was sold for 331.66 million, plus Tang Feng's own 10,000, Tang Feng finally got the opportunity to hold the sign, but the hope was still slim. Dong Minquan may not participate in the competition for Su Dongpo's manuscript, but Ren Wangzu, the competitor, was even more terrifying.

After an hour, Su Dongpo's manuscript officially appeared. The auctioneer introduced it as usual. Finally, he said: "The No. 15th lot, the manuscript of Song Sushi's "Nian Nu Jiaobi Nostalgia" has no appraisal certificate, no guarantee of authenticity, and the lowest price is 10,000 yuan. It starts now." The expert group of the Ministry of Culture failed to reach a consensus in the end, otherwise there would be an appraisal certificate. I would rather not do it than make mistakes. Social philosophy.

Soon, the quotation sound came. When the auctioneer was busy singing the price, Tang Feng raised the quotation label in his hand, which read: 160,000!

Tang Feng couldn't control that much, so he directly quoted the highest price he could afford. Just this hammer transaction, if it's OK, if it doesn't work, it's over. Lin Muyu gently held Tang Feng's hand and asked him, "Will you be sad if the competition fails?"

Tang Feng laughed and said, "What's so sad about this? My mentality has always been very positive."
