Golden Pupil

Chapter 1054 Art is Priceless

"Thank you one by one by one", Zhuang Rui picked up the wine glass in his hand, motioned to Little Superman from afar, and expressed his gratitude with his mouth. Zhuang Rui knew in his heart that in terms of financial resources, he really could not compete with the Li Group, which had assets of tens of billions of dollars.

Of course, it's one thing to have more money. Whether you want to buy these things that can't be eaten and drunk or not is another matter. Little Superman's intention is just to help his father attend this charity auction and buy an item as an explanation. At present, when he sees Zhuang Rui's resolute attitude, he will naturally not That will only make outsiders see jokes.

"Forty thousand..." After a while of silence in the venue, Mao Watabe, sitting in the other corner, shouted another price, which made the whole auction venue a little **.

You should know that it is not uncommon to auction tens of millions of dollars in auctions held on such occasions, but most of the high-priced items sold in the past were foreign artists, such as the works of Picasso, Van Gogh, or those jewelry of high value.

But an ancient book from [China] can be sold for more than 20 million yuan, which has never happened in private charity auctions.

"Honey, what's the use of those books? Why is it so expensive?" "Oh, God knows why? All I know is that I won't buy it..." "Are all Orientals crazy? How many books cost more than 20 million?" "Maybe that's the cultural relic of their country, but I prefer Picasso's works..."

Around Zhuang Rui, there are constant such dialogues. Those well-dressed concubines are beautifully dressed gentlemen and ladies. They don't understand the behavior of Zhuang Rui and Watanabe Zhenyang. In their opinion, the price of oriental art should not be so expensive.

Zhuang Rui heard that he couldn't laugh or cry. The value of antiques is not only reflected in the market. Many antiques with words are more important for the study of history. It can really reflect the social form of a certain period, which is not available in many valuable antiques.

Just like the bronzes of the country, the price of bronzes with inscriptions is dozens or even hundreds of times that without inscriptions. The reason is that on those simple inscriptions, historians can interpret many meanings from them to verify the historical changes of that era.

"Mr. Mayo Watanabe offered 21 million yuan. It seems that this ancient book from the East is already comparable to the precious works of art in the West..." At this moment, the auctioneer William's face was full of excitement. It's cool to host this high-end auction." There is no need for him to bother to recommend it. The price of the goods sold is also much higher than the auctions he hosted in the past.

The only thing that makes William feel a little sorry is that the items auctioned on this occasion can't show his auction skills at all.

Zhuang Rui raised his right hand and said with a blank face, "22 million beautiful ghosts..."

Although this price has far exceeded Zhuang Rui's valuation, today [day] I am willing to pay such a high price in exchange for the national treasure-level cultural relics of the [China] country, and Zhuang Rui has no reason to give in. By the way, for the more than 700 million dollars that Zhuang Rui has just entered, these tens of millions will not hurt Move the bones.

"25 million dollars, Mr. Zhuang, I really like the culture of your country. These six "Yongle Ceremony" should be placed together with other "Yongle Ceremony". I hope you can..." Mao Watanabe felt Zhuang Rui's determination and directly raised the price. It's as high as 25 million US dollars, but this is already the highest psychological price he can offer. After all, the actual price of Yongle Grand Ceremony is far lower than the current opening price.

Another point is that although Mao Watanabe is a senior management of Sony and also owns a lot of shares of Sony, everyone knows that generally shareholders hold the company's shares. In fact, those are all book numbers. Before the shares are sold and transferred, they may not be Everyone is a billionaire.

Just like Bill Gates, the world's richest man, he often sells his Microsoft shares to get cash for himself, and Mao Watanabe is just like this. His billions worth are on the company's stocks, and the cash he can take out now is only tens of millions of dollars.

"Mr. Mao Watanabe, although art knows no borders, I also appreciate your understanding and pursuit of [China] cultural relics, but I... It is the most meaningful thing to let these cultural relics return to their birthplace. I will pay 30 million US dollars!"

Zhuang Rui can feel that Watanabe Zhenyang is not like an ordinary greedy [day]. He just wants to plunder cultural relics from other countries with money. Watanabe Zhenyang should really like these "Yongle Canons". His sincere attitude has won Zhuang Rui's respect.

Of course, respect is one thing. It is absolutely impossible for Zhuang Rui to give up these Yongle Canons. Even if possible, Zhuang Rui wants to buy all the Yongle Canons collected by the Watanabe Zhenyang family, in Zhuang Rui's words! I'm not short of money now.

"Mr. Zhuang, maybe you are right. Please go to [Sun] when you have time in the future. Be sure to visit my home. I will take out the remnants of the "Yongle Canon" collected by the family to communicate with you..."

After hearing Zhuang Rui's quotation, Zhenyang Watanabe showed a trace of hesitation on his face. He really didn't expect that the Chinese people had been so rich that they could be popular in the international art market. Although he loved these "Yongle Canons" very much, it was almost the same as Picasso. Pin Qiping's price finally made Mao Watanabe shake his head and give up the bidding.

"Thank you. I will definitely go if I have a chance..."

Zhuang Rui nodded. He would not be hostile to the [day] person who really likes [China] Chinese art, but [day] he will not go again. The last time he was in the [day] director's disturbance was not seamless. Presumably [day] some people did not welcome Zhuang Rui to go.

"Mr. William, should you..."

After Zhuang Rui shouted the price of $30 million, William on the stage was a little sluggish. He witnessed countless high-end auctions. Last month, he even hosted an auction of Picasso's works and sold a high price of $62 million.

Although the price of that auction was far higher than Zhuang Rui's bid today, as the most famous auctioneer in the world, William knew in his heart that Picasso's works were worth so much money, and the real price of these ancient books was more than 10 million yuan. Yuan, now it is equivalent to a price that is three times higher than its own value.

"Uh... Mr. Zhuang from [China] has offered 30 million US dollars. Ladies and gentlemen, is there any offer?"

After William routinely asked a question, he knocked down the auction mallet in his hand heavily and pointed to Zhuang Rui and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Zhuang, you have received these precious books collected by Mr. Bonadette, and also thank Mr. Zhuang for his contributions to charity!" Today's charity auction has been going on until now. Zhuang Rui is undoubtedly the most popular person. Whether it is the ruby at the beginning or these six Yongle Canons, they are the highest price sold today, which makes many super-rich people around the world begin to face Zhuang Rui, a young man.

In today's society, in addition to some British antiques who still adhere to the aristocratic tradition, they believe that except for the aristocracy worthy of respect, others are insignificant. However, in the mainstream society, evaluating a person's success pays more attention to the wealth and influence of that person himself.

Just like people like Bill Gates or Bonadette, if they go to some small countries, their status is on an equal footing with the leaders of that country. This is the privilege given by their wealth. Of course, this privilege must be recognized by some circles before it can be implemented.

"How many books have been photographed for 30 million US dollars. Is the national art so valuable?"

"I think so. Maybe a few calligraphy and paintings from [Zhong] China should be hung in my castle..." After the dust of these "Yongle Ceremony" was settled, there were all kinds of discussions in the venue. To Zhuang Rui's surprise, after this charity auction, at some international auctions, from 〖 The price of art in the country has soared, and many people who did not pay much attention to the collection of [Zhong] Chinese antiques have taken action one after another, forming a [Zhong] national style.

"Zhuang, thank you for your generous support..."

Bonadette walked to Zhuang Rui with a smile and raised the wine glass in his hand to Zhuang Rui. As the owner of today's charity auction, if the things were not auctioned or the price was very low, Bonadette would certainly be ugly. Zhuang Rui's behavior undoubtedly made his face increase greatly.

"Mr. Bonadette, this is what it should be. You can take out such a precious cultural relic for charity activities. I think... The person who should be thanked is you..." Zhuang Rui touched the wine glass with Bonadette very friendlyly. Today, the appearance of these "Yongle Ceremony" is indeed a little beyond Zhuang Rui's expectation These isolated ancient books scattered around the world can't be bought with money, and they still need opportunities.

"Ha ha, Zhuang, you're welcome. When I was young, I didn't have the courage like you. Well, there is another thing below, and I think you will be very interested..." With Bonadette's age and experience, he would not have been praised and happy for a few words, but Zhuang Rui's words still made him very Happy.

Zhuang Rui was stunned when he heard the words, and then smiled and said, "Oh? Is it also a work of art from [China]? Mr. Bonanit, I think... I'm very necessary to visit your collection room...", PS: The environment of the hospital really can't code words. The old man on the left and the old lady on the right can't breathe oxygen at all. It can't be written at all. It should also be updated today. It's depressing!
