The Richest Man Yang Fei - Chapter 1891
Chapter 1889 Rich
At that time, the country had extremely strict foreign exchange controls, and Liang Chao’s team could not carry too much foreign exchange abroad.
Moreover, they are conservative in the evaluation of Sarah Fangli’s bidding.
3 million US dollars, placed in the country in 2001, is indeed an astronomical figure.
However, this is an auction for global antique collectors and the world’s top richest people.
Safang Lei was once again attracted by many collectors. With their help, the price went up and the price went up to 3 million US dollars. He was quickly thrown into the dust, and he couldn’t even see the shadow.
The bid quickly exceeded $4 million!
Before, there were people who paid attention to Liang Chao from time to time, hoping that he would be able to burst high prices again, but he had been silent for so long and no one paid any attention to him.
Yang Fei still sits firmly in the middle of the army and does not make an offer.
Others are just like a rainbow, and now they are holding cards, and it’s just one more person participating in the bidding.
The price soon exceeded 5 million U.S. dollars!
This price is more than twice the starting price!
There is no doubt that Safang Lei has become a hot item in this auction!
Even the Nitta family family did not expect this collection to be auctioned for such a high price!
Fu Heng said: “The Chinese who bid fiercely is from the treasure island of our country. He is a very famous collector.”
Yang Fei said, “Where is the other European and American?”
Fu Heng said: “He is a collector in Europe, an invisible rich man. Some people say that he is wealthy and has one of the most luxurious castle villas in Europe. Inside, it is heavily organized and heavily guarded. It houses rare antiques from all over the world. But he is very low-key.”
Yang Fei said, “Really? If you have a chance, you must visit his home. Since he has so many treasures, why not open a private museum?”
Fu Heng smiled and said, “They are low-key.”
Yang Fei touched his nose and smiled: “Old Fu, you mean I’m high-profile, right?”
Fu Heng said: “In fact, whether it is high-key or low-key, it’s just that everyone has a different attitude toward life.”
Yang Fei said, “I don’t know how many of the collections in the collector’s house are lost from our country!”
Fu Heng sighed: “I went to see it once, and most of his collection was lost from our country.”
Yang Fei frowned slightly.
Fu Heng said: “Also, his ancestor was a commander of the Eight-Nation Alliance. You can imagine.”
Yang Fei: “…”
Fu Heng said: “There is a gambler in Europe. In addition to gambling, he drinks alcohol every day. In the end, he was so poor that he could not afford to drink alcohol. He planned to sell the house left by his ancestors. When he was tidying the attic, he suddenly found Dozens of old big boxes were filled with thick dust. He opened it and saw that it was amazing. It was full of antiques from ancient eastern civilizations! It turned out that the ancestor of this guy, who was also a member of the Eight-Power Allied Forces, grabbed it. A ship of treasures returned to China, but there was no time to explain the funeral, and he died. The posterity did not know about this matter, and he had spent decades guarding billions of antiques.”
Yang Fei said, “This is a bit similar to the hiding of treasures from the Luo Yuxi family’s ancestor.”
Fu Heng said: “Many times, reality is more exciting than story, and it is also more bizarre and tortuous.”
Yang Fei said, “Old Fu, do you think there is any way to get these lost antiques back?”
Fu Heng shook his head slightly: “It’s impossible, unless the third world war is launched, you have to win the victory like Genghis Khan did!”
Yang Fei smiled and thought about it, thinking a lot for a while.
When he came back to his senses, the bid had already exceeded the $6 million mark!
The atmosphere at the auction site was ignited by the magic of money.
The price of bronzes in auction history has not been too high.
In normal auction prices, a bronze ware from the Warring States Period can only be sold for tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of US dollars, which is about one or two million yuan.
Although Safang Lei is a heavy vessel, it is also a bronze vessel, so the expert’s estimate of him is not high.
It is for this reason that Liang Chao’s team only prepared US$3 million, thinking it would be stable.
Where did I think that this year’s auction, this Sunfang Lei turned out to be a dark horse!
The value of antiques in the collectors’ circle is estimated on the basis of their rarity, on the basis of their artistic value, and on the age, duration and completeness of their existence.
Safang Lei only has a body, and it is a bronze ware that is not very popular in the collectors circle. This year, so many people participated in the auction, and the price has been rising all the way, which indeed exceeded many people’s expectations.
Yang Fei also had some doubts.
Although he knows that Sarfang Lei will definitely bid a high price today, but even if he arrives at the scene, he still doesn’t understand why the European collector raises Sarfang Lei so much?
He raised this question to Fu Heng and Wang Yuanzhi, hoping to hear their opinions.
Wang Yuanzhi sneered: “The antique industry is similar to playing stocks. This year we will be speculating on this and next year. I guess some people want to speculate on bronzes.”
Fu Heng also agrees with Wang Yuanzhi’s analysis: “Many speculators in the world change the law every year to hype a certain type of antiques. If you want to hype up this type of antiques, you must build momentum. This is Christie’s global auction and also antiques. The largest auction in the world, creating momentum here is the most beneficial, and it can also cause the most global sensation.”
Wang Yuanzhi said: “It is conceivable that after today, the price of bronzes will definitely skyrocket!”
Yang Fei said, “Is it possible that the European collector owns a lot of bronze antiques, so he deliberately hyped up this type of antiques? Even if he spends more money on this dish, he can also use other antiques in the future. Earn it back.”
Wang Yuanzhi said: “This possibility is not ruled out. The meaning of hype is ultimately to sell!”
Yang Fei thought, it really is!
In the entire history of bronze auctions, the Christie’s auction in 2001 was a watershed.
It is precisely because Sarfang Lei sold an unprecedentedly high price that it triggered a boom in bronzes in the world of collectors.
Since then, more and more bronzes have been auctioned at high prices, setting new highs repeatedly, ranging from tens of millions to hundreds of millions, constantly refreshing people’s understanding of the value of bronzes.
Yang Fei couldn’t help but think of what he had once hyped up Li Yanan’s paintings.
At this moment, the international capitalists are not speculating on bronzes?
Fu Heng said: “Boss It’s over ten thousand, you can make a move.”
Yang Fei nodded and said, “They will fight for a while.”
Fu Heng said: “Looking at the momentum of their offer, I’m afraid there is still competition!”
Yang Fei said, “They are all rich owners!”
Fu Heng said: “That would be too high! Such a hype, these people want to play a big game!”
When the bid price reached 6.5 million US dollars, Yang Fei finally raised his placard.
While raising the placard, Yang Fei reported a bid: “8 million U.S. dollars!”
From 6.5 million US dollars, suddenly soared to 8 million US dollars!
Strong wealth!
The eyes of the audience all looked at Yang Fei.
