Turnaround Life: The Rebirth Elegy of the Wealthy Wife
Chapter 7 Auction Shocking Price
When Tang Wensong and the security personnel pushed open the secret door, they were dumbfounded. The shocking scene made him stand still, unable to move forward or backward.
Jiang Kaichen was the first to react. He quickly turned around and hid the little girl behind him. His red ears and beads of sweat sliding down his forehead revealed his forbearance and embarrassment.
"I told you to bring her to this messy place." Before the cool breeze from outside the door blew in, the man's face quickly regained its calm. He frowned and began to blame Tang Wensong who was standing stupidly at the door.
"You..." Tang Wensong was scolded and his mind was confused and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.
After digesting it for a while, she could only point at her sister who was hiding behind the man and pinching his waist and started yelling.
"Come here. Didn't I tell you not to run around? You're the only one who can do that."
Tang Wenwan secretly poked her head out and secretly assessed Tang Wensong's anger level.
"Have you caught the bad guy?" She asked timidly, pretending to be still frightened, as if she could use this to prove her innocence.
Tang Wensong rolled his eyes at her and stretched out his arm to pull the person over.
"Fortunately, we discovered it early. The police and security have checked and found no damage." He glanced at Jiang Kaichen and added with regret, "We just didn't catch them. They got away."
Jiang Kaichen's eyes darkened, and without saying much, he signaled Tang Wensong to take Tang Wenwan out first.
Tang Wenwan followed her brother out, looking around secretly. A cordon had been set up backstage and security personnel were busy using professional tools to check and verify every piece of collection.
As soon as I sat down in the VIP seat, I heard the auctioneer's voice from the stage.
"Due to the impact of the emergency, we have decided to suspend the auction and wait for the results of the police investigation." The auctioneer announced solemnly, his face expressionless and full of professional relief.
Suddenly, an unknown atmosphere of tension and anxiety filled the entire auction venue.
Everyone's eyes became hesitant and nervous. They began to whisper and discuss the safety of the collection and how this sudden incident would affect the results of the auction.
Especially for those participants who have high hopes for the collections they have invested in, their eyes are full of anticipation and anxiety. As time goes by, this uncertain waiting makes the tension in the auction venue more and more intense.
Not long after, "The police have confirmed that all collections are safe." The auctioneer finally announced the results of the investigation in a firm tone.
He adjusted his bow tie and glanced again at the bidding data that was changing at any time.
The tense atmosphere in the venue gradually eased, some people began to whisper, while the buyers and sellers looked more serious.
"Now, we'll continue." The auctioneer waved the gavel in his hand, indicating that the auction was about to restart.
"Next, we will re-bid on Mr. Zao Wou-Ki's works..." He once again displayed the auction painting that had been temporarily interrupted just now, which once again caused a sensation in the crowd.
As night gradually fell, it covered the auction venue like a veil. The bright lights illuminated the entire hall, reflecting the anticipation and excitement on the faces of every participant.
The auctioneer waved the gavel, which seemed to ignite the fire in the whole venue. Everyone's eyes were focused on Mr. Zao Wou-Ki's work on the stage. This painting is praised as the pinnacle of contemporary painting art.
"The starting price is still 50 million!" The auctioneer's voice was loud and powerful, setting off an irrepressible wave of enthusiasm. Amid the cheers and expectations, the bidding boards were raised again, marking the beginning of the bidding.
The first offer was 60 million, from a gentleman wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who looked confident, as if he had a high opinion of the unique value of the collection.
However, competitors who were unwilling to be outdone continued to bid, quickly pushing the price to a staggering figure of 70 million, 80 million, and even 100 million.
The auction site was like ants on a hot pot, with people scrambling to bid, their desire for value and rarity making them desperate. Every bid increase was like a life-and-death struggle, and the auctioneer's voice seemed inaudible at this moment.
Zhu Xin and his family sat in the corner of the VIP seats, nervously watching everything that happened on the stage. Mr. Zhu clenched his hands, his eyes solemn and deep.
The auctioneer further ignited the atmosphere: "One hundred and fifty million! This is the highest respect for the work of an outstanding artist." His voice resounded throughout the venue, as if giving everyone room to breathe.
However, just when everyone thought that the peak had been reached, a deep voice suddenly rang out: "One hundred and eighty million!" Everyone's eyes turned to the source of the voice.
It was a woman wearing a gorgeous long dress and with flowing hair. She sat in the VIP box, like a fairy from ancient times who had stepped into reality. Her beauty and nobility aroused a sensation at the scene and attracted countless attention.
Since then, the competition in the auction house has entered a white-hot stage, and every bid is like a contest between heaven and man. The auctioneer is sweating and banging the gavel repeatedly, calling on the courage and determination of the bidders.
"3 million!" When Jiang Kaili's offer sounded like thunder in the auction hall, the whole scene fell into silence. It was far more than any previous bidder's bid, and the number was unbelievable.
Tang Wensong and his sister looked at each other, their eyes full of surprise and disbelief. Mr. Zhu was so frightened that his hands trembled and he held on to the table tightly to calm himself down.
The auctioneer also paused for a moment, then continued to bang the gavel with a serious face: "Three hundred million, we have an amazing offer! Is there anyone willing to continue to bid?" His voice echoed in the hall, but there was no immediate response.
In the face of such a high number, no one seemed to dare to challenge it easily. The wealthy people at the scene exchanged glances, wondering whether they should continue bidding.
This is a wonderful moment in the auction industry. Everyone wants to own a rare collection, but they also have to consider their bottom line and their own strength. The auctioneer knows this and he patiently waits for the moment when someone dares to take the bid.
Just when the atmosphere was a little stagnant, "3 million..."
The lady who quoted 180 million just now stood up in the VIP box. She gracefully held the champagne glass in her hand and gestured provocatively in the direction of Jiang Kaichen.
The whole audience was stunned. This mysterious woman actually dared to bite Jiang Kaichen. Her courage was evident from the evidence.
A look of annoyance emerged on Jiang Kaili's face. Without even raising his eyelids, he signaled his assistant to raise the bidding card.
"Five hundred million," he whispered.
With Jiang Kaili's response, the entire auction site was once again in an uproar. The price was no longer a competition of numbers, but a contest of strength and courage.
The auctioneer banged the gavel repeatedly, and the sound echoed throughout the hall: "Five hundred million! We have a new bid. Who else is willing to increase the bid? Please continue."
All eyes were focused on the stage, and everyone was eagerly waiting for the next amazing bid. In this auction, everyone involved felt an unprecedented excitement and tension.
The auctioneer took back the gavel in his hand and scanned the venue, waiting for a higher bid. However, at this moment, everyone fell silent. Jiang Kaichen's offer was so huge that it discouraged other bidders.
The auctioneer's voice rang out again: "Five hundred million! Is there no one willing to continue bidding?" His words spread throughout the venue, hitting everyone's eardrums like an electric current.
Everyone's anxious hearts finally relaxed, and they began to discuss the feat of this auction, mentioning Jiang Kaichen's name all the time.
After the final decision was made, Jiang Kaichen, under the attention of everyone, did not greet the original collector, Mr. Zhu, nor did he exchange pleasantries with the organizers. He strode straight to the VIP box where the Tang brothers and sisters were.
Just as he pushed open the door of the box, a figure stopped him from entering.
"Does Mr. Jiang always like to take away other people's things?" A soft voice came, and the beautiful woman who had been holding on during the bidding just now leaned against the door in front of her with a complaining tone, like a seductress.
