After the professional evaluation of the International Gemological Institute of Antwerp, the color of this pear-shaped pink diamond has reached the highest level, with TypeⅡA quality, and the diamond texture is crystal clear, without any flaws!
It can be said with certainty that this is a top-quality and extremely precious top diamond, and it is a top pink diamond that has been very popular in the market in recent years. It is absolutely not to be missed!
The starting price of this pear-shaped pink diamond is 11 million euros, and each increase cannot be less than 200,000 euros. After more than 16 million euros, the increase cannot be less than 500,000 euros!
That's it for the introduction. The auction is now open. Everyone is welcome to bid, 11 million euros, 11 million euros, that gentleman or lady should bid, please raise your bid number plate! "
The passionate voice of the auctioneer came from the stage and resounded throughout the auction hall.
While quoting loudly, the auctioneer's eyes were like radar, scanning the audience quickly in order to find the buyer who raised the placard for the first time.
The auxiliary auctioneers standing on both sides of the auction table also patrolled the audience with their eyes, ready to check the missing vacancies at any time, remind the auctioneer to prevent the buyer's offer from being missed!
The auctioneer's voice has not yet fallen, and some buyers can't wait to raise the bidding plate. It is a middle-aged white woman sitting on the right side of the fourth row.
Almost at the same time the buyer raised the bid number plate, the auctioneer's hand was already pointing here, and he nodded to the buyer who was the first to bid.
"OK! Buyer No. 65 should pay 11 million euros. She is a beautiful lady, Mrs. Muller from Switzerland. Thank you very much for your support!
The current price is 11.2 million euros and 11.2 million euros. Which gentleman or lady should ask for the price? I look forward to seeing your bid number plate! "
With the loud and loud voice of the auctioneer, the new quotation has been released, and the curtain of competition has officially opened.
In a blink of an eye, another buyer held up the bidding plate in his hand. It was a jeweler from Southeast Asia, sitting a little behind, looking like a Chinese descent.
Immediately afterwards, many jewellers and individual buyers continued to raise bidding number plates to respond to prices, or to quote their own prices loudly, joining the competition!
In less than two minutes, the price of this 10-carat pear-shaped pink diamond quickly broke through the 13 million euro mark and began to advance towards 14 million euros.
When he broke the 13 million euro mark, Mr. Zheng from Hong Kong raised his bid number plate to join the competition, and directly quoted the price of 13.5 million euros.
When raising the placard for the offer, the jewellery tycoon from Hong Kong turned his head and glanced at Ye Tian with a smile on his face. There was a sense of challenge in his eyes.
Ye Tian just nodded with a smile, and didn't take any actual action to respond to the opponent.
Next, Mr. Liu, the Hong Kong super-rich sitting in the second row, and the British jewelry tycoon Lawrence sitting not far to the left of the first row, also joined the battle group.
The atmosphere on the scene is getting more and more hot, the competition is getting more and more fierce, bidding number plates one after another, and the voice of quotation is endless!
Soon, the price of this pear-shaped pink diamond rushed to 15 million euros, and the buyer who quoted this price was Mr. Liu sitting behind Ye Tian.
Hearing this offer, many competitors shook their heads helplessly and withdrew from the bidding.
Buyers participating in this jewellery and diamond auction are mostly jewellers from all over the world, and there are very few individual buyers like Ye Tian and Mr. Liu!
Moreover, the strength of these jewelers is not the same, and even different, there are super predators who dominate the jewelry market, and there are also small jewelers with only two or three shops!
Regardless of the size and strength, as a jeweler, you must consider the issue of profitability. You cannot bid wildly based on personal preferences. No one is willing to lose money and make money!
The price of this pear-shaped pink diamond is already very high at this time, and some small and medium jewelers with weaker strength and low brand premium can no longer see much profitability and have to opt out!
Even the powerful big jewelers, such as Mr. Cheng from Hong Kong and Lawrence from the UK, frowned upon hearing this offer, and hesitated somewhat!
But for Ye Tian, this price is just the beginning.
It's time to end the fight and take down this pear-shaped pink diamond as soon as possible. The real good show is yet to come!
Before raising the price, Ye Tian looked back at Mr. Liu from Hong Kong, smiling and whispering:
"Mr. Liu, I like this pear-shaped pink diamond very much. I want to take it and give it to my girlfriend. In other words, I'm going to bid for it. If there is any offense, please Haihan!"
"It doesn't matter, Xiaoye, this is a public auction. Anyone can compete on the spot. The higher the price is. It's very fair. Just let go of your hands and feet!
Besides, I would also like to see if your demeanor at the auction is the same as the legend, cruel and invincible! This is also a pleasure! "
Mr. Liu smiled and said in a low voice, without any unpleasant performance.
"That couldn't be better, Mr. Liu, this is my start!"
After speaking, Ye Tian turned back to look at the auction table ahead.
When the auctioneer shouted out the latest price of 15.5 million Euros and asked if anyone should ask for it, Ye Tian raised the bidding number plate for the first time and categorically quoted his price.
"Mr. Larson, 17 million euros!"
Ye Tian's voice was loud and loud, and it spread all over the front row area of the auction hall in an instant, reaching the ears of all the heavyweight buyers in the front row.
The latest offer he quoted was like a depth bomb, which directly blew up the first half of the auction hall, which caused an exclamation!
"God! Seventeen million euros, I heard you right? How can there be profit margins here? It is a blessing not to pay for this pear-shaped pink diamond at this price, plus a lot of commission!
This guy, Steven, is exactly the same as the legend. He is a veritable auction crocodile. He makes a fierce and decisive shot. As long as he sees something, he will never let it go! "
"Unlike us, he doesn't have to consider the issue of profit at all. Based on his own preferences, he can see that he is going to give this pear-shaped pink diamond to his girlfriend. It's so generous!
More importantly, this guy Steven is a super rich man, holding a large amount of freely disposable cash in his hand, he can sway it at will! How to compete with him in this situation?
With his momentum, there is no doubt that this pear-shaped pink diamond must fall into the hands of this guy, unless someone is willing to risk a huge loss and go hand-in-hand with Steven! "
While exclaiming and talking, almost everyone on the scene looked at Ye Tian, and everyone's eyes were full of jealousy and envy!
Mr. Liu, sitting behind Ye Tian, chuckled and shook his head and said:
"I have opened my eyes, Xiaoye, you are indeed crazy! It seems that you are bound to win this pear-shaped pink diamond. Then I'll retreat from gold, so as not to do useless work and waste feelings!"
Mr. Liu withdrew from the competition, and Mr. Zheng, who was not far away, also shook his head regretfully~www.wuxiaspot.com~ announced his withdrawal from the competition. Several other heavyweight buyers also withdrew from the competition.
In a blink of an eye, there are only two buyers competing for this pear-shaped pink diamond, one is naturally Ye Tian, and the other is the jewellery tycoon Lawrence from the UK!
When the auctioneer Larsson announced a loud price of 17.5 million euros, Lawrence pondered for a moment before he bit his posterior teeth and raised the bid number plate to accept the price!
At the next moment, everyone on the scene looked at Ye Tian to see how he would react!
The old guy Lawrence also looked over here, hoping that Ye Tian would die and let himself take down this pear-shaped pink diamond!
However, he saw the scene he least wanted to see, and heard a brand new offer that made his eyelids jump wildly and completely desperate.
"Larson, 19 million euros!"
The bid number plate in Ye Tian's hand was raised again, and a clear voice came out immediately, loudly!
Not surprisingly, the auction hall was fried again!
