Chapter 1770: Crazy bidding
"Steven, 2.5 billion euros"
Someone in the audience raised their hands and said loudly, with an aura of giving up to me.
This is an active price increase. On the basis of Ye Tian's offer, he raised 50 million euros at once. The price increase is quite amazing.
The one who took the initiative to raise prices is Fried, a top collector from Germany, and is also an old friend of Ye Tian. They had met several times before in New York and Paris.
Several oil paintings of German artists by Ye Tian, such as a representative work by the artist Dürer, were acquired by this top collector.
Fried's words have not yet fallen, and the scene is boiling again. Everyone turned to look at the top German collector with shocked faces.
"Wow! Two and a half billion euros, that's an exaggeration. I didn't expect Fried's family to be so rich, which was a bit unexpected to me!"
"A one-time price increase of 50 million euros is a big deal. Obviously, Fried wants to clear the field in this way and show his determination to defeat the rest of the competitors!"
In fact, Fried's bidding strategy did work, or part of it worked.
Hearing his offer and the momentum he showed, several competitors in the audience shook their heads one after another, with their faces full of disappointment and frustration, and withdrew from this crazy competition.
However, several powerful super-rich and top collectors remained unmoved. They just nodded at Freed with a smile, still fighting spirit.
At this time, this private auction, which is destined to cause a sensation in the world and create a new record of art transactions, has already started for nearly twenty minutes.
After dozens of rounds of crazy bidding, the price of "Lisa Gladini" has skyrocketed, and it has quickly reached 2.5 billion euros, an extremely astonishing price.
In the process, the super-rich and top collectors continue to participate in the competition, raising their hands in response to the price, and there are also people shaking their heads in disappointment and exiting the competition with endless regrets.
The first to withdraw from the competition was Tiano, who was the first to raise his hand and act on behalf of the Italian Ministry of Culture. The budget of the Italian Ministry of Culture was obviously very limited. After only a few rounds of competition, they were defeated.
After that, Tiano and Giovanni were completely reduced to spectators, standing in the middle of the crowd depressed, their eyes of envy and jealousy were red, and they were almost bleeding out!
2.5 billion euros! What an astonishing price this is, it has exceeded the psychological price of most competitors, and even far beyond their imagination.
At this time, there are very few buyers remaining in the competitors' ranks, only five or six people remain.
But these five or six people are all world-famous super-rich and famous top collectors. Everyone has a fortune and his strength is unfathomable!
So far, the competition around "Lisa Gladini" has not stopped, but has become more intense, and the smell of gunpowder in the air has become more intense!
Hearing the high price of 2.5 billion euros quoted by Fried, Ye Tian's eyes immediately flashed with ecstasy, and he almost cheered with excitement.
Beyond this price, it means that "Lisa Gladini" no longer belongs to him.
When the auction is over, once the auction hammer in his hand is dropped, this priceless treasure will officially change ownership and become the trophy of the bid winner.
There is no other reason, because 2.5 billion euros is the reserve price of "Lisa Gladini".
After Fried took the initiative to raise the price, Ye Tian paused for a while, then raised his finger to the old friend from Germany, and then said passionately:
"Wow! Two and a half billion euros, Fried's price is 2.5 billion euros. I have to say that this is really a big deal. The current price of "Lisa Gladini" is 2.52 billion euros.
Which gentleman or lady should pay the price? Maria, Silvio, Bernard, and Dimitris, do you ask for your price? Don't miss this opportunity, don't miss this priceless treasure! "
While quoting loudly, he also pointed out the names of several super rich and top collectors who are still in the competition, and continued to confuse these super predators!
As soon as the voice fell, someone immediately responded.
Italy's richest man Maria raised her right hand in response to the price, and jokingly said loudly:
"Well, Steven, I'll take this offer. Obviously, whoever wins today will be ransacked by you guys. Anyway, I'm ready to go bankrupt!"
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and everyone laughed.
And everyone nodded at the same time, obviously feeling the same, thinking Maria's remark made sense.
"The bankruptcy? How could it be possible? Maria, you are the real richest man in Italy, with a net worth of tens of billions, and billions of euros are nothing to you!
What's more, this "Lisa Gladini" is really worth the money. Especially for your company, it can be used as a publicity sign, registered as a trademark, and develop a series of products.
If it works well, let alone the tens of billions of dollars that you bought this oil painting, even tens of billions of euros, you can easily earn it back, and the value of the paintings will be preserved and appreciated, which is absolutely a huge profit! "
Ye Tian said with a smile, chatting with the richest Italian man in the audience, and did not rush to quote a new price.
Hearing his words, Maria's eyes immediately brightened and shined straight.
It's no exaggeration to say that Ye Tian's remarks simply touched her heart.
The reason why she participated in this private auction is that she loves art~www.wuxiaspot.com~ in order to take "Lisa Gladini" into her own collection and treat it as an art investment. Increasing the value of.
But the main purpose is to consider the family business.
She saw the huge potential value of "Lisa Gladini" at a glance, and wanted to make it a top-notch brand, create a series of products to market, and increase the visibility of the family business.
The scene has the same purpose ~www.wuxiaspot.com~. Maria is by no means alone. The other super-rich have their own plans. Who doesn't want to own a gold mine comparable to "Mona Lisa"!
But those top collectors have a relatively simple mind. Most of them are interested in art and art collection, so they participate in the auction!
"Steven, you guys are so savvy, or stop being a professional treasure hunter, come and work for my company, I will give you the highest salary in the industry!"
Maria said jokingly, her eyes full of appreciation.
Ye Tian shook his head slightly, smiled and said loudly:
"Forget it, Maria, everyone knows that Ferrero is a family business. Your two sons, Pidro and Giovanni, are veritable business geniuses. If you join your company, there will be no future!
More importantly, I don't want to work for others, and I prefer antique art, explore treasures, and explore unknown secrets. This life is enjoyable, but I still want to thank you for your invitation! "
Upon hearing this, Maria immediately shrugged her shoulders pretending to be regretful, but her eyes flashed with pride, obviously she was proud and proud of her two sons.
