"Ladies and gentlemen, the starting price of this red sandalwood official hat chair is 200,000 U.S. dollars, and the minimum increase in each bid must not be less than 10,000 U.S. dollars. The bidding starts, 200,000 U.S. dollars, 200,000 U.S. dollars, does anyone respond?"
Brady shouted quickly, loudly and resounding throughout the audience.
While making the offer, he quickly scanned the audience, looking for and discovering the bid number plate that was raised.
At this moment, his main concern is the large number of Asian faces in the audience. In all likelihood, competition is between these Asians, and mainly between Chinese.
Europeans and Americans don't understand the restrained and subtle beauty of Chinese classical furniture. They should not participate in the competition. Even if there are one or two, most of them have the mentality of picking up bargains or investing, and there are few that really want to collect!
In recent years, with the rapid rise of China, more and more Chinese have appeared in large-scale international auctions, and they are buying Chinese antique works of art on a global scale! Quite a bit of momentum, like a rainbow, sweeping the army!
With their strong support, the prices of Chinese antique artworks have risen, and they have soared upwards! Constantly creating various new records!
At the moment, there are dozens of Asian faces in the auction hall, most of them are buyers from China, and there are three or five devils.
These Chinese investors and collectors, with large amounts of cash and generous sales, are the most popular guests of major auction houses, and this one is no exception.
Someone in the audience raised the bidding number plate, and it turned out to be a Chinese.
"Someone asked for 200,000 U.S. dollars, from Mr. 132, thank you! Now it is 210,000 U.S. dollars, 210,000 U.S. dollars, which lady or gentleman shall offer?"
Brad raised his hand and gestured to the audience, then quoted the new price, still speaking fast.
Ye Ma did not immediately participate in the competition, but glanced at the man who raised the placard in front of him, who was about 30 years old.
"That's Lao Fang's son in Shanghai. I saw him in Hong Kong before. In the past two years, he has often appeared in various auctions on his behalf. It seems that Lao Fang also has ideas about this official hat chair!"
Another collector Mr. Wang whispered.
"It's not surprising. As long as you collect Chinese antiques, you won't dislike this chair when you see it. There are a lot of familiar faces here. There are certainly not a few bidding through the phone and the Internet. Let's see it!"
Master Ma said with a smile, as if an old **** was there.
The bidding officially began. With Brad’s quotations again and again, the bidding number plates under the stage came and went, almost without interruption, and occasionally some active price hikes were heard. The scene was very lively.
Without exception, almost all the people who bid for the price are Chinese.
At first there were two or three devils holding cards, but they soon died down, and they were defeated. They could only hide themselves to the side secretly, and kept feeling that the Chinese were too rich!
The price of the red sandalwood official hat chair was quickly pushed to 500,000 US dollars, which is already 1.5 times the starting price. It is also a rare high price in red sandalwood antique furniture!
At this time, not only those devils were secretly lamenting that the Chinese are rich, but the many European and American collectors present were also deeply moved by the wallets of these Chinese people.
"Wow! It's just a chair, and it's not a royal product. It actually bid a high price of $500,000. These Chinese people are so rich!"
"Who said no! The Chinese are about to buy the whole world! Fortunately, most of them only like antique art from their own country. They should not be our direct competitors!
Of course, except for Steven’s bastard, for that bastard, no matter where the antique art is, as long as there is money to make, he will eat everything! Definitely an extremely greedy villain! "
Hearing Brad's offer of 500,000 U.S. dollars, Ye Tian immediately murmured a translation to Ma Ye, and then asked:
"Master Ma, is it time to make a deal? This price should be the psychological price of many people!"
Ye Tian was right. There was a hint of disappointment in the eyes of several Chinese who participated in the bidding. US$500,000 was already their limit!
Since this price cannot be won, it can only withdraw regretfully. This rare red sandalwood official hat chair in the early Ming Dynasty has no chance with them!
"Ye Tian, you are right. It is indeed time to take action. The real competition has just begun. You bid me 550,000 U.S. dollars. I will raise the card. Let's cooperate and clear the field!"
Ma Ye smiled and nodded and said, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
"Go! You can do it! Clearing the venue has always been my skill!"
Ye Tian nodded excitedly and smiled brilliantly.
Immediately afterwards, he immediately shouted:
"$550,000, Brad!"
As he bid the price, the sign in Ma Ye's hand was also held up high.
Hearing the shouts, everyone immediately looked to this side. When everyone saw that the card holder was not Ye Tian, but another Chinese, they couldn't help feeling very surprised!
"Why isn't Steven the **** holding up the placard? Is this another antique he sent for the auction? Then let the people around you help raise the price, and prepare to cheat others!"
"Do not rule out this possibility, what can the **** do? But it is also possible that the Chinese guy next to him does not understand English, so that the **** Steven made the offer!
No matter what, everyone should be careful. Looking at this posture, the **** Steven is about to start a war again. Fortunately, I am not interested in Chinese antique furniture, and unfortunately it is someone else! "
This is obviously a group of foreigners who don't know Mr. Ma, and they can only make random suspicions.
Those people who know Ye Tian and Ma Ye don’t think Ma Ye will hold a card for Ye Tian. It must be Ma Ye himself who is interested in this official hat chair. This is for Ye Tian to help him bid!
Even so, everyone felt a headache.
Why did these two get together?
One is a big collector in domestic collectors and an old fox in an auction house; the other is a well-known professional treasure hunter in the United States, with sharp eyesight and tough shots, that is not easy to deal with!
Brad standing on the auction stage was also taken aback. What happened? Steven is asking someone a price? Or are you ready to continue cheating? How sacred is this old Chinese man?
But in a flash he woke up.
What's the purpose of Steven! All you have to do is to stare at the bid number plate. As long as you don't disrupt the auction order, everything else has nothing to do with you.
"Mr. 90 quoted 550,000 U.S. dollars, now it is 570,000 U.S. dollars, 570,000 U.S. dollars. Which lady or gentleman should ask for the price? This is a classic piece of furniture with a 500-year history. Don't miss it!"
At the same time as the offer, Brad again began to confuse everyone with a clever tongue, in an attempt to get more bidders to participate in the bidding.
It's a pity that he is not Chinese, and he doesn't speak Chinese. Few Chinese people here understand the fast-spoken English after that!
Everyone just stared at his quotation, and then made a decision based on the established plan. It was not affected too much, nor was it too excited to lose reason! Impulsive bidding!
Most of the translations brought by many Chinese buyers only translate the quotation, regardless of other content.
So, Brad's bewilderment is completely glamorous for the blind! It's all useless!
The clearing plan worked, and several bidders shook their heads and withdrew from the competition, with disappointed faces.
After quitting, all of them nodded to Ma Ye, as long as they were buyers from China who didn't know Ma Ye, the etiquette on the scene was still indispensable.
To these few, Ma Ye responded politely, very thoughtful and impeccable!
However, several competitors continued to insist and did not give up.
After a few seconds, someone raised the bidding number plate and accepted the price of $570,000.
Seeing this situation, Ma Ye did not hesitate, and immediately whispered:
"Ye Tian, continue to bid for US$670,000. Let's not play with the warm water boiled frog set. That might push the price higher. Cutting the mess with a sharp knife is the best choice right now!"
"Okay! Look at me!"
Ye Tian responded with a smile, and immediately quoted loudly.
"$670,000, Brad!"
The sound was very loud and reached everyone's ears.
Hearing this offer, there was an exclamation immediately.
"Wow! It's crazy! The price is raised by $100,000 at a time. This is just an antique chair! Is there such a high value?"
"It seems that Steven is bidding. This is in line with his usual auction style and a strong clearing! Or is it that the Chinese on the auction floor are so strong and the shots are so harsh?"
Amidst the debate, Brad quoted a new price again.
"Mr. 90 raised the price again, quoting 670,000 U.S. dollars, now it is 700,000 U.S. dollars, 700,000 U.S. dollars, which gentleman should offer?
While making a loud offer, Brad stared at the other competitors in the audience, hoping that someone would raise the bid number plate again.
But this time he waited a little longer!
Two of the competitors shook their heads one after another, announcing their withdrawal from the bidding, full of disappointment.
Afterwards, they also nodded to Ma Ye and Ye Tian.
At this time, they were not sure whether it was Ma Ye or Ye Tian who wanted to take down the official hat chair!
This bidding strategy is too aggressive! It's more like Ye Tian's handwriting. That kid has always been known for his fierce and crazy shots. Maybe he is messing up this time!
If it is him, then it is better to quit early, don't let this kid be tricked, this kid is also famous for being good at tricking people, you must be more careful!
There is only one competitor left, and that is the Shanghai buddy who originally asked for the price.
He quickly said a few words to the phone before finally making a decision, accepting a $700,000 offer.
Obviously, this buddy's father is commanding remotely!
However, it is not difficult to see from this man's iron-blue face that he is also approaching his limit! It is estimated that in another round, this buddy is about to retreat!
This is only the first New York autumn auction, there is no need to spend too much money here!
The gaze of most Chinese collectors is mainly focused on the Chinese porcelain auction a few days later, that is the highlight! This buddy is definitely no exception!
Seeing the opponent's performance, Ye Tian and Ma Ye immediately smiled at each other!
Time to end!
"Ye Tian, bid 800,000 US dollars, this should be the last one!"
Ma Ye smiled and whispered ~www.novelhall.com~ very confident.
Soon after, Ye Tian's voice resounded through the auction hall again.
"800,000 dollars, Brad!"
In line with his offer, the bidding number plate in Ma Ye's hand was also raised.
as predicted!
Hearing this offer, the buddy from Shanghai shook his head disappointedly and announced his withdrawal from the competition, without any hesitation.
Immediately afterwards, he immediately turned his head to look at Ma Ye and Ye Tian, nodded lightly, with a wry smile!
The last competitor leaves and the auction is done!
"830,000 U.S. dollars, 830,000 U.S. dollars, did anyone respond? The first time, second time, and Sold of 830,000 U.S. dollars! A transaction of 800,000 U.S. dollars, congratulations to Mr. 90, this chair belongs to you!"
After asking loudly several times, after seeing no one bid, Brad quickly settled the hammer and ended the auction!
"Master Ma, congratulations on getting your wish and successfully taking down this red sandalwood official hat chair!"
Ye Tian clasped his fists and arched his hands, and said with a smile at Master Ma.
"Hahaha, this auction went very smoothly indeed, your boy has cooperated very well, thank you! I hope there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future!"
Ma Ye smiled and replied in a low voice, very excited!
At this time, his folds on his face were completely opened, as if he had been ironed with an iron, and he was several decades younger!
The auction continues, still with Chinese antique furniture.
After a few pieces of relatively ordinary antique furniture, another important item appeared!
"The case of Hainan Huanghuali alone in the late Ming Dynasty!"
There is no doubt that this is the goal of Mr. Li's trip.
When this picture of the Huanghuali case appeared on the projection screen, he immediately reacted! )!!

Don't miss it!"At the same time as the offer, Brad again began to confuse everyone with a clever tongue, in an attempt to get more bidders to participate in the bidding.It's a pity that he is not Chinese, and he doesn't speak Chinese. Few Chinese people here understand the fast-spoken English after that!Everyone just stared at his quotation, and then made a decision based on the established plan. It was not affected too much, nor was it too excited to lose reason! Impulsive bidding!Most of the translations brought by many Chinese buyers only translate the quotation, regardless of other content.So, Brad's bewilderment is completely glamorous for the blind! It's all useless!The clearing plan worked, and several bidders shook their heads and withdrew from the competition, with disappointed faces.After quitting, all of them nodded to Ma Ye, as long as they were buyers from China who didn't know Ma Ye, the etiquette on the scene was still indispensable.To these few, Ma Ye responded politely, very thoughtful and impeccable!However, several competitors continued to insist and did not give up.After a few seconds, someone raised the bidding number plate and accepted the price of $570,000.Seeing this situation, Ma Ye did not hesitate, and immediately whispered:"Ye Tian, continue to bid for US$670,000. Let's not play with the warm water boiled frog set. That might push the price higher. Cutting the mess with a sharp knife is the best choice right now!""Okay! Look at me!"Ye Tian responded with a smile, and immediately quoted loudly."$670,000, Brad!"The sound was very loud and reached everyone's ears.Hearing this offer, there was an exclamation immediately."Wow! It's crazy! The price is raised by $100,000 at a time. This is just an antique chair! Is there such a high value?""It seems that Steven is bidding. This is in line with his usual auction style and a strong clearing! Or is it that the Chinese on the auction floor are so strong and the shots are so harsh?"Amidst the debate, Brad quoted a new price again."Mr. 90 raised the price again, quoting 670,000 U.S. dollars, now it is 700,000 U.S. dollars, 700,000 U.S. dollars, which gentleman should offer?While making a loud offer, Brad stared at the other competitors in the audience, hoping that someone would raise the bid number plate again.But this time he waited a little longer!Two of the competitors shook their heads one after another, announcing their withdrawal from the bidding, full of disappointment.Afterwards, they also nodded to Ma Ye and Ye Tian.At this time, they were not sure whether it was Ma Ye or Ye Tian who wanted to take down the official hat chair!This bidding strategy is too aggressive! It's more like Ye Tian's handwriting. That kid has always been known for his fierce and crazy shots. Maybe he is messing up this time!If it is him, then it is better to quit early, don't let this kid be tricked, this kid is also famous for being good at tricking people, you must be more careful!There is only one competitor left, and that is the Shanghai buddy who originally asked for the price.He quickly said a few words to the phone before finally making a decision, accepting a $700,000 offer.Obviously, this buddy's father is commanding remotely!However, it is not difficult to see from this man's iron-blue face that he is also approaching his limit! It is estimated that in another round, this buddy is about to retreat!This is only the first New York autumn auction, there is no need to spend too much money here!The gaze of most Chinese collectors is mainly focused on the Chinese porcelain auction a few days later, that is the highlight! This buddy is definitely no exception!Seeing the opponent's performance, Ye Tian and Ma Ye immediately smiled at each other!Time to end!"Ye Tian, bid 800,000 US dollars, this should be the last one!"Ma Ye smiled and whispered ~www.novelhall.com~ very confident.Soon after, Ye Tian's voice resounded through the auction hall again."800,000 dollars, Brad!"In line with his offer, the bidding number plate in Ma Ye's hand was also raised.as predicted!Hearing this offer, the buddy from Shanghai shook his head disappointedly and announced his withdrawal from the competition, without any hesitation.Immediately afterwards, he immediately turned his head to look at Ma Ye and Ye Tian, nodded lightly, with a wry smile!The last competitor leaves and the auction is done!"830,000 U.S. dollars, 830,000 U.S. dollars, did anyone respond? The first time, second time, and Sold of 830,000 U.S. dollars! A transaction of 800,000 U.S. dollars, congratulations to Mr. 90, this chair belongs to you!"After asking loudly several times, after seeing no one bid, Brad quickly settled the hammer and ended the auction!"Master Ma, congratulations on getting your wish and successfully taking down this red sandalwood official hat chair!"Ye Tian clasped his fists and arched his hands, and said with a smile at Master Ma."Hahaha, this auction went very smoothly indeed, your boy has cooperated very well, thank you! I hope there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future!"Ma Ye smiled and replied in a low voice, very excited!At this time, his folds on his face were completely opened, as if he had been ironed with an iron, and he was several decades younger!The auction continues, still with Chinese antique furniture.After a few pieces of relatively ordinary antique furniture, another important item appeared!"The case of Hainan Huanghuali alone in the late Ming Dynasty!"There is no doubt that this is the goal of Mr. Li's trip.When this picture of the Huanghuali case appeared on the projection screen, he immediately reacted! !!
