Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    At the auction, the atmosphere between the wealthy Arab oil businessman and the Egyptian scholar was tense. They had the attitude of killing you with money if they had a disagreement. The wealthy businessman was about sixty years old, with a smooth hair and a pink face, and wore a pure gold collar around his neck.  He was not anxious at all about the Egyptologist's bidding. He slowly held up the sign. As soon as the Egyptologist raised his sign, he would hold it up again.  The Egyptian scholar's momentum was obviously lacking. As the wealthy Arab oil businessmen competed for the price, his face became increasingly ugly, and the hand holding the sign could not help but tremble. He was bidding on behalf of the National Museum of Egypt.  He originally thought that some of the stolen ancient Egyptian cultural relics would definitely fall into his hands, but he did not expect that the bidding price of this rich Arab oil businessman who came out halfway was much higher than his estimate.  At this moment, the price of Tutankhamun's pure gold mask was speculated to a sky-high price of 65 million US dollars by wealthy oil businessmen and Egyptologists. This price shocked many people present. Many of them are regular visitors to world auctions.  , although it is said that the items on display at the world auction will be much higher than those at the orthodox auction on land, the transaction price of the items at the world auction will be more or less estimated. This piece  The price of a pure gold mask is as high as 40 million US dollars, nearly 300 million yuan. Unexpectedly, these two lunatics fetched it to more than 60 million yuan, which is nearly 500 million yuan.  Zhang Yi was also very surprised, 500 million yuan?  A broken pure gold mask allowed these two lunatics to fetch this price. They can be regarded as two great men in the auction world. If these 500 million yuan were converted into paper, they could burn it for a month.  Money, to everyone in this venue, is really just a number.  In the end, perhaps the wealthy oil businessman felt that the Egyptian scholar was about to go berserk, so he stopped bidding and said that he would no longer participate in the bidding. In the end, the pure gold mask was obtained by the Egyptian scholar for a high price of U.S.$10,000. However, maybe when  Tears would burst into his face whenever he held this mask.  After the high tide of bidding for this ancient Egyptian cultural relic, a new round of low tide began again. In this round, modern artworks accounted for the most, although the prices of these modern artworks cannot be compared with those of historical cultural relics and ancient cultural relics.  But each piece is also unique. It just lacks the accumulation of history. I believe that after thousands of years, these things will become a new generation of ancient cultural relics.  After more than fifty pieces of various foreign treasures were sold, the first ancient cultural relic of China was finally on the market. At this time, Zhang Yi, who was a little sleepy, suddenly cheered up and sat up straight. This auction  Yes, his goal is not to let go of any Chinese cultural relics. Although he doesn't know how much money Feili can lend him, he can take as many pictures as he can, and the ones he can't take will even fall into the hands of others.  , he also wants to remember this person and find a way to get it back in the future. Millions of cultural relics from China have been lost overseas for so many years. He can recover one by one. It doesn¡¯t mean how great or selfless he is. He just knows  The old man had taught him that in this life, a person must bear as much responsibility as he has the ability. If no one in this country stands up, it will not be far from destruction.  Moreover, the most important thing is that these lost cultural relics do not mean that you can buy them if you have money, but that you have to know where they are and finally get into the dark trading base of the World Trade Organization to learn about these cultural relics.  Whereabouts, if you miss this village, you won¡¯t have this shop.  Every ancient cultural relic can trigger a new round of bidding climax. When two security personnel carried a transparent glass covered with red cloth to Taishan, the auctioneer grinned and said loudly: "This cultural relic comes from the Chinese Kingdom and the Warring States Period."  Period, which is only 2,300 years old, the Warring States Period is the earliest silk painting in China. " As he said that, the auctioneer walked to the table, uncovered the red cloth on the transparent glass, and placed it in the glass box.  On display is a silk book about 40 centimeters high and 45 centimeters wide on the left and right sides. It is framed with a gold edge and is very exquisite.  The Warring States Period can be said to be one of the earliest lost top cultural relics of the Huaxia Kingdom. It has the same value as the "Yongle Dadian" encyclopedia that has been fragmented to this day. The Warring States Period was unearthed from the mainland of China in the 1940s.  By three years, it had flowed into the American continent, and was later found in the Yale University Library in America. However, after a shocking theft in the Yale University Library in the 1980s, this silk book disappeared and there was no news.  Zhang Yi didn't expect to see him here again today.  The value of the Warring States Period script lies in the Warring States Period script written on this kind of silk fabric. This is the real handwriting of the Warring States Period and has important historical data value for the history of calligraphy research in the Huaxia Kingdom.  This Chinese cultural relic made Zhang Yi very happy, and he whispered to the old steward Loren next to him: "I must get this thing, old steward Loren, you have dealt with these things as an adult, you estimate  "How much will its transaction price be?" Old Butler Loren held out three fingers and said with a smile: "It's already over $30 million. I estimate that its transaction price will be around $25 million. That's it."  This thing is not like before?Tutankhamun's pure gold mask will not be fetched at such a high price. There are also many Chinese collectors and archaeologists in this venue. Compared with businessmen, they are not very rich. It is too high.  They can't afford the price, and for foreign businessmen, even if they are interested in this thing, but it exceeds their estimated price, they are not willing to spend too much money. After all, they don't have much research on this thing.  value.  " Zhang Yi nodded, no one was competing for the best, so as not to waste more money. " Under the auctioneer's announcement, the Warring States Period began bidding at a price of five million US dollars, and each increase in price should not be less than half a million US dollars.  This item may have the greatest value in the field of archeology and calligraphy, so most of the people participating in the auction are well-known archaeologists, contemporary calligraphers, etc. But what makes Zhang Yi feel a little sad is that he found that these bidders  Most of the archaeologists and calligraphers are Chinese from overseas. The Chinese who participated in the bidding is just a collector, and this collector is also relatively old, about sixty years old. Facing the bidding prices of these overseas Chinese  , without losing the pride that a Chinese person should have, which made Zhang Yi instantly have a favorable impression of this collector. In just ten minutes, the price of the Warring States Silk Book reached 10 million U.S. dollars, and after this price, there were  Many people gave up, and four people participated in the bidding. In addition to the Chinese collector, there were two men and one woman. It seemed that they were all wealthy overseas Chinese businessmen.
