Still, no one answered. At this time, the buyers under the stage are no longer looking around, and everyone's eyes are focused on Qi Ning to see how he ends.
There was laughter and compassion in that look. The chief auctioneer of Tangtang Huabao International, presiding over the auction of the most final lot at the national pivotal spring auction, unexpectedly no one bid.
How funny and sad is this?
Qi Ning's face flushed, was about to throw down the auction hammer, turned around and stepped down.
Just then, suddenly someone raised the card and shouted, "I bid... ..."
The sign was raised by a middle-aged man sitting a little to the left in the middle of the third row, a voice that attracted everyone's eyes in the hall.
Smugly, he turned the sign in his hand, showed it to the people around him, and shouted, "I'm bidding 100,000!"
The starting price of 800,000 jade plug screen, he only bid 100,000, which is obviously trouble, spoofing.
Qi Ning, who clearly knew the man, kept his courtesy and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu, but your offer is lower than the starting price, so it is invalid."
The middle-aged man surnamed Liu smiled and said, "Oh, I saw you shouting on stage, and no one paid attention to you, and it was embarrassing to want to help you out." It turns out that I did wrong, this most precious finale, it seems that Huabao International is to keep it for itself, not ready to auction out."
When it came to "the most precious finale", he deliberately accentuated his tone, causing a burst of laughter.
"Take it out for auction, of course, it's ready for auction," Qi Ning said reluctantly.
The middle-aged man surnamed Liu turned tone and asked loudly: "Ready to auction out, why is the starting price so high?" It's worth 800,000, is it qualified to be the finale?"
Zininin couldn't speak.
The middle-aged man surnamed Liu did not relent, aggressive and authentic: "More than two dozen antique experts say it is a low-grade product, and Mr. Wang Shifu concluded that it is only worth 100,000 yuan, can their eyes still have problems?" You use low-grade products as the finale lot, only worth 100,000 but starting to shoot 800,000, is you trying to rely on the reputation of Warburg International, deceive buyers, defraud money? Or deliberately use low-grade products as the finale, create gimmicks, deceive everyone's feelings, attract everyone's attention? Whatever your purpose, this behavior is extremely bad. As an auction industry insider, I Liu Huadong despises you! Huabao International is big, and then well-known, can not wantonly play with all buyers! And you Qining, famous mouth, famous eyes, first-class appreciation ability, can not see the value of goods? Where is your most basic work ethic, with all the money in your eyes?"
The more this statement became more and more severe, from criticizing the lot, to criticizing Huabao International, and finally turned to the personal attack on Qi Ning. Said Qi Ning hands to support the case, pale, embarrassed to the extreme, but is a rebuttal can not say.
The mood of the buyers offstage was also inflamed and followed by a cajole. Some sneers, some contempt, some scolding, some three or five groups, exchanging contempt for Huabao International, Qining. ... The whole auction was at its peak.
