"Steven, let me help you break through the $600 million mark, although it is useless! It cannot win this masterpiece of Michelangelo"
Julian looked towards Ye Tian and said, getting ready to join the fight.
Six hundred million US dollars was the valuation given by Ye Tian in public during the live video broadcast. Everyone knew that it was also the point at which many heavyweight buyers were preparing to intervene in this competition.
From here on, the competition really begins, before it was just a warm-up!
Ye Tian turned to look at Julian, then nodded with a smile and said:
"That's the best, Julian. As a friend, I wish you will get what you want, beat all other competitors, and win this priceless top-notch work of art!"
"I hope so, that's exactly why I'm here!"
As he spoke, Julian raised the bidding number in his hand and loudly announced his price.
"Six hundred million dollars, Jefferson"
His quotation was like a blockbuster, directly detonating the entire auction hall.
"Did I hear that right? Sixty million US dollars, an increase of thirty million US dollars, which is too big. What's even more incredible is that this is actually MOMA's quotation!
In the auction market, isn’t MOMA always known for its stability? When did you become so radical? Or did the Rockefeller family give them strong financial support? "
"This is the rhythm of clearing the field! Except for those powerful super predators, other competitors are expected to be kicked out soon and become miserable spectators.
The next competition will be a head-to-head fight between super predators. It will definitely be very fierce. If there is nothing else to do with others, it is better to die early and escape early to avoid wasting emotions! "
The fact is that as people expected, the price of US$600 million was indeed a watershed moment, and it eliminated many competitors at once.
After hearing the offer given by Julian, many buyers immediately showed expressions of despair on their faces and had to withdraw from the competition, becoming just spectators with full of regrets.
"Fuck! I hate Steven, this greedy bastard, and Julian, this old guy with a brain-damaged brain!"
The buyers who dropped out of the competition were cursing under their breath, but it didn't help.
“Buyer No. 10 quoted an offer of US$600 million. Mr. Julian from MOMA is really a generous and admirable person. He is worthy of being one of the top museums in the world.
As mentioned before, after exceeding US$600 million, the minimum increase was adjusted to US$5 million. The current price is US$605 million, US$605 million. Which gentleman should pay? "
While making a loud offer, Jefferson's eyes kept scanning the audience, expecting the next buyer to come forward.
As he wished, another bidding number plate was raised high, and the new price appeared at the same time.
"$610 million, Jefferson"
The one who quoted this price is the Baptist Church from the South of the United States. It is also the largest church organization in the South of the United States. It is powerful and influential!
"Buyer No. 30 quoted an offer of US$610 million. They are several religious figures from the south. The current price is US$615 million, US$615 million. Which one Will the buyer accept this price? ”
Jefferson raised his hand and gestured to the Baptists and shouted passionately.
Before he finished speaking, someone in the front row had already raised his bidding sign.
"Here, Jefferson!"
"Buyer No. 15 should bid for US$615 million. He is from the art broker of Mr. Bill Gates and his wife. Welcome to participate in the bidding..."
With Jefferson's voice, the auction hall became noisy again.
"Bill really stepped down and participated in the competition. This auction is really awesome. If Jeff Bezos stepped down to compete again, the top three richest people in the United States would all be together!"
"I'll go! Another super predator! Let's just go to bed and don't be embarrassed! How can we win when we compete with Bill and Warren for the same treasure? There's no chance at all!"
Seeing the end of Bill Gates’ art agent, the scene immediately erupted into lamentations.
Many buyers who were still struggling to hold on suddenly felt like deflated rubber balls, with most of their fighting spirit dissipated in an instant. Some were even ready to call it quits and withdraw from the competition.
In the eyes of others, I am a super rich man, with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars, which I will not be able to spend all in ten lifetimes.
But in my own eyes, these guys, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, and Jeff Bezos, are the real super rich, possessing untold wealth.
Competing with these guys is really demoralizing!
There are some people who do not believe in evil but still have high morale.
"Six hundred and thirty million dollars, Jefferson, our Chicago Museum lacks a treasure of sufficient importance. This Michelangelo's pinnacle work is very good, this is it!"
The director of the Chicago Museum shouted loudly, quoted the new price, and stared at the "Creation of Adam" on the display shelf, his eyes turned green!
As soon as this person finished speaking, before the auctioneer Jefferson could speak, someone suddenly said loudly:
“Treasure-level antique works of art are rare in that museum, not to mention Michelangelo’s pinnacle work. It is rare to encounter but not to seek, and it is rare to see it in a hundred years.
We at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York have also taken a fancy to this top-notch work of art and are determined to get it. I won’t be polite to you here, $640 million, Jefferson! "
Hearing this quotation, the scene was filled with exclamations again.
“The Metropolitan Museum has finally come out to compete. Almost all the famous museums in the United States are here. The scene is really spectacular!”
"There is no doubt that this auction will shock the world and go down in auction history forever! Michelangelo's "The Creation of Adam" and that guy Steven are the same, so enviable!"
As we speak, the bidding price for this painting "The Creation of Adam" has approached US$650 million.
At this time, Ye Tian couldn't help but become nervous, staring closely at the top-notch artwork on the display shelf, looking forward to the new quotation.
He knew very well what the US$650 million offer meant.
This is the reserve price he set for the auction. Once this price is exceeded, the "Creation of Adam" will be sold successfully and become the collection of someone else or a museum, and it will no longer have anything to do with him!
What you will get will be an astronomical amount of wealth, enough to drive you crazy.
At this point in the auction, the extremely astonishing price of 65 million US dollars is like a piece of blank paper, which can be pierced very easily without any difficulty.
The person who broke through the auction reserve price was none other than my old friend sitting not far away, MOMA curator Julian.
"Six hundred and fifty million dollars, Jefferson!"
While raising the sign to quote, Julian quickly turned his head to look at Ye Tian.
"Great! This is what I want!"
Ye Tian waved his fist slightly and cheered in a low voice.
At this moment, the smile on his face became brighter, and he relaxed a lot, leaning back on the chair easily, very comfortable.
The same goes for Betty sitting next to her, smiling like a flower and extremely excited!
This scene is undoubtedly what Julian wants to see the most!
At this time, he already understood that US$650 million was the auction reserve price set by Ye Tian. Although it was an astronomical figure, it was within expectations.
Next, we have to fight with all our strength.
Once it fails, the Michelangelo on the display stand will become someone else’s and will never have anything to do with MOMA!
Thinking of this, Julian's eyes suddenly turned red, and he was ready to risk his life!
