Become a Big Brother’s Favorite After Marriage

Chapter 344: Chandelier effect (2 more)

After the explanation, the auctioneer turned off the demo video.

"Now, everyone has finished watching this famous painting of the national treasure level, then we will officially start today’s auction. Mr. Wang Wei’s "Autumn Living in the Mountains", the starting price is one million, and the plaque is one hundred thousand each time. unit……"

The small golden hammer in the hands of the auctioneer banged heavily on the red sandalwood table. With a "boom", it was regarded as the prelude to today's auction.

As soon as the auctioneer yelled to begin, someone raised a placard below.

Qiao Ansheng was at ease.

Soon the price was raised to two million by the rising tide.

"Mr. Qiao, it's already two million. Don't we still bid for the price?"

Xiao Zhang looked at the increase in the amount on the screen with trepidation, and she pulled Qiao Ansheng's sleeve, her face full of astonishment.

She stuck out her tongue, raised her fingers, and counted the zeros behind the two million in ten million: "One painting, two million were taken, my goodness, is this the happiness of the rich?" ?"

Qiao Ansheng glanced back at the people who frequently raised placards. She looked calm, just smiled without saying a word, lowered her head to continue to look at the picture album in her hand.

"Mr. Qiao, why don't you be in a hurry? The price has risen too fast, it's so expensive..."

Qiao Ansheng turned a page of the picture album casually, and said leisurely: "The price is still early, and now the entire auction venue is still in the chandelier effect."

"What is the chandelier effect?"

Qiao Ansheng turned her head and glanced at a small Zhang who was thirsty for knowledge. She closed the album in her hand and explained to her patiently: "The chandelier effect is an unspoken rule in the auction house. The atmosphere on the scene is even stronger. The auctioneer will pretend that someone is bidding in the auction hall in the early stage. In fact..."

Qiao Ansheng looked up at the crystal lamp with complicated streamers hanging high above his head.

"Many of the people who bid now are nurseries, or there is no one bidding at all. The auctioneer is just pointing to the chandeliers above us..."

Qiao Ansheng paused, her tone was not hurried or slow, and when she came leisurely, there was a convincing meaning.

"Only dozens of people are actually bidding at an auction, and none of them has yet to bid."

Xiao Zhang's face was unclear and stern, and the look in Qiao Ansheng's eyes changed. She put her hands on her chest, her eyes almost turning into shining stars.

"Wow, President Joe, how do you know so much! You are so amazing!"

At this moment, the auctioneer's mood suddenly rose, and the excited voice came through the microphone.

"Oh my god, a gentleman bid three million!"

Qiao Ansheng laughed and patted Xiao Zhang, who was almost stunned next to him: "Look, this is the real beginning..."

After 3.5 million, the number of placards was significantly reduced. After the auctioneer shouted 2.5 million twice in a row, someone reluctantly raised the placard.

"Three million six hundred thousand twice!"

Qiao Ansheng took the wooden sign on the side table and held it up.

"Bid No. 45! 3.7 million! Is there anything higher than this price! 3.7 million! One time!"

The auctioneer was holding the golden hammer, the expression on his face was both excited and nervous, his eyes scanned the people below the stage, and his impassioned tone stimulated the nerves of the buyers.

"Three million seven million twice! Is there anything higher?"

At this time, another sign was raised in the rear.

The auctioneer immediately made a loud voice again: "There is another bid! 3.8 million!"

Xiao Zhang was even more nervous than the auctioneer. He clasped his hands tightly on the armrest of the chair and glanced at Qiao Ansheng, only to see that she was still calm and composed.

Finally, when the price was about to rise, Qiao Ansheng held up the sign in his hand: "Four million."

The red lips vomited a price that was enough to make the auctioneer more fanatical.

Apart from the high voice of the auctioneer, there was a lot of silence in the venue.

Then everyone's eyes fell on Qiao Ansheng.

Last year, another Wang Wei painting was sold for 4.5 million yuan. Seeing that it has gradually approached last year's price, many buyers began to think carefully.

Qiao Ansheng didn't realize it, but just sat there stiffly, the half of the soft white neck exposed by the collar, elegant and slender like a swan neck.

The people sitting behind her could only see her back, and they couldn't help but began to guess the identity of the bidder.

"Good! Four million at a time!"

Sitting in the back row, Qiao Mengxi clutched the number plate tightly. Through the heavy figures in the front row, she could only see Qiao Ansheng from the back.

The people around her were talking in low voices.

"Well, what is the background of No. 45, the shot is so lavish!"

"I don't know! Anyway, the painting is worth 4 million, and there should be no one to increase the price. It is estimated that it will be No. 45 in the end..."

Qiao Mengxi heard those people's comments, and the roots of her teeth were about to bite.

Why can she bid so high effortlessly and get the attention of the audience!

Qiao Mengxi can't compare her to her in the end!

Envy and anger surged, causing the thread in Qiao Mengxi's brain to snap and break.

When she reacted, the number plate in her hand had been raised high like a flag that declared war...

The man sitting next to her reacted and yelled in disbelief, "Are you crazy?"

Qiao Mengxi turned a deaf ear.

Almost at the moment when she held up the sign, the auctioneer was so excited as a kick that was about to explode, pointed this way, and the sound was a little broken.

"Four hundred and one hundred thousand!"

This time the audience was silent again, and they all followed Qiao Mengxi's gaze.

Qiao Ansheng was about to hear the auctioneer's final decision, but suddenly there were sudden changes. She frowned and looked back with the people around her.

Qiao Mengxi was in the center of her gaze all at once.

The unspeakable envy in those eyes made her feel a lot more balanced, and even the anger was dispelled, the corners of her mouth rose, and she really enjoyed the feeling of being watched by the public.

Her vanity burst in an instant, and even the angry gaze of the man next to her could be ignored.

Qiao Ansheng tilted his head, and finally saw Qiao Mengxi's triumphant look in the crowd.

In fact, in the later stage of the auction, most people are holding a wait-and-see attitude as the price rises, and the price increase is slow.

And she shouted directly from 3.8 million to 4 million, just to let other people have the illusion that she was bound to win, so that she would stop bidding.

She can also use a lower price to take pictures of what she wants.

Who knows, a Cheng Yaojin was killed halfway through.
