"$90,000, Claude"
Xiao Ran raised the bidding sign again, and raised the price by US$10,000 at once, directly from US$80,000 to US$90,000.
"Wow!"
There was a sound of exclamation at the scene, and everyone turned to look at Xiao Ran again.
"Where does this Chinese guy get his money from? It seems like he will never be able to spend it all."
"It's so crazy that he dares to raise the price so crazily for such a Cubist painting of unknown origin!"
While marveling, many people looked at the Cubist oil painting again, trying to recall the scene when they admired the oil painting before.
Could that oil painting be the work of a certain Cubist master? That's why this Chinese boy is so crazy!
But no matter how hard they tried, they still found no new discoveries, and no shadow of the master of art could be seen.
When they stood in front of the oil painting before, they couldn't see anything interesting about it.
At this time, what new discoveries can be made by just relying on memories?
"This kid is so crazy. Why didn't I realize before that this guy is a second-generation rich man with a lot of money in his pocket!"
Sylvia said with emotion, her tone a little bitter.
"When you encounter such a crazy competitor, you can only accept it as bad luck."
"Quit! This far exceeds our quotation limit!"
Garcia whispered helplessly.
Sylvia paused for a moment, then nodded and silently withdrew from the competition.
Then, she turned to look at Xiao Ran who was smiling, with a hint of unwillingness in her eyes.
She knew that this Cubist oil painting was of high quality. Although she was not sure which artist it was, it was definitely worth a little money and had good collection value.
It’s a pity that I have more than enough ambition but not enough energy!
Like Sylvia and the others, there were several other professional treasure hunters who shook their heads and quit the competition.
They might still have room to spare and a little ammunition.
But seeing Xiao Ran's determination to win, they understood that they had no chance of winning this oil painting.
Continuing to compete with others is just a waste of time and emotions, and is of no use.
With these guys withdrawing, there were only three buyers left competing for the painting.
They are Xiao Ran, Kevin, and the unfathomable old Jewish lady.
Like everyone else, Kevin and the old Jewish lady also looked back at Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded and said hello, not impolite, but full of confidence.
While talking, Claude gave a new quote, $91,000.
This time it was Kevin who raised the sign to answer the price, but did not take the initiative to raise the price.
Immediately afterwards, the old Jewish lady accepted another offer of $92,000.
It's my turn!
Xiao Ran raised his hand and raised the bidding number, loudly shouting out the new quotation.
"One Hundred Thousand Dollars"
Before he finished speaking, there was an exclamation of exclamation again.
"What an unreasonable bastard. Where did he come from?"
Kevin cursed helplessly, then shook his head and quit the competition.
He looked back at Xiao Ran again, his eyes full of dissatisfaction.
Xiao Ran nodded politely, always with a bright smile on his face.
Seeing Kevin's exit, there was a small commotion at the scene.
"I'll go! This crazy guy actually fought off the big crocodile Kevin."
"Isn't this kid just going to make a name for himself? Maybe he doesn't care whether he loses or gains?"
"It's really possible. After this auction, this guy's name will definitely spread throughout the industry!"
While these professional treasure hunters were talking about it, the old lady had raised her bidding sign again and accepted the offer of US$102,000.
When the bidding was held, the old lady acted very calmly.
The top art dealer sitting next to her, on the other hand, looked back at Xiao Ran and seemed unfriendly.
Xiao Ran nodded to the other party with a smile on his face, and raised his bidding number unceremoniously.
"$110,000, Claude"
Seeing Xiao Ran being so determined and disrespectful, the art dealer couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
At this stall, the old lady raised her bidding sign again.
After such back and forth, in just a few rounds, the price of this oil painting has reached US$180,000.
When Xiao Ran shouted out the price, everyone at the scene shook their heads helplessly.
"Fake! This kid must be crazy and has completely lost his mind!"
"Isn't he just a prodigal? With so much money, wouldn't it be nice to replace that broken car quickly?"
Even the top art dealer was very helpless.
In Xiao Ran's live broadcast room, the pot was already boiling.
"Play it big, Xiao Ran, don't make mistakes and end up smashing it in your hand!"
"More than one million yuan is enough to buy a famous painting, so I'd better keep it!"
Xiao Ran remained calm and responded in a low voice:
"To be honest, when I admired this oil painting just now, I felt very good. I thought it was a top-notch work of art with high value!"
"I have some judgments of my own. That's why I dare to bid like this, not just because of Elaine's suggestion!"
"As for what my judgment is, I will explain it later."
After hearing his words, the guys in the live broadcast room suddenly became more curious.
Before they could ask, the old Jewish lady had already accepted the offer of $182,000.
Without any hesitation, Xiao Ran directly raised the bidding sign and continued to increase the price.
"Twenty Thousand Dollars"
Instead of adding tens of thousands of dollars, he raised eighteen thousand dollars at once.
Not surprisingly, this move once again caused a stir.
"This guy is getting more and more crazy. It's hard to imagine how much money he has."
"Is it possible that this guy has reached the end of his madness? Or is he digging a hole for buyer No. 2?"
"It's really possible. I heard that this kid has tricked that idiot Lyon before."
At this time, Claude has made a new offer, $203,000.
Just as the old Jewish lady was about to raise her sign, the top art dealer suddenly leaned into the old lady's ear and whispered a few words with a gloomy face.
The old lady paused, seemed to think for a moment, and then put down the bidding number plate.
At the same time, she shook her head slightly at Claude.
The meaning of this action is obvious, announcing its withdrawal from the competition.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ran clenched his fist hard and almost cheered.
Elaine, who was sitting next to him, let out a sigh of relief, and a joyful look appeared on his face.
At this point, there is no need to hide it anymore.
Even if someone noticed that something was wrong, they probably wouldn't be able to stop him halfway and jump out to compete with Xiao Ran.
How many people can come up with more than 200,000 US dollars in cash? Absolutely one of the few!
After announcing her withdrawal from the competition, the old lady looked back at Xiao Ran, smiled and nodded.
Xiao Ran quickly cleared up his expression and nodded politely to the other party.
He could see very clearly that if the art dealer hadn't been in trouble, this old Jewish lady would have been fighting with him forever!
In a fight to the end, the winner must be this unfathomable old lady.
Unfortunately, she hired a blind art agent and missed out on a valuable top-notch piece of art.
When the true origin and value of this oil painting are revealed, the art dealer will definitely be discredited.
By then, it is estimated that no rich man will be willing to pay a high price to hire him as an art agent!
"boom"
After asking three times in succession, and seeing that no one responded, Claude immediately struck the auction hammer, and the hammer fell to seal the deal.
"The transaction was completed at US$200,000. Congratulations to buyer No. 106 for successfully acquiring this Cubist oil painting."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ran stood up suddenly and waved his fist vigorously.
"Done, great!"
Elaine no longer suppressed her emotions and cheered excitedly.
Not only that, she also gave Xiao Ran a warm hug.
Seeing this scene, many people felt a little stunned.
Is this oil painting really a top-notch work of art? Did you miss a treasure?
The singles at the scene and in the live broadcast room looked at Xiao Ran and Yi Lian hugging each other with jealousy.
"Nothing better than a beast, let go of that beauty!"
