"Hmph! Then I don't care. Anyway, I'll tell them as you teach. If you embarrass me at that time...hehe..."
Helen's appearance of smiling but not smiling really made Jin Muchen feel a chill in her stomach. Damn, when did I teach you this?
I just said my thoughts. You have to show off to others. Why do you think this is on my head?
But he also knew that being with women was not reasonable, so he chose to shut up very smartly.
At this moment, the auctioneer on the stage also started the next round of auctions. The auction mode arranged by the gallery was quite attentive.
I just took a photo of a very popular Jeffrey's work, and immediately followed up with an Anthony Wise's work, works of different styles, can just create an extraordinary visual impact.
"Uh... Helen, you see that Anthony's paintings have started auctioning. You see if you let go, or you will wait for a while and you will not have the chance to raise your hand."
Helen turned her head, looked at him with a smile, and then let go of her right hand surrounding him.
Jin Muchen immediately shook his arm. Damn it, I really didn't realize that this little girl is so strong, it seems that she has exercised a lot!
He didn't dare to roll up his sleeves to see, but he was sure that the inside of his left forearm must have been pinched.
"Hehe, the touch feels good. It seems that carrying a big bag in the distribution center is still quite exercising?"
Helen also stretched out her two fingers of her right hand and made a similar move in front of Jin Muchen. Jin Muchen's body trembled when she saw it.
"But you better pray that your judgment is accurate, hehe, or..."
Jin Muchen's body involuntarily shrank back. Damn, if I had known this, I would definitely not agree to her invitation.
Judy and Maria, who were standing aside, were covering their mouths and laughing. It was so interesting to see these two live treasures flirting together.
"The work taken below is a work by Anthony Wise, a new realistic painter, "Alice in the Dusk", which was created by Anthony in July last year. The work is four feet long and two feet wide, with a style of painting..."
The auctioneer was vigorously introducing Anthony's painting on the stage. Jin Muchen and Helen had also seen it in the gallery before.
Inside this painting is a picture of a girl wearing white gauze sitting under a bench at dusk. The picture feels very full, and the light and color are used very well.
Just now, Jin Muchen gave the highest evaluation of this painting, and the realistic color of this painting is very prominent. If you don’t see the edges and corners of the picture, you can see it from a distance. It’s really hard to tell whether it is an oil painting or an enlarged photo.
If you stare at the girl in the picture for a long time, you can even understand the meaning of the invitation in her eyes. Of course, although the model in this painting is wearing a white gauze skirt and lace stockings, the style is of course the traditional Western oil painting style. Through the white gauze, you can even see the things inside her skirt...
This painting is really easy to attract imagination and has a lot of experience. In Jin Muchen's opinion, it is very suitable for hanging on the opposite side of the bedroom bed of the rich.
After watching it for a long time and having more associations, it is easy to play a role in aphrodisiac...
"The starting price of this painting is 50,000 US dollars, each time it is 2,000 US dollars. It's OK to start bidding now..."
As expected, it is not difficult to see from the auctioneer's quotes that the paintings of realistic painters are indeed not as popular as works of impressionist painters, even if Jeffrey's paintings are not pure impressionist.
After the auctioneer announced that the auction began, there were even fewer art lovers who were interested in raising signs to participate in the auction. It seems that everyone has really focused their energy on that Jeffrey. For this Anthony, hehe, I'm sorry, although your paintings are also amazing, who made him too realistic?
It can be said that most of the people who come here don’t know much about oil painting, and most of them can only be called art lovers or art investors.
Their quality of oil paintings is mainly focused on the style of oil paintings, the potential of the painters, and their popularity. As for the true quality of the work, they are mostly half a bucket of water.
The auctioneer called out several times, but no one below wanted to raise the sign.
Originally, Helen was a little moved by what Jin Muchen said, and wanted to buy the painting, but after waiting for a while, no one was willing to bid for the painting, so she couldn't help but hesitate.
The auctioneer on the stage said several times again, praising the benefits of this painting, but no one was willing to bid. Finally, when he was helpless to announce that the painting was unsuccessful, one hand suddenly raised.
"Who is willing to pay 52,000 US dollars, and is there anyone willing to raise the price?"
Everyone present turned their heads and wanted to see which guy with his head stuck by the door would buy such an oil painting similar to the photo.
As a result, everyone saw a somewhat strange Asian face, and Jin Muchen was calm and composed at that time. If you don’t want to buy it, I’ll buy it.
"......52,000 US dollars for the third time, the deal was completed!"
The auctioneer spoke very fast in front of the first two times, as if he was afraid that Jin Muchen would regret it. Before he even understood what was going on, he finished the deal.
The people around him whispered, of course they were not good things, they completely regarded Jin Muchen as the mobile wallet from China.
Casey and Andy, who were standing in front, also gave him contemptuous and sarcastic gazes, but Jin Muchen didn't mind. It seemed that it was not enough to get a painting. Since you don't want to buy it, I'm buying a few more later.
................
"Are you crazy? You have already bought several pairs? Is it a bit of a gamble to buy this?"
Even Helen, who was standing next to Jin Muchen, was stunned by what happened next. As long as Jeffrey's paintings were carried up, they would be immediately scrambled by art lovers in the audience.
As long as Anthony's paintings are taken up, they will be unwilling to be watched. However, whenever the auctioneer announces that they will fail to sell, Jin Muchen will raise his hand to take down the painting, and no one will compete with him at all.
In just over half an hour, he had won five paintings by Anthony in succession, all of which were large in size, but the base price was not high, which started at 50,000 to 80,000 US dollars, and the final transaction price was only 2,000 US dollars higher than the base price.
Although it seems that you don’t spend much money, you don’t buy the ones you are sought after, but instead buy a work that is not popular among people. This seems really stupid.
Helen couldn't help but speak out and wants to stop Jin Muchen from coming, but Jin Muchen smiled slightly at this time.
"Anyway, you don't believe what I said, so don't stop me from making money, okay? I can tell you clearly that this is a rare opportunity to make money. If I missed this time, I don't know when I will wait next time?"
"Why are you so confident?"
Helen's big blue eyes were full of questions. The longer she stayed with Jin Muchen, the less she could figure out what this guy was thinking about.
Jin Muchen's eyes were focused on Anthony standing next to the stage. Although this guy was facing everyone, his eyes were floating where he was, and he was obviously wandering outside the sky.
His originally pale face flew up at this time, and it seemed that he was so excited after sucking white face.
But at this time, no one noticed that the right hand that he drooped was slightly twitching, and the muscles on his face that he would twitch from time to time. It seemed that this guy was in his life.
It is precisely because of this that he dared to bet on the paintings this guy knows, and would be invited by the American Tour Art Exhibition first and be collected by the National Gallery of the United States.
"You have to know that the truth is often only in the hands of a few people..."
Jin Muchen looked at the front of the stage, and Helen followed his gaze, but could not see anything. After all, she did not have the good look as good as Jin Muchen.
However, his vague attitude made her feel unfathomable about Jin Muchen.
Could it be that what this guy said is true? This Anthony's painting will be one step ahead of Jeffrey and become the National Gallery's collection?
After having such an idea, Helen couldn't stop thinking. When the next Anthony's work was brought up, the auctioneer had just announced the low price and bidding standards and announced the auction, she was the first to raise her hand...
Her actions surprised everyone present, while Jin Muchen smiled slightly and did not choose to bid for her.
He has already won five paintings by Anthony, and they are all of the largest and most exquisitely-quality paintings. The remaining paintings are not big in size. Compared with the few paintings he bought, it can only be said to be average. He is still sufficient tonight.
The following charity auction gradually changed a little. If Jin Muchen was an unknown person, then Helen was not an ordinary person. Most of the people who came here to participate in the auction knew her.
When she first bought an Anthony painting, everyone began to think that she was just for fun, but after she took three Anthony paintings in a row, everyone felt that something was wrong here?
Could it be that Helen received any news? Their family is a media person and has always been well-informed. She is shopping at this time, so there must be some reason why Anthony's paintings are worthy of bidding... (To be continued.) xh118
