Chapter 125: The Astronomical Auction That Shocked The World! (3Rd Update!)
For this summer auction, Christie's has already made sufficient preparations.
As early as more than three months ago, Christie's was promoting this auction, and the main focus was a few fine antiques from **!
In addition, there are several works from the great masters of the nineteenth century!
Therefore, a long time ago, many wealthy people decided to come to this auction.
However, the appearance of that huge pink diamond caused the number of rich people who came to participate to increase by more than three times.
Someone ridiculed that this was the auction with the largest number of rich people since the auction was born, so that Christie’s had to temporarily change the venue, moved the auction venue to a basketball stadium, and urgently contacted the security company to send hundreds of guards!
After all, if someone does something at such an auction, then Christie's will basically bid farewell to the wealthy circle!
Of course, under great pressure, Christie's also understands that this is a huge opportunity!
Once this auction is a complete success, they will definitely surpass Sotheby's and become the number one auction in the world!
They are so confident about it!
However, as soon as the auction started, the unsold auctions of several lots poured cold water on 373's face!
While feeling cold, they are also very wronged.
As the opening lot, they are all works of art that have attracted much attention before, so there is no reason why they will pass the auction!
You know, failing to sell is a very serious mistake for an auction house!
To measure the success of an auction house, the turnover rate is the biggest indicator. Once the number of failed auctions increases, the customers who send auctions will question you. Over time, no one is willing to put the collection on your platform for auction!
Faced with this situation, the auction staff immediately communicated with the rich people on the scene, and after asking, they found out that the thoughts of all the rich people had already fallen on the giant pink talk!
Such an unprecedented huge diamond, everyone naturally hopes to have it in their pockets!
With this kind of mentality, they will naturally not disperse the funds in their hands, which led to the unsold auction of those works of art!
After learning about the crude oil of the matter, all the top executives of Christie's suddenly couldn't laugh or cry!
Does this count as lifting a diamond and hitting (cefc) on his own foot?
But now that they knew the reason, Christie's immediately changed the order of the lots, and took out the huge pink diamond that was originally the finale in advance, and put it up for auction!
When the staff pushed the giant pink diamond onto the display stand and announced that the giant pink diamond would be auctioned next, the atmosphere in the audience instantly ignited to the extreme, and the eyes of those rich women who had been waiting for a long time were even brighter, as if they wanted to stuff this giant pink diamond into their bodies!
Before the auction, the auctioneer introduced the diamond.
"According to the identification of this diamond by our auction house, the weight of this diamond is 4326.3 carats! The color is pink! The cut ratio is perfect!"
"Finally!" the auctioneer paused, and said, "The clarity of this diamond is ----- FL grade! The clarity grade is the highest! Even if you use a ten-fold magnifying glass, you can't find any impurities or blemishes inside. It can be called flawless!"
As soon as the auctioneer said these words, the eyes of the countless rich people present, especially the female rich people, radiated an incomparably fiery light!
You know, even the so-called flawless African Star, its clarity is only the IF grade of the second grade!
And now, the huge pink diamond in front of him has actually reached the highest level of FL!
Unprecedented weight and such amazing clarity, plus a flawless cut and a rare pink color!
This pink diamond has become the most ideal dream lover in the hearts of all the rich women at the scene!
And for those rich men, if they can get such a diamond, they can open up a lot of contacts!
"I must get it!" Such a thought popped up in countless people's minds.
This also determines the intensity of this auction!
"Then now, I announce that the bidding for this huge pink diamond will begin!"
"Twenty million dollars!" As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone raised the bidding board and said twenty million dollars!
It's just that such a asking price didn't scare anyone at all!
"30 million US dollars!" Someone raised 10 million dollars immediately!
"Forty million!"
"Sixty million......"
In less than a minute, the bidding price was called up to 100 million!
And this, this is just the beginning!
At this time, many rich people have not yet made a move.
Fifteen minutes later, the price of the pink diamond was called up to 200 million US dollars, and at this time, the number of bidders continued to decrease!
"500 million U.S. dollars!" When someone shouted out this number, the scene was instantly quiet!
"That... seems to be the Lionheart Duchess of France." Someone muttered softly.
The Duke of Lionheart is the only noble in France who still holds the title and fame of duke, and the wealth he possesses is naturally beyond the imagination of the world!
Five hundred million dollars is nothing to the Duke of Lionheart!
"Six hundred million dollars!" Just then, another female voice sounded in the venue.
Everyone follows the sound!
"This...... seems to be a noble in New Rome......"
"Eight hundred million!" The third one came from a male voice.
When everyone sees the familiar white headscarf, they know that this is a local tyrant from the Middle East!
At this moment, this diamond auction seems to have become a contest between the world's top rich people!
As they raised the price again and again, the price of this diamond also rose wave after wave!
1 billion, 1.3 billion, 1.5 billion.....
After another 20 minutes, this huge pink diamond has been called for 2 billion US dollars!
At this point, there are only three people left to participate in the auction!
One is the prince of the Middle East, the other is the Duchess of the Lionheart, and the other is an unremarkable man of unknown origin!
After another ten minutes of fierce bidding, this huge pink diamond was finally acquired by that unremarkable man with unknown origin at a price of 2.5 billion US dollars!
Two and a half billion dollars!
The moment the auctioneer dropped the hammer, the audience fell silent!
A few minutes later, the news was spread on the Internet, instantly causing a sensation all over the world!.
