Lisko’s American Life

Li Ke and Zhang Li sat in the middle position. This position not only has a wide field of view, but also allows them to know everything that happened in the venue. Sitting next to him were naturally Hasel and his wife. Sitting with familiar people, I also felt that the feeling of embarrassment and embarrassment became less intense.

The starting price of Ayre's painting is 10,000 US dollars. Of course, this is only the starting price, and it is also used for charitable donations. The starting price of the other party's painting at any European auction is 500,000 pounds.

At the beginning, Lisko was afraid that the works of the other party would not be sold at a suitable price. You must know that for a painter, the important criterion for measuring your status is the value of your paintings.

At the same time, Ayre's behavior of turning herself into a charitable donation is not easy for the gallery responsible for selling her paintings to accept. For the gallery, if the auction price at the charity gala is very low, it does not meet the standard they require. Then Al's commercial value will also be greatly reduced.

And Lisko knew these things very well, so in order to avoid such embarrassing situations for his friends, he was not the only one who knew the goods. When the reserve price was called out, all the audience in the audience bid one after another. Quotations came one after another, quickly surpassing the price Ayer had obtained at the last painting auction.

Li Ke wanted to call twice to see if he could successfully win the painting, but he didn't expect that several other bidders had already made a real fire. You added 50,000 and I added 100,000 to compete. , so that he couldn't get in his mouth at all. I had no choice but to temporarily give up my thoughts, and at the same time send my best wishes to Al.

"It seems that this time your worth is going to soar again."

There is also a smile on the corner of Al's mouth. Although she is not short of money, not only is the family behind her rich and prominent, but now Haas is also a first-class rich man, so when she reaches her position, her pursuit of money becomes It's not that important anymore.

However, the price of a painting is a manifestation of a painter's status. Although she doesn't care about money anymore, she still has some thoughts and prying eyes on her current status as a professional painter.

Originally, I just simply participated in a charity gala and auctioned off my random works, but I didn't expect that there would be unexpected surprises. This is really another village.

After the previous rounds of auctions, Zhang Li gradually figured out the way of this kind of party, so he became eager to try it. The purpose of the two of them coming to this banquet today is to support Ms. Laurie on the one hand. The second is to make the voice of the Li Family Charity Fund. When the status and property reach a certain level, giving back to the society is a basic requirement. And with the protective coat of charity, the public has a high degree of tolerance for you.

"If you have something you like, you can try to bid for it. It's okay to bid boldly. Our family is still quite rich."

Seeing Zhang Li's actions, Li Ke understood what Zhang Li was thinking, and encouraged him. No matter what, Zhang Li had to take this crucial step today. No matter how much he taught him, he might as well let her do it himself. , and each year the charitable foundation has a limited standard, and a certain amount of assets must be spent on charitable causes.

Therefore, solving part of the money that must be spent can be regarded as helping Zhang Li in his next work.

Encouraged by Lisko, Zhang Li also became bolder. He eagerly picked up the brand, ready to see something he likes, and immediately bid for it. Women are very good at things like shopping. Blessed with nature, possessing first-class talent.

Although the auction is different from the way of buying things in the mall, the satisfaction is the same. In addition, not only get the things you like, but also make your own efforts for charity , and it can be said that they complement each other.

The above items were auctioned off one by one, but there was nothing that caught Zhang Li's eyes. Most of them were collected by people from all walks of life, such as dinosaur fossils, rare baseball cards in the United States, and There is a football basketball signed by which star, as well as some rare Indian antiques.

For Zhang Li, a native of China, she is not interested in any of these things. On the one hand, I don't understand where the preciousness of these things is. Secondly, she doesn't have much interest in these cultures, so she has always been a little helpless, wanting to spend money but not being able to buy what she wants.

Finally, the later the auction, the higher the value of the items. Except for the painting by Ayer at the beginning, the value of the rest of the items is also around 100,000 US dollars. Looking at these wealthy and wealthy people in the audience, their eyes showed disinterest or fatigue, and the auctioneer also knew that this auction should enter the next process.

"Okay, now comes the main event. First of all, we would like to thank Sir Will for providing the auction items, and thank you for your efforts for charity."

Hearing the name that came out of the auctioneer's mouth, everyone in the venue seemed to be in high spirits. Sir Will is a celebrity in the United States. His previous occupation was a historical research scientist. At the same time, because of his outstanding academic performance , and has been honored by the Queen of England. Although it is the lowest rank of jazz, in the eyes of these rude Americans who have no heritage, they are also first-class celebrities.

The other party was also an antique collector before, and the things in his house were usually very precious, so everyone knew that the next thing was very expensive, so naturally some strong interest arose.

"This is a comic work with a very small space, only 1000mm*500mm. The content is the most famous character in DC, the clown. This painting was drawn by Bob Kane, the creator of the clown himself."

This painting made Lisko a little interested. After the global release of The Dark Knight directed by Nolan a few years ago, the role of the clown has regained its brilliance and vitality.

Thanks to Heath Ledger's superb interpretation, many people recognized this dark character who is not well-known in DC comics for the first time. At the same time, it gave this role a new meaning, and the clown has also become the object of worship of many young people.

And Bob Kane is the cartoonist who created the character of the clown. After he passed away in 1998, there are very few personal drawings left. In general, the price of this cartoon is very difficult to define. People who like it may spend a lot of money to get it, and people who don't like it may not be interested.
