Soul Painter

400 million.

Still dollars.

It was too late for the news to spread widely.

It was too late for public opinion to be shocked again.

The time has come to April 18th.

All guests participating in this Christie's auction received the news that "Mr. Gao Fan's painting "Salvation" will be auctioned as scheduled."

Some people looked at the huge red congratulatory banner advertisement on the Chinese official website of Christie's inexplicably.

It said, "Congratulations to Mr. Gao Fan for the auction of four "Mask" paintings, which reached a transaction price of 400 million US dollars, and will officially start the "Salvation" auction tour. At 15:00 Hong Kong time on April 18, the whole world is looking forward to it." '

Looking at the content of this ad, many people fell into great doubts. They didn't know the cause and effect, they were just guessing, what kind of stuff needs to have 400 million US dollars as a prerequisite before the auction can start.

Is it necessary to unlock an achievement for co-authoring before the guests participating in the auction can be eligible to buy it?

Notice, just getting the qualification, not getting the painting?

What an amazing painting is this? What a proud bet!

But the whole market is spending real money to play with this painter.

This is outrageous.

But no matter how bizarre, facts are facts.

Waiting until 15:00 on the 18th, when the last special auction of "Arts of the 20th and 21st Century", also known as the "Finale Auction", is officially launched, not only the Hong Kong local auction house, but also the other three In the auction halls of this city, there is an atmosphere like the smoke of war.

When faced with the previous auction items, even the "Haystack", which was originally regarded as one of Monet's masterpieces as the finale, made all bidders less excited. As a result, the auction price of "Haystack" hit a new high , sold for US$130 million, which is another record for Impressionist painting auctions.

huh huh huh~

In the end, the price still made everyone applaud.

Chen Liangling was waiting for the auctioneer at the London auction house. After successfully dropping the hammer for Monet's "Haystacks", she calmed down and walked onto the auction stage. Originally, "Haystacks" was the last of Christie's spring auction. The finale, but because of the practice of the bet, another work became the finale of the finale.

On the auction stage, Chen Liangling looked at the venue.

She saw that the whole venue was also watching her.

Not only Xiangjiang Auction House, but at this moment, all the eyes of London, Paris and New York are on Chen Liangling.

The live video of the live auction was also broadcast live on the Internet, and was watched by hundreds of millions of collectors, art lovers, media reporters and passers-by.

Chen Liangling took a light breath, and she said: "The next thing we are going to auction is a "Mask" theme painting by Mr. Gao Fan, the founder of the Demon Sect. As the largest of the "Mask" theme paintings, its The painting is 1.2 by 1.8 meters, and the content of the creation is consistent with its theme, expressing the 'salvation' that human beings can obtain after experiencing all negative emotions. Some people say that this is a divine work..."

Following Chen Liangling's introduction, the painting "Redemption" was placed in front of the auction table by the staff. This oil painting depicted with a double-mask structure attracted everyone's attention under suitable lighting. As Chen Liangling said, it It is the pinnacle of superb craftsmanship, and it has a divinity that makes people respect.

Mr. Luc Villiers, who was sitting in the venue, involuntarily leaned forward, as if the magic power contained in this painting attracted his gaze.

Yes it is right.

A miraculous work that can save human sanity.

Luc Villiers understands art and has excellent art appreciation ability, but he still can't imagine how human beings use paintbrush to describe miracles that can restore reason.

The nine angels must get it.

...

In a century-old castle on the outskirts of Berlin, Germany, Duncan Vizsla, the leader of the gravediggers known as the 'Black Caesar', was shaking a glass of red wine in his hand. The live broadcast screen in front of him also reflected Christie's Spring Festival Gala. Taking pictures of the Xiangjiang meeting place, after seeing "Redemption" being taken out, he picked up his wine glass and gestured towards this work.

He believes that it is the authority that human beings have seized from the great beings.

GAO has accomplished a great thing.

...

CUBA Island.

nursing home.

Anthropologist Henri Talotap, as one of the few management members of STK with an A-level sequence, he and several other management members formed the Path Finder Units (Path Finder), referred to as PFU, PFU Is the executive head of the STK operation.

Now, this blond-haired anthropologist wearing small thick glasses is watching the live broadcast screen in front of him, and the little finger on his left hand is twitching nervously, which is his expression when he is excited.

"We need this painting as a treatment in the nursing home," said the blond nurse.

Beside the blond nurse, the black-haired nurse and the red-haired nurse nodded at the same time. Except for their different hair colors, the three of them had almost the same appearance and body.

...

Similarly, there were also eyes from the Brotherhood of Wipers and the South Thirteenth District, who gathered at the Xiangjiang auction at the same time.

These organizations from the dark world have a history of a hundred years, and they are not inferior to the longest-lived financial groups in human history. In the long process of development, they have worked with mystery, mastered superhuman power, and possessed amazing powers. Wealth, when these wealth are mobilized, will converge into a wave that stirs the world, and the focus of all the waves at this moment is the painting called "Redemption".

So the auction reached its climax in an instant.

After Chen Liangling shouted out the reserve price of 38 million US dollars, an offer from the London district of 110 million US dollars popped up on the screen behind her.

oh~

Shock spread in the auction house.

It's this oppressive bidding method again.

It seems to be announcing, get out of the way, this is not your game field.

But who is the protagonist of this game field and this auction?

Chen Liangling stared at the quotation of 110 million US dollars, hesitated for a second, and a new quotation was generated again, and the number 135 million appeared on the screen representing New York.

Three mouthfuls.

Only three price.

It surpassed the 121 million of the previous mask painting "Despair".

Previously, Monet's "Haystacks" reached a transaction price of 130 million US dollars after nearly 30 bids, but the final transaction price of this "Redemption", this miraculous "Redemption" will be How many? How much will it be?

Chen Liangling only felt that there was a surge of electricity in her body, and every cell and every inch of her skin was like an electrified electrode, shining brightly, making her so excited that her soul was trembling. The power of money is the glory of the pinnacle of life and career.

"135 million! An anonymous buyer in New York bid 135 million. Is there a higher bid?"

Luc Villiers held up the sign in his hand.

"150 million," he said.
