Chapter 670: Selling crazy (1/2)
The 30 people who won the prize were scattered in all corners of the venue. The abalone's scented scent was also scattered in the venue. Those who did not draw were very envious and watched the winners in the taste of the best abalone. Every one of them is itchy.
Even the rich people in the VIP area, after tasting the abalone, nodded frequently, and from time to time whispered a few words with the neighbors.
Judging from their expressions, these billionaires are obviously very tempted by the best abalone provided by Taoyuan.
Not to mention that almost all of these abalones have reached the standard of the best abalone, but the quality of the abalone itself, and these rich people feel very unexpected, completely beyond their imagination.
The abalone's meat is very tender, and at the same time with a hint of toughness, it is very chewy, its taste is quite delicious, under the Michelin-starred chef's cooking, not only does not have the slightest smell, but also with a The special fragrance of the stock makes this impression of all the people who have tasted it today.
In fact, this is not the skill of Liu’s chef, but these abalones grow in the space of the spiritual map. They absorb the rich aura in the space all day long, and the space sea water is also many times purer than the outer sea environment, so the meat quality is very Pure, even ordinary chefs do not have too much astringency.
Of course, whether you think that the chef of Liu is good, or the quality of the abalone of Taoyuan Company is superb, in general, this warm-up event arranged by Feng Wei is a hit.
The atmosphere of the audience was all over the place, and the guests who were willing to compete were eager to try one by one. Many of the rich people in the VIP area also showed their expressions of interest.
There are not a lot of abalone in each small dish. Feng Wei saw that everyone had already eaten almost on the stage, so he smiled and said: ”I believe that everyone has a very intuitive view of the best abalone that our Taoyuan company is going to auction today. Knowing, we will gossip less and talk directly to the auction!”
Speaking of this, Feng Wei made an invitation gesture and said with a smile: ”I will hand over the stage to Mr. Lu Zhongguang, the chief auctioneer of Hengfeng Auction House! Everyone has applause!”
There was a round of applause from the audience.
Lu Zhongguang is also a small name on Hong Kong Island, especially in the auction industry. He is the chief auctioneer of Hengfeng Auctions and one of the executive directors of Hengfeng Auctions. He usually only has very important auctions. I will personally preside over it. This detail also reflects the importance that Hengfeng Group attaches to this auction.
Lu Zhongguang wore a slim black suit and a festive red tie. His hair was smeared with oil on his hair. His big back was meticulous, and his feet were wearing black shoes with bright oil. He took a brisk walk and almost ran to the center of the stage.
Lu Zhongguang first turned to Feng Wei and then picked up the microphone and said: ”Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the abalone auction jointly organized by Hengfeng Group and Taoyuan Company. I am today's auctioneer Lu Zhongguang!”
”It is difficult to buy two abalones. It is well known that it is very difficult for abalone to raise the standard of two abalones, and the risk is very large. Therefore, the big abalone that has always reached this specification is very rare. It can be said that it is difficult to find a thousand abalone. Even some people regard the two heads as a heirloom!” Lu Zhongguang said with his very distinctive, magnetic voice. ”The two heads are so rare, let alone a bow? And the best we auction today.” Most of the abalones have exceeded the standard of abalone. It is absolutely unique to auction so many abalones in the history of Hong Kong Island!”
Speaking of this, Lu Zhongguang's volume has begun to increase, and the voice is full of appeal: ”This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Friends who love this way should never miss the opportunity to meet this demand. Maybe you are today. A hesitation will continue to regret in the days to come...”
After that, Lu Zhongguang picked up the auction and knocked it. He smiled and said: ”We have already had an in-depth and intuitive understanding of the best abalone to be auctioned this time. Then we will go directly to the topic!”
“The first batch of abalone to be auctioned is three!” Lu Zhongguang said with a reminder card in his hand. “The three abalones, like the two abalones that you just tasted, are all a dozen grams. The standard of abalone, if measured by the standard of two abalones, is far beyond!”
“The weight of the three abalones is 599 grams, 592 grams and 589 grams respectively!” Lu Zhongguang glanced at the cue card.
After hearing the figures, the guests and reporters in the audience involuntarily issued an amazement, and some people issued a voice of regret.
The standard of abalone and two abalone is measured by a small abalone of 1 Simajin. If the weight of an abalone reaches or exceeds 1 Simajin, then there is no doubt that this is a Bao, and the two abalones are The weight of two abalones reaches or exceeds 1 Simajin, that is to say, the abalone with a weight of less than half Simajin and less than Simajin is the two abalones.
The unit of measurement of Simajin is heavier than the weight of our general sense. One kilogram is 500 grams, and one Simajin is about 79 grams.
In other words, the standard for two abalones is that the weight of a single abalone reaches or exceeds 4 grams.
The weight of these three abalones is almost 600 grams. The heaviest one is only about 5 grams. It is a Simajin. This is no different from a Bao. The other two are very poor.
But because of the gap between a few grams and a dozen grams, strictly speaking, it can only be regarded as two abalones with two heads, which are much worse in value.
Lu Zhongguang smiled and announced: ”A batch of three abalone auctions, the top three bidders get the lot, the highest bidder takes the heaviest one, and so on! Of course, if you really like these three abalones You can also bid multiple times. If all the prices you have placed are in the top three, then congratulations, these three abalones will be taken by you alone!”
”I believe everyone is very clear about the rules of this first batch of auctions, then we will start the official auction!” Lu Zhongguang said, ”The first three abalones, starting price of 800,000 Hong Kong dollars, each increase of not less than 10,000 Hong Kong dollar, please bid below!”
”Mr. 214 offered HK$820,000!”
”Mr. 186 offered HK$830,000!”
“Ms. Chen of the VIP area bids twice, respectively, at HK$880,000 and HK$900,000! It seems that Ms. Chen is also very interested in this batch of best abalone! Is there still higher?”
”Ms. 39 is bidding HK$910,000! Your vision is very good! Guests, chances are rare, don't hesitate!”
At the beginning of the auction, everyone's bid was very enthusiastic, and Lu Zhongguang also changed the gentle temperament, the tone of voice became full of passion, the tone was very high, and even with a little hoarseness.
He is an experienced auctioneer who knows how to mobilize everyone's emotions and inspire everyone's bidding.
Of course, in fact, he does not need to deliberately mobilize emotions, and the guest bid is quite positive.
Because most people are not really rich, there are many middle class or small wealth homes, as well as some seafood restaurants, seafood shop owners are also coming.
These people have limited financial resources. They are very clear that these three abalones were shot according to the prices of the two abalones. In fact, regardless of the quality or weight, they are very close to abalone, and the price is very high.
In addition, today's super rich have come to a dozen, the 30 people in the VIP area have the poorest of more than 10 billion worth of net worth, after the auction of a Bao, once the rich people in the VIP area shot, other ordinary people Basically it is impossible to compete with them.
And as the auction proceeds, the price will definitely get higher and higher.
Because the number of abalone is getting less and less, and the weight is also increasing, the price will inevitably rise.
Therefore, many people in the ordinary district are looking for opportunities to grasp the front.
However, when most people hold such an idea, the price is not destined to be too low.
Soon the highest price broke through one million Hong Kong dollars, and the third-ranked price also came to 960,000 Hong Kong dollars.
