Chapter 198 No upper limit
"Does Yan Fuguang know that you are so poisonous? No, no, I have to tell her that she must stay away from such a poisonous person like you!"
Ji Yingzhou finally looked up: "Don't you call me sister Xiaoguang?"
"You, you, you..." Zhao Yige covered his chest, "You want to poison me just because I call you sister Xiaoguang? What a black heart!"
Ji Yingzhou ignored him, this guy was just joking.
Song Yuezhai was just a side job in his side business, and he opened that shop just to please his elders. During this period of time, he himself was too busy, so he had no time to follow him around the world.
The Zhao family is engaged in glass and fine chemicals. Their Jinghua Glass Industry Group is the largest automotive glass supplier in China and the second largest in the world. The Zhao family only has two children in this generation, one boy and one girl, Zhao Yige’s sister.
He is already a senior member of the group, but his youngest son is the most troublesome to the Zhao family.
Zhao Yige is smart and capable, but he is unwilling to join the company to help, and insists on doing what he likes.
A few years ago, when Ji Yingzhou laid out the e-sports industry, Zhao Yige also joined in the fun and formed a team of his own. At the beginning, there was only a lonely Peak of Glory branch, but now, whether it is MOBA or FPS, Zhao Yige's Paradise Eagle Club has played well.
Famous and prestigious.
If ranked purely by profitability, Paradise Eagle is well-deserved to be number one in the country, and even number one in the world.
After a year of integration after the acquisition of Trident Games by Lightyear Technology last year, the two online games under Trident Games are showing signs of a second spring. Next year's World Championship will definitely be another battle between dragons and tigers. It is now the transfer period, and Zhao Yige is
The big boss is not used to being the boss. He has no time to sign players or discuss sponsorships. How can he run around everywhere?
Zhao Yige couldn't stop after digging out so much information during his busy schedule. He could put the watch aside for a while, as the deeper questions were what he was most curious about.
Since meeting Ji Yingzhou and Yan Fuguang in Song Yuezhai, Zhao Yige has been making various insinuations during this period. Unfortunately, Ji Yingzhou's mouth is as tight as a clam shell, and he has nothing to do with Ji Yingzhou, so he still has a vague understanding of the relationship between the two.
I have never experienced Ji Yingzhou's gossip a few times in my life, and now that I have finally found the opportunity, Zhao Yige is extremely itchy.
"Just tell the truth, where are you two now? Are you together? Is she chasing you or are you chasing her? Or do you have unrequited love?"
Zhao Yige became more and more excited as he spoke. When Ji Yingzhou didn't speak, his expression became more and more exaggerated: "No way, is it really unrequited love?"
Ji Yingzhou had already begun to drive people away from Fa Xiao's continuous attempts to commit suicide. Zhao Yige was pushed out and kept mumbling: "No way, you are not really convinced by what I said, right Ji Yingzhou?"
The people in the office closed in front of him with a bang, but Zhao Yige acted like a normal person and smiled at Duan Lang who was looking over: "Your boss has a very bad temper recently. I can't afford to offend a man who wants nothing. Thank you for your hard work."
Ah, Secretary Duan!"
Duan Lang was speechless and could only smile.
Mr. Zhao, I'm afraid you have some misunderstanding. The boss is not far away from "asking and getting". How did you see this "not allowed"?
And he didn't work hard at all. If the day comes when Ji Yingzhou is happy, his year-end bonus may be doubled several times!
Ji Yingzhou flew to Geneva on December 4th and attended the auction on the 5th. This time he hadn't told Yan Fuguang yet. Although the little girl was so smart, she might have guessed it, but he still wanted to give her a surprise.
Only Watch's auction house is very large, with a private room on the first floor and a second floor. Although Ji Yingzhou is here, he is not planning to show up, and the bidding will be left to the agent to handle everything.
His only request is that there is no requirement and no upper limit. No matter how much money is spent, he must win the auction of Pavilion this year.
Ji Yingzhou didn't watch the preview three days before the auction. He didn't care about what rare treasures the major brands would bring out this year. His eyes only focused on the dark blue figure on the brochure.
Tudor Black Bay GMT-Master One was sold for 650,000 Swiss francs.
The Speedster cylindrical hairspring tourbillon built by Henry Moser & Cie. was sold for 930,000 Swiss francs.
Audemars Piguet's last unique watch, Ref. 15202, was sold for 3.1 million Swiss francs.
…
Each auction item has its own owner, and the most expensive one so far is Audemars Piguet's Ref. 15202, which is approximately RMB 23.35 million.
Ji Yingzhou did not give instructions, so the agent never made a bid. Ji Yingzhou was not a layman who knew nothing about watches, but this time nothing could distract him at all, until Periphery's only watch appeared on the big screen.
superior.
Periphere has always been a frequent visitor to auction auctions. For example, at the last Only Watch event, a stainless steel watch with a master tone by Periphere sold for 31 million Swiss francs, accounting for 80% of the total auction price.
That orphan watch was equipped with a reversible case and a double-sided dial, and had a total of 20 complex functions. The transaction price at that time also made it the most expensive timepiece in the history of auction.
If we only look at the complexity of the watches, this year's auction of Perfilipi is far from the previous one, but what is surprising is that there are no fewer people interested in Perfilipi this year than in previous years.
Especially many young collectors. If in the past, most of the people interested in watch auctions were middle-aged wealthy people in their thirties and forties, this time there are obviously many more young faces. Counting anonymous customers who bid through agents,
If these data were made public, everyone would find that more than 80% of the young customers came for Pavilion’s auctions this year.
The starting price announced at the auction was indeed as Yan Fuguang knew, 700,000 Swiss francs, but this number was not important at all. From the signs that were constantly raised in the first second of the auction, we could know that the final transaction price of this watch was at least
It will increase more than ten times.
When the asking price reached 3 million Swiss francs, the number of bidders was reduced by half. When it reached 5 million, there were only 1/4 left. At this time, the real competition had just begun.
Ji Yingzhou's eyes were always calm. Perhaps the only thing he was anxious about was that he had to go through all the procedures no matter what and couldn't touch it with his own hands earlier.
"5.7 million, No. 51 bids 5.7 million!"
"5.9 million. Mr. No. 201 on the right bids 5.9 million. Do you want to increase the price?"
"Yes! 6.3 million is on my left hand side, now it is 6.3 million..."
"6.5 million! 6.5 million. Thank you to the gentleman in the front row. Is there any increase in price?"
"6.5 million, now 6.5 million! Wow, 7 million, No. 188 bid 7 million, thank you for supporting the Only Watch charity!"
"Is there anyone who wants to bid for 7 million?"
"8 million!!! The gentleman on the second floor bids 8 million! 8 million for the first time. Is there anyone else who wants to bid? 8 million for the second time..."
"10 million! 10 million Swiss francs! 10 million is currently the highest in the audience! 10 million for the first time... 10 million for the second time..."
This time the auctioneer paused for several seconds before finally dropping the hammer with his left hand.
"For the third time, 10 million, congratulations to this collector for owning the world's only Perfilipi Only Watch, congratulations!"
Chapter completed!
