Jewelry is always a woman's favorite thing. Even for some men who have a hobby of collecting, especially the wealthy owners here today, it is enough to attract a lot of attention.
When a pink diamond the size of a pigeon egg appeared on the exhibition stand, even Yan Xue couldn't help but scream in surprise.
The person in charge of hosting the auction today is the vice president of Christie's. Only a person of this level is qualified to host such a grand auction.
He pointed at the gem in front of him and couldn't help but said with some excitement: "Pink diamond is one of the most precious varieties of diamonds. Although this pink diamond is not the largest, it is also ranked among the top 100 in the world.
.What’s even more rare is that this pink diamond has LC-level clarity and the cut has reached the highest ex-level. Anyone who can own it will be proud of it.”
The value of a diamond mainly depends on its color, size, clarity and cut.
Pink diamonds are relatively more precious among various colors. Coupled with top-notch clarity and cut, the value of this pink diamond is even higher.
At this time, Auction Stone dropped another gimmick and said with a smile: "Since none of the jewelry being auctioned tonight will be visible to the world, the first person to buy the jewelry will have the right to name it. This is a piece of extremely high quality.
The best pink diamond, the lowest price is 2 million Hong Kong dollars, and the price increase is no less than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars each time!"
"3 million!"
A middle-aged bald man next to Li Xiaowei was the first to shout, and his short, carrot-like fingers slowly wandered around Li Xiaowei's waist.
As soon as he finished speaking, the fat man on the other side of Li Xiaowei slapped his hand away and shouted loudly: "3.5 million! I am bound to get this pink diamond, so I will give it to Xiaowei as a gift."
Li Xiaowei didn't mind at all when a few hands were touching her body. Li Xiaowei smiled sweetly and turned around from time to time to cast a provocative look at Yan Xue and Xia Lei. It seemed to be mocking Yan Xue, no man
He was jealous of her and ridiculed Xia Lei for not being able to afford such a unique treasure.
Two minutes later, the pink diamond was bought by Fatty for 6.5 million and given to Li Xiaowei, a well-known socialite in the entertainment industry.
In fact, there were only a few people bidding. Although this pink diamond is valuable, it is not qualified as a top-notch collection. It is just used to coax women. Those super rich people will never spend money to sell such things. They pay more attention to it.
It's collectible value, and only the nouveau riche who have just qualified to get started will use this thing to please beauties.
Letting the fat man hold her waist, Li Xiaowei walked up to Yan Xue and held the pink diamond in the palm of her hand: "What a beautiful diamond. Why didn't Miss Yan let your male companion take a picture? Oh...I
I forgot, a young guy who just debuted stole an invitation letter from somewhere and sneaked in just to meet some noble people. How can he be the male companion of Miss Yan? "
"Then am I qualified to be Yan Xue's male companion?" A cold voice came from the side, but it was not just one person.
On the right is a handsome man who looks about thirty years old. The man on the left is slightly older and looks much more ordinary.
Li Xiaowei was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Wei Jun, I heard that the movie just made more than 10 million, but that little money is not enough to please Miss Yan, right? Our Mr. Hong, on the other hand, only earns a few hundred yuan."
Don’t worry about it at all.”
The older man snorted coldly and glanced at her and the fat man: "Instigating dissension depends on the method. You are too young to do it so obviously. Don't think that you can't get rid of me if you get along with others."
From Leopard's perspective, I don't mind throwing you and your mistress into Kowloon Bay to feed the fish."
The middle-aged fat man's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly pulled Li Xiaowei away. He was obviously very afraid of this guy named Hong Bao.
The man named Wei Jun shook his head and chuckled, patting him on the shoulder: "Okay, don't scare others, and don't even try to scare me. I will never give up Yan Xue to you."
"Who asked you to give in? You haven't given in to me since I was in elementary school. Each brother relies on his own abilities."
Hong Bao's gloomy expression softened. After speaking, he walked up to Yan Xue and looked at Xia Lei deeply: "Yan Xue, who is this little brother?"
Yan Xue smiled slightly and said: "Let me introduce to you. Wei Jun, Hong Kong's popular idol superstar, Hong Bao, that... Wei Jun's good friend since childhood."
I have heard of Wei Jun's name, Xia Lei, one of the most famous superstars in Hong Kong today, but I don't know about Hong Bao. From what just happened, we can see that even the billionaire is as afraid of a snake as a scorpion.
, this guy’s background must be very shocking, but Yan Xue didn’t reveal his identity.
In this way, he was almost certain that this Hong Bao had a gangster background, so it was not convenient for him to say it in public.
"Hello, my name is Xia Lei, a third-rate actor who just debuted." Xia Lei introduced himself.
"hehe……"
Wei Jun smiled kindly and said: "It doesn't matter, every superstar comes from a third-rate actor. We have all seen what happened just now. Mr. Xia has good courage. How can ordinary people dare to offend Li Xiaowei? In the future, there will be more
If you need anything, you can come to me. Yan Xue’s friends are my friends, and I will help you wherever you can."
Two good friends who grew up together, one got into the entertainment industry and became a popular superstar, the other became a local gangster in Hong Kong, but they both fell in love with Yan Xue.
Xia Lei felt funny in his heart. He could see that the two of them had a very good relationship. They liked the same person and could compete fairly. These two people were considered characters. Otherwise, with Hong Bao's background, what if he was a superstar? Wei Jun didn't do it at all.
You are qualified to compete with him for women.
The four of them chatted without a word, and the two guys tried their best to please Yan Xue.
On the other hand, Yan Xue seemed to have a good relationship with the two of them, but there was no ambiguity, which made them fight more fiercely. The exhibits on the auction stage were of higher and higher quality, starting from several million in value, and gradually
With the skyrocketing, tens of millions of treasure-level treasures gradually appeared.
If the first half hour or so was the appetizer, 90% of the jewelry was photographed and given away, and then the transition to collection began, which can be regarded as the main course on the table.
"I really don't know where all these jewelry come from. Why does the country auction jewelry?"
Hong Bao frowned and whispered to himself. He thought for a long time and couldn't figure it out. He smiled helplessly and said: "Fortunately, the quantity is not very large, otherwise the international jewelry market will be affected."
As time went by, more and more high-quality jewelry appeared on the exhibition stand, and the value climbed to hundreds of millions.
More than 90% of the rich people at the scene could only stare. A piece of jewelry is worth hundreds of millions, which is not something they can covet. Without tens of billions of assets, how can they have so much spare money to buy it? So, the super-rich people who were there in the early stage became interested.
The crowd was so excited that they went on a killing spree, raising the prices of those gems to astonishing levels.
These people are considered the real rich. Their so-called collection is purely for making money. After all, every piece of jewelry that appears later is very rare. Once someone takes a fancy to it, they can sell it and earn a terrifying price difference.
Sudden!
The crowd seemed to explode, and the lights in the hall dimmed, and a beam of white light shone on the booth.
It was a diamond the size of a fist, and it was also the king of diamonds - the black diamond.
When the light shines on the black diamond, it seems that the light is completely absorbed and then emitted in another form. Countless facets reflect the unparalleled brilliance, and the luxurious decoration in the hall is eclipsed. It is more like a small black hole.
Attract all eyes to it.
The host’s voice rose several times and he couldn’t help saying excitedly: “Black diamonds are the king of diamonds, the most expensive one under the same conditions, and the cut, clarity, color and size of this black diamond are absolutely the best.
Unparalleled in the world. With it, you will become the best in the world, and your name will be engraved on the monument of the jewelry industry. The base price is 5 billion, and each increase in price will not be less than 1 billion. These are also the three most expensive pieces of jewelry today.
one."
"Ten billion!"
I don’t know who shouted out first, and then came the price increases one after another.
Anyone with a little bit of jewelry knowledge knows that this black diamond can no longer be measured in money. It can be said to be priceless or priceless. For some royal families in the Middle East, they don't mind paying tens of billions, or even
Sell this black diamond for hundreds of billions, and you can make a huge difference when it is resold.
It’s just that they don’t know that just tonight, major cities in all economically developed countries around the world are holding jewelry auctions at the same time. There are countless priceless jewelry like this, and the global jewelry market will welcome them early tomorrow morning.
A big revolution will bring prices down a lot.
To put it simply, the world's richest people have been deceived by Xia Lei. Unfortunately, I sell you and you buy them willingly, and you can only accept your fate after suffering a loss.
In just two minutes of crazy price increases, the price of the black diamond reached an astonishing 28 billion.
Although there is still a huge profit margin, the speed and extent of price increases have obviously slowed down. After all, the closer you get to the saturation point, the smaller the difference you can earn. Who doesn’t want to earn a little more?
"Oh my god... If only I could have this black diamond..." Yan Xue clasped her hands on her chest, as if she was a little girl who became a princess in her dream.
"Aren't there three rich people next to you? Can't you just ask them to buy it for you?" That annoying Li Xiaowei came over at some point, with a look on her face that she was watching a good show.
"Get away!"
Hong Bao shouted with a cold face and said word by word: "I don't want to cause trouble today, but you are not even a trouble to me."
A trace of fear flashed deep in Li Xiaowei's eyes, but it was quickly diluted by jealousy.
Since we can't provoke Hong Bao, it's okay to change the target, right?
She looked at the carefree Xia Lei with a smile, and her smile contained teasing and ridicule: "Aren't you Miss Yan's male companion today? What's wrong? Aren't you going to buy something for your female companion? Alas... why are you chasing after such a stingy person?
Girl? Your life is destined to be a third-rate actor."
Gently placing the wine glass on the table, Xia Lei smiled at Yan Xue: "Do you really want that black diamond?"
"think……"
As soon as the word came out, Yan Xue reacted immediately and said quickly: "I'm sorry, I just said it casually. Diamonds can't be eaten or drunk, so what do you want them to do? Why don't you wait until the auction is over? Please treat me
Have a midnight snack with Hong Bao and Wei Jun?"
Xia Lei couldn't help but feel stagnant and secretly praised her intelligence.
This sentence not only gave him a solution, but most importantly, it brought Hong Bao and Wei Jun to him. This is likely to play a decisive role in the acting career of the third-rate actor who has just debuted. As long as he matures
They have become friends of the two, whether it is Wei Jun, who is a superstar, or Hong Bao, who has a profound background, if you can help him, your future will be bright.
