Chapter 382 sky-high price

“One hundred thousand two hundred million…”

“One hundred and fifteen million…”

"One 27 million..."

With the announcement from the host on the stage, the price of the huge projector behind him was rapidly flipping. Since the reserve price was as high as 100 million US dollars, this "Legend of the Queen of Naples" rolled upwards at a price of no less than one million US dollars each time.

Originally, according to the meaning of "Poly", this legendary watch was not prepared to set a reserve price. But Fang Yuanshan set a reserve price for this watch with the idea of ​​dispensable. Although everyone is happy to sell it, it doesn't matter if it can't be sold. Just like what he said when teasing Murong Wan, at most, he can dress up as a toy watch for his future "daughter"...

Seeing Hayek beside him with a calm expression, he was not moved at all by the numbers soaring on the projector downstairs. Fang Yuanshan was still confused at first, but thinking about it, this old man is very old and worth a lot of money, so it should be no difficulty to buy this watch.

“Is anyone else bid?”

All the excuses and all the praises about this legendary watch have been exhausted, so the auctioneer on the stage downstairs did not give any explanation. Such a watch with legendary charm in the watchmaking industry no longer needs him to have any unnecessary remarks.

"One Thirty-Seven Millions..."

"One Thirty-Nine Millions..."

Now the price of this "Legend Watch" has been raised to 139 million US dollars, and several of the participants on the second floor have not taken action! Among them is Nicholas Hayek sitting next to Fangyuan Mountain.

"One forty million..."

“One forty-one million…”

Just when the price was raised to 140 million, in the stands on the second floor, one of the guests' assistants pressed the quotation device to the display screen downstairs.

At this time, the "old man" sitting next to Fang Yuanshan finally stood up. After saying hello to Fang Yuanshan, he walked back to his seat. Soon the assistant next to him also joined the auction.

Fang Yuanshan was already numb at this time. He had begun to become indifferent to how much this watch could eventually be sold, and his mind began to think about the matter of South Ferris Ridge.

Anne had called him several times and urged him to rush back to Brazil as soon as possible. The head of "amza" wholly-owned by Vale has been waiting for him in Copacabana for several days.

Fang Yuanshan asked his private finance officer Meg to suspend the development funds of South Ferris Ridge. He considered this clearly. Vale would not transfer the shares there easily. This already involved the labor arrangements of the Brazilian authorities.

Brazil's unemployment rate has continued to rise in recent years, and monopoly groups like Vale are not just about developing minerals in Brazil, but they have to shoulder the problem of driving local employment rates. So even though they know that South Ferris Ridge does not make a penny, they still have to invest huge amounts of money to develop.

It doesn't matter if they don't make a penny to develop South Ferris Ridge, but it would have been a pain to make Fang Yuanshan. If Fang Yuanshan had not had three-dimensional graphics, he would not know that he had invested a huge amount of money to develop a barren land! Since Vale has pitted him, he would also pit the Vale and play a tragic role.

The battle for "Legendary Table" continued downstairs. At this time, it had reached a white-hot stage. In addition to Hayek's "Swatch" group, the people who were competing for the competition, such as Japan's "Citizen" and France's "Louis Vuitton" participated. As for a few, because they were only representatives, even Yuan Gaoyang didn't know which companies it belonged to, but judging by the fierceness of the bid, it must be quite famous.

“One forty-one million…”

"One 50 million..."

Suddenly, the big screen jumped for a moment, and the number directly turned into "150 million". This time it rose by nearly 10 million. Fang Yuanshan couldn't help but look around curiously. Seeing that the price was offered by Hayek in the distance, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Breguet will never let this watch go out. Moreover, with the popularity of luxury brands in recent years, Swatch Group has also made a lot of money in China and will not let them make any blood. Fang Yuanshan felt really sorry.

Hayek's move shocked other competitors. To say that this "Nepoli Queen's Watch" is actually more symbolic than practical. Most people buy it back and only have one to watch. And it has to be the kind that is covered with a glass.

However, it is different if these watchmaking groups buy them back. They can point them to their customer base, "Look! Our company has the world's first watch"! This strength also makes the majority of consumer groups believe that they have the ability to make the best watch in the world.

As for who once made this watch, the general public doesn't care! If it really goes, it might be said: Look, Breguet is no longer possible. Even the treasure of its own brand-name treasure has been bought, and sooner or later the company will be acquired...

As for whether Fang Yuanshan’s guess is wrong, just look at the people who are competing for now. Those who are thinking of finding a bargain have already been silent at this time, and are waiting for the masters of the watchmaking industry upstairs to compete for the final victory or defeat.

After a few seconds of silence on the big screen, the price slowly climbed again. 152 million, 153 million...

Such slow cuts made Hayek's face look very ugly. In fact, many people present knew that this watch, Nicholas Hayek would never let "it" flow out. But it is precisely because of this that those watchmaking groups work harder to increase the price.

If the Swatch Group refuses to spend a lot of money to "invite" this watch back, other watchmakers would not mind spending some "small money" to buy it back as a storefront. If Swatch was determined to buy it back, those giant crocodiles would certainly take this opportunity to weaken their cash flow. Anyway, no matter how you look at the quotations of the giants in the watchmaking industry, they would be so at ease, which made Hayek grit his teeth.

“One 79 million…”

“One hundred and eighty million…”

Nicholas Hayek suddenly stood up, walked to the guardrail on the second floor, supported the railing with both hands and said loudly: "Our Swatch Group bid 200 million!"

"Wow..."

"Wow... 200 million US dollars, that's not more than one billion Hong Kong coins. It's true? Even if this watch is valuable, it's not worth so much, right?"

"What do you know? This legendary watch is no longer an antique. It is a symbol, a witness, and a milestone in their watchmaking industry. It is not surprising that 200 million US dollars are not at all. I still think it is too little..."
