Chapter 494 The Heart Is Too Soft

Susie smiled at him, "Hello."

David was afraid of disturbing others, so he didn't continue talking.

The host on the stage announced the start of the auction.

Before, Liang Bixia signed the auction agreement instead of Susie, so Susie's brooch was also included in the auction.

The first auction was a ring designed by the young man named David behind Susie.

The main stone is a diamond-shaped yellow diamond, surrounded by colorless diamonds. The ring is made into a unique castle shape, which has a unique sense of power. Obviously this is a men's ring.

Soon, bids were heard one after another in the field, and it didn't take long for this yellow diamond ring to be sold at a price of 150 million francs.

Susie calculated in her heart that the market price of the yellow diamond was estimated to be around 80 million francs, and the broken diamonds were worthless. This ring sold for more than 150 million francs, which obviously exceeded the value of the jewelry itself. The premium part It was brought about by the design, or in other words, people are willing to pay so much money for the name of the third prize in the jewelry competition.

The Paris Jewelry Contest is held only once every three years, and the jewels auctioned each time are only a few prize-winning pieces, so there are still many people who are willing to spend a high price to collect them.

The next auction is the necklace of the second prize.

The main stone of the necklace is an emerald of more than six carats, and the whole necklace is composed of dozens of emeralds of different sizes.

The market price of these gems alone is more than 100 million francs.

Susie listened to those people's bidding one after another, and the host acted as a guest auctioneer, and the necklace was finally sold for 190 million.

Then Susie's lily of the valley brooch was placed in the center of the rostrum.

A photo of the brooch was displayed on a large screen.

Susie didn't know how much this brooch could sell for. Speaking of raw materials, compared with the yellow diamond ring and emerald necklace, the gemstones she used were really worthless.

The pearls are small and not worth much, and the diamonds inlaid on them and some small emeralds are not worth much.

The most valuable is the imperial green emerald leaves. However, the leaves are not very thick and not big.

The host quoted a reserve price of 100 million francs.

When Susie heard someone start asking for a price, it turned out to be the chairman of the jury, Master Neil, who was sitting on the stage.

Master Neil directly bid 120 million.

There was an exclamation from the audience.

Master Neil is a jewelry designer himself, and he has never heard of him buying jewelry designed by other designers.

Thinking about how Master Neil scored [-] points just now, it can be seen that he loves this brooch very much.

For a work that Master Neil loves so much, maybe the jewelry designer, Ms. Beverly, is the next Master Neil.

The works of future masters must be collected as soon as possible!

The audience began to bid wildly.

Susie stared dumbfounded.

The price quickly rose from 120 million to 220 million, and these people are still bidding.

Finally someone called out 260 million.

For a moment, Susie even felt a little guilty, the premium was too high, gems were not worth so much.

After thinking about it, I was still too soft-hearted.

Think of a luxury brand that sells thousands of pairs of pearl earrings that are actually plastic.

Another luxury brand, alloy bracelets with a cost price of tens of dollars at most can be sold for thousands, and even leather bracelets can be sold for thousands.

Moreover, Susie didn't think those things were aesthetically pleasing, but the brand premium was too high just to sell the logo.

But someone is willing to pay the bill.

Anyway, Susie never bought these branded jewelry in her previous life, she is not stupid, she would rather buy those top gemstones at auction, or buy antiques.

Luxury goods are actually used to harvest the middle class.

Susie thought about it, maybe Westerners like to add value.

From this point of view, in order to design this brooch, she racked her brains for several months, revised and revised the design draft, and put in a lot of hard work to achieve such a perfect presentation.

That's more than worth the premium over those plastic pearl earrings.

The final price stayed at 260 million francs, and the auction of the first prize was completed, and the whole auction was over.

Soon, all the remaining shortlisted works were placed on the booth.

Then the host announced the end of the awards ceremony, and everyone was free to go on stage to watch the shortlisted works.

Those interested in purchasing can contact the sponsor.

Every piece of jewelry sold here will be commissioned by the sponsor.

All the lights in the venue were turned on, and many people walked towards the booth. After all, looking at photos is worse than seeing the real thing.

David in the back seat came over immediately, "Miss Beverly, I really like the brooch you designed, it's the first time I've seen such spiritual jewelry."

Susie smiled, "I also like your work, the design is very unique."

David said very sincerely: "Miss Beverly, can we exchange contact information, I think we can discuss jewelry design together in the future."

Susie nodded, she opened her handbag, took out a notepad and a pen and wrote down her address and phone number.

David also wrote her his address.

At this time, a staff member came over and said to Susie: "Miss Beverly, please come with me over there, show your receipt, and then get your check."

The staff thoughtfully packed Susie's crystal trophy in a bag, and then took Susie to get the check.

The check was brought over, Susie looked at it, and only charged 230% of the handling fee, and got [-] million francs.

After receiving the check, Susie looked around and was about to go to find Master Neil when she saw Master Neil walking towards him.

The two embraced intimately again, and Master Neil smiled and said, "I like your work very much. I originally planned to buy it for collection, but unfortunately, they set the price too high."

Susie laughed, "I still want to collect your works. I really like the necklace last time."

Neil nodded, "That necklace is the work I am most satisfied with so far, and I have placed it in my study."

The two were talking, not far away Zhou Baozhu stared at them full of jealousy.

She felt that Susie was her nemesis.

The man she fell in love with Susie, even Susie's career is better than her!
Zhou Baozhu was standing near her jewelry display case. The ruby ​​flower basket she had designed was just under [-] points from the judges.

She still remembered the last time she talked to Master Neil, but Master Neil didn't show any face at all, so she didn't dare to go there now.

Then Zhou Baozhu saw her favorite star Anna walking over, chatting with Susie and Master Neil.

Anna was the one who photographed the lily of the valley brooch. She fell in love with it as soon as she saw it, and felt that it suited her temperament very well.

At this moment, Anna smiled and said, "It turns out that Miss Beverly is a student of Master Neil, so it's no wonder the design works are so aura."
