This kind of charity auction is different from those in Hollywood or other places. It is a truly high-end charity auction. After all, those who can come to such an occasion have a personal net worth of at least over 100 million US dollars.
At such a charity auction, the items that these wealthy people bring out naturally cannot be things worth thousands or tens of thousands of dollars. The items they bring out must be at least worth a hundred thousand dollars.
For example, the auction item that Bloomberg brought today is an emerald diamond necklace. When Bloomberg took out the necklace, he was still in the car coming here.
The necklace looks a bit outdated, and the value of the necklace itself is at most two or three hundred thousand dollars. If Bloomberg didn't know the origin of this necklace, Yang Jing would really look down on it.
"This is the necklace that Marilyn Monroe wore when she went on stage to receive the award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy at the 17th Golden Globe Awards in 1960 for her performance in Some Like It Hot. I bought it for $800,000 at an auction three years ago." Looking at the necklace, Bloomberg's eyes were filled with reluctance.
Yang Jinglei was very upset by these words. Looking at Bloomberg's lustful expression, it was obvious that he was also a young man who was fascinated by Monroe's charm.
If we calculate based on Bloomberg's age, when Monroe swept the United States and the world, Bloomberg was just a teenager. How could he not be charmed by that charming woman?
I just wonder if his wife Margaret would give him a savage roar if she knew that he actually collected a necklace that Monroe once wore.
Well, the necklace this guy took out was indeed very valuable. Although the necklace itself was not valuable, once it was associated with Monroe, it was estimated that all the men under the age of sixty present here would be tempted.
Yang Jing secretly complained about this old man, but this old man was quite interested in the auction items that Yang Jing had brought out. He also wanted to see what Yang Jing was going to auction today.
To be honest, this was Yang Jing's first time attending such a top-level cocktail party. He had no idea that attendees were required to bring an auction item of high quality, so he had no preparation at all.
However, there are plenty of good things in his storage space, and any one of them could be worth at least several million dollars.
"Take a Monet painting?" Yang Jing immediately shook his head and rejected the idea. Monet's works are also very popular in the United States. Even in the 1980s, a Monet painting would be worth tens of millions of dollars. It is obviously inappropriate to take out such a painting on such an occasion.
Among the treasures of the last Tsar obtained in Siberia, some of the oil paintings that had been preserved were put back into storage by Yang Jing, so now he has no shortage of paintings by famous artists.
"How about a golden scepter?" Yang Jing rejected the idea. There were two golden scepters found in Gaddafi's treasure in the space. They were made of gold and did not need maintenance. Just wipe them and they would immediately become golden and shiny.
However, the value of this golden scepter is also quite high. After all, it is an ancient Egyptian item and a veritable antique cultural relic. If you really want to calculate its value, it is really difficult to do so. If you meet a rich person who likes ancient Egyptian culture, it is not uncommon for him to spend tens of millions of dollars to buy it.
Yang Jing thought of the figure-eight escudo gold coins in the pirate treasure he got from Alert. Although such a gold coin could be sold for four or five hundred thousand dollars in the future, it was not worth it now. After all, gold coin collection was not very popular now and it was a private collection. If no one wanted this kind of gold coin and it failed to sell, it would be very depressing.
Yang Jing also wanted to find a set of jewelry from the treasure of the last Tsar, but Bloomberg had already taken out a necklace. If he took another set of jewelry, it would seem like a collision.
The most important thing is that the jewelry that was once worn by the Russian queen or even the empress may be worth much more than the necklace that Bloomberg took out, but Bloomberg's necklace was once worn by Monroe. This is America, who knows if those American tycoons would not hang Russian queens or empresses?
Bloomberg kept urging Yang Jing, and Yang Jing had no choice but to take out a colorless diamond as big as a bean from the box containing many gems.
This diamond is a cut diamond. With such a large size, its weight is definitely over 30 carats. It is definitely an extra large diamond.
Even in this era, the starting price of a diamond over 30 carats is in the millions of dollars. The most important thing is that even in the United States, such a large cut diamond is very rare.
