Seeing that someone at the scene raised a sign to meet the price, the auctioneer Jefferson immediately showed a smile on his face, and he also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand and gestured to the position of the person holding the sign, and said loudly with passion:

"Buyer No. 25 is asking for $400 million, it's a couple of gentlemen from Boston, and now it's $400.3 million, $400.3 million, and that gentleman is asking?"

At the same time as Jefferson made a loud offer, Ye Tian and Betty turned their heads together and looked at the location of the No. 25 bidder.

These were several white men in their sixties, dressed formally, with serious expressions, very neat and tidy faces, and their eyes were full of piety.

Judging from their behavior and mental state, Ye Tian immediately guessed their identities, they must be clergy from a certain church organization.

Betty's next words also confirmed his suspicions.

"This is the clergy of the United Church of Christ, and the one in the center is the pastor of the Old South Church in Boston, which I have seen in the church before and is very prestigious in Boston.

The United Church of Christ is one of the oldest religious groups in the United States, with great influence and strength, and they are obviously bound to win this "Creation of Adam!"

"That's great, the more competitors like that, the better!"

Ye Tian chuckled and whispered, and nodded to the clergy.

The other party also noticed him, nodded lightly to him, and responded!

Although they behaved quite friendly, it could be seen from their eyes that they were very jealous of Ye Tian, and even a little hostile.

Not long ago, the Old North Church was turned upside down by Ye Tian, and everything is still vivid, how could the clergy from Boston have a good impression of him?

After greeting each other, Ye Tian and Betty turned their heads and looked at the auction table in front of them.

At this time, someone raised a sign to make a price.

"Four hundred and five million dollars, Jefferson!"

The sound came from the telephone bidding area on the right side of the auction hall, where buyers joined the competition by bidding by phone.

"Buyer No. 136 offered $405 million, it was a telephone bid, and now the price is $408 million, $408 million, gentlemen, it's time to sell!"

As he shouted, Jefferson quickly raised his hand and gestured toward the telephone bidding area, and then quoted a new price.

Before his voice fell, someone at the scene had already raised the bidding number plate in his hand and shouted:

"Four and Two Million Dollars, Jefferson"

Hearing this, everyone in the auction hall turned their heads to look at the new competitor, with a little curiosity.

Jefferson's voice suddenly rose a few degrees, and he quickly raised his hand to the audience, and shouted passionately:

"Bidder No. 62 offers $420 million, and the art dealer from Mr. François of France is very generous! The current price is $423 million, 423 million, who will pay the price?"

While shouting loudly, Jefferson's eyes kept scanning the scene, his eyes very sharp and very excited.

Under his verbal incitement, the atmosphere in the auction hall has become more and more hot, and the competition has gradually become white-hot.

"Forty-two million dollars, Jefferson!"

"OK!Buyer No. 38 offers $428 million, from the famous billionaire and top collector Mr. Leon, the latest price is $431 million,......"

"Here, Jefferson"

"450 million dollars, this Michelangelo's "Creation of Adam" belongs to me, and no one wants to take it away from my eyes!"

"Don't dream! White, that treasure can never belong to you, it's mine, four hundred and sixty million dollars, Jefferson!"

"Buyer No. 76 offered $460 million, and the current price is $463 million, $463 million, and that gentleman will take the price?"

The competition is becoming more and more fierce, and the bidding license plates in the hands of many buyers on the spot, as well as the bidding license plates in the telephone and online bidding areas, are constantly raised, one after another.

The sound of quotations from all corners is endless, resounding throughout the auction hall, and everyone's voice is full of expectation and a momentum of giving up who is not me.

But that's just the beginning, it's not even a warm-up!

In the blink of an eye, the price of "The Creation of Adam" exceeded $500 million, setting a new record for the public auction of antique artworks, which is almost crazy!

The moment the offer exceeded $500 million, the auction hall immediately burst into applause, which was short but enthusiastic and deafening.

Immediately afterwards, many buyers on the scene entered more fierce competition, and there was no time to cheer for witnessing the miracle.

The bidding plates in people's hands rose and fell more frequently, the sound of quotations became louder, the competition became more and more fierce, and the smell of gunpowder in the air became stronger and stronger.

"Steven, congratulations, you have set a new auction record, I believe that for a long time to come, this record will belong to you, and it will be difficult to be broken!"

MOMA curator Julian probe said, eyes full of envy.

Ye Tian turned his head to look at this old friend, and said with a smug smile:

"Hahaha, thank you, Julian! $500 million, while very high, is not what "The Creation of Adam" should be worth, and this painting will definitely fetch a higher price!"

"Isn't it! I'm afraid the auction reserve price set by this guy is more than $600 million, right? Of course you don't care about the sky-high price of $500 million!"

Julian said angrily, rolling his eyes directly, and his tone was quite helpless.

"I still have nothing to say about the auction reserve price, when this auction is over, no matter what the result is, the auctioneer Jefferson will announce the reserve price, then you will know the exact amount!

The National Museum of America and the Paul Getty Museum of Art have both joined the competition, and their strength is too strong to be underestimated!"

Ye Tian said with a chuckle, his expression was very relaxed.

"We at MOMA have our own judgment on this pinnacle of Michelangelo, and it is too early to participate in the competition, it is just a waste of feelings.

Those guys at the National Museum and the Paul Getty Museum obviously don't know you well, and if they knew you well enough, they wouldn't have ended up so early!

With your guy's usual style and greed, no one wants to take advantage of you, you can only stretch your neck and be slaughtered by you!"

Julian shook his head slightly, continuing to watch.

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud voice suddenly came from not far behind.

"Five and Six Million Dollars, Jefferson"

The voice came from the left area of the sixth row, and the loud bidder was a well-known art dealer who knew Ye Tian and knew him well.

Hearing this brand new offer, everyone on the scene turned their heads to look over there.

At the same time, the high-pitched and loud voice of the auctioneer Jefferson came again, reaching everyone's ears.

"Buyer No. 76 is offering $560 million, and Mr. Warren Buffett's art agent, Mr. Hall, is welcome to participate in this competition.

The latest offer is $563 million, $563 million, gentlemen, don't miss this opportunity, or you'll regret it!"

Before Jefferson could finish speaking, the auction hall was completely boiling.

"I'll go! Warren Buffett is actually involved, and the situation is not optimistic! The next competition will be even more fierce!"

"Warren is gone, do you think Bill will be in the race for this pinnacle of Michelangelo?

If Bill also participates in the competition, then our hope of winning this "Creation of Adam" is very slim, Bill and Warren are the top three super-rich people in the world!"
