Chapter 137: The Polar Bear's Financial Oligarch
Yo, the auction in the second half is a bit interesting.
Lu Ning looked at the brochure in his hand, his eyes glowing for a while.
A 1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900.
1959 Aston Martin DB4.
1931 Bugatti 41 "Royal".
1938 Delehayer 165 Convertible
1958 Ferrari 250.
These are all classic cars that are hard to come by. I didn't expect Christie's to bring them all at once?
Holy crap, this is Christie's wanting to be a hit, Lu Ning pouted, it was an eye-opener.
Istantin and Antonio on the side also got together to discuss, and it seemed that they were quite interested in the cars in the second half.
"Young Master Lu, how are you, which ones have you seen? Let's sum it up, so that we don't get into a fight with each other and let Lao Maozi take advantage of it." Istantine approached Lu Ning and discussed in a low voice.
"How many have you seen? Don't worry, I will never rob you."
"A 1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900, a 1938 Delehayer 165 Convertible are both good ones to consider."
"What about the other cars? Ferrari's 250, Bugatti Royal No. 41 is also good."
"The car is a good car, but the strength doesn't allow it, Lu Shao, the stock of the few cars you mentioned is too small. I'm afraid that a price war will start and it will be ugly. It's better to focus on these two cars." Istanbul shrugged. His family's money was not coming from the wind. If the old man knew that he had used such a large amount of money to buy a car, he would have to cut himself to death.
"Lu Shao, I want to remind you that if you want a Ferrari 250, you might as well stare at the 1962 250 GTO on the last page. This Ferrari 250 GTO only produced 39 units that year, and it is in stock now. Definitely no more than one palm."
Istanbul told Lu Ning seriously that this car made Lu Ning negligent, thinking that they were all Ferrari 250s, so there shouldn't be much difference, but he didn't expect the difference to be huge.
While several people were researching, the auction house caused some minor commotion.
The polar bear person has arrived. An oligarch who plays finance in the Soviet Union is very valuable. According to legend, it can affect the replacement of Polar Bear No. 1. He belongs to the real power figure of the polar bear.
"Hey, the aura is very strong." He saw that the financial oligarch was accompanied by a blond woman to the left and right, walking without recognizing the six emotions, with a group of bodyguards behind him.
All this is in Antonio's eyes. At this moment, Antonio glanced at him without a sharp glance, with a trace of contempt in his mouth, but his eyes seemed a little cautious.
This oligarch is the head of the Polar Bear Alpha Group, Friedmansky, one of the seven extant polar bear oligarchs.
At this time, Friedmansky, who walked into the auction hall, looked around and focused on the position in the first row.
Hug left and right, and brought the two blondes to the first row.
"Several gentlemen, our boss Friedmansky's position is also in the first row, but now there are 2 positions missing. Can you discuss and give up 2 positions?" One of the bodyguards stepped forward. Said to Lu Ning everyone.
Although the tone is polite, but it has a tone of command.
Damn, is this bodyguard an idiot? Think of this as your soviets? What a joke.
At this moment, the eyes of everyone in the auction hall were fixed on the people in the first row.
Even if he didn't know Lu Ning and others, how could he be an ordinary person who could get a first-row position at such an important auction at Christie's.
Friedmansky just saw that Lu Ning and others were young and wanted to shake their prestige, so that he could take the lead in the subsequent auction.
but,
It's a pity that Friedmansky absolutely picked the wrong opponent.
You Friedmansky are awesome, but you are just an oligarch on the polar bear side. In America, your identity is really not easy to use. Believe it or not, if you do something now, you will be staring at you within 2 minutes. The FBI agents will appear in front of you.
Moreover, even if you remove Lu Ning and Alice, the family background behind Istanbul and Antonio does not belong to you. What kind of pedigree are you putting in front of these two people?
"Go away." Antonio was the most angry, and mercilessly told the bodyguard to get out.
Antonio did not give Friedmansky any face, which made the financial oligarch look gloomy.
However, Friedmansky also understands that there are FBI agents behind him, and these agents will definitely not let him do whatever he wants in the United States.
Moreover, he didn't know the bottom of these people in front of him, and he couldn't act rashly. He was restrained everywhere in America, which made Friedmansky feel very uncomfortable.
With a cold snort, Friedmansky did not choose to "go to war", and took the two blonde beauties to sit in the first row of seats. As for the accompanying ones, they had to go to the back.
Friedmansky took out a cigar, and the blonde beside him immediately took out the special lighter that he carried in the small bag, and helped Friedmansky light the cigar.
For a while, Alice, who was not far away, was choked and coughed.
Lu Ning frowned in dissatisfaction at this time.
There was no need for Lu Ning to speak, and Istanbul and Antonio couldn't help sneering.
"Hey, this gentleman, if you want to enjoy your cigar, there is a cigar room specially prepared by Christie's at the door, you can enjoy it anywhere, as for now, you should snuff out the cigar in your hand, otherwise you are not a gentleman. behavior." Istanbul did not give Friedmansky any face at all, and pointed out his misconduct in person.
It made Friedmansky choked a little uncomfortable. Where did a bunch of bastards come from, how dare they challenge themselves again and again?
With his current status, even the other seven oligarchs who are the same as him will not give him face.
"Haha, which American family are you from? Didn't the elders in the family tell you, don't be so arrogant when you go out?" Friedmansky sneered again and again.
I have been really offended by these guys.
"Istantin Bull."
"Antonio Fred."
The two reported their names respectively. Needless to say, although Istanbul and Antonio were not as well-known as Lu Ning, they were considered the second generation of famous Los Angeles.
No worse than Friedmansky's power, and we are still American natives. You, a polar bear from the Soviet Union, are bullying here.
As soon as Friedmansky heard the other party's name, he thought of the two families in Los Angeles, well, he couldn't afford it for the time being.
Hmph, don't let me know that you left America, this hatred is written down first.
Friedmansky handed the cigar to the girl beside him and motioned her to put it out.
