The work Army Princess - Zhen Zhen by Ling Jian was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2010. It achieved a price of HKD 1,220,000.00 (€ 120,540.04), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 53%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Ling Jian; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Communist Sisters: Tears of Idealism No. 2 sold at auction in June 2008 with the realized price of GBP 163,250.00 (€ 206,353.47).
