It's hard to say without seeing the video. "Let's end the bidding" refers to an auction, where people bid on items they want, that is, declare ever higher amounts of money they are willing to pay, until the auctioneer closes (ends) the bidding and the item is sold to the last and highest bidder. I suspect your speaker used "bidding" by very loose analogy with whatever he was talking about.
