Nonequilibrium dynamics are studied near the quantum phase transition point in the one-dimensional quantum Blume-Emery-Griffiths model. Its pseudo-spin component $ S^z $ represents an electric polarization, and $ (S^z)^2 $ corresponds to ionicity, in mixed-stack charge-transfer complexes that exhibit a transition between neutral quantum-paraelectric and ionic ferroelectric (or antiferroelectric) phases. The time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation is solved for the exact many-body wave function in the quantum paraelectric phase. After impact force is introduced on a polarization locally in space and time, polarizations and ionicity coherently oscillate. The oscillation amplitudes are large near the quantum phase transition point. The energy supplied by the impact flows linearly into these oscillations, so that the nonequilibrium behavior is uncooperative.
