An hour and a half later, the charity auction was finally over.

Howard was delighted to have acquired a complete set of armor from the European Middle Ages for $30 million, making it the most expensive item in the charity auction.

Even taller than the Van Gogh painting that most people compete for.

Delighted, Howard looked back and found Figo looking at him with a grimace, "What's wrong?"

"If I were you, I'd rather spend $30 million on that pair of Daisies and Poppies, after all, art is priceless!"

Howard was a little unconvinced, "But my armor is also considered art, and it also has a mythological bonus!"

Figo smiled contemptuously, "The starting price of this armor is only $500,000, and you didn't notice that after more than $5 million, there was only one person arguing with you?"

"I know!" Howard was still immersed in excitement, "It's because I beat Hua Xia Wu and won this exhibit that I'm so happy!"

Fei Ge said with a look of hatred: "But didn't you notice that every time he increases the price, he increases it by 100,000 and 100,000?"

"That's right, that's because the price increase is at least 100,000 each time!"

"But think about it, how did he bid for that necklace when he patted it just now?"

In the face of Figo's rhetorical question, Howard was speechless for a moment, and the excitement on his face didn't have time to dissipate, and he completely froze on his face and said, "You mean, he deliberately argued with me and raised the price of this armor?"

Figo nodded grimly and said, "I'm afraid so." ”

"This cunning Huaxia Wu!" Howard gritted his teeth with hatred.

The charity auction is over, marking the end of tonight's banquet. However, for most of the people who attended, the rest of the free socialization was the real thing.

Melodious dance music sounded in the venue, and after the tense auction had just been experienced, many people pulled their female partners off the dance floor and relaxed.

The waiters moved around nimbly, bringing good wine and abundant food.

While Howard was remorseful, he still couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that this time his bid really overwhelmed Huaxia Wu's real victory.

Although he knew that the odds were slim.

But when Wu Tao walked towards him with a glass of champagne and a beautiful oriental girl, Howard's last hope was completely shattered.

"Congratulations, Howard, you've got such a perfect set of armor, it must fit your body perfectly!"

Howard:......

At this moment, a waiter came over and said respectfully, "Mr. Wu, are the two gentlemen over there looking for you?"

Wu Tao followed the other party's instructions and looked, and it was Buffett and Soros who got together again. And behind Soros, Molly obediently took it, with apprehension on her pretty face.

Walking over with Liu Ruoxi's face unchanged, Molly took the initiative to meet her and found an excuse to take Liu Ruoxi away.

Leaving Wu Tao alone to face the two financial tycoons, the scene was once a bit tense.

For such an occasion, Wu Tao is no longer a chick. Moreover, his net worth and status are now on par with the two bigwigs in front of him.

So they tacitly didn't speak there, and Wu Tao was happy to take a sip of champagne.

Until Soros broke the silence first, pointed at Wu Tao with a smile and said: "I really don't know what skills your kid used to make my granddaughter crazy!"

Wu Tao responded quietly: "If what Mr. Soros said is true, then I think it should be interests and vision." ”

“...... Miss Molly is so smart and beautiful, respectful of my opinion, and willing to cooperate with me, because she sees the potential for future development and the long-term benefits it brings. ”

"George," before Soros could react, Buffett preemptively said: "Have you noticed that this Huaxia Wu's self-confidence is especially similar to me when I was young." ”

Soros really observed, nodded and said, "That's right, Warren, it's very similar." ”

"In that case," Buffett put down his wine glass, patted his leg and said, "You might as well add some chips to Molly, lest the juniors always say that you are unfair." ”

"Well, as you wish. ”

As for this chip, how much it is, Wu Tao does not know.

Anyway, when the banquet was over and Wu Tao left, Molly was very excited and asked to go with her, and even shouted that she would not get drunk in the villa in Irvine tonight.

A week later, Tao Changxuan and Ni Guangnan successively completed their respective exchange negotiations, full of harvest, and embarked on the journey back to China.

And Wu Tao finally waited for An Rong, who was late for Shanshan, and boarded the plane back to Zhonghai together.

As the New Year approached, the beautiful flight attendants on the plane began to say some auspicious words and blessings for the New Year when they were serving with a smile.

An Rong has been sleeping with a blanket on her face since she got on the plane.

It can be seen that this period of time has really exhausted her. Cheonan completed the acquisition of IBM-PC, which was really a bit reluctant.

However, if we can successfully overcome this difficulty, complete the smooth reception of the global market of IBM-PC business, and complete the inheritance of all the technical aspects, then Tianan Company will be equivalent to completing the transformation from a cocoon to a butterfly.

From a domestic computer company relying on the local market in China, it has become a global multinational group.

From a technology-weak trading company, to a technology-driven technology-based enterprise.

Neither of these two goals will be easy.

So it's understandable that it's a little harder to take one step at a time now.

When the plane arrived at Zhonghai, it was in the afternoon local time.

With the smooth landing of the plane, An Rong woke up from a deep sleep, her shoulders, neck and even her whole body were still filled with a sense of soreness, but fortunately, the fatigue had gone a lot.

As long as you rest for another half day, you can almost recover.

In the next second, An Rong was attracted by the egg-sized emerald emerald in front of her.

No wonder I always feel a panic on my neck, and I unknowingly brought such a luxurious necklace.

Oh my God, jade is an extremely pure emerald!

What's even more rare is that it is so big that it is simply rare and rare.

For jade, An Rong is more or less knowledgeable, so she knows the nobility of this necklace.

"I heard that you took a necklace, is this one?" An Rong couldn't put it down, rubbing the jade seed of the emerald and said, "I thought you were going to give it to others." ”

"Who else can I give it to besides you?" Wu Tao raised his eyebrows, and said righteously and strictly: "After all, it cost 5 million US dollars, and only if it is given to you, it can be regarded as fertile water that does not flow into the field of outsiders." ”

An Rong smiled and said, "People didn't promise to marry you, never." ”

"I didn't propose to you, so you don't have to be in such a hurry to say yes. Wu Tao teased, and said: "Come to my house for the New Year this year~"

Marriage proposals are to be reserved, as for this requirement.

An Rong agreed without saying a word, and didn't forget to add: "But on my parents' side, you have to say it." ”
