In fact, at the charity dinner, such a speech on the general trend of economic development was made on purpose.

Therefore, Gray is so cautious, he can't hide the old guys who have served two terms of business and politics on the scene, and he can't fool Wu Tao, an old fritter who is used to seeing big scenes.

At that moment, he walked up to the stage with gusto, took the microphone from Gray's hand, and said in a relaxed and happy tone: "Before the charity auction is about to begin, Mr. Davis called me up, probably to ask me to cheer everyone up, so that I can give an assist to today's charity auction." ”

This opening not only downplayed his suspicion of standing on the platform for Davis, but also linked this temporary gaise's speech to today's charity auction.

After a burst of good-natured laughter from the audience, they immediately became curious about the content of Wu Tao's upcoming speech.

Wu Tao then changed his words, "Fortunately, I am indeed here today to cheer everyone up and give everyone confidence." Because of the global economy, it will soon usher in a new round of rapid growth because of the maturity of the Chinese market......"

The five-minute speech was short and concise, but it caused a lot of repercussions at the scene.

Until the auctioneer stepped onto the podium and began to preside over the charity auction, the following discussion was still unfinished.

Seeing his boss coming back, Liu Ruoxi hurriedly grabbed Wu Tao's wrist like a calf protector.

The speech just now was so free-spirited, which shook off a lot of dry goods and inspired people's hearts.

Especially on such an international occasion.

Such a performance made Liu Ruoxi feel proud. Especially when she found that the eyes and reactions of many elegant ladies in the audience were similar to hers, she felt even more responsible as the boss's female companion.

Wu Tao drank a full glass of lemonade in one breath and moistened his throat, only then did he notice that Liu Ruoxi next to him hugged him a little tightly.

So that the elbow always touches the softness of the touch, tickling the heart.

Soon, a tall woman walked over quickly, her figure almost comparable to that of a professional bodybuilder.

This woman is none other than Rise, who has had two interview appointments with Wu Tao and is now an associate editor at Barron's.

"The speech just now was very good, Mr. Wu. Rose raised her glass and touched Wu Tao gently.

Wu Tao smiled and said, "Thank you, but the content just now is not something new to Miss Reese." ”

Ress bowed slightly, "Even so, it is very beneficial to be able to listen to Mr. Wu's high arguments again." ”

"Hmph!" At that moment, there was a soft hum from the side.

Everyone followed the prestige, only to hear people walking over and saying, "Wu, I have no opinion on the fact that you are optimistic about the Chinese market." But if you think that because of the prosperity of the market, you can develop technology, especially the development of high-end technology in chip semiconductors, then you are very wrong. ”

Ress suddenly couldn't help but be faintly excited, it turned out to be Kristof, the president of Motorola!

The argument between him and Huaxia Wu will definitely be exciting.

is also a member of the Tsinghua Economic Management Advisory Committee and a competitor in the mobile phone industry, so Wu Tao is no stranger to Christophe in front of him, and he also knows the development history of Motorola well.

"Christophe, first of all, I thank you for the reminder, and secondly, I would like to express my regret that Motorola has lost in the field of microprocessors. ”

“…… But if you make a conclusion about the development of the entire Huaxia semiconductor industry because of this, I can't agree. ”

“…… The reason doesn't even need me to say, but the obvious fact is before all of us. That's the mobile phone industry! Lotus phones have continued to grow year after year since they were founded, and Motorola phones, on the other hand, have lost money for several consecutive quarters.

was originally talking about the chip business, but now it is being pulled to the mobile phone, and Christophe is also at a loss.

Who let Motorola's current shipments be completely beaten by the Lotus Phone X?

So Kristoff blushed and said, "We're talking about the semiconductor chip industry, OK?"

Wu Taoyun raised his eyebrows lightly, "OK! Maybe one day, Motorola's mobile phones must use the baseband chip independently developed by our Huaxia. If Motorola's mobile phone business can survive until that day......"

"Then we'll see!"

Kristoff turned away, and in the eyes of Ress, a shrewd onlooker, he was a loser.

However, Rhys didn't say much on this topic, but instead asked, "Wu, I noticed that you and Gray are very close, so do you think he can be re-elected as governor?"

"Probably. Wu Tao's tone was ambiguous.

Ress disagreed, "As far as I know, his competitors are quite well prepared." ”

Wu Tao waved his hand, "I'm not interested in politics, but we can wait and see." ”

Just when a few people were chatting, everything about the auction was quickly ready.

Wu Tao took Liu Ruoxi, as Beresi, and came to Wu Yingying's side in the front row.

Seeing this, Wu Yingying handed the No. 8 plate in her hand to Wu Tao and said, "Boss, if you like an auction item you are interested in, just try it." ”

Wu Tao waved his hand, lacking interest.

It wasn't until the third exhibit was a crystal clear jade necklace that his eyes lit up and he took the brand from Wu Yingying's hand.

"This is a superb piece of rough emerald ......," the auctioneer began to introduce the exhibits in a seductive tone, attracting the women in the audience to wait and see.

Sure enough, women are naturally interested in things like gold, jade, and gemstones.

"Okay, start bidding now, the starting price is $100,000, and the price will increase by $10,000 each time!"

As soon as the auctioneer's words fell, Wu Tao simply raised the number plate.

"Okay, No. 8, 100,000!"

However, the $100,000 price on this occasion is quite cheap, so before Wu Tao's license plate fell, many buyers rushed to raise the license plate.

In the blink of an eye, the price list soared to $300,000.

When Wu Tao saw this trend, when did he want to grab it?

The scene fell silent.

As soon as the others saw that it was Wu Tao who had spent so much money, they stopped making a move at the moment. What's more, for 1 million US dollars, it is really outrageous to win such a jade necklace.

Just when Wu Tao thought that the dust had settled on this auction, a lazy voice came from the side, "1.1 million!"

Without waiting for Wu Tao to look over, Wu Yingying's voice came: "It's Howard and Figo." ”

"5 million!"

The guests in the venue gasped.

Howard, who had originally made up his mind to get along with Wu Tao, suddenly lost his sharpness and never dared to raise the number plate again.

In the end, the jade necklace fell into Wu Tao's hands at a bidding price of 5 million US dollars.

For a while, the eyes of all the women in the audience were focused on Wu Tao.

Rational men may think that Wu Tao has done a big revenge.

But in the eyes of women, they don't think this necklace is too expensive. On the contrary, they even feel that this jade necklace has become more attractive because of the transaction price of 5 million!

Liu Ruoxi came back to her senses, took a deep breath, and whispered: "Boss, we seem to have a little loss, and we all blame No. 17 for making trouble!"

Wu Tao said indifferently, "It's okay, even if it's a free donation, we have to donate so much." As for the 17th, hmph, I'll make them pay for it in a while......"
