"Three million for the second time!" Lu Ke paused, repeating the highest price for the second time, his eyes still looking at Shi Lingqiang.

Shi Lingqiang thought about it and put down the number plate in his hand. Leng Qiuning did not participate in the previous bidding, but deliberately waited until the deal was about to be completed before it suddenly came out, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he directly quoted a whole number of three million, showing a posture of being determined to win this guitar. Anyway, it wasn't a bid with Xiao Yao, so Shi Lingqiang decided to give up.

"Three million for the third time!" Lu Ke saw that Shi Lingqiang put down the number plate, and knew that he would not bid again, so he knocked down the gavel in his hand, "Congratulations to Ms. Leng Qiuning on No. 8 for winning this handmade acoustic guitar donated by Xiao Yao for three million." Next, please come to the stage, and Xiao Yao will hand over the guitar to Mr. Leng himself. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Leng for giving face so much!" took the guitar from the etiquette model and handed it to Leng Qiuning, Xiao Yao laughed quietly.

"You're welcome, but let's contribute to the disaster area. Leng Qiu Ning smiled, "Besides, I still owe you a favor." ”

"It's just a meal, three million to shoot a guitar, how can it be repaid, right?" Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"No, the money is for the disaster area, and this guitar is a birthday gift I am going to give to Xiaodi, not to repay your favor. Leng Qiu Ning shook his head and said, "The business card I gave you is still there, right?" My promise is still valid, you can still find me if you need my help." ”

"Sister Di?" Xiao Yao said, "From Miss Di to Xiao Di, you are so familiar with her." ”

"yes, I'm the only guest besides you right now who can charter her a room. Leng Qiu Ning smiled a little smugly, "As far as I know, the only guests who can be called her friends are the two of us." Her birthday is coming up, and I know she loves to play the guitar, and if I give her a guitar that you made for her birthday, I think she'll be happy. ”

The two were talking about Xie Di, the female boss of the "Grandpa's Secret Garden" in Yanjing's old alley. And this Leng Qiuning is also the lady Xiao Yao met when he took Sun Tingting to Xie Di's "Grandpa's Secret Garden" for dinner on his eighteenth birthday.

Originally, Xiao Yao had chartered the venue with Xie Di that day, and the charter was temporarily canceled so that Leng Qiu Ning was not rejected by Xie Di. The food that Leng Qiu Ning ate that day was divided from the food prepared for Xiao Yao, Xie Di did not charge her for the meal, and later Xiao Yao took a lot of photos for Leng Qiu Ning, Leng Qiu Ning felt that she owed Xiao Yao a favor, and gave Xiao Yao a business card when she left, saying that she could find her at any time when she needed help.

"Sister Di's birthday is coming, I don't even know when her birthday is. Xiao Yao said, "Speaking of which, I haven't been to her for more than a year, and I have to go to her next time I go back to Yanjing." ”

"Well, she's sure she's glad to see you, too. Leng Qiu Ning said with a smile.

"You two look familiar. Seeing Leng Qiuning and Xiao Yao standing on the stage chatting quietly, Xiao Wei, who was standing on the side, smiled.

"I'm sorry, I haven't seen you for a long time, so I talked a little more. Knowing that Xiao Wei was a subtle reminder that the two of them had been standing on the stage for a long time, Leng Qiuning owed a little, raised the guitar in his hand and said to Lu Ke, "Can you find someone to help me keep it temporarily?" I'll take it when the party is over, it's not convenient for me to take it back to my seat now." Also, is there a guitar bag or a guitar case or anything like that? I'm afraid I'll accidentally bump into it. "The guitar is not like the previous bag necklace and other things, you can just put it on the table, this thing is too big, and there is no vacancy on the table, Leng Qiuning really has no place to put it under the stage now.

"Absolutely. Lu Ke reached out and took the guitar, and handed it back to the etiquette model standing next to him, "We will take care of it for you." Xiao Yao has given this guitar an exclusive guitar case, and after the party, we will put it in the guitar case and hand it to you together. ”

After setting up the guitar, Xiao Yao and Leng Qiuning also walked off the stage and returned to their respective seats amid the applause of the guests at the scene.

The auction continued. The next lot is still a variety of luxury goods donated by celebrities or celebrities. Since they are all donated by private individuals, they are considered second-hand items regardless of whether they have been used or not, so these things are basically jewelry, watches, bags and other accessories, as well as some high-end golf club bags and other things, but basically there are no clothes.

Although there are many celebrities who raise their cards to participate in the auction, on the whole, there are still many people who take pictures of these things in various corporate homes. After all, if you simply compete for financial resources, those business people are still better than celebrities.

In the auction of the next few lots, there was no more fierce bidding scene. The prices were all within one million, which is the same grade as the previous lots.

Looking back on the entire auction, only Yin Xi's necklace and Xiao Yao's guitar were sold for more than one million, and Xiao Yao's guitar also became the king of the auction tonight with a transaction price of three million.

After the auction, the whole dinner came to an end.

The organizer of the magazine, the head of the magazine and the editor-in-chief of the magazine, took the stage to announce the total amount of money raised from tonight's auction and gave a speech of thanks, and the whole banquet ended with a round of applause from the guests.

"Baoli" is the first time to do a charity party, and it has the meaning of competing with old rivals, so it naturally wants to start its own sign. Although due to the general environment, the party is not too lively, but there are many celebrities and celebrities invited, which can be called starry, and the results are also very good, and they must have spared no effort in publicity.

There were already a lot of media reporters invited on the night of the charity gala, and "Polaroid" magazine did a lot of public relations work afterwards. On the second day of the charity gala, after many Chinese media published detailed reports about the charity gala, a large number of remarks and posts discussing the charity gala appeared in various places such as Weibo, Tieba and forums on the Internet.

Since it is an auction, the bidder on the spot must be a key point that has to be mentioned in the news report. Xiao Yao's guitar was the bidder at the auction, and naturally it became a hot topic of discussion in the media and on the Internet.

In addition, the interaction between Xiao Yao, Shi Lingqiang and Leng Qiuning, two business celebrities, that night was also quite interesting.

"Xiao Yao had a holiday with the son of the richest man in Yanjing?"

"Xiao Yao has a personal relationship with a legendary strong woman in the business world?"

The media and the Internet have also raised some speculation and discussion about Xiao Yao's relationship with these two people. These are the same as Xiao Yao's use of a guitar to exchange for a huge sum of three million for the disaster area, and they are also topics that people talk about. Xiao Yao has also become a popular figure in the media and on the Internet again.

On the day Xiao Yao came back from the disaster area, there were only three or four days left before the start of the Shen Opera school, and the charity party of "Baoli" was on the third night after Xiao Yao returned to Shencheng, that is, after the charity party, the Shen Opera school started. So, in the midst of discussions, Xiao Yao ushered in the second year of his college career.

Generally speaking, freshmen in colleges and universities arrive a few days later than senior students, which is also one of the foundations of the tradition of welcoming old students in colleges and universities.

When applying for the opera art examination in March this year, Xiao Yao happened to be preparing for the "Singer" program, and did not appear on the periphery of the examination room to watch the handsome guys and beauties who may become younger brothers and sisters in the future. At that time, many candidates who wanted to meet Xiao Yao, a star student of Shen Opera, were disappointed.

When applying for the opera art exam, the teaching assistants around the examiner are all graduate students, even those who register for the roll call are basically graduate students, and those who help maintain order, do some auxiliary work such as moving and lifting to help arrange the examination room are all junior and senior students, basically there is nothing to do with sophomores, they can only appear onlookers, this kind of personal interest, Xiao Yao did not appear It is normal. However, when new students enter the school, the sophomore members of the student council and ordinary students are the main force.

When the club recruited new students shortly after the start of school last year, the student union of the performance department took the initiative to send Xiao Yao an invitation to join the student union. Although Xiao Yao resigned from the position of class president, he did not rule out joining the student union, but only stated that he had limited time and did not want to hold any fixed positions in the club. With the star Xiao Yao here, it will be relatively easy for the student union to engage in activities, and it will be relatively easy to go out to solicit sponsorship or something, so the student union met Xiao Yao's requirements, and Xiao Yao also joined the student union of the Shenju Performance Department. In his freshman year, when he was not busy with work, Xiao Yao also actively participated in some student union activities.

It stands to reason that this kind of orientation activity is voluntary for ordinary students to come, while members of the student council should have to participate. But in this orientation activity, there was still no Xiao Yao in the team of old students who welcomed the new students, which also made some of the new students who came to report feel disappointed again.

In fact, not only the freshmen who came to report, but even the sophomore acting students also did not see Xiao Yao after the start of school. Because Xiao Yao asked the school for leave after coming to the school to go through the reporting procedures. Since Xiao Yao has not lived in the dormitory of the school since the beginning of this school year, and he does not have to carry luggage to the dormitory, even the two former roommates in the class who have a good relationship with Xiao Yao have not seen Xiao Yao.

The reason for Xiao Yao's leave is still related to the recent earthquake in Wuyou County. This time, he received an invitation from CCTV to go to Yanjing to participate in CCTV's disaster relief party. Xiao Yao took a lot of leave when he participated in "Singer" last semester, but the final final results were still among the best in the department, and this time it was an extremely powerful reason to take a leave of absence to participate in the CCTV disaster relief party, and the school naturally granted him leave without hesitation.

After the rescue work is over, the next step is to prepare for the post-disaster reconstruction work, even the "Baoli" fashion magazine enterprises have organized fundraising activities to contribute to the reconstruction of the earthquake-stricken area, CCTV, as a national television station, will not be indifferent. In fact, CCTV has already begun to plan this disaster relief party, but because CCTV's party has high specifications, there are many celebrities invited, it is more difficult to organize and coordinate, and there are more and more complicated things that need to be arranged, so the time to hold it is slightly later.

Xiao Yao is naturally obliged to contribute to the disaster area. Even the charity party held by fashion magazines has been there, and Xiao Yao naturally has no reason to refuse to participate in such an influential disaster relief party as CCTV.

Although Xiao Yao did not sing at the charity gala of "Baoli", he planned to release a disaster relief song long before attending the charity gala. Now that he has received an invitation from CCTV's disaster relief party, Xiao Yao also plans to leave the song for CCTV's party before it is made public. It's just that the disaster relief song prepared by Xiao Yao is a new song sung by men and women, and it was originally planned to find Fan Linxuan from his studio to sing with himself, but the program team of the CCTV disaster relief party did not agree to let Xiao Yao and Fan Linxuan perform together at the party.

As the only star who has participated in the disaster relief work on the ground, Xiao Yao is the key inviter of this CCTV disaster relief party. As a personal participant in the rescue work, the party arranged an on-site interview with him, allowing him to talk about his personal feelings during the rescue in the disaster area. Because of such a special identity, the program team also gave Xiao Yao the treatment that only a national-level old artist has, that is, he can perform a program alone at the party. There is no problem that Xiao Yao's song to be performed is an original new song, it is a chorus song, and there is no problem with adding a female singer to perform together, but there is a problem with performing on stage with Fan Linxuan.

Although Fan Linxuan is also a star who has been to the Spring Festival Gala, this disaster relief party is not a literary evening, there are only more than a dozen songs in the program list, and there is no dance and cross talk sketch music program, and the performance opportunities of stars are very limited. Many of the top singers of the big names can only participate in the chorus, and there is no separate opportunity to perform. Xiao Yao has a special identity and a special contribution in this incident, no matter what his fame and status are, the program team gave him a chance to perform alone, and other big-name stars couldn't say anything. But Fan Linxuan can't do it, if Fan Linxuan goes up to sing with Xiao Yao, other top singers who are much stronger than her in terms of fame and strength will definitely have opinions.

The program team will not accept Xiao Yao's reasons such as saying that this song is only suitable for Fan Linxuan's voice. If you Xiao Yao think that Fan Linxuan is the most suitable song, okay, when this song is released, you will cooperate with Fan Linxuan to record the official version, this program team doesn't care. But the disaster relief party is not a singing competition, nor is it a concert, its symbolic meaning is greater than the actual auditory enjoyment, you Xiao Yao who performs with at the disaster relief party, this program team will be in charge. They gave Xiao Yao a list of top female singers in China of various styles and types, and Xiao Yao could only choose from the female singers on the list they gave at the party.

In this matter, Xiao Yao did not willfully argue with CCTV, and was very cooperative in choosing a female singer who he thought was more suitable to cooperate with him among the female singers given by the program team.

In addition to limiting a scope of cooperation objects in Xiao Yao's performance, the program team gave Xiao Yao a lot of freedom in the content of this program. not only agreed that Xiao Yao could sing the new songs he created, but even the stage design of the entire show was delegated to Xiao Yao, as long as they watched it during the final rehearsal. Of course, this is also because the people in the program team know Xiao Yao's ability, and his consistent performance on the stage makes the program team have full confidence in him.

Since the program team gave him the right to design his own stage performance, Xiao Yao was not polite. It just so happened that there were some other things on hand that could be used to match the performance of this choral song at the disaster relief party, so after going through the reporting procedures on the first day of school, Xiao Yao directly asked the school for leave and concentrated on preparing for the performance of this disaster relief party.
