216, auction in progress
First of all, she is the vice chairman of Tahoe Sky, the entertainment company with the highest market value in the Chinese entertainment industry, and one of the major shareholders of Tahoe Sky.
In addition, Wang Langsha founded the best-selling fashion magazine "Langsha" herself, and she herself has a non-negligible influence in the fashion circle.
Wang Langsha walked onto the stage, took the microphone from the hands of the staff, and then spoke as the host of this charity dinner.
As for the content of the speech, it is nothing more than a clichΓ© such as thanking the guests, and of course, there are some more positive things about charity.
After Wang Langsha spoke, there was a warm applause at the scene.
"Alas, in fact, I still want to say a lot of things, but Sister Langsha has already finished speaking, in this case, I won't talk nonsense. β
Wei Hai returned to the center of the stage, smiled self-deprecatingly, and then announced loudly: "Next, tonight's charity auction has officially begun, and Miss Manners is invited to present the first lot of tonight." β
After the words fell, a female hostess dressed in a traditional Chinese cheongsam walked onto the stage with a tray and a pair of running shoes in the tray.
"Okay, everyone has seen the first lot tonight, I guess, now many people are wondering, how can it be a pair of shoes, now please look at the big screen......"
With Wei Hai's words, the big screen behind the stage lit up, it was the picture of the Olympic track and field, the competition event was the 110-meter hurdles, and the Chinese player Liu Daxiang took the lead, leaving a group of black people behind, and was the first to cross the finish line, and then, he jumped up excitedly, looking up to the sky and howling to celebrate.
This is a historic moment in the history of Chinese sports, and it is also a moment that has excited countless Chinese people.
On the big screen, the picture freezes, giving a big close-up, which is Liu Daxiang's feet, to be exact, the running shoes on his feet.
At this time, Wei Hai's voice sounded: "I think everyone has guessed, that's right, the first lot tonight is the pair of combat boots that our Olympic hero Liu Daxiang wore when he won the 110-meter hurdles championship, which witnessed the glory of our Chinese track and field, and saw the rise of our yellow race in sprint events! β
"Well, it's going to be a dollar, and of course, in fact, all the lots tonight are going to be a dollar. β
"Now, everyone can bid!"
Wei Hai announced loudly.
And as his voice landed, someone immediately raised a sign under the stage: "One hundred thousand!"
"Two hundred thousand!"
"Three hundred thousand!"
"Five hundred thousand!!"
ββ¦β¦β
In less than a minute, the pair of running shoes donated by Liu Daxiang was shouted to a price of 500,000 yuan.
"Haha, it seems that everyone is still very interested in the boots of our Olympic heroes, of course, I know that this is actually everyone's love~!"
Wei Hai said with a smile, and at this time, someone began to increase the price again.
"Six hundred thousand!"
"Seven hundred thousand!"
"A million!!"
ββ¦β¦β
After several bidding, a male star directly shouted the price to one million.
"Brother Liang, bid one million, will anyone increase the price??"
The male star's name is Wu Liang, he is a first-line actor, a proper and powerful faction, and has won many awards for actors.
Maybe it was for the sake of giving Wu Liang face, or maybe everyone thought that one million was already very high, and after Wu Liang shouted one million, the scene fell silent.
"Didn't anyone increase the price?"
Wei Hai asked again, but no one answered,
"Okay......
"Once in a million!"
"A million twice!"
"A Million ......"
Wei Hai held the auction hammer in his hand, elongated his voice, and then swept his gaze to the audience again.
"The last chance, no one really raises the price anymore~!"
At the critical moment, Wei Hai suddenly smiled.
Seeing this, everyone in the audience also burst into laughter.
"Old Wei, hurry up and drop the hammer!!"
Wu Liang shouted, of course, this kind of charity auction is not so serious, after all, the funds raised are completely used for charity.
"Okay, a million, three times!!"
Wei Hai finally dropped the hammer, and then announced with a smile: "Congratulations to Brother Liang, for winning the boots of our Olympic hero Liu Daxiang at a price of one million!"
"Please invite Da Xiang and Brother Liang to the stage~!"
According to the past practice, when the donor is present, he or she will hand over the donated item to the buyer on the spot.
So, in a round of applause, Liu Daxiang and Wu Liang walked on the stage one after another, Liu Daxiang signed his name on the pair of running shoes on the spot, and then handed it to Wu Liang for a group photo.
After the first lot was successfully auctioned, Wei Hai immediately began to introduce the second lot, a landscape painting called "A Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers", and the donor was none other than Cao Zechu, who was sitting at the same table as Hu Shuo.
"This painting is our Mr. Cao's collection, and this donation for auction is also a painful love, and we all give Mr. Cao some applause. β
As the president of Wenyu Group, Cao Zechu's status in the entertainment industry naturally goes without saying, so at this moment, Wei Hai found an opportunity and patted his ass.
There was a round of applause at the scene, and Cao Zechu stood up and waved to everyone at the scene.
"I have just said that the starting price of all the lots tonight is one dollar, so the painting of Master Jia donated by Mr. Cao is also one dollar, and the next one, everyone can bid!"
"Three hundred thousand!"
"Five hundred thousand!"
"Eight hundred thousand!!"
ββ¦β¦β
As soon as Wei Hai's voice fell, everyone began to bid enthusiastically, firstly, the value of the painting itself is very high, and secondly, the stars on the scene also have their own little abacus, and taking pictures of the paintings donated by Cao Zechu can be regarded as a way to show favor and pat the sycophants.
Therefore, the competition for this painting is much more fierce than Liu Daxiang's running shoes, after all, the latter is just a sports star and has no resources in the entertainment industry.
Soon, the price of Cao Zechu's donation of this painting soared to 1.5 million.
Hu Shuo didn't study antique calligraphy and painting, and when he saw that everyone was bidding so enthusiastically, he asked Yang Yunyan in a low voice: "Is this painting very valuable?" and that Master Jia, why haven't I heard of it?" β
"That Master Jia is a painter of the late Qing Dynasty and is a bit famous, but the value of the paintings is average. β
Yang Yunyan said disapprerovingly, Yang Wanli likes antique collection or something, so Yang Yunyan also knows a little, in addition, for these wealthy children, learning some knowledge of antique collection is also a compulsory course.
Because of the people at their level, there are many people who like antique collecting, and knowing some relevant knowledge is often helpful for talking about business.
"Oh~!"
Hu Shuo nodded lightly and didn't ask any more.
And while the two were talking, the price of the painting had soared to 2.4 million.
"2.4 million once!"
"2.4 million twice!"
After the price was increased to 2.4 million, the scene was relatively quiet, in fact, the actual value of this painting was about 1.5 million, and now this price is a premium of almost 1 million, which shows that Cao Zechu's face is still very big.
"Is anyone else bidding??"
Wei Hai held the auction hammer in his hand, and his gaze swept over the audience again.
"2.6 million!!"
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in Hu Shuo's ears, and he followed the reputation, and the person who bid turned out to be Lin Qianyu.
For a first-line star like Lin Qianyu, 2.6 million is still acceptable.
And Lin Qianyu's intention to move is also very obvious, and it is clear that it is to curry favor with Cao Zechu.
"Qianyu, this price is too high!"
Cao Zechu shook his head with a wry smile on the side.
"For charity~!"
Lin Qianyu smiled lightly: "Didn't Sister Langsha say just now, all the money tonight will be used to buy school buses for children in poor mountainous areas, and I also want to do my part." β
Lin Qianyu offered a reason that Cao Zechu couldn't refute.
"Qianyu bid 2.6 million!"
"Is anyone else bidding??"
Wei Hai continued to ask with high emotions.
However, no one responded at the scene, in fact, if it weren't for Lin Qianyu's price increase, 2.4 million would have been sold.
"2.6 million once!"
"2,600,000 twice!"
"2.6 million ......"
Wei Hai repeated his old tricks, prolonging his tone again, and at the same time his eyes swept over the scene, and then dropped the hammer: "2.6 million three times!!"
"Congratulations to Qianyu, you successfully took a picture of the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers donated by Mr. Cao!"
"Please take the stage and hand it over~!"
Wei Hai walked to the front of the stage and smiled lightly at Cao Zechu and Lin Qianyu who were sitting in the audience.
Since the seats of the two were next to each other, the two naturally walked on the stage together, and Lin Qianyu naturally grabbed Cao Zechu's arm......
"It seems that the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless~!"
Hu Shuo, who is also a man, can feel that Cao Zechu is actually not happy, but his face does not show too much.
"Lao Cao shouldn't marry a female star. β
Yang Yunyan replied softly.
"I think so. β
Hu Shuo shrugged, generally a real wealthy family rarely marries a female star to enter the door, whether it is another time and space, or here, there are many examples of such and such an actress giving birth to a rich man, but still not being able to enter the door.
"But, wife, your old classmate seems to care about you very much~!"
Hu Shuo added with a grin.
"What, jealous?"
Yang Yunyan looked at Hu Shuo with a smile, of course she knew what Cao Zechu thought about her, the other party not only sent her an invitation to walk the red carpet a few days ago, but before that, she also made excuses to ask Yang Yunyan a few times, but Yang Yunyan refused on the grounds that she was busy with work.
In fact, there are too many men like Cao Zechu around Yang Yunyan, because the entire rich circle knows about Yang Yunyan and her husband's disagreement, after all, a few years ago, Hu Shuo lost billions of dollars and had an affair with Shangguan Yunzhu, which caused a lot of trouble.
Therefore, those men who originally had thoughts about Yang Yunyan were alive in their minds.
However, Yang Yunyan is a person with a very bottom line, although the relationship between him and Hu Shuo is not good, but the marriage between the two is still in existence after all, so Yang Yunyan didn't care about those men.
In addition, there is another reason that Yang Yunyan is indeed too busy, Yang Wanli's health has not been very good in the past few years, almost the entire Wanli Group is pressed on Yang Yunyan alone, she can't wait for herself to have a doppelganger technique, where is the time to think about those messy things!
On the stage, Cao Zechu and Lin Qianyu completed the handover, and then the two returned to their seats together.
