0800 Charity Gala
Guo Jialin was surprised by the familiarity of Ye Chaoying and Tang Ding.
Guo Jialin is the young owner of Hongtaifu, Hongtaifu is the world's factory, it sounds like a bull, but in fact, it is the hard-earned money that squeezes labor, and its own profit margin is extremely low, although there are hundreds of thousands of employees in the world, it seems to be amazing, in fact, compared to the Ye family's gambling empire, whether it is strength, influence, or profit margin, it is not a grade.
Moreover, Ye's is known as the king of gambling, and the black and white resources under his control are far from being comparable to sweatshops like Hongtaifu.
Guo Jialin has always wanted to get to know Ye Chaoying, he has heard that Ye Chaoying is the favorite daughter of the gambling king, and he has dreamed more than once that he can kiss Fang Ze, or marry Ye Chaoying directly, but the dream is always beautiful, but the reality is skinny.
Don't say that Guo Jialin doesn't have this opportunity, even if he has a chance, Guo Jialin also knows that Ye Chaoying doesn't look down on him at all.
Because Ye Chaoying is a real celebrity, and Guo Jialin is a young lady at best.
I heard that this kid is a little star from the mainland? Could it be that Ye Chaoying is chasing stars?
It shouldn't be, haven't you heard of which star Ye Chaoying has chased?
But this kid looks like he is underbeaten, which star will look like this?
Ye Chaoying had just arrived, she took two glasses of red wine and handed Tang Ding a glass, Ye Chaoying said to Milai apologetically, "I can change it with you, oh, can you please move it to the side a little?"
In fact, when Milai saw Ye Chaoying chatting with Tang Dingre, she naturally gave up a place for Ye Chaoying. Ye Chaoying actually already had a place, but she still asked for Milai's help.
There is a hierarchy in the world, and Milai knows that he and Ye Chaoying are not the same class at all, which can be seen from Ye Chaoying's powerful aura.
Ye Chaoying's aura is very strong, otherwise he wouldn't have come over, and Guo Jialin, who was still arrogant just now, and other rich young people couldn't help but stand up.
Ye Chaoying chatted with Tang Ding as if no one was around, so that Guo Jialin and other rich young people who wanted to talk but couldn't get up scratched their ears and cheeks anxiously.
In fact, Guo Jialin just said hello to Ye Chaoying, but I don't know if Ye Chaoying didn't hear it or what, anyway, Guo Jialin wanted to use this hard-won opportunity again when she didn't hear it.
"By the way, I haven't asked yet, are these all your friends?" After chatting for a while, Ye Chaoying finally remembered Mi Lai and the others next to Tang Ding.
"Well, this is Milley, a new friend I just met. β
The meaning of Tang Ding's words is obvious, only Milai is my friend, and the rest are not counted.
When Guo Jialin heard Ye Chaoying's question, he couldn't wait to grab Tang Ding's ear and say: Don't forget to introduce me. But Tang Ding didn't bother to mention it at all.
"Oh, I think Miss Milai is very friendly, by the way, what does Miss Milai do?" Ye Chaoying asked casually.
"I'm a singer. β
"That's a coincidence, our Grand Lisboa is preparing to shoot a promotional video, well, I need a heroine, is Miss Milley interested?" Ye Chaoying said this, half of it was for Tang Ding's face. But this promo is definitely there.
"Huh?" Mi Lai was a little excited, and even Wen Qian and Lin Xue around her were even more excited, they couldn't wait for Mi Lai to agree quickly, but they didn't know if they would have their own role at that time.
"I've never acted, I'm afraid,"
"It's okay, it's not acting, it's just a promotional video, I think your temperament is very compatible. "Ye Chaoying's other half really feels that Milai has the temperament of a girl next door.
Although gambling is also cheating, this fraud should be done perfectly, so that people can't feel cheated after being cheated. For example, choosing an image spokesperson, not too charming, not too cunning, pure is the best, which helps gamblers think that the casino is a pure place, and it is a pure sister next door who can easily hook up with them when they go, so that even if everyone spends money, they will not feel psychologically uncomfortable.
"Of course, Miss Milley can think about it before giving me an answer. As for the remuneration, Miss Milley can rest assured that it is definitely the price of a first-line movie star, five million, RMB. β
Ye Chaoying's words made Mi Lai feel the huge difference in identity and status.
People say that five million is as normal as eating and drinking, but this five million is undoubtedly a huge amount of money for one of the members of a non-popular group that has just been formed for a year.
Mi Lai communicated with Wen Qian and Lin Xue with his eyes, and then nodded solemnly at Ye Chaoying, "Okay, Miss Ye, we can agree." β
"Okay, that's great, but I'll correct it, I'm talking about the promo video that only invites you, Miss Milley. β
Ye Chaoying's words immediately pronounced the death sentence of Wen Qian and Lin Xue: the two have no chance in this promotional video.
"Oh, that's right. "Milley's interest is not particularly high.
Ye Chaoying asked Mi Lai to be the propaganda ambassador, although it was a temporary idea, but it was not without purpose. Ye Chaoying hopes to make Milai realize the difference between herself and herself, especially in the competition for Tang Ding, there is a huge gap between her and herself: what she gives at will can change her fate.
Ye Chaoying's careful thinking is not something that anyone can guess.
As soon as we finished talking about cooperation, the banquet began.
Sir He changed into a shiny tuxedo again, and accompanied by two tall beauties, he elegantly came to the stage in the middle of the field, "Ladies and gentlemen, good evening! Today is the day of the establishment of our 123 Charity Foundation, thank you for giving me Lao He this face, you can come first of all to affirm my Lao He person, thank you!"
Sir Ho is a well-known person on Hong Kong Island, although Hong Kong Island has returned, but Sir Ho's title is unique, and the Ho family is a famous family on Hong Kong Island, and the business is also very successful, and there are many people who support it. Of course, this is also due to the elegant environment of The Peninsula itself, but there are at least 20 hotels of the same level on Hong Kong Island as The Peninsula, but few of them have better business than The Peninsula.
"In fact, in my heart, the 123 Charity Foundation has been conceived for a long time, and for our He family, we have long had the intention of becoming a public welfare fund, but unfortunately it has not been able to happen, but today because of everyone's concerted efforts, we have our 123 Foundation. Thank you for your trust in me and the appointment of me as the first chairman of the foundation, and we at the 123 Foundation will implement the purpose of helping the needy and making the 123 Foundation play a more beneficial role. Here, on behalf of my Ho family, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all of you for your kindness, thank you for the charity sale for the 123 Foundation today, and now we will carry out the theme auction of our charity banquet today. We have invited our special auctioneer, Mr. Lam Wing-shing, a special auctioneer from Christie's Hong Kong Island Auction House, please!"
A polite man with gold-rimmed glasses, after shaking hands with Sir Ho, came to the stage, first briefly introduced himself, and then started the auction.
"The first piece in today's auction is a coral screen donated by Mr. Ho Man Sheng, this coral screen is 3000*1800* 1800, is composed of 32 pieces of coral, the average size of each piece of coral is 0.3 square meters, as we all know, the size of the coral is not too big, and this coral screen is composed of so many corals, and so large, this can be called a national treasure, the starting price of this coral screen is 35 million, each increase is not less than 1 million, well, now it is a bid. β
As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, the auction officially began.
Since this is the first lot, all the auction proceeds will be credited to the foundation, and all the people who come today are supporting the foundation, although the price of this first lot is high, but the bidding is relatively fierce, a total of more than a dozen bids, and finally sold for 58 million, which was auctioned by the Xue Jiayan family, a wealthy family on Hong Kong Island.
"Well, the first lot was auctioned for a high price of more than 50 million, thank you for your generosity, let me introduce today's second lot, the second lot is provided by the Kwok Shau Kee family on Hong Kong Island, is a jade necklace, this jade necklace is composed of as many as 21 jadeite, of which the jade as a pendant is a rare red jadeite, this red jadeite water has reached the glass species, and what is even more amazing is that the remaining 20 pieces of jadeite are at least the ice level, it can be said that any piece of jadeite can be called a rare treasureγ Well, the starting price of this jade necklace is 12 million, and the price increase is not less than 500,000 each time, okay, let's start bidding. β
This jade necklace is indeed beautiful, and the eyes of the women who see this chain are all shining, but there are not many people who have the ability to take this kind of necklace as their own, and there is no general strength, who can wear a necklace of one or two hundred million?
Of course, this was just Milley's idea, in fact, after the auction began, the bidding for this necklace was extremely fierce, with as many as ten people participating in the bidding, and the bidding has also increased from 12 million to 19 million now, and it will continue to rise.
It is conceivable that the final transaction price of this jade necklace will be higher than 20 million.
"Twenty-eight million!" Although Ye Chaoying has not made a bid, he directly increased nine million as soon as he made a bid, blocking several people who had thoughts about this necklace.
"Okay, Miss Ye Chaoying Ye of the Grand Lisboa bid 28 million, is there a higher bid? If not, this rare jade necklace will belong to Miss Ye of Aodao. β
"Twenty-eight million for the first time, twenty-eight million for the second time, twenty-eight million for the third time, deal!"
In the end, Ye Chaoying won the red jade necklace for 28 million.
As soon as he made a casual move, it was nearly 30 million, and the strength of the Aodao Ye family could be seen.
But this is really just a drizzle for the Ye family.
Ye Chaoying's bid is not on behalf of himself, but on behalf of the old gambling king Ye Zhihan, anyway, it is a charity activity, since he is here, he has to participate, even if he donates 30 million to the Ye family, he will not blink an eye, not to mention buying back a jade necklace.
Mi Lai was stunned by Ye Chaoying's strength, Wen Qian and Lin Xue's envy of Ye Chaoying needless to mention, even the rich young Guo Jialin was also envious.
Although Guo Jialin is nominally the fourth son of the Guo family and comes from a wealthy family, the funds he can use are at best 300,000 pocket money at the beginning of each month, and the money is generally spent before the end of the month. Guo Jialin had never saved a million in cash, and when he saw Ye Chaoying's 28 million move, he didn't blink an eye, and his admiration for Miss Ye in his heart was even more like a surging river.
