Chapter 255: I'm Rich, I Like Me Wayward
Another show ended, and Su Han took the stage again.
"The following lot is very meaningful, I can't estimate its value, and no one can give it a ......"
Su Han said mysteriously, and everyone's eyes widened. The model has not yet taken the stage.
“…… It's a piece of clothing, a handmade piece of clothing......" Su Han continued to explain.
Then, two models walked to the front of the stage holding a white dress similar to a wedding dress.
"I need to explain the origin of this garment, which was made by 28 mentally handicapped children from Qizhi School over a period of three months, stitch by stitch. These children are not perfect, so the clothes they make are not perfect, but I hope that the caring people here can make this love perfect. ”
With Su Han's introduction, the two models also showed off their clothes. It was a long bandeau gown with small pearls on the chest. If you talk about the style, it is indeed very simple, and the workmanship is also very rough. But the host said that this is handmade by mentally handicapped children, and it would be nice to be like a piece of clothing.
In fact, according to the arrangement, one of the models will wear this dress for display, but when trying to wear it, it was found that the workmanship of the clothes was really poor, and the model was afraid that the clothes would fall apart in the process of wearing the display, so they simply led the clothes to the stage for display.
These, naturally, are off-topic.
"We don't have a starting price for this dress, so you are free to bid. Su Han finally said.
"Three hundred!"
He is also the chairman of Xincheng Trading Co., Ltd., almost every time the auction comes up, he will actively bid for it, of course, except for the first painting, the subsequent ones have withdrawn early.
"Thank you Chairman Xia, three hundred, is there anyone else who is higher?"
Su Han is very happy, because the auction is most afraid of the cold field, especially this dress, from the bottom of his heart, compared to painting and carving, for buyers, it is completely a piece of garbage, and it can really only be a meaning. It's good that someone can shout out the price of three hundred.
"Five hundred!"
Well?
Song Qian heard the voice ringing in his ears, looked sideways, and found that it was You Dawei who was following the bidding.
For You Dawei, he has to ask for a price, his younger brother is a little mentally retarded, of course, it is not serious, so he is only in the second grade of primary school at the age of 12. Many people don't know how difficult it is for these mentally handicapped children to be able to make such an "ugly" dress. He couldn't let it be sold cheaply.
"Eight hundred!"
Someone else followed and shouted three hundred.
"A thousand!"
"One thousand and five!"
"Three thousand!"
You Dawei suddenly doubled the price of one thousand and a half. There was an uproar on the field. Everyone looked at the young man sitting in the second row, with dark skin and inconspicuous skin.
For this scene, not only the host Su Han, but even the president of the Charity Federation, who once strongly opposed the use of this dress as a lot, was also excited. For such an ugly piece of clothing, someone can pay 3,000 yuan, unexpected, completely unexpected!
"Mr. You's bid price is three thousand, is there anything higher than three thousand?" Su Han said excitedly, "Three thousand for the first time." ”
“…… Three thousand eight. ”
"Wow, it seems that Chairman Xia of Xincheng Trading Co., Ltd. also has a soft spot for this dress. Three thousand eight for the first time. ”
"Three thousand eight for the second time! Is there anything higher than three thousand eight? It seems that this dress with the love of 28 children is about to be taken down by our chairman Xia again. ”
"Five thousand!" You Dawei gritted his teeth and directly raised the price again.
"Whew-" The chairman of Xincheng Trading Co., Ltd., who had shouted three thousand eight before, quietly let out a sigh of relief. He immediately regretted it after shouting the three thousand eight. Three-thousand-eight, what's the use of buying a bunch of scrap cloth? You can't even hang it up and display it.
If you want to say that the painting you bought before, you can still tell people that this is the work of Mr. Chen Zixun, who is the heir of intangible cultural heritage, and is famous. But how do you tell people about this dress when you buy it? Say that you are kind and have bought handicrafts for mentally handicapped children? Or do you spend 3,000?
Luckily, someone took over.
As You Dawei shouted out five thousand, there was an uproar on the field again.
"It seems that this Mr. You is bound to get this dress. Five thousand for the first time ......"
"Ten thousand. ”
Who shouted 10,000 yuan? Such a dress is 10,000 yuan? It is a truly handmade high-end dress, and it is worth 10,000 yuan. And the price of 10,000 yuan is already the highest price of ten lots at present. This is not a masterpiece, this can be said to be a defective product with great defects.
Following the voice, everyone found this person who suddenly increased the price from five thousand to ten thousand, sitting in the middle of the second row, with an unfamiliar face, very young.
"Mr. Song bid 10,000 yuan for this outfit, is there anything higher than 10,000 yuan?" Su Han said excitedly.
At the same time, Zhu Xinlai almost wanted to get up from his seat. He's excited, he's really excited. The work provided by the Qizhi School, which was auctioned in the middle, was the first proposal he proposed, but was opposed by almost everyone.
Fear of cold spots, fear of low prices, fear of causing bad social repercussions, and may even directly dampen the enthusiasm of those mentally disabled children. In short, any uncertain factor can lead to the failure of the entire auction, or at least imperfection.
Although children with intellectual disabilities have disabilities, they also want to contribute to society, and their ability is small, but their love is still there.
This is what Zhu Xinlai once said when he went to Qizhi School to give them an open class: "I hope that someone can say thank you to me." ”
Someone can say thank you to themselves, how simple it is for the average healthy person. Give up a seat, help lift something, and get a casual "thank you" from the other party. But it's difficult for those with intellectual disabilities. In their behavioral dictionary, the only way to say thank you is to others.
The burden of society is the label they put on themselves. When the society pays more attention to them and cares for them, their inferiority complex will become worse.
Therefore, Zhu Xinlai came up with the idea of asking others to say "thank you" to these mentally handicapped children, so that they could also really do something for them.
Sure enough, he didn't make the wrong choice, let alone look at the wrong person! At least, it was the wisest choice for Song Qian to change the auction originally scheduled for the evening to the morning.
Of course, Song Qian actually didn't want to shout 10,000, he couldn't wait to shout 80,000,300,000. Just because these things are so cheap, and everything is auctioned in the future, it may not be enough to make up a million. However, it is important to complete the task, and this face is also important.
For something that people think is expensive for hundreds of yuan, he wants to suddenly shout out 100,000 yuan, which always makes people feel that he is suspected of pretending to be too much.
Moreover, in addition to this step, he has the next step - to give this dress away.
