Chapter 952 Begins!

Academician Chen Shangran is a well-known educator in China, who has devoted his life to education in China, and is very admired in China and has a very high social status.

"I heard that this charity gala seems to be different from previous charity galas, this year's charity gala, there will be an antique auction link, and all the proceeds from the auction will be donated to Hope Primary School. Wang Lin said lightly.

"Auction antiques?" Hu Yu glanced at Wang Lin, and then at Ma Xiaoyun and Ma Teng, but there was no surprise between these two people, it seems that these two people have already known about it.

"This charity gala is a bit interesting!" Hu Yu said with a smile.

Although Hu Yu doesn't like antiques very much, it's still okay to do a good deed!

Subsequently, Hu Yu, Ma Xiaoyun, Ma Teng and Wang Lin began to chat, of course, most of the topics they talked about were some business things.

Time passed little by little, and soon, half an hour passed, and this charity party was finally about to start.

"Your Excellency Hu Yu, Mr. Ma Xiaoyun, Mr. Wang Lin, Mr. Ma Teng, please move!" a waiter came to the side of several people and said quite politely.

Hu Yu and the others didn't say anything, and followed the waiter directly.

They knew that they were the protagonists of this charity gala, and sitting in a corner was indeed too much.

It didn't take long for the waiter to bring the five people to the C position, and it is worth mentioning that Hu Yu and Ma Xiaoyun, Wang Lin, and Ma Teng are still neighbors.

Not long after they sat down, the charity gala began.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the charity gala held by Academician Chen Shangran, and now, let us welcome Academician Chen Shangran to the stage with the warmest applause!"

"Bang bang!" burst into applause.

Not long after, an old man with gray hair walked up to the rostrum, this man was about 1.7 meters, full of gorgeous hair, his face was full of wrinkles, and there were many age spots!

However, the old man's complexion was very good, his face was ruddy, and his back was still so straight despite his age.

Seeing the old man, Hu Yu immediately felt respect!

The old man came to the microphone, tried the tone, and then said directly: "First of all, on behalf of all the students of Hope Primary School, thank you for coming, thank you very much!"

After the old man finished speaking, he bowed directly to the rich people in the audience.

Hu Yu and others immediately applauded, and many people said that this was the right thing.

"I am very happy to see so many people coming to participate in the charity gala held by the old man today, because I have seen a lot of kind-hearted people, and it is because of you that the future of our China will be better. ”

"Superfluous words, polite words, I won't talk about the old man, I don't like to engage in formalism, old man, now, let's get into today's topic, first of all, the first item we auction is a landscape painting!"

Chen Shangran nodded at the staff and motioned for him to take out the landscape painting.

Soon, a sexy beauty came up with a plate, and in this plate, there was a painting scroll.

Behind the beauties, there are also two beauties, they are wearing decent cheongsams and coiled hair, quite like the ladies of ancient times, not only beautiful, but also gentle temperament.

At Chen Shangran's suggestion, the two beauties opened the landscape painting.

When the landscape painting was opened, there was a sound in the audience.

"This, this is a landscape painting by the great painter Sun Teng of the Tang Dynasty, if I remember correctly, this painting should be one of Mr. Chen Shangran's favorite works!"

"Oh my God, Academician Chen Shangran is really a bodhisattva, and even took out his favorite landscape paintings, he is really a great man!"

"I didn't say it, admire Academician Chen Shangran, we will never reach his realm!"

After Hu Yu heard the exclamations of these rich people, he was also respectful, and at the same time, his eyes looked at Chen Shangran with more and more respect.

In all fairness, if it were him, he wouldn't auction off his favorite things just to raise money for the students of Hope Primary School.

Hu Yu thinks he is a good person, but he doesn't think he is a saint, but Chen Shangran in front of him already has a trace of the rudiments of a saint.

At this time, Chen Shangran spoke.

When he looked at this landscape painting, there was a trace of reluctance in his eyes, but this reluctance was quickly replaced by resoluteness.

"As you can see, this landscape painting is the Tang Dynasty great painter Sun Teng's master of the green mountains and green water, the appraisal price of this landscape painting is 30 million, we will start the auction from 30 million, each increase shall not be less than 100,000, the proceeds of this auction will be donated to Hope Primary School!"

"Now, the auction begins!"

As Chen Shangran's voice fell, someone immediately bid for it.

"Academician Chen Shangran, donating to Hope Primary School is a good thing, we are willing to do it, I am willing to contribute 35 million!"

Driven by this person, many wealthy people began to bid.

"Thirty-six million!"

"Thirty-seven million!"

……

After a while, the price soared to 40 million, and the price continued to soar.

If it was at auction, this picture of green mountains and green waters would only be auctioned for 40 million Chinese dollars at most, but now, it has been called 45 million.

"Wang Lin, aren't you bidding?" asked Hu Yu.

As far as he knew, Wang Lin liked antique calligraphy and paintings, and he should be able to bargain.

Wang Lin smiled slightly and said, "Hu Yu, aren't you also called, it's very early!"

In this regard, Hu Yu stopped talking.

It's really early now, and the first ones to call are all some little rich people, so let these little rich people warm up first, yes.

However, when the price reached 45 million, the pace of bidding began to slow down significantly.

"Fifty million!" Finally, Wang Lin opened his mouth to shout the price, directly from 47 million to 50 million, an increase of 3 million.

Hearing Wang Lin's bidding, Chen Shangran's eyes lit up, and he actually said: "Mr. Wang Lin asked for 50 million, is there anything higher?"

"Is there anything higher?" Chen Shangran's voice began to change in timbre.

Because 50 million is already beyond his expected price, originally, he thought that this map of green mountains and green waters could only sell for 45 million at most, but now, it has reached 50 million.

The extra five million is a complete surprise!

"Five thousand and one million!" At this moment, another voice sounded, who was Hu Yu?

"Hu Yu, you also like calligraphy and painting?" asked Wang Lin.

"Hehe, I understand a little, but this is for the sake of the students of Hope Primary School, I thought, what should I do for them. ”

"Fifty-three million!" Wang Lin nodded, and then shouted out a price again.

"Fifty-five million!" Hu Yu also directly raised the price by two million.
