Chapter 1367: Meet an Acquaintance Again
Chapter 1367: Meet an acquaintance again
……
After sending the waiter away, Liu Dong passed back the coat he had taken off.
"Boss, are you going to go to Christie's auction?"
"That's right, it's okay to stay in the room anyway, so you might as well go shopping. ”
Moreover, Golconda diamonds are known for their perfect color and flawless purity, and if they weigh more than 100 carats, such a diamond can undoubtedly leave its own name in the history of diamonds in the world. Such a precious natural wonder, Liu Dong is very interested in turning him into the eighth national treasure diamond of more than 100 carats in the Old Summer Palace Diamond Museum!
"Do you need me to come with you?"
"No, you go out and buy an SUV, replenish some supplies, and get ready, maybe we'll be out of here in a few days!"
This time, Liu Dong did not come for tourism, but for the relics of the Buddha Shakyamuni. Therefore, the major Buddhist temples in India are his real purpose.
"Got it, boss!"
"Let's go!"
After the two walked out of the room, they separated after coming to the lobby! Luo Di went out to prepare the vehicles and supplies needed for the long journey, and Liu Dong asked where the auction would be held, and then found it himself.
"Sir, please show me the invitation!"
When Liu Dong walked to the door of the auction hall, he was unexpectedly stopped by the staff.
Although the four white strong men standing in front of the door together were not the opponents of his palm, Liu Dongke had no intention of breaking in.
Without him, you can't do it!
"My name is Liu Dong, and I'll tell you the head of Christie's in India, and I think he'll teach you what to do next!"
Listening to the plain words of the young yellow man opposite, Grande, who was standing in front of the door, was stunned for a moment, and thoughts such as "this man is sick, who does he think he is" and so on crossed his mind.
But being able to be sent to the door by Christie's to greet those powerful and wealthy businessmen who came here to participate in the auction, Grande was naturally not a fool who did not understand anything.
After carefully looking up and down the tall young man in front of him, Grande quickly noticed the extraordinary superior temperament on the other party, and from the other party's dress, he could see that this young man was extraordinary.
So, although the other party's words made him feel a little ridiculous, Grande did not speak out in a bad way. And the name Liu Dong always gave him a sense of familiarity.
"Please wait a minute!"
After saying politely, Grande quickly took out a black Nokia phone from his pocket and quickly dialed it.
"Mr. Flac......!"
"Grande, you know, I hate it when someone calls while they're at work!"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Frank, but I have a gentleman here who calls himself 'Liu Dong' who wants to participate in our auction at the hot spring hotel tonight!"
"Does he have an invitation?" said Frank's tone with some routine.
"Nope!"
"No, Grande, don't tell me you've been working at Christie's for 7 years and you don't know what to do when you encounter this situation......!
Listening to the blind voice on the phone, Grande had a wry smile on his face. But when he turned to face Liu Dong, his expression still returned to calm.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Liu, I'm afraid I can't let you participate in this auction......!"
As soon as Grande finished speaking, he heard the phone he had just put in his pocket ring again.
"Mr. Frank, I have listened to your orders and let that Mr. Liu Dong leave ......!"
"Oh, no, Grande, listen to me! You can't let the other go no matter what, no matter what method you use. Of course, the premise is that you must respect, no, respect each other. I'll go over ......!"
"Hey, Mr. Frank, Mr. Frank......?"
Listening to the blind sound of 'beep' on the phone, Grande, who was holding the phone in his hand, looked at the yellow-skinned young man in front of him with a leisurely expression and a slight smile on his face, and his face couldn't help but show surprise and scrutiny.
It was the first time he had heard Frank, the manager of Christie's India, so excited that he even panicked when he heard someone's name.
"Can I go in now?"
"Oh, oh, of course, of course ......!" Grande, who reacted, replied again and again, "Mr. Liu, can you please wait a little, our manager is on his way here, and he hopes to receive you personally!"
Looking at the respectful and somewhat nervous look on the face of the middle-aged white man in front of him, as well as the expectant look in his eyes, Liu Dong hesitated a little and said, "I don't want to miss the finale Golconda diamond at the auction!"
"Rest assured, the auction has just begun, and the finale of the Golconda diamond 'Crystal Heart' will be auctioned in two hours, so you have time!"
"Alright then!"
"Please come with me to the VIP room for a short rest, our manager will be there in a moment!"
"I've arrived!" With a hurried voice, a middle-aged man with a slightly fat figure, wearing a black suit, brown hair, blue eyes, and white skin strode towards Liu Dong with a young secretary. Moreover, when he was five or six meters away, he had already taken the initiative to stretch out his right hand, "Mr. Liu, I didn't expect you to really come, welcome, welcome!"
"You're polite, I don't know what your Excellency is called?" After shaking hands with the other party briefly, Liu Dong said.
"My name is Ross Frank, I'm the manager of Christie's India, and it's a pleasure to meet Mr. Liu here!"
Frank lowered his posture. Of course, it is inevitable to lower his posture, because he knows very well who this person is standing in front of him!
The world's richest man in Xinke has a personal fortune of nearly $90 billion, and his assets are more than $350 billion! The Hanhua Group has been rated by the Wall Street Times as one of the world's top 30 most influential consortia, second only to Japan's veteran Mitsui and Mitsubishi, as well as the rising star 'Sanhe', surpassing Sumitomo, Seremban and Daiichi Quanye!
The person who controls such a huge asset has a social status that surpasses that of the national leaders of the vast majority of countries in the world. Wherever he goes, he is the guest of honor of dignitaries and powerful families from all over the world.
What's more, the person who holds such power is his 'Frank Ross', a 'god' figure that the manager of Christie's India does not dare to offend, and even looks up to.
"Mr. Frank, I'm just as glad to meet you. But now I want to participate in the auction even more!" Liu Dong said.
"Of course, your request is the purpose of our service!
After nodding, Liu Dong followed the other party into the auction hall.
At this moment, Grande, who was standing on the side, looked at Ross Frank, who was high up in his impression and full of the pride of an old gentleman in England, as if he was the lowest servant of a medieval aristocratic family, respectfully, and even a little grovelling, guiding the young man surnamed Liu into the auction hall, his eyes were full of disbelief!
However, he also understood one thing through this matter. The social status of the yellow-skinned young man who called himself Liu Dong was much higher than he had imagined.
"Liu Dong, Liu Dong, it's a Chinese name when you hear it! But is there such a person among Chinese celebrities?" Grande, who usually didn't care much about the news in the newspaper, slowly had doubts in his mind.
Not to mention the confusion in Grande's heart.
At this moment, after Ross Frank personally led Liu Dong into the auction hall, he attracted more and more people's attention.
Especially now, after being reprinted and reported by Time Magazine and Forbes magazine, as well as countless media around the world, Liu Dong's name and appearance are almost engraved in the minds of 90% of the world's rich and powerful. Even if they have never met the richest man in the world. Even if all Chinese look the same in the impression of whites and blacks, and even Indians, they still remember Liu Dong's appearance.
Therefore, when I saw such a young new world's richest man slowly coming, the commotion in the hall became more and more intense. At one point, even the auction on the stage had to be suspended.
"Mr. Liu, why don't we prepare a separate table for you!"
Looking at the eight round tables next to the auction table, which were basically full of wealthy people participating in the auction, Ross Frank frowned and hurriedly said.
"Don't bother, just have a vacant seat for me to sit on!" Liu Dong took a few steps towards the left-hand side, and then sat down on the only vacant seat next to the round table where only two people were sitting!
"You two, you don't mind if I sit here, right?" Looking at the two familiar faces in front of him, Liu Dong smiled.
He didn't expect that he had just been separated from the other party for only a few months, but he would meet again in New Delhi! Thinking of this, Liu Dong sighed a little in his heart at the wonder of the world!
"Of course we don't mind, it's an honor to sit at the same table with the famous Mr. Liu Dong!" said Saeed Abdullah.
He didn't recognize the richest man in the new world in front of him, the powerful 'Muñoz' who had been with him for a few days in Egypt a few months ago and had broken into the sacrificial city of 'Herakpus' together!
"Mr. Liu, have we met somewhere?" Nancy Abdullah suddenly asked after looking Liu Dong up and down for a while.
"Have we indeed met?" Liu Dong smiled slightly.
I have some sighs in my heart that women are far better than most men in their observation of details.
"Oh, where?" Nancy's eyes lit up and she said quickly.
"At Columbia University, I had a punch for the martial arts club! You seemed to be on the side!"
Liu Dong's words made Nancy's face show a hint of abruptness, "I remember! You are Zhao Jing's friend!"
"I'm his boyfriend's friend, to be exact!" Liu Dong laughed.
"It seems that we are quite fated to meet here again!" said Nancy, stretching out her small white palm towards Liu Dong.
"It's really fateful!"
Liu Dong was not an abrupt beauty, and after holding the other party's soft and boneless little hand and shaking it briefly, he let go.
"I didn't expect the two of you to actually know each other, this is really surprising and surprising news!" Said suddenly smiled after looking back and forth between his sister and Liu Dong with a hint of strangeness in his eyes.
"If it weren't for this fate, I'm afraid I wouldn't have taken the initiative to sit here!"
"Mr. Liu, this is your bidding board!" At this time, Rose Frank hurriedly walked over with a bidding sign marked 188 in his hand.
"I see, thanks!"
After seeing that Liu Dong did not mean to be angry in his expression, Frank breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Because Liu Dong came too suddenly, he really didn't have a higher bidding sign in his hand!
"Then I won't bother you, and if you need anything, you can call me at any time!
Following the direction of Frank's finger and glancing at a chair next to the wall opposite, Liu Dong nodded, "I know, thank you Frank!"
"Mr. Liu, that's so polite! If you're okay, then I'll leave first!"
"Well, it's okay!" waved his hand, and after letting Frank leave, his eyes quickly glanced at the Abdul siblings beside him, and after smiling at the thought on Nancy's face that had not disappeared, his attention shifted to the auction table.
