710. Chapter 710: Heart of the Ocean
Wu Qianqian's eyes widened, and her eyes looked particularly bright and moving today, rippling in autumn.
Ling Yun leaned closer, stared at Wu Qianqian's eyes carefully for a while, and suddenly frowned and said:
"I said why are your eyes so big today, it turns out that you have applied eyeshadow and mascara."
Wu Qianqian pushed Ling Yun away, and said a little unhappily: "Chairman, why do you always talk about my outfit today, do you feel that my outfit today is weird?" ”
Ling Yun smiled lightly and said: "Will I be so bored today, you are dressed very well today, I just feel a little curious, you let me witness, it turns out that the girl like Qingshui Hibiscus, under the packaging of modern technology products, is indeed full of temptation and charm, very good, very good." ”
"Today, since I entered this auction room, I always feel like you look at me like you look at an orangutan in a zoo." Wu Qianqian pursed her lips and said.
Ling Yun shook his head and said very seriously:
"It's not that I'm looking at you weirdly today, it's just your own feelings. Have you never been to such a party before, and suddenly dressed up and said that it was extremely uncomfortable to look like this?
Relax, your outfit today is very good-looking and charming, didn't you see that Xue Dagongzi behind you, as well as that Mr. Yoshida, kept casting your eyes in favor. ”
Wu Qianqian secretly swept around with her afterglow, covered her mouth and smiled, and said in a low voice: "This feeling is really good, sometimes vanity is also a kind of enjoyment." ”
Ling Yun flipped through the list of auction items, and said as he flipped through it: "You continue to be vain, I'm going to get down to business." ”
Ling Yun flipped to a page with a photo of an object called "Heart of the Ocean" auction, and he stopped.
"It's a wooden carving, it's wonderful! What kind of master is this item from? Wu Qianqian pointed to the photos on the auction list and exclaimed.
Ling Yun waved his hand and said, "This carver is not a famous master. The auction object, called "Heart of the Ocean", was carved by an ordinary carver who had been paralyzed in bed for fifteen years, and spent seven years carving it bit by bit. ”
When Wu Qianqian heard this, she felt even more incredible, an ordinary carver, and he was paralyzed in bed, and it took seven years to complete a carving work, how much perseverance and how much effort it took to do it!
The work "Heart of the Ocean" created by this carver is carefully carved based on the story of the movie "Titanic".
In the work "Heart of the Ocean", the great style of the Titanic, an Olympic-class cruise ship, is realistically reproduced.
In April 1912, when this giant cruise ship sank after hitting an iceberg on its maiden voyage, its short and luxurious life left many mysterious legends to the whole world.
Built by the Harland and Wolf shipyards, the Titanic was the largest passenger ship of its time, and its design and construction were designed and built with a level of luxury and sophistication that was unprecedented.
The paralyzed engraver uses extreme detail to bring to life the ship's lavish indoor swimming pool, gymnasium, hammam, library, elevator and squash court.
What is even more amazing is that the carver has specially represented many details of the tanker's interior with great delicacy and delicacy under her carving knife.
At the beginning, when the Titanic was being built, it imitated the design style of the Palace of Versailles.
Therefore, the carver, with his great skill, also carved the lounge in the Louis XV style, the salon of the Petit Trianon in France, and even the carving "The Hunting Goddess of Versailles" on the fireplace.
In this carving, many of the reliefs, frescoes and minor decorations of the original hull are clearly displayed.
The whole work truly shows the incomparable luxury of the Titanic, the giant ship of the century, at that time.
With idealistic feelings, the carver interpreted this tragic tragedy into a beautiful love hymn in this carving.
In this carving of "Heart of the Ocean", the carver uses the technique of white drawing to truly present the good and ugly human nature, noble and despicable thoughts in the "Titanic" disaster.
At the same time, it uses extremely gorgeous and sensational techniques to render the unforgettable love story of Jack and Rose.
In the midst of this unselectable disaster, Jack gave his lover Rose the chance to survive and encouraged him to survive well, while he was frozen to death in the sea of ice.
In the work, Rose used her last strength to desperately call her lover's name, but she was never able to wake up Jack.
Jack, with his best wishes, slowly sank to the bottom of the sea, and Rose's heart disappeared into the icy waters with him.
In this engraving, the engraver adds his own personal feelings.
In the work, with the blue ocean as the background, the relief presents various life photos of Rose, a beautiful single photo......
In this blue ocean, there is also a crystal clear "heart of the ocean", and in the corner of this "heart of the ocean", a tear of the century is clearly hung.
Just from the photos on the auction list, you can see that this work is extremely realistic and expressive.
Since it is the work of an ordinary carver, the starting price is only set at 300,000 yuan.
If the final sale is made at tonight's charity auction, the auction's organizers will donate the proceeds to the Foundation for the Disabled in the name of the paralyzed carver and the bidder who auctioned the item.
Ling Yun stayed on the page with the photo of the "Heart of the Ocean" auction item for a while.
Then, comparing all the other auction items today, he can be sure that Ye Zhihai will definitely auction this "Heart of the Ocean" at all costs.
Because, Ling Yun learned from the materials related to Ye Zhihai collected some time ago that Ye Zhihai and his wife experienced a legendary love story when they were young.
For 30 years, they have always been true to each other and have never been separated.
However, this car accident left his wife paralyzed in bed, and Ye Zhihai was also sad for a long time.
It is said that Ye Zhihai also has a travel plan that is more beyond ordinary people's imagination -
After he successfully handed over the Ye Group to his daughter Ye Mengyao, he will choose to retire and take his wife to travel around the world on the world's most luxurious supertanker.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the auction officially began.
The first item auctioned at the Oriental Pearl Charity Auction was the Golden Horse Award trophy, which was donated to the winner of this year's Golden Horse Best Actor Award for this charity gala.
The starting price of this item is 1 million yuan, and at the beginning of the auction, there were several wealthy female guests who chased after the price of this item to 10 million yuan in the way of a 100-meter race.
In the end, after several rounds of competition, the item was auctioned by the daughter of a wealthy man in Linhai City at a price of 11 million yuan.
Next, the auction successively auctioned several calligraphy and paintings of contemporary celebrities, and evening dresses of big-name stars, and the final transaction prices were basically more than 5 million.
Such a result makes people have to sigh, here, money and fame and fortune are clearly doing chiluoluo exchanges.
After about six or seven items were auctioned, the hostess presented the "Heart of the Ocean" carved out of wood.
The auctioneer on the stage introduced the "Heart of the Ocean" work to a paralyzed patient with tenacious perseverance, who went through more than 2,000 days and nights and spent seven years to complete the work.
When the guests at the scene saw this extremely delicate and realistic work, and heard the background of this work and the life experience of the engraver, they let out a burst of amazement.
After introducing the work, the host said: "Ladies and gentlemen, after the sale of this auction item, it will be donated to the Foundation for the Disabled, and it will be set as a special fund for the paralyzed patients.
Let's generously donate a part of the funds to those in need, and contribute your love! The starting price of this 'Heart of the Ocean' is 300,000 yuan, and the price is 100,000 yuan, and the auction starts now! ”
After the host's introduction, there was a silence at the scene.
Ling Yun was smiling secretly, it seems that fame is a symbol of money, this paralyzed carver, carefully carved out such a classic "Heart of the Ocean" work, but none of the celebrities attending the party dresses are in demand!
It can be seen that the world's pursuit of fame and fortune is so real and ruthless on this occasion of the gathering of money and capital.
Ling Yun secretly looked at Ye Zhihai, and at this moment, he could clearly see a trace of sadness flashing in Ye Zhihai's eyes.
Ling Yun raised the sign without hesitation and said lightly: "One million." ”
Ling Yun's cry attracted the attention of the audience, and Wu Qianqian, who was beside him, also looked at him in surprise, and said softly: "Chairman, this is a work carved by a third-rate carver, you will shout out one million when you first apply the bid, and others will laugh at us." ”
A shallow smile rose at the corner of Ling Yun's mouth, ignoring Wu Qianqian's question, but looking at Ye Zhihai with his peripheral vision.
At this moment, he saw a rare smile on Ye Zhihai's face.
In this regal auction, even if someone bids for a very inconspicuous lot, there will always be a second or third bidder.
It's just that they don't want to shoot this work, but they also want to use it to attract the attention of others and show their strength.
"One million and one million." The second user speaks.
The eyes of the audience began to turn to the second bidder.
"One million and three million."
Ling Yun saw Ye Zhihai holding up the sign, and he was secretly happy in his heart.
Unhurriedly, he held up the sign and shouted again: "One and a half million." ”
