Chapter 800: Charity Auction

The severity of the reality made Xu Mengyun understand that charity cannot be completely done in one go, just in one place in the sky, there are so many poor orphans, the whole of China can be imagined, charity is a heavy and long way to go, just relying on the three billion donations, can not solve the problems of all the people in need.

What's more, what they do is not just to help, but most importantly to help them gain the ability to earn a living.

Just ten days after the establishment of the Longlin Charity Foundation, Xu Mengyun held a press conference in a huge conference room in the headquarters building of the Longlin Foundation.

The main content of the press conference is to announce to all sectors of society the charitable activities and plans to be carried out by the Longlin Foundation, and to describe the number of donations used in each activity and what it will be used for.

In the early stage, the Longlin Foundation will build three to five orphan schools in Tianhai for orphans, and it is expected that each school can accommodate 3,000 orphans.

During the press conference, Xu Mengyun posted photos of the orphanages visited by her, Ye Yuqing and Fang You through a projector, and announced that some of them used orphans as tools for profit, the simple living environment, and the lifeless appearance on the faces of the children, which couldn't help but cause a sigh at the scene, and condemned the person in charge of these orphanages......

Xu Mengyun went on to explain that the Longlin Foundation had contacted the local public security and government departments and banned these orphanages, and all the orphans in the orphanages were temporarily placed in various orphanages in Tianhai City, and when the Longlin Charity School was established, these orphans would be sent to the school.

Some reporters and people who participated in the press conference expressed great recognition of the preliminary work of the Longlin Foundation, saying that it is unrealistic to expect that all problems will be completely solved at once with so many people suffering.

The time gradually came to the month after the establishment of the Longlin Foundation, and in this month, Longyou Auction House received a total of thousands of charity auction items from all sides, including some fine antiques, calligraphy and paintings of well-known figures from all walks of life and some items they have used.

During this period, the charity project of Longlin Charity School was approved by the Tianhai Municipal Government, and the construction of several purchased land in Tianhai was officially started, and it is expected to be completed within three to five months.

With the development of various charitable programs of Longlin Foundation, coupled with the previous influence, it has become a thriving charity star in China.

In particular, Xu Mengyun and Fang You, as the top leaders of the Charity Foundation, actually went down to visit various orphanages to learn about the situation of the orphans, which is enough to show that the Longlin Foundation attaches great importance and seriousness to charity work.

Xiao Liuzi and Dashan are each responsible for the follow-up of a project in the foundation, ensuring the progress of the project and the control of funds.

Being able to help those orphans so openly, Xiao Liuzi and Dashan feel very happy and full of a sense of accomplishment.

In the midst of great anticipation and attention, the Longyou Charity Auction was officially opened, and its auction location was in the No. 1 auction hall of Longyou Auction House.

There are three auction halls in this auction venue, each of which can accommodate nearly 1,000 people.

Since the announcement at the opening ceremony that Longyou Auction House will hold a charity auction in a month's time, the number of people who have come to book tickets for the charity auction has been numerous during this month.

It's a rare opportunity to contribute to charity and photograph celebrities.

The items taken out by Chu Lao and several other old men made everyone look forward to it very much, and the ordinary auction held by Longyou Auction House could not be missed, let alone this grand charity auction.

Before the auction began, there were people standing in front of the Longyou auction venue, some of whom couldn't bear the excitement of patience, and some of them came early, and some wanted to see what kind of heavyweights would appear in this auction.

After a while, they really waited for the person they wanted to meet, Xu Mengyun, the vice president of the Longlin Foundation, and several directors came together, among these directors, almost all of them were well-known figures, Fang You and Dong Qilin, the two people who founded the Longyou Auction House together, also came together.

Longyou Auction House was established in just a few years, and has achieved brilliant results that others can hardly believe, and now most people still remember that when Longyou Auction House was just established, that auction that made people regret not coming, there were rumors that Fang You's sworn enemy, the patriarch of the Li family, because he disdained the high-profile publicity of Longyou Auction House, thinking that even if he didn't go, they would never regret it, so they didn't even send a person to participate.

In the end, I heard that there was a thousand-year-old ginseng at the auction, and the patriarch of the Li clan, who had been seriously ill, was directly fainted, which shows the powerful ability of Longyou Auction House.

has squeezed from an obscure auction house when it was first established to the first place in the top ten auction houses in China.

For Fang You, who has single-handedly created countless amazing industries, everyone is very puzzled, how such a young man has created so many miracles.

Compared with the grand opening ceremony of the Longlin Foundation last time, the Longyou Charity Auction is much more low-key, but everyone is full of expectations for this auction and is eager for this auction to create a miracle again.

Xu Mengyun and Dong Qilin, on behalf of the Longlin Foundation and Longyou Auction House respectively, took the stage to speak, the words were simple and clear, all the auction proceeds will be transferred to the Longlin Foundation, used for charity, the auction house will not take any handling fees.

Next, the auctioneer appeared, "Hehe, everyone must know me, I'm honored to be able to host this charity auction...... ”

Everyone couldn't help but smile when they saw this familiar ace auctioneer of Longyou Auction House, and in the witty words of this auctioneer, they spent one auction after another, making the originally extremely boring auction colorful.

The dozens of lots in front are all handicrafts donated by ordinary people, and each of them has a transaction price of less than 1,000 yuan.

Although this made people who were extremely looking forward to it a little disappointed, everyone was in awe of Longyou Auction House's behavior, and everyone knew that Longyou Auction House had been doing boutique auctions, and every item it auctioned belonged to antique masterpieces, and for ordinary items, there was no auction at all.

And now, Longyou Auction Co., Ltd. cooperates with the Longlin Foundation to do charity, and does not hesitate to smash the signboard of its own boutique auction house to auction these handicrafts donated by ordinary people.

Everyone has the right to give their love, and Longyou Auction House did not refuse a love, only for charity, and no longer cared about their own boutique commitments, which made everyone's hearts full of respect.

"The next auction is a Tang costume worn by a kung fu superstar in the movie, with his autograph on it, this kung fu superstar can be described as a household name, he is Long Cheng, he single-handedly established the Long Cheng Foundation, and has made an indelible contribution to charity, the reserve price of this Tang costume is 50,000 yuan, increase the price at will, and the auction will start now." The auctioneer introduced a Tang costume on the stage, and on the big screen behind it, a picture of Long Cheng wearing this Tang costume in the movie was attached.

Among the people who participated in the auction below, there are also people who grew up watching Long Cheng's movies, and it can be said that he is a loyal fan, not only Long Cheng's movies are popular with everyone, but also because of his character, he is also worthy of everyone's respect, and is called Long Cheng's big brother in the industry, with huge influence.

At this time, when they heard that Long Cheng's Tang costume was going to be auctioned, some of the people below were already gearing up and ready to bid.

"Eighty thousand." A younger, lighter man held up a sign.

"This gentleman bid 80,000 yuan, this Tang costume is made of fine brocade, coupled with the huge influence of Long Cheng, its collection value is very high, to be able to collect this Tang costume, but also to contribute to charity, it can be described as a double thing."

"One hundred thousand...... Two hundred thousand, this gentleman bid two hundred thousand, oh, three hundred thousand......"

Long Cheng's Tang costume set off the first ** of the auction, and everyone bid fiercely, just as the auctioneer said, it is a very wonderful thing to be able to auction clothes and contribute to charity.

"600,000, 700,000...... This gentleman bid 800,000 yuan, and did any friend bid higher, 800,000 for the first time...... The sale, this Tang costume worn by Long Cheng in the movie, was auctioned by this gentleman for 800,000 yuan, and the money will go to the Longlin Foundation, which will be used entirely for charity, and will be added to our annual charity list, thank you again. ”

As the auction progressed, all kinds of things also flocked to it, crafts, jewelry, and things used by various bigwigs, which can be described as a hodgepodge auction only for charity, and many of the items caused crazy bidding by the people on the scene.

"The following auction will be a Diamond Sutra donated by the President of the Buddhist Association, Master Huijie, this Buddhist scripture has followed Master Huijie for many years, often held in his hand to study, in order to further support the Longlin Foundation to do charity, Master Huijie took out this Buddhist scripture, I hope that some caring people, some people who believe in Buddhism, can get this book, to charity, to offer a love." The auctioneer pointed to a simple Buddhist scripture on the table and said with excitement on his face.

Master Huijie often study the Diamond Sutra, which can be said to be of great significance to people who believe in Buddhism, Master Huijie is a person with a high status in Buddhism in China and even the world, and its study of Buddhism has reached the peak level, this Diamond Sutra has been studied by Master Huijie for a long time, it can be said that every day in the light of Master Huijie, there is already a bit of Buddhism.

The ornaments that have been opened by the enlightened monks can get rid of yin and evil, and have the effect of protecting the body, and the master of Huijie as the president of the Buddhist Association, his identity is more respected than the average monk, the level of Buddhism, is not the average Buddhist disciple can compare, his Diamond Sutra, not only the collection value, put at home, invisibly, will definitely drive away the dirty things that exist in the home.

Even if it really doesn't exist, there is this Diamond Sutra at home, and when you return home, you don't have to worry about anything, and you can sleep peacefully.

"This Diamond Sutra Master Huijie specially instructed that the auction without a reserve price will be held, no matter what the final transaction price is, it represents a person's love and represents the good thoughts that exist in a person's heart, so I announce that this Diamond Sutra carried by Master Huijie and studied from time to time will be auctioned at no reserve price, starting now." The auctioneer waved his hand excitedly.

The auctioneer's words couldn't help but make everyone on the scene respect Master Huijie, not pursuing the amount of money, but only everyone's idea of charity.

"One hundred thousand ......" A middle-aged man stood up and folded his hands together to show his respect for Master Huijie.

"Two hundred thousand, Master Huijie is really a Buddhist master, a high-ranking monk, this Diamond Sutra is extremely precious," the other stood up without hesitation and shouted loudly.

"This gentleman bid 300,000 ...... 500,000, Mr. 18 bid again, 800,000 ......"

If Long Cheng's Tang costume is difficult to give up, then this Diamond Sutra studied by Master Huijie is enough to make people bid fiercely.

Even holding his own jade ornaments and asking some enlightened monks to consecrate them could not do it, from which it is enough to imagine how precious this Diamond Sutra that the master of the wisdom ring often studied.

For those dirty things that may exist, the Dharma is undoubtedly their biggest nemesis, and the effect of this Diamond Sutra will be even more powerful, and if you put it in your home, it will be enough to keep people safe and sound, free from evil spirits, and maybe even nightmares will not be had.

The price has risen rapidly from the beginning, and this Diamond Sutra can be auctioned at the same time, and at the same time can contribute to charity, why not, for the sake of charity and photograph this Sutra, I am afraid that it will definitely make the effect of this Diamond Sutra greatly enhanced, for justice and charity.

"One million, one million two hundred thousand...... Two million, this gentleman bid two million, everyone, what I want to say is that this Buddhist sutra Huijie Master has already said that it represents a person's love and good thoughts, and he also specially instructed to do what you can, not to do unnecessary competition, otherwise, it is to fight for wealth, not to do charity. ”

The auctioneer's words, although everyone heard, but no one flinched, more people have a deeper understanding of Longyou Auction House, if other auction houses hold this charity auction, I am afraid that the more people who bid the better, the higher the price, the better, now Longyou Auction House is in the fierce competition, pouring cold water on everyone's heads, so that everyone can do what they can, this kind of thing, other auction houses, absolutely unable to do.

In the end, this Diamond Sutra, with three million, was obtained by a person who believes in Buddhism, he has believed in Buddhism for many years, after paying directly on the spot, seeing this Sutra come to his face, he actually had some tears in his eyes, when he took the Sutra, he put his hands together, bowed to the Sutra, and then took it with both hands.

This kind of scene makes everyone feel a little relieved, this Diamond Sutra has reached the hands of this person, and it can be said that it has found a home.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the following lot is not a real thing, it is a special thing, maybe this thing is not the first time it has been auctioned, but this person's thing is the first time it has been auctioned." The auctioneer did not bring any of the items, and from his words everyone could tell that it was not a real thing, and if it was not a real thing, what would it be.

Some of the people who often participate in various auctions seem to have thought of something, and their faces are extremely expectant.

"The following auction will be an opportunity to have dinner with the richest man in China, as for who the richest man in China is, I don't need to remind you, of course, because Li Lao's body can not travel long distances, so, if the person who wins this opportunity will rush to Hong Kong to have dinner with Li Lao, and the cost of going back and forth will be fully responsible for Li Lao, and at the same time, Li Lao also reminds you that eating a dinner cannot make people from poor eggs to rich people, so people who are eager to fall from the sky are really not suitable for this opportunity, Please be cautious. ”

The opportunity to have dinner with Li Lao, which made everyone can't help but show surprise and excitement, Li Lao's life can be described as a legend that cannot be replicated, from nothing, to the current richest man in China, his success is definitely not luck, but relying on his own little bit of struggle.

The auction scene is full of young people, bosses of major companies, and being able to have the opportunity to listen to Mr. Li's teachings can be said to be a thing that makes everyone a little crazy.

As for going to Hong Kong, as for the reimbursement of all the round-trip expenses, this point was directly ignored by them, and they could let Li Lao give advice, let alone go to Hong Kong, even if they went to poor and chaotic Africa, what about it, the little difficulty on the road was simply a gap between heaven and earth with Li Lao's guidance.

The auctioneer had a smile on his face, "Everyone, through Mr. Li's decision, this opportunity to have dinner with his old man is also an auction with no reserve price, this opportunity only needs to be given to the right person, people who are confused about the goal and the road ahead, so, before the auction, please ask yourself, whether you need this opportunity, a chance, maybe it can change your life, but it will never be in a short period of time, let people change from poor to rich, the opportunity to have dinner with Li Lao, no reserve auction, start now." ”
