Chapter 16: The World Is Small
decided to invest in Ning Hao's movie, Du Jiayi really felt that the trip was in vain. Not to mention the huge sense of accomplishment in my heart, a great director who is high up in another world now needs to come over and invest in himself, that feeling is really-so cool.
Du Jiayi really understands why I always see the reason why I always see the entertainment industry when I read novels before, and for time-travelers, what is more rewarding than conquering the original public figures?
Xiang Yu said in this book that wealth does not return to his hometown, such as a night walk in brocade. It's just the basic humanity of being a traverser and a little bit of bad taste. However, Du Jiayi doesn't have to think about who the unspoken rules are, my mother warned in advance, and she didn't dare to commit it easily!
Sitting next to her parents, Du Jiayi behaved like a well-behaved baby. The current editor-in-chief of Bazaar took the stage to deliver a speech, first thanking the magic capital and the fashion circle for the arrival of the entertainment circle, and then elaborated on the theme of this year's charity: make charity fashionable, advocate making charity a habit.
Du Jiayi was very bored and flipped through the auction manual, which was lined up according to the order of the auction. The first is a limited edition hero fountain pen, with a reserve price of 500,000.
A fountain pen of 500,000 yuan is not inlaid with gold and diamonds, 500,000 yuan is really too much. Du Jiayi glanced at the donor again: that sister. That sister has not participated in The Voice of China yet, nor is she a champion mentor, but she has always been the first sister in the domestic music scene, and she is also the initiator of the charity night. With so many titles, 500,000 pens to start shooting, it's completely appropriate.
Charity auctions, as the name suggests, are not for profit, and donations are made through charitable organizations. At the beginning, that sister's proposal came from the fact that the entertainment industry did nothing in the face of the catastrophe, which led to the birth of Charity Night.
"Eight hundred thousand three times!"
"Deal! The limited edition Hero Pen was auctioned by Miss Xu Ruoxuan!" The auctioneer has the final word.
Du Jiayi was speechless, top stars are really rich, and they spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a fountain pen. After thinking about it, the big and small stars who appear on the stage can't say nothing, the more first, the value will be relatively low, and it is easier to accept.
The next few monumental lots, including the Tiffany Tesoro timepiece, architectural model, watch and butterfly brooch, were sold for nearly one million. Some celebrities familiar to Du Jiayi, such as Huang Xiaoming, Zhang Ziyi, Dong Dawei, and Yi Nengjing, have raised their cards to bid for many times. Of course, there are more entrepreneurs of all kinds, who are simply the main culprits of price gouging. A Chinese painting of Chen Long was actually bought by a local entrepreneur in the magic capital, who claimed to be his fan, at a high price of 5 million.
"Dad, we're just looking at it?"
After the auctioneer's continuous mobilization of the atmosphere, Du Jiayi felt that he couldn't help the burning silence in his body, and he wanted to raise his cards to participate in the auction.
Du Siyuan glanced at his son meaningfully: "Don't you see that the people around you don't raise their cards much?" ”
"Be patient, don't worry, the real auction has just begun!"
Yang Guangya was really dissatisfied with her husband's unfathomable nature, probably because of the anger left by not accompanying her to try the cheongsam last time: "Why are you talking so much!" The first lot is basically reserved for the stars themselves, and the latter ones are our key targets. ”
"For these celebrities, selling their own things at a high price is not only conducive to their own publicity, but also to get in touch with big companies. And for our company, it is also dealing with another circle, and at the same time, it is also promoting the brand by doing charity! ”
Du Siyuan just smiled at his wife's little temper, and handed the sign in his hand to Du Jiayi: "Look at what you like, auction it out at the highest price!" ”
"The highest price?" Du Jiayi took the sign and asked.
"There is no cap!" Du Siyuan said calmly.
Du Jiayi was dumbfounded, now the amount of the auction is gradually increasing, who knows what the so-called bid king is! There is no cap, isn't this a clear injustice, and charity is not like this.
Seeing the doubts of his son and wife, Du Siyuan said in a low voice: "Before you asked me why Qianfan Group was not listed, in fact, I was just waiting for an opportunity. Now that the real estate industry is gradually picking up, the government and banks are encouraging the development of the real estate industry, which is the external driving factor. ”
For Qianfan, after more than ten years, it is time to change. This charity night made Qianfan famous, and it should be regarded as a large amount of advertising money! ”
I have to say that Du Siyuan's idea is equivalent to taking this charity night as a sign of the group's application for listing, and the higher the final auction amount, the more famous Qianfan Group will be. What investors are looking after is nothing more than the big Mac that is advertised, and this celebrity charity night is destined to grab a lot of media headlines, so why not take a free ride!
"The next auction item, a handmade customized multi-color evening dress donated by Miss Liu Wenqi, has a starting price of 1 million, and each price increase shall not be less than 50,000!"
Liu Wenqi, who is known as the sister of the contemporary national name, is very immature, Du Jiayi noticed that on such a major occasion, Liu Wenqi in the front row looked very restrained. Now Liu Wenqi has starred in "The Family" and "Martial Arts World", which is really popular. When Du Jiayi watched TV, he also learned that Liu Wenqi was very likely to take over the current four major flowers. The reason why she can mix like a fish in water in the entertainment industry is naturally because of the influence of his godfather, and her illustrious family background makes her less unnecessary trouble.
"Five million!"
Suddenly, someone held up a sign and said. The direct increase from one million to five million seems to be an attempt to discourage competitors from participating through an extremely large price increase.
Hearing that someone had raised the price, Du Jiayi suddenly had a smile on his face, and this voice was very familiar.
"Five million! Modu Daily Chemical Group increased the price to five million! And there is no markup! ”
The one who shouted five million was Lu Chengfeng, who had only seen him before, the guy who wanted to race with Du Jiayi. This world is really small, I didn't expect him to attend this charity auction on behalf of Modu Daily Chemical Group.
Liu Wenqi in the front row obviously didn't expect that the dress she donated could be called to five million, and under the reminder of her mother next to her, Liu Wenqi greeted Lu Chengfeng amicably across the crowd.
And what surprised Liu Wenqi was still to come.
"Five million for the first time!"
"Five million for the second time!"
"Is there a higher price?"
"Ten million!" Du Jiayi suddenly raised his card and said!
There was silence for a moment, followed by the sound of chaotic discussions.
