Chapter 328: Charity Auction
At the charity gala, Wang Batian was finally able to sit with Huang Ya.
"You and Mr. Li seem to have a good chat?"
Wang Batian knew what Huang Ya wanted to ask, and said with emotion while playing with her slender jade fingers: "Old Mr. Li is a very good teacher, although I don't know why he did this, but it doesn't matter anymore. ”
Huang Ya seemed to hear something, and she muttered: "I think you are very powerful!" At least you are the richest man in the country, but those who are praised are not. ”
Huang Ya's words made Wang Batian smile, this came from some evaluations of Wang Batian in a small media newspaper some time ago, the main meaning of which is that Wang Batian, who started in real estate and coal, does not know any management at all, and has no other vision and talent, and it is luck to get to this day.
Of course, this is not what the other party mainly wants to express, what he wants to express is the day when luck will always run out, that time is when Hengtian Group goes bankrupt and Wang Batian becomes a poor man, and it is absolutely impossible for him to get up again if everyone else falls, because he doesn't understand business at all.
Many people have seen this report that some people in Hengtian Group even want to go to Yanjing to arrest the person in charge of this media and let him understand what the three words Wang Batian mean.
Naturally, in the end, such an impulsive behavior was stopped by Wang Batian, if such a small character needs to be ignored, then he is not going to be busy to death?
He didn't care that other people were writing down this matter, and today's Huang Ya's words obviously meant that they were targeted, and Huang Ya's stingy face made Wang Batian really can't help pinching her little face.
On such an occasion, Wang Batian made such an intimate action, which obviously made Huang Ya feel very embarrassed, and glanced at Wang Batian with some complaints, and then looked around with a flushed face, and saw that no one noticed him, so he was relieved.
Wang Batian's actions are so big, it is naturally impossible for people not to see them, but the people here are all old foxes and human spirits, and they know how not to embarrass others, if Huang Ya is careful, she may find that these people have a smile on the corner of their mouths.
"Xiaoya, what is the secret of business success that you tell me?"
"The secret?"
Huang Ya blinked her big eyes and was a little strange, how could she know.
"So what do you think is the core of success?"
The core! Thinking about it with a frown like white jade, Huang Ya said, "Look and manage!" Vision, in particular, is important. ”
Shaking his head, Wang Batian said very seriously: "I told you before!" It's luck! ”
Luck? How is this possible, she is also from a management background, and many professors and successful people she has seen have never said this, although the content of various speeches is different, but the core is those categories! Persistence, vision, hard work......
As if guessing Huang Ya's thoughts, Wang Batian shook his head and smiled: "You don't really believe those speeches, do you?" A lot of small traders and vendors don't work hard enough? They work hard, but many times they just walk in the same place throughout their lives, changing as the market changes, and when the market is good, they make a little more, and when it is bad, they make a little less. ”
"You may say that they lack vision, if they have a vision, they can seize and expand their business in advance when the market is good, and hurriedly sell and convert the industry when the market is bad, but in fact, they don't think that this is vision, he is behind luck. If you are lucky, you have good vision, and if you are unlucky, you have no vision. ”
"Why do people keep talking about vision instead of luck? Because luck is untouchable, you can strengthen your sharpness, but can you strengthen your luck? The answer is no, so the speech can only say something false, and the real can't say anything at all. ”
Huang Ya was stunned for a moment, and then understood, let's not say whether what Wang Batian said was correct, but the truth is indeed like this, after all, the purpose of the speech is to inspire others, if you repeatedly mention luck, how can it still have this effect?
"The following auction is a painting from the Qing Dynasty, which is the collection of Mr. Dong, and the following will be selflessly provided for the charity auction of the Li Foundation, and all the proceeds will be used for free medical projects......"
The city is heavily influenced by European and American cultures, and the most common thing for the wealthy in Europe and the United States is charity, and the same is true for most of the wealthy in the city, compared to the mainland where such auctions are rarely held.
This painting is the third item, and the first and second pieces Wang Batian also made a slight move, but because the price was not high, it was quickly suppressed by other people's bids, and the front was reserved for ordinary rich people, and Wang Batian was not good at showing off here.
The painting is shown on the big screen, it is a picture of a lady, and the Qing Dynasty beauties on the picture should be a generation in Zhejiang Province, at least the style of the clothes is so.
"Brother Tian, it's the third one, you still don't make a move?"
Huang Ya didn't mean this, she knew that she was ridiculing herself by looking at her narrow smile, Wang Batian leaned close to her ear and said, "Where do I need this painting?" You're so much more beautiful than you painted. ”
Women who don't like praise, especially praise from people they like, although Huang Ya is a little embarrassed by Wang Batian's straightforwardness, but joy cannot be changed.
"Brother Tian, you have really changed a lot."
Huang Ya of the United States felt that the biggest change in Wang Batian was no longer to care so silently, but to learn to use language to make her happy, of course, she might not be able to use her, but they were more suitable.
Wang Batian smiled and didn't speak, with the improvement of his status, he naturally began to slowly return to his original character, of course, there may be some changes in the process, otherwise neither the original Tian Le's shyness nor Wang Batian's domineering are in line with his current character.
While the two were talking, the picture of the lady had been purchased by a bus tycoon in Hong Kong City, and the former Li Dagongzi also helped to introduce, it is said that he monopolized 60% of the bus and taxi business in the entire Hong Kong City, and although the wealth of the entire Hong Kong City is not in the top ten, the cash in his hands can definitely be ranked in the forefront.
In fact, Wang Batian has a closer relationship with him than others, because he is a member of a branch of Hongmen in Hong Kong City, that is, the bus group and the taxi company are all enterprises under Hongmen.
300,000 auctions bought this picture of a lady This can't help but glance at Wang Batian, and when he saw Wang Batian looking at him, an embarrassed smile appeared on his face.
It is estimated that this person has made a lot of money in the company, but some of them are tacit, not to mention that Wang Batian can't manage others, but the incense master of the branch hall is probably too lazy to pay attention to these things.
Stipulate how much to pay in a month, and you can watch the distribution for the rest, as long as it is not too excessive, then everything can be turned a blind eye. What should I do if I don't pay enough? Hongmen doesn't raise idlers.
The fourth piece is a piece of jade, a very beautiful mutton fat jade Buddha, Wang Batian likes it very much, seeing Huang Ya is very interested, Wang Batian raised the card in his hand very seriously for the first time. The mutton fat jade Buddha was taken out by the Li family, which is said to have a history of several hundred years, and it is a real old thing, not a pendant but the kind of mutton fat jade Buddha that is placed.
The reserve price is HK$500,000, and each increase cannot be less than HK$1,000.
"600,000, Hengtian Group Wang from the mainland bid 600,000 yuan!"
Because this is a public charity auction, there will be no competition, so there will be no grades, after all, most of the things here are not worth the auction price.
For example, this mutton fat jade Buddha may be worth three or four hundred thousand yuan in an antique store, but since it is an obligatory auction, the price is naturally higher.
"Mr. Wang, I'm sorry, I also like this piece of jade, don't mind if I increase the price!"
This one is really not polite, but really didn't raise a sign but asked first, and only said a price of 650,000 when he saw Wang Batian nodding and agreeing.
The price of 50,000 is not cheap and not deliberately targeted, it is a very ordinary price increase, it seems that the other party is really interested in the Jade Buddha itself.
"1.2 million, Mr. Wang's bid is 1.2 million, is there anything higher?"
The auctioneer was a little embarrassed at this time, if he could, he really didn't want to shout out Wang Batian's price, because it seemed that Wang Batian was too aggressive.
"I don't mean anything else, it's just that I like this piece of jade very much, and I'm too lazy to add it little by little, if Mr. Zhang also likes it very much, you can continue to increase the price."
Wang Batian's-for-tat meaning is very sufficient, the other party may really like this jade Buddha, but the moment he bid just now already means that he is not ready to give Wang Batian face, since how can Wang Batian be polite? Although Wang Batian doesn't have much cash in his hand, who knows?
Directly doubling the price scared the other party, and Wang Batian's-for-tat momentum really made the other party a little unable to step down, and he had the intention not to continue, but it is very important for people to live in the world, especially for businessmen.
"1.5 million!"
The other party really chose to continue to increase the price, but when Wang Batian raised the card, the boss of the bus company raised the card again, and the price was very eye-catching.
"5 million, this is a meeting gift from me to Mr. Wang, I will double the bid if I continue to increase the price, auctioneer, please continue."
What is the situation, there has never been a current situation since the Li family hosted the charity auction, especially the general manager of the bus company, although everyone knows that he is just a puppet, but who does not know what he represents behind him? It was at this time that the rich remembered Wang Batian's other identity.
Just when the auction site was a little deserted, Wang Batian suddenly raised his card, which was 6 million!
"Thank you for your kindness, but I, Wang Batian, never owe favors to others."
What he said was really embarrassing, but the other party obviously didn't have much embarrassment, he smiled and stopped talking, he was just a puppet, and the difference between him and Wang Batian's identity was too big, which made him have no resentment in his heart at all, but felt that he should take it for granted.
