Chapter 1790: The Auction Begins

Chapter 1790 Auction Begins (Second Update)

This matter seems to be over like this, but Zhang Lan always feels that things are not so simple, this old chief Zhang Lan, who has the grace to promote Li Yumei, knows, according to reason, this high-ranking old chief does not seem to have any reason to help the Japanese speak, which is very puzzling.

Since it is puzzling, it means that there are some things behind this that people don't know.

Zhang Lan knew a little about the glorious deeds of this old chief before the liberation, and even more knew that this old chief was very unaccustomed to the Japanese.

"Check what the hell is going on, I always feel that this matter is not so simple, how can these little Japanese people be able to send such an old ** who has no good impression of them to help them speak so disregarding?" After some consideration, Zhang Lan instructed Jill.

"Okay." Regarding Zhang Lan's instructions, the little girl has never said anything.

The investigation of this matter is very important, but for Zhang Lan, while investigating this matter, another very important thing is about to begin: the auction of Alice's personal belongings has officially begun.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

This auction is not so much an auction as it is a private gathering of the world's super-rich.

Artists from the Vienna Art Troupe played melodious music at the banquet, cheerful tunes flowed in every corner of the hall, rich ladies in various gorgeous dresses were gathering and chatting, and these bored women were showing off their ornaments to each other like peacocks with hair, so as to show off their wealth;

Men in stereotypical suits show their wealth in another form: private luxury cruise ships, private luxury castles, private luxury planes...... For these guys who don't know how to spend their money, the villas, famous watches, and costumes made by the world's outstanding costume masters are simply shabby to death for the ordinary rich, and you wear a watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, embarrassed to show off in front of the Russian super-rich who owns a billion dollar private jet? Even if he was just wearing an electronic watch for less than $200......

To paraphrase a very evil saying, this is a meeting of unity, a meeting of harmony, and a ...... Belch......

After a commotion, the crowd suddenly became lively.

The men and women, who were flaunting their wealth in various obvious and subtle ways, looked at the figure that was slowly approaching, and stood up and applauded enthusiastically: any action is humble in the face of wealth far more than what they possess.

The music sounded just right, from the most famous talk show host in the United States, Oprah. Winfrey exclaimed in an ebullient tone, "Ladies and gentlemen, let us warmly welcome our mysterious goddess, Miss Alice, the legendary angel of the world of business."

"You're very popular." Walking next to Alice, Zhang Lan, who did not squint, whispered to Alice.

"I think they're more interested in my money." Alice responded in the same tone.

"That's right," Zhang Lan agreed.

"God, why isn't that woman me?"

Finally, someone exclaimed in a low voice, there is no doubt that the owner of this voice is a woman, and this woman's voice also poured out the hearts of all the women at the scene.

Looking at the legendary beauty in front of her, who has unimaginable wealth in this world at a young age, the eyes of every man and woman are full of naked envy and jealousy, especially those women, who are eager to directly replace Alice: why is this woman who is loved by thousands of people and is recognized as God's favorite little princess not herself?

But as unhappy as they are, they can't change the reality: in front of Alice, who has absolute wealth, their jealousy and envy can't have the same effect on Alice as a hair.

However, those rich people quickly cleaned up their moods, and they worked hard to get their own piece of the sky, in fact, they understand better that at this time, instead of being annoyed and complaining, it is better to think about how to follow this opportunity to establish ......a cooperative relationship with Alice Group.

Don't you see, because of Alice's support, Ford has become the first of the three major automobile manufacturers in the United States, and there is a faint trend to become the world's first automobile manufacturer? Looking at the Robinson Helicopter Company, which was originally only able to produce ultralight helicopters, with the support of the Alice Group, the current scale of the enterprise is not rapidly expanding? Look at that damn madman Ellison, after buying a boat from the Alice Group, in just one year, he has made a net profit of hundreds of millions of dollars The most conspicuous thing is that looking at this Chinese, he was originally just a most ordinary farmer, and I don't know what Alice fell in love with them, and they were able to get Alice's favor so much, so that the family surnamed Zhang now has a net worth that is even bigger than the vast majority of people present......

These examples that happened around us clearly prove that if you want to make money and make a fortune, following closely behind Alice is a shortcut to the south.

Looking at those eyes that were either looking at Alice or looking at herself, Zhang Lan felt very helpless.

"You know it's not going to be easy, right?" Perhaps because she felt that Zhang Lan's results were not enough, Alice suddenly chuckled and whispered in Zhang Lan's ear.

Of course, others naturally don't know what Alice and Zhang Lan are talking about, they only know that Alice, the real proud daughter of the sky, suddenly laughed softly in Zhang Lan's ear like a flower that suddenly bloomed.

Many people's eyes widened in an instant, and everyone was extremely curious in their hearts

They were eager to know what Alice was talking to Zhang Lan's lucky boy with a smile just now, and some of them were more dark in their hearts, and they had already begun to ponder, if they found a way to steal the little princess's heart, wouldn't that mean that her family property of at least tens of millions of dollars was her own?

"You framed me, you didn't look at the eyes of those guys when they looked at me, they all looked like hungry wolves." Zhang Lan's face was sad and indignant.

"Of course, I did it on purpose." Alice was triumphant, and a beautiful one threw her eyes over, and instantly stunned a large group of people around her.

Zhang Lan's face became more and more sad.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

After all, a banquet is just a banquet, and today's auction is the main topic.

The auctioneer is the chief auctioneer of Christie's, one of the world's two largest auction houses, a man in his 60s with more than 30 years of auction experience, known for his ability to auction off his goods at an astonishing price and create unimaginable wealth for his sellers.

In fact, it is a bit of a waste to invite this old man to come, these people who came today are all here for Alice's face, and they have already opened their money bags one by one, as for the level of the auctioneer, it is actually not a problem...... To put it mildly, even if it was a pig standing on the table, Alice's auction items could be sold for a sky-high price.

The reason why Christie's was chosen was because Zhang Lan had no good impression of Sotheby's, in fact, he didn't have a good impression of Christie's, but relatively speaking, for Sotheby's, which felt even worse for Zhang Lan, Christie's was a so-so choice. However, Christie's shareholders were immediately keenly aware that being able to preside over such an auction was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Christie's to overwhelm Sotheby's

"Ladies and gentlemen, the next item to be auctioned is a necklace designed by Miss Alice herself," after auctioning off a few items of little value, which are only relatively worthless, in fact, these items were sold for more than $5 million, and it is amazing that a small appetizer can be sold for such a high price, and Christie's chief auctioneer explains the extraordinary features of this item with his beautiful baritone, "What I need to explain to you is that The necklace is made up of 36 natural powder-blue diamonds, each weighing 2.5 carats, and at the heart of the necklace is this rare 15-carat pink diamond. ”

With the auctioneer's words, the image of this necklace was played on the big screen behind him in real time.

There was a low exclamation below, especially the unique shape, which attracted the ladies who had nothing to do all day long to study all kinds of luxury items.

The people present are all knowledgeable people, and naturally understand that just these 37 diamonds are already worth a lot of money, and what is even more rare is that the thirty-six powder blue diamonds are all of average size, and the color is also of average depth, and it is already extremely difficult to get together these 36 powder blue diamonds, let alone the 15-carat pink diamond.

The people present were all knowledgeable people, and it was clear at a glance that just for this point, the value of this necklace would not be less than 30 million US dollars.

If you take into account the designer and unique and luxurious shape of this diamond necklace, everyone secretly put a price on this ship of diamonds in their hearts: conservative estimates, the value of this ship of diamond necklaces will not be less than 60 million US dollars, since it is at auction, then the final price may even exceed 8000 US dollars.
