Chapter 35 Assignment
"Oh, I also came to see the auction with them, I heard that it was very lively, come and see it." Lin Fan smiled faintly, his gaze at Guo Yu'er seemed to be relatively flat, but there was still a trace of hidden burning. "Mr. Lin, you guys are here. Mr. Zheng arranged for you to be in Box No. 1, which is your box key. Just as everyone walked into the hall together, Guo Jiahe just took out the invitation, but the waiter next to him ignored him and walked straight to Lin Fan, saying respectfully with a thick smile on his face.
"Miss, you're mistaken, he didn't come with me." At this time, one of Guo Jiahe seemed to be a little angry, thinking that the service lady regarded Lin Fan as having come with her.
"You are Mr. Guo, your box is on the fifteenth, this is your key. And of course Mr. Lin didn't come with you, he was a friend of our Mr. Zheng and a guest of honor at this auction. Another service lady came over to take Guo Jiahe's invitation, looked at the contents and handed him a key with a smile.
"Uncle Guo, classmate Guo, let's go over first, let's talk later." Lin Fan took the key, nodded to the service lady, and then greeted the Guo family and the father and daughter, and took Wang Biao and Zhou Xiaolin away.
"Miss, you called him Mr. Lin before, right? I don't know which company he is the CEO? Guo Jiahe and Guo Yuer were stunned, and it wasn't until Lin Fan's back disappeared that Guo Yuer stepped forward to ask the service lady.
"Mr. Lin is the CEO of a fishing company, and he has close business dealings with our Zheng family, and he is very familiar with our Zheng Zong, as for the rest, we don't know very well. However, the slightly shorter boy who was with Mr. Lin just now was the son of Mr. Zhou, who was auctioning bluefin tuna this time. The service lady didn't know much, but what she said had already shocked Guo Yuer.
"What? He's the CEO of a fishing company, so there's no mistake about it. I clearly remember that his hometown was in Shannan Province, an old revolutionary base area, and the conditions were very difficult. How could he be the CEO of a fishing company? I haven't seen him for a holiday, when did he become the CEO of a fishing company. Guo Yuer couldn't believe it, and muttered to herself next to her.
"Yu'er, are you telling the truth? Then this is strange, you also heard, his box is on the number one, which can be said to be the most precious box in this auction, and it stands to reason that there can be no mistake. By the way, Yu'er, you are so interested in this Lin Fan, could it be that your relationship at school is not ordinary? Guo Jiahe deserved to be Lao Jiang, and quickly sensed Guo Yuer's abnormality.
"He confessed to me before the last holiday, but I rejected him. We haven't had any contact since then, so I don't know what happened to him. Guo Yuer hesitated, but still told her father about it.
"Child, in a family like ours, personal marriage is not controlled by yourself, so I can only wronged you. But you also know that Xiaotong like the Zeng family is not engaged to a person he doesn't like, even if his marriage is unhappy in the future, he has to bear it silently. But speaking of which, this Lin Fan is also a little extraordinary, and he can still talk eloquently in front of me, but because you rejected him, but made him mature. Guo Jiahe patted his daughter's back and said helplessly.
"Dad, don't talk about him, he has nothing to do with me." Guo Yuer smiled, but there was deep unwillingness hidden in her smile.
The auction began quickly, and the person in charge of the auction was the chief auctioneer of Wang's jewelry, a middle-aged man with meticulously combed hair, who looked very formal in a shirt and bow tie.
"Friends, welcome to today's auction. As you already know, today's auction is special because there is only one item to be auctioned, and that is a rare bluefin tuna.
Bluefin tuna is a very precious species of tuna, and there are no more than 1,000 catties of bluefin tuna every year worldwide, so its price is very expensive.
Arguably, anywhere in the world, if your restaurant ever sold bluefin tuna meat, it was an incalculable accolade, a pride that would be the envy of other restaurateurs.
On July 13 last year, five college girls picked up a bluefin tuna weighing about 272 catties on the coast of Cornwall, England, and later its market value reached nearly 7 million Chinese dollars.
The bluefin tuna we are going to auction today was caught by a sea fishing enthusiast himself, it is 326 centimeters long, weighs 347 catties, and the net weight is 308 catties after cutting it without internal organs.
Our estimated price of this bluefin tuna is about 9.6 million, and after negotiation with the seller, and in order to ensure that the bosses do not run in vain, we decided to divide this bluefin tuna into ten equal auctions.
Next, we will start to auction bluefin tuna meat, it has a total of 10 servings, each weighing 30 catties, the starting price is 800,000 yuan, and the price increase is not less than 10,000 yuan each time.
Bluefin tuna, which can raise the profile of your restaurant and can bring you an intangible reputation, is such a priceless item, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, why not seize it?
Now, who wants this first bluefin tuna meat? Hurry up and hold up your number plate and shout. ”
I have to praise this auctioneer, he is experienced, in view of the particularity of the items in this auction, he is like a river, his tongue is like a lotus, and he speaks wildly, so that everyone listens to it and their blood is boiling, even Lin Fan feels that if he is the owner of the restaurant, no matter how much money he spends, he has to auction a copy to make it reasonable.
"Eight hundred and twenty thousand."
"Eight hundred and fifty thousand."
"Eight hundred and eighty thousand."
"Nine hundred and fifty thousand."
Soon, the first bluefin tuna meat exceeded 1 million, and was finally auctioned by Zheng Yuming, the boss of the Zheng family, for 1.06 million. After all, he is the boss of this Zheng's seafood restaurant, and now it is auctioned on his territory, and everyone has to sell him a face.
The next five or six bluefin tuna were basically sold at about 1.1 million, and these bosses wanted to shoot the bluefin tuna very much, but they were still measured, able to stay calm, and would not raise the price for no reason.
But when it came to the last three copies, everyone's emotions were a little more excited, and the price was directly raised to about 1.3 million per piece, which also made the atmosphere of the auction site reach *.
And when Lin Fan saw that Guo Jiahe didn't get a single one, when the last one was 1.4 million, he directly shouted 2 million, which made everyone stunned, and they all looked at Box 1 and guessed who the person who shouted the price was.
Of course, Zhou Deyi, Zheng Yuming and others knew that it was Lin Fan, although they didn't understand his thoughts, but no one said anything when he bought his own fish, so the last one was bought by Lin Fan himself.
"Uncle Zhou, let's give this one to Guo's at the average price of today's results." Lin Fan sent a text message to Zhou Deyi when he left.
"I didn't expect the competition to be so fierce today, and the last one reached two million." Walking out of Zheng's restaurant, Guo Jiahe glanced back with some regret, shook his head and said to Guo Yuer.
"Dad, it's nothing, isn't it just a piece of fish, our five-star hotel is not completely supported by catering." Guo Yuer hurriedly comforted.
"Mr. Guo, please stay." At this time, a voice came from behind, but it was Zhou Deyi who came over to greet them.
"It turned out to be Mr. Zhou, and the best seafood we need in the future will depend on Mr. Zhou's support." Of course, Guo Jiahe knew Zhou Deyi, and he was able to participate in this auction because Zhou Deyi agreed to get the invitation.
Moreover, Guo Jiahe knows that Zhou Deyi now has a lot of excellent seafood in his hands, although he doesn't know how he came here, but he can't help but have a good relationship, after all, his hotel is five-star, and although the catering is not the focus, it needs some high-quality products.
"Congratulations to Mr. Guo." Zhou Deyi smiled and said.
"I don't know where the joy that Mr. Zhou said came from?" Guo Jiahe asked puzzled.
"That's what happened. There is a bluefin tuna meat, and the person who photographed him is willing to transfer it to Mr. Guo, as long as Mr. Guo pays the average price this time, I don't know if Mr. Guo is willing to ask for it? Zhou Deyi didn't say much, and said the matter directly.
"What? And such things, of course we want, of course we need. However, can Mr. Zhou reveal which friend took care of our Guo family this time? Guo Jiahe nodded hurriedly, and then tried to ask.
"It's the seller of this bluefin tuna. I don't know if he is familiar with Mr. Guo, so he bought it back at the highest price, and then transferred it to Mr. Guo at the average price. Zhou Deyi did not hide it.
"Is it Lin Fan? He caught this bluefin tuna? Is he really the CEO of a fishing company? Guo Yu'er next to her suddenly screamed in surprise.
"This is a little girl, he and Lin are always college classmates." Seeing Zhou Deyi looking at Guo Yuer, Guo Jiahe hurriedly introduced.
"I see, that makes sense. Lin Fan, this kid values love and righteousness, and he is a good child. My kid and he are in the same dormitory in the university, and this time I went to sea with him, and the pearls I picked up alone were worth more than 100,000 yuan. Hehe, then please come with me, go through the relevant procedures, and we will send a special car to your hotel for bluefin tuna meat. ”
"Uncle Zhou, where is Lin Fan?" Guo Yu'er asked with a blushing face.
"Lin Fan is gone, his fishing company is being renovated, and things are busy." After listening to Zhou Deyi's words, Guo Yuer looked at the street in the distance, with some tears in her eyes. >
