1737 Biaowang was born
The entire conference room was stunned, and no one could have predicted the direction of the charity auction.
Although Lu Ke's reputation in the entire Bay Area has reached its peak, he is only a third-year student after all, and he has not yet retired, and it is far from the time to "settle his career". This is outrageous!
In the real sense, it was "shocked"!
Now, the eyes are focused on the 33rd and the 95th, as if they are watching a tennis match live, and the eyes continue to rotate back and forth between the two people, and the burning gaze makes the atmosphere of the scene reach a new peak.
At this time, Stephanie's price increase had increased to $10,000, but she still had no determination to stop the 33rd and 95th from continuing to bid.
From the path of 320,000 to 350,000, and came to 400,000 without any suspense, and then, the speed of the quotation finally slowed down again, and now the highest price is 95, and 33 hesitated for a moment, under the gaze of Stephanie and the audience, he waited for a while, and finally raised the sign.
"Four hundred and one thousand."
Stephanie still had a professional smile on her face, but her bright eyes still revealed her excitement at the moment, and her gaze projected towards Ninety-Five, "Now the highest price has come to four hundred and one thousand, is there still four hundred and twenty thousand?" Mr. Thirty-Three is the highest price, we are now auctioning the only one in the world of the 'nameless jersey', the difference is that the name column is presented by Lu Ke's autograph, obviously, this is not a jersey that can be reproduced, not to mention, this jersey has also experienced an important match that will go down in history......"
In the midst of Stephanie's incendiary words, Ninety-Five held up the sign again, "Four hundred and twenty thousand! Obviously, Ninety-Five came prepared, waited and waited, just for this auction item, and now he will definitely not give up easily, even if the auction number has reached an incredible height now, he still gritted his teeth and followed.
But the situation on the scene changed slightly, No. 95 had just finished raising the sign and quoting, and No. 33 did not hesitate to raise the sign again, "Four hundred and thirty thousand." ”
"Mr. Thirty-Three bids four hundred and thirty thousand! Four hundred and thirty thousand! Now the highest price has come to 430,000! Stephanie's voice was slightly uplifted, revealing her emotional surge - even she had no idea that this charity auction would be so expensive.
Stephanie cast her gaze towards Ninety-Five, "I'll check now, is there four hundred and forty thousand?" If not, the auction ends here. Excuse me, is there still 440,000? Four hundred and forty thousand? ”
In the face of No. 33's determination, No. 95 still failed to show his courage after all, and the current price has been far beyond imagination, and in the end he could only let out a long breath and gave up his intention to continue to compete, and his eyes had already revealed a suffocating look.
Stephanie caught it, and she also noticed the change in the atmosphere of the scene, so she simply retracted her gaze, scanned the whole room, and began to close the auction, "Four hundred and thirty thousand!" Four hundred and thirty thousand! Deal! A heavy hammer blow also officially determined the highest bid in the field today.
"Standard King", born!
is 430,000, which is definitely an unbelievable number, not only easily surpassing the transaction price of the "Bat Boy Suit"; It is also 4,300 times higher than the initial estimate of 100 US dollars, showing Lu Ke's super popularity and the positive attitude of all the guests.
If Lu Ke just bought the "Bat Boy Suit" for $160,000, people may still suspect that Lu Ke is promoting Jiang Youning; Now all the speculation can be gone, and it was a successful auction – and a great success, both in terms of the momentum of the auction and the enthusiasm of the final bidder!
Now, people finally have a clear understanding of Lu Ke's super popularity: it is just a college jersey, just a jersey without a name and back code, just a jersey with an original price of only $11.99, but it was finally auctioned for a super high price of $430,000!
This is the power of Lu Ke's current prestige! This is the strong influence that Lu Ke now has in the Bay Area! That's the super popularity of the first person in the NFL today!
Unbeatable!
When Stephanie dropped the hammer, the guests spontaneously gave a standing ovation and gave warm applause to No. 33 and Lu Ke.
Logan and Aldon and others even let out a series of strange shouts, mixed with applause and whistles, which really pushed the atmosphere to a high level!
Lu Ke hugged Candace, then took the initiative to stand up, smiled at the guests and gestured to the guests, and walked straight towards the No. 33 guest, taking the initiative to shake hands, hug, and express gratitude, "This really flatters me." Lu Ke told the truth, he himself was scared.
The No. 33 guest looks very young, should not be less than thirty years old, but the suit and leather outfit reveals a trace of the temperament of the Wall Street elite, which is not unusual at Stanford University, because Silicon Valley is next to it, and because many students started their own businesses in college, they are obviously the elite of society, and the No. 33 in front of him should be a leader, although he is young, he is already rich.
"My pleasure!" The No. 33 guest said with a smile on his face, "It's a surprise that the team can break into the Super Bowl again; And it's fate for the team to have you as a quarterback. So, I believe that this shirt has a lot of potential and I would be very, very sorry if I missed it today. Now, I can wear that jersey to the Mets stadium and watch this year's Super Bowl. ”
"Haha, if you keep saying that, I'm going to start to be complacent." Lu Ke also replied with a smile, "I hope my jersey can bring you good luck." ”
The thirty-third guest pursed the corners of his mouth and bowed his head slightly, "Then, when the time comes, I will bring good luck to the team on the spot, I think, this is a good deal." ”
"Good luck worth four hundred and thirty thousand dollars! I think the blessings should be enough. Lu Ke's joke made all the guests around him laugh.
In this way, the auction came to an end in peak state, and it was destined to be a sensational event in the Bay Area!
Lu Ke's "No. 11 Unknown Jersey" and "Miles Scott's "Batboy Jersey" both became the focus of attention, and successively refreshed the highest amount of the auction, which made people clearly feel the enthusiasm of the participating guests, and the topic effect brought by the highest price sparked heated discussions on social networks!
A story about that jersey, about memories of a Christmas miracle, about the prestige of the San Francisco 49ers throughout the Bay Area, about the frenzy on the auction floor...... And so on, just like the Golden Globe Awards ceremony that just ended last week, this charity auction also made quite a splash.
And that's just part of it! What's more, according to the detailed statistics after the end of the auction, the final auction price was as high as 1.73 million US dollars!
There are no priceless works of art, no billionaires who spend a lot of money, and they simply rely on donations from their personal collections, most of which are from ordinary people, to fetch such high prices, which is truly incredible, and has undoubtedly become the topic of conversation in Chang'an.
On the one hand, the organizers led by Jiang Youning, through online and offline interactive publicity, and also by inviting the participation of the San Francisco 49ers players, created a topic and a boom, and the final auction price was indeed very gratifying; On the other hand, the influence of the San Francisco 49ers, in addition to Lu Ke, the items of Aldon, Logan, Marcus, Willis and others were also auctioned for good prices, making people feel the team's strong appeal in the entire Bay Area, especially after the National League finals.
Who knows? Maybe in two weeks' time, the team will be able to go further?
The charity auction has finally come to an end, but the aftermath is still slowly fermenting.
Because the "nameless No. 11 jersey" has created too many topics, so that all the focus has been snatched away, and people have forgotten the courage shown by Lu Ke when he auctioned the "Bat Boy Suit" before - that kind of inevitable posture really created a lot of topics on the scene:
Some people speculate that Lu Ke is making a scene for Jiang Youning, and some people speculate that Lu Ke spent money to buy fame...... There are not a few negative conjectures, and there was even a suspicion that it might ruin the reputation of the entire auction, but with the boom of bidding for Lu Ke's jersey, those gossips were not attacked, and even directly forgotten.
If Lu Ke didn't deliberately raise the auction price in order to support Jiang Youning, then what was Lu Ke's purpose in buying this "Bat Boy Suit" at an outrageous price of 160,000?
Is it to give it back to Miles Scott and then make a name for himself? If this is the case, it would be too much, even for charity, it is not necessary to do so much, too deliberate will appear false; But if not, then why? Or is it that Lu Ke auctioned it off for his personal collection? This...... There's nothing wrong with that.
In the face of those disturbing speculations, Lu Ke never responded, and the curious did not need to wait too long, the truth slowly surfaced.
To be exact, they waited less than seventy-two hours.
