Paris. Hilton's arrangement made the Hilton family very satisfied, although there were many dissatisfied remarks within the family about her choice to become the CEO of Linsen Company, and there was even a talk of taking away her right to be the heir of the Hilton family.

With these two and a half months of Paris. Hilton in Wood. A series of excellent operations of the Lin Company, Paris. Hilton's ability not only won over discerning Wall Street financial experts and well-known CEOs across the United States, but also made her ability recognized within the Hilton family.

And a lot of activities in these two and a half months, Paris. Hilton Dutong Guò cooperated with Hilton hotels, which once made many hotel tycoons dissatisfied with Paris. Hilton's unfair competition practices.

But Paris. Hilton didn't let herself be the talker, but announced each collaboration with Paris. Hilton's fee, and each time it is higher than the normal market price.

This made the dissenting hotel tycoons shut up, and before this bidding meeting, Paris . Hilton adopted an online bidding bid to host the bidding of major hotels, and in the end, Hilton spent $5 million to beat out many hotels to become the organizer this time.

Although every time it is hosted by Wood. Lin Company's activities cost a lot, but the advertising effect brought by each time was direct, which also made some dissatisfied voices within the family quiet.

"Welcome to our live broadcast, I'm the host Erin. Andrews, today I'm going to take you through a competition that will bring together the world's biggest media giants.

I don't think I need to go into detail about the bidding, you must have seen our tips. "Erin. Andrews appears on the TV camera.

She was in charge of the live broadcast of today's world-renowned bidding event, and she was also the owner of the competition. Hilton's means of increasing Linson's revenue.

When she decided that she was going to hold a bidding meeting, many media wanted to broadcast it live. Finally Paris. Hilton opted for the bidding model anyway.

In the end, ESPN defeated ABC, CBS, TNT, and FOX to obtain the exclusive live broadcast rights. Of course, they spent a full $1 million on it. In addition to this, ESPN will also participate in today's bidding meeting. Andrews will be in charge of the live broadcast of the auction.

"We can see that the conference hall that can accommodate 200 people is very luxuriously furnished, and there are some simple foods in the corner of the conference hall, which must look delicious.

Behind the auction table is a huge LED screen, and the name of the magazine that each of the bidders will have on it, which will be familiar to you if you've watched the NBA draft, and I've heard that the logo and name of the magazine will be zoomed in on the whole screen as soon as the offer appears, so I think it's an opportunity to promote the magazine. "Erin. Andrews said, pointing to the stage.

"Also, you have to wonder how these representatives are ranked. To be fair, tonight's seats are based on last year's global magazine rankings, and if nothing else, there are rumors that TIME, which is preparing to win the bid for a big deal before the game, will be at the first table, and they will be joined by Fortune, Vogue America and VanityFair. ”

Erin. Andrews made a quick introduction, and the participants of the bidding began to enter.

Under the guidance of the on-site staff, the representatives of each family began to take their seats.

"Now that all the delegates are in attendance, I have a list in my hand, and the delegates who are here today include almost all the well-known magazines, not only those focused on entertainment, fashion, and general magazines, but also economic magazines and magazines focused on journalism.

It may seem incredible, but I can't go wrong with the list, and we counted a total of 100 magazines coming tonight. It involves the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and other countries and regions.

I don't know if it's possible on the day I give birth, but I don't think it's possible in this lifetime. Unless the child I gave birth to was Wood. Lin's, haha, it's a joke, don't mind. "Erin. Andrews said with a smile.

When Paris. When Hilton walked in from outside the conference room, the room fell silent.

"Thank you to everyone who was there, thank you for your efforts for charity, today is a bidding meeting, but it's actually Wood. The Lin family and our Wood. Lin Company does for charity.

I would also like to thank Wood. Lin company owners as well as our customers, and of course we can't forget to thank Wood. Lin and Natalie. Portman, Lindsay. Luo Han, I don't think we would all be here without them.

Originally Wood today. Lin will be there to speak, but he won't be able to come because there is still a game in the evening, but I believe he is a philanthropic person like everyone else, and after the bidding meeting, we have prepared tickets for tonight's live game between the Orlando Magic and the Boston Celtics at home.

There are boxes and sideline seats to choose from, and the locations are very good, so if you are interested, please go and I think tonight's game will be exciting. "Paris in a sheer black dress with deep V fringe edges. Hilton said with a smile.

"I would like to announce the official opening of the bidding session with the invitation of our auctioneer, Josh. Mr. Boone. "Paris. Hilton gestured at Josh. Boone walked up to the stage.

"Now the bidding will officially begin, and the first one to be bid on is Natalie. The reserve price for the first photograph of Portman's child's birth is $100,000, and it should be said that magazines from the United States and Europe can also participate in the auction.

They will receive the local photo rights if they send the highest bid before the end of the bidding round, and their final acquisition will not be announced until the end of the bidding session. ”

Erin. After Andrews finished speaking, the logos of various media appeared on the LED screen on the stage, also according to the seating arrangement.

"$200,000." People magazine was the first to call out the offer. And the logo and quote of the magazine immediately appeared on the screen.

With the beginning of "People" magazine. The bidding will be heated all at once. One by one, the price of the first bid skyrocketed rapidly.

"Oh, that's crazy, now the price has come to $800,000, you know, this price is already in the tenth place on the list of celebrity baby prices, and he is alone, not with his parents, this price is really far more than we expected.

You can imagine how high the price will be in the later group photo, and we have to popularize science that these prices are not arbitrarily formulated but have a certain basis.

At present, the main references are the status of parents, the influence of parents during pregnancy, whether parents can usually arouse great public interest, the mother's beauty index, and the father's handsome index.

In the end, a rigorous calculation was made based on the above factors: the value of the company photo = the fame of the parents× the charm of the mother during pregnancy × the attractiveness of the parents.

If the child is adopted. You have to deduct two-thirds.

According to this company everyone can know Wood. The price of Lin's children's photos will not be low. ”

Erin. While Andrews was speaking, People magazine paid $1 million for the first bid, and Hello magazine in the United Kingdom won the rights to use it in the UK for $800,000.

The second bid was for Lindsay. Separate photo of Lohan's child, but Lindsay. Lohan and Natalie. Natalie's fame is not a grade, and Lindsay. There were also many scandals before Lohan's pregnancy, even the reserve price of her photos as the queen of Hollywood was only $50,000, and the final price was $500,000.

It was Natalie who finished the film. Portman with the child, thanks to the subsequent presence of Linson Natalie. Portman and the child took a group photo, and the auction of this photo did not appear at the expected price, and the American version was finally won by Vanity Fair for 2 million.

And followed by Lindsay. The photo of Lohan and the child was taken by The New Yorker magazine for 1.4 million. After these four events, the first climax was ushered in.

Lin Sen, Natalie. The reserve price of Portman and the child's photo is as high as $2 million, which can already rank fourth among the child's birth photos. And this is still the floor price.

In the end, a frantic scramble was fought for the photo by the fashion magazine ELLE for a record $7 million, and then Lindsay. Lohan and his child were photographed by Vogue for $5 million.

"I think today's climax has just arrived, and we can see that many magazines have not made much movement before, obviously they are here for the last stand, and the last photo will be Lin Sen Natalie. Portman, Lindsay. The base price of this photo of Lohan and his children is as high as $5 million, and it is sure to easily leave the $7 million price record of ELLE magazine behind. ”

Erin. Andrews was right, the magazines with ideas and money were all waiting for the end, even though the photo would be because of Lindsay. The child in Luo Han's womb was born almost 20 days late. Portman's child has long been exposed, but that doesn't affect its value in the slightest.

"I claimed to have prepared a $20 million "hello! The British magazine only won the first bid, and we can see that the representative who came on their behalf was ready for battle, showing a different state of mind than the previous four rounds.

And we can see that the same is true for People magazine, and the show is about to begin. ”

With Erin. Andrews's voice fell, and the final auction finally began, and the reserve price of the photo, which was as high as $5 million, was raised to 7 million by People magazine at the beginning.

"The price increase of 2 million in one go, "People" magazine is really crazy, you must know that this is just the beginning, but I think his price increase will not scare the competitors who want to win this photo."

As soon as the representative of "People" magazine finished shouting, Forbes, which had not made a bid in the previous four rounds, immediately shouted: "8 million! ”

The voice of "Fox" has not yet fallen, and the "hello! The magazine asked for 10 million, a price that made everyone in front of the TV gasp.

"11 million!"

"12 million!"

"13 million!"

"14 million!"

……

"I think you guys in front of the TV must have nothing to say like me, the world is completely crazy." Erin at the scene. Andrews was more shocked than the audience in front of the television.

And the on-site "Forbes" quoted again, and the price has come to a sky-high price of 17 million.

"17 million for the first time!"

"17 million for the second time!"

"Is there anyone else bidding? 17 million ...... "Josh. Boone hadn't shouted out for the third time. The quote appears again below.

"17.5 million!"

However, the quote from PEOPLE magazine caused the audience in front of the TV to boo. Because before all magazines were one million plus a million. At this moment, only 500,000 yuan has been added, which undoubtedly exposes that the price is close to or even exceeds their original psychological expectations.

Just when people thought that the offer was almost over, another voice outside Forbes magazine rang out: "19 million!" ”

"Oh, it's Time Magazine, and it's up 1.5 million, such a crazy big deal." Erin. Andrews didn't know what to say anymore.

In fact, what these magazines care about is influence, and the real money is not made by selling magazines to make money, otherwise it is not an easy number to make 17 million, otherwise this offer would not be so crazy.

Josh. Boone was about to shout 19 million for the first time. Forbes once again shouted an offer of 20 million.

The representative of Forbes looks like he is determined to win, and no one knows that Forbes is preparing to launch a celebrity baby worth list this year, so they want to get this photo so much.

People magazine was a little disappointed, because they had expected it to be 15 million, and the maximum could not exceed 18 million, and it was revealed that 17.5 million was close to their tolerance line, and Times and Forbes directly broke their tolerance.

On the other side, "hello! magazine didn't regret it, as they ended up spending 14 million to get the rights to the photo's UK distribution.

In the end, Forbes, which ranked only 17th in the world last year, beat Time Magazine for 23 million to gain the right to use it.

(Note: In fact, the top two real records of this celebrity baby photo are all written by Angelina. Julie and Brad. Pitt maintains that there is no real record for the time it took to get to the book, and in 2010 the couple sold photos of the dragon and phoenix to People magazine for $16 million. It is also used for charity, so Xiao Ai here is not a nonsense without a little basis. ）

When Irene. After Andrews bids all the national and regional bids. In front of the TV, some viewers picked up the calculator in their hands or the calculator in their mobile phones and began to add and calculate.

$66.5 million, that's the sum of all the final bids for this auction.

This price shocked the whole world, although everyone thought that this bidding would set a zào record, and even brought a celebrity to give birth to a child to bid for the child's photos, but no one expected that the price would be so high, it has far exceeded people's estimates.

Lin Sen, who was conducting pre-game adaptation training at the Water House Center, did not go to the scene, but he did not train either, because the whole team did not have the heart to train at all. Van Gundy is allowed not to train.

The Magic watched ESPN's live broadcast in the locker room one by one, and went crazy with every price increase. Howard jumped up in an instant.

"Dwight, if you weren't as excited tonight as you are now, I think you'd be on the bench for a long time." Stan. Van Gundy looked at Howard and said.

"Dwight, you're finished, Kendrick. Perkins is not easy to deal with. Billups immediately quipped.

"Alright, let's go train, if you don't train Stan again, you'll blame me." Linsen clapped his hands and said, although tonight's opponent Celtic won the first meeting of the season, and it was still away.

But that game relied on Lin Sen's crazy outburst, especially in the fourth quarter, Lin Sen scored 34 points in a single quarter, setting a new NBA single-quarter scoring record, and scoring 54 points in the whole game was also the highest score in his career.

It was with Linsen's explosive performance that the Magic defeated the Celtics on the road, and Linson was also ejected from the game after receiving two technical fouls in the first game.

For Boston fans, though, the memories of that game are clearly dark. Especially at the last moment, Lin Sen's throat-cutting gift to them was a heavy punch.

This game is an away game though. But Boston fans still hope that they Celtics can take a win away from Orlando.

Orlando fans and the media don't want that. They always believe that the Magic will be able to hold this home court, and they believe that the father-to-be Lin Sen can continue to maintain his hot form.

The bidding for the Hilton is over, and there are groups of reporters outside the Hilton Hotel, all eager to get the latest news.

When the bigwigs of the magazines came out, the reporters at the door were still surprised, although they were mentally prepared for it, they still did not expect to attract so many well-known magazines.

The representative of the magazine "People" was very unhappy that he did not achieve the set goal, refused all the interviews of journalists and left alone, while the British magazine "Hello! and Forbes representatives were happy to cooperate with the reporter.

At the same time, "hello! In an interview with reporters, the magazine also announced that it would invest another $3 million in the Linsen Foundation after its establishment.

On the other hand, Forbes magazine announced that it would launch the list of celebrity babies for the first time in the next issue of the magazine, and also announced that it would take an additional 3 million to join the charity.

"23 million = one photo" - USA Today website.

"The Time to Sell Photos" -- Los Angeles Times website. 》……

Almost instantly, news about the auction grabbed headlines from major websites around the world, whether it was mainstream news, entertainment, economics or fashion.

Yahoo also reported on the front page, and gave a public survey on the front page about the matter.

There are quite a few netizens who are worried about Paris. Hilton said he couldn't, after all, $66.5 million was not for Bill. Gates is not a lot of money, but for Linsen, it's not a small amount of money but a huge amount of money.

Soon, though, Paris. Hilton is right in Wood. The official website of Lin Company updated the content of today's bidding meeting, and at the same time opened a charity foundation page on the official website.

Paris. Hilton also revealed in an interview that Wood. The Lin Foundation is in the process of being established, and every penny will be announced in detail for public scrutiny, and at the same time, it will follow the model of the Gates Foundation.

In the face of the reporter's concern that he would not be able to do charity due to investment losses, Hilton even gave that once the investment loss would be caused by Wood. Lin Company made a minimum commitment.

For Paris. Lin Son agrees with Hilton's decision, and all willingly, rather than following suit, because the United States has a deep tradition of philanthropy. After all, no matter how much money there is, it's a number.

When the news reached China on the other side of the ocean, the Chinese people were shocked. 66.5 million or US dollars was sold by selling photos, and more importantly, all the money was donated.

Nowadays, this trend has not yet formed in China, except for the Hong Kong media, there are not many media in the mainland of China that will spend a lot of money to buy photos of celebrities' children, even if there is a price, not only can it not be compared with Europe and the United States, but it cannot be compared with Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The highest was on May 27, 2006, when Faye Wong's daughter was worth 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, and Hong Kong media reported it.

The highest in Hong Kong and Taiwan is Nicholas Tse and Cecilia Cheung's son LUACS, who set a record for the value of Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrity babies in May this year, 10 million Hong Kong dollars, this price is not the price of birth photos, but the price of endorsement.

The price of $66.5 million undoubtedly shows the value of the Lin Sen family, and some people even joke that if Lin Sen really has children with all the women at the crazy Christmas wedding one day, then the auction price of this family photo will reach a real sky-high price, and it is even likely that multiple magazines will join forces to win it.

Although it is a joke, it has been recognized by many people.

And the mothers of the two children who participated in the bidding are all in the hospital at the moment. Portman was lying in a hospital bed, and she couldn't go to the game tonight, and although she wanted to, she couldn't resist Linsen's decision to stay in the hospital today, and she could only watch the evening game on the Guò TV.

She was accompanied by Carolina and Lindsay. Lohan, Amanda. Seyfried had flown away from Orlando the other day because of work, and her mom, Shirley. Stevens will be in Orlando this evening to accompany her.

"He kicked me again." Natalie. Portman touched his stomach and smiled. The face is full of maternal radiance. Even though her skin is still as good as it was after pregnancy. But the weight has come to 135 pounds, nearly 40 pounds heavier than before she was pregnant.

And Lindsay. Luo Han reached nearly 150 pounds, which is 50 pounds heavier than before pregnancy.

"It must be a boy." Carolina touched Natalie. In addition to being happy from the bottom of his heart, Portman's stomach was also a little envious.

She also wonders why she didn't get pregnant at first, but then thinks about it in order to be able to take good care of Natalie. Portman and Lindsay. After a few attempts, Lohan gave up on the idea of getting pregnant.

Carolina's thoughts Lindsay. Lohan doesn't know, but Natalie. Portman knew very well that she thanked Carolina from the bottom of her heart for her generosity.

"He and the little one in Lindsay's belly are all of our children, and we will all be nice to them." Natalie. Portman pulls Lindsay. Lohan's hand.

"Yes, Nata's point is good."

“KK。 When the time comes, when we are finished, and then you have another one, so that the little ones can have a companion from an early age, and that kind of childhood is interesting. ”

"Nata, what are you talking nonsense, I won't give birth." Carolina's face turned red, she wouldn't go to the Water House Center tonight to watch the game, although the hospital had the best special care, Carolina was still not at ease.

As night fell, fans outside the center of the water house also entered the stadium one after another. This league-wide battle has captured the attention of fans across the United States.

"Today was a great day, and I tuned in to ESPN live in the morning. I only have one feeling, Bill, do you know what it feels like? Hoffman turned to look at Bill. Walton.

"Oh, what does it feel like? Want to have one yourself? "Bill. Wharton laughed, "Even if you give them money, they won't let you be on the cover." ”

"Bill, you're hurting me, that's not what I'm going to say, what I'm going to say is that the gap between people and people is too big, just five photos, oh my God, it sold for nearly $66.5 million worldwide, which is incredible, but my feeling is more celebrities, you have more children, so the whole world will be sheltered because of this."

"Oh, there will be people scolding you because you cut off their money, not everyone is like Brad. Pete, Angelina. Julie and Wood gave all their proceeds to benefit those in need. ”

Bill. Wharton's words are not bad at all, but the actions of Lin Sen and the earlier Brands and Pitts have undoubtedly set a benchmark for others, especially Lin Sen who took out all the 66.5 million yuan for charity this time.

If those celebrities use the money from their children's photos for themselves in the future, then it will undoubtedly be questioned by the public.

"You've done a good job, I've seen it all in the hotel, I'm proud of you." Garnett walked up to Lin Sen and hugged Lin Sen.

"KG, what you said makes me feel like I'm your child." Lin Sen said with a smile.

"I'll donate when your foundation is built, but I'm not going to give you my blessing tonight."

"Hey, I don't need your blessing, and do you think you can walk away with victory?"

"See you then." Garnett and Linson's fists collided and separated, and Linson immediately said a brief hello to the rest of the Celtics, and the game was about to begin.

"The good game is about to begin, let's see if Wood, who set several records in Boston last time, will break out as an expectant dad on his home turf." Hoffman said, looking at the field.

Just as the Magic and Celtics game had just begun, Natalie was in the hospital. Portman's stomach hurt a little more than ever, but it hurt a little better after a while.

This made Carolina and Lindsay. Lohan breathed a sigh of relief, and Carolina almost called the doctor.

"This little guy is tormenting me, as bad as his dad." Natalie. Portman breathed a sigh of relief and touched his stomach with his hand.

"How did Nata Wood toss you?" Carolina quipped, and at this time Lin Sen faced Ray on TV. Allen's defense hit a jumper straight away, and the cheers of the fans were heard on the TV.

"Oh, Wood made a pacifier sucking motion, and our father-to-be Wood can't wait to be a dad." Bill. Wharton looked at Lin Sen who was doing celebration on the field and said with a smile.

The game continued, and the father-to-be Lin Sen was in the same excellent form as the previous games. Rivers looked at Linson on the court with a headache.

The team has protected Lin Sen from the inside out, but it still failed to form an effective containment of Lin Sen.

"It's Wood again, this time it's an assist from Wood, and Ron picks up James after receiving the ball. Posey shot well, look at Doug's depressed appearance, it was not easy to limit Wood today, but fortunately, Boston's offense was doing well tonight. "Bill. Wharton said with a smile.

At this time, the big screen clearly showed 24:20, and the Orlando Magic, who were playing at home, were leading by 4 points.

With three minutes left before the end of the first quarter, Stan. Van Gundy looked at the time and was ready to move on to the substitutions.

Back on the offensive end, the Celtics played a combination and eventually got the ball into Pierce's hands.

With only a slight chance, Pierce made a direct jumper against Artest's defense, and his shot went into the basket to help the Celtics chase the deficit to just two points.

"PP also had a good hand tonight, Ron's pace was only a little slower to give him a chance, and PP rarely took the initiative to play alone tonight, and more often received teammates to share the ball and shoot."

Bill. Wharton glanced at Paul. Pierce: "Obviously, PP consciously shared his body tonight, and this style of play can ensure that he is more energetic later, after all, this game is not an ordinary game.

The entire Eastern Conference is one of three teams in Orlando, Boston, and Cleveland to enter the Finals stage.

Judging from the previous games of this season, Boston and Cleveland have played each other twice and won all of them, and it can be seen in the game that Boston is not afraid of Cleveland, even if they don't win Cleveland by many points in the end, and the game against Orlando is also very anxious and loses much, but it can be clearly felt that the two teams are different from each other. ”

At this time, Lin Sen on the field changed direction and accelerated to break through and throw off the thunder. Allen's defense goes straight inside while Natalie inside the hospital. Portman's stomach hurt again. (To be continued......)
