North America, Dallas.

A manor house is located in this secluded and beautiful woodland, and a nearby hunting ground is also an asset of the estate, and it is impossible to enjoy such a residence if it is no longer worth more than 3 billion dollars.

A black sedan drove into the estate, and a young man in a professional suit stepped out of the car.

"You're mysterious on the phone, why don't you show up for the video conference?"

"You'll find out in a moment."

The young man arrived at a mansion on the manor, and was led by an English butler to a bedroom where Elkins, the owner of the manor, was lying on a bed in the bedroom and cared for by a personal medical staff24.

"Don't bother me about the company or the family."

The 98-year-old Elkins is already speechless, and the Elkins family and several other major families control the Texas consortium, one of the top ten conglomerates in North America, and it is needless to say how rich they are.

Even if he has more wealth and power than 99.99% of the people on the planet, he still has to face death like these people, and the old Elkins's body is getting worse day by day, and every night he sleeps soundly and may never wake up again tomorrow, this state has lasted for a year and a half.

"Grandpa, there's a piece of news that you're going to be very interested in." The man came to the bed, crouched down and looked at the old Elkins who was put on, and said happily.

"." Elkins whispered, a rare smile, but even the smile seemed rather stiff and difficult.

"Grandpa, do you know the Coastline Group and Ye Hua, a Chinese?"

"I've heard of it." Although the old Elkins has failed to live on his own, he is very clear-headed, and the housekeeper has been telling him about the world's current news on a regular basis, and he has not only heard about the Coastline Group and Ye Hua, but also deeply impressed.

But at this moment, Old Elkins's suddenly decaying body suddenly trembled, as if returning to the light, and his eyes waited fiercely for his grandson: "Did you provoke him?" ”

The private doctor was startled when he saw the electrocardiogram on the computer, and the young man was like this, and hurriedly said: "No, absolutely not, it's a bad star, the tragic situation of Mellon, Rockefeller and Morgan is a lesson from the past, and we don't dare to take the initiative to provoke that Chinese man no matter what." ”

Nervous old Elkins stared at his grandson for a long time, and finally judged that he was not lying, and his emotions gradually eased, and at that moment, he thought that his descendants had caused a big accident to come, because old Elkins had barely seen his son since he was bedridden.

"Don't bother me if there's nothing to do."

"No, grandpa, I came here today to tell you a great piece of good news, which can even give you another year or two of your life."

"Hehe, boring fairy tales."

"Shoreline Group has made an incredible breakthrough in the field of life sciences, and they have successfully developed an anti-aging and longevity ...... Gene repair solution? Anyway, we received an invitation letter from Ye Hua that he was about to prepare a bidding session, just in the last few days, three days to be exact. Believe it or not, he's invited almost all the world's wealthy to share in the work, including the Elkins family......"

Old Elkins was finally moved, through the butler's narration, he actually knew a lot of rumors about the Coastline Group and Ye Hua, and the butler told him about the rise of this legendary figure, which is why he was so nervous just now, for fear that the Elkins family would also offend Ye Hua.

"Bring it back."

Old Elkins said calmly, but with a hint of undoubted tone in his tone, without too much inquiry or suspicion.

"I'm afraid it's not that easy, such a miraculous genetic drug should be difficult to make, otherwise he wouldn't be preparing for the auction." The man said in a deep voice, if the amount is enough, selling for the world's rich will definitely make more money than bidding, and there is only one explanation for this situation, that is, the amount is not enough to prepare the auction to obtain the maximum benefit.

"Bring it back. No matter what the cost, bring it back, and you are the ultimate heir. ”

"Yes!" The young man resisted the excitement in his heart, and after a few words, he left the manor.

……

At the same time, the world's richest people are moving, Ye Hua's influence and energy, they choose to believe, just come to the scene is nothing.

Almost no one on the Forbes Global Rich List TOP100 list has fallen, and Ye Hua has even sent a copy of his invitation letter to the Rockefeller family, Morgan family, and Mellon family.

Such a move is not only a clear attempt to earn their money, but also a manifestation of unparalleled self-confidence and indifference, because it is strong.

The New Year's Day of 2024 has just passed, and one after another super-rich people or their clients have rushed to Yongzhen from all over the world, including the Russian rich, the Mexican rich, the French billion, and the Ben billion......

Ye Hua did not emphasize in his invitation letter that he could not spread the news, but all the rich people who received his invitation letter tacitly agreed not to disclose any news to the outside world, at least not until they got it, and the rich people who rushed to Yongzhen were more low-key than the other, and the news was not reported.

Nowadays, the public on the Internet is always happy to discuss class, and some people can even make a fortune by collecting people's "class anxiety", and some people scoff at such statements as alarmist.

However, no one can deny that it does exist objectively.

There is no doubt that what people are most afraid of hearing is "class solidification", the rising channel of the bottom people has been closed, and the argument about whether Huaxia is "class solidified" has always been one of the hot topics, but it is certain that Huaxia is not completely closed, because there are still a large number of rich people who are willing to pretend to be forced is proof, the rich second generation is pretending to be forced, and the big guys are pretending to be forced invisibly, refreshing the height of the force again and again.

In a society with a high degree of class solidification, there will never be rich people who show off their wealth everywhere and pretend to be forced everywhere, but the poor will not feel the existence of the rich at all.

This gap is no longer even a class gap, but a dimensional gap: people from different latitudes will pass by in a blind eye, or even have no chance to pass by, they will not feel the presence of the other.

At this moment, the rich people who have come to Yongzhen from all over the world in the past few days are almost unknown to the outside world, but they definitely can't hide it from the Ministry of State Security.

However, in order not to cause chaos and not to make a big announcement, so many "big names" gathered in one place, and they can try their best not to expand the news, but there is not a lot of protective force secretly added, and a bad incident like San Francisco must not be allowed to happen in Yongzhen.

When these rich people rushed to Yongzhen, one was more low-key than the other, and some even directly rented cars and lived in small hotels.

In Yueben, the top 10 richest people in terms of assets attend events in public, and almost all of them are ordinary Toyotas or Nissans, but they may have more than 10 luxury cars of various types of more than $20 million in their private garages.

In Germany, also attending some public events, Germany's big entrepreneurs will definitely choose the cheapest of all their accessories, and there has been an incident in Germany where a top 50 super-rich person was treated as a beggar because he "used too much force" when attending the event.

But if it's a ball for the rich, it's time for their blinding gems.

Publicly, these German super-rich are concerned not only about the suffering of Germans, but also about whether the suffering of the world will stop suffering. In fact, they are doing well, because because of their taxes, the German subsistence allowance can also be fed and clothed. However, it is also true that these people at the top are constantly moving forward and amassing wealth, while the people at the bottom can only hold what seems to be good and rot at the bottom forever.

In the United States, Gates buys burgers in public like ordinary people, but his tech villa blinds ordinary people's titanium dogs, and even charges for a visit.

Only in China there are still a lot of rich people who will tell stories about truth, goodness and beauty in public, and will be interspersed with all kinds of fancy pretenses to catch people off guard, if the rich people in China are also like those low-key super-rich abroad, they can't feel what they are doing, what they eat, what they wear, who they fall in love with, what they usually like, and what they think.

What they see is just an illusion, or just a part of the truth that they deliberately show to people in order to maintain the standard persona in public, and people always believe that seeing is believing, and in fact the eye is the most deceptive sensory system, but people always believe in it.

A newly opened Hilton hotel in Shuangyue Bay, Yongzhen, has been chartered today, and the super-rich from all over the world have really come here.

In the vicinity of this hotel, I casually met an inconspicuous foreigner, who may be worth tens of billions.

At this moment, it is already about 17 o'clock in the afternoon, the auction will be held in a conference hall in the Hilton Hotel, everything has been arranged, there is no media report during the auction, and the participants are not allowed to record any voice and video, which Ye Hua wants to do will not have a second of voice and a frame of pictures to transmit.

The auction will officially start online at 19:00, followed by a dance party.
