Chapter 517: An Auction Full of Gunpowder

At 9 o'clock in the morning on February 25, the 10th day of the first lunar month, the auction of Baicheng Daily Chemicals Company was officially held at the Riverside Hotel. Representing Binhai Wenyang Holding Group were Deputy General Manager Han Jianguo and Chief Financial Officer Chen Suying.

With the experience of holding corporate auctions in the past few years, Baicheng City has become familiar with this, and Lu Mengyong, who is in charge of industrial enterprises, personally pressed the formation, and all the main leaders of the First Light Bureau were present, and reporters from various media in the city were invited to shoot and interview.

The auction omits the leader's speech, and the host begins with a detailed introduction to the content of the auction bidding and the bidding procedures and rules.

The reserve price of the state-owned shares of the daily chemicals company is 18 million yuan, and each bidding will increase by 1 million yuan. If there is no bidder who bids and no one raises the bid, the auctioneer will immediately announce the winning bidder after asking three times on the spot and no one continues to bid.

After explaining the precautions, the host handed the microphone to the auctioneer, and he looked around the venue and officially announced, "The auction of state-owned shares of Baicheng Daily Chemical Company starts now!"

The bidding numbers of the foreign big brand companies, Binhai Wenyang Holding Group Company and the Municipal Organic Chemical Plant participating in the auction are No. 1 to No. 3. The organic chemical plant is obviously here to make up the numbers, but in fact, the company represented by Qiu Hongxiang and the Binhai Wenyang Holding Group Company represented by Han Jianguo have a face-to-face battle.

As soon as the auctioneer announced the start of the auction, Qiu Hongxiang proudly held up the No. 1 sign and said, "We offer 25 million!"

The reserve price of the auction of state-owned shares was 18 million yuan, and it did not reach 20 million yuan after raising the bid by 1 million yuan, and I never thought that Qiu Hongxiang would raise the price to 25 million in one go!

The audience let out a burst of exclamations, and the auctioneer nervously said, "Didn't I just say that, gentleman? Each time you raise your sign, it means that the auction will increase by $1,000."

"A million dollars is too little!" Qiu Hongxiang said disdainfully: "We don't have time to play games with these small businesses, so we just have a price of 25 million."

Seeing that he was so persistent, the auctioneer hurriedly went to discuss with the host, and finally announced, "Buyer No. 1 bid 25 million, please continue to bid."

The organic chemical factory came to help set off the atmosphere to complete the auction task, and at this time, seeing that the price instantly rose to an incredible 25 million, the representative they sent directly pestled the offer card to the ground and looked lively.

Before Han Jianguo came, Geng Wenyang specially told him to use a preemptive strategy to completely break the other party's confidence, so he was not in a hurry, and only when everyone turned their eyes to him did he raise the number plate in his hand calmly.

The auctioneer was very happy to see that he had not given up and that today's play could continue, "26 million!"

As soon as his words fell, Qiu Hongxiang did not hesitate to raise the number plate in his hand and said, "Twenty-seven million!"

"Twenty-seven million!" The auctioneer pulled his throat and said, "The number one price is 27 million! Are you still following Number Two?"

Han Jianguo sneered, held up the sign and said, "Twenty-eight million!"

As soon as his words fell, Qiu Hongxiang immediately shouted, "Twenty-nine million!"

Seeing that the bids from both sides of the bidding continued to rise, the auctioneer couldn't help but rejoice, "29 million! Is Number Two still following?"

Han Jianguo raised the number plate in the air, and said in a loud voice, "Thirty million!"

"Thirty-one million!"

"Thirty-two million!"

Qiu Hongxiang and Han Jianguo are like a bar, you chase after me, no one will bow their heads and admit defeat, and the auction bid soon rose to an astonishing 40 million.

The onlookers were stunned! My good boy! From 18 million to 40 million, it is more than double the reserve price.

Qiu Hongxiang thought that the other party would follow at most 35 million, but he didn't expect it to catch up to 40 million. At this time, it was his turn to make an offer, and the auctioneer urged, "The second price is 40 million! Is Number One still with me?"

The reserve price given to him by the boss behind the scenes cannot exceed 40 million, and now that it has reached the threshold of the limit, it is a pity to give it up in vain.

After a little hesitation, Qiu Hongxiang gritted his teeth and raised the sign stiffly

"Forty-one million!"

"Forty-two million!" Han Jianguo followed closely and raised the number plate.

Chen Suying heard Han Jianguo report the number of 42 million, and knew that it was the most critical moment, so she couldn't help but whisper: "Mr. Han!"

Han Jianguo glanced sideways at her and said in a deep voice, "Steady!"

42 million has exceeded the maximum price limit of 2 million explained by the boss behind the scenes, Qiu Hongxiang didn't dare to follow the bidding again, and shook his head helplessly.

"Forty-two million once!" The auctioneer looked at Qiu Hongxiang's dejected appearance and knew that he had given up, but he still proceeded step by step according to the rules.

"Forty-two million twice!"

The auctioneer saw Qiu Hongxiang leaning back in his chair and closed his eyes, waited for a few seconds, and then shouted loudly, "Four two million three times!"

Qiu Hongxiang was silent like a dead man, and the auctioneer immediately raised his hammer and said, "Bah!" announced: "The final price is 42 million, and the second buyer wins the bid!"

Final word! Han Jianguozhi stood up proudly and clasped his fists at everyone present.

Chen Suying, who was on the side, secretly admired and said, "Mr. Geng let us prepare according to 40 million, and gave Mr. Han 5 million free decision. Today's victory or defeat lies in the extra five million, and it seems that everything in today's auction was expected by Mr. Geng."

Under the siege and interview of many media reporters, Han Jianguo said seriously: "The reason why our Binhai Wenyang Holding Group Company spends tens of millions of dollars to compete for daily chemical companies today is to protect our national industry and national brand and prevent them from falling into the greedy hands of foreign capitalists." new

He said righteously in front of the dazzling spotlight: "Mr. Geng Wenyang, chairman of our group company, is a person with a sense of family and country, and he wants to protect our national industry within the scope of his ability, and assume the most basic mission and responsibility as a Chinese person."

That night, the Parktown News program aired footage of the auction interview. When he saw Han Jianguo talking and praising himself in front of many reporters, Geng Wenyang couldn't help laughing and said, "My cousin is quite good at blowing, how can I be as good as he says?"

"You deserve this compliment for being willing to spend more than 40 million yuan to snatch control of state-owned enterprises from foreigners." Gan Ruolan did not hesitate to admire: "Husband, in my eyes, you are the best entrepreneur in China."

Geng Wenyang laughed and said, "I'm not, there are more entrepreneurs who are stronger than me and better than me. At most, I can count them in our city, and I won't be very conspicuous in the whole country."

"You're humble." Gan Ruolan said proudly: "My own husband is the best, I don't care if other people are good or not."

With that, she turned to her son, who was playing by himself, and asked, "Zhuangzhuang, is Daddy the best?"

Zhuang Zhuang put down the car in his hand, stood up straight, nodded like a little adult, and said, "Hmm! Daddy is the best! Best Daddy!"
