Chapter 329: Bidding Enthusiastically
At this moment, the four siblings are wearing swimsuits and swim trunks, and so are the four children, who have just come up from the beach and are sitting under the beach umbrellas drinking drinks and blowing the sea breeze!
Yun Lei and her mother-in-law sat under another big parasol, bathed in the steaming sea breeze, and the rolling heat on the beach had already made them sweat.
But even so, a large number of tourists still love the beach and the clear water. Men and women dressed in colorful bikinis gathered.
After Ou Zhou finished the phone call, he went with Jiang Yang and Shui Jingxin Ke Fei'er, and called his daughter to take a bath and change clothes.
After changing their clothes, the eight of them teamed up with Yun Lei and a few of them, went out to find Ou Yi, and then went to the seafood restaurant for lunch.
During this period, Yun Lei asked about the situation of the auction company, and Ou Yiran gave a general explanation.
When she heard the unexpected move of the media, Yun Lei looked at Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang and couldn't help laughing: "Sure enough, it is the shadow of a famous tree, if a large number of high-end customers are here to participate in the auction, son, you two must not show up to satisfy people's curiosity?" ”
"That's after the auction is over." Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang glanced at each other and said.
"Yes, show up early, that's not to admit yourself. People will think that we are relying on celebrity status to deliberately drive up the enthusiasm of the auction! Jiang Yang also said.
Yun Lei pouted: "The Burj Al Arab Hotel is located in the ocean, the auction will start the day after tomorrow, why don't we all go, on the one hand, appreciate the strength of the first-class auction company, and secondly, climb to appreciate the special charm of the Persian Gulf. ”
The adults haven't said anything yet, Shui Mingyue has a small mouth and asks first: "Grandma Yun, what is the auction?" ”
Yun Lei sold her guanzi: "Grandma won't tell you now, you will naturally know when you go that day." ”
Shui Mingyue rubbed in front of Ou Yiran and sold cute: "Grandpa Ou, tell me?" ”
Ou Yiran attached to his granddaughter's ear and whispered: "It is to put an item on the stage, and there is a person sitting below who bids, and whoever pays the highest price will belong to whoever owns that item." ”
Shui Mingyue immediately opened her eyebrows and smiled: "Then I will go with the eldest brother, the second sister and the third brother, and we will bid together to buy that item back at a high price." ”
"Mingyue, don't make trouble, that's grandpa's belongings, and it's going to be sold to others." Shui Jingxin explained, "Besides, how can you let a child in on that kind of occasion? ”
"The auction will be broadcast live, can we book a large private room and watch it in the private room?" ”
These words reminded Yun Lei, looked at Ou Yiran and asked, "Is the child really not allowed to enter?" ”
"I haven't asked about this, but most of the time I won't let me in. After all, that kind of occasion is not suitable for small children. ”
"Well, let's go and book a big private room, it's fun to watch the live broadcast inside." Yun Lei said helplessly.
After tasting this seafood feast, it's time of the day when the temperature is at its highest.
As soon as I went out, the adults shouted hot, the children shouted hot, Shui Jingxin and Ke Fei'er combined, it was better to go back to the hotel to enjoy the coolness, and then go out to play in the middle of the afternoon.
More than 20 people then hailed six taxis and rushed back to the Burj Khalifa.
The slight coolness in the guest room is particularly pleasant. A few children fell down on the sofa and stretched their bodies: "It's so cool! ”
Shui Jingxin sighed: "I thought it would be cooler, but I didn't want to be like Singapore, it looks like gold and silver, it's hot." ”
"It's still hot in the middle of the afternoon, so it's better to go out in the evening!" Ou Zhou suggested.
Shui Jingxin discussed with Kefeier and agreed to go out for fun in the evening.
In the middle of the afternoon, Ou Yiran received a call from the person in charge of Sotheby's, saying that there was definite news that the International Shipping Association had organized a large bidding team to participate in the bidding. In addition, nearly 1,000 celebrities in the Gulf region have signed up to bid. After all, plus the group of internationally famous collectors, the conference room of 1,500 people is still a bit crowded. As for the collectors who signed up for the auction later, they can only ask them to bid online.
After putting down the phone, Ou Yiran couldn't help but smile wryly.
Yun Lei saw his strange expression and said curiously: "Why are you smiling?" ”
"Hehe, it's all a good thing done by Ouzhou and Jiangyang, the International Shipping Association and the celebrities in the Gulf region don't forget to dig wells, and they all want to come to repay the favor!"
"What do you mean?" Yun Lei looked at him puzzled.
Ou Yiran carefully explained the content of Sotheby's manager's phone call.
Yun Lei couldn't help but be overjoyed: "This is a good thing, why do you look so sad?" ”
Ou Yiran said helplessly: "In this way, those wrong coins will be far from the actual value, and the bidders attending the meeting will have a clear purpose and will definitely bid wildly." ”
"Hahaha, you are worried about the sky, the money is theirs, how do people like to spend it, what does it matter to you?"
"But, after taking that extra money, don't you feel at ease?" Ou also spread his hands.
"Don't forget, Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang have spent a lot of money to help General Farah establish a new order in the Sorbonne and the Gulf of Aden. And not afraid of hardships and dangers, he defeated the three fleets of the dark side alone, broke the two evil arrays on the dark side that were enemies of the righteous world, and brought the half-human and half-ghost leader of the dark side to justice. Who will benefit the most from all this, of course, the international shipping community and the Gulf region? At this moment, they organized a group to come to bid, and they just returned the money spent by Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang to them in this way. ”
"But they could have done it in a different way, so why do they have to do it through a special auction of wrong coins?"
"The International Chamber of Shipping and the Gulf bidders are simply expressing their sincere gratitude in this way. Someone sends you a lot of money, but it makes you embarrassed, and people who don't know think that people are looking for you to borrow money? ”
"But one yard to one yard, we benefit second, the key is that the wrong currency greatly deviates from the value, which may lead to a blowout of this kind of collection, and the final result will be a lot of people who take over the market."
"Then I can only blame them for having no brains, knowing that this wrong coin auction is here to repay the favor, and they want to buy it at a high price. Who is it that doesn't pit him? ”
But in this case, there are only three real beneficiaries. But we're not. ”
"You mean, Mr. Jin and Qian Kun?"
Ou Yiran said: "Of course, they all have their own wrong coins, and they will make a lot of money because of this auction." The third is Sotheby's, whose commissions will also soar significantly. And we are the initiators of this auction and will bear all the infamy thereafter. ”
Yun Lei nodded and said, "Yes, people are coming for Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang, and they follow the big light, but we have to bear the rights and wrongs behind, which is indeed not a wise move." No, I'll have to talk to them about it. Even Sotheby's, the commission cannot be withdrawn according to the actual transaction price, and they know what to do. I think as long as we bring it up, they will only be afraid that they will not do it. ”
Ou Zhouhe's eyes lit up: "What, in what way can we talk about this matter with Mr. Jin and Qian Kun?" ”
"Call them in, I'll tell them?" Yun Lei immediately decided.
Ou Yiran made two phone calls respectively.
After a while, Ya Liang, Qian Kun, and Mr. Jin came in front and back.
Qian Kun was full of spring breeze, and as soon as he entered the door, he joked: "Mr. Ou, don't you have any good things to share?" ”
Ou Yiran invited them to sit down and told them the content of the call from the manager of Sotheby's.
Qian Kun was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It's really a happy event, it's really good." ”
Seeing that Ou Yiran was worried, Mr. Jin knew that the matter was not as optimistic as Qian Kun imagined, so he asked, "Mr. Ou, you seem to have something on your mind?" ”
Yun Lei didn't wait for Ou Yiran to answer, and asked bluntly: "Mr. Jin, Mr. Qian, do you know why the International Shipping Association and a large number of buyers from the Gulf region came to participate in the auction?" ”
Mr. Jin and Qian Kun glanced at each other and said concisely: "Of course, I came for the dream cruise." ”
Qian Kun said: "It is because Ouzhou and Jiangyang have solved the problem of bandits in the Gulf of Aden, which has changed in the international shipping community. As for the buyers in the Gulf region, it is because Dream Cruises has dismantled the power of the dark side in the Gulf region, allowing the people of the Gulf to have autonomy from now on. ”
Yun Lei said: "You are all understandable people, but in this way, it will greatly push up the price of the wrong coin, far away from its value center, and it is likely to cause a blowout market for the wrong coin." The end result is that we will be infamous for the rest of our lives. ”
Mr. Jin nodded solemnly and said, "I understand that the two major bidding teams participated in the auction at the same time to repay their kindness, and they wanted to repay Ouzhou and Jiangyang for their huge efforts to establish a new order in the Gulf of Aden in this way. Mr. Ou, you can do what you want, I have nothing to refuse. ”
Qian Kun also understood Yun Lei's intentions at this moment, and the spring breeze on his face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a faint disappointment.
Seeing Mr. Jin's statement, he also said: "Yes, people are here to repay the favor, and it is unreasonable for us to touch this light." ”
Ou Yiran breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I'll just say it bluntly, everyone has a psychological expectation for their collections, and if we can meet the expected price, we will be satisfied." He looked at Qian Kun with a focused view, "For example, Mr. Qian's ninety-nine version of the 100 yuan 300 watermark, the expected price is 100 million, and the reference transaction price given by Sotheby's is about 50 million, once the actual transaction price of this coin exceeds 100 million, I hope that the extra part will be handed over to Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang to deal with, after all, this is their influence." ”
Qian Kun said: "This is the best, the best." ”
Ou Yiran said: "The same is true of the wrong coins in our hands, except for the ninety-nine version without a 100 watermark that is expected to be 100 million yuan, as long as the other wrong coins exceed the estimated transaction price of the auction company, the excess will be handed over to Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang for disposal." ”
Mr. Jin continued: "My collection is also, as long as it exceeds the auction company's estimated transaction price, it will be handed over to Ouzhou and Jiangyang. ”
Ou Yiran added: "Moreover, as soon as the auction is over, the three of us must immediately explain this matter to all bidders, so as to avoid triggering a blowout of wrong coins." lest they be scolded by posterity. ”
Mr. Jin and Qian Kun agreed in unison.
Yaliang, who had not spoken, smiled at this moment: "In this way, Sotheby's is embarrassed to charge a commission based on the actual transaction price." ”
Ou Yiran said: "Yes, this matter must also be negotiated with Sotheby's to understand." ”
"Sotheby's should be well aware of the key to this," Mr. Kim said. ”
Qian Kun continued: "Everything should be said to the front, so as not to be difficult to do afterwards." ”
Ou Yiran looked at the time and said: "It's getting late today, let's go to Sotheby's tomorrow morning, this matter is just as Mr. Qian said, it must be determined in advance." ”
"Okay, that's it."
There was nothing to say that night, and the next morning, Ou Yiran went to present their ideas to the manager of Sotheby's according to the plan.
The manager knew the key very well and naturally agreed. At the same time, he spoke highly of Ou Yiran's approach.
On this day, Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang, Shui Jingxin and Ke Feier called their daughters, Yun Lei and a group of female dependents, as well as Vice Principal Shui and Bedar, went to visit Dubai Gate.
Take the sightseeing elevator up to the 150-meter-high beam, walk on the transparent glass floor, and look down from the sky, as if walking in the sky, with a great visual impact.
Shui Mingyue and Yingyue'er, the two little girls, were not afraid at all, holding hands, and ran back and forth on them for two times.
Many of the adults and children among the tourists trembled in the first few steps, as if they were not careful, they would break the glass plate.
