Chapter 588: War Criminals
"Who were you saying hello to?"
Tang Yuan and the two walked towards the inside of Christie's auction house, Su Xiaoxiao took Tang Yuan's arm and asked with some curiosity.
"The two people who just stood on the edge of the main gate should be CCTV reporters." Tang Yuan responded with a smile: "I saw that they were filming us, so I said hello to them." ”
"How do you know they're CCTV reporters?"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the internal environment of Christie's auction house, and then asked again.
"I've dealt with them before, and I know their clothes."
Tang Yuan responded like this, but his eyes fell to the front not far away, only to see several people walking towards him, among which the middle-aged man was Miguel Reyna, the executive president of Christie's auction house.
"Tang Dong, welcome!"
There were still several meters to go, and Miguel Reina stretched out his hands in advance, laughing heartily and enthusiastically.
"President Miguel, meet again."
"Your bank's autumn auction this year is really lively."
"I see that in the past few days, the media at home and abroad have been reporting on you."
Tang Yuan stretched out his left hand and shook it with the other party, although there was also a smile on his face, it looked a little cold.
"It's a pity that Tang Dong didn't come over two days ago, it's really a pity."
"No, I just heard that Tang Dong was coming, so I rushed over immediately."
I have to say that there is indeed a reason why Miguel Rena can become the CEO of Christie's, and this ability to stick a cold face to a hot ass is not something that ordinary people can do.
Facing the enthusiastic Miguel Reina, Tang Yuan exchanged a few words of greeting with the other party, and then took the initiative to speak: "President Miguel, the auction has begun, let's enter first." ”
"Okay, okay."
"Tang Dong, then we have a chance to talk again."
When Miguel Reina heard this, he immediately personally sent Tang Yuan to the door of the No. 1 auction hall and watched Tang Yuan walk in.
After Tang Yuan walked away, Miguel Reina's assistant looked a little puzzled and asked tentatively: "President, do you seem to be too solemn about this Tang Dong?" ”
Hearing this, Miguel Reina glanced at the assistant beside him, and said slowly: "Do you think that this Tang Dong is just as simple as being rich?" He's more powerful than you might think, and he has a huge influence in Asia, Europe, and North America. ”
"We used that 20th century East Asian photo album as a gimmick to make the other side have a lot of opinions about us, although this matter is unavoidable, but we still have to try our best to make up for the easing of relations between the two sides, at least to maintain the appearance of decency."
"If we really anger the other party and provoke the other party's desperate retaliation, then I am afraid we will be very sad in the next two years."
The assistant looked at Tang Yuan's back, his eyes showed a little shock, he didn't imagine that Tang Yuan had such an amazing identity, and even Christie's, which has a history of more than 200 years, needed to be treated solemnly.
"Gehr, you have to remember ......"
"The essence of our auction industry will always be the service industry."
"No matter what position you are in in the future, you must always maintain a humble heart, otherwise you will not go far in this industry."
Miguel Rena sighed softly, patted the other man on the shoulder, and turned to walk towards the dispatch room of Auction Hall 1.
……
The arrival of Tang Yuan and Su Xiaoxiao, for the No. 1 auction hall, which was enough to accommodate 3,000 people to bid at the same time, it was like two drops of water falling into the sea, without causing the slightest wave.
The VIP seat arranged by Christie's auction house for Tang Yuan was located in the center of the entire auction hall, and when the two of them entered, the auction had already begun.
Today's special auction is called "Centennial Storm", and its theme is the letters of the world's celebrities over the past century, and most of the collections are worth less than one million, and only a few of the collections can be sold for more than one million at the end.
Normally, this theme is relatively niche, and without the 20th Century East Asian Photo Album, this special auction would not have been in Hall 1, let alone in this prime time, and is usually placed in front of important special auctions to warm up.
At this time, the auction is a valuable manuscript by Newton, the father of modern physics, from 1710 to 1720 on the analysis of the leadership structure of the early Christian church, perhaps because most of the guests who came to the auction today were of extraordinary status and financial resources, so that the value of all the items in this auction is generally high.
"Wow......"
"The seats are full, and there are so many people."
After the two sat down, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.
"The vast majority of them came to see the excitement, and the real protagonists today are on both sides."
Tang Yuan pointed to the front left and the front right, and said with a smile towards Su Xiaoxiao.
In the past two days, although he seems to be living in seclusion, he has been collecting information about China and Japan through various channels.
In fact, he didn't say anything just now, today's protagonists are indeed on those two sides, but in addition, he Tang Yuan is also today's protagonist.
That twentieth-century East Asian photo album, he is bound to get it!
"That's Huo Zhenggang?"
Su Xiaoxiao looked in the direction of Tang Yuan's finger, compared to other entrepreneurs, because Huo Zhenggang married the diving queen, he would be brought out by entertainment news and sports news every three or five years all year round, so his popularity and recognition would be higher.
"It's really Huo Zhenggang."
Tang Yuan bowed slightly: "The woman sitting next to Huo Zhenggang is He Yuqiong, one represents the Huo family in Hong Kong City, and the other represents the He family in Aocheng, they are the initiators of this joint auction in the UK. ”
Tang Yuan said this, but his eyes were looking at the Japanese bidding group on the right, among which was a middle-aged man, who was the Japanese that Tang Yuan met at the headquarters of Christie's auction house that day.
After two days of investigation, Tang Yuan already knew the identity of the other party.
Yanagawa Yuliang, the fifth president of the Yanagawa Chamber of Commerce in Japan, the eldest son of the seventh generation of the Yanagawa family, and the future successor of the Yanagawa family, has a lot of influence in Japan's political and business circles, and is the initiator of the Japanese auction group.
Tang Yuan looked at the back of Yanagawa Xiongliang, and his eyes were a little calm, because according to the investigation, it was learned that this Yanagawa Xiongliang's great-grandfather was Yanagawa Heisuke, a war criminal who had committed a heinous bloody crime in Jinling.
Perhaps Tang Yuan's gaze was too cold, which made Liu Chuan Xiongliang faintly feel it, and suddenly looked back at Tang Yuan's side, his gaze staggered through the crowd and Tang Yuan.
Suddenly, time and space seemed to condense at this moment......
