The essence activity will be slightly delayed for about a few minutes. Let's take a look at the update first and vote first:)] - Zhou Jing returned to his seat before the auction began.
All proceeds from this charity auction will be donated to this charity organization.
I don't know much about these charities. It seems to be dedicated to helping patients with a certain type of special disease.
After the auction began, a table was quickly pushed up in front of it.
Three people presided over the auction, and the one in the middle was a senior auctioneer specially invited from an auction house.
is a thin man who speaks with a little southern accent, but his voice is very loud.
And interestingly, the other two hosts are in the entertainment industry.
One of them is a famous TV host, and the other is actually Minister Jin's female companion! ...The beautiful woman without underwear... I sighed. Thank God, she is wearing a long group tonight... Because she is standing on such a high table, if the skirt is a little shorter, it will be a lot of fun! There are all kinds of auctions tonight, including all kinds of jewelry, top-name clothing, top cars, and some antiques, calligraphy, paintings, antiques and so on.
In particular, it is pointed out that these things are all donated by some rich people.
The first lot is a vase in the official kiln of the Song Dynasty, and the reserve price is 500,000 yuan.
Interestingly, the lot was finally sold for 1.5 million yuan... And the successful bidder was a middle-aged man sitting on a table in the first row.
After the introduction of Cang Yu, I learned that this is a rich businessman in the north, and the interesting thing is that this vase was actually donated by him.
And he spent 1.5 million yuan to buy the vase back... In fact, it was equivalent to donating 1.5 million yuan by auction.
To be honest, I really can't figure it out... The practice of the rich is really strange... Since it's a donation, it's better to donate 1.5 million directly.
It's so complicated to play. Why do you go around such a big ***? But looking at the guy's proud expression in the admiration of the crowd, I understood a lot.
In fact, for these rich people, this charity auction is just a game. While showing off their wealth, they throw some money out and gain a good reputation.
For example, this gentleman who spent money to buy back his donated goods... Others also praised him for his generosity, boldness, and so on.
Is he really generous? When it comes to real ideas... probably the most popular ideas are, right? This is not my villain's heart to save a gentleman's belly.
Usually, I think that such rich people who can earn tens of millions or even hundreds of millions a year casually throw millions to be "generous"... In comparison, the kind of person who can only earn thousands of yuan a year, but is willing to spend 100 yuan a month to do good deeds... Which one is the real generosity? By comparison, the truth is actually very clear.
An ordinary person may only donate a few hundred yuan, but his total money is probably only a few thousand yuan... And a rich man may be able to donate millions at a time, but this money is less than one thousandth of a thousand for him... Who is more "howful"?? I suddenly felt a little bored.
Tonight's so-called charity party has become a little ridiculous in my heart... It's just a group of rich people who hold a party, show off, and throw some money out of their fingers at the same time to gain a reputation... They drink the most expensive wine, drive the most expensive car, and wear the most. Expensive clothes... This is actually just a farce.
It's a little more unpleasant... If you check the accounts of these rich people... I'm afraid that the number of their usual tax evasion is far more than these "generous" donations!! I was a little distracted, and then the second lot, a calligraphy and painting of the Qing Dynasty was photographed away.
I didn't even look at the price carefully.
The No. 3 auction is the diamond brooch that Fang Nan is looking for.
This is a treasure from the famous European jewelry family, the French Mennick jewelry family, with a reserve price of 200,000 yuan.
When this lot was sent up, I noticed that Fang Nan's expression was obviously shaken, and his eyes showed a little brilliance and a faint desire.
The host casually said something provocative, and the auctioneer in the middle began to bid.
Obviously, this diamond brooch is very popular with some ladies present. At the beginning of the auction, the price quickly rose to 300,000 yuan.
I saw Fang Nan hesitate for a moment, as if he was considering when to bid.
At this moment, a steady voice said, "One million."
The speaker was Zhou Jing. He leaned against the chair, holding a glass in his hand, and smiled.
His voice was not loud, but in this quiet environment, most people in the banquet hall heard it.
The auctioneer on the stage was stunned for a moment, but after all, he was a professional and immediately calmed down.
The two hosts began to make a fuss and exclaimed.
Zhou Jing always had a calm smile on his face.
After his bid, no one really argued with him anymore.
In fact, it's not Zhou Jing who is the richest person here.
The reason is actually very simple: although this brooch is very precious, according to the calculation, its real value is about 400,000 yuan.
Even if it is an auction, if it can be auctioned for 500,000 yuan, there is basically no potential.
Since these rich people know the true value of things, naturally no one will be willing to spend a million to buy something worth only 400,000 yuan.
And the second reason is: after all, tonight is a charity auction. Everyone is not angry. It's just a show. It's just to support this auction. There is no need to fight for the bayonet.
Many rich people who were originally interested in this brooch saw Zhou Jing's offer. Some people knew Zhou Jing, so they didn't compete with him.
And some people, even if they don't know Zhou Jing and see the two beautiful women sitting beside him, they should have guessed that he was bidding for beautiful women.
On this occasion, why sweep the face of beautiful women? In the sound of admiration, Zhou Jing patted this diamond brooch.
Fang Nan sighed, with a trace of disappointment in his eyes.
I know that she regretted not getting this brooch.
And Cang Yu turned his face and looked at me deeply.
The fourth lot is a string of blue diamond necklaces. This time, the competition is relatively fierce. The original value of 150,000 yuan was speculated to nearly 500,000 yuan before it fell.
The person who got the necklace was a young woman from the north, and her origin seemed to be quite mysterious.
Finally, when the fifth auction came on stage, I was refreshed! Thanks to Mr. Herod from Europe for his generous donation! Mr. Herod's generous reputation is famous all over the world. It is really our honor to get the strong support of Mr. Herod at our auction party today!" The head of the charity organization came to the stage and said a few words.
I have to say that the level of the European boat king is several levels higher than that of most of the rich people here.
For charitable organizations, getting the favor of the European boat king is equivalent to establishing contact with the generous boat king from now on. At this time, how can they say more good things? I secretly took a look at Zhou Jing. His face was as usual, and there was still a faint smile on the corners of his mouth.
He did not participate in the first two rounds of bidding. It was not until the price had soared from the reserve price of 1 million to 1.4 million that the number of competitors gradually decreased, and Zhou Jing reached the right price.
"1.6 million."
Obviously, Zhou Jing should be a person who is very good at bidding. He is very experienced.
It has been calculated that the approximate transaction price of this ring will be about 1.6 million.
This is a psychological price! If it exceeds this price, many competitors will choose to retreat rationally.
"One 1.7 million."
The bid was a man sitting on the right side of the first row in a light suit with a very personalized moustache.
While bidding, he turned around and smiled at Zhou Jing's friend.
It seems that the two know each other.
Zhou Jing nodded to him, and then said quietly: " 1.9 million."
The mustache in a light suit shook his head and looked at Zhou Jing again: "Two million."
Zhou Jing looked calm: "Two million two million."
The little beard thought for a moment, turned around and smiled at Zhou Jing, closed his mouth, and chose to give up.
The auctioneer took a deep breath and asked three times in a row at a fast speed. When he was about to drop the hammer in his hand, a soft voice suddenly came from the corner: "Three million."
The whole audience was in an uproar! Three million may not be such a huge number, but spend three million to buy a ring... To be honest, most of the so-called millionaires present have not reached that level.
A trace of haze flashed on Zhou Jing's face, and he frowned slightly. Then he returned to normal and said in a low voice, "Three million yuan."
But the voice in the corner reacted faster this time! Four million."
It's still a soft voice.
And I was stunned! There is no doubt that I am very familiar with this voice! I almost tried my best to resist, so I didn't stand up. I just tried to search in the direction of the speech with my eyes.
Sure enough, I finally saw that at a table in the corner, a slender figure was sitting alone in front of the table, with a slender arm supporting the table, and the other white palm seemed to be playing with his hair bored.
On that beautiful face, with a faint smile... She smiled so simply, but I immediately saw a trace of strangeness in her eyes! Yes, this is her smile! A touching smile, but there is always a trace of wisdom and cunning in his eyes.
Yang Wei! It's actually Yang Wei!! It's really Yang Wei!!! #822; Zhou Jing also saw Yang Wei. There was a strange change in his face. He seemed to be a little surprised and hesitant, but then a trace of resolute flashed in his eyes! Four hundred and one million.
I noticed that Zhou Jing's breathing seemed to be no longer so calm.
Although his face is still calm, only the people sitting next to him can see his slight change! Yang Wei still played with his hair with his fingers, smiled at Zhou Jing, showing his white teeth, and then said lightly, "Five million."
A shocking sigh! I saw that the auctioneer on the stage was sweating, and the two hosts were completely speech-deaded.
Especially the beautiful woman who didn't wear underwear, her eyes radiated a strange brilliance.
Zhou Jing took a deep breath, and the smile on his face was a little reluctant: "Five million."
At this time, I saw Yang Wei curl his lips, then smiled, blinked, raised the glass in front of me and made a toast to Zhou Jing.
Zhou Jing smiled reluctantly, picked up the cup, and signaled to Yang Weiyao.
Then Yang Wei dropped his glass, stood up and made a strange gesture to Zhou Jing, ignored the eyes of everyone in the audience, and turned around and walked towards the door.
"Five million and one million transactions!" The auctioneer almost couldn't wait to hit the hammer hard.
Zhou Jing's face was indifferent, and his eyes were a little cold! I noticed that his fingers pinched the cup so hard that even his knuckles were a little white! I suddenly realized: No! If Zhou Jing started bidding for this ring for Fang Nan... Then now, the situation is obviously not the case! Spending more than five million yuan in one breath for a woman who meets for the first time? Zhou Jing is not so stupid! Even if he is very romantic and willing to spend money for women, he is not so generous! So the reason is Yang Wei! Looking at Zhou Jing's expression, he seemed to be a little helpless, as if he had to continue bidding... It seemed that there was a helplessness... What did Yang Wei's last gesture mean? Fortunately, someone has asked me a question.
Fang Nan opened her mouth. She seemed to be a little curious: "Mr. Zhou, that young lady, do you know her? Is her last gesture to congratulate you on your success in the auction? Zhou Jing's forehead was in a cold sweat and shook his head slowly.
Cang Yu suddenly opened her mouth. Her eyes were a little strange, and she whispered, "Her gesture seems to mean: we are even."
