”10 billion?” Huang Yueling's eyes widened, ”are you kidding?”
Zhang Jun said with a smile: ”I'm good friends with the boss of Tianxing auction company. I don't need to pay for the 10 billion yuan.”
The next day, the largest and most luxurious charity auction in history began. The auction, jointly organized by Haina Museum and Tianxing auction company, will eventually have 200 pieces of precious artworks for auction.
The auction was held in the Hong Kong Stadium. Due to a large number of advertisements in the early stage, many people came to participate in the auction. In addition, it is also a charity auction. Participating in it can improve their positive image, and celebrities naturally flock to it.
In the row of seats at the back of the gymnasium, Zhang Jun and the three girls sat there. The three girls were nervous. Zhu binglan said, ”brother Fu Gui, if you take a picture of 10 billion things and your friends insist on you to pay, you are not miserable?”
Zhang Jun blinked and said, ”behind you are the three great families of Yundong. Those who have money can borrow some from me.”
The three women looked at each other with a bitter smile, and Zhu binglan said, ”you think it's a million! That's 10 billion yuan. The working capital of Wen family doesn't have 10 billion yuan. Where can I borrow it? ”
Zhang Jun laughed and said, ”don't worry, it will be OK.”
There are more and more people in the stadium. They are either rich or expensive and sit in their respective seats in an orderly manner. Before long, a popular TV host stepped onto the platform and announced: ”welcome to participate in this charity auction, which is jointly organized by Haina Museum and Tianxing international auction company. All the money from this auction will be remitted to Tianxing Charity Fund for promoting charity! Now let's welcome Ms. Guo LAN, President of Haina Museum, to speak! ”
Guo LAN, dressed in a white cheongsam, is as elegant as a white lotus flower. Standing in front of the public, she smiles and says, ”ladies and gentlemen. On behalf of the Heiner Museum, I would like to thank you for your warm participation. It is because of people like you that charity can develop. ”
”Today, the Haina museum will entrust the Tianhang auction company to auction 200 precious artworks. Most of these works of art are donated by the patrons of Hainer museum to support charity. Here, I want to thank those generous good people! ”
Next, several Hong Kong officials and several guest representatives also made speeches, and then the auction officially began.
The host announced the first auction.
The staff lifted out a square table covered with a red cloth.
”Ladies and gentlemen! The first work of art sold in this auction is about to appear. It is a jade seal used by the emperors of song, yuan, Ming, Qing and four dynasties. There are 24 in total! ”
When the staff uncovered the red cloth, they saw 24 jade seals of different sizes and carving techniques displayed on the square table. In the audience, many people stood up in shock, staring at the jade seal.
”My God! Haina museum is a big hand. Every one of these seals is priceless. They even took out 24 of them
”It's magnificent to put the seals of four dynasties together. But they are so precious that few people dare to do it. ”
”This kind of treasure can be met but can't be asked for. No matter how high the price is, it's worth it. Unfortunately, I have limited funds. Otherwise, I will definitely collect them all. ”
Most of the participants thought that the auction would not be a charity auction. Who knows the reality is so shocking that the first auction is a big one.
The host did not wait for the shock of the crowd to disappear, and then continued: ”this set of jade seal offers 3.8 billion Hong Kong dollars! No less than HK $100 million will be added each time! ”
As soon as the voice dropped, someone immediately raised a card: ”I'll give 3.8 billion yuan!”
”3.9 billion!”
The fierce bidding began. The rich people knew that the 24 pieces of jade seals were not only worth 3.8 billion yuan, but they made money when they bought them.
The auction meeting entered a climax at the beginning, which caught many people off guard and regretted that they had not studied the auction in advance and could not make a good bidding arrangement.
”I'll give five billion!”
All of a sudden, a stiff voice sounded, and the offer was actually a middle-aged Japanese man. When he saw this man, Zhang Jun recognized him as a Japanese collector, and came to join in the fun.
At the beginning, Professor Guo cooperated with this man, and he spoke highly of him. He thought he was a real Confucian businessman and a man with internationalism spirit. He is an avid antiques collector and a successful businessman with assets of more than $50 billion, and is one of the core members of Mitsui family.
Mitsui family is a big chaebol in Japan, with a huge asset of nearly 400 billion US dollars and employing 240000 employees worldwide. Mitsui's ability to become a core member of this tycoon shows that he has an extraordinary position and ability.
The price of 5 billion yuan exceeded everyone's psychological expectation, and the scene suddenly became quiet and no one competed.
”Five billion once!” the auctioneer announced
