Chapter 1644: goodbye manuscript

---------..

Today's second update, please recommend, please subscribe!

During the buffet time, in fact, most of the time everyone is chatting. Although it is much better than Oscar night, everyone is really eating, but this kind of charity gathering is rare, and there are a lot of things to greet each other We can chat, so there is not so much time for meals.

After an hour, Evan Bell only felt full after eating a fifth, just to keep his stomach from being empty, and it was not the end of the meal at all. However, the harvest is not small. Evan Bell and Bill Gates chatted for a while, and it seemed amazing to imagine that he had a conversation with the richest man in the world. It was in the novel in the past life, but now it has come true. ; In addition, Evan Bell also chatted calmly with many social reporters for a while, talked about Evan Bell's stance on anti-war, and talked about Evan Bell's views on next year's presidential election. Very happy to talk.

Soon, the auction will begin. In the so-called auction, the auctioned items are not important. The guests are willing to bid to show their support. This is the most important thing. The final auction income will be donated to the Natural Resources Defense Council and the American Global Green Organization. "The word comes.

However, there are quite a few big guys present today, and the items in the auction are also very good, and the atmosphere at the scene is very lively.

There are also many treasures in the items contributed today, and I even saw antiques, which surprised Evan Bell. This is completely different from participating in the school's charity auction back then. All of them are celebrities, and they are lavish. And they are also full of support for charities, so the whole auction is full of excitement.

Evan Bell also auctioned off a hat, courtesy of Charles Dolan. The cable tycoon, who is apparently also a collector, offered the hat from the British Prime Minister Anthony Eden himself. This kind of hat is also Evan Bell's favorite. It was originally called the Homburg felt hat, but because Anthony Aiden likes it very much, it is also called "Anthony Aiden hat", and later because it appeared in "The Godfather" , fame. Today, Charles Dolan actually provided a Holmburg felt hat worn by Anthony Eden himself, and Evan Bell is naturally very happy.

In the end, Evan Bell paid half a million dollars to auction it. The price is not high but it is not low, but for charity, the price is the second, and the heart is the most important.

Since Evan Bell didn't know that today's scene would be so grand, he did not come with the auction item, but to his surprise, an item related to him appeared at the auction. The auctioneer is an unfamiliar face. Leonardo DiCaprio, who was sitting next to him, explained that this is a socialite in the Upper East Side of New York, whose reputation he usually hangs outside is for real estate; and the auction items are actually "just a dream... The original manuscript. This really surprised Evan Bell.

Evan Bell, the original manuscript of "Just a Dream", took it out for charity a long time ago when he participated in a charity auction at the University of California, Los Angeles. That charity auction was organized by Blake Lively and was also the occasion where Evan Bell and Leonardo DiCaprio officially met.

At that auction, Evan Bell left early. He didn't even know how much the manuscript of "Just a Dream" was auctioned. He just heard about it a few years ago. It seems that this manuscript was fired for a high price. .

In fact, although computers have appeared in every corner of people's lives now, Evan Bell has a hopeless nostalgia for writing by hand. For example, the cover of each single is hand-painted, such as Saying that he records every creation with a pencil, this habit has been ingrained in Evan Bell's blood.

Therefore, when it comes to original manuscripts, Evan Bell does have a huge storage capacity. It is estimated that it is everywhere in his home and studio, but these manuscripts, the only thing that is circulating are the creation manuscripts of "just a dream"! Of course, Melancholy still has three manuscripts written by Evan Bell in his green years, but Evan Bell does not know whose hands it is, but it is estimated to be Gillen Haas.

Evan Bell is now the person at the top of the entertainment pyramid, if not the first person, it is not far away, it is estimated that what is lacking is the affirmation that makes him truly ascend to the throne. Therefore, the creative manuscripts of "Just a Dream" are very collectible, especially for those music lovers, even if Evan Bell's manuscripts cannot be compared with masters such as Beethoven, Bach and Mozart, but after many years , Maybe this manuscript can be like the unpublished songs or manuscripts of the Beatles and Michael Jackson, and it has the value of archaeological collection.

I don't know if it is the enthusiasm of the people for charity, or the title of "Evan Bell's Manuscripts" is indeed attractive. The auction price is soaring, which really surprised Evan Bell. Leonardo DiCaprio shouted once at one million and two million, causing Evan Bell to laugh and cry.

One creative manuscript equals two million? This is so stupid. Evan Bell thinks it's a bit ridiculous. "Leo, I'm still alive, okay?"

Evan Bell rolled his eyes at Leonardo DiCaprio. The subtext is that when these so-called creative manuscripts are truly valuable, it will be after he has left this world for a hundred years, so the price is driven up It's kind of weird to be so high. You know, even the Anthony Aiden hat just now is only half a million dollars. The price of this manuscript is really incredible.

Leonardo DiCaprio smiled at Evan Bell's complaint and shrugged, "Haven't you heard a word called 'collectible value'?"

The so-called collection value, in fact, is the appreciation space of items. For example, when Vincent van Gogh was alive, his paintings were worthless, but after his death, a pair of "sunflowers" was auctioned in 1987 for 3,950 Thousands of sky-high prices. Three years later, "Dr. Gachet Statue" made another $82.5 million, setting the world's highest-selling artwork record. It wasn't until 2004 that Picasso's "Boy with a Pipe" was That record was broken with an auction price of $104.16 million.

Therefore, in the collection world, no one can tell such a mysterious thing, and Evan Bell does not know anything about it. Evan Bell simply ignored Leonardo DiCaprio's ridicule, twitched the corners of his mouth, and refocused on the auction.

In the end, the creative manuscript of "Just a Dream" was sold for $3 million, and the buyer was still an "acquaintance": Bill Gates.

In this regard, Evan Bell's only explanation is, "Gates is really giving everything to charity..." Three million dollars, thinking about this price, Evan Bell felt the corners of his mouth twitch, not to mention this How much is the creation of the manuscript worth, but I am still alive, and it is really strange to see my work being auctioned for a high price.

After the auction was over, Evan Bell also stepped forward to express his thanks to Bill Gates, "You are flattering me. If Eleven Studios goes down in the future, I don't have to worry about it. I should have some in my family. enough stock."

Bill Gates laughed at Evan Bell's little humor, "Numbers are never important on this occasion, are they?" Indeed, for Bill Gates, the so-called Three million should be a series of numbers.

Evan Bell couldn't help thinking that when he bought Anthony Aiden's hat for half a million, he thought for a while, "Oh, half a million", after making sure it wasn't five million or fifty thousand , which was filmed. Sure enough, the little assets of Studio Eleven are still insignificant in front of a real tycoon.

"I think Leo will be very happy to hear what you said." Evan Bell said with a smile, today's auction was indeed very successful, although Evan Bell did not calculate in detail, but by participating in the entire auction , he estimated that the funds raised today should go up to 20 million. "Are you sure you don't want to buy a few more manuscripts? I'm more than willing to give up."

Evan Bell's joke successfully made Bill Gates laugh, "Dear Evan, if you're willing to offer it again at the next charity gathering."

The auction ended in a lot of excitement, and the reporters' reports were definitely not lacking in highlights. For example, Evan Bell's live performance of "Firefly... For example, the manuscript of "Just a Dream" was auctioned for a very good price. Another example is Leonardo DiCaprio's upcoming "Eleventh Hour"...

After returning to No. 10 Princes Street, Evan Bell received a package from Steve Jobs. Sure enough, it was ne. Steve Jobs sent ten smartphones in one breath. Thoughtful, enough for Evan Bell to distribute to relatives and friends around him.

Evan Bell looked at the ten NEs neatly placed in front of him. Although they were daily necessities in the past life, a sense of intimacy still came over him, and he couldn't help but sigh that he could finally enter the era of smartphones.

The knock on the door interrupted Evan Bell's unpacking. He didn't look back and said, "Please come in."

"Hey, Evan, are you busy?" It was a girl's voice. The sound quality sounded very textured, and there was a clear accent in the accent. Evan Bell didn't have to look back at all. He knew it was Adele. Al Adkins.

Ask for a monthly pass. RQ

,Please.
