v3 Chapter 75: Charity Gala

075. Charity Gala

"Charity party? Who did it?" Tang Wen asked while lying on the sofa listening to Zhou Xu's report.

"Boss, this is a party organized by the old man of the Huo family and Mr. He from Macau. The purpose is to donate a charity sale of Hope Primary School to the mainland."

"Oh, when?"

"At 8 o'clock tonight, at the Hilton Hotel."

"Okay, you can just inform me at night." Tang Wen nodded and didn't say more.

At eight o'clock in the evening, all kinds of luxury cars were already parked in front of the Hilton Hotel. The reporters also got together. Not everyone can come to this dinner.

In addition to the top stars, that is, the rare rich people and members of those big families. For example, the eldest son of the Xu family brought his wife, Li Jiaxin, the first Hong Kong sister in Hong Kong.

Liu Yixiong, who had just been discharged from the hospital, also attended with his wife Gandy and Guo Yi, the eldest lady of the Guo family. The old man of the Zheng family, and the old man of the Li family.

Basically, all the people from the four major families are here, but it is conceivable that Mr. Huo's face is quite big.

After Tang Wen's luxury motorcade arrived, Liu Yixiong walked in with a livid face, and everyone from the four major families, except Guo Yi, chose to go in to avoid losing face.

"Mr. Tang, long time no see." Guo Yi took the initiative to greet him.

"En." Tang Wen, who was wearing a mask, nodded, and then walked directly past her with a bodyguard.

"That's the mysterious man who has been all over the city recently? So young."

"I lost it. All cars are bulletproof."

"Tsk tsk, look at the pomp of others, they are not inferior to the Governor of Hong Kong at all."

After entering the banquet hall, Tang Wen found a corner at random and sat down. MK took JA to the left and the right to protect Tang Wen. Zhou Xu introduced Tang Wen next to him.

"Mr. Tang, welcome to your visit." Just when Tang Wen was bored, an old voice came.

"Mr. Huo has won the prize. I'm just here to join in the fun." Tang Wen recognized the person, and it was Mr. Huo, one of the organizers of the party.

"The future generations are terrifying, we old guys can't do it anymore." Mr. Huo said heartily.

After the two sides exchanged a few words of greetings, Mr. Huo used an excuse to leave. Tang Wen looked at his back and smiled.

"Terrible young man, he does everything without leaking. Third, you have to learn from others in the future. Don't be fooled by the whole thing."

The young man next to him quickly nodded and said yes.

As the successor of the Huo family, Mr. Huo naturally obeys the old man.

"First of all, I would like to thank all the guests for their support to our charity gala," said the auctioneer on the podium.

"Now, please let us have the first auction item tonight. It is a sandalwood Buddha statue donated by Mr. Huo. The starting price is 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the price is increased by 10,000 each time."

"500000"

"520,000"

"I will pay 600,000"

"650,000."

Tang Wen closed his eyes and listened to Zhou Xu's explanation.

"Boss, this Buddha statue is carved from high-quality sandalwood. If you put it indoors, you can not only concentrate and calm your mind, but also have a sleeping effect. The market price is about 1 million."

Tang Wen closed his eyes and raised one hand.

Zhou Xu shouted at the meeting: "5 million."

In an instant, everyone's eyes were drawn to Tang Wen next to Zhou Xu. He joked that the Buddha statue was only 1 million Hong Kong dollars at most. Tang Wen actually asked for 5 million.

"5 million once"

"5 million second time"

"5 million for the third time, congratulations to Mr. Tang, this Buddha statue belongs to you."

Zhou Xu stepped forward and talked to the staff. After a while, he waited for Tang Wen to be auctioned off, and then proceeded to stand by Tang Wen's side.

"Now it's our second auction item, an authentic copy of Qi Baishi, donated by Mr. He from Macau."

"Wow, it turned out to be Qi Baishi's four bottles of flowers and birds? Didn't this one take 92 million shots in the mainland last time?"

"Is this kind of thing sold for charity? It's a waste of money."

"It seems that 92 million was not sold last time. I didn't expect it to be bought by Mr. He."

In the distance, Ni Zheng's eyes lit up, he was determined to win this painting. Zhou Huimin looked at her husband and shook her head helplessly.

"Qi Baishi's four-screen authentic work of flowers and birds, the starting price is 25 million Hong Kong dollars, and the price is increased by 1 million Hong Kong dollars each time."

"26 million"

"28 million"

Ni Zheng sneered and shouted directly: "30 million"

"35 million" did not wait for Ni Zheng to recover before someone surpassed him.

"37 million"

"38 million"

The longer Ni Zheng dragged on in his heart, the more troublesome he was, and he directly shouted: "45 million"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was said that this was a charity sale that did not require commissions, 45 million was not a small number. Ni Zheng just had a broken magazine. How could he have so much money?

Ni Zheng sneered in his heart: "What do you know, this calligraphy and painting will make money if you buy it back within 60 million yuan. If you don't have money, you can ask your stingy father to ask for it. As long as it is a famous calligraphy and painting father, he will still be willing to bleed."

"Azheng, stop shouting, how can we have so much cash for 45 million yuan?" Zhou Huimin worried.

"Don't worry, as long as I buy this painting back, my father will pay for it." Ni Zheng said confidently. He still knows the bottom line about his father Ni Frame.

My father can at least take out tens of millions of dollars in cash, plus a part of his recent cash out, it is enough to buy this painting.

Tang Wen yawned and looked at Ni Zheng's confident bid, and gave Zhou Xu an 8 with a dismissive smile. Zhou Xu nodded knowingly.

"80 million." Zhou Xu's voice suddenly silenced the entire venue.

"Pujia shovel, this kid is playing with me." Ni Zheng cursed with a gloomy face But he didn't have the courage to make a bid, joking with the other party for more money? 10 Ni frames and 10 Ni Zhengs are not a fraction of others.

"80 million once, 80 million twice, 80 million three times, the deal. Congratulations, Mr. Tang."

"Next is a special auction item, the first manuscript of Gu Long's "Meteor Butterfly Sword", with a starting price of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars."

Ni Zheng thought about it, since he couldn't take pictures of Qi Baishi's paintings, it wouldn't be ashamed to buy Gu Long's manuscript and go back. Besides, his father and Gu Long were also "old acquaintances."

So he raised his hand and said "500,000"

Tang Wen smiled contemptuously and made a gesture of 5.

Zhou Xu nodded, then stood up and shouted, "5 million!"

Ni Zheng was short of breath because of Tang Wen's hand, but he didn't have the courage to resist, so he slumped weakly on the chair.

Later, after Tang Wen bought a bunch of jewelry that Guo's family brought for auction for 6 million, he lost the desire to do it. As for Ni Zheng? Tang Wen was simply disliking him.

When going out, Tang Wen met Ni Zheng with Zhou Huimin again, turned his head and sneered at Ni Zheng, "Poor ghost." Then he left with bodyguards and Zhou Xu.

"Azheng, are you alright?" Zhou Huimin asked with concern.

"Go away, don't bother me." After shaking off Zhou Huimin's hand, Ni Zheng drove away alone. Leaving Zhou Huimin alone was embarrassing, so she had to call her best friend and ask her to pick him up.

"What company does Ni Zheng own?" Tang Wen asked Zhou Xu while sitting in a Rolls-Royce.

"It's like a magazine company."

"Break him down." After speaking, Tang Wen closed his eyes and rested.

"Good boss." Zhou Xu immediately called Tang Wen's investment company.
