Xu Taiping's bid caused the entire venue to fall silent.

Many people suspected that their ears were playing tricks on them.

Five million? They already offered twelve million, but you offered five million? What did that mean?

Was he shouting for fun?

"Sir, I'm sorry, but you might not have heard what I just said. Our foreign friend has already bid 12 million." The host pointed at Martin and said.

Martin looked at Xu Taiping and let out a contemptuous smile.

"Five million, and I'll give Xu Taiping some face." Xu Taiping sat in his own seat, crossed his legs and said lightly.

He was the Imperial Auction Officer of the Qiushi Auction House and had come from a foreign land, so he did not know who Xu Taiping was. Yet, Xu Taiping had said that his face was worth at least seven million yuan.

However, what surprised the host was that he thought that everyone present would laugh at Xu Taiping's overestimation of himself, but he didn't expect that while Xu Taiping was sitting there, everyone was looking at him and not a single one of them was laughing.

Everyone looked at Xu Taiping with serious faces, silent.

"Mr Xu, you are a noble. I know that your face is valuable, but, this is an auction. The auction is about rules and regulations, and the highest bidder gets it." The host said.

"Are you saying that my face isn't worth seven million?" Xu Taiping asked with a smile that was not a smile.

The host decisively shut his mouth. He could already faintly feel that something was amiss.

"Can any of you tell him that my face is worth seven million?" Xu Taiping looked around and asked.

"Boss Xu, you must be joking! Your face, let alone seven million, is worth seventy million!" A person sitting in the front row quickly said.

Xu Taiping looked at the man, smiled, and said, "I'll remember you. Li Kaiping, investment and growth."

The person who spoke was wild with joy as he hurriedly said, "It's my honor to be able to make Boss Xu remember me, haha."

"Ridiculous!" Martin stood up coldly and said, "I've been everywhere in the world, but I've never seen such a shameless person. It's not shameful to not have money, but what's shameful is that you want to force yourself to take something without money. What are you doing? This is a robbery! "

"He's in China, damn it." Xu Taiping sneered, "It's not the whole world you're talking about. There's a rule here, why don't you just sit down."

Seeing Xu Taiping's cold smile, Martin was a little scared, but thinking about how there were so many people here, Xu Taiping definitely wouldn't dare to mess around with him, so he still dared to say, "Could China be a place that doesn't follow the rules?"

"This is Jiang Yuan City. There are rules here, and I have the final say in the rules here." Xu Taiping said in a domineering tone, "I want to see, I bid 5 million, who dares to give you that film."

"Director Xu, calm down, calm down!" A person wearing a suit and tie walked to the center of the stage, taking the microphone from the host, "Boss Xu, we didn't know that you like this film, it's all our fault. We temporarily don't sell this film today, if there's anything that needs to be done, let's talk backstage slowly.

"What's not for sale?" I've paid for it, and you're not selling it? "Do you think I, Xu Taiping, am easy to play with?" Xu Taiping asked.

"This..." The Qiusi Auction had a powerful background, but the capital was too far away, and since they were in Jiangyuan City, he didn't know how to face Xu Taiping.

"Besides, who said that laozi didn't pay enough?" Xu Taiping smiled mockingly and said, "I'll pay five million, a dollar. That Martin guy, do you even know how to settle accounts? "

"US Dollars?" Everyone present was stunned. According to the exchange rate of the US dollar to the RMB, one dollar was now equivalent to five RMB, which meant five million RMB. That was 25 million RMB! This was more than double the previous twelve million!

"It's a guest from afar, Mr. Martin. Since you're from Hollywood, what's the point of bidding in dollars and using RMB?" Xu Taiping said.

"Boss Xu, you really like to joke around. You've scared us all quite a bit. Five million US dollars is definitely something you can afford!" The person on the stage said.

"It's just a joke to liven up the mood, haha!" At the same time, the entire venue resounded with laughter. Earlier, some people thought that Xu Taiping was too overbearing, but now that they knew that Xu Taiping had bid five million dollars, these people felt that besides being overbearing, he was actually somewhat adorable. This was truly rare.

"Five million dollars, can you take it out?" Martin asked.

I said I bid 5 million USD, are you playing with me or not? If you have the ability, go ahead and shout, don't be like a woman, what's 10 million or 2 million, I'm not sparing anything to shout! I want to see if you can play or I can play today. Who the hell can't? Xu Taiping said loudly.

Martin was almost going crazy from Xu Taiping's teasing, so he didn't pay much attention to what Xu Taiping said. He gritted his teeth as he looked at Xu Taiping and said, "You offered 5 million, do you think I'm afraid of you? I'll pay ten million dollars! I must be your father today! "

He had to admit that this international director was quite wealthy. He had already offered ten million dollars.

"Alright, this international friend of ours bids 10 million, is there any higher bid?" The man in a suit and suit on the stage shouted excitedly.

"Thank you, Director Martin, for your generosity towards our country's film industry. Thank you, I won't fight for it!" Xu Taiping clasped his fists, and then sat down on his seat.

Martin and the rest of the people in the hall were stunned. Xu Taiping was so arrogant, but he didn't want anything like that?

"Hahaha!" Guo Yunpeng couldn't help but laugh out loud, then he followed Xu Taiping and said, "Thank you, Director Martin, for contributing so much to our country's film industry!"

With Guo Yunpeng's smile, everyone in the hall came back to their senses. It seemed like this Xu Taiping had intentionally set up a trap for Martin to spend more money on.

Many people could not help but laugh when they thought about how the money was taken from the foreigners and then used to make movies in the country.

In an instant, the entire hall was filled with bursts of laughter.

"Ten million US Dollars going thrice, deal! Congratulations to our international friend for taking the first volume of Mr. Zhang's film. Thank you for contributing to the development of our film industry. " The host passionately shouted into the microphone.

There was a round of applause for Martin's internationalism.

"Wait a minute!" Martin raised his hand and suddenly shouted.

"What's the matter, sir?" the host asked.

"I've spent this 10 million. I was willing because I won. Who said just now that they would call me daddy if they couldn't play anymore?" Martin asked as he looked at Xu Taiping coldly.

Everyone looked at Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping's move was indeed a relief, after all he had brought ten million US dollars into the country, but the consequences were also a bit serious. Xu Taiping was such a big brother of the martial arts world, if he were to call him father, then he would be utterly disgraced. Not to mention in Jiangyuan city, he would not even have a place in Huaxia.

"I will definitely do what I say!" Xu Taiping stood up, with his head held high and his chest puffed out, he looked at Martin and said, "Son, you did a good job."

"You despicable scumbag, who are you calling your son? Do you know who you're calling my dad? Are you trying to be shameless? " Martin roared in anger.

"What? I said before, whoever can't play is the dad. I can't play anymore. Am I not the dad?" Xu Taiping said in a wronged tone.

"That's not what you said at all. You're talking about who can't play anymore and who wants to call his father!" Martin shouted.

"That host, you should have the entire recording process here, right?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Yes." The host nodded.

"Come, replay the video and project it onto the big screen behind you." Xu Taiping said.

"Okay, okay!" The host nodded his head and then quickly went to look for skill.

Not long after, the scene of Xu Taiping and Martin choking each other appeared on the big screen.

On the big screen, Xu Taiping and Martin looked at each other.

I said I bid 5 million USD, are you playing with me or not? If you have the ability, go ahead and shout, don't be like a woman, what's 10 million or 2 million, I'm not sparing anything to shout! I want to see if you can play or I can play today. Who the hell can't? Xu Taiping shouted.

Xu Taiping's words were amplified and then spread through the loudspeaker.

"Repeat the last line." Xu Taiping said.

"Who the f * ck can't afford it? Who the f * ck is father?"

"Who the f * ck can't afford it? Who the f * ck is father?"

This phrase was repeated nonstop throughout the entire venue.

"F * ck!"

"He actually said that?!" Shouts of surprise rose up from the crowd. It was also at this moment that everyone realized that Xu Taiping had actually dug a pit while he was speaking.

"See that?" Xu Taiping spread it out and said, "Who can't play who is the father, I can't play, am I not the father? "Come on, son, just scream."

"You!" Martin pointed at Xu Taiping, and the thought that he would have to spend another ten million dollars later made him feel dizzy.

Puff!

Martin spat out a mouthful of blood and sat down on the ground.

Martin's companions and the people from the auction rushed over and sent Martin to the hospital.

"Remember to give me enough money! Ten million dollars!" Xu Taiping did not forget to shout before Martin left.

Martin, who was close to fainting, shivered and finally fainted.
