Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang
Chapter 689: Charity Auction Competition
Li Jiaxin was also in the crowd. She whispered to Zhou Qi, "Is this fan also a precious item?"
Zhou Qi nodded slightly and said with a smile: "You can say that. It may not be considered a rare treasure now, but if the price exceeds 100 million, it will naturally become one."
Li Jiaxin's eyes lit up. She understood what Zhou Qi meant and couldn't help but feel a liking for him.
At this time, Li Jianan noticed the interaction between his sister and Zhou Qi, and couldn't help but come over and ask: "Is this also a rare treasure? Is it the fan itself that is valuable, or the gems inlaid on it?"
"Both!" Li Jiaxin replied.
"Oh my!" Li Jianan couldn't sit still any longer. He wanted to be as famous as Zhou Qi, so he asked, "Let me do it. The things are yours, and I'll just be a figurehead."
"No, you can't participate." Li Jiaxin said firmly. She knew that once her brother joined, it might disrupt Zhou Qi's plan.
Li Jianan felt a little aggrieved and complained, "Little sister, you can't forget your brother just because you have a boyfriend."
"Boyfriend?" The word made Li Jiaxin's face slightly red. She glared at her brother and said, "Even if you have one, I can't let you do whatever you want. You are not allowed to quote an offer. Do you hear me?"
Li Jianan grumbled helplessly, looking very unwilling.
All this did not escape Huo Weiting's eyes, and he sensed that something was fishy.
The host asked at this time: "Mr. Huo Weiting offered 10 million, is there anyone willing to offer a higher price for charity?"
Everyone turned their eyes to Zhou Qi. Even though they didn't know whether the fan was as precious as the hairpin, no one was willing to compete head-on with Huo Weiting.
Zhou Qi is different.
The bidding just now was really full of gunpowder. Zhou Qi felt the gazes of the people around him, smiled slightly, and without letting everyone wait too long, he raised his hand and said easily: "Fifty million!"
"Fifty million!" This number is the highest high price that appeared again after the card was issued.
The host excitedly announced: "Thank you Mr. Zhou for your support of charity." Then asked: "Are there any higher bids?"
The bidding noises gradually died down. Huo Weiting was analyzing the actions of the three people in his mind. Zhou Qi might have set a trap, but Li Jianan looked so sincere...
He had some understanding of Huo Weiting, and the fan displayed on the stage was probably an undervalued treasure. After all, charity auctions were not as strict as formal auctions in identifying the items, and many of them were private collections.
Huo Weiting thought, I've already let you shine once, why not do it again?
He would not agree easily. So Huo Weiting raised his hand and shouted, "One hundred million!"
wow——
Another 100 million appeared! The scene was boiling again.
Huo Weiting raised his lips slightly, enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention. It turned out that this feeling was so refreshing!
"Come on, keep raising the price," Huo Weiting challenged, "Let's see if we can break through 200 million."
Zhou Qi just looked at Huo Weiting calmly and said, "You missed that great value hairpin before, and now you want to spend 100 million to buy a fan?"
"Mr. Huo really has good intentions for charity." Zhou Qi added, as if considering whether to continue to raise the price: "If I raise the price again, wouldn't it be a violation of this goodwill? I choose to withdraw."
Huo Weiting was stunned. Of course he understood what Zhou Qi meant. His expression changed rapidly and he asked angrily, "Are you kidding me?"
Everyone saw his frustrated look. What was supposed to be a charity event turned into a fight.
People shook their heads, thinking that although both were showing off their wealth, the gap between the two was obvious.
"Mr. Huo Weiting offered 100 million... first time... second time... third time, deal."
"Congratulations to Mr. Huo Weiting for winning this lot," the host announced.
The host on the stage did not forget to praise him a few times, but he obviously did not dare to look directly at Huo Weiting's murderous eyes, and could only hurriedly continue hosting. Huo Weiting's face was gloomy, and he must have been very unhappy while writing the check. Li Jiaxin smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth, and her body trembled slightly because of the smile. At this time, Li Jianan suddenly understood the intention of the younger sister - it turned out that she was setting a clever trap for Huo Weiting. With just a few words, Huo Weiting paid a price of hundreds of millions. It was really smart.
However, it was fine to spend money to buy a good reputation, but the problem was that everyone in the audience looked at him with a half-smile, as if they were watching a farce. Li Jianan couldn't help it anymore and laughed loudly: "Oh, I'm dying of laughter!" Huo Weiting threw the signed check heavily on the tray, facing Li Jianan's ridicule, but couldn't say a word.
Tang Jiachen was terrified watching from the side. This was the nth time that Huo Weiting had suffered a loss in such an occasion. He secretly glanced at the huge check and realized that Huo Weiting had saved him. If it was him who was in a stalemate with Zhou Qi just now, the consequences would be unpredictable.
The auction continued, this time it was an antique bronze basin. Zhou Qi took the lead in bidding two million. For a moment, many eyes turned to Huo Weiting, as if expecting him to bid again. Huo Weiting felt the pressure of these eyes, and although he hesitated in his heart, as the son of the Huo family, how could he retreat at this moment? He gritted his teeth and quoted a price of five million.
Zhou Qi responded calmly, "Ten million!" At the same time, he sarcastically said, "Isn't Mr. Huo very rich? Why is he so stingy when it comes to charity?" This sentence was like a thorn that pierced Huo Weiting's heart. In anger, he slammed the table and shouted, "Fifty million!"
"Come on, don't be afraid, let's continue fighting." Huo Weiting challenged Zhou Qi. But Zhou Qi just smiled faintly and turned to look at Huo Weiting: "I remember there were no toilets in ancient rooms, since you like it, I'll give it to you."
Hearing this, Li Jianan burst out laughing: "Hahaha..." This scene was really hilarious.
"I really can't do it anymore...hahaha..."
This seemingly ordinary basin, who knows what its previous owner used it for?
At first, no one thought about it that way.
But when Zhou Qi mentioned it, everyone thought it made sense!
Everyone tried hard to hold back their laughter until they almost burst out.
Huo Weiting was so angry that his face turned blue and his teeth were clenched so tightly that it seemed as if even his teeth were about to break.
According to Zhou Qi,
50 million for an antique that could probably be used as a toilet.
It made him feel like his head was about to explode.
He didn't notice that the host had already announced the deal on stage and was praising him highly.
After all, he just threw out 100 million, and then threw out another 50 million.
How generous!
A female staff member handed the basin to Huo Weiting.
"Mr. Huo, you'd better take this thing away. God knows what's on it. Take it back and enjoy it slowly. Remember to disinfect it first...hahaha..."
