"I don't know which aspect of President Qin's company operates?" A young man wearing a blue tie asked tentatively.
Everyone stopped laughing and didn't speak anymore, obviously they were all waiting for Qin Xiangyang's answer.
"I opened a catering company called CC Catering, and I can't get on the table." Qin Xiangyang pondered for a while, and then said, according to the situation, don't go there without saying anything, it's not good to be too low-key, wait for others to ridicule, then There's no point in slapping your face any more.
"CC Catering, is that the CC milk tea?" Someone responded, and said in surprise: "It turns out that the famous CC milk tea is made by Mr. Qin!"
"Yeah, I really didn't expect that the president who had heard of CC milk tea earlier was young and promising, but I didn't expect to meet a real person today."
Several people cheered and complimented, but Zhang Zibo's expression was slightly weird, but no one noticed.
With the identity of the president of CC Catering, it can be considered as a formal integration into this small group, and through chatting and introducing, Qin Xiangyang also roughly knew the identities of several people.
It's just that when two celebrities were introduced, Qin Xiangyang was a little embarrassed and didn't recognize them. One was the curly-haired woman who was the first to speak out just now, named Liu Yao, and the other was wearing a blue dress with shawl and long hair, named Zhang Zihan.
Even after hearing the name, Qin Xiangyang didn't recognize it, probably some kind of starlet.
What was even more embarrassing was that several young entrepreneurs sent Qin Xiangyang a business card, but he hadn't printed his own business card yet, so he could only lie and claim that he forgot to bring it.
For the rest of the time, Qin Xiangyang mostly didn't speak, just listened to their exchanges, and when the auction was about to start and everyone dispersed, Zhang Zihan still smiled and said, "Please don't embarrass me too much later!"
As he spoke, he blinked his eyes playfully, and several people also smiled and promised.
Only Qin Xiangyang was confused.
Zhang Zibo probably saw Qin Xiangyang's confusion, and on the way back to his seat, he explained: "These little stars usually bring one or two items here, she seems to be... a piece of clothing, right?"
Zhang Zibo hesitated for a moment, then spoke in recollection.
Qin Xiangyang understood instantly, probably because he didn't want his lot to be unsold, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
Zhang Zibo and Qin Xiangyang happened to be sitting together. No wonder he came back and invited him over. When he was seated, he smiled and said, "If Mr. Qin is interested, you can take a picture of it, and we won't snatch it from you."
290. Unspoken rules
Qin Xiangyang was baffled again, he wasn't a fan of this star, what did he buy it for?
Seeing this, Zhang Zibo was surprised, and asked, "This is the first time Mr. Qin came to the auction here?"
"En." It's no big deal, Qin Xiangyang nodded.
"So that's how it is." Zhang Zibo nodded, then lowered his head and said mysteriously: "Actually, there is an unwritten rule here. After you take pictures of the auction items of female stars, you can invite them to dinner, and if it goes well, If so, you can..."
Zhang Zibo blinked at him, showing a look of "you understand".
Qin Xiangyang suddenly realized that this was an overnight fee.
So he smiled and shook his head.
Zhang Zibo didn't care and said, "Sometimes it's quite a bargain. Anyway, it's only tens of thousands of dollars, and it's not bad to sleep with a female star, although it can only be regarded as a third-tier one."
Qin Xiangyang simply echoed a few words.
Immediately afterwards, someone in front went up to speak, probably meaning that all the money from this auction will be donated to the Foundation for Poor Children, and there will be some fairness, etc. Qin Xiangyang didn't listen behind, because he suddenly thought of the proceeds from this auction It is for donation.
As for the donation, it doesn't seem to be counted as consumption, and I don't know if there will be some changes after changing hands in the middle, after all, he also counts as a purchase.
But he didn't think too much about it. Anyway, even if he couldn't earn points and experience, he could just treat it as charity. It's just a small amount of money anyway.
Next, the auction will begin.
"First of all, our first lot is a pair of jade bracelets. We would like to thank Mrs. Hu for her great support. She donated the pair of bracelets. The pair of bracelets are all carved from Hetian jade. The starting price is [-] yuan. Each price increase must not be less than one thousand!"
Immediately, the following began to increase the price, and it was quickly increased to 30. However, Qin Xiangyang was not interested in this, and it seemed that someone else had worn it. If he wanted to give it to a girl, it would be better to buy a new one.
Finally, it was sold at 46.
The second item is a pen, which seems to have been used by some famous person, Qin Xiangyang is also not interested.
The third piece is a calligraphy and painting. It looks good. The author of the calligraphy, Qin Xiangyang, is not familiar with him. He seems to be a calligrapher in modern times. Qin Xiangyang decided to take a picture of it and hang it in his office to add a little culture atmosphere.
"12, is there anyone else to bid for 12?" the auctioneer shouted passionately.
"13." Qin Xiangyang held up the sign.
Ruoyou Ruowu's eyes gathered over, and it seemed that everyone had a different opinion of this man in casual clothes.
"13." A middle-aged man in the back row raised his sign.
"14." Qin Xiangyang followed up with a placard. He felt a little regretful. He should have brought a secretary or other girls over at this time and asked her to help hold the placard. This seemed to be more stylish.
However, this kind of placard bidding is actually a little exciting, and it will be even more exciting if you can compete with more than ten million at once.
"14, this gentleman bid 14, is there anyone else who wants to bid?"
"14 once! 14 twice! 14 sold!" The auctioneer roared crazily, as if he wanted to create a very warm atmosphere: "Thanks to this gentleman for his efforts for public welfare!"
"Boss Qin is really generous!" Zhang Zibo gave Qin Xiangyang a thumbs up.
"I just want to be arty." Qin Xiangyang said with a faint smile.
Gu Wei is actually telling the truth, after all, he doesn't appreciate antique calligraphy and paintings.
Then Zhang Zibo praised him for his modesty, and the next auction came while he was speaking.
"The next one to take is a dress provided by Ms. Zhang Zihan. This dress was worn by her on the red carpet at the last Golden Eagle Awards. It is very commemorative!" the auctioneer said, which also proved that Zhang Zibo's memory is not good. wrong.
At this time Zhang Zihan also stood up and bowed slightly to everyone.
"The starting price for this dress is [-], and each increase must not be less than [-]!"
Qin Xiangyang didn't move. After all, he wasn't interested in an old woman's clothes, and he believed that the three wives wouldn't be interested either, but Xia He seemed to be chasing stars. I don't know if she would like it?
Qin Xiangyang thought about it for a while, and decided to forget it. Anyway, she is only a third-tier star. If she really wants to like it, it is better to invite her favorite star to meet offline.
The scene seemed to be quiet for a while, Zhang Zihan's expression froze for a moment visible to the naked eye, and then he returned to his smiling face.
After a while, after the auctioneer asked repeatedly, Zhang Zibo raised the sign and said, "Twenty thousand."
"This gentleman bid [-] yuan, is there any higher bid! [-] yuan once..."
No one bid again, so Zhang Zibo successfully got the dress and a dinner with [-] yuan, and there may be some special benefits.
"Congratulations!" Qin Xiangyang blinked and said, he felt that there seemed to be something wrong.
"Actually, we all discussed it." Zhang Zibo smiled, and said mysteriously: "No one will snatch this from me."
"Everyone agreed before, just to lie to her." Zhang Zibo turned his head, looked at the dress displayed in front and said.
Qin Xiangyang could hear the slight disdain in his tone.
Qin Xiangyang's thoughts changed, and he probably understood the whole story of the incident. If there were such "hidden rules", older entrepreneurs would not look for starlets so openly because they all had families, so they could photograph There are only these young entrepreneurs.
Zhang Zihan thought that he had squeezed into this group of people, but he didn't know that he was being played like a monkey.
It's really dirty.
Sure enough, actors are all rich people's playthings?
Qin Xiangyang thought of Liu Yunxi inexplicably, and then felt a little unhappy.
"The next lot is a guzheng provided by Ms. Liu Yao and Liu. This guzheng is handmade by Anyunfang. It is very well-made. It is said that there are only a hundred of them in the whole country!"
"The starting price is [-]! Each increase must not be less than [-]!"
Qin Xiangyang rubbed his chin, this time thinking about meeting Xu Qianqian this morning, and then thinking that this Liu Yao seems to be much smarter than the last one.
Apart from fans, the demand for dresses is not that great. Unless she is a big-name star, there will probably be many rich people vying for it, so if there is no such "hidden rule", it is very possible to fail the auction, and Guzheng has a wide audience.
First of all, this limited edition can greatly increase the collection value, even if it is tricked by others, it will not be as embarrassing as before, and there will always be people present who will collect it.
291. Interesting activities
Just like Qin Xiangyang.
Sure enough, there were bids for this guzheng soon. The first bidder was a young entrepreneur who was also in the circle. Qin Xiangyang remembered that he seemed to be running a metal products company.
I just don't know whether he is going for Liu Yao or for Guzheng.
Most likely it is the former.
But soon someone raised the price later.
Qin Xiangyang also raised a sign: "One hundred thousand."
The last bidding price was [-]. Qin Xiangyang's direct increase to [-] naturally attracted some attention, and the auctioneer even shouted excitedly.
"11." A woman in the back row held up a sign.
"12." Qin Xiangyang continued to raise his placard.
……
And when the price reached 20, many people had flinched. After all, although this guzheng is a limited edition and comes from a famous artist, its value is actually around 20.
And when Qin Xiangyang offered 25 yuan, no one followed, and he successfully bought the guzheng.
"President Qin is grand!" Zhang Zibo winked at Qin Xiangyang, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Qin Xiangyang also seemed to see Liu Yao's gaze, but he smiled and shook his head.
To be honest, this actress is not as beautiful as Xu Qianqian, let alone the temperament of the latter.
The guzheng bought by lsp Qin Xiangyang was indeed intended to be given to Xu Qianqian, but the purpose was not strong, and there might be some ulterior motives, but it was just a relatively casual attitude.
After all, 25 yuan is just a small amount of money to him now. It's like seeing a 20 yuan souvenir on the side of the road, just remembering Xu Qianqian, and then buying it as a small gift for her.
Just a whim, no desire for anything.
Besides, he didn't think that giving a guzheng would make the other party recommend himself as a pillow.
After buying another lot, everyone present had a certain understanding of the financial resources of this casually dressed man, and many of them were already inquiring about his identity.
But after all, Qin Xiangyang only paid hundreds of thousands, which is not a big amount to everyone, so even if he pays attention, he just wants to know.
Next, there were all kinds of weird and weird items. The finale was the blue and white porcelain from the Ming Dynasty. The final auction amount was 130 million, which was the highest single item in the entire auction.
Qin Xiangyang was not interested in this porcelain, so he didn't make a move.
After the auction was over, the waiter came over with the POS machine to swipe the card, and brought the lot over by the way.
Qin Xiangyang has been paying attention to his points, and after swiping the card successfully, the points actually increased!
This proves that the purpose of donation can be fulfilled through this form in the future.
Well, giving back to the community.
"Boss Qin, I'll be the host for a while, so why not invite everyone to dinner together?" At the end, Zhang Zibo invited with a smile: "There will be some more interesting entertainment later on."
Probably normal entrepreneurs cannot do without such entertainment, which can easily broaden their contacts, but Qin Xiangyang doesn't like this atmosphere, and he doesn't need it, and he doesn't have much interest in "more interesting entertainment activities", so Declined politely.
Zhang Zibo was very sorry, he seemed to hesitate to speak, but in the end he still didn't speak.
At this time, Liu Yao, who was wearing a formal dress, came over and said with a smile: "I thank President Qin for the reward just now, why don't I treat President Qin to dinner?"
Gu Yu bought her guzheng at a premium of about [-] yuan. Compared with the other person, Liu Yao undoubtedly gained a lot of face, so she was very happy, and Qin Xiangyang's appearance was also good, which made her feel even luckier.
Even if it is upside down, it is not impossible.
Liu Yao thought to herself.
Zhang Zibo looked at this scene with a smile, and felt that Liu Yao was a little anxious, and was about to show an ambiguous expression to Qin Xiangyang, when he heard Qin Xiangyang's tactful rejection.
Zhang Zibo was a little surprised, while Liu Yao's face was a little stiff.
"Miss Liu, we happen to have a dinner together. Mr. Qin may indeed be in a hurry, how about..." Zhang Zibo picked up the plane and started inviting. It would be nice to have an extra actress tonight, one more person, one more way to play.
Qin Xiangyang didn't listen to their conversation, but went outside with the waiter who carried the zither, let them put them in the trunk, and then walked away alone, looking a bit maverick among the social crowd .
All in all, this time the harvest is not big, but it is not a loss to learn a way to earn points.
Next time, you can find some high-end auctions to play.
Qin Xiangyang thought to himself.
After returning home, seeing the shoes at the door, Qin Xiangyang knew that Wen Ya had returned, and there was also a pair of strange lady's sandals, probably Ye Weiwei, probably the two of them were practicing yoga in the room.
When Qin Xiangyang went upstairs, he heard movement in the opposite room, so he opened the door naturally.
There was music playing inside, Wen Ya was lying on a yoga ball, her body was gracefully bent into an arc, just in time to see Qin Xiangyang backwards.
It's just that she didn't have time to say hello, because she was busy adjusting her breathing.
Ye Weiwei, on the other hand, nodded to him and greeted him without any suggestive actions, as if the two of them didn't know each other, which proved that the girl was quite smart.
