Chapter 670 is just selling stolen goods for robbers!
This was not like the previous two items which were clearly designed as bait to lure Lu Shiyan into a trap, so everyone started taking pictures without restraint.
In the end, the price even soared to 200 million US dollars, and Lu Shiyan was still holding up his hand, competing with a prince from an oil-producing country.
Both of them were well-off, and the card-raising game became a show for them in the end.
"Two hundred and fifty million at a time!"
Only now did the auctioneer feel the excitement of the auction.
"Two hundred and fifty million twice!"
The auctioneer looked at the prince in the white robe, wanting to see if this wealthy prince could offer a higher price.
After waiting for a few seconds and seeing no one else pressing the button to bid, the auctioneer banged his hammer and said, "Two hundred and fifty million dollars three times! Congratulations to Mr. Lu for winning this beautiful, perfect ruby!"
There was originally going to be a dinner after the auction.
But with so much going on at this auction, who would dare to stay?
All of Sir Ackerman's schemes and tricks worked like water, and Lu Shiyan became the biggest winner.
As the two walked out of the auction door, reporters swarmed over them like sharks smelling blood.
Almost all the reporters were foreigners. There were a few reporters with Asian faces, but because they walked a few steps slower, they were left behind by the group.
"Mr. Lu, did you bid for the ruby with the highest price today for the beautiful lady beside you?"
"Mr. Lu, you are willing to bid for the ruby at a sky-high price but are unwilling to bring cultural relics back to the motherland. Do you have anything to say about this?"
"Today, I saw two pieces of art originally belonging to the Flower Country failed to be sold. Do you feel any regret?"
Questions were thrown at me one after another.
These questions are not about Lu Shiyan’s thoughts after the interview about his participation in the auction, but are intended to guide the domestic public to attack Lu Shiyan.
Look.
This is you flower-growing people.
They all say they are doing it for the country, but in the end they would rather spend money on rubies to please women than make any contribution to the country.
Yu Whale couldn't help but want to laugh.
Turning his head, he just happened to see Ackerman and others coming out of the door, and Yu Whale sneered.
When these reporters saw that Lu Shiyan did not respond, they simply directed their criticism at Yu Jingjing.
"Ma'am, do you have anything to say?"
"Ms. Yu, you once spent hundreds of millions on clothes in luxury stores. Why don't you bid for the country today?"
Just as Lu Shiyan was about to get angry, he saw Yu Jingjing reach out and take the microphone closest to him.
No one else noticed that the logo on the microphone was from a news media in the Flower Country.
Yu Whale even turned the microphone to reveal the other party's logo.
"First, our country's Cultural Heritage Administration clearly opposes the idea of 'using the money of the flower-growing country to 'buy back' the flower-growing country's own things'. Please know this!"
The official private contact with Lu Shiyan this time was also a last resort.
Of course, they did not force him, but just hoped that Lu Shiyan would do his best.
Yu Whale can understand this point very well.
"Second, why are cultural relics from the Flower Country so expensive internationally? I think many international sellers know this very well. They have taken advantage of the patriotism of the Flower Country people to push many cultural relics from the Flower Country to unbelievable prices. As Flower Country people, we hope to pursue them through diplomatic and moral appeals!"
Yu Jingjing's voice was not loud, but every word was sonorous. "Third! You said it yourself just now. These are our country's cultural relics. What qualifications do you have to question why we don't take them home? How did these things end up overseas? Do I need to explain? Buying these cultural relics is like helping robbers to sell their property! This is something that no Chinese would be willing to do!"
