Chapter 167 Self-knowledge
Entering the main entrance of Hanmingxuan, you will see a large sandalwood carved screen that is lifelike.
Just by first glance, even someone who doesn't know much about goods can tell that this carved screen is of great value.
After coming out from the big screen, I came to a spacious hall.
There are various sandalwood tables in the hall, which serve as exhibition stands.
The exhibition stands are filled with various antiques, with introductions to the antiques placed next to them.
Even the walls are covered with various calligraphy and paintings.
In order to better protect the antique calligraphy and paintings, the lighting for each item is different.
When you walk in, you feel like you are in a museum.
I, Shao Yuan, finally understand why those fans say that Han Mingxuan will be a folk history museum.
This is what is visible in the open. Aren’t there more things that are invisible behind the scenes?
With so many antiques, calligraphy and paintings, how much would the entire Han Mingxuan be worth?
This must be more than 100 billion Chinese yuan.
And he owns 30% of Hanmingxuan's shares.
It’s worth at least tens of billions.
This moment made me, Shao Yuan, feel like I had won a jackpot.
The system’s reward this time is very good!
Yu Shan and others who came in with them couldn't help but stare in amazement.
However, they still remember their jobs, but the two female fans behind them are different.
They shouted out loud.
“Oh my god, there are so many antiques here.”
"Yeah, it's just like what they say on the internet, like a museum."
The fans in the live broadcast room also sighed.
"I didn't expect that Hanmingxuan is really a museum."
"There are so many antiques here. I heard that Han Mingxuan has more antiques than the museum. At first I thought it was just an exaggeration. I didn't expect it to be true."
"This is amazing. See that blue and white porcelain bowl over there? It was also at the last auction in Magic City. I heard it fetched over 100 million Han coins."
"Hiss... You're just leaving something worth hundreds of millions of Chinese yuan in the hall like that? Aren't you afraid someone will steal it?"
"Robbery? Is the guy upstairs kidding? See those bodyguards in black uniforms on both sides? They're all retired special forces soldiers. The kind that can take on ten at a time. If you want to die, you can try it."
"Since they dare to show it, they must have the strength to do so."
"I've learned a lot, really a lot. I didn't expect that Han Mingxuan would be like this."
"There are only some photos of Han Mingxuan from outside the internet, not from inside. I never thought that His Majesty could actually livestream from inside. This privilege is unparalleled."
…
Han Mingxuan has a high status in the antique world, but his status in the Handu upper echelons of the family is even higher.
And the privacy is superb.
In the past, even taking photos was not allowed when entering Hanmingxuan.
Now there are people who are blatantly broadcasting live in Hanmingxuan.
And it happened at an occasion like the Hanmingxuan Anniversary Auction.
When hearing the news, many people expressed disbelief.
As a result, the number of people online in Zhen Shao Yuan's live broadcast room has once again seen a leap in growth.
Director Guo was in the director's monitoring room and was so happy when he saw the traffic of Zhen Shao Yuan's live broadcast room.
Sure enough, when it comes to attracting traffic, ten top stars are no match for me, Shao Yuan.
When I, Shao Yuan, entered the lobby of Hanmingxuan, Hanmingxuan's manager Dong Wenbo got the news and quickly rushed out from the back corridor with a group of people.
Dong Wenbo looked to be about 45 years old, dressed in a suit and tie, and looked very smart and capable.
He didn't avoid the camera behind Shao Yuan at all, and acted as if the camera didn't exist.
He walked up to me, Shao Yuan, respectfully and bowed to me, Shao Yuan.
"Mr. Zhen, I'm delighted that you've come to visit Hanmingxuan. I'm Dong Wenbo, the manager of Hanmingxuan."
Dong Wenbo used the word "come".
Those who knew Han Mingxuan's status in the live broadcast room were silent at this time.
"Visit" is a word used by a superior when he goes to the place where a lower person is.
As the manager of Hanmingxuan, Dong Wenbo would definitely not do anything inappropriate.
Therefore, since he used the word "visit", it represents that my identity as Shao Yuan is worthy of these two words.
In fact, Dong Wenbo was also very shocked at this time.
Because he is one of the shareholders of Hanmingxuan.
It's just that his shares are very small.
However, he is also qualified to know about the changes in Hanmingxuan's equity.
The equity change is so big, and it is a 30% equity change.
He didn't get any news.
Without any warning, the major shareholder of Hanmingxuan was replaced.
That’s right, the major shareholder.
Hanmingxuan originally had a total of 12 shareholders.
Now it has shrunk by half.
Because half of the shareholders' shares were transferred to the same person.
The largest shareholder originally held 20% of the shares.
But now, there is one person who directly controls 30% of the shares.
It immediately surpassed the original major shareholder's 10% stake.
The significance behind this silent change in equity is astonishing.
And the person who was able to quietly own so many shares was none other than the recently popular Zhen Shao Yuan.
Before I, Shao Yuan, came, the original major shareholder had already spoken.
As long as I, Shao Yuan, come, Han Mingxuan must meet all his needs.
That's right, everything.
Even if I, Shao Yuan, wanted to burn down Han Mingxuan, they would have no choice but to do it.
What’s a mere live broadcast?
I, Shao Yuan, looked at Dong Wenbo in front of me for a moment, then nodded slightly, "Manager Dong."
Dong Wenbo said respectfully, "Sir, the auction started five minutes ago. Upon learning of your arrival, I have already had the auctioneers suspend the auction. Your private room is also ready. You and your friends can come anytime."
I heard that Dong Wenbo actually suspended the auction for my sake.
I, Shao Yuan, was stunned.
Then he said, "Let's go now. It's not good to keep others waiting too long."
"Okay, Mr. Zhen, this way please."
Dong Wenbo led the way.
At this time, in Han Mingxuan's auction hall, a group of VIPs who were forced to wait were discussing the suspension of the auction.
"What's going on? Why did the auction suddenly stop?"
"Did something happen?"
"I don't know. Let's wait and see."
Some people were curious about the reason why the auction was suspended, but some people's attention was not on that.
Among them was He Jia’s younger brother, He Yiming, who represented the He family to attend the auction.
The day after tomorrow is grandpa’s 80th birthday.
He Yiming took his father's invitation and prepared to go to the auction to see if there was anything suitable to buy as a birthday gift for his grandfather.
Of course, the most important purpose is to come for the finale item at today's auction.
Unexpectedly, he met his mortal enemy, Luo Jun.
It just so happened that Luo Jun was sitting next to He Yiming.
After the auction was temporarily suspended, Luo Jun immediately warned He Yiming.
"He Yiming, I heard that your He family is planning to form an alliance with the Nian family. If you ask me, don't be so delusional. The eldest daughter of the Nian family is not someone you can marry."
He Yiming retorted directly without showing any weakness.
"Whether I marry someone above my station is not up to you, Luo Jun, to decide. It's up to the Nian family."
The He family is a simple family, and there are no conflicts that are common in large families.
Therefore, He Yiming can be considered as one of the rich kids in Handu who lives a relatively easy and comfortable life.
In contrast to the He family, although the Luo family is stronger than the He family, there are too many families and the competition is fierce.
In order to become the heir, each of the younger generation of the Luo family is ruthless.
Even brothers and sisters with the same father and mother will not be shown mercy.
He Yiming and Luo Jun went to the same school for junior high and high school.
When he was in junior high school, he saw Luo Jun bullying a classmate. He Yiming came to his aid and offended Luo Jun.
The two became mortal enemies because of this.
Although the Luo family is more powerful than the He family.
But He Yiming had never been afraid of Luo Jun.
After all, Luo Jun doesn’t have the final say in the Luo family.
Luo Jun is not the most favored one in the Luo family.
He Yiming is different too. He has almost become the heir recognized by the He family.
Therefore, Luo Jun did not dare to act rashly against He Yiming.
After all, the He family is not someone Luo Jun can deal with now.
The two had been at odds to begin with, and recently, the conflict escalated because both families wanted to marry into the Nian family.
There are three big families at the top of the Handu Pyramid.
They are the Wu family, the Dong family and the Nian family.
These three families are large families with a history of more than a hundred years.
The family is full of talented people.
The fields involved are countless.
To other lower-class families, these three families are like giants at the top of a pyramid.
No one can shake it.
Further down, on the second level, are old Handu families like the Luo family, which also have a long history but are beginning to decline.
The third tier consists of emerging young families with strong financial resources, such as the He family.
Old Handu families like the Luo family have always looked down on emerging young families like the He family.
As for the newer families like the He family, they actually looked down on the Luo family, who only knew how to live by the little things left by their ancestors and were not good at adapting.
The conflict between the two sides has always existed.
Not only do He Yiming and Luo Jun have a bad relationship, but the relationship between their families is also bad.
It’s just that they have always had some concerns, so on the surface, both sides will still give each other some face.
However, recently, because the Nian family threw out the golden spoon of marriage, the relationship between these second-tier old families and the third-tier emerging families has become muddy.
The contradiction between the two sides is growing.
The relationship between the younger generations of both families is also extremely tense.
Luo Jun snorted coldly, "A toad wants to eat swan flesh? He Yiming, let me tell you. I've already made a deal with Mr. Jin. The grand prize of today's auction will belong to me. No one else can take it away."
"Mr. Jin?" He Yiming was shocked.
Mr. Jin, Jin Linchi, is the big boss of Han Mingxuan.
I heard that he holds the largest number of shares in Hanmingxuan.
In Hanmingxuan, he almost has the final say.
In the beginning, his father had tried every possible method and every possible connection to establish contact with the Golden Scale Pond, but to no avail.
Because this Golden Scale Pond is really difficult to deal with.
Except for the three major families on the Handu Pyramid, no face was given to others.
Now Luo Jun actually said that he had lost the Golden Scale Pool. How could He Yiming not be surprised?
"That's right." Luo Jun said with a smug look on his face, "So, don't dream on. You can't beat me."
Damn it, He Yiming felt extremely unwilling.
But there is no way.
If Luo Jun really got his hands on the Golden Scale Pool, the finale of the auction would definitely fall into his hands.
He Yiming definitely has no chance.
Seeing He Yiming's depressed look, Luo Jun became even more proud.
"I've already told you that our Luo family is not comparable to you nouveau riche. You should know your place."
At this moment, the door of the auction was pushed open.
