Chapter 48 Necklace
The auction has begun.
I, Shao Yuan, and others were arranged in the middle of the first row.
Even Yu Zhen and Chang Wei benefited from it.
Wang Quanzhi did not leave. Instead, he sat next to Zhen Shaoyuan and enthusiastically introduced the auction items to Zhen Shaoyuan.
Because Liu Qiang's two uncles and nephews almost forced him to go mining, he had to put aside even the most important things he had to do.
Otherwise, if he leaves and something happens to Shao Yuan again, he probably won't even have the chance to mine.
In order to facilitate the live broadcast of Zhen Shao Yuan, Wang Quanzhi also had someone set up a live broadcast stand in front of Zhen Shao Yuan.
The phone's camera was pointed directly at the auction table.
At this time, the host on the stage was giving an opening speech.
"I am very pleased that all of you distinguished guests are able to personally attend our Huosang Hotel's 19th Charity Auction."
"All funds raised from this charity auction will be used for construction and education projects in impoverished mountainous areas of our country. The destination and use of all funds from this auction will also be published on our Huosang Hotel's official website, allowing the public across the country to oversee it."
"Now, I declare that the 19th charity auction of our Huosang Hotel has officially begun."
Soon, the first lot was brought to the stage.
On the big screen behind the stage, a flower-shaped diamond necklace consisting of nine diamonds appeared.
"The first charity auction item is a diamond necklace, 'Hundred Flowers Fairy', provided by our famous actress, Ms. Liu Ying. Let us thank Ms. Liu Ying."
There was warm applause all around.
Sitting in the third row, a woman in a tight white evening gown stood up.
The screen on the stage immediately gave the camera to her.
Many people also looked at her.
She covered her chest slightly and smiled and nodded at the people around her.
I, Shao Yuan, couldn't help but look back at her.
Liu Ying has a beautiful face and a dignified and elegant temperament.
Although she is almost forty years old, she still looks like she is in her twenties and is still as charming and stunning as ever.
If you look carefully, you will find that her eyes are bloodshot and her complexion is not very good.
Liu Ying is a famous actress and film queen of the Han Dynasty. When she was young, she starred in many famous TV series.
Later, she moved to the big screen and became the queen of the film industry.
But no one expected that she would choose to get married at the peak of her career.
She married a famous wealthy man in the country.
When they first got married, they were extremely happy.
They are a well-known model couple in the country.
But recently, news suddenly broke out that the man had cheated on her.
Moreover, the person he cheated with was Liu Ying's good friend in the circle.
Unexpectedly, not long after the news of the man's infidelity came out, someone immediately came out and released some negative information about Liu Ying.
They said that Liu Ying not only acted like a big shot on the set, but also targeted her best friend in secret.
Not only did she say that she stole her best friend's resources, but she also slandered her best friend behind her back.
Later, she even cheated on her best friend's husband. After the affair was exposed, she turned around and framed her best friend and her husband.
Because of this incident, the Weibo server was paralyzed that day.
These things are true and false, and no one knows what the truth is.
But recently there was news that Liu Ying had divorced.
After the divorce, news came out that all the movies and TV series that Liu Ying had signed contracts with had replaced her.
Moreover, many of Liu Ying’s endorsements have also been directly replaced with new spokespersons.
This resulted in Liu Ying's exposure rate dropping by two-thirds.
Some people say that it is because Liu Ying’s ex-husband is suppressing Liu Ying.
This is the power of capital.
In Zhen Shao Yuan’s live broadcast room, there are many fans of Liu Ying.
It can be said that many people grew up watching Liu Ying's TV series.
In fact, more people are willing to believe Liu Ying.
After the applause, the host announced, "The starting price for this Hundred Flowers Enchanting Lady necklace is 500,000. Each bid must be incremented by at least 10,000. Let the bidding begin."
As soon as the host finished speaking, someone started bidding.
"520,000."
"550,000."
"560,000."
Most of the people bidding are women.
This necklace is really beautiful and it suits the aesthetic taste of many people.
I, Shao Yuan, feel that even a man like me is quite moved by this. Not to mention those women.
Suddenly, I heard voices of discussion behind me.
"Isn't that the necklace Liu Ying loves the most?"
"I've seen her scarf before. She bought it when she won the Best Actress award. It's her favorite necklace. I remember buying it for over two million, right? Why would she put it up for auction? And for such a low price."
"Don't you know? Her ex-husband has been suppressing her recently. I heard that her studio is having trouble running. She wants to get the endorsement of Huosang Hotel. How can she do that without showing some sincerity?"
"Liu Ying is so unlucky. Her husband's lovers outside can form a cheerleading team. He's even hooking up with Xia Tiantian."
"That Xia Tiantian wasn't a good person to begin with. I heard that it was because of her that Liu Ying's husband's child was miscarried. Liu Ying discovered it when her husband accompanied her to the prenatal checkup."
“Humph, treating your wife like this, even as a man I look down on Zhao Kangqian.”
The person behind didn't speak loudly, but I, Shao Yuan, basically heard it all.
The people behind are all from the same business circle.
So everyone knows a little about Liu Ying and her husband Zhao Kangqian.
I, Shao Yuan, feel that their words should still be somewhat credible.
At that time, when I, Shao Yuan, saw the negative information about Liu Ying, I didn’t believe it either.
The most important thing is that Liu Ying was my mother Shao Yuan's favorite actor. She would watch any TV series starring Liu Ying.
It can be said that I, Shao Yuan, grew up watching Liu Ying's TV series.
Compared with Liu Ying's ex-husband, I, Shao Yuan, believe in Liu Ying's character more.
In fact, when the incident happened some time ago, most people supported Liu Ying.
Many people support Liu Ying online.
It’s just that the power of capital is not something that ordinary people can resist.
Even if Liu Ying is the best actress and the most popular movie star, she cannot compete with her ex-husband Zhao Kangqian, who is a big shot.
Do you want to be endorsed by Huosang Hotel?
I, Shao Yuan, glanced at Wang Quan beside me.
Then he took another look at the live broadcast room and saw many people shouting "Goddess Liu".
His eyes rolled.
Directly speaking to the fans in the live broadcast room, he said: "This necklace is now Goddess Liu's favorite necklace. Does anyone want it? If so, I can buy it for you. If not, then I will buy it."
Wang Quanzhi, who was standing aside, heard what Zhen Shao Yuan said and looked at Zhen Shao Yuan.
"Mr. Zhen is a fan of Miss Liu?"
Zhen Shao Yuan pretended to be casual and said, "No, but my mother is. My mother likes her very much."
Mother likes it?
Wang Quanzhi seemed to be lost in thought.
When I, Shao Yuan, saw him like this, I knew that things should be done.
Si Yi, who was standing by, suddenly reminded him, "Master, someone in the live broadcast room wants to take a picture of that necklace."
"oh?"
I, Shao Yuan, took a look and found it was true.
A fan named Yin Yang wanted Zhen Shao Yuan to help him buy the necklace. He was willing to bid 1 million.
At this time, the price of the necklace reached 850,000.
This fan named Fluorescent is actually willing to pay 1 million. It seems that he is a loyal fan of Liu Ying.
After all, even the online name has the word "Ying" in it.
I didn’t expect that there would be rich people among my fans.
"Okay, then just bid 1 million, and add 300 yuan as the purchasing fee. I'll buy it for you."
Unexpectedly, the other party directly bid 1.01 million and gave me Shao Yuan 10,000 as a purchasing fee. He also told me Shao Yuan not to think it was too little.
10,000 yuan is equivalent to two months' salary for many people in City B.
If there is money to be made, I, Shao Yuan, will naturally not refuse. He gave Si Yi a look.
Si Yi immediately raised the sign in his hand on behalf of I, Shao Yuan.
"One million."
When the host saw Si Yi's bid, he immediately said, "One million. VIP No. 15 bids one million."
When they heard the number 15, everyone looked in the direction of Zhen Shao Yuan.
Everyone present knew that number 15 was Shao Yuan’s number plate.
As soon as I, Shao Yuan, made a bid, the person who was bidding just now immediately put down the sign in his hand.
Are you kidding? How dare they offend someone who even Wang Quanzhi has to please?
So, as soon as Si Yi called out the price, no one raised the price.
"One million once, one million twice, one million three times. Congratulations to VIP No. 15 for winning Miss Liu Ying's Hundred Flowers Enchanting Diamond Necklace for one million."
“Pah pah pah pah…”
Deafening applause broke out, Si Yi stood up and nodded in thanks on behalf of Shao Yuan.
The fluorescent light in the live broadcast room immediately thanked Zhen Shao Yuan.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you. That necklace is worth over two million. If it weren't for Your Majesty, I wouldn't have been able to buy it for one million."
I, Shao Yuan, said, "You're welcome. I'm just doing my job. If any of you still want me to buy something for you, just tell me."
I have earned 10,000 yuan before completing the task. I, Shao Yuan, am so happy.
Sure enough, his choice to be a purchasing agent was the right one.
Liu Ying was surprised to see Shao Yuan taking a picture of her necklace.
The female agent beside her said to Liu Ying excitedly, "Xiaoying, did you see that it was Mr. Zhen who bought your necklace? He might be a fan of yours. Let's go say hello after the auction is over."
Liu Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Forget it. Maybe he just happened to like that necklace."
If Mr. Zhen was really my fan, he would definitely come to see me before the auction started.
She is in a lot of trouble now, so it is better not to cause trouble.
"Xiaoying, why don't you understand?" the agent said angrily, "You saw how Wang Quanzhi treated Mr. Zhen just now. If only Mr. Zhen had spoken, perhaps your endorsement would have been secured."
The endorsement of Huosang Hotel is of vital importance to Liu Ying now.
As long as she becomes the spokesperson for Huosang Hotel, it means that she is under the protection of Huosang Hotel.
Zhao Kangqian didn't dare to touch Liu Ying again.
"Otherwise, since Mr. Zhen is here, you can go have a meal with him..."
The agent was interrupted by Liu Ying before he could finish his words.
"Sister Hua, don't say any more. I won't do anything that goes against my principles."
Not drinking or eating with others has always been Liu Ying’s principle.
Seeing Liu Ying's firm attitude, the agent Sister Hua stopped trying to persuade her and could only sigh helplessly.
But she felt relieved in her heart. After all, the reason she fell in love with Liu Ying was because she had always adhered to her principles.
The auction continues.
Soon, the second lot came up.
At this time, the number of people online in the live broadcast room reached more than 200,000.
At the auction, items were put on the table one by one. No one asked me, Shao Yuan, to buy them for them anymore.
I, Shao Yuan, chat with the people in the live broadcast room from time to time.
"What am I here to buy? A watch, and then I'll buy anything else I like."
When the third generation Mo Ling watch is auctioned off, I, Shao Yuan, will get a free ticket.
However, this free coupon can only be used to buy one item at the auction.
Therefore, I, Shao Yuan, plan to see which one is good before taking action.
When the people in the live broadcast room heard Zhen Shao Yuan say that he wanted to buy a watch, they immediately asked Zhen Shao Yuan curiously which watch it was.
Because there were several watches being auctioned at the auction.
I, Shao Yuan, had just opened my mouth, but before I could say anything, the door of the auction house was suddenly pushed open.
Someone ignored the staff's attempts to stop him and broke in, interrupting the auction.
The man walked in with two bodyguards in a swagger.
"Haha, Mr. Wang, why don't you send me an invitation to your auction so I can come and support you?"
When Wang Quanzhi saw the person coming, he stood up with a frown.
When the other people present saw the person coming, they all frowned in unison.
When Liu Ying saw the person coming, her face immediately darkened.
