Chapter 1152 Meeting the Prince by Chance

Luxurious cars gathered outside the Dawei De auction. In places like the auction, apart from wealthy businessmen and local tycoons, the most indispensable ones are celebrities, socialites and people who want to make a name for themselves.

In short, the entire auction entrance was as lively as if celebrities were walking on the red carpet. After all, antiques also need publicity, and a good publicity can double the value of antiques.

Of course, those with special identities who do not want to appear in the news and photos will naturally have special channels for them to enter the auction house, and they will not get together with these people.

Afterwards, I didn’t want to report the success of the auction, but I would just say that a certain wealthy businessman had bought an antique at the auction. In short, the antique has been bought and does not belong to the auction house, so naturally it will not help the buyer with promotion and packaging.

But there must be something to say about the price of antiques. This is about showing the strength of your own auction house. The last news has been reported by Daweide Auction House. How much was the auction volume this time? That antique is the most expensive, with an overall transaction price of several hundred million. It can attract the attention of many people in an instant and add a lot of fame to the auction house.

But those who like to walk on the red carpet want to meet and flatter the most are those who walk through special channels. The world is so wonderful.

"Why are they together?" Li Changze frowned.

He was not surprised to see Yang Dongxu, after all, Bao Xingyu was sitting next to him. But he was a little surprised to see Yang Dongxu sitting in the front row, chatting and laughing with a few foreigners.

Because when those foreigners came in just now, the person in charge of Daweide Auction House personally came out to greet them. He behaved very respectfully, obviously this was an important guest of their auction house.

And if you can become an important customer of the world's top auction house, if you don't lose hundreds of millions a year in the auction house, people probably won't look at you seriously.

"It seems to be a rich man from Russia." Bao Xingyu looked at Yang Dongxu for a while and said.

"Northern Russia?" Li Changze was stunned for a moment.

"The thin man on his left is Abramovich, the current owner of Chelsea Football Club. The person who bought Chelsea has spent nearly 300 million pounds on this team since last year.

He also announced that he will introduce superstars to the team this year and has prepared 100 million pounds in cash. Some time ago, almost all British media and newspapers were reporting on him. "Bao Xingyu studied in the UK and has been in London during this period, so he obviously knows more.

"Where are the two next to them?" Li Changze couldn't help but ask.

The person in charge of the auction was not only polite to Abramovich, but also seemed to be polite to several others. Obviously the identities of those few are not simple.

"I don't know. I haven't seen it. I haven't seen it in the newspaper either." Bao Xingyu looked at Yang Dongxu carefully and shook his head.

Neither Toi nor Andrei is obviously someone who likes to appear in the media, let alone Rybonov. It seems that he is only planning to invest in the UK this year, so naturally no one knows about it.

Just as the two people were guessing who the people around Yang Dongxu were, another group of people walked in, or to be precise, they walked down from the VIP box above.

This incident was undoubtedly an accident. The person in charge of the auction who was talking to Andre and several others quickly apologized to Andre and then moved on to another group of people.

Because the visitors were none other than Prince William and Dai Er. Unlike some big figures in China who need to keep a low profile, many celebrities abroad are actually quite exposed.

In particular, it is common for the British royal family to be in the newspapers, so it is not unusual to attend the auction house. There are VIP boxes exclusively for the royal family in many places, such as the auction house at this time, such as the Jockey Club, and the football stadium.

So it is not uncommon for people from the royal family to come to auctions, and even occasionally they will buy some things. The market will also donate some items for auction in some charity auctions.

However, they usually stay in the royal box, and their social interactions are limited to those in the VIP box above. Therefore, the boxes near the royal family's special box can always sell for high prices, especially when it is confirmed that someone from the royal family will attend an auction or a certain game.

"I seem to be here for you. We'll wait for you over there." Tuoyi patted Yang Dongxu on the shoulder and gave him a slightly ambiguous look.

Then he sat down in the front seat with Andrei and Rybonov, without any intention of further contact with Prince William.

Many people want to have a relationship with the royal family, but some people stay away from the royal family and some political dignitaries. Toy and Andre are certainly such people.

Their identity has been determined from the beginning, and they have large assets in their hands. No need to be close to the royal family to become a wealthy person.

On the contrary, having some previous relationships with the royal family and dignitaries will bring more trouble to oneself. Therefore, there is a tacit understanding between the two parties that they will not interfere with each other.

Rybonov's departure was also a taboo, so in the end, Yang Dongxu was left with the tycoon Abramovich.

In fact, Troy also had a VIP box during the auction, otherwise the person in charge of the auction would not have come to say hello in person just now. But Abramovich, a guy who likes to show off his personality and likes to do things his own way, feels that sitting in the front row of the auction is more enjoyable and he can further observe the shareholders of his auction.

So the group sat in the front row of the auction. Compared to Andrei and Toy who didn't want to get too close to the royal family. Rebonov needed to be cautious, but he obviously had no such taboos.

He had spent hundreds of millions of pounds on Chelsea. Not to mention meeting Prince William, he had no need to be cautious when meeting the Queen. This was a rich man with a very distinct and self-centered personality.

"My cousin William, this is my friend Yang Dongxu. We saw you in the upper box just now, so we came down to say hello." Dale looked at Yang Dongxu and said with a smile.

In fact, it was not just William and Dale who came, but also several other people, who seemed to be friends of the two. However, Dale didn't mean to introduce them. Although the other party looked at him curiously, there was not much expression on his face.

"Hello, Prince William. I am Yang Dongxu from China, and this is my friend Abramovich." Yang Dongxu smiled and stretched out his hand, and introduced Abramovich next to him.

"I have a long history with Mr. Abramovich, and I have watched a game with Roman before." William smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Yang Dongxu.

Then he shook hands with Abramovich and said hello. Then he looked at Yang Dongxu meaningfully.

Dale didn't introduce Abramovich because she knew that he knew Roman. But Yang Dongxu didn't know this and took the initiative to introduce Roman. Obviously, he was just doing it for Toy's sake. If he met a noble person, he would just help Abramovich get to know more people in the UK.

Even if there might not be any cooperation between him and Roman in the end, Roman's knowing a prince from the royal family would obviously be beneficial to his development in the UK.

And many people would be cautious when getting to know the royal family, fearing mistakes and trying to reduce trouble. They were afraid that unexpected events would have a bad impact on the process of getting to know the royal family. And Yang Dongxu's performance of helping his friend invisibly undoubtedly made William appreciate it.

Even Abramovich, who claimed to kill Yang Dongxu's Barcelona team yesterday and finally topped the European giants, had a much softer expression on his face when he looked at him at this time.

Compared with Toy, and even compared with Andre, he and Yang Dongxu had only met a few times. Perhaps if it weren't for the football team, he wouldn't have appeared in Toy's manor yesterday. He didn't expect that the oriental man in front of him would be so loyal.

Yang Dongxu didn't know that he unconsciously just felt that Roman knew William and could be beneficial to him. He actually gained the favor of the two people.

In fact, this is very normal. After all, whether it is William or Roman. They are always surrounded by a group of utilitarian people who carefully plan to approach the two people. If they succeed, they will gain a lot of benefits.

It is impossible to gain the friendship of the two people. On the contrary, Yang Dongxu has no demands on the two people. It is easier to gain the favor of the two people just by helping friends.

Of course, this is just a good impression, which makes William and Roman feel that he is a Chinese. As for whether they can become friends. That's another matter.

A few people stood and chatted for a few words, and the auction was about to start. Dale invited Yang Dongxu to the upper box, not the royal box. It was her own box, but Yang Dongxu smiled and refused, indicating Toy's side, saying that he still had friends.

So William and others who had come down to chat for a while returned to the upper box. Yang Dongxu and Roman went to the front row and sat with Toy and others.

Seeing this scene, the people in the auction hall couldn't help but be very curious about this guy with a Chinese face. After all, not everyone can make Prince William come down from the box to say a few words.

"He has a lot of investments in the UK?" Li Changze, who was sitting not far away, couldn't help but ask.

Although he appeared calm on the surface, he was very envious in his heart. As I said just now, not everyone can talk to Prince William.

Especially Changhe Industrial, although its current investment center is in China, it has always been very interested in Europe and the United States, especially the UK. Naturally, it hopes to have a relationship with the royal family, so he can't help but be a little jealous in his envy.

Because he is a few years older than Yang Dongxu, and more importantly, he has been very smooth since he was a child. Every time he meets Yang Dongxu, he always feels that he is suppressed by this guy who is younger than him and is very unconvinced.

"I don't know about this, but he seems to have a good relationship with the woman next to Prince William just now. The woman is from the family of the late Princess Diana of the United Kingdom, and is Prince William's cousin.

The relationship between the two has always been very good. When Dale graduated, Prince William personally attended her graduation ceremony." Bao Xingyu shook his head. He really didn't know whether Yang Dongxu had a big investment in the UK.

Of course, he didn't say much about the gossip between Yang Dongxu and Dale. After all, it was only a few days after Xin Juntai's previous experience, and now in this kind of venue, he knew that even if he whispered, it would still be spread by others.

If Dale knew about this, he would never be able to stay in London in the future. Didn't you see that Xin Juntai returned to Korea in a mess the next day? I guess he will never come to London in this life?
