Chapter 1,365 Almost Killed Someone

1365

As time went on, more and more stars entered the scene.

Zhao Xiaohua, the director of the crew, and the leading actors and actresses entered the convention and exhibition center at around 8:30. From this point in time, their weight can be seen.

After these people entered the convention and exhibition center, they were not in a hurry to find their seats. Instead, they found Xu Taiping and Zhao Xiaohua. When they saw Xu Taiping and Zhao Xiaohua sitting in the back, they left together. past.

"Why are you sitting here?" the director asked in surprise.

"That's how the seats are arranged, sit here!" Xu Taiping said.

"How is this possible? How can you sit here? I'll go and report it to the organizing committee!" the director said.

"No need!" Xu Taiping shook his head and said, "This time I came here to offer love. Does it matter where you sit? There is no need to sit in the front."

"What you said is correct!" The director nodded.

"You guys go to your places. Let's wait until things here are over and then get together again!" Xu Taiping said.

"Okay, Mr. Xu, Xiaohua, you guys sit here while we go to the front!" the director said, leading the people around him to the front.

About ten minutes later, there was a sudden burst of cheers at the entrance of the Convention and Exhibition Center.

Xu Taiping looked at the door and saw an acquaintance walking in from the door.

This acquaintance was none other than Li Jiangshan.

Li Jiangshan was accompanied by a stunning woman. Both of them were dressed very casually. When they walked in from the door, the celebrities and artists along the way greeted Li Jiangshan one after another. Even many celebrities who had already taken their seats stood up and walked to Li Jiangshan. Say hello to Li Jiangshan.

Li Jiangshan had a faint smile on his face and basically just nodded to the celebrities around him.

With shouts and crowds all the way, Li Jiangshan reached the front.

Because he was surrounded by people, Li Jiangshan didn't even see Xu Taiping.

"Li Jiangshan is here!" Zhao Xiaohua said in surprise.

"Rich people can do well wherever they go." Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"Li Jiangshan has invested in many entertainment companies in Hong Kong and has a very distinguished status." Zhao Xiaohua explained.

"That's it!" Xu Taiping smiled and said nothing more.

More and more people entered the convention and exhibition center. Xu Taiping saw the celebrities he had seen before, and also saw the man named Mr. Zhu.

Li Jiangshan's position was arranged in the center of the first row. Mr. Zhu sat next to Li Jiangshan. On the other side of Li Jiangshan and his female companion, sat the Filmmakers Association who Xu Taiping had met once before. Vice President Lin Zai Rong.

These three people can almost be said to be the three most distinguished people at this charity party. Next to these three people are Ye Luoshi and Han Qiuya, whom Xu Taiping had just met.

As one after another celebrities entered the party, this fashionable Saba party officially began.

Since it is linked to fashion, there will naturally be some fashionable things, and the organizer arranged a conference for autumn clothing.

It's September now, and autumn is coming soon, so it makes sense to hold an autumn fashion conference at this time.

However, Xu Taiping really didn't have any appreciation for this so-called fashion conference. He could never get used to the clothes displayed on the catwalk, so those models could make Xu Taiping focus a little on the catwalk. On stage.

Zhao Xiaohua, who was sitting next to Xu Taiping, looked at it with great interest. Xu Taiping couldn't help but ask, "You dare to wear these clothes on the street?"

"Why don't you dare? This is all fashion." Zhao Xiaohua said.

"Is fashion just about enlarging the scarves and hanging them on clothes?" Xu Taiping asked, pointing to a model on the stage.

"What kind of scarf is it? It's a decoration, you don't understand." Zhao Xiaohua shook her head.

"Okay." Xu Taiping shrugged, indicating that he really didn't understand.

Soon, the fashion conference was over. After the fashion conference, the highlight of the party, the charity auction, was about to begin.

Charity auctions are different from ordinary auctions. In ordinary auctions, everyone hopes to buy the most valuable things at the lowest price, but in charity auctions, everyone tries to raise the price as much as possible to sell the items for more money. Then use the money to sell for charity.

"I heard that there are a lot of items in this auction, and many masters have donated their works! There are still many caring people in the world." Zhao Xiaohua said.

"Let's look at this kind of thing from two sides," Xu Taiping said. "Donating works by masters does not necessarily mean they are caring. I have heard people say that this kind of charity auction is a feast for various masters."

"How to say?" Zhao Xiaohua asked.

"Because everyone is raising the price. A ceramic Buddha statue of your master can only be sold for 500,000 yuan. It is guaranteed to be sold here for 1 million, and this million is equivalent to raising the price." Do you understand the worth of this master?" Xu Taiping said.

"So there is such an operation!" Zhao Xiaohua suddenly realized.

"But we still have to look at this auction from a pure perspective. After all, we are doing good things! So no matter whether the thing is high or low, as long as you take it out, it is good." Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"For example, your Gong Xi Fa Cai?" Zhao Xiaohua asked.

"The enemy!" Xu Taiping nodded.

On the stage, with the host's speech, this charity auction officially began.

The first thing I took was a piece of blue and white porcelain, which is quite precious.

Normally, the value of the first item in the auction will not be low, which can serve as a warm-up.

The auction of this blue and white porcelain ended quickly and sold for 800,000 yuan, a very good price.

The second lot was delivered quickly.

This second lot is basically the least valuable item in the auction industry, because everyone's emotions have been aroused by the first item, so this second lot must be appropriately priced. Suppressing everyone's emotions first will play a role in suppressing them first and then raising them, so that when the really valuable things start to be auctioned later, everyone's emotions can reach a very high level.

"This is a calligraphy." The host took the microphone and said, "It was handwritten by one of our guests at the scene. The name of this guest is, I'm sorry. Due to our work error, we did not register this guest's name. Name, could you please raise your hand for this guest?"

Xu Taiping smiled and raised his hand.

"It turns out to be our Mr. Xu!" the host said with a smile, "This is a word written by Mr. Xu himself. Although the literal meaning is very simple, it is the most talked about sentence among us Hong Kong people. Although Mr. Xu is not He is a calligrapher, but we can see that the writing skills of this calligraphy are still very high, and the framing is also very good. Okay, everyone can start bidding. There is no reserve price for this bidding."

As the host finished speaking, the scene suddenly fell into silence.

Some people looked at Xu Taiping, and some looked at the words on the field.

Although the host introduced a lot, it boils down to the same meaning.

This calligraphy and painting is worthless.

To praise a calligraphy and painting, one can only praise its framing. Doesn’t this mean that the calligraphy and painting is not valuable? Otherwise, if there are too many words to praise the calligraphy, it would be impossible to say that the calligraphy is well framed, right?

Many people had joking expressions on their faces. For such a large charity auction, someone who was not a calligrapher actually took out his own calligraphy. Is this person overconfident?

Many people are waiting to see Xu Taiping's joke. It is obvious that this piece of calligraphy will definitely set the lowest price record for charity auctions in so many years.

"One hundred dollars!"

A woman's voice suddenly came to mind.

Everyone looked around and saw that the woman who shouted out the price was none other than Anru, who liked to quarrel with newcomers.

There were several bursts of laughter.

"It's not bad to buy a Geely for 100 yuan!" Anru said with a smile.

The roar of laughter grew louder.

"It's embarrassing..." Zhao Xiaohua said.

"Why... why hasn't the Cowherd come yet?!" Xu Taiping said angrily.

Previously, Niu Lang said that he would come and would provide support for him, but it turned out that it had been so long since the party started that Cowherd still hadn't come, so Taiping Xu had no one to support him, which was embarrassing.

If this was really sold for a hundred yuan, it would definitely be a shame to Xu Taiping!

Xu Taiping had already begun to think about whether to send a message to the director and ask the director to offer a higher price, and he would call the director later.

At this moment, the director raised his hand very wisely.

"One hundred thousand," the director shouted.

"One hundred thousand, our guest bids one hundred thousand! It's incredible. This painting is worth one hundred thousand, which can be said to be a thousand dollars. Let everyone applaud the director's kindness!" the host shouted.

There were bursts of applause.

"It's still possible!" Xu Taiping breathed a sigh of relief.

Just when everyone thought that this painting would eventually be sold for 100,000 yuan, the leading actor next to the director suddenly raised his hand and said, "200,000 yuan."

"Two hundred thousand?! Well, our guest has now raised the price of this calligraphy to two hundred thousand. This is a very high price. I heard that the person who wrote this calligraphy was our guest. An investor in a new drama, it seems that there are some benefits to being an investor!" the host laughed!

The host's words made many people present who were surprised by the asking price of 200,000 yuan suddenly realize that the person who wrote the words was an investor. If the main actor performed 200,000 yuan, he must be trying to please the investors.

"Two hundred thousand, does anyone want to increase the price?" the host shouted.

The scene was quiet.

"Since no one has raised the price, I declare..."

"Wait a minute!" A deep voice suddenly sounded from the front row, and then, an old man with gray hair and a childish face stood up from his seat.

This old man was sitting in the first row. Although he was on the side, his status was definitely not simple if he could sit in the first row.

"Oh? Mr. Huang, do you want to increase the price?!" the host asked in surprise.

"I want to go up and look at this calligraphy!" The man named Mr. Huang said in a deep voice.

"Look at the calligraphy?" the host asked in surprise, "Are you going to see this calligraphy?!"

"Yes!" Mr. Huang nodded, then walked straight onto the stage, came to the front of the calligraphy written by Xu Taiping, and read it carefully.

The entire scene was silent, and everyone looked at Mr. Huang in surprise.

You know, Mr. Huang is a master of calligraphy. He doesn't bother to read what most people write. But Mr. Huang actually came to the stage to read this calligraphy in person. Is it possible that there is some mystery behind this calligraphy?
