"Haha, did you see the look on his face? It's like being punched in the face by Tyson. It's so funny."
Looking at Andre gloating over the misfortune, Renly shook his head slightly and gestured with his eyes, which made Andre stunned for a while, and then slowly recovered.
During the auction, it was easy to get overwhelmed and lose your mind. Andre was so immersed in the excitement of the auction just now that he was a little carried away. Now that he calmed down, he also noticed the abnormality. , his brows could not help frowning slightly, "Is it coming towards you, or is it me?"
"There are only a few people who know the owner of the auction item in advance. They must be people we know, or people that Alexander trusts. This means that the other party is likely to come at you." Renly calmly gave out the analysis.
At present they have too little information and not much analysis:
The No. 43 was the dark horse that came out in the final stage. Before that, it was Andre and Dave who were mainly competing. With the addition of Matthew and Eaton, it was not difficult to see that Andre should be determined to win. In the end, No. 43 defeated Dave in a continuous bid increase, with a high probability that the time was for Andre.
Of course, it could be for Dave, it could be for Alexander, it could be for Renly... The potential is too many.
But what is certain is that the chances of auctioning a snuff bottle with a market value of 300,000 pounds for 1.5 million pounds are simply too small for personal collection. Even for charity, this is a bit unreasonable. What's more, this is a gathering place of the upper class with intricate personal connections, and the guests present are more or less involved in the relationship, so it is difficult to simply look at the reasons.
Obviously, this is not good news for Dave.
Dave's face was not very good-looking, and Beatrice was still immersed in the just excited atmosphere, ignoring Dave's depression for a while.
Just when everyone thought the excitement was over, auctioneer Howard said again, "Congratulations to Mr. No. 43 for winning the bid at a price of 1.5 million pounds. Regarding this auction item, we have hidden the donation. The name of the person, a hidden surprise of the auction, can finally be announced, and let us applaud Mr. Renly-Hall for his generous donation."
What?
The guests at the scene were both surprised and delighted, showing disbelief, and applause broke out one after another. Those stupefied and envious eyes made the atmosphere of the audience subtle; The gaze cast by the agent became more and more strange.
Dave sat where he was, and it was hard to tell the specific emotion with that stiff expression.
"After the auction is over, Mr. Renly-Hall will personally hand over the snuff bottle to the winning bidder. Thank you to these two gentlemen for their contribution to charity." Howard's words made the applause warmer and his eyes The information contained in it is inexhaustible.
Whether this is better news for the winning bidder, or better news for Renly—or a win-win: a meeting between Renly and No. 43 may well be It is not known what the final result of the establishment of a network bridge will be fermented.
So, who is No. 43?
In any case, the second-stage auction came to an end in a lively atmosphere, and it was obvious that the residual temperature was still surging in the air, so that the opening of the third-stage auction was a little dull - no The way, the waves created by the snuff bottle are really too exaggerated.
Even Alexander was a little helpless.
Renly turned his head and cast his gaze towards Alexander, only to find that Alexander spread his hands with a smile: He also couldn't check the auction numbers corresponding to the guests one by one. Need to go back and investigate; he also did not expect the accident on the 43rd, 1.5 million pounds, no matter what the other party's real purpose is, Alexander must buy this favor.
After the charity auction, Alexander, as the organizer, was able to raise such a high amount of money, and his name would undoubtedly rise to a higher level. Whether as a direct or indirect beneficiary, he had no way to take this favor. Throw it away, so he also needs to pay close attention to the subsequent development of this matter.
The third phase of the auction kicked off with a football donated by David Beckham.
Beckham donated a final ball for this year's World Cup in Brazil, and invited the main players of the British national team to complete the signature, of course, and his own signature.
This year is a very dark year for the British football team. They were eliminated from the group stage of the World Cup and finally ranked only 26th among the top 32, the lowest ranking among the traditional powerhouses, even more than the defending champion who was eliminated from the group stage. Spain is even worse. It is a big disappointment that none of the teams that have been known as the "strongest national team" have been able to make a name for themselves.
But no matter what, the influence of football in the UK is still self-evident, and all the connections and fame that Beckham has come from here.
The auction will choose Beckham as the unveiling guest of the third stage, which is also a kind of affirmation to him, and we look forward to him being able to drive the atmosphere of the scene; unfortunately, no one expected the accident of the snuff bottle, and the whole situation is out of The original development trajectory, so Beckham has become cannon fodder - unintended.
Auction of autographed soccer balls
It was deserted, but the overall heat was indeed disappointing, and it was finally sold for only 800 pounds, creating the lowest price since today's auction.
Soon after, items donated by Victoria Beckham also appeared. She chose a pair of high heels designed by herself, mainly to show her own characteristics and to make a name for her fashion brand. It is a pity that today's charity auction is destined to be no ordinary occasion. If you choose to promote it here, the effect is destined to be unsatisfactory.
In the end, the high heels sparked some competition and were sold for £2,600, which was basically in line with the original market price of the item.
With the warm-up and advancement, the auction of the third stage has gradually started to become lively after all.
Maggie Smith donated the script for the first episode of "Downton Abbey" season one, Vera-wang donated a new wedding dress, and Ian McLean donated a painting of her own... …and so on, without artworks, more are the personal items of public figures, including but not limited to gloves, clothing, water bottles, photography, jewelry, movie peripherals, etc., each item has its own meaning .
This is the mainstream of charity auctions. Everyone contributes. Compared with the value of the items, the support for charity is the most important thing. Those small items can be auctioned for thousands or even tens of thousands of pounds, contributing to charity One power, that's enough. In comparison, the second-stage auction is a scene unique to the upper class, even a little scary.
As for the auction price, there are highs and lows. It may be based on fame, the item, or the fate... The value of the item itself cannot be accurately estimated. In the end, it depends on the auction atmosphere on the spot. Anyway, the final auction The amounts are all for charity, aren't they?
The so-called "starlight" is not just artists, but all public figures are included, such as upstarts in the financial district of London, such as best-selling writers, such as district councillors, such as TV hosts... and so on, which are more down-to-earth At the same time, it also added a little lightness and joy to the whole auction.
Before I knew it, more than forty items had been auctioned in the third phase, and then the whole event came to an end.
Howard also looked a little tired. The duration of the entire auction was a bit over the limit. Although there were two breaks in the middle, it still exceeded the load. "Our schedule has been delayed a little, and it is now close to lunch time, in order to avoid interruptions. Everyone's physiological needs time, we'd better speed up the progress." Howard also activated the atmosphere a little, and then once again invested in the last auction tonight.
"Next, is the last auction item of our audience. As predicted, we specially invited a mysterious guest, hoping that he can add more color to our auction, and in fact, he did."
All the guests kept quiet.
"This is undoubtedly the most watched and successful actor in the world in the past five years. No one, he broke the prejudice with superb and delicate performances, about age, about roles, about origin, and so on, he Prove one thing: good and good actors are just about professionalism."
"He became the youngest egot in history, and it took less than four years to create such a miracle; he created many records at the movie box office, and his strong appeal truly achieved the feat of being a home court in the world; at the same time, he also He has his own beliefs in philanthropy and is giving back to society in his own way.”
"The most important thing is that the actor came from a prestigious family. His family background is undoubtedly talked about, but he has bravely left his comfort zone and devoted himself to acting, so that the whole world will realize that the British This piece of land has once again produced a great actor who will go down in history!"
"I think you should all know the identity of this mysterious guest! The snuff bottle he donated has just made a splash, and now he has brought the second donation of the day, let us applaud: Renly-Huo Your Excellency!"
Even if it is an occasion where elites gather, even if it is a scene where nobles gather, even if it is a reserved and polite occasion, at this moment, in Howard's words, it is inevitable to be excited and excited. It became a thunderous sensation, and the whole audience could feel the excitement, and curiosity was inevitably brought into the sight.
