Chapter 187
Tonight's grand charity auction is Xinya's first time to officially walk around in the circle in the name of Miss Wen after her introduction dinner. To build momentum, don't want to show her around and get to know some celebrities in the circle.
Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need for Mr. Wen to stay for a long time, so he handed Wen Xinya over to Zhou Huiyan and left the scene early.
At this time, Wen Haowen answered a phone call, hurriedly explained some things to Ning Shuqian, said hello to the host of the banquet, Zhou Huiyan, and left halfway, everyone chatted, and soon it was time for the auction of exhibits at nine o'clock, everyone They all sat down.
Zhou Huiyan walked up to the high platform, with a smile in the spring breeze and rain, her soft eyes first scanned the hall, and then she said to the microphone: "First of all, welcome everyone to come to participate in this charity donation auction, and secondly, thank you for your generosity. This charitable fundraising activity has presented precious love, those children in impoverished mountainous areas, and those physically handicapped children in the society, feel your love, and will definitely have a better future."
Zhou Huiyan's words were concise, powerful, and full of emotion, which caused thunderous applause from the audience.
After the applause died down, Zhou Huiyan said with a smile: "I will first verify that all the items donated this time will be auctioned at the auction, and the principle of openness and transparency will be implemented to the end. Building schools in mountainous areas, and physically handicapped children in society.”
There was another burst of applause below.
Zhou Huiyan changed the subject: "Now I announce that the auction will officially begin."
As soon as the words fell, she hammered the wooden hammer on the auction stage heavily.
The sound of "Boom!" was the final word, and the atmosphere in the field was brought into another atmosphere at once.
The Wen family donated the auction. After Zhou Huiyan came down, the auctioneer stood where Zhou Huiyan was standing before, and began to auction one by one exhibits. Most of the exhibits were jewelry, works of art and the like, and the atmosphere gradually reached a climax.
The Wen family donated things, so there is no need to bid for auction items, but before leaving, Grandpa told her that if there is something she likes, she can take it for auction.
The items were bid one by one. So far, the value of the auction has generally remained at around 2 million, and the most expensive one is only more than 2.8 million.
At this moment, a pair of exquisite diamond earrings were placed on the auction stage. They were extremely rare pink diamonds. The two earrings should weigh five carats together. The light and quiet color and elegant and luxurious demeanor immediately attracted Ning Shu. Qian's eyes.
When Wen Haowen left just now, he asked her to take a photo of a jewelry she liked as compensation for not being able to give her the Ocean Star, but the value must be within five million.
Although Ning Shuqian still felt unwilling and resentful for not being able to get the ocean star, it was better to have compensation than nothing. The star is Mo Yunyao's old property, and it belongs to the Wen family. Of course, Wen Haowen would not pay attention to it, but the things that were photographed were actually paid for by Wen Haowen.
The starting price of this pair of pink diamond earrings is 500,000, and each bid must not be less than 100,000. Ning Shuqian immediately raised a sign: "600,000!"
Wen Xinya tilted her head and saw Ning Shuqian looking at the pink diamond earrings on the stage, showing confidence that she was bound to win, the smile on her lips deepened, she took out her phone and sent a message.
Then someone shouted the price: "One million!"
Shu Qian was so angry that her teeth itch, who the hell is it! With such wealth and wealth, the first asking price was 400,000, she couldn't help but gritted her teeth: "1,100,000!"
It was the same voice as before: "One and a half million!"
She shouted 400,000 more than her. Ning Shuqian really wanted to turn her head and turn to the back to see who was against her all the time, but it is impolite to turn her head and look behind at the auction. She gritted her teeth and held up a placard: "Two million!"
"Two million four hundred thousand!"
Ning Shuqian just barely cursed, holding the cards in her hand and holding up: "Two and a half million!"
"Two million and nine hundred thousand!" The haughty voice sneered coldly.
Ning Shuqian's hand holding the sign was throbbing with veins, wishing to tear the mouth that was against her: "Three million!"
The highest auctioned item before was 2.8 million. Now this pair of pink diamond earrings has reached a new auction high. The auctioneer smiled excitedly: "Three million, three million, is it more expensive than three million?" High price, this is a Cartier pink diamond, a rare natural colored diamond among diamonds, and it is also a rare red color diamond. Everyone knows that red color diamonds are the most precious among colored diamonds, and this pair of colored diamond earrings, whether it is Both the cut and the workmanship are very beautiful, and the elegant and luxurious style is indeed fascinating."
The voice of the auctioneer has a unique charm. When it is high, it is passionate and can arouse everyone's emotions. When it is low, it is magnetic and has the magic power to seduce people. The previous voice sounded again: "3.4 million!"
Another four hundred thousand! Ning Shuqian almost didn't yell at her, but she had to say that what the auctioneer said just now made her heart burn. Cartier is the world's top jewelry brand. How many people are proud of owning Cartier diamonds, and she is no exception. And what the auctioneer said was right, natural colored diamonds have gradually become a trend among noble ladies in the Beijing circle, and many people will collect several colored diamonds.
And although she has several sets of blue colored diamonds in her hand, she has none of the red colored diamonds. Once before, she and Hao Wen attended a medium-sized charity dinner, and a lady she knew was wearing a diamond. The light pink diamond ring turned out to be the focus of the banquet, and she was extremely envious.
The color of the ring is not as bright as this pair of earrings, and the color is not as pure as this pair of earrings. She thinks that this pair of pink diamond earrings is specially designed for her, so she is bound to get this pair of pink diamond earrings, so she gritted her teeth and held a sign :"four million!"
She raised the auction price all at once, just to make the other party quit!
"4.4 million!"
Ning Shuqian's complexion became ugly, no matter how stupid she was, she knew that the other party was deliberately teasing her, otherwise why would she increase the price by 400,000 every time!
She wanted to continue to bid, but the other party was so persistent, it was obvious that she did not intend to give up the pair of pink diamond earrings. She expected that the pair of pink diamond earrings would be less than three million, and the top four million would be able to get them, but now The value soared to 4.4 million, and the maximum limit Wen Haowen gave her was 5 million, so she naturally couldn't afford to continue asking for the price!
"Let me tell you that the high-ranking junior in front is 4.4 million. Everything goes well. What an auspicious number. Don't fight me anymore. You can't beat me anyway." Arrogant and domineering mixed with contempt The mocking voice suddenly sounded in the quiet banquet hall.
Everyone looked at Ning Shuqian one after another. Ning Shuqian's face twitched and deformed, but she tried her best to maintain her noble and elegant side. Looking back, she saw a lady in a purple dress looking at her contemptuously. It was the noble lady who was beaten up by Yuya at Wenxinya's introduction dinner before, she seemed to be the wife of the Shen family.
