Chapter 381: Emotional Intelligence

The guests and crews participating in the auction arrived one after another, and rich people and stars of different levels took their seats from front to back.

There are basically no stars sitting in the first row; they are basically entrepreneurs, but the tables are relatively the fewest.

The tables in the second row are twice as many, and they are all domestic top-notch stars and internet celebrities.

At Miss Luo Quan's table, in addition to Director Jiang Wen, there are several big names, including the 5 billion Golden Horse Best Actor Wang Bo, the founder of road comedy Xu Zheng, and the remaining few are also first-line powerful stars.

However, Miss Luo Quan is also a newborn calf not afraid of tigers. Sitting among so many big shots, she didn't show any timidity. After all, she is also an international superstar. Compared with those little fresh meats who only rely on traffic, her confidence is quite sufficient.

Hosting the first auction is the recently popular Running Man family. These people in the Running Man family were originally second and third-tier film and television stars, but after appearing in the variety show "Running Man," they jumped to become first-line stars.

This time, the organizer directly invited the entire Running Man family to host. This network and handwriting are quite hard. You must know that the individual announcement fees of these people are all over one million.

In addition to fame, these people in the Running Man family are naturally humorous. After going on stage, they mobilized the atmosphere of the scene in a few words.

After the jokes ended, the host specially thanked the Zhenhua charity organization that hosted this auction, and also expressed gratitude to the stars and rich people who were willing to come to support the charity cause.

After the scene words were finished, the first auction officially began.

"The first auction item today is a sapphire necklace donated by the Zhenhua charity organization, made by a Belgian gemstone master, luxurious and exquisite, with great ornamental and collection value. The starting price is 2 million, and each increase is not less than 500,000."

"2 million!" A female star in the third row was very satisfied with this necklace and shouted the price as soon as it started.

Like this kind of charity gala, everyone is relatively harmonious, and the purpose of coming is also for the name. Unless you see a very favorite auction item, you will generally fulfill others' beauty.

So after this female star shouted the price, no one followed up to raise the price.

The patriarch of the Running Man family, Cheng Zhao, asked: "Is there any higher bid than 2 million?

2 million once?

2 million twice.

Deal!"

Cheng Zhao knocked down the wooden hammer with a bang, and the first order auction was completed.

"Thank you, thank you Li Ying for the 2 million contributed to the charity cause." Under Cheng Zhao's call, everyone applauded.

"The next second auction item is still provided by the Zhenhua charity organization. It is an oil painting from a young impressionist painter abroad. The starting price is 1 million."

"1 million!" A rich man in the third row raised his sign.

"1.5 million!" Wang Bo, who was sitting at Miss Luo Quan's table, immediately raised the sign in his hand and raised the price.

"Brother Bo, I can't tell that you have research on oil painting?" Cheng Zhao joked on stage.

As a best actor who struggled from the bottom, Wang Bo has always been known for his high emotional intelligence. His friends are all over the circle. When attending such occasions, he often bursts out golden sentences and absorbs fans on hot searches.

"2 million."

Here Wang Bo hasn't answered yet, and someone in the fourth row raised the sign again.

"President Zhang, President Zhang called 2 million! Is there any higher?"

"2.5 million." Wang Bo continued to raise the price. It seems he likes this oil painting very much.

"Brother Bo 2.5 million, Brother Bo 250, 250?" Originally, this kind of price increase is easy to cause dissatisfaction among bidders, but the few living treasures on stage joked, and the whole audience laughed immediately.

Wang Bo himself didn't mind everyone joking about him, and his face was also full of smiles.

"3 million." Suddenly, the guest in the first row raised the sign.

"Yo President Huang, President Huang bid 3 million!" Cheng Zhao raised his voice, and the camera at the scene was also given to the first row.

"Heh, this old ghost is still jumping." Miss Luo Quan saw this President Huang who bid, and sneered.

Isn't this Huang Jun, the boss of Huayi? Before, she gave this person some eye drops at the GD deputy director's place. Originally, she thought he was going to be unlucky, but she didn't expect that he still had the leisure to come out to participate in the auction. It seems that those leaders are also people who act one way in front and another behind.

"Do you have a grudge against President Huang?" Jiang Wen heard Miss Luo Quan's muttering and asked in a low voice.

As a member of the Beijing circle, he also has some friendship with Huang Jun, but it is not deep. After all, there are many courtyards in the Beijing circle.

"Not only is there, but it's also very big." Miss Luo Quan is not arrogant. Huayi has been making waves in the Chinese entertainment industry for so many years. Stars who dare to sing against them are either banned or in prison, and the outcomes are not very good.

Miss Luo Quan is the only star in recent years who dared to choke Huang Jun directly on the phone, and also the only star who is still alive and kicking until now.

Jiang Wen said in a deep voice: "Although the circle on Huang Jun's side is getting worse, the thin camel is bigger than the horse. You are a girl. If you can not provoke, don't provoke."

Miss Luo Quan sneered: "Then you are wrong. I have never provoked President Huang. It is he who is bullying people too much."

"That group of people still has power. You are a girl and alone. It is not easy to resist to the end. If there is still room for maneuver, I can help organize a game and say something." Director Jiang Wen still has a good impression of Miss Luo Quan.

He also knows about Huayi's broken things, and he can guess the reason for the conflict with Miss Luo Quan. At least Huayi has not issued a ban on Miss Luo Quan yet, which means that things have not reached the worst point, and there is no chance to turn big things into small things.

Miss Luo Quan shook her head: "Thank you Director Jiang for your kindness, but I have no good feelings for Huayi. Moreover, this is not just my own business. My artists are also at odds with Huayi, so there is nothing to reconcile between the two sides."

"Your artist?" Jiang Wen was stunned.

Miss Luo Quan said softly: "It's a newcomer who just graduated from school and is very beautiful. Because she refused a dinner party two years ago, she has been banned until now."

Jiang Wen is a smart person. Hearing Miss Luo Quan say this, he immediately understood:

"This matter, there is really no room for reconciliation."

Miss Luo Quan didn't answer, didn't say any harsh words about making Huayi pay the price in the future.

With her current energy, self-protection is definitely no problem, but she doesn't have the qualification to say these harsh words yet.

And this kind of thing should be kept in mind, there is no need to hang it on the lips for others to know.

After talking here, the bidding there was almost over. The hosts played tricks, and Huang Jun took the auction item in laughter.

However, although Huang Jun took the painting, the hosts asked Wang Bo to speak.

Wang Bo held the microphone and said softly: "Actually, I really don't have any research on painting. This time, I am mainly a guest of assistance. Yes, I basically belong to the bait released………………"

Originally, everyone was waiting for this high-emotional-intelligence actor to say some wonderful golden sentences, but this time, as soon as the words were finished, the faces of the people on and off the stage changed.

You are the bait for this assistant guest, so who is the fish being hung?

Many eyes looked at a big head in the first row who ate the bait with 3 million.

Huang Jun was smiling a moment ago, but at this time he was already cold, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Those who can do this are all people with faces, not lacking money, not lacking name, so the most important thing is a face.

Being called the fish being caught in public, no one's mood will be very good.

Not to mention Huang Jun, who is used to being arrogant and domineering. In the past, when those stars and actors faced him, let alone joking, they didn't dare to breathe!

Now, although Huayi has fallen, it doesn't mean that these stars can turn over and become masters.

No matter how red a star is, it is a star. No matter how poor capital is, it is capital!

The few hosts on stage were the fastest to react, immediately making Wang Bo, who still wanted to continue talking, sit down, and at the same time joked about Wang Bo and his own people, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"5 million!" Xu Zheng, who was sitting next to Wang Bo, raised the sign, "I bid 5 million for this painting."

"Xu Zheng bid 5 million, is there any higher!" Cheng Zhao was really grateful to Xu Zheng's eight generations of ancestors at this time.

Originally, it was almost a dead end. I didn't expect Xu Zheng to be willing to pay a high price to be this fish being caught. It can only be said that the relationship between Xu Zheng and Wang Bo is really iron.

After quickly asking if anyone raised the price, Cheng Zhao announced that this auction item was taken by Xu Zheng.

And Wang Bo, who had already reacted, also had an unnatural smile on his face, looking at his good brother with grateful eyes.

This time the hosts didn't let Xu Zheng speak again, but carried out the auction of the third collection.

Miss Luo Quan watched this scene from the side, and felt a pity in her heart. It's a pity that President Huang was not determined to win this painting, otherwise she would have to raise the price to disgust him.

Although Huang Jun lost face there, he was soon rounded back by Xu Zheng. Everyone also knew that this was a misunderstanding, so they didn't pay much attention.

Huang Jun's face at this time also returned to the previous harmonious appearance. No matter if he couldn't remember this matter in his heart, at least the demeanor on the surface had to be maintained.

As for whether Wang Bo should go to apologize to Huang Jun in private, that is his business.

Because of this, the number of people raising the price in the subsequent charity auction segment was significantly less. Most of the auction items were basically traded at such low prices. Even if there were price increases, it was between stars and stars.

In more than an hour, 32 collections were sold.

Miss Luo Quan observed carefully, and it seems that these auction items are new objects, and most of them come from abroad. No one knows the specific price, but the auction side is set at more than one million, and the premium is quite high.

No wonder it is called coming to pay protection fees, but all these auction prices added up to less than 100 million. If this is also considered a protection fee, would it be too low?

This question is destined to be answered by no one for her.

Soon, the second round of the auction began.

This time, the auction was hosted by a professional auctioneer, wearing a decent black suit, white gloves, and two tall beauties standing behind, one Chinese and one Western, each with its own characteristics.

"Welcome guests to participate in this international treasure auction hosted by the Zhenhua charity organization. Later, ten treasures from foreign collectors will be auctioned. Please wait and see."

After speaking, the audience applauded.

Everyone knows that this is the highlight of tonight, and it will be the real battlefield for the rich big shots to kill!

"Next, please ask my two assistants to take out the first collection tonight." During the speech, the two beauties had already pushed a black car and walked slowly.

The car was loaded with a one-meter-square safe. The auctioneer turned his back to the crowd and twisted the password disk on the safe.

Soon, the safe opened with a crisp click, and the auctioneer took out a long sword about 90 cm long with a handle from it.

The auctioneer slowly pulled the sword out of the sheath, and the cold light flashed past everyone's eyes. The guests closest to it even felt a trace of chill.

"Good sword!" As a licensed successor of the Beichen Yidao Liu, Miss Luo Quan has an extraordinary intuition for weapons. Whether a sword is good or not can be seen at a glance.

"This Japanese sword comes from a collector in the United States who does not want to reveal his name. He told us that this sword is called 'Myoho Muramasa' and is a rare treasure sword. It was brought back from Japan by his grandfather that year and has significant historical commemorative significance. If it weren't for the family's decline and the urgent need for cash turnover, he wouldn't come to take this sword out for auction."

Hearing the auctioneer call out the name of this sword, Miss Luo Quan was slightly surprised.

Muramasa is actually the title of a famous sword craftsman in Ise Province during the Warring States period in Japan. There are many generations of Muramasa, and the weapons they crafted, whether it is a Tachi, a short sword, or a long spear, are called Muramasa.

And Myoho Muramasa is the most famous of all Muramasa, which is the one that gave Tokugawa Ieyasu's youngest son the Kaishaku that year.

Although in terms of level, Muramasa cannot compare to the top Japanese famous swords known as the Five Swords under Heaven such as Mikazuki Munechika, Dojigiri Yasutsuna, and Onimaru Kunitsuna, in terms of its own historical value, it is definitely a Japanese national-level collection.

Only Americans have the ability to let such treasures flow outside.

"Starting price is 50 million US dollars, each increase is not less than 5 million US dollars!"

The auctioneer shouted a price that was neither high nor low.

50 million US dollars, nearly 400 million RMB, but for a treasure of this level, it is still a bit low.

But who let Muramasa have the name of a demon sword, plus the rich people present are all Chinese. If it is set too high, it is estimated that there will be a possibility of flow auction.

Also because of the bad legend of Muramasa, Miss Luo Quan did not have the idea of wanting to take it down.

Although she is not so superstitious, she still felt a bit scared when she heard that the current owner of this sword also needed to sell the sword because of the family's decline.

It can only be said that this sword is still not good enough. If the auctioneer could take out a Kusanagi, she would have to get one even if she smashed the pot and sold iron!

It's a pity that even the Japanese themselves probably can't take this thing out.

Soon, someone in the audience began to bid. There has never been a lack of rich people in this world who don't believe in evil.
