Chapter 354: Shameless Second-Rate Actor
Jian Wei looked at the woman in red who shouted for a bid of 2,000 yuan, and then shouted for a price of 5,000 yuan without any pressure. The scene was once again in a hustle and bustle because of her bid.
Everyone's eyes were once again focused on the woman in red, curious whether she would continue to increase the price. Some of the crowd had participated in the last event and had seen her strength before, so they cheered: "Call ten thousand, shout ten thousand..."
The woman in red ignored those who made excuses and shouted out the bid price of 6,000 yuan without any hesitation, and stopped talking. She seemed to be well versed in the art of bidding and did not show off her sharpness like last time.
This time, Jian Wei directly called out a bid of 10,000 yuan, but the woman in red still only added 1,000 yuan. This lukewarm behavior made Jian Wei a little angry. She once again shouted out a price of 20,000 yuan amid the noise of the crowd. However, the woman in red still maintained her previous rhythm and added 1,000 yuan without any pain.
At this time, I couldn't help but feel worried about Jian Wei. After all, I had already learned about the true identity of the woman in red at this time. There were not many people who had the strength to compete with her on the scene, and Jian Wei had no need to compete with her.
A single big bed room was called to a price of 21,000 yuan. Everyone's eyes once again gathered on Jian Wei, wondering whether she would continue to follow, but no one was making a fuss like before, because such a price had far exceeded the reasonable range.
Jian Wei shrugged and said to the woman in red, "A gentleman does not take away what others like. Since you like it so much, just take it!"
I suddenly felt relieved, thinking that my worries were unnecessary. After all, Jian Wei was a strong woman who struggled in the business world. She was completely different from a female star like Le Yao whose value had skyrocketed due to opportunities. She knew how to judge the situation and would not show her courage for a while. But her saying that a gentleman did not win the favor made me feel a little funny.
......
The auction continued, and the woman in red bid almost every time, which led to no one competing with her, completely turning the event into a one-man show for her. God knows what motive she came with.
Soon there was only the last suite left, and I directly quoted a starting price of 1,000 yuan. Sure enough, the woman in red called out another offer of 5,000 yuan, which made the bottom silent, and no one had the passion or courage to compete with her. This made her look very lonely in an invincible state. Without waiting any longer, I began to count down and prepared to finally implement the offer.
"I'll pay 10,000."
Everyone looked back, and then their eyes were all focused on Mi Cai. This time it was the price she offered...
The woman in red seemed to have expected it. She walked to Mi Cai and nodded to her. Mi Cai also smiled at her very friendly, but the competition did not stop because of this kind of friendship. The woman in red directly quoted a price of 20,000 yuan, which was much more fierce than the momentum that was added at 1,000 yuan before.
Mi Cai quickly took on the move and quoted a price of 40,000 yuan. The woman in red quoted a bid of 80,000 yuan. I felt a "swoosh" on my back. This was a rhythm of multiples. As expected, Mi Cai quoted a price of 160,000 yuan.
The woman in red still offered a bid of 320,000 without any pressure, but this time after quoting the price, she attached a few words to Mi Cai's ear. Mi Cai nodded, but did not bid further, and once again helped the woman in red.
I determined the auction price of 320,000 with doubts. The surroundings were already silent, but I just looked at the woman in red, because until the end of the auction, she had already spent nearly 500,000 yuan, which was already an astronomical figure for an impromptu, small charity event.
The event came to an end. Among the 10 rooms prepared this time, 8 rooms were photographed by a woman in red in a strong manner. I invited her to go on stage to express her feelings. Unexpectedly, she made a gesture of invitation to Mi Cai. Mi Cai did not refuse and walked up to the stage from the passage given out from the crowd. So I became even more confused. Judging from their performance, there must have been some consensus just now.
Mi Cai finally walked onto the stage and signaled me to hand the microphone to her. I was stunned for a moment before handing the microphone to her.
Mi Cai said in a calm tone as always: "I think everyone must be curious about why I didn't continue to follow the price..."
Everyone nodded, indicating that they were indeed confused.
Mi Cai said sincerely: "I did have the intention to continue to follow the price just now..." As he said, he paused, looked at the woman in red and continued: "But this lady persuaded me, to be precise, it was not to persuade me, but to ask for cooperation... I believe that no one who came to participate in this event at this time was really interested in these guest rooms, and just wanted to contribute some of their own strength for charity, but the auction form formed a constraint. In the end, only a very small number of people could contribute to charity activities, so the activity itself was imperfect..."
Everyone nodded and agreed, but I was a little sweaty. The woman in red had a weird mind. No wonder she took 8 rooms by herself and spent 500,000 yuan in the end, just to show that the activity was not perfect enough...
After everyone calmed down, Mi Cai continued: "So we just reached a consensus that the bid price of 160,000 that I finally called out will still be donated to this event. It can not only contribute to those in need, but also not make this event change its flavor, as if it has become a show that a few people compete with each other... Here I also suggest that the organizers of the event can come up with better activity plans when the next event is held, so that more people can participate and make charity a charity worthy of their reputation..."
After Mi Cai finished speaking, Zhou Zhaokun, who had been watching in the audience, nodded in agreement, and was the first to applaud Mi Cai. Then the thunderous applause resounded throughout the audience. He was ashamed of me, the organizer of the event. In fact, Zhou Zhaokun had expressed some opinions on the auction format before. It was only because the preparations for this event were still hastily, that this link was preserved. However, under the encouragement of Mi Cai and the woman in red, there must be changes next time... After thinking through these, I also applauded everyone, thanked the woman in red, and humbly accepted her suggestions.
At this time, the woman in red also came to the stage, stood beside Mi Cai and took out a business card from her pocket and handed it to her and said, "I'm glad to have the opportunity to meet a like-minded friend."
Mi Cai took the business card she handed over, and then handed her her business card, saying, "So too."
At this time, I couldn't help but admire the wisdom of the woman in red. She actually met Mi Cai in business through this mutually affection. At this time, I also believe that she really has the idea of investing in Zhuomei. Maybe she will have a business communication with Mi Cai in the near future. This is a joy that I gained inadvertently. I also hope that Mi Cai can give up her last expectation for Weiran, come up with an operational cooperation plan, and then reach a cooperation with Tianyang Group of the woman in red, so as to liberate Zhuomei, liberate me, and liberate myself.
......
After the event, I handed over eight room cards to the woman in red and had a brief exchange with her. I joked and asked her: "What should I do if you are going to do the room you took this photo? I won't stay in one in the middle of the night, and change one in the middle of the night. I have to change another in the morning, right?"
"Only people as bored as you have such boring ideas!"
I smiled and replied, "Yes, I am just a person who relies on boredom to find fun... But don't you think you're spending 500,000 too casually?"
The woman in red asked back: "Whatever?...Our group will donate nearly 10 million yuan in funds every year to social welfare institutions. God knows whose pockets the money ends up falling into. When you spend it, I can at least see that it is really used to help some disadvantaged groups in society!"
"Then give me all the funds for social welfare in your group in the future. After all, I am such an upright person and will not be able to fill my personal pockets!"
"Get out, if our group is as big as a group, if it doesn't give out some funds to those welfare institutions every year, will the government be able to pass the custody?"
I pointed to the woman in red and sighed: "You are such a businessman!"
"Stay going to get out of here... Is the money I spent on you not money? It is also for the purpose of interest?"
"That's not!"
The woman in red glared at me, as if she had lost the desire to continue chatting with me, turned around and walked around the building...I finally shouted to her: "When are you going to chat with Micai?"
“When it’s right.”
The answer from this standard businessman made me feel her business wisdom and was thinking in my heart what kind of benefits Zhuomei could bring to this smart businessman at this stage, otherwise the so-called capital injection was still just my wishful thinking.
......
The charity event has ended for two days, and it has been two days since Le Yao completely left my life. Although we often didn’t contact each other for a week or even longer before, this two days made me feel very uncomfortable. Sometimes I would habitually open WeChat to refresh my friend’s news and want to follow her latest news, but suddenly I realized that I had been put on the blacklist by her, and then I lit a cigarette sadly, forcing myself not to think about everything about her. After all, we have already made an agreement that “will be in no time later”, and I have always been a person who keeps my promises…
It was another busy night. I was lying alone in bed smoking and drinking tea, but the door of the house was suddenly opened by the boy and said to me panting: "Brother Yang, Sister Le Yao is on the headlines of the entertainment version this time!"
I tried my best to calm myself before I cut off the cigarette butt and replied, "Hasn't she been making headlines recently? What's there to make a fuss about?"
"This time it's different. Do you know she had a first boyfriend in college?"
"I heard from her..."
The boy said angrily: "This second-rate male star is so shameless. Seeing that Sister Le Yao has become a big name now, I started to use Sister Le Yao to hype myself. Take this newspaper and take a look!"
