Chapter 580 Asia’s Richest Man
A few days later, on the day of the auction, Chen Li finally received the suit sent by the master tailor's assistant.
I have to say~ Although this old British man charges expensive fees, he is indeed a good hand at making clothes.
Even Chen Li, who didn't know much about the quality of suits, could see the difference.
However, this is considered a normal phenomenon. After all, if this old man can make a name for himself in a place like Hong Kong Island, he naturally needs a few brushes.
And despite his age, this old British man is indeed considered a leading figure in the fashion industry. Because he made the suit for a young man like Chen Li, he had to put some thought into the style.
So when Chen Li found a stylist to give him a haircut, and then put on this tailor-made suit that fit him perfectly, both Zhang Ruolan and Mu Xiaoqing's eyes lit up.
As the old saying goes, people rely on clothes, and Buddhas rely on gold!
Before this, Chen Li actually never cared much about his own image.
Of course, a big reason for this is that he established a relationship with Liu Qingqing when he was still in high school before he became successful.
In other words~ Chen Li, a big boy, no longer needs to care about his image in front of the opposite sex when he originally needed to care about it.
In addition, he is a bit handsome himself, so he doesn't need to dress up at all. He only needs to be clean, and the rest is basically as comfortable as possible.
So most of the time, Chen Li definitely wears sandals and slippers in summer, paired with shorts and a T-shirt.
In winter, it is natural to keep warm, such as thermal underwear, sweaters, down jackets, etc.
It's spring and summer~ Due to work reasons, Chen Li actually often wears suits, but because of the comfort, Chen Li rarely wears a tie, and he rarely even wears a shirt.
Unless he is attending some formal occasions, Chen Li will dress a little more formally, but he will not deliberately dress himself up.
Unlike now, Chen Li wore an outfit worth hundreds of thousands, and even spent thousands of Hong Kong dollars to find a stylist to style his hair.
This time, the feeling is completely different.
Not to mention anything else~ Even Mu Xiaoqing's daughter Mu Xiaoxi is holding Chen Li's neck and is unwilling to let go.
After all, even though Mu Xiaoxi is still a child, the pursuit of beauty has nothing to do with age.
Hmm~ Well, it was actually because Chen Li agreed to take Mu Xiaoxi to eat delicious food tonight, but Mu Xiaoqing didn't want Mu Xiaoxi to disturb Chen Li, so he didn't want her to go with him.
So ~ before leaving the house, Mu Xiaoxi hugged Chen Li and refused to let go, fearing that her mother would catch her back.
"Okay~ Just let me take Xiaoxi with me."
"It's okay~ It's a charity auction tonight, it's not a formal auction!"
Seeing that Mu Xiaoqing wanted to come up and take Mu Xiaoxi away, Chen Li waved his hand directly.
Speaking of which, this is the first time that Chen Li has attended such an occasion in his previous life. Logically speaking, he should be more formal.
For example, bring a female companion or something!
Anyway, one invitation can bring two people, and the extra space is actually reserved for the female companion and assistant.
Originally~ Chen Li wanted to bring Mu Xiaoqing to attend, but to be honest, it would be a bit uncomfortable to bring Mu Xiaoqing or Zhang Ruolan to such an occasion.
You think, people usually bring their wives, girlfriends, etc., but Chen Li brought two female assistants to avoid being misunderstood.
Moreover, considering Chen Li's age, neither Mu Xiaoqing's nor Zhang Ruolan's age actually matches him.
So at this time, the young Mu Xiaoxi is the best choice.
Of course, Chen Li can also take no one with him. If that is not possible, he can also let Wang Juan, a security android, go with him.
But in recent days, the relationship between Chen Li and Mu Xiaoxi, a little girl, has been getting along better. This little girl has been clinging to Chen Li every day, so Chen Li finally decided to take the little girl with him.
However, considering that it was difficult for him to take care of Mu Xiaoxi by himself, Chen Li specially brought Wang Juan with him.
Needless to say, the purpose of bringing Wang Juan, a security android, is to be prepared and to help take care of Mu Xiaoxi.
Speaking of which, although Chen Li has a very good relationship with Mu Xiaoxi now, he is not the person Mu Xiaoxi admires the most.
And now the person who can make Mu Xiaoxi obey the most is Wang Juan, who made Mu Xiaoxi a little unhappy because of her large appetite.
As for the reason, of course it’s because of the endless temptations of delicacies presented to Wang Juan, a foodie android, every day.
Yes~ Because Wang Juan saved Mu Xiaoqing and Zhang Ruolan once before, they both respected Wang Juan very much. Mu Xiaoqing even wanted to recognize Wang Juan as her sister!
Therefore, Mu Xiaoqing always tried his best to meet Wang Juan's needs.
Wang Juan, a security android, has a special interest in film and television works and food because of the improvement of AI.
Needless to say about delicious food~ The previous time on the yacht, after Mu Xiaoxi said that Wang Juan had a big appetite and was punished by her mother, Wang Juan liked to take Mu Xiaoxi, a foodie, to enjoy delicious food together.
That’s all~ For children, food is just one of the temptations, and the other temptation is cartoons.
God knows why Wang Juan, a security-type android, enjoys watching cartoons so much!
So ~ with the dual temptation of delicious food and cartoons, Wang Juan has now become Mu Xiaoxi's best friend.
Yes ~ the kind that even Chen Li can't compare to!
As for Mu Xiaoqing, the mother, she is ranked behind Wang Juan and Chen Li.
There is no way ~ Mu Xiaoqing's mother is not a loving mother. In the simple understanding of Mu Xiaoxi, her mother who has always been very strict with her naturally cannot be compared with Wang Juan who always dotes on her.
Compared with Chen Li.
Of course, this understanding is only temporary. When Chen Li leaves and even Wang Juan leaves, the little girl Mu Xiaoxi will naturally understand that her mother is still her mother!
However, Chen Li would naturally not directly break this kind of happy time for children. As for the rest, let her mother have a headache!
After Chen Li spoke again, Mu Xiaoqing thought for a moment and finally agreed.
The main reason is that she has a good understanding of her daughter's personality. Although Mu Xiaoxi grew up in the United States and is somewhat outgoing in personality, overall she is definitely a good and obedient child.
So after five o'clock that afternoon, Chen Li took Mu Xiaoxi and Wang Juan to the hotel where the auction was held.
The auction was held in the banquet hall of the most famous hotel in the port city, and the banquet hall was located on the second floor of the hotel.
When Chen Li led Mu Xiaoxi to the second floor, he met the organizer of the auction.
Although this auction can be regarded as the auction of Liu's private collection, he handed over the auction to an internationally renowned auction house.
After all, there are specialties in the art industry! When it comes to conducting auctions, people from these auction houses are naturally more professional.
When we arrived at the banquet hall on the second floor, staff from the organizer began to inspect the invitations.
Different from what Chen Li imagined, the people checking the invitations were not professional bodyguards in black, but two beautiful staff members in professional attire.
Of course, it is not that there is no security at the door, but they are not responsible for checking the invitations at all.
In addition, there was another thing that surprised Chen Li. After checking the invitation, Chen Li found that no one seemed to be conducting security checks.
To be fair, in Chen Li's opinion, shouldn't such an occasion require a strict security check before entry?
If there is no security, what if some criminals sneak in?
But soon, Chen Li understood why there was no need for security check, because when Chen Li entered the banquet hall, he saw Mr. Liu.
Mr. Liu seems to be very happy today, but this is actually a bit beyond Chen Li's expectation.
According to Chen Li's guess, the reason why boss Liu organized this auction was naturally to collect funds.
After all, under normal circumstances, a wealthy man of Liu's level would definitely not put his collection up for auction unless he had tight funds.
This kind of thing is about the issue of face, not whether the collection is important or not.
And when I think about it, the boss Liu said he wanted to spend several hundred million to go to Nasdaq for fun, so the other party was a little nervous about funds. This is actually a very normal phenomenon.
But at this moment, the boss Liu was smiling broadly, and it didn't look like he was running into a financial problem.
Of course, there is another possibility: out of politeness, after all, he is standing at the door of the banquet hall to greet the guests, and it is natural for him to have a smile on his face.
But what can I say~ Anyway, Chen Li felt that with his current status, he was definitely not worthy of the other party coming to greet him with such a bright smile.
And the facts also prove this.
Boss Liu is indeed here to greet guests, but he is not here to greet Chen Li. To put it mildly, Chen Li just happened to be there at this time.
Because although the smile on Liu's face did not change, he only had a casual conversation with Chen Li and asked his assistant to guide Chen Li and the three of them to the arranged location.
But the top tycoon in Hong Kong City is still standing where he is.
Well, now Chen Li finally understood that he was waiting for someone here, but the person he was waiting for was not him.
As soon as Chen Li sat down, he heard a commotion coming from the door of the banquet hall.
Obviously, a large group of people entered the banquet hall.
And when Chen Li turned his head and looked over, he actually wanted to take a breath of cold air.
Yes~ gasping for air, a plot that often appears in novels, actually generally does not appear in reality.
Just like Chen Li at this moment~ He actually wanted to come up with a sentence directly.
"Fuck me!"
Because at this moment, Chen Li felt that only these two words could express his thoughts, because.
