In Lu Shuhang's eyes, Li Siwen had always been humble and courteous, mature and steady in his work. He not only had a superb business acumen, but also had an astonishing view of the overall situation.
But the closer he got, the more he felt that his evaluation was too superficial and that Li Siwen was far more complicated than he thought.
The opponent's body seems to contain some kind of mysterious power, and he always makes some choices that go against common sense. Even the well-informed Lu Shuhang is always shocked and stunned.
When Jiang Zhentao was forced to kneel down in the hospital, now he didn't take Lu Ming, the richest man in Caozhou, seriously. Anyone who works hard in a shopping mall knows how to be a good person, but Li Siwen often does the opposite.
Is it based on whim? Or impulsive?
Lu Shuhang couldn't see through it. He only knew that he had a strong interest in Li Siwen. He wanted to see this young man go on, but he also looked forward to the day when he "falls".
Lu Shuhang's thoughts were normal. After all, he didn't know that Li Siwen was reborn.
A capital tycoon who was once worth tens of billions has long seen through the falsehoods in the business world and is even more tired of the ways of this circle.
Therefore, in this life, whether he makes friends or does things, he will mostly do things according to his own heart. To put it bluntly, he will do whatever he wants. He will put his feelings and conscience first, instead of compromising at the foot of interests like in his previous life.
"Dear guests and friends, welcome everyone to participate in this fundraising event organized by the Propaganda Department of the Caozhou Municipal Party Committee and the Cultural Bureau. The theme of this event is Let Love Go Forward..."
A host in a formal dress stood on the podium directly in front and began to introduce the event, and everyone chatting began to take their seats one by one.
"Editor Lu, Deputy City Manager Sun has arranged a seat for you, in front." A bespectacled man wearing a tie said politely to Lu Shuhang.
"Secretary Liu, tell Deputy City Sun that I can sit in the back with this little friend today." After Lu Shuhang finished speaking, he waved his hand.
"Okay." Secretary Liu said and left.
At this time, Lu Shuhang smiled and said to Li Siwen: "Let's go, let's sit in the back."
"It seems that this position is also very particular!" Li Siwen muttered.
"Of course, those sitting in front, in addition to city cadres, are leaders of some of the city's pillar industries, directors of electronics factories, CEOs of chemical plants, directors of grain and oil bureaus, directors of fertilizer plants, and directors of steel plants.
Wait a minute..."
Li Siwen knew that most of the so-called pillar industries were state-owned enterprises. After all, in this era, the privatization of state-owned enterprises was not yet complete. It was difficult to enter this circle without a background. This also created the corruption and decline of state-owned enterprises. Until 1994, the depth of state-owned enterprises
Only through reform did some of the moths get eliminated.
Of course, before the reform, these things were pretty awesome, no matter what they looked like.
"Next, let's ask our Vice Mayor Sun to speak..."
The host's voice came, and Sun Luochun stepped onto the podium, took the microphone and started a new round of talk.
Ten minutes later, Sun Luochun invited Lu Ming up. Lu Ming was a representative of a private company, so naturally he had some clichés.
Li Siwen almost fell asleep. After watching the sun slanting in from outside, the charity auction officially started.
"I take the lead in making donations every time, and today is no exception." Lu Ming stood on the podium and ordered his subordinates to bring up a box, and then he took out a fist-sized porcelain bowl from the box.
After seeing Lu Ming's things, everyone immediately became interested, and some people even stood up from their seats.
"Dear friends, this is a blue and white porcelain bowl from the Qing Dynasty that I bought from an old friend a few years ago. Let Mr. Yan check the specific value!" After Lu Ming finished speaking, he saw a man with white hair.
The old man walked up to the podium with a smile on his face. As soon as he came on stage, he joked: "There is no need for me to see Boss Lu's things, right?"
"Mr. Yan is very knowledgeable, so let me introduce him to you," Lu Ming said politely.
Mr. Yan nodded and took the porcelain bowl and looked at it.
"This Mr. Yan is the curator here, and he is very good at appraising antiques." Lu Shuhang lowered his voice and said, "In every event, the most donated items are antique calligraphy and paintings. In order to prevent someone from confusing the fake ones with the real ones, we have to invite Yan
Valuation with an old palm’s eye.”
Li Siwen nodded and said in a low voice: "Wouldn't it be embarrassing if it turned out to be fake?"
"This kind of situation is not unheard of, but Mr. Yan won't tell the donor directly. He will only tell the donor that the item is too complicated and he can't tell whether it is true or false, and everyone will understand it tacitly. So usually those who donate antiques will prepare two to
The purpose of the three items is to prevent fakes from appearing. After all, these rich people are not experts, so it is normal to buy fake ones." Lu Shuhang explained.
"It's quite rigorous." Li Siwen smiled.
At this time, Mr. Yan had already put the porcelain bowl back and nodded: "Boss Lu is right. This is a blue and white porcelain bowl from the Qing Dynasty. It comes from Jingdezhen. Not only does it have a rich composition, many layers but not chaos, the glaze is also almost perfect.
Not only can people feel the visual impact, but also people are deeply impressed by this magnificent and heroic artistic inspiration. They say that the blue and white flowers of the Qing Dynasty are a bright and wonderful flower on the cultural stage, and they are indeed well-deserved."
"Authentic, completely authentic." After Mr. Yan finished speaking, he gave a thumbs up.
Lu Ming smiled slightly, showing a very proud look, and then said: "Mr. Yan, please estimate the price!"
"Since it is a fundraising event, our price cannot be too high, maybe two thousand. This is already the extremely low price I gave. If this porcelain bowl enters the market, it will be worth at least ten thousand yuan."
After Mr. Yan finished speaking, there was a burst of exclamation from below, what does ten thousand yuan mean? In this era, it represents a household with ten thousand yuan. It is no exaggeration to say that the assets of this value can exceed 99% of the people in the country.
Even the state-owned enterprise bosses sitting in the first two rows showed a hint of surprise.
"Boss Lu is really generous today!"
"Yeah, I remember he just donated a set of calligraphy in the last session, and the value was much lower than this porcelain bowl."
“This opening is so surprising that people are caught off guard!”
The people below were all talking and praising Lu Ming's strength and courage.
"I really didn't expect Lu Ming to donate such valuable items. It seems that today's charity auction is no longer charity." Lu Shuhang whispered, suddenly looked at Li Siwen and said, "Is it because of your appearance?"
"Am I that scary?" Li Siwen shrugged his shoulders.
"It's not because you're scary, it's just because as soon as you appeared, the event became full of excitement, and everyone must be ready to show their faces." Lu Shuhang pursed his lips and smiled: "I'm even more looking forward to the contest between you and He Yuan.
