The charity auction was held in a private villa on the outskirts of the city.
Although it is a villa, in terms of the scale of decoration, it is no different from a manor. It covers a huge area and is said to be worth 2 billion!
Xiao Yun couldn't help but have a strong interest in the man behind the auction.
After all, the other party is from Beijing, but he can spend a lot of money to buy a villa in Zhongyang and leave it idle, which shows his amazing financial resources!
After entering the villa, Xiao Yun became more and more certain that the identity of the organizer behind the scenes was extraordinary.
Because almost all the celebrities and bigwigs from the southern provinces and cities rushed to the scene, with thousands of people participating in the auction!
Some people, like Xiao Yun and Chi Hong, got invitations through connections, while others racked their brains to get in.
In the villa, in addition to the numerous guests, there were also many waiters who were waiting respectfully, staff directing the reception, security personnel maintaining order, etc. The whole scene was very lively.
Originally, Xiao Yun thought that the private reception held by Zhou Lixin was luxurious enough, but compared with today's auction, it actually seemed a bit shabby!
"Ms. Lin, Mr. Xiao, please come in!" The waiter at the door said with a smile after checking the invitation.
"Welcome, welcome."
A graceful and elegant young man made a "please" gesture with a smile, welcomed Xiao Yun and his party in, and then greeted the guests behind again.
Xiao Yun turned around and looked the other person up and down. Seeing that the other person was probably about the same age as himself, he curiously whispered to Lin Xueer: "He is the organizer of tonight's charity auction? He is young and has a lot of promise."
"
Lin Xueer smiled faintly and said: "His name is Huo Shaosi, and the organizer is his father Huo Lianfeng. Decades ago, the older generation of the Huo family produced several great heroes who fought against Japanese pirates!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yun was in awe: "So awesome!"
"Yes, the level of the Huo family is far beyond that of ordinary families." Lin Xueer blinked her big eyes and said, "I heard that this time the Huo family came to Zhongyang, in addition to organizing charity
In addition to raising funds through the auction, I also want to expand the group's business in the southern region."
Xiao Yun glanced at her and joked: "Don't we, President Lin, intend to fight for this opportunity?"
When Bai Tang mentioned this auction before, Lin Xueer's reaction seemed to be that she had no interest in attending. If Xiao Yun hadn't taken the initiative to take a look, she probably wouldn't have been prepared to attend.
Currently, among the four major families in Jiangzhou Province, the development of the Lin family is the least ideal. Logically speaking, Lin Xueer knew that the Huo family was interested in recruiting partners in the south, so she should have seized this opportunity.
But now it seems that the Lin family has no such plan.
Hearing Xiao Yun's question, Lin Xueer's eyes flashed with a hint of imperceptible helplessness, she smiled faintly and said: "Given the current situation of our Lin family, the Huo family will definitely look down on cooperation with us.
"
After saying this, she raised her eyes and glanced around at the guests present today, and the helplessness in her eyes became even worse.
The charity auction held by the Huo family tonight was extremely grand and grand. More people came than she expected, and they were all celebrities and powerful people. Taking a casual glance at the crowd, she discovered several top celebrities from other provinces.
family.
Compared with the deteriorating Lin family, the advantages of these big families are not even remotely strong. How could the Huo family leave the opportunity to the Lin family?
It’s not that Lin Xueer doesn’t want to fight for this opportunity, but the current Lin family has no capital at all!
"Wow! Look, look, look! Isn't that the chairman of Shengda Group? I've seen him on the financial channel before, and I heard that his net worth now exceeds tens of billions!"
At this moment, Yuan Qi, who was following Xiao Yun, suddenly pointed at a middle-aged man not far away with excitement and shouted.
"Oh my God! There is also the young owner of Dingli Group! Oh my god, he is a real estate tycoon! I heard that he has a collection of more than 200 supercars at home! They are all limited editions! I guess there is no one in China who can compare with him.
Got past him..."
Yuan Qi looked like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, with her mouth wide open and her face full of shock and excitement. She looked here and there, attracting disdainful looks from many people.
"Ahem, Yuan Qi, calm down and don't act like you've never seen the world!" Jin Ling, who was standing next to her, blushed for a while and rolled her eyes angrily.
Hearing this, Yuan Qi realized her gaffe and hurriedly closed her mouth and smiled awkwardly, but her eyes still kept glancing excitedly.
However.
After taking just two steps, Yuan Qi couldn't help but exclaimed, touched Jin Ling's arm, pointed in front of her and said, "I'll go! Sister Jin, look over there! Is there v on the table?"
Dessert?”
"I ate it last time when the crew had a dinner together. The director flew it over from France. I heard that a small box costs tens of thousands! It's like a buffet here... Oh my god, the desserts alone here are probably
Is it worth a few million?"
Hearing this, a look of astonishment flashed across the faces of several artists. No one expected that this auction would be so luxurious!
Even the small desserts are so expensive, not to mention the other food and champagne on the table.
This is not eating, it is simply eating gold!
Although Jin Ling is now quite popular and has participated in many banquets, this was her first time seeing a big event like tonight, so she was shocked when she heard what Yuan Qi said.
However, Jin Ling had to be more steady after all. Although she was surprised in her heart, her face quickly returned to normal, and she acted calmly.
Today Mr. Xiao gave several of their artists the opportunity to show their faces. If she behaves like Yuan Qi and makes a fuss, she will definitely embarrass Mr. Xiao!
"Okay! Yuan Qi, can you stop being so startled?" Jin Ling glared at her angrily and muttered: "You are about the same age as Li Feifei, why haven't you seen her as unreserved as you?"
Being scolded by Jin Ling again, Yuan Qi curled her lips, a little unconvinced, glanced at Li Feifei, and whispered in a low voice: "Why is she so reserved? She is obviously scared..."
Hearing this, Li Feifei's little face suddenly turned red.
Yuan Qi was right. She was indeed frightened by this luxurious scene. If she hadn't been holding Chi Hong's arm, she would probably have lost her legs.
Li Feifei glanced at Xiao Yun cautiously and secretly looked at his expression, as if she was afraid that he would think she was a bumpkin after listening to Yuan Qi's words.
However, what Li Feifei definitely didn't expect was that even though Xiao Yun looked as calm as an old dog, he was actually filled with surprise in his heart.
After all, he had not attended a few banquets before this. The most spectacular one he had ever witnessed was the last private reception at the Zhou Manor.
It's just that Xiao Yun was very calm and didn't show the slightest bit of surprise on his face.
