Chapter 580 of The Journey Starting from the Siheyuan sold a total of 285.6 billion
Wang Lidong, who was sitting below, also breathed a sigh of relief.
He was quite satisfied with the price.
In the past month or so, a total of 18 extraordinary dishes have appeared in dozens of restaurants owned by Gray Whale. However, after more than a month, diners who have eaten have found no other abnormalities other than phantoms.
He knew that if nothing else happened, Wanwan’s price would be the ceiling.
Unexpectedly, it could fetch 5.5 billion, which was almost three times the original starting price. It was a very good start.
On the auction stage, Qiao Qian immediately started the second auction.
"The following is the auction for the agency rights of Japanese cuisine in Guizhou Province. The starting price is 1.8 billion Sihai coins per year. Each increase in price shall not be less than 100 million yuan. The auction begins!"
There are a total of 34 administrative districts in the whole world. There are 3 cuisines in this auction, Western food, Japanese food and Middle Eastern food. The total number of items is 100.
The auction sequence starts with the western provinces, and will be interspersed with several central and coastal provinces, followed by the central and coastal provinces, and the grand finale, Beijing and Guangdong Province.
[To tell you the truth, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with more sounds.
In less than 3 hours, the entire auction came to an end.
As expected, the prices in the provinces and cities to the north are not high. Most of the transactions are completed after adding a few additions to the base price.
The starting price of the three Beijing cuisines together was 5 billion, and the total transaction price was only 5.8 billion...
In contrast, the competition in the Yangtze River Delta and the South is quite fierce, especially the agency rights for three cuisines in Guangdong Province, which were the last resort, were snatched up by the three giants Goose Factory, Ship Captain, and Anping Insurance, and were eventually sold for 46.3 billion.
More than 3 times more than the reserve price.
The agency rights of all provinces and cities across the country were auctioned for a total of 285.6 billion!
Wang Lidong slapped his head and almost forgot that he also had the Wanwan agency rights that had been sold long ago for 22.5 billion a year, totaling 308.1 billion Sihai coins!
"Kacha, Kacha..." A large flash of light came on, and Wang Lidong hurriedly reached out to block it.
"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang, congratulations on becoming the richest man in the Sihai Kingdom!"
"Mr. Jiang, as the new richest man, how do you feel now?"
"Mr. Jiang, are you right..."
A large group of reporters surrounded Wang Lidong, trying their best to push the microphone in front of him, like a refugee who had been hungry for two days, holding an empty bowl to receive vegetable porridge for fear that it would be gone later.
Wang Lidong slapped away a microphone that was about to poke his mouth: "I'm not the richest man. The richest man is Mr. Wang from Wanda."
A female reporter recently said: "Mr. Jiang, just now the national agency rights of 'Super Chef' were sold for 285.6 billion... plus... a curved 112.5 billion, a total of... 400 billion, Jiang's Group
It is a wholly-owned company owned by your family, and its net worth is almost double that of this year’s richest man, Da Lao Wang, who is worth 2,200 yuan!”
How can one calculate one's worth by just talking nonsense?
He didn't believe that these reporters didn't check Jiang's situation before coming.
I am really afraid that the news is not exciting enough and has no bottom line and moral integrity!
Wang Lidong retreated, and within a few minutes, the company's large troops came over.
After many security personnel surrounded the reporters, he said:
"Time is limited, I will select 3 reporters and each will ask a question.
Let me first answer the question from the female reporter just now.
First of all, 90% of the proceeds from today’s auction will be given to the ‘Super Chef’ licensor, EC Company.
There is also a curved 112.5 billion Sihai coins, which is a total of 5 years of agency rights, 22.5 billion per year, so the total agency fee next year is 308.1 billion.
Calculated, our Jiang Group's revenue is only 30 billion, which is not even a fraction of a cent behind Big Lao Wang's net worth.
So don’t put the title of richest man in the world on my head.
It’s too heavy and I can’t bear it!”
I ordered a man with glasses who was more pleasing to my eye. The reporter with glasses happily squeezed to the front, handed over the microphone and asked:
"Mr. Jiang, you just talked about the 9ec company that earned this income. What kind of company is it? Can you introduce it in detail?"
Looking at the station logo on the male reporter's microphone, Wang Lidong smiled and said: "My understanding of this company is not much better than the information on the Internet.
To be honest, I have never been to the office of this company. When I signed the licensing agreement, I was in an ordinary tea restaurant in Hong Kong."
The male reporter from Hong Kong Weekly continued to ask: "Mr. Jiang, how dare you... if you have never been to the company..."
Wang Lidong waved his hand and interrupted: "Each person is limited to one question, and there are 2 places left..."
The reporters all raised their hands. Wang Lidong scanned the circle and saw that none of those who came today were very good. He was about to point out the climate of any one when his eyes suddenly lit up and he pointed at the row of people at the back who were jumping with their hands raised.
The girl said: "It's just you, the one wearing a white down jacket."
"Make it, give it," the girl in white hurried to the front and asked, "Hello, Mr. Jiang, I am a reporter from Pearl TV.
Why didn't "Super Chef" launch "Four Sea Cuisine"? Will it be launched in the future? If so, when is it expected to be launched?"
Seeing the expectation in the girl's eyes, she must be a foodie, Wang Lidong smiled and said:
"The cooking process of Sihai Cuisine is too complicated, so erC is still developing related programs and will definitely launch a Sihai Cuisine series in the future.
As for the time, as soon as I receive the news, it will be posted on the official website of our Jiang Group."
In the disappointed eyes of the little beauty, Wang Lidong clicked on the last spot, answered three questions, and was escorted by bodyguards into the thank-you banquet hall.

Cloud restaurant chef
Since the restaurant was being renovated, Jiang Lai originally planned to give all employees a holiday during this period, but Lu Yuan refused to do so in the kitchen.
This group of people is already loose, and if they are let loose like this, they will definitely go crazy, and if they become wild-minded, it will take a lot of effort to clean them up.
So every day, these bastards are asked to clock in as usual, and when they arrive, they collectively research new dishes and formulate the menu for the opening.
It was fine for the first two days, but then I found out that Lu Yuan was busy wandering around in front all day, so I got mad.
Some people play poker, some brag about it, and there are a few people who play games online.
Xiao Cai was assigned a task by Lu Yuan to watch the live broadcast of the auction.
"Damn it, manager Jiang has become the richest man in the world!"
"Really?!" In an instant, Xiao Cai was crowded with fat-headed men...
The live broadcast of a reporter interviewing Jiang Haokun is playing on the phone...
“400 billion!
How many lifetimes will this damn thing last?..."
"How much do you think our Manager Jiang can get?"
"When Pearl people divide their family property, their sons and daughters seem to be divided in half..."
"Half and half is 200 billion..."
Thinking of the way this eldest lady is completely devoted to Lu Yuan... she is envious, jealous and hateful...
...
"Hey, it's not 400 billion, Jiang Haokun said it's only 30 billion..."
"What the f*ck are you doing!" A loud roar echoed through the entire kitchen. Seeing it was Lu Yuan, everyone subconsciously stood up. The fat man shrank his belly to show respect for the chef.
"Pah!...Pah!...Pah!" Every time a person passed by, Lu Yuan would give a slap on the head: "It's been almost half a month, and I have researched a new dish. There is also a menu, it's all there.
It's going to open in 10 days, where is it?!"
Arriving in front of Xiao Cai, "Bah!" and hitting the guy's head twice: "It's you again. Every time I come in, you are the one with the most people around you!"
Xiao Cai said aggrievedly: "Chef, you let me watch the live broadcast!"
"Pah!" Lu Yuan slapped the guy again, "You're tough! I asked you to watch the live broadcast, but you won't find a corner to stay in."
"By the way, how many provinces did Jiang Lai take pictures of?"
"2. Agency rights for Western food in Hong Kong and Xijiang Province."
