After listening to Rogers' introduction, the audience immediately burst into warm applause. Many people looked at Rogers with eyes full of appreciation. However, behind this appreciation, there was a touch of arrogance and contempt that Rogers could not see. There was a big crowd at the scene.
In the eyes of most businessmen, Rogers is nothing more than a clown, a tool for them to make profits. He can exist when he has utility value. If he loses his utility value, then these Western businessmen will not hesitate to remove Rogers from the world.
Erase them. No one can affect their interests. Because they are predators in this world.
At 3:00 in the afternoon, in the banquet hall on the 8th floor of the St. John's Hotel, all businessmen from all over the world gathered here, and everyone's eyes were focused on the auction seat in front of them.
At this moment, in the auction seat, Robinson, a white auctioneer, pointed to an electronic map on the big screen behind him and said: "Dear friends, please take a look, this map on the big screen behind me was launched by us.
The first bidding resource. This bidding resource named a1 is a gold mine located in the Duluth area. According to the current preliminary proven gold reserves, it is about 80 tons. It is expected that after detailed exploration, the gold reserves will exceed
100 tons, its value exceeds 3 billion US dollars, the bidding starts below. The reserve price is 30 million US dollars."
After Robinson finished speaking, there was silence.
Qin Feng asked Pierce in a low voice: "Why is the starting price so low?"
Pierce said: "The reason is very simple, because this gold mine is close to the area I am responsible for. Anyone who wants to explore and mine here will inevitably conflict with my interests. I will definitely cause trouble for them, so mining
The cost is very high, especially the cost of maintaining safety, so it is normal for the starting price to be low.
However, since Custer has put this gold mine first in the auction, there must have been a tacit understanding with those Western businessmen long ago, and the transaction will be done at a relatively low price, and this is what I want
This can't be tolerated. Qin Feng, it's up to you."
Qin Feng nodded lightly: "That's no problem."
The scene was silent for more than 20 seconds. Auctioneer Robinson showed an anxious look on his face. At this moment, Qin Feng suddenly raised the bidding card and said: "31 million US dollars."
As soon as these words came out, the scene was in chaos, and everyone looked in the direction of Qin Feng.
When everyone saw clearly that the person who said this was actually a Chinese, many Western businessmen showed anger on their faces.
Because they had already agreed that just when the gold mine was about to be rejected, one of them would buy it for US$30.5 million! This was the lowest price. Because the auction
It is required that each price increase cannot be less than US$500,000.
But now, instead of waiting to compete for agricultural, forestry, animal husbandry and other product resources, a Chinese businessman comes here to compete for strategic resources such as gold mines. He is simply seeking death!
Robinson saw someone bidding, but it was not a Westerner, but a Chinese. His face was a little ugly, because it had also been bought by those Western businessmen.
Therefore, he did not continue.
Qin Feng said coldly: "Auctioneer, is your mouth stuck with tape? I have already made a bid. According to the auction rules, no one has bid for more than one minute. Can we start the auction countdown?
Otherwise, I highly doubt whether you, the auctioneer, can conduct this auction fairly and impartially."
Robinson's expression became even more grim. He glanced at Anderson among the crowd of Western businessmen. Anderson showed no expression at all.
When Wang Zhengfei saw this, he couldn't help being shocked. He didn't expect Qin Feng to dare to participate in the bidding for strategic resources such as gold mines. He secretly sighed that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, but at the same time, Qin Feng pinched him.
But at this moment, seeing Robinson's obvious signs of favoring those Western businessmen, Wang Zhengfei immediately said loudly: "We want to complain to the organizing committee. The auctioneer is simply not qualified for this auction. We ask for a replacement!"
After Wang Zhengfei finished speaking, many businessmen from other parts of the world who had long been dissatisfied with Robinson's style began to make noises, demanding that the auctioneer be changed.
When Robinson saw this, he realized that if he could not preside over the auction fairly, he would most likely be complained by the booing businessmen, and by then he would be in real trouble. Although he knew very well that the Carters official
These Western businessmen both love and hate them, but for the sake of profit, love outweighs hatred, and due to the strength of the Westerners, Carters does not dare to offend these people.
However, businessmen from other parts of the world also have their own demands, and Carters does not dare to completely offend these people, because these people are their capital to check and balance those Western businessmen. Without these people, Carters will be in trouble.
, and they are deeply aware of the greed and shamelessness of these Western businessmen.
Therefore, if these businessmen collectively complain about themselves as the auctioneer, Carters will definitely replace him.
Robinson glanced at Qin Feng with resentment and said coldly: "31 million times!"
"Twice 31 million!"
"31.5 million!" Just when Robinson was about to hit the auction hammer, Anderson's assistant raised the bidding sign.
"31.5 million once!"
"31.5 million twice!"
Robinson shouted very quickly this time, he didn't want to give Qin Feng any chance.
But before he could finish speaking, Qin Feng had already said loudly: "32 million."
Robinson glared at Qin Feng fiercely, waited for 30 seconds, and then said: "32 million times!"
After finishing speaking, he waited for more than 10 seconds before continuing: "32 million twice."
"32.5 million."
Anderson's assistant raised his sign again.
Robinson still quickly started to announce, but was quickly stopped by Qin Feng: "40 million!"
"40.5 million."
"50000000!"
"50.5 million!"
"80 million!"
Qin Feng began to increase the bidding amount by leaps and bounds.
Qin Feng could see that the face of the person bidding against him was getting more and more ugly.
Anderson was so angry that his face was livid. At this moment, the blond foreigner sitting next to Anderson gritted his teeth and said: "Who is this grandson? He is very courageous. He dares to challenge us?"
Anderson snorted coldly and said: "His name is Qin Feng. He is the Chinese guy who won three consecutive games in the ring not long ago."
"He broke the rules, come back and kill him!" The blond foreigner spoke very calmly, as if he had said something insignificant.
Anderson smiled slightly: "As long as Qin Feng leaves the safer area of the St. John's Hotel, he will die."
As Qin Feng continued to raise the price, the voices of those bidding against him became lower and lower. When Qin Feng raised the price to US$200 million, the other party completely withered.
Because the price exceeded the authorization given to him by Anderson.
Although this gold mine is worth more than 3 billion U.S. dollars, for them, it would be uneconomical to acquire this gold mine for more than 200 million U.S. dollars.
Because they want to spend the $200 million in real money, and the mining cost is very high, and the security and maintenance costs are even higher. Without more than 10 times the profit, no one is willing to seek benefits in a chaotic situation like Carters.
of.
After Pierce saw Robinson knocking down the auction water, he smiled and held Qin Feng's hand and said: "Qin Feng, do you want me to thank you, or do you want me to hate you? 200 million US dollars, this price is really not worth it.
Low!"
Qin Feng smiled: "In my opinion, it is not high. Because after you get this land, it is equivalent to expanding your sphere of influence by a full three kilometers. Compared with the gold mine resources, those three kilometers
The sphere of influence is more valuable."
Pierce gave Qin Feng a thumbs up: "It seems you have a very strategic mind."
Qin Feng smiled: "Brother, you may not know the cruelty of competition in our Chinese market. I have done this kind of horse racing for land. If you don't even understand this, how can you stand in front of me?"
Is this place on par with you?"
Pierce gave Qin Feng a thumbs up.
At this time, Robinson announced that Qin Feng had officially won the bid. Afterwards, Qin Feng immediately asked Wu Dekai to go through the relevant handover ceremony and continue to participate in the subsequent bidding.
The target of the second bidding was a diamond mine, covering an area of approximately two square kilometers, and the price was also US$30 million.
After Robinson announced the official start of the bidding, a Western businessman with a mustache immediately held up a sign and said: "$31 million!"
After this person finished bidding, the other Western businessmen were all silent because they knew that the person bidding was the spokesperson of the jewelry giant Beers Company.
These diamonds can only be sold at high enough prices under the Beers Company.
No one wants to offend a jewelry giant like Beers.
Qin Feng's eyes lit up. After Robinson announced the first $31 million, Qin Feng said loudly: "$60 million!"
Qin Feng doubled the price in one breath, showing his determination to win.
The white man with two mustaches stood up and glanced at Qin Feng, who dared to bid with him, with a vicious light in his eyes. He just stood looking at Qin Feng and said, "$61 million."
Qin Feng smiled slightly: "70 million US dollars!"
"$71 million!"
"$80 million!"
Mustache tapped Qin Feng twice with his hand, sat down directly, and did not continue bidding.
Robinson held the auction hammer in his hand, but he was not in a hurry to put it down. Instead, he waited for more than a minute, and when Qin Feng was about to get angry, he said: "$80 million at a time!"
"$80 million twice!"
"make a deal!"
Robinson reluctantly lowered the gavel.
Although the higher the auction price, the higher the commission he can obtain, but for him, the commissions he obtains are much less than the benefits these merchants give him.
Next, Qin Feng won three diamond mines in one breath, and also helped Pierce win three gold mines! He became the injured person who won the most resources in the first half of the bidding at this business conference!
It's time for the half-time tea break.
Wang Zhengfei walked up to Qin Feng and reminded him: "Qin Feng, be careful during the tea break, someone might kill you! This kind of thing has happened before."
At this time, Anderson directly dialed Johnson's phone and said: "Johnson, during the tea break, you can send someone to poison Qin Feng! After the incident is completed, 20 million US dollars!"
"Deal." As the head of Vulture Blood's African region, Johnson is not only responsible for carrying out tasks assigned by Vulture Blood's upper management, but also accepting high-dollar bounty tasks from wealthy businessmen.
