At this time, the entrance to the Tianyu Auction Hall was bustling with people. Local media reporters gathered around in circles. Since it was a charity auction, the organizer not only invited celebrities to attend, but also invited all the famous figures in Huadu City.
.
Among them, the richest man Kang Hongwen and other first-class group CEOs were seen arriving in suits. As soon as they got off the car, they were surrounded by a group of media reporters for interviews: "Mr. Kang, whose work are you most looking forward to tonight?"
Facing reporters, Kang Hongwen smiled directly and said: "What I am most looking forward to is Wan Yunting's calligraphy works."
A reporter said: "Mr. Kang, I have heard that you have a good relationship with Mr. Wan, and I have even heard that you have collected his calligraphy works. So will you auction his calligraphy works tonight?"
"certainly."
Kang Hongwen smiled generously and said: "Tonight is a charity auction for public welfare. I am here, so naturally I have to pay for the tickets."
"Haha, Lao Kang is very generous, but I came here tonight for Wan Shuxian's works. Then Lao Kang, don't compete with me."
"That's right, you privately collect Wan Shuxian's works, so don't argue with us tonight. You can take other pictures."
Immediately, several bosses who were with Kang Hongwen started talking to him, telling him not to take action tonight.
"Okay, I heard that Mr. Huangfu, a contemporary master of the Lingnan School of Painting, also contributed a painting. I'll see if I can take a picture of it when I get there."
Kang Hongwen also nodded and said with a smile.
"Mr. Kang is indeed a role model for our business community in Huadu City, and he has contributed to the public welfare of our country..."
Some second-rate group bosses seized the opportunity and slapped Kang Hongwen on the butt in front of the media...
In addition to business tycoons, local literary tycoons and collectors enthusiasts also flocked to the Tianyu Auction Hall. It was originally scheduled to start on time at 8:30, but there were too many people here tonight, so it was postponed to 9 p.m.
Start at o'clock.
Therefore, after hearing that there will be two calligraphy works by Wan Yunting at tonight's auction, many people came from all over the country to participate, just to compete for his calligraphy collection...
Fang Guowen was wearing a Tang suit and a coat. After all, it was a cold night. He was behind the huge guild hall. After discussion with the members of their Literary Association, a total of forty-eight works of art were auctioned tonight!
These forty-eight works of art include calligraphy, painting, jade, porcelain, antiques and other artworks. Some are works by masters in the contemporary art world, and some are antiques collected by individuals. Each one is valuable.
But what attracted the most attention tonight were the two calligraphy works by Wan Yunting and the painting by Huangfu Xueyi, a representative of the Lingnan School of Painting!
"President Fang, Mr. Huangfu has arrived. Let's go out to greet him."
At this time, a member came in and shouted to Fang Guowen, who was arranging things.
"Here he is, let's pick him up..."
Fang Guowen called to the members of the Literary Association who were present, and they all stood up and headed outside...
At the entrance of the auction hall, a car slowly stopped. Huangfu Hongfang opened the door first, and then he bent down and respectfully welcomed an eighty-year-old man out of the car. He was wearing a gray Tang suit.
Wearing a thick coat, the old man has short white hair, a ruddy face, and is full of energy. He is also holding a cane in his hand. He is Huangfu Hongfang's grandfather, Huangfu Xueyi.
"Mr. Huangfu, please slow down..."
In addition to Gao Jiaxu who followed Huangfu Hongfang, Liang Hongda and Wang Fuyi, the vice presidents of the Huadu Literary Association, naturally followed, bowing their heads and helping Huangfu Xueyi down...
Immediately, a group of media reporters swarmed up, surrounded them, and immediately interviewed them: "Mr. Huangfu, can you tell us why you made an exception and came to participate in tonight's charity auction in person?"
"Mr. Huangfu, can you comment on the level of calligraphy works of Wan Yunting and Wan Shuxian, who are very popular in the art world recently?"
... A group of reporters asked various questions, noisily filling the ears of Huangfu Hongfang and Huangfu Xueyi. Gao Jiaxu and Liang Hongda quickly stopped these media reporters. Mr. Huangfu looked calm and did not answer these questions...
Then Fang Guowen and his gang came out one after another, called the security guards, and stopped the disorderly media reporters to prevent them from bumping into the old man. After all, he was old and could not withstand these troubles.
Fang Guowen and his group respectfully invited Huangfu Xueyi to enter the auction hall, and arranged for him to sit in the first row closest to him. Behind them were Kang Hongwen and other business leaders. Even when they saw Huangfu Xueyi, they all
Stand up and shout respectfully: "Mr. Huangfu..."
"Hello everyone…"
Huangfu Xueyi then smiled elegantly and nodded slightly to greet Kang Hongwen and others. This was not because they were big bosses in the business world, but because of Huangfu Xueyi's profound etiquette.
When Kang Hongwen saw Fang Guowen, he hurriedly stopped and asked, "President Fang, why hasn't Yunting come yet?"
Fang Guowen knew that Wan Yunting and Kang Hongwen knew each other, and he also knew that most of the people already sitting in the auction hall came here for Wan Yunting's works, so he said: "Don't worry, Mr. Kang, I will contact you later."
He asked."
"good."
Kang Hongwen nodded, sat down again, and chatted with other friends.
Immediately afterwards, I saw Ling Wei, who was wearing a long black lace dress and a fur coat draped around her shoulders. She was sexy yet elegant, mature yet dignified. She came with Han Duoer and Kuanglong.
Smiled at Kang Hongwen and said hello: "Mr. Kang, you are here too."
"It turns out to be Mr. Ling, please sit down quickly..."
Seeing Ling Wei, Kang Hongwen pointed to the seat next to her, smiled at her and asked, "Master Fu isn't here?"
Ling Wei shook her head slightly and said with a smile: "Master Fu has been feeling unwell recently and cannot come over. Let me take his place."
Kang Hongwen nodded and said with a smile: "Take me back to say hello to Mr. Fu."
"OK."
Ling Wei smiled and nodded, sitting there dignifiedly without saying anything else.
She came here on behalf of Mr. Fu, but she also came here for the man...
At this time, Huangfu Xueyi, who was sitting in the front row, was chatting with a scholar. Huangfu Hongfang, who was sitting next to him, was approached by Gao Jiaxu, who came over and whispered: "Brother Hongfang, can we beat Wan Yunting tonight?"
"
Huangfu Hongfang turned his face and glanced at him, snorted and said: "I invited grandpa here, what do you think?"
"Yes Yes Yes…"
Gao Jiaxu retracted his head, nodded repeatedly and said: "If the old man takes action, he will definitely be the most dazzling protagonist in the audience. Wan Yunting is just a clown who was hyped by those outside. How can he be compared with the old man.
"
Huangfu Hongfang squinted his eyes. Since he knew that Wan Yunting had taken out two calligraphy works to participate in tonight's charity auction, he pestered his grandfather to come over in person, with the purpose of using his grandfather's reputation to overpower Wan Yunting!
"but…"
Gao Jiaxu turned his head, glanced at Kang Hongwen and the business leaders sitting behind him, and said, "I'm afraid that the richest man will drive up the prices of Wan Yunting's works!"
Huangfu Hongfang smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have my own way to deal with it, and I will never let his works fetch a higher price than my grandfather's works!"
Gao Jiaxu nodded with a bad smile, and everything was waiting for the auction to begin...
It is now 8:50, and the auction is about to start in ten minutes. The hall is already full of people, and people are constantly pouring in from outside. This shows how much attention is being paid to this charity auction tonight.
.
Now the entrance of the club is still bustling with people, and countless media reporters are still blocking the door because there is still a protagonist who has not arrived!
Standing on the steps, Han Shumei and Lin Xinlan, wearing dignified and elegant evening dresses tonight, and several other charity organizers are chatting about arrangements for what will happen after the auction starts...
At this time, Han Shumei's cell phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was Wan Yunting's number. She quickly answered the call and asked, "Yunting, why haven't you arrived yet? The auction will start soon."
"Sister Shumei, I'll be there soon, only two minutes left."
At this moment, Wan Yunting was driving towards here in a silver car. He called Han Shumei two minutes in advance. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'm on the steps at the door. You can see me when you come over."
"OK."
Wan Yunting responded, hung up the phone, and after crossing a street, he saw the Tianyu Auction Hall. From a distance, he saw many people gathering at the entrance. It was very lively. Wan Yunting found a parking space and parked his car.
Walk towards the entrance of the hall...
At this moment, most of the guests who came to participate in the auction were present, but the media reporters still did not see Wan Yunting, which made them wonder whether Wan Yunting would come tonight...
Today Wan Yunting was wearing a very ordinary casual outfit. He passed through the entrance of the club and went directly to the steps. Even the media reporters gathered around did not notice his appearance. When he went up the steps, there were sharp-eyed reporters.
Seeing him, I rushed over excitedly: "Mr. Wan, Mr. Wan is here..."
Immediately, other people reacted. Before Wan Yunting could get up, he was blocked in the middle of the steps. Dozens of microphones were placed in front of his mouth, and countless video cameras, cameras, and mobile phones were pointed at his face.
He flashed wildly, causing Wan Yunting to fail to respond. A reporter asked: "Mr. Wan, can you tell us why you participated in tonight's charity auction?"
“Mr. Wan, didn’t you say that if you don’t write works, they will enter the market?
Why did you make an exception and donate two calligraphy works to charity for auction? Can you tell us the reason?"
... All kinds of questions filled his ears. Wan Yunting quickly told them not to fight and grab, so as not to push others down the steps. He said: "Everyone, don't ask why, everything is for the public good. Okay,
The auction is about to begin. I will answer your questions after I come out. Please let me know. Thank you..."
By this time, Han Shumei and Lin Xinlan had already seen him, and immediately asked the security guards to stop the unrelenting media reporters, and successfully dragged Wan Yunting into the club.
Han Shumei breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Yunting, you are so popular now. As soon as the news of your participation in the charity auction came out at noon, it went directly to the hot search list. Especially tonight, most people are rushing to
