Lu Fei paid his respects to Mr. Wang, but what he received in return was a cold snort and a big eye roll.
Lu Fei was terribly embarrassed, but couldn't explain it, so he had to return to his seat angrily.
Murray arranged, of course, the middle position in the front row.
Lu Feinina sat in the middle, with Murray Longyun and others crowding on both sides, looking very impressive.
The auction started in five minutes, and several people started chatting quietly.
"Lu Fei, Mr. Wang Zhenbang seems to be in a bad mood today."
"Is it because I misunderstood you?"
"How about I explain it to you?" Nina said with a smile.
"There's nothing to explain."
"Besides, you are just my female companion, and nothing shameful happened between us."
"I am aboveboard." Lu Fei said.
"Grrrr!"
"why are you laughing?"
"I would like to have something happen with you. I wonder if Boss Lu will give me a chance?"
Nina's charming teasing made Lu Fei's skin crawl, and Long Yun next to him felt uncomfortable all over.
"What, are you scared?"
"You promised me to give you a massage yesterday. You won't keep your promise, right?" Nina said in pursuit of victory.
Damn it!
This girl is really powerful, she must have been the reincarnation of a nine-tailed vixen in her previous life.
It’s really unbearable!
Lu Fei chuckled.
"I have nothing to be afraid of. Even if it is a massage, it is an aboveboard massage."
"I have a clear conscience."
"Giggle!"
"What a clear conscience. This little girl really admires Boss Lu so much!"
"Since Boss Lu is not afraid of rumors, let's make an agreement. Come to my place tonight and I will give you a massage."
Nina's smile was as bright as a flower, and she leaned closer to Lu Fei intentionally, her eyes full of teasing.
No, it's not just teasing, it's more of a provocation.
That means, let’s see if you dare! >
Lu Fei didn't care at all and said with a smile.
"sure!"
"But it's not convenient to go to your place."
"You come with me tonight, I happen to have a masseur there."
"I want to see which one of you two is better at craftsmanship."
After Lu Fei finished speaking, Nina was slightly stunned.
"Why, you don't dare to go?" Lu Fei challenged.
"I'll just go, I'm afraid you won't eat me!" Nina said stubbornly.
"good!"
"Then let's make a deal!"
"good!"
The two people's voices were not loud, but they were clearly heard by Long Yun and Wade next to them.
Long Yun chuckled and said to the pony next to him.
"Brother, come with me tonight. I have a good show for you."
Xiao Ma didn't know why and was slightly stunned.
"forget it!"
"I have to be with Brother Fei, and I want to protect Brother Fei's safety."
"Depend on!"
"Why are you so arrogant?"
"Brother Fei has plans tonight, do you need the protection of your light bulb?"
"Hey, you're still a child, are you?"
"Don't even understand this?"
Murray and others laughed when they heard this, and Xiao Ma suddenly understood.
"oh!"
"I remembered, I happened to have something to discuss with Brother Long tonight."
"Well, Brother Fei, I'll ask you for a leave tonight, can you live at Brother Long's place?" Xiao Ma said with a smile.
"roll!"
“Where does love go?”
"Hahaha."
Following the same pattern, Long Yun instigated Tianbao again.
Tianbao said with a smile.
"Brother Long, don't say anything. I understand everything."
"But I can't go with you. If my wife finds out, she'll have to take my skin off."
"Brother Fei, you don't have to worry about me."
"I get sleepy when I'm next to the bed. Even if I'm asleep, I can't hear thunder."
"Hahaha"
Everyone laughed, Lu Fei rolled his eyes, but Nina's face turned red with embarrassment.
While we were talking, the time came to seven o'clock in the evening.
Mr. Peter, Ristone's special auctioneer, came to the stage and bowed to salute.
"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening."
“Welcome everyone to this year’s Ristone Auction!”
Wow
Thunderous applause broke out, and Peter continued.
"Our dedicated auction was originally scheduled for mid-April."
"But due to some special reasons, it was delayed until today."
“Despite the delay, the quality of the auction items is even higher than before.”
"I hope everyone can get their favorite collection tonight."
"I also wish everyone happiness."
Applause rang out again, and Lu Fei whispered in Murray's ear.
"Murray, why didn't the waiter deliver the auction brochure?"
"hehe!"
"What you don't know is that Ristone Auction never prepares an auction manual."
"This is also one of their major features, giving everyone a strong sense of mystery."
"Every year during publicity, we only select one or two symbolic items for promotion, and keep everything else confidential."
"The answer will not be announced until the moment the auction goes up. This will give people a particularly amazing feeling and can better enhance the atmosphere."
"However, this trick can only be used by auction companies like Rui Stone."
r>
"Their company has an excellent reputation over the past century. Every auction is of high quality and has an excellent reputation."
"That's why they dare to do this."
"If it were an ordinary auction company and they didn't announce the auction items in advance, it would be hard for people to believe it."
"So, their success is also based on a century-old good reputation."
"On the other hand, your Tengfei Auction Company, the two auctions will amaze the world. You can also follow this model."
"The effect is definitely much better than the hype," Murray said.
Lu Fei carefully savored Murray's words and found them very reasonable.
Everyone knows that the products auctioned by Ristone are all high-quality products, and there will be no doubts about the items they prepare.
In this case, opening a blind box on the spot is indeed a refreshing surprise.
good!
This marketing model may be something that your own auction company can really learn from.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in order not to waste your precious time, the auction will begin immediately."
"Now, let me introduce the rules of tonight's auction."
"Our trading currency is GBP."
“Every item put up for auction has a guaranteed price that we estimate.”
"If the transaction is completed below the guaranteed price, we will not charge a penny of commission."
"If the price is higher than the guaranteed price, our company will charge a commission of 23%."
Twenty-three percent commission.
Good guy, this number really shocked Lu Fei.
Lu Fei also participated in many auctions.
The commissions of established auction companies with the highest commissions, such as Christie's, Sotheby's, etc., are only 15%, and are generally between 12 and 13%.
Rui Stone dared to ask for a commission of 23%. He was really cruel!
No wonder they only hold one auction a year.
With such a high commission, there is absolutely no problem if you can take it for a year at a time!
