Chapter 755: Visiting the Queen
"Twenty-one billion dollars?"
Zhou Meng and Lilian looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
The reason why De Gu was asked to make up one billion is to make the acting more realistic. The provincial atmosphere was enhanced, but Theodore stopped playing.
But what Zhou Meng didn't expect was that Theodore couldn't be said to have no brains, he could only be said to be too smart. He thought he had figured out his and Degu's weaknesses, so he dared to increase the price regardless of the cost.
But for Zhou Meng, two billion is enough, and there is no need to go any higher.
"We won't increase the price."
Lilian's soft female voice sounded in the venue.
As soon as these words came out, the auction site was in an uproar.
Theodore's face immediately turned green.
Are you kidding me? You won't go up after calling two billion?
Didn’t the bidding just start?
2.1 billion U.S. dollars, this is not a small amount of money!
He has not yet completely taken over the family business. Although he has a lot of cash, taking out 2.1 billion is enough to make him feel distressed for a while.
"Then I will leave this bag to my subordinates. Then don't blame others for taking the video and uploading it to YouTube or something!"
Although Theodore was anxious, he still refused to admit defeat and wanted to stimulate Zhou Meng and De Gu again.
"It doesn't matter. Thank you Mr. Theodore for your contribution to charity. This bag was bought for me by my assistant. It has been kept at home and has never been used. If Mr. Theodore wants to give it away, of course
It’s also possible.”
Lilian said with a smile.
She was able to reach this status today, so naturally she is not an easy character to talk to.
If it weren't for Zhou Meng, she might still be conceited for a while, but with Zhou Meng and De Gu supporting her, she would naturally not be afraid of Theodore.
He is indeed awesome, but he cannot cover the sky with just one hand.
"Oh, it turns out that this bag has never been used by Lillian, so congratulations to you Theodore, this bag is brand new!"
Degu teased.
Theodore's face turned red.
If getting this thing for 2.1 billion can still humiliate De Gu, even if he feels distressed, he will admit it, but after buying such a thing for 2.1 billion, Lilian has never used it?
At this moment, the auctioneer dropped the hammer, and the bag was finally sold for 2.1 billion.
Theodore is also a face-conscious person. He has already taken pictures of things, and there is no way he will not pay in front of so many people.
In less than five minutes, the bag Lilian used for auction was delivered to his box.
He took it over and saw that the LV label and the white anti-fouling film on the outside were still there.
"grass!"
This time, he completely lost his temper.
Not only has this product not been used, it has not even been opened!
Not only did he lose money this time, he also lost all his people.
"Dr. Jay, I think Theodore is going to be mad to death, right?"
Lilian covered her mouth and smiled.
"This is not enough. Wait until tomorrow morning and then look at his company's stocks."
Zhou Meng said with a smile.
Sniping stocks actually only requires one condition, and that is sufficient cash flow.
Coincidentally, Zhou Meng is the person who is most in need of cash.
Although a person with Theodore's wealth cannot be directly bankrupted, for Zhou Meng, hemiplegia is still no problem.
Lilian smiled and nodded, but she secretly remembered this in her heart.
This can be regarded as inside information about the stock market. After a while, she will go short on Theodore's stock. If the stock price drops sharply tomorrow, she can also make a lot of money from it.
But today's incident can be regarded as a wake-up call for her.
If she participates in similar activities in the future, it is impossible for her to put her personal belongings up for auction. At most, she will auction some collections.
Soon it was Lillian's turn.
"The auction item below is a song [really] by Queen Lillian. The starting price is one hundred thousand dollars. After the auction is completed, the Queen will go on stage to sing this song for everyone."
The auctioneer said with a smile.
"Fifty million!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Meng quoted the price directly.
"Dr. Jay, this is too much."
Lillian waved her hands quickly.
Fifty million US dollars for one song, is this crazy?
If the sky-high price of more than 2 billion for that bag just now was due to vindictiveness, then this 50 million auction price is completely to praise her.
"It's not much. For such a beautiful lady to sing on stage, I should actually give her 100 million."
Zhou Meng smiled.
"Dr. Zhou..."
Lillian's face immediately turned red after being teased by Zhou Meng.
Fifty million for a song, it was impossible for anyone to compete with him, so he quickly settled for fifty million.
Lilian also said something to Zhou Meng, and then went to sing.
I have to say that although Lillian is an actress, her professionalism in singing is not bad at all.
This is actually very rare among celebrities.
After singing the song, there was a series of applause.
Next, various auction items continued to appear, and Zhou Meng was interested in very few of them.
I was still watching it at first, but then I didn’t bother to watch it at all.
A layman like him really couldn't appreciate those paintings by famous artists.
In his opinion, those paintings are not as good as taking pictures of the scenery with a camera and then printing them and hanging them on the wall.
If we really talk about art, the ancient paintings in China must be better. Let’s look at the abstract paintings in foreign countries. What are they?
An auction ended quickly, and almost all the auction items had been auctioned off.
The organizer was even more delighted.
Theodore's US$2.1 billion has completely become the bulk of today's investment. With more than US$2.0 billion, their foundation will no longer be short of funds in the next few years.
In the summary of the meeting, the organizer also specially thanked Theodore, who contributed the most today.
But it was better not to say the words. As soon as he said them, Theodore's already green face suddenly turned greener.
I believe that after today, the fact that he spent 2.1 billion to buy a bag will become a laughing stock in the circle.
"I don't accept it!"
Theodore was so angry that he shouted loudly, attracting everyone's attention.
"Everyone who came to the auction today contributed their own collections. Why didn't Zhou Meng bring out a single thing?"
Chapter completed!
