After a Flash Marriage With the Disabled Tyrant - Chapter 52
Yuan Rui immediately turned sideways, blocking Gu Jue’s glance at Shi Yunnan.
With his back to Shi Yunnan, he whispered to Gu Jue with his fierce eyes, “You idiot, don’t try to steal my carrots.”
Shi Yunnan was amused by Yuan Rui, and when he saw his lover’s slightly puzzled eyes, he explained in a low voice what had just happened.
After Luo Lingsheng heard this, his eyes darkened, “Do you need to check them out?”
Shi Yunnan squinted at Gu Jue and Song Miaoke who were in the same row, his eyes changed slightly, he whispered a sentence in Luo Lingsheng’s ear.
Hearing this, Luo Lingsheng quickly sent a message on his mobile phone.
In less than half a minute, Qin Jian in the front row got up, gave them a meaningful look, and then quickly walked out of the field.
At the same time, the host finally sounded the opening welcome sound, and the process of the charity auction was very simple——
The first eight auction exhibits are privately donated to charity dinners by wealthy merchants. They are all relatively small items, and the amount auctioned will be fully used for poverty donations.
The following exhibits are all provided by individual designers or design studios, and the starting price of the auction is drawn up by the former.
The total auction price minus the pre-design cost, and the rest will be donated to charity.
After a brief introduction by the host, a professional auctioneer came on stage.
Because the first eight pieces of jewelry were all small pieces, the starting price was not too high for the guests present, and the auction round after round was fast and smooth.
Then, the follow-up design exhibits brought the atmosphere of the auction to a climax.
Shi Yunnan didn’t have much interest in bidding, but he couldn’t help studying the design elements of each exhibit when it came out, and he could take the initiative to explain it to Luo Lingsheng.
Originally, Luo Lingsheng had no interest in these jewelry auctions, but he liked to listen to Shi Yunnan’s continuous explanations. He was particularly fascinated by the love from his heart.
“Why do you like jewelry design so much?” Luo Lingsheng never asked. He remembered that Shi Yunnan’s college major had nothing to do with this.
“Because my mother liked to collect jewelry when she was alive.”
A glimmer of light flashed in Shi Yunnan’s eyes, and he sighed.
At that time, Wen Min also had a special jewelry cabinet, which carefully collected all kinds of jewelry objects.
Every time she gets a new favorite jewelry, she will temporarily forget her mother’s identity, and carefully match her clothes and makeup with the jewelry and ask: Yibei, Yunnan, does this mother necklace look good?
Wen Min is a lady and a young lady who has been doted on.
The world after her marriage is very simple, with piano music she likes, jewelry, baby twins and her beloved husband.
Unfortunately, fate loves to play tricks on people.
After the Shi Wen family fell apart, they did not take away all Wen Min’s relics.
Later, Xie Wei became the new mistress of the Shi family. When Shi Yunnan returned home from abroad for the first time, he found that the other party was wearing earrings from his mother’s death.
That was the first time he protested against the ‘stepmother’.
However, Xie Wei was used to being eloquent. She wiped her tears in front of Mr. Shi and Shi Sheng and pretended to be innocent. She also took the initiative to return the earrings to Shi Yunan. In the end, he became a childish temper.
Since then, Shi Yunnan’s feelings for this ‘stepmother’ have been reduced to the lowest level.
…
Seeing Luo Lingsheng’s complexion gradually sinking, Shi Yunnan quickly changed the subject with a smile, “I also came into contact with the jewelry design industry by accident, and I tried it out because I was very interested.”
When he first participated in a jewelry design competition, he casually used a pseudonym.
He won the most innovative award in that competition. It was luck and strength. Later, he also received invitations for studio orders and private orders.
Gradually, he developed his own design career.
If it wasn’t for this temporary return to China, he encountered the most important turning point in his life. Maybe Shi Yunnan is still living a design life abroad that is inseparable from day to night.
Yu Shuo in the front row turned to his side, ignoring his long-term friend and aiming at Shi Yunan.
“Mr. Shi, please recommend to me. Which of the exhibits that have not yet been auctioned is more suitable for me to start with? The price doesn’t matter, I can afford it.”
Shi Yunnan had no longer resisted Yu Shuo the night he first met, and after hearing his request, he immediately leaned forward and recommended it to him for a while.
Luo Lingsheng was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at the two people who were ‘hushing each other’, his sour eyes seemed to corrode a hole in the forehead of a long-time friend——
Does this person have any eyesight? Does he have nothing to do with himself?
…
The auction progressed to halftime.
Luo Lingsheng suddenly received a text message from Qin Jian, who had not returned from a trip.
He read the news carefully, and immediately frowned and showed it to Shi Yunnan, “This should be considered an illegal operation in the auction, should I report it to the organizer?”
Shi Yunnan saw the content of the text message clearly, “No wonder Lingyu’s side is so inevitable.”
He raised his eyebrows lightly, “Don’t report it first, what’s the point of reporting it now, the good show hasn’t started yet.”
Luo Lingsheng met his lover’s gaze and immediately understood his intention, “Do you want them to shoot themselves in the foot?”
“Of course.”
Shi Yunnan attached to Luo Lingsheng’s ear, and explained two sentences in a very low voice.
Yuan Rui, who was beside him, couldn’t bear this wholesale of unpaid dog food. He deliberately cleared his throat, “Yunnan, do you want to go to the toilet with me?”
Shi Yunnan, who had just explained the important matter, was speechless for two seconds and looked over like an idiot, “Are you a primary school student? Are you still holding hands when you go to the toilet?”
“no.”
Yuan Rui gestured for the position with his eyes, and intuitively said, “Gu Jue just left, I have to follow him quietly, I’m afraid he will compete maliciously and come up with some tricks.”
Hearing this, Shi Yunnan quickly gave Luo Lingsheng a glance, “I’ll meet him again to add some leverage to the next good show.”
“Ok.”
Luo Lingsheng knew that Shi Yunnan had a measure and a plan, so he didn’t stop it.
Shi Yunnan got up and followed Gu Jue’s direction.
Yuan Rui also heard the ‘unclear’ conversation just now.
“Yunnan, is something wrong? Gu Jue touched our design?” Yuan Rui asked as he walked.
It’s not that he maliciously thinks Gu Jue and Lingyu are too bad, but that the other party has a ‘poaching’ in front of him.
Yuan Ruisheng was afraid that Gu Jue would do something immoral again that would damage their studio for his own sake!
Gu Jue looks dignified on the surface, but he has to be careful!
“It has little to do with our designs for the time being, don’t be nervous.”
Shi Yunnan patted Yuan Rui on the shoulder and pretended to stand on the sink outside the bathroom.
“It’s not that easy to manipulate designs at this kind of auction. If it is exposed, their Lingyu will only be thankful.”
Yuan Rui heard the words and felt slightly relieved.
In less than a minute, Gu Jue walked out from the inside. He saw two people standing in front of the washbasin, approaching, “What a coincidence?”
Yuan Rui snorted, “So unlucky.”
Gu Jue’s fake smile subsided slightly. While pressing the hand sanitizer, he locked Shi Yunan in the mirror tightly, “Mr. Shi, you have no future in Yuanshi, do you want to consider coming to our Lingyu?”
“I can directly promote you to be the director of the design group.”
Shi Yunnan is the only remaining designer member of the Yuan family. Gu Jue doesn’t believe Yuan Rui’s ability, but he still recognizes Lu Zhao’an’s provocative vision.
He wanted to use better conditions to coax Shi Yunnan to come to Lingyu, and then like Yang Sen and others to abandon it and not reuse it.
First, they can attack Yuan Shi and Yuan Rui, and second, they can spar with Shi Yunnan.
When Yuan Rui heard this, he immediately became unhappy, “Gu Jue! Don’t think I dare not hit you! There is no surveillance here!”
Gu Jue likes to watch other people’s emotions out of control, which makes him feel like standing on the top of the gamer.
“Yuan Rui, don’t deny it, you are a dou who can’t be helped. With the Yuan clan in your hands, it will only speed up your death.”
“Our previous generation has been fighting for so long, and we haven’t won or lost. Believe it or not, in less than two years…”
Gu Jue raised his hand and blew at the foam accidentally propped up in his palm, “Yuan Shi is like this foam, and it disappears in the blink of an eye.”
Shi Yunnan let out a low laugh and answered instead of Yuan Rui.
“To tell you the truth, Mr. Gu, I have already invested in Yuanshi Jade Design, and I am a partner and designer, so it is disgusting to accept your superficial skills of ‘digging people’.”
“…”
Gu Jue’s eyes had a trace of renewed anger, and his words became rude, “It seems that Mr. Shi’s vision is not very good, and the works he designed must be a mess.”
To speak quickly, who wouldn’t?
The more Shi Yunan and Yuan Rui refuse to admit defeat, it may mean that they have less confidence in their hearts.
Lingyu was preparing the exhibits for this auction three months in advance. With Shi Yunnan and Yuan Rui’s cramming for a month before and after, what good things could they make?
how is this possible?
Just when Gu Jue secretly despised, Shi Yunnan suddenly approached his ear, “Gu Jue, since you took over the Lingyu Design Department, it has been less than two years since you took over the scourge, and your capital chain has been demolished. wall?”
“…”
Gu Jue only felt that the invisible powerful aura held him in place, and the sharp questioning made it difficult for him to refute for a while.
Yes.
Lingyu jade design used to be a big piece of their Gu family’s fat. The reason why Gu Jue wanted to take this high-level position is actually to pretend to be able to coax all kinds of little lovers.
Because he has no intention to manage and has no design experience, in the past two years, three or four veteran designers have been forced away, and the remaining designers have begun to form gangs and fight against each other in private, and have no interest in creativity and development.
By the time Gu Jue found out, the working capital and sales amount of this independent department could no longer be carried.
If not, how could he be willing to put down his body to participate in this auction? It is also impossible to accept Xie Keyue’s investment so easily.
Of course, he didn’t show anything in front of Xie Keyue.
If at this auction, their design exhibits can attract the rich and the auction price advantage, they should be able to win a lot of private design orders in the future!
Coupled with the use of “charity design” as a publicity stunt, other popular designs under Lingyu should also have another wave of sales growth.
Such a step by step will definitely be able to recover the deficit he lost.
“Lingyu is very good, don’t bother Mr. Shi.” Gu Jue took a half step back and flushed the foam in his hands.
Shi Yunnan’s eyes flashed a dark light, and he changed his low-key style in design work, “Gu Jue, just wait and see!”
His tone was very arrogant, “My design works will definitely fetch the highest price in the auction, and then I will stomp your Lingyu’s design works under my feet.”
This sentence hit Gu Jue’s heart like a big stone, and he looked over——
Shi Yunnan’s eyes showed firmness and confidence, as if he had foreseen a result that had not happened yet.
After saying that, he turned and left.
Seeing this, Yuan Rui slammed his hands wet with water, and the water droplets smashed Gu Jue’s face.
“Yuan Rui! What’s wrong with you!”
“Gu Jue, you’d better sit tight and watch the show! The best thing I’ve done in my life, Yuan Rui, is getting to know Shi Yunnan! His design will definitely amaze the audience!”
“You Lingyu will only do small tricks behind the scenes, I…”
Taking advantage of no one around, Yuan Rui vented and added, “Bah! What the hell!”
He dropped these demeaning words and quickly caught up with his friend who had gone far away.
Gu Jue became more and more angry, and he didn’t even understand – why did Shi Yunnan know about Lingyu’s capital and profit and loss! Can you even say that his works can only be auctioned to the best of the audience?
impossible! Neither!
Gu Jue ravaged the tissue paper used for wiping hands into a mass of rubbish, and felt that he had to increase the stakes to gamble——
For the “X Design” works exhibited in the last auction, he and Lingyu Design must have won the studios of Yuan Shi and Shi Yunnan!
Yuan Rui quickly caught up with his friend and hooked on his shoulder, “Yunnan, I will keep it a secret for you!”
He was grinning, and it was rare that he was not nervous and joking.
Shi Yunan asked, “Secret for what?”
Yuan Rui replied, “You were so close to Gu Jue just now. Wouldn’t Mr. Luo be jealous when he found out?”
Shi Yunnan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Don’t talk nonsense in front of him.”
Yuan Rui patted his chest and assured, “I know, I’m your maiden’s family! If your relationship doesn’t go well, I’m afraid that my career will follow.”
“Yuan Rui, go away.”
…
When the two returned to their seats, the auction for the second half had already begun.
The atmosphere at the venue was very warm, and the No. 18 work was auctioned for 7.6 million, which is the highest price in the audience so far!
Soon, the auction progressed to the last process of the evening – the display and auction of cutting-edge ‘X Design’ works.
Yuan Rui took a deep breath nervously, “Yunnan, it’s our turn.”
“Now, let me reveal work No. 21 for everyone, from…”
The auctioneer got stuck for a moment, but soon returned to its original state, “The ‘Chan Hua’ designed by Lingyu.”
The large screen shows the display of the details of the work, and at the same time, the display cabinet with genuine products is also pushed up by the staff.
Yuan Rui said without reaction at all, “What’s going on? Shouldn’t our works be shown first?”
“Don’t worry, I deliberately asked people to change it temporarily.” Shi Yunan replied in a low voice.
He asked Qin Jian to find an excuse of ‘data error’ and temporarily changed the auction order between them and Lingyu. Because the relationship had little impact, the organizer’s staff easily accommodated.
Yuan Rui was puzzled, “Why?”
Shi Yunan looked specifically at Gu Jue’s direction and said, “Some people who pursue victory too much will pursue the highest point more blindly and impulsive before the final price and result are nothing.”
Yuan Rui was confused, but when he saw that his friend was not nervous at all, he simply suppressed his emotions and waited.
The auctioneer on the stage cleared his throat and immediately started a smooth introduction, “Dear guests, please take a look, this exhibit is a brooch made of diamonds and emeralds, shaped like a sunflower, so it’s named ‘Can Flower’ .”
The petals of the brooch are long strips, which gradually transition from yellow diamonds to colorless diamonds. The transition of the entire color strip is very natural.
The most fascinating is the round jade inlaid with an emerald in the center. The color of the green heart makes people like it from the bottom of my heart.
This brooch is a very bold innovation in jewelry design, because compared with the dazzling dazzling diamonds and the calm texture of jadeite, it is difficult to integrate the two.
But at this moment, under the irradiation of professional lighting, the petals of the brooch emit a nearly golden yellow light, which gradually merges with the light of colorless fine diamonds, just like the rising sun in the morning, bright and not dazzling.
And the emerald emerald in its center, the quality and luster, even for laymen, are among the top greens!
For a while, several wealthy and wealthy women around them exclaimed, “It’s so beautiful!”
“Is this brooch too delicate?”
“What’s the starting price? Husband, I like this one!”
Gu Jue heard the continuous sighs and love from the surroundings, and there was a little more confidence in his heart.
He looked at the three or four position numbers in the fifth row and the fifth row respectively, especially looking forward to the next development.
“No. 21, a private collection designed by Lingyu, the starting price is 4.5 million, and the bottom line will increase by 100,000! The bidding will officially start now!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a guest sitting in the fifth row raised his auction number plate, “Number 35, five million!”
500,000 at a time.
Yuan Rui froze for a moment when he heard the number.
Shi Yunnan and Luo Lingsheng, who were sitting next to him, looked at each other and watched the play knowingly.
The next second, another six rows of guests raised their placards and shouted, “5.2 million!”
“Okay, Mr. No. 06, the price is increased to 5.2 million, is there anyone else?” As soon as the auctioneer asked, another lady immediately raised her hand to increase the price.
Auctioneers will especially exaggerate the bidding atmosphere.
In less than three minutes, the auction price for this brooch had soared to seven million, and the most aggressive bidder was the guest No. 35 sitting in the fifth row.
Secondly, there is guest No. 06 sitting in the sixth row.
“Seven million once, is anyone else raising the price?” the auctioneer looked around and shouted.
Suddenly, a familiar voice in the front row said, “Number 14, 7.7 million!”
All of a sudden, it refreshed the highest price of the auction tonight!
Gu Jue, who was sitting in the seat, instantly brightened his eyes, revealing the long-lost winner’s smile.
Yuan Rui’s line of sight immediately chased after him, but he almost jumped up in shock after seeing the face of the other party.
He looked at Shi Yunnan and Luo Lingsheng in disbelief, and asked in a low voice, “Yunnan, what’s going on? Isn’t that Assistant Qin from Mr. Luo? Why did he go to shoot our design work for the opposite house!”
The person who called out the bidding price of ‘7.7 million’ was Qin Jian who disappeared for a long time after the opening.
Shi Yunan suppressed Yuan Rui, who was about to become a puffer fish, and approached him and explained in a low voice, “On purpose.”
“What’s the meaning?”
“The guests holding No. 35 and No. 06 bidding cards are actually invited by Gu Jue to spend money to communicate with each other.”
“…”
Yuan Rui blinked his eyes, but this time he reacted quickly, “They are maliciously driving up the auction price? This is against the rules of the auction!”
Deliberately or even maliciously creating an atmosphere of “hot auction”, guiding guests who really love auction items to increase their bidding chips time and time again under the condition of excitement and impulsiveness.
Wait until the auction price reaches the critical point and then close the auction in time. The bidders who are recruited will buy the goods at a premium. This is not a profit, but a loss!
And the ultimate beneficiaries are often the commodity sellers who are hiding behind the scenes.
“Of course we know.” Shi Yunan replied.
This auction money was donated as a love fund. No matter how high the auction price is, it will not flow into Lingyu’s pocket, but what they want is such a high price victory and effect——
As a result, it will gain more attention and gimmicks, and coupled with the design of jewelry works that are acceptable, naturally high-value orders will come to the door.
Yuan Rui did not refute, after all, this was also the purpose for him and Shi Yunnan to participate in the auction.
It’s just that, no matter how much they want to win, they can’t engage in such small private operations! Doesn’t this show that the guests who really like this work are trapped?
“Don’t worry, this is a psychological game.”
Shi Yunnan patted the back of his friend’s hand to appease him, “With me here, Gu Jue will only get into trouble.”
During the brief conversation between the two, the auction price has soared to 8.6 million.
The two ‘guests’ on No. 06 and No. 35 increased their prices, and two ladies who really value jewelry followed suit.
After another round, the auction price has reached 9 million, and the bidder is a noble lady wearing a cheongsam and mink fur.
Yuan Rui couldn’t stand it anymore, and his disgust for Gu Jue was getting deeper and deeper.
He has a moral bottom line that is too high when he treats anything about jade.
Just when everyone thought the auction price was too high, another familiar and indifferent voice sounded from the front row, “No. 098, 9.5 million.”
All of a sudden, everyone’s eyes were focused, and even Luo Lingsheng narrowed his eyes in surprise, “Yu Shuo?”
Yu Shuo in the front row waved his hand cards with interest, and used the cards to cover his mouth, “I guess what you are doing, I have nothing to do to help you.”
“Don’t worry, the price will continue to increase over there. If I really lose the bet, the 9.5 million will be spent on a premium item.”
This little money is so tickle.
Sure enough, Yu Shuo’s price was exported, and the auction house was frozen for a moment——
Although love and impulsiveness are the truth at the auction, a diamond brooch sold for 9.5 million, which is already a sky-high price!
Gu Jue sat in the seat, and the phone vibrated.
“President Gu, do you want to continue to increase the price?”
“Mr. Gu, it’s almost time to stop, right?”
The two text messages before and after came from the ‘fake guests’ on the 06th and 35th respectively. The two of them are the core caregivers responsible for high prices.
At this critical point of high price, they can no longer increase the price rashly for Gu Jue who is behind the scenes, lest they stumble and cause accidents.
Gu Jue was still hesitant, and a voice of discussion suddenly sounded next to him, “If this auction trend continues, this brooch won’t reach 10 million, right? That’s a new high!”
“Not necessarily, I think this 9.5 million is almost the same.”
“It’s already 9.5 million, and it’s still a mere 500,000? I see that the rich wife who can’t keep up will have to take another shot. Women, you are always willing to spend money on things you like.”
…
Gu Jue listened to his heart silently, and inexplicably flashed in his mind what Shi Yunnan said at the bathroom mouth——
Gu Jue, just wait and see, my design works will definitely fetch the highest price in the auction, and then I will stomp your Lingyu design works under your feet.
“President Gu, what’s the matter with you?” Song Miaoke reminded, “It’s been the second time.”
Hearing this, Gu Jue immediately replied to the message on his mobile phone.
add!
Add to 9.9 million!
It didn’t take long for the news to spread, and before the auctioneer called the auctioneer to stop for the third time, the ‘Tor’ in the front row both increased the price to 9.9 million!
As soon as this price was exported, Shi Yunnan and Luo Lingsheng laughed at the same time.
Yu Shuo breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head——
This person is not enough to swallow an elephant, and as expected, a guess is accurate.
“It’s only 100,000 short of 100,000!” Song Miaoke was nervous and looking forward to it.
Gu Jue held his breath tightly, his eyes fixed on the noble lady in cheongsam and mink fur.
He is gambling!
Bet the other party is willing to spend money to buy this brooch!
After all, the other party was already willing to bid 9 million, and a mere 1 million was an impulsive decision!
But time passed by minute by minute, and there was no new movement in the audience, instead it was unnaturally quiet.
Gu Jue’s panic gradually leaked out from the bottom of his heart.
In fact, there are regulations in the auction, and the auction time for each price increase is limited to one minute, but the organizer and the auctioneer often delay the time in order to obtain higher benefits.
This time the auctioneer also secretly accepted the benefits of Gu Jue. From time to time, he glanced at Gu Jue’s position and tried his best to delay time and drive up the atmosphere.
It’s a pity that no one is willing to increase the price.
“It’s almost done! Why haven’t you finalized it yet?”
“Yeah, it’s taking too long, right?”
“Is this auctioneer professional?”
Some guests started to make noises impatiently. It was almost ten o’clock. They were still waiting for the last exhibit to come out and go home after the auction early!
The auctioneer received a strange sound, and in his ears he also received the ending sound of the organizer’s controller.
He took a deep breath and had to make a final decision in front of all the guests, “Congratulations to guest No. 06 for taking this brooch at a price of 9.9 million!”
The moment the words came out, Song Miaoke shouted in panic.
Many people around heard the exclamation and turned their eyes away. Many people recognized Gu Jue’s identity and expressed their congratulations, “Mr. Gu, congratulations.”
“The auction price that Lingyu sold this time is too beautiful!”
Gu Jue couldn’t answer at all, and even his eyes lost the initial light and arrogance.
He was stunned in a rare position, hot and cold sweat broke out alternately on his forehead, and a sigh was stuck in his chest, which could not go away, could not get on—
How could this be? He actually lost the bet!
At this moment, other people’s congratulations are a great irony in his ears!
He spent 9.9 million to buy the design of his own company? The most terrible thing is that all this money has to be donated into love money in the end!
In addition to the early-stage management fees, registration fees, etc., this auction has lost almost tens of millions.
All of a sudden, Gu Jue gave Shi Yunnan a mocking smile, and his face instantly turned ashen.
At this moment, he seems to have been slapped countless times, and the auction price of nearly ten million can completely crush him! But can’t shout anything, can’t say anything!
If it is exposed that he is looking for ‘trust’ to drive up the price, it will be more serious than losing nearly 10 million! I am afraid that Lingyu’s design works will not be able to appear in major auctions in the future!
Up to now, Gu Jue only broke his teeth and swallowed in his stomach.
…
“did you see it?”
Shi Yunnan, who ended the game, whispered to his lovers and friends, “Once people don’t have a clear understanding of themselves, they will dig deep holes and bury themselves.”
He deliberately put the order of his design works at the end, just to create more uncertainty for Gu Jue——
What if Yuan’s and Shi Yunnan’s design works can be auctioned for a price higher than 9.5 million?
Not to mention, Shi Yunnan also used words to give him psychological hints at the door of the bathroom.
Under multiple invisible pressures, Gu Jue did not allow such a “win-to-lose” thing to happen, and he lost the most calm judgment under the impulse, which led to such a result.
Luo Lingsheng caught the slyness in his lover’s eyes, “Gu Jue has made a big ups and downs this time.”
Shi Yunnan sneered, “It’s no wonder he’s cocooning himself. I can’t blame him.”
Yuan Rui next to him heard this and made no secret of his schadenfreude, “That’s right! He deserves it!”
One is happy and one is sad.
Not long after, the last design work was finally brought to the eyes of all the guests.
Before waiting for the auctioneer to introduce a word or a word, the moment the genuine product was displayed, the audience’s exclamations rang out one after another.
