Vol 2 Chapter 122: Extraordinary Auction House

Chapter 122 The Extraordinary Auction House

Most people in Shanghai have never heard of the "extraordinary" auction house, but anyone with great wealth and wealth must have heard of the name of the "extraordinary" auction house.

This "extraordinary" auction house, as its name suggests, auctions all "extraordinary" objects, that is, luxury goods that ordinary people will never use in their entire lives. Only luxury goods are auctioned here, and they are the top luxury ones. And this "extraordinary" auction house also has a strange rule that all auction items must be paid for on the spot to prevent unsold auctions.

For this reason, those who can be invited by the "Extraordinary" auction house are the powerful people in Shanghai. Most people who come to Shanghai to work hard and obtain a certain status are proud of receiving the invitation letter from the "Extraordinary" auction house. This represents you. Has stepped into the threshold of Shanghai's upper class society.

At first, Lin Feng didn't know that this invitation letter would be so tempting. When he casually took the invitation letter and wondered who to take to the auction house, Wu Zhaopu saw it and looked shocked.

After Wu Zhaopu's excited explanation, Lin Feng understood the meaning behind this invitation letter. Since it is an invitation letter representing the threshold of entering Shanghai's upper class society, Lin Feng must go.

As the company develops, if Lin Feng wants to establish a firm foothold in Shanghai, he must make friends with these powerful figures. The "extraordinary" auction house is to give all those who come to Shanghai to develop and make certain achievements an opportunity to enter Shanghai's upper class society.

As for "extraordinary" auction behavior, no one knows. But there is no doubt that in a few years, this has become an important occasion for Shanghai's upper-class social communication.

The "Extraordinary" auction house also has an unwritten rule that all new members must take an item at the first auction to show their financial resources and strength. If you don't shoot, you will be despised by other rich people, and you will never have the opportunity to set foot in this circle again.

And every time they target new members, other wealthy people will tacitly drive up prices. One is to show their financial strength, and the other is to suppress the newcomer and tell him who the real person in Shanghai is.

Of course, in this way, new members will definitely suffer, but they can get in touch with many dignitaries who are not usually met at all, which is definitely beneficial to their career development. Calculated in this way, it can be said to be mutually beneficial.

"Dong Lin, you only remember one thing. You must take a picture of an item in it, otherwise you will be looked down upon by other rich people, and may even affect the company's development in Shanghai." Wu Zhaopu looked at the "extraordinary" invitation letter with a lot of emotion. .

This is not only a hot potato, but also an opportunity.

Lin Feng listened for a moment. He didn't expect this "extraordinary" auction house to have such weird rules, but since these are the rules of others, they can only abide by them. It’s not just a luxury. Buying one with hundreds of thousands of net worth can only be seen and not used. It’s not too extravagant.

"Oh, one more thing, the owner of the'extraordinary' auction house hopes that his shop is a place for the upper-class social elites to communicate, and does not want any unsuitable scenes, so no matter what kind of difficulties you face in the boss, you have to control it. Feeling down." Wu Zhaopu said, "This'extraordinary' boss rarely knows who he really is, but Zhou Zhengyi, the richest man in Shanghai, doesn't dare to be too presumptuous in it."

scare! Lin Feng was taken aback when he heard this. He didn't expect that the behind-the-scenes boss of this "extraordinary" auction house was so powerful. Even Shanghai's richest man Zhou Zhengyi would not dare to behave in it. It is no wonder that an auction house has so many rules.

Lin Feng nodded, indicating that he understood.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Feng took Li Zhiyou to the "extraordinary" auction house.

I have to say that the "extraordinary" auction house is where the upper class gathers. Lin Feng's Mercedes-Benz s600 can be said to be the most inconspicuous car here. Most of the cars parked here are luxury cars like Bentley.

Bentley cars are most praised for their excellent craftsmanship and harsh selection of materials. Each car requires at least 400 high-quality cowhides, which is about 15 cows, and the required wood is made of high-quality walnut burr.

The domestic Bentley 728 extended version is priced at 8.88 million yuan, and the flagship version of the elegant mulliner 728 is priced at 11.18 million yuan. The sales volume of this car in mainland China ranks first in the world, and most of it is sold Rich people in Shanghai, Beijing and other places buy it.

"Hello, sir, please show me your invitation letter." The waiter at the door is gentle and polite, showing the upper class atmosphere in his gestures.

Lin Feng was stunned secretly, even the quality of a doorman is so high, this "extraordinary" auction house is indeed not simple.

After presenting the invitation letter, Lin Feng and Li Zhiyou were taken in by a tall and beautiful young woman wearing a cheongsam. However, Wang Meng, who came with him, had to stay outside and wait for Lin Feng because of the "extraordinary" auction house rules.

Lin Feng could clearly see that these doormen and the female welcoming lady recognized Li Zhiyou, but there was no change in their expressions, still upholding their duties, and their high quality made Lin Feng amazed.

After passing through several antique corridors, Lin Feng came to an extremely luxuriously decorated, brilliantly decorated, but extremely elegant hall.

When Lin Feng and Li Zhiyou arrived, there were already many people here. All of them were well-dressed, and the female companions around them were all young and beautiful. According to their relationship, they were gathered together in small groups without talking or talking loudly. Noisy, just drinking red wine and communicating in a low voice.

Everyone naturally saw Lin Feng and others come in. Except for a few people who gave Li Zhiyou a stunning glance, most of them turned a blind eye to Lin Feng.

"Brother Lin, I'm a little nervous..." Li Zhiyou came to this occasion for the first time, knowing that all the people present were Shanghai's influential figures, and his heart was inevitably nervous. He grabbed Lin Feng's arm and didn't know what to do.

"Hehe, friends, don't be nervous, I'm here for the first time. But there is nothing to be nervous about, they are just ordinary people with more money and more power." Although Lin Feng is the first time to come to this kind of occasion. , But his career success gave Lin Feng absolute confidence.

Maybe now I am not as good as them in some aspects, but I will definitely surpass these people in the future. -Lin Feng has global ambitions, so naturally he won't be frightened by these rich men in front of him.

"Hey, old Dong, did you see it? It seems to be a new member." A middle-aged man looked at Lin Feng secretly while holding red wine.

"Hehe, Lao Li, I think you are fancy that little girl!" Lao Dong is in his fifties and knows what this old friend beside him is like.

"Hey, everyone knows the love of beauty!" Lao Li didn't deny it, and instead drank the red wine in his glass. "We will see if this newcomer is eligible to enter our circle later. ."

"En. It is not so easy to enter our circle."

The other groups of people, like this old Dong and old Li, looked at Lin Feng secretly, thinking about how they would tease Lin Feng when they waited. They also came here before, and now that new members come, they will naturally not let go of the opportunity to reorganize new members.

However, there was a pair of greedy eyes staring at Li Zhiyou in the crowd, ignoring the dissatisfaction of the **** woman around him.

Lin Feng didn't know anyone. Seeing that everyone was ignoring himself, he didn't bother to get hot and cold buttocks, pulling Li Zhiyou to sit down comfortably. It was rare to have the time to relax, so he was going to date Li Zhiyou this time. Anyway, although there are many people here, it is extremely quiet, and with elegance everywhere, it is also a good place for dating.

While chatting and joking with Li Zhiyou, Lin Feng accidentally discovered a man-Zhou Zhengyi, the richest man in Shanghai.

Lin Fengneng discovered that Zhou Zhengyi, besides his little Beige's hairstyle, the woman next to him was the reason Lin Feng paid attention to Zhou Zhengyi.

The woman next to Zhou Zhengyi is no one else but Yang Gongru, a Taiwanese actress who has recently become popular. Seeing Yang Gong nestling next to Zhou Zhengyi like a bird, Lin Feng sighed with emotion. It seems that the gossip about Yang Gongru and Zhou Zhengyi in the newspaper I read before rebirth was not groundless.

Not long after, the lights dimmed, and the waiters brought mellow red wine and carefully prepared French meals, and the auction tonight officially began. This is also a feature of "extraordinary" auctions, auctions in a wonderful dinner.

"First, let me introduce tonight's new members, the chairman of'Second World', Lin Feng and Lin Dong, the chairman of Dingdang.com and the chairman of 520 Novel Fast Food Chain." The auctioneer opened the opening and introduced Lin Feng and lights loudly. Also cooperated to reach Lin Feng.

Lin Feng smiled and stood up to signal to everyone. Lin Feng was not surprised that the "extraordinary" auction house was able to find out its details. Even the "extraordinary" auction house, which even Shanghai's richest man Zhou Zhengyi dared not presumptuously, is a joke if he can't find out his own details.

There was a round of applause. This is the rule of the "extraordinary" auction house and welcomed the new members. Of course, if Lin Feng does not buy a luxury item to go home later, I am afraid that his company will encounter a lot of difficulties in Shanghai from now on.

Under the focus of the lights, Lin Feng did not notice that Zhou Zhengyi, the richest man in Shanghai, glanced at Lin Feng rare after hearing Lin Feng's introduction, but his eyes contained a bit of disgust and disdain.

After the introduction, the auctioneer directly started tonight's theme.

"Tonight, as usual, a total of nine items will be auctioned. Friends who need it, please start as soon as possible." The auctioneer said this, actually giving Lin Feng a secret signal. This is also the "extraordinary" auction house rules and a little care for new members.

In each auction, the "Extraordinary" auction house only auctions nine items. If the new member is not strong, it is best to buy the first item. Otherwise, the price of the following items will become more and more expensive, which is very likely to cause the new member to be unable to take pictures. This is also what "extraordinary" auction houses try to avoid.

Of course, the later things you photograph, the more you can show your financial resources, and be recognized by everyone, and the sooner you can join the circle.

The first auction item was a set of Wedgwood bone china, a teapot, and four tea bowls.

Wedgwood bone china ware uses animal bone meal as the main raw material, and its endurance is amazing. Four coffee cups can hold a 15-ton earth-carrying truck. Of course, the price is extremely expensive. In specialty stores in mainland China, a Wedgwood porcelain bowl sells for thousands of yuan.

Of course, this set to be auctioned tonight will not be ordinary Wedgwood bone china, but a gift presented to Emperor Qianlong when the British mission went to China in 1793. However, the four tea bowls have been lost, and only the teapot is the original product. Later, someone imitated the four tea bowls with a set.

This set of Wedgwood Bone China with only the teapot is the original. The starting price is 300,000 RMB, and the bid price shall not be less than 10,000 RMB each time.
