Chapter 2098

"Langley Hall's guitar and score" has a base price of 1000 pounds and an estimated price of 50000 pounds. The final transaction price is... 1 million pounds!

Before the auction officially starts, professional auctioneers will evaluate all items. According to the nature of the charity auction, they refer to the identity and status of the owner of the donated items and give a fuzzy estimated price to help preheat the auction. But now it seems that they have obviously underestimated the "value" of Langley.

From 50000 valuation to one million transaction, it has increased 200 times; From the base price of 1000 to the transaction price of 1 million, it has increased a thousand times. Such momentum is absolutely shocking! Even the well-informed Alexander Hamilton could not hide his accident and could not help showing a sincere smile.

What's more, this is not all the highlights of the auction.

The bottom price of the long snuff bottle made by Emperor Qianlong of Qing Dynasty is 50000 pounds, with an estimated price of 300000 pounds, and the final transaction price is 1.5 million pounds!

The transaction price of luochui was 30 times higher than the reserve price and five times higher than the appraisal price. Such a gesture is rare even in real art auctions. The enthusiasm and activity of the market are far beyond imagination. The enthusiasm and enthusiasm of the auction make the scene always keep a hot atmosphere.

The two items with the highest transaction price and the second highest transaction price all came from the same donor; In addition, the items with the third highest transaction price were obtained from the same donor's auction. Naturally, the focus is the special guest.

Langley hall!

For the past five years, that's one of the most familiar names for the upper class in London - not because of reverence, but because of gossip.

Everyone is paying attention to what kind of fame and height this new generation actor can achieve in the art field. In those eyes, Schadenfreude, disdain, and pickiness occupy the majority. It seems that everyone is waiting for a joke to become their spare time conversation. As for their dreams and beliefs, they have no meaning at all.

As time goes by, lanli has gained a firm foothold at the top of the pyramid all over the world in another way - not only in the entertainment industry. Lanli's powerful influence is entering a higher level, and it has an extraordinary voice, which is enough to radiate to different levels and positions of the society. It is amazing that lanli has become a treasure for all, Everyone can't wait to be his crowd.

This year, in March, lanli returned to London in a low-key way. He was visible everywhere, but he did not make too many waves, but quietly triggered a lot of speculation; In September, Langley returned to London again and showed up in a high profile. This is the first time that he has carried out social activities outside of work, which inevitably led to more discussions. People can't help wondering whether the most popular figure in the world will officially return to London?

In addition to the huge interests maintained by vanity fair, the economic interests represented by Sisyphus film and Don Quixote channel, as well as the social interests represented by Shanghai se cross foundation and folk music festival, all of which make the value of lenley very high. It is no exaggeration to say that everyone wants to know lenley, Even if it's just a small meeting in a private club.

All the focus of this gathering together, and finally fell on today's charity auction, together to create a turbulent miracle!

In fact, there is a lot of focus on the auction.

The perfect appearance of Alexander Hamilton, the mysterious No. 43 guest, the uninvited arrival of Mr. and Mrs. hall, the presence of Beatrice with her male partner, the bewilderment of Mr. and Mrs. Beckhams, the refusal of the count of Oxford, the technology upstart who did not receive the invitation, the Viscount who went to Naples for a holiday after being refused, and so on, There are numerous topics of discussion in the upper class. Those who are present can attract attention, while those who are not present are constantly gossiping, not to mention the related discussions about auction items and auction guests.

"... he just donated a book, which should have been left by his great grandfather. I don't know when he will lose his family."

"I haven't raised a sign so far. It seems that she just came to pretend to be a statue. I don't understand why she was invited."

"Did you notice what he photographed? That should be his ex girlfriend, who is now dating a tech upstart in the financial district. "

"I didn't expect that even the last bit of family wealth was gone. That vase was clearly a wedding gift given by the count last time. Now it's also donated as an antique. It's decaying so fast. Do you know what happened to their family? Is investment in real estate a failure? "

"When on earth do you say he will raise his card? Don't you participate in the whole process? Oh, by the way, when bidding for the snuff bottle, he held up the brand once, 60000 pounds, and then quickly put it down for fear that he would win the bid. He didn't know if he could come up with 60000 pounds

Focus, focus, focus.

Every move, every smile and every frown is the focus, which is in the literal sense. Even if it is just a lift or a look, it may become the focus of the guests around; Even if it is repeatedly wearing a suit of clothes or shirt collar wrinkles, may reveal their own details.

On such occasions, you must pay attention to your words, deeds and looks all the time. If you don't pay attention, you may become a laughing stock of the upper class, or even can't raise your head for a long time. If someone is curious, why is lanli's etiquette never wrong, or why is lanli's gentlemanly demeanor so elegant, They can come to the auction to experience it, and then they will know where the sense of bondage comes from. When they are in it, lanli has no sense of disobedience. Similarly, he will not be particularly prominent.

The same manner and demeanor may be unique in Hollywood, but it is common in the upper class.

But just in such an occasion, lanli still easily became the focus of the audience. Among the numerous discussions and gossip, the topic of lanli never stopped - about the hall couple, there have been hundreds of rounds of conversation and eye contact, but because of lanli's face, no one is so disappointed; Now that the auction is over, Langley has become the center of the topic. Even Alexander has to admit that Langley's far-reaching influence is really shocking.

So the auction ended.

Dave Clark immediately noticed that all the eyes of the audience fell on lanli. Even when talking with others, the rest of his eyes could not help drifting towards lanli, including Beatrice. This made Dave feel chest tightness, like a heavy hammer hitting his chest.

What's going on? This is different from the picture he imagined, so he spent a million pounds to buy a group of children's musical instruments, and then made wedding clothes for others, so he couldn't get any attention? Like a fool without a brain?

fool!

blamed! Dave slowly regained his mind and recalled the whole auction process. That kind of creepy feeling began to emerge. The shivering feeling of being calculated jumped up quietly on the spine. All the sweat hairs were standing up. The tight muscles were making a low interlacing sound. It seemed that they might explode at any time.

"Bang!"

All of a sudden, there was a dull sound, but it didn't really explode. Instead, the thunder in his mind hit on the eardrum, which made Dave suddenly wake up. His wandering thoughts were all folded back to his mind, and the focus and focus were gathered again. Then he could see Langley's slightly worried face appeared in front of him, and he asked in an exploratory voice, "Dave? Are you ok? "

"Good. I'm fine Only then did Dave really wake up, straightened his back slightly and invisibly, and the rest of his sight could capture the whole scene.

Good!

very nice!

It couldn't be better!

Just when he was distracted, lanli appeared, and then he became the focus of attention. His embarrassment and embarrassment were exposed in broad daylight. If lanli didn't mean it, he didn't believe it, but what else could he do, except to show a smile and deal with it calmly?

"Thank you very much for making today's auction meaningful." Langley didn't investigate the distraction of Dave, and humbly and politely expressed his respect.

Deep in his eyes, however, there was a slight rigidity: the point of buying a million pounds, of course, was that he had to make it worth the money. "Ha, my pleasure. For the children of Africa, we all want to do our best to contribute, don't we? That's what Trish wanted, too

Now that it's hard to ride a tiger, Dave has to show his demeanor and politeness. Otherwise, the million dollars will be lost.

Dave turned and looked at Beatrice. Sure enough, she saw Beatrice's flushed face. Her eyes and expression couldn't hide her excitement. She nestled lovingly in Dave's arms. "I didn't expect such a result, but we all came here for those children, so I thought, We are all working on it in our own way. "

Before Dave had time to be happy, Beatrice changed the subject. "It's like Langley. The two auctions you prepared today are really wonderful. They make me small in an instant. I really like your guitar and music score very much. That speech was enough to move everyone, right? "Dave?"

"Of course. Sure. " Dave has to clench his fist, or his teeth will fight, which will reveal his emotions.

"In this way, Dave can kill two birds with one stone. He can not only contribute to charity, but also present a gift to his girlfriend. The biggest winner tonight is Dave Lan Li said with a smile.
