Actor: Thank you.
Chapter 626 Self-produced and sold
Originally, the finale and main item of the evening should have been Zeng Fanzhi's oil painting and the custom-made crystal dress by Chinese designer Zhang Zhifeng.
This process is set.
But after Zhang Yuan contacted Su Mang and said that he would offer a big gift, the other party slightly modified the process.
Firstly, Zhang Yuan was too generous.
Su Mang had heard that this up-and-coming young man had a good reputation in the circle.
He does things in a magnanimous and beautiful way and has a very positive reputation.
So after helping out, he was just asked to come to the charity gala, and nothing else.
The expectation is that I can contribute during the auction, spending tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy some things and donate some money to charity.
Everyone carries the fancy sedan, helping each other.
But I didn't expect him to be so precise and generous beyond my expectations.
But this move alone was not enough to make Su Mang adjust the order of the items.
In fact, what is more important is the brand of the necklace that Zhang Yuan gave her.
Among luxury brands, Bulgari is one level higher than Tiffany, Dior, Cartier and others, and at least two levels higher than LV, Fendi, Burberry and other brands that made their fortunes from fur.
Among general luxury goods, that is, luxury goods that can be bought with money, Bulgari is a top luxury brand.
The only one that can sit side by side with it and slightly surpass it is Van Cleef & Arpels.
Van Cleef & Arpels is a French brand, while Bulgari is an Italian brand.
Their positioning is slightly different, Van Cleef & Arpels is more youthful, while Bulgari is more mature and noble.
But Van Cleef & Arpels holds itself higher.
How high is it?
It claims to be a brand that only serves the nobility.
Do you understand the old French Plain White Banner?
The stuff from our Louis family is authentic.
what?
Are there also accessories worth tens of thousands of dollars?
That is to give you poor people a chance to get in touch with the best luxury!
Most luxury brands are both independent and insolent.
This brand only entered the Chinese market in 05, which is quite late.
It is not in a rush, but it is still the "king" among luxury brands.
Van Cleef & Arpels rarely engages in charitable activities, especially those for the general public.
What they want to do is to have a group of wealthy people who are ignorant of the sufferings of the world to move themselves.
Therefore, at the Bazaar Charity Gala, the top luxury brand was Bulgari, with which it has a love-hate relationship.
The most expensive jewelry auction certificate tonight was also given by Bulgari.
A rose gold bracelet inlaid with diamonds was sold for more than 200,000 yuan.
As the editor-in-chief, Su Mang also has to please these big names.
After all, we still have to ask others for sponsorship and advertising fees every year.
Seeing that Zhang Yuan gave such expensive brand jewelry, he put the Bulgari things at the end.
The brand will have face and more exposure, and she can also ask for money.
All he talks about is ideas, and all he thinks about is business.
Under the banner of charity, it is actually a business activity.
By bringing the two sides together, everyone will gain face and she can also benefit from it.
But this is also one of the reasons why even though she knew that Zhang Yuan was also organizing charity events in Shanghai and was doing it on a bigger scale, she and the people behind her were reluctant to make trouble.
After all, the subject is different.
One is fashion and the other is sports.
To the above, fashion is just a bonus, while sports are one of the foundations of the country.
After the host announced the last lot to be auctioned, Cheng Hao stood up with a smile and went on stage.
There was another etiquette lady beside her, pushing a display box padded with pure white silk and coming to her side.
Zhang Yuan did not give away the jewelry in his own name.
Instead, they let Cheng Haoding show up in public in the name of the company.
After all, Su Mang came forward to help, and he was helping her.
The good sister must return the favor in public.
"The next blockbuster lot is a Bulgari ruby necklace donated by our famous actress Miss Cheng Hao."
Su Mang introduced it personally.
And stood close to Cheng Hao.
In addition to letting Cheng Hao show up, Zhang Yuan also wanted to help his good sister improve her personal image.
Cheng Hao actually has a lot of business opportunities, and his endorsement fees are quite high every year.
But the quality of the endorsement is average.
Giving her jewelry and wearing an expensive dress today were all aimed at improving her personal image.
After all, there were more than fifty media outlets at the party.
What you wear and use will be reported in the newspaper tomorrow, and there will definitely be a lot of people analyzing it.
This is a packaging.
Zhang Yuan looked around and found that apart from Cheng Hao, there was no one in his company who could handle high-end luxury.
Zhang Tianai and Wan Qian are too young and lack fame, Yao Cheng is not good-looking and his image is too down-to-earth.
"Okay, the starting price is 10 yuan, everyone is welcome to participate!"
After that, the last auction of the evening party began.
Cheng Hao returned to his seat, looked at Zhang Yuan from a distance, and nodded.
He deliberately arranged for the other party not to sit at the same table with him.
Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes and took a look. Although Cheng Hao was smiling like a flower, there were white marks on her fingers from pinching herself.
Mr. Chen was reluctant to give away the necklace worth millions.
When Zhang Yuan told her this, she had a stern face for most of the day.
She took the necklace to the mirror and tried it again and again.
"I can't wear it!"
"Give it to me for free, you're so generous!"
Zhang Yuan pointed his finger at the unhappy girl and said, "We need to open up."
"I'm reluctant to let the child catch the wolf."
Cheng Hao was reluctant to part with it, and when the other female stars present saw the chain, they all looked at it with reverence.
Gao Yuanyuan stretched her neck and looked at the bright and dazzling rubies that gleamed brightly under the spotlight, with only one thought in her mind.
"want to!"
Other female stars: "Me too."
They all wondered who gave this to Cheng Hao?
Only Fan Bingbing glanced at the necklace on the table, then turned her head and looked at Zhang Yuan who was sitting calmly and rubbing his fingers.
"Humph!"
"My temperament doesn't match Cheng Hao's." Fatty Fan said angrily, "It's more suitable for me!"
"This kid is really risking his money." Xiao Wang on the side also whispered to his brother.
Of course they knew about men's clothing.
"That's a lot of money for a woman."
"He is a romantic... But a good man has ambitions. If he only has women in his heart, his ambitions won't be that big."
Huo Siyan, who was standing beside him, looked at the two ice cubes that everyone had received as gifts from their boss, while she herself got nothing.
I thought I might as well follow someone with no ambition.
"20 million!"
"30 million!"
"40 million!"
There were quite a few discerning people in the place who probably knew the price of the necklace, so quite a few people raised their hands to bid.
After shouting out the number all the way to 50, Zhang Yuan raised his wrist slightly and also raised the sign.
When Cheng Hao saw him raise his hand, he thought about it and realized that he was trying to help him gain face.
After all, the higher the bid, the more face she will have as the donor.
"60."
"70."
"80."
Soon, the bid exceeded one million.
After all, the chain itself costs a million, so it’s worth it.
But Cheng Hao found something wrong.
“Why is he still holding up the sign?”
"Almost got it."
"There is a limit to how much you can raise the price to keep up appearances. Don't overdo it and end up losing money."
When the price reached over 130 million, there were only two or three bidders left, including Zhang Yuan.
Cheng Hao's heart was pounding!
"Stop playing around, it's too dangerous!"
She wanted to rush to Zhang Yuan's table, snatch his sign, and throw it away on the spot.
When the final price reached 138 million, the last person to raise the bid was a fat lady.
No one raised their hand for a long time.
Cheng Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
But just as the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Zhang Yuanka, who was sitting with his legs crossed, raised his hand at the last moment.
"Okay, number 41 will be paid 140 million!"
"Is there any more?"
"First time, second time... hammer down, deal!"
"Congratulations to our bidder No. 41 for winning this magnificent ruby necklace."
When Cheng Hao saw that the final person holding up the sign was Zhang Yuan, he finally felt relieved.
"It's still too much..."
Cheng Hao's smile froze, and she felt powerless. If it weren't for the camera, she would have wanted to pound the table.
Self-production and self-sales?
"Wow, this kid messed up, didn't he?" Xiao Wang looked like he was watching a show.
"I guess he wants to raise the price to a level higher than our painting." The king pushed his glasses and said jokingly.
"Young people are...silly."
When Fan Xiaopang, who sat at the same table, saw the two brothers mocking Zhang Yuan, he didn't agree with them in his heart.
"He can't be that stupid..."
"Such a huge mistake?"
"It's not like he would do that."
"But...what did he do with the necklace he donated?"
Fan Bingbing still understands him.
This was certainly not a mistake, he did it on purpose.
From the beginning he planned to buy the necklace back.
But now it’s different from the original plan.
His initial plan was to let Ning Hao shoot.
Otherwise, why come here with a big head?
Of course he was the one who gave the money, but he let the big head show up on stage.
This way, they can kill two birds with one stone, and both Cheng Hao and Ning Hao, two of their own people, can show up.
Zhang Yuan had already prepared the lyrics for him.
"This is Crazy Stone!"
"I want to make more good movies and support public welfare."
By the way, we are also planning to have him promote a new film that has not yet been completed.
Real estate has pre-sales, so let’s do pre-sales for movies too.
After buying the necklace, he can take it back to the company and exchange it for money at the bank.
Before the new film is released, he will use it to promote it... This was his original plan.
But the Wang brothers are so shameless that they don’t even give money to me, an investor.
This has me in my hands.
Well, let’s wait and see.
So he changed his plan, let Ning Hao take a rest, and came himself!
"Please welcome our lucky bidder No. 41 to the stage!"
Welcomed by the host, Zhang Yuan stood up and walked onto the stage while waving.
Su Mang also took the stage again.
He had been planning to "deliver" the goods himself, but when he saw that he was the one who succeeded, he smiled even more.
This brother is so generous!
It's like donating both money and things.
Su Mang calculated that Zhang Yuan was the one who spent the most money today.
In fact, it cost more than the two Wang brothers.
We have to cooperate well. Since they give us face, we can't do anything sloppy.
Su Mang was also a person who knew how to serve different dishes to different people, so he quickly came over with a smile.
"First of all, I would like to thank Mr. Zhang Yuan for his generosity and support for our Bazaar Charity Gala and public welfare."
The editor-in-chief of Su University rolled his eyes and praised him happily.
"I saw on the Internet that you are now a 10 billion box office male star. Do you know this yourself?"
From "Kung Fu" to "A World Without Thieves", as well as "The Banquet", "Crazy Stone", "Initial D" and so on.
Zhang Yuan roughly estimated that the other party's words should also include his guest appearances in "Baby Project" and "Huo Yuanjia".
The box office of these two films also exceeded 100 million.
Let’s add to that the currently showing “Curse of the Golden Flower”.
The movie has now grossed over 10 million yuan, and the total has indeed exceeded billion yuan.
This was also the first time Zhang Yuan heard of this.
I think it is more realistic than the so-called 3 million box office actors before. After all, the role played is more important now.
When the people in the audience heard this name, they all started whispering and discussing it.
"Is there really a billion?"
“It seems so!”
"Fuck!" Someone in the audience was already cursing.
"No movie he starred in did badly at the box office."
"Hey, the more popular they are, the more popular they are. They have only been in the industry for a few years, and we can't catch up with them."
"At this age, there doesn't seem to be anyone carrying so much box office money on their backs?"
“Although it’s not the first one, it’s still impressive.”
The Hua Jie faction headed by Hu Jun and others felt even more uncomfortable after seeing him take the stage and hearing these words.
I can’t beat him at the box office, and I can’t beat him privately... It’s a good thing Sister Hua didn’t come.
If Wang Jinhua came, her face would probably twitch even more.
Zhang Yuan reacted slightly and replied immediately.
"First of all, I think compared to the 10 billion box office, the recognition of more than 10 billion viewers is more important."
"I would also like to thank so many directors for their support."
"Especially director Zhang Yimou, who gave me the opportunity to act in Curse of the Golden Flower."
"The money we earned from bidding on this necklace today will be the pay for Curse of the Golden Flower."
"So, I hope all the great directors can give me more roles so that I can have more opportunities to support charity."
Feng Xiaogang in the audience smacked his lips.
He mentioned Lao Mouzi but not me!
You also acted in "The Banquet"!
But he thought again, the box office of "Night Banquet" was far less than that of "Curse of the Golden Flower", and the salary he was paid was not as much as that of Zhang Yimou.
Besides, this kid is so smart, he must have kept it secret on purpose.
Ha...it’s the conflict with the two brothers of the Wang family.
After all, he didn't look good before the party.
Forget it, don’t mention me.
They won’t have anything good to say about me... Director Feng leaned back in his chair.
The two brothers of the Wang family also figured it out.
Deliberately didn’t thank our Huayi!
I... forget it.
Xiao Wang thought about it and realized that he had not participated in any of Huayi's productions yet, so there was no way he could get involved.
Seeing this, Li Bingbing glanced at Ren Quan at the next table.
This is a cold response to the two brothers of the Wang family.
How brave!
Ren Quan is considered to be a person with a keen eye for investment and a bold heart in the entertainment industry.
It can be seen that this also laments that the younger generation is formidable.
Not to mention falling out with them, he didn't even dare to talk back in front of the Wang brothers.
Fatty Fan: So handsome...
Only those with temper are handsome.
Why should I be bullied by you guys? It’s just because I have a better family background... Although Fan Ye abides by their rules, she still feels dissatisfied in her heart.
"All the directors present and absent have heard it." Su hurriedly replied: "Give more opportunities to our young actor who is passionate about charity."
“Together, we will make philanthropy bigger and stronger.”
Su Mang took the lead in applauding, and the whole audience burst into applause.
"I guess since you are young and powerful, you must have many confidantes."
After a minute or two, the applause faded, and Su asked with a gossipy smile.
Zhang Yuan: …
Can you tell this truth on stage?
A hero doesn’t care about his origin, and Aquaman doesn’t care about his age, do you understand?
Although the spotlight on the stage was extremely bright, he could still feel several sharper gazes coming from below the stage.
"So, which lucky lady did you plan to give this ruby necklace to?" Su Mang's hosting skills are basically at the level of a wedding host.
"That's true. I bought this necklace and planned to give it to the most beautiful lady in the audience today."
"Today, on site?" The editor-in-chief of Soochow University expressed interest.
I just set up a condom with lots of holes as a joke, why did you put yourself in it?
Now the eyes of those who had cast sharp glances at him changed, and they all stretched their necks to look.
“Isn’t it for me?” Fan Bingbing thought about it.
"If you give it to me, should I take it?"
"If I answer, the Wang brothers will definitely be angry."
"If I don't answer it, I'd feel bad."
"Ah... so confusing."
"Should I wear black stockings or red underwear?"
She has skipped the question of whether to accept the offer and started considering the rewards of accepting it.
Su Mang also glanced at the female artists below the stage.
No matter who you give it to, it’s big news!
It will definitely make the entertainment headlines tomorrow.
This is definitely a great thing for the publicity of the evening party.
"Yes, we're right here." Zhang Yuan waved and called over the young lady holding the gift box.
"I want to personally put this necklace on the most beautiful lady in the room."
"Because in my heart, only she can compete with this necklace."
After saying that, Zhang Yuan carefully held up the "self-produced and self-sold" gemstone necklace with his hands.
After sighing inwardly, he turned to the editor-in-chief of Su University beside him.
"The most beautiful lady in the room is you..." (End of this chapter)
