Inherit For Three Thousand Years
Chapter 658: Apologize in public
President Hao is the boss of the Magic City Club. In order to promote the auction, he did promise such conditions to the club's senior members. And a rich man like Yu Zongwen is naturally a senior member of the club, and he does have the qualifications to put forward this condition.
After the auctioneer consulted the leaders, the auction was temporarily suspended. After a short while, two top painting and calligraphy appraisers from the auction house came onto the stage.
The time for the two appraisers to appraise was not long, not more than 10 minutes. After the two exchanged opinions, they all looked at the club boss Hao who was already waiting next to him.
Mr. Hao walked up to the two appraisers, and one of them whispered: “Mr. Hao, after appraisal by the two of us, we agreed that this painting is indeed a fake and it should be an imitation of the mid-Qing Dynasty. The appraiser may have overlooked this point during the appraisal."
Although Mr. Hao is not the owner of the auction house, he still feels a headache when he encounters this kind of thing as the big boss of the magic city that works closely with the auction house.
In full view, now is not the time to hold the auction house accountable. He must give everyone an explanation immediately. Otherwise, the reputation of the auction house and their magic city will be damaged. The next auction will want to invite so many guests, maybe There will be a certain degree of difficulty.
If the guest who finally bid for this painting is not a senior member of the club, as long as he sincerely apologizes and gives a certain amount of compensation, the matter should not be difficult to solve.
But it was Yu Zongwen, a senior member of the club, who was bidding for this painting, so he had to implement the promise he had given. Although the compensation of 67 million yuan made him very big, but for the integrity of the auction house and their magic city, he must pay a lot of this money to Yu Zongwen.
Fortunately, the main party responsible for the counterfeit should be the auction house, not their magic city. Even if the compensation is not fully borne by the auction house, they should also be responsible for a large part of it.
Mr. Hao's brain turned quickly, and he made a decision quickly.
He went straight to the auction stage and announced loudly: "First of all, I would like to apologize sincerely to all the guests at the venue of Yu Zongwen."
Having said that, Mr. Hao sincerely bowed to everyone.
Then, he continued: "This painting was temporarily provided by Mr. Kameda Ichiro of Hijima Sankando High-Tech. Because of the short time, the auction house was too negligent in appraisal, so the counterfeit was entered into the auction process. Regardless of the reason, there is a problem in the identification process, and the auction house and our magic club are willing to bear all the responsibilities.
As Mr. Yu said just now, I did promise to the first batch of senior members personally that our businessmen value integrity the most. Since I have promised, then we must do it. Here, I announce that the auction house and our magic city will compensate the total amount of 67 million yuan as agreed. Please be a witness and supervise the implementation. "
As soon as Mr. Hao's words fell, there was a warm applause in the venue.
67 million is not a small number, and not everyone has such courage.
President Hao hasn't stepped down yet, and a middle-aged man with a fat body stepped onto the stage while everyone was watching.
After taking the stage, he first bowed to Mr. Hao, then turned to face the direction of the venue and bowed deeply to everyone present.
Then, he sincerely apologized, "Dear friends from the auction house and the Magic City, and all the guests present, Hello, everyone, I am Ichiro Kameda of Sanguantang High-Tech. I am sorry, the painting I submitted turned out to be a one. Fake. This painting has been treasured in my hands for 20 years. I always thought it was Wen Zhengming's original work. I never expected that such a thing would happen.
For the two appraisal experts of the auction house, I believe it, but it is difficult for me to accept this fact emotionally. I will look for relevant experts to do the appraisal again later.
The occurrence of such an accident is not what everyone is willing to see, and it is not what I hope to see. I am ashamed now. In order to make up for it, I am going to take out another treasure for auction. I have arranged for my assistant to pick it up, and I believe I will be able to pick it up before the auction ends. I hope that the treasure I re-submitted will satisfy everyone and it will take you so long. Allow me to apologize to you again. "
Although fakes appeared at the auction and the main responsible party was the auction house, the client, Ichiro Kameda, also lost face. In order to save face, regardless of whether Kameda Ichiro knew that the painting was a fake, after he apologized in public and made a salvation, it was not easy for everyone to put the blame on him.
After the storm, the auction will continue.
The next piece of jewellery is auctioned, and Zheng Xiaowu and others are not interested, so they no longer pay attention to the auction situation on the spot.
With Xiao Yao’s reminder, Yu Zongwen received 67 million yuan in compensation. This is not a small sum. Zheng Xiaowu joked to him: "Today you took a big advantage. You got 67 million yuan for nothing. You can't take the money alone, the five of us must all have a share."
"Why are you so big-faced? What does it have to do with you that I got the 67 million? This money belongs to me and the president. You three have no share. At most, you will have a big meal for the three of you. "Yu Zongwen said triumphantly.
"It’s too easy for you to get this money. Even if you can’t meet someone, you can’t just send us away with a meal? You have to give each of us a gift. We don’t even ask for it. Gao, you can take a photo of an antique artwork worth three or two million for each of us later." Wen Yifei was also joining in the fun next to him.
"The president can sit next to you. You are so blatantly sucking the president's blood. Be careful that the president will put on you little shoes in the future." Yu Zongwen pointed to Xiao Yao and said.
"I'm not going to be a shield for you." Xiao Yao directly dismantled the stage, "If it weren't for worrying that this fake piece would fall into your hands, I wouldn't be this villain. For such a large sum of money, I think I should Those who see you have a share, but the right to distribute is definitely in your hands. If you think you have a good relationship with, then you can allocate more to him."
"President, we are on the same boat, is it appropriate for you to demolish my platform?" Yu Zongwen looked bitter.
Zheng Xiaowu immediately said, “I think it’s quite appropriate. If this forgery falls into your hands, the person who lost 67 million yuan is not the auction house, but you. Counting your losses, the president’s words are equivalent to letting you You saved 130 million. How to distribute it, but the most important thing about character, a few of us are watching from the side."
"I've seen it through. You can't be friends with anyone who makes friends." Yu Zongwen glared at Zheng Xiaowu. "Originally, what we were discussing was the allocation of 67 million yuan. If you ask you to say this, the number is straightforward. It doubled, and it made me suffer a big loss. Are you very happy, aren't you?"
