Upon hearing his words, everyone below was stunned.
You made such a big scene and called all the inner members of the Chamber of Commerce. There were also many outer members who came to watch the fun, but the starting price was one dollar?! And there was only one item?
If Gong Zhiwen had said that the starting price was a hundred million, everyone present would have thought, "Ah, this legendary treasure is only so-so." With such a mindset, they wouldn't think that this item was worth much.
However, the starting price of one dollar was different — very quickly, everyone became excited. Priceless treasure, this was definitely a priceless treasure. Only priceless treasures would not have a clear starting price. Everything depended on the person's taste!
Suddenly, everyone's curiosity was piqued. The person who was anxious earlier asked, "Are we really going to look and touch it?"
"That's right." Gong Zhiwen smiled and nodded.
"Then, let me take a look first!" That person immediately stood up and walked forward. After removing the red cloth, the first thing that came out was "Hmm?" Then, he shook his head and reached out to touch it. This time, his expression changed drastically and he sucked in a breath of cold air. Then, he covered it with the red cloth and gave his bid. "I bid twenty million. If it's not enough, I'll raise the price."
The starting price was one dollar, but the first person who came up offered twenty million. Even though the people present were experienced and knowledgeable, they had never seen such an auction before. Therefore, many people immediately rubbed their palms together and prepared to go forward to see what exactly it was.
Then, something strange happened!
The few people who came forward to check almost all raised their bids by leaps and bounds. The increase in the price was enough to make everyone's jaws drop. "I'll pay 30 million." "40 million." "60 million." "80 million!"
In just a few moments, the price had jumped to eighty million.
This made the people behind even more curious. Everyone stretched their necks to see what exactly it was.
In the end, the price kept rising. After another twenty people passed by, a middle-aged man who was about 45 or 46 years old put his hand in. After touching the item, his face was filled with joy. Without hesitation, he gave his bid. "I bid five hundred million."
Five hundred million!
Hearing this price, everyone present was stunned.
The starting price of one dollar jumped. In the end, it actually rose to five hundred million in no time! Five hundred million! Most of the outer circle members only had a net worth of two to three billion!
What on earth was this treasure?!
In the end, before everyone could recover from their shock, another person touched it and directly stated his price, "I offer 800 million."
800 million! It actually increased to 800 million!
This time, all the people in the conference room were stunned.
Before they came, they did think that this should be a good treasure, but no matter how much they thought about it, they did not expect that it would actually be priced at 800 million!
At this moment, the person who had offered 500 million said anxiously, "Old Yang, this thing is only of the ice type. You don't have to raise the price with me, do you?"
Old Yang, who had offered 800 million yuan, said, "You and I both know why this thing is so valuable. I know you have early-stage stomach cancer, but I have mid-stage lung cancer. I need this thing more than you do. I'll pay 800 million. If you want it, name your price. Don't talk about favors. No matter how great a favor is, it's not as important as your life! "
It turned out that this treasure was the Ice type jade that Hong Dali had cut out previously, the one that could increase his health!
Although the increase in health wasn't very high, only about five points, the problem was that this thing could suppress the progression of the disease! Just this alone made it invincible — no matter how much money one earned, it was not as important as one's life! Especially for the inner circle members, spending one billion or eight hundred million to extend their lives for another ten or twenty years was something they wouldn't even frown at!
At this time, everyone finally knew what this magical treasure was for. Simply put, it was an Ice type jade that could extend one's life. Furthermore, this thing was very effective!
When a person's total assets reached one billion, or even ten billion, what was the most important at this time? Without a doubt, it was health!
Wasn't there a saying that the most tragic thing in one's life was death and not having enough money to spend?
Especially for these two businessmen who were terminally ill and didn't have long to live. Suddenly, there was a magical jade that made them feel like they could live for another eight to ten years. Wouldn't they fight to the death for it?!
At this time, everyone was excited.
The outer circle members might not be qualified to compete because of their assets, but the inner circle members didn't care so much. For such a good thing, they would fight to the death to bid for it. Especially those who were terminally ill or had very difficult to treat illnesses. All of them were in a frenzy!
"900 million!" "1 billion!" "1.2 billion!" "I bid 1.5 billion, I'm definitely getting this!"
In just a short while, the price of this jade had reached 1.5 billion!
Of course, seeing that everyone was about to start a fight, Gong Zhiwen naturally knew that it was time to stop. He took the microphone and lightly coughed twice. Then, he smiled and said, "Alright, since everyone knows the benefits of this thing, I have something to say to everyone."
Hearing that Gong Zhiwen had something to say, everyone in the crowd quietened down. After all, this jade was taken out from him. He looked like he was prepared. Could it be that he had more in his hands?!
"Everyone's guess is right. This jade can make one healthy and extend one's life." Gong Zhiwen held the microphone and said with a smile, "Yes, I know words are no proof. Although many people here have touched this thing, there are still many who haven't. So, I'll play a video for everyone now. You'll know once you see it. "
Very quickly, the assistant brought over a laptop and a projector. After connecting them to the power source and switching them on, a figure appeared on the projection screen.
This person was already very old. His hair was white, but he looked very energetic. He was actually kicking a shuttlecock on the grass!
"I believe those who know this old man have already recognized him." Gong Zhiwen pointed at the screen and slowly said, "That's right. He's the CEO of Turkey, Liu Yihui, CEO Liu's father, Liu Zhongyuan. I'm sure many of you here have heard about Elder Liu's physical condition. "
Upon hearing Gong Zhiwen's words, everyone exclaimed, "It's actually Elder Liu! God, didn't I hear that he had stomach cancer? Why does he look so energetic now?! "" Yes, and it was said that he was in the late stages when he was discovered! "
Hearing the discussion below, Gong Zhiwen smiled and said, "That's right. Elder Liu is indeed in the late stages of stomach cancer. However, Young Master Hong Dali gave him a pair of magical fitness balls. It has the same effect as the one I'm auctioning today. I don't need to explain the rest, right? "
This time, everyone in the conference room was stunned.
Elder Liu, who was in the late stages of stomach cancer, was actually so energetic that he could even kick a shuttlecock! Then this jade that could prolong one's life …
Especially the few big shots who were also suffering from terminal illnesses. Their eyes lit up as they watched the video, almost like lasers …
Now, everyone knew that Gong Zhiwen had said all this. That meant he definitely had more goods in his hands!
"CEO Gong, this is indeed a good thing." Someone below shouted, "Let's not talk anymore. State your conditions. Everyone is listening. Good things should be shared with everyone, right? "
"Hehe, since everyone has said so, I won't keep you in suspense." Gong Zhiwen nodded and smiled. "I believe everyone has realized that almost all the inner circle members are present today. However, one person is missing."
Everyone scanned the room. Soon, someone realized something. "CEO Qian Guangzhao is not here! CEO Gong, you mean … "
"Yes." Gong Zhiwen smiled and said, "My condition is very simple. Impeach Qian Guangzhao. As long as everyone agrees, this magical jade will be sold to everyone for … fifty million. If you don't agree, then please leave. "
As long as they impeached Qian Guangzhao and added fifty million, they could exchange for a piece of jade that could prolong one's life and bring health!
No one present could reject such a condition!
After all, conditions, partners, and friendships were all nonsense. Only their lives belonged to them!
"Let's do it!" A portion of the people present were still hesitating. But the two people who fought fiercely for the jade just now did not hesitate at all and directly agreed.
Once someone took the lead, the others soon realized what was going on — although Gong Zhiwen only asked for fifty million for this piece of jade that could bring health, the true value of this thing was not in the price, but in the connections it could gather!
Who could guarantee that one would not fall ill or suffer from disasters? If they did not agree now, there would not be a chance in the future! Also, Hong Weiguo would definitely be able to use this to gather popularity. It was not an exaggeration to say that everything was set in stone. At this time, only a fool would not agree!
"Let's do it. Damn it, nothing is more important than one's own life!" "That's right, that's right. Let's do it! Only a fool would not do it! "
However, after a short moment of hesitation, no one in the crowd left. Everyone agreed.
Liu Yihui and Mu Tie looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
When Hong Weiguo was impeached, the few of them had thought about this. But Hong Weiguo was not confident then. To put it simply, he was just trying his luck. Fortunately, Hong Weiguo's side was reliable and really produced such a piece of jade.
Now that everything was healthy, not to mention one Qian Guangzhao, even ten of him would not be Hong Weiguo's match.
"Finally, the clouds have parted and the moon has come to light. It was not easy." Mu Tie sighed and said, "Siding with the Hong Family back then seems to be the right choice."
Liu Yihui nodded. "That's right. When I think about how I had to scheme against the Hong Family, I break out in cold sweat. Hong Dali, this little prodigal, is really … His moves are earth-shattering! "
