As Duanmu Lin and the others left, Tan Xiu took Mu Wanying to the leisure area in the corner of the banquet hall. He casually found a sofa and sat down. His eyes swept over the well-dressed men and women in groups of threes and fives. He shook his head and sighed, "To be honest, I really don't like this kind of occasion. A bunch of people wearing masks and hypocritically talking about some meaningless things is simply a waste of time. "
"People living in the secular world must do as the Romans do." Mu Wanying chuckled. "Although this charity party is very cliché and everyone is wearing a hypocritical mask, it's not like there's nothing to recommend it. China attaches great importance to networking, and this is a good place to network. Do you see those men and women who are about the same age as us, chatting and laughing together? They are the typical second-generation or third-generation nouveau riche. This time, their elders brought them here to let the young people get to know each other. In the future, they will form their social circle. It can also be considered as another way to cultivate their children! "
"What you said makes sense." Tan Xiu nodded.
"Actually, I don't like this kind of occasion either." Mu Wanying chuckled. "It's just that the Zhang Group is my client, and Zhang Qingfeng sent me an invitation, so I came to support."
"Your advertising company has business dealings with the Zhang Group?" Tan Xiu was surprised.
Mu Wanying shot a deep look at Tan Xiu and said, "You introduced so many businesses to me back then, causing my advertising company to become famous in Shanghai. Most of the businesses were introduced to me by those people you introduced at the beginning. Zhang Qingfeng came to me personally, and I learned that it was Zhang Yueming, the Boss of the Xinyang Group. Now, the Zhang Group is also a big client of my company. "
Tan Xiu suddenly understood and said with a smile, "It seems that I have to show off my skills tonight."
"You're going to do a charity auction?" Mu Wanying was surprised.
"You're my girlfriend, so I naturally have to give Zhang Qingfeng some face." Tan Xiu slightly smiled. "Let's not talk about this. I seem to see some big stars on TV."
Mu Wanying turned her head and immediately saw several famous A-list and B-list stars in the entertainment circle. They wore evening dresses and were accompanied by male or female companions, smiling and chatting with those who were not easy to greet.
Time flew by.
At eight o 'clock in the evening, the charity auction began. Everyone went to the round table in the hall and took their seats. Tan Xiu and Mu Wanying also found an empty table and sat down. The men and women at the same table didn't know who Tan Xiu and Mu Wanying were, but the two of them were handsome and the woman was beautiful, so the middle-aged men and women at the same table immediately cast curious glances at them.
"You … you're Tan Xiu, Boss Tang?"
Suddenly, the middle-aged man sitting opposite Tan Xiu said.
Tan Xiu smiled and said, "I am Tan Xiu."
The middle-aged man immediately looked pleasantly surprised. He hurriedly got up and took out a business card. He bowed and handed it to Tan Xiu, saying, "Hello, Boss Tang. It's an honor to meet you! I'm Wang Mingwei, the owner of Ziyang Home Appliances. Please take care of me in the future. "
Tan Xiu smiled and said, "I didn't bring my name card. I'm really sorry."
The smile on Wang Mingwei's face froze for a moment before returning to normal. Although he was a bit unhappy inside, he still said, "It's alright. It's alright."
Tan Xiu took out his mobile and dialed the number on Wang Mingwei's name card. Wang Mingwei stared blankly and looked at Tan Xiu with a puzzled expression.
"I don't have the habit of carrying a business card with me," said Tan Xiu with a smile. "But this is my mobile number. If Boss Wang doesn't mind, let's keep in touch in the future. "
Wang Mingwei immediately realized that he had misunderstood Tan Xiu. A bit of sincerity was revealed in his smile as he nodded and said, "Sure, sure. Please don't mind me if I disturb you in the future, Boss Tang!"
"I won't!"
Tan Xiu nodded with a smile. He then looked at Mu Wanying next to him and said with a smile, "Wanying, as my girlfriend, why haven't you greeted Boss Wang?"
Mu Wanying stared blankly for a moment before she immediately understood Tan Xiu's meaning. She took out her business card and handed it to Wang Mingwei, saying with a smile, "Hello, Boss Wang. I'm Mu Wanying."
Wang Mingwei glanced at the business card with a slightly surprised expression. He immediately put it away and said with a smile, "Miss Mu is really a proud daughter of Heaven. You've established such a big advertising company at such a young age. I'll look for the person in charge of the company's publicity department later and tell him to contact your company more. I hope you'll take care of me in the future! "
"Certainly," said Mu Wanying with a smile.
At this moment …
Several middle-aged men and women sitting at the same table were shocked by Wang Mingwei's words. They were familiar with Wang Mingwei, so they naturally understood his character. However, the meaning behind Wang Mingwei's words was very obvious! Did he want to give his company's advertisement to this outrageously beautiful woman?
"Brother Wang, who is this Boss Tang?"
The middle-aged man sitting next to Wang Mingwei couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Brother Zhu, this is the famous Magnificent Tang Corporation's Big Boss, Tan Xiu. How come you don't know him?" Wang Mingwei said with a smile. "He's the most legendary and favored son of Heaven in our business world!"
The Magnificent Tang Corporation?
Tan Xiu?
In an instant, the faces of the men and women sitting at the same table changed and shock could be seen in their eyes. Their businesses were not very big. The most powerful among them, Wang Mingwei, only had a net worth of a few billion yuan, whereas the rest only had assets of several hundred million yuan. It was already very rare for them to be invited here today. Therefore, they had never seen Tan Xiu in real life even though they knew him.
The middle-aged man surnamed Zhu hurriedly took out his business card and smilingly said, "Boss Tang, it's really my fault for not recognizing you immediately. I'm Zhu Tao, the owner of the Golden Bridge Limited Company. "
"Hello, Boss Tang. I'm …"
"Boss Tang …"
In just a few minutes, Mu Wanying received four business cards.
What made her at a loss whether she had to cry or laugh was that these four obviously wanted to curry favor with Tan Xiu and expressed that they would cooperate with her advertising company in the future.
What was this?
Attending a charity gala could actually help her attract business?
Mu Wanying already knew about Tan Xiu's ability, but at this moment, she admired him from the bottom of her heart.
At this moment …
On the temporary platform in the innermost area, Zhang Qingfeng, the organizer of this charity gala, appeared with a microphone in his hand. He smilingly said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm very glad that all of you can spare some time from your busy schedules tonight …"
Tan Xiu, who was sitting below, observed Zhang Qingfeng. He was young and looked like he was in his early 40s, but he was very spirited and could be regarded as a handsome man. His smile was very gentle, and his words and actions were more sincere than many people.
As his speech came to an end, the charity auction began.
The items in this charity auction were, in fact, very common. At least, the first five items were very common. However, in order to give face to Zhang Qingfeng, many people still bid. The most expensive item was a fragrant fan, which actually reached hundreds of thousands.
"The next item is a pair of jadeite bracelets. This jadeite bracelet has been handed down for a long time. It was once worn by a very famous superstar in Shanghai during the Republic of China period. The starting price is 100,000 yuan. The bidding begins now. "
On the projector.
The dark green jadeite bracelet was very beautiful, and it immediately attracted many female guests present.
Tan Xiu's eyes were sharp. At first glance, he could see that although the quality of this pair of jade bracelets was good, it was not the best. However, in order to support Zhang Qingfeng, he decided to auction it for Mu Wanying.
"150,000 yuan!"
"160,000 yuan!"
"…"
"240,000 yuan!"
The price soared all the way, and soon it rose to 240,000 yuan.
Tan Xiu glanced at Mu Wanying, who was smiling without saying anything, and then reached out his hand and shouted, "300,000 yuan."
Suddenly, pairs of eyes in the living room looked over. More than a dozen of them suddenly showed a look of surprise when they saw Tan Xiu. Because they knew Tan Xiu, and most of them even had a good relationship with Tan Xiu, such as Zhang Yueming, the big boss of Xinyang Group.
"400,000 yuan."
Just as everyone was sizing up Tang Xiu, a handsome young man sitting in front of a remote table called out. He was sitting with his legs crossed.
Tan Xiu looked at him and suddenly smiled. Then, he said again, "1 million yuan. I think my girlfriend will like this pair of jadeite bracelets."
The young man's expression changed and he angrily glared at Tan Xiu. When everyone thought that he would not bid again, he loudly said, "2 million yuan. My girlfriend should also like it very much. "
In an instant …
Zhang Yueming and Gu Changmin, who were in the banquet hall, stood up. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhang Yueming coldly glared at the young man and said in a deep voice, "Since Brother Tang's girlfriend likes that jadeite bracelet, then I'll bid 10 million yuan and give it to Brother Tang after the auction."
Gu Changmin also indifferently said, "If you still want to increase the price, I'll double the amount you bid." “
The young man obviously knew Zhang Yueming and Gu Changmin. His complexion slightly changed and he immediately shut his mouth.
Tan Xiu got up and cupped his fists towards Zhang Yueming and Gu Changmin under the watchful eyes of countless people. He smilingly said, "You're too polite, Brothers. However, the protagonist tonight is Mr. Zhang, and the purpose is also for charity. Besides, my girlfriend likes that jadeite bracelet, so how can I let you two Brothers pay for it? How about this? I bid 20 million yuan for that pair of jadeite bracelets. I wonder if anyone wants to increase the price? "
The hundreds of guests in the banquet hall immediately burst into an uproar after hearing Tan Xiu's words. Many of them even whispered to each other.
"Who is he? How can he be so awesome? A pair of jadeite bracelets worth only a few hundred thousand yuan, yet he actually threw out 20 million yuan? "
"Who the hell is this tycoon? Even if he's rich, he shouldn't spend it like this, right? "
"It's strange. Zhang Yueming and Gu Changmin are two famous figures in Shanghai. Why would they stand up for him on such an occasion? Isn't this guy too awesome? "
"He's too handsome. His girlfriend is so lucky."
"He's really crazy …"
On the platform inside, Zhang Qingfeng never expected that Tan Xiu would personally come tonight. He only sent the invitation to Mu Wanying, and he wouldn't have any opinion even if she didn't come. However! Not only did she come, but she also brought Tan Xiu with her. Furthermore, Tan Xiu also gave him such a big face.
