Chapter 923 Charity Auction!
The female host is from Yanjing TV Station. It was specially invited by Tang Qi to host the event voluntarily without receiving any reward.
During this event, Qiao Zhi only provided the venue, and many other matters were solved by Tang Qi using his strong connections.
The female host had a good typhoon. She was wearing a purple evening dress and stood on the stage and looked at her feet, easily suppressing the scene.
“Dear guests!
Welcome to the free canteen charity auction event held by Zhixue Charity.
Everyone who came to the scene today has a common attribute, you have a kind heart. Your kindness will bring warmth to the poor children and make great contributions to promoting China's charity.
Now, please invite Mr. Qiao Zhi, the initiator of this charity event, to come on stage to speak."
Qiao Zhi stood in the middle of the stage in formal attire, his eyes falling on the guests below, with familiar faces and strange faces. He was in a state of great excitement at this moment.
In life, being rich and powerful is important, but real success lies in using one's own abilities to influence some people and change their destiny.
Qiao Zhi did this.
“I want to stand on the stage and say more valuable things, less empty talk and clichés.
Zhixue Charity will launch 100 free canteens in the first phase of the country, with 70 more than the original plan base. I have to thank donors from all walks of life. Because of your support, we can double the scale.
If this charity auction can raise more funds, we will initiate no less than 100 free canteens in the second phase, and at the same time upgrade the dining standards, not only to allow students to eat enough, but also to make them have a balanced nutrition and a reasonable diet.
Secondly, in the process of promoting free canteens, we have a strict supervision system to avoid people hiding money to fill their pockets. We not only require the school to set up a free canteen supervision team, but also apply for government agencies to arrange people to join them. If someone embezzles, we will definitely hold them legally responsible and never tolerate them. I would like to remind some people here not to expect to be greedy from the free canteen project. This will be a completely open and transparent charity project. If anyone is infected, he will be ruined in the end."
As soon as Qiao Zhi finished speaking, the guests below began to applaud.
There are too many institutions in society under the guise of public welfare. In name, they are in order to promote charity, but in fact they are taking the donor's money into personal gain and making money in a disguised manner.
Qiao Zhi did not name it, but pointed it directly at the key point, hitting everyone's most concerned issue.
A QR code appeared behind Qiao Zhi, and he introduced: "We have designed an app software for this event. Of course, if you have already downloaded the Qiao Gangzhu app, you don't need to download it again, because this app can also be found in the Qiao Gangzhu's functional software.
Any company or individual who donates this free canteen plan will become a public welfare partner and receive the medal of the Qiao Gangzhu. In the future, you can enjoy a 5% subsidy when dining in any catering company under the Qiao Gangzhu app, including the Qiao Gangzhu canteen!”
As soon as Qiao Zhi said this, some of the guests who were familiar with it were surprised because the main canteen of Qiao Bang is famous for being difficult to discount. No matter how good the relationship is, it can only be 10% off at most. Having a 5% subsidy means that it can be 10% off.
"Qiao Zhi has also worked hard for this charity project!"
"I didn't expect that such a stingy person would be ruthless in doing charity."
"This is Qiao Zhi, which can always bring huge contrast to people."
Qiao Zhi talked freely on the stage, and said with a clear look: "Public welfare activities are a kind of spiritual food. Through the spread of truth, goodness and beauty, we realize our own life value and purify our souls.
The original intention of this free canteen plan is a gift I gave to my two children. The significance to me is different from everyone here. Here I promise that the free canteen will not only be done this year, but will continue to stick to it in the future. With the growth of my children, the free canteen plan will continue forever. Of course, I hope that this plan will not only become my source of struggle, but also become a channel for everyone here to feed back to society."
Looking at Qiao Zhi who was full of energy on the stage, Tao Rushuang was not only a little dazzled, but at some point, her brother-in-law's temperament changed tremendously, neatly, quick-witted, and calm and composed every move.
After Qiao Zhi stepped down, the female host immediately announced, "The following is the theme link. The national first-class auctioneer Cao Yuyang hosted this charity. I will announce the auction process and rules to you. Each collection has a base price, and the price increase is no less than 10,000 yuan each time. If no one auctions a collection, it will be auctioned by the leader of Qiao at the base price."
Many people here breathed a sigh of relief, especially those celebrities. Although the items they donated were valuable, they could not be ignored. If the filming failed, it would be too shameful.
The rules of the auction activity are designed with considerate consideration, which has relieved many people's concerns.
The charity auction has finally begun. The first item auctioned was "The Shepherd's Cattle Grazing Picture" created by the master of Chinese painting Wang Fenglei for this event.
With just a few strokes, faint lines, the shepherd boy holds the cow rope, rides on the cow's back, raises his head, and carries a straw hat. Even those who do not understand Chinese painting can see a profound artistic conception of harmonious coexistence between man and nature.
Auctionist Cao Yuyang pointed to this Chinese painting and gave a detailed introduction, "Painter Wang Fenglei is an internationally recognized artist. He is not only good at Chinese painting, but also has some research on oil paintings and has a very profound attainment. His works are on the market. A painting of this size is more than one million yuan. Today, the starting price of the charity event is 200,000 yuan. Now it starts!"
As soon as the words were finished, someone immediately started yelling the price.
The guests who came to participate in the auction did not have much force to buy these auction items, depending on their personal wishes.
But some people participated with the idea of finding a bargain.
The items that come to the dinner will not be too expensive. After all, this is not the main purpose of auction, and these items are free gifts to guests attending the banquet.
Wang Fenglei's paintings are very precious on the market because his creations are not high, and each piece is fine, with a price of more than one million.
"I'll pay 800,000!" A middle-aged man in the distance narrowed the price to the market price.
"I'll pay 850,000!" Someone in another place quickly raised his hand.
After 850,000, the scene was silent for a moment, and someone called 950,000, and the middle-aged man immediately called 1,050,000.
Cao Yuyang reminded the guests at the scene that the market value of this product was about one million, but the price was still rising. Finally, the middle-aged man sitting in the southeast corner took the painting for 1.35 million as he wished.
The guests next to him congratulated him, and he looked very happy and clenched his fists.
Wave vigorously in the air.
No one will miss the guests who can come to the scene. The key is to care about the happiness brought by taking the lead.
I originally thought that today's auction would be very popular, but the second item was a bit deserted. After asking for the price twice, it was sold.
The woman who took the item was very happy because she found a vacancy.
Then the staff took a cane brought by Xiang Wanlin. He bought it from a master who specialized in making canes when he was traveling in Germany. The price was 50,000 yuan at that time, and finally auctioned it to 520,000 yuan.
Qiao Zhi observed Xiang Wanlin's condition and showed a look of happiness on his face. Although the thing he cherished the most was taken away, it proved his vision and value, and that feeling was great.
The staff walked up to the stage with a tray, uncovered the golden silk cloth, and a set of knives inlaid with colorful gemstones appeared.
"This auction item was provided by Mr. Qiao Zhi, and it was a knife that accompanied him in battle everywhere. This set of knives was taught to him by his mentor Mr. Zheng Ze, and it can be said to be the treasure of the master. Qiao Zhi asked Mr. Zheng Ze's consent and transferred the knife to someone with destiny through this auction. The starting price is 200,000 yuan."
As soon as the words were finished, everyone at the scene whispered, and many eyes fell on Qiao Zhi.
I have long heard that Qiao Zhi wants to take out his sword for auction.
In many martial arts novels, there is a concept: the sword is in the hands of the sword, and the sword is dead, which shows the degree of importance the swordsman attaches to the sword.
Although Qiao Zhi is not a swordsman in martial arts novels, a chef is also very important to him.
This set of knives has been exposed on many occasions, and everyone familiar with him knows the importance of this collection. Moreover, it has other meanings, so the starting price is 200,000 yuan, which is very attractive.
The bidding sounds were heard one after another on the spot, and even Guo Yan couldn't help but ask the price twice.
In the end, this set of knives was photographed by a strange man for a price of 1.6 million yuan.
Qiao Zhi nodded politely to him.
The strange man smiled faintly at Qiao Zhi.
Next, a lot of good things were auctioned.
For example, the high-quality imitation porcelain works by Xu Fu, a master of Cizhou kiln, and agarwood bracelet purchased more than ten years ago by Zhuo Hang, president of the Ceramics Association.
"Okay, there is an auction item below. Many people here will definitely be very interested. This is donated by Ms. Mu Xiao, a popular domestic female star, and the first trophy for the actress's actress. The starting price is 100,000 yuan." Cao Yuyang said with a smile.
The most eye-catching auction items have finally surfaced. The starting price is not high, so everyone is not ruthless in raising the price.
Sister Fen was nervous sitting in the audience, and she felt relieved when the price reached one million.
However, when the price reached 1.8 million and still not stopping, she felt a little excited.
If the brokerage company arranges people, they will win the trophy at a price of 2 million yuan. If it exceeds 2 million yuan, the brokerage company will give up.
The price quickly exceeded 2 million yuan.
There were not many people bidding on the field, only a young man in his thirties and a middle-aged man in his forties.
In the end, the trophy was sold by the young man in his thirties for 2.75 million yuan.
Chapter completed!
