After looking at the statue, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch. Up to the end of the auction, there are still more than a dozen auctions. Du Lin has not participated in the auction and has not expressed his dedication and love for the society. That is incorrect. Of course, he can also take pictures of the things in the back. He turned over the album again. Most of the things in the back are works of art and paintings.
After the rapid economic recovery of the Empire in recent years, the prices of various works of art began to rise by leaps and bounds. In the past, the works of second-class artists who could only sell three or five hundred yuan can now be sold to thousands. Naturally, these second-class artists have also changed into first-class artists.
The art market has begun to show signs of chaos. Compared with those inexplicable paintings, the statue looks more pleasing to the eye. He raised the sign in his hand and turned it over.
The young auctioneer immediately understood it and shouted in a high tone with a slight exaggeration, "Wow, Mr. durin offered two thousand yuan, which is really a heavy bomb. Such a big increase is very rare in this charity auction!" it''s not a big deal to directly change from more than one thousand yuan to two thousand yuan, But the way the auctioneer said it gave people a feeling that Du Lin really stepped on the horse, really stepped on the horse with money, and really stepped on the horse with a lot of money.
When a rich man does something, others will only look up to him, but when an outstanding person among a group of rich people comes to the fore, it is inevitable that someone will be stupid and want to try, especially this price increase will step on others'' faces and shout.
The cardinal sat quietly watching the auction. He was very excited. These are not very important things in the church inventory. He could sell so much money. After going back, he can consider cleaning up several big warehouses. Maybe he can find some unimportant things.
At the instigation of the auctioneer, however, no one refuted Du Lin''s face, which is also one of the biggest features of the charity auction - a higher bid means that the bidder has a strong desire to get the auction items. Most of this happens when the bidder bids for the items sent by himself.
For example, I send a accessory worth 1000 yuan to participate in the shooting. When it comes to this item, the owner of the item will shout out the price of 2000 yuan or 3000 yuan to show that it belongs to me. Now I donate several times the price to buy it back. Don''t rob me. This is my favorite thing. It looks good in face.
Of course, there are exceptions sometimes. There is no shortage of people in the world who have unique ideas and like to break the rules. Most of the time, upstarts are the representatives of such people. They bid several times or even ten times the price to the original owner, or they stay. In fact, their bidding is not entirely to break the rules or like this thing. Many times they are to praise the scene of the original owner, but they don''t know. This will not have any good effect, but will make people feel that they are impolite.
Except for this item, because the people of the church didn''t bid, others were relatively free to shout. However, Turin still showed his will. Others also smiled at Turin, closed their mouths and congratulated him in advance on getting the statue.
After three hammer drops, the statue belongs to Turin.
There was not much trouble until all the goods were auctioned. Du Lin, the cardinal and two noble representatives boarded the rostrum. After the charity auction, there was a charity fund-raising, which was linked. Otherwise, how could Du Lin donate his real estate worth hundreds of millions to the city hall in front of so many celebrities, How can you show that you are an excellent young entrepreneur with a sense of social responsibility?
After two times of humility, the microphone was handed over to Turin. He smiled, nodded his thanks to the cardinal and noble representatives, and took a step forward. "Thank you very much for taking the time to participate in this charity event, thank you..." after a burst of applause, he seemed to think of something interesting and suddenly smiled, "My origin is known to all..." this sentence made people realize why he would laugh and smiled knowingly. "Yes, I''m a farmer''s son. I''ve never avoided it, because I don''t think it''s a shame. I''ll be proud of it. I''ll tell everyone that I''m a farmer''s son!"
"When I was young, I tasted the taste of poverty and the stench of despair. I deeply know that in a corner of this society that is not concerned, there are a group of people in need of help who slowly decay in the black despair of death."
"They need our help. Maybe just a few dollars can save a father, a mother and even a family."
He took a deep breath, spit it out again, and his tone became deep. "The sun can''t shine on them, and no one can help them. They can only fall into the abyss in despair and rot in the corners of society." when he said this, he paused a little, brewing the atmosphere, and then suddenly his tone became as excited as a volcanic eruption, "But we can!"
"The sun can''t warm them, we can!"
"Faith can''t fill them, we can!"
"As long as we lend a helping hand, we can save countless families in this society, let them deviate from the most miserable track in life, let them get a new life and bathe in the warm sunshine again!"
"This helping hand is called charity!"
"Everyone has the right to live. What others can''t give them, let''s give it!"
"Today, everyone''s efforts are not meaningless. It''s not for you to have a decent topic when chatting, because we are really doing good deeds. We have helped others. This should not be a kind of talk, it should be an insult to charity, it should be a kind of pride!"
"I have helped more people out of the dilemma in the way I can. I can see the tears on their faces when they are redeemed, and I can also see their bright smiles when they move towards a new life. This is a great force and a great force that deeply shocks the whole mankind!"
"Some stupid people say charity is a kind of hypocrisy. I despise them. There is no nobler person in this world than us, because we help others without asking for return, because we have kindness, kindness and awe of life!"
"If you want to understand how to be a person, you must first know how to fear life!"
"That''s what we''ve been doing and will continue to do!"
Durin said there was a slight wheezing here. He was roaring almost the whole time. There was no sound on the whole lawn. Only his voice was spreading and was taken farther by the wind. He paused for a moment, his voice calmed down, and he showed a smile again. His dazzling smile was really like a shining smile, "In my own name, I will donate one million to help all those in need, and I will set up a charity foundation, invest tens of millions of funds and use 50% of my income for charity."
"I may not be able to help everyone who needs me, but I will do my best to help everyone who I have the ability to help them. I am not noble or pure. I just want peace of mind and awe of life!"
He bowed slightly and saluted everyone, "thank you, thank you for listening to me patiently, and thank everyone who has love for the care of vulnerable groups. You are all angels."
When Dooling stepped back, everyone stood up and applauded him. What he said may not have much skill, but it was enough to shake people''s hearts. The long applause was the best annotation to what he said.
The reporters on one side were crazy and recorded what Du Lin had just said in his notebook. The magnesium light was on again and again. All reporters knew that tomorrow''s news would explode!
With these words, the cardinal decided to shut up after sliding his throat twice, and then handed the microphone to the two noble representatives behind. The two noble representatives always kept a decent smile. They looked at each other and didn''t say anything to resonate. They just followed Turin silently and donated 500000.
With such an opening, all the people who participated in the charity event gave generously, with 1000 yuan less and tens of thousands more, which made the cardinal laugh. This time, he really made a lot of money. As for the slight attack on the issue of faith in what Turin just said... Is that a problem?
Is it?
Are you?
?
Of course not!
After everyone raised money and was about to end, Dooling came to the stage again and announced a news himself.
"I will be engaged to Miss Ophelia timamont in the near future. This invitation can also be used as an invitation to my engagement ceremony. In addition, in order to thank God for bringing my dear Ophelia to me, I will donate 30% of the real estate in Otis..."
The next day, almost all the newspapers reported what Du Lin said when raising money after the charity auction. Sentence by sentence, coupled with Du Lin''s arm waving to the sky and angry eyes in the photo, the newspapers were sold out in an instant.
People once again extracted the phrase "socially responsible capitalist" from their memory. Countless compliments were thrown on Turin without money, and even margus was shocked.
Looking at the photos with almost the same content in several newspapers, Maggs rubbed his temples - this bastard''s skin itched if he didn''t get on the news for a few days!
