Entertaining Children

  Chapter 675 Guitar Auction

  After Xiao Yao said this, Shi Lingqiang had nothing to refute, he could only curl his mouth and shut his mouth in angrily.

   Seeing that Shi Lingqiang was silent, Xiao Yao smiled slightly, put his hands on the strings, ready to start playing, and the scene was quiet.

  In order to show that it was a temporary intention to let Xiao Yao come to the stage to play, the organizer did not connect the audio equipment to the guitar to be auctioned, and did not prepare a microphone stand on site. When Xiao Yao was talking just now, Lu Ke was helping Xiao Yao hold the microphone. Now, if you want the guests in the banquet hall to hear clearly, you can only let the host put the microphone in his hand to the sound hole of the guitar to receive the sound. Amplified.

Xiao Yao was sitting on a chair with a guitar in his arms. Lu Ke's arm was naturally drooping and he could send the microphone to Xiao Yao's mouth. But if he wanted to put the microphone in front of the sound hole of the guitar, Lu Ke had to Bend down. A piece of music lasted three or four minutes. Lu Ke felt that it would be more tiring to bend over, so he simply squatted down on the stage and lifted the microphone diagonally up to the sound hole of Xiao Yao's guitar.

Lu Ke's sudden squat movement frightened Xiao Yao, and then he understood. Then Xiao Yao stood up holding the guitar, moved the mallet and the base on the auction table, and sat down on the auction table. , Smiled and said to Lu Ke: "I think it's more comfortable to sit on the table, and the chair is for you."

   "Thank you!" Lu Ke smiled gratefully to Xiao Yao. Squatting on the ground also didn't look pretty, but she really had to bend down for a few minutes, and she felt that her waist couldn't stand it. This is the lot she is responsible for, and she also mentioned the idea, and she was too embarrassed to ask Xiao Wei next to him to come for her. Although Xiao Yao's behavior when sitting at the table was not very polite and elegant, it was also a manifestation of his alternative gentleman behavior, so Lu Ke also accepted his kindness and got up and sat on the chair where Xiao Yao was originally sitting.

  It is very impolite to sit at a table in a public place, let alone tonight? Xiao Yao’s behavior also scared the guests at the scene, but then they saw Lu Ke, who had originally squatted on the ground, sat on the chair Xiao Yao had sat on before, and raised the microphone to the sound hole of the guitar in Xiao Yao’s hand. Everyone also understood what Xiao Yao meant. Not only did he show no dissatisfaction, but instead gave a round of applause to Xiao Yao's uninhibited character and gentleman's behavior.

  Wait for the applause of the audience to fall, Xiao Yao's hand was also gently plucked on the strings, and a beautiful melody of guitar sounded.

  This song "Wish 桜" was created by the previous life fingerstyle guitarist GIN based on the movie "First Love". It is actually a song about the ambiguous feelings between men and women with a sense of depression. But after all, this is a song that is a little sad and warm. Whether it is the affection between men and women, family affection, or even ordinary people’s concern for the people in the disaster area, it is a kind of bond between people. Under Xiao Yao's introduction, everyone can easily understand this piece as his kind of care for the people in the disaster area. It would be more appropriate to perform it on this occasion tonight.

  Listening to Xiao Yao playing this ethereal and beautiful piece, the guests on the scene felt like their hearts were bathed in sunlight. After Xiao Yao's performance was over, the guests on the scene again gave Xiao Yao a round of warm applause.

   "Thank you!" Xiao Yao jumped off the auction table, bowed to the guests, turned around and handed the guitar in his hand to the ceremonial model standing aside, and was about to leave the stage.

   "Wait," Lu Ke stopped Xiao Yao and said, "The tune just now is so good, I was so touched by it. From today on I will be your fan, can I hug you?"

   "Of course." Xiao Yao nodded and opened his arms with a smile.

   "Xiao Yao, I have been your fan for a long time, and I want to hug it too!" After Xiao Yao and Lu Ke hugged lightly, Xiao Wei on the side also leaned over.

   "Long ago? Then why didn't you just come over to help your idol raise the microphone?" Lu Ke curled his lips.

"Do you think I don't want to?" Xiao Wei counterattacked, "I just don't want to take your opportunity to perform. I don't know for your sake? You can sit comfortably in a chair and rest for a few minutes. Like me, I have to stand from beginning to end."

   "If it was you, I might not want to sit on the table." Xiao Yao smiled.

   "Hey, give me some face, okay? I should just squat on the ground when you are together?" Xiao Wei said dissatisfied, "Not to mention that I am also a fan of yours. We are both surnamed Xiao. We were a family five hundred years ago!

There was some laughter in the audience, Xiao Yao also wanted to laugh a little, so he hurried up and hugged Xiao Wei vigorously, coaxing the child and said: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, give you a loving hug! "

  In another burst of laughter, Xiao Yao let go of Xiao Wei and walked off the stage quickly.

"The auction of this guitar will officially begin now." Xiao Yao stepped down, and Lu Ke brought back the rhythm of the scene, and then introduced, "This guitar was made by Xiao Yao himself. He said he didn't know what to order. The reserve price, so it is uncertain, that is, the lot is auctioned without reserve price. Now the auction starts, please feel free to bid."

   "One hundred thousand!" Lu Ke just finished speaking, a voice raised a placard and shouted.

"The asking price is 100,000. It seems that I really don't need me to help you guarantee the bottom." Yin Xi smiled and said to Xiao Yao, turned his head to look at the offerer, and said with some surprise, "This is not from Huayao Film and Television. Is the boss? You know this boss as well?"

"I don't know," Xiao Yao shook his head, "but there seems to be an email from Hua Yao in my work mailbox asking me to invite me to send a song. They recently invested in a TV series and asked me to help them write the theme song and the ending song. No reply."

   "Writing songs? I thought they wanted you to act in a play." Yin Xi said.

"Have you been short of acting opportunities recently?" Xiao Yao said, "The TV series has not yet started filming. Would you like me to help you get a role? Although I am not very familiar with them, I can become familiar with them after writing songs for them. When you get up, you can start recommending actors to them."

   "No!" Yin Xi said, "It's not your own investment or the directing of the screenwriter's work. I don't want you to use the way of writing songs for others to help me change performance opportunities."

   "Well, whatever you want!" Xiao Yao said indifferently.

   "Two hundred thousand!" Yin Xi shouted with his placard.

   "Why? Didn't you just say that you don't need your guarantee?" Xiao Yao asked unexpectedly.

   "Who said that I want to take care of your face? Can't I take your guitar back and play by myself?" Yin Xi said.

"The recording studio is in your studio. There are a lot of guitars in it. If you want to play, you can go to the recording studio yourself," Xiao Yao said in a low voice, covering his mouth, "Even if you want me to make a guitar, I will pay for it. Yes, just give you one. Why do you still take this?"

   "I'm happy, you care about it!" Yin Xi said.

  "Two hundred and fifty thousand!" Another offer was made.

   "Huh?" Yin Xi looked up at the person who made the offer and found that it was an actress named Zhou Yuqing.

   "I heard that her management company is going to let her get involved in the music industry and develop in multiple directions. It has helped her contact the album producer and is helping her collect songs. Did you also invite songs?" Yin Xi asked Xiao Yao.

   "Yes." Xiao Yao nodded, "There is indeed an invitation email from her agency in the mailbox."

   "How many emails for song invitations are lying in your mailbox?" Yin Xi asked in surprise.

"It turned out to be twenty or thirty letters. After "The Singer", now there are two or three hundred." Xiao Yao said, "but writing songs is not to say that there are things. People don't urge me. Basically, I didn't respond much."

   "Isn't it there? You just went up and played a new original song. Are you embarrassed to say that now?" Yin Xi rolled his eyes and said.

   "Three hundred thousand!" After rolling his eyes, Yin Xi raised his placard and said.

  "Five hundred thousand!" Someone quoted again.

  Yin Xi looked at the quoter again. This time, I don’t need to ask Xiao Yao any more, because she found that Li Ai was the quotation. She had expected that Li Ai might come forward to support Xiao Yao, but she didn't expect that Li Ai's price would be so high.

   "The tennis sister really wants you to go to the scene to cheer for her!" Yin Xi looked at Xiao Yao and smiled.

   "It seems that I really have to take time to watch her game live, and support her." Xiao Yao also smiled.

  Knowing why Li Ai made the offer, Yin Xi didn't plan to **** Li Ai again this time, but someone on the scene still made a higher offer.

  "800,000!" Someone raised a placard and said.

   "Huh?" Everyone looked at the person who offered this placard and found that it was Shi Lingqiang, and they showed unexpected expressions. The news that Xiao Yao and Yin Xi knew were also known to others at the scene. The first few people had their own reasons for quoting Xiao Yao's guitar. It is not surprising to participate in the auction, but Shi Lingqiang will bid for Xiao Yao's guitar. It was unexpected. Judging from the situation just now, the most famous rich second generation is obviously a little bit at odds with Xiao Yao, the most famous star second generation. Why are you now bidding to take photos of Xiao Yao's stuff?

  "Why did he take pictures of you?" Yin Xi was as curious as everyone else, but she was different from others in that she had any doubts in her heart, so she could ask Xiao Yao in person.

"Where do I know?" Xiao Yao shrugged, "but I can speculate maliciously. The price of 500,000 has exceeded the final transaction price of many of the previous lots. I will not be ashamed anyway. Since I did it. Something, maybe Young Master Shi wanted to take it back and smashed it to vent his anger."

   "Really? He wouldn't be so boring, right?" Yin Xi stared.

   "Didn't you say that those rich second generations can do everything?" Xiao Yao smiled.

   "Didn't you say that he is not like an ordinary 纨纨, is he still more measured?" Yin Xi also said.

"He's already very restrained and measured when he doesn't smash the guitar in public on stage for a while. Isn't it okay to smash it at home? People don't care about the 1.8 million yuan. Why don't you spend the money to vent it?" Xiao Yao smiled.

   "Huh, how can it be so easy?" Yin Xi snorted, then raised the number plate and shouted, "One million!"

   "What are you doing?" Xiao Yao said in surprise, "You said me just now, what are you fighting with him now?"

   "Learn from you, let him put a little blood, even if he really slaps your guitar back and smashed it, it will make the movement in his heart a bit louder." Yin Xi said.

   "One and a half million!" Shi Lingqiang really raised the number plate and continued to increase the price.

   "I just have a temper, and I'm not a brain-dead idiot. What if I don't play with you and hit your hand?" Xiao Yao said silently.

   "I have a sense of measure and will not shout prices. If he doesn't play anymore, I will bring the guitar back." Yin Xi said.

   "Two million!" Yin Xi also raised the number plate again.

   "Isn't this shouting?" Xiao Yao rolled his eyes.

   "Two hundred and five, no, 2.6 million!" Shi Lingqiang raised the number plate, adjusted his quotation, and then turned to Yin Xi's side.

   "Okay." Yin Xi put down the number plate in his hand and looked at Xiao Yao, "Your guitar is today's standard king, and it is more expensive than my necklace."

  "2.6 million for the first time!" Yin Xi put down the number plate, and no new quotation appeared on the scene. Lu Ke began to announce the highest quotation on the scene to remind everyone.

  "2.6 million for the second time!" Lu Ke repeated once, and picked up the mallet on the table, "2.6 million third..."

   "Three million!" Another voice rang at the scene.

"Why is it her? Is IIG going to enter the entertainment industry?" Because of the previous bidding, everyone at the scene was paying attention to the table of Shi Lingqiang and Xiao Yao and Yin Xi. When they saw Yin Xi put down the number plate, most of them were I thought that this time it was Shi Lingqiang who wanted to buy the auctions on stage again, but he didn't expect that something happened before Lu Ke dropped the hammer. Everyone turned to look at the sound of the quotation, and was surprised to find that the person who offered the quotation was actually the president of the Asia-Pacific region of IIG and a legendary woman in the business world-Leng Qiu Ning!

  IIG is one of the largest financial investment groups in the world. This Leng Qiuning is the highest person in charge of IIG Asia Pacific. Although her own net worth is not necessarily comparable to the assets of Shi Lingqiang's family, the amount of wealth she can control and mobilize is more than that of the richest man who is stronger than Shi Ling. It’s just that IIG has never been involved in China’s entertainment industry in the Asia-Pacific region. There should be no intersection with Xiao Yao, nor any interest relationship. The vast majority of people on the scene didn’t know the cold president of a purely business person. Why did you suddenly bid for Xiao Yao's guitar at a high price?

  Shi Lingqiang is not a worthless second-generation ancestor, and naturally he also knows the head of this top multinational group in the Asia-Pacific region. This kind of person with huge wealth dominating power, even his father would not easily offend him, let alone him? He didn't know whether the Leng Zong had anything to do with Xiao Yao, or what was the relationship with Xiao Yao, so he was silent with some doubts and doubts in his heart.

   Xiao Yao also looked at the bidding guest, and Leng Qiuning also looked to him. When they met their eyes, they both smiled and nodded, which was regarded as a greeting.

  "You don't have friendship with this President Leng, are you?" Yin Xi next to him looked at Xiao Yao in surprise.

  Yin Xi is responsible for the operation of the studio and the brand, and he naturally knows this kind of business man. On the contrary, Xiao Yao has always been a shopkeeper. Apart from designing a few costumes and looking for opportunities to advertise, he basically doesn't care about any business matters. That animation film has not yet begun to raise foreign funds. Based on Xiao Yao's experience, he and the big business man should not have any intersection, they have never seen each other, let alone friendship.

   "There was a fate," Xiao Yao said, "but that was two years ago."

   "Two years ago? Aren't you still in high school at that time?" Yin Xi guessed, "I met when I was an exchange student in the United States?"

   "No, I met in a private occasion in China Yanjing." Xiao Yao said. "I helped her casually."

  "Can you still help her?" Yin Xi was even more strange, "Or casually?"

"I'll tell you later." Xiao Yao smiled, "It looks like Master Shi doesn't plan to fight with Zong Leng anymore. That's okay, at least Zong Leng took my guitar back. It will definitely not be the same as Master Shi. Smashed it for fun."

   "Three million for the first time!" Lu Ke waited for a while, and saw that Shi Lingqiang hadn't moved, so he could only remind him.
