Chapter 509 Sky-high price!

 The starting price is 300 million!

 Don’t say this is a Blue Star charity dinner.

Even at top-level auctions that smell like copper, there are not many lots that dare to set such a price!

 Audiences from all continents were stunned!

 But what’s more confusing to everyone is what’s behind.

As soon as the host finished speaking, rich people immediately raised their signs!

 “Six hundred million!”

The host's voice trembled, "Marriott Director Zhao has offered 600 million. Do you want to increase the price?"

　　Too cruel!

 Just double it!

 Zhao Leiyin clearly wanted to scare off other bidders in this way.

 “I wipe it!”

 “Is this the financial power of the top rich?”

“As expected of Father Zhao, he directly doubled the auction price of Bai Di’s painting!”

“The price is already equal to last year’s "Lanting Preface"!"

“And the painting "World of Flowers and Birds" by King Chen just now was also tied!"

 “Will this be the final price?”

With so many rich people present, Zhao Leiyin obviously would not let Zhao Leiyin succeed so easily. Another rich man raised a sign:

 “Seven billion!”

 The Qinzhou audience’s hearts skipped a beat!

 “Eight hundred million!”

 The audience in Qizhou was stunned!

 “Nine hundred million!”

The Chuzhou audience’s eyes turned red!

 “I will pay one billion.”

 The Yanzhou audience screamed: "Ouch!"

 “One billion one billion!”

 The Korean audience was trembling.

 “Two billion!”

 Zhao Zhou’s audience was speechless!

"1300000000!"

 The audience in Weizhou was short of breath!

These rich people have a strange tacit understanding, and they actually add 100 million to 100 million!

 As if these are not real money.

 It’s just a numbers game for the rich!

 “Five billion.”

Zhao Leiyin’s face was still calm, he was finalizing this painting!

For this reason, he directly added 200 million, just to tell those wealthy people who want to increase their income from 100 million to 100 million not to be too petty.

 Hear the price.

Even the countless viewers in Central Continent can no longer bear the shock in their hearts!

 “Wori!”

 “Are these rich people crazy!?”

“Is it really worth spending 1.5 billion for a painting?”

“Although I find this painting extremely shocking and can be called the pinnacle of painting art, 1.5 billion is too exaggerated..."

 “Is this the world of the strong?”

“This is no longer a world that ordinary people like us can understand.”

“The key is, you don’t think that 1.5 billion will be the final price, right?”

 I don’t know who said this.

 As expected, another rich man took action at the scene.

 “Seven billion!”

Zhao Leiyin couldn't help but look at the person bidding against him.

The other party smiled at Zhao Leiyin and raised the wine glass in his hand.

This man's name is Sima Ke, and he is the hottest new richest man in Blue Star in the past two years!

certainly.

 The richest man is just a name.

Even Sima Ke doesn’t know who is richer, between himself and Zhao Leiyin. Both of their industries are too complicated.

 There are some special industries whose value cannot be estimated with money at all.

The only thing that is certain is that both Sima Ke and Zhao Leiyin have too much money to spend!

 “Good guy!”

 “Smak takes action!”

 “He is the richest man in Blue Star!”

“The richest man in Blue Star changes to another person every few years. This title is actually just that. What’s really awesome about Smack is that he has been ranked in the top ten of major rich list for decades!”

 “The key point is that Zhao Leiyin is so rich!”

“They won’t fight today, right?”

Along with the teasing and joking, Sima Ke and Zhao Leiyin actually started to get into a fight.

 Because after Sima Ke, Zhao Leiyin was not deterred and said calmly:

"Two billion."

  Smak is increased to 1.7 billion, which is an operation of adding 200 million in one go.

Zhao Leiyin added 300 million in one go, reaching the frightening 2 billion!

this moment.

 Don’t say that audiences from all continents are crazy.

Lin Zhibai couldn't help but feel his scalp itching.

 My paintings are more valuable than I thought.

Although he is not someone who is short of hundreds of millions now, even Lin Zhibai cannot take it lightly with such a huge amount of money.

“These are the top rich people in Blue Star.”

 Lin Zhibai’s industries are mostly related to entertainment.

 They are playing in real estate, technology, Internet, etc., and the level of huge profits is not at the same level.

However, Lin Zhibai’s worries were too great.

With his level of prowess, even if he only works in the entertainment industry in this life, he will definitely be able to stand at the same level as these people or even surpass them in the future.

 After all, Lin Zhibai is only 21 years old!

 The host started shouting: "Two billion times...two billion times..."

 Smucker did not increase the price.

"make a deal!"

The host took down the gavel and said in an unprecedentedly exciting tone:

"Congratulations to Marriott Director Zhao for purchasing Bai Di's painting "Journey to Langshan" for a price of 2 billion. I believe that this price will not only become the highest record since the Blue Star Charity Dinners in the past, but will also not be repeated in the future. There is no auction item that can exceed this price, so I would also like to congratulate Teacher Bai Di, and please give a few words to our Director Zhao..."

 Zhao Leiyin smiled.

"I took this painting for three reasons. The first reason is that I am personally a fan of Mr. Bai Di. I like his music and his calligraphy. The second reason is that my wife particularly likes this painting. , of course I also like it very much, but the price of two billion must be because I love my wife more. As for the third reason, of course it is for charity. I hope that the money can help those in need. people."

 After speaking, he nodded and sat down.

 His wife was already moved and hugged him and kissed him fiercely.

 “Awesome!”

 “It turns out it’s for my wife!”

 “Haha, the second reason is the important point!”

“What should I say now? It was said before that Bai Di was on par with King Chen, but now with this pace, why does it seem like he is going to surpass King Chen!?”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　.

 “Don’t say it yet!”

 “You really don’t want to say it!”

 Wang Chen’s paintings only sold for 600 million.

Lin Zhibai’s paintings were directly sold for 2 billion!

 This gap is so huge, a little more than three times!

Although the reasons may be complicated, for example, the size of Chen Wang’s painting is not as large as Lin Zhibai’s, and another example is that Chen Wang’s painting is his relatively early work and is not well known in history, etc…

  It doesn’t matter what the reason is.

 Speak one thousand words and ten thousand words.

This stark contrast in auction prices is enough to seduce everyone!

 At this moment. No one thinks that it is Lin Zhibai’s honor to be on par with King Chen!

 Because Lin Zhibai proved with his strength today that he is not only the **** of calligraphy, but also the **** of painting!

 …

finally!

 Charity dinner is over!

 Comparing the results of this year’s fundraising in various continents, audiences from all continents were dumbfounded!

Like last year, Qinzhou once again received the highest fundraising figure, because Lin Zhibai’s painting alone contributed 2 billion!

"Depend on!"

 “This is Lin Zhibai!”

 “Within a small space, everyone is on the enemy’s continent!”

“As expected of a ruthless man who fought alone in a continent between Qi and Chu!”

“If you leave Lin Zhibai aside, Qinzhou’s fundraising ranking this year is only sixth!”

 “That’s not the scariest thing.”

“The most terrifying thing is that Lin Zhibai’s two billion, taken alone, is higher than the total amount of donations from any continent!”

 “A person like a god!”

 The most shocking among all continents is the audience in Central Continent.

From Qi Chuwen Dou to this charity dinner, they discovered that Lin Zhibai's power can always be stronger than a continent!

 So.

The entire Central Continent network is frantically posting the phrase "In a small space, everyone is on the enemy's continent", which refers to Lin Zhibai!

Lin Zhibai is of course satisfied with the result.

He believes that after this year's charity dinner, his popularity in Weizhou, Hanzhou and even Yanzhou will greatly increase!

This is indeed the case.

 This side of Yanzhou.

“I finally remember him, Lin Zhibai, the **** of painting!”

 “Ula! Bai Emperor! Not only the emperor of painting, but also the emperor of calligraphy!”

 “Ouch! Lin Zhibai is awesome!”

 This side of Korea.

 “Axi, Bai Di shouldn’t exist in reality!”

“Shouldn’t such a perfect man live in novels or comics?”

 “No novels or comics dare to write like this!”

 This side of Weizhou.

 “Fake, the White Emperor is too strong, even Zhongzhou is no match for him!”

“There are so many people in Zhongzhou, and the total amount of donations raised is 1.3 billion, which is less than a painting by Lin Zhibai!”

 “Is this the most eye-catching man of our time?”



 At the end of the game.

 The reporter’s focus is of course Lin Zhibai!

“What do you want to say about your work’s auction price of two billion?”

When the reporter asked this, Lin Zhibai smiled and said: "In my personal opinion, this painting has such value, because I have decided that whether it is a calligraphy or a painting, I will only take out one piece every year."

“You mean, one piece of calligraphy and one piece of painting every year?”

"No, you misunderstood. What I mean is that every year from now on, I will come up with a piece of calligraphy or a painting."

 Things that are scarce are valuable.

 People spent 2 billion to buy their own paintings.

Lin Zhibai can’t just turn around and paint a bunch of paintings again.

From now on, he will make a rule that there will be only one work every year, either calligraphy or painting.

 These two fields have become gods themselves!

Lin Zhibai believes that as long as this frequency is arranged every year in the future, whether his calligraphy or painting works, as long as he is willing to sell them, the price will definitely start in the hundreds of millions!

But don’t think this frequency is low.

 We assume that Lin Zhibai can live to be one hundred years old—

 There is a system in place, and Lin Zhibai feels that this goal is not an exaggeration.

 Lin Zhibai, who is now twenty-one years old, still has seventy-nine years to live.

In other words, Lin Zhibai’s calligraphy and painting works that have been circulated in the world since then have more than thirty pieces each.

 As an artist.

This number of works is not too small!

 Calculating the prices of these works, Lin Zhibai feels that they are quite profitable!

  After all, he would not use all the remuneration from calligraphy and painting for charity.

 …

the next day.

Each continent network is reported by this charity dinner.

 The most reported news is of course Lin Zhibai’s sale of a painting for 2 billion, which shocked Blue Star!

Interestingly.

 When a reporter asked Blue Star’s painting masters about the level of this painting, what they thought of the price of two billion.

Those painting masters actually said in unison:

“If I had two billion, I would take that painting no matter what I did!”

  The implication is:

This painting by Lin Zhibai is worth two billion!

When evaluating Lin Zhibai’s painting level, these masters also came to the same conclusion:

“He is the only **** in Blue Star’s contemporary painting world.”

 This point has actually been recognized by the public. Now it is just for these authorities to come out and make a final conclusion.

 Lin Zhibai didn’t pay much attention to these.

 He came to Central Continent to implement his "Devil King's Plan"!

 What is the Demon King’s Plan?

 It's very simple, that is, Lin Zhibai wants to become the "big devil" in all major fields!

Jiang Cheng also knew about this plan, and he said: "You have become a **** in the field of calligraphy, and you have also successfully won the field of painting, not to mention poetry and couplets. There are still some disputes now, probably in the field of Go, don't you think so? Knowing the boss counts as the best in Go."

 There was a pause.

Jiang Cheng smiled and said: "So I have arranged a battle for you tonight. Your opponent is Li Shi of Zhongzhou, and he agreed."

"Um."

The so-called Demon King’s Plan is actually a plan to kick out the club.

 Come to Central Continent and compete in various major fields one by one. After building such a big reputation, you should naturally be promoted to the first line.

that's all.

 The next day comes.

 The popularity of the charity dinner has not passed yet, and the discussion about Lin Zhibai is still lively.

“Think about it carefully, Bai Di has already reached the top in many fields!”

“He is the undisputed number one in the other three fields of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, except for Go calligraphy!”

“Poetry, music, couplets, etc., he has also reached the top!”

“It can be said that Lin Zhibai has passed all the areas where Blue Star has the greatest influence!”

 And it is in these discussions.

Blue Star’s No. 1 Go Master!

 Li Shi from Zhongzhou posted a message:

"When discussing Bai Di, there is no need to skip Go. We played three games yesterday and I lost all three games. I believe no one else from Blue Star can beat me three to zero except him - he is the number one in the world. Go player, facing him, I feel that I am not facing a person, but a machine that can calculate carefully!"

Lin Zhibai!

 Be the first in Go!

 In this way, as everyone knows, Lin Zhibai has become the first person in all the fields he is involved in!

The weird thing is…

 Netizens don’t find it strange!

It seems that Li Shi's loss to Lin Zhibai is not surprising at all.

Lin Zhibai was convinced. He felt that the threshold of netizens was now so high that even being ranked No. 1 in the world of Go could not stimulate their emotions.

“How about we continue the live broadcast?”

Jiang Cheng smiled and said: "This is Central Continent. We have a live broadcast in Central Continent and the whole world can watch it."

Lin Zhibai said: "Then what should I sow?"

Jiang Cheng's smile remained unchanged, "Aren't the viewers in Hanzhou, Weizhou and Yanzhou not very familiar with the boss? I think we can consider broadcasting something they like to watch. By the way, let's also apply for star ratings from the rest of these continents. , let’s see how the live broadcast is received in these continents?”

Lin Zhibai was thoughtful.
