Signing in at the workplace: Rejecting the female president at the beginning

Chapter 406 Sudden Auction

Before leaving get off work this afternoon, Bai Ning received a call from Mr. Zuo.

"Hello?" Bai Ning picked up the phone.

Mr. Zuo's voice came from the other side of the phone: "Tonight Ma Yuanhan suddenly wants to organize an auction. I don't know if something happened at home or in business. He will suddenly auction some of the auctions tonight. Are you interested in the collection you have collected? Come and see it?"

Ma Yuanhan... Why is this name so familiar? Bai Ning quickly searched for this name in his head, but he didn't find any connection with this person. Maybe it's just that he didn't know where he heard this name.

"Who is Ma Yuanhan?" Bai Ning asked with some doubts.

"A collector, he was quite famous a few years ago, and he did a lot of good deeds for the country and the people. You know the name of the garden?" Mr. Zuo asked.

"Well, I know, isn't that in Kyoto, the royal garden that was destroyed by the invaders back then."

"I know who it is!" Bai Ning suddenly realized that he knew who it was. This Ma Yuanhan bought back a lot of domestic cultural relics in foreign auction houses, and then donated them to the country for free.

Among them, the most famous one is the animal head that Yuanmingyuan will spit water on time. One of them was photographed by Ma Yuanhan in a foreign auction house and donated to the country free of charge.

This can be regarded as the most glorious moment of Ma Yuanhan's life.

After that, I seldom listened to this person.

"Well, it's the old man who donated the beast's head back then. He sent a message in the antique circle in Kyoto today that he will auction off his life's collection at a hotel near Panjiayuan tonight," Mr. Zuo said.

"Isn't this calling you to see if you can go?"

"Go! Mr. Ma is also a person who has made great contributions to our country and our nation. I have to go and praise this event!" Bai Ning said firmly.

"Okay, I'll send you the time and place later, how many people are you coming tonight?" Mr. Zuo asked.

"Let's go there, two people! Send me the time and place later." Bai Ning said after thinking for a while.

"Row!"

After the two hung up the phone, Bai Ning sat on the office chair and thought about it.

Bai Ning is definitely going to praise this event, not for anything else, just for Ma Yuanhan to donate animal heads for the country, Bai Ning knows the preciousness of animal heads, a single animal head is worth hundreds of millions, who can have this courage Can people be ordinary people?

Bai Ning asked himself if he could do this?

This is probably a question mark.

After thinking about it, Bai Ning immediately called Ye Chuxia: "Hey Chuxia, come to an auction with me tonight, an auction for a patriotic collector."

After Ye Chuxia picked up the phone, she immediately agreed when she heard Bai Ning's tone was heavy, and asked Bai Ning, "What time is it? I'll go with you!"

"I'll pick you up later, I'll wait for Mr. Zuo to send me the time and place."

"Mr. Zuo told you?" Ye Chuxia heard Mr. Zuo's name.

"Yes! You just called me!" Bai Ning replied.

"Okay! Then come and find me later, I'll take care of the matter at hand, soon." Ye Chuxia said immediately.

After Bai Ning and Ye Chuxia hung up the phone, Bai Ning received a text message from Mr. Zuo.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Bai Ning went to find Ye Chuxia, and brought Ye Chuxia to the side of his Bentley Continental. After the two got into the car, Ye Chuxia asked Bai Ning, "What patriotic collector?" ah?"

After Bai Ning told Ye Chuxia about Ma Yuanhan's story, Ye Chuxia also felt a little bit embarrassed: "You can't let such a patriotic collector feel cold!"

"Yes, there will be quite a few people in the collection circle who should be here tonight." Bai Ning nodded.

Bai Ning drove Ye Chuxia to the parking lot. Already in the parking lot, he saw Mr. Zuo waiting for them. When he saw Bai Ning's car, Mr. Zuo immediately came up to him.

After Bai Ning parked the car, he got out of the car, and greeted Mr. Zuo with Ye Chuxia.

"This way!" Mr. Zuo immediately guided Bai Ning and Ye Chuxia towards the venue.

After entering the venue, Bai Ning and Ye Chuxia found a place to sit down.

The auction will start soon.

As the host of this time, Ma Yuanhan walked from behind the scenes to the front of the stage. Bai Ning had seen photos of Ma Yuanhan in the news and newspapers before. At that time, Ma Yuanhan was also very popular because of the fact that he donated the animal head. Son.

In those few years, Ma Yuanhan looked very young, suave and suave, and he was also the kind of figure who called the wind and rain in the international and domestic auction markets. The classic moment when he photographed the animal head really inspired the people of the country.

That was one of the animal heads lost in Yuanmingyuan, a real national treasure. It was bought back by Ma Yuanhan at a huge price and donated to the National Museum. It can also be seen in the National Museum now.

I just don't know why, after a period of time, Ma Yuanhan seldom showed up at major auctions. According to legend, there was a problem with the funds and the company.

These are all Mr. Zuo told Bai Ning.

At this time, Ma Yuanhan's black hair was mixed with a lot of white hair, he looked a little old, and his expression looked a little haggard.

"Hello everyone, thank you for coming to my auction tonight, I feel very honored."

"Everyone must have heard that my company was almost unable to survive a few years ago because of funding problems. In recent years, the economy has been in recession and the company is on the verge of bankruptcy. In order to save the company, I had to put my The year's collection will be put up for auction and exchanged for some money to maintain the company's operations." Ma Yuanhan stood on the stage, looked around, and said straight to the point.

As soon as Ma Yuanhan's words fell, there were sighs around Bai Ning in the audience, and most of those who sighed were Ma Yuanhan's former friends, and they should have a better understanding of Ma Yuanhan's experience.

Bai Ning didn't feel deeply.

To be honest, the economic downturn has a huge impact on every businessman. Many people's companies went bankrupt, and many people survived.

"Thank you for coming to the auction today, and for giving Ma Yuanhan some face!" Ma Yuanhan cupped his fists towards the bottom.

"Today's auction items are all my collections for many years. They are all treasures! I hope that all friends who took pictures of today's auction items will treat them well after taking them back, cherish them, and love them." Ma Yuanhan continued.

"Papa, papa, papa!" Applause resounded in the hall, and Bai Ning couldn't help being moved by this old collector.

Ye Chuxia was also clapping beside her.
