In the auction venue, some people had already stood up and left, presumably giving up the remaining competitive bids.
Investors who have already won the bid must wait until the auction ends and complete the delivery procedures before they can leave.
So, wait for the auction to be completed, and take a look at the excitement to see who can get the largest lot today.
Those wealthy financial groups that were originally interested in this piece of land, as well as those who were unwilling to win the bid for previous projects, as well as many joint investors, have begun to take action.
"6.55 billion!"
"7.11 billion!"
"7.55 billion!"
"7.59 billion!"
Within 5 minutes, the auction price was called nearly 7.6 billion, which was already the pre-estimated limit price.
Further up is the over-limit price. Whether it is profitable or not depends on other policy factors.
At this time, several people who started to participate gradually withdrew, and there are currently only three bidders, all based on the minimum base of 10 million.
Every time I quote before the third call, I obviously feel huge pressure. I don’t know if a dark horse suddenly appears in the follow-up, causing all previous efforts to be wasted.
Mu Liang unusually did not participate in the early bidding, which made everyone feel strange. At the same time, thinking that the Stroll family had not spoken, they had some suspicions.
Several tycoons who were competing also realized this and hurriedly discussed with reliable people around them, and some even made a phone call.
"7.61 billion!" When the auctioneer said the second time, Mu Liang raised the number plate in his hand.
"The kid numbered 0127 was very active today. This is his first bid this round. It seems that he has the support of his family. Let's wait and see how he will bid next."
The auctioneer saw that the price was slowly rising and was about to peak. He was anxious when he suddenly heard that a new person had joined the auction.
"7.71 billion!"
There are new people joining the battle group, causing the war to expand again.
"Discerning, 7.71 billion! The guest numbered 0017 made an extraordinary move and directly added 100 million, which is so courageous. If I guessed correctly, this is Mr. Sobbins, the famous Quantum Foundation in the world. I have already won a piece of land in the previous bidding, and I am sure I will win it this time as well.”
The auctioneer's eyes were shining, his face was red, and he tried his best to activate the competition enthusiasm of the whole audience.
It's a pity that he was selling hard on the stage, but there were only discussions in the audience, and no one raised the placard to bid.
The previous bidders all quit after Mu Liang reported the numbers and no longer raised their hands.
The auctioneer chatted for a while and saw that the results were not very good. He looked around the audience and focused on Mu Liang and his son. After another half minute of rambling, he felt that it was really boring and had to start to close the auction.
"The customer numbered 0017 bids 7.71 billion! If you are still interested, please hurry up."
"7.71 billion! First time."
The auctioneer scanned the room, waiting for new surprises to appear.
"7.71 billion! The second time."
The auctioneer has given up hope. The price has exceeded the pre-expected peak. As long as the hammer falls, he will also receive a generous bonus, and he is already happy.
The audience was quiet, and hundreds of people stared at the host at the front desk, waiting for the final sound of the hammer falling.
They also feel that this price has at least reached the limit, and there is really no need to raise the price unless it is an act of anger.
Of course, there were also people who didn't give up and secretly glanced at Mu Liang and his son. When they saw the two sitting still, they felt relieved, and the remaining trace of expectation was gone.
Solly Strauer knew the inside story, but he was indifferent and expressionless, and no one could tell.
Little Lebby couldn't bear his temper, turned his head and looked at Mu Liang in surprise, wondering why his little cousin still didn't speak. "8 billion!"
Just when the auctioneer was about to call out for the third time, Mu Liang raised his number, nodded and smiled at Lebby, and quoted his maximum price.
"OK!"
Little Lebby made a "V" sign and lip-synced to her little cousin.
The corner of Mei Lanyin's mouth twitched, then returned to normal immediately, pretending to be unresponsive as if nothing had happened, expressing silent support.
"Ah, you can't be joking, right?"
"The price is so high, can it be repaid in the near future? I wonder."
"It seems that the Mu family boy is not patient enough after all and is a little competitive."
"I didn't see his mother nearby. It seemed like nothing happened. He must have nodded."
Everyone in the audience was quiet when they suddenly heard someone adding nearly 300 million chips. After reacting, they were in an uproar and started talking among themselves.
The auctioneer, who was just about to drop the hammer, shook his hand and almost dropped the hammer. He was so frightened that he quickly clenched his hands and put it aside.
If he accidentally knocks the wrong key, his career will be over.
Mu Liang stood up slowly, clasped his hands in an ancient Chinese ritual, and bowed to the audience.
The voice was loud and clear: "I said before, I just follow the big guys to learn experience. They come to throw big money, and I will throw small money to play. I am a child and don't understand the rules. If I have offended you, please forgive me, uncles and aunts. Please forgive me."
After saying these words, Mu Liang handed the number plate to his mother in front of everyone and sat back down.
"8 billion! The kid numbered 0127 behaved very calmly. He gave me too many surprises today. It seems that a new king is about to emerge in the business world."
The auctioneer used the crowd to focus on Mu Liang, and finally calmed down and steadied his pace. He looked gratefully at the handsome young man who came to the rescue, and he did not hesitate to praise him.
Quantum Foundation Sobbins, who was sitting in the first few rows, turned his head and glanced at Mu Liang with his peripheral vision, with an indifferent smile on his lips, then lowered his head to listen to his son Soros's opinions, then shook his head slightly and ignored the stage. The auctioneer looked at him inquiringly.
How could he, who was sensitive to the situation at the venue, fail to see that Mu Liang's words and deeds had blocked his chance to make another offer?
Under the premise that the price is so over the limit and the kid has made it clear that he will give up trying to raise the price again, if he raises the price forcefully without regard for dignity, he will not only be disgraceful and lose the price, but he will also be suspected of being angry with the child, and he will become a Deliberately suppressing the rookie king’s jokes.
The auctioneer is experienced and seems to be a casual flattery, but when it comes out in such a public place, and everyone is talking about it, it is invisibly devaluing his identity.
"Boy is awesome!"
Thinking of this, Sobbins had a real impression of the student who ranked first in points at the Earth Star Elite Academy.
Looking at his son's impulsiveness, he sighed secretly in his heart and planned to enlighten him when he went back, so as not to suffer losses in future competitions.
"8 billion! The third time, the deal is done."
The auctioneer saw that everyone in the audience was staring at his gavel, and it was clear that no one was tempted anymore, so he readily made the final decision.
I don’t know who took the lead, but the whole audience applauded sparsely, which could be regarded as an encouragement to the smallest bidder to complete the highest bid.
The final bid No. 27 only has 11 acres of land. It is still a protruding part and is not suitable for anything.
The starting price was only 300 million Chinese coins. After several rounds of bidding, no one responded, and it was auctioned off by a consortium at a low price of 430 million Chinese coins.
At this point, the entire auction is over, and all that is left is to go through the delivery procedures.
The representative of the SAR gave a brief speech of thanks and then announced the dismissal.
Under the guidance of the staff, all successful bidders were invited to the large reception hall on the third floor to wait, and were handed over according to the bid section number.
Melanin, mother and son, naturally sat together with Solly Strauer and Leiby. They did not discuss the investment plan for the land auction, but instead talked about the preparations of the Strauer family to go to Mars to explore minerals.
Just when Makiliang was about to show off his abilities to Lebby, he heard the adults talking about space exploration. He immediately became interested and listened carefully to see if there was anything interesting.
The fact that the Strauer family was the first to order multi-functional integrated mining equipment in space has long been known to everyone. It is not a secret. There is no need to worry about what others will say.
By eavesdropping, at best you can get some superficial information.
These things cannot be hidden from the public eye, and there is no use knowing them in advance.
While several people were having a heated discussion, Sobbins of the Quantum Foundation, who was delayed for unknown reasons, entered the reception hall with his son Soros, and was guided by the staff to the empty seat next to Melanin and the others.
"These two are my son Soros's classmates, Makura-san and Lebby-san, right?"
Sobbins took the initiative to talk to them and at the same time greeted the Melanin brothers and sisters.
"Hello, uncle, Mr. Thoros is also here to watch the fun."
Mu Liang hurriedly stood up and returned the greeting, maintaining the necessary respect.
"Hello, elder, hello Soros."
Lebby was a little embarrassed by his seniority, so he could only agree vaguely.
"Hello uncle and aunt, hello two classmates."
Soros looked at the two men who were half a head shorter than him and quickly regained his confidence with a smile on his face.
Although the classmates were not quite right with each other, they were still young and experienced in the world, and their friendship with each other day and night was relatively pure. They immediately found an investment competition topic of common concern, and each of them chatted about their own ideas.
Sobbins shook hands with the Thori Stroll brother and sister who had stood up. While continuing the topic of Mars exploration, he casually glanced at the three little guys. Seeing his son's demeanor, he felt relieved in his heart.
A businessman should never leave his profession.
In just 20 minutes, a deal was concluded.
Stroll Family Mars Expedition, Sobbins has the first priority to purchase experience materials.
The Mei Lanyin brothers knew what they were talking about. Sobbins must have just heard the discussion among the four people and just used his son's classmate relationship to strike up a conversation. This was probably his true purpose.
Haste makes waste, and things will come naturally.
Sobbins has accurate analysis, quick response, good grasp of trends, and extraordinary intelligence. His ability to dominate the ever-changing financial world shows that this person has excellent IQ, emotional intelligence, and political intelligence.
"Komaki-kun, your performance today was very exciting and left a deep impression on everyone. You are the newbie in the future business world. I am looking forward to this day."
The staff came over and asked Sobbins to go through the formalities. Before leaving, he specially greeted Mu Liang with a smile on his face, showing that he attached great importance to the newcomers.
"Uncle, your excessive praise will make me fly into the sky. Falling down will not be fun."
Mu Liang said mischievously, making exaggerated pointing gestures to the sky.
"This guy is used to being glib. Mr. Sobbins, please don't worry about it."
Melanin "taught" his son in a timely manner, allowing Sobbins to step down.
"It's normal for children to be straightforward. Komaki-san's humorous image has been well known before. I like this unique style very much. If you have time, you are welcome to come to my house for a gathering. It will be an honor for my whole family."
After saying that, Sobbins took out four golden business cards and handed them to Melaine's four people respectively. Then he turned around apologetically and led his son Soros to go through the formalities.
"I didn't expect this old guy to be really willing to work hard."
Solly Stroll admired in a low voice, put away the business card and continued to discuss the unfinished topic with Melaine.
"Is this card gold-plated or alloy? It seems a bit valuable."
Mu Liang looked at the job titles, contact numbers and other contents printed on it and asked in confusion.
