Chapter 3783 Don’t Let the 100,000 Be Wasted

‘Huangdi Neijing’ wine became popular immediately under the strong promotion of such a lively spokesperson like Li Zeju. Think about it, the biggest problem of the Li family was solved just by saying it would be solved. What else can’t be solved? For those wealthy people in Hong Kong who can’t have children, this is the secret recipe to change their fate. Moreover, even if they don’t want to have children, it is also good to improve their sex life. For men, if they are more capable in some aspects, they can also have a more harmonious and enjoyable sex life.

However, what makes these wealthy people crazy is that they can’t buy it on the market for the time being. If they want it, they can only apply through Li Zekai, and then they can buy it after approval. This time, it made them crazy. When will this approval be?

Fortunately, Li Zekai soon held an auction, auctioning a total of 10 bottles of ‘Huangdi Neijing’. Among them, there are 4 bottles of ordinary version, with a base price of 998 yuan. The exclusive version has a base price of 1998 yuan, with a total of 3 bottles, and the supreme version has a base price of 9998 yuan, with a total of 2 bottles. There is also a bottle of the Supreme Luxury Collection Edition, with a reserve price of 88,888 yuan per bottle. There are a total of ten bottles, and all wealthy people are welcome to bid. There is only one auction opportunity before the official sale. According to Li Zekai, the official sale will be on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, during the Little New Year.

So it will take two months before it is officially released. So these 10 bottles of "Huangdi Neijing" wine are really hard to come by. It will take at least two months to go on the market. What should we do two months ago? All of a sudden, this Sotheby's auction became popular immediately. Early in the morning, the auction venue was full. And many wealthy people came and had no place to sit. In the end, Sotheby's auction house had to temporarily change the auction venue and move these 10 bottles of "Huangdi Neijing" wine to Sotheby's largest auction venue.

Originally, Sotheby's thought that having seats for 200 people would be the limit. After all, it was only 10 bottles of wine. Moreover, this ‘Huangdi Neijing’ is also newly released, and it is still unknown whether it really has such a magical effect. In this case, Sotheby’s auction house naturally inferred that there would not be too many wealthy people coming to participate in the auction. Especially a bottle of wine is so expensive!

As a result, 500 people squeezed in with 200 seats, and it was impossible not to change the venue! But until the auction started, Sotheby’s couldn’t figure out why these wealthy people were so crazy to come to auction such expensive wine. This is too expensive!

Of course, compared with those expensive foreign wines in the world, this price is not high. However, those are all internationally renowned brands of foreign wines, each with a history of hundreds or even hundreds of years. And this ‘Huangdi Neijing’ is less than half a year. Even if its parent company ‘Wahaha’ is counted, it is less than 50 years. How could such a brand have so many people coming to auction!

But this is the world. Just because you can’t understand it doesn’t mean it won’t happen. Looking at the auction venue with 500 people, which was full, Sotheby’s auctioneer was puzzled. He couldn't figure out why these wealthy people were so crazy to fight for this "Huangdi Neijing" wine! This is incredible!

"Boss, it's really strange. Logically, there shouldn't be so many people coming to the auction!" Lin Chiling also looked strange.

She and Lin Feng stayed at home in Shanghai and broadcast live via satellite video signals. It was thanks to the Li family's status and privileges in Hong Kong, and Lin Feng's extraordinary identity, that Sotheby's auction agreed to this condition. Through the video, seeing so many wealthy people squeeze into the venue to bid for this "Huangdi Neijing" wine, it was really incredible.

"Haha, this is not surprising." Lin Feng smiled faintly, confident, "First of all, the rich have a demand for this 'Huangdi Neijing' wine. After all, as a man, no one doesn't want to be better in that aspect.

Especially some rich people who can't have children, they are even more eager to get it. Of course, even if there are no these two points, even if it is just a bottle of water, ordinary water, as long as the Hong Kong Li family says it is good, then there will be people chasing after it. Just like if I say something is good one day, even if it is a piece of stone, you take it to auction, there will be people chasing after it. Their purpose is not because this thing is so good, but for the people who have said that something is good!"

Lin Chiling thought about it carefully, with a look of astonishment on her face. This is too exaggerated. Is this the extent of flattery?

"Haha, this is much more advanced than flattery. And all the bidders this time, the Li family will be more or less grateful. So, these people are so enthusiastic. And their mentality happened to be used by Li Zekai. Haha, it seems that a sky-high price will be sold today!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

While Lin Feng was watching from behind, the auction began.

"The auction begins now. The first item to be auctioned today is the ordinary version of "Huangdi Neijing", the land price is 998 yuan!" The auctioneer slammed the auction hammer, "This is the latest medicinal wine developed by Wahaha Company, and Mr. Lin Feng specially provided the formula. It has the effect of nourishing the body and the effect of yin and yang. And it is said to have the effect of inducing labor. The auctioneer, Mr. Li Zekai, and his elder brother, Mr. Li Zeju, have both drunk it. In addition, his girlfriend and wife are already pregnant." The auctioneer briefly introduced the beginning and end of the "Huangdi Neijing" and the story, "Please bid now!"

Silence! After the auctioneer shouted the auction, there was silence. No one made an offer. There was silence for a full minute, and no one made a bid.

What's going on? The auctioneer was dumbfounded! He is the best auctioneer at Sotheby's, and no auctioneer has ever failed to sell the wine. Is he going to lose his reputation today? The first auctioneer at Sotheby's stared with disbelief. How could this happen? Even if he was not optimistic about this auction and thought that the auction would not bring much money, it would not fail to sell. Not to mention the wine itself, even if it was for the Li family and Lin Feng's face, these rich people would buy it. After all, it's not expensive to buy all the wine! For any of the rich people present, it's not a big deal.

But no one bought it? Oh, heaven, oh, earth, what's going on! My golden signboard! The auctioneer wanted to buy this bottle of wine with his own money to protect his reputation. It's just 998 yuan, and his auction reputation was broken. This is too bad.

He is the first auctioneer at Sotheby's! The first! He is famous all over the world! Under his hands, I don't know how many rare and precious items have been auctioned, and the most expensive one is hundreds of millions of dollars. He successfully auctioned it off, and even sold it at a high price. Now, a bottle of wine priced at only 998 yuan is going to fail to sell, ruining his golden image. This is unacceptable!

"Boss, what's going on?" Lin Chiling also exclaimed.

Lin Feng shrugged helplessly.

"An old problem of the Chinese!" Lin Feng sighed, "There are three versions on it, the exclusive version, the supreme version, and the supreme luxury collection version. Then this most common version is obviously for ordinary people to drink. And these people are all super rich, how could they bid for this most common version. If they want to bid, I think the worst should be the exclusive version, so that it fits their status!"

"It failed to sell because of this reason?" Lin Chiling was shocked.

"Haha, isn't it! If someone bids for this, wouldn't it mean that he or she admits that he or she is not financially capable and cannot compete with others? This is a huge loss of face. After all, the most expensive version of this wine is only 88,888 yuan, which is not expensive at all for these rich people. So, they can't bid for this ordinary version." Lin Feng shrugged and said.

"Then it will really fail to sell! Isn't this ordinary version useless after being developed?" Lin Chiling said depressedly.

"Haha, how can it be useless! Sell it to the general public! They don't have so much money to buy other expensive versions. And these rich people, in order to highlight their status, naturally have to buy this exclusive version, the supreme version, or even the supreme luxury collector's edition! After all, these people are typical people with a lot of money!" Lin Feng said with sarcasm.

People with a lot of money? Lin Chiling laughed when she heard it. This is really the case. People with a lot of money are stupid, it's so right! Aren't these people like this! In fact, this wine is not that expensive at all. This best supreme luxury collector's edition, although the price is 88,888 yuan, is actually very low in cost. It adds up to less than 500 yuan. And a large part of it is still on the outer packaging. But some things are like this, the more expensive you sell, the more people will buy it. With the mentality that good goods are not cheap, and cheap goods are not good, it is exciting to grab them. Look, they are not grabbing this ordinary version, which is obviously going to grab the more expensive version later.

Standard people are stupid and have a lot of money!

In this case, let it fail to be sold! Anyway, you will make more money later! After all, the more expensive the version, the more the bid will be raised. And Li Zekai, who was sitting at the scene, also thought so. He was indifferent to the failure of these four bottles.

"998!" At this time, someone spoke.

All the rich people at the scene were stunned. Who is it? Is it embarrassing to bid for this ordinary version at this time! This ordinary version is just for ordinary people. How can these rich people use such wine! This doesn't fit their status! Absolutely not!

Li Zeju! Many wealthy people looked back and were surprised. They didn't expect that it would be Li Zeju who bid for it. What's going on?

"998 for the first time!" The auctioneer breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that someone bid. He was afraid that it would fail to sell. As for whether it could be sold at a higher price, he didn't care. After all, the value of this wine itself is limited.

"998 for the second time!"

"998 for the third time! Deal!" The auctioneer slammed the auction hammer heavily and breathed a sigh of relief. It was finally sold. It didn't fail to sell! But seeing the 4 bottles left on the table, his face darkened again. This, this, what should I do with the other 4 bottles? (To be continued.)
