Chapter 757 757. Extreme Joy Brings Sorrow (1)
Along the way, Lu Chaoyang had a cold face and ignored Huo Yunting, who had nothing to say.
"We're here." The staff member responsible for leading the way made an inviting gesture, "You two, please come in."
"Thanks."
Lu Chaoyang and Huo Yunting walked into the conference hall and saw many people sitting sparsely in the huge hall, all wearing suits and ties, looking like business elites.
Xiang Jinxi was also among them. He was sitting on the far right side of the first row. He seemed not to notice anyone coming. His expression was calm and unsmiling, and he only stared at the stage intently.
"He is indeed here!"
Lu Chaoyang turned his head and glanced at Huo Yunting, and saw that his handsome face with a smile seemed to be shrouded in a shadow, and his dark pupils were flowing with a dark luster, looking both sinister and dangerous.
"Calm down." She reminded in a low voice, fearing that Huo Yunting would not be able to control his emotions.
Huo Yunting did not answer, but withdrew his eyes from Xiang Jinxi, took Lu Chaoyang's hand, and sat in the center of the first row.
As soon as he appeared, the atmosphere in the entire space felt strangely stagnant.
The representatives of the other three companies glanced at the indifferent Xiang Jinxi, and then glanced at Huo Yunting's delicate and stern profile.
Reminiscent of the struggle between the two, they nodded in understanding, exchanged glances with each other, and each remained silent, quietly waiting for the bidding to begin.
Da da da.
A burst of footsteps sounded suddenly.
I saw a middle-aged man walking slowly onto the stage, his majestic gaze sweeping across the audience, and his loud voice reaching every corner through the microphone.
"Everyone, I am the mayor of Jing City."
Mayor Jiang, who had just taken office, said slowly, "Today we will decide the ownership of the port project here. The five companies are all the largest business groups in the city. Who can win this project in the end depends on your ability. ”
He took a breath and continued, "The rules of the bidding are very simple. Take turns to bid. Whoever bids a higher price will win the project!"
"..."
Many people frowned and subconsciously looked at Huo Yunting in the first row.
Among the five enterprises, the most powerful one is the Thunder Group.
It seemed that they couldn't compete with Huo Yunting tonight.
No one takes Xiang Jinxi seriously. If it were before, they would still be very afraid, but now Xiang Yuan can't even compare with them, so how can they have the capital to fight against Huo Yunting?
For a moment, everyone sighed, feeling a little regretful, but also a little relieved, and relaxed.
"The base price is one billion!" Mayor Jiang ordered, "Start!"
Lu Chaoyang was speechless.
Although the company had conducted an assessment beforehand, she also understood how significant the project was.
But when she heard that the starting price of the bidding was one billion, she was inevitably a little shocked and instinctively glanced at Huo Yunting.
But she found that his eyes were half-closed, looking like a lazy bystander. He immediately rolled his eyes and pursed his lips, not intending to say anything.
The parties involved were not in a hurry, so what did she worry about.
"Fifteen billion!"
"twenty!"
"Three and a half billion!"
"Thirty-six hundred and seventy million!"
As we went to the back, the amount jumped less and less. When it almost reached 4 billion, one company had already given up the competition.
During this period, Huo Yunting remained silent and closed his eyes to rest.
The same goes for Xiang Jinxi. In the eyes of onlookers, his appearance made them think that he came here today just for a formality.
"Four billion!"
