Rebirth: My dad is a coal boss
Chapter 575
Lin Hao was looking at Abramovich, and Abramovich was also looking at Lin Hao. He was almost tired of hearing about Lin Hao. After he acquired Chelsea in July this year, the whole of Europe was talking about him, which made him gain a lot of attention and fame, and directly became famous in the Western capital world.
As a result, less than two months later, in September, news came that a mysterious tycoon from China announced that he would acquire a European football club, which directly overshadowed him, and even without announcing which team he would acquire.
After the news came out that Lin Hao became the second largest shareholder of Manchester United, the news directly compared the two together, especially after Lin Hao came to London in the past few days.
The major British media conducted a comprehensive comparison between the two, comparing age, assets, global influence, etc., and he fell behind in all aspects.
In terms of age, Lin Hao is only 19 years old, while he is already 37 years old. In terms of assets, Forbes announced that his assets are around 10 billion US dollars, and although Forbes did not announce Lin Hao, the outside world generally speculated that his assets are 50 billion US dollars.
Lin Hao's assets have always been a mystery. At the beginning, Lin Hao spent 20 billion US dollars to acquire Universal Music, Universal Pictures and Blizzard Entertainment, which attracted global attention. At that time, it was generally believed that Lin Hao's money was earned during the Iraq War, and Lin Hao's total assets should be 30 billion US dollars. However, with Lin Hao's investment of up to 160 billion US dollars in China, although 100 billion US dollars of it was a loan and the remaining 60 billion US dollars had to be paid in 5 years, it directly shocked the world. Later, he invested 20 billion US dollars in Japan and South Korea. Although it is not known whether this 20 billion US dollars is included in the 160 billion US dollars, it is enough to make people not doubt Lin Hao's strength. Recently, he spent 4.1 billion euros in Europe to acquire Valentino, Gucci Group, and Bulgari, which directly raised the speculation about Lin Hao's assets to 50 billion US dollars. Abramovich lost in age and assets, and he was not as influential as Lin Hao in the world. The Rome shooting incident made Lin Hao known to the whole world, and even if it hadn't happened, Lin Hao's influence would have been higher than his.
Before, Abramovich was only a little famous in Russia. Although he bought Chelsea later, which made him very famous in Europe, Lin Hao is the boss of Universal Music, Universal Pictures and Blizzard Entertainment.
These three companies have countless fans of music, movies and games around the world, which are far better than Abramovich. Moreover, Lin Hao also has a girlfriend, Ivanka, the first socialite in New York. No matter where they go, they are the focus.
Abramovich was a little dissatisfied with losing in all aspects. He was also very curious about Lin Hao. He finally met him today. He was very young, and Ivanka was very beautiful beside him, which made him a little jealous.
"It's nice to meet Mr. Abramovich." Lin Hao took the initiative to extend his hand and said.
"I have been fascinated by Mr. Lin for a long time, and I finally met him today." Abramovich said while holding Lin Hao's hand.
The two held hands, their eyes collided, and sparks almost appeared.
"The game in a week is really exciting. I wonder if Chelsea will win or Manchester United will win." Prince Harry looked at the two and said.
"We will know when the time comes. The dinner is about to start. Let's take a seat." William saw that the atmosphere was a bit wrong and said hurriedly.
Hearing William's words, everyone began to find their seats and sat down. Tonight's dinner is a charity dinner, held in the form of an auction, which is very popular throughout the West. The items are provided by the people attending the dinner, and the money from the auction will be donated to various charities.
Lin Hao had attended such a dinner once before, and he also picked up a lot of leaks there. Several items are sky-high in later generations, which makes Lin Hao look forward to it.
As the future crown prince, William is still very enthusiastic about charity. Whether it is a show or a real love, at least he is doing it.
Ivanka and Kate hit it off at first sight. The two were still chatting when the dinner started. Fortunately, Lin Hao's seat was next to William.
The host walked onto the stage and made a lot of opening remarks. Soon, the first item was pushed onto the stage. It was an oil painting. The host explained its origin, the author, and other information, and then began the auction.
"The starting price is 10,000 pounds, and each bid must not be less than 1,000 pounds." As the host finished speaking, people immediately began to bid.
"15,000 pounds."
"16,000 pounds."
......
The price kept rising. Lin Hao was not interested in this oil painting, nor did he know the author of this painting, but judging from the popularity of the scene, it seemed to be very famous. In a short while, the price reached 50,000 pounds, which was alreadyIt is not considered low.
In Europe, especially in the art world, it can be said that the drought is dead, the flood is dead. A painting by a famous painter may be sold for millions, while an unknown one may not be sold for hundreds. Moreover, most painters became famous after their death and lived in poverty.
In the end, the painting was bought by Prince William for 60,000 pounds. As the host of tonight's dinner, everyone tacitly stopped bidding.
The second item was put on the stage and revealed its true appearance, a statue.
"The bronze statue in front of us is a replica made by the students of Michelangelo, a master of the Italian Renaissance. It shows Hercules in ancient Greek mythology. This statue is not only a work of art, but also a witness to history and culture. The starting price is set at 50,000 pounds, and each bid must not be less than 2,000 pounds."
This time it was more enthusiastic than the last time. Many people liked this statue very much. The price went up all the way and finally it was sold for 200,000 pounds.
The third item aroused Lin Hao's interest. It was an oracle bone script. Although there were only two pieces, it was also very precious.
"These two pieces of oracle bones have been identified to have a history of 5,000 years. They are very formal, and the text on them has not been deciphered yet. The starting price is 500,000 pounds, and each bid must not be less than 10,000 pounds."
Wow, it was 10 times higher than the previous item, but someone bid as soon as the host finished speaking.
"600,000 pounds."
"1 million pounds." As soon as the price of 600,000 came out, someone immediately bid 1 million pounds, which directly caused exclamations on the scene.
1 million pounds is a very high price, but it soon reached 2 million pounds, which surprised Lin Hao. It's just two pieces of bones, and the price is so high.
"2 million pounds for the first time, is there a higher price?"
"2 million pounds for the second time."
When the host shouted for the third time and was about to knock the gavel, Lin Hao made his first bid tonight.
