Chapter 622 Gambling!

"Hey, have you heard? The Wantong Auction House was stolen."

"What, stolen? True or false? What was lost? Did you find it?"

"Of course it is true. Can I lie to you about this kind of thing? I heard that it is a gold ingot from the Southern Song Dynasty. By the way, it seems to be the one found at the bottom of the box a few days ago. What did you promise, you got the right to auction the gold ingot, the agreement has been signed, but the thing was lost in Wantong's vault, you said it was unlucky or unlucky, or embarrassing?"

"It's unlucky, it's unlucky enough, but I had the opportunity to enter Wantong's vault and only stole one piece. It's so targeted, it's obviously done by insiders, has anyone caught it?"

"Hey, it would be great if you caught it. The problem is that the person was not caught, and the baby was not found. You said that such a big auction house, how could such a thing happen? This is too careless. It seems that in the future we will Be careful when entrusting antiques to Wantong."

"What are you careful about? Why don't you go to Wantong?"

The news of the theft of antiques from Vantone Auction House, like a cold wind outside, quickly swept through the entire antique and auction circles, becoming a hot topic of discussion among people after dinner.

The reason why it has received so much attention, apart from the matter itself, is that there have been many similar thefts recently, and they were all in major auction houses. Although many auction houses do not admit it, don't forget one sentence: Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles.Bad things tend to get more attention than good things.

In addition, they also have one thing in common, that is, the antiques were lost in the same situation. They were all lost without being seen by the security guards or captured by surveillance cameras. Even the police found a little clue.

Some people think that the crime is committed by a gang, but what kind of gang can reach out to the major auction houses?Some people say it's a coincidence, but it's impossible for all the thefts to leave no clues, right?Others say that the auction house is guarding against itself. When someone is willing to pay a high price to buy it, the auction house will sell the treasure, and finally give part of the money to the consignor as compensation, and earn the difference from it.In short, there is everything to say.

In the process, the reputation of the auction house has inevitably been greatly challenged. Even if the compensation is paid according to the figure stipulated in the agreement, some people still have doubts about the role of the auction company in this matter. Losing it in the auction house not only damages the client's interests, but also affects the fair competition principle in this industry, which is unfair to both the buyer and the buyer.

The most important thing in the auction business is reputation. When the reputation of an auction house is questioned, it will be the end of the auction house. If the reputation of all auction houses is questioned, then someone must stand up, otherwise It's the end of the industry.

A hero emerges in troubled times, but no one knows exactly when the hero will be born. However, everyone hopes that this person will appear as soon as possible, even if it is a competitor. Compared with the crisis we are facing now, the previous grievances between each other are nothing .

Sitting in the office, Qi Mengyao kept rubbing her temples. She was too optimistic about the auction. This kind of optimism also caused her to feel caught off guard when the crisis came suddenly, and she had a splitting headache.

The plan has not changed quickly, and the current auction circle can be said to be full of turmoil and panic, and the entire auction industry is drowned in the tide of reputation by saliva, and even nostalgia is not immune.

It used to be that people would come to the door every day to entrust antiques to Huaigu for auction, but now, there is no shortage of people who are consulting, but there are very few people who are actually willing to entrust them with antiques, not a single one a day, even her Congyun The six elites brought by Cui are also useless. The old relationship is prevaricated for various reasons, and it is difficult to establish a new relationship in a short period of time. Although Li Dacheng did not set a goal for her, she always feels that if this continues, her The face is ugly.

How to do it?

You can't sit here and wait to die, can you?
Qi Mengyao came to the window and looked outside. The sky was getting darker. A total of more than 30 people from various antique departments had already dispersed. She didn't know if there would be any harvest today, but she didn't have much hope, even the people she brought There is no way, let alone those newly recruited recently, it is estimated that they will get back another big duck egg.

"Dangdangdang..."

The knock on the door came from outside, interrupting Qi Mengyao's worries. She sorted out her emotions, covered up her inner irritability with calmness, and called out to come in. In front of her subordinates, she would never express Anxiety surfaced.

She thought it was a subordinate who had been out for a whole day and came back to report to her, but when she saw the person who opened the door and came in, her mood sank. It was Li Dacheng, the person she least wanted to see now.

No one wants to meet their enemy when they are frustrated, and she is no exception, let alone a kidnapper who 'tied' her to be Mrs. Yazhai?

"The chairman is here, do you have any instructions?" Qi Mengyao asked lightly, her eyes continued to look out of the window. Although she was born and grew up in the capital, she has never felt that the capital is as beautiful as it is now, and she is reluctant to look away. moved away.

"Is this your attitude towards my boss?" Li Dacheng asked like this, but he didn't care about it in his heart. This can be seen from the smile on his face. This woman has been stern since she came to Huaigu. face, never smiled.

"Do I still need to organize people to line up to welcome me? Do I need to play music, spread the red carpet, and present red flowers?" Qi Mengyao asked.

"Don't bother, I have to reimburse myself for such a big battle." Li Dacheng sat down, looked at Qi Mengyao and said, "The company's recent situation is very bad, and the business volume is constantly declining. As the person in charge of this aspect , I wonder what Vice President Qi thinks?"

Qi Mengyao's face froze, and she knew that the other party came to her for nothing good, "Affected by the theft of antiques from many auction houses, people have been very cautious about auction houses recently, which is also the main reason for the decline in business volume. Losing trust is tantamount to losing someone who eats, no one wants to be on guard all day long, it is better to keep antiques in their own hands and be safe."

"According to what you're saying, don't all the auction houses have to drink the northwest wind?" Li Dacheng said with a frown.

"This incident has really had a bad impact. It has made the already difficult auction industry worse. It may take a long time to go back to the past, so that people can forget about it. I heard that some auction houses have already given their employees long vacations. Three A four-month long vacation to reduce unnecessary expenses." Qi Mengyao said what the staff told her.

In the middle of May, the record-breaking auction of nostalgia made everyone think that the spring of the auction industry is coming, but who would have thought that in the past six months, the entire industry has experienced a roller-coaster trough. Drivers overturned their cars at this time, some closed their doors, and some changed their careers. Spring has just begun, and some people didn’t even have time to experience it before it was over, and it was winter directly.

Qi Mengyao couldn't help looking at Li Dacheng in the image reflected by the glass, and suddenly had a feeling in her heart that success is also Xiao He's failure and Xiao He is also Xiao He. The prosperity was brought about by this man, and this man is also responsible for the decline.

"What do you mean, let me close the company that has just opened for a few days?" Li Dacheng asked, closing the business just a month after opening, it is estimated that it will set a record for the fastest closing in the auction industry. Getting laughed out of your teeth?Does he still need to hang out in this circle in the future?
"I didn't say that, I was just objectively describing the current environment of the auction industry, so as to let you know that the decline in the company's performance is not caused by me alone." Qi Mengyao said, thinking for a while and adding another sentence , "It doesn't matter who comes."

"It's a good reason to shirk responsibility. I'll give you 99 points, and one point less is for fear of your pride." Li Dacheng said with a smile.Use difficulty as an excuse?For him, difficulties are never an excuse.

Qi Mengyao knew that Li Dacheng was trying to run her down, but she had already fallen into one pit, and she didn't want to jump into another pit. She knew that now was not the time to show off, so why is her current situation not the price to pay for acting out?However, Li Dacheng's humble appearance really made her feel a little embarrassed, as if she had a problem with her personal ability.

"Don't look at me like that, you can do it if you want." Qi Mengyao couldn't help saying, it's really not a big deal to watch the excitement.

"I'm coming? Don't you need it?" Li Dacheng looked at Qi Mengyao with a smile and said, "If I make a move, won't it appear that you are too incompetent?"

Qi Mengyao's apricot eyes stared immediately, and said with a sneer, "I'm not afraid to flash my tongue when the wind is strong, who wouldn't just sit here and brag? Seriously if you have the ability?"

inability?To say that she is incompetent?In this circle, no one has ever said that she is incompetent, and she can often hear such things as women who do not give way to men.

"It's bragging to say something like this from you mortals, but it's the truth to say it from me." Li Dacheng said lightly.

"Then you're going to make a move? You are the boss of the company, and the company belongs to you. You don't want to see your company decline day by day, do you?"

"I'm afraid of hurting your self-confidence, and I don't want your subordinates to see your incompetence."

"I think that as the chairman, you should let your subordinates, including me, see your awesome side. Otherwise, wouldn't it appear that you, the boss, are too useless?"

"The problem is that I have entrusted you with full authority over the business of antiques, and the custom-made antiques I am in charge of have flourished and have not been affected by the outside world, and I also feel that, as the chairman of the company, If you do all the big and small things by yourself, if I do everything, then what are you doing for food?"

"You don't have to do everything, just do it this time, it can be regarded as an example for us employees. After all, the company has just been established, so it should be regarded as establishing prestige. Otherwise, the employees will have opinions on you, the chairman who doesn't see you all day. very big."

"What employees, I think it's you?" Li Dacheng said with a smile. It's not a day or two since this woman has had opinions on him, and now she finally found a chance to take revenge.

"Then do you want me to convince you?" Qi Mengyao confronted her tit for tat, and she didn't have to worry about the other party messing things up. This also made her dare to face this man head-on.

"Didn't you be picked by me a long time ago and become my prisoner?" Li Dacheng asked, "When you went to smash the scene, you begged me many times."

"I was forced to have no choice but to pretend to submit to your lust." Qi Mengyao said seriously.

"I didn't expect you to be a double-faced person."

"Then do you want to convince me?"

"The question is, what good will it do me to convince you?"

"There are too many benefits, at least I can serve you wholeheartedly."

"What you said is equivalent to talking about it. How can I know if you put your heart and soul into it? Do you understand the real thing? You can see it."

"Then what do you want?" Qi Mengyao saw that there seemed to be a door, so he asked in turn, this time the other party must also fall into the pit.

"Well, how about you be my lover?" Li Dacheng opened his mouth and said, as if it had been planned for a long time.

"Don't even think about it, I'm selling my art but not my body!" Qi Mengyao refused with a blushing face, knowing that this despicable bastard had no good intentions and was full of bad intentions.

"But you don't have any skills?"

"I..." Qi Mengyao's face turned red again, but this time she was pissed off. After a while, after thinking about it, she gritted her teeth and said, "Then I will stay in Huaigu and work until it closes down."

"Bah, how much do you want Huaigu to close? Don't forget, you are also a member of Huaigu now." Li Dacheng said this, but he was really moved. Although the other party is here, his heart is always in the cloud. Cui, so it is also a good thing for him to let the other party's heart stay here and dispel the idea of ​​returning to Yun Cui.

"I don't want the annual salary, I just want performance rewards, so it's okay for the head office?" Qi Mengyao took another step back.

"Okay!" Li Dacheng immediately agreed when he heard this. No matter how much he does and how much he gets, this is simply a no-cost business for him.

"But..." Qi Mengyao said, "If it turns out that you are just bragging, then you have to let me go back to Yuncui!" This is her real purpose.

"No problem!" Li Dacheng said, and he would go back when he went back. At worst, he would force the other party to come. Li Dacheng was afraid that Qi Mengyao would repent, so he stood up and stretched out his hand, "A word from a gentleman..."

Qi Mengyao didn't expect Li Dacheng to agree so readily, and even felt a little unrealistic. She looked at Li Dacheng's head, walked over from the window, raised her hand and gave Li Dacheng a high-five, "It's hard to catch a horse!" She wanted to see , What kind of ability does the other party have that can bring this situation back to life.

"Hey!" Li Dacheng had a sinister smile on his face, and said to Qi Mengyao, "Then I will take action, and you should be prepared to stay here forever!"

"I'm ready to pack up and go back to my company."

"I won't give you this chance."
