"Mr. Li." Wang Haodi reached out to Li Jin, and the two shook hands.

Editor-in-Chief Li's eyes flicked between the two, "Xiao Li, do you know Mr. Wang?"

Li Jin smiled and nodded.

"We know each other." Wang Haodi also said with a light smile.

"Then I won't make an introduction." Editor-in-Chief Li guessed that the two probably have business intersections, and said to Wang Haodi, "I admire Xiao Li very much. 'We came here together." He patted Li Jin on the shoulder again and said, "I know you are busy now! I have made an appointment for next year's film first! Don't reject me again!"

"No, editor-in-chief! I'll hand in your homework when you have some free time!" Li Jin smiled, and lost the airs he deliberately put on in front of Wang Haodi before.

Wang Haodi didn't talk much, and listened quietly from the sidelines, echoing editor Li's praise of Li Jin, and Li Jin responded one by one without arrogance or impetuosity.

When the editor-in-chief and Wang Haodi left, Chen Sicai asked curiously, "Who was that person just now?"

"Director and President of Chunsheng Trading Company."

"How did he know the editor-in-chief? I haven't seen him before." Chen Si couldn't remember the editor-in-chief saying that he would bring such a person.Shanhe Sushu is the main organizer of this photo exhibition, but I didn't get any news.

Looking at the backs of the two, Li Jin saw that they were chatting very acquaintedly, chatting and clinking glasses with the business and literary people present at the meeting, and frowned unconsciously, "I don't know." He had never heard of Wang Haodi and These people have contacts.Moreover, they have all taken root in City Z for many years. Could it be that he was also from City Z before?

"Can you ask the editor-in-chief?" Li Jin asked in a low voice.

"Hey, don't you know each other?" Chen Si asked strangely, "You can just ask if you don't..." Suddenly, he suddenly realized, "I understand, I understand. I'll try it, I don't guarantee that I can ask."

Li Jin draped his shoulders, very relieved.It is indeed a partner who has cooperated for many years.

The two took their food and sat down at an empty table in the corner.Li Jin didn't know the other photographers very well, and they basically belonged to the magazine's non-staff personnel.Quite a few people came to say hello to Chen Si.Chen Si was good at dealing with people, and he did not forget to introduce Lijin to them, so people toasted one after another, and for a while, neither of them had time to eat, and the dishes were completely cold.

Li Jin's gaze never stopped.The obvious absent-mindedness made Chen Si couldn't help but say, "What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing." Li Jin clinked wine glasses with him, "There are a few people I know, I have to go."

"Hmm." Chen Si waved at him, eating by himself.

Under the guise of greeting a few business people, Li Jin walked around the venue, but he never saw the person he wanted to meet, nor did he feel any pheromones.

It is enough to have Wang Haodi on this occasion, he will not come.And now the relationship between the two is really delicate.

Li Jin reflected from time to time in the past two days, no matter what, it was his own fault for kissing him forcefully.No matter how angry you are, this behavior has crossed the line.If he came, probably still couldn't resist looking for him.

Li Jin was even thinking about how to speak in his mind.

Turning around, I saw Chen Si waving at him, pointing at the watch with his finger, and said with his mouth, "It's auctioned!"

The soft voice of the master of ceremonies was sounding in the hall, inviting everyone to sit down, and announced that the auction would start soon.

All the lights suddenly went out.Li Jin just returned to his position.

A beam of light shines from the left side of the stage, and then a man in a light silver suit, bearded, and big black-rimmed glasses is chased by the beam, and slowly walks to the center of the stage.

Zack's voice seemed to have been smoked, it was extremely hoarse.His language is concise and clear, expressing his gratitude to everyone for coming, and introducing his inspiration for creation. This auction does not make an announcement in advance, it is for the on-site effect, and it will definitely surprise you.Soon the stage was handed over to the master of ceremonies.

"Wow!" Chen Si exclaimed amidst the warm applause from the crowd, "What a cool alpha! I just can't see the face clearly..." He followed up with a complaint.

Li Jin smiled and nodded in agreement. Although his tone was calm, he could still hear his absolute confidence.

The staff pushed the first work onto the stage, and at the same time, the lighting switched.The extremely thin red light crosses the entire banquet hall, and is precisely shot at the golden section point in the upper left corner of the screen, which is the setting sun like a cinnabar mole.

The light and color are indeed interpreted to the extreme.

The bidders in the audience held up the small fluorescent cards in their hands, which could not be seen clearly from Li Jin's position.But one can imagine that according to the speaking speed of the master of ceremonies, from the perspective of the stage, there must be as many stars in the night sky, twinkling non-stop.

Li Jin reckoned that some of them did not come here for this painting, but more like wanting to have a relationship with Zack.

The price of the first work has been called more than 200 million, and it was auctioned by a wealthy businessman.

The latter works have different styles, framing and composition, but generally speaking, the principle is the same, and the visual effect is excellent.

Li Jin admired Zack's works very much, but he had no intention of participating in the auction. He just sipped champagne and watched everyone in the front row silently fight or give in just right.

Until the last piece of work was moved to the stage, it was about the size of a standard oil painting, and it was shot on an ancient street, the color tone was retro and grayish, and the axis was very positive.In the center of the picture, a piece of pure white paper-cut work is fixed by a transparent ultra-fine plastic film. Two people, one big and one small, are holding hands.

With a "snap", the small desk lamp in the upper right corner of the frame was turned on, and warm yellow light poured down.

Li Jin's eyes were caught instantly.In the oblique photos of the photo, the paper surface has a sketch texture, as if it is still glowing with sparkling luster.The light was like real sunlight, warm and soft, lightly sprinkled on the two of them, casting trembling shadows on the path.

The heart seemed to be hit by a hammer, and the introduction of the master of ceremonies was in a trance.Li Jin didn't even wait for the "start" command, and unconsciously raised the fluorescent card in his hand.

"Number 31, 85." The master of ceremonies saw Li Jin's number and asked for the price for the first time.

"number 4."

"number 26."

"number 19."

"number 23."

Li Jin rushed away impatiently, like a pebble thrown into a lake, causing ripples circle after circle.The placards were raised one after another quickly, as if this was a recognized good work, and it could be photographed without thinking.What's more, this little money is a drop in the bucket for everyone present, and it should all be given to Zack.

"No. 19, 225 million."

Li Jin raised his sign.The master of ceremonies said loudly, "No. 31, 235 million."

No. 19 raised his card again immediately.

Li Jin looked at the back of No. 11 sitting at his 19 o'clock position.As if I have a tacit understanding with myself, every time a work is about to be auctioned, I or No. 19 will raise a sign to intercept it.Over time, only the two of them are still bidding.

Not to be outdone, Li Jin just wanted to keep up when he was patted by Chen Si next to him, and said in a low voice, "Didn't you say you're not interested in auctions? Why are you competing with others?"

"I really like this one." Li Jin simply raised his sign.

Chen Si had no choice but to ask, "Would you like to find out for you, who is that number 19?" Although it was dark under the auction stage and the number was theoretically unknown to each other, it did not mean that it was completely confidential, and it could be known through certain channels.Moreover, people in the business community will consider the strength and status of both parties before making a move, so as to avoid winning love from the perspective of long-term cooperation.

"No need." Li Jin said lightly.He was becoming more and more curious, who would be so interested in this work, and he was biting himself.

Li Jin's first glance at "The End of the World" was amazing, and it was the spark created by the invisible collision of two souls.The person holding hands may be a parent and child, a friend, or a lover. Walking in the fireworks of the world, I really want to go on like this forever.The artistic conception he showed is very similar to the one he took in Yanghuai.Gujie, Shuangren, with the most sincere smile.

A road goes all the way to the end, and there is no turning back.

Li Jin heard that No. 19 added it again, and his hand that raised the card again felt a little numb, and it was a completely subconscious action.

Just like that person, his heartbeat slowly turned into obsession.Everything stinks of copper these days, and the things that compete are bloody trophies.

"Number 31." The price quoted by the master of ceremonies was also unclear.

The exact amount doesn't matter to Li Jin anymore, he is just competing with himself.

No. 19 is in hot pursuit.

There was a sudden commotion in the venue, everyone whispered to each other, turned their heads around, and talked about who was competing.

"Old Li." Chen Si pressed Li Jin's hand, "It's almost enough, it's almost 300 million. Think about it, it might be deliberately targeting you, don't get caught in it."

"...I know." After Li Jin finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief and raised his placard again.

Probably the last time.Some obsessions will come to an end, and one cannot always obsess over a piece of work.It's not that he likes this work to the point of madness, it's just that he is greedy for it, like a Yiren.Maybe it will win the love of No. 19.

"No. 19, 400 million!" The master of ceremonies suddenly raised his voice.

Li Jin stared straight at the past, and his heart trembled.The madness of raising the quotation of 100 million at a time, and the style of not bad money, is it a last-ditch effort, or is it because you have no intention of fighting, and plan to give yourself a blow?This style of acting is quite familiar, could it be that person?He clearly dismissed the memories of that time...

Li Jin gritted his teeth, holding the sign up and down in his hand.If it's that person, why not let him take the picture?But I don't want to lose face...

"Once...twice..."

In the end Li Jin didn't raise it again.

The small hammer fell, and the deal was made.The auction is over.

The lights came on one after another, Li Jin's gaze never left in that direction, and he accurately found the profile of No. 19 amidst the hustle and bustle.

In the next second, Li Jin's stern expression suddenly melted away, and the corners of his mouth curled up, feeling relieved.The expected answer made him loosen his clenched hands.

It really is him, does he like "The End of the World" too?

He always appears after he has made up his mind, defeating the original plan.After the disappointment, I let myself look forward to it again, and regrouped a little bit of hope.

Li Jin got up, patted Chen Si on the shoulder, took two glasses of wine, and walked towards 11 o'clock.
