Chapter 406 - 187 The Advancing Ouyang Nana_2
If it were just about what the fans think, the agent wouldn’t need to be so anxious, but this time, it’s different. If they let Tencent Video’s promotion be hindered, they would offend the most powerful entertainment capital in the country.
If things turned sour, it might not result in a ban, but it would definitely make it difficult for Ouyang Nana to get roles in the future. After all, Ouyang Nana really didn’t have much acting skill and relied entirely on fan traffic. There were plenty of female stars with more fan traffic than her. Without Ouyang Nana, someone else would immediately step up.
The agent felt she had already made the severity of the issue clear and again planned to drag Ouyang Nana away to deal with the matter.
But this time...
Ouyang Nana didn’t even let her touch her and dodged away, frowning, "Why can’t we handle it the way we used to? Why make such a big fuss?"
"Lady, this time it’s different. Previously, the hype was all about capturing shadows and letting marketing accounts make up stuff.
This time you’re directly linked to Mr. Gu! This is concrete evidence, can we handle it with the old PR methods?! Of course, it needs the involved parties to come out and clarify!"
While saying this, she couldn’t help but glance over Mr. Gu...
Mr. Gu also smiled upon hearing this, knowing that Ouyang Nana’s agent was hinting at him, and spoke indifferently, "If you need my help to clarify, I can do that. I’ll apply for a Weibo account later, but I’m a bit tied up right now and need to wait until the auction ends."
The agent’s eyes lit up upon hearing Mr. Gu’s words. She could yell and scream at Ouyang Nana, but she didn’t dare show any disrespect towards Mr. Gu. So, she could only give hints to Mr. Gu.
However, she hadn’t expected Mr. Gu to give her face like this and quickly thanked him, "If Mr. Gu could help clarify, that would be perfect. I thank Mr. Gu on behalf of Nana."
Mr. Gu waved his hand lightly, his face indifferent, signaling it was no problem.
But Ouyang Nana, standing nearby, frowned upon hearing the word "clarify."
Seeing the indifferent expression on Mr. Gu’s face sent a tremor through her heart.
Her fondness for Mr. Gu had already far exceeded the passing grade; she had even begun to care about what Mr. Gu thought of her.

Normally, celebrities didn’t hold much status in the eyes of the wealthy and powerful, and now her agent, in front of Mr. Gu, talking about needing to hype a CP or a scandal, wasn’t this like pointing at her nose and saying, "Isn’t Ouyang Nana good enough for Mr. Gu?"
Being a sensitive girl, Mr. Gu’s indifferent expression was the last straw, suddenly making her snap impatiently, "What do you mean clarify? What have I done that I need to clarify? Why should I have to explain my personal life to others?
As for Tencent, if they want to collaborate, they’ll collaborate, if not, then we won’t collaborate in the future. Why should I still cooperate with them to hype a CP? Does the contract’s requirement for cooperation mean I have to sell my reputation to help them generate profits?
Nicole Carman invited Gu Heng to sit on a reserved sofa and explained, "The number of people here today is actually quite a lot. Normally only between 10 to 20 people attend these standard auctions, and even if they genuinely wanted to auction a wristwatch, it would usually only occur online.
Today is special because there is a 6002G-001 Astronomical Tourbillon Wristwatch, which has been in preservation for several years, making an appearance. According to routine, the watch will be displayed for 30 minutes after the auction ends.
Most of these members are here just to get a glimpse of our Patek Philippe’s most proud piece, the 6002G-001 Astronomical Tourbillon Wristwatch."
Gu Heng, puzzled, turned to Nicole Carman and asked, "Then why didn’t you mention that this 6002G-001 Astronomical Tourbillon Wristwatch would be here today?"
Nicole Carman quickly explained, "The routine auction is just hosted in our salon. The specifics are managed by the corporation, not under my control, so I really wasn’t paying attention. It was only this afternoon that I specifically inquired and found out about the inclusion of the 6002G-001 Astronomical Tourbillon Wristwatch."
After saying this, she brought out the display chart of today’s auction items.
Gu Heng took a brief look.
There were seven images in total, representing seven auction items.
Wristwatches fit for auction naturally wouldn’t be of low value, but none matched his taste...
Either they were too tacky or excessively ugly.
If it weren’t for the Patek Philippe brand backing these watches, Gu Heng doubted anyone would want them for tens of thousands of dollars, let alone appear in an auction...
It wasn’t until Gu Heng saw the last auction item that his eyes lit up.
Before him was an exquisitely luxurious wristwatch imbued with an ancient aura.
Sensing the love in Gu Heng’s eyes, Nicole Carman eagerly said, "Mr. Gu, this is the 6002G-001 Astronomical Tourbillon Wristwatch I mentioned to you, standing on par with the 6300/400G-001 you like. It’s also known as the Patek Philippe ’King of Watches’ and is one of only three such pieces globally. Its value is in no way inferior to the 6300/400G-001, and in terms of rarity, it might even surpass it.
If the owner wasn’t in a rush to sell, this piece would usually only be seen in major auctions like Christie’s or Sotheby’s."
Gu Heng nodded slightly.
Globally limited to three pieces...
He estimated it must be worth tens of millions, quite a step up from the last watch he’d purchased.
At that moment, Frederick, Nicolas, and Douglas also arrived at the auction room. After smiling and greeting Gu Heng, and seeing Ouyang Nana by his side, they decided not to intrude and, under the direction of the staff, took their places on their respective sofas.
