21 pieces of Maotai Habsburg aged wine and Maotai Baijiu were quietly placed beside the auction table. More than 100 charity guests held license plates and sat down on stage, jumping and ready to lift.
On the afternoon of June 18th, the atmosphere in the Overseas Chinese Hall of the Kaiyuan Mingdu Hotel in Lishui was very lively. A charity auction with alcohol as the main auction was held grandly under the auspices of Lishui Daily Media Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Shanshui Auction Co., Ltd.

This is a special auction. All the items were donated by Hangzhou Habsburg Trading Co., Ltd., and all the proceeds from the auction will be donated to the Lishui Charity Association. "The auctioneer's opening statement quickly ignited the charity love of the guests who had already been unable to resist.
The first batch is a box of Maotai Habsburg Cabernet Sauvignon with 5-year old dry red wine, starting at 600 yuan. After repeatedly raising cards, guest number 3 took the lead in happily taking away with 1500 yuan.
The two items with the highest starting price are Maotai vintage wine and Maotai Golden Award commemorative wine. After multiple rounds of intense bidding, all of them were ultimately taken away by guest 37 with a big hand.
When people were wondering who this mysterious guest was, the auctioneer promptly revealed that he was the chairman of Zhejiang Shanshui Auction Co., Ltd.
The chairman stated that he participated in the auction to support charitable causes without hesitation, and to set an example and contribute to the development of the Lishui auction industry.
At the auction, the most eye-catching guest was the third guest. He took five lots at once. As long as he raises his cards, he puts on a winning posture and continues to jump high for bidding, occasionally causing bursts of enthusiastic applause on the field.
The 4.8L Maotai Habsburg 20-year aged oak barrel is the last item in the collection.

After three rounds of high jump and saw bidding between the two, the third guest still won this precious auction at a high price of 5800 yuan.
The third guest is Wang Huawen, Chairman of Zhejiang Ouyi Bearing Manufacturing Co., Ltd. According to the staff of the Lishui Charity Federation, he has always been very enthusiastic about supporting charitable causes. Charity activities such as the Wenchuan earthquake and assistance to impoverished students in the college entrance examination have all shown his positive and atmospheric performance.
Wang Huawen told reporters that supporting charitable causes with practical actions is one of the best ways for enterprises to repay society, and it is also an obligation that a responsible enterprise should fulfill. Today, he not only took the first batch, but also the last two batches. This is what I want to express as' supporting charity has a beginning and an end '.
He said that Hangzhou Habsburg Trading Co., Ltd. is able to hold a charity auction in Lishui, and as a local enterprise in Lishui, it is within its responsibility to actively respond. It is also a great pleasure to be able to help Lishui's charity cause again.
Mr. Zhuge, the guest on the 36th, is a furniture store owner. He said that although he doesn't like drinking, he bravely raised a sign and won the 2nd lot. This box of 8 year old specialty dry red wine is my charitable souvenir, and I will cherish it well in the future.
The charity auction has come to an end, but the love that supports charity is still surging in the auction venue.
The 86700 yuan donation from 21 auctions was ultimately donated to the Lishui Charity Association. The general manager of Hangzhou Habsburg Trading Co., Ltd. also stated that in the future market of Lishui, for every bottle of Habsburg wine sold, they will unconditionally donate 3 yuan to support the public welfare of Lishui.
