TCM in New York

Chapter 49
Ding Changsheng didn't wait too long. A few minutes later, the brunette beauty walked in with a middle-aged white man.

"Sir, I am the appraisal certificate of Sotheby's. My name is Warwick Coleman. Let me help you authenticate, can you?" White middle-aged

Ding Changsheng raised his hand to signal, and asked the middle-aged white man to appraise casually. He didn't put the things away just now, but put them on the table.

The middle-aged white man Warwick Coleman first put on his white gloves, then took out a magnifying glass, then picked up the diamond and looked at it.

"Sir, thank you for your trust in Sotheby's!

Are you going to shoot straight away, or go up for a shot? "

"On the auction? Is there any difference?" Ding Changsheng asked with a smile.

"Oh! If we sell directly, Sotheby's will give a relatively high valuation, and then directly buy it in cash.

If it is put up for auction, the final achievement price may be higher than our purchase price, but the auction fee needs to be paid, and it will take a long time. "

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry to spend the money!" Ding Changsheng shrugged and smiled.

"Sir, your diamond is an fl grade diamond, very perfect!

The estimated value of this diamond is around 200 million US dollars, and it may reach more than 2000 million if you meet someone you like.

This is mainly because the diamond market has been sluggish in recent years. Ten years ago, the price might have doubled. "Warwick Coleman said as he put down the diamond and picked up the emerald to look at it.

What Warwick Coleman said just now was not just a mere trick. He was really testing Ding Changsheng. If Ding Changsheng was in a hurry to spend money, then this diamond might become FL (internal flawless) or VVS1 (very flawless). slightly flawed).

Don't underestimate the difference in grades. Ding Changsheng's diamond is about [-] to [-] grams. A difference in grades is a difference of several million dollars.

Seeing that Ding Changsheng looked like he was not short of money, and was so calm, Warwick Kullman would honestly give a firm result.

"The material of this piece of jadeite is also very good. If it weren't for the little cotton here, it would be completely up to the standard of glass species, and the color is also very positive, and it is a noble purple.

The estimated price is 300 million U.S. dollars, and the final transaction price is about 500 million to 2000 million U.S. dollars if it is put up for auction.

Sir, are you sure you want to take the auction?
If the husband is not in a hurry to spend money, I suggest putting it in the autumn auction, so that the final transaction price can be increased by more than [-]%. ’ Warwick Coleman probed the next day.

"Okay, let's go to the autumn auction, I'm not in a hurry to spend money!" Ding Changsheng laughed.

He wasn't in a hurry to spend money at all, but he didn't want to cheapen Pan Jianguo's old stuff, so he sent it to Sotheby's for auction.

He still has nearly 500 million US dollars in his hand, and he doesn't have any big consumption needs recently, so this amount of money is completely enough for him to waste.

The brunette beauty enthusiastically introduced the rules of the auction to Ding Changsheng, as well as the auction fees, etc., and then brought the contract. Ding Changsheng signed the contract readily and chose to hand over the auction items to Sotheby's for safekeeping.

With this peace of mind, Sotheby's can also promote it with confidence.

Coming out of Sotheby's, Ding Changsheng drove to find a Michelin starred restaurant on Fifth Avenue and had a sumptuous lunch.

Many people say that Michelin must make an appointment, otherwise it will not be accepted.

In fact, this is a misunderstanding. Not all Michelin restaurants require it, and reservations must be made in advance.

In fact, this is the restaurant's self-promotion, and the reservations are aimed at ordinary customers or middle-class customers.

In order to eat a three-star Michelin meal, I saved money for several months.

It seems that after eating three Michelin stars, I am a member of the upper class.

For truly rich people, who would make reservations days or even months in advance for a meal?

Ordinary people grit their teeth, make an appointment several days or even months in advance, and then go to eat a Michelin three-star meal with an average per capita of thousands of RMB, feeling that their life has reached the pinnacle.

What they don't know is that even if ordinary people make reservations, they may not be able to eat dishes made by Michelin three-star chefs.

What Ding Changsheng went to was not a Michelin-starred restaurant, but a Michelin-recommended restaurant, and the taste was still very good.

After lunch, Ding Changsheng drove slowly to Kennedy Airport.

After rushing to the airport, Ding Changsheng parked his car in the parking lot after seeing that it was still early, took out his phone and began to watch short videos.

After waiting for about an hour, Ding Changsheng left the parking lot and went to the exit gate to wait.

After waiting for another half an hour, I saw Zhang Xin, Wang Linna, and Zhou Linlin walking slowly from the exit gate pushing suitcases.

Looking at the three beauties with light steps and myriad postures, Ding Changsheng couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Sure enough, my vision is so unique.

These three beauties brought them to the street, and the return rate is absolutely 100%.

"Sister Lin Lin, sister Zhang Xin...welcome to New York!" Ding Changsheng opened his arms and smiled at Zhou Linlin and the others.

"What are you doing? Playing hooligans!" Zhou Linlin pushed Ding Changsheng away, disgusted.

"Sister Lin Lin, this is an American-style welcome ceremony, besides, I am your boss.

Isn't it right to enjoy some benefits? Ding Changsheng protested.

"What an American-style welcome ceremony, I think you are making excuses to take advantage!" Zhou Linlin gave Ding Changsheng a blank look, but still hugged him.

I will be my own boss in the future, so it is not too much to give a little benefit.

Ding Changsheng hugged the three beauties one by one as he wished.

Make the passers-by around you envious.

After some greetings, Ding Changsheng took the three of them to the Apple store near the airport to buy three iPhones.

It was a meeting gift for the three beauties.

The mobile phones brought from China, if they are tri-band, can also be used in the United States, but the use in the United States is not as easy to use as the US version of the mobile phone.

Apple mobile phones are extremely expensive in China, but they are still very cheap here, and there are many business agreements for free phones.

Ding Changsheng also runs this kind of contract machine, with a two-year contract and a $60 monthly package.

"Wow, senior, so generous! He gave us a mobile phone as soon as we met, and it was an iPhone 11! I have wanted to buy this mobile phone for a long time, but it's a pity..." Zhang Xin said with a smile.

"Yeah! The senior is so generous, the latest iPhone 11, Zhang Xin's younger sister, do you want to give me some more benefits?

How about another hug? Ding Changsheng smiled and opened his hands to Zhang Xin.

"Let's go!" Zhou Linlin pushed Ding Changsheng away in disgust, directly exposing Ding Changsheng's sinister intentions, "I want to take advantage and just say it.

What did you give away? This is obviously a free contract machine. "

"Senior Lin Lin, did no one tell you? Women are too smart to be cute at all!" Ding Changsheng said aggrievedly, "Forget it, originally I thought, just give me a hug, and I'll reimburse you for your monthly phone bills." .”
