Chapter 279 Chapter [-] Yuan Blue and White and Jade Auction
After finishing the preview, Li Yang told Zheng Kaida and the others about his going to Hong Kong.
Speaking of which, Li Yang is already a director of a large-scale auction company, but he has not really participated in a formal large-scale auction.
It's embarrassing to say this, but it's true.
This time, I could have a good experience at the auction held by my own auction company, but because of Mr. He's request, I had to give up temporarily. Fortunately, I went to Hong Kong to participate in the auction, and it was a bigger auction. Li Yang no regrets.
Li Yang couldn't stay to participate in his own auction. Zheng Kaida and Sima Lin felt a little regretful. Most of the items in their auction this time belonged to Li Yang. It can also be said that the success of this auction was entirely due to Li Yang. Yang's credit.
After learning that it was Mr. He's matter, the two of them immediately had no opinion. They both said that even if Li Yang was not there, there would be no problems in the auction on their side, and they would definitely take all of Li Yang's property. The raw materials of jadeite were sold at a satisfactory price.
After dealing with the matter here, Li Yang had nothing to do, and drove to Hong Kong with Liu Gang.
Wu Xiaoli was the person who was most unhappy about Li Yang's departure. Liu Gang did not help her get a passport. This time he went to Hong Kong to help Mr. He with shopping, not to play. Liu Gang did not dare to make his own claims. His task was to protect Li Yang.
Wu Xiaoli can only go through the formalities by herself. Even if her father is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, it will take two days to apply for a Hong Kong and Macau passport, and it must be delivered by the fastest express. She wants to enter with Li Yang. Hong Kong is obviously impossible.
Guangzhou is still very close to Hong Kong, even closer than Mingyang to Zhengzhou. After more than two hours, the two arrived at Shenzhen Bay Port.What Li Yang didn't expect was that Liu Gang also went through the customs clearance procedures for his Volvo, and the people at the port gave them a temporary China-Hong Kong license plate, and the two drove directly into Hong Kong.
Seeing this scene, Li Yang sighed very much, it is very convenient to have Liu Gang follow him.
The time when Li Yang arrived in Hong Kong was the day when they held the auction, but it was a pity that the auction was held at night, otherwise they could really wait for the auction to end before coming to Hong Kong, so that they could see their own jadeite raw materials being competed for by others scene.
Having had experience in auctions in Nanyang, Li Yang believes that there will be many people bidding for those few pieces of good raw materials, and the price will be sky-high in the end.
It was afternoon when we arrived in Hong Kong. Along the way, Li Yang looked out the window curiously. It was the first time for Li Yang to visit this city that he had seen countless times on TV. The high-rise buildings outside the window were completely different from what Li Yang imagined. .
When he arrived in Wanchai District, Li Yang finally saw some things that had appeared on the screen.
After Liu Gang drove the car to the destination, Li Yang saw the most familiar building, which appeared in almost every modern Hong Kong film, the seaside building that looked like a big turtle—the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center.
Liu Gang booked a hotel before coming here. The hotel is here in the exhibition center. Tomorrow's preview and subsequent auctions will be held here. It is very convenient to live here.
Liu Gang booked a suite, and after entering the room, Liu Gang went out by himself, leaving Li Yang to rest here alone.
The five-star hotel in Hong Kong is still very comfortable. Feeling this comfort, Li Yang sighed again. Before half a year, he never thought that his life would have such a big change. brought by the line.
Lying on the bed, Li Yang suddenly activated his special ability. He still doesn't know what these mysterious black lines in his body are.
Under the three-dimensional picture, the black lines in Li Yang's arms and palms are very clear, the black line connecting the brain in the two arms is still so long, and the ten small forked lines in the palm are still so thin.
Li Yang focused his attention on these black lines, trying to see if he could control them, but finally shook his head helplessly. He didn't have any perception of these black lines, and trying to control them was pure fantasy.
Not long after, Liu Gang came back, bringing two invitation letters and two brochures, which contained an introduction to the auction and pictures of the auction items.
Li Yang immediately brought over a brochure, sat on the sofa and flipped through it.
Li Yang, the Sotheby's auction company, has heard more than once. This is a multinational company. Its status in China is similar to that of An's in the jewelry industry. Auction companies can not compare.
This Sotheby's auction is actually an additional auction. In addition to the fixed spring auction and autumn auction, the big auction company will also add some auctions from time to time, such as Li Yang's special jadeite auction this time. It is an extra shot.
For Sotheby’s additional auction, there are two art auctions alone, namely Southeast Asian Modern and Contemporary Art Auction and Chinese Contemporary Art Auction. In addition, there are Jade Jewelry Auction and Chinese Porcelain Auction.
Calculated in this way, Sotheby's will have a total of four auctions in this additional auction, which is worthy of being an established big auction company. Their scale is beyond what Zheng Kaida can do now, and it is also Zheng Kaida's goal in the future.
The preview will be held tomorrow, and the auction will start the day after tomorrow. Sotheby's is a mature auction company. There is no need for an interval between the preview and the auction, and many people who participate in the auction are old customers. They are very strict with their company's rules. familiar.
The four auctions were held for a total of two days. The first day was the auction of modern artworks. Li Yang didn't care whether he went or not.The next day is the focus. At ten o'clock in the morning is the auction of jadeite jewelry, and in the afternoon it is the auction of Chinese porcelain. The blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty that Mr. He is looking for will be auctioned in the afternoon.
"Yuan Qinghua!"
Li Yang sighed heavily looking at the photo of the Yuan blue and white figure pot in the 'Jinxiang Pavilion' on the brochure.Today's Li Yang is not as ignorant as before. After reading so many precious materials and supplementing a lot of knowledge about antiques, he understands the meaning of the three words Yuan blue and white very well.
For a long time, the origin of Yuan Qinghua was a mystery.
If there are new varieties of Chinese ceramics, they all have clear identities and clear contexts. Only Yuan Qinghua has no infancy, no childhood, no teenagers. When the world sees it, it is already a young man in full bloom, which makes many Doubt its origin.
The main reason is that in the two dynasties of Ming and Qing Dynasties with a history of more than 500 years, there was no record of Yuan blue and white porcelain. Traditionally, it has been believed that blue and white porcelain was only created and fired during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. The most favorable evidence is The blue and white materials that Zheng He brought back from his voyages to the West.
Even in the period of the Republic of China, Chinese people believed that blue and white porcelain began in the Ming Dynasty. It was not until the 50s that the American Alexander demonstrated the existence of Yuan blue and white porcelain for the first time. When this result was announced, it shocked the entire Chinese collectors. .
Since then, Yuan Qinghua has slowly entered the field of vision of collectors.
So far, there are only more than 300 pieces of Yuan blue and white that have been recognized by the academic circles in the world. There are more than 2005 pieces in Chinese collections, most of which are in museums around the world, and very few are circulated in the market. In 2.3, a large pot of Yuan blue and white "Guiguzi descending the mountain" was sold for a sky-high price of [-] million yuan in London, England. In an instant, Yuan blue and white became the darling in the eyes of everyone, and also became a symbol of wealth and status.
Today, there are still many people among the people who claim to have Yuan Qinghua in their hands, but whether it is true or false requires careful research.
Looking at the photos in the brochure, Li Yang felt a little jealous. Anyone who loves to collect such a good collection would probably be tempted to see it. Of course, whether it can be collected or not depends on one's ability.
The blue-and-white piece of Yuan Dynasty that Mr. He took a fancy to is painted on Wang Zhongwen's famous drama "Meng Yuemei Writes Hate at the Jinxiang Pavilion". where to go.
Among Yuan blue and white porcelains, the most precious ones are porcelains with figures painted on them, all of which belong to the top national treasures, and are treasures among Yuan blue and white treasures. Take a photo of this top national treasure and go back to appreciate it slowly.
Closing the brochure, Li Yang slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Li Yang was determined to win this piece of Yuan blue and white. If he wanted to bid for it at the auction, he still needed to know more about this auction item. The introduction is not enough.
As early as the day before yesterday after receiving a call from Mr. He, Li Yang began to search for information on this piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain. Unfortunately, he could not find much. What he has learned so far is very limited. What Li Yang knows, others do not know. For sure.
Mr. He also failed to provide much help to Li Yang. Mr. He learned more than Li Yang, but it did not directly help him to participate in the auction. Li Yang could only rely on himself in the auction.
After resting in the hotel for a while, the sky gradually darkened. Looking out from the window, the neon lights that had been lit up looked extraordinarily dazzling.
"Brother Li, should we ask the waiter to bring in the food, or should we go out to eat by ourselves!"
When Liu Gang came over, Li Yang looked up out of the window, only to find that the sky outside had completely darkened. He has been concentrating on looking at the color book, and he did not expect the time to pass so quickly.
"what time is it now?"
"It's almost 07:30!"
"It's 07:30, Brother Zheng's auction is about to start, let's go out and eat!"
Li Yang stood up, stretched himself out, and temporarily forgot about the Yuan blue and white matter.Before coming here, Sima Linke had said to Li Yang that the food in Hong Kong is very good. If their auction and the Hong Kong auction hadn’t overlapped again this time, he would have wanted to accompany Li Yang to Hong Kong and taste it again. Taste the delicacies of Hong Kong.
Near the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, there is a good restaurant, which is very famous in Hong Kong. Sima Lin mentioned it before coming here. After not walking far, Li Yang discovered this western-style restaurant named 'Victoria'. The restaurant, immediately walked in with Liu Gang.
"Sir, do you have a reservation?"
As soon as he entered the restaurant, a beautiful waiter came up and smiled at Li Yang. Li Yang looked around and replied honestly: "No!"
"Okay, sir, follow me please!"
The waiter made a gesture, and Li Yang and Liu Gang followed her and walked forward. Li Yang sighed as he walked, the high-end restaurant is really good, the environment is so good, so many people are dining, and they can't hear any noise.
Sima Lin told Li Yang that the steak and snails here are good. Li Yang and Liu Gang each ordered one and a bottle of red wine.Do you do as the Romans do? It seems strange not to drink some red wine in a western restaurant, but the price on the menu also made Li Yang shake his head secretly. This meal cost him several months of salary.
From frugality to extravagance is easy, from extravagance to frugality is difficult.
During this period of time, Li Yang was with Zheng Kaida and Sima Lin, and they had the best room and board every day. He was almost used to this extravagant life, and he was not as uncomfortable as he was at the beginning. Now Li Yang went in and out of this place. Such a high-end place, without any psychological burden.
While Li Yang was expressing his emotions here, the auction in Guangzhou officially started.
Both Zhu Lei and Li Can are busy. There will be more than 100 people participating in this auction, and a live telephone station is set up so that those who don't have time to come can bid remotely through the phone.
But the two young people who attracted the most attention at the scene were An Wenjun and Shao Yuhua. The people who came basically knew the relationship between the two companies.With so many high-end jade raw materials appearing this time, there will definitely be a battle between the two companies, and a few people who join in the fun are stretching their necks and waiting to watch the show.
The first item to be auctioned is Wu Xiaoli's small piece of apple green ice jadeite. The first auction item should not be too bad, but the price should not be too high. Wu Xiaoli's piece of ice jade is the most suitable. Everyone's bid for this small piece of ice will not be too low.
In the end, Wu Xiaoli's small piece of ice was sold at a price of 120 million. This price can be said to be very low. It can only be sold at this price when it is made into jewelry. It is almost impossible to make money, and it may even cost some processing. fee.
The person who took the bid for this piece of jade was someone from Laofengxiang Jewelry Company. Both An's and Shaw's bids were made in the first round, but they did not bid on this piece of jade.
The second piece is Zhang Wei's gold silk jadeite. This piece of raw material is of good quality, and its size is much larger than the ice jade just now. As soon as the reserve price was released, many jewelry companies competed for bids. Zhang Wei who came to the auction site Laughing mouth can not close.
The next thing to be auctioned is a piece of ice jadeite, the raw material of which Li Yang unwrapped from wool material No. 605 in Mingbiao Auction. This piece of wool material made Shao Yuqiang regret it for a long time.
The large piece of ice was divided into three pieces, each weighing several kilograms, and now only one of them is being auctioned.
"What is going to be auctioned now is ice seed raw material, which weighs 500 kilograms and is oval in shape. Whether it is making bracelets or other jewelry, it is the most economical. The reserve price is [-] million, and the minimum price for each bid is [-]. !"
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, people below kept raising placards, and from time to time, people raised the price aloud, and soon the price of this piece of wool was increased to 900 million.
"2000 million!"
Shao Yuhua opened his mouth suddenly, and suddenly increased from 900 million to 2000 million, and all the people present became completely silent in an instant.I have seen price increases, but I have never seen such a ruthless price increase as he did. It more than doubled at once, and the price was directly four times higher than the base price.
"2000 million. This gentleman has reached 2000 million. Is there anyone who is higher than him? If not, today's ice seed material weighing more than ten catties belongs to this gentleman!"
The auctioneer raised his hammer and shouted, looking very excited.
Zheng Kaida was also very excited. The two items that were auctioned before were worth 200 million yuan. The price of this piece of ice was 2000 million yuan in a short time. In an auction, 2000 million high-priced items can appear Not much.
This is just the beginning. There are still two ice-type jadeites similar to this one, and there are also more valuable glass-type jadeite raw materials. There is absolutely no problem with today's auction exceeding [-] million yuan. The real opener of their Lida auction.
An Wenjun hesitated for a moment. His psychological price for this piece of ice jadeite was 800 million, and 800 million would not make much money. Unexpectedly, Shao Yuhua directly offered a price that exceeded her psychological price before she even made an offer. The price made An Wenjun a little overwhelmed.
"2000 million, this emerald belongs to Mr. No. 16!"
The auctioneer slammed down the hammer, An Wenjun's eyes suddenly lit up, he immediately sat up straight, turned his head and took a hard look at Shao Yuhua, the number 16 was Shao Yuhua's license plate number.
Shao Yuhua chuckled, and sat on the chair with his arms folded, showing a little complacency.
An Wenjun now understands that Shao Yuhua's outrageous high price was intended to deal with her, and today Shao's has no plan to make money to bring back these woolen materials.
Shao Yuhua took advantage of An Wenjun's inability to understand, and took a piece of ice jadeite all at once, and the Shao family would also lose some money for this piece of jadeite.But if it is added little by little, Shaw may not lose a little in the end. Even if they finally get the piece of wool, An Wenjun believes that the price is definitely not 2000 million.
"Humph!"
An Wenjun snorted angrily, and didn't look at Shao Yuhua. She has a lot of power in this bidding for jadeite. Even if she loses money, it doesn't matter. The first task is to snipe Shao. It's a pity that she lost a while after the fight. Shaw took away a piece of ice seed raw material.
The next thing to be auctioned was a piece of emerald belonging to Sima Lin. This time, An Wenjun showed an aggressive posture when he came up. Shao Yuhua kept smiling with his arms folded, but he didn't say a word.
In the end, Sima Lin's piece of gold thread was bought by An's at a high price, which made many people in other jewelry companies a little dissatisfied.
They know that two kinds of raw materials, ice seed and glass seed, will definitely have big competition between An's and Shaw. Except for the top ten big companies, many companies have given up competition for this kind of raw material and have all set their sights on it. As for other mid-to-high-end raw materials, I didn't expect An's to be so ferocious to these raw materials, and they would rob them even if they lost money.
Invisibly, the people in these jewelry companies regarded An Shi as their biggest enemy.
For the few emeralds below, An Wenjun made provocative moves, but Shao Yuhua never responded, just sat there quietly, not even making a bid.
This made An Wenjun very suspicious, but unfortunately, she didn't know, and repeatedly charged high prices for mid-to-high-end jadeite, which made many other jewelry companies dissatisfied with An's heart.
The auctioneer changed the picture, and the ice jade appeared on the big screen again. Seeing this kind of jade, the top-ranked companies became excited.
"The piece below is unraveled from the same piece of wool as the piece of jade that was auctioned at a high price of 2000 million just now. It weighs 550 kilograms and has a reserve price of [-] million. The minimum price for each bid is [-]..."
"1000 million!"
Before the auctioneer's voice fell, An Wenjun bid. It's okay if the general mid-to-high-end jadeites are not sold, the company can survive, but An Wenjun is absolutely unwilling to let high-end jadeites like ice species be let go.
In particular, the large ice species has long been determined by An Shi to seize it, but An Wenjun had a bad start, and was snatched by Shao Shi when he came up. At this moment, she was annoyed in her heart, so she came up at the reserve price doubled.
At the same time, An Wenjun was also sneering in his heart. Don't even think about using the method Shao Yuhua used just now. Even if he adds up to 2000 million, An Wenjun will continue to follow the bidding.
"100 million!"
The bidder was not Shao Yuhua, but someone from another jewelry company, which is also a company with great strength. Although it is not as good as An's and Shao's, it is not too far behind.
"1000 two million!"
Another person directly added 100 million. An Wenjun glanced at Shao Yuhua suspiciously. Shao Yuhua was sitting there with his arms folded, showing no sign of anxiety.
"1000 two million one hundred thousand!"
Some people raised their cards directly, and then others raised their cards continuously. After a while, the price of this piece of ice broke through 400 million, approaching the price of 500 million.
This price is not low, but it is not as good as the price of 2000 million just now. This piece of jade is heavier than the one just now. Everyone knows that 500 million is definitely not its final result.
Sure enough, when it reached 500 million, An Wenjun made another bid, this time directly adding 300 million, and quoted a high price of 800 million.
As soon as the price came out, several companies that were highly competitive just now paused, and the price temporarily stopped there.
However, these companies also felt a little annoyed with An Wenjun. Unknowingly, half of the people in the auction meeting had opinions on An's, which An Wenjun never thought of before.
"2000 million!"
Shao Yuhua finally raised his placard, and the other jewelry companies were silent. 2000 million is a loss price. Their life is very tight, unlike An's and Shao's who are desperately competing, and they don't want to pay so much to buy these emeralds raw material.
"50 million!"
An Wenjun raised his card and added 50. Now An Wenjun dare not add that much at once. If you add more, you will pay more.
"Hey, 500 million!" Shao Yuhua laughed, held up the sign, and quoted a shocking price.
500 million, if only a small amount of 2000 million is paid, then 500 million is equivalent to more than 500 million in compensation. This is not a small amount. No matter how big Shaw is, it can't be compensated with money like this.
An Wenjun hesitated again. She could accept losing money, but she couldn't bear to lose too much. The loss of more than 500 million yuan for a piece of ice seed wool was indeed a bit big.
Looking back at Shao Yuhua, An Wenjun immediately noticed a triumphant smile on Shao Yuhua's face, and suddenly, she remembered what An Zhicheng said to her before:
"Wenjun, in this auction of jadeite raw materials, don't think about making money from the things you auction. It is the most important thing for us to protect the market and prevent Shaw from getting these raw materials!"
Thinking of this, An Wenjun immediately showed firm eyes, and immediately raised the sign before the auctioneer dropped the hammer.
"510 million. Miss No. 8 bid 510 million. Now it's 510 million. Is there a higher price? If not, this piece of ice material weighing six kilograms will have to be with this The lady is married!"
The auctioneer immediately yelled, his job is to mobilize the atmosphere of the scene and bid higher prices for the auction items.
After An Wenjun raised the placard, she glanced at Shao Yuhua triumphantly, but she didn't find any disappointment on Shao Yuhua's face, instead she felt that Shao Yuhua had that sinister smile of success.
"not good!"
An Wenjun's heart sank, Shao Yuhua did not increase the price afterwards, and this piece of ice jadeite, which was more than 500 million yuan more than its own value, finally fell into An's hands.
At this time, An Wenjun finally understood that Shao Yuhua knew that she would continue to compete for this piece of jade, so he simply set the price too high by 500 million yuan to make An's pay more.
In other words, Shao Yuhua didn't really want to bid for this piece of wool from the very beginning. It was not so easy to grab something from An's hands. His purpose was to make An's more losses. The greater An's losses, It will be more beneficial to them Shaw Brothers.
An Wenjun is very smart, her guess is close to the truth, Shao Yuhua really planted a hole for her this time, the purpose is to consume more funds in An Wenjun's hands, and at the same time make An Wenjun's auctions feel worried and dare not In such a fight.
In this round of competition, An Wenjun seemed to have won, but in fact she was the one who lost.
An Wenjun was born in a wealthy family, and has a high degree of education and ability, but he is obviously inferior to Shao Yuhua in the complex struggle of intrigue. Shao Yuhua is nearly ten years older than An Wenjun, and is the powerful vice president of Shaw Corporation. She is more scheming than her. Much heavier.
As a result of the two confrontations, An Wenjun was no longer so confident, and he became deeply jealous of Shao Yuhua.
At the back, Sima Lin, who was standing there watching the auction process, said to Zheng Kaida very satisfied: "Old Zheng, it seems that the effect is very good. The auction price of these jadeites is much higher than what we expected!"
Zheng Kaida's face immediately revealed a look of complacency, and he said with a hey smile: "That is, is my idea still bad? This is just the beginning, just wait and see, the competition between An's and Shao's will become more and more fierce in the future. Shaw gave up a piece of ice seed, and cheated An's, but I'm afraid the people below will not give up, the more raw materials An's has, the harder it will be for them in the future!"
Zheng Kaida's analysis was very good. Before the auction, he carefully analyzed the competition between Shaw Brothers and An's Brothers, so he divided up the jadeite auctions. The greater their competition, the more beneficial it is for Zheng Kaida and the others.
With Li Yang's performance, Zheng Kaida is not afraid at all that they will not cooperate with his company. In this case, it is better to create more profits for Li Yang. Anyway, these big companies have tens of billions of assets, and they will lose all this money rise.

A chapter was uploaded after nine o'clock, but Xiaoyu forgot to post it. I'm really sorry, let's post these two chapters together. Xiaoyu will continue to code words and will add another chapter later.
(End of this chapter)
After finishing the preview, Li Yang told Zheng Kaida and the others about his going to Hong Kong.
Speaking of which, Li Yang is already a director of a large-scale auction company, but he has not really participated in a formal large-scale auction.

Wu Xiaoli can only go through the formalities by herself. Even if her father is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, it will take two days to apply for a Hong Kong and Macau passport, and it must be delivered by the fastest express. She wants to enter with Li Yang. Hong Kong is obviously impossible.
Guangzhou is still very close to Hong Kong, even closer than Mingyang to Zhengzhou.

Li Yang focused his attention on these black lines, trying to see if he could control them, but finally shook his head helplessly. He didn't have any perception of these black lines, and trying to control them was pure fantasy.
Not long after, Liu Gang came back, bringing two invitation letters and two brochures, which contained an introduction to the auction and pictures of the auction items.
Li Yang immediately brought over a brochure, sat on the sofa and flipped through it.

At ten o'clock in the morning is the auction of jadeite jewelry, and in the afternoon it is the auction of Chinese porcelain. The blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty that Mr. He is looking for will be auctioned in the afternoon.
"Yuan Qinghua!"
Li Yang sighed heavily looking at the photo of the Yuan blue and white figure pot in the 'Jinxiang Pavilion' on the brochure.Today's Li Yang is not as ignorant as before.

Since then, Yuan Qinghua has slowly entered the field of vision of collectors.
So far, there are only more than 300 pieces of Yuan blue and white that have been recognized by the academic circles in the world. There are more than 2005 pieces in Chinese collections, most of which are in museums around the world, and very few are circulated in the market. In 2.3, a large pot of Yuan blue and white "Guiguzi descending the mountain" was sold for a sky-high price of [-] million yuan in London, England. In an instant, Yuan blue and white became the darling in the eyes of everyone, and also became a symbol of wealth and status.
Today, there are still many people among the people who claim to have Yuan Qinghua in their hands, but whether it is true or false requires careful research.
Looking at the photos in the brochure, Li Yang felt a little jealous. Anyone who loves to collect such a good collection would probably be tempted to see it. Of course, whether it can be collected or not depends on one's ability.
The blue-and-white piece of Yuan Dynasty that Mr. He took a fancy to is painted on Wang Zhongwen's famous drama "Meng Yuemei Writes Hate at the Jinxiang Pavilion". where to go.
Among Yuan blue and white porcelains, the most precious ones are porcelains with figures painted on them, all of which belong to the top national treasures, and are treasures among Yuan blue and white treasures. Take a photo of this top national treasure and go back to appreciate it slowly.
Closing the brochure, Li Yang slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Li Yang was determined to win this piece of Yuan blue and white. If he wanted to bid for it at the auction, he still needed to know more about this auction item. The introduction is not enough.
As early as the day before yesterday after receiving a call from Mr. He, Li Yang began to search for information on this piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain. Unfortunately, he could not find much. What he has learned so far is very limited. What Li Yang knows, others do not know. For sure.
Mr. He also failed to provide much help to Li Yang. Mr. He learned more than Li Yang, but it did not directly help him to participate in the auction. Li Yang could only rely on himself in the auction.
After resting in the hotel for a while, the sky gradually darkened. Looking out from the window, the neon lights that had been lit up looked extraordinarily dazzling.
"Brother Li, should we ask the waiter to bring in the food, or should we go out to eat by ourselves!"
When Liu Gang came over, Li Yang looked up out of the window, only to find that the sky outside had completely darkened. He has been concentrating on looking at the color book, and he did not expect the time to pass so quickly.
"what time is it now?"
"It's almost 07:30!"
"It's 07:30, Brother Zheng's auction is about to start, let's go out and eat!"
Li Yang stood up, stretched himself out, and temporarily forgot about the Yuan blue and white matter.Before coming here, Sima Linke had said to Li Yang that the food in Hong Kong is very good. If their auction and the Hong Kong auction hadn’t overlapped again this time, he would have wanted to accompany Li Yang to Hong Kong and taste it again. Taste the delicacies of Hong Kong.
Near the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, there is a good restaurant, which is very famous in Hong Kong. Sima Lin mentioned it before coming here. After not walking far, Li Yang discovered this western-style restaurant named 'Victoria'. The restaurant, immediately walked in with Liu Gang.
"Sir, do you have a reservation?"
As soon as he entered the restaurant, a beautiful waiter came up and smiled at Li Yang. Li Yang looked around and replied honestly: "No!"
"Okay, sir, follow me please!"
The waiter made a gesture, and Li Yang and Liu Gang followed her and walked forward. Li Yang sighed as he walked, the high-end restaurant is really good, the environment is so good, so many people are dining, and they can't hear any noise.
Sima Lin told Li Yang that the steak and snails here are good. Li Yang and Liu Gang each ordered one and a bottle of red wine.Do you do as the Romans do? It seems strange not to drink some red wine in a western restaurant, but the price on the menu also made Li Yang shake his head secretly. This meal cost him several months of salary.
From frugality to extravagance is easy, from extravagance to frugality is difficult.
During this period of time, Li Yang was with Zheng Kaida and Sima Lin, and they had the best room and board every day. He was almost used to this extravagant life, and he was not as uncomfortable as he was at the beginning. Now Li Yang went in and out of this place. Such a high-end place, without any psychological burden.
While Li Yang was expressing his emotions here, the auction in Guangzhou officially started.
Both Zhu Lei and Li Can are busy. There will be more than 100 people participating in this auction, and a live telephone station is set up so that those who don't have time to come can bid remotely through the phone.
But the two young people who attracted the most attention at the scene were An Wenjun and Shao Yuhua. The people who came basically knew the relationship between the two companies.With so many high-end jade raw materials appearing this time, there will definitely be a battle between the two companies, and a few people who join in the fun are stretching their necks and waiting to watch the show.
The first item to be auctioned is Wu Xiaoli's small piece of apple green ice jadeite. The first auction item should not be too bad, but the price should not be too high. Wu Xiaoli's piece of ice jade is the most suitable. Everyone's bid for this small piece of ice will not be too low.
In the end, Wu Xiaoli's small piece of ice was sold at a price of 120 million. This price can be said to be very low. It can only be sold at this price when it is made into jewelry. It is almost impossible to make money, and it may even cost some processing. fee.
The person who took the bid for this piece of jade was someone from Laofengxiang Jewelry Company. Both An's and Shaw's bids were made in the first round, but they did not bid on this piece of jade.
The second piece is Zhang Wei's gold silk jadeite. This piece of raw material is of good quality, and its size is much larger than the ice jade just now. As soon as the reserve price was released, many jewelry companies competed for bids. Zhang Wei who came to the auction site Laughing mouth can not close.
The next thing to be auctioned is a piece of ice jadeite, the raw material of which Li Yang unwrapped from wool material No. 605 in Mingbiao Auction. This piece of wool material made Shao Yuqiang regret it for a long time.
The large piece of ice was divided into three pieces, each weighing several kilograms, and now only one of them is being auctioned.
"What is going to be auctioned now is ice seed raw material, which weighs 500 kilograms and is oval in shape. Whether it is making bracelets or other jewelry, it is the most economical. The reserve price is [-] million, and the minimum price for each bid is [-]. !"
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, people below kept raising placards, and from time to time, people raised the price aloud, and soon the price of this piece of wool was increased to 900 million.
"2000 million!"
Shao Yuhua opened his mouth suddenly, and suddenly increased from 900 million to 2000 million, and all the people present became completely silent in an instant.I have seen price increases, but I have never seen such a ruthless price increase as he did. It more than doubled at once, and the price was directly four times higher than the base price.
"2000 million. This gentleman has reached 2000 million. Is there anyone who is higher than him? If not, today's ice seed material weighing more than ten catties belongs to this gentleman!"
The auctioneer raised his hammer and shouted, looking very excited.
Zheng Kaida was also very excited. The two items that were auctioned before were worth 200 million yuan. The price of this piece of ice was 2000 million yuan in a short time. In an auction, 2000 million high-priced items can appear Not much.
This is just the beginning. There are still two ice-type jadeites similar to this one, and there are also more valuable glass-type jadeite raw materials. There is absolutely no problem with today's auction exceeding [-] million yuan. The real opener of their Lida auction.
An Wenjun hesitated for a moment. His psychological price for this piece of ice jadeite was 800 million, and 800 million would not make much money. Unexpectedly, Shao Yuhua directly offered a price that exceeded her psychological price before she even made an offer. The price made An Wenjun a little overwhelmed.
"2000 million, this emerald belongs to Mr. No. 16!"
The auctioneer slammed down the hammer, An Wenjun's eyes suddenly lit up, he immediately sat up straight, turned his head and took a hard look at Shao Yuhua, the number 16 was Shao Yuhua's license plate number.
Shao Yuhua chuckled, and sat on the chair with his arms folded, showing a little complacency.
An Wenjun now understands that Shao Yuhua's outrageous high price was intended to deal with her, and today Shao's has no plan to make money to bring back these woolen materials.
Shao Yuhua took advantage of An Wenjun's inability to understand, and took a piece of ice jadeite all at once, and the Shao family would also lose some money for this piece of jadeite.But if it is added little by little, Shaw may not lose a little in the end. Even if they finally get the piece of wool, An Wenjun believes that the price is definitely not 2000 million.
"Humph!"
An Wenjun snorted angrily, and didn't look at Shao Yuhua. She has a lot of power in this bidding for jadeite. Even if she loses money, it doesn't matter. The first task is to snipe Shao. It's a pity that she lost a while after the fight. Shaw took away a piece of ice seed raw material.
The next thing to be auctioned was a piece of emerald belonging to Sima Lin. This time, An Wenjun showed an aggressive posture when he came up. Shao Yuhua kept smiling with his arms folded, but he didn't say a word.
In the end, Sima Lin's piece of gold thread was bought by An's at a high price, which made many people in other jewelry companies a little dissatisfied.
They know that two kinds of raw materials, ice seed and glass seed, will definitely have big competition between An's and Shaw. Except for the top ten big companies, many companies have given up competition for this kind of raw material and have all set their sights on it. As for other mid-to-high-end raw materials, I didn't expect An's to be so ferocious to these raw materials, and they would rob them even if they lost money.
Invisibly, the people in these jewelry companies regarded An Shi as their biggest enemy.
For the few emeralds below, An Wenjun made provocative moves, but Shao Yuhua never responded, just sat there quietly, not even making a bid.
This made An Wenjun very suspicious, but unfortunately, she didn't know, and repeatedly charged high prices for mid-to-high-end jadeite, which made many other jewelry companies dissatisfied with An's heart.
The auctioneer changed the picture, and the ice jade appeared on the big screen again. Seeing this kind of jade, the top-ranked companies became excited.
"The piece below is unraveled from the same piece of wool as the piece of jade that was auctioned at a high price of 2000 million just now. It weighs 550 kilograms and has a reserve price of [-] million. The minimum price for each bid is [-]..."
"1000 million!"
Before the auctioneer's voice fell, An Wenjun bid. It's okay if the general mid-to-high-end jadeites are not sold, the company can survive, but An Wenjun is absolutely unwilling to let high-end jadeites like ice species be let go.
In particular, the large ice species has long been determined by An Shi to seize it, but An Wenjun had a bad start, and was snatched by Shao Shi when he came up. At this moment, she was annoyed in her heart, so she came up at the reserve price doubled.
At the same time, An Wenjun was also sneering in his heart. Don't even think about using the method Shao Yuhua used just now. Even if he adds up to 2000 million, An Wenjun will continue to follow the bidding.
"100 million!"
The bidder was not Shao Yuhua, but someone from another jewelry company, which is also a company with great strength. Although it is not as good as An's and Shao's, it is not too far behind.
"1000 two million!"
Another person directly added 100 million. An Wenjun glanced at Shao Yuhua suspiciously. Shao Yuhua was sitting there with his arms folded, showing no sign of anxiety.
"1000 two million one hundred thousand!"
Some people raised their cards directly, and then others raised their cards continuously. After a while, the price of this piece of ice broke through 400 million, approaching the price of 500 million.
This price is not low, but it is not as good as the price of 2000 million just now. This piece of jade is heavier than the one just now. Everyone knows that 500 million is definitely not its final result.
Sure enough, when it reached 500 million, An Wenjun made another bid, this time directly adding 300 million, and quoted a high price of 800 million.
As soon as the price came out, several companies that were highly competitive just now paused, and the price temporarily stopped there.
However, these companies also felt a little annoyed with An Wenjun. Unknowingly, half of the people in the auction meeting had opinions on An's, which An Wenjun never thought of before.
"2000 million!"
Shao Yuhua finally raised his placard, and the other jewelry companies were silent. 2000 million is a loss price. Their life is very tight, unlike An's and Shao's who are desperately competing, and they don't want to pay so much to buy these emeralds raw material.
"50 million!"
An Wenjun raised his card and added 50. Now An Wenjun dare not add that much at once. If you add more, you will pay more.
"Hey, 500 million!" Shao Yuhua laughed, held up the sign, and quoted a shocking price.
500 million, if only a small amount of 2000 million is paid, then 500 million is equivalent to more than 500 million in compensation. This is not a small amount. No matter how big Shaw is, it can't be compensated with money like this.
An Wenjun hesitated again. She could accept losing money, but she couldn't bear to lose too much. The loss of more than 500 million yuan for a piece of ice seed wool was indeed a bit big.
Looking back at Shao Yuhua, An Wenjun immediately noticed a triumphant smile on Shao Yuhua's face, and suddenly, she remembered what An Zhicheng said to her before:
"Wenjun, in this auction of jadeite raw materials, don't think about making money from the things you auction. It is the most important thing for us to protect the market and prevent Shaw from getting these raw materials!"
Thinking of this, An Wenjun immediately showed firm eyes, and immediately raised the sign before the auctioneer dropped the hammer.
"510 million. Miss No. 8 bid 510 million. Now it's 510 million. Is there a higher price? If not, this piece of ice material weighing six kilograms will have to be with this The lady is married!"
The auctioneer immediately yelled, his job is to mobilize the atmosphere of the scene and bid higher prices for the auction items.
After An Wenjun raised the placard, she glanced at Shao Yuhua triumphantly, but she didn't find any disappointment on Shao Yuhua's face, instead she felt that Shao Yuhua had that sinister smile of success.
"not good!"
An Wenjun's heart sank, Shao Yuhua did not increase the price afterwards, and this piece of ice jadeite, which was more than 500 million yuan more than its own value, finally fell into An's hands.
At this time, An Wenjun finally understood that Shao Yuhua knew that she would continue to compete for this piece of jade, so he simply set the price too high by 500 million yuan to make An's pay more.
In other words, Shao Yuhua didn't really want to bid for this piece of wool from the very beginning. It was not so easy to grab something from An's hands. His purpose was to make An's more losses. The greater An's losses, It will be more beneficial to them Shaw Brothers.
An Wenjun is very smart, her guess is close to the truth, Shao Yuhua really planted a hole for her this time, the purpose is to consume more funds in An Wenjun's hands, and at the same time make An Wenjun's auctions feel worried and dare not In such a fight.
In this round of competition, An Wenjun seemed to have won, but in fact she was the one who lost.
An Wenjun was born in a wealthy family, and has a high degree of education and ability, but he is obviously inferior to Shao Yuhua in the complex struggle of intrigue. Shao Yuhua is nearly ten years older than An Wenjun, and is the powerful vice president of Shaw Corporation. She is more scheming than her. Much heavier.
As a result of the two confrontations, An Wenjun was no longer so confident, and he became deeply jealous of Shao Yuhua.
At the back, Sima Lin, who was standing there watching the auction process, said to Zheng Kaida very satisfied: "Old Zheng, it seems that the effect is very good. The auction price of these jadeites is much higher than what we expected!"
Zheng Kaida's face immediately revealed a look of complacency, and he said with a hey smile: "That is, is my idea still bad? This is just the beginning, just wait and see, the competition between An's and Shao's will become more and more fierce in the future. Shaw gave up a piece of ice seed, and cheated An's, but I'm afraid the people below will not give up, the more raw materials An's has, the harder it will be for them in the future!"
Zheng Kaida's analysis was very good. Before the auction, he carefully analyzed the competition between Shaw Brothers and An's Brothers, so he divided up the jadeite auctions. The greater their competition, the more beneficial it is for Zheng Kaida and the others.
With Li Yang's performance, Zheng Kaida is not afraid at all that they will not cooperate with his company. In this case, it is better to create more profits for Li Yang. Anyway, these big companies have tens of billions of assets, and they will lose all this money rise.
