Chapter 646 Everyone Scared Away!
"The people of the country should strengthen themselves!"

I don’t know who said it, but the media people here all nodded their heads in agreement. In this regard, Chinese people really need to be tougher, so as not to be so passive in the international auction market, so as to have the qualification and possibility to enter the international auction market. Be a participant, even a leader, rather than a spectator or a crowd of onlookers.

"In the final analysis, we still have to speak with our strength. As long as we have strength and resources, we will naturally attract the attention of foreigners," said a senior media person.

"That's right, just like the few royal gold coins exhibited by you, Boss Li, today, I think they attracted many foreigners to watch them today." An editor-in-chief who has studied the international antique market said, "At that time, I I listened to it for a while, and they spoke very highly of those gold coins, and said that if they can be auctioned in the European market, they will definitely fetch a good price.”

"I also feel that there are obviously more foreigners in today's preview than usual. I wonder when they became so interested in our antiques. It turns out that there are other pictures. In other words, those few gold coins are still in the preview. It’s really not very noticeable, if it weren’t for those foreigners, I really didn’t pay much attention.”

"Most of the people who came to the preview today are for the custom-made antiques. Who cares about how many foreign gold coins? Besides, there are not many people collecting foreign gold coins in China. Compared with the antiques on display, those few A foreign gold coin is really nothing, and only those foreigners will pay attention."

"Boss Li, you are still awesome. Just put out a few gold coins at will, and you have attracted the attention of so many foreigners. I thought that on the day of the auction, these foreigners would definitely come to compete for those few royal gold coins." Yes, such scenes are rare in domestic auctions, and in our country, auctioning foreign antiques is to give our circle a face."

In the antique business, everyone felt ashamed that their own country's antiques were auctioned by foreign countries, but now it's the other way around. Although it's not a priceless treasure, it's still a sigh of relief for everyone.

"Boss Li, as far as I know, these royal gold coins are very rare and worth a lot. If they are auctioned in Europe, especially in the country where these royal gold coins belong, their value will definitely increase. So, Boss Li Excuse me, can you tell me who entrusted these royal gold coins to your Nostalgic Art Auction Company? Presumably this person must have a good relationship with Boss Li." The senior reporter of market news looked at Li Dacheng, his eyes kept shining, as if he wanted to see something from the expression on Li Dacheng's face.

Hearing this person's words, the private room immediately fell silent. All the people present were experts, so they knew what the reporter meant. What the other party wanted to express was that the person who entrusted the royal gold coins to Huaigu for auction must be It's not for money, otherwise it should be taken abroad.

Could it be that he was fooled by Boss Li?Probably not, it is not an ordinary person who can take out such a rare foreign royal gold coin.

Li Dacheng, who had been silent all this time, put down the chopsticks in his hand, took a sip of tea from his cup, and said lightly, "To be honest, these royal gold coins are my private collection."

"what?"

Everyone's eyes were wide open, their faces were stunned, and time seemed to stop at this moment. No one thought that those few foreign royal gold coins belonged to Boss Li himself, and the boss of Huaigu put his private collection up for auction?What is this picture?
"Haha!" Just when everyone was surprised, Yu Kaidong laughed, "You only know that Boss Li is the owner of Huaigu Art Auction Company, but you don't know that he is also a collector? Let me tell you, Boss Li The antiques in the collection are not only the best among the best, but also include antiques from all countries in the world."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Boss Li, you are hiding deep enough."

"Yes, when will you show us your private collection, so that we can keep an eye on it." Everyone said, no wonder there are so many priceless antiques in the Huaigu auction. It turns out that Boss Li A collector in itself.

"Don't listen to Lao Yu's nonsense, all I collect are gadgets, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning." Li Dacheng waved his hands modestly.

"Boss Li, since the gold coins are yours, can you tell me why you auctioned them off? Don't tell us you are short of money."

"Boss Li, you didn't take it out on purpose to make trouble, did you?"

Li Dacheng smiled slightly at this time, looked at the crowd and said, "You guessed it right, I really want something higher."

"What's the matter?" The person on the side asked.

"It was originally a secret of our company, and only a few people knew about it, but Lao Yu said that everyone is not an outsider, so I will tell you today." Li Dacheng sat upright, looked around, and then looked serious. Said, "We want to enter the international auction market. These royal gold coins are deliberately arranged in the preview to attract the attention of foreign collectors." Originally, Li Dacheng was not in a hurry, but the Solomon incident made him decide to plan ahead. , Give the opponent a strong counterattack.

"Entering the international market?"

Everyone was shocked!

Although the domestic auction market is prosperous, there is not even a single international auction company that can really sell. They all rely on their own three-acre land to survive. It's not that everyone has no ambitions. No.1 breaking into the world?Just entering the international market is not easy. Because of the special nature of the auction industry, the international market has always been controlled by a few auction houses. This has also caused many domestic auction houses to end in failure after the impact.

To put it bluntly, it is impossible to produce treasures that can attract collectors from all over the world. At home, it is no problem to rely on these antiques, but when it comes to the world, it is necessary to produce works of art that everyone recognizes. It didn't work, and the final auction price of many auction items was not even as high as the domestic auction price. Over time, the company could not sustain itself, and gradually disappeared in the international market.

Counting it, it has been a long time since any auction house announced that it would enter the international market.

And today, right here, the boss of Nostalgic Art Auction Company personally announced that he would enter the international market. This is definitely a big news in the circle, enough news to shock the entire antique circle.

Before the headlines of the preview had time to be published in the newspaper, another even more explosive headline broke out?

This is too exciting, right?My little heart can't stand it.

"Li, Boss Li, are you kidding us?" After a long time, someone asked in a stammering voice.

If he remembers correctly, Boss Li has only been in charge of the auction house for a year. Although Huai Gu has achieved extraordinary results in this year, is it too early to enter the international market?Is it just with those few royal gold coins?At least a few decent international artworks have to be produced.

"Do I seem to be joking now?" Li Dacheng asked, "I didn't drink."

"..." After being confirmed, everyone looked at each other, and finally fell silent.

They have seen too many similar scenes and similar people. In the beginning, everyone was full of pride and envisioned a wonderful future, but in the end, they all returned home in despair, and no one was spared.

What's more, dominating the country does not mean being popular in the international market, not to mention Huaigu is not the boss of the auction house, and has already started planning to enter the international market, isn't it too early?To put it bluntly, aren't you a bit self-righteous, dazzled by the prosperity in front of you?It is complicated to know that the international auction market is not the domestic auction market.

"Why don't you guys talk anymore? I'm going to ask you all to give me advice." Li Dacheng said with a light smile, "Do you think that we do not have the strength for Huaigu? Or do you think that we are not optimistic about our Huaigu? The inside information has been told to you, you won’t still treat me as an outsider, will you?”

"Li, Boss Li, when are you going to officially enter the international market?" Yu Kaidong took a deep breath to calm down his heart. Although he had known the opponent's goal for a long time, he never thought it would be so soon. It seems that it should be a few years later, this step is not ordinary big, not only easy to tear the crotch, but also easy to tear the egg.

"This year!" Li Dacheng said in a positive tone.

"Today, this year?" Yu Kaidong asked again in disbelief, including his partner and ally, not to mention the other people present, all of them never closed their mouths from beginning to end.

"It's this year." Li Dacheng said, "In the future, we will increase the number of auctions every year and refine the market at the same time. There are auctions for the domestic market and auctions for the international market. Moreover, I will go out. , take the auction abroad."

Will the auction be held abroad?Really ambitious.

"Boss Li, um, isn't that a little bit faster?" Yu Kaidong asked, blinking at Li Dacheng. He knew that the other party had such a big matter in his heart, and he would not invite him to participate tonight This tea party, and he didn't expect that the other party would tell such important things in front of so many people, did he really treat these people as a family?
"Soon? I think it's okay." Li Dacheng said with a smile, "If it wasn't for the delay in the construction of Huaigu Building, Huaigu might have already held an auction abroad."

"..."

Everyone was speechless. What they said made people speechless, and they couldn't find an entry point for persuasion.

"Since Boss Li has a plan in mind, we wish Boss Li smooth sailing and a successful start." An editor-in-chief said cheerfully, "Come on, let's meet Boss Li together."

When everyone heard it, well, they really had to give their blessings, because apart from that, they couldn't do anything else.

After drinking this cup, the party didn't last long and ended. They left the teahouse one by one, shaking their heads when they went out, and kept looking at a certain window upstairs and sighing.

Originally, they admired the owner of the Nostalgic Art Auction Company. They thought it was a miracle to develop Nostalgia to its current scale and popularity in just one year.But what Boss Li said at the dinner table just now made their impression and evaluation of the other party drop sharply. When they didn't understand him, they thought he was a courageous person. Self-righteous, because anyone with a little brain would not casually say such things as entering the international market.

As media professionals who are engaged in this industry, they have seen many giants in the original industry, but because they wanted to enter the international market, they not only failed in the end, but also lost the domestic market, resulting in a serious loss of vitality.

In their view, Huaigu has become the next one, and they directly sentenced Huaigu to death in their hearts.

"Dacheng, you're too impulsive." Everyone left, Yu Kaidong closed the door, turned around and said to Li Dacheng who was inspecting, "How can you say so casually about such a big event as entering the international market?"

"Didn't you tell me that the ashram is a family today?" Li Dacheng said while drinking tea, "Besides, they are all members of the media. Tell them in advance, will it also help me create momentum?"

"If it is to promote the auction, they will definitely not be stingy with their own space, and they will definitely leave the front page headlines to you. However, no company has ever succeeded in entering the international market. Do you think they will help you promote it? I dare say that there are more people who are waiting to see your good show than those who wish you well, especially your peers, you have been too high-profile this year." Yu Kaidong said, the most media person, no one can compare He knows the business better.

"Why, don't you like me?" Li Dacheng looked at Yu Kaidong and asked.

"It's not that I'm not optimistic, but that Huaigu has not yet shown any strength to enter the international market." Yu Kaidong pulled a chair to the opposite of Li Dacheng, and said with a serious face, "To enter the international market, you must first have the ability to enter the international market." Artworks that are recognized by the international market, don’t mention to me those antiques that you Huaigu exhibited today, being sold at a high price in China does not mean that they are popular internationally, and I’m talking about those that can make foreigners willing to pay If you buy it for collection, if you take it back and forth and buy it for our own people, then it is tantamount to failure.”

Li Dacheng smiled, "Old Yu, Lao Yu, do you think I don't understand what you said? Based on your understanding of me, if it's not [-]%, do you think I will do it?"

Yu Kaidong was taken aback, thinking about what the other party had done before, he had never missed a shot. "Don't you have any hole cards to show?" Yu Kaidong asked,

Li Dacheng took a sip of tea leisurely, and said with a smile, "What do you think I did when I disappeared for half a year last year?"

"Didn't you travel to Europe?"

"Traveling is only one aspect. The main thing is to inspect the art and antique market there. After half a year, it can be considered quite fruitful..."

"Go abroad to pick up leaks? Then you can't rely on leaks to maintain the auction. How can there be so many leaks in the world?" Yu Kaidong said.

"It's more complicated than you imagined. Anyway, just watch it." Li Dacheng said confidently.

Seeing that Li Dacheng was determined, Yu Kaidong couldn't help but sighed in his heart. Since he was on the other party's pirate ship, he had to ride out the wind and rain together, and he couldn't abandon the ship and flee. Therefore, he looked at Li Dacheng bitterly and asked, " What can I do for you?"

"Propaganda, I have prepared a large-scale report on the three royal gold coins that appeared in the exhibition." After finishing speaking, Li Dacheng's eyes turned cold, and he continued, "Also, help me release the wind." , Just say that Solomon Auction House is too deceitful and lacks sincerity in cooperation, I am very angry, and the consequences will be serious."
