Chapter 249 Press Conference
The weather is very hot, and no one is willing to go out in such a hot day except for business, but the hall of the Antique Exhibition Hall of Ningdong City Cultural Festival is full of people, some of whom are antique lovers who come here to visit, but There are also many journalists with long guns and short guns such as cameras.

These people are all waiting, waiting for the press conference that will start soon.Of course the news of the invitation to the press conference was received, but the fans got the news from another channel.

"Where did you hear the news? Is it Guxuanzhai?"

"That's right. I've heard that many people went to Guxuanzhai with the antiques they bought that day to deal with Fang Ming. Who knows that Fang Ming is not afraid at all. He also said that if someone can provide an expert appraisal The money will be refunded immediately, and 10% of the compensation will be compensated, but no one can provide evidence in this regard.”

"This is unreasonable trouble! How can antiques be true or false? You have to see clearly when you buy it!"

"Heh, in fact, this was deliberately instigated by a villain, who said that Guxuanzhai was going to run away, but he didn't think he was running away at all, but just moved to Dongcheng Street. In the end, that Fang Ming also said that the shop would not change hands Yes, not short of that money, quite arrogant!"

"He's definitely not short of money. The former Jade King, tsk tsk, made a fortune just from that piece of money!"

"Indeed, so those who bought antiques from Guxuanzhai really have no brains. This Fang Ming is definitely a master. How can such a person sell fake antiques? And that Zhou Yafang is also in the small antiques People who have been on the street for many years don’t need to do such a thing.”

"It's really strange to say this, how could there be such rumors."

"What's so strange? Some people are jealous. Guxuanzhai's business is good."

"But having said that, the location of Dongcheng Street is much better than that of Little Antique Street. If it can be built with a lot of money, it will definitely be a great thing for antique lovers like us. It will have one more place to go shopping!"

"You're not wrong at all. The layout of the Small Antique Street is still a bit small."

……

Fang Ming wore light-colored casual clothes and sunglasses to mix in the crowd. Although he was eye-catching, no one thought that he was Fang Ming!
Listening to the discussion in the crowd, he couldn't help laughing.Although it is still unclear who did it, the people's eyes are definitely discerning, and they can tell what happened at a glance.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Fang Ming stopped playing the trick of "private visit with micro-service" and squeezed through the crowd to walk in.

The press conference was arranged temporarily, and a table was set up in the hall of the exhibition hall, with tables and chairs and the like. Naturally, there would be a small lounge at the back.

Fang Ming was stunned as soon as he entered, because he saw a person he never expected to see—Wan Hua.

Sikong Zhe is the initiator of this investment, so it is not surprising that he appeared at this press conference.

Liu Hanyan is the owner of more than 100 shops on Tongshi Street. It is normal for her to appear in this press conference.

It is not surprising that Qian Fang, Zheng Bai, Wu Ze and others appeared, but Wanhua's appearance here is a bit intriguing.

"Heh, Fang Ming, did you expect me to appear here?"

Seeing Fang Ming's surprised expression, Wan Hua laughed.

"Ha! Mayor, I really didn't expect you to come."

Fang Ming rubbed his nose, Wanhua is the mayor of a city, and it is not an exaggeration to take care of everything. Although the investment this time is not small, it is not enough to "trouble" him in theory.

"sit down."

Wanhua pointed to the seat beside him, then pointed to Liu Hanyan and said, "Hanyan is my niece, and I will be in charge of the cultural festival this time. Your investment in the antique industry is very good this time. The amount is not small, I have seen your investment plan, it is very unique, so I came here because I was free."

Looking at Liu Hanyan, Fang Ming knew that she was a big deal, but he didn't expect to have such a relationship with Wanhua.

"Ha! It's great that you can come, mayor!"

Being able to appear at today's press conference with Wanhua's status immediately means that this investment project is hosted by him. When others want to make trouble, they have to consider Wanhua's attitude. Fang Ming naturally understands this: With Wanhua showing his face, the project on Dongcheng Street will never be affected by external forces!

"Yes, Mayor, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend our press conference."

The appearance of Wanhua made Si Kongzhe both surprised and delighted. What surprised him was that he did not expect Wanhua to come. What made him happy was that the appearance of Wanhua made the entire investment project avoid policy problems. It can be said that as long as he does not make mistakes, No one can make trouble for themselves, which is very important for a project with an investment of hundreds of millions!

Man-made obstacles are the biggest obstacles. Sikong Zhe, who has been in the business world for many years, naturally understands this truth.

"Mr. Sikong, you are also a big entrepreneur in our Ningdong City. It is very good that you can participate in this investment. Besides, Mr. Qian and Mr. Zheng are all veterans in the antique industry. I believe you It must be able to do a good job.”

"Thank you mayor for your concern! We will definitely work hard!"

Wanhua is a lover of antiques, and he is definitely a master in antiques. Fang Ming and the others are all interested in collecting antiques, so they naturally have common topics, so the atmosphere of chatting becomes more and more lively. It came to an end when Ding Hao walked in lightly.

"Mayor, it's almost time."

Wan Hua nodded and said, "Okay, then let's go out."

Sikongzhe quickly stood up and took the first step, and then turned his body slightly to lead Wanhua to go out - other than him, the scene is really not suitable for such a thing.

"Let's go."

When Liu Hanyan walked to Fang Ming's side, he nodded slightly to him, signaling him to walk in front of him.

This is not the time to be polite, Fang Ming nodded, followed Wan Hua and walked out, followed by Qian Fang and others.

After going out, Fang Ming found that the scene quickly quieted down, but then there was a slight discussion. Most of these discussions came from the reporters on the scene. They are all people who are used to running the news. Naturally, they know the meaning of Wanhua's presence here. What is it, but before they received the news, they did not say that Wanhua would attend.

"Everyone, the main content of our press conference today is to announce one thing. The three streets of Dongcheng Street, Tongshi Street, and Huaxi Street will be built into the largest antique market in the country, integrating antique collection, trading, and sightseeing. The investment amount is [-] million yuan, and it will be completed within two years; the later stage investment is [-] million yuan, and it will be completed within five years..."

Sitting next to Wanhua, Fang Ming couldn't help being startled when he heard the string of numbers reported by Sikong Zhe, thinking that it was really a hypothesis.

But it's not surprising if you think about it, if it's still the original investment amount, you can't explain it at all. Of course, Fang Ming believes that Sikong Zhe will be able to do it if he dares to say this. It can also be done, and it is not a problem at all for a figure who can command the wind and rain in the securities market to get hundreds of millions.

"Our investment project has received strong support from the municipal government. Mayor Wan also came to today's press conference. Next, we invite Mayor Wan to say a few words for us."

Sikongzhe didn't make a long speech, and after a brief introduction, he immediately handed over the microphone to Wanhua.

"Everyone, I think that Mr. Sikongzhe will explain the detailed plan later. What I want to say is that this investment project is very meaningful... I believe that in the next two to three years, Dongcheng Street will be the center. The antique circle will definitely form its own characteristics and become a new business card of the entire Ningdong City!"

Wan Hua's speech was not long, and he left the press conference before it was over. When he left, he signaled Fang Ming to go with him.

After returning to the lounge, Wan Hua waved his hand at Ding Hao. Ding Hao nodded slightly, then retreated and gently closed the door of the lounge.

"Sit down, don't be so cautious."

Fang Ming sat down on the sofa opposite Wanhua, smiled and said, "Mayor, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"

Wanhua frowned suddenly, and said, "Fang Ming, what happened to what I told you last time?"

The last time we met, Wanhua asked Fang Ming to find an interesting antique, which was to be given to an old man, and this is exactly what we are talking about now.

Fang Ming scratched his hair, and said embarrassedly: "Hey, mayor, there is really no clue about this matter. The only thing I have gained recently is betting on stones, and I got a big emerald. What do you think of this thing? How about I send this emerald to you?"

Seeing Fang Ming like this, Wan Hua couldn't help laughing and cursing, saying, "What do I want this thing for? If I send this thing to the old leader, I will definitely get spanked."

"Interesting antiques, this requirement is too high, it is not easy to find."

Fang Ming shook his head. It might be easier for Wanhua to specify an antique. The three words "interesting" are really too general.

"Hurry up, I'll need it soon."

Wanhua himself is also an antique player, so he naturally understands that his request is not so easy to achieve.

"However... I suddenly have an idea, I don't know if it will work."

Wan Hua's eyes lit up at Fang Ming's words, and he immediately said, "Let's listen."

"It still lands on the emerald."

Fang Ming paused for a while, sorted out the thoughts that just came to him, and continued: "I plan to sell the jade that has risen in bets, and it is estimated that it will be sold after being divided. I wonder if I can keep one of them and invite a master Carved into objects as gifts?"

"That's a good idea."

Wanhua thought about it for a while and nodded lightly, "However, this can only be a choice under unavoidable circumstances, or it can only be used as a second choice, a substitute plan."

"Yes, I know."

Fang Ming knew that Wanhua didn't want to give him something too expensive as a gift, "Leave this to me. When I turn around, I'll find someone with good craftsman to see if I can make something out of emerald. "

"Ok."

Wanhua stood up and said, "I'm going first, call me when you have any news."
