Chapter 669

"It seems that the things we auctioned this time are really eye-catching!"

Lu Yao nodded her head, she knew that Fang Ming's words definitely hit the nail on the head.

There is no love or hatred for no reason in this world. There is only one reason why these regular customers of the auction are so proactive, and that is that the items in this auction are really good!These old foxes were so tempted that they couldn't sit still.

On the contrary, if the items in this auction are so ordinary that these people don't like them, they definitely won't even look straight at them.

Strength is respected, this saying is used in auctions, that is to say, if the auctioned things are good things, then someone will definitely come.

"Yes, that's right. We have 50 people scheduled to participate in the auction this time, but now it seems that this is far from enough."

At this moment, Lu Yao felt pain and happiness.

Theoretically speaking, the more people who come to participate in the auction, the better it is.Moreover, generally speaking, twenty to thirty people participating in an auction is quite good, and there may be about five or six people who will pay for things in the end.

Because the auction items this time are really good, that's why Lu Yao reserved so many places, and now it's arranged for this reason, but what she didn't expect was that because the momentum has been greatly created, she called to ask to participate in this time There are more and more people in the auction, and soon it has broken through [-]. This matter has caused her a lot of headaches, and she hasn't decided how to solve it until now.

"Ah? There is no such thing yet? Then how to solve it? There are too many people, so it won't work, right?"

Lu Yao nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. Generally speaking, the number of people or the scale of an auction should be controlled at [-] to [-]. If there are too many, it's just for watching."

Fang Ming didn't know much about the auction business, and when he heard Lu Yao's words, his brows immediately frowned.

"Then let's control the number of people. I don't want hundreds of people to come. Although it looks like a large scale and a shocking scene, it doesn't make any sense at all. What's the point of most of them being spectators? And If there are too many people, it is completely unnecessary to make the whole venue look like a vegetable market. More importantly, if so many people come to participate, it will also make those who really pay money feel that our grade is too high. It’s low, and that’s not a good thing.”

How could Lu Yao not understand this truth, but she couldn't make up her mind before. You must know that the fifty or so people who decided to come to participate in the auction were all those who wanted to be invited at the auction, so she It was only after hesitating that I felt that no matter which one I rejected, it would be a big loss.

At this time, under Fang Ming's reminder, she knew that Fang Ming's choice was correct.

"Okay, it's just that it's a pity that it's like this."

Fang Ming laughed, he naturally understood Lu Yao's feeling at this moment.

"It's really a pity. After all, these people are very likely to pay. But, as the saying goes, we must stop and suffer from it. This is something we must do."

"Moreover, there is another very important reason, this is actually a good opportunity for us, that is to say, to take advantage of such an opportunity to improve the grade of our auction, that is to say, to borrow such a Chances are we can give the impression that our auctions are for high-end clients.”

In Fang Ming's view, this is indeed a rare opportunity.

The opportunity to form a brand effect is not always there, because it is often an impression of people. This time the opportunity is good, and the quality of the auction items is good enough. Maybe you can get twice the result with half the effort, why should you let go of such an opportunity?
Lu Yao is a smart person. As soon as Fang Ming said it, she understood: "I didn't think about it in this direction before. It is indeed a very good opportunity. In this way, I don't think there will be fifty people. I plan to put This number is limited to twenty people."

"Okay, no problem. You can handle specific matters by yourself. After all, I'm not an expert in this area."

How to control the number of people to twenty, he believes that Lu Yao has a way - in fact, if Lu Yao can't even handle this, it can only mean that she is not suitable for this position at all.That being the case, there is really no need for me to intervene in specific matters.

Lu Yao nodded and didn't talk about this matter again. After the general principles are settled, the specific operation is her own business, which she understands very well.

"However, I think our auction company still needs to carry out another auction business."

Fang Ming's mind was spinning quickly, and he immediately thought of another matter. In fact, he had already forgotten whether he had discussed this matter before, but he felt that he should remind him at this time.

"You said."

Lu Yao immediately became serious. When it comes to the specific operation of the auction, she is of course confident that Fang Ming is not as good as her and many people are not as good as her, but when it comes to business ideas, Fang Ming is probably better than herself. Too powerful.

The Dongcheng Street in front of me can definitely be said to be Fang Ming's idea alone, and it has already been developed to this level, which is a clear proof.

"It's like this. Since we position the auction as high-end, it's not enough just to do this. The main reason is that high-end auction items are something that can be encountered but not sought after."

Fang Ming frowned slightly. This was a huge bottleneck restricting the development of an auction company, especially in the current social environment.

Everyone is not a fool, and they can research some good things, and they are all waiting for the price to rise. After all, everyone does not lack this money to live, right?So there is no rush to make a move.

In this way, it is conceivable that it is impossible to continuously obtain good auction items, and if there is no way to solve this problem, the auction company is very likely to face the situation of insufficient form, and only conduct auctions in a year. There is absolutely no way to support the reputation of an auction company for an auction that is held only once every two or three years.

There are many auction companies in the world now, even in the field of art auctions, but there are not many that are really remembered by people, and this is the reason.

There is no problem with Lu Yao hosting the auction company's auction on Dongcheng Street this time - it will definitely be a hit, but what next?Even if it is once or ten times, it can always maintain a high-quality auction item.

After ten times, after twenty times?
Can it still be done and maintained?

Fang Ming is a master at picking up leaks, but he doesn't dare to make such a guarantee, and it is impossible for him to "raise" an auction company with his own leak-picking method.

Lu Yao also frowned slightly, forming a small pimple.

She had actually thought about the problem Fang Ming mentioned before, and she had already encountered this problem when she was working in other auction companies, but there was no way to solve this problem at all.As far as she knows, other auction companies, even the most famous auction company in the world, have actually faced this problem in recent years.

As for the solution, often it can only be to send more people to search all over the world, plus paying a huge purchase price.

better way?
That doesn't exist.

"This is indeed a problem, and it is a common and unsolvable problem that all auction companies face. Fang Ming, could it be...you have thought of a solution?"

Lu Yao's eyes lit up. If Fang Ming really thought of a solution, it would definitely be great news. Moreover, if the solution works, she is absolutely confident in making the auction company a world-class one!

However, at the same time, her eyes were full of doubts. This problem is worldwide. Other auction companies that have been in business for many years cannot solve it. Can Fang Ming think of a solution?
Fang Ming noticed the puzzled look in Lu Yao's eyes, and he didn't care, but said the method he thought of: "Actually, this method can only be realized here, I remember it was discussed before? "

Patting himself on the head, Fang Ming realized that he seemed to have mentioned this question before, but his memory was not very clear, so he ignored it now and continued: "What is Dongcheng Street here for? We are here to sell Antiques, in addition to retailing, have the possibility of becoming a wholesale base for antiques. In this case, why don’t you think about it? For example, we can conduct a large number of antique auctions, that is to say, packaging For example, how about hundreds of antiques being auctioned together?"

Lu Yao thought for a while, her eyes widened immediately, Fang Ming's idea was really good.

In the antique industry, the most exciting thing is "gambling". Auctioning an ordinary person's antique is not very attractive, and it is not suitable for the auction company to go in the high-end direction. However, if it is a hundred antiques Auctioned together, even if each antique may be worth tens of thousands, but adding it up is a big deal.

Not to mention that such a large number of antiques are auctioned together, and the concept of "leakage" can be added: out of 100 antiques, as long as there is one good thing, it will be amazing!

Fang Ming's proposal definitely captured people's psychology, and as he said, this approach may not be possible in other places, but in Dongcheng Street, relying on the unique conditions here, to do Up to this point there is no problem at all!

This is a good way to be tall!
