Dad's Pastoral Life
Chapter 175 Tell a True Story
Chapter 175 Tell a True Story
The auction in Hong Kong is Saturday.
Cheng He took the child with him.
As soon as school was over on Friday, I took her out.The air ticket was booked early in the morning, so I was in a hurry and just in time.
Transfer to the provincial capital to fly directly to Hong Kong, arrive in two hours, and then go straight to the booked hotel.
When we got there, the little girl was already asleep.
Early the next morning, Cheng He took a taxi to the auction house.
This was introduced to him by Lao Xia. This auction house is not bad in all aspects. Lao Xia has been here several times, and his friends have also visited several times.
Some auction houses, in order to expand their reputation, will also invite some reporters from small newspapers to support the report.For example, what treasures were sold in this issue, and how many billions were sold, and so on.
Just like a lottery store, they always make a huge poster of who won a lottery in a certain period and hang it in the most conspicuous place to stimulate other people's desire to buy.
The same is true for the auction house, shouting as much as possible to let more people know that there has also been a huge transaction here.
As soon as Cheng He's black iron meteorite was taken out, the eyes of the auction house and reporters were all brightened. It was in good condition.
Usually, a meteorite the size of a fist is not too small, but the one Cheng He brought was as big as a head.
Rare!
Although they had been contacted by phone, internet, etc. before, the auction house had also seen the pictures and had already started promoting them.
But now seeing the real thing with their own eyes for the first time, they are still amazed.
Don't look at some auction houses, which often publish some "a certain famous painting sold for hundreds of millions today", "a pair of ancient jade sold for 8000 million today", which seems to be very prosperous, but it is not.
Assuming that what he advertised is true, even if there is such a huge transaction price one day occasionally, it will never be every day.
Therefore, most of the time, they are small and relatively ordinary auction transactions.
Cheng He's meteorite also brought a composition appraisal certificate, and the price clearly marked on it would be expensive, let alone the auction price.
And look at the weight, not light.Can be worth a good price.
Auctions are based on commissions to make money, of course they like to see good things.
The newspaper reporters who have cooperated with them for a long time are also familiar with the industry and know how to report highlights.
The beautiful female reporter asked Cheng He some questions professionally, such as where the meteorite came from, what is the expected psychological value, whether it is estimated that the deal can be made today, and the story behind it, etc.
She estimated that if today's meteorite can be sold, it will be a good price.Then she will have articles to write.
Cheng He heard from Lao Xia that many people who come to auction things like to tell a mysterious and mysterious story to the items they bring.
For example, when selling a chamber pot, tell me who used the chamber pot, and what kind of story was there at that time?What happened next?Has it fallen into the hands of so and so?
These stories don't have to be true, anyway, it just needs to sound bluffing, and it seems that the treasures have a history.
In fact, Lao Xia is a little worried for Cheng He. Treasures can make up stories, but how can meteorites be made up?
That some alien once used this meteorite as a chamber pot?
The female reporter smiled and asked Cheng He: "Mr. Cheng, what is your estimate for this meteorite? It seems that the transaction price should not be low."
Cheng He replied: "The net weight of my meteorite is more than 12 kilograms. The price should be okay, right?"
The female reporter echoed and said: "The highest transaction price in the United States in the meteorite collection industry is 8996 US dollars per gram. How much do you think you can get for a gram today?"
Cheng He smiled: "Hahaha...my one can probably sell for half of the highest price."
The female reporter immediately used her brain, mentally calculated for a while, and immediately screamed exaggeratedly: "My God, Mr. Cheng, if it is really as you said, it weighs more than 12 kilograms, and the transaction price is more than 1 million!"
Of course, this is just a joke, not necessarily true.
The transaction price of a meteorite has a lot to do with its composition.If the ingredients are ordinary and have no value at all, the transaction price may not be high.
And if it contains extremely rare ingredients, the price is very high.
Just like the sale of the highest priced meteorite in the United States, it must be because it contains very rare meteorites that are of great value in scientific research.
In addition, it also has a lot to do with buyers.
If the buyer feels that the stone is very valuable and worth investing in, he will be willing to increase the price.
This is the charm of the auction house.
The female reporter asked again with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, I'm very curious. If the meteorite can meet your wishes and make a deal today, what will you do with the money? This is not a small sum."
She suddenly remembered, was there a popular saying last year, first complete a small goal and earn him [-] million?
If the meteorite can be sold today, wouldn't this Mr. Cheng complete a small goal?
Cheng He replied: "How to use this money? I may use it for an international lawsuit."
He told the female reporter that he was from a place in the Mainland called Taohua Village.
A few months ago, a certain kind of folk art was brought to Hong Kong by an old artist and participated in the art fair. It received great attention in the exhibition area and was favored by the Swedish royal family.
Because of this wonderful start, the bamboo weaving art of Taohua Village began to re-enter the public's vision, and more and more people began to pay attention to the bamboo weaving of Taohua Village.
At present, online stores in the mainland have entered the sales track, and Taohua Village is also slowly exploring foreign markets.
Just when everything was proceeding step by step and in small steps, a Korean stole their technology and falsely claimed that they were the place of origin, so as to receive international orders to make money.
Cheng He's tone was very firm, no matter how much money was spent on this international lawsuit, he would continue to fight it!
Lao Xia said that the treasure has to make up a story, which can increase the sense of history and gold content of the treasure.
Meteorites cannot make up stories, they can only win by their composition and uniqueness.
Therefore, Cheng He chose to tell the truth.
People have feelings, so he doesn't believe that what he said can't impress some people.If their own things are said to belong to others, they can remain indifferent.
He only hopes that the final transaction price can be higher and higher.
It is said that litigation in the United States is expensive, but he does not know how much this international lawsuit will cost.
All he knew was that he wanted to make a big fuss about this matter, stir up the situation, and let everyone in the world know about it.
Therefore, he has to prepare a lot of money.
The female reporter was obviously impressed by him.
She blinked and asked incredulously, "Mr. Cheng, is what you said true?"
She never thought it would be like this.Ordinary people sell their treasures for a high price, or say they want to invest, or buy a yacht, or pay off the mortgage, and pay the rest slowly.
It was the first time she heard that she sold the treasure to file an international lawsuit.
If what he said was true, then this man would be suing for the bamboo weaving in Taohua Village, as if it was not his personal business.
The biggest key is-
The Koreans have set their sights on our country again!
It used to be said that Confucius belonged to them, the Dragon Boat Festival belonged to them, and Qu Yuan belonged to them... Now it is said that this belongs to them...
This lawsuit should be fought!
Just to make them make a fool of themselves internationally!
The female reporter suddenly felt great respect, and said excitedly: "Mr. Cheng, you are really a righteous man, I admire you! I hope you can get a good price today, and I also wish your lawsuit to win! I support you!"
The staff of the auction house also said: "Mr. Cheng, I really didn't expect you to have such an original intention. Why didn't you tell us the matter before? If this is the case, we can also cooperate with the publicity!"
The auction house obviously didn't expect that a meteorite would have such a story.
They are also people who can do things. Compared with some mysterious and mysterious stories, such real things are more touching!
When the master of ceremonies is on stage for a while, it is necessary to tell this matter.
Cheng He smiled and said nothing.
He also knew that if these real reasons were told earlier, the auction house here could indeed be used for publicity.Let those who are willing to participate in the auction know this matter in advance to increase their desire to buy, or the psychological price.
However, he did not directly sue the South Korean side before, why?
Because he has been brewing, waiting, waiting for things to further ferment.
Spreading the news of the lawsuit earlier will only alert those people, and will not cause the greatest consequences.
Now, the matter has reached the final step, and it doesn't hurt to say it.
On the other side of the United States, the Chinese-American lawyer has prepared everything.
These are just things that happened behind the scenes, while in front of the stage, the auction of some items was operating as usual.
Everyone knows that the meteorite to be auctioned today will be extraordinary in the end.
