Chapter 102 Jointly Banned
"How do you do things? Haven't heard any news from Zhongzheng until now?"

Zhou Jianyun was upset, and reluctantly let his subordinates leave, leaning on the boss chair in a daze.

"Why are you so angry, brother? Who made you angry?"

Zhou Jianyun asked Kuang Guoqiang to sit down and have a tea ceremony: "It's not that the subordinates are useless, and they can't even find out any news for several days! There are still a few days before the preview. What's the situation with Zhongzheng?"

Kuang Guoqiang smiled and said, "Don't worry, we are still afraid of them when we join forces? What do you think of these collections?"

After speaking, he took out seven or eight collections from the bag, and Zhou Jianyun's eyes lit up, and he praised: "They are all high-quality goods, as expected of my brother, I have such a treasure in my hand."

"You can rest assured now? With my stuff and the treasures you collected, Xilin will definitely have no problem in the next Qingwan Yagong special! Don't worry about Wu Tianyuan's blockade of news, it will be in vain!"

"Last time, he also won a round because of the emperor's heavy weapon, but we Xilin is not considered a loser. The turnover of celebrity letters is also good, which can be regarded as a tie."

Zhou Jianyun comforted himself: "I can't give that kid any chance this time. I have already contacted all the customers I have good relationships with. No matter what happens to Zhongzheng, I just won't participate!"

Kuang Guoqiang slapped his thigh and laughed, "Heroes see the same thing! I was just about to tell you about this. Wu Tianyuan can't be underestimated. Didn't you hear that he just spent [-] million to take pictures of Wu Hufan's residence in Fuchun Mountain! Through the introduction of Hu Jianmin Hook up with that girl Hu Yan, once Baoli and Zhongzheng join forces, it will be difficult for you and me in the future."

"There is such a thing?" Zhou Jianyun was startled. Wu Tianyuan cannot be underestimated. He is young and has a lot of connections. This must be curbed.

"The Kuang family also informed old friends and senior collectors through their connections that if they don't go to praise Chung Cheng's field, even if they have any important treasures, it will be in vain. No one bids, what's the point?"

Zhou Jianyun said with satisfaction: "This time, the Kuang family and Xilin teamed up to ban Wu Tianyuan, which can be regarded as giving him face and letting that kid know what is called the bottom line!"

"Brother Bai?"

Wu Tianyuan suddenly received a call from Bai Hua, his expression became heavy after listening for a while, and he hung up the phone after thanking her.

"What? The Kuang family and Xilin jointly banned us?"

Sun Yuyao turned pale with shock, a little at a loss, Xilin is a good opponent, why even the Kuang family has to deal with Zhongzheng?

"Don't worry, listen to Tianyuan!"

Wu Tianyuan looked at Sun Zhongzheng and said, "Bai Hua just informed me that she had received rumors that Kuang Guoqiang and Zhou Jianyun had spread rumors, saying that they wanted to draw a line with Zhongzheng! Many collectors and old customers were forced not to come to praise us, Bai Hua Remind us to pay attention."

"The little white man has a deep relationship. If he specifically reminds you, it means the problem is already serious!"

Sun Zhongzheng said with some headaches: "Actually, this is also an unspoken rule in the circle. In the past, when colleagues who violated the industry rules appeared, everyone would block them together. This is also a method in the industry. I didn't expect Xilin and Kuang to be so ruthless. They must tear their faces apart." ?”

"What are you afraid of? We have heavy weapons in our hands, and they are on display just like last time. I don't believe they can cover the sky with one hand!"

Liu Meizi was indignant, she had absolute confidence in Wu Tianyuan, this difficulty was nothing.

"You can't say that!" Wu Tianyuan said solemnly: "Last time, Zhou Jianyun underestimated the enemy, and we had a chance to fight back. This time he came prepared, and with Kuang Guoqiang's backing support, the two major auction houses should not be underestimated. After all Zhongzheng has just arrived and has not many contacts, old collectors will definitely choose them, and will not stand up to support us.”

"There are also some thresholds for this auction. Although they are miscellaneous items in the study, they are all important items. Even if ordinary collectors like it, they will not be able to take them, and they will not take the risk of offending Xilin and Kuang to participate in our auction. meeting."

Everyone fell silent, and Wu Tianyuan's analysis hit the nail on the head. To put it bluntly, they took advantage of the fact that Zhongzheng was still fledgling and had yet to gain a foothold.I have to say that although this trick is not authentic, it is very useful.

"Then we just sit and wait? Wait for them to see a joke?"

Wu Tianyuan sneered and said: "Impossible! They underestimate our Zhongzheng too much. What does it matter if there are too many people? Even if only a few people come, the auction can still go on as usual!"

Sun Zhongzheng also understood something, and said with a smile: "You want to hold a VIP session with the highest threshold?"

Sun Yuyao also suddenly realized: "That's right, since we have heavy weapons in our hands, ordinary people can't afford them, so we simply raise the threshold and only select the most capable people to participate in the auction. One is to lock in the best quality customer base and develop contacts; Second, avoid Zhou Jianyun's conspiracy, so he can't do anything!"

Several people hurriedly discussed the countermeasures and tapped the existing customer base, especially Sun Zhongzheng, who was a veteran. For this collection, inviting the most promising customers, even if there were only a few people, could create a miracle.

"Brother Hu? Do you like it?"

Wu Tianyuan looked at Hu Jianmin with a cheap smile, he held the Ziyun inkstone obsessively, and couldn't put it down.

"Nonsense! I am obsessed with calligraphy, do you think I like inkstones or not?"

Hu Jianmin stared, since he got to know this kid, he spent more and more money, and a heavy weapon appeared every three days, and he just returned the emperor's calligraphy.Now there are so many top-quality study rooms, especially Ji Xiaolan's inkstone and Qianlong's Longxiang ink, which are simply the best match for calligraphy.

"No need to talk nonsense, I will definitely participate in your auction!"

Hu Jianmin said helplessly: "But I can't introduce customers to you this time, and I can't increase my competitors in business! Unless you are willing to make a private deal, I choose three inkstones and Longxiang ink, how about it?"

Wu Tianyuan shook his head and said: "That won't work, either you pack everything, or you can participate in the auction, there is no third way!"

"Go! Go! Go!"

Hu Jianmin was very irritable, seeing Wu Tianyuan's expression of being determined by himself, he had no choice but to speak.

"You guys really have to fight a tough battle this time. Since Xilin and Kuang's teamed up to block Zhongzheng, it's a rhythm of tearing each other's faces and fighting endlessly."

Elder Song said worriedly: "One of their two families is a local snake in the capital, with deep connections. The other is a South Crossing Dragon, a time-honored brand with decades of history. This time, the Zhongzheng army is in danger, and it is also a helpless move."

"That's right. I'm sure I'm supporting you and Zhongzheng. They're both from the Central Plains, joining hands to fight against foreign enemies. But I can't play the entire show by myself. Even if I pack everything, money is a trivial matter, and reputation is not good!"

"Let me analyze it for you. Bai Hua is a professional agent. For the benefit of Wanda, he definitely can't support you openly. It is the greatest help to send you a letter in advance. The Evergrande person doesn't like Wen. Fang, Lao Guo can't make a move. Not to mention Zhai Jianmin, he is an old fritter, absolutely neutral, and no one can offend."

Hu Jianmin helped Wu Tianyuan count people with his fingers, and finally concluded: "Now you basically don't have any high-quality customers around you, which is actually normal. Auction houses only rely on the auction items, which are heavy and popular. Otherwise, no matter how many people , It’s useless to just watch the fun.”

Elder Song also helped to think of a way: "I can ask you here, but I dare not say whether you will come or not. Even if Mr. Ma helps find someone, it depends on whether they are willing to pay? By the way, Taiwan and Hong Kong There are a few big households who specialize in collecting books, such as Huang Xuanlong from Jiansong Pavilion, he..."

"There's not enough time, and besides, I have nothing to do with them, and it will take me a month to get online."

It's not that Wu Tianyuan didn't think about it. Many of the real big collectors are in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, but they generally don't come to China to participate in auctions.

"Mr. Sun has sent out several invitation letters, doing his best to obey the destiny. Don't we have Jianye, a local tyrant, to guarantee the bottom line?"

Wu Tianyuan joked lightly, and Hu Jianmin laughed and cursed, he didn't mind packing these treasures, it was rare to see them, if it didn't work out in the end, he might just accept them all.
