Chapter Seventy-Nine: Expectation
The meeting on the first day of the jade carving competition talked about the development of some industries and the problems encountered, and there were some media tracking reports on the scene.
This is a jade carving competition that is only held once a year, and people in the jade circle from all over the country will gather here, and it is sponsored by the Huabao Association.
After the death of the meeting, the presidents and directors of the jade associations in various places must be present at the meeting, although Wang Yun has just joined the jade association, but after all, he has the title of director, so he must also follow in.
Because of the large number of people, the meeting lasted for a few hours before it ended, and everyone began to yawn when the meeting ended.
Coming out of the venue, Wang Yun faintly felt that there was a gaze that had been staring at him, and even had a few malices.
He looked back around, and finally spotted a familiar figure in the crowd.
Didn't you meet Liu Jie on Grandpa Feng Yunan's birthday? I didn't expect to meet him here.
Then Wang Yun found that Liu Jie was walking with a group of people from the Jade Association, and it could be seen from the signs hanging around the necks of those Jade Association members that they seemed to be people from the Pingzhou Jade Association over Jiangnan.
Before coming, Wang Yun also learned about some jade carving competitions in previous years on the Internet, and it seems that Pingzhou performed very well in last year's jade carving competition.
Since Liu Jie is from Pingzhou, I am afraid that he will unite with those over there against him or this Yunshan Jade Association.
After all, last time at Feng Lao's birthday banquet, Wang Yun pointed out in front of so many people that the shareholder object he gave to Feng Lao was fake, and as far as he was concerned, he would definitely seek revenge on himself.
"What's the matter, let's go!" Fang Mu gently patted Wang Yun on the shoulder after seeing him in a daze.
Wang Yun came back to his senses at this time, and then quickly followed them.
The place where today's meeting is held is only for the first day of the meeting, and there is some propaganda for some purposes.
Tomorrow's jade carving competition will be held in the square outside.
"You see that the cloth over there is covered with an engraving machine, and then the carvers will be carving in the square. Fang Mu pointed to a square not far in front of him and said to Wang Yun.
In this kind of large-scale competition, all possible cheating must be eliminated to ensure that the results of the game are fair and just.
After all, so many masters have been invited, as well as some elders of the Huabao Association, celebrities from the Jade Association, so many people are here, if there is cheating, it will be a big game.
"Brother Fang, what's the itinerary after the game?" Wang Yun asked.
After they talked about the carving competition last night, they went to other places, and they didn't talk about the itinerary for the next two days.
"In fact, the main event is after the competition, because at this time, each jade association will compare the best jade of its own association, and through the opinions of the judges, the winner with the highest price, I am naturally ready. ”
The best jade? Wang Yun suddenly touched the pendant on his neck with his hand, although it was the size of a finger, but after all, it was glass imperial green, or from the hand of Zhu Mingqiang, a master carver in Kyoto, and the value must not be underestimated, and he believed that his thing must be better than the thing brought by Fang Mu.
It's even possible to be better than what other jade guilds have brought.
"For this jade competition, I specially invited a jade carver in Jiangnan to make a complete set of jewelry from the piece of gold silk jadeite I bought from you, which is estimated to be worth at least eight million. Fang Mu said with a smile.
Wang Yun remembered that this was still when he was in Qingzhou, and Wang Fei had to bet with himself, so he cut out a piece of gold silk jadeite from a piece of scrap food.
In the end, Fang Mu bought the jade material for four million.
Although the golden silk species is also regarded as a mid-to-high-end jadeite, the appreciation space is average, not as good as the hibiscus species, otherwise, the four million jade materials, the things made are definitely not only so much money.
In fact, Wang Yun bought a batch of wool in Qingzhou and still had a piece of hibiscus seed, but the hibiscus seed was not very big and could not make a whole set of things, so the price was naturally not as good as a complete set of gold silk seeds.
At this time, Ji Ning added on the side, "There are a total of three things that can be taken out in the jade competition, and they will be ranked according to the total price at that time." ”
For this point, Wang Yun figured out what was going on.
Now there are low-grade jadeite in the jade industry everywhere, but high-end and good goods are in short supply.
In many places, you don't necessarily come across a piece of ice in a year, so even if there is a good product, everyone will not show it all at once.
Everyone is hiding it, if the situation is good, one piece can win, then the rest will be kept for next year, if the situation is found to be wrong, then take another piece out.
Since this is the case, Wang Yun feels that he doesn't need to worry, if Fang Mu's things can work, he doesn't need to take out this pendant.
Everyone walked towards the front as they spoke, there was a jade cultural square in front, and now a lot of things have been laid out.
After tomorrow's carving contest is over, everyone will come here to gamble on stones.
In fact, gambling stones is the purpose of most people who come here, and the previous game is a relief for everyone to be entertained and appreciated.
What everyone wants to participate in the most is actually gambling stones.
Six or seven stonecutters have already been set up in the square, and it will definitely be a place for people to watch.
"The gambling stone side also has to be well prepared, and this year, our Yunshan Jade Association can't count down in this link. When Fang Mu said this, his eyes kept staring at Wang Yun.
Wang Yun was a little furious by his expectant eyes, it seemed that Fang Mu really regarded himself as a lucky general, it seemed that he really had to play hard when the time came.
"There are some small rules for gambling stones here, that is, the people of the Jade Association must gamble first, although it is an internal gamble, it is also a report card, and then anyone can participate in the outside degree, but the things that are gambled out must be all counted in the association first, if we don't want it, we can sell it to outsiders. Ji Ning explained a little beside Wang Yun.
Wang Yun became interested when he heard the gambling stone, he didn't care much about who he sold it to or something, anyway, no matter who he sold it to, the money was taken by the person who gambled it, and the rest didn't matter.
There must be other people in the Huayun company who have also come here, so they will contact them when the time comes, and then they will purchase some wool and ship them back together, which is more conservative.
After all, this is an annual jade event in the country, and those jade merchants must have come here with their heads squeezed, as long as he thought that the whole square would be full of jade gambling materials at that time, Wang Yun was excited.
"Hehe, I'm really like a fool, and I'm leaving. Feng Yunan saw Wang Yun's wide eyes, laughed at him, and called him away.
Only then did Wang Yun realize that he was too engrossed, and hurriedly followed the large army in front.
