Volume 2: Chapter 696 of Qingyang University: Two pieces of five free shipping, one lump

Next chapter

(Well, there's going to be a small change, and I'll refresh it in about five minutes.) ）

When he heard the "two pieces of five-carat free shipping" on Taobao, Lu Xingcheng felt a little ridiculous, and then there was an inexplicable suddenness.

No wonder...... This is what Mr. Nan did.

But at the same time, he was a little frightened, Mr. Nan really did it? Even a soldier like Lu Xingcheng, who is not very sensitive to diamonds and does not know much about them, also knows that diamonds are the most precious and rare gems on the planet.

After decades and hundreds of years of continuous advertising brainwashing, this can be said to be the most successful case in the history of marketing, the best monopoly market of "artificial scarcity", is finally going to be broken?

"What two pieces of 51 grams free shipping, that's all deception, it's all fake, not diamonds!" The people in the jewelry store are obviously not very willing to admit this, "man-made diamonds have long been rare, natural diamonds are the best diamonds, and man-made diamonds are just carbon ......"

The people in the jewelry store were hoarse and boasted that their diamonds were pure: "You see, our diamonds have certificates, and they are truly valuable and retain their value, not the kind of glass beads that are two pieces of five and one ......."

"Since your diamonds are so valuable, why don't you give us a refund? You don't have anything to lose anyway, do you?"

"That'...... The thing can't be said that our gems, once sold, are non-refundable......"

"I've never seen you sell things like this!" As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused dissatisfaction among the customers, and the two sides pushed and shoved, almost breaking out into a conflict.

An onlooker stretched out his hand and grabbed a polite-looking young man among the customers, and asked him, "Young man, what you just said is true? What is this thing for two dollars and five free shipping......? A carat?"

"Is that fake?" the young man pulled out of his pocket a crystal clear diamond not much smaller than an egg, "but not a carat, but a lump......

A lump......

The crowd of onlookers in front of the jewelry store was stunned. What is this unit of measurement?

A pimple?

The unit of measurement for diamonds has always been carats, and one carat is equal to 0.2 grams.

A one-carat diamond is about six millimeters in diameter. The price is already tens of thousands.

At this time, the diamond that the young man took out of his pocket was cut into a brilliant, most classic shape.

When taken out in the sun, it was as bright as if the entire starry sky was condensed on his fingers. Blind eyes.

I don't know how many people heard the sound of themselves swallowing saliva: "Goodong!"

"Lazy God Technology said that the cost of this thing is too low, and you can use the machine to help cut it for free, but it is too troublesome to manually pick the size, so it is shipped randomly, all of which are about the same size, ranging from 50 carats to 100 carats, unified units, and a lump. I'm about 80 carats. Highest clarity ......"

In other words, a diamond that is almost flawless cannot be seen with a magnifying glass.

Such a diamond, the people of Lazy God Technology actually have two pieces of five free shipping, and it is too troublesome to choose?

"I checked it on the Internet, and this year's Sotheby's spring auction sold out more than 50 million dollars. The young man said, everyone was dizzy, who would have thought. Such a diamond, a month ago, was worth more than 50 million?

And now, two pieces of five?

Really two pieces of five?

Everyone's ears. It seems that the hoarse voice of TV shopping echoes: "Two pieces of five free shipping, two pieces of five free shipping, no ninety-ninety-eight, not even ninety-eight, as long as two dollars and five cents, a hundred carats of big diamonds to take home." Absolutely heart-wrenching, absolutely exquisite craftsmanship......"

Wait, no matter how lo it is for TV shopping, two dollars and five cents won't be able to get back to the original!

But......

"Young man, is it really two dollars and five free shipping?Is there a link?Come on, share it with me a ......" Someone next to him immediately took out his mobile phone and planned to buy it.

Mr. Nan said that two pieces of five free shipping is a promotional price, and you have to lose money...... After selling 20,000 yuan, there will be no free shipping, and postage will be charged......"

Everyone suddenly realized, no wonder, two pieces of five free shipping, what is that Mr. Nan, isn't this stupid?

If it's an event, it's nothing, don't you see those who won the jackpot, are they an absolute minority?

If the so-called 20,000 yuan is snatched, how much money will be left......? A few hundred dollars.

Everyone didn't realize that in an instant, their psychological price for a diamond had been reduced to a few hundred yuan a lump.

Carats? What is that? Now on, diamonds are talking about pimples.

"How much did you cost, young man?" the crowd asked.

The young man smiled shyly, "Actually, I didn't have free shipping for this piece, and I spent five yuan on postage...... But I bought seven dollars, and the average is less than three dollars a piece......"

For a while, the onlookers next to him didn't want to speak.

Everyone is sharing links with each other, hurry up and grab a few pieces, once it's gone?

The young man shook the huge diamond in his hand, and then took out the small red velvet box next to it, opened it, revealing a ring set with 60 points of diamonds inside, and compared it together.

On one side, it is huge and bright, like a grain of stardust in the Milky Way starry sky, and on the other hand, it is slightly small, like a grain of fine sand sinking to the bottom of the water.

"80 carat diamonds, two fives, 0.6 carat diamond rings, twenty-three thousand, how do you say it is man-made, the price difference can be so big? Can it really be so scarce? Who can tell the difference?" The young man smiled bitterly, "My girlfriend said that if I can't get the money back, don't think about marrying her......"

As we all know, whether it is platinum or palladium and other white precious metals, can not maintain their value, the price is mostly speculated, spend 20,000 yuan, buy a slender little platinum key ring?

20,000 yuan, how much can you do!

At this time, few people remember that when their fiancés, boyfriends, and husbands smashed pots and sold iron, sold blood and meat to make money, and bought diamonds that could not be eaten, drunk or maintained in value, it was because who wanted to seek death and life?

Diamonds are always loved by women like their lives, and men hate them to the core.

Several people blocked the door of the jewelry store, but they couldn't get the money back after all, and finally the police came. I don't know what to do about it.

However, these people are at the door, and those who want to buy diamonds will at least think about it again. Even those who had planned to buy gold jewelry before did not buy it at this time, who knows if there will be any big changes two days later?

Throughout the day, this jewelry building was a lot more lively. There are only a handful of people who really spend money to buy things, and even if they do, they spend a few dollars to buy a silver earring.

The owner of the jewelry building had a green face and immediately called his home.

What happened to this small county-level jeweler is just a microcosm, at this moment, the same thing is happening in the whole land of China, almost all jewelry stores. are surrounded by angry buyers demanding refunds.

This is the "accidental injury to the innocent" that Nanming has been hesitating, but now, Nanming has already thought about it.

In business, there are always profits and losses, when they take worthless small broken stones and earn several times the profit of buyers, they are laughing, and now it is their turn to cry, when the Internet bubble is squeezed out. When the real estate crashes and the financial crisis, the unlucky people have to think that they are unlucky, and the people in the luxury industry are not good. Bad luck?

Lazy God Technology has enough technology to change this world, and before that, Nanming has been carefully maintaining the balance, not letting this advanced technology affect the balance of this world too much.

But now, the era of change is coming, starting today. It will not only be the luxury industry that will be unlucky, but all the industries that Lazy God Technology has entered.

Diamonds have a strict distribution system, and there are not even a few jewelers in China who really have the authority and strength to get the goods directly, most of them are distributed from Hong Kong, and because the public really recognizes not many diamond rings, more people still recognize gold, so the impact is not great.

But in the international market, jewelers large and small who started with diamonds, as well as a large number of well-known luxury brands, have all fallen into the blood mold.

The stock price has plummeted, suffered a heavy setback, and has been devastated?

Nothing is enough to describe their misery.

This day is known as the Day of Disaster by all those who work in the luxury industry.

The combined market value of these companies is at least tens of billions of dollars.

This is still just the news came out, and the capital market is still only instinctively reacting.

After this reaction, there may be all kinds of falling stones, chasing the rise and fall......

Debitz is not a boss company, but a private company that is not affected by the stock market.

But Debitz is only the core of this vast empire, not the itself, under the Escalgon family, which controls many luxury brands and has a stake in many luxury companies......

And just as the price of diamonds falls, all buyers will subconsciously run to the trouble of jewelers, jewelers look for agents, agents look for distributors, and distributors look for big distributors.

And those distributors, the members of the diamond empire built by Debbitz, when they suffer losses, the only thing they think of is to find Debbitz!

The tremors that occurred at the lowest level, like an earthquake deep in the earth's crust, instantly destroyed all the superstructures above.

And these people who stayed in the superstructure swarmed to the top floor, and they were about to kill the boss to relieve their hatred!

The cascading effect continues to expand from diamonds to other colored gemstones, and then to precious metals, and even begins to affect the price of some non-precious metals......

By the time the news came to Miss Abi, Miss Abi was completely petrified.

In front of her, an interview was being broadcast on the television.

Dozens of reporters held the microphone together to interview the big guy called Wang Ziyang of Lazy God Technology, Wang Ziyang's young face was full of confidence, and said with a smile: "You say the difference between natural diamonds? I said that this young lady probably doesn't understand what diamonds are made of, this thing is carbon, let's put it this way, although this is a bit unkind, but we took some diamonds to participate in Sotheby's spring auction before, and everyone knows the results, you can check it yourself, Sotheby's Hong Kong a month ago ......"

"Some people still don't believe that there is no difference between man-made diamonds and natural diamonds, which are diamonds that contain impurities...... Do you think there's impurities that are more individual? I might say that. With the current technology of Lazy God Technology, all kinds of diamonds can be made, and if you want the highest purity colorless diamonds, that is the easiest. Do you want colored diamonds? That's very simple, romantic pink diamonds, noble blue diamonds, ordinary yellow diamonds, special green diamonds, strange black diamonds, mysterious purple diamonds, what you want, we can make what kind of purity, what purity you want, what purity you want, you can make what purity...... Wait, how do I look like I'm advertising for an internet company?"

After the joke that was completely unfunny, Wang Ziyang's eyes widened again, and he said, "Why do we do this?"

Prince Yang smiled: "Because we can do it, isn't it very simple?"

Because we can do it?

This wayward reason was obviously not satisfactory, and immediately someone asked again.

"Impact? What's the bad effect? It's just a few stones, you can't eat or drink...... You're saying that a lot of people's possessions have evaporated? I'll tell you a story, did you know that aluminium was once the most precious metal on earth? In Mendeleev's time, it was many times more expensive than gold, and now what about it? This brother could have bought half of Britain with the shelf of your video camera more than a century ago......

Prince Yang talked eloquently at all kinds of long guns and short cannons.

And Miss Abi, who saw this scene, felt that there was only a bitter rust smell, which was echoed in her mouth.

At this time, she really wants to find someone to have a French deep kiss, so that the other party can also taste the bitterness of her mouth.
