After the new start-up enterprises in the world in 81 years gradually formed a scale, Lin Qi's hands-off shopkeeper became more and more proficient. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As the boss of the company, he also had fewer and fewer things to deal with. In addition to major events involving the life and death of the company, or transactions with an investment scale of more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, he needs to sign and approve. Under normal circumstances, a few management members of the company can already decide most things.

For Lin Qi, his core competence is not management ability or investment ability, but the key is the information asymmetry advantage that comes from decades ahead in the 21st century.

Of course, Lin Qi still needs to keep returning to the 21st century to "recharge" and "replenish".

During the summer vacation in July 1981. Under the guise of a vacation in Shenzhen, Lin Qi once again traveled to the 21st century......

……

2018, July, Shenzhen. Antique City.

The whole antique city, of course, is mixed, whether it is a vendor or a store, the goods sold cannot guarantee their authenticity. Therefore, only real experts can pick up leaks at a low price here, otherwise most of the paintings will be fooled into buying imitations at a high price.

Lin Qi found a new Sotheby's branch.

Previously, Lin Qi contacted Sotheby's customer service in Hong Kong by phone and determined that the branch in Shenzhen was indeed owned by Sotheby's, so he was relieved to talk to Sotheby's about business.

"Does your company provide appraisal of jade, ancient books, stamps, etc.?" Lin Qi asked.

"Of course, we provide related services. A Sotheby's employee said.

"Is there a fee for appraisal?" Lin Qi said.

"We at Sotheby's hold auctions, and there are no appraisal fees and no fees. But after the fact, we take a 15% commission, plus a 3% tax rate, and you get 82% of the auction proceeds. The clerk said, "Of course, before we can make a preliminary determination, we need to make a preliminary determination that your item is necessary!"

The income of a regular company that deals in auction items mainly depends on the value of the auction items. Not all antiques, works of art, have auction value.

The professional appraisal masters have very high salaries, and most of the appraisal of those "ancestral tea pots" and "ancestral jade" is a waste of time.

After all, most of the so-called ancestral things have not been too long, and most of them are ordinary folk utensils, rather than collectible works of art. You can't really believe it because grandpa brags and says that the ancestral teapot is very valuable. Because, I can't figure out that this ancestral teapot was bought by my grandfather in the store when he was young. The so-called long history can only be traced back to the pre-liberation period at most......

What's more, antiques are not relatively old and valuable, just like a set of furniture ordered in a furniture factory in modern times, even if it is preserved for hundreds of years, it is still worthless. Generally, only those that are scarce and have extremely high artistic value in themselves will be valuable as the history becomes longer and longer.

Lin Qi smiled and took out a piece of jade first!

Although it was a small piece of jadeite, the faces of the auction house staff in front of him changed!

Glass kind imperial green!

This is the king of jadeite, the top imperial green, according to its quality per gram worth 200,000 upwards, and this piece of jade is only a blank, has not been processed. But just by visual inspection, it is definitely more than 10 million treasures.

"Sir, you go to the guest room and wait, the master of the appraisal will soon come. Is there anything else to identify besides jade?" the clerk asked.

"Yes, the rare book "Golden Vase Plum". Lin Qi said leisurely, "A copy of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet from the 16th century. And, of course, there's a full-page monkey ticket, as well as a miscellaneous collection of collectibles. ”

Although the remaining auction items may not be as valuable as the Imperial Green Jadeite, they are definitely worth a lot......

Soon after, the auction house arranged for three appraisers to preliminarily appraise Lin Qi's collection to be auctioned.

"316.5 grams of glass imperial face jadeite, preliminary estimates, worth 60 million yuan. A master said regretfully, "If it is a finished product processed by a famous artist, it may be worth 200 million! If the bank is entrusted to find a famous processor, it may be able to greatly increase its value, and then the auction value will be higher." ”

Lin Qi smiled and said, "No, if the cut is broken, the loss will be at least more than 10 million!

Soon after, the valuation of the rare book of "Golden Vase Plum" also came out, it was Chongzhen's book, but it was printed during the Kangxi period, and it was worth at least 2 million yuan according to the current collection market.

The original English edition of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, published in the 17th century, is currently a very popular collection in the international collectibles market, with a valuation of at least HK$3 million.

A full page of monkey tickets, the current market is also worth 2 million. There are also a lot of miscellaneous stamps, which add up to a million dollars.

Lin Qi signed an agreement with Sotheby's for a consignment auction to be held in Hong Kong on July 25. In the whole auction, the most attractive is undoubtedly the imperial green jadeite.

The rest of the collections, although they are also very valuable, have become the foil of the imperial green jadeite.

Jadeite worth 60 million is definitely the top luxury even if it is not a rare treasure. Ordinary billionaires are reluctant to pay for this thing.

The $60 million valuation is the price for 2018.

In fact, although jade was still valuable in 81, its valuation was not very outrageous before more than 1 billion Chinese became rich, and Lin Qi bought it for only 760,000 yuan.

Now that it is auctioned, it may be worth 60 million, which undoubtedly makes Lin Qi feel very excited in his heart.

"By the way, I need money in the near future, and I need to buy a house in Shenzhen. Can I use the auction collection as collateral and borrow 50 million yuan first?" Lin Qi asked, "When the auction is completed, the loan will be returned." ”

"Yes!" Sotheby's agreed to Lin Qi's request after some discussion.

Because, the valuation given by Sotheby's is conservative, according to the normal auction market, his collateral, the auction value of more than 100 million yuan, is only the normal market price, if, if you meet some rich people who particularly like collections, the value soars again, it is not impossible.

With something as a guarantee, I am not afraid that Lin Qi will not pay back the money borrowed.

Next, under the notarization of the lawyer, the two parties signed a mortgage loan agreement again.

On July 15, Lin Qi got 50 million yuan in cash, and then began to go to the villa area of Yinhu Villa, spending 46 million yuan at any cost to buy a small villa with an area of only 300 square meters.

Although the value of each square meter is more than 100,000 yuan, the large amount of vacant land and yards in front of and behind the house of the single-family house makes this transaction not too much of a loss.

What's more, Lin Qi has a fixed crossing base in both worlds. The villas on both sides were bought by Lin Qi, and the crossing was carried out at home, and the confidentiality was guaranteed to a certain extent.

After buying the villa, Lin Qi repurchased furniture and supplies, no matter how extravagant he was, he couldn't spend millions. With the remaining 3 million cash, Lin Qi injected it into Felix again.

After not paying attention to the company here for a few months, Yun Xianke reported to Lin Qi and said: "Boss, now Felix's Feiqi has 100,000 VIP members. The number of authors has stabilized at more than 200. According to the rules you set, adopt a elimination mechanism similar to the "Shonen Jump" magazine, so that the new serialized novels on the entire website form a metabolism. The quality of serialized books has been continuously improved...... At present, the membership fee of the website has increased to 3 yuan per month. It is estimated that the monthly membership income is 300,000 yuan, and the monthly cost expenditure is 500,000 yuan. It is expected that it will take time to turn losses into profits. ”

100,000 paid readers, it is indeed not easy.

Lin Qi nodded and said, "Don't worry! Good books and good authors both need time to brew." ”

"By the way, this site's "Otaku is Always Crossed" was favored by the video website, and the other party offered a copyright fee of 200,000. After all, this book is the treasure of this site, and there are at least 50,000 paid readers who follow it every day. This kind of popular work, if it is a big website, will cost at least millions or even tens of millions of yuan in adaptation fees. Moreover, I think that excellent IP should be left to the future parent company...... After all, the purpose of the parent company is for IP, not to make such a little. ”

"Sell!" Lin Qi said calmly.

"What?" the unheard was a little puzzled.

"In the early stage, to open up the situation, at least some works were adapted by film and television. Even if it is an online drama adaptation, it is better than nothing. Lin Qi said, "Moreover, at the beginning, the works we sold made the adaptor make money, and then we will continue to attract buyers to buy our IP!"

"Cast a long line to catch a big fish?" the uncyclinarian pondered.

Catch a fart!

Because, the truth is that there is no strong parent company at all, and the copyright is in your hands, do you think it is a masterpiece?

The copyright of those famous works will still not damage its value after decades, but most of the adaptations of works are time-sensitive.
