Chapter 165: I Am a Legend
Chapter 165: I'm a Legend
However, in any case, Mr. Hong's jadeite processing and production company still gave Jia Yidao a great shock.
Not to mention the exquisite skills of those workers, Yangmei's jade carvers, no matter where they are placed, are definitely among the best. At this point, long before Jia Rudao came, his heart was clear. Even Sihui, which is also in Guangdong and is a holy land for jadeite processing, if you really want to talk about carving, I'm afraid it is still not as good as Yangmei's.
What surprised Jia Yidao even more was that in addition to these human factors, Yangmei's jadeite processing has a greater advantage in the advanced nature of the instrument. In this year, especially after entering the 21st century, if there is no high-tech drive, it is impossible to form a mature industrial chain. It's like a cutting machine for jadeite rough, in Mr. Hong's company, there are a lot of instruments in various forms and functions, which Jia Rudao has never seen before. Curiously inquired, I learned that these machines were newly produced.
In many details, as well as specific operation requirements, they are all perfected by Yangmei themselves.
As a result, both its performance and operability are not comparable to those of previous instruments. Of course, it can't be compared, and there is also its high price.
Speaking of this, Mr. Hong's face naturally overflowed with a sense of pride. You must know that it is no accident that a small place like Yangmei can have today's fame.
More than 100 years of history, especially the exhibition in the past 1 year, has made Yangmei's jade processing regulations continue to expand. Originally, these processed jadeite products were only purchased by jewelry stores in Hong Kong and then packaged and sold. However, after the Asian financial crisis at the end of the last century, many jewellery shops in Hong Kong did not do much business as before. At the same time, the Yangmei jade business, which is characterized by high quality and unique craftsmanship, is still expanding. Those jewelers from all over the world who had previously picked up the goods in Hong Kong naturally came directly to Yangmei to buy jade.
In this way, Yangmei's exhibition has also entered a golden age.
And Mr. Hong's age is an authentic Yangmei jade merchant who has witnessed such an era. Coupled with his own legendary experience of gambling stones, it undoubtedly has a stronger attraction for young people like Jia Yidao.
"Huh. If Xiao Jia is interested in Mr. Hong's gambling stone scripture. You can find some free time. I'll give you a good talk. After walking out of the jadeite processing site, Biao said.
"Brother Wang. What about gambling on the stone calendar yourself?" Jia Rudao couldn't help but ask with some curiosity. "Isn't it legendary?"
Let's talk about everyone's gambling stones. In addition to the wealth that others can see or accumulate now. More sinister. But it is not enough for outsiders. It's like Mr. Hong and Wang Biao. Such a businessman. After listening to Jia Rudao. It was just a faint smile.
"What's wrong? Am I asking the wrong thing?" Jia Rudao didn't feel a little uncomfortable when he saw the two of them. Fortunately, Li Shiyun stood on the edge of his ground and asked in a whisper. But it caused Li Shiyun to roll her eyes widely. The look. It seems to be telling which one is involved in gambling stones. And in the end, it is a legend to get a certain value?
People who can fight out of the industry of nine out of ten bets. itself. It's a great legend.
Xu noticed the exchange of words between Jia Yidao and Li Shiyun. Mr. Hong smiled. Instead, he led a few people into an office. The location here. In Jia Yidao's opinion. It's very special. As long as it is a person who enters the Hong general company. It should be at the time of entering the door. You can see it. And. The interior is furnished on the periphery. It's also extremely weird.
In the whole office, there are no desks, computers, or file cabinets or anything like that, but there is a fairly spacious counter in the middle of the office. Underneath is a wooden structure, rectangular, and on top of the wooden pintop, there is a long glass display case.
There were some stones in a rather disorderly manner.
As soon as he first entered his eyes, Jia Rudao felt very familiar, and then, when he got closer, he could see that the glass counter was full of slices of some jadeite roughs, or directly half a small jadeite rough. On the facet, some are white, some will flash a hint of green, and more are jadeite of various colors and textures. Although it is not very valuable in terms of value, I am afraid that it is displayed with ulterior motives like this, right?
What's more, what is even more rare is that on the facets of these jadeite rough slices, some places are also marked with time, place, and other words. At first glance, it really gives people a weird feeling.
Jia Rudao looked at it simply
It can be seen that the best slices of jadeite rough should be cut bright green. Moreover, the slice is very thin and thin, and on the cutting surface, you can almost detect a trace of pause, and it is completely conceivable how careful the owner of the jadeite rough was when cutting.
And the largest half of the jadeite rough, about half the size of a head, the jadeite texture on it, but it is really very ordinary, probably not even a bean seed, the inlaid greenery, it is very dry, the head is insufficient, in the eyes of Jia Yidao, it is a piece of waste, there is no collection value at all.
I don't know why, but it's going to be on the display counter.
"Could it be ,......" Jia Rudao's heart moved, and he turned his head to look at Mr. Hong, only to see that he was staring at these jade rough slices of varying quality on the counter, with a look of memory on his face.
"The jade rough slices in here are all stones that I gambled on myself, and I cut them with my own hands and left them behind. Mr. Hong said to a few people, "Since I started gambling on stones, there is a lot of commemorative significance." For example, the first time it was cut down, look, it was the largest jadeite rough. ……”
As he spoke, Mr. Hong paused, pointed to the half-head-sized jade rough that Jia Rudao thought was worthless before, and a very thick smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, before he continued: "At that time, I had just entered the industry, and I spent 8,000 yuan in a hurry to gamble back this thing. ”
"Eight thousand yuan?" the woman surnamed Liu muttered with some understanding.
"What, isn't it less?" Mr. Hong said with a smile, "Actually, I was indeed not rich back then. Don't say it's 8,000 yuan, it's 800 yuan, for me, if I want to spend it all at once, I will have to struggle for a long, long time in my heart. However, isn't this the charm of gambling stones? One knife is poor, one knife is rich. The people who are in it always hope that they are the ones who get rich.
Results ,......"
Mr. Hong pointed to the half of the Fei Rough Stone that had been preserved, and the result could be imagined.
"It seems that Mr. Hong is still stronger than me~ . Wang Biao glanced at the half of the jade rough and said, "Eight thousand pieces twenty years ago is already a lot." Moreover, this half of the jadeite rough, excluding the faceted part, is indeed very good in terms of the performance of the epidermis. Even if I were to gamble now, I would dare to spend hundreds of thousands. ”
"Look at you, don't you have me?" Mr. Hong said to Wang Biao indifferently, "However, I did have the psychology of gambling at that time." If you make a profit, you will continue to gamble on stones, and if you lose, you will go home and farm. ……”
"But, isn't this jade rough stone collapsing?" Jia Rudao was a little puzzled. According to Mr. Hong's own words, I'm afraid that after that time, he should have stopped, right?
"yes. Mr. Hong responded, "After that, for a long time, for half a month, I locked myself in my room and made up my mind not to gamble anymore." Even if my friends around me are still participating, I didn't do it. At most, it is to watch and listen more when you can't help it. Perhaps, my vision of gambling stones was also exercised at that time. Speaking of which, Mr. Hong was quite self-deprecating.
"By the way, Xiao Jia, you are also a person in the industry. It should be known that Yangmei's gambling stone merchants can build such a large jade market, what is the biggest reason. Mr. Hong asked.
"It should be the open shareholding system in the process of gambling stones. Jia Rudao replied. The so-called open shareholding system, that is, before a piece of jadeite rough is cut, by many people to participate freely, there is no contract and agreement, pay attention to, is the verbal form, and then we share the risk according to the injected funds, if the good jadeite is cut, it is naturally shared by everyone, if it is a piece of waste, we also share the loss. This form is conducive to the exhibition of the market, and it also makes Yangmei people learn to unite even more.
Don't you see, in recent years, in the Myanmar Yangon jadeite market, Jieyang's jadeite businessmen are 'making waves', every time there is a big move? Even many companies that produce jadeite raw materials in Myanmar do not dare to ignore this force, and have established a good cooperative relationship with the jadeite merchants here in Jieyang.
So far, whether in the domestic or international market, the businessmen in the Jieyang area have formed an unstoppable regional force. Compared with the competition of individuals and companies in other regions, this kind of cooperation in Jieyang area is not more competitive and vigorous.
Just like Mr. Hong in front of him, Jia Rudao didn't think that he would ask about this sentence casually. Undoubtedly, it is precisely because of this way of sharing risks that Mr. Hong has restarted his gambling legend!
