Chapter 4 Cooperation
"36 million!" A smart person directly quoted a price, and suddenly everyone who was competing a second ago stopped at the same time.
None of those present were stupid.
Zheng Zhi raised the price of Song Hye Kyo before, naturally because Ha Ji Won and Song Hye Kyo are about the same fame, and the lot is about the same, if the price difference is too big, Song Hye Kyo's face will inevitably be a little unbearable.
The two girls sat next to Zheng Zhi at the same time, of course he had to take care of the face of the two. And everyone is scrambling to make an offer, just because they don't want to show this matter too directly.
However, the transaction price of Ha Ji Won's collection just now was 36 million, and it was ugly for Song Hye Kyo to be low. But if it's high, Ha Ji Won's face will be ugly. So 36 million is the final transaction price. Of course, it doesn't matter who shouts. With this overture, after the auction is over, Zheng Zhi will naturally not reject people thousands of miles away. It's enough to be able to talk to him.
Ha Ji Won and Song Hye Kyo on the side glanced at Zheng Zhi who had been sitting there quietly at the same time.
Some people's status doesn't need to be shown at all, and naturally someone will jump out to bring out his difference. And Zheng Zhi is undoubtedly such a person.
Stars are a bowl of youth, especially female stars, no matter how gorgeous you are, no matter how old you are, when you reach the age of 40, that kind of decline can't be stopped.
What can they do then?
In South Korea, many celebrities and teenagers became famous, and then began a busy career as an artist, with applause and flowers piled up in front of them. At that time, they always had the illusion that they could continue to be like this. It seems that nothing can bother them, as long as they open their mouths, someone will do it for them.
However, when the crisis came, perhaps just overnight, they found that everything yesterday was like a dream without a trace, and it was difficult for them to retain a piece of yesterday even if they kept it in a thousand ways.
At that time, they will be shocked to find that they have no other skills to live on except for beauty and thousands of favors.
However, they have long been accustomed to a luxurious life, and they can't save money at all, so the material conditions won for them by her short youth, and the seemingly incomparably huge wealth, can hardly make them worry-free for the rest of their lives!
And there are so many good words around them that they can't even see the world as it really is.
Song Hye Kyo and Ha Ji Won are not young little girls anymore. The shackles of time hung over their heads like a mountain, ready to be weighed down at any moment.
At this time, they began to really think about how to go in the second half of their lives.
Just now, right in front of their eyes, Zheng Zhi let them really realize how easy it is for a successful person to make money, he just quoted a price and didn't say a word, but the same thing that was originally 20 million rose directly to 36 million.
One sentence is worth 16 million. Maybe this money is worthless to Zheng Zhi, but it makes them really understand how far the person sitting in front of them is from themselves.
Therefore, smart girls have a seven-pronged exquisite heart.
Neither Ha Ji Won nor Song Hye Kyo said anything about it, and they didn't even have any further contact with Jung Ji. They turned to talk to Seo Hyun.
Zheng Zhi didn't care about the conversation between the girls, leaning on the sofa, one hand gently tapping on the armrest, not knowing what he was thinking.
Suddenly, the three girls who were talking happily suddenly stopped talking and turned to the auction table together.
The last lot is up for auction tonight. Two black-clad bodyguards escorted a shelf and slowly came to the stage.
The auctioneer looked at the audience with some excitement.
"It's finally the most exciting moment of tonight, and the last lot tonight is a large-scale oil painting created by the chairman of Dongfeng Entertainment Group."
As he spoke, the auctioneer reached out and pulled off the red cloth covering the painting. I saw a magnificent scenery with beautiful scenery jumping out of the oil painting.
For those who are familiar with it, they immediately see that it is a picture of the sunset over the San Francisco Bridge.
The whole painting is full of rich gold, which makes people look at it the same and can't help but have a sense of brilliant splendor.
Many people who don't have a lot of painting art feel the famous paintings for the first time, and they really have a different charm. They may not be able to tell the composition, the color, the deep meaning of the expression. But they could feel that the painting shook their hearts. It seems to have a brilliant artistic conception that symbolizes life.
The auctioneer continued: "President Zheng has shown his talent in the art of painting for a long time, and at last year's New York Art Fair, one of his works sold for $1 million. Today, the painting that Chairman Zheng has brought out is a masterpiece of President Zheng in recent years. Therefore, the price of this auction will start at 300 million won. ”
When this price was quoted, the eyes of the three girls on Zheng Zhi's side darkened at the same time. The reserve price is so high, and they basically have no chance with them. Naturally, their worth is more than that, but they still can't hold on to spending such a huge sum of money for a painting.
Among the three women here, Xu Xian is the youngest, debuted the latest, and her relative appearance fee is lower than that of the other two, but she has a lot of advertising income, and she is also a little rich woman. And since she invested all the rest of her money into Zheng Zhi's fund, she remembered that last time, Sunny asked Zheng Zhi about the small money fans in the team, and Zheng Zhi told them that the money they had invested had doubled!
The horrible rate of growth was unbelievable, and it still felt like a dream to speak of.
In this way, Xu Xian's personal assets are not far from each other, even if they are not as good as Ha Ji Won. At this time, facing Zheng Zhi's oil painting, he couldn't help but puff out his mouth. It's still too expensive.
And I can't help but be a little discouraged when I think about it. I have debuted for so many years, and I don't earn as much money as anyone who paints a few pictures. The gap is also too shocking.
Song Hye Kyo and Ha Ji Won on the other side are also a little related. The difference between this person and people is too big, and they are all very good at making money on weekdays. But it was not enough to see in front of this man.
Just when the three girls have different thoughts, Zheng Zhi's oil painting has been photographed for 400 million won, and it seems that it has not reached the limit.
Ha Ji Won couldn't help but ask, "Zheng Zhi, how much do you think you can shoot in the end?" ”
Zheng Zhi thought for a moment when he heard this, "500 million, this painting is probably worth 500 million, no matter how high it is, it doesn't make sense." ”
When the three girls heard this, they couldn't help but lower their heads and stuck out their tongues.
"It's worth 500 million?" This money is enough to buy a 100-square-meter house in the best area of South Korea. People are really more angry than people.
"Oppa, you promised to paint me a portrait, right?" Xu Xian on the side suddenly said a little mischievously.
Then without waiting for Zheng Zhi to reply, she had a longing look in her eyes full of little stars.
"A painting is 500 million! There are hundreds of them in OPPA's studio. Oppa, you're so good at making money. ”
Ha Ji Won and Song Hye Kyo couldn't help but be a little envious of this little guy when they heard this. To have such a great painter to help her paint portraits, maybe she may be famous in the history of painting in the future.
If it can become an immortal masterpiece like the Mona Lisa, it will be a death without regrets!
Think about it again, there are 100 paintings in the studio, one is sold for 100 million, and 100 is 10 billion.
God, is there a better way to earn a deal in the world?
Ha Ji Won and Song Hye Kyo were a little messy for a while, sitting there not knowing what to say.
Zheng Zhi looked at the naughty Xu Xian a little speechlessly, this little guy is a little lively tonight! Is something going on? Is it the object of the conversation? I'll have to ask later.
The auction was still going on, and at this time the bidding was already in full swing, and one of the people who had been increasing the price was a very elegant lady, who looked like 30 people. The facial features are not particularly beautiful, but there is a kind of atmosphere that is rare in Koreans. Graceful figure.
The other is a middle-aged man, many people know him, and he is really a president of LG in South Korea.
When the price exceeded 500 million, Zheng Zhi couldn't help but be a little serious. You must know that the level of this painting is already a lot of water for 500 million, but as long as you wait for the right time, it is still expected to appreciate.
But at this time, the price of more than 500 million, Zheng Zhi didn't think his paintings were worth this price. That's what it means to do what you like.
Zheng Zhi is thinking about the various kinds of cooperation that can be foreseen for a while.
Zheng Zhi is not a god, and he naturally needs cooperation as well. But there's a lot to learn about what kind of people to work with. South Korea's Hyundai, a giant with heavy industry as its main focus, Zheng Zhi must think clearly about the other party's plans.
Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not make mistakes, and Zheng Zhi is now more vigilant than before.
Eventually, the painting was bought by the elegant lady. The transaction price was 700 million won.
When the auctioneer dropped the hammer, Zheng Zhi was the first to stand up and applaud it. He has always been more tolerant of those who are willing to do charity.
The climax of the evening partially passed. Zheng Zhi didn't continue to sit this time, and took the three daughters and began to talk with some peers who had met a few times.
Soon the woman who had taken the picture tonight came over.
"Hello, get to know me, I'm the founder of Xiangmengdi, Hu Minshan!" The woman came to Zheng Zhi and stretched out her soft wattle with the grace of neither humility nor arrogance, and gently shook it with Zheng Zhi.
"I'm Zheng Zhi!"
The woman nodded, indicating that she knew.
"Can you talk to Mr. Zheng for a few words?" This time she used Chinese, and Zheng Zhi was slightly stunned.
No wonder she didn't feel like a Korean before. It turns out that it really isn't.
Looking at the modern president who was standing not far away, frequently looking at him, Zheng Zhi thought about it, and still reached out to ask her to return to his previous seat.
Although he had gotten up and left, no one would have come and sit in his place without opening his eyes. That's identity!
Xu Xian and the three didn't follow, they could see that this woman was different from them, and the other party was in business. What I want to talk about with Zheng Zhi must also be a business thing. Their status is clearly not suitable. And the other party just spoke Chinese, which means that I don't want them to listen.
After Zheng Zhi led Hu Minshan to sit down, Hu Minshan did not have any false politeness. He said directly: "Mr. Zheng may not know much about my company, I am from Hong Kong. The company is also in Hong Kong. The last time Mr. Zheng went to Hong Kong, I wanted to visit Mr. Zheng, but I didn't expect Mr. Zheng to be so busy, so I didn't stay for a few days and returned to Korea. ”
Zheng Zhiyan heard that he had a bottom about her origin. It's just that since the other party is not the first time to find him, there must be something to talk about.
"My company makes watches, and I'm a designer myself, so I like that painting very much." Hu Minshan opened by herself to talk about the painting. Make it clear that you don't want to ask for it, the subtext is that everyone is talking about business, and you don't need to take into account human feelings.
Zheng Zhiyan nodded noncommittally, but just motioned for the other party to continue.
"My biggest goal is to make a watch brand for China. In the world, the name of Made in China is too weak. I have followed Mr. Zheng and many of your investments, and I can feel that Mr. Zheng has a good impression of Chinese brands and entrepreneurs, and Mr. Zheng has also provided venture capital for many talented entrepreneurs in China. So I would like to talk to Mr. Zheng about a cooperation. ”
Zheng Zhi heard this, and spoke for the first time after sitting down.
"What is the market value of your company today?"
"A billion Hong Kong dollars!" Hu Minshan did not twist and gave an accurate answer.
"Did you make your own watches before?" Zheng Zhi asked again.
"I sell watches, and I'm an agent for world-renowned brands. I have enough experience and ability in the distribution of goods in the market. ”
"But you don't have a brand watch in your hand!" Zheng asked straight to the core.
"Yes, but I see that Mr. Cheng is constantly expanding his projects in Europe, especially in the UK. I don't know Mr. Zheng's whole plan, but I think that if Mr. Zheng takes a second-tier brand and then starts operating on top of that. Then this plan of mine is likely to come true. ”
Zheng Zhiyan didn't rush to answer when he heard this, and his fingers began to tap on the armrests of the sofa. Hu Minshan looked at him slightly nervously, and it could be seen that she attached great importance to this cooperation.
After a long time, Zheng Zhi stopped what he was doing and said, "You bring the complete plan, and we will discuss it in detail in the company." The time is set for the day after tomorrow. Is Miss Hu having any difficulties? ”
"No, thank you, Mr. Zheng." Hu Minshan got up and stretched out her hand to Zheng Zhi.
Zheng Zhi also got up and shook her hands, Hu Minshan didn't stay any longer, and left the party directly.
Zheng Zhi sat down again. His brows were slightly locked, as if he was thinking about something.
When Hu Minshan left, many people were ready to move again. And the president of South Korea's Hyundai was the first to make a move.
Zheng Zhi responded politely to these people one by one, and he was not in a hurry to give answers, things always had to be slow little by little.
Until Zheng Zhi left the venue, the people who visited him around him had not heard for a moment.
At first, Xu Xian didn't care, but then even she was a little speechless. It's also too hectic.
And Ha Ji Won and Song Hye Kyo took advantage of the gap when there was no one around Zheng Zhi to say goodbye to him and left first.
None of them have a very free time to move.
When Zheng Zhi walked out of the venue with Xu Xian, it was already close to midnight.
Zheng Zhi looked at Xu Xian and said, "Are you tired?" ”
Xu Xian's eyes were shining, and he shook his head: "I'm very satisfied, I'm not tired." ”
Zheng Zhi smiled, this girl is what he particularly likes. Atmosphere! (To be continued.) )
