Chapter 355: Unspoken rules are everywhere

Hearing Zhao Qiuzhi say this, Zhang Yang knew that there was a big trouble, and things were not as simple as he thought, and fortunately he found Zhao Qiuzhi and asked, otherwise he would have rashly found those auction houses, and he didn't know how to suffer.

After Zhao Qiuzhi finished speaking, he glanced at his flamboyant face worriedly, and was relieved to find that he was not angry, nor was he angry with himself. In fact, he didn't plan to say these words, after all, these are inside information, and people who have not been immersed in the antique shop for many years can't understand it. However, after Qin Yonghua came, he was under great pressure.

Although Qin Yonghua has few words, his ability is not small, and the Palace Museum has not been in vain for so many years. His eyesight is no worse than Zhao Qiuzhi, and in the interpretation of many things, he is even higher than Zhao Qiuzhi. If Zhao Qiuzhi wants to continue to be the chief master, he must show his value. Therefore, after he learned that Zhang Yang had plans to find an auction house to cooperate, he took the initiative to send the information.

"You go on, I'll listen!" Zhang Yang stopped and said to Zhao Qiuzhi.

Zhao Qiuzhi nodded and said, "So these large auction companies, we can't choose for the time being." And the rest of the small auction companies, we can't choose. If something is placed with them, it is likely to be unsold. In the past, there have been cases of antiques being dropped by auction companies, and we can't choose them, whether from the perspective of safety or profit. ”

Zhang Yang's face was a little bad, the big ones didn't work, the small ones didn't work, and there were only these things left that couldn't go up or down.

Zhang Yang pointed to the few companies he picked out and asked, "How about these three?" ”

Zhao Qiuzhi took it and said: "Hongguang Auction Co., Ltd. was established very early, but their fees have always been very high. ”

Zhang Yang asked, "How much?" ”

Zhao Qiuzhi said with a wry smile: "In addition to paying the auction house's 0% commission, % personal income tax, % storage fee, and more than 1,000 yuan of catalogue fees, I also have to give them 20-0% of the benefit fee privately." Otherwise, they won't auction it for you. ”

Zhang Yang scolded: ", they might as well rob it." ”

Zhao Qiuzhi smiled bitterly and said: "This is actually the rule of a large auction house, and it is also a rule that is not public. The most ruthless thing about Hongguang is that they will charge you half of the benefit fee. In other words, 64% of the proceeds of your auction will be taken out as expenses, and the rest will be yours personally. Take our one-of-a-kind Xuande furnace as an example, if it is sold at an auction house for a sky-high price of 10 million, you can only get 3.6 million, and the rest is someone else's. ”

Zhang Yang's face turned green after hearing this.

Damn, no wonder he didn't even ask for a price of fifteen million, he was still thinking about why those auction companies didn't take the initiative to find out if they knew that they had good things, it turned out that they were waiting for themselves to go!

"What about the remaining two?" Zhang Yang asked.

Zhao Qiuzhi shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Almost, in the auction between the two of them, you can probably get fifty percent of the proceeds." ”

This time, Zhang Yang's face was really gloomy and terrifying, and he had a lot of good things on hand. Mei Que Zheng Chuntian Huangshi seal, free Guanyin statue, millennium jade jue, Kangxi pastel vase, unique Xuande furnace, Mao porcelain, as well as a variety of rare stamps and unique books, as well as calligraphy and paintings that have not been sold out, he originally thought that these auction houses could be sold for hundreds of millions of sky-high prices, if according to Zhao Qiuzhi's statement, he would have to take out 50 million yuan for the benefit fee alone.

That's not 500,000, it's not 5 million, it's 50 million, it's a human life!

When he was on TV before, when he heard the valuation of those experts, he auctioned millions of dollars, and it turned out to be so big. If they don't sell high, where will these auction houses make money, and how can just such a little commission satisfy their appetite.

If it was five million and ten million, Zhang Yang would pinch his nose and admit it, but if he wanted him to take out half of the proceeds to satisfy the appetite of those guys, he couldn't do it. Although these things are easy to come by, they are all sky-high treasures, rare genuine products, and he doesn't earn as much as the auction house, where can he stand it.

"Is that true of all auction houses?" Zhang Yang said.

Zhao Qiuzhi smiled bitterly and said: "Boss, this is the unspoken rule of the auction house, if you want to sell the goods from them first, you have to accept their rules, otherwise you don't want to bid a high price." Of course, if Huang Lao comes forward, he can make an exception. After all, Huang Lao's status in the rivers and lakes is there, but as far as I know, there is an auction house in Huang's hometown. ”

Zhang Yang did not speak with a gloomy face, if there was no auction house in Huang's hometown, he would not organize the auction of high-priced wool. I can't imagine that the old man who has been smiling has such a deep scheming hidden behind it. Huang Lao never reminded him of these things, and he still had to exercise his eyes. The old fox is the old fox, and he deceived himself so miserably.

"You mean it's not going to work?" Zhang Yang said.

Zhao Qiuzhi shook his head and said, "It's not that there is no chance at all, it's just that we have to find a partner." In fact, many auction houses have fixed receiving channels, and the antique shops in Panjiayuan also have their own partners. ”

Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you mean by partner?" ”

"The benefit fee is actually given to the person in charge of the auction company. If there is no partner, the benefit fee will be very high, and the auction house will share the benefits up and down. And if we cooperate with the general manager of that auction company, that is, the person in charge, these benefits will go underground, and only one person will take it, maybe only 10%. Zhao Qiuzhi said.

Zhang Yang said in surprise: "So little? ”

Zhao Qiuzhi said: "It's less to get up, but there are other conditions." It is that these people in charge may come up with some things of unknown origin and auction them in the name of our store, some of these things are real, but more are fake. It's good that there is no accident, once there is an accident, all the responsibility is our store. We will bear the loss, and the reputation of the store will also suffer. ”

Zhang Yang frowned and said, "In other words, he will use the reputation of our store to take fakes." ”

Zhao Qiuzhi sighed and said, "Not only that, but some things will also be delivered to the store for us to help sell." These are the costs. It is also a mutually beneficial cooperation. When they go down to receive the goods, they often carry private goods, and if it is not convenient to auction, they will be handed over to us to deal with. And we can also use the auction house to dispose of some goods that cannot be judged to be authentic. ”

Zhang Yang didn't say anything anymore, what Zhao Qiuzhi said was already very clear, either he would pay a high price and auction off his genuine product. Either they are in the same league as them, selling the real and the fake. There is no third way to go.

"Okay, I see, you go out first." Zhang Yang said with a gloomy face.

Zhao Qiuzhi didn't say anything, and retreated.

Zhang Yang smoked a smoky cigarette, one after another, and the office was full of smoke.

When Hong Yaqin pushed the door and came in, she came to such a scene.

"What's going on?" Hong Yaqin said.

Zhang Yang hurriedly extinguished the cigarette in his hand, opened the window to breathe, and said with a forced smile: "You are here." Sit down, I'll be here right away, let's go out to dinner. ”

Hong Yaqin stepped forward and shook Zhang Yang's hand and said, "If there is anything else you can't say to me, don't forget that I am your girlfriend." ”

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "It's nothing." By the way, what kind of person is Yaqin Huang? ”

Hong Yaqin said suspiciously: "Uncle Huang? He is a well-known expert in the Forbidden City, has brought out many students, and has a high status in the antique world. He had a good relationship with my dad, they had known each other since we were younger, and I didn't know much about the rest. ”

"What about the Huang family?" Zhang Yang said.

Although Hong Yaqin didn't understand why Zhang Yang asked, she still explained: "The Huang family's status in politics is not very high. After all, their family has always been mainly engaged in business. However, my father said that although the Huang family is not famous, it is very rich. By the way, I have also heard that the Huang family donated a lot of cultural relics to the country in the early years, which is also the reason why Huang Lao is respected by many people. What happened to Zhang Yang? ”

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'll just ask casually." By the way, where are we going to eat today, I have something to do in the past two days, and I haven't been with you well. ”

Hong Yaqin said: "Let's go eat French food." ”

Zhang Yang said: "Okay, let's go." ”

During the meal, Hong Yaqin found that Zhang Yang was distracted from time to time, and said worriedly: "Don't hide it from me, what is the matter with you, maybe I can help, one person is short and two are long." ”

Zhang Yang put down the knife and fork, thought for a while, and said: "The company's affairs, I'll think of a way first, if it's not in the line, I'll tell you." ”

Zhang Yang didn't want to rely on Hong Yaqin completely.

He knew that as long as he proposed it, Hong Yaqin would go to ask Hong Lao to find Huang Lao's help and help him solve this problem.

But that's not what he wants, if he relies on women for everything, then what's the point of him opening this Bogu Lent! Doesn't it seem that he is too incompetent! Boguzhai relies on Hong Yaqin, and Yangfan Investment Co., Ltd. relies on Ji Yutong, so he has really become a soft eater, and he doesn't believe that he can't find a solution.
