Chapter 168: Science and Technology Flow (6)

Half a catty of diamonds, in fact, is only 250g, 1250 carats, if it is less than 5 carats of diamonds, the most expensive per carat is only 50,000 US dollars, but Huang Xuan left to the end, how can there be a cheap price.

In the Great Depression in the United States, Huang Xuan was really printing money to buy diamonds, as long as you think about the consumption of tens of millions of dollars a day, you can know how many diamonds Huang Xuan left in his hand.

I didn't use it as collateral, firstly, the cash was enough, and secondly, these diamonds were too eye-catching, but Huang Jindi's body immediately improved, and when he could get up from the bed, then Huang Xuan really had nothing to worry about, and he could do it with peace of mind.

Liu Ziqing accompanied Huang Xuan, chatted casually, and did not go to the appraiser to join in the fun. He had just been promoted, his salary was raised, and he was in a good mood, and it was also related to Huang Xuan, so he drank whiskey and thanked Huang Xuan: "Thanks to you, the company took pity on me a few days ago and gave me a promotion, if you have any small things to sell in the future, just tell me directly." ”

He said and pointed to the diamond in the center of the table and smiled, "But if that's the case, I can't make the decision directly." ”

Huang Xuan smiled at the corner of his mouth, leaned against the table, and said, "Then what number of people are you at Sotheby's now?" ”

"China is always on the top line." Liu Ziqing took a sip of whiskey and praised: "But I still can't afford such a good wine." ”

"I like to give you a few bottles, and you can take them yourself in the wine cabinet."

"Next time." Liu Ziqing shook his head regretfully and said, "Next time I have a chance, I can't take it if I work today." ”

Huang Xuan said with a smile: "I'm afraid I'm worried that so many people will give you a share." Then next time. ”

Liu Ziqing nodded, then smiled mysteriously, lowered his head and whispered, "Mr. Huang, are you going to sell all these diamonds?" ”

"Of course."

"If you need money right now, I have a proposal."

"Oh?"

Liu Ziqing turned around with a wine glass, and said behind the appraisers: "Sotheby's has a lot of business, including very small private auctions, although the number of participants is small, but if you are sure that all of them are people who have the intention to buy, it is easy to pay a large price, and in such an auction, Sotheby's will never 'reveal' your identity." ”

Huang Xuan pouted and did not speak.

"The other one." Liu Ziqing said softly: "You have so many diamonds in your hands, if you sell them at once, the price will always be lowered, and those who can buy so many diamonds are always companies and institutions, we can invite them, everyone sits together, and the price is easier to get closer to reality." ”

Huang Xuan thought for a while, then suddenly laughed, and said, "Are you worried that so many diamonds don't have certificates and are not easy to deal with?" ”

Liu Ziqing was not embarrassed, but had a clear look, which made Huang Xuan laugh, he patted Liu Ziqing on the shoulder and said, "Then so be it, you are professionals." ”

Seeing that Huang Xuan was so easy to speak, Liu Ziqing also relieved himself, these diamonds have no certificates, and there will be a lot of trouble in the auction house, although there are quite a lot of gray "color" diamonds, but it can be said that it is the best way to move all of them to conduct a small auction. As far as Huang Xuan is concerned, if the news comes out that he is in urgent need of money, it will always have some impact on the future plans, so it is better to be more appropriate.

After finishing the business, Liu Ziqing tasted the wine, but also said, Huang Xuan listened with great interest, and took the time to look at the energy screen in front of him, and chatted with Lorraine by the way.

Most of Nick's equipment is unusable, and it takes a lot of energy to recover, but the communication and data collection capabilities are generally fine, although there is not even a buffer, but the level 18 base is still more efficient, but it has not yet been connected to the R plane, after all, it is not a plane like P112, everything has rules, and Huang Xuan is also a little conservative before he figured it out.

If it is to buy an energy supply base in P112, the down payment is 3 billion US dollars, and it will be similar every year in the future, Huang Xuan is not ready to do this, there are really not many people who can earn 3 billion US dollars a year, so don't owe a lot of debts at that time. And if you rely on Blu-ray DVDs, it stands to reason that it will take 4 years to enter the harvest period.

Thinking so, Huang Xuan lit on the energy screen in front of him, Liu Ziqing had already squatted in front of the wine cabinet alone, he was a person who was good at observing words and feelings, and he would never make his employer unhappy.

The failure of HD-DVD can also be said to be due to its advantages, HD disc production is backward compatible, that is, with the production line of DVD discs, HD discs can be produced, which is naturally beneficial to reduce costs, but for the main supporters of HD, Hollywood companies, this is advantageous over piracy, so when Warners thought that the format battle should be quickly ended, they asked studios such as 20th Century Fox, who refused to join the HD camp on this ground, Therefore, Warner finally defected to the Blu-ray camp and threw his traditional ally Toshiba to the ground.

Of course, the reason for HD's failure is not so simple, Sony's advantages as a Hollywood production company, as well as the popularity of PS3, have overwhelmed HD, but it is not a sure failure, if this is a heterotopic plane, Huang Xuan's first choice is to support Toshiba - it is precisely because this is P112, so Huang Xuan will cautiously go with the flow, following Sony, instead of going the other way around.

Huang Xuan has read these materials several times, many of them are analysis articles from different planes, and there are even planes where HD wins, but in the investigation of local similarity, the values of these planes are too low, and they are listed as not considered by Nick.

The so-called local similarity is Nick's ability as a level 18 base, that is, the ability to investigate part of the time or part of the event in a certain plane - the higher the base, the higher the degree of refinement of the investigation - the local similarity is actually the similarity of two planes in one of them, or take Napoleon as an example, no matter how much the overall similarity of the two planes is, just examine Napoleon, if Napoleon in one of the planes died long ago and was replaced by another indigenous officer, Then the local similarity between P112 and it in this regard may be only 50%; If Napoleon in one of the planes is not only dead, but there are no similar people present, then the local similarity of the two planes may be close to 0; And if you look at the overall similarity of the last two planes, they are still likely to be above 80%, after all, the similarity of the planes is facing the entire history of mankind.

Therefore, it is with Nick that Huang Xuan can rest assured and boldly make money from technology, because he himself does not understand technology, and if he can't get a complete similar technology, he can't even take it out for others to modify.

Just as he was turning over the energy and holding his energy, Liu Ziqing walked over with whiskey, looked at Huang Xuan who was distracted, and called in a low voice: "Mr. Huang, the valuation is complete." ”

"Oh." Huang Xuan's grace made Lorraine put away the energy screen, and then he came back to his senses and said, "How?" ”

"It's worth more than $800 million." Liu Ziqing said with an exclamation tone: "In fact, since basically all diamonds are more than 10 carats, the final value will definitely rise a lot." ”

More than 10 carats are rare, and in the international market, it is difficult for these diamonds to get a uniform price, and it is entirely up to them to negotiate, and in this regard, Sotheby's is obviously much better than Huang Xuan.

"That's good." Huang Xuan confirmed: "Then I will ask the Union Bank of Switzerland to contact you about the payment, pay attention to safety on the road, do you need to increase security?" ”

"Don't worry, it's all arranged." Liu Ziqing shook hands with Huang Xuan and said, "I won't stay here anymore, I want to send the diamond back to the company immediately." ”

Huang Xuan replied and watched as several people labeled each diamond.

Liu Ziqing and the others said goodbye and left, Huang Xuan just knocked on the table and thought about it, and then said to the air: "Lorraine, call me dad." ”

"Mr. Huang Qunsheng. Good. "Lorraine was quite polite.

Huang Qunsheng's career as a visiting scholar in São Paulo came to an abrupt end, and Huang Jindi's health was not good, so it was inevitable that his mood was a little uncomfortable, but he was a simple person, and he didn't have any emotions, so he stayed at NTU with peace of mind.

When Huang Xuan called, he had just walked out of the laboratory, picked up the phone and said with a smile: "Son, what do you want Dad to do?" ”

"How did you know it must have been for you?" Huang Xuan snorted and said, "I can't greet you." ”

"Excuse me." Huang Qunsheng was not polite at all, walked into his office, closed the door and said, "Aren't you supposed to go to school now?" Why don't we talk about that? ”

Huang Xuan immediately understood the situation, laughed twice, and took the initiative to say: "I want to send money to Nanda and ask you to find a way?" ”

Huang Qunsheng leaned back in the chair, moved his wrist, and said, "Send money?" Do you not want to take the college entrance examination anymore, or do you want to buy a diploma directly? ”

"Can I buy it?"

"What do you say?"

Huang Xuan also knew that he was asking a very stupid question, so he laughed twice and said, "Actually, there is really something, I want to invest in scientific research projects." ”

"Oh?" Huang Qunsheng changed the side of the mobile phone and said, "I just heard you say that you want to develop high-tech yesterday, and now you will do it?" Isn't it a little late? ”

This is completely a teasing of Huang's father's style, Huang Xuan hung his head and accepted it, and then said: "It's difficult to send money now." He said with a sigh and said: "I want to develop some oil well mining equipment and coal excavation, as well as supporting transportation equipment, all using biological materials, such as wood, natural rubber, can only use a small amount of engineering plastics, plastics and other things, try not to use metal, do you think this can be done?" ”

Such equipment is naturally used by Huang Xuan to mine in P210, and the R plane also has it, however, all products related to plane travel that may cause the loss of Nengton are all controlled products in the R plane, and Huang Xuan has no plans to "reveal" his identity at present, and therefore, he can't get anything, and he needs to be self-sufficient.

Huang Qunsheng was very puzzled and said: "What is this environmental protection, it is purely a waste of money, not to mention things like drill bits, it is a derrick, built with wood, and it does not have a two-year lifespan." Although he doesn't learn drilling, but engineering things are also well-understood, and he said dissatisfiedly at this moment: "If you want to hype up a topic, you can also choose a similar one, environmental protection drilling industry, but put the idea on the materials used in drilling, do you think this is a waste of materials?" ”

Huang Xuan modestly said "yes", and said: "I don't really prepare to put it into production, don't think about the drill bit first, first make a shelf, like some necessary device, etc., if you can use these organic products, use organic products, no, let's consider alternatives, step by step, don't worry." ”

Sending 100 kilograms of metal may cost Lorraine $10 million in energy, and if the crude oil mined does not have this value, it is equivalent to working in vain.

Father Huang said funny: "What's the use of you doing this, the price of wood is much more expensive than steel, so it's not environmental protection but a waste, who gave you a bad idea?" It's not high-tech. ”

Huang Xuan was depressed for a while, and he couldn't explain it, so he thought for a long time and said, "Do you think it's okay?" If there is a spare laboratory in the school, they will help me apply for a project, but if NTU does not, ask other schools. In the name of Hexin Industrial, I can invest 10 million US dollars in the early stage, and how about the later? ”

"You have to have an idea for yourself." Huang Qunsheng listened to Huang Xuan's words, and knew that he had thought about it carefully, so he said: "You and your mother discuss more, I will help you ask today and tomorrow." ”

The school's laboratories are always more idle than busy, let alone projects with research funds. Huang Qunsheng was not worried that no one would do it, and before hanging up the phone, he instructed again: "Remember to go to class in the afternoon." ”

Huang Xuan's hand shook, and he hung up the phone with a snap, thinking: I'll get on the plane in the afternoon, who will teach me.
