Chapter 113: Pieces of Fine Goods (2nd Update)
Li Dafu is worthy of being the leader of the jewelry industry in Funiu Province, once he agreed to promote Feng Jun, in just one morning, the relevant invitations were sent to the major jewelry stores.
In the following cities, there are also some powerful local jewelry houses, for these peers, Li Tai Fook uses telephone and fax notification, as for the official invitation, it will be delivered later.
In good conscience, this invitation is indeed a bit nondescript, it does not mention the number of jade types auctioned, nor does it introduce the origin and texture, only that there is a large amount of jade for sale, and it seems that it is a temporary jade fair.
Moreover, although it was Li Taifu who sent out the invitation, the venue was in the conference room of Hang Lung, which is strange no matter how you look at it.
After receiving the invitation, many jewelry stores are confused at first, what is going on?
Although Feng Jun sold several pieces of jade in a row, Zhengyang's jewelry industry is too big, and many companies have paid attention to him, but there are also some companies that have never heard of this matter at all.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it, it's all in the jewelry industry, just ask around.
It was only at this time that most of the jewelers reacted, and another strong dragon appeared on the ground of Zheng Yang.
Whether the supply of newcomers is sufficient, everyone is not sure, but the supply of jade is good, which has been recognized and has a reputation.
Of course, the most famous newcomer is that he is not easy to mess with, and he actually directly bars Jubao Zhai, and although his jade is sold to Hang Lung, he has established a very good relationship with Li Dafu, perhaps...... Have a private deal with Li Tai Fook?
In any case, although Feng Jun appeared in the Zhengyang jewelry industry as a newcomer, his appearance was still very imposing, and many experts in the industry could not determine his name, but they were sure that this person deserved the word "strong dragon".
In the major jewelry stores, many of them have their own jade purchase channels, and they are not sure how much supply Feng Jun can provide, and at the same time, this auction is not very formal, and everyone was only notified two days in advance, which is not only in a hurry, but also a bit of a child's play.
Therefore, some jewelry houses do not pay special attention to this auction, not because people do not come, but because the level of people who come is not enough, most of them are jewelry appraisers and the like, the level of appraisal is enough, and the decision can be worse.
Of course, there are also those who are particularly interested in this auction.
The night before the auction, Feng Jun sent eight jade samples to Henglong, and Li Dafu and several other staff members rushed over to watch strongly.
This is all confidence in Feng Jun, so he must get the sample data in advance to arrange the bidding strategy.
Feng Jun did not disappoint them, the eight samples are all jade that has been cut out, not to mention the quality and the like, first of all, the size of these jade materials is not small.
As mentioned earlier, jade is not only based on its appearance, but also on its appearance.
Eight pieces of jade, everyone's eyes are straight, and those who are anxious have begun to figure out which jade they want to take.
Li Dafu's staff relied on the fact that he had a decent relationship with Feng Jun, and asked loudly, "Boss Feng, are other jades also of this grade?"
Feng Jun replied with a smile, "I can't say the same grade, but it's not too much, and I can't take it if it's too bad." ”
As soon as others heard about it, there were still many jade of the same grade, and they surrounded the ground - the price of jade has skyrocketed in recent years, and there are very few fine products such as these eight pieces.
Someone took the opportunity to ask, "Boss, all the jade you have chosen is the right material, what about the ones with a little variegation?"
With variegated jade, most of them will affect the quality, a good jade carving master, will skillfully use those variegated colors, but make the carvings appear more vivid, but it is undeniable that the jade with variegated color is indeed a little worse than the solid color of jade.
However, jade is opened in stone, and the phenomenon of mutual impregnation is inevitable, and a large piece of solid color jade is really rare.
Because the number of solid color jade is scarce, there is a market for variegated jade, especially now, the price of jade can be said to have reached the highest point in history, and variegated jade is also popular.
Many jewelers have also grasped everyone's psychology and vigorously emphasized the natural shape of jade, some of which are just the right variegation, and can be sold at surprisingly high prices.
However, this is just a scarcity of jade, and everyone has no choice but to hype it up like this.
For example, mutton fat jade with tan color was originally impregnated with minerals, but some unscrupulous merchants dared to say that mutton fat jade with this color was a good jade, and it was called sugar color.
But in fact, this color of jade, in the past, was called "dirty jade" - and sugar color, why don't you say color?
What does white jade flawless mean? It refers to pure white sheep fat jade, without flaws!
However, in these years, it is better to buy than to sell, and when encountering customers who belittle the sugar color, the merchant will explain that although the sugar-colored jade seems to be flawed, it is expensive in nature and truth, and the pure white mutton fat jade has a high possibility of counterfeiting.
What is the ...... Although sugar-colored jade can also be fake, it makes logical sense.
I have written so much at length, not only to show how good the solid color jade in Feng Jun's hand is, but also to extend a question, many merchants want to know - how do you deal with your tailings?
You took the solid color jade core, and it was so clean, such a big deal, it is impossible that there is no variegated broken jade around.
What? You don't like those broken jades? You can't look at them, we can see them.
Feng Jun didn't explain so much, just two neat words, "No!"
He can't explain it, how can he explain it? Say that the variegated jade is in tatters in our place, and the walls are not beautiful enough?
Anyway, as soon as these eight pieces of jade appeared, many people were calmed, and everyone had great expectations for tomorrow's auction.
But in the end, there were still three CEOs who got the news late and couldn't come back.
Early the next morning, Feng Jun pulled the remaining nine pieces of jade over and used the Phaeton, which had just arrived.
This time, the difference in the volume of the jade he brought from the mobile phone space was not small, but he still specially controlled it, and did not get the jade that was too big and too small over there, and basically preferred to be in the middle.
There is no way, if you want to talk about large pieces of jade, there are not a lot of them in Zhige Mountain, and Feng Jun doesn't dare to get them.
The two largest pieces of jade he collected, one of which weighed more than 900 kilograms, was immediately close to a ton, and the smaller one was nearly 600 kilograms, and it was all mutton fat jade.
If he dares to get these two pieces, let alone barberry province, the whole country will be alarmed, and the Internet headlines of the day will definitely not run - if there is no moth in the entertainment industry.
On Zhige Mountain, there must be even bigger jade that has not been mined.
As Feng Jun knew, there was a piece of jade weighing more than ten tons, which was being cut, and the other party was already negotiating the price with him, and said that this stone was too big and very troublesome to transport. If the price is not suitable, they may temporarily stop processing.
In short, this batch of jade can be called a piece of fine jade, and since entering this century, Zhengyang City has not seen so many high-quality jade stones at one time, which can be regarded as a record.
The jade is good, and the auction price is also good, and in one morning, eight pieces of jade were auctioned.
This efficiency sounds like a mediocre one, but it is not, because most of the buyer's time is spent on the identification of jade.
The time for each piece of jade to really shout will not exceed five minutes.
All the peers present are very clear about the valuation of jade, and they can also analyze whether the other party has the heart to win through the reaction speed and price of others.
This kind of auction in the form of an order fair generally does not have a too unreasonable price - everyone buys jade, not to show off their wealth, and there is no limited edition statement, it is a pure commercial behavior, and the purpose of buying jade is to sell jade after carving.
Since it is a business, the battle of wills is going to be terrible.
Anyway, there are a lot of jade today, and if you can't buy this one, you can count on the next one.
Of the eight pieces of jade sold in the morning, Li Tai Fook and Hang Lung each auctioned two pieces, which shows that they are still very well prepared.
Li Dafu wanted to make a third piece, but another jewelry company named Mingrui bit very tightly.
In the end, the CEO of this company also came forward to discuss with Li Dafu's staff, "Now the price is a lot higher, it doesn't matter if our private companies spend so much money, but do you state-owned enterprises really dare to spend money indiscriminately, and then sit back and wait for the inspection of the superiors?"
During the auction, this kind of exchange will actually cause the owner to suffer economic losses - once the two sides of the exchange form a consensus and reach a price alliance, it will be difficult for the auction price to rise.
However, Feng Jun didn't care about the private contact between the two.
What he is doing today is not essentially an auction, but more like a jade market where bidding can be made, as long as no one maliciously rigs bids, the low price of the sale is acceptable.
And now the price of this piece of jade has far exceeded his bottom line.
Then, if the two competitors want to negotiate in private, he simply ignores it.
In the end, it was Mingrui Company that auctioned this piece of jade, in the words of the company's CEO, they still have a lot of jade in reserve, but the green jade is out of stock, so they can only transfer goods everywhere, and if the jewelry line is not complete, it will damage the company's reputation.
So, they can afford to pay a little bit higher.
And Li Dafu can't shout price without restrictions, they still take cost control very seriously.
At noon, everyone went to Hang Lung's cafeteria to have a casual buffet, and then came to the scene to continue the fight.
The eight pieces of jade in the morning, Hang Lung and Li Tai Fook combined, accounted for half of the country, which could already be satisfied, but other jewelry stores did not expect that Hang Lung's quotation in the afternoon was still aggressive.
