Chapter 401: [On the idea of a private museum]
Since the seaside bonfire party is going to be held, of course, a large-scale bonfire barbecue, so Yang Yong ordered more than 100 pine wood bonfires with a diameter of more than one meter stacked on the 1-kilometer-long white beach.
Then, a large bonfire with a diameter of more than ten meters was played in the center. The sky just darkened, and Yang Yong ordered all the more than 100 bonfires to be lit. The whole beach is illuminated like daytime, and the wood used in these bonfires are all pine trees, and the barbecue grilled with the fragrance of pine trees is particularly delicious and not greasy.
After the bonfire is lit, brisk light music is played, and the atmosphere is delicious. At this time, the chef will use charcoal made of apple wood on the grill, and then grill seafood and meat on it. In order to make all the servants play more easily and happier, Yang Yong even ordered the food and drink to be opened. There were no masters and servants at the bonfire party, only the happy crowd danced to the music. Beer and cocktails in hand, laughter everywhere, tired dancing, tired playing and classic barbecue waiting for everyone.
It is rare to have such a leisurely time, so after the hostess of the Yang family handed over the two children to Yang Yong, she ran into the crowd and twisted to the relaxed and happy music. There are laughter and laughter everywhere, the air is filled with the aroma of wine and barbecue, which is intoxicating, and the cool sea breeze of more than 20 degrees makes people feel particularly comfortable. A bonfire party lasted for more than two hours, and then slowly ended. The two hostess finally remembered that the third generation of the Yang family was struggling in the arms of Yang Yong, an unreliable father.
Enough to play, skip it, and after eating and drinking, the exhaustion from the long journey for several days immediately came up, and the family returned to the bedroom of Anna Castle with a sigh of relief. But Yang Yong was lying on the reclining chair with a glass of whisky with ice cubes in his place, facing the sea and sitting next to Butler James. The two were talking to each other about something important. Suddenly Yang Yong exclaimed.
"Are you telling the truth? I didn't expect to make more than $250 million for the Natural History Museum in just over two months."
Butler James nodded earnestly and said, "That's right, sir, because after the National Museum of Natural History signed a contract for the rental and sale of gold artworks with our Yang family, I began to pay attention to the Museum of Natural History."
"Using our family's gold artworks to hold special exhibitions, the income from tickets and related industries will definitely not be less than 250 million US dollars. It is still a conservative estimate. I really did not expect so much profit in just over two months. It is incredible. already."
Yang Yong sat up straight and asked Steward James seriously, "How much is the ticket revenue for these special exhibitions of gold artworks? How much is the daily workload? Are the sales of derivatives really that popular?"
Yang Yong asked too much data, James butler had no choice but to open his portable notebook, and then looked inside and introduced to Yang Yong. "Sir, the National Museum of Natural History exposes exhibitions in Washington, D.C., and special exhibitions in major cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Boston, and Richmond, and the ticket is a flat price for adults over the age of 18. The ticket is $25 ."
"The ticket price for minors under the age of 18 is 15 dollars, and the ticket price for seniors over 60 years old is 15 dollars. In addition, there are reports from major media, and the income from gold art miniature souvenirs is added together. Definitely not less than 250 million US dollars, it seems that the Natural History Museum has made a lot of money on our Yang family."
Hearing this, Yang Yong silently calculated the National Museum of Natural History in his heart, and then said in surprise. "We leased to the Natural History Museum are some relatively common gold works of art, most of them are some household utensils, or those unpractical weapons of the honor guard, I didn't expect it to have such a big sensational effect, and the sales of its derived souvenirs It's really surprising that it's so popular."
Butler James moved slightly, then turned around and took his purse on the reclining chair to open it, mysteriously took out a small box and handed it to Yang Yong and said with a smile. "Sir, take a look! That's a souvenir derived from the gold artwork I sent someone to buy."
Yang Yong opened the box curiously and immediately made Yang Yong laugh. Inside was a 10-centimeter-long spoon that was golden and gleaming. When he weighed it with his hand, Yang Yong knew that it was a gilded spoon made of sterling silver. , the weight is about ten grams, if the price of precious metals is really counted, it will not exceed ten dollars.
But the label on the box clearly states that this sterling silver and gilt spoon actually sells for $88? After the cost, processing fee, transportation fee, etc., the real income will not be less than sixty dollars. This is just a 100:1 replica of a gold artwork that can be sold for such a price, a small spoon income Sixty dollars is faster than robbing a bank.
Yang Yong played with the small spoon in his hand for a while and asked the housekeeper James, "James, this spoon is 100:1 with the original contemporary art. Are these only household utensils turned into souvenirs? Those weapons made of gold, or Do other art films have these derived memorabilia?"
Butler James nodded with a wry smile and said, "Sir, I'll tell you the truth, there are thousands of handicrafts made according to real works of art, and each one is made of sterling silver and gilt, and the price is between $50 and $50. Three hundred dollars."
"There are large and small, but the workmanship is very ingenious. It is only a different proportion of size from the original artwork, and these souvenirs are selling extremely well. The National Museum of Natural History seems to be really hiding dragons and crouching tigers. It is really practical to see these derivative souvenirs. And a novel idea."
Yang Yong put the spoon in the box, then took a few cigars and threw them to James. He lit one and smoked it slowly, then lay on the chair and looked at the starry night sky and said in a low voice.
"The National Museum of Natural History has spent so much? From the fact that our Yang family rented the gold right-hand side and took out so much insurance. If you don't make a little money, you will lose money. It seems that the National Museum of Natural History has a very Great marketing experts advise them.”
Butler James nodded earnestly and said, "Sir, you're right, the National Museum of Natural History has a marketing expert who is in charge of the museum's marketing team, and this person is very powerful. Although he can't turn a stone into gold, he can rely on the power of Dongfeng. Let the country naturally fight a beautiful turnaround, and it can still be done.”
Yang Yong sat up with a smile on his face, picked up the wine glass on the coffee table and drank it, and then said with a sigh of relief and a smile. "When the National Museum of Natural History first approached me and offered to rent our gold artwork for exhibition, a very unrealistic idea popped into my head."
"It's just that I didn't get it on the table to discuss with you high-level officials. It seems that this absurd idea should be put into practice now. Otherwise, the economic income of these gold works of art can reach more than 1 billion US dollars, and it is a lucrative business. If you don’t do it, it will be cheaper for others.”
