The Disintegration Of Mao Xiong: I Am An Oligarch And I Drive An Aircraft Carrier To Go Fishing

But just before the blue cloth covering the crystal cabinet was lifted.

Suddenly, a voice came from the supplier area!

"Sorry, I'm going to cancel the starting price of Lot No. 48!"

Everyone in the venue immediately turned their heads to look at the sound.

And the lighting engineer was also very "knowledgeable" and immediately shifted the spotlight to the person who spoke.

It is Chen Feng!

"What? Canceled the starting bid?"

"Is it okay to do this?"

"That means... 0 francs starting price?"

"Why is that?"

The rich people all looked sideways, looking at Chen Feng in bewilderment.

According to the rules, before the official auction starts, the supplier does have the right to temporarily change the starting bid price, but usually will not do so.

Because it will have a big impact on those rich people!

Especially the operation of canceling the starting price, in fact, there are only two possibilities behind it.

The first one is that because the previous similar products sold too well, I don’t have the confidence to surpass the other party, and I’m afraid that no one will bid in the end and the auction will fail, so it’s better not to set the starting price at all than directly lowering the starting price. , at least it can guarantee that things will be sold, right?

In the past, this kind of operation was not absent in auctions. It was often the new companies who came to participate for the first time. Because their products have not yet experienced the test of the market, and their reputation is far inferior to that of established companies, so they have to Temporary adjustment of hemostasis.

This is also the most likely!

And the second possibility...

It is because the auctioneer has full confidence in his product after the previous auction of similar products, and does not want the starting price to confine the thinking of those rich people, so he simply cancels the starting price and lets them bid freely!

In doing so, there is a slight possibility that the auction will fetch an unimaginable high price beforehand!

Of course, to put it bluntly, canceling the starting price is a kind of coquettish operation of "either super ghost or super god".

But judging from the current situation, basically everyone thinks that Longteng Diamond did this just to avoid "super ghosts".

He Duwang was also confused by Chen Feng's sudden mess at the moment.

Didn't this kid give me a thumbs up just now to show his confidence?

Why did you cancel the starting bid again?

Fortunately, I have been holding back and not making a move. Now you only have 2 pieces behind the 26th lot in the 48th auction, and you suddenly cancel the starting price. Do you want someone from me to return empty-handed this auction?

What Du Wang hates the most in his life is people who talk big. At this moment, his view of Chen Feng has also begun to slowly waver!

However, the moment the blue cloth was lifted...

Accompanied by the high-definition photos on the big screen on the field, as well as the introduction of the MC.

It is only now that everyone knows that Chen Feng canceled the starting bid for this gamble, and there really is a reason for him!

"Lot 48, 'Eternal Beloved' Necklace, from Dragon Diamonds!"

"It uses an extremely rare 212-carat African natural blood diamond as the main raw material, supplemented by 12 South American topaz, a pure platinum chain, and with the craftsmanship of four top Asian craftsmen, it took half a month to craft it! "

"This huge natural blood diamond also happens to be in the shape of a heart, which undoubtedly symbolizes love!"

"I think this should be the best gift you can give your loved ones!

"Of course, the supplier Longteng Diamond just canceled the starting bid for Lot No. 48, other than that, the rules are not any different.

"The auction starts at 0 francs, and there is no price increase limit. Everyone can bid freely!"

1......!

After listening to the introduction of the perfect female emcee, I saw the high-definition photo on the big screen that was so blood red that it was impossible to pick out a trace of impurities.

The buyers off the field suddenly became commotion!

"Blood diamonds! Natural blood diamonds weighing 212 carats!"

"The accessories created by this are really extraordinary!"

"Oh my God, no wonder the vendor temporarily canceled the opening bid!"

"Adornments of this quality, I dare say, will definitely break through the 'luxury diamond necklace' from De Beers!"

"In my opinion, No. 48 may even fetch the highest price in the auction! Although there are 49 and 50 models behind, they are all gold jewelry. Although gold jewelry is expensive, everyone is very clear about the market. But who can figure out the upper limit of this blood diamond necklace?"

"That's right, there are many natural diamonds, but let alone such a large natural blood diamond, even blood diamonds may not appear on the market in the past five years.

The discussion became louder and louder, and even the beautiful emcee had to remind everyone that the auction had already started!

"Dear distinguished guests, the discussion is the discussion, don't forget to bid because of this, and miss the opportunity!"

When she said this, the rich people suddenly woke up and started raising their cards!

And the first bidder directly came to a very high number!

"35 million francs!"

Hearing this number, Chen Feng patted Li Zekai, who was stunned beside him, who was already terrified, and laughed.

"How is it, Richard?"

"You were worried just now that I was too reckless to do so. It seems that everyone has sharp eyes. Isn't this the first one to call for 35 million francs, which is more comfortable than the starting price of 20 million francs we set before?"

Li Zekai said in shock: "This... this is really unbelievable, Ah Feng! You are taking a risk this time, so amazing!"

"Don't worry, there will be higher ones in the future, haha! Look at these stupid rich people bleeding..."

Li Zekai subconsciously nodded in agreement, completely forgetting that Shigekawa himself is also a rich man!

"Forty million francs!"

"48 million francs!"

"I offer 60 million francs!"

With a roar, "The buyers who raised their placards just now subconsciously froze for a moment.

Turning around to look, only to find that this person turned out to be an agent of the English royal family.

"Mr. Tony has offered 60 million francs, is there a higher price?"

The beautiful master of ceremonies looked at it and said with a smile.

This Mr. Tony has the name of several ocean-going trading companies, but in fact, everyone knows that he also has another identity, which is to help the British royal family buy luxury gloves!

The English royal family has taken a fancy to this "eternal love", so is its quality worth mentioning?

Now, Lester's face instantly turned pale!

Just now his "Luxury" necklace was sold at a high price of 53 million francs. He thought he would win today.

But this time, not only has the auction price reached 60 million francs, let alone the end, more importantly, this is Mr. Tony, who represents the English Royal Auction!

Who doesn't know that De Beers has always claimed to be the "Supplier of Diamonds to the Royal Family of England"?

It is not an exaggeration to say that as long as it is a diamond jewelry, whether it is Her Majesty the Queen II, or a prince, prince, or princess, who does not wear De Beers products?

This time you want to buy Longteng Diamond's "Eternal Love" instead of your own company's "Luxury"?

Lester suddenly wanted to die!

60 million francs, what the hell is 60 million francs!

However, the auction is not over yet!

"...

"70 million francs!"

The 60 million francs plus Tony's status have already stunned many people, and many rich people have given up.

But no one expected that at this moment, a yellow-skinned Asian man stood up and raised his sign!

He is the gambling king!

He raised the bid by 10 million francs in one go, and raised the bidding price to a sky-high price of 70 million francs. The purpose is to make others quit and win this "Eternal Love"!

Sure enough, Tony didn't expect that He Gambler suddenly jumped out and directly increased the price by 10 million francs!

This price has already broken through his bottom line!

Tony thought for a while, and finally resisted the urge to raise his cards, because he could clearly feel the opponent's determination from He Gambler's tone and actions.

Even if you add 5 million francs to yourself, I am afraid that the Asian gambling king will give you another 80 million francs. "That would be too painful.

then......

"70 million francs for the first time."

"70 million francs for the second time."

"Are there any VIPs who have bid?"

"Then, 70 million francs for the third time, deal!"

"Congratulations to Mr. He from Omen, who won the auction No. 48, 'Eternal Beloved'!"

So just like that, the auction of Lot No. 48, which temporarily did not set a starting price, finally ended. The shocking ups and downs made everyone deeply remember the name of the Longteng Diamond that produced it.

After everyone has been tossed about in such a crazy way, many people have become less interested because they regret not being able to take pictures of "Eternal Love".

As a result, lots 49 and 50, which were supposed to be the finale, only sold for 47 million francs and 61 million francs respectively, which did not exceed the transaction price of lot 48, which was 70 million francs!

"Eternal Beloved", without any suspense, became the bidder of this year's Paris Global Jewelry Auction!

The on-site auction is over, and the next step is for the buyers who have successfully photographed the lot to submit a check or cash to the official, and then take away the lot.

Of course, there are also some supplier companies that will take this opportunity to hold a press conference. Although this is not a mandatory process, often those suppliers with good performance "will not miss this wave of publicity opportunities.

Dragon Diamond is of course no exception.

Chen Feng originally thought that it would be good to break through 50 million francs, but now he has sold for a sky-high price of 70 million francs, and has become the king of bidders in this Paris Global Jewelry Auction. With his habits, how could he miss such a good pretend? Opportunity?

Chen Feng brought Li Zekai to the press conference until the reporters of many Omi fashion magazines got a little impatient.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

"Because we just went to the official place to receive Mr. He's 70 million franc check, verify the authenticity and perform various procedures, etc., which delayed some time."

"After all, we are a new company, so we don't know the rules, haha."

Chen Feng's opening remarks are always like this Versailles.

"Next, Yinjia can ask questions."

"Today, Longteng Diamond has suddenly emerged and won the bid. What is the future goal of your company?"

"May I ask when Longteng Diamond is going to enter the European market in an all-round way?"

"Africa has never had a record of mining blood diamonds. May I ask which country in Africa did your company mine the blood diamonds?"

"Are you interested in Longteng diamonds in Beimi market? We also have many rich people here!"

"Is this 'Eternal Beloved' really produced in Asia today? Isn't it processed in Europe?"

One by one, the questions are flying like snowflakes!

Judging from this posture, Chen Feng probably won't be able to sleep tonight if he answers one by one individually.

So, he stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said.

"In this way, I simply

Give a thorough introduction, so that everyone's questions can be answered!"

"The first is the source of raw materials. This 212-carat natural blood diamond is indeed from Africa. It was only dug up a month ago in Sierra Leone!"

"Secondly, regarding the processing, I guarantee with the reputation of the company that the entire production process is completed in Xiangjiang. The four craftsmen are all Chinese, and there are no craftsmen from Europe or beautiful countries involved!"

"Finally, a question about future goals and markets.

"Longteng Diamond adheres to the principle of only making high-quality goods. Of course, we will not be satisfied with the Asian market. We are planning to enter the European and beautiful country markets. I will make a plan when I go back.

We plan to see our products in the market soon, please wait and see!"

After speaking, Chen Feng didn't care how the reporters stopped him and wanted to ask questions, so he dragged Li Zekai away from the press conference.

"I said, Ah Feng, it's okay to sit for a while longer. They have so many questions. Wouldn't it be better for us to answer them one by one..."

Back at the hotel, Li Zekai said feeling a little pity.

But Chen Feng just smiled and said, "Richard, you don't understand."

"We deliberately delayed the development of press conference 833 for half a day, just to appease the reporters.

"Then, I just walked away after talking for 5 minutes, further increasing their interest in Dragon Diamond."

"In this way, we can maintain the popularity as much as possible, because with great interest, these reporters will naturally rack their brains to inquire about Long Teng's information, and issue a special report

Isn’t this better than the operation where we take the initiative to find them and still need to pay for advertising?”

In fact, Li Zekai is also very good at business, but he was really too excited just now, and it has something to do with his appearance. Hearing what Chen Feng said, he understood the other party's brilliance.

Playing hard to get.

"Tall, it's really tall!" Li Zekai gave a thumbs up and said again: "However, I saw that Leicester from De Beers had a bad face when he left the auction and treated us

Looks very hostile. "

"After this guy goes back to report, won't De Beers target us?"

In terms of finance or other industries that the Li family is good at, Li Zekai is really an Englishman.

But the diamond business, after all, is a newcomer, and De Beers is the world's largest diamond company. Chen Feng's operation today can be said to have given the other party a big slap in the face.

It made Ji Zekai feel a little nervous.

Unexpectedly, Chen Feng was not polite at all, and said: "What are you afraid of? He is targeting us, so what?"

"Our diamond producing area is in Sierra Leone. Didn't the English here look down on them before?"

"As long as we can guarantee the supply of raw materials, they don't want to use the traditional method of monopolizing the supply of goods to defeat us!"

"What about the market?" Li Zekai felt a little more at ease after hearing this, and then asked again.

"Market? Haha, then don't worry about it." Chen Feng smiled and said, "Buyers are not fools. Today we can sell 70 million francs, but they can only sell 53 million francs."

Ten thousand francs, isn't this the best proof?"

"As for the access plan, don't forget that Longteng Diamond is registered in Xiangjiang."

"Xiangjiang is still an overseas territory of England, can it stop it?"

"Not to mention the beautiful country! This is a luxury product, not an industrial product, so there is no need for negotiation, just follow the rules and pay taxes in the country where it is sold!

Indeed, diamonds are no better than motorcycles, and they can be sold in the market without negotiating with any "so-and-so committee". This thing depends entirely on your own quality!

Compared with the market, Chen Feng thinks that De Beers is more likely to target Sierra Leone, the country of origin.

But even if the other party wants to interfere, Chen Feng is not afraid!

What do EO mercenaries do? They have guns, tanks, and planes! Come here!

At this moment, the phone in the room rang, and after Chen Feng answered a few words, he said to Li Zekai.

"Richard, I'm going to have a chat with Mr. He, you should go to bed earlier."

"okay!"

After leaving the room, Chen Feng went straight to He Duwang's suite.

After the auction ended, he took advantage of the short gap to express his intention to communicate with He Gambler alone. .
