Invincible Chapter 259
Chapter 59 Auction Company
"You kid, I can't understand more and more what you are doing."
Zhou Bo gave a helpless smile, shook his head, took a sip of the coffee in front of him, then looked at Bai Jie sitting beside him and said, "Xiao Jie, you are crazy like this kid. I just can't understand.
Now the small handicraft company here in Berlin obviously
The business is not very prosperous, why do you have to start this business now? And you put all the money from this girl Xiaojie’s dowry into it? I know that it was all money left by Xiaojie’s grandfather to her.
Did you just spend this money like this?
I don’t care about you two anymore. I can tell Xiaojie and her mother about this later. Don’t wait until I return to Chengjin City. Dingbang will settle the account with me and say that I didn’t take good care of you two.”
"Uncle Zhou, don't worry, Ye Zi won't do that kind of loss-making business."
Bai Jie chuckled a few times and said sweetly. After saying that, she gently pinched Ye Huan beside her and muttered in a low voice: "Hey Ye Zi, make money quickly and return my dowry money."
Give it to me. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing for people to have nothing when they get married."
Ye Huan chuckled and whispered mischievously: "It's okay, wife, we are getting married anyway, so I don't dislike you. It doesn't matter what others say, don't you think so?".
"no".
The long-legged and fierce girl glanced at the other party with her round eyes, and whispered angrily: "I won't do it. This is only a once-in-a-lifetime thing, why should I do it so shabby? If I don't have money, forget it.
, Why should I do this if I have money? Let’s imitate other people’s naked marriage? No, huh, I didn’t say I had to marry you, you think it’s very beautiful.”
Zhou Bo didn't pay attention to the flirting of the young couple, and smiled and said: "Xiaojie, you still reassure me? I can't understand everything you do. Just buy a small handicraft company.
Why did you put the name of this company under the names of Yang Hu and others? What are you doing?"
"Oh, Uncle Zhou, I am doing this to give Yang Hu, Wang Fangping and their brothers a reason to stay here in Berlin for a long time to help me take care of some company business. Xiaojie and I can apply to study abroad in Berlin, so that I
Then I can make more trips back and forth between China and Germany.”
"But this?".
Hearing Ye Huan's explanation, Zhou Bo always felt that it was a bit far-fetched. No matter how good the relationship between good brothers is, there is no such a good way. Even if he wanted to help those brothers, just give him a little money, how could he buy it and register the company himself?
It was placed under someone else's name at that time? Isn't this a mess? Besides, what kind of business will Yang Hu and the others do? If you want to hire someone to take care of the company, you should also hire some professional talents, right?
But Zhou Bo had been in contact with the other party for a while, and he also knew that Ye Huan was not a confused person, so he stopped after he had finished speaking, waved his hands with a wry smile, and said: "Forget it, it's your own business anyway.
, I don’t understand you, and I can’t control you.”
Having said this, Zhou Bo paused and then said: "Are you sure you won't go back with me this time? It makes me laugh when I think about it. After you arrived in Berlin with me, in just a few days,
Why do you feel like so many things have happened? You have changed too much?"
Ye Huan smiled silently. At this time, all he said could only be kept in his heart and he could not say anything. Then he smiled and avoided the topic and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhou, you were still at odds with Uncle Chen before.
Did you say you wanted to attend the auction held by Christie’s together? Why can’t you cancel it at the last minute?”
"Where is it? It's not that I can't cancel it. It's because Christie's temporarily canceled the dragon and snake of the Twelve Bronze Beasts of the Old Summer Palace that were said to be exhibited last time for some unknown reason. In addition, the painting "Half-length Court Clothes of Emperor Qianlong" was also canceled.
"Like" has also been withdrawn. Now many people in the country are preparing to go back, why should I stay here? I still have a lot of things waiting for me to do in Chengjin City."
"Haha, so that's it."
Ye Huan said with a smile, gently stirred the coffee cup with a silver spoon a few times, nodded, and said: "Yes, I have read the news these days, and it said that Cai Ming and the others are also here, right?
?This time Christie’s withdraws the exhibits, does it have anything to do with them?”
When Ye Huan mentioned the name Cai Ming, there was a hint of admiration on his face. This man was originally just a small businessman from Xibao Village, Bantou, Yonghe Town, Jinjiang City. He started his career in the handicraft business. Now he is not
But he is the chairman and general manager of Xiamen Xinhe Art Auction Co., Ltd., and is also the collection consultant of the China Special Fund for the Rescue of Sixty Overseas Objects.
In addition, in 2006, the other party made a very shocking move in the Mainland at that time. Cai Ming, as the No. 5 bidder in the special auction of "Buddha's Light Shining - Important Gilt Bronze Buddha from the Early Ming Dynasty", was sold at Sotheby's in Hong Kong.
Compared with the 66 million sold at auction
The "sky-high price" of Hong Kong dollars successfully captured the peerless bronze Buddha "Ming Yongle Gilt Bronze Sakyamuni Buddha Seated Statue", setting a world auction record for Chinese art to date, and at the same time ending the sale of this precious bronze Buddha.
A history that has been floating overseas for many years.
Another commendable move by Cai Ming was on August 5, 2009, at an auction held by Christie's in Paris, France. This handicraft company businessman bid for 490,000 euros for the rat and rabbit of the Twelve Bronze Beasts of the Old Summer Palace. Although afterwards
He refused to pay and did not get the two national treasures, but Ye Huan still felt that this man was worthy of praise.
Because Cai Ming's actions obviously delayed the auction of two of the Twelve Bronze Beasts in the Old Summer Palace. In fact, this was tantamount to announcing that the two beasts would not be auctioned. Of course, Ye Huan also knew that if the objects remained
If someone still insists on auctioning the two beasts, Christie's may choose a time to re-auction the two beasts.
But no matter what, the other party's actions are quite worthy of praise. Ye Huan had privately thought that at the right time, he could get in touch with people like the other party and try to see if there was any possibility of cooperation. He would have it in the future
For money, you can also try to make some contributions to the country's acquisition of lost materials like the other party.
Zhou Bo nodded and said with a smile: "That's right. Not only did Mr. Cai come over, but Director Zhang Yongnian from the mainland also came over personally. Now the mainland attaches great importance to these previously lost items, and the efforts to recover them are becoming more and more intense.
It’s getting bigger.”
Having said this, Zhou Bo gently shook his head and sighed: "I don't know much about the inside story, but I guess it's unlikely to be the reason. I'm afraid these ghost guys in Europe won't be able to buy our account.
But it’s also possible that I’m afraid that they will disrupt the situation.”
Ye Huan nodded. He had seen the name Zhang Yongnian on the news and knew that this was the director of the special fund for rescuing lost overseas objects. At the same time, Ye Huan also understood that with Cai Ming, Zhang Yongnian and others, there was really no way to stop Christie's.
Although the auction behavior can disrupt the situation, it is a temporary solution after all, and there is no way to fundamentally change the properties of the object.
He felt that his pace seemed to be a little faster. The reason why Ye Huan stayed in Berlin for a few days this time and did not return to China with Zhou Bo was because the handicraft and art company he purchased happened to have a batch of goods going to China. Ye Huan wanted to borrow
I took this opportunity to make a bold attempt and try to smuggle a few small and inconspicuous items back to the country to see what the specific customs inspection process is like.
Because it was the first time for such a major event to be carried out, as the protagonist who planned it first-hand, of course he had to stay and carefully observe the details of every step so that he could be well aware of the operation in the future.
"Xiao Huan, you might as well stay, so that we can keep in touch more in the future."
Chen Chang, who had been silent all this time, interrupted and said with a smile, then turned around and slowly looked around the villa for a while, and said with a smile: "I've been living here for a while, and I thought I was leaving soon, but I won't be able to leave in the future."
I can’t come back here anymore. I didn’t expect to buy it for you now. If I want to stay in the suburbs for a few days in the future, can I still come here?”
Ye Huan knew that this villa was moved here after Chen Chang took a fancy to it. Without the other person's original idea, how would he not have the opportunities he has now, so he smiled and said: "Welcome, Uncle Chen, I wish for it."
”.
"Just welcome, then I will come often, just don't bother me then, haha."
Chen Chang joked a little while holding the coffee cup, and then said softly: "Xiao Huan, I have asked someone to help you inquire. The matter you want to know about the auction company can be finalized in the next two days. By then you can
After thinking about it, the price is not high anyway. It is okay to register by yourself, but it is a bit troublesome. I think it is more convenient to take over the small auction company in the hands of others. But if you are not in a hurry, you can save a lot by registering yourself.
The money is real."
Speaking of this, Chen Chang shook his head slightly, and suddenly laughed out loud as if it was a bit unbelievable. After a while, he said: "Bo, why do I think this guy Xiao Huan is the one who has been in Berlin for a long time? What we are doing here
In the past few years, I have never been as capable as this guy, and looking at him, he looks like he is going to do something big."
