Yun Feiyang took out a large, beautifully packaged box from his bag and gently placed it in front of Master Jin without explaining what was inside.
Master Jin didn't ask. Although he didn't know what kind of jewelry was inside, he was sure it was a rare treasure.
When the layers of interlining were opened, nine huge black pearls with a charming halo were revealed in front of the three people.
Master Jin's eyes were very vicious, and he could determine the quality of these nine pearls almost at a glance. Especially the largest one, the golden Buddha statue on it immediately attracted his attention.
"The uncanny craftsmanship of nature is better than the ingenious carvings of man. This is really a natural miracle, a miracle that cannot be copied. It is hard to imagine that such a lifelike golden Buddha statue on the lotus platform is actually the handiwork of nature." Master Jin was shocked again.
"Master Jin, after you have finished appraising it, please let me taste it too." Peter's eyes glowed with gold, eager to give it a try.
Because there were nine pearls, the appraisal took a long time and lasted for more than half an hour. Peter did the work on the side and also appreciated them in an all-round way.
When Master Jin finished the appraisal certificate and signed it, the appraisal work of these two pieces of jewelry was finally completed.
"Master Jin, you are the authority in jewelry appraisal. Please estimate the price of these two pieces of jewelry." Yun Feiyang said.
"The pigeon blood red diamond weighs 24.36 carats. It is of flawless quality and the most ideal cut. It is a pure pigeon blood red that has never been seen before. It is the only one in the world. There is no price standard. It is recommended that the starting price be set at 100 million meters of gold. The specific transaction price should be
It will not be less than 200 million meters of gold. If there are heavyweights competing, it may be sold at a sky-high price, because it is the only diamond in the world that is worthy of any price." Master Jin made the most professional conclusion about the pigeon blood red diamond.
"Nine black pearls, perfect round balls, the thickness of the mother-of-pearl layer is 1 mm, the halo is rich and soft, the diameter of eight is 35 mm, and the other is 40 mm. There is a golden Buddha statue on the lotus platform on the surface of the pearl body. It is naturally generated, peaceful and safe.
, lifelike. None of the nine pearls have any acquired processing, and can be used as necklaces, rosary beads or other Buddhist instruments. So far, the world's largest round black pearls, nine superimposed, are even more rare. The natural lotus platform golden Buddha statue is naturally generated.
A world wonder, the only one in the world, it can be a sacred object of Buddhism. The recommended starting price is 300 million meters of gold, and the actual transaction price should be no less than 600 million meters of gold. It is recommended to invite Buddhist believers to create momentum. If it can be recognized as a sacred object of Buddhism
, then it will definitely be auctioned for a price that is not blasphemous."
"Master Jin's conclusion is really to the point. The black pearl of the golden Buddha statue on the lotus platform must create momentum, and it must be qualified as a Buddhist holy object. I will plan this matter well." Xu Xianming is very confident in his professional work.
"We at Sotheby's will definitely plan the auction of these two rare treasures and dig out their maximum value. I wonder if Mr. Yun has any special requirements?" Xu Xianming asked.
"I have two requirements. The first requirement is that I am in urgent need of capital turnover, so Sotheby's must pay me a large amount of pre-sale money in advance." Yun Feiyang's tone was firm, and it seemed that there was no room for doubt.
"Mr. Yun, we at Sotheby's have not had such a precedent. Since your two treasures are indeed extremely precious, I can make an exception and advance you a sum of funds, but the funds will not exceed 100 million Chinese dollars. This is what I can do
The biggest concession we can make." Xu Xianming's tone was sincere, but also firm.
"How long will it take from now to the end of the auction?" Yun Feiyang seemed to ask an unrelated question.
"The auction of these two pieces of jewelry requires all-round publicity and hype, and it will take a month at the earliest."
"If your company really can't come up with this money, can you help me contact a bank and help me get a loan using these two pieces of jewelry or your Sotheby's reputation as collateral?"
"Mr. Yun, you win. This is a good idea. You can get a loan and Sotheby's won't lose anything. I can promise you this. What is the amount of the loan you need?"
"Then five hundred million meters of gold, and the time should be faster. It should be fine, right?"
"I think it should be possible. It will take three days at the earliest. But as soon as the buyer's money is received, we will transfer it directly to the bank." Xu Xianming thought for a while and said.
"My second request is: I must enjoy special terms. I think two such precious rare treasures have such qualifications." Yun Feiyang's tone left no room for doubt.
"What specific special terms are they?"
"I require that the overall commission rate shall not exceed 4%."
"Mr. Yun, your request is too much. Our rule is that if the transaction price of a single piece exceeds 100 million meters, we will take a 10% commission. This is the latest rule this year. I can apply to the headquarters for a 9% commission, but
I don’t guarantee that the headquarters will definitely agree. You have to know that it will cost us a lot to promote these two rare treasures of yours.”
"Auction houses will never mind spending too much money to promote rare treasures, because this will attract you to more and more top collectors and dealers around the world, and you can also use this to attract more,
For higher-end auction items, your gains will definitely exceed your efforts, otherwise, President Xu, you will not be qualified."
Yun Feiyang paused for a moment, seeing that Xu Xianming had no intention of refuting immediately, and continued: "As for the so-called 100 million meters of gold or more stipulated by your company, that's because you haven't encountered a transaction price of 500 million meters of gold or 1 billion.
For rice gold auctions, the two price ranges of 500 million meters of gold and 1 billion meters of gold are worthy of your re-regulation. I can accept the commission of 4% for one billion meters of gold and 5% for 500 million meters of gold."
"Mr. Yun, I can ask the headquarters for instructions on the re-definition of the two price ranges of 500 million and 100 million that you mentioned, but the premise is that the transaction price of a single lot cannot be added together."
"You must consider that my two lots are extremely special. Their audiences are very different. This can increase the appeal of the auction. The sensational effect of promoting the two lots at the same time is huge, so I request this
The transaction prices of the two lots must be added together to calculate the commission.”
"I can't agree to your request for commission. This is too embarrassing for me. I need to ask the headquarters for instructions before I reply to you." Xu Xianming looked confused. He didn't expect that Yun Feiyang was so young but so experienced that he actually took advantage of it.
Less than a little advantage.
"President Xu, just ask the headquarters for instructions. I am here to chat with Feiyang. I hope you two can reach an understanding as soon as possible so that we can continue chatting." Jin Guangren has long been eyeing the three carvings worn by Yun Feiyang, but professional
He had no choice but to endure it for the time being, otherwise if he started appreciating such rare jewelry, he might not be able to work anymore.
The three of them all have a high level of appreciation, and the atmosphere is very good when talking and speculating.
Half an hour later, Xu Xianming received new authorization from the headquarters, and the two began a new round of negotiations.
The two argued again, and finally the overall commission ratio was determined as: 6% for a total transaction price of more than 500 million meters of gold, and 5% for a total transaction price of more than 1 billion meters of gold.
The two quickly signed the latest auction contract.
"Feiyang, please quickly take off your three accessories and show them to me for appreciation. My eyes are red waiting for you, old man. If you don't show them to me, I really won't even be able to talk anymore."
