Chapter 307: Catch the ducks and put them on the shelves
"You want me to...be a guest appraiser on the TV station?"
Zhuang Rui was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, and even stammered when he spoke. Although he has a good psychological quality, he has never been on TV since he was a child. When he heard the news suddenly, he thought he heard it wrong.
"That's right, I'm going to the TV station to be a guest appraiser..." Mr. Gu repeated Zhuang Rui's own words.
"No, no, this is absolutely not possible. Uncle, I have been in this business for less than a year. If something goes wrong, it will be a black mark on your face."
Zhuang Rui saw that the old man didn't seem to be joking with him. He shook his head and waved his hands. He had always been flattering to be a low-key person and make money. He had always avoided the limelight of being on TV. It was like being on TV.
When Zhong Hai was injured, the TV station asked for an interview, but Zhuang Rui refused.
The old man looked at Zhuang Rui with a smile and encouraged: "I said you can do it, you can do it. You are young, so you have to be a little aggressive."
"Uncle, aren't you rushing to put things on the shelf? I have never had any experience in appraising objects in front of others. What if I mess up?" Zhuang Rui still refused to agree. This was too unreliable, so he was asked to sit with a group of old men.
When we go to appraise antiques together, he can now imagine how others look at him.
"If you don't do it, you will never have experience. What are you afraid of if you mess up? Old man, I still pay my tuition fees frequently. I can afford to shame this person, but you can't do it?!" Gu Gu saw that Zhuang Rui was not good enough.
He got a little angry and his tone became louder.
"This old man has identified me..."
Zhuang Rui was a little helpless, but when he saw the big red post, he turned his eyes and said, "Uncle, this TV station invited you, it would be inappropriate for me to go instead, right?"
Gu Tianfeng looked at Zhuang Rui with a half-smile but said, "Look at that post. My name is written on it?"
Since Zhuang Rui heard the news, he has been busy evading it. He didn't even look at the invitation letter. He picked it up from the table and opened it. He was speechless. There was really nothing written on the invitation letter.
The details of who to invite were sent to the Jade Association. I hope they can provide a jade identification expert to vigorously cooperate with this on-site treasure identification event.
Moreover, this on-site treasure appraisal event was not held in Beijing, but was jointly organized by Beijing TV Station and Shandong TV Station. The treasure appraisal location was in Jinan, Shandong Province, a famous cultural city with a long history, and the time was the day after tomorrow.
The old man saw Zhuang Rui's face turning red and white, and said with a smile: "It won't take long. We can go back and forth in two days. I won't delay your affairs in Beijing. I will ask Xiaoyun to help you with your affairs in the courtyard."
Just keep an eye on it..."
Well, Zhuang Rui's last excuse was blocked by the old man. In desperation, he could only nodded and said: "I can't go, but uncle, we have so many experts in the Jade Association, why do you just let me do this?"
Are you going to be a novice?"
Zhuang Rui was really a little confused. If something went wrong at the treasure appraisal site, it would be a loss for the Jade Association.
Gu Gu glanced at Zhuang Rui and said: "Xiao Zhuang, you are recommended by me as the director of the Jade Association, and you are also the youngest one here. For many things, the results you achieve will always be stronger than the words you say!
"
Zhuang Rui didn't attach much importance to the identity of the director of the Jade Association. He said with a bitter face: "Uncle, I just have a name in the association."
"You brat, why don't you understand what the old man means? How many more years can I continue to work? Isn't it all your young people's world from now on? Let me tell you..."
The old man looked at Zhuang Rui with a bit of hatred. This stupid boy usually looked very smart, but why couldn't he understand what he meant now? He immediately explained it to him in detail.
After Zhuang Rui heard what the old man said, he finally understood. The old man was helping him build momentum. Although the Jade Association said it was not an official organization, it was an authoritative organization for jade testing in China.
, the certificate issued is recognized by all jewelry companies.
The annual turnover of domestic jade sales reaches tens of billions. If you want to sell it at a high price and be recognized by consumers, you need an appraisal certificate from an appraisal agency affiliated to the Jade Association. This is a big piece of cake, and it is qualified to formulate rules and
The only people who share the results are the thirty or forty directors in the association.
Of course, there are also many people here who are careless, like Song Jun and Zhuang Rui. They don’t even know which direction the Jade Association’s gate opens. The rights of the association are basically controlled by a few directors and deputy directors.
long hand.
But the old man is getting older and is no longer able to handle the activities organized by some associations, so he thought of pushing Zhuang Rui out as his spokesperson. In a few years, when Zhuang Rui is older, he can
Accepting his current position naturally can be considered as helping Zhuang Rui on his horse and giving him a ride.
Although he understood Gu's meaning, Zhuang Rui felt grateful and helpless to the old man. He could feel Gu's unreserved support for him, but to be honest, Zhuang Rui really didn't value the Jade Association very much.
The position of Vice Chairman.
Rights also mean responsibilities. If you really sit in that position, I'm afraid there will be more things to come. Over the past six months, Zhuang Rui's temperament has become a lot more lazy, so let him go back to his nine-to-five job.
He thought he would not be able to bear it if his life force was reduced.
"What's the matter? You don't like the position of director of this association? Are you not interested in the identity of this expert?"
Gu Tianfeng is an experienced man, and he can see Zhuang Rui's thoughts at a glance. He knows that Zhuang Rui is now rich, and he will definitely have such thoughts. It is not just Zhuang Rui, but anyone else will be like this. He himself has great achievements.
With a net worth of 100 million, why bother with so many things? How can you live a happy life?
In addition, Zhuang Rui is not in the industry, so he does not need to bear social responsibilities at all. He only protects his one-third of an acre of land, and there is a jade mine behind him to provide financial support. It seems that Zhuang Rui really does not need to do anything else.
.
Zhuang Rui nodded and admitted frankly that in his opinion, the experts were all old men with gray hair and beards. They seemed to have no relationship with his innocent little virgin who was not yet married. As for the Jade Association's
A piece of cake, given his net worth, is really not that attractive.
Gu Gu was not angry this time, but said with sincerity: "Xiaozhuang, people are social animals, and a person's future development depends entirely on how broad his vision is. Your bets on stones have all gone up.
You may be considered rich now, but can you guarantee that you will be lucky throughout your life?
That is definitely impossible, so you need to enrich yourself. The Jade Association is a training platform. If you can make achievements in this industry, no matter what you do in the future, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
By the way, the Jade Association can make guiding positioning on the price of jade in the market. If you have the right to speak, it will also be beneficial to the development of your Xinjiang jade mine."
The old man's words made Zhuang Rui fall into deep thought. Although the old man did not directly point out that he was a little impetuous, Zhuang Rui felt that he was a little arrogant during this period. After having money in his hands, he put aside many things.
But what should I do if the aura in my eyes disappears?
Moreover, his status as an expert is of great benefit to him without any harm. With this status as a cover, he will not appear so out of the ordinary when he searches for treasures and makes money by betting on stones.
After thinking about this, Zhuang Rui was inexplicably grateful to the old man. He stood up, bowed to the old man, and said: "Uncle, I understand. I will go to this treasure appraisal activity..."
"Haha, just think about it. You can't sit in a well and look at the sky. And gems are not only found in China. In the future, the association will go abroad for exchanges. You can also participate, such as Brazilian emeralds, Sri Lankan sapphires, and South African diamonds.
It belongs to the category of gemstones and is of great value. You still have a lot to learn."
"Uncle, I understand. What's going on with this on-site treasure appraisal? Do you have anything to tell me?"
Zhuang Rui was full of longing for these gems that the old man mentioned. When he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely go to their place of origin to see them. Of course, Zhuang Rui still rushed to pick them up, although the moon abroad may not be as good as
It’s bright at home, but the money you earn abroad must feel great when you spend it.
The old man pondered for a while and said: "You must have no problem with the identification of jadeite, but nephrite is your weakness. When the time comes, you have to look more and talk less. If you don't understand, just say you are not sure. Jade's
There shouldn’t be many appraisals. I heard that you also have research on antique appreciation, so you can also communicate with your colleagues at that time.”
The old man's words made Zhuang Rui laugh. The three words "not sure" are applicable to everyone. Although they are only three words, the meaning is huge. It is understandable that the price is fake.
I say this to save face for you, or you can take it literally. I just can't decide. It's like writing the word "王" upside down. No matter how I say it, I won't show my cowardice.
However, after hearing what the old man said, Zhuang Rui became somewhat interested in this treasure appraisal activity. Among other things, being able to meet some seniors in the antique industry was also a good learning opportunity. Zhuang Rui was very interested in this activity.
The interest in antiques has always been greater than that of jade.
"Why are you hanging around outside the door? Come in and be sneaky."
Mr. Gu suddenly shouted towards the door. As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yun pushed the door open and walked in. He said, "Dad, you have really sharp eyes. Can you spot me like this?"
"In the hearts of you two boys, I'm just a monkey, right? Come on, stop talking to me. If you have anything to say, just tell me..."
The old man couldn't laugh or cry at his son's words. The boy, like Zhuang Rui, was so dumb that he praised the monkey and simply got up and went out to tease his grandson.
