"Yes, it must be in writing, otherwise we will all withdraw from this auction..."
"They must admit their mistakes, face up to history, and make compensation..."
When it comes to the ability of Chinese people to add insult to injury, they are definitely one of the best. After Zhuang Rui finished speaking, some people immediately began to boo. These people in their forties and fifties were all aroused by Zhuang Rui's words at this moment, and they all expressed their feelings in English.
Come up with your own opinions.
Richard and Daniel looked at each other. They didn't expect that Zhuang Rui's provocative words would make the crowd clamor again. At this time, in their hearts, they wished they could step forward and strangle Zhuang Rui, the scourge, but the most urgent thing now is how to appease him.
These angry Chinese people.
Daniel could not communicate with Richard in public, the two exchanged a look, and Daniel said loudly: "Mr. Zhuang, gentlemen, ladies, friends, your request is reasonable, I want to discuss it with Mr. Chairman
Now, please take a seat. I will give you an answer soon..."
"No problem, please excuse me..."
Zhuang Rui made a gesture of invitation. At this moment, he seemed to be the spokesperson of more than a hundred Chinese people in the conference room. He did it smoothly, and others felt that it should be the same.
After Daniel and Richard left, Huangfu Yun patted Zhuang Rui heavily on the shoulder and said jokingly: "Brother, my work as a lawyer was in vain. You dismissed these two people with just a few words. I see you
If I take the exam to get a lawyer's license, brother, I will beg for food..."
"Brother Huangfu, you are joking. I really rely on you for this matter today. Thank you very much, little brother..."
Zhuang Rui stood up and bowed his hands to everyone around him. Antique shops are very particular about this. Zhuang Rui's behavior also made some narrow-minded people feel much better. Today, he was shot back in vain by this kid.
"What are you talking about? Young people are motivated and what they say is good..."
"Yes, how do young people today know these things? I'm afraid they haven't even heard of the name of the Old Summer Palace..."
"No, that boy of mine only knows how to play cars and games. He is already in his 20s and has no future at all..."
"Who is not? My daughter knows how to buy luxury goods all day long, and she knows how to dress up even when she is young..."
As soon as Zhuang Rui finished speaking, there was a burst of discussion from the crowd, but these words were a bit outrageous. Zhuang Rui almost laughed out loud. The man who has a son at home and the girl are just a couple.
.
"Xiaozhuang, I wonder what kind of business you do in China?"
An old man in his sixties sitting next to Zhuang Rui suddenly asked.
"Zhuang Rui, this is Mr. Liu, who deals in non-ferrous metals in China. The company is very large..." Huangfu Yun on the side introduced Zhuang Rui.
Zhuang Rui stood up quickly, said hello, and said: "Mr. Liu, I do some jade business and opened an antique shop in Panjiayuan. Haha, I can't compare with your predecessors. I only make a living with this small business."
food……"
"Haha, a small business? Not necessarily, a small business can come to the auction in Paris? Young people are terrible, young people are really terrible..."
Mr. Liu smiled and shook his head, somewhat disapproving of Zhuang Rui's words. Among the people sitting here today, which one does not have a net worth of hundreds of millions? If the net worth is less than 100 million, then there is no confidence to sit here.
"Yes, young man, don't be modest. You see, we have worked hard all our lives. At this age, you are very young and energetic. Not bad, very good..."
Zhuang Rui was relatively strange and mysterious in the eyes of the people present. As they started chatting, a group of people gathered around and started talking with Zhuang Rui as the center.
However, there were also some familiar people sitting nearby and chatting. What happened this time was relatively rare and provided them with a lot of topics to talk about.
"Huh? I remember hearing someone say that in recent years, a master of stone gambling has emerged. He is called the Jade King of the North. He is also named Zhuang Rui. Xiaozhuang, is this you?"
Among the rich Chinese people in the venue, there were also jade players. Although they did not gamble on stones, they heard about Zhuang Rui's name and immediately asked about it.
"Haha, you've given me the prize. I don't dare to be the Emerald King. I've only bet on Emerald a few times..."
Zhuang Rui nodded and agreed. These things are all on the surface. Anyone who is willing can find out. There is nothing to hide.
"Old Wang, what's going on? Tell me..."
Most of the people in the venue didn't know about these things, so they immediately grabbed the person who just spoke and asked them.
After the man reported Zhuang Rui's results in stone gambling for more than a year, these people looked at Zhuang Rui a little strangely.
Although they didn't know that Zhuang Rui's grandfather was Mr. Ouyang, they subconsciously thought that Zhuang Rui's ability to come here at such a young age must be due to the elders in the family. However, after hearing what Old Wang said, everyone knew that they dared to admire Zhuang Rui's number.
I have a net worth of 100 million, all earned by myself!
The richer this person is, the more he admires people who are more profitable than him, regardless of age or seniority. For a while, when someone talked to Zhuang Rui, the word "teacher" was added to their title.
Of course, Zhuang Rui also deserves this title. Although these people in the venue have more money than him, there are not many people who are truly proficient in antiques.
Many of the people present here started playing gambling after their business became big and they wanted to pursue some elegant hobbies. Some people even directly regarded antiques as investments.
In short, among the more than 100 bosses who can truly tell the authenticity of antiques, it would be very good to have three or five of them.
"By the way, Huangfu, I received a call from you before and I have some opinions on this auction. Now that Chinese people at home and abroad are here, you might as well say it here..."
Ms. Zhang suddenly said to Huangfu Yun that she was also sad about the loss of domestic cultural relics, but with her current status, it was difficult for her to make certain remarks in public.
"Me? I didn't bring this up, it was Brother Zhuang who meant it..."
After Huangfu Yun was named by Zhang Yongzhen, he was stunned for a moment and immediately pushed Zhuang Rui out. He also noticed that Zhuang Rui didn't usually talk much, but when it came to his ability to incite people, he was really not as good as him.
.
"Huh? Xiaozhuang, is this your opinion? Come on, tell me..."
Zhang Yongzhen wouldn't call her Teacher Zhuang Rui, and Zhuang Rui couldn't afford it. He was from a three-generation prostitute family, and his own background was far behind.
"Okay, then let me tell you..."
Zhuang Rui didn't show any pretense, he let go of the hand he had been holding with Qin Xuanbing and stood up.
"Everyone, I'm a junior in terms of age, and I haven't played for a long time in terms of sex. I'm not qualified to speak here. Since Ms. Zhang named me, I'll just say a few words..."
Zhuang Rui's words made the people who were chatting with each other turn their attention to Zhuang Rui.
"I studied under Uncle De from Zhonghai. When I first entered the industry, the most common saying I heard was that all high-quality Chinese antiques are abroad. I don't need to explain why. Everyone knows it.
The country was weak more than a hundred years ago, and many items left by our ancestors were lost abroad. These accounts cannot be blamed on us, but we have a responsibility to bring back these lost national treasures!
This is also the main reason why everyone can gather together now. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. I am afraid that Ms. Zhang and Mr. Liu came to participate in this auction with this in mind, right?"
Zhuang Rui's words made Ms. Zhang and Mr. Liu nodded slightly. They rushed to Paris to attend the auction after seeing several treasures in the auction catalog. As Zhuang Rui said, they wanted to
The return of a national treasure.
"Although I can barely accept it from an emotional point of view, buying back our country's antiques at a corresponding price, but some foreign auction institutions, in collaboration with the owners, deliberately raise the market price of Chinese artworks.
Many bronzes and national first-level protected cultural relics that cannot be traded in the country have been smuggled abroad by these international speculators, and then sold to everyone here at high prices.
I personally feel that this kind of behavior is plundering us economically after invading with force. Although all of you here are rich and may not care about the 10 or 20 million, this kind of behavior needs to be condemned!
In addition, I would like to explain that the objects we have bought at high prices abroad may not be worth that much when we bring them back to China. Friends who want to invest first, it is better to choose a more rational price, otherwise it may be a failure.
invest……"
Zhuang Rui's resounding words caused everyone to think deeply. They had thought about similar issues before, but no one had ever spoken so clearly and pointed to the essence of the matter.
No one's money comes from strong winds. Needless to say, those capitalists such as Ms. Zhang who really want to buy back cultural relics lost abroad, even those businessmen and bosses who want to speculate and invest, have begun to weigh the pros and cons in their hearts.
coming.
"Xiaozhuang, if we don't bid, we won't be able to buy these things..." Someone in the venue raised an opinion.
Zhuang Rui nodded and said: "Yes, these international speculators are taking advantage of the patriotic mentality of everyone here to speculate on antiques that are not originally worth that high to sky-high prices.
I personally admire your original intention, but I do not agree with this behavior. This will lead to an inflated price of Chinese antiques in the international market and will not be beneficial to the long-term development of this industry.
of……"
After Zhuang Rui said this, the conference room became quiet. The truth of Zhuang Rui's words was very superficial. Everyone understood it, but few people thought about this issue.
