After dinner, Zhu Feng followed Chen Ran to the manor.
If the involvement of Chen Ran and his brother-in-law had not been brought up, in order not to implicate Chen Ran, Zhu Feng would naturally not move in with Chen Ran, but after knowing this, he still insisted not to move in with Chen Ran.
If he wanted to move here, he would obviously have to consider whether Chen Ran would think that he was not moving here to distance himself from Chen Ran.
After arriving at the manor and looking around, he changed his mind and immediately moved here from the holiday village arranged by his friend.
Naturally, he did not need to take part in the moving matter himself. He could just arrange for his subordinates to bring the luggage over, and he went to the venue with Chen Ran and Wu Laosan.
In the following time, Chen Ran speeded up his reading of the materials, and in the morning of the next day he read through all the materials on the market.
Chen Ran not only read through all the materials on the public sale, but also looked over all the gems on the public sale held at the Gemstone Trading Center.
In addition to being famous for jade, Myanmar is also famous for gemstones. It is one of the top five "Gemstone Countries" in the world.
Myanmar is located in Southeast Asia, at the collision boundary between the Eurasian Plate and the Indian Ocean Plate. Strong geological activities since ancient times have contributed to Myanmar’s status as a rich producer of jewelry in the world today. Among the top colors of sapphires are royal blue, and the top colors of rubies.
——Pigeonblood is produced in this country, so the national stone of Myanmar is also designated as ruby.
Myanmar’s rubies are the best in the world, and Myanmar is also the place that produces the most high-quality sapphires in the world.
When Myanmar holds a jadeite public sale, it often holds a gemstone public sale at the same time. However, compared to the jadeite public sale, the gemstone public sale is much smaller. It is estimated that it is not even one-tenth of the jadeite public sale.
.
This point is mainly related to the fact that the love of gems in the East is far less than that in Europe. However, in recent years, influenced by Western fashion elements, the gem market has gradually become popular in China, especially high-end products, which have become popular among the rich.
The vying for treasures, especially those female celebrities who are rich and wealthy, seems to be too embarrassed to go out and meet people without wearing one.
The "DreamWorks" brand owned by Chen Ran Jinyuxuan Jewelry Company is a jewelry brand focusing on diamonds and various high-end gemstones.
There are several gem markets in Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar, but the gem auction is held at the Gem Trading Center, which is just a few steps away from the jade auction venue.
Ruby and sapphire are also divided into loose stones and rough stones. In fact, in the early days, there were no rough stones, they were all bare stones. Later, Myanmar apparently took advantage of the jadeite rough stones and turned the gems into rough stones.
In the past few years, things were better. Most of the bare stones at trade fairs were traded, and only a small part were traded as rough stones. However, as the gem market has become hot in recent years, the share of rough stones at trade fairs has also increased.
.
Now rough stones account for a large share.
After all, the gem auction was not large in scale. It took Chen Ran two hours to read it all. Just like the jade auction, he wrote down the numbers of the rough stones he planned to sell while watching.
Among the raw stone numbers that Chen Ran wrote down, there are about ten or twenty sapphires that reach the color of bright sky blue without impurities, and two of them have even entered the top color of sapphires, that is, they have reached "royal blue"
The quality of.
Ruby does not reach the level of "pigeon blood red", but this is normal. Rubies of this color are extremely rare. Although it is not a legendary color, it is still extremely rare.
Although there is no such color as "pigeon blood red", Chen Ran found many pink rubies. Pink rubies are also top-quality rubies.
Peach rubies, as the name suggests, are as gorgeous as peach blossoms, extremely beautiful and moving.
This is also a very famous ruby from Myanmar.
Chen Ran also discovered a lot of star rubies. Although the color of star rubies is not as good as "pigeon blood red" gems or pink rubies, it has a very significant feature, which is, as its name says, you can see to the starlight within.
After cutting and processing, three beams of six-ray starlight can be seen in ground rubies. This color effect is called the starlight effect, which is caused by the light reflected from the fine rutile needle-like inclusions, because the needle-like rutile inside the ruby Arranged parallel to the crystal surface.
Chen Ran has gained a lot from the gem market, and his gains from the jade market are naturally even greater, but it is obviously too early to talk about the harvest at this time.
Now I can only say that I have discovered these good things. It is obviously hard to say whether I will be able to get these good things in my hands in the end.
The time has quickly arrived on the fourth day of the public sale.
The first three days are for bid viewing, and the bidding begins on the fourth day. With so much wool on the public auction, it is naturally impossible to bid all together. Instead, it is divided into sections according to the numbers, and a part is released every day until the end of the public auction.
Chen Ran, Zhu Feng and the others rushed to the venue early in the morning. Although they arrived very early, compared with the flow of people waiting in line to enter the venue, it was obvious that they did not arrive at all early.
Although there were many people in the venue a few days ago, it felt sparse compared to the empty venue. It didn't seem like there were too many people, but today... there are people almost everywhere, especially at the entrance to the venue. Well, there was a huge crowd, and everyone was almost squeezing in. Fortunately, it rained a few times yesterday afternoon and night and the weather was much cooler, otherwise it would have been really hot.
Compared with the previous three days, the security in the venue was obviously much tighter. There were almost three posts per post, and they were all soldiers with loaded weapons.
"Brother, don't go there. I'll take care of the bidding list."
Chen Ran and the others entered the venue before they bought the bids. Zhu Feng patted the leather bag in the hands of the bodyguard who was following him and said to Chen Ran as if I have more money than anyone can take it from me.
"Brother Feng, we need quite a few bids." Chen Ran reminded him because he was afraid that he would not buy enough.
"Needless to say, is 10,000 enough?" Zhu Feng directly reported the number of 10,000. He already knew that Chen Ran had brought 800 million euros to participate in the public offering, and he himself had prepared 100 million. In addition, Wu Laosan also has 50 million euros. The number of bids required for such a large amount of funds is naturally not a small number.
Since there were people around at the entrance of the venue, as soon as he said these words, several people who were standing next to them and talking looked over. Although everyone bought a lot of the bidding list, this guy was too exaggerated. Alright.
"Brother Feng, you want to carry it with a sack." Chen Ran rolled his eyes, and then said, "Buy three or four thousand sheets first, and then buy them later if they are not enough."
"Let's buy 5,000 tickets first." Zhu Feng didn't want to go to that trouble. Anyway, he had as many bodyguards as he could carry.
Chen Ran nodded, and then Zhu Feng led his bodyguard to buy the bids. Zhang Shuchun, who arrived yesterday, also followed to help, while Chen Ran led the others to a less crowded place to wait.
As soon as they left, the people who heard their conversation started talking.
"Who is this?"
"I've never seen him before. He doesn't look like an insider."
"It must be someone else's prodigal son. Alas, the market is not good to begin with and they mess with it like this..."
"Yeah, you said they didn't know how to join in, and in the end the advantage was taken by Myanmar."
…
"President, you haven't bought the bid list yet?" Huang Shangping and Zhongyu, who had just met an acquaintance and said a few words, came over a step late. They came to Chen Ran and saw Zhu Feng leading the people to buy the bid list.
The window said unexpectedly.
Along with Chen Ran came not only Zhu Feng, Wu Laosan, Zhang Shuchun, but also Huang Shangping, Zhongyu, and Buyi Dayun, who was attracted by Zhang Shuchun. They were all people Chen Ran knew well in the Tianzhong Jade Association.
When Zhang Shuchun arrived in Naypyit, he naturally lived with Chen Ran directly, and then Huang Shang and the other three also moved in. It is now the period of the Great Discount in Myanmar, and no one cares about the accommodation problem, which is not easy to solve. Huang Shang and Heping Zhongyu only lived in a hotel before.
You can't live in a small hotel. Even in such a hotel, the two of you only occupy one room.
Although the two of them are not rich people, they still have hundreds of millions of assets. Naturally, they did not stay in a hotel because they could not afford it. It was just that when the two of them booked a room, all the hotels were full, so they still contacted this small hotel.
The agent helped me find it.
Compared to the two of them, Mai Dayun lived in a better place. Mai Dayun was in the woolen fabric business, and he often traveled to Myanmar and had some connections here.
The hotel where Huang and Shang stayed only had fans and no air conditioning, which made them very hot. After Chen Ran learned about their situation, he asked them to move to the manor. Anyway, there were many free rooms in the manor.
"Those who haven't bought it yet, since we can only bid today, it's a good time to buy now and invest now." Chen Ran said with a smile.
Although the secret bidding begins on the fourth day after the public market opens, the bid sheets can be purchased on the first day. Generally, jewelers fill out the bid sheets the day before they start bidding, and are waiting to directly bid today.
Just put it in the bid box.
Of course Chen Ran didn't forget to buy it, but he wanted to look at other people's bids first and then fill them out. In that case, why buy so early and have to carry it back and forth? You must know that the bid form he needs is not
Small amount.
Huang Shangping and Zhongyu were both speechless after hearing this. How could an ordinary jeweler like Chen Ran do this? Which jeweler would not choose carefully and then make a decision and fill out the bid form the day before. After all, the first
The two-day bidding time is too tight.
Chen Ran looked at the briefcases they were carrying and asked, "Have all your forms been filled out?"
"We have filled out all the materials we chose before, but the materials we chose are not on the list you recommended to us, President, so we have to fill them out again, but we have a spare part of the bidding form and have already filled out part of it..." Huang
Shang said with a wry smile.
"Two pieces of wool I chose were on the list recommended to me by the president. I filled them all according to the wool materials on the president's list..." Buy Dayun said with a smile.
"Just because it's not on the list given to you doesn't mean that the piece of wool hasn't been selected. With so many of us, we can't bid for a piece of wool. If it's not on your list, it might be on someone else's list."
Chen Ran heard this and said that after Zhang Shuchun came yesterday, he asked Zhang Shuchun to invite the members of the Tianzhong Jade Association to participate in the public sale to have dinner together. Anyway, he is still the president of the Tianzhong Jade Association, but
However, we only contacted Huang Shang, Heping Zhongyu and Buying Dayun. After all, the Tianzhong Jade Association does not have enough influence. Although it has a great influence on the city's jewelry industry, it has little influence outside, let alone now.
When we arrived in Myanmar, only Nandu Jade Association, Pingzhou Jade Association, Tengchong Jade Association and other well-known associations could give face to outsiders wherever they went.
Being too embarrassed to speak outside, the members of the Jade Association in Tianzhong City would naturally not contact their local Jade Association when they came to participate in the auction. Because Tianzhong City is close to the Nandu Jade Association, many members follow Nandu Jade.
We came together with the association.
Except for Huang Shangmai and others who were acquainted with each other and were friends, Zhang Shuchun didn't even know who was coming to participate in the public sale. Plus, it was inconvenient to contact Myanmar, so he couldn't contact other people.
Huang Shangping and Zhongyu all know that Zhang Shuchun made a fortune gambling on stones when he was in Tengchong. When talking about it, Zhang Shuchun naturally said something about how powerful Chen Ran was in gambling on stones.
Chen Ran had already thought about helping Huang Shang and others choose some materials, so he did not stop Zhang Shuchun and even told Zhang Shuchun about his plan in advance.
Only then did Huang Shangping Zhongyu realize that Chen Ran had helped Zhang Shuchun select the materials for his stone bet, and Chen Ran had not only helped Zhang Shuchun select materials that had increased in price, but also helped other people select materials that had increased in price.
As he started talking, Zhu Feng also explained the things on the gambling board.
Huang Shangping and Zhongyu were dumbfounded when they heard this, but they were not surprised at all by Buying Dayun. Zhang Shuchun and Buying Dayun were inseparable, and Zhang Shuchun had obviously already secretly talked to Buying Dayun.
Next, the two people looked at Chen Ran with different eyes. Although they had ideas in their minds, they were not very familiar with Chen Ran, so they were too embarrassed to speak.
Upon seeing this, Chen Ran told them that if they believed in him, he could recommend some to them.
Of course, Chen Ran also made a request to them not to tell anyone else.
Last night, Chen Ran gave them a list alone.
…
After saying that, seeing many people around him paying attention, Chen Ran reminded them: "Don't talk about the things on the list outside."
Huang Shangping, Zhongyu Buying and Universiade, both understood and nodded.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the door. When I turned around, I saw a group of powerful people walking in from the door. As they arrived, the crowd at the door couldn't help but
Those who knew him stepped forward to say hello, while those who didn't knew him stood aside and looked at him with envy.
"It's from Guangdong." Wu Laosan, who had been standing next to Chen Ran silently, suddenly frowned and spoke.
"People from the Pingzhou Jade Association of the Guangdong Jewelry Association." Huang Shang also knew that Chen Ran didn't know many people in the industry, and after hearing what Wu Laosan said, he also introduced him to Chen Ran.
