After hanging up the phone, Chen Ran frowned. Director Yang called and said two things. One was that a patient might need his treatment to prepare him. Naturally, there was nothing to say about this matter.
General Xia and the others put him in the high position of deputy director of the General Staff Office, didn't they value his "medical skills"? He had already been mentally prepared for such a thing, so there was nothing objectionable about it, not to mention that Chief Yang also said this
The patient is a senior member of the Myanmar military government. Treating the patient will not delay his own affairs. If the patient is cured, his benefits will certainly not be lost.
Whether it was for business or personal reasons, he obviously had no reason to refuse.
Of course, Director Yang used the word "maybe", which means that he may be asked to take action, or he may not say anything at all.
What made Chen Ran frown was the second thing Chief Yang told him. He said that the Overseas Branch of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff had monitored someone offering a high price of one million US dollars for his life.
Chen Ran frowned, not wondering if a killer would come to kill him, but wondering who was paying to kill him.
Normally, he should have thought that it was Song Yiming at the first time, but he did not think so, because if it was Song Yiming, then Song Yiming would be too simple. With Song Yiming's identity and status, it should be easy to find out where he is.
The position of the General Staff, knowing his position in the General Staff and using such means to deal with him, would be too brainless.
Even if the other party had the intention to assassinate him, he would only send people to do it secretly. How could he spend money to hire an assassin in such a big way?
But if it weren't for Song Yiming, who else would pay to kill him and have a problem with him... Zhang Hongjun is still in Hulao, and Director Yang has already launched an attack. Whether it is Zhang Hongjun himself or the people behind him, it is impossible to protect themselves at this time.
It was too late, so how could you attack him in this situation?
Chen Ran thought about it and put the matter aside for the time being. Chief Yang told him that this matter was not to prevent him from taking over the assassination mission, but just to remind him to let him know that someone was spending money.
They just hired a killer to assassinate him. The killer organization that released the mission was monitored by the Ministry of Intelligence as soon as it released the mission. Then the ministry hacked the other party's release platform and first canceled the mission, and then set a deadline for the other party.
The order requires the other party to cancel the task within half an hour. There are also killers within the killer organization, so just canceling the task on the publishing platform is not enough.
The other party is given a deadline of half an hour to cancel the task and resolve all subsequent problems caused by issuing this task. Otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences. You will be responsible for the consequences. Two secret strongholds of the organization will also be sent.
This killer organization obviously does not know Chen Ran's identity in the General Staff, otherwise they would not issue such a mission anyway. They dare to issue a mission to assassinate a certain government official, and they also dare to issue an assassination mission to assassinate the president of an African country or a general.
They even dared to issue a mission to assassinate US President Obama, but they would never dare to provoke such intelligence organizations as the CIA and MI6.
In their eyes, Chinese agents are even more terrifying than the CIA and MI6 of the United Kingdom. The only way they can survive in their profession is to be secretive. Even the Americans are afraid of the penetration ability of Chinese agents, not to mention that they are so shady and have no government behind them.
The killer organization that supports them, if you want to kill them, you don't even need to take action, you just need to expose their secret stronghold...
As a result, Director Yang told him directly about the killer so that he didn't have to worry that the department had handled it in a timely manner and no killer had taken over the task. When he told him about the matter, the killer organization had already responded.
According to Director Yang, what the killer organization is worried about at this time is not that it cannot complete the mission, but that there will be no problems with his safety during this period of time.
If there is a problem with his safety during this period, then the killer organization...
Although Chen Ran is not afraid of a killer coming to kill him, he is naturally happy to eliminate the threat in this way. After all, the key to him is to find the person who paid for the murder, rather than spending time to deal with it.
A killer sent by this killer organization.
…
After hanging up the phone call from Mr. Yang, Chen Ran and the others returned to the Jade Public Offering Venue. In the morning it was the time for secret bidding, and between three and five o'clock in the afternoon it was the time for open bidding. Although Chen Ran didn't choose the material for the open bidding,
It was a lot, but some of it, more than twenty pieces, were the materials he promised to get.
There were even three pieces of glass material inside, but he didn't find many pieces of glass in the entire jadeite plate.
Although the other twenty pieces are not made of glass, they are basically high-end materials with high ice, high water and high waxy varieties.
"Brother!" The open bidding was on the floor of the trading center. When Chen Ran and his group arrived at the door, they saw Fatty Chang waiting here. When they saw Chen Ran and his group, Fatty Chang greeted them enthusiastically.
"Brother Chang, you've changed a lot since I haven't seen you for a few months. I almost didn't recognize you." What Chen Ran said was not false at all. He really almost didn't recognize Fatty Chang. In the past few months, he has
Chang Fatty has changed a lot, and Chang Fatty has also changed a lot. In the past, Chang Fatty asked others to call him Chang Fatty, but in fact he was just a little fatter, and it was not enough to call him Fatty. But now he is worthy of his name when he is called Fatty, with a thick waist.
After a circle, the square face before has now become completely round.
"Brother, please don't bury me. I see you've changed a lot, brother." Fatty Chang looked at Chen Ran and said. He also looked at Feng Xianjun and Han Yuchun who were following Chen Ran like shadows.
With some discernment, he could tell at a glance that the two of them were not ordinary followers.
"Boss Zhu and Brother Zhang are here too." Fatty Chang greeted Zhu Feng and Zhang Shuchun again. He had met Zhu Feng and Zhang Shuchun last time in Tengchong. He had also met Wu Laosan, but not with Chen Ran.
, so I’m not very impressed, I just think it looks a bit familiar.
Zhang Shuchun smiled and nodded.
Zhu Feng looked at him, narrowed his eyes and asked: "The bidding will start soon. Why is Boss Chang still standing outside if he doesn't go in to participate in the bidding?" His words were obviously meant to squeeze Fatty Chang.
Fatty Chang was not embarrassed at all. He chuckled and said, "Aren't I waiting for Brother Chen and Boss Zhu?" After being pushed away by Zhu Feng, he stopped hiding it and simply said to Chen Ran:
"Brother, I missed the opportunity to make money with my brother last time. I have to give him another chance this time..."
When they participated in the gambling in Tengchong, he and Old Man Yan had agreed with Chen Ran to bet with Chen Ran, but after seeing Chen Ran take some scraps to participate in the betting, they did not follow the plan and ended up missing out on a huge profit.
pen opportunity.
In fact, before meeting Chen Ran, Fatty Chang had other ideas. After learning that the Biaowang that Chen Ran had brought back had another big rise, he desperately wanted to bring Chen Ran into his company. For this reason, he even personally
I went to Tianzhong, but I didn’t know where Chen Ran had gone, and I couldn’t contact him by phone. Later I called Chen Ran a lot, but Yang Shijie answered the phone. I contacted him several times and didn’t believe him.
I gave up, but I didn’t expect that Chen Ran would also come to this public sale.
Although Zhao Guosheng saw that his thoughts reminded him that Chen Ran was not an ordinary person, he still had this idea in his mind before meeting Chen Ran, but after meeting Chen Ran, he couldn't say anything like this when he saw his demeanor.
"Didn't I bring a stone gambling master with me?" Chen Ran looked behind him and said. There were three people behind him, two of whom were bodyguards at first glance, and the other old man who was pulling a face was obviously brought by him.
Stone gambling consultant.
"There are still too few of us. There are so many materials on the public sale that we can't choose from them." Fatty Chang said with a smile. This was of course just an excuse. If they were to see the materials on the public sale, they would indeed be unable to see them.
Come, but as much money as they can bring, they won’t be able to eat even if they see too much.
"Boss Chang, I now have my own jewelry company..." Zhu Feng took over the words before Chen Ran could speak.
Zhu Feng took over the words because he was afraid that Chen Ran would not be able to speak up to help Chen Ran. He also had his own selfish motives. Chen Ran himself had prepared 800 million euros in funds, Wu Laosan had 50 million euros, and Huang
Shang and others ignored him and the total of 100 million euros was almost to one billion euros.
How many raw materials can Chen Ran see by himself? How many good materials can he choose? If it were based on normal people's standards, let alone sharing it between him and Wu Laosan, even Chen Ran wouldn't be able to eat enough.
Although Chen Ran said that he is quick at reading raw materials, the key is not to be quick at seeing raw materials, but how many good materials he has selected that can bet on rising prices. How many good materials are there in the entire public market that can bet on rising prices? Chen Ran single-handedly made another
How many can be selected? No matter how accurate Chen Ran is in looking at the materials, he can't possibly pick out all the materials that can be gambled on in the public market, right?
In Zhu Feng's view, with their financial strength, they can fully absorb the wool materials selected by Chen Ran and even have remaining funds. It is not enough to distribute, so how can they be distributed to other people?
…
Zhu Feng's idea was correct, but he obviously still underestimated Chen Ran's "ability" to see raw materials. Chen Ran could really pick out all the materials on the public market that could be gambled on.
"Did you open a jewelry company by yourself?" Fatty Chang asked in surprise, but obviously although he was surprised, he was not too surprised. With Chen Ran's ability to gamble on stones, it was only a matter of time before he opened a jewelry company.
Chen Ran nodded, thought for a moment and said to Fatty Chang: "Brother Chang, I won't help you choose for the time being, but if you can trust me, tell me the number of the wool material that you think is not good.
If I have an impression, I will tell you my impression, and then you will decide whether to take action or not."
"That's okay." Chang Fatty thought for a moment and nodded. Chen Ran's method seemed to be perfunctory at first, but if you think about it carefully, it's almost like helping him choose ingredients. The key lies in how much Chen Ran treats him.
Very sincere.
But if Chen Ran really perfuses him, both are the same, so there is nothing to say. Whether Chen Ran chooses wool for him or gives him advice, he will definitely try it first. By then, even if Chen Ran is not serious
He won't suffer much if you help him.
"In a while, I will choose a few pieces of the clearly marked materials for today's bidding and send them to my mobile phone. I will help my brother take a look first." Chen Ran said with a smile. He naturally understood whether he recommended the materials directly to Fatty Chang or only to the other party.
For some opinions, the other party would not directly believe him. This is human nature. After all, he and Chang Fatty are not very familiar with each other. He would do the same thing if it were him.
Trust is cultivated, and you can't just want everyone to trust you unconditionally just because you think you are trustworthy.
"That's settled." Fatty Chang was not polite at all and happily patted Chen Ran on the shoulder.
The Jade Public Sale Venue is held at the Jade Trading Center in Myanmar. There are ten halls in it that can participate in open bid bidding. Each hall can accommodate 300 people and can accommodate 3,000 people for open bid bidding at the same time.
Although there are more than 3,000 people coming to participate in the public auction, not all buyers will participate in the open-bid bidding, or even only some will participate. There is also a limit on the number of jewelry companies participating, so ten auditoriums are enough for everyone.
People who come to participate in open-bid auctions use it.
Before entering the synagogue, you must first register in the lobby and get a number plate. When registering, the staff will tell you which synagogue you should enter. Naturally, you cannot enter the ten synagogues randomly, but according to the number on the admission ticket.
demarcated.
Chen Ran, Wu Laosan, Feng Xianjun, Han Yuchun and Xiaohei all applied for the certificate together, so their numbers are connected. Now they are naturally in the same auditorium, and even the seat number plates are connected.
Zhu Feng did not go through the process with them, so he was assigned to the next hall. If Zhang Shuchun also participated, he would be in the same hall as Zhu Feng. However, Chen Ran did not recommend Zhang Shuchun's official ingredients, so Zhu Feng could only go there alone.
A synagogue, but in the end he called Zhang Shuchun over to help him bid.
Although Zhu Feng was surrounded by many bodyguards, two of the four he brought into the scene were foreign Japanese. It was obviously not as reliable as Zhang Shuchun to let them do this.
Fatty Chang got his admission pass earlier, so naturally he and Chen Ran couldn't go to the same hall.
They arrived a little late, so they didn't say anything more after getting their number plates, and went directly to the auditorium.
There were several soldiers with live ammunition guarding the entrance to the hall, carefully checking the auction number plate and admission certificate of everyone entering the hall to prevent anyone from fishing in troubled waters.
After entering the auditorium, they sat in their seats according to the number plates. They were in the third row. The position was pretty good, but they could not sit in random positions. Each auction number plate represented a person, and the auction number plate represented the person.
For the clearly marked wool at auction, you must present the auction number plate and proof of identity before you can pay for it.
There is a very small computer bidding instrument in front of each seat. Each bidding instrument is a small laptop computer with a special identifier and is connected to the main screen. In order to save time waiting, this will
You can enter the number of the wool material you want to bid for first and then place your bid directly.
After sitting down, Chen Ran found that almost everyone on their left, right and in the front two rows were acquaintances. Needless to say, they were all people from Zhongbao Association who flew over with them on a plane. They had arrived together.
From Myanmar, we all arrived a day late, so we happened to be almost in the same auditorium.
The people sitting in the first two rows are almost all people from several major jewelry companies in Beijing. According to the organizing committee, this seat in the auditorium is seated according to the admission ticket number. But looking at this situation, it is obviously false to say that there is nothing fishy in it.
Yes.
However, Chen Ran himself was obviously a beneficiary. The first few rows were filled with people from the Capital Jade Association and the Zhongbao Association.
On the left side of the row in front of Chen Ran was Mr. Chu from Imperial Jewelry, who had spoken to Chen Ran. When Chen Ran and others came over, the big bosses were talking. When Chen Ran and others came over, they all took a look.
Although they didn't know Chen Ran, they still remembered that Chen Ran and others came with them, but they all regarded Chen Ran and others as young men who came to join in the fun.
Mr. Chu nodded to Chen Ran.
Chen Ran also responded.
What Chen Ran didn't expect was that as soon as he sat down, he heard several big bosses talking about Jin Yuxuan. They didn't know that Jin Yuxuan had changed his boss. They were just wondering why Jin Yuxuan didn't come this time. Although
There was an accident at the Lin family, but they shouldn't not send people to attend the public sale.
Some people naturally guessed that the Lin family must want to sell Jin Yuxuan, and if they don't plan to continue doing it, they won't invest any more money in it to buy wool.
Although what these big bosses said were just gossip, Chen Ran still listened carefully because although they were just gossip, they were all matters within the industry.
If Chen Ran was just gambling on stones to make money, he wouldn't need to care so much, but as the owner of a jewelry company, he must always pay attention to these things.
"Let's see how this thing works. Third brother, when there is life, let the gangsters vote for you. When there is no life, they will vote for me." Chen Ran listened to them while talking to Wu Laosan and the others.
Explained.
Although the number of clearly marked materials he selected was relatively small, it was only relatively speaking. For today's bidding, he would have to spend more than 100 yuan on the clearly marked materials. The bidding method is a fifteen-minute round. The materials he needs to vote for are in
When there are few people coming out in a round, he can take care of it himself, but when there are too many people coming out, he can't care about it. After all, this is an open-bid bidding, and you can't win it with just one price, and you can do it without even thinking about it.
He guessed that the critical moment of bidding must be in the last minute. If he bids too much, he will definitely not be able to take care of it in the end.
"good."
Wu Laosan nodded in response. He was also paying attention to the big bosses of the big jewelry companies in front of him, but what he paid attention to was different from Chen Ran. What he paid attention to was the backstage behind these big jewelry companies. Everyone in the jewelry industry
It can be done, but if you want to make it big, it won't matter. The backstage behind being able to be one of the best in a place like the capital is definitely at the core level of the power circle in the capital.
Xiaohei and the others naturally had no objections. They all took a look at how this thing works first. It was the first time for several of them, including Chen Ran, to participate in a public auction. Although they had read the bidding requirements in the "Public Bidding and Auction Instructions" before,
I use this thing, but I don’t know exactly how to operate it.
This thing is easy to do. After playing around with it, everyone will know how to operate it. Taking advantage of this time before the official start of the bidding, Chen Ran divided the wool materials that needed to be photographed. The wool materials that were brushed out in each round were not randomly brushed.
The first round is the first five hundred yuan, the second round is the five hundred yuan after the first five hundred yuan... According to this order, you can see which piece of wool you voted for.
You will also know in which round it appears.
You can set it up on the bidder before the auction starts, and then just increase the price.
Chen Ran divided the tasks and asked Feng Xianjun, Han Yuchun and others to first set the numbers of the wool materials that they would be asked to help with later. Five minutes before the official start of the bidding, Chen Ran received a text message from Fatty Chang.
Fatty Chang sent over ten pieces of wool with the serial number. Chen Ran didn't care whether the ten pieces of wool sent by the other party were the materials that the other party really planned to bid for. He took a look and replied to the other party. This is what Fatty Chang sent.
Only two of the ten dollars can be bet on the increase. One can increase slightly, and the other can increase more. The specific increase will obviously depend on the final price. After all, this is an auction for everyone, and no one knows.
In the end, Chen Ran recommended the price to Wu Laosan at whatever price he could get, but the price would go up a lot.
Although he had already recommended it to Wu Laosan, Chen Ran did not lie. He still told the other party that he was more optimistic about this area, but did not give a range of bids.
This would undoubtedly give Fatty Chang a chance to compete with Wu Laosan. However, since Chen Ran gave Wu Laosan a range of bids, Wu Laosan would naturally take advantage of the competition.
Compared to Fatty Chang, Chen Ran is naturally closer to Wu Laosan. He naturally has to take care of Wu Laosan first. If he can tell the other party that he is optimistic about this piece of material, he has already done his best. What's more, even without Mr. Wu,
There are three competitors, and the other party also has other competitors. Whether you can win in the end depends on the other party's bidding ability.
Chen Ran gave a bid range for the other piece of wool that could rise slightly. As for the remaining eight pieces of wool, Chen Ran either responded with no impression or simply said "not optimistic".
The time soon reached three o'clock. A middle-aged staff member came on stage and spoke in Burmese, Chinese, and English for a while, and then announced that the open-bid auction had officially begun. At the same time, the big screen in front suddenly flashed.
It started to move, and everyone who was still talking and waiting leisurely immediately entered a countdown state as if it was suddenly wound up.
