Chapter 639 Jiade Spring Auction
…
Indeed, since the other party can rise and reach its current height within one year, it should not be too difficult to fill the 20 billion hole in another two to three years!
Thinking of this, Lin Ling felt inexplicably relaxed!
But soon another question came to mind.
"Xiaodong, how do you plan to spend the 20 billion? You can't possibly invest it in Rose Jewelry, right?"
"Of course not Rose Jewelry!" Liu Dong's face showed a trace of thinking.
After annexing Han Jewelry, which has more assets than itself, Rose Jewelry will need at least a year to integrate the human resources, market, logistics and logistics configuration of the two companies, etc.!
Therefore, if you want to continue to expand the scale of Rose Jewelry, you will have to wait until at least the end of next year.
As for Taiyi Pavilion and Chenxiang Pavilion under Dongchao Group, blind expansion is not advisable due to the particularity of the industry. One step at a time is the most reasonable development strategy for the two companies.
The newly established Puhua Red Star Auction House is now the third largest auction company in the country and the earliest in the industry. Moreover, what the auction industry needs is not large-scale expansion, but the collection of enough collections. As for influence, it was originally
Red Star Auction House’s domestic influence is already large enough!
Excluding Hengyuan Real Estate, in which Liu Dong only holds 40% of the shares, and Fuxing Beishi, which has only 49% of the shares, there are only three large companies actually controlled by Liu Dong. In addition to Dongchao Group, they are Jiahua Group and Qingyang Venture Capital.
.
Investment. Liu Dong is not good at it, and he believes more in tangible physical assets. He has little enthusiasm for investing in the stock market and futures, as well as the Internet industry that Zhang Fan is passionate about.
Moreover, the 20 billion capital was too relevant, and Liu Dong had no intention of investing in Qingyang Venture Capital.
So K. Wah Group has become the only choice now.
After Liu Dong's reintegration, the Jiahua Group now owns Jiahua Tourism Company, Jiahua Hotel Management Company, Qingzhou Yanghe Scenic Area Development and Management Company, Hu-bei Guanjiachong Scenic Area Development and Management Company, and a Ctrip travel network!
The development of scenic spots is a long-term project, and he is very satisfied with the original development plans of the two scenic spots. Except for using part of the 20 billion to supplement the construction funds of the two development companies, Liu Dong has no plans to start new scenic spot development.
plan!
Liu Dong still doesn't have a clear vision of the future of Ctrip, but he won't favor one over the other. It won't be difficult for Liu Dong to invest 100 to 200 million!
Taken together, these three companies will cost Liu Dong nearly 3 billion!
The remaining travel agencies and Jiahua Hotel are the bulk of Liu Dong's investment, and the entry level in the tourism and hotel industries is relatively low, so they have the foundation for rapid expansion!
And there is real estate that Liu Dong is obsessed with, and Liu Dong also plans to enter!
Of course, there is no rush now. Even with Zhou Bin's help, it will take at least a month to get the 20 billion loan.
During this period, Liu Dong has enough time to consider his next industrial layout!
Driving Lin Ling home, she briefly told Wang Qiang what she had discussed with Zhou Bin at noon. Although Wang Qiang was shocked by the 20 billion loan, she still expressed her support for Liu Dong's decision.
Of course, what excites Wang Qiang the most is the fact that the annexation of Han's Jewelry has become a reality. You must know that the significance of Han's Jewelry to Wang Qiang is not just a jewelry company, but her father's hard work was also one of them. This time, she has the opportunity to acquire it.
Wang Qiang was naturally excited when she came back.
If Liu Dong hadn't stopped her, she would have rushed to Chongqing as soon as she received the news again!
But in this case, because Wang Qiang had to catch a 6 o'clock flight in the morning, the person who went to the Guardian auction with Liu Dong in the evening became Lin Ling beside her.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Liu Dong and Lin Ling arrived at the hotel where the auction was held on time. After paying a deposit of 10,000 yuan and receiving a bidding card, he took Lin Ling and walked in.
As a place where the hotel was originally used to hold large banquets, the 1,200-square-meter venue is spacious enough, but the only drawback is that there are no private rooms, only rows of seats to ensure that it can accommodate more people.
According to the position mentioned by Zhou Bin before, Liu Dong successfully found the opponent in the front row!
"Brother Zhou!"
"Xiaodong, you're here! Sit down quickly! The auction is about to start!"
Just when Zhou Bin greeted Liu Dong, the person who was sitting next to Zhou Bin and talking to him also looked towards Liu Dong.
Moreover, the unabashed scrutiny in the other party's eyes made Liu Dong feel a little curious.
At this moment, Zhou Bin also noticed the eye contact between the two parties and chuckled: "Xiaodong, let me introduce to you. This is President Gu Zhichun of our Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. If you want to get a loan from ICBC,
We also need to talk more with our President Gu!"
Hearing this, Liu Dong's eyes lit up, and after nodding, he looked at the middle-aged man in his forties, who was about forty years old, wearing a simple suit, with a calm and capable look on his face with a smile, and stretched out his
The right hand said: "President Gu, please take good care of me!"
"It's easy to say, as long as it complies with ICBC procedures, if Mr. Liu wants a loan, just come to me!" Although Gu Zhichun came to participate in this auction because of Zhou Bin's face, he was not unprincipled, so he made his position clear first.
.
Everyone present was smart. Both Zhou Bin and Liu Dong heard what the other party said. Except for Zhou Bin frowning and saying nothing, there was nothing strange on Liu Dong's face. Originally, he just wanted Zhou Bin to take the lead for him.
, did not intend to use the other party’s relationship to go through the back door, so his loan naturally complied with ICBC’s procedures.
"Of course, this is not the first time that I have cooperated with your bank. I understand all the procedures, and I believe that I have enough ability to repay your bank's loan!" Liu Dong said with confidence.
Seeing this, Gu Zhichun couldn't help but have a look of surprise on his face.
From Liu Dong's words and expression, it can be seen that the other party is not planning to rely on Zhou Bin's influence to come to him through the back door, but is really relying on his strength to get a loan from ICBC. Of course, if he can find him, it will definitely not be a small amount.
But these don't matter. As long as the other party has sufficient repayment ability, as the other party said, there is no problem in lending to the other party. After all, loans and deposits are indicators for evaluating bank performance.
Moreover, at his current position, if he wants to continue in the officialdom, his relationship has been relegated to the second place. The most important thing is his solid performance. Otherwise, he has nothing to offer, even if he can win the support of the family behind Zhou Bin.
, then the deputy ministerial level will come to an end!
"Haha, in this case, I really hope that I can have a chance to have a good chat with Mr. Liu!"
"It's what I asked for!" Liu Dong smiled.
"You two, if you want to continue chatting, you should wait until the auction is over. The people behind you are very unhappy with you now!" Zhou Bin said with a smile.
After he reminded them, the two of them realized that they were blocking the view of those behind them.
After reflecting, he quickly sat down on the chair next to him.
Later, after the three of them chatted briefly for a while, Liu Dong also got Gu Zhichun's contact information and made an appointment with him for the next meeting.
At this time, the Jiade Spring calligraphy and painting auction has also begun!
The first auction item attracted everyone's attention as soon as it appeared.
"Chen Shaomei's "Gao Shi Appreciating Lotuses" has a low price of 500,000, and each increase in price must not be less than 20,000. Now interested collectors can bid!" said the auctioneer who presided over the auction.
Chen Shaomei was born in a family that is often said to be scholarly in China, and was proficient in calligraphy and painting. She was already a literary talent and had outstanding painting skills when she was young. Chen Shaomei joined the Jinbei Tower at the age of 15. Chen Shizeng and others initiated the Chinese Painting Research Association, and became a famous painter at the age of 17.
The backbone of the Hushe Painting Society. At the age of 21, his works won the Silver Medal of Fine Arts at the 'International Expo Centenary of the Founding of the Republic of Belgium'. At the age of 22, he chaired the Tianjin Branch of the Hushe Society and became the leader of the Tianjin painting circle.
The skill of his works is profound and profound, which is enough to compete with the ancient sages. He has formed a fresh and vigorous painting style that combines elegance and masculinity. He has become the most outstanding painter who promoted Northern Song Dynasty painting since the late Ming Dynasty. He has the reputation of "the first person after Tang Yin" and is considered to be "the most outstanding painter in the history of Northern Song Dynasty".
An insurmountable peak has been erected in the world of modern painting.
Like many outstanding talents in history, 46-year-old Chen Shaomei died of cerebral hemorrhage, so few of his works have survived. Therefore, in the 1900s, Chen Shaomei was ranked among the "Big Red Robe" alongside Ren Bonian, Pan Tianshou and others.
The price of a famous painter is only about 100,000, but since the new century, Chen Shaomei's paintings have been highly sought after. At the just-concluded Sotheby's auction in Hong Kong, a painting of "Summer Mountain" reached a high price of 1.4 million!
The "Coats Appreciating Lotuses" currently on the electronic screen is also a masterpiece by Chen Shaomei, and the painting is 9 square feet. If nothing else, it is also a work worth over one million!
Such master's handwriting is exactly what Liu Dong is chasing, so when the price of the painting exceeded 900,000, Liu Dong decisively joined the competition and raised the price to one million!
"Xiaodong, do you like this painting too?" Zhou Bin asked.
"Of course, as long as it is a masterpiece, I like it!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
"Aren't you afraid of buying fakes?"
You must know that even at the auction, no one guarantees that all the collections are authentic, and Liu Dong did not participate in the three-day preview of the Jiade Spring Auction!
"Haha, don't worry, Brother Zhou. Even if I haven't participated in the preview and haven't seen the original painting with my own eyes, I believe in my appraisal ability!" Liu Dong said confidently.
Of course, the reason why Liu Dong was so confident was because of the relic Yuanguang. Although the painting was not taken out, it was stored in the hotel. Liu Dong was able to accurately find it and identify the authenticity!
