Xue Chen raised his head and said: "To be honest, Brother Qi, I was once employed by Huang Jingming, the vice president of Fuji Auction Company, as a technical consultant. I appraised all the lots that participated in the auction a long time ago. At that time, I appraised this porcelain
It’s a fake, but the appraiser inside Fuji Auction didn’t believe me, so it was still put up for auction.”
Qi Hu had a sullen face, pondered for a while, and asked politely: "Brother Xue, since you think it is a fake, it is inconvenient for you to tell me what is wrong with it?"
Xue Chen walked to the desk and took a look at this magnificent and shiny blue and white porcelain vase. He turned to Qi Hu and said, "I identify it as a fake. There are three points to prove it. One..."
Under Xue Chen's guidance, Qi Hu kept flipping the porcelain bottle, observing back and forth, his face becoming increasingly uglier. After listening to Xue Chen's three reasons, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he floated
Strong anger.
"Fuji Auction, it's so despicable, you actually used a fake to fool grandpa out of more than four million!" Qi Hu suddenly growled and cursed through gritted teeth.
Xue Chen remained calm and stood aside quietly. When he saw Qi Hu being so angry, he almost dropped the porcelain bottle in his hand, but fortunately he stopped him in time. This blue and white porcelain was the most important thing to deal with Fuji Auction and Xu Ming.
Important evidence, Xuecheng doesn't want to see any damage.
After a while, his mood calmed down a little. Qi Hu yawned and said to Xue Chen: "I'm sorry, Brother Xue, I lost my temper."
"It doesn't matter, Brother Qi is angry. I can understand it. If it were me, he would definitely scold him even more harshly. No one's money comes from strong winds. More than four million is not a small amount." Xue Chen looked solemn.
said.
Qi Hu snorted again. He was so angry not only because he bought a fake. He planned to give this blue and white porcelain to a provincial leader. Fortunately, he met Xue Chen before he gave it away. Otherwise,
After sending it out, if the boss found out that it was a fake, he would be in a miserable state, and the splendid product might cease to exist because of it!
"Brother Xue, I'm afraid I can't accompany you anymore. I'm going to find someone from Fuji Auction to settle the accounts and get an explanation! If you are willing to go with me, that's fine too," Qi Hu said.
Xue Chen's face showed a slight embarrassment: "Brother Qi, I am willing to go with you to find an explanation, but I have a good relationship with Vice President Huang Jingming of Fuji Auction, and I have served as a technical consultant.
If you find out that it was me who pointed out that this is a fake, I'm afraid it's not very good. I hope Brother Qi won't tell others, it's me who told you this."
Qi Hu thought for a while, nodded and said: "No problem, I can understand your difficulties. Don't worry, even if others ask, I will not tell others that it was you who gave me advice."
"Brother Qi, when you go to Fuji Auction, how do you plan to negotiate with them?" Xue Chen asked.
"Huh, returns are a must. In addition, compensation is also necessary. Damn, it wasted so much of my feelings and frightened me. If they dare to say no, they will never open a branch in Yunzhou.
!" Qi Hu said in a deep voice with a fierce look on his face.
"Brother Qi, as far as I know, Fuji Auction Yunzhou Branch has also received capital injection from Galaxy Industrial..." Xue Chen reminded from the side.
"Galaxy Industrial, so what? Galaxy Industrial is a big company with a lot of money, but I, Qi Hu, am not intimidated. If I really dare to be unreasonable, then I won't be polite." Qi Hu said angrily.
, "Brother Xue, without further ado, I'm going to go first. When I solve this matter, I will contact you again. I will thank you later."
"You're welcome, Brother Qi, you can handle it. I'll go back first." Xue Chen walked out of Qi Hu's office first, returned to the lobby on the first floor to find Wang Dong, and the two walked out of the magnificent room.
After sending Wang Dong home, Xue Chen drove alone, thinking constantly in his mind. He very much hoped that Qi Hu would be unreasonable and unforgiving. It would be best to let the Fuji Auction Branch be in chaos for a while. Only in this way, as Galaxy Industrial
Xu Mingcai, the person in charge, did not have the time or experience to trouble him and solved the antique store's dilemma.
He originally planned to let Wang Dong take the photo of the fake, but Qi Hu's appearance surprised him, and he also realized that Qi Hu was a very good candidate. Qi Hu was rich and powerful, enough to give Fuji Auction a headache. As for the final effect,
, we need to wait and see if this method can work.
Not long after Xue Chen left, Qi Hu held a red square box in his hand, got into his Land Rover with a serious face, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, sprayed out a large amount of black smoke, and headed straight for the Fuji auction.
Qi Hu arrived at the office building of Fuji Auction Branch and learned from the front desk that all the responsible persons were holding a celebration cocktail party at the Jinjue Hotel.
"You guys are so happy. You cheated grandpa out of more than four million yuan with a fake product. Let's have a celebration party, huh!"
Qi Hu turned around and drove towards the Jin Jue Hotel.
In a small banquet hall on the twelfth floor of the Jinjue Hotel, all the middle and senior leaders of Fuji Auction Yunzhou Branch gathered together. Cai Youde, Huang Jingming, Zhao Heng and some department leaders were present, with faces on everyone's faces.
They were all filled with the joy of success, holding tall wine glasses and chatting freely.
In addition, Xu Ming, the person in charge of Galaxy Industry, the second largest investor, was naturally present. He was wearing a white Armani suit, a wine glass holding white wine in his right hand, his left hand in his pocket, chatting and laughing with the people next to him, showing that
Romantic and chic.
The celebration cocktail party also invited more than a dozen antique collectors from Haicheng City and some leaders of municipal government departments. The atmosphere in the entire banquet hall was very harmonious, with everyone with a smile on their face and looking very good.
"boom."
Suddenly, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open hard, and the nearby guests turned around in surprise, wondering who was so rude. When they saw the resplendent CEO Qi Hu, their expressions froze.
Qi Hu stood at the door holding a red square box and glanced at it with a gloomy expression.
At this time, Huang Jingming, the vice president of Fuji Auction, rushed over quickly and said with a smile: "Boss Qi, it's an honor for you to be here, please."
Qi Hu glanced at Huang Jingming and chuckled: "Mr. Huang, the celebration party was very lively."
Huang Jingming vaguely noticed that something was wrong with Qi Hu's face and tone, but he didn't think much about it. He just smiled and said, "Thanks to Mr. Qi and his friends from the antique circle for joining us, we can only have this cocktail party."
"I was indeed very supportive and spent 4.37 million to take the final product."
Qi Hu picked up the red square box, patted it with his hand, looked at Huang Jingming and said, "But Mr. Huang, what you Fuji Auction does is very unethical."
"Mr. Qi, what do you mean by this?" Huang Jingming finally confirmed that Qi Hu was not just here to attend the celebration party.
"What do you mean? The Kangxi blue and white porcelain I took is a fake! What do you mean by me?" Qi Hu couldn't help the anger boiling in his heart and roared.
The roar was not too small, and many guests nearby could hear it clearly, and they all turned their heads in shock.
Huang Jingming was shocked when he heard Qi Hu's scolding, and his face changed slightly.
Xu Ming took two quick steps to come to the two of them, stared at Qi Hu, and said in a solemn tone: "Mr. Qi, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense."
Qi Hu sneered, "Master Xu, I, Qi Hu, can be considered a respectable person in Haicheng City. I naturally know what can and cannot be said. What's more, I know that Fuji Auction Branch has an investment from Galaxy Industry. Why?
Are you going to find trouble?"
Hearing this, Xu Ming frowned slightly and his expression became serious.
Huang Jingming caught a glimpse of many people looking at them, and immediately whispered: "Boss Qi, please give me some face. If we have something to do, let's go to the small hall next to us to talk, okay?"
"Okay, I'll give Mr. Xu and Mr. Huang some face by changing the place to talk, but I hope you two can give me a satisfactory explanation."
The main purpose of Qi Hu's coming here is to solve the problem. In addition, he is somewhat afraid of the Xu family, so he naturally does not want to cause more trouble.
However, just when the three of them were about to change places to talk, a pair of masters and disciples, Cai Youde and Zhao Heng, had already approached.
Cai Youde glanced at Qi Hu with a normal expression and said calmly: "I don't think there is any need to change places. There is something that cannot be said in public. Since this gentleman thinks there is something wrong with the auction item he took, let's make it clear here.
alright."
Xu Ming hesitated for a moment, glanced at the guests who were gathering towards them, and said, "Mr. Cai, this is not good."
"Mr. Xu, I have carefully appraised all the auction items, and my master has also checked them all. There will be no problems." Zhao Heng interjected.
"In this case, let's follow what Mr. Cai said." Seeing that Cai Youde and Zhao Heng were so confident, Xu Ming's somewhat anxious heart became a little calmer.
On the side, Huang Jingming was in a state of confusion and uneasy, because the grand prize that Qi Hu took away was exactly the one that Xue Chen had said was problematic.
Although both Cai Youde and Zhao Heng believed that the blue and white porcelain vase was authentic, which made him feel relieved, in fact, the matter had always been hidden in his heart and he had not forgotten it.
Now, a bidder suddenly came to the door and insisted that it was a fake, which quickly amplified the uneasiness in his heart and caused a huge stir.
His first thought was that no matter whether the auction item was real or fake, he couldn't let the matter get publicized, so he planned to find a place where no one was around to discuss it in detail. However, Cai Youde proposed to discuss it here...
"Mr. Cai, I think we should talk in a quiet place." Huang Jingming gritted his teeth and suggested again.
Upon hearing this, Cai Youde glanced at Huang Jingming with dissatisfaction and said coldly: "No need, let's talk here. There happen to be so many guests here. This is not a good opportunity to prove the integrity of our Fuji Auction."
And confidence?”
The guests who gradually gathered were all infected by Cai Youde's confidence. They all cast admiring glances and said to themselves: It is indeed a major international company in Hong Kong. It is indeed extraordinary, with courage and ideas.
"Mr. Huang, as long as my master is here, you can just stand aside and watch." Zhao Heng waved his hand with an arrogant expression.
Seeing this, Huang Jingming had no choice but to stand aside and say nothing. (To be continued)
