Chapter 607 Building a Golden Signboard

At the beginning, Zhou Dazhong's antique fraud case had a great impact both inside and outside the circle, and even the entire antique circle and auction circle were affected, because Zhou Dazhong's dual identities as an antique expert and the chairman of the auction house caused that For a period of time, antique experts became street rats, everyone shouted and beat them, and the auction house was also questioned by many people, making people afraid to take the treasures in their hands for appraisal, for fear of being cheated. Slowly back to normal.

This incident made Zhou Dazhong a public enemy both inside and outside the circle, and Huaigu Art Auction Company received a lot of infamy because of this. Some people even directly called Huaigu Auction as a scam company, and predicted that Huaigu would close its doors in a short time.

Of course, if the doors were really closed, there would be no unveiling ceremony today, and it is precisely because of this that more people are curious about what happened and they can continue to listen.

"Everyone, stop laughing. You guys can still laugh at this juncture? Do you know what I was feeling at that time? Just take it as a sympathy for me?" Li Dacheng looked at the audience with a wry smile Those who laughed said, "However, it may be that I thought I was handsome at the time. The behavior disgusted the beauty director, so the beauty director proposed to buy my shares and let me leave. Hehe, how is this possible? The money is yours, Do you rely on others if you lose money? Am I, Li Dacheng, that kind of person? So, I told her very seriously at the time that I would not quit, and she asked why? I said..."

Li Dacheng paused at this point, then looked at everyone present, and said word by word, "Only those who have experienced it know how to cherish it. I not only want to manage Huaigu, but also manage it well, so that Nostalgia has become a golden signboard in this industry." Li Dacheng said, pointing to the plaque that had just been lifted from the red cloth.

There was silence in the audience, looking at the two words on the plaque: nostalgia.Some people were wondering before, didn't they think it should be a nostalgic art auction company?Why is there only two words nostalgia?And now everyone understands.

Snapped!
I don't know who clapped their hands. Immediately afterwards, everyone around stretched out their hands and applauded enthusiastically.

Whoa whoa whoa!
In less than a year, from a notorious small auction house to a big auction house where even updating a Weibo can make the circle tremble three times, this is definitely not something ordinary people can do, everyone As an insider, everyone can understand the hard work involved. After all, the most important thing in this circle is integrity. It is not an easy task to rebuild trust.

The applause rang for a long time before it stopped, but Li Dacheng's words did not end. He continued, "I know that with the current reputation of nostalgia, it is not a gold-lettered brand, but I will continue to work hard, and please believe in us. Huaigu, one of you who are present today can supervise us Huaigu, if you think that I, Li Dacheng, will break my promise one day, I will smash this signboard myself without you doing it."

"it is good!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, and the applause broke out again.

Li Dacheng smiled, but this time he didn't wait for the applause to end, but approached Mike and said loudly, "I'm really sorry for letting everyone listen to me outside in such a cold day. Although there is no lunch box in the hall, there are hot drinks prepared. There are also some small gifts prepared by Huaigu for everyone, anyway, thank you for coming." Li Dacheng put his hands together in front of his chest, saluted everyone in the audience, and then pointed to the gate of Huaigu Building, making a gesture of invitation .

After everyone saw it, they talked and laughed and walked into the hall. They really wanted to take a good look at the Huaigu Building. After all, as far as the building itself is concerned, there is no second auction with such a high price in the whole country. okay.

In fact, there are quite a few big auction houses around here, and there are even many single buildings, such as the Copper Coin Building of Vantone Auction House, the Jixiang Pavilion of Jinghe Auction House, and of course the Fugui Building of Forbes Auction House, the leading auction house. , but compared with the current Huaigu Building, it is so far behind.

If it was another company's unveiling, after listening to the opening, some people would probably leave, but today is different, no one left, which directly caused Li Dacheng, who was standing outside the door, to shake hands with others until his hand softened.

Today's reception is set up on the first and second floors of Huaigu Building. For those who want to visit, Li Dacheng has also made arrangements. The fifth floor downstairs is the company's public area, which is open to all guests, and only the top floor is open to the top. , overlooking the city scenery in this area.

Li Dacheng's mouth was dry, and he was about to go in for a drink. Who would have thought that he would be surrounded by people as soon as he entered the door.

"Boss Li, what you just said is very good. If I have any antiques that I want to sell in the future, I will definitely bring them to you. But, you can't dislike my things for being too ordinary."

"I have a few pieces that I want to sell right now, but I don't know when your Huaigu's next auction will be."

"Yes, hurry up, at least give us a day, we can arrange it, right?"

"Boss Li, your nostalgia has now become a golden station in the antique circle, especially the custom-made antique business. Now who in the circle doesn't know who doesn't know?"

"Hey, speaking of it, didn't Boss Li say a few days ago that the date when Huaigu Headquarters was established was when the curio order list was announced? I don't know..."

Just when someone mentioned this, a cry suddenly came from the hall.

"Look, Huaigu's official Weibo has been updated!"

"It's a custom-made list of antiques!"

In an instant, everyone took out their mobile phones from their pockets, logged on to Weibo, and found the official Weibo of Huaigu Art Auction Company. As expected, just 1 minute ago, Huaigu’s official Weibo was updated, and the content was a copy of A custom-made list of ten antiques.

"Wow, it's Zheng Banqiao's bamboo and stone painting. Although I haven't seen the painting yet, if this is the authentic work of Zheng Banqiao's bamboo and stone painting, each piece will cost at least tens of millions."

"What is this? Look at the second piece. It turned out to be an enamel-painted figure Wendan vase from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. I remember that one appeared at the auction the year before last. At that time, the value had already reached 9000 million, and now it has steadily exceeded [-] million. , is another priceless treasure.”

"There is also a blue and white character story jar for New Year's Day at the back. This is the real priceless treasure."

"Yes, in comparison, the blue-and-white cloud-dragon pattern plum vase of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Yongle blue-and-white cloud-dragon pattern flat pot are slightly inferior, but they are also rare treasures. It is no problem to break through [-] million. It seems that this time nostalgia It is hoped that it will hit a new record for the total turnover of a single auction."

"Hahaha, the red sandalwood dragon pattern imperial case? This is my application, I won, I won, I must take him down!"

"There is also the jade carving of Guanyin, a boy. I remember that there was a jade carving like this five or six years ago. It once sold for a sky-high price of [-] million yuan. I just don't know how the Huaigu one is."

"..."

Once the list of twenty custom-made antiques was announced, it quickly swept the entire venue and the entire antique circle.

Originally, people thought that the name of antique ordering had already been established, and the list of Huaigu’s second ordering of antiques was definitely not as good as the second time. What kind of lottery, it was simply a lie. It must have been carefully screened to pick some relatively inferior antiques. Take it out to deal with people, but when people saw the list of twenty custom-made antiques released today, everyone was shocked, because the list announced this time is not worse than the first time, and even worse No less.

Soon, likes, reposts, and comments all reached thousands, and this was only a few minutes after Weibo was released, and these numbers are still growing. Every time it is refreshed, it will increase by hundreds or even hundreds .

Shouts of exclamations resounded continuously in the hall. In addition to marveling at the [-] pieces of custom-made antiques, there were actually three people who won the bid at the scene. Their moods can be imagined. One of them rushed directly in front of Li Dacheng. , holding Li Dacheng's hand tightly with both hands, shaking it violently up and down, Li Dacheng felt like a solitary boat in the waves.

"Boss Li, thank you very much. My old man loves calligraphy and admires Mi Fu. He has always wanted a long scroll of Mi Fu's running script. I know that you Huaigu auctioned one last time, but I was abroad at that time. This event must not be missed this time, and my old man's wish can finally come true." A middle-aged man said excitedly, and his eyes were red when he was 50 or [-] years old.

"I've seen this long scroll, it's definitely the best of the running script calligraphy works handed down by Mi Fu, so I went back and sent a message to the old man, telling the old man not to worry, we will post pictures on the official website of Huaigu in a few days, I think this long scroll of Mi Fu's calligraphy in running script will definitely not disappoint the old man." Li Dacheng said with a smile,

Just after shaking hands with this one, the other came over.

"Boss Li, do you know? I've been looking for blue and white figure story antiques for several years, but I can't find them. All the auction houses and antique shops in the world don't have them. I didn't expect you to help me find them. From now on, I believe that You are nostalgic."

"And I……"

Looking at the three collectors who won the bid, the people around cast envious eyes. You must know that most of the people present today have applied for custom-made antiques, but the results were unsuccessful, but no one was discouraged. If you can't do it twice, if you can't do it twice, you can do it three times. One day it will be your turn.

Besides, what if someone else wins the bid?It was not photographed by others.Everyone likes good things. Even if you don't win the bid, you can still take pictures of other people's bids. If winning the bid on the antique order list is based on luck, then when it comes to the auction, it depends on financial resources.

Sometimes, it's not that they don't want to apply for this treasure, it's just that they want too many treasures, and they can only apply for one at a time, so they can only write one, but this does not mean that they are not interested in other antiques. Of these twenty antiques, which one is not a coveted peerless treasure?
"There is a Bada Shanren Suihan Sanyou hand scroll which should be good. I don't know who ordered it, but I must get it."

"Hmph, then you have to pass my test first, to tell you the truth, what I ordered was a work by Bada Shanren, but since the order was not successful, let's replace it with this Suihan Sanyou. "

"Stop arguing, both of you, this treasure is mine, so stay where you are cool."

"Who do you let stay? I think you should go the most."

"Yes, I'm not afraid that the wind will flash my tongue."

After being amazed by the [-] custom-made antiques, more people began to find their new goals among the [-] custom-made antiques. The originally harmonious venue suddenly became noisy. Cursing, verbal strife, saber-rattling, each of them was blushing and thick-necked, and they were short of action.

Seeing this scene, Li Dacheng smiled secretly in his heart. There are often auctions, but treasures are rare, so when a treasure appears, it will naturally lead to competition. This is also his favorite scene.

"Boss Li, although there is only a list, but I believe in Boss Li, and I also believe in your nostalgia. These twenty custom-made antiques must be the best of the best. I just don't know, when will your next auction of nostalgia be? Can you give me a letter, so we can prepare in advance, after all, the antiques announced today are of great value."

"That's right, Boss Li, any one of your antiques is a priceless treasure. It's impossible for anyone to transfer hundreds of millions of funds casually, right? Just reveal it."

The people around followed suit and knew the list of custom-made antiques, so of course the most concerned thing now is the time of the auction. Who wouldn't want to have such a coveted treasure as soon as possible?
"To be honest, the company hasn't set the exact time of the auction yet, so if you ask me, I don't know." Li Dacheng said with a wry smile.

"Boss Li, don't be too polite. You are the big boss of the company. When the auction will be held, is it up to you?"

"That's right, Huaigu and you don't have a board of directors. Even if you do, the members are only you and Director Ye. You two are welcome." The situation of Huaigu is very clear to everyone in the circle, and it is not difficult to find out.

"Boss Li, if you don't say anything today, then we won't leave."

"Yes, we'll just stay here."

Li Dacheng was helpless, all the people present today were people of status, so why did they play a rogue?It seems that if you don't give an answer today, you really can't pass this test.

Li Dacheng thought for a while, then looked at the crowd and said, "Okay, then I'll say it, but I can only tell you a range, and the specific date depends on the situation."

"Speak quickly!" the crowd urged.

Li Dacheng looked around, and finally said, "After the New Year, before the Lunar New Year."

"After the New Year? Before the Lunar New Year? Isn't the range too big? More than a month."

"Forget it, we have to understand Boss Li. The Huaigu headquarters has just been established. There must be a lot of things to deal with. We must give Boss Li some time, right? I can wait."

"We'll have to wait two months at the earliest, and three months at the latest. Okay, I can just get rid of some odds and ends in my hands during this time, and concentrate my financial resources to bid for these priceless treasures!"

"Okay, then it's done, don't go back on your word, just after the New Year, before the Lunar New Year!"

"A word is settled!"
