Chapter 263
The ultimate purpose of Edwin coming to participate in this jadeite trading conference is to compete for more high-quality jadeite for An, so he needs to save costs as much as possible, since Gu Qianxun did not follow the bidding, then he did not need to lose money to compete.
Thinking of this, Edwin did not follow the bidding again, this glass violet finally successfully fell into the hands of the rich businessman, he is still more acceptable to this result, in fact, as long as the person who took this jadeite is not Gu Qianxun, the result is acceptable to them.
The auction was going on, and the jade merchants were bidding happily as if they didn't know how tired they were.
By two o'clock in the afternoon, the auction amount had reached 35 billion, and the jadeite displayed at this time had exceeded 300, but even so, this was not even half of the total.
After a morning of auction, the beautiful hostess's voice was already a little hoarse, she smiled and said to the guests: "The next hour is the rest time, you guests can carry out activities independently, the second half of the auction will continue in an hour, due to the excessive number, the time may be delayed, please forgive me." After
listening to the words of the beautiful host, everyone immersed in all kinds of jadeite realized that time had actually passed for so long, and a sense of exhaustion suddenly surged into their hearts, and they all left the scene to prepare for the second half of the auction.
Qin Miao had already felt a little tired after such a long auction, he rubbed his temples, and was ready to follow Feng Yunlei, who had just arrived here to eat at the restaurant on the second floor, but before he stepped out of the door of the auction hall, Gu Qianxun stopped him.
The other party's face showed a full of joy, rubbed his hands a little excitedly, and said: "Hello Mr. Qin, I have admired your name for a long time, but it is better to hear it than to see it, you are really extraordinary."
Qin Miao was stunned, and a decent smile appeared on his face, and replied: "Thank you Mr. Gu for your praise, is there something for you to come to me now?"
When Gu Qianxun said this, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, so after a pause, he added, "The Gu family also intends to establish long-term diplomatic relations with Mr. Qin, and I also ask Mr. Qin to appreciate it." Qin
Miao was slightly stunned, but Feng Yunlei attached it to his ear and whispered: "Gu's jewelry company is not small in the Celestial Empire, with their help, you can integrate into this circle of Gu as quickly as possible, and establishing diplomatic relations with the son of the Gu family is indeed a good choice."
Hearing this, after thinking for a few seconds, he said to Gu Qianxun with a smile: "Mr. Gu, the time is too short now, and the auction will take place in the afternoon, it will take a lot of energy, it is better for us to wait for the auction to end, and then find a place to discuss in detail, what do you think?" Gu
Qianxun was afraid of being rejected by Qin Miao, and after listening to what he said, he quickly nodded and responded: " Of course, no problem, then I won't bother you here, we'll see you in the evening.
Qin Miao nodded, and then followed Feng Yunlei to the restaurant on the second floor, and along the way, the other party was introducing him to the background of this Gu family in Kyoto.
Gu Ruofeng, chairman of the Gu Group, is the seventy-sixth richest man on the Forbes Celestial Empire list, more than a dozen places higher than Lin Guanyang, and his net worth must be more than 90 billion, even in Kyoto, where the rich gather.
It is said that the Gu family used to be a famous family, in order to avoid war and chaos, abandoned the government to engage in business, with its deep heritage and connections, successfully broke through in the business world, and gradually became a famous family.
But Gu's business is not all smooth sailing, just when Gu Ruofeng was twenty years old, Gu's inner ghost appeared in the struggle with another big family, giving the Gu family a heavy blow, the previous family head Gu old man died in a fit of anger, the family's business also had a major crisis, and owed a huge debt, and many long-planned enemies took this opportunity to fall into the hole.
For a while, the entire Gu Group was in chaos and helpless, but at this moment, Gu Ruofeng stood up and took on everything with his own strength.
One by one, he went to the door to communicate with those creditors, and he was moved by emotion: "Even if you force us now, we can't take so much money, give me three years, just three years, bet on our Gu's signboard, I will definitely pay off all these debts!"
Those creditors actually knew that they could not get the money back no matter how they said it now, and in desperation, they could only agree to his request, but at the same time, they also let go of the cruel words: "We will only give you three years, if you are not able to pay off the debt with interest by then, we want you to look good!"
Under great pressure, Gu Ruofeng was ordered to take over the precarious Gu family, at that time, the domestic jade industry was almost only occupied by those few dragon jewelry houses, not only the price was high, but also often in short supply, Gu Ruofeng successfully smelled the business opportunities, and he is now walking on the blade step by step, so he made up his mind to fight.
He first scooped up a large number of stones from Myanmar, and then with the only contacts he had left, he held a rough stone exchange meeting, which was still a relatively novel thing at the time, and many people participated with a playful mentality, and as a result, a boss actually opened a piece of ice jadeite from it.
Ice jadeite was placed in the relatively rare jadeite at that time, the boss was so happy that the other people saw such a scene, and they all stepped forward to buy materials with great interest, but among the more than 500 stones, only a dozen of them opened up with a good head of jadeite.
But gambling stones are addictive, how many people can no longer get out of the way as soon as they get involved, many bosses immediately asked Gu Ruofeng to have time to hold another such competition, and he readily agreed, in the past two years, he continued to travel back and forth between Myanmar and the Celestial Empire, and soon paid off all his debts.
After that, he drastically reformed the Gu family, laid off redundant personnel, changed direction, and improved performance, and Gu Ruofeng, who chose the right business direction, could be said to be handy to manipulate, and under his leadership, the Gu family soon started operating again, not only that, but also united another family to deal a heavy blow to the family that framed their family in the first place, directly letting them withdraw from the business world.
