Chapter 368 Deposit 1387 million! ! !
"Well, Mr. Zhuang, let me tell you about diamonds again!"
Upon hearing Zhuang Zhou's question, Li Mingsheng hurriedly said:
"The diamond has been confirmed to be a rare and top quality.
The smallest one weighs 15.21 carats, and the largest one reaches 18.33 carats.
It's just a little irregular in shape, and it still needs processing to make a ring, which will cause some loss.
Therefore, according to the current international market valuation, each one is valued at HK$108 million to HK$162 million. "
"How many?"
Zhuang Zhou was so happy!
I didn’t expect that one piece would be worth so much.
Zhuang Zhou has 36, so that’s 108 million.
At least 3888 million Hong Kong dollars.
That is 3585 million cny.
This is too valuable!
o(n_n)o
Zhuang Zhou's face was about to burst into laughter.
Li Mingsheng was startled, thinking that Zhuang Zhou thought the price was too low!
He quickly explained:
"Our valuation here is a bit conservative, but this price will go up at auction, so please don't worry."
How could Zhuang Zhou dislike the low price?
This was completely beyond his expectation.
"Okay! Let's use this estimate!"
Li Mingsheng nodded and continued:
“This auction of dragon-shaped gold sculpture is currently an extremely rare auction that Christie’s has encountered for the first time.
12 golden dragons, weighing a total of 752 grams.
Mr. Zhuang, you must know that the price of gold has been rising recently.
However, due to the artistic value and rarity of this dragon-shaped gold sculpture, its price will be far higher than that of ordinary gold.
According to our current estimates, the value of this lot ranges from HKD 3657 million to HKD 4350 million. "
"???"
Damn it!
When Zhuang Zhou heard this number, his eyes widened.
This is 3372 to 4011 million cny.
Although I think this ornament is valuable.
I didn't expect it to be so valuable.
Li Mingsheng looked at Zhuang Zhou's reaction and continued to explain with a smile:
"Of course, this is just a preliminary estimate.
The true value will still need to be determined by the buyers at the auction.
But I believe the value will definitely far exceed the highest estimate. "
Zhuang Zhou nodded, his heart full of expectations for this auction.
These three treasures alone are estimated to be worth hundreds of millions!
Next, it’s time for the Night Pearl.
"Mr. Li, regarding that night pearl, how does your company value it?"
Zhuang Zhou asked, his heart full of expectation.
Li Mingsheng nodded and said cautiously:
"Mr. Zhuang, the value of the Luminous Pearl is very inestimable.
Its value depends mainly on factors such as its size, quality, transparency, luster, and historical background.
Your luminous pearl is of extremely high quality, with brilliant luster and extremely high transparency. It is definitely a rare treasure.
If there is a willing buyer, I believe its price will far exceed our estimate. "
Balabala talked a lot, but Zhuang Zhou only cared about the price.
"Mr. Li, what is the final price?"
Li Mingsheng picked up the appraisal certificate and said:
"The final comprehensive quotation given by the experts is between 123.65 million and 147.32 million. Mr. Zhuang, would you like to see if you have any opinions?"
"???"
"??"
Ouch, Wori!
Is this luminous pearl worth hundreds of millions?
After Zhuang Zhou heard this, he was stunned.
Even Ma Changbo, who had always been relatively calm, looked shocked at this time.
A single lot can cost hundreds of millions, which is a topic of conversation in the auction world.
Li Mingsheng looked at Zhuang Zhou's reaction, nodded with a smile and said:
“This price is indeed based on the rarity of the Luminous Pearl and its unique value.
Mr. Zhuang, your luminous pearl has been identified as permanently glowing. It is this rarity that has led to the highest estimate of 147.32 million.
However, the final transaction price may be different, because sometimes, for such treasures, the enthusiasm of buyers often exceeds our expectations. "
Then he played for a while.
Zhuang Zhou had no other objections. Li Mingsheng handed the "Auction Item Entrustment Agreement" to Zhuang Zhou:
"Mr. Zhuang, take a look at the content. If there are no problems, you can sign.
Next, we will increase our publicity efforts and work hard to build momentum for your auction. "
Zhuang Zhou still knows how to build momentum for the auction.
Good things must be advertised.
This is a win-win situation for both Zhuang Zhou and Jiashi.
Zhuang Zhouzai read the contract carefully, and Ma Changbo also read it carefully.
This is completely a formal contract.
There is no problem with the content.
The only problem is that you have to pay a deposit first.
That works out to a total of HK$1387 million.
What the hell!
This is too much!
After conversion, it’s almost 1278 million cny.
This means that the auction has not started yet.
He has to pay 1278 million first.
This money is so profitable!
The most important thing is that the auction will not be held until May.
After all, it will take nearly 3 months.
seriously.
Zhuang Zhou really felt a little distressed!
I don’t want to go to the Christie’s auction anymore.
I can’t bear to give up money!
Li Mingsheng looked at Zhuang Zhou's hesitation and of course guessed what he was thinking.
Then he smiled and patiently explained:
"Mr. Zhuang, Christie's has a long history and excellent reputation. Once the agreement is signed, we will promise to provide you with the best service and ensure that your lot can be sold at the best price.
Although the deposit of HK$1387 million is not small, it is actually not much compared to the value of your lot.
Moreover, this is also a necessary measure we take to ensure the smooth progress of the auction.
Please believe us, your efforts will be rewarded with greater returns. "
Zhuang Zhou nodded, he understood what Li Mingsheng meant.
As a world-renowned auction company, Christie's professionalism and credibility are truly unquestionable.
It is indeed the most appropriate choice to leave your auction items to them.
only……
Zhuang Zhou still felt a little reluctant.
1278 million cny!
This is no small amount!
“Mr. Li, I believe in your ability and professionalism at Christie’s.
But...can the deposit be smaller?
After all...this amount of money is indeed not small. "
"???"
Good guy!
After many years of working in the industry, this is the first time Li Mingsheng encountered bargaining.
It was almost dumbfounding.
But for a big customer like Zhuang Zhou, he still maintains the most basic etiquette:
"Mr. Zhuang, a big auction like the one you offer.
Especially for customers who are cooperating for the first time, Christie will indeed require a certain deposit.
Mainly to ensure the smooth progress of the auction. "
After pondering for a moment, Li Mingsheng continued:
"Okay, Mr. Zhuang, I will apply for another free membership for you.
Also, please rest assured.
We will do our best to ensure that your lot is sold at the highest price.
In this way, you will not only get your deposit back, but also get generous returns. "
Zhuang Zhou was silent for a moment, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
In the end, he decided to trust Christie’s professionalism and credibility.
After all, such a leading auction company is undoubtedly the channel he wants to learn about most.
Just think of it as paying tuition for opening an auction company in the future!
Without any further hesitation, Zhuang Zhou picked up the pen and signed his name on the entrustment agreement.
Li Mingsheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhuang Zhou signing his name.
He knew he had successfully secured another important customer for Christie's.
And he was sure of it.
This year’s spring auction will definitely make Christie’s shine!
