Chapter 84 Tang Feng! Traitor?
Finally, Wu Zhiyong promised to give Tang Feng the half-clear materials he had transported back to Beijing first. [Shopping Bars, Super Speed, First Post] effectively reduced the intermediate links in China Stone operation and won space and time for Tang Feng. Of course, according to Tang Feng's style of doing things, he would not let Wu Zhiyong suffer a loss.
In the following time, China Stone, Longbao Company, and Han and Tang Baoye were preparing for each other, and the business war was about to come.
Five days later, Zeng Ziheng recovered from his knife injury. Su Qing called Tang Feng, who met her in a high-rise residential building in a residential area in downtown Beijing. When the two met, Su Qing said, "Hey, how should you thank me? I'm violating discipline."
Tang Feng smiled and said, "I'll treat you to dinner another day."
"Forget it, it seems that I helped you just for this meal." Su Qing continued, "You talk about you, I'll leave."
After Su Qing left, Tang Feng asked Zeng Ziheng: "You wrote the letter from the Chinese History Museum, right? Is this the reason why you were hunted down, right?"
Zeng Ziheng nodded and said, "Yes. But this is just a cause, and the main reason is due to internal differences."
Tang Feng continued to ask, "You are a group, who is your brain?"
Zeng Ziheng thought about it and finally told the truth. Zeng Ziheng's friend, the old man, has been engaged in high-simulation ceramic firing for several generations, and has achieved some success in this regard. However, the past experience of counterfeiting has been broken through by modern identification methods, and the high-simulation industry faces technical bottlenecks. For those who make high-simulation, technological breakthrough is undoubtedly a disaster, because the cost of high-simulation is very high, and only when it is regarded as genuine products will make huge profits. Once the technology is broken through, high-simulation can only be sold as decorations, which is not as expensive as any cost. The emergence of γr chemical additives has changed all this. This is the latest technology abroad, mainly used for dinosaur fossil restoration. Otherwise, China
People are smart. When Zeng Ziheng saw this thing, he immediately thought of making ceramics fake. So, he cooperated with Hei Da and finally broke through the latest identification methods. However, the cost of γr is also very high, and it also requires equal amounts of ancient ceramic powder from the same era. This high-tech high-tech with ancient imitation is several times more expensive than before, and can only make high-level simulated ceramics. Because of limited resources, it is impossible to operate independently. When he was in a hurry to seek medical treatment, Hei Da and Da came to his friend Wang Tianshuo. Wang Tianshuo took both black and white on the surface, but there was an empty shell inside. He found another big boss. This big boss is very rich, and he provided a lot of money to support Zeng Ziheng and Hei Da and Da to continue their research.
"But later you broke the bridge across the river and chose to leave this big boss aside and do it yourself, right?" Tang Feng asked.
Zeng Ziheng sighed long and said, "This is all Wang Tianshuo's idea. He is the one with two faces and three swords."
Tang Feng said: "In this matter, Wang Tianshuo is just a middleman who matches the bridge. When you get on the line with that big boss, he has become dispensable. Only by getting rid of that big boss and then controlling you can he have a way out. So, this is his only choice."
Zeng Ziheng said: "The technology was mature at that time, and Wang Tianshuo had a gangster background. I and Hei Da had no choice but to follow him."
"I'm afraid you don't plan to go as far as Wang Tianshuo. You can't slap it. Compared with Wang Tianshuo's objective factor, your subjective factors seem to be more." Tang Feng continued to ask: "The Ming blue and white porcelain bought back by overseas Chinese is your masterpiece, right? I checked it, 20,000 pounds, you are really bad."
Zeng Ziheng said: "That batch of Ming blue and white porcelain was fired when we cooperated with that big boss. He spent a lot of money to buy a batch of Ming porcelain fragments and even broke the equipment."
"You said you've made a batch?" Tang Feng remembered another thing, and he immediately asked: "Is there a Ming Hongwu Yunlong pattern blue and white underglaze red lid jar?"
Zeng Ziheng nodded immediately: "Yes, that batch of six pieces, although there are also flaws. But all of them are high-quality imitation products. The blue and white underglaze red in the Yunlong pattern was broken by you on the "Prosperous Collection" program, and the cost was millions. The Eastern Han rap pottery figurine sold to you was fired later. Because we could not find high-quality ancient porcelain powder, we could only use ancient ceramic powder. Because the material is cheap, the cost is not high, less than a little over 100,000."
Tang Feng vaguely guessed who the big boss was in his heart. He asked Zeng Ziheng: "Didn't you tell me who that big boss is?"
"Yang Chengming!" Zeng Ziheng blurted out.
At this time, Tang Feng had to admire Wu Zhiyong's vision. It was obvious that those who were chasing Zeng Ziheng could not be related to Yang Chengming. He would never be rude at the critical moment. He and Jiang Yuan were completely two types of people. If Wu Zhiyong had met Yang Chengming at the beginning, he would never have a chance to turn things around. Good people and bad people would never have a clear concept.
Tang Feng asked slowly, "This enemy is a bit too strong. What are you thinking now?" Tang Feng had to weigh the pros and cons of working with Zeng Ziheng. It is dangerous to be a head-on enemy with Yang Chengming. Compared to himself, he was more worried about Zeng Ziheng. If he always wanted to take revenge, he would inevitably have trouble.
"You're right." Zeng Ziheng said: "I'm also wondering these days whether I should seek revenge on him, but now I figured it out. I, who have escaped the disaster, shouldn't have thought about it at all. If we don't write a letter to expose him, we won't fall into the same field today. Since we all have no choice but to do anything to him, I can't blame him for this matter. If it were me, I would do this. So, I just want to spend the rest of my life in peace now, but I will remember that you saved me, so I want to make a deal with you."
Tang Feng didn't say anything, listened to Zeng Ziheng's following, Zeng Ziheng said: "We cooperate and have half of the benefits. Apart from that, I will teach you all the techniques, because I don't want my wisdom. If this can be called Ming, I don't want my wisdom to be lost."
Tang Feng knew what Zeng Ziheng meant. He was worried about his safety. He said, "Don't worry, I won't let him touch a hair when I'm here. If I get angry, he won't feel good. However, the things that come out must be made by **. Your operating technology content is too low and it is too easy to be seen through."
Zeng Ziheng nodded and said, "Do you think I can choose? I don't dare to show up now."
Tang Feng said: "I'll take out a genuine product and give you the corresponding materials. Can you make high-quality imitations? I want the best one, the kind that can break through foreign high-tech appraisal methods."
Zeng Ziheng nodded and said, "It must be possible. Now, you have to find me a hidden place. I need to build a kiln."
"Well, I'll come to you after I'm done." Tang Feng continued: "I hope you can remember that there are not many people who are brave enough to cooperate with you in Beijing."
Zeng Ziheng nodded and said, "I won't joke about my life. Since Yang Chengming has decided to do it, he will not go back."
Tang Feng suddenly thought of something that with Yang Chengming's work style, it would be impossible to kill Zeng Ziheng without mastering Zeng Ziheng's core technology. He would also make some moves in this regard. I hope he is targeting the international market just like his own ideas. Zeng Ziheng must have made new progress, otherwise he would not have written a letter to point out the flaws of the things he had burned. He should have found a way to break through this flaw.
After saying goodbye to Zeng Ziheng, Tang Feng rushed to Chen Yan's house all the way. Chen Yan had not yet left the house. Chen Yan didn't expect that Tang Feng, who met him every day, would suddenly come from home. He asked strangely: "Is something wrong?"
Tang Feng said to him: "Go to Zhejiang and Fujian a little later. If you have important things to help."
Chen Yan said, "What's the matter? Tell me."
Tang Feng said: "It is best to rent a factory in the suburbs of Beijing or Hebei. There are many people in the area, so I want to build a porcelain kiln." Xiao Yin is in the wild and Da Yin is in the city. No matter how powerful Yang Chengming is, it is not a state machine. It is not so easy to find Zeng Ziheng in the vast sea of people.
"Porcelain kiln, do you want to burn porcelain?" Chen Yan thought for a while and said, "This is easy to deal with. There are many places to attract investment in Hebei. I will ask my friends and I will soon find a look."
Tang Feng said: "I'm afraid it won't work. You have to go there yourself. Don't ask anyone. I want to burn high-quality simulated porcelain."
"Ah?" Chen Yan looked surprised. Tang Feng said his plans without hiding it.
"Yeah." Chen Yan immediately laughed and nodded, saying, "This is really a good idea. I like to cheat foreigners' money the most. Don't worry, I'll do it right away."
"Then I'll leave." After Tang Feng finished speaking, he turned around and left. On the way back to the city, Tang Feng called Liu Yue again and asked her to help pay attention to the trend of Ming Qinghua in the auction market.
In the next ten days, Tang Feng visited the antique market in Beijing and spent millions to buy several pieces of damaged Ming Dynasty Yongle blue and white porcelain. Porcelain is not a commodity priced by weight. The monetary value of the residual utensil is far lower than that of the finished utensil. Tang Feng had limited financial resources and was reluctant to break the finished utensil to make counterfeit. He could only settle for the second best.
The new store of the Han Tang Baoye and Longbao Company is about to open. Chen Yan completed the procurement task and returned to Beijing. At this time, Tang Feng was far away in the industrial park on the outskirts of Langfang, Hebei. The factory that Chen Yan helped him find was here. Due to the hasty time and unfamiliarity, the rent of this factory was a bit expensive. Tang Feng spent more than 100,000 yuan at once. Fortunately, he auctioned the jade seal of the Qing Dynasty "Treasure of Anmin" some time ago and obtained more than 40,000 yuan. After paying off the bank loan, he still had more than 20,000 yuan left. Otherwise, he would not be able to afford this fake porcelain kiln like a gold-swalking monster.
The whole country is attracting investment, and competition is fierce in various places, which makes investment very convenient. All kinds of procedures are completed at one stop, and there is no procedural trouble. The industrial park located in Langfang is in very good conditions, with complete supporting facilities and complete security measures. Idle people without certificates cannot enter the park at all. Zeng Ziheng's safety is not a problem.
Since Zeng Ziheng could not show up, Tang Feng specially called Lu Guang over to help from China Stone. Tang Feng still trusted Lu Guang quite a bit, and this time he also added a lot of salary. The porcelain kiln design plan was soon released, and the materials were prepared and started to be built. This was not a technical job. There were many small construction companies in the local area. Most of the employees of these companies were street guerrillas and knew nothing about porcelain, so they didn't understand what the boiler room was built until it was completed.
The construction of the porcelain kiln is just the beginning, and it is too early to fire porcelain. While the preparations are still in progress, Wu Zhiyong called and a new batch of half-clear materials gambling stones arrived in Beijing. Others could not do this, so Tang Feng had to return to Beijing. Wu Zhiyong did not break his promise and put out the best half-clear materials gambling stones for Tang Feng to see. Tang Feng picked a few pieces and found them all, and only two pieces were considered high-quality. This was enough for Tang Feng. What he wanted was a real reputation, not spread it out. With his current economic strength, he could not spread it out.
Tang Feng's technique is typical of point-covering. He wants customers to understand that no matter what quality of Chinese stone jade, it must be clearly marked and priced without adulteration. His goal is to put it simply. When a customer decides to buy jade jewelry, the place to choose is Chinese stone, and Chinese stone does not go to other places to buy it, which is the same as his idea of operating seal stones.
Is it useful to spend a lot of money to buy a Chinese jade carving? It is definitely useful! According to Tang Feng's perspective, Chen Yan's carving water products after winning the award not only did not rise but declined, but their reputation was more than one level better than before. It was an authoritative award.
In addition to Chen Yan, Fan Chengru helped Tang Feng a lot in this matter. His disciples and grandsons emerged in many masters. Tang Feng secretly hired several people to help them process jade jewelry. In this industry with a strong traditional atmosphere, Fan Chengru, the head of the leader, was very important, so that Han Tang Baoye and Longbao Company did not know that they had entered the jade market until the jade jewelry of China Stone was officially put on the cabinet.
On the eighth day of the second lunar month, the new stores of Han Tang Baoye and Longbao Company were both opened. The two companies fought in Xidan. As soon as the grand opening ceremony ended, overwhelming advertisements and endless discounts came one after another. The battle between Beijing jewelry industry has become increasingly fierce. On the same day, two banners were quietly hung at the gate of some deserted China Stone. This store only sells A-quality goods, and there are no B-quality goods. B-style goods; almost at the same time, another huge poster also appeared in China.
The stone exterior wall introduces a, B and B.S. on it in detail. As soon as the news came out, the jewelry market in Beijing was immediately in an uproar. Chinese stone attracted a lot of criticism. The difference between a, B and C is the jewelry market, especially the industry standard established by the jade market. The basic theory of this standard is that B and C are also authentic jade products, and merchants can not indicate and distinguish them. In other words, the jade products purchased by customers are not necessarily natural jade.
This practice of Chinese stone is undoubtedly a big deal, because they directly listed B- and C-dollar products as counterfeits, which undoubtedly destroyed the industry standards. The industry criticized this practice of killing chickens and taking eggs for commercial interests. The next day, experts came out to refute the rumors that B- and C-dollar products are authentic jade products, and consumers should decide based on their purchasing power.
Next, China Stone has remained silent and did not participate in any disputes about aBc products. Tang Feng has already recruited it, but it depends on how Jiang Yuan and Yang Chengming accept it.
A week later, Longbao Company and Hantang Baoye quietly marked aBc on their jade products. As a result, the discounted items were all B-quality products, C-quality products, and the prices of jadeite A-quality products basically did not change. This week, China Stone's turnover increased instead of falling, and Jiang Yuan and Yang Chengming lost.
The first round.
However, Tang Feng did not relax for too long. Half a month later, a well-known website reported that it was not conducive to Tang Feng. The title of the report was - Who is betraying Chinese culture? A well-known collector serves the Japanese far-right forces.
The content is roughly as follows. The current guest of the "Prosperous Collection" column, the boss behind the Chinese Stone, and a well-known domestic collector, Tang Feng sold the jade seal of the Qing Dynasty "Treasure of Dissuades and Rest" in Hong Kong. The buyer was Japanese businessman Toshiki Aoyama, and the transaction price was as high as 580,000 Hong Kong dollars.
The news also gave a detailed introduction to the background of Toshiki Aoyama. Toshiki Aoyama's real name is Toshiki Aoyama. He is the heir to the Japanese Aoki Consortium. The consortium has a close relationship with the Tokyo Iriki Art Museum, which collects the "Shaojun Goes to the Frontier" Yuan blue and white cans, and the Osaka Mano Art Museum, which collects the "Haki Pavilion" Yuan blue and white cans. It has organized Japanese domestic cultural relics experts to go to China to purchase Chinese cultural relics in the name of group tours.
In addition, the Aoki Consortium is a representative of the far-right forces in Japan. Toshiki Aoyama's grandfather, Makoto Aoki, once participated in the war of aggression against China with the Japanese army. He committed heinous crimes in China, and his hands were stained with the blood of the Chinese people.
In addition, the report also criticized the behavior of the younger generation of China, Kazakhstan and Japan, and was extremely worried about the Chinese education community's measures to ignore patriotic education. The report immediately called on all Chinese people not to forget the national humiliation and boycott Japanese goods.
Finally, this report published several photos of Tang Feng and Toshiki Aoyama at the Hong Kong International Convention and Exhibition Centre.
As soon as this report was released, it immediately attracted widespread attention from netizens. For a moment, countless clicks and countless comments were posted. Netizens criticized Tang Feng as a traitor. This incident was also called the "traitor's sect". The continued attention of netizens made this report occupy a prominent position on major websites. Later, photos of Tang Feng during his stay in Hong Kong were exposed one after another, and photos of Chinese stone appeared on the Internet, and calls for boycotting Chinese stone were one after another.
In less than three days, the incident escalated again. A photo of Tang Feng and Qingshan Tsuki shook hands and chatting, and they met happily appeared on the Internet. This was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire. The angry netizens jointly wrote a letter asking the relevant departments to severely punish Tang Feng, a traitor who reselled the national protected cultural relics.
