Chapter 307 Catch the ducks on the shelves
Chapter 307: Ducks on the shelves
"I want me to...become an appraisal guest on the TV station?"
Zhuang Rui was a little stunned when he heard this, and his words became stuttering. Although he had good psychological qualities, he had never been on TV since he was a child. When he suddenly heard the news, he thought he had heard it wrong.
"That's right, I just went to the TV station to be an appraisal guest..." Mr. Gu repeated Zhuang Rui's own words.
"No, no, this is absolutely not possible. Master, I have been in this industry for less than a year. If something goes wrong, it will be a shame to you."
When Zhuang Rui saw that Mr. Gu was not like he was joking with him, he shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly. He always flattered himself as a low-key person and made money. He always avoided the limelight like being on TV. Just like when he was injured at Zhonghai, the TV station asked for an interview, but Zhuang Rui refused.
The old man looked at Zhuang Rui with a smile and encouraged him: "I said you can do it, you can do it. You are young, so you should be a little motivated."
"Master, aren't you just driving the duck to the shelves? I have never had the experience of identifying objects in front of others. What should I do if I messed up?" Zhuang Rui still refused. This matter was too unreliable. He asked him to sit with a group of old men to identify antiques. He could imagine what other people looked at him now.
"If you don't do it, you will never have any experience. What are you afraid of if you mess it up? Old man, I often pay tuition fees now. I can afford to lose this person, but you can't do it?" Gu Lao was a little angry when he saw that Zhuang Rui was not in trouble and his tone became higher.
"This old man, I'm still sure..."
Zhuang Rui was a little helpless, but when he saw the big red post, he turned around and said, "Master, this TV station is inviting you. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to go if I'm?"
Gu Tianfeng looked at Zhuang Rui with a smile and said, "Look at that post, it is written on it?"
Since Zhuang Rui heard the news, he has been busy rushing away. He hasn't read the invitation letter. He picked it up from the table and opened it. He suddenly had nothing to say. The invitation letter did not specify who to invite. It was sent to the Jade Association. I hope they can issue a jade appraisal expert to vigorously cooperate with the on-site treasure appraisal activity.
Moreover, this on-site treasure appraisal event was not held in Beijing, but was jointly organized by Beijing TV and Shandong TV. The treasure appraisal location was located in Jinan, Shandong, a cultural city with a long history. The time was the day after tomorrow.
When the old man saw Zhuang Rui's face turned red and white, he smiled and said, "It's not long, and it can be back and forth in two days. It won't delay your affairs in Beijing. I'll let Xiaoyun help you keep an eye on your courtyard affairs..."
Yes, Zhuang Rui was blocked by the old man for the last excuse. In desperation, he could only nodded and said, "I can't go, but Master, our Jade Association has so many experts, why did you let me go?"
Zhuang Rui was indeed a little puzzled. If something went wrong at the treasure appraisal site, it would be a loss of face from the Jade Association.
Gu Lao glanced at Zhuang Rui and said, "Xiaozhuang, you, the director of the Jade Association, are recommended by me, and are also the youngest one here. Many things, if you achieve results, you will always be more tougher than what you say!"
Zhuang Rui did not value the identity of the Jade Association as the director in his heart. He said with a bitter face: "Master, I am just a name in the association."
"Why don't you understand what the old man means? How many years can I do it? Isn't it the world of you young people in the future? Let me tell you..."
The old man looked at Zhuang Rui with a little regret. This stupid boy usually looks very clever, but why can't he even understand his own meaning now? He started to tell him carefully.
After hearing what the old man said, Zhuang Rui understood. It turned out that the old man was helping him build momentum. Although the Jade Association is not an official organization, it is a serious and authoritative organization in China for jade testing, and the certificate issued by all jewelry companies is recognized.
In the domestic jade sales, the annual turnover must reach tens of billions of dollars. If you want to sell at a high price and be recognized by consumers, you need an appraisal certificate from the appraisal agency of the Jade Association. This is a big cake. Those who are qualified to formulate rules and share the results are nothing more than the thirty or forty directors in the association.
Of course, there are many people here who are not in charge. For example, Song Jun and Zhuang Rui, they don’t even know which direction the Jade Association’s door opens. The rights of the association are basically in the hands of a few directors and vice presidents.
However, Mr. Gu is older and is already a little overwhelmed by the activities organized by the association, so he thought of launching Zhuang Rui as his spokesperson. After a few years, Zhuang Rui will be older and will be able to accept his current position naturally, which can be regarded as helping Zhuang Rui on his horse and sending him off for a while.
Although he understood the meaning of ancient times, Zhuang Rui was a little helpless in his heart, and he could feel the unreserved support of ancient times. But to be honest, Zhuang Rui really didn't value the position of vice chairman of the Jade Association.
Right also means responsibility. If you really sit in that position, there will probably be more things that follow. In the past six months, Zhuang Rui's temperament has become much lazy. He thinks he will not be able to stand it by letting him return to his nine-to-five lifestyle.
"Why, I'm a little disdainful of the position of the director of this association? Isn't you interested in the identity of this expert?"
Gu Tianfeng was a mature man and could see Zhuang Rui's thoughts at a glance. He knew that Zhuang Rui was rich now and would definitely have such an idea. Not only Zhuang Rui, but anyone would do this. He had a net worth of hundreds of millions. Why bother to care about so many things? How can he live a good life?
In addition, Zhuang Rui is not an industrialist, so he does not need to bear social responsibilities at all. He protects his own acre of three parts of the land, and there is a jade mine to provide financial support behind it. Zhuang Rui really doesn't need to do anything anymore.
Zhuang Rui nodded and admitted frankly. In his feelings, the experts were all old men with gray hair, and they seemed to have nothing to do with his innocent little virgin who was not married. As for the cake from the Jade Association, with his wealth, he really didn't like it.
Gu Lao was not angry this time, but said earnestly: "Xiaozhuang, people are social animals, and how big a person's future development depends entirely on how broad his vision is. You have been gambled several times and you are very rich now, but can you guarantee that you will be lucky all your life?
That is definitely impossible, so you need to enrich yourself. The Jade Association is a platform for training. If you can achieve results in this industry, no matter what you do in the future, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
By the way, the Jade Association can make a guiding position on the price of jade in the market. If you have the right to speak, it will be beneficial to the development of Xinjiang jade mines."
The old man's words made Zhuang Rui fall into deep thought. Although the old man did not directly point out that he was a little impetuous, Zhuang Rui felt that he had become a little arrogant during this period. After having money in his hands, he stopped taking many things in his eyes. But what if the spiritual energy in his eyes disappeared?
Moreover, the identity of an expert is beneficial to him without any harm. With this identity as a cover-up, I will not seem so abrupt when I find a bargain on Taobao and make money by gambling stones.
After understanding this, Zhuang Rui was grateful to Mr. Gu for no reason. He stood up, bowed to the old man, and said, "Master, I understand, I will go to this treasure appraisal activity..."
"Haha, just think it through. People cannot see the sky from a well. Gems are not only available in China. In the future, the association will go abroad for exchanges. You can also participate. Brazilian emeralds, Sri Lankan sapphires, and South African diamonds all belong to the category of gems and are of great value. There are still many things you need to learn."
"Master, I understand. What is the situation about this on-site treasure appraisal? Do you always have anything to explain to me?"
Zhuang Rui was also full of longing for the gems mentioned by the old man. When he had the chance in the future, he must go to their place of origin to take a look. Of course, Zhuang Rui was still trying to find a bargain. Although the moon abroad may not be brighter than that in China, the money earned abroad must be very pleasant to spend.
The old man thought for a while and said, "You must have no problem with the identification of jadeite, but soft jade is your weakness. You should read more and say less at that time. If you don't understand, you will be unable to make sure. There should be not many identifications of jadeite. I heard that you have also studied the appreciation of antiques, so you can also communicate with your colleagues at that time."
The ancient master's words made Zhuang Rui laugh. The three words "can't be sure" are all-accurate. Although they are just three words, the meaning will be great. It can be understood that the prices are fake. Saying this is for you to save face, or it can be said that I just can't be sure, just like the word "king" is written upside down, and it won't be afraid of being timid no matter how you say it.
However, after hearing what the old man said, Zhuang Rui became interested in this treasure appraisal activity. Not to mention anything else, it is also a good learning opportunity to meet some seniors in the antique industry. Zhuang Rui's interest in antiques has always been greater than that in jadeite.
"What are you wandering around outside the door? Come in, sneaky."
Mr. Gu suddenly shouted at the door. As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yun pushed the door and walked in, saying, "Dad, you have such a sharp-eyed eye. Can you discover me in this way?"
"I'm just Sun Wuzi in your hearts, right? Okay, don't you talk to me, please tell me if you have something to do..."
