Chapter 173 Alternative Investments
Looking at Mo Xuan who raised his hand beside him and called out 1.1 million Hong Kong dollars, Wang Shuxian asked him curiously. In Wang Shuxian's opinion, spending more than one million Hong Kong dollars to buy such a small bottle, although it seems to be an antique, is not worth the price.
It should be noted that if the first movie Wang Shuxian debuted and participated in, the pay for the first movie "The Lakeside Is Cold This Year" is converted into Hong Kong dollars, it is only about 10,000 Hong Kong dollars. Even if she just participated in the movie "God of Gambling", her own pay is only over 50,000 Hong Kong dollars, because Fang Yihua likes her specially.
When he thought of the vase in front of him, it was worth the sum of his pay for dozens of movies. Although he was not spending his own money, Wang Shuxian couldn't help but want to persuade Mo Xuan not to spend this "unfairly in vain money".
"Miss Wang, you don't know anything about it. Gold in troubled times and antiques in prosperous times. Like my father, they usually have the habit of collecting antiques in their lives. They can be kept at home and enjoy the eyes, and secondly, it is also a good way to invest and maintain value."
After hearing Wang Chuxian's words, Mo Xuan had not yet explained to her, He Chaoqiong, who was sitting on the other side of him, smiled and answered for Mo Xuan. She used to accompany He Hongsen to attend some auctions, so she also had some of her own opinions on these.
"Oh, so that's how it is." After hearing He Chaoqiong's explanation, Wang Shuxian nodded with a smile. Her family is not wealthy and she has never been exposed to much antiques before, so it is not surprising that she doesn't know.
"Yes, Xiaoxian. The world outside is unstable now, and no matter what you do, there will be great risks. Therefore, if you have spare money in the future, you can also invest in antiques. This is a very good investment method, and its return rate is quite generous. In twenty or thirty years, it is not surprising that it will increase dozens of times, or even hundreds of times."
Although Mo Xuan auctioned this blue and white porcelain by himself just to add some Chinese-style elements to the villa he had just bought and to be arty. However, he still quite agreed with what He Chaoqiong said.
Haven't you seen that in the world twenty or thirty years later, Chinese sellers swapped goods around the world, and the trend of rich people collecting antiques is prevalent. Antiques that were not very valuable in the 1980s have increased by many times. They have sold at sky-high prices around the world, shocking the world.
Mo Xuan in his previous life has seen many examples of people getting rich overnight because of the antiques he collected decades ago at home. He was envious and fantasized that he could have one day.
After hearing Mo Xuan's words, Wang Shuxian nodded. Although she has not been in the entertainment industry for a long time, she has also heard of the experiences of her seniors in the circle.
Flowers are not popular, not to mention that they are in the entertainment industry, which is a very fast-changing industry. If everything is really as Mo Xuan said, she should indeed find other investments and make some preparations for her future life just in case.
"One.7 million, the gentleman over there bids 1.7 million, 1.7 million, and is there more?" In a blink of an eye, the price of the vase was called to 1.7 million by everyone, and at this time, only a few people were left on the court.
"One, 800,000, that one"
"Two million, the gentleman here bids 2 million Hong Kong dollars, is there any higher one? 2"
"Two million and six hundred thousand, the gentleman sitting behind the man bid 2.6 million. Is there anything higher than that man? Two million and two hundred thousand for the first time, two hundred thousand for the second time?" After Mo Xuan called out the price of 2.6 million Hong Kong dollars, the atmosphere on the scene became much higher again.
"The third time for 2 million and 600,000 Hong Kong dollars, the transaction is completed! Congratulations to the gentleman behind for buying this blue and white porcelain vase from the Yuan Dynasty for 2.6 million Hong Kong dollars, and also thanks the gentleman for his contribution to the charity in Xiangjiang."
After Mo Xuan claimed a high price of 2 million and 600,000 Hong Kong dollars, the few people present who were interested in competing with Mo Xuan all chose to give up after a brief consideration.
After all, everyone has a scale in their heart. In their eyes, no matter how rare or precious the vase is, it has its own price limit. And 2 million and 600,000 Hong Kong dollars are obviously more than their heart price.
"A Xuan, isn't the price of 2.6 million yuan a bit too high? According to me, this vase is at most about 2 million Hong Kong dollars. Most of the ones you bid for just now are planning to buy them back and please the old man at home."
Looking at Mo Xuan beside him who bought the vase for HK$2.6 million, He Chaoqiong asked softly, with a tone of blame. Her thoughts were the same as many people here. Although the vase was precious, it was not worth HK$2.6 million.
Most of the people who bid for the bid just now were the elders at home who liked to collect this kind of collection, but even they chose to retreat in front of Mo Xuan's price of 2.6 million Hong Kong dollars.
As for Wang Shuxian, who was sitting on the other side of Mo Xuan, who had been made to Mo Xuan's "big deal" and didn't know what she should say, she was shocked. 2.6 million Hong Kong dollars, even if the antique investment and value preservation that Mo Xuan just told her was just right, Wang Shuxian's heart, which was originally hot, was silent.
2.6 million Hong Kong dollars, which is undoubtedly an astronomical figure for this seventeen-year-old girl who has just entered the entertainment industry, which makes her mind a little unimaginable.
For Wang Shuxian, she didn't know how many years she would have to make so much money without eating or drinking. If antiques were so expensive, she wouldn't have any funds to invest in antiques as Mo Xuan said.
Looking at Mo Xuan's smile, he seemed to have no expression of caring about 2.6 million yuan at all, Wang Shuxian was shocked. Is this the so-called life in the upper class? At this time, Mo Xuan's "spending money like soil" behavior undoubtedly left a deep impression on the girl's heart.
"Aqiong, it's okay. It's rare to meet here. What's that money counting? Besides, this can not only give Mr. Shen Zheng face, but also always want to make some contributions to Xiangjiang's charity. Isn't this just a kill of multiple goals?"
Facing He Chaoqiong's doubts and even with some blame, Mo Xuan said to her with a smile. With his current net worth, 2.6 million can only be considered a drop in the bucket. When he meets what he likes, what's wrong with buying it? You have to have a happy life.
