In the jewelry market, the annual global sales are about 200 billion US dollars.

In the world of "I Am Legend", Li Daniu searched for the inventory accumulated over the years in the city of New York. Although there are many private collections, in his own safe, Li Daniu did not have time to find them one by one. But just the jewels in the vaults of major banks or in the safes of customers are already valuable.

Among them, there is no shortage of jewelry stocks that Li Daniu scavenged from major jewelry stores in New York.

Roughly estimated, if all the jewels were sold at the market price, the total value of this batch of jewels would be more than 20 billion US dollars.

However, these two tens of billions of dollars of jewelry are not so easy to sell.

Although Li Daniu sold all the diamonds and even obtained a wealth of more than two billion US dollars, the impact of this batch of diamonds on the overall market is not great, and the global market can be completely consumed within a year.

But 20 billion dollars worth of jewelry is already equivalent to one-tenth of the annual sales. If you push all of them into the market at once, you won't be able to sell them in a short time, not to mention the impact on the market.

Even if there are jewelers who are willing to buy, they will lower the price because it takes time to sell, which Li Daniu is unwilling to accept.

Therefore, we can only continue to sell in batches.

But even if it is sold in batches, there is still a very serious problem, that is, you, Li Daniu, where did you get so many jewelry?

Two billion dollars is an astonishing amount of wealth for ordinary people, but for the truly rich, it is not an exaggeration, and not too many people will pay attention to it.

After all, Tuvalu is also a country. When the value of diamonds and other things was not that great, it was understandable to collect a batch, and it was barely acceptable.

But if Li Daniu continues to produce more valuable jewelry, there are even many finished products that have never appeared in this world, and the value is huge, and someone will definitely meddle in his own business.

Although Li Daniu established a TC jewelry, but there is only one technical consultant, not even a designer or even a craftsman, even if Li Daniu said that these jewelry are made by free purchase of raw materials, no one will believe it.

Besides, if you buy raw materials, where do you buy them from? Such a good raw material was born, and those of us jewelers who have been in business for many years have already been bought by you without knowing the news?

If you take out ten tons of gold, no one will be too jealous. There are many shipwrecks in this world. If you are lucky, you may be able to salvage one of them.

But if it's all priceless finished jewelry, even if you salvage all the sunken ships in the world, you can't explain it.

Because many of Li Daniu's jewels were processed by modern technology, and most of the shipwrecks were from World War II or earlier. In modern times, how many people would use ships to transport such priceless jewels?

"Could it be that this wealth is doomed to be shamed?"

Li Daniu was frowning in the free office, thinking about the batch of jewels hidden in the sea by the free, his heart was in a panic, it was more uncomfortable than guarding a golden mountain to beg for food.

While Li Daniu was thinking of a way, there was a knock on the door, and Burns walked in.

"Your Majesty, your previous necklace has already been sold. As for the auction house, after deducting the commission, the auction house needs to replenish us with 17 million dollars, and it will arrive within three days."

"What's the use of 17 million?" Li Daniu can't see 17 million US dollars at all now, and the monthly Tuvalu welfare alone will cost 30 million US dollars. what's the point?

However, Li Daniu was still very curious about someone spending more than 200 million US dollars to buy a necklace.

"Who bought it?"

Burns shook his head and replied, "This auction is an internal auction, so there is no way to know who the buyer is."

wǒkào, it's so mysterious.

Li Daniu complained a few words, and suddenly woke up, yes, the auction, how could he forget this, it is entirely possible to sell this batch of jewelry through the auction.

Before that, Li Daniu had always thought that after the construction of New Tuvalu was completed, he would use auctions to attract rich people. However, although New Tuvalu has not yet been built, he can sell jewelry through auctions and collect funds. .

Since there are anonymous buyers, there can be anonymous sellers, as long as the money falls into free pockets in the end, isn't it all right? As for such money, how to spend it in a legitimate way? It's too simple, black money can be laundered, let alone the money from selling jewelry?

Besides, even if the seller's information may be leaked by the auction house, zìjǐ can completely buy an auction house. If the auction house belongs to zìjǐ, then there are too many ways to operate.

Moreover, the auction house is actually not expensive. Even if it is the most famous auction house in the world, its market value is only about two billion US dollars. With the help of the auction house's reputation, they can hold a free auction, and all the jewels can be put up for auction.

Of course, there are still many details to be resolved, such as how to publicize, choose the auction location, which auction house to cooperate with or acquire, and so on.

However, this difficulty is really not difficult compared with the net income of more than 20 billion US dollars.

"Burns, help me prepare the information of the world-renowned auction house, I am useful."

Burns had long been familiar with Li Daniu's idea of ​​Tianma Xinggong, so he agreed on the spot, and then arranged for his subordinates to collect information.

In the evening, Li Daniu got the information of all the auction houses in the world.

The world's largest auction house is still Sotheby's, also known as Sotheby's. Valuation, the current system of paying a deposit to Li Daniu, and with this system, moved towards the position of the world's number one auction house.

Li Daniu took a look at the valuation, and it was about 2.1 billion U.S. dollars. In fact, this is already amazing, because auction houses rarely have free industries, which is equivalent to having no fixed assets. Many auctions are held. Rent someone else's space. The market value of 2.1 billion US dollars is entirely supported by fame.

For some other auction houses, except for a few auction houses similar to Sotheby's with a market value of more than one billion US dollars, the rest are all auction houses whose main market is located in a certain country, and the market value is even cheaper.

After reading the information, Li Daniu discovered a problem, that is, some well-known auction houses have more than one shareholder. In addition to the scattered shares after listing, there are as many as a dozen important shareholders or companies. People and holding companies are spread all over the world.

How the **** do I buy it? After talking one by one, the day lily was cold.

There is another problem, that is, even Sotheby's, the world's largest auction house, has an annual turnover of only about US$600-7 billion, and what's more, it is a combination of Sotheby's in Asia, Europe, etc. The total amount, of which the main auctions are antiques and works of art, and there are few jewelry categories.

After all, as the old saying goes, gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times. In peaceful times, the collectors of jewelry are far lower than the collectors of antiques or works of art.

Moreover, the larger the auction house, the more they hold auctions on a regular basis, instead of saying that there are good things, UU Kanshu will hold an auction based on this.

"This is different from what I imagined."

Li Daniu frowned, he was a hanger in his previous life, how could he be in the mood to pay attention to this information?

Now he found that if he wanted to rely on the acquisition of an auction house to sell free jewelry, it seemed that he could not achieve the desired effect at all.

There are problems with the auction time and the market, how to operate it?

"Grass, the big deal is that I will set the time freely and create the market freely."

With the experience of this period of time, Li Daniu's mentality has also changed unconsciously. If it was before, he would definitely act cautiously and slowly for the sake of caution.

But now, Li Daniu has dared to take risks, and his attitude has become that there are no conditions, and conditions must be created.

Taking this step forward, for Li Daniu, is a change in the way of thinking about problems, and it can even be said that it is a sublimation of the spiritual realm! (To be continued.)
