Chapter 419 Means of profiteering

   I heard from Matthew Sager that I knew myself, and I met him at the dinner held by Yucheng Auction. Ding Mu really had no impression at all, there were quite a lot of people that day, and there must be no such person at the main table he was at.

   I heard Sager say: "It's normal that you don't know me, because I'm not at the main table. It's just another table."

   Now Ding Mu understood that the people who could sit at the main table at that dinner party were top bosses like Apple's big boss and real estate tycoon Shi Feng. I was able to sit at that table entirely because of Ke Peijun's status in the jewelry industry. It seems that Matthew Sager's Seg Foundation is just a second- and third-rate foundation.

  Actually. Ding Mu really underestimated the position of the SEG Fund in the art investment market. They belong to the kind of rookies who are thriving. Although they have been established for a short time, their vision is very vicious and their growth rate is also very fast. Especially in the past few years, they have used some special methods to manage Dahua cultural relics and made a lot of money. The kind of object that cannot be underestimated.

  At the same time, their influence in some European and American countries is not small, and they have very good resources in European galleries, and this time. When Shen Gongwang found them, he wanted to push his painting and calligraphy works to Europe and hold a touring exhibition in Europe to further increase the value of his works.

This Mr. Saige likes gorgeous and beautiful women the most, and Shen Gongwang wanted to fall in love with her, but when he heard that Ding Mu seemed to be a person of higher status than this Mr. Saige, his face immediately changed. Vice-stern. The appearance of iron mouth and copper teeth suddenly returned to an amiable appearance.

Shen Gongwang showed a very natural smile on his dark and fat face, and said: "Oh, please sit down, I didn't know that Dai Ying, the number one beauty of our National Expo, has a boyfriend, and she is so young and handsome, May I ask what kind of work Mr. Ding Mu does?"

  Ding Mu was originally a master of observing words and expressions, and he had already seen that this curator Shen was unhappy, but now he was really surprised at the speed of this great curator's face change. No wonder someone can become a curator. With such a speed of changing face, most people can't do it.

   It's just that, because he is Dai Ying's leader, it's hard for Ding Mu to say something sarcastic. After all, it's a breeze for the dignified curator to put on a pair of shoes for an interpreter. So, Ding Mu said: "I'm just a college student. I do some investment, I also make some high-tech products, and I also run in the entertainment industry. Recently, I also want to enter the art market. The things I do are quite complicated."

"Oh. Really young and promising." Shen Gongwang knew immediately that Ding Mu's net worth was definitely not low, and he must be higher than Saige, so his tone was very natural and determined, which made people feel very comfortable, "Say, you It’s a good thing to want to enter the art market, do you make your own collection?”

   "I'm just getting started." Ding Mu said, "Curator Jiuwen Shen's calligraphy has appreciated rapidly recently, and I really admire it."

  Shen Gongwang chuckled, and said, "As expected of an entrepreneur, he has a business mind. The word appreciation is the key to the art market."

   According to Shen Gongwang, Ding Mu suddenly became an entrepreneur. Ding Mu laughed at himself and said, "Where is that?"

But Shen Gongwang spoke very honestly, and introduced: "My calligraphy and painting skills are mediocre, but in recent years, I have cooperated with many well-known art institutions and often have exhibitions, so the price has been going up. Many celebrities and even Leaders have collected them. Would you like to invest in some."

  Although Ding Mu has just come into contact with this company, he fully understands what Shen Gongwang means. This is the operation mode of art investment, and it is actually not so despicable. This is a normal way to hype his own works.

  However, Ding Mu still humbly asked: "What about investment? I don't know anything about art investment."

  Shen Gongwang said: "Art investment is just like real estate and stocks. No matter how high the price is, as long as someone is willing to buy it, there will be a transaction price. This will increase the unit price of the work and increase the value of all his works.

  For example, I bought a painting by a certain artist at a price of 500 yuan per square foot. But it's still the same artist, and the price of this type of painting is 5,000 yuan per square foot. So in a sense, the price of the previous painting has appreciated 10 times, faster than that of the house. "

  At this time, Mr. Sager also said: "Yes, the law of value here is the same as buying other financial products. The higher the price, the more popular it is, and the more profitable it can be traded."

  Ding Mu understands, this is a bubble, but it can indeed make huge profits, and it is still a reasonable and legal form. Ding Mu smiled and said: "I understand. After mastering this principle, there are only two things needed to invest in art. First, having money. Second, buying real goods."

   "Incisive." Shen Gongwang said, "At present, domestic art investment is still in its infancy, and there are many local tyrants. It can be said that it is a good time to make money."

  Ding Mu chuckled: "Then I'll make a lot of money. I just need to buy a batch of curator Shen's paintings and wait a few years before selling them. Wouldn't it be a steady profit?"

   At this time, Dai Ying reminded: "It may also fall, or it may not be sold."

Without waiting for Shen Gongwang to refute, Ding Mu said: "How is that possible? The more celebrities and leaders collect, the less likely it is to fall. This is the same as the stocks that recently entered the national team. They have all been soaring. "

Don’t be too thankful for Ding Mu’s words, because he and Yuan Xixue have analyzed it long ago. The stocks that these national teams are stationed in are useless at all. More miserable.

   But of course Shen Gongwang liked to hear this, so he said happily: "Look, Ding Mu knows a lot, no wonder he can become an entrepreneur at a young age."

"Don't dare, it's just a fluke." Ding Mu smiled, and said with false modesty: "Just a few days ago in Hong Kong Island, I just bought a batch of goods and spent more than one billion yuan. Hey, I didn't know it at the time. I knew it earlier. The curator has such a good way to make a fortune, so I won’t buy that batch of goods. It will take a lot of effort to get them back to China.”

Shen Gongwang was very happy. This kid belongs to the kind of nouveau riche. He doesn't know how to spend his money. If he is fooled into buying his own calligraphy and painting, how much money will he make? What did you buy? It cost so much money."

Ding Mu replied: "There are everything, and there are a lot of ancient cultural relics in Dahua. Anyway, they are all genuine things at a reasonable price. I have also asked experts to identify them. However, the experts said that many of my items belong to the first-class cultural relics. It can only be sold to museums. It can’t be traded privately, and I’m screwed.”

Now, Shen Gongwang took the initiative to say: "Our National Museum has hundreds of millions of funds to purchase cultural relics every year. I can organize a team of experts to appraise the things in your hand. If they are genuine, I can consider buying a batch. .”

   This is a naked exchange of benefits, Ding Mu immediately said: "Okay, okay, by the way, will Director Shen accept orders for customized works?"

   "Of course." Shen Gongwang was overjoyed, this kid really got on the road, much happier than that foreign devil Saige. Or Dahua people are so foolish.

  How did he know that Ding Mu was suffocating from the beginning to the end...
