Chapter: 3678

One was Li Qinghua, an old fengshui master who was highly respected in the American Chinese community. Even Mackenzie, the American-Chinese tycoon, would do anything to understand how Li Qinghua had managed to reverse his aging process and become young again at age 20. As soon as the auction ends, Li Qinghua will clearly state that he achieved this by consuming the Spring Dan, which would likely cause all the rich Americans to rush over that night.

The other was the just-rescued Queen of Northern Europe.

She is still waiting for her next batch of Spring Dan and will naturally follow Leaf Master's orders. Tomorrow is Helena's coronation ceremony, and at that time, all European royal families and top wealthy individuals will gather in Northern Europe to attend this grand event. If Old Lady appears before these European aristocrats, the Spring Dan would undoubtedly stir up a huge storm in their hearts.

At that point, Jinling City might become the center of attention for the global wealthy elite.

Leaf Master went on to say: "Old Chen, now many people are not willing to draw boundaries with Buckingham Palace. At that time, you should announce publicly that everyone participating in the auction must stay at Buckingham Palace before they can enter."

"When that happens, the housing prices at Buckingham Palace will directly multiply by 100 times! What used to be $1,000 a night is now $10,000. What used to be $10,000 a night is now $1 million! Don't you want to stay away from Buckingham Palace? At that time, let them see how the top wealthy individuals are fighting over housing at Buckingham Palace!"

Chen Zekai exclaimed with excitement: "That's too good! We can earn enough for a year in just three days......"

Leaf Master smiled and said: "I hope we can use this auction to give Jinling City's soft power a huge boost!"

"'Is Silicon Valley in the US exceptional just because there are many internet companies there? It's only because it has attracted a lot of talent and resources, which in turn has driven its development?'"

"'Las Vegas was originally a desert, but after the casino industry took off, it became a global-known gaming city in no time.'"

"'This proves that a city doesn't necessarily need exceptional geographical location or natural resources to develop. As long as it can choose the right field and leverage its soft power in that field, it will definitely be able to develop.'"

Chen Zekai proudly said: "I'm not saying I can make Jinling City the top metropolis in terms of prosperity, but I absolutely can turn Jinling into a city where the world's top wealthy individuals flock like bees to honey! By then, Jinling's economic development will surely experience a tremendous takeoff!"

...

To speed up the planning for the charity auction, Leaf Master called Song Wan Ting and briefed her on the idea.

Song Wan Ting was very excited after listening, because she knew that this would be a great push for Song Family's Ji Qi Temple as well.

Currently, there are many companies doing antique painting collection auctions, but few can have an impact. Christie's and Sotheby's are able to achieve global recognition only because they have strong networks and influence both upstream and downstream."

Upstream refers to the sources of antique paintings, which are now mostly in private collectors' hands. If these collectors want to sell part of their collections, they would first think of these two major auction houses, making them much stronger than general auction houses when it comes to sourcing."

As for downstream, that refers to wealthy individuals who are willing to spend big money bidding on items at auction houses. Generally speaking, they only choose well-known auction houses with good quality and safety guarantees."

"So, major auction houses like Christie's and Sotheby's can simultaneously meet the needs of both upstream and downstream parties, thus forming a powerful commercial closed loop. As a result, everyone trusts them more and is willing to give them their best items to auction off. Those buyers are also more likely to choose them.

Over time, other brands trying to compete with them would be almost impossible.

Song's family handles many collection pieces every year, but because they lack strong influence power, whether it's purchasing or selling prices, they can't reach the optimal state, and often even receiving money cannot get good items.

This auction will, Ji Qing Temple is willing to join forces with Ye Chen to organize it. That would be a huge boost for Ji Qing Temple's brand influence.

It's possible that after one or two auctions, Ji Qing Temple's influence can rival that of Christie's and Sotheby's.

So, Song Wan Ting not only agreed without hesitation but also promised Ye Chen that she would definitely bring out Ji Qing Temple's best pieces to help Ye Chen raise the curtains for this auction.!"

The inspiration sparked by the auction has left Ye Chen feeling ecstatic. JrNovels.com
