Chapter 153 Gu Junshan
"Teacher Yu, you don't call in advance when you come. You're not welcomed..."
Just as Fang Yi was thinking about continuing to check the quartz stone in his hand, a group of four or five people walked out of the hotel elevator. After a little look, a middle-aged man in the forty-two or three years old rushed towards Yu Xuan. He stretched out his hands from a distance and greeted him warmly.
"Xiao Gu, I knew you must be there in this kind of occasion..."
Seeing the visitor, Yu Xuan also stood up, stretched out his hand and shook the man, and turned around and introduced: "Xiao Gu, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Sun from the National Appraisal Committee, and this is Mr. Sun's disciple Fang Yi. You know..."
"Oh, it turns out it's Mr. Sun. I've heard of Daming for a long time and I haven't had the chance to visit you..."
Jade is a category of miscellaneous items, and miscellaneous items is a category of antiques. As a traveler, the man naturally knew Sun Lianda's name. He quickly stretched out his hands and held Sun Lianda, took out his business card from his pocket, handed it over respectfully, and said, "Old Sun, I am Gu Junshan, I have been in the jade circle. You may have never heard of my name..."
"Gu Junshan? Why haven't I heard of the largest jade merchant in Jiangnan..."
Sun Lianda took the business card and replied with a smile, "If it were in the past, he would not have had contact with such a businessman, but today, Sun Lianda was here to support Fang Yi, but he didn't show any expression to the other party."
"Brother Sun, don't think that Xiao Gu is not old, he is called the Jade King in Jiangnan..." Yu Xuan pointed to Gu Junshan and said with a smile.
"I've heard of this title. Xiao Gu is good. He works hard by himself..."
Sun Lianda nodded when he heard this. He was not talking clichés, but had really heard of Gu Junshan's name and knew that he was in contact with the jade business in the mid-1980s. In the past fifteen or sixteen years, he had developed into a large jade businessman in China. Sun Lianda still admired such a self-made person.
"It's all friends who joke. The Jade Prince is here in Xinjiang Province. How dare I call Jade King? It's just a small business. It's just a small business..."
After hearing Sun Lianda's words, Gu Junshan said politely, but a look of surprise appeared on his face. However, he heard that Mr. Sun was not very good at businessmen, but he didn't want to meet but was so easy to talk to.
Gu Junshan is very good at being a human being. After handing Sun Lianda the business card, he did not neglect Fang Yi. He handed over another business card and said, "Mr. Fang, everyone is in Jiangnan. In the future, we will have more contacts. Just call me about jade..."
Although Gu Junshan is very low-key in front of Sun Lianda, in fact, as Sun Lianda said, Gu Junshan is indeed the largest jade merchant in Jiangnan. He has taken up almost 60% of Jiangnan's market share from raw stones to production and processing to sales.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu..." Fang Yi took the business card, glanced at the business card with his eyes and found that there was only one name and phone number on it.
"Is this?" After a few greetings with Fang Yi, Gu Junshan looked at Lan Lian again. After seeing this, he was stunned and said in disbelief: "You... are Lan Dong? Xinbai's Lan Dong?"
Just now, Gu Junshan focused all his attention on Yu Xuan, but he felt that Lan Lian was standing there with a superior temperament. But after careful look, even though Lan Lian was still wearing sunglasses, Gu Junshan recognized her at a glance.
Although Gu Junshan is slightly inferior to Blue Lotus in terms of wealth, as a place where Blue Lotus sells luxury goods, 70 to 80% of the high-end jades in Gu Junshan are sold from Xin Lotus, and the annual sales are over 100 million, so he naturally knows Blue Lotus.
"Hello, Mr. Gu, I didn't expect to meet him here?"
Seeing that the other party recognized him, Lan Lian stretched out her hand and shook it with Gu Junshan, and said, "I want to carve a few jade pendants recently. Please ask a few teachers to come and help me pick up a good stone..."
"Dr. Lan, if you want this thing, just say it to me, isn't it all?" Hearing Lan Lian's words, Gu Junshan hurriedly said: "The transactions here are basically raw stones, so don't choose them. What kind of pendant do you want? I'll send them to you..."
Whether Gu Junshan can continue to do his business in Xinbai depends entirely on Lan Lian's words. It is rare to encounter the opportunity to curry favor with Lan Lian, so he naturally doesn't want to let it go. Even if he gives away an object worth eight million, Gu Junshan would not frown.
"Mr. Gu, don't be polite. I want to buy a piece of raw stone and carve something I like..."
Lan Lian shook her head. In fact, after seeing Gu Junshan, Lan Lian knew that she had come a bit rash. In fact, if you want to buy a raw stone, just call Gu Junshan, I believe he can do it properly.
However, it is related to the illness that has troubled her for several years. Lan Lian has lost her composure in doing things these two days. And since she has arrived, she has invited Fang Yi and the two old men who seem to be very famous. Naturally, Lan Lian can't go home again.
"That's true, as the saying goes, it's hard to buy a good friend of mine, just like Mr. Lan..."
Gu Junshan knew that Lan Lian was from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and her temper and personality were not very similar to those from mainlanders, so after hearing Lan Lian's words, he did not continue to say it, but introduced several people behind him to Yu Xuan and others.
Following the four people in Gu Junshan, two were raw stone merchants from the Hetian jade production area, and two were jade merchants from the south. They came to the Jiangnan territory. Of course, Gu Junshan, the landlord, greeted him, but the few people had just returned to the hotel after lunch and were preparing to look at the materials.
After Gu Junshan introduced this, several business cards were handed over. Even though those people had never heard of Sun Lianda's name, no one knew Yu Xuan. This attitude was naturally not very attentive.
"Okay, they are all acquaintances, so everyone doesn't have to be polite anymore..."
Yu Xuan and several others have also seen each other, but they are not that familiar. They waved their hands and said, "Xiao Gu, are there any good materials this year? Take us to see it first. I won't attend the trade fair tomorrow. Fang Yi, after seeing Mr. Gu's things, it doesn't matter if you don't watch anything else..."
Yu Xuan knew that any good jade would be included in the trade fair held in Jiangnan. If you can’t select good materials from Gu Junshan, you won’t have to watch other people’s homes.
"Teacher Yu, are you polite me..."
After hearing Yu Xuan's words, Gu Junshan laughed and said, "It just so happened that we were all preparing to look at the materials in the conference room. The good materials brought from Xinjiang Province this time are there. Why don't you guys go there and take a look?"
Most of the morning trade fairs were purchased or contacted by some second- and third-level jade dealers, but the final bulk transactions actually happened within a small range of a few people. In other words, only five or six people who can participate in this kind of transaction were Gu Junshan in front of him.
"Of course we have to go and see, otherwise what are we doing?" Yu Xuan laughed and pointed at Fang Yi, saying, "We are studying with the prince today. He is the one who is watching. If he takes medicine, it will be his own business..."
"Teacher Yu, you can't wait to die..." Fang Yi said pitifully, "I am half of your old student. If you take medicine in front of you, you will be embarrassed if you spread it, right?"
"Face is earned by myself, not my eyes. Why am I afraid of losing face?" Yu Xuan laughed. How could an old man like him who had been hanging with antiques for decades be squeezed by Fang Yi in one sentence?
"Brother Fang, are you, Brother Gu, so why are you afraid you won't be able to pick good items?"
After hearing the conversation between Fang Yi and Yu Xuan and thinking about what Lan Lian said just now, Gu Junshan already understood a little. It turned out that Lan Lian, Sun Lianda and Yu Xuan were all coming to the young man in front of him.
This thought came to life in my heart, and Gu Junshan's attitude towards Fang Yi also changed, and his name changed from Mr. Fang to Brother Fang just now. However, at his age in his forties, it is not an exaggeration to call Fang Yi "Brother".
And putting aside Fang Yi, even for Lan Lian, Gu Junshan has to satisfy her and return to the jade sales counter with a annual turnover of over 100 million yuan, which is the largest shipping channel for Gu Junshan's high-end jade.
Unlike people like Lan Lian who grew up abroad with a golden key in their hands, Gu Junshan worked hard since the early 1980s, so he was more tactful in dealing with people than Lan Lian. When he spoke, even Lan Lian's assistant Song Qing took it into consideration, giving people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.
Under Gu Junshan's guidance, the group entered the elevator and came to the conference room on the fourth floor of the hotel. At the door of the conference room, four or five strong men stood there. Suddenly, they saw so many people coming. The four or five people suddenly became nervous. They finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Gu Junshan and others.
"Well? There is a lot of materials this year?" Yu Xuan was a little surprised when he saw the pomp outside the conference room. He knew that Gu Junshan went downstairs to greet him. Someone must have looked at the jade on it, but it was still stunned for a moment if he had to use four or five people.
"The price of jade has been rising in the past two years, so I want to stock up on more materials..." Gu Junshan waved his hand and led Yu Xuan and others to push the door into the conference room.
