Chapter 434 Monkey Ticket! Monkey Ticket! (Second Update!)
The Spring Festival is approaching, and everyone is busy, whether it is Xiangjiang or the mainland.
Wei Xiaofan has apparently been spending less time on the phone recently. According to what he said, he took Li Danmin to run around Huajing and Lin'an, and he was exhausted.
Although Li Danmin is from the city, the city of Lin'an really has no advantage over the suburbs of Huajing.
And the Li family is not hypocritical, so even if Li Danmin is singing and performing in the Kunqu Theater, the work at home is still not bad.
Seeing that this girl is handsome and capable, plus her big buttocks can give birth to a baby, the Wei family's parents are very satisfied with her, and basically pass the test.
This year's Spring Festival, Wei Xiaofan took Li Danmin to Huajing.
If there are no problems, they should be able to get married next year.
Wei Xiaofan is already 34 years old, and Li Danmin is already 25 years old as a girl, so he can't be considered young, so it's natural for him to get married.
In this day and age, it's not fashionable to run a long-distance love race, run for ten or eight years and then die.
Now basically talking about friends depends on introductions, and more people get married after three to five months.
Wei Xiaofan is considered cautious enough. He met in August, confirmed the relationship after 3 months, stayed together again, and got married after half a year. The speed was slower than that of young men and women of the same generation.
As for the Li family, since the news of Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe's house repair came out, Xiangjiang's designers flew to Lin'an for survey and design, which shocked everyone.
When the renderings of the two villas with an area of 600 square meters came out, the Li family immediately made a decision. This little fat man is my uncle, and no one can take it away.
Now the construction of the house has already started, and there will be a week off during the Spring Festival, and the building will be officially built after that.
Yin Jun doesn't care how the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe builds the house. Anyway, he told Wei Xiaofan that our two houses must be built with a reinforced concrete frame structure. It doesn't matter if the price is expensive, and the quality must be good.
There are not many earthquakes in the south of the Yangtze River, and there will not be many in the next 40 years, but prevention must be done before they happen.
For this reason, the construction cost of the two houses, including the cost of garden construction, etc., will reach a jaw-dropping 400,000 yuan, which is equivalent to a person's salary for nearly 60 years without eating or drinking.
That's all, excluding the subsequent decoration and furniture and appliances, the total cost is at least 700,000.
This money, including the promised sponsorship fee of 400,000 yuan for the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe, was given by Yin Jun, and Wei Xiaofan's set, as a wedding gift for Wei Xiaofan, Wei Xiaofan naturally accepted it with peace of mind.
With his brother-like relationship with Yin Jun, this gift is really secure.
Recently, Wei Xiaofan had a little free time, and Yin Jun came to him again.
"Brother Wei, are you leaving for the Spring Festival?" the boy asked on the phone.
"I've been taking Min'er around for the past few days, and I'm exhausted." Wei Xiaofan complained, "Fortunately, I'll be free on the 28th of the New Year's Eve, and I can rest for a week, but after the 10th of the first month Fifth, Min'er has to be sent back...their leader gave her a month's leave, so it can't be too long."
Wei Xiaofan knows how to do things in Xiangjiang, and returning to the mainland is even more incomparable to this group of rigid and honest people.
It was said that it was 400,000 yuan for the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe to raise funds to repair the house, but Wei Xiaofan asked Yin Jun to bring over 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars—the current Hong Kong dollar-to-renminbi exchange rate is 2.9:1.
Who will manage the official exchange rate?
What people care about is the actual monetary value.
Even government departments do this.
However, because the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe does not have the right to accept foreign exchange, it can only be transferred through government departments.
The government has been hungry for a long time. It used to pay a toll from the sponsorship of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. Now that it has received another 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars, after asking the facts, it immediately gave away the money. It was intercepted, and then only 400,000 yuan was given to the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe.
Now a group of old artists quit.
Why?
The son-in-law in our group found us 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars, which is real foreign exchange!
If you don't give us a little more RMB, then return the money to us and we will change it ourselves!
Everyone is not a fool. We all know how much RMB can be exchanged for Hong Kong dollars in the black market. 600,000 yuan is not much. For such a large sum, 650,000 yuan is possible!
Good guy, you ate half of us in one go, you are really shameless!
Dozens of gray-haired old artists blocked the gate of the government with a lot of cursing, and they still set up camp and refused to leave. This made the leaders of the government feel dizzy.
Everyone discussed and negotiated many times, but in the end they had no choice but to give another 100,000 RMB, which barely quelled the anger of the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe.
With such an additional income of 100,000 yuan, the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe immediately made a decision to build 5 more tube buildings. As for the space between greening and so on, it doesn’t matter if it’s a little crowded, anyway, it’s good to live in a house.
5 tube buildings are 150 houses. As far as the previous preparations are concerned, it is enough for the existing and retired employees to live in. If there are so many more, the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe can use the house as a bargaining chip to recruit talents everywhere!
This makes the leaders who have been poached recently feel distressed, smile and are always ready to take revenge.
It was also because Wei Xiaofan gave them such a big benefit that they responded so readily to Li Danmin's vacation.
After making so many contributions, not to mention that Li Danmin is only a second line, even if he is the protagonist, he can ask for leave!
Yin Jun heard about this matter from Wei Xiaofan before, and he smiled slightly, "It's just a matter of time, I still have something to trouble you for a few days during the Chinese New Year."
"Let's talk!" Wei Xiaofan said carelessly, "But Jun, don't buy any antique calligraphy and paintings these days. For Chinese New Year and holidays, those grandchildren are very smart, and their prices will increase!"
"It's not this." Yin Jun said, "Brother Wei, have you heard that there will be a zodiac stamp for the Year of the Monkey?"
"I heard." Wei Xiaofan is indeed a person who often visits the antique market, and has also explored things in this area, "But what's so good about it? I read it in the newspaper, red background, black body and golden face. How festive. It would be great to have a golden monkey!"
Yin Jun couldn't help laughing, "I also saw the report, the monkey painted by Master Huang Yongyu, is it not good-looking? You don't discuss this, there are 80 sheets in one edition, you can help me buy a 10,000 to 20,000 edition. It’s good to have a full page, or a quadrilateral, but the single sheet will be charged less, and the price will be lower.”
"Why do you buy so much? You can still send letters to people all over the country?" Wei Xiaofan was a little confused.
"What, I bought it for investment! Isn't there a collection of stamps in Xiangjiang? This is the first time that the mainland issues zodiac stamps, and they will definitely increase in value in the future." Yin Jun said, "By the way, Brother Wei, you should at least buy one. For the Qianer 800 version, the face price of the first version is 6.4 yuan, and the thousand version is only 6400. How cheap is it? Put it in the safe, take it out after ten or twenty years, this version may be a car !"
"Blow it, keep blowing it! Return the car? Why don't you talk about a house?" Wei Xiaofan said amusedly.
"House prices in Huajing must be expensive. I can't afford the first edition, but the third and fifth editions should be enough." Yin Jun said with a smile, "I have been studying this monkey ticket for a long time. They started designing it the year before last. Last year It has only been finalized, and it must be valuable for collection.”
"I'm really convinced of you, why don't you call yourself the king of screenwriters, and call it the king of garbage pickers!" Wei Xiaofan shook his head, "Okay, I'll find someone to collect it for you! Huajing and Shanghai are here. There are all ways, those second-hand traffickers are very capable, as long as they have money, they can bring you many things."
"Okay, I'll get in touch with you before the release, so as not to send it to the provinces later, I won't be able to buy much." Yin Jun urged, "You also buy a little more, thousands of copies will be fine. It will definitely increase in value by then of!"
"ok, ok, I got it!"
Wei Xiaofan hung up the phone funny.
If he hadn't known that Wei Xiaofan had always been reliable in his work, Yin Jun would have told him again.
People of later generations have experienced the national collection from 2008 to 2013. Few people do not know the most famous money-making stamps in history, monkey stamps.
Although there are also stamps such as "The mountains and rivers of the motherland are red", the single product price is much more expensive than monkey stamps, but there are only a few of them that have not been recovered in the whole country, and there is no value in finding them for collection-too exhausting energy .
The first edition of Geng Shen Year Monkey Tickets is different, there are a lot of them, especially now that they haven't been issued yet.
Originally, 8 million pieces were planned to be issued, but only 5 million pieces were actually printed, and 4.43 million pieces were accepted by the General Post Office before being distributed nationwide.
Because in this era, there is no concept of stamp collection, so after everyone bought monkey stamps, they used a large part of them, and after years of changes, many of them could not be found. Coupled with the hype of big collectors, the value of monkey stamps Prices are rising year by year, to a point of insanity.
In the 1980s, it cost more than 300 sheets, and in 1995, it was almost 1,500 sheets. If the full page is 80 sheets, the price can reach about 230,000.
This is not to mention, after 2000, the price has been soaring all the way, and the auction in 2009, which is the peak collection season, can reach 470,000 copies.
Two and a half years later, in the 2012 Jiade Spring Auction, the two editions were auctioned at prices of 998,000 and 920,000 respectively, which was jaw-dropping.
But do you think this is the highest point?
In fact, at the 2011 Gusu stamp auction, one edition was sold for a sky-high price of 1.2 million!
It's just that the 1.2 million is more or less a trace of hype, and it is not so authentic and authoritative.
But the price of 1 million yuan per edition is already very reasonable.
Since then, although the collections have been cooling down again and again, the price of the entire page of monkey tickets in good condition has never been lower than 800,000.
If Yin Jun only has 10,000 copies, by 2012 it will be 8 billion!
And how much was Yin Jun's purchase price?
Fantastic is twice as expensive as the face value. Even if the price of 6.4 yuan is increased to 10 yuan per version, those second-hand dealers will have to smile.
The price of the 10,000 version is 100,000 RMB. Compared with the subsequent 8 billion, the increase is 80,000 times!
Could there be a more lucrative collection than this?
Absolutely gone!
This is the importance of prophets!
In this day and age, who would have known that a small postage stamp could have such a great appreciation potential?
If Wei Xiaofan listens to Yin Jun and doesn't buy too much, even if there are only 1000 copies, he will have an asset of 800 million!
That is to say, Yin Jun didn't dare to say too much to Wei Xiaofan, otherwise he would just let him sweep the goods.
But according to Wei Xiaofan's admiration for Yin Jun, it is estimated that if he doesn't buy the 1000 edition, he will get the 500 edition, which is enough for him.
