Chapter 69: Emerald Gang

After thinking for a while, he said, "In other words, the Lin family's demand for jadeite can account for one-fifteenth to one-tenth of Myanmar's annual jadeite trading volume. Such a large amount should be able to directly contact Myanmar. It’s just right to negotiate.”

Lin Hui nodded and said, "You're right. The Lin family will be invited by the Burmese government every year for the Myanmar public offering. Of course, they can also directly participate in the purchase of jadeite. But the Jadeite Gang in mainland China specializes in the jadeite trade. Their influence is unparalleled in mainland China. If you don’t choose to cooperate with them, you will never get enough and good enough jadeite.”

Zhang Jun frowned: "This is completely unreasonable. The Burmese side wants to maximize their benefits and will never let the Emerald Gang dominate."

Lin Hui nodded: "You are very accurate. The Emerald Gang and the Burmese side actually wear a pair of pants. According to the collected information, the Emerald Gang and the Burmese side have a close relationship, and there should be a conflict of interest."

Zhang Jundao: "It's no wonder. It seems that the Myanmar government wants to use the power of the Jade Gang to control the secondary and tertiary markets of the jade industry and make more profits. Rare things are valuable. As long as you master the skills, the same More emeralds can be sold at a higher price."

Lin Hui agreed deeply, and nodded again and again: "You are right. In the past ten years, the price of jadeite has increased by nearly 20 times, and it is becoming more and more difficult to find high-quality jadeite in the market."

Speaking of this, Zhang Jun was startled, and quickly asked: "Uncle, so people outside the Jade Gang can't buy enough jade at all?"

"Not entirely. After all, the jadeite market is so big that it is impossible for the Jadeite Gang to overwhelm the sky with one hand. As long as it controls more than 40% of the supply, it can basically control the entire mainland market. The remaining 50% share, A small half will be divided up by other big powers. For example, Hong Kong’s Jade Shop, Singapore’s Stone Association, etc. In the end, retail investors can only eat about 30%.” Lin Hui obviously has a deep understanding of the jade market, provided This information is not accessible to ordinary people.

Zhang Jun breathed a sigh of relief, 30% of the supply is enough!

Lin Hui continued: "Actually, for many years, the Lin family's jadeite has been obtained from two sources, 70% from the Jadeite Gang, and 30% from the Burmese public market. It's just that the risk is too great to obtain the 30% jadeite, and it is often very invested , can only get five or six points in return."

Zhang Jun understood the meaning of this sentence. Lin Xian once told him that more than 50% of Myanmar's jadeite is sold in the form of clear material, 20% is sold as semi-finished material, and only about 20-30% is sold in the form of full-colored jadeite. sold in the form of

From this, it can be concluded that most of the retail investors bought half-gamble and full-gamble materials. Among them, there are many channels, such as bidding methods such as open bids and hidden bids. Buyers often have to spend more than twice the price to buy the goods they want.

It can be said that Myanmar has maximized its profits and successfully raised the price of jadeite time and time again. This situation has also led to a rise in the price of jadeite in the mainland.

"So, as long as you can eat a part of the 30% or so, you can meet the needs of the Lin family." Zhang Jun said.

Lin Hui shook his head: "It's too difficult. If you buy from the 30% of the source, it is basically difficult to make money, because the cost is too high. In fact, the mainland accounts for about 70% of the world's jadeite sales. , and 80% of the jadeite is processed in the mainland. In this case, Myanmar naturally wants to control the downstream market of jadeite. The establishment of the Jadeite Gang is reasonable. With it, others will not be able to eat meat."

Zhang Jun smiled: "That's not necessarily the case, uncle, the source of the Lin family's jadeite is on my shoulders, and the price can also be discounted."

Lin Hui's eyes lit up, and he no longer thought that Zhang Jun was talking big, so he nodded and said, "Okay, if you really have the ability to supply the Lin family, the Lin family will definitely support you in turn."

Zhang Jun smiled "hehe" and said, "The purpose of cooperation is a win-win situation."

The two talked until eleven o'clock, and Zhang Jun left a deep impression on his future father-in-law. When he left, Lin Hui said to Lin Xian: "Xiao Xian, when Tianxing Jewelry gets goods in the future, it can be merged with Lin's Jewelry, so that we can get a bigger discount."

Lin Xian was overjoyed, thanked Lin Hui, and said seriously: "Father, we will not let you down!"

Lin Hui showed a kind expression, and said in a gentle voice: "Xiaoxian, sometimes when father does things, he will inevitably put the interests of the family first, which will make you feel wronged and uncomfortable. But a father is a father, and he will always think about his daughter. When you need help, Dad will be the first to stand up."

It was rare for Lin Xian to see Lin Hui expressing her heart so emotionally. She had a sore nose, red eye circles, and nodded vigorously: "Dad, I know."

Lin Hui has a daughter and two sons, of which Lin Xian is the oldest. The three children usually call Lin Hui "Father", which is a rigid and serious title, which also shows how strict and almost unreasonable his usual tutoring is.

This "Dad" shocked Lin Hui, nodded, and said, "Okay, you can stay or go about your own affairs, and I won't bother you."

In the end, Zhang Jun left, but Lin Xian stayed. That night, the father and daughter had a long talk, and the barrier between them gradually disappeared. And Zhang Jun went to visit Professor Guo late at night.

Liu Ling and Liu Ziguang are going to pick up a painting tomorrow. Although they don't know what it is, Zhang Jun knows it must be very valuable, otherwise Liu Ziguang won't let Liu Ziguang come and pick it up in person.

He is still a layman when it comes to calligraphy and painting, so it is necessary to bring Professor Guo with him, so that there will be no surprises.

It was already midnight at this time, and Zhang Jun had already called Professor Guo on the phone in advance, so he knocked on the door twice, and Guo Lan opened the door, saying, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Zhang Jun said apologetically, "I'm sorry to disturb your estimate."

"Since when have you been so polite?" Guo Lan said lightly, "Come in."

In the room, Professor Guo was reading a book on the sofa. When he saw Zhang Jun coming, he quickly waved and said with a smile: "Zhang Jun is here, please sit down. You called me earlier and said you have something to do with me?"

Zhang Jun nodded, and said: "Uncle Guo, I would like to ask you to go with me to a place tomorrow and give a painting a hand."

Professor Guo laughed as soon as he heard it: "It's easy for me to make a big deal. Besides porcelain, I am best at calligraphy and painting. I can help you take a look."

Zhang Jun said with a smile, "I'm relieved to have Uncle Guo on board." Then he took out a jewelry box and handed it to Professor Guo, saying, "Uncle Guo is here, I don't have anything to sell, so I'll give this emerald pipe to Guo." Uncle."
