10 years up 150 times jade priceless

When a jade cost of 20,000 yuan is used by traders in the trading market as low as 13,000 yuan, you will still have a "profiteering" impression on the jade market. Woodman, a financial controller of a company in the United Kingdom, once encountered such “Waterloo”. “There is no quasi-price for jade, it is not like diamonds. How much is the price per carat is clear, so I have to pick a number myself” Woodman explained.

"I have to be beaten to tell the truth."

Woodman's experience just proved that the old saying in the Jade Market: "The truth must be hit by lightning." That is, the prices in the Jade trade are illusions, depending on whether the buyer knows how to re-open the price, and the buyer's dress is for the seller. The judgment is also very important. In Yichang City gold trading circle Nanguo Mall's Yichang jade line, when the financial weekly reporter said that the price is too high, the salesman immediately said he can hit a half fold, the reporter believes that the price is not satisfied, the salesman said that if you are interested in buying, you can ask the company Half discount again. Due to the adjoining “Jade of China” Jieyang, the jade industry in Shantou is quite prosperous.

The same situation is not uncommon in Xishuangbanna, which is adjacent to the jade-producing region of Burma. More than half of the emerald merchants in Myanmar's Man Jinglan Jewellery Street are from Burma. This is a minority area, and the tax policy is more relaxed than that of Tengchong, which is also close to Myanmar. "If we sell a piece of wool, we will probably pay 33% of the tax," said a Taobao boss in Tengchong.

In the Myanmar jade shop of Man Jinglan, when the Money Weekly reporter stated to the Burmese boss that the jade was true or false, the boss immediately issued a certificate of domestic authoritative organization to ensure that he sold it as a genuine product. “For the certification of the authority, consumers see the words “emerald” and “A cargo” on the certificate stamped with stencils, and they believe it. Actually, the profit of jadeite sales varies from several times to several tens of times. "The Jieyang Yangmei seller Ms. Xia, who has sold jade for more than 20 years, told the Money Weekly reporter that the certificate can only be guaranteed to be jade, and it cannot explain the true value of jade.

"Buddle" to do business,

“Yangmei Bang” Myanmar photographed 7 billion in 2008. In 2008, Foshan Pingzhou Jadeware City was started construction. The country’s largest original distribution center for jade was transferred from Tengchong to Guangdong. Tengchong Hehua Township was still a famous carving village in the 40s of the last century. However, by the 1990s, their craft had fallen far behind Jieyang, Guangdong. “We will only carve jade rings and earrings.” At this point, the country's largest collection of jadeite stones and processing bases were transferred from Yunnan to Guangdong.

Ms. Xia is the beauty of Jieyang Yang, and “Yang Meiyu” is appreciated by the world for its carving. “The fine carving can increase the cost of jade several times,” Ms. Xia told the Money Weekly reporter. Xia’s current identity is in addition to the owner of jade jewelry and the boss of Guangzhou Minghui International Jewelry Jade Square. She owns one-third of the square's shops and covers an area of ​​more than 2,000 square meters. The 500 tenants are all engaged in the wholesale and retail of jade articles. A monthly rent of 14 million yuan can be received,” Xia said. The funds for investment properties come from the profit of jadeite transactions in the past 20 years.

90% of the domestic medium- and high-grade jadeite jade are from Yangmei, and over 75% of medium-to-high grade jadeite materials extracted from Burma each year flow to Yangmei. "On the most recent Myanmar trading session, the turnover exceeded 10 billion yuan, 70% of which was Yangmei funds." Ms. Xia said, "Yangmei people have a spirit of cooperation, and often a good stone is a few even more than a dozen to co-promote. No matter what the profit and loss are shared, the funds will be abundant, and all of them will do business with the company. Xia’s family is engaged in jade wholesale in the Yangmei three generations. “I have been in contact with jadeite since I was 20 years old and have been cultivating clients myself. I used to be mostly Taiwanese and Hong Kong people. In the past two years, jade has skyrocketed and there are more customers from Kunming and Beijing.” Ms. Xia also built a small hotel for guests to relax around in Yangmei’s pavilion.

Shopping mall tax 35%,

1 times more expensive than the trading market is the norm. "We generally do peers and regular customers. There are fewer unfamiliar individual consumers." Ms. Xia said that laymen need an authentication certificate to prove the authenticity of jade, but in fact the cost of an identification certificate. It is also worth tens of yuan, and the focus is even if the gap in the profits of real jade is also very large. This certificate cannot be guaranteed.

Ms. Xia suggested that lay consumers still be more secure in shopping malls: “If they are hard to distinguish, they must go to the mall to buy it, and it is normal for the mall to be 1 times more expensive than the trading market. Withdrawing the fees plus taxes will be handed over to 4,000 yuan on average, and the average will be 35%. Therefore, selling 10,000 to the mall in the trading market will require 230,000 to 30,000."

"Emerald is not like a gold diamond, and it doesn't earn money," Ms. Xia told reporters. She had seen 90 million wool materials cut off at a price of only 40 million, and he still has 20 years of experience as an investor. Ms. Xia said she had lost 80% of her career's worst, and now she tends to avoid risks.

Going into Jade: Don't touch the business you don't understand Xu Xianjian, who started from the restaurant business, is also playing on the emerald. As the head of Kinsley Jewellery Company, his company has developed from the original independent mining, engraving and processing, professional wholesale to the current share of 60% Cuiyu wholesale in Hong Kong. , Expanded to 6 monopoly stores in the mainland today.

Xu Xianjian came from a rural family and poverty persisted throughout his childhood. In his youth, he was accompanied by his relatives to work in Hong Kong. From the street selling vegetables to the night market stalls, he slowly grew and expanded his restaurant and dug to the first pot of gold.

In the 1980s, Xuhui returned home to Chaoshan to open sweaters and garment factories. “At that time, staff management experience was very inadequate, and awareness of service and competition was also very weak. Not long after it was opened, it was not that many people had this meaning.” Xu Xianjian Tell the Money Weekly reporter. Xu's products were mainly exported to Japan. After the goods arrived in Japan, the Japanese refused to accept the goods on the grounds of quality problems. The company suffered a catastrophe and Xu Xianjian suffered a “Waterloo” in his career.

At that time, the jade industry of Jieyang Yangmei began to develop with the permission of the policy. Xu Xianjian decided to change careers and lead him into the jade industry under the guidance of a friend. "When I entered, it was actually a climax. Many people poured in all of them and ended up in a bankruptcy. In the final analysis, they were 'gambling' too much," Xu Xianjian said.

Since 1994, the "Jade fever" in Taiwan and Hong Kong has spread to the mainland, and this is exactly the year of commodity buying. Jewellery has become a bestseller. Then, the largest market for jade in Asia has shifted from the Taiwan region to the mainland. .

Xu Xianjian was not in a hurry to buy wool, but first studied with the experts. “Sometimes in order to study the fineness and quality of a stone, I would tirelessly ask many people until I understand it.” Xu told reporters his experience: “No He does not do well.” Now, he has more than 95% judgment ability for stone materials. “This industry is relying on long-term practice experience. Only by buying quality stone materials can we make genuine products.” Because of its professional skills, Has been elected by Hong Kong jewellery industry peers as the Hong Kong Jade Association.

For those who have been “going to the water” for the last two years due to the escalating tide of jade, Xu cautioned: “Don’t touch business that you don’t understand, especially in the jade industry.”
