Chapter 64 Jade Beauty
These words completely shocked Zhou Zhenghong.
He had no doubts about Gu Ning's ability in gambling on stones, and when he heard her say that she had her own techniques, he felt that her abilities should not be underestimated.
But what shocked him even more was that Gu Ning actually handed over the company to him for full management and gave him 20% of the shares.
Does she trust herself to this extent?
What could be more convincing than having your ability recognized and your character trusted? So, without a doubt, Zhou Zhenghong was tempted.
Wealth is secondary. He doesn't like living a life of mediocrity even more, which makes him feel that his life is in vain.
Without any hesitation, Zhou Zhenghong immediately stood up, looked at Gu Ning, and said solemnly: "Miss Gu, I, Zhou Zhenghong, am willing to follow you and will never betray you."
At the same time, Zhou Zhenghong secretly made up his mind to accomplish something big with Gu Ning.
The company was temporarily located in City G. Why was it temporarily? Because Gu Ning planned to move the company's headquarters to the capital while she was waiting for her to go to college.
The capital is the place she is familiar with and where she wants to settle down.
The jewelry brand is called "Jade Beauty" and the company name is "Jade Beauty Jewelry Company", which mainly deals in jade jewelry.
As for jewelry made of other materials, such as gold, silver, diamonds, etc., they will be involved in the future, but not for the time being.
Because the jadeite Gu Ning has is at least mid-to-high-quality jadeite, and there are also top-quality and ultimate jadeite, so Gu Ning wants to create high-end products. A piece of mid-to-high-quality jadeite jewelry costs hundreds of thousands of yuan, and a top-quality jadeite jewelry costs millions or even tens of millions.
Although not many people can afford it, you can make a lot of money if you sell one.
Zhou Zhenghong was responsible for finding shops and processing factories in City G, hiring designers, sculptors, and employees, as well as purchasing stone-cutting and processing machines.
Zhou Zhenghong understood this matter better than Gu Ning, so Gu Ning didn't say anything more.
Zhou Zhenghong already has a candidate for the designer and sculptor, who is his former subordinate. After Zhou Fu Jewelry changed its owner, Zhou Zhenghong's original people naturally could not be retained.
Because Zhou Zhenghong is a good person, these people have a good relationship with him and even helped him after he went bankrupt.
Although their designs and carvings are not top-notch, they are not much worse than those so-called second- and third-level masters. They just lack a platform for development.
The company's initial registered capital is 100 million yuan, which will be increased later.
For the jewelry industry, a registered capital of 100 million is not a lot, and it is relatively small, because a large amount of money is needed to purchase jade raw materials. But Gu Ning does not need it, because she already has a source of goods, and it is worth 600 to 700 million.
So, in terms of the total capital, it is about 700 to 800 million, which is considered a big industry.
In the future, the supply of goods will be the same as it is now, and we can get something for nothing, so there is no need to use this money to stock up on goods.
Gu Ning now has over 200 million in cash, and after investing 100 million in jewelry, he still has over 100 million left.
After taking out two pieces of top-quality jadeite and selling them to Zhao Yuefeng and Mr. Fu, he will get another 70 to 80 million yuan.
Gu Ning asked Zhou Zhenghong to help her buy a fully furnished single apartment in a residential area in G City that was closer to the city center so that she would have a place to stay when she came and she couldn't always stay in a hotel.
"Oh, Boss, the money from the hibiscus seed..." Zhou Zhenghong thought of the raw material they bought together, and Gu Ning's half of the money! That is nine million.
"Then use the nine million to buy an apartment and some initial expenses!" Gu Ning said.
Gu Ning isn't so kind as to give away nine million for nothing!
"Okay," Zhou Zhenghong replied.
After dinner, Gu Ning told Zhou Zhenghong that he wanted to sort out some raw materials.
Gu Ning had already unraveled several pieces of jade today, so he didn't want to unravel them again in public for fear of causing a big commotion.
Zhou Zhenghong said that the rough material shop can rent a stone-cutting machine and there is a separate room available.
So, Gu Ning and Zhou Zhenghong went to a woolen material shop.
At this time, around one o'clock.
On the way, Gu Ning called Zhao Yuefeng and Mr. Fu respectively, asking them where they were, as he had some top-grade jadeite to sell.
Although Zhao Yuefeng was not in the gambling stone street, he was still in the antique street. Mr. Fu had already gone home, but when he heard that there was top-quality jadeite, he rushed over.
However, because it takes time to cut the stone, Gu Ning asked Zhao Yuefeng to wait for her call.
As for Mr. Fu, Gu Ning also told him not to be anxious, because it would take her at least an hour and a half to cut out the three pieces of raw material, so she asked Mr. Fu to arrive around 3:30.
Gu Ning deliberately separated Zhao Yuefeng and Mr. Fu's schedules to avoid any disputes between them because they liked the same piece of jade.
Although it was a bit unfair to Mr. Fu to let Zhao Yuefeng choose first, Gu Ning didn't care about that. They were all top-quality jadeite anyway.
After arriving at the rough material shop, Gu Ning and Zhou Zhenghong rented a machine and went into a separate room to start cutting the stone.
Gu Ning took out a piece the size of half a football, which contained rough material of top-grade jadeite, and two pieces the size of apples, both of which were top-grade jadeite. One of them was the red jadeite that was almost taken by someone else.
Gu Ning planned to use this piece of jade to make jewelry for Gu Man and Gu Qing.
After Gu Ning drew the lines on the large piece of raw material, he asked Zhou Zhenghong to cut the stone.
Gu Ning first smoothed the skin of the piece of raw material he was going to use.
Although Zhou Zhenghong already believed in Gu Ning's so-called unique skills in gambling on stones, and that almost all the stones she picked would turn out green, he still couldn't help but get excited when he saw them turn out green.
When the market goes up sharply, even more people get excited.
Seeing this, Gu Ning just smiled and said nothing.
When Zhou Zhenghong cut out a big rise, Gu Ning also performed well.
Zhou Zhenghong took a look and gasped in shock. He swallowed hard and his voice trembled unconsciously: "Then, is that red jade?"
"Yes!" Gu Ning responded calmly.
After getting the answer, Zhou Zhenghong almost bit his tongue, and the shock in his heart could not be dispelled.
Soon, the jade in Zhou Zhenghong's hand was also released, and it was as big as two adult palms stacked together.
Seeing the quality of the jadeite, Zhou Zhenghong was shocked: "This, this is top-grade glass jade."
Because it is translucent, it is only a top-grade product, not the best.
At this time, more than half of Gu Ning's red jadeite was exposed. The red color was bright and vivid, and the jade was delicate and transparent. It was a top-grade cockscomb red.
Before Zhou Zhenghong could recover from the shock of the top-quality glass-type jade, he was shocked again by the top-quality cockscomb red. He looked dazed and unable to recover.
"Let's sand down the remaining piece of raw material!" Because Gu Ning didn't have much time, he had to interrupt him while he was distracted.
Zhou Zhenghong reacted and hurriedly took the remaining piece of raw material and started grinding it.
Although Zhou Zhenghong knew that there was jade inside, when he polished out the green, he couldn't help but get excited again and took a breath.
