Chapter 154: I Want Le Shi Video Platform



Chen Yiyang learned about the nuances of the pink sheet market from Yue Ting.

He immediately realized that if his negotiations with Zheng Lu didn't go well, he could acquire a large number of Kuxing's shares from the pink sheet market.

The rule of the pink sheet market is that there are no rules.

He could buy as he pleased.

Since Kuxing's reputation is currently quite bad, few people are buying their stocks even on the pink sheet market.

Entering at this low price now would be a hugely profitable deal for Chen Yiyang.

Once Kuxing overcomes its difficulties and redevelops, the value of these stocks could increase tenfold.

"By the way, Yiyang, does your family have any special antiques, like those China Merchants Bank stocks?"

Yue Ting abruptly changed the subject.

"Why?" Chen Yiyang asked Yue Ting.

"I need to handle some troubles for someone domestically, and I need a few items as gifts." Yue Ting responded vaguely to this question.

He obviously didn't want Chen Yiyang to know the details.

"What value of antiques are you looking for?" Chen Yiyang asked directly.

"Worth several hundred million, preferably something like the China Merchants Steam Navigation Company stocks, recognized by everyone." Yue Ting said tentatively.

Although the news often says this antique is worth hundreds of millions, and that one is worth billions,

truly billion-dollar antiques are exceedingly rare.

Especially antiques recognized by the mass market and worth billions.

For instance, antiques like Heavenly Pearls, Yixing teapots, chicken cup, Chicken Blood Stones.

Although the media hypes them to be worth tens of millions, even billions,

in reality, those are just small circles inflating prices among themselves.

If you try to sell them in the mass market, no one would buy them.

Otherwise, a celebrity who owns antiques worth billions wouldn't set aside pride to sell products through live streams, refusing to sell their collection to settle debts.

No one wants to take over.

"I do have one. Although its value isn't confirmed, if auctioned, it wouldn't be too low."

"What is it?" Yue Ting got excited.

He felt that he was right, that the younger brother's family background wasn't simple.

"It's a Man Qing Dynasty Ministry of War Seal, the one lost during the Jiaqing period," Chen Yiyang briefly explained the story of the seal.

Though the antique is only from the Qing Dynasty, its story is quite full.

If confirmed as genuine, it has significant historical value.

Since very few authentic Ministry of War Seals from a dynasty have survived.

"Is this really in your family's possession?" Yue Ting wasn't expecting Chen Yiyang to have treasures of this caliber.

There are plenty of Man Qing descendants in the Imperial Capital, many of whom are now highly powerful.

For such people, this treasure is something they can't trade even for Han or Tang antiques.

"Give it to me for a billion?" Yue Ting immediately proposed.

He really needed this item as a gift.

"It's inconvenient for me to receive money from you," Chen Yiyang didn't mind dealing with scammers.

But the prerequisite was not receiving their money.

Who knows if their funds are clean and if taking them will cause trouble?

If it's dirty money, it might be frozen once received.

So, to make a transaction, the other party's assets must be clean.

"What's inconvenient about it?" Yue Ting didn't understand Chen Yiyang's concerns and said directly, "I can wire the money to your overseas account. You can figure out how to bring it back, or leave it abroad for your own use."

"I don't want money," Chen Yiyang thought through the other party's assets and did come up with something he wanted.

"You still have ownership of the Le Shi Video platform, right? I want that."

Hearing this, Yue Ting's expression changed at once.

After a long pause, he said, "Le Shi is no longer under my name, they're independently operated now."

Like I'd believe that.

Chen Yiyang didn't believe that Le Shi had no relation to Yue Ting.

You should know, the most valuable part of Le Shi isn't the video platform, but the multitude of highly valuable copyrights it holds.

Most notably, The Legend of Zhen Huan.

This is a quality asset, generating several million in annual copyright income, enough to keep a small company comfortable.

Chen Yiyang has already invested significantly in the film industry; having a video platform would greatly facilitate future business.

So when Yue Ting inquired about his high-value antiques,

Chen Yiyang mentioned the existence of the Man Qing Ministry of War Seal, wanting to exchange it for the Le Shi Video platform.

"That's a shame," Chen Yiyang replied with feigned disappointment, "If Le Shi is no longer yours, let's drop the deal."

"Should I find out who has Le Shi now, and we can discuss it tomorrow?"

"Alright," Chen Yiyang nodded.

He didn't mind staying in Singapore for another day.

After saying this, Yue Ting stood up and left.

Clearly, he was also very conflicted.

"Haha, young brother, you're ruthless," Huang Yuqiu said to Chen Yiyang after Yue Ting left, "Yue Ting only has this clean asset left, and you demanded his life."

"He's the one who asked for an antique worth over a billion. I brought it up; there's no way he'd buy it with cash.

If I just wanted money, putting it up for auction would likely yield more than a billion easily."

"Indeed," Huang Yuqiu understood the weight the Man Qing Ministry of War Seal carried for some Man Qing descendants.

A billion isn't much.

If hyped up at auction, it could easily exceed a billion.

It's foolish for Yue Ting to think he could buy such a treasure with just money.

"He's in a big bind domestically. This concerns whether a very important fund can be obtained. Maybe he'll compromise tomorrow," Huang Yuqiu hinted to Chen Yiyang.

Chen Yiyang understood.

So no hurry now, see what happens tomorrow.

After parting with Huang Yuqiu, Chen Yiyang took a taxi alone to Singapore's flea market and purchased the golden camera mentioned in the scavenger intel.

The Leica golden commemorative camera is highly sought after in the camera collecting circles.

Especially now, camera enthusiasts usually aren't short on money.

However, this camera ended up in the flea market unpurchased because the previous owner, for some unknown reason, covered it with childlike doll stickers, making it look undesired.

As a result, it didn't look like a Leica golden commemorative camera.

Chen Yiyang spent just over a thousand to buy it.

Returning to the hotel, he spent some time peeling off the stickers, revealing the camera's original appearance.

Leica golden commemorative camera.
