How to make something that may not be valuable valuable valuable?

Maybe many ordinary people, including those who have just become businessmen, will use many practical methods to turn this thing into a commodity and then become valuable.

The most common example is to increase the added value of this worthless thing and use the added value to support its high cost.

For example, paleontological fossils inlaid with gold and precious stones are widely distributed in the world, almost everywhere.

The first batch of people who found paleontological fossils did sell them at a good price, but as people found that as long as they had a hoe in their hand, chose a suitable place, and then dug down, they could find some fossils as long as their luck was not too bad, the price of paleontological fossils began to plummet rapidly.

From being respected as "historical memory" to "historical pages" and finally "historical garbage", this process has not evolved for a long time.

However, there are also some examples against the trend. Some people will choose some relatively complete and beautiful fossils, and then inlay some gemstones, gold or other valuable jewelry according to the outline.

They made these fossils inlaid with expensive materials look glittering, which made people associate it with wealth at once. Coupled with a false and outrageous story, these fossils sold at a high price by relying on added value.

This is the way many people will choose - if you want to sell a worthless thing at a price, let the added value work. Many semi official authorities will also use the added value as an example to popularize some success studies that may not succeed.

However, for capitalists, to make a worthless thing valuable, they only need to stir up the conceptual value that does not exist at all, but there is a premise that it must be rare.

The rarity here is not strictly "rare", "uncommon" or "solitary". This rarity is just a concept.

A successful capitalist can find a "rare product" from a million of the same flowing commodities. For example, a special color change, a small defect, something different from others can make the commodity rare and stir it up.

This commodity will soon appear in newspapers and public opinion, and every appearance is accompanied by its soaring value.

If it is just a simple commodity, the auction will be a good way. Some commodities can always become miracles at the auction, which can create some demand. Then they will wait for the last fool to take over.

The same is true now. These businessmen who have made a decision to take shares in Lynch's Star Trading Company have begun to stir up the company before they have officially become investors.

Lynch gave them a valuation of 50 million, so how to ensure that they will not lose money after their investment?

In fact, it is very simple. If the value of the company in people's eyes exceeds 500 million or even 10 billion, no matter how they invest, they will not lose money, but will make a lot of money.

But this requires a process, which is the last situation many entrepreneurs with ideals want to face. The operation and operation of capital will destroy their dreams, because the games of numbers and concepts are too happy compared with dreams.

In just one day, the potential and market value evaluation of interstellar trading company has risen from Lynch's empty 50 million to 70 million. With the next large-scale construction, this number may continue to rise.

Some people must know that this company is not worth so much money, but as a qualified businessman or speculator, they don't mind participating in this game. Just like in the current financial market, not every participant doesn't know what happened.

And some people who really don't know what is happening to the company may think they are very smart to observe for a period of time and then consider entering the site when they are sure that it is true and has potential.

But when they think about it and make a good decision, it is often the end of the situation.

The mayor's question was also a bit exciting. He didn't know that Lynch, a small company, could have valued so much money. If he had known earlier, he might have made more profits.

Of course, in Baylor, the federal law does not stipulate that politicians must and must not engage in any investment, but the censorship system will be more strict than ordinary people, but most politicians will not end in person. They will have agents.

"I have a nephew who is very interested in your company..." the mayor smiled. "Are young people like this and full of energy, so they don't know what to face in the future?"

It seems like a kind of emotion, but it is more to express their attitude through these words. How can Lynch, who has experienced many years of training, not read it?

He also shook off his napkin and spread it on his lap. He seemed to say casually, "do you have his contact information? Maybe we young people will have a common language." after spreading his napkin, he raised his head and looked directly at the mayor, "of course, we also need the help of the experience and experience of the elderly. After all, we are still young..."

They looked at each other for a moment, about three or five seconds, and determined that there was nothing wrong with each other through their eyes. The mayor put a black business card on the table and pushed it over.

Then the conversation suddenly turned to other things.

"Have you heard any rumors about the relationship with the ristoan group recently?", the mayor used a very common remark as the next introduction, and Lynch nodded in the affirmative.

During this time, no one did not know about it. Lynch even thought that the attitude of the mayor and the governor might be a little too direct and not artistic. They could use another way to solve the current problem, but they didn't do that.

Seeing Lynch nodding, the mayor's expression also changed a little and became a little helpless. He sighed, "in fact, the situation is not optimistic. Neo has been contacting the Conservatives, you know..." he stretched out his index finger and shook a circle in his ear, "there will be some contact between us."

His sense is that there is information transmission between the federal progressive party and the federal conservative party, which is also normal. After all, bailer's Federation is ruled by three parties. Although the federal socialist party is often the same as transparent people, they do exist.

This connection, or exchange, is very necessary to stabilize the political situation of the whole Federation. This is not the era of Empire. People come out of the ignorant feudal rule, and they will not make the mistakes made by those rulers in the past.

When Neo contacted the conservative party, the news was bound to be revealed, including the conditions for Neo to change camp offered by the conservative party, which had been learned by the mayor and the governor.

That's why the governor sent people to support the mayor. It's not without a reason.

"In fact, I don't care if Neo and ristoan can stay in Saibin. I never care about these. I care about how many people in this city are facing no work, difficulties, hunger and so on."

"Shameful Neo and his company regard these people as chips for trading with the government. I won't compromise for my citizens!"

If another impassioned symphony with some tragedies can be played at this time, mayor Langdon may have the opportunity to wait for the hall of this year's Augustine screen award ceremony, at least there will be a nomination of a film emperor.

"My biggest headache now is how to solve tens of thousands of jobs in case they really leave..." he said, his eyes always stay on Lynch.

When he heard that Lynch's company was valued at $70 million at noon, he realized that maybe this is a chip that can be used. The value of $70 million needs people to create. It can't be born out of thin air, otherwise it can't stand the examination of various departments and people.

Since someone needs to create these values, can Lynch, who may have solved 500 jobs for the mayor when his value is less than 1 million, solve more jobs for him when his value is more than 70 million?

Not to mention 70 jobs with 500 people, there must be at least 35 jobs with 500 people, right?

For the sake of that damn nephew, there must be 20 jobs for 500 people, right?

Lynch didn't answer. It was really difficult to answer. He was very good at describing a grand blueprint for the future for others, but the mayor asked him to come up with practical things as soon as he spoke.

The salary of 1000 people is 200000 per month. If he employs 5000 people, he will pay 1 million per month just for salary. Even if his company is valued at 100 million, it can't stand their tossing and turning.

Lynch's silence makes the mayor realize that he can't treat Lynch as a young man completely. If Lynch says he can't do it, or says he can solve part of it, these can be used by the mayor.

But silence is hard to do. If you say he doesn't agree, he doesn't say it directly, but you ask him to agree, and he doesn't nod.

After a few seconds of silence, he changed his attitude by saying, "you are all businessmen. Maybe you can better understand the reasons why they do this. What difficulties do you think you have faced in the process of starting a business?"

Lynch raised his eyebrows and showed some smiles on his face. These smiles soon became bright. "Mr. Mayor, I have faced many difficulties, but you know, I am a businessman with a sense of social responsibility. Some I can solve, but some I can't solve. Maybe you can give me some constructive suggestions!"

The mayor didn't take the call immediately. He just thought, "we can discuss it."
