Wenzhou businessman buys 2 million racing pigeons to become a new favorite of rich Chinese

Hangzhou, April 13th. On January 28th this year, PIPA, the top foreign racing pigeon auction website, auctioned the famous pigeons, the chairman of China Zhenyu Holding Group Co., Ltd., and Wenzhou businessman Hu Zhenyu, with a value of 250,400 Euros (equivalent to RMB). More than 2 million RMB won the "beautiful life" of famous pigeons, setting a new record in the history of pigeon racing.

The previous high pigeon auction price record was maintained by the Japanese’s “European Diamond” of 170,000 euros (more than 140 million yuan). The total price of the more than 200 pigeons auctioned was as high as 1.368 million euros, which also set a record high in the total auction sales of pigeon racing in the world.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the rich in China have been snapping up contemporary art, top wines and some of the world’s expensive cars. Now they have included the pigeons in a list they must have.

Belgium is the world racing pigeon kingdom. The racing pigeon heaven network in the country is currently the world's rated racing pigeon auction platform. The reporter contacted the website's liaison officer in China, Xiang Xiangxiang. He told the reporter of the China-Singapore website that 90% of auctions for foreign racing pigeons are currently traded online, and about 100 pigeons are sold every week. The Chinese from 2005 to participate in the auction, from the initial no-person participation increased to the current proportion of 39%, mostly in Beijing.

For the name of pigeons, Xiang Xiangxiang revealed that the “beautiful life” of expensive pigeons captured by Wenzhou businessmen this year has risen by about 50% compared with the “Milestones” bought by the Japanese last year, which is still relatively high.

The pigeon racing website revealed that the price of the top pigeons has increased by 2-3 times in 10 years.

“Stimulated by the demand from Chinese buyers, our business is getting better and better. There are also many buyers from Japan and the United States, but these markets can not be compared with China.” Chinese employee Yi Minna of Dove Paradise Network interviewed by the media Said.

More than 2 million photographed Wenzhou businessman Hu Zhenyu of the pigeon racing auction record as the main ship and sea transporter. He is also a pigeon racing enthusiast. According to him, the investment in breeding pigeons has exceeded 30 million yuan since 2003. The renminbi, which has more than 1,000 pigeons, is just about 500 yuan in the amount of feed money it needs to pay every day. Hu Zhenyu originally built a loft with more than 100 square meters and used all imported mahogany, which cost about 1 million yuan.

2 million pigeons are expensive?

Xiang Xiangxiang, the China liaison officer of Pigeon Paradise Network, stated that the value of pigeons depends on pedigree and performance.

The “beautiful life” purchased by Wenzhou Hu Zhenyu was famous and the lineage was derived from the Beat Veenstra. Since 2009, he has won seven foreign competition championships.

Therefore, Hu Zhenyu believes that this pigeon bought is only a high price for the transaction, but it is not expensive. Many racing pigeons are worth more than this pigeon, but the owners of those racing pigeons do not want to sell it.

For China’s high-profile promotion of national racing pigeon auctions, Xiang Yunxiang, the China liaison officer of Pigeon Paradise Network, told China News that this to some extent also reflected the decline of the domestic real economy, the devaluation of the currency, and the slowdown of domestic economic development. Entrepreneurs choose new investments.

The shipping industry and the shipbuilding industry where Wen Zhen Hu Zhenyu is located are undoubtedly the hardest-hit areas that have been affected by the foreign economic situation.

According to new data from the China National Association of Shipbuilding Industry, January-February 2012, China's three major shipbuilding targets for shipbuilding completions, orders for new ships, and orders for hand-held vessels all dropped significantly year-on-year. According to the association’s forecast, in 2012, due to the weak recovery of the world economy, the ship market continued to slump, and there was no sign of recovery in shipping prices. China’s shipbuilding industry will enter a period of deep adjustment.

According to a staff member of Zhejiang Pigeon Pigeon Association, there are currently around 300,000 people in China playing with pigeons, and Zhejiang Province has more than 13,000 people. The pigeons still need a certain amount of money. Many entrepreneurs who love racing pigeons will hire professional pigeon farmers to raise pigeons for him, and then pay a commission and a certain percentage of prize money.

According to him, at present, some people in Taiwan will race betting games like betting balls, but this situation is very rare on the mainland.

Xiang Yunxiang, China liaison officer of Pigeon Paradise Network, feels that the racing pigeon industry is not the same as the real estate industry. It is not suitable for investment. There are too many uncontrollable factors for the value of the pigeons. It is different from the Tibetan mastiff, except for the quality of the pigeons. Mainly depends on the performance of the game. Even if the descendants of expensive pigeons cannot produce pigeons with cheap results, it is very difficult to stir.

However, the Chinese loyalty shots have caused repercussions in the racing pigeon world. According to the report of The Telegraph (The Telegraph) in the UK, experienced racing pigeons have complained that the price of pigeons is too high and is losing to another continent. (Finish)
