A minority investment that can make lots of money

In the era of negative interest rates, the money in various areas of public investment is not very profitable - the stock market is changing rapidly, the property market is constantly regulated, and gold and silver costs are too high. What kind of investment can make the value of money in our hands appreciate?

Today we introduce you to some niche investment products. Maybe you have some of them now, but they haven't noticed their investment value before.

However, since it is risky to invest, niche investment is also the case, and sometimes it is even easier for the market to soar and swell due to a small market. Before you start, you have to study and study.

Variety A villain book rose 500 times in 30 years, commonly known as the comic book comic book, is winning more and more people's favor with its stability and high yield.

One shot of 200,000 "I have a 1979 edition of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms comic strip, including a supplemental version of a total of 60 books, the current market price can probably sell to 6,000 yuan. This villain book is still the 1980s When I was at school, I was only about 2 cents at the time," said Mr. Li, a collector of comics. In 30 years, an obscure villain book, its price rose from 2 cents to 100 yuan, the price rose 500 times.

Considering the long collection cycle of comics and the influence of factors such as changes in the purchasing power of currencies during the collection and inflation, what is the investment income of comics?

Comprehensively calculating the inflation coefficient for 30 years, the purchasing power of 12 yuan in 1979 was roughly equal to the current 240 yuan, so in fact this set of comic books has appreciated about 5,760 yuan. And this kind of income is not the highest. At present, in the comic book investment community, famous paintings and well-preserved rare versions of comic book prices are not uncommon, and the famous comic artist Liu Jicui's comic strip “Chicken Maoxin” was sold in a famous book. The price on the website reached 40,000 yuan. A Hong Kong-published ** comic book “Youth Mao Zedong” was auctioned at an auction price as high as 200,000 yuan.

Inadvertently investing in exchange for valuable wealth In recent years, with the comic book selling again, people called Mr. Li's hobby comic book reading and collecting people “friends”. As a "lianyou", Mr. Li's home-living comic book is nearly a thousand copies.

From the student time, Mr. Li began to collect comics. "Don't look at 2 cents now. In the early 80s, when I spent only one or two yuan a month on a monthly basis, in order to buy comic books, then every month I All of them are not used to eating, and they don't even eat ice cream, so they bought books.” Mr. Li introduced that series of comics like “Three Kingdoms” and “Water Margin” were all one-on-one and relatively small at the time. The new one is coming. I go to the bookstore almost every day to see if I'm afraid to sell it. The entire "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" spent more than ten dollars but it took nearly five years.

In the 1990s, influenced by Japanese anime, etc., the comic book market gradually shrank. In recent years, the villain book has gradually increased in value. The value of nearly a thousand comic strips in Mr. Li’s hand has also gone up. “A few people’s books bought in the past are now at least a few dozen yuan. I never thought of a book for the villain. It becomes a valuable collectible, but now I will make use of the books in my hand to invest, but I will buy more and sell less, on the one hand I think it will continue to appreciate, and on the Other hand it will be a bit reluctant."

The reprinted book is also favored. With the expansion of the investment crowd, the range of comic book investment has also extended from the old comic strip to the reprinted comic strip. In recent years, some publishing houses have republished the old version of the comic book. The price is tens of yuan per copy, but there are still many people who buy it. After a few hands, the price has gone up a lot.

According to Wei Chaodong, Secretary-General of the Shenyang Cixihua Fans, the comic book secretary of the Thousand-North East Cigarette Collection Association, the comic book has become popular again in recent years. Many collectors are aware that the comic book in their hands has a huge appreciation space, and they are also keen to invest in comic books.

At the same time, some investors who did not originally have comic books also began to engage in comic book transactions. A rough estimate of Shenyang's comic lovers has already exceeded 1,000.

Variety 2 total value of 1.88 yuan coin sold 180000 points to buy sugar, 5 points to buy a root popsicle, which is a lot of 70 after 80 memory.

Today, these small denomination coins are often used for payment and are rejected without any use. However, in the eyes of collectors who invest coins, some rare varieties may be the down payment for a house.

A set of 86 Great Wall currency equal to a car "Five Heavenly Kings" is a money collector's love for coin collections, referring to the 5 cents issued in 1979, 2 cents and 5 cents issued in 1980, and issued in 1981. 1 point and 5 cents.

Although the total denomination of the five coins was only 0.18 yuan, the current market price of the collectors is around 5,000 yuan.

In addition, there are still many "black horses" in the coins. For example, the Great Wall version of the currency set (7 pieces, denomination of 1.88 yuan) issued in 1986 currently has a full set price of about 180,000 yuan. In July, the quotation of "Beijing Post" was even as high as 200,000 yuan, which was used as a down payment for houses in Changsha. No problem. Among them, the price of a single coin of two centimeters is as high as 30,000 yuan.

According to insiders, the set of coins produced only 660 sets of fine coinage in the same year. It is only used to meet the needs of foreign tourists who purchase foreign souvenirs for sale. It is extremely rare, and the high price is not difficult to understand.

Lu Po-hsiung, a poor collector of treasures, said that although coins are not as fragile as banknotes, collectors still need to pay attention to keeping coins.

In the United States, the appearance of coins is divided into 70 grades by standard. Even adding only a scratch that can be seen with a magnifying glass or a black spot with a small eye can cause the coin to drop by more than one level. Although domestic standards are less stringent, poor quality often affects prices.

Rare and good coins are often "the emperor's daughter does not marry", but if the product is not good, in his hands like a hot potato, because there may not be willing to accept the next family.

Lu Boxiong reminded investors that to maintain the appearance of coins must use the correct method of preservation. It is not appropriate to play bare coins by hand because the places where the coins are touched by hands may be corroded and turned black. If the coin is dirty, it is best not to clean it to avoid scratches. The simplest way to isolate the air is to soak the coins in absolute alcohol.

Part of the numismatic currency Current market price 1981 1 cent coin 1500 yuan 1981 5 cent coin 1200 yuan 1981 set coin 16,000 yuan 1982 set coin 13,000 yuan 1983 set coin 6500 yuan 1984 set coin 16,000 yuan 1985 set coin 3 Million yuan in 1986 sets of coins 200,000 yuan varieties of three comics a breakthrough million. Not long ago, the first comic book auction in Hangzhou was successful, the total bid of 222 cartoons without top auction, the total turnover of up to 11.8 million yuan.

For the first time "testing the water" will hand over 10 million transcripts, and people in the industry shouted "I did not expect"!

At present, in the domestic comic industry, the works of Feng Zikai and Huang Yongyu have the highest price. They have reached 20,000 to 60,000 yuan per square foot, and the quality has exceeded one million yuan.

Industry expert Li Qing analyzed that comics are valued by the art auction industry and are related to the downturn in the real estate market and the stock market. A large number of hot money entered, leading to the soaring price of Chinese calligraphy and painting auctions in recent years, and the cartoons with low prices have also attracted the attention of investors.

Song Xiaojun, deputy secretary-general of the Cartoonists Association of Shandong Province, stated that comics are a relatively calm art investment market. The overall price of the works is still relatively low. Compared with the artistic height and historical status of Chinese comics, their value and collection significance are not A full understanding of the market is a good time to enter.

Industry insider Li Qing told collectors that to pay attention to investment returns, we must pay attention to the value orientation of comic collections. While valuing the ideological, artistic and humorous aspects of the works, we must also place them in the historical background and specific era of the works. Among them, consider the significance of their particular collection.

"Era Value" and "Symbol Value" are also key points in the collection of comic books. Investors can choose to collect masterpieces from representative masters of various periods in China during more than one hundred years.

In addition to comic books, CD discs that movie fans and music fans like to collect are becoming emerging investors.

Reduction of goods promotion and promotion value In February of this year, Ms. Cui, who likes to collect genuine movie discs, purchased a set of “Titanic” DVDs, including collector's editions and albums, at a price of 108 yuan at the time of purchase. . When Ms. Cui visited the Internet yesterday, she found that the price of this set of DVDs had risen to 198 yuan, nearly doubled.

According to the store's introduction, the price increase is due to the fact that the manufacturers of video discs have gradually reduced their supply this year, so the price of this set of video discs has also increased. Ms. Cui said, “The last time the purchase factory only provided two sets of inventory, the manufacturers indicated that they may terminate the production of this type of disc.” Ms. Cui said that some people have been bidding on the Internet for $220 to purchase their own video discs, but she decided to continue Wait and see.

Second-hand dish prices did not fall, but heavy metal, U2... Nearly 200 genuine music CD discs were placed in Ms. Ren’s home. Ms. Ren’s spending on purchasing CDs for five years had also exceeded RMB 10,000. According to Ms. Ren, these Collector's Edition discs are mostly purchased on the Internet. The other part is purchased from other channels. Prices range from RMB 200 to RMB 700. Although some discs are second-hand goods, the prices are reversed. Will be higher than the original price.

This reporter learned that the original price of the Lincoln Park's member album is about 200-400 yuan, and some discs may change their price by two or three hundred dollars. Ms. Ren said that although he does not simply buy these discs with the investment mentality, it can also be used as a valuable asset that can be appreciated, and the number will continue to expand in the future.

Variety of five old Xinhua dictionary market prices up to thousand yuan Recently, the reporter learned from the Wuhan collection products market, the collection of ancient rare books subject matter was significantly warming, a first edition of the "Xinhua Dictionary" market value has reached a thousand or so.

The Xinhua Dictionary's circulation ranks behind the Bible and reached 400 million copies by 2009. The first edition of the "Xinhua Dictionary" was published in 1953. At that time, the circulation was not large. However, due to the relatively large number of editions of the dictionary, most people had poor awareness of their preservation. Therefore, this version was generally not available on the market. Today's market value Already in the thousand or so.

Jiang Xiaoping, a collector of the Wuhan collection market, told reporters that he was looking for this version of the dictionary and was also looking for a few years. At the beginning of this year, he learned that a Tibetan friend in Nanjing had this book and had several telephone exchanges. He still did not want to transfer. He learned that he likes to collect famous inscriptions. It is just that he owns a famous master's signature book that he wants to collect, so that he can exchange his half-time Xinhua Dictionary.

This version of the "Xinhua Dictionary" is arranged alphabetically; in the subsequent amendments, the Chinese Pinyin alphabetic order was adopted and transferred to the Commercial Press.

Experts reminded niche investors that the risk is not small. Jiang Yan, researcher of the WTO Research Institute of Liaoning Academy of Social Sciences, believes that investment in comic books and CD albums is constantly rising. However, considering that the niche investment itself is relatively small, the acceptance of the crowd is relatively small. Less, commodities have more risks than their mass investment products.

In addition, investing in minority investment products depends on market conditions. Unlike antiques, gold, etc., comics and CD products have their own cycle of value manifestation and are affected by the market supply and demand. And books and CDs are all bad products. The discs have a short life span, and they need to be carefully stored.

Industry observation hot money intrusion crowded away true collector 2011 Chinese art spring season gradually descended. Looking back at this spring season, Nanjing senior collectors who participated in multiple auctions all expressed that they could not afford it!

In particular, Chinese paintings and calligraphy, such as Zhang Daqian, Qi Baishi famous painting and calligraphy, the price is unaffordable "unbearable price." "I tried to cite it a few times. I didn't grab any of it and I felt a little lost in playing with friends." A senior collector analyzes that hot money speculation and the return of Chinese painting values ​​are all factors that lead to the "high price" of works of art.

The recent shot of Zhang Daqian's Bishan Water, Wu Xia Qing Qiu, was shot at a high price of 38 million yuan. In more than three years, her value has leapt more than 30 times.

“The downturn in the financial market has brought about a shift in the direction of investment.” Wang Dongwei, manager of the Painting and Calligraphy Department of a company in Jiangsu, told reporters that with the financial sector entering the art market, real collectors will become increasingly unaffordable. The proportion of funds blindly following the trend is very small, and more is an orderly strategic entry. Such as high-end gift market, cultural industry exchanges and so on. According to preliminary estimates, about 70% of the paintings and paintings were snatched by the new funds during the Spring Auction.

In addition, the art market does not "restrict purchases", but it is also a form of assets that does not require "real-name system," which of course attracts more funds. Wang Dongwei said that it is already possible to offload several million of its collections to hundreds of millions, and once the turning point occurs, weak links will appear.

There are many aspects to investing in comic book investment. The industry divides the comic book according to the comic artist's pen painter, story theme, publishing age, well-preserved degree, and number of deposits. The higher the comic book's collection value, the higher the value. The publishing period of the old comic book was mainly concentrated in the 50s to 80s of the last century, and the comic strip of the old version of the 50's was of high value.

CD is not easy to save For all kinds of optical discs, we can now accurately say the actual life span is about 20 years, in theory, the disc can be stored for up to 100 years. However, if used and stored improperly, it can be damaged for years.

Coins Beware of fakes In 1981, a one-cent coin was a high-risk area for falsification, and some were made by changing the year. For example, changing 1984's 4 to 1 increased the value of a thousand times.

There is a large amount of dictionaries, and the circulation of the classic books is very large, and they have a long shelf life. It is not easy to find good appreciation varieties. When choosing a famous manuscript, you should pay attention to selecting famous masterpieces. You must choose those that can withstand history and time. * Works with rich connotation, far-reaching significance, philosophical, humorous, and graphic design.
