this man is not calm

Chapter 278: Letting go of the old and bringing in the new

The conversation with my great-grandfather Huang Zhengkuo didn’t last long.

The first day of the new year is not a good time to talk about serious matters. At this time, Jin Shang also felt that it was too early to discuss cooperation with Lao Huang's family. If the other party is too strong and the other party is too weak, whether the so-called reciprocal cooperation can take the lead is a problem.

Not long after, more relatives came to visit. The Jin family and his son did not stay long. They said hello and left.

There were many people and cars on the road, and progress was as slow as a snail.

After finally getting out of the city highway and onto the ring road, it became a little smoother.

The car picked up speed, and Kintoki closed the air-diffusing windows, and the buzzing noise subsided a little.

"What did you say to Lao Huang?"

"You are also called Lao Huang, you are a bad learner."

Jin Shang casually looked at the lampposts that were receding outside the window, and responded calmly,

"The old man, who obviously has good energy, pretended to be very ill, saying that he was dying and wanted to take care of his affairs. He asked me to take care of his useless descendants."

"You agreed?"

"I would agree if I were crazy! However, the Huang family has so much property, it's so coveted."

"Has he penetrated you?"

"Yeah! However, I don't think he told the truth. If he rolls up again, it's almost done, probably..."

"The old man has been cautious all his life and attaches great importance to family property. If it weren't for the wealth that touches people's hearts and the huge amount of wealth, the big family would have been broken up long ago. Now everyone is willing to listen to him, and they hope that they can share more by then. A little property?”

"So, I think what he said has some truth, but I'm not that anxious. I just want to try my tone. Today's Jiangxia Huang is big but not strong. Except for Lao Huang, no one can maintain face and convince the public. The heir appeared. I guess... he was saving it for the sake of love, just in case something goes wrong, so that I could take care of Yi Er. In fact, it’s right to think about it. After all, our father and son have inherited a lot of affection from the old man, even though they don’t have the same surname. "Huang, if you become prosperous in the future, as long as you show a little tendency to look after you, the jackals and tigers and leopards who want to attack you will have to think carefully about it."

Love is worthless if it is said to be useless, but at certain moments, it can indeed play a big role.

"In other words, the old man feels that his health is fine, but he is over ninety after all. He is afraid that if he is not careful, he will have an accident and his future affairs will be difficult, so he has taken insurance with you in advance?"

"If there is really any problem at such an old age, why don't you just say it's gone?"

Even if you have the "Destiny Candlestick" to protect you, it can't guarantee that everything will be fine. As Huang Zhengkuo said, this kind of thing has an excellent icing on the cake effect. It is probably impossible to expect it to provide help in times of need.

After thinking for a while, Lao Jin admonished:

"We still have to be cautious about some things. Especially when it comes to clans. In our traditional culture, people who don't recognize any relatives are very excluded. We don't have to be familiar with them, but we can't add insult to injury. When we can help, we still have to help. This has nothing to do with individuals. It has nothing to do with preferences, it is purely for the sake of good looks and creating a character with clear grievances."

For example, decades ago, Xian Guizhen broke into the house with her children, and Lao Huang's family also compensated her with many good things. Such as stadiums, land, shops and football clubs, etc. To "Jiangxia Huang" a few decades ago, these things were like a drop in the bucket and not worth mentioning, but in the end, they took care of their face clearly and kept all human relations in check.

As far as blood is concerned, we are all relatives. On a larger level, you and I are both "meat eaters". Although today's status has nothing to do with blood, tradition and historical origins, we are on the same level. Class brothers in the camp.

Things are changing, who knows which family will have a genetically mutated evildoer and start to make a fortune?

The Mei family brothers and sisters have been in poverty for so many years, and the middle child has gone to the sea to run a boat. Didn't he come out in the end?

I don't know which ancestor's grave has smoke rising from it. The brothers and sisters are all doing well, and the next generation is not a dandy. It is estimated that the third generation of wealth can be preserved.

Family education and knowledge are unclear. If you want to change your family, sometimes you really need a little luck and a little knowledge.

"That's what I said to the old man, don't count on selling people to help. Within the scope of your ability, a little convenience is the limit. God helps those who help themselves, but they can't support themselves, and external forces can't help. Insufficient ability It’s better to let him be an ordinary citizen and be honest. There are too many demands, and it’s up to him to decide whether he can do it or not. It’s really to the point where his moral character is not matched, which is a disaster rather than a blessing.”

"Within one's power, this word is too subtle."

Jin Shi smiled and said,

"Did the old man tell you how to make your 'power' stronger? When you become stronger, you can naturally help more. If you really reach the level of a giant, even if you don't say anything, you will naturally be surrounded by friends..."

"I can do it without the help of the old Huang family. But with the support of the old man, it is naturally much safer."

"Financing to let their industry enter?"

"I don't want money, I need financing. There are many people in the capital market who are stupid and rush to give away money. I want land, industrial land, commercial land, residential land, anything. The current valuation of real estate in the capital market is still It’s not high. We’re at the end of a round of inflation, and it’s stupid to sell high-quality assets at low prices. Rich people are rushing to counter-cyclically buy lows. The window period is not long, so we have to seize the opportunity.”

"Old Huang is not stupid. He will let you take advantage of this?"

"If you don't let me take advantage, will I care about the life and death of others? This is a mutually beneficial transaction. I actually have an idea, but I don't know how to implement it..."

"Tell me."

Jin Shi asked very curiously. Xiao Jin thought about it for a while and then replied:

"Let the relatives of Lao Huang's family try their best to develop in the entertainment industry where the actual output value is not high, but it is very profitable for individuals. The early Internet was actually a good place for all kinds of monsters to show their magical powers, and After the entertainment industry is combined, there will be a long period of dividends."

This is not a sudden thought of Jin Shang, but a conclusion reached after drawing on the experience of his previous life.

Many of the "leftovers" in the past life have developed in the fields of pop music, film and television dramas, dramas and folk arts. Other industries have strict barriers and are not very friendly to them. Only in this industry, it has a little bit of traditional advantages and is relatively easy to get started. reason.

Not only in China, but also in Europe and the United States, media tycoons, sports business, TV networks, film and television dramas, streaming media, etc. The output value is not necessarily outstanding, but the influence has always been significant.

Before others react, take a few bites of the dividends of the times.

As for what happens next, that is a problem that the next generation needs to deal with.

"Be a singer, a celebrity, or open an advertising media or film and television agency?"

"Don't they boast that they have deep connections and can accomplish anything? They are useless in other areas, but in this area, there is an opportunity to show their talents, especially in the capital?"

Aren't there some dandy boys who call themselves "Beijing Circle", shouting and drinking, and are very arrogant?

If these dandy boys from Lao Huang's family really had the ability, they would organize a bureau. What's the point of staying next to their ancestors?

The colorful world outside is so lively, beautiful female stars, isn’t it fun? You can enjoy the yacht party and the club, having fun and drinking, and you can enjoy it if you have the skills. You don't need to spend all your time here trying to flatter the old man. "I think you think the development speed of film and television media is too slow, and it needs to be expanded as soon as possible to allow more people to participate in it so as to expand its influence, right?"

"Mutual benefit, it's good for everyone. You said those uncles, besides going to the more down-to-earth entertainment industry, what else do they do?"

There are connections, but they are not particularly useful. They try to push each other down, flatter each other in business, and can't do much practical work. The momentum is great.

If this kind of "talent" doesn't go into the entertainment industry, it would really be a waste of talent.

"At least, it's a serious matter, and we don't let them cheat and deceive. As long as they can get resources, whether it's people, money, channels or public opinion support, they can count on their capabilities."

After launching several projects in the second half of the year, Jin Shang felt more and more that the entertainment industry had shrunk too much. Not only was it hard to find projects and money, but professionals with certain talents were extremely scarce. It was too difficult to do anything.

"Of course, it would be great if they could work together to promote policy support and openness in this industry."

"I've been talking for a long time. Is this your fundamental purpose?"

After hearing this, Jin Shi smiled, drove into the community, and drove into the parking space in his yard.

The fancy excuses are all false. What really makes Jin Shang feel embarrassed is that this industry is too closed. Nowadays, even the qualifications for filming film and television dramas need to be affiliated with the corresponding department, and they can only do it by playing a few side projects.

Why does Jin Shang cooperate with the American Film Studio on animation projects and film TV series, and why does he have to get endorsement from the TV station?

Without backstage support, we can't even get a license, let alone be broadcast on a TV station.

Jinxi Video, which has been online for some time, is strictly speaking a blank space stipulated by the law. Because of its weak influence and very few clicks, it is at the level of a video parlor hidden in the community. It's okay now, but if you expand it later, or plan to buy copyrights for expansion, what will happen if you don't even have a formal "identity"?

Movies and TV dramas are not something you can release if you want.

Nowadays, every time Jinxi Culture launches a new product, it goes to the relevant departments to ask if it can be done and whether it is necessary to apply for any qualifications. This makes the superiors extremely embarrassed. No one knows how to approve it. They check the regulations. , the more I checked, the more confused I became. I didn’t know which one to apply, so I had to mess with it.

As time passed, Jin Shang felt a little unsure.

It's okay now, but in the future if we really have to stick to the rules, everything will be the same.

"Don't think about it. It's Chinese New Year and you're frowning for no one to see. I don't know how wronged you are because you went back to your hometown."

Jin Shi patted his son on the shoulder and said with a smile,

"I guess you've arrived at your aunt's house. Go back and say hello, and then go to your uncle's house for a visit."

"understood."

To calm down his emotions, Jin Shang also knew that he would probably spend the next two days visiting relatives who were relatively close to him, taking turns paying New Year greetings.
-

From the first to the third day of junior high school, the whole family basically spent time welcoming and sending them off. Although it was a bit cold, the weather was not bad and there was no wind, so it was quite comfortable.

It wasn't until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year that the intermittent social activities gradually became less frequent, and Jin Shang was finally able to have a little leisure time.

The company is scheduled to open on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and there are still more than two days of rest. Jin Shang also went shopping specifically to see what is worthy of attention in the new year and new atmosphere.

During this period, Jin Shang also made a guest appearance as "Mr. Jin, an enthusiastic citizen" and did a street interview. During this period, there were a lot of shooting tasks for the outdoor column, and it was not easy to find a few amateurs for interviews, so he had to try to contact people he knew well. Made a cameo appearance.

I went to see the newly opened "Xinghai Plaza" with my cousin Mei Fengchun who had also been a "shopping student Ms. Mei". There were quite a lot of people. The two went to the underground food court to eat something and then looked around. Stopped at a clothing store.

Uniqlo, located in a prime location on the first floor, is a place where many young men and women go to take a look. It has high-quality products at low prices and many styles. It can basically keep up with the fashion. Many cultural shirts that are not visible to the outside world are also on sale.

"My uncle's clothing business is getting bigger and bigger. When I was in school, I could often hear people hanging out together, and Uniqlo appeared quite frequently."

"Urban fast fashion, if done well, still has great potential, but compared with my second uncle, it is still far behind."

"It's just a loan. As long as you can borrow money, who can't buy it?"

Mei Fengchun commented nonchalantly.

That's right, this Xinghai Plaza was built into the current fashionable shopping mall after Mei Yingnian bought an old state-owned shopping mall that was not well managed. After half a year of upgrading and transformation, it was built.

As a sign of officially entering commercial real estate in Beijing, Mei Yingnian really spared no effort to promote it.

From Jin Shang's advanced perspective, the area of ​​this large shopping mall is still a bit small, but it is enough. At the beginning of 1996, it was still very impressive.

After wandering around for a while, the two of them felt a little hot, so they took a rest in a tea restaurant and talked about the interesting things that happened in the capital in the past two days.

"Did you see that the poem you posted on the forum was quoted in mainstream newspapers in the past two days?"

"Really? I've been too busy these past two days to watch the news."

"Is there any special reason for promoting that poem at this time of year?"

"The openness of the policy will continue to expand."

After thinking about it, Jin Shang also understood that the poem "Yuan Ri" contained a strong meaning of discarding the old and incorporating the new, and seeking change. It not only fits the meaning of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new in the New Year, but also means that everything is renewed and things change.

"International trade organizations will have an increasing influence on the domestic economy."

The impact of integrating a huge economy with a population of nearly one billion into the world economic system cannot be underestimated.

"Blowing the wind?"

"Everyone understands the trumpet of the times, and it doesn't matter if you don't understand it. As long as you don't go against the trend and follow the trend, you can basically get a lot of benefits."
