this man is not calm

Chapter 335 Trading
Very early on, Jin Shang understood that the "golden broom" he owned was not an immutable existence. It would change according to the actual situation and the status of the holder.

So far, the "Golden Finger" has been of great help, playing an extremely important role in supporting the career of the Jin family and his son, protecting Jin Shang from many difficulties in the initial stage of his business.

Even so, Jin Shang still didn't have many ideas on how to maximize its effect, and he couldn't find the right person to discuss it and help come up with ideas.

The passive effect is still not perfect after all. It would be great if it could play the role of Dinghai Shenzhen at all times.

"Maybe it's because my parents got back together and got a younger brother, two servants and two dogs!" 』

Jin Shang couldn't figure it out, so he could only put it down for the time being.

During this time, Lao Jin and Mei Xinghong were really tired from taking care of Xiao Jinfeng. Even with the help of Que Sheng and Guifeng, they still felt a little overwhelmed.

Even though they have a child who is close to twenty years old, by the standards of their parents, the two of them are really novices with little experience. The initial enthusiasm has faded a lot, and there are no more people. Therefore, it is certain that you can sleep well, get more rest, recharge your batteries, and be prepared for little Jinfeng's crying at any time.

After several days of business trip, Li Xuan was also very tired and prepared to go to bed early, while Jin Shang stayed in the living room for the first time in a long time, watching TV with two sleepy shepherd dogs.

On the screen, the new and popular "The Strange Case of the Song Dynasty" has been broadcast for several days. The gimmick of the costume detective suspense drama has really attracted the attention of many viewers. The ratings have been rising all the way, even though it is bigger than the phenomenal annual show. The drama is close, and the popularity is also very satisfying.

His face was a little pale, probably because he hadn't seen the sun for a while. It seemed like he was really sick, and it wasn't like he was pretending to be sick because he was too lazy to meet the idiots at home.

In order to make this somewhat controversial series appear on the prime time channel, Jin Shangke made a lot of promises. Of course, Zhu Jingxiao's kind words are also indispensable.

In addition, other businesses have also gained more or less, so Jin Shang is quite satisfied with the results of this year.

The cultural and creative industry is like this. It will die of drought and die of floods. If it really becomes popular, making money will be like picking up money.

The good things brought from several counties and cities in northern Hubei are basically food. Lao Huang lacks everything. Whether it is expensive or not is not a consideration. The key is the heart.

In this world, "Zhiyin Zatan" is running smoothly. From the end of last year to November this year, how much money did this weekly magazine alone make?
The gross profit totaled approximately 77 million, which in 1996 was simply appalling.

Of course, "Zhiyin Zatan" is now the company's highest profit margin business, only slightly lower than Jin Shang's almost "costless" record release. Although its potential is not particularly high and it cannot provide massive cash flow like e-commerce, at this stage, it is still one of the mainstays of the company.

Moreover, the concentration of top players in this field is particularly high. The subscription volume of "Zhiyin Zatan" is booming, and behind it, we don't know how many well-known and unknown competing magazines have disappeared.

The "alternative historical universe" is a good start, and a series of subsequent connecting works have been promoted, and they can all be followed up.

In the afternoon of the next day, Jin Shang came to the mansion where he had been before and brought some specialties to visit the patient.

In the previous life, the ceiling of subscriptions for popular books was "Reader", "Youth Digest", "Yilin", etc. in the late 1990s. The "Ban Yue Tan" that was known as "the first domestic magazine" was probably the one that had its own unique features. features.

The year 1996, which is about to come to an end, is undoubtedly the beginning of the explosion of Jin Shang's career, especially in the field of cultural and creative industries. Not only has he produced a large number of film and television dramas that the common people are talking about, but his pop music is no longer a celebrity. A little transparent that is not popular, the subscription volume of novels and comics magazines has rebounded. It has become a domestic phenomenon-level urban beauty publication, "Zhiyin Zatan", and is quite likely to become the number one weekly in the country. The subscription volume has stunned many old publications.

"It is said to be a local specialty of my hometown. It has been more than six hundred years since my ancestors settled in the north, and I have long forgotten the local accent. The last time I went back to visit relatives and worship my ancestors was... ten years ago, or eleven years ago. I am older. Yeah, my memory isn’t very good either.”

"It's a rare trip, and this is all I can get."

The rise of the women's magazine "Zhiyin" really caught people off guard. It was even expected to become the "number one magazine" in the country.

"Crabs from Liangzi Lake, rice wine and sesame candy from Xiaogan, lotus roots from Lianhua Lake, Huangpi water chestnuts, and Hanlin chicken..."

This is the result obtained by Jinshang without fully pursuing profits. If we really focus on reducing costs, increasing unit prices, freeing up more advertising space, and selling more, profits can rise significantly.

"It's warm in the south, so it's good to go for a walk in winter."

At this point, Jin Shang was almost relieved.

The plot on TV is almost reaching the most classic part of "a raccoon cat for a prince", which is bound to increase the ratings by a large margin again. The people love to see it, which is the magic weapon to refute all criticisms.

"In this season, it is not easy to put these together. You are determined."

It is better to choose a day than to hit it. After a few days, Jin Shang may have forgotten this matter.

"Forget it."

Huang Zhengkuo waved his hands boredly and said,

"I used to see a few familiar relatives, but now I don't recognize any of them. They are all strangers. It's pointless to go back."

One of the bad things about living for too long is watching old friends die one after another and being more and more lonely. It's really uncomfortable.

The world is becoming more and more unfamiliar, and it is almost inevitable for long-lived people to feel this.

"These unscrupulous descendants in the capital are not fuel-efficient lamps. You go out and hide, out of sight and out of mind."

"Are you scolding yourself?"

"Old man, your surname is Huang and my surname is Jin. We are not the same family."

"No, that's right! Your grandmother... Guizhen is still blaming me for being partial back then and not having any contact with her for forty years. She is really a stubborn guy. I was wrong back then."

Jin Shang was too lazy to care about the trivial matters in the past. He laughed awkwardly and said perfunctorily:

"You are already a long time ago, but you still like to reminisce about the past."

"It's just because I'm old that I like to remember the past!" "You'd better worry more about those uncles and uncles who caused trouble. I've heard about it in the south. When you partnered with others to engage in foreign exchange swap business, you were shot. It’s really humiliating to become a scapegoat and then be blocked.”

The dignified frontman of "Jiang Xia Huang" was fooled by scammers, sold out, and paid for people. It was really embarrassing.
"Don't mess around if you don't have the skills. Is that kind of money they can make? Old man, it's embarrassing to wipe someone else's butt, isn't it?"

Why is Jin Shang unwilling to play with those relatives of Lao Huang's family?
It's easy to be too ambitious and have too little skill. The key is that he likes to mess around, and he thinks he's great, thinking that no one dares to provoke him.

After hearing Jin Shang's words, Huang Zhengkuo sighed with despair:

"So, I thought it was time to let go and plan for the future."

"How can I say that 'Jiang Xia Huang' is one of the top three popular surnames in the country, and there are not even one or two people in the branch who can stand it?"

"Top three? I'm afraid you are overestimating..."

It seems that he and Jin Shang can still chat, but Huang Zhengkuo, who is not particularly energetic, comes to chat.

"Our family became prosperous too late. It is said that after Zhuanxu, the Miao descendants of the ancient Huang Kingdom really became prosperous when Lord Chun Shen was highly used in the Chu State. However, the Chu State failed too quickly, and the people did not enjoy much at all. After a long period of dividends, he became a slave to the country again. During the Han Dynasty, he cultivated Jiangxia deeply. For a long time, his reputation was too real. It took four hundred years to accumulate. After some improvement, Liu Han died again. What was even more embarrassing was his poor decision-making. He was crushed into pieces in the game between Cao Sun and Liu."

After a pause, Huang Zhengkuo continued:
"During the period of the Second Emperor Huanling, the Huang family was actually already very strong. It was not as strong as the fourth and third sons of the Yuan family, who were also the leaders of the Central Plains family. Huang Wan's great-grandfather Huang Xiang was a minister, and his grandfather Huang Qiong was a Taiwei. If not Even if Huang Wan loses his father as a young boy, he will not miss the golden period of accumulating strength. "

Before the "Disaster of Party Imprisonment", Huang Wan had served as Jiuqing, and later became the shepherd of Yuzhou, and was granted the title of high official in the border areas. When the Eighteenth Route Princes attacked Dong, he was taken hostage to Chang'an and became the Sili Xiaowei.

In the novel, it is said that Wang Yun offered a series of tricks to alienate Lu Bu and killed Dong Zhuo. This is not true. According to family records and historical records, Huang Wan, who was the captain of Sili School, was the key to controlling the situation. Huang Wan was responsible for the specific ambush and assassination. Wang Yun is the leader of the conspiracy, and Lu Bu is the killer.

It's a pity that Wang Situ couldn't succeed, Li Jue and Guo Si counterattacked Chang'an, Wang Yun committed suicide, Lu Bu led his people to flee, Huang Wan and other anti-Dong pioneers were naturally killed, and the last chance to revive the Han Dynasty was missed. .

The only difference between the ancestors Huang Wan and Yuan Shao, the fourth generation and the third prince, was that they did not have a healthy father, and they also had a "pig teammate" who cheated others without paying for their lives.

"From the Wei, Jin, Sui and Tang dynasties, until the Song Dynasty, there was actually nothing to do with our 'Jiangxia Huang'. In the chaos of the late Han Dynasty, the losses were too great. I could only watch the Central Plains and Hebei families show off their power, and the 'Five Surnames and Seven Hopes' slaughtered the world. It was not until more than 600 years ago that they took advantage of the opportunity to rise. For more than a thousand years, the strategy of "Jiangxia Huang" was to go south, so in southern Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi, Central South and Nanyang, Huang's Tangkou. It’s very popular. It’s among the top three surnames in many regions, but nationwide, it’s only in the top ten. I guess it’s eighth.”

"It's only been six hundred years since we developed northward? No wonder... the situation in which the south is more important than the north has never been changed."

Huang Zhengkuo said worriedly,

"While I was here, we could still maintain superficial harmony. If I were gone, the disintegration would be inevitable. Those branches in the south would have gone their own way long ago. I also know that the general trend is inevitable and cannot be resisted by human forces. However, regardless of the useless people around me, Can not be done."

If they really want to eat, drink and have fun, it doesn't matter if they lose a few dollars. I'm afraid that some of them will start a business and do big things and prove their non-existent abilities.

At this thought, Huang Zhengkuo couldn't help but sneered:
"Last month, a few idiots, who were deceived by someone, formed a group to convince me to support them in building real estate, building villas and mansions, and making a lot of money."

"This is good business."

"I know that just because the business is good, it doesn't mean they can do it. Is this something they can do casually? The second son of your uncle's family has been through thick and thin. He has gained wealth in twenty years and wants to break into the capital. The real estate business is so difficult, why should they just rely on me, an old guy who never knows when he will kick his legs? If I die, they have nothing in their hands, but they can still be safe. What if I hold the coveted treasure? Assets, shouldn’t they be torn into pieces by those tigers, leopards and wolves?”

"That's why you want me to be a shield for them?"

"I've given you so much, it's not a loss!"

Facing Huang Zhengkuo's staring eyes, Jin Shang responded without flinching:
"I will make a lot of money in the future, and you will definitely not lose money now."

Valuation is valuation, it only counts if it can be sold.

So much land, shops, properties, collections of art, etc. have been sold off in large quantities in a short period of time and cannot be sold at a high price. It is not an easy task to cash out all of them at the current price.

"In short, my mind will not change. What I value is you as a person, not a company or platform. You personally accept the debt, inject capital into the family trust fund within the specified period of time as required by the agreement, and be optimistic about those Manager, just don’t let them mess around.”

The family trust was naturally prepared for the "filial sons and grandsons" of the old Huang family. This thing was said to be able to pass on the family business to future generations, allowing them to have food and clothing without worries, but there was also a prerequisite for that, that is, the family could maintain long-term prosperity.

Don't think that those trust fund managers are just good men and women. The money is given to others, and it is still unknown whether they can get it back.

There are not just one or two "second-generation" heirs who have been involved in lawsuits with trust funds in their previous lives, and those who have been "penetrated" by debt disputes are not alone.

To put it bluntly, whether this kind of family trust is reliable or not depends on whether there are people in the future generations who can stand up to each other. If they are all a bunch of losers, it is a sure thing that they will be fooled by others.

In the final analysis, external force is a tool, and whether you can succeed or not depends on yourself.

"I am willing to be this 'fuse'. The assets you gave me are also very tempting. Although it will temporarily bring a lot of personal financial pressure to me, but...it doesn't matter, it's not a big problem."

"I know that although your business is getting bigger and bigger, you are not trying your best to make money. Instead, you are looking at the long term and planning for the future, right?"

"Making money... is not difficult. Making big money requires a little thought and effort. The question is, is it worth it? If I work harder now, it will be easier in the future. It's not impossible. However, I can't just let you calculate... …”

As he spoke, Jin Shang tilted his head and thought for a while before continuing to ask,
"I want to know more about the use of our family's... so-called 'power of destiny'."

"It seems that you have reached this point..."

Huang Zhengkuo seemed to have expected it and gave a affirmative answer simply.
