this man is not calm

Chapter 434 Be careful with your words and deeds
Some problems cannot be solved in a short time. The Internet and culture are the two pillars of Jinshang's business landscape and are industries with extremely high added value. Most of the other businesses serve them.

Without strong demand for electricity, there would be no thought of building power plants. Without water use restrictions, there would be no offshore chemical plants, nor would there be businesses such as wind power, photovoltaic power, bioenergy or plant factories, which are currently more hype than practical.

Among these, controlling the supply and channels is the key to Jinxi Mall's survival.

"I think the Li family may be a little stronger than my second uncle. In the past, they were even more powerful. As a local tyrant who has been rooted in the countryside for hundreds of years, they still have a very deep foundation. However, fortunes are often accompanied by disasters, and disasters are often accompanied by fortunes. A big family and a big business also mean that the interests are more deeply entangled. On the surface, they are big but not strong, and they are stumbling. It is very difficult to transform..."

"So, you suggest developing into the export-oriented oil processing sector?"

"The local liquor market is too limited. Without major improvements, it is difficult to make a breakthrough. The Li family has no motivation and ability to drive industrial upgrading. Under such circumstances, there is still hope for a turnaround if we stabilize the situation and keep the local agricultural and sideline products market, especially the supply chain channels. In addition, exploring the high value-added food processing industry is also a very important measure..."

It's not that Jin Shang is partial to one over the other, but the situations are different. There are only a few people in the second aunt's family, so they can ignore the others; Li Xuan's family did not become rich in recent years. There are many aunts and uncles, and I don't know how many of them are entrenched in the family business, and they rely on it to support the whole family.

It is not advisable to act rashly. Not to mention the future mother-in-law Cao Heng who actually carried out the execution, even the highly respected Li Leping's words may not be effective.

With so many people eating here, it’s no exaggeration to say that this is a serious matter.

"For the next step, I plan to absorb some of the Li family members, break them up, and arrange them to work in various industrial chains across the country to reduce the pressure of transformation. Then, we will concentrate resources and move towards comprehensive breeding. The basic staple food base must be maintained. Oil crops are the driving force. For slightly inferior fields and valleys and hills, rapeseed and oil tea will be the main crops. For saline-alkali land and barren mountains with even worse conditions, high-yield forage will be planted. First, let the elderly who stay in the village and are unwilling to work outside to raise cattle to improve conditions. In the end, we will definitely move towards large-scale farms and processing plants."

“Raising pigs and chickens in the building?”

"Almost! I am just providing an idea. How to do it specifically will definitely depend on how the Li family handles it. But the general direction is definitely right. It depends on the level of the executor and the prestige of Mr. Li to see if this matter can be pushed forward."

The breeding industry in the south is different from that in the north.

Not to mention anything else, the temperature in the south is high, and the perennial high-yield forage grass has a very high rate of overwintering and regreening, so there is no need to worry about grassland degradation. You can plant one crop and harvest it for several years. For example, specially cultivated high-yield giant fungus grass, king bamboo grass, wheat straw and other forage grasses can raise several cows on one acre of land.

Although the calves are raised by farmers, unlike those raised in factory cow sheds where they can be slaughtered in about a year, the fodder is almost free. If the calves are raised successfully, you can make a profit of 6,000 to 10,000 yuan for each calf, which is really good.

"Stabilize the basic situation in the townships, and then try to take the path of technological transformation and intensive breeding. In essence, it is similar to your second aunt's family, but... the conditions in the north are not so good. We must do it all at once and take the path of scale and economy. We have to take the final account..."

To put it simply, the Li family can make sufficiently considerable profits with a slightly extensive model, but Zhang Hua in the north cannot do that. A negligence in a management link or an unexpected cold wave may cause extremely heavy losses.

For various considerations, livestock must be fed mainly with feed, supplemented by silage, hay and self-produced fermented feed. To put it bluntly, livestock must be grown and marketed as quickly as possible at a lower cost to increase turnover rates. Otherwise, they will not be able to compete with their peers.

Judging from this perspective, agriculture and animal husbandry in the north have greater potential, but the threshold is higher and the risks are greater. In the south, human resources are cheap, and there is almost no cost forage everywhere in the mountains. There is no need to spend money to cultivate and plant it, nor to consider the risk of wintering.

Each has its own merits!
In general, Lao Li's family has more options, but it is different for my second aunt's family, as their basic base is a little worse.

Fortunately, my second aunt's family has its roots in the north, and the area they will focus on in the future is also in the north. They are actually not in direct competition with Li Xuan's family, who are in the same industry but focus on central China and expand their business to the south.

As the two major sources of support for Jin Shang's relatives, there is no need to worry about unfair treatment.

The country is so big and the market to be occupied is so huge, how is it possible that all the benefits should be divided among the two families?

Who knows how many relatives, near or far, will come to seek refuge with us in the future. It is impossible that each of them will occupy their own territory and fight against each other, right?
"Then... this will depend on your ability to balance the situation and your management skills. How to properly handle the relationship between the 'Yuan Cong Faction', 'Foreign Relatives', 'Military Merits' and 'Civil Officials', and make them a whole to face the outside world instead of wasting time internally, is not an easy task."

"What's so hard about this?"

Jin Shang smiled proudly.
"It may not be easy for others to do it, but I am a lucky person who is blessed by destiny and holds the 'golden broom'. Time and the trend are on my side."

"It's best if you have confidence, but I have one last word. You have to think carefully about the issue of the 'royal family'. Without the protection of the princes and the awe of the government, your position will be unstable. You are the founder, energetic and healthy, but what if something unexpected happens or you can't take care of it?"

To put it bluntly, Jin Shang can control the situation, but does his successor have that ability?
"Is it too early to consider the issue of my son taking over now?"

"Cao Mengde thought so too. As a result, his eldest son Cao Ang died. The tallest of the remaining sons was Cao Pi. His descendants were not ambitious and Sima Yi took advantage of them. If you don't think about the future, you will worry about the present. There are not many sons to inherit the family property, so there is no need to worry too much. However... there are many people who covet wealth that rivals that of a country. I am not afraid of being taken advantage of by outsiders, but I am worried that it will cause trouble..."

As the family's wealth increased, the Jin father and son became more and more cautious, if for no other reason than to ensure the personal safety of the whole family.

If one day some inexplicable woman comes with her child and says she wants to divide the family property, the money is secondary. The key is that your reputation will be ruined, which will easily attract more jackals that smell blood.

It’s not that Lao Jin has old-fashioned ideas, but that he has a profound understanding of human nature.

You are famous, rich, and surrounded by good people, but only God knows whether they are truly nice to you or just pretending.

"If it weren't for your ancestral ability to protect you, I'm afraid I wouldn't want you to run around. Some time ago, a little-known artist in Gyeonggi was kidnapped by his money-hungry friends, who demanded money from his family. Fortunately, he was alert and found a chance to escape, otherwise, his fate would be unpredictable."

"I'll pay attention."

"Money... is just material possessions. You should protect yourself at this critical moment. If you lose your career, it's gone. You can always start over. Your business is getting bigger and bigger, and the impact is becoming more and more obvious. As far as I know, some organizations have already investigated our family's situation."

As the country's best capital, there is actually a list of industry restrictions and encouragements. Some industries that consume a lot of water and electricity, have strong pollution, and occupy too many resources are not allowed to enter, while some are encouraged to engage in and have preferential policies.

A few sensitive industries have requirements for actual controllers and legal person qualifications. For example, if you are engaged in news publishing, advertising media, cultural fiction, film and television entertainment, energy and electricity, etc., if you are a foreigner, or have foreign ancestry and unclear connections, or the identities of your parents and elders are not harmonious, there may be obstacles.

If you have a clean family background, a firm stance, a well-documented growth process, and no mysteries that require special attention, then many vague obstacles will disappear.

It’s like a well-known water brand in the previous life. After the founder passed away, his children who had become foreign citizens inherited the family business. As a result, national pride turned into foreign-controlled capital, and many of the previous benefits and conveniences naturally no longer existed.

Someone investigated and found out that the importance of the Jin family father and son had reached a new level, and many of the low-level tricks used under the table could no longer deal with them.

However, good and bad are relative. Once there is any bad behavior, it will soon be placed on someone's desk for evaluation.

"I understand. Be careful with your words, right?"

Just as well-known public figures will be criticized for their careless words and deeds, every move of influential entrepreneurs will affect the hearts of thousands of people and even directly affect the livelihoods of many people.
-
Jin Shang had actually thought about Lao Jin's warning. Entrepreneurs are not considered public figures, but Jin Shang is different. He is young, rich, and has a lot of exposure.

Even though many people don't know that he is also a well-known poet, writer and singer, and even many of his fans don't know that there is a rising billionaire singing to them, this does not prevent many well-informed people from knowing about it.

In early November, a newly released personal album, "Tolerance," began to appear on the shelves of major stores, firing the first shot in the end-of-year melee in the pop music market.

The Xiao Ma Zha Band, Mei Shuying and Zhang Yu are not to be outdone and are trying to increase their popularity before Dai Yiqun's year-end album is released next month.

The peak season for pop song album sales is only a few months each year, mainly around the winter and summer vacations. Many confident singers will also choose to release albums during this period, which is the same as the fact that blockbuster movies are basically concentrated in the summer and New Year's Day seasons.

During the holidays, Jin Shang actually didn't care about these things. Every once in a while, he would take some time to go to the recording studio to play around, record a few songs, and put together an album, which he would then let Zhang Qian and Luo Yang release when the time was right.

On this rare Sunday, Jin Shang dragged the lazy Li Xuan to the northern grassland to ride horses and exercise, and then went to the nearby film and television city to see the crew who were intensively filming "Drunken Master 2". It was almost finished, and Dai Yiqun and some actors were just reshooting the scenes. The post-production was already being synchronized, and it is expected to meet everyone after the new year.

It feels quite fresh to watch the performance live.

Without disturbing the on-site work, it came to an end after an hour and a half. Dai Yiqun, who was sweating profusely and drinking beverages to replenish water and energy, wiped his face and came over to say hello.

"In this kind of weather, you can be so tired. It seems that filming is quite hard and it is a physically demanding job!"

Unlike later traffic artists who would promote their professionalism even if they made a living, professional actors these days still attach great importance to their skills to make a living. This is different from fake-faced traffic artists who are stars by profession and acting is a side job.

Although Dai Yiqun is a crossover star in the fields of film, television and music, her professional abilities are still acceptable.

"I earn so much money, so I have to do my job well. If I mess up this time, no one will hire me next time."

Old Dai said with a self-deprecating smile,

"Manager Nan has gone to urge the post-production special effects team. They've made many changes and added more investment. If they don't do a good job, I'm afraid he'll get angry again."

"Lack of ability or some other reason?"

"We have recruited two foreign experts who are quite capable, but they don't mesh well with the locals, so we need someone to keep an eye on them."

"I see. These are all minor matters. As long as the film is completed on time and passes the review and is released, that's all."

"By the way, Mr. Jin, I heard that the movie "Resident Evil" which has been stuck for more than a year has passed the review..."

"Huh? No one told me..."

"It happened in the past two days. It might have been the weekend. The news hasn't spread yet. I just heard about it from President Danan."

As a commercial film adapted from a video game, the novel and comics have been on the market for a long time, but the movie "Resident Evil" encountered big problems. After being revised two or three times, it was still stuck due to scale issues.

Although it is named as science fiction, everyone knows that this is a disaster action thriller. The zombie theme inevitably involves action special effects and a series of relatively realistic scene reproductions.

The comics and games are not very clear, so the impact is not that strong. Movies are on the big screen, plus the visual shock effect of the theater, the impact is too strong. For children under the age of thirteen, it is best to be accompanied by parents or elders to watch.

After repeated cuts and reshoots, the film has not been able to be released normally. It was even considered as the biggest failure of Changdi Culture due to the high costs of 3D filming and post-production special effects. But now it can pass the review?

Someone once suggested distributing the film overseas, or simply selling the copyright, but Jin Shang did not agree. This IP is still very valuable. If the blockbuster movie is missing, it always feels like something is missing.

"Boss Nan thought it was Boss Jin who did it, but it seems there is another reason?"

"Who cares? As long as it passes the review, it will be released in theaters as soon as possible to create a fait accompli so that others won't regret it."

As long as there is more than 100 million, or even more than 50 million, it won't be too much of a loss. The number of moviegoers will increase, which will drive the hot sales of novels, comics and games, and it will definitely make a lot of money.
