this man is not calm

Chapter 440 Gradually
It would be great if this business that makes money without any effort could be maintained for a long time. Unfortunately, a business that is easy, makes a lot of money, and has a relatively low threshold often requires extraordinary strength to get involved in.

With the expansion of the Xiaolingtong business to such an extent, even those who are not optimistic about this "backward technology" will have to re-evaluate its value.

Regardless of whether its lifespan is three, five or ten years, during its existence, it can provide huge profits to Jinxi Culture every year, including fixed packages, phone bills, text message fees and additional value-added services for Jinxi chat. In addition, the real-name authentication derived from the Xiaolingtong number, cross-platform account linkage and direct remote recharge are all irreplaceable huge gains.

At a time when the Internet is still immature, it is not an easy task to implement virtual transactions on the Internet without face-to-face meetings. Through the connection of Xiaolingtong, various IT businesses that were originally not closely connected have begun to form an organic whole. Originally, this should have been the task of social programs with strong demand, such as Jinxi Chat or blogs, but unfortunately at this stage they are too weak and cannot play the role of taking charge of the overall situation.

"Anyway, we still have to keep working hard. Jinxi Chat only has 1.1 million active users, while Fetion has close to 2 million."

There is no doubt that Jinxi Culture has done a good enough job in technology development, product design and promotion and marketing. Unfortunately, the wind has not come yet, and the "pig on the wind" cannot fly.

Especially with such a big rock like Fetion pressing on it.

Fortunately, according to reliable sources, the basic operators have essentially completed the separation, with mobile communications and network telecommunications operating separately. It is unclear when the official announcement will be made, but it will be either the second half of this year or the first half of next year, and it won't be delayed too long.

This change brings endless variables to long-term development, but it seems to be a positive trend at the moment.

"Next, it depends on whether the Bai Ze 98 operating system can become a hit. At present, it may not win the hearts of many picky users. It is still unknown."

With such emotion, Yang Qi put aside the things at hand and couldn't help but worry about the plans for the new year.

Winter vacation is now here, and it is the most critical moment for the year-end promotion. Whether we can capture the hearts of young people, promote the concept of entertainment and audio-visual laptops, and turn computers, which were originally regarded as high-end production tools, into indispensable household appliances in daily life, is the key to promoting brand machines and system applications.

Only when these two killer features are achieved can other related applications and surrounding industries keep up.

"I looked at the data, and the current growth rate is still quite good."

Jin Shang, who was quite confident, said calmly,
"As for the technical issues, let Director Yang take care of them. By the way...how is the development of Brother Sun's e-commerce platform going? It is oriented towards C2C and cross-border B2B business, avoiding the edge of our company. Who knows, it will really help him carve out a new path."

"It is expected to be delivered at the end of April or the beginning of May. The company has received a lot of outsourcing development orders, especially those related to e-commerce. This thing is not difficult, but the various customization requirements are a bit troublesome..."

"Technical?"

Thinking of the past six months, Yang Qi responded with a smile,
"In the IT and Internet field, there are not many real experts, especially those big and small clients who come from other fields and want to speculate. They have no idea about the current development of technology and what functions can be achieved. The requirements they put forward are simply incomprehensible. It's okay for them to be laymen. We can work harder and explain more. What's even more ridiculous is that there is no definite information. Changing orders every day is the least of the problems. There are many cases where they are changed over and over again and finally overturned..."

"Well, maybe the customer doesn't know what he wants."

"Yes, the specific requirements are quite vague. You have no idea what they are going to do. You can only modify it again and again according to the requirements."

"It's business, that's it."

Money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat.

Especially in the emerging IT Internet industry, although there is fertile soil everywhere, you never know when some strange things will grow in the ground.

It is understandable that things were not going smoothly during the early stages of development.
-
While technicians led by Jin Shang and Yang Qi were supervising the debugging process in the data center, a few hundred meters away in the photovoltaic power station complex, Jin Shi and Mei Xinghong brought their young son Jin Feng to go for an outing. The servant Gui Feng was busy running around and helping to take pictures with a camera. Que Sheng's job was to be the driver, and he also had to take care of pet dogs of all sizes.

After several days of rain and cloudy weather, a rare sunny day arrived. The warm winter sun shone on the earth, and the temperature, which had been hovering around zero degrees, rose to ten degrees.

On the windless green grass, the children who can walk and crawl are particularly happy. They have been stuck at home for a few days and couldn’t go out to play. This time they came to such a far place, saw new things, and felt that everything was very interesting.

A few sheepdogs had just arrived and seemed to have awakened their instincts, and began to unconsciously drive the livestock for fun.

At present, there are quite a few animals in the grassland complex area, including cattle, sheep, deer, etc. There are also several alpacas with particularly strange looks, which are very funny.

These animals are currently cubs, and were bought and sent here as soon as they were able to live independently.

Little Jinfeng looks here, chases there, and wants to try everything. Currently, only the calf can satisfy the little guy's desire to ride.

Jin Shi held the calf's head and stroked it gently, asking it to calm down and not panic. Mei Xinghong supported Xiao Jinfeng's limp body and sat astride the calf's back. She let Guifeng take several photos before she reluctantly got off the calf. She wanted to hug the alpaca's long neck, but the alpaca cleverly dodged her and ran away.

"Xiaofeng likes it here very much. It seems that boys should go out more often to see the world."

Mei Xinghong said comfortably,

"He will be two in a few months. I can't be overprotective like before."

That being said, it is actually overdosing.

At present, everything is normal with Xiao Jinfeng. He can almost stand steadily, walk a few steps with difficulty, and play with cats and dogs. He basically understands everything and can use expressions and gestures to indicate eating and drinking, but he doesn't like to talk.

For a while, his parents wondered if he had a language barrier. Children of this age could vaguely call out "Dad" and "Mom", but Xiao Jinfeng had difficulty speaking.

Later, we went to the hospital and related institutions for examination and identification, which proved that Xiao Jinfeng was normal and did not speak because he was too lazy to communicate.

This is really a mess for the whole family. The eldest brother Jin Shang has moved out and is not at home most of the time. The father Jin Shi is also very busy and it is difficult for him to accompany him for a long time. The grandmother is not a homebody and does not have the patience to play with her grandson. Que Sheng and Gui Feng often help take care of the children, but they are not good at teaching many basic knowledge in detail.

Generally speaking, it is the mother who is the closest to the child and is responsible for his enlightenment, but Mei Xinghong is a relatively cold person and is not particularly good at amusing children. In addition, she often deals with studio matters, which means that Xiao Jinfeng actually has very little family communication.

In comparison, he probably spends more time playing with his pet dogs than with his family.

It's not that they were careless, but the "lesson learned" from Jin Shang was too deeply rooted in people's minds, and he grew up smoothly without much trouble. However, the youngest son did not seem to be particularly precocious, and was not so worry-free. For example, he would accidentally steal dog food, run to the bathroom to play with water, open the drawers of the cabinet to make a step ladder, climb up and scratch things, and break decorations.

He is smart and curious, and likes to try new things, but is not keen on "inefficient" communication methods such as talking. When he wants water, he points to the cup. When he is hungry, he takes out the bottle and asks his family to make milk powder for him. He just points at what he wants and the adults will know.

In view of this, Jin Shi and Mei Xinghong also tried to spend as much time as possible with Xiao Jinfeng, and attempted to communicate with him through words, so as to guide his language ability to develop as quickly as possible.

Today is a rare opportunity. The first batch of small animals have been introduced into the "Smart City" park. The indoor greenhouse has been built, and even in winter, the weak livestock cubs will not freeze to death.

"Didn't it snow last week? There was still ice on the road this morning. Why do the grasslands here seem to be lush and green? I see that they are all withered and yellow everywhere else."

Mei Xinghong stepped on the green grass curiously and placed Xiao Jinfeng on Jin Shi's shoulder so that it could see farther from its height. Jin Shi replied without turning his head:
"Cold-resistant grass seeds. They won't freeze to death even at minus 30 degrees Celsius. They can grow normally above 7 degrees Celsius. Moreover, this stuff is directly laid here after being raised in the greenhouse."

If we really have to start sowing, raising seedlings, and growing from scratch, how long will it take?
"Besides, they have already grown here. As long as there is no overgrazing, they will continue to grow. Also, do you see the saplings over there that look like bamboo and willow? The newly cultivated bamboo willow with relatively stable characteristics is a very high-quality fast-growing willow. It used to grow very well in the south and the northwest plateau. There are not many of them in North China, but... it is not impossible to grow them. It is a very good economic forest tree species with many uses."

"Last time I heard, it was still a wasteland, how come it's been planted so quickly? The windbreaks outside the river embankment, the roadside trees on both sides of the road, the landscape trees and the banks of the greenway are all developed forest land, and they are planted so densely."

"That's nothing. You haven't been to the nursery to see that in an area the size of one acre, there are more than 5,000 seedlings being cultivated. Moreover, this thing is planted by cuttings, and the survival rate is ridiculously high. As long as the conditions are right, a large area can be built in a short time."

"But... I heard that the fast-growing eucalyptus trees in the south, also known as the Tyrant Tree, absorb water and fertilizer, and no grass grows wherever they pass."

"This... is not that exaggerated. Besides, the material of bamboo willow is very good, better than most fast-growing trees. Planting this thing may really make money..."

The geographical location of this place under your feet is not particularly advantageous, but it is not too bad either. If you want to increase its utilization rate if you don’t develop it into commercial housing or office buildings, you must think long-term.

Fast-growing willow is not only an economic tree species, but also a very good "energy tree". We can take it one step at a time and see how to utilize it. With the resources of this area alone, we can build a comprehensive utilization plant based on a paper mill and an urban waste recycling center.

Moreover, this is the capital. Although it is neither the central urban area nor the remote urban area, it is the suburbs. Currently, it is the fringe of urban and rural areas. It is hard to say what it will be like in ten years. It may become a precious land where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

The area enclosed by the wall is so large that you can't see the end of it at a glance. The edge extends to the Liangshui River. Two small tourist piers have been built, which can accommodate yachts and tour boats and are also used for loading and unloading cargo.

You have food in your hands, don't panic.

Even if it is not developed now, it does not mean that it has no value. Isn't it being produced now?
Two months later, the wind turbine was debugged and connected to the grid, so the place became stable. As for a series of comprehensive utilization models such as fast-growing bamboo and willow, bioenergy, paper mill, photovoltaic sheep, etc., they are all endorsements for Jinshang to secure this piece of land.

There are so many tricks these days. Developing a film and television city is to get land and sell houses, investing in tourism is to get land and sell houses, and building a factory is also to get land and sell houses.

Anyway, that's it.

While others are trying to find gimmicks to engage in real estate, Jin Shang is truly fulfilling his promise to engage in industry, which is very rare.

Good or bad is all about comparison. The country is so big and there is plenty of land, so where can't real estate be developed?

But there are too few people who really work down to earth.

"When I think about how Lao Huang sold the used car market and the farmers' market, plus a bunch of scattered and unusable plots of land, for more than 60 billion, I can't wait to go over and ask him if this is too shady."

Mei Xinghong chuckled and shook her head. She took out a tissue and wiped the snot and dirt off Xiao Jinfeng's face before responding:
"Scarcity makes things valuable. In a place like the capital, it's not about how much it sells for, but whether there is anyone to sell it to."

Scattered plots of land are valuable, but not particularly valuable. However, a large piece of land that is connected and easy to develop, especially in the capital, will be quite popular.

Not to mention 60 billion, even if it is priced at 70 billion and sold publicly, there might be an unknown super tycoon willing to make a move to buy it.

If you don't buy it, there are plenty of people who will. If you miss this opportunity, you'll never see it again.

"I know, but I'm just upset. The old guy is not doing things right. He does good things when he should, but he also keeps some tricks up his sleeve when he helps. Do you really think that we can't do it without him?"

"Okay, okay, I can afford it anyway. It's like this now, isn't it safe?"

"Let's not talk about this today. Anyway, this piece of land belongs to the Jin family now. If you want to take control of it in the future, you have to think carefully."

Strictly speaking, this is not Jin Shang's private property, but belongs to Jin Xi Yunfu. He has to complete a series of gambling conditions in the next few years to obtain full rights. But after all, it is meat at hand, and it is only a matter of time before he eats it.

These are not the garment factories and textile factories near the Fifth Ring Road, but the area between the Third and Fourth Ring Roads, not too far from the central urban area. It used to be a notoriously bad place, but after development, it has become very valuable.
