Resource Tycoon Reborn

Fang Mingyuan almost laughed. These words were in line with Shi Zhihui's temper. Behind Jijing Cultural Exchange Co., Ltd. is the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company. He himself has done quite well in movies and TV series in the mainland over the years, and he is already one of the domestic

The top film and television production company no longer needs to ask TV stations across the country to sell its works. Instead, as soon as the production is officially launched, TV stations across the country want to buy the broadcast rights as soon as possible, so this is a big deal.

Not ordinary hard.

Moreover, Shi Zhihui’s own family background is also very good. His grandfather’s generation was the deputy minister of the Ministry of Railways. Although there are currently no ministerial-level cadres in his father’s generation, there is still hope. Marrying a daughter-in-law comes from a good family background, and both parties can be said to be well-matched. In addition,

There are also many people in the circle of the courtyard who have regular contacts, so when facing officials, he will not be as groveling as those small bosses. Xie Guohai and he are also friends, although the relationship between the two parties is not close.

, but it’s okay to meet and have dinner when you have time, or to call and greet during the holidays. So when facing Xie Guohai, he didn’t have stage fright at all.

More importantly, what Shi Zhihui said is the truth. If Liao Provincial Film Studio cooperates with Jijing Cultural Exchange Co., Ltd., then Liao Provincial Film Studio does have what Jijing Cultural Exchange Co., Ltd. needs. The whole country wants to

There are so many companies that want to cooperate with Jijing Cultural Exchange Co., Ltd. Who doesn’t know that Jijing Cultural Exchange Co., Ltd. can produce movies with box office and TV series with ratings, although it is impossible to be as evil as Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company?

, but so far there is no precedent for the failure of large-scale project investment. Jijing Cultural Exchange Co., Ltd. is not short of filming funds, and Liao Provincial Film Studio invested in it, which turned into pure profit. No wonder he refused directly.

"I also know that he is telling the truth. It is precisely because it is the truth that he holds me back." Xie Guohai shook his head and said helplessly, "It is really unreasonable to not work and get money for free." Fang Mingyuan shrugged slightly,

Of course he would not say shamelessly that in fact many public institutions do not work and only receive money. The state uses taxpayers' money to support them. This is a mistake in the first place. It is just that other people do not have the confidence to expose this.

"Then what does Brother Xie mean? You want me to talk to Lao Shi and promote cooperation between the two companies?" Fang Mingyuan asked.

"It would be meaningless to do that. Even if Shi Zhihui doesn't say anything on the surface, he will be unhappy in his heart. If he is unhappy, he will definitely do something wrong and make us feel uncomfortable but can't say anything about him." Xie Guohai said.

He waved his hands and said, "We also understand that forceful melons are not sweet. Even with your nod, we can cooperate once or twice, and we can rely on this cooperation for a lifetime. You gave me face when I was in Liao Province. What if I am not in Liao Province?"

If you give me this face, what will you do if other people also beg you? I heard that Secretary Su once hoped that Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company could acquire Haojing Film Studio, but you

Rejected?"

"Although the mainland's film market has improved significantly in recent years, it still has too many rules and regulations, and many good themes cannot be chosen. Therefore, Hong Kong Kumho Film Group does not plan to enter the domestic entertainment market in a big way in the near future.

, this aspect is mainly left to Jijing Cultural Exchange Co., Ltd., and Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Corporation provides it with all aspects of support. Lao Shi believes that Haojing Film Studio acquired Jijing Cultural Exchange Co., Ltd.

Development has no obvious promotion effect, and Uncle Su’s attitude at the time was not insistent, so it was left to nothing." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.

"The Qinxi Provincial Government is confident and has sufficient financial funds!" Xie Guohai lamented. Back then, the three northeastern provinces were far behind Qinxi Province in the national economic map. Qinxi Province was recognized as the most powerful province at that time.

The economically backward provinces in Qinxi Province are better than those border provinces in the northwest and southwest. But now, only more than ten years have passed, and the total GDP of Qinxi Province has surpassed Liao Province and the three northeastern provinces.

Any one of them! If it weren’t for the fact that it is located inland, the transportation is not as convenient as the coastal provinces, and the foundation is weak, Qinxi Province’s national GDP ranking would be even higher!

"Actually, I think that in order to develop the cultural industry, the most important thing is to let go of the constraints that have been imposed on the cultural industry for many years! The amount of funds is actually secondary!" Fang Mingyuan said sternly, "If we talk about these people working in the cultural industry,

What I worry about every day is not whether I can produce good works, but whether my works do not meet the standards on the left or the right. Even if they are published or filmed, they may have to be drastically revised due to a sudden order.

, or even change the soul of the work, then it is impossible to produce a good work that can truly touch the soul. Brother Jie, don’t you think that the range of themes available for domestic movies and TV series is getting narrower and narrower, and more and more

Are the works limited to the two major themes of historical dramas and anti-Japanese dramas?"

Xie Guohai was startled for a moment. He usually had no time to watch movies and TV series, but since Fang Mingyuan said this, it was definitely not without purpose.

"Half a century after the founding of the People's Republic of China, we have also achieved world-renowned literacy achievements. Could it be said that the vast majority of people are still unable to distinguish between right and wrong, and what is realism and what is fantasy?" said Fang Mingyuan.

, "More and more restrictions will only make the path of the cultural industry narrower and narrower, making it less and less popular among domestic people. Now is the Internet age. People don't like domestic movies and TV series, so they will naturally turn their attention overseas.

Movies and TV series are unstoppable."

Xie Guohai frowned and said nothing. He was wondering what Fang Mingyuan meant when he suddenly mentioned this?

"Okay, you don't have to worry about it anymore. I just want you and Secretary Zuo to promise that as long as you are still in Liao Province, you will try your best to turn a blind eye to cultural works that do not involve fundamental issues. What appears on the market

Is this normal for controversial works, and the truth is not clear? Audiences have their own minds and can decide for themselves what is right, without anyone telling them dogmatically what is right. Moreover, if the entire cultural market

There is only one voice and one type of work, what will you think of?" Fang Mingyuan said solemnly. Jie Guohai couldn't help but shudder. At that time, even people like them who grew up in the compound would have nightmares when they think about it.

of.

On July 27, it was drizzling in both Fengyuan and Tongyi. In the back garden of the Fang family's mansion in the ancient city of Pingchuan, Zhao Xu'an and Fang Mingyuan sat across from each other and talked.

"How is the old man's health now?" Zhao Xuan asked. On July 24, Mr. Fang was admitted to the hospital due to illness, and Fang Mingyuan immediately rushed back from the northeast.

"Fortunately, it's not a big deal. The main reason is that grandpa's cough was a bit severe. The family was worried that it would cause other problems, so they sent him to the hospital. The doctor said it was nothing serious. Since they went to the hospital, my dad and the others just wanted to do a full body check.

He will be recuperated and will be discharged from the hospital in two days." Fang Mingyuan said, "Uncle Zhao, don't worry."

"That's good, that's good!" Zhao Xu'an took a long breath and said. Although he already knew the result from other channels, he was completely relieved after hearing Fang Mingyuan say this. Now, although Mr. Fang

He has long since stopped caring about worldly affairs and can be said to have settled down for the rest of his life, but in the Fang family he is like a needle that fixes the sea. Although Fang Mingyuan's position in the Fang family has long been stable and unshakable, the Fang family has not been able to shake it in these years.

There is some news of internal disagreement, but having the old man and his wife here is undoubtedly more reassuring.

"I plan to arrange for grandpa to go to the south or Brazil to recuperate for a while. The doctor said that his cough will be cured faster in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters and a pleasant climate." Fang Mingyuan said that the rapid economic development of Qinxi Province has also

This has caused the environmental pollution in Qinxi Province to become increasingly serious. The companies under the Fang family can meet the standards in this regard, and the Fang family can guarantee that the companies in Tongyi can basically meet the standards, but both water pollution and air pollution can flow!

"Well, do you need someone to accompany you?" Zhao Xu'an nodded.

"There is a brother-in-law over there in Brazil. If it's in the south, Hong Kong will definitely be fine. In other places, let's decide who will accompany him at home." Fang Mingyuan said.

Zhao Xu'an came here this time, firstly to ask about Mr. Fang's situation, and secondly because he had important matters to discuss with Fang Mingyuan.

"The drought from last year to this year has had a serious impact on the province's agricultural production. The output of winter wheat is almost 15% less than last year. Secretary Su and Governor Li proposed at a meeting a week ago

This year we will increase investment in agricultural infrastructure construction, and Tongyi is no exception. I have discussed with Mayor Yuan that since the province requires it, of course we must cooperate. And Mr. Fang, haven’t you always advocated the implementation of energy conservation?

Water-based agriculture, this time, has begun to be promoted on a large scale within the jurisdiction." Zhao Xu'an said. Although this drought did not have a great impact on Tongyi, it also caused a certain degree of reduction in grain production. And this

This incident also made Zhao Xu'an and the others a little wary. Qinxi Province was originally an area prone to drought and low rainfall. Nowadays, with economic development, the demand for industrial water and urban residents' water continues to rise, and water shortages are an indisputable fact. Therefore,

How to reduce agricultural water use, make better use of existing water resources, and avoid the negative impact of drought on Tongyi's economic development has become a key issue discussed in the city recently.

However, if you want to promote water-saving agriculture on a large scale within Tongyi, a lot of initial investment will be required, especially at the beginning. In order to dispel the concerns of farmers, the city needs to fund a group of people to serve as demonstration households. Moreover, Tongyi

Most of the water conservancy facilities and irrigation facilities built in Yizhong were twenty or thirty years ago, or even earlier. After so many years, due to insufficient national financial investment, they have generally become old and disrepaired, with damaged main and branch channels and siltation.

Damage to field projects is very common, which not only causes serious water losses, but also makes the actual irrigation area much lower than the designed irrigation area. This is also a common problem in grain-producing areas in Qinxi Province and even across the country.

Zhao Xuan produced a statistical data issued by the relevant departments of Qinxi Province, which showed that due to the general aging and disrepair of farmland irrigation facilities in the province, the intactness rate of engineering facilities in large irrigation areas is less than 50%, and the integrity rate of engineering facilities in small and medium-sized irrigation areas is less than 50%.

The integrity rate of engineering facilities is less than 40%, which means that when drought strikes, many places are helpless in the face of drought and water conservancy facilities are overwhelmed.

"Over the years, the province's grain output has been able to basically maintain an upward trend. To put it bluntly, it relies on groundwater. A large number of new wells are put into use every year, but groundwater resources are also limited, so the province's agriculture is basically

We still have to watch the weather!" Zhao Xu'an sighed lightly.

Fang Mingyuan nodded silently. This drought was not only affected by Qinxi Province. As far as he knew, more than a dozen provinces and cities across the country were affected to varying degrees. In some places, there was even no harvest! This severe drought not only exposed the

China's agriculture is still "relying on the weather", which also exposes problems that need to be solved, such as incomplete agricultural infrastructure in rural areas, weak monitoring and early warning facilities, farmers' low awareness of drought resistance, and excessive use of water resources.

"During the meeting, an agricultural expert made a deep impression on me. He said that since the reform and opening up, due to the rapid economic development in the south, my country's food focus has shifted from the south to the south where water resources are abundant. The trend of intense migration from the north. And this trend has become more obvious after entering the new century. In many southern provinces, farmers' enthusiasm for growing grain has dropped significantly, and the total grain output has declined. However, the grain output in the north has been increasing year by year. Improvement, the traditional south-to-north grain transportation has now become north-to-south grain transportation! This phenomenon must attract the attention of the country. The reason why northern grain-producing areas can ensure grain output is because many originally low-yielding fields are due to The improvement of irrigation facilities has turned high-yield fields into high-yield fields. On the other hand, it is also due to the over-exploitation of groundwater resources in the north! In many places, due to the over-exploitation of groundwater all year round, a large number of underground funnel areas have appeared. If this continues, it will cause big problems." Zhao Xuan said solemnly.

"Yes, grain was brought to Beijing back then." Fang Mingyuan sighed. This problem cannot be ignored, but to say that the country has not noticed it is definitely nonsense. The problem is that the income of domestic farmers is meager, which is well known.

Due to the faster economic development in the south than in the north, a large number of agricultural laborers have abandoned agriculture to work in industry and business. The domestic land policy has determined that the fields under the names of these agricultural laborers cannot be transferred smoothly. In addition, the high cost of food production and the foreign

The low-price dumping of grain has made southerners less and less motivated for agricultural production. It is not surprising that grain from the south to the north has been transported from the north to the south.

Zhao Xu'an came to Pingchuan Ancient City, of course, not just to tell Fang Mingyuan the news, but more importantly to discuss the funding issues needed to promote large-scale water-saving agriculture and build and repair irrigation facilities in Tongyi. Although Tongyi's economy

It has been on the right track. The fiscal deficit is constantly shrinking every year, and the debt is also constantly decreasing. It can be said that it has entered a virtuous cycle stage. But this does not mean that Tongyi's finances are loose. Large-scale

The funds required to promote water-saving agriculture and build and repair irrigation facilities are not a small amount, they will be in the billions. Therefore, in order to ensure that Tongyi's fiscal deficit does not surge and disrupt the city's fiscal budget, Zhao Xuan

I hope Fang Mingyuan can agree that the share originally arranged by Tongyi Finance for the Fang family this year and next can be suspended and paid instead at a later date.

"Uncle Zhao, you are so smart in calculating this account!" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile. Instead of investing the funds that were originally going to be handed over to the Fang family into agricultural construction, this will not increase Tongyi City's debt burden, and will also repay the debt.

You don't have to bear the huge interest incurred because of this, so the savings are not a small amount.

"We also believe that Mr. Fang will give strong support before making such a suggestion." Zhao Xu'an also smiled, "Besides, with this investment of funds, Tongyi's future economic prospects will be brighter and the base will be larger.

, Mr. Fang, your future profits will naturally be more substantial, isn’t it? Tongyi’s basic agricultural facilities are indeed in need of major repairs.”

Fang Mingyuan sighed and said, "Uncle Zhao, you don't need to convince me. I understand the truth. There is no problem in borrowing money temporarily, but the name must be clearly stated." It's not that he cares about this income, Tong Yi is also here.

This year's fiscal budget only officially listed the share to be given to the Fang family. In the previous years, Fang Mingyuan had given up collecting it. But the current situation in the country is like this. If Fang Mingyuan dares to publicly claim that all the taxes he paid for Tongyi that year will be

If you give up, something will definitely happen in the future. Moreover, the money will probably not be kept in Tongyi, and will be taken away by others under various names. And after setting such a precedent, the consequences will be

The subsequent reactions are also extremely troublesome. Therefore, Fang Mingyuan must make it clear that the money is considered a loan, but he does not intend to charge interest.

"Of course!" Zhao Xuan said sternly. He also understood the reason. People in the province were not the only ones who were concerned about Tongyi's wealth. If this hole was opened, it would cause trouble for themselves in the future. Moreover, he was also confident.

, with Tongyi's economic development speed, there will be no pressure to pay off the money in the future, and naturally there is no need to take advantage of the Fang family.

After talking about the business, Zhao Xu'an stood up and left. Before getting into the car, he said again: "Master Fang, I want to remind you that there is a huge funding gap in the province to renovate rural infrastructure. It is estimated that many people will come forward in the future.

Come and ask for alms."
