Save the Bachelor of Heaven

At the end of March, Xiang Nan and Li Shuihua set off to Yanjing to attend a symposium held by the People's Literature Magazine.

Since moving to Jintan Village, Li Shuihua sold Yijianmei clothing store out. Now she has nothing to do and is thinking about starting a new business.

Xiang Nan advised her not to worry, but to adapt to local conditions, find suitable projects, and then invest. Otherwise, get on the horse in a hurry, and at that time, losing money is nothing, the key is to blow your confidence.

Li Shuihua nodded. He has been collecting and organizing information for the past two months, and he is still learning to drive by the way.

...

Taking the train all the way to Yanjing, after checking into the hotel, Xiang Nan walked around with Splash. Forbidden City, Fragrant Hills, Summer Palace, Wangfujing, Beihai Park, Badaling Great Wall...

After a good stroll, Xiang Nan went to the symposium.

Sure enough, as expected, the so-called symposium was nothing but bragging and praising.

You are a giant in the literary world, and I am a leader in the literary world; you are a general in the literary world, and I am a pioneer in the literary world; you are a rookie in the literary world, and I am a young eagle in the literary world...

This phenomenon of blowing each other up in the literary world is actually not uncommon at all, and it has been popular as early as ancient times.

For example, Xie Lingyun said that Cao Zijian said that there is only one stone in the world. Cao Zijian has eight fights alone, and I have one fight. They have been divided into one fight since ancient times and today.

Du Fu made "The Song of the Eight Immortals in Drinking", and praised Li Bai, He Zhizhang, Li Shizhi, Zhang Xu and other eight people...

The so-called flower sedan chair people lift people. You praise me, I praise you, everyone is famous, everyone has interests, why not do it.

Xiang Nan is not an evil, crazy, lonely and proud stunned young man. He has long understood the reality of society, so he is like a fish in water at the symposium, and has won unanimous praise from his peers.

This also greatly expanded his network.

...

"Yongfu, I have some good news for you. Yanjing Television Art Center wants to adapt your novel, "A Woman Crossing the River of Men" into a TV series. I don't know if you agree or not?" Writer Chen Jiangong smiled to Xiang Nan .

Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan nodded with a smile.

Yanjing TV Art Center was founded in 1982. Since its establishment, it has become the leader in the mainland TV industry and created countless firsts.

For example, the first full-length TV series "Four Generations Under One Roof", the first indoor feature-length TV series "Desire", the first TV humorous light comedy "Story of the Editorial Department"...

Every TV series launched can cause great repercussions in China.

It was going to adapt "The Woman Who Wades Over the River of Men", which was naturally a good thing for Xiang Nan.

Getting copyright fees is just a trivial matter. Xiang Nan was worth hundreds of millions, so he really looked down on the tens of thousands of yuan in film and television copyright fees. However, the adaptation of film and television dramas is of great help to his promotion of fame.

The influence of television is now increasing day by day, far greater than books, radio, and newspapers.

Wang Yi, Haizheng, Jin Yong... all rely on wave after wave of TV adaptations to become so famous all over the country. Naturally, Xiang Nan also hopes to take advantage of this shareholder's wind.

Fame is beneficial. If you are famous, you can better protect your own interests.

Therefore, in the following negotiations, Xiang Nan was very cooperative and didn't even ask for copyright fees, only a symbolic 10,000 yuan.

...

After the seven-day symposium, Xiang Nan took Shuihua to Songzhuang again, and bought a large number of works by contemporary painters who were not yet famous. In addition, I went to Liulichang and bought a large number of cultural antiques.

In February 1993, the Chinese stock market fell again, which once again severely damaged the confidence of stockholders. The next three years were a big bear market, with the stock market sluggish.

Therefore, if Xiang Nan wants to make money, he can only invest in antiques and contemporary oil paintings.

These things are still relatively cheap, and it is not uncommon for the price to increase ten or a hundred times in ten or twenty years.

Seeing Xiang Nan buying these incomprehensible paintings and these tattered old gadgets, Shui Hua'er was surprised, but she didn't stop her.

She believed that there must be a reason for Xiang Nan to do this. She couldn't understand it, it was because she was stupid and didn't reach that level.

After shopping, Xiang Nan immediately asked someone to hire a car to drive to the northwest. Wenwan, antiques, and oil paintings are not enough for a car, so Moutai is used to fill them.

In the 1990s, the railway was still the boss of the railway, with ugly words, ugly faces, and difficult things to do.

However, Xiang Nan begged for a friend, and it was settled quickly. This is the benefit of networking.

...

On the way back, Shui Hua told Xiang Nan that she had already figured out what to do.

"Yongfuer, I want to open a clothing factory." She told Xiang Nandao, "On the one hand, the clothing market is huge. People's life is inseparable from food, clothing, housing and transportation, and clothes can always be sold; on the other hand, clothing profits are high. A piece of clothing shipped from the south costs only a few yuan, but can be sold for more than ten yuan."

"Don't rush to make a decision. Let me ask you first, you must have raw materials to make clothing. Where do you get the cloth? The clothing industry in the south is developed because the coastal areas have a developed textile industry and the transportation of goods is also convenient.

But in Yanxia, ​​where do you buy cloth? How much higher do you pay for cloth than in the south? How expensive are your clothes going to sell, how much profit will you make if you sell them cheaply, and is there still a market if you sell them expensively?

Moreover, garment factories are labor-intensive industries that require a large number of skilled workers. Where do you recruit these workers, how to train them, and how to manage them? Do you have any idea?

In addition, the garment factory is only a processing enterprise and needs to receive orders to survive. Where do you pick up the order from? Well, I think that if you want to make your own products and sell them yourself, then you have to establish your own brand.

How to establish your own brand, how to promote it, how to market it, how to protect your rights...do you understand all of these? "

After hearing what Xiang Nan had said, Shui Hua blinked her eyes, unable to answer a word.

She hadn't thought about these things before.

"So think about it carefully." Xiang Nan persuaded, "Don't rush to make a decision."

Splash nodded.

...

Back in Jintan Village, Xiang Nan put away the oil paintings, liquor, antiques, etc. he bought in the basement.

These are all his treasures, and all of them will be worth a lot in the future.

After returning to the village, Xiang Nan continued to lead everyone in fruit tree care.

Splash also started to solve the problems mentioned by Xiang Nan, such as the introduction of fabrics, the recruitment of employees, the training of teachers, the management of talents... driving around every day.

Xiang Nan sent Ma Debao to follow.

First, he is bold, second, he is clever, and third, they have a good relationship.

Ma Debao regards Shuihua as his own sister, and if something happens, he will dare to risk his life for her.

Moreover, Xiang Nan also intends to cultivate Ma Debao and make him a management talent in the future.

In such busy work, the problems faced by Shuihua were solved one by one.

In terms of cloth, it is purchased from Yinchuan Textile Factory.

In the 1990s, after entering the market economy, the state-owned textile factories had a fairly good profit before, but these years have been difficult. The technology is backward, the goods are backlogged, the wages are in arrears, and I am eager to have a big customer, so it is still easy to talk.

In terms of employees, first poach corners from large state-owned factories. In addition to regular workers, state-run factories also have contract workers. In the past two years, because of the underemployment, many people can only take shifts and other days off, and their wages are only one-half or one-third of the normal wages. Life is difficult, so they are still willing to come to work.

As for management talents, they are also poaching from state-owned factories. Splash is going to invite those retired workshop directors to come to the factory for management. There are still many people who want to make use of their residual heat and take up leadership positions again.
