Chapter 1999 Don’t Think Too Simply

Feng Yiping met in the afternoon with the head of Marvel's toy department.

This is a business unit that also has great potential, especially for a company like Marvel with its many superheroes.

I have to say that the West is indeed much better than us in industrializing film and television productions. They have been developing film peripheral businesses for a long time.

For example, Star Wars lightsabers, stormtroopers, Superman's underwear, Batman's various tanks...

Not to mention Disney. What supports its development in parks around the world is mainly the sales of film and television related peripherals.

Let's put it this way, for many movies produced by Hollywood, as long as their box office revenue can reach 70% of the investment cost, there is no need to worry about losing money.

In our country, the earliest people who made film and television peripherals may not have been in the film and television industry. It seems that they started in 1998 when Titanic was released.

There will be many smart people who saw business opportunities from that movie and stand in front of various theaters selling whistles, and it is said that the business is quite good.

Excellent works have such charm that they can make adults spend money to buy whistles that even children don’t want.

Feng Yiping also hopes that Marvel’s toy department can do this.

"I think we should have everything from high, middle and low-end products. High-end products, as you can imagine, should be electric and controllable. They can be our superheroes, the means of transportation for superheroes, or the ones in movies. Various robots..."

"Moreover, it should be rechargeable," he said. He has a lithium battery production base with increasing capacity, and it is always right to attract more business.

He added to Palmater, who accompanied him in the meeting, "Our comic production department should pay attention to this issue when creating in the future. It is best to create several popular characters, just like the one in Star Wars Same as R2-D2 intelligent robot,"

"As for the creativity of toys, I think our domestic design studios should be able to do a lot of work in this regard,"

It’s also a matter of keeping the money in the hands of outsiders. Besides, it is backed by universities such as Tsinghua University that have the first-class industrial design capabilities in the country. In addition, several of the products it produces have become hot hits. The ability of Magic Workshop is also a lever. of.

If Feng Yiping had that determination, Magic Workshop could successfully land on the A-share market with the help of Tsinghua Science and Technology Park.

"Of course, I think it is necessary for the toy company to immediately send a team to China for inspection. I think that after they come back from the inspection, they will easily come to the conclusion that building our production base in China will not only cost more It will be as low as you can imagine, and the efficiency will be as high as you can imagine,"

"They will easily come to the conclusion that the future of manufacturing must be in China,"

"We have heard about this for a long time. After hearing what you said, Feng, I am more confident. I will form a team immediately and go to China for inspection," said the toy company, who is burly and has a bushy beard. General Manager Wade said immediately.

"I believe that we will not be unable to find suitable inspection subjects in China, right Feng,"

He was also indirectly touting Feng Yiping's influence in the country.

"Tell my assistant your requirements and itinerary, and the country will prepare everything for you in advance." Feng Yiping looked at his watch and hurriedly put away his things, "Sorry, gentlemen, I have to go home now."

Tonight, he couldn't let the two children who had left their mother have dinner and sleep without his company.

…………

In China, this is the time when various units start to work.

In the courtyard of the Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, which seemed a bit cold or dignified because of the deep flowers and trees, Vice Mayor Sun and Liu Jizhong were sitting in a reception room, waiting to be received by the leaders.

"Mr. Liu, this meeting will directly affect the province's support for Dongcheng and whether Dongcheng Airlines will be approved by the Civil Aviation Administration of China as soon as possible. I think you must be ready,"

"Don't worry, Mayor Sun," Liu Jizhong, who was sitting upright, patted his chest and said, "You still don't know what I, Old Liu, do? We have revised drafts of this report several times. We will not disappoint the leader or you,"

Vice Mayor Sun’s words also have another meaning: Let me read the manuscript first and help you check it.

But Liu Jizhong didn't seem to realize this.

Regarding this point, Vice Mayor Sun did not force it. He had already felt the changes in Liu Jizhong in some aspects. As his Dongcheng Airlines became more and more clear, this old friend who grew up with the reform and opening up treated him, Obviously not as attentive as in the past.

This couldn't help but remind him of Feng Yiping, whom he had come into contact with.

Whether it was when he was still in high school and already had astonishing wealth, or now, when he is a world-renowned business leader and his personal wealth is among the best in the world, his attitude towards himself has never changed. .

Although he has always deliberately kept a distance, he has always been polite and polite. There has never been any difference because the people he comes in contact with are at a higher level and his net worth is getting higher and higher.

There are hundreds of people here, all kinds of people.

As we all know, Feng Yiping always downplays his achievements and wealth, but the man in front of him unceremoniously downplays his wealth. It is estimated that what he hopes most is to be listed in Forbes. Rich list, and the higher the ranking, the better.

Deputy Mayor Sun did not dwell on this. Liu Jizhong was not the same Liu Jizhong as before, and he, Old Sun, was no longer the Wuxia Amon of the past.

"You have met the leader once, and you have a certain understanding of him, so Old Liu, I want to advise you in the name of a friend. The more plain the language of the report, the better, and the more specific the content of the report, the better,"

"I understand. Thank you for the mayor's concern," Liu Jizhong looked at the door, and seemed a little impatient.

Seeing this scene, Deputy Mayor Sun shook his head.

Some things should not be thought too simply. It is not so easy to get in touch with a leader who is in charge of a region.

"Deputy Mayor Sun, Mr. Liu," a secretary said at the door, "please follow me,"

"Thank you," Liu Jizhong, who picked up the briefcase, almost walked in front of Deputy Mayor Sun.

…………

“Thank you Secretary for taking the time out of your busy schedule to meet me. Dongcheng Group’s achievements today are inseparable from the support of leaders at all levels, including you. I would like to thank you and leaders at all levels for your support in the establishment of Dongcheng Airlines,” Liu Jizhong said politely, bending down and holding the hands of the provincial leader with both hands.

“Please sit down, Mr. Liu,” the secretary said with a smile.

He took a sip of his tea cup and asked, “What stage has the establishment of Dongcheng Airlines reached now? How much support do our functional departments have for this work?”

“Next is the most critical step. We hope to get the approval of the Civil Aviation Administration of China and officially prepare for establishment. To get to this point, it all depends on the strong support of leaders at all levels,” Liu Jizhong said.

In fact, you can highlight me individually at this time, said Deputy Mayor Sun who came with him.

“Oh? It seems that this time, our relevant leaders have done a good job,” the secretary crossed his legs and sat on the sofa with a relaxed look.

“Secretary, I think this is also related to the benefits that our Dongcheng plan can bring to the province and the city,” Liu Jizhong said excitedly.

Deputy Mayor Sun was a little dumbfounded. Is this the report you carefully prepared? Why do I feel that this trend is similar to what you said in front of me?

The following words verified Deputy Mayor Sun's speculation. What Liu Jizhong said was exactly what he had heard more than once.

"An airline company can greatly boost the local economy. In our province, a project with an investment of several hundred million yuan is a big project, and the aircraft we plan to introduce is worth several hundred million yuan each,"

"We plan to introduce 30 aircraft, which will increase the assets of more than 10 billion yuan, bring several billion yuan of GDP to the local area every year, and guarantee nearly 100 million yuan in tax revenue a year..."

"Very good," the secretary nodded slightly, "I remember that there seemed to be two state-owned airlines that were not large in our province?"

"Yes," this happened to be what Liu Jizhong liked to say, "China Southern Airlines and China Eastern Airlines currently have only ten aircraft in our province,"

"So, as two powerful state-owned airlines, they have been developing in the province for such a long time, and their fleets are still maintained at a scale of 10. Is it possible that this just shows the fierce competition in the aviation field?" The secretary asked softly.

Liu Jizhong, who was somewhat complacent, said, "This..."
