Chapter 149 The Drunkard’s Real Interest Is Not in the Wine

"He again?"

Zhou Jin, who was watching the program on TV, couldn't help but twitch his eyelids when he saw the donation ceremony. Su Ming's appearance rate during this period was too high. Although there was no direct danger to Zhou Jin, it was not a good thing after all.

From the director, he knew that the zoo would be restructured next year, so Zhou Jin was ready to do a big job this year, save some money, and use some connections next year to annex the zoo's Shuijun Lake.

He was an ambitious or aspiring person. The fishery company was just the beginning of his career. In his opinion, raising fish in Shuijun Lake would not make much money, but the location of Shuijun Lake was particularly good, echoing with Huating Reservoir, and it was a piece of "enclave" embedded in the zoo.

If Shuijun Lake was taken, and the zoo was restructured in the future, he would have a reason to erode the zoo's territory step by step.

The zoo was truly a Feng Shui treasure land, with mountains behind and water in front. Once the time was right and enough funds were raised, Zhou Jin could become a real estate developer!

No matter how big the fish farming industry is, it is hard work to raise fish for a lifetime. But real estate, or land trading, is well known for its huge profits. I have never heard of anyone who has become the richest man in the country through aquaculture. At most, he can become the richest man in the village. But in China, real estate has unlimited possibilities. If it is well managed, you can become one of the people standing at the top of the national wealth chain within a few years.

If Su Ming really becomes a celebrity, there will be great trouble in swallowing up his Shuijun Lake business in the future.

Baldhead accompanied Zhou Jin to watch TV, but his thoughts were completely different from his boss.

Baldhead didn't have any big ambitions. His biggest ideal was to follow a rich and powerful boss, have no worries about food and drink, and show off his power. Back then, he joined the most powerful "group" in the country and worked as an urban management officer for a while, but was soon cleared out of the revolutionary team. Later, he followed Zhou Jin, but after a few years of good life, he met Su Ming again.

When he saw Su Ming and the city leaders standing together for a photo, the bald man took a deep breath and thought to himself that the boy really had someone above him. Fortunately, he didn't offend him to death!

…

Everyone had their own concerns at Huating Reservoir, but Su Ming was very free. The park assigned him a separate office, where he kept fish, slept and read newspapers all day.

Just as the planning team had expected, Jacky's special concert and the news of adopting animals quickly dominated the headlines of major entertainment media for half a month. It was not until more than two weeks later that it was replaced by the news of a famous male star in China getting married.

Being replaced does not mean being forgotten. Due to a series of reports related to animals, a wave of "animal fever" has been set off. Celebrities, especially those in the entertainment industry, seem to have found a way to increase their popularity. The most popular thing on social media now is to show pets.

In the craze of showing pets everywhere, some "inappropriate" scenes also appeared. A female star who became a mother in Singapore posted photos of her baby as usual, which immediately attracted doubts and abuses, saying that she had no love...

"******, these people are all crazy. Is it because the material conditions are better now, so there are more psychopaths?" After seeing this news, Su Ming also had the same feeling as Jacky at the beginning. Is he out of date? What's in the minds of these young people now? Is it wrong for a mother to post photos of her son?

After Jacky, pet adoption soon became popular. There is not only one zoo in Yangchuan in the world. There are several in Hong Kong, as well as Disneyland. Major cities in the mainland also have their own zoos. Many facilities and animal species are better than those in Yangchuan Zoo. Then there are constant news that a certain star has adopted a certain animal, a certain big shot has an animal son or daughter, and a certain comedian has sworn brotherhood with a Siberian tiger...

The same trick, the first time it is used, it is a genius, the second time it is used, it is a smart person, and the third time it is a mediocre person...If it is used thirty times, it is a bit disgusting. Although there are more and more similar news, Su Ming found that the popularity is not as high as Jacky's adoption of the Yangtze River dolphin in Yangchuan that day. Not only that, every time there is a new adoption news, it will always mention the adoption event in Yangchuan City, which is equivalent to another free publicity.

Animals are everywhere in the world. If you want to adopt something, you don’t have to come to Yangchuan Zoo specifically. But if you want to tame animals to help with performances, especially live performances without special effects like concerts, then there is only Su Ming in the country, no one else.

There are no secrets under the sun, and Su Ming didn't want to keep this a secret. When Jacky made the headlines, the entertainment industry soon knew about his "special consultant". There was a capable person in Yangchuan Zoo!

Su Ming has received many invitations recently, hoping to bring animals to help with performances. Even Jacky himself called once, saying that he had a friend in the Hong Kong entertainment industry who wanted to ask Su Ming for help.

However, Su Ming declined one by one. First, there are limited types of animals suitable for performances. If a tiger is really brought on stage, various procedures will be very troublesome, and it is easy to be attacked by animal protection organizations; second, the reason why animal concerts attract attention is because they are rare. If there are two or three days, it will gradually become like a circus performance, which is too low-class.

Therefore, the current reputation of Yangchuan Zoo can almost be described as the four words "in the heyday". At least in the domestic animal circle, it seems that no zoo can reach the current popularity of Yangchuan Zoo, which can almost be compared with several world-famous entertainment spots such as Hong Kong Disneyland and Songjiang Disneyland.

Director Song recently applied to the higher authorities to have Yangchuan Zoo rated as a 5A national scenic spot.

This selection is not something that the Yangchuan Municipal Government can decide. It must be reported to the higher authorities, and whether it can be approved depends on the decision of the higher authorities.

In fact, including Su Ming, from the zoo staff to Wang Jianshe and the deputy mayor Sun, everyone knows the result clearly in their hearts: absolutely impossible! No matter how famous Yangchuan Zoo is, due to problems such as venues and hardware conditions, there is still a hard gap from the 5A scenic spot.

5A scenic spots are generally awarded to large tourist areas with many attractions. There is only one theme park with a limited area like a zoo that has been rated as 5A in the country, the Forbidden City.

But if the higher authorities do not approve it, it does not mean that the application cannot be made. The crying child gets the milk. Taking advantage of the current popularity of the zoo, it is necessary to show up more on the higher authorities. This is the real purpose.

The real purpose is not to drink. The application for the 5A scenic spot has been approved. After a long string of official jargon, the conclusion is that it does not meet the requirements of a 5A scenic spot.

"Okay, okay!" Both Su Ming and Director Song laughed happily!
