Rebirth to 90s: Start from Scratch

The meeting with Fan Jialiang went smoothly, and Fan Jialiang also promised to go through the resignation procedures after going back.

When Gong Zhihua and Fan Jialiang came, they were almost ready for dinner, so naturally they had to eat a meal.

After the two left, Zhang Qianxiu had nothing to do with him, so he read the book for a while.

In the afternoon, Qiu Xuewen came, and Tang Hui was with him.

Several people said hello, and Qiu Xuewen took out two videotapes: "Boss Zhang, this is the film. I'll find a video player to watch it later."

Video players are now a rare gadget. People born after 1990 may see fewer of them, and some have never seen them. Most of the people who have seen them are VCDs and later DVDs.

A video player is also a video tape player, and some places like to call it a video recorder.

Zhang Qianxiu recruited a waiter: "Hello, do you have a video player here? Can you find one for me?"

The waiter knows that Zhang Qianxiu often comes to the hotel. At one meeting, the leader even said that he should serve Zhang Qianxiu and others well. Even if Zhang Qianxiu has any unreasonable requirements, he can satisfy as much as possible. If the waiter can't be the master, then go to the hotel. Foreman or manager.

The waiter quickly reacted: "Mr. Zhang, I'm going to ask the foreman about this. I'll see you in five minutes, okay?"

Zhang Qianxiu nodded: "Okay, find one for me if you have one, forget it if you don't."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang." The waiter responded.

After the waiter left, Zhang Qianxiu said to Qiu Xuewen: "Guide Qiu, let's go in and sit down. There are some things, let me talk to you."

Qiu Xuewen smiled and nodded: "Okay!"

Zhang Qianxiu and Qiu Xuewen walked ahead. Tang Hui had very few opportunities to come to high-end hotels like this, and she didn't know if she wanted to follow suit.

Su Yuwei greeted her when she saw this, "Sister Tang Hui, it's all her own, it's okay, just a little bit of it, let's go in together! Your boss sometimes just like this, just forget people when they talk about things."

Zhang Qianxiu actually didn't expect it, so he didn't greet Tang Hui.

When he arrived in the room, Zhang Qianxiu asked, "Director Qiu, do you have any other commercials to shoot recently?"

Qiu Xuewen smiled bitterly: "In general, there may be a few commercials in the second half of the year, but basically nothing in the first half of the year."

"It's almost New Year's Eve now, and the photos to be shot have already been shot."

"Like Boss Zhang, the shooting of your commercial is relatively late."

Zhang Qianxiu probably understood that, in other words, Qiu Xuewen basically had no work to do in the first half of the year.

"Director Qiu, what do you usually do in the first half of the year?" Zhang Qianxiu asked.

Qiu Xuewen said: "I have a good relationship with a few directors, helping to make movies and TV shows, and eat a lot of food. I will act as an assistant director or something, which is actually a choreography."

"The director has too many things, and he doesn't have time to deal with some miscellaneous things. I shoot commercials, and I am quite good at some things on the scene."

"In the final analysis, it means doing a job and eating a meal."

Zhang Qianxiu nodded slightly and asked, "Does Director Qiu design posters or something?"

"This is a bit better." Qiu Xuewen said: "This is probably the biggest difference between our radio directors and TV drama directors. Our radio directors must learn aesthetics. The length of the advertisement is only one or two minutes, and the short one is only a few seconds, so every One second, every frame is very important."

"Of course, I'm not saying that TV series and movies can be shot casually, but they are not as important as ours for aesthetics. They pay more attention to the atmosphere and the like shown by the plot and shooting techniques."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside, and Su Yuwei got up to open the door.

The waiter Zhang Qianxiu was looking for just now and the foreman of the hotel housing department came over with a video player.

There is a TV in the room, just plug it in and use it.

Several people were busy for a while. After Zhang Qianxiu expressed his gratitude, the waiter and the foreman left.

Zhang Qianxiu said: "Let's take a look at the advertisement first!"

"Okay!" Qiu Xuewen took a video tape and stuffed it into the player. The ad was short, five seconds long. It was a canned ad. The shot was actually not beautiful. At least in Zhang Qianxiu's opinion, it was similar to the later ad. Than, it is a bit rough.

This actually has a lot to do with the current shooting technology and post-production technology.

But the location where Qiu Xuewen shot was very well chosen, and it was placed in the house, which was a scene of a family eating canned food.

Qiu Xuewen paused to explain to Zhang Qianxiu a little bit. For example, in the advertisement, a plate of fresh oranges was placed on the table to show that the canned food is fresh; there are also a few canned empty bottles under the table. To behave, people often eat.

I have to say that when Qiu Xuewen explained this, Zhang Qianxiu felt Qiu Xuewen's intentions. Every second contained a lot of potential information, and every decoration had his intention.

But Zhang Qianxiu is very curious, can ordinary people understand these small decorations?

But in the end, the slogan impressed Zhang Qianxiu very deeply, and it was also what Zhang Qianxiu was most satisfied with.

The second advertisement is for cookies. Qiu Xuewen doesn’t explain it. Zhang Qianxiu can’t see so much information. Regardless of whether the information can be read or understood by others, what Zhang Qianxiu cares most is that the slogan is not remembered by others and the brand cannot be remembered. Remember.

As long as you remember, it doesn't matter whether the ad looks good or not.

Overall, Zhang Qianxiu is very satisfied with these two advertisements.

After reading it back and forth several times, Zhang Qianxiu said, "Director Qiu, I don't have any comments on these two advertisements, so that's pretty good."

Seeing that Zhang Qianxiu did not ask for changes, Qiu Xuewen heaved a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Boss Zhang, for your approval!"

"Director Qiu is polite, it's okay, I'll give Director Qiu a check for the balance. I don't have that much money." Zhang Qianxiu said.

Qiu Xuewen naturally has no opinion: "Okay! No problem."

Zhang Qianxiu feels that cheques are still relatively easy to use. Now, in addition to cheques, other payment methods are not very convenient.

Qiu Xuewen received the check, but he was still a little excited. With this advertisement, he made more than 30,000 yuan. This is the time he has made the most money in this business.

These advertising directors now have some hardships compared to later.

Of course, it is much better than ordinary people. The money they make from an advertisement may be ordinary people's income for a year.

But now it may not be possible to shoot an advertisement in a year, after all, the advertising market is only so big.

After Qiu Xuewen expressed his gratitude again, Zhang Qianxiu also politely said a few words, and then asked: "Guide Qiu, do you have any interest in becoming the technical manager of the publicity department for my company?"

"Technical manager?" Qiu Xuewen asked, "Boss Zhang, would you let me go to work at your place?"

Zhang Qianxiu nodded: "Yes, you will be in charge of all the publicity and posters of our company in the future."

"If Director Qiu does not have enough experience in propaganda, he can design posters specifically."

"There is also the design of various packaging and so on."

Qiu Xuewen thought for a while and asked: "Boss Zhang, take the liberty to ask, if I go to you, what will my salary be like?"

"Include board and lodging, with a monthly salary of 680!" Zhang Qianxiu said, "I may go to a small county now, and in the future, I will go to one of the two cities, Shencheng and Pengcheng."

"Within three years, I will leave the small county."

There are 680 in a month, and there are more than 8,000 in a year. For Qiu Xuewen, this income is really not low.

He hasn't had this income for most of the year, and he has his own food and drink. Now, with Zhang Qianxiu, he has all the food and drink, and the money is spent by himself.

Qiu Xuewen only hesitated for a moment, and said, "As long as Boss Zhang doesn't dislike him, I'm willing to follow Boss Zhang."

Zhang Qianxiu said with a smile: "A talent like Director Qiu, I can't even ask for it, so how can I dislike it!"

"Director Qiu, then, after the Lantern Festival next year, before January 20 of the lunar calendar, just go to me. I will arrange work for you. The work content is what I just said. Help us design packaging, posters, etc. All kinds of activity design are all left to you."

Packaging, posters, and events are actually professional things. Just ask someone to do it, and you can make something for you, but after all, it's not as professional.

For several hundred yuan a month, Zhang Qianxiu felt that the money was still worth it.

In the future, Zhang Qianxiu will not let Qiu Xuewen only be responsible for a certain brand. As long as he is busy, the cannery, biscuit factory, and grain and oil factory will be handed over to him.

If he gets too busy in the future, he can arrange a few apprentices for him. Anyway, the least valuable now is labor.

Qiu Xuewen promised to come over, and everyone would talk more freely.

Zhang Qianxiu deliberately or unintentionally told Qiu Xuewen about the situation in the county town. Qiu Xuewen was also interested in learning more about it, after all, he was going to work in the future.

This chat is at night, and we have to eat together.

The next day, Zhang Qianxiu called Chen Fei early in the morning.

Chen Fei is currently in charge of Wanhui Biscuit Factory, and what he can do in terms of work is still possible. Before Zhang Qianxiu left, he solved all the difficult problems. He also asked Chen Fei to use promotion to gather a wave of people. Now there are many managements in the factory. They were all booked in advance by Zhang Qianxiu, and Chen Fei brought them up after taking office. These people were almost desperate for Chen Fei, so Chen Fei's work went very smoothly.

The call was quickly connected, and Chen Fei's voice came: "Hey...Hello, who?"

I have to say that now Chen Fei speaks in a different tone. Compared with the timidity before, she is now more confident and more aura.

Zhang Qianxiu said, "Chen Fei, it's me, Zhang Qianxiu!"

Chen Fei knew Zhang Qianxiu was the one who heard her voice, and her aura was suddenly weak by three points: "Good boss!"

Zhang Qianxiu asked, "How is the situation in the factory now?"

Chen Fei said: "It is steady and rising, and sales have been increasing. I want to tell you that after the year we will recruit a group of assembly line workers, otherwise the production may not be able to keep up."

Zhang Qianxiu said: "You don't have to wait for next year. I will hire people now. In a few days, a set of ads for our cookies will be shown. Sales will definitely increase. The packaging will be changed."

"The other thing is, our original production line may not be enough. You can contact the official and say that we want the surrounding land, and we can ask for as much land as we can."

Chen Fei asked: "Then what price do we charge for this land?"

Zhang Qianxiu said: "If you don't pay, let the official give it for free."

Chen Fei was taken aback and said cautiously: "Boss, I... I'll go and tell the official, I guess they will kick me out!"

Zhang Qianxiu said: "The land around our Wanhui Factory is all official. I have known it."

"You go to the official people to talk, just tell them that the factory needs to increase investment and expand its scale. There is no decision yet on what to build the factory in."

"You can also contact the neighboring county, not to mention the investment, just say that after it is completed, it will provide employment for at least 5,000 people."

"But you need official support. To put it simply, the government will give you the land, how many years it will be used for you for free, and after how many years, talk about it or buy it again."

"Secondly, let the government provide you with support for drainage, water supply, electricity, and transportation."

"The factory has been built, five thousand people eat and drink, and one person goes to a toilet. The drainage and sewage cannot be solved. This is a big trouble."

"There is also electricity. A factory with 5,000 people uses such thin wires. All the machines are turned, and the wires can be burnt in a few minutes. These are all public facilities. We can’t do it ourselves. The wires inside our factory , We can solve it by ourselves. What about the outside transformer and the outside power supply line? It must be officially solved."

"So, for these things, the authorities have to solve them for us. If we don't solve them well, we will not vote, or we will vote elsewhere."

Chen Fei never thought that one day she would run to negotiate terms with the official, but she still felt a little nervous: "Boss, what if he doesn't agree to it?"

Zhang Qianxiu sighed and said, "Chen Fei, you can't think of the government too much, too omnipotent. Localities also need to develop, they also want taxes, and they must also be stable."

"Why are the streets so chaotic now? Do you really think that safety is a matter of public order? Actually it is not."

"Policy is only part of the reason, the fundamental reason is that those gangsters have nothing to do."

"We can provide 5,000 jobs. There may be two to three hundred people who are on the street. When these two or three hundred people enter the factory, there is no time to go out and the work of public security management will be much easier. "

"If there are enough jobs, the number of gangsters on the street will be reduced by 80% to 90%, and only 10% to 20% will stay in the street for those who do not want to work and want to gang up."

"It's easy for the officials to crack down on these two mixed ups."

"If there are not enough jobs to provide, the official strikes once, hides for a few days, stays at home for a long time, still has nothing to do, and comes out to make trouble again."

"Secondly, if there are more jobs and more jobs, the official data will look good. This is their performance."

"Furthermore, our factory is big, and we have to pay taxes. He used the land for us to lay drainage pipes, water supply systems, and replace wires. The tax he will collect every year in the future is to make money back. Yes, now he fixes it for us, and can still cry poor with the above, shouting for development, let the above share a little with the county town, and the above will also give them money."

"You don't have to worry about us taking advantage. In the end, the official will not lose, but their benefits are in places you can't see."

Chen Fei was stunned when she heard it, and said, "Boss, I'll go to the official first, and contact the official leader first."

Zhang Qianxiu gave an "um" and said, "When you go, you have to act as the boss and show that you can make any decision, and you are the final decision maker."

"In the beginning, the conditions were raised a little bit, and a little bit more. Some interest-free loans are required, and a few years free of charge are required."

"Now a 200-person factory is considered big, and a 5,000-person factory will be taken seriously."

Chen Fei was actually very bottomless, but Zhang Qianxiu said, she still responded.

Zhang Qianxiu hung up the phone after repeated instructions.

Zhang Qianxiu didn't know before, but he did an investigation later.

There are about 90,000 people in the county town. There are more than 10,000 people working in the government and related units, or officially providing posts. Almost all stable jobs are provided by the government.

These positions include civil servants, state-owned factories, and some temporary workers, including cleaners.

The remaining 80,000 people, not counted as self-employed, are employed by private enterprises, only about 3,000.

The rest are coolies or self-employed individuals who have no fixed jobs.

In other words, the employees hired in the store, the workers in the private factory, etc., are, in short, only about 3,000 people hired by the private boss.

Of course, this is not counted as the town below, just around the county seat.

Based on this data, Zhang Qianxiu felt that Wanhui's expansion to a factory with 5,000 people would be of great use to county officials.

To put it bluntly, five thousand workers can drive a commercial area.

Even if the worker does not spend money outside, he needs the most basic daily necessities, and he needs to eat and drink to solve the problem. Even if the factory provides food, he also has to buy vegetables, which can drive consumption.

Not to mention that some young workers among the workers do not save money. Even if there are 1,000 people out of 5,000 who do not save money, each person’s monthly salary is 200, which is 200,000 consumption a month.

Even if the average profit of various small shops is 25%, and the monthly turnover is 1,500, it can make more than 300 yuan. In this era, there are more than 300 incomes in a month, and after removing various costs, the net profit There can also be about two hundred, which is about the same as a part-time job, or even better than a part-time job. When working in a county, most people don't have two hundred a month.

In addition to the daily necessities consumed by the remaining 4,000 people, one person only spends ten yuan a month, and there is also 40,000 consumption.

Calculating in this way, a factory with 5,000 employees should have a monthly consumption of about 240,000, which can at least feed dozens of hundreds of small shops and small stalls. The employment and commodity circulation that this indirectly drives are all employment!

It is impossible for the government not to calculate this account.
