Chapter 328: It's better to ask people to fish than to ask people to fish
Gu Biao is not a person who is easily blindly moved by stories, as an IT person in later generations, although he has not personally invested in depth, he also knows how those guys who hold PPT to draw big cakes and deceive people talk.
In other words, he has already seen through the words and tricks of these miserable people in the 80s.
Director Ou's heart-wrenching statement just now is of course a counterattack against the cultural industry cake that Gu Biao painted before, but at the same time, he himself is not selling the cake of feelings.
Gu Biao is eye-catching, and he can see how much of what Director Ou said is the inheritance of tradition, and how much is the extensive expansion of high-polluting and low-efficiency private goods.
Therefore, he declares with a hidden blade in his words:
"Since the development history and process precipitation of copper in Zhuxian are also part of the rare traditional culture, it is indeed inappropriate to talk about the rash closure of all copper factories. ”
The first sentence was very level, and he stabilized Director Ou and other masters who wanted to make trouble, and then Gu Biao reprimanded him directly:
"However, you can't blame others for misunderstanding you, look at the way you are now! This way of working, such extensive pollution, where is there a little cultural inheritance!
How many traditional crafts have you inherited? How much cultural accumulation do you have? What is the cultural level of other workers and masters except for Director Ou? Is the necessary knowledge and eloquence enough to understand the relevant cultural heritage?"
In just a few words, they were speechless.
One of the middle-aged coppersmiths couldn't help but defend: "We just need to have craftsmanship, what is the matter with this cultural level?"
"Maybe it's okay now, but if I want to find a way for you, it does. Because if you want to inherit and carry forward the cultural industry, you must be able to sell yourself, otherwise others will not be able to see your historical accumulation and strength, and the aroma of wine will be afraid of deep alleys!"
Gu Biao came to a categorical conclusion, and put the specific method of the cake
"If you believe me, I'll show you the way out. In the future, we will strictly prevent pollution, clean production, upgrade technology, and specialize in high-end routes. The first is to cast traditional bronze handicrafts, focusing on the selling point of historical feelings. Of course, this step will not make money for at least ten years, and the Chinese have no spare money to spend this for the time being, but we can let Yu himself come to the pilgrimage.
Not to mention other ancient things, you are just to build a Xuande furnace that imitates the Ming Dynasty, although it can't really be sold at the price of cultural relics in the Ming Dynasty, but there are many rich people who are willing to spend money to collect and put it on a wide range. The reason why we have not been able to do it in the past few years is, in the final analysis, that we do not publicize it and do not pay attention to it, and the real cultural relics are sold cheaply. If we don't pay attention to our own culture and historical heritage, and say that these are 'old', how can foreigners respect us?
Second, it is to make weapons and props for costume dramas for the film and television base in Xiao County in the future. In the future, film production will become more and more sophisticated, and there will only be more and more people who are willing to spend a lot of money to make realistic props. You can't imagine how much money those craftsmen in Hollywood who have good craftsmanship and historical heritage can make by making props for film effects companies!"
Gu Biao's words, the scale is actually a bit big. After all, Zhuxian is a small county close to the Huiji Mountains, not a provincial capital, and the news is not very well-informed. Some people couldn't turn their minds when they heard Gu Biao's words.
Although the country has been open for three years, in the minds of these people, they have not completely twisted the string of "shabby is wrong".
Will these things really be worth money in the future?
"Are you doubting that these things will really be worth anything in the future? All I can say is that it depends on what we do in the future. Foreigners will only value traditional culture if we value it. And this is a process, it's not that you want to make money today, pretend to sell feelings, foreigners will believe it all at once, foreigners are not stupid, collectors are not stupid.
But if you give up on yourself, you will never have a chance to keep such a long-standing brand and make money from pollution and extensive pollution! Think about it, the more valuable brand, Ruoye River, which is the place where the cadre Mo Ye Ou Yezi mined copper and forged swords, was put into the way it is now, polluting his hometown, casting plumbing pipes for people, and radiators for refrigerators, are you willing to take on such work?"
When Gu Biao said this, he suddenly remembered that his father was now the director of the Qiantang Oxygen Concentrator Factory.
As the largest household of self-made refrigerators in the province, Qianyang's demand for copper products for radiators/heat exchangers is very huge.
So Gu Biao paused, turned around and asked Gu Min: "Sister, did you ask the copper factory here in Zhuxian to purchase pipes for superheat exchangers?"
"I know how it is, it seems to be. I've seen it in the planning document. Gu Min replied.
Lu Damin, the county magistrate who has been silent, also secretly complained, and could only claim: "Qian Yang is the largest customer of the two state-owned copper factories in our counties......"
In Wuyue Province, only the counties and Yiwu in the mountains further south have copper mines, so it is normal for heavy industry enterprises in the province to purchase copper products and ask the nearest enterprises in the province to place orders.
The two biggest needs for copper products are nothing more than heat exchange and cables. The copper required for the cable is not quite the same as the production capacity of Zhuxian here, because that thing only pays attention to the metallurgy and purity of copper, and does not require modeling and processing technology.
"Go back and tell my dad that from the next year, I will cut all the orders from the counties here, and let the supply and marketing department purchase copper parts of refrigerators from other provinces! Anyway, Qian Yang is rich now, and he has to talk about social benefits. Gu Biao casually took a fancy job, and with one sentence, he killed the largest order of the two state-owned copper factories in Zhuxian County.
If you want to do something, you have to carrot and stick like this, while finding a way for others, and at the same time, one sentence can second the hope of others.
Originally, Director Ou also hoped to weigh it and confirm that Gu Biao could pull enough orders for costume drama bronze props from foreign-funded film companies, and then use this as a threat to reduce production and increase output value.
Now people are directly pinching the big back road.
A group of rebels were completely paralyzed.
The initiative was completely pinched back by Gu Biao in an instant.
Gu Biao gave orders to Lu Damin for a long time: "County Magistrate Lu, I have already thought of a way out for you to transform into a movie props factory." I will pinch Qian Yang's list until the year after tomorrow, and I will also leave you a year and a half of stable transformation time. What you do depends on your determination.
From the next year at the latest, I will find a way to help you win some props orders from foreign film companies, even if they are not filmed in Xiaoxian Cinema, you can also use props from Zhuxian Props Factory. However, I will also bid, and it is impossible for all nine copper factories in your county to be eligible to get the order.
You yourself should integrate high-quality resources, eliminate unscrupulous enterprises that steal mines and secretly discharge, study technology, improve personnel quality, and improve publicity and brand building. With Jinshan Yinshan, you must also be able to cooperate with the market, understand customer needs, and understand what customers really want, so that you can make money. There's not much time for today, so I'll leave it at that, so take the time to study it. ”
Gu Biao's path is actually very conscientious, and he doesn't slap his thigh at all.
Because he traveled to Zhenhengdian more than once in his later life, and also had an in-depth understanding of the local situation. Not to mention the ordinary laborers of the entire town of Hengdian, they have all found good jobs in the film industry, and they have been driven by several surrounding towns.
Almost all those who used to be tailors have become costumes suppliers to the studio.
All the former blacksmiths, carpenters, craftsmen, and even the metalworking and lumber mills in the original township have become the props suppliers of Hengdian Cinema.
Engage in all civil construction to landscaping,
If you really don't know anything, you can only cook and stir-fry, you can send a lunch box to the crew like flowing water, open a hostel in the family's house or rent it to Hengpiao.
It is really not a problem for the film city to be the size of Hengdian and feed the labor force of half the county.
Lu Damin's remark that "thousands of households directly rely on the copper factory in the county to work, and more people provide peripheral services for the copper factory" will not be a matter at all at that time.
It's just that everything takes time, and within ten or eight years, it is impossible to grow to the scale of the future generations. Only those who are willing to believe in Gu Biao and follow him down are worthy of making a lot of money.
If it is well coordinated, there will be direct investment in the future.
Lu Damin and Director Ou were completely convinced.
Director Ou thought of his rudeness just now, he had heard that Gu Biao was going to engage in some "bidding", and he had never heard of the details of the bidding operation, so he only offended Gu Biao, so the good fruit was taken away by other copper factories in the county.
His face suddenly turned like earth, and he pleaded: "Boss Gu, I was blinded by lard just now, you must not engage in any bidding, I know that you must see that our factory is not pleasing to the eye, but our things are really good, and the craftsmanship is also real! You can check the customers we have supplied, there is half a lie, I will not die!"
However, at this moment, even Lu Damin didn't protect him anymore.
Because Lu Damin is the county magistrate, what he needs to protect is the county's industry, as long as Gu Biao can make the county's copper industry in the transformation, the overall output value and income will be larger, and he doesn't care which copper factory is moisturized and which one is merged.
At most, the mayor of Diankou has to support Ou Mingde, because the other copper factories are not in this town.
"Ou Mingde, you must not be rude, Gu Sheng said that the bidding must be a fair bidding, what are you not convinced!" Lu Damin took the initiative to help Gu Biao block the car and scolded Ou Mingde to stand up.
There were a few middle-aged and elderly craftsmen next to him who had choked Gu Biao just now, and they also thought that they had caused trouble and affected the villagers and workers in the town, so they knelt down one by one with earthy faces, slamming and pleading.
Gu Biao couldn't stand it, and sternly stated: "I mean what I say! When the time comes, the bidding will be open, there will be craftsmanship, and the products will be beautiful, of course they will be selected, and don't engage in these crooked ways! County Magistrate Lu will naturally uphold justice! You can also inquire about this point casually!"
With that, he left this place of right and wrong, and was escorted out of the copper factory by security personnel from the province. He knows that some things are reasonable, and these people who have not read books cannot understand it for a while, and only when he walks away temporarily and keeps them calm and calm, he will not be afraid of trouble and misunderstanding and retaliation.
Lu Damin hurriedly followed, and continued to ask a well-informed big man like Gu Biao to teach the farmers and mountain people around Los Angeles how to make a good life by supporting Hollywood.
They have already realized that the little knowledge in Gu Biao's mind is an amazing treasure, and it is no less than real money invested. It is better to ask people to fish than to ask people to fish.
