Chapter 477: Disgusting [2]
The new town hall had a huge meeting room, to which the merchants who had invested in the city of Otis had been invited by Doolin, and those who had not been able to make it were also delegates. Some of them were serious businessmen, and many more were not engaged in any legitimate business. But these people are now dressed in expensive formal suits and sitting in conference rooms talking like successful people.
This may be the reason why they are in awe of Doolin, needless to say, the fear is legendary in itself, and admiration is the benefit that Dorins bring to them. The current city of Otis and the city of Otis half a year ago are completely two cities. The dilapidated state of the past has long been covered by newly built high-rise buildings, and there are hardly any old buildings in the middle of the city, which is a brand new city, a city of miracles.
Their investment here has not yet entered the operation, and the investment has been recouped and increased exponentially - land prices, house prices.
So they were in awe of Doolin, in awe of the speed at which he made money, in awe of his ruthless methods.
When the time pointed to two o'clock, the whole room fell silent, and Durin told them that the meeting would start at two o'clock, but it was already two o'clock, and Durin was not seen. They didn't have the slightest thought of getting up to find Durin, they all closed their mouths and sat quietly. Some people who don't understand it see that others are serious and close their mouths, and they can only keep their mouths shut.
It was almost ten minutes before Durin pushed the door in, apologizing for his tardiness and greeting everyone. Just now he answered a temporary phone call and arranged a little thing, so he was late.
"I'm bringing you here today because our seven casinos have been completed, and by a month at the latest, the city will be welcoming countless travelers who will leave the same amount of money here and take away the fun. And this is what we have to do, and we must do it well!", Durin looked at the investors on his right, these are the largest gang leaders on the Namilinders side, "First, I will not allow anything to harm tourists in this city, including cheating, kidnapping, extortion, theft...... As long as you need to think about whether this thing hurts the tourists, then it must not be allowed. ”
"The second thing is that I will distribute the equity of the seven casinos according to the proportion of your investment in Otis City, and the total shareholding of all of you here cannot exceed five percent, and there is no restriction on buying and selling, but you must notify me before buying and selling so that I know what you want to buy and who you are selling to. You'll have to pay for the cost of building the casino, and you won't have to spend anything else. ”
As soon as Du Lin's words fell, some people showed remorse, and they could even say hate. What they hate is not Dulin but themselves, if they had invested a little more money in the first place, maybe they would have gotten the upper limit, it would be five percent, it would be a no-capital deal! The devil knows that Doolin would actually use this way to distribute the power of the casino, and the reason why some people did not invest as much as others did was because they needed to leave more money to compete for the equity of the casino.
But they miscalculated, Durin did not dispose of this part of the equity through auction as before, which made their plan fail, and now the only thing they hope for is that the amount of investment from others will not be too different from their own investment, only in this way can they get more equity.
"Thirdly, I want all of you to mobilize all your networks and connections and start doing your best to promote the city of Otis in November, including all the projects it has here. We need to let the Empire know that this is Heaven, the Paradise of the Mortal World!"
"For this, I need you to pay an extra sum of money to ......", when people heard Dulin say this, they were stunned for a moment, they thought that Dulin was going to start sucking blood, but they didn't expect Durin's next sentence, which made them a little unable to believe their perception of Durin, "Because the east-west railway is being built, I need you to buy a special car to pick up passengers who arrive near Otis City for free." ”
"Not only within the city, but also in the surrounding areas, there must be buses to solicit customers, and the imperial capital also needs someone to publicize it, in a word, I want the whole empire to know that the city of Otis is open to the public, and it hardly costs much money to come here to see. ”
After a few requests from Durin, some people suddenly realized that they were really going to get rich.
There is no doubt that they have witnessed the growth of Otis City, and they also know what it holds, as long as the people with money in their pockets come here, they will never leave without spending all the money on them.
Du Lin took a sip of sour fruit water from his teacup and continued, "One last thing, I will set up a business group in Otis City, if you are interested, you can add it. ”
The merchant group is also a countermeasure that Dulin and Maggs came up with after discussion, not to fight against the forces of capital, but to fight against the Chamber of Commerce. At present, the power and power of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce are too great, and it is a very dangerous behavior for such an unofficial organization to enforce power that should be carried out by the government. Many people may think that it is far better for some power to be held by the Chamber of Commerce than to be done by the official, which is a misunderstanding.
The official has strict norms and standards, although it cannot be said that there will never be favoritism, but it is definitely much less than the dirty things in the general chamber of commerce. There are old parties and some people who want to step on others to climb up, and the price of favoritism is too great.
It's different in the Chamber of Commerce, as long as you can afford to spend the money and have enough connections, it's too simple to want to do something. Power in the absence of an effective oversight mechanism will not bring hope, but only destruction.
So Doolin thought of a way, differentiation.
With the regional nature of the business group to reduce the authority of the chamber of commerce, coupled with the cooperation of the city hall and the tilt of the policy, as long as the business of the region has no problem with their brains, they will join the business group. The merchant group accepts the guidance of the imperial government, and is obliged to contribute to the revival of the empire, and will also receive official recognition and convenience.
For example, when members of the business group and members of the Chamber of Commerce compete for a certain piece of land, the members of the business group can definitely get benefits.
This kind of policy tilt is especially attractive to those small and medium-sized businessmen, once these small and medium-sized businessmen are accustomed to the atmosphere of the business group and accept the official leadership, under the policy tilt they can easily catch up with the big businessmen who are not members of the business group. Under the siege and interception, the chamber of commerce will soon be eaten away and swallowed up by the merchant group bit by bit.
When the Chamber of Commerce is a thing of the past, it will be the day when the Ministry of Commerce is established.
The meeting lasted until the evening with the requests and suggestions made by Doolin and everyone left with a smile of satisfaction and excitement, and the meeting might make a big difference for them.
In the afternoon of this day, another incident occurred.
After Mark's personal telephone invitation, more than 70 percent of the newspaper directors in the Imperial Newspaper field rushed to the Imperial Capital, and they wanted to gather together to discuss the establishment of a newspaper alliance. They also knew that now was the best time to bring down the George family, but not many people put this idea into action. It is not wrong that the George family is the "cancer" of the newspaper industry, but it is also the biggest "firewall" of the newspaper industry.
It is precisely because of the existence of the George family that some small and micro newspapers can survive, and these newspapers are particularly sensitive to changes in the market. Once the George family falls and is finished, then a murderous market competition will follow, and small and micro newspapers will be swallowed up by small and medium-sized newspapers, and small and medium-sized newspapers will be swallowed up by large newspapers. Many people lose their newspapers and jobs, and they resent the George family's monopoly on the newspaper industry, but they also reap the real benefits.
Without the George family, they wouldn't have gotten the latest news from all over the empire and even other countries every day.
Without the George family, the chaotic and fierce competition in the market would have caused many people to lose their jobs and businesses.
If it weren't for the George family, there wouldn't be rules that everyone follows.
In this way, in fact, the existence of the George family is a good thing for the newspaper office of the empire.
Just as Marco arrived to discuss the formation of a newspaper alliance, a group of police officers and agents suddenly burst into the venue and forcibly dispersed all the attendees.
Mark angrily walked up to the chief of the Imperial Capital Police and demanded that he explain the matter.
Although the George family seems to be going downhill recently, it is still not something that the police chief can offend, the police chief had to laugh with him, and patiently explained to Mark: "Someone called the police, saying that there are explosives hidden here, and considering the safety of everyone's lives, the director of the police investigation department personally ordered us to evacuate everyone in this building, and clean up every inch of where explosives may be present to ensure the safety of everyone's lives and property." ”
This truth is not just as simple as talking about the past, Mark was silent for a while at the end, and he had to say thank you. People think about their life safety, and if they have to blame each other for this, then obviously Mark doesn't even have the most basic ability to distinguish between right and wrong.
What had been a meeting of great significance to Mark turned into a farce, and he asked the newspaper directors to arrange their afternoon trips while contacting other venues to try to get the meeting off tomorrow.
The sooner this newspaper alliance was formed, the sooner he would be able to stabilize the situation.
But somehow, he had a bad feeling in his heart, as if someone was unwilling to let him form this newspaper alliance. His suspicion was also proved in the evening, and after layers of inspection, the detectives and police officers of the General Directorate of Police Investigation did not find any explosives, and someone reported a false alarm!
