Chapter 256: Huayu Cake King
"Xu Yang, your brother has already arrived in the county seat, why are you still here? He didn't arrange for someone to come and pick you up to meet the world? ”
"Yes, Xu Yang, I heard that those leaders in the county are personally entertaining your brother for dinner today, if this is entrusted to you at the dinner table, you can still do something in the county."
In the small supermarket and chess room in Xujia Village, Xu Chuan's cousin Xu Yang had just walked in to buy cigarettes. I heard a few fellow villagers playing mahjong with cigarettes in their mouths, and they were talking strange things to him.
After hearing these words, Xu Yang glanced at them, did not speak, but silently took out his mobile phone to scan the code and pay.
It was December 25, six days before the 31st of Chinese New Year's Eve. And Xu Chuan's concert will start three days later, that is, at 7 pm on the 28th, in the newly renovated gymnasium in his hometown.
Should I say it or not, for this county town that has not yet been lifted out of poverty in Lanxing, the last time there was such a large-scale concert was in 09, and there would be a program similar to "Happy China Tour".
It's 2019 now, and in the past ten years, although there have been some platter performances in the middle, the scale is always a little small, and the star artists who come are the highest second-tier.
Xu Chuan is different, he is now a first-line top performer, and there is no one more popular than him in the younger generation. The most important thing is that this is his hometown, and his return to perform means something different to people here.
In addition, Xu Chuan's return this time is not the same as the National Day return to promote the movie, the last time he came suddenly, the field was also small, and it did not cause much impact.
The concert itinerary was announced long in advance, which gave everyone a time and space to discuss.
In this case, many people's talking points and concerns naturally put on Xu Chuan's concert.
Especially the people in Xujia Village, it is even more inseparable from this topic, and when they go out to brag, they must bring "Xu Chuan", and they open their mouths to "When Xu Chuan was young, I ...... with him"
At this time, Xu Chuan, who was personally entertained by the county leaders in the mouths of those who played cards, was indeed eating with the county leadership team.
It stands to reason that he himself does not have to come back three days in advance for the concert.
The reason why it is so long in advance is mainly that some things really have to be talked about in person.
"Qi Shuji, it's not that I'm a person who forgets my roots, and it's not that I'm unwilling to make more contributions to my hometown, but it's mainly that I can't do this thing of endorsing agricultural and sideline products in my hometown.
But don't worry, this time I brought the person in charge of our Shuangmuchuan supply chain and the person in charge of our e-commerce to come, they have communicated with you many times before, and some technical things are ready.
Again, if you can start a live broadcast to bring goods to your hometown in person, the effect will be much better than mine. After Xu Chuan drank a glass of wine, he said happily to the middle-aged man opposite.
The middle-aged man on the opposite side, known as Qi Shuji, heard this, and his first reaction was to wave his hand and shake his head.
The man next to him behaved differently, and seemed to want to talk to Xu Chuan about it in depth. This man's surname is Wu, his name is Wu Shuqiang, and he is the local county magistrate.
Speaking of which, if ordinary people are concerned about "entertainment and talk", the things that the county leaders consider and discuss are much more practical.
They unanimously felt that Xu Chuan's return to the concert was a good opportunity to drive the economic development of the county.
Therefore, from the moment Xu Chuan decided to hold a concert in his hometown and reported to the relevant departments of the county government for approval. The county leadership team held a meeting directly for a day or two, and has been communicating with the people in Xu Chuan's team since then.
First, I wondered if I could let Xu Chuan endorse the agricultural and sideline products in his hometown at the concert, and even bring the goods directly. Second, let's see if we can promote the local tourism industry.
Of course, it would be better if Xu Chuan could invest something in the local area, after all, it is rumored that Xu Chuan is worth a lot of money, and it would be perfect if he invested 120 million to drive his parents and fellow villagers to get rich.
For this kind of thing, Xu Chuan naturally expected it, and he was ready to refuse.
The reason for refusal is not that he does not want to contribute to his hometown, but because some contributions are really not easy to do.
In recent years, there have been many celebrities and artists from small cities, but it is difficult to see any artists who strongly recommend their hometowns, let alone the products of specific companies in their hometowns.
Is it because everyone forgot their roots because they got rich?
Not really.
Mainly because it's uncontrollable, you have no idea how many profiteers there will be in it. If you really want to endorse, there will be some adverse events at that time, but it will all be counted on you as an artist.
You can't get a point for them to make money, and they pit people on your back, who can do this?
Therefore, in fact, Xu Chuan's best choice is to avoid talking about it, throw some things directly to his staff, and then come over on the day of the concert and leave after the concert.
This saves you a lot of trouble.
Sometimes, however, there are always all sorts of things that have to be faced.
Xu Chuan really couldn't avoid them, because there was something he had to ask the county leaders to do for him.
What's going on?
That is to help control the prices of hotels, restaurants and transportation in the county during his concert.
This Xu Chuan's concert will probably come to more than 12,000 audiences. Most of the twelve thousand came from other places.
In other words, it is estimated that eight or nine thousand people will have to stay here for at least one night.
The county seat is no better than any other first-tier city or provincial capital, and in the first-tier city or provincial capital, eight or nine thousand people will not make any splash in the past.
But here in the county, there are suddenly eight or nine thousand more people in food, housing and transportation at one time, which is enough to make this county town lively. With Xu Chuan's understanding of the people in his hometown, he saw that the price of outsiders could rise.
Xu Chuan naturally doesn't want his fans to be wronged. I don't want to go back to my hometown to hold a concert, and then the reputation of my hometown will become shit. I don't want to be burdened with some inexplicable negative public opinion.
Therefore, he had to think of an attractive way to convince the county leadership to curb this price increase.
After thinking about it, Xu Chuan came up with the name of a city in his mind.
That name is "Zibo".
In fact, everyone knows the inner core of the city's popularity, and if you have done a detailed analysis, you will understand it more profoundly.
And Xu Chuan happens to be a player who has studied a wave in depth and has also experienced it once.
As a result, Xu Chuan communicated with the secretary named Qi Huqing in front of him and the county magistrate Wu Shuqiang many times. The content of the communication is to break up the "Zibo model" and tell them several times.
Not only did he talk about the plan, but he also provided a team to help them do publicity support, that is, Shuangmuchuan, which itself has cooperation with cultural tourism in various places, and has rich experience in this area.
Of course, Xu Chuan naturally didn't expect this side to do the same as Zibo.
In addition to the efforts of the locals, there are also objective social factors in the success of Zibo.
Moreover, Xu Chuan's hometown and Zibo are not a region of the same size, they are cities.
However, if they can implement it in place as Xu Chuan said, the tourism industry will definitely achieve some development.
After all, there is the largest freshwater lake in China, and there are still some interesting and beautiful places. For example, it is the dry season of winter, and large areas of grassland grow in the dry areas. It has become a 4A scenic spot on the earth.
As for the live broadcast of county officials, no one has done it in Lanxing now, but there are similar cases on the earth, and the results are not bad.
It was precisely because of this that Xu Chuan dared to give this suggestion to the secretary named Qi Huqing in front of him. However, Qi Huqing doesn't seem to have the courage.
I saw that after he heard Xu Chuan propose to let him bring the goods again, he excused himself and said: "This matter, no one has done this, I'm afraid the impact will not be good." And, because I'm old, I really don't understand this. ”
Hearing this, Xu Chuan was really a little helpless. You don't dare to do such a good thing that makes the boss notice you, you really don't have the life to be promoted.
So, Xu Chuan couldn't help but persuade again: "Qi Shuji, some leaders of Yunnan Province Cultural Tourism who cooperate with us have already recorded I don't know how many shakers, and it's really nothing to bring goods."
We are dedicated to helping local farmers expand their sales channels, and we don't have to care about some gossip. ”
The reason why Xu Chuan wanted to persuade Qi Huqing was, on the one hand, to make some contributions to his hometown.
The second aspect is also to show his value in another field, which is of great benefit to his personal development and the development of his company Shuangmuchuan.
However, what he said was so straightforward, but Qi Huqing was still hesitating.
Seeing him like this, Xu Chuan changed the topic and said, "But this thing is not in a hurry, you can think about it again." There is an urgent matter that may need to be taken seriously. ”
"What do you mean?" Qi Huqing wondered.
"In the tourism development plan we communicated with before, I talked to a few of you, and it seems that there is a bit of a problem with the explanation that the price of hotels, restaurants, operations and traffic is not allowed to increase in disorder."
"This document was issued half a month in advance, and all hotels, restaurants, and operating vehicles in the county have received notices, I don't know what the problem you are talking about." Wu Shuqiang said.
Hearing this, Xu Chuan couldn't help but take a deep breath, then turned his head to Cai Meng next to him and said, "Assistant Cai, what is the price of the hotel room from No. 27 to No. 29?" ””
"I don't know the price of the store, if you book online, it has risen at least three times as much as before, and some of the rooms have more than 100 before, and the house price on the 27th and 28th is more than 500, an increase of nearly five times." Cai Meng said when he heard this.
As soon as these words came out, Qi Huqing's face couldn't help but show a trace of embarrassment. At the same time, he turned his head directly to look at a chubby middle-aged man next to him.
This middle-aged man is Deputy County Magistrate Liu, who is in charge of this area, and he is his person.
As soon as he saw the head leader looking at him, he said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, the supply and demand relationship in this market is here, and there are some things that we can't force across the board."
Besides, this is not a phenomenon that is unique to us, it is the same all over the country. You said that when you go back to your hometown to hold a concert, it is a good time to bring business to your hometown parents.
At this moment, we don't allow people to make money, which is really a bit too much, don't you say? If you really want to use any coercive means, don't turn good things into bad things and make you bear some unnecessary infamy. ”
Should I say it or not, the words of Deputy County Magistrate Liu are not completely nonsense.
If you don't let those hotels and restaurants raise prices to make money, some people will definitely scold Xu Chuan for only eating meat for himself and not letting them drink soup.
What kind of meat does Xu Chuan eat? Concert tickets, it's not much more expensive than a hotel.
But these words will still make Xu Chuan happy, only to see him speak: "Deputy County Magistrate Liu, what you just said doesn't make much sense. Could it be that they won't be able to make money if they don't make money at the original price? Do you have to go up three or four times to make money?
If I don't come to my hometown for this concert, will they be able to earn a penny from my fans, and will they be able to fill up those rooms? Just scolding me, they can open their mouths too! ”
After speaking, without waiting for Deputy County Magistrate Liu to reply, Xu Chuan said to Qi Huqing and Wu Shuqiang: "Two leaders, I am not alarmist. Usually, if there are any bad businesses on our side, no one may pay attention to them.
But if the fans who came to watch the concert this time were slaughtered, they complained twice. My black fans can get this thing in half a day, and netizens all over the country know about it.
The most important thing is that we have issued a clear text saying that the price cannot be raised, and you said that after this matter is turned out, what will the city think? What should the province think? ”
As soon as these words came out, the county leadership team, who had not taken it too seriously, changed their faces at that time.
What do you think?
What else can you see?
No matter how you look at it, the ability of your county leadership team is not good, and when you invent a literary business, can you still implement other things in place in the future?
My mother, it affects my career.
I have been thinking about how much benefit Xu Chuan's fame can bring.
Now that I was reminded like this, everyone suddenly reacted. The attention that Xu Chuan's fame has brought is completely a double-edged sword. Playing well can drive local development, and playing badly is making a fool of yourself in front of the people of the whole country.
Thinking of this, Qi Huqing and Wu Shuqiang looked at the deputy county magistrate Liu who defended the merchant just now.
At this time, Deputy County Magistrate Liu broke out in a cold sweat, he really didn't expect this matter to be so serious.
So, he hurriedly said: "Qi Shuji, don't worry, I will definitely put this matter in place." ”
"Lao Liu, this is related to the future upgrading of the county's tourism industry and the development of poverty alleviation, and the burden on you is not light. Also, the market service hotline is the top priority.
You need to give visitors a quick way to report the situation, and don't get everything on the Internet. Wu Shuqiang took the opportunity to put pressure on him at this time.
Looking at the several people with different performances, Xu Chuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, sometimes, the power struggle is reflected in all aspects.
However, this has nothing to do with him. What he has to do is not to burden himself with unnecessary negative public opinion.
Therefore, after solving this matter, Xu Chuan took the initiative to chat about other things to ease the atmosphere.
After a while, Wu Shuqiang suddenly spoke: "Mr. Xu, can you teach us the live broadcast you just said?" ”
As soon as he heard this, the corners of Xu Chuan's mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile.
Wu Shuqiang is much younger than Qi Huqing, Qi Huqing seeks stability, and Wu Shuqiang seeks to be motivated.
Xu Chuan is the "King of Huayu Cakes" in Bai Baiyu's mouth. A few days ago, I drew an unknown number of Zibo model cakes for these two, and new media development cakes.
It seems that Wu Shuqiang's desire to eat bread is relatively strong.
It's okay, anyway, this matter is Shuangkikawa's business scope. I came back to the concert by myself and did it by the way.
