Chapter 263 Old Song's War

In the Internet age, especially the current era of fan economy, the publicity role a Weibo account with a huge number of fans can play is absolutely inestimable. A so-called public celebrity or big V can create huge economic benefits with hundreds of thousands of fans.

The "Taoyuan Interesting" account will be positioned in the future to focus on zoo animals and various interesting entertainment projects. Occasionally, it may also advertise other industries of Su Ming, such as future wineries, so there is no need to use certain methods like some Unscrupulous public figures publish false statements and attract attention through sensationalism.

In a way, the more influential this Weibo account will be in the future, the more conducive it will be to social harmony, people's family happiness, happy life, and full of positive energy.

This newly registered Weibo account has no fans yet. Su Ming was too lazy to post advertisements elsewhere for the time being. The Weibo account needed to be carefully managed. It could not be achieved by just posting small advertisements in a few forums or leaving comments under popular posts.

…

In a large conference room in the city government, Director Song, Wang Jianshe, and several leaders of relevant city departments have been discussing the specific plan for the zoo's restructuring in the past few days.

As the current leader of the zoo, Lao Song is of course trying his best to strive for better conditions for the zoo to facilitate its future development;

As representatives of the government, several other leaders considered the issue from the opposite perspective. The zoo used to be within the system and the government would take care of it. Now it is out of the system. Of course, the less we can take away, the better.

This is not for personal gain. The more intense the quarrel between the two parties is, the more it shows that they are both very responsible people. If there is a group of irresponsible people, everyone is good to me, and it seems that they are in harmony, but it will cause huge losses to the national property and the future of the zoo.

In the past few days, the two sides have been quarreling with each other, arguing with each other, and even resorting to arrogance. They have made stringent demands one by one, and have not given up an inch of ground, all trying to maximize the benefits from it.

Under this situation, Wang Jianshe, as a leading government cadre, cannot openly speak for the zoo.

Sometimes when the two sides are talking red-faced and reach an impasse, or the negotiation is difficult, they will temporarily adjourn the meeting to drink tea, chat, watch TV, etc., to ease the tension.

Today’s topic is about the plan to return part of the fixed assets of the zoo.

In the zoo, everything from pavilions, woods and lawns to as small as a stone bench and a lighting lamp on the roadside are all invested and constructed by the state. After the restructuring, these assets are considered to belong to the zoo, and the income generated is also on the zoo's account rather than turned over to the state.

Therefore, these assets must be converted into money and returned to the state.

Of course, this type of ‘asset’ is not a machine, it does not directly produce value, and it has been used for many years, so the discount is very low.

But the zoo is too big to hold, and the total amount adds up to a huge number.

The question now is whether to pay it in one lump sum or to pay it back year by year. If it is to be returned year by year, it should be divided into several years and whether interest should be charged and other details.

The discussion is deadlocked here.

"How is it possible to return it all at once! Old Liu, what you said is that you are deliberately watching the zoo collapse!"

Despite Dean Song's usual smile, when it came to the future development of the zoo, he refused to give in and was very difficult to speak. He slammed the table and said angrily.

Director Liu on the opposite side glared: "Old Song, what did you say? How could I deliberately watch the zoo collapse? If the zoo collapses, what good will I gain?!"

Dean Song snorted and said displeasedly: "The first year of the restructuring is the most difficult year for the zoo. It's just that you don't support us financially, but you are tearing us down and asking us to return everything at once. How can the zoo have anything?" So much money? ...Okay, okay, even if I can raise this large amount of money, even if I can borrow the money, I can return all the working capital to the government, and the zoo will not have a dime on its account, and it will be full of debts. How can you continue to run the business? Don’t you want to see the zoo collapse?”

Not to be outdone, Old Liu boasted and glared: "Why do we need to reform? It is to reduce the burden on the government, optimize resource allocation, and comply with the market economy. The fittest will survive, and those who cannot adapt will be eliminated by the market! Your zoo cannot continue to operate and will go bankrupt. , That is the problem of the zoo’s management, and other companies will naturally take over. To put it bluntly, after the restructuring, the government does not care about the life and death of your zoo, but no matter what, the original state-owned assets cannot be lost like this.”

Sitting next to Old Liu was a relatively young cadre, whose position seemed to be lower than that of Old Liu. When Old Liu was tough, he was soft. He coughed and said with a distressed look, "Director Song, You are also an old comrade. In the past years of our country's economic reform, how many precious state-owned assets have been lost in vain with just three pennies instead of two pennies. It is sad..."

"Xiao He, please stop talking to me like a bureaucracy. Is that what I meant?!" Dean Song was old and strong, and directly pushed back what this guy said.

The people present are all party members and cadres, and they are all leaders in charge of one party. Now it is a bit boring to have a meeting and discuss in private instead of in front of the media and the masses, and to speak in an official tone.

After being scolded by Lao Song, Xiao He also smiled and said nothing.

Lao Song snorted and softened his tone: "It's not that I don't understand what Xiao He said. I am also an old comrade. Of course I will not just watch the loss of state-owned assets. But everyone must also think about the purpose of our restructuring. It is right for the government to reduce its burden and leave some unnecessary baggage to the market. However, the ultimate goal is to hope that the zoo can operate well, generate tax revenue to feed back the government's finances, enrich people's lives, and prosper the market economy. This is by no means the case. Are you talking about letting the zoo close down? If it is just to shed the burden and not seek development, then there is no need to restructure. All zoos, parks, and public institutions can just close down, and there will be no need for government financial funding in the future. "

"Of course not, of course not." Wang Jianshe laughed, took a sip of tea and said, "Don't get excited, Lao Song, please speak slowly."

This restructuring meeting was originally supposed to be chaired by Vice Mayor Sun. The old man was old and in poor health and did not attend. Wang Jianshe chaired it on his behalf.

Director Song nodded, took two sips of tea, and then continued: "Old Liu, I understand your financial difficulties, and I hope you can understand us. Give the zoo a buffer for a period of time, and return it year by year, without giving less. If you pay a dime, you should calculate the interest according to the bank."

Seeing Dean Song's insistence that the conversation could not continue without retreating, Old Liu also hesitated a little, "You are right, but what if the zoo collapses? Who should I ask for the money?"

"Old Liu, what you said is just nonsense, right? Then what if I win a 100 million lottery ticket and pay back the money in the blink of an eye?"

Director Song's words are actually a bit arrogant. According to the existing probability statistics, the chance of the zoo going bankrupt after restructuring is many times higher than the chance of winning the 100 million grand prize. Lao Liu's hypothesis is completely possible, but Director Song's hypothesis is basically impossible.

When Lao Song said this, he was showing off his old face.

Although the total amount of money is the same for the one-time repayment and the yearly repayment, and interest is even required for the yearly repayment, they have absolutely different meanings for the zoo's financial pressure. The former is too stressful and can drain the zoo's finances in one fell swoop, while the latter can allow the zoo to make a smooth transition.

In Lao Song's view, this negotiation was the last thing he could do for the zoo. This is his last battle, he must fight well!

Both sides held it in their hands and refused to speak again.

Seeing that the conversation was deadlocked again, Wang Jianshe was not in a hurry and smiled: "Let's take a rest and watch TV. Then, ask the waiter to change some tea leaves."

Wang Jianshe has seen this kind of scene many times. When some large state-owned enterprises were restructured, the scene was much more heated than now. There were people throwing glasses in the conference room and pointing their noses and cursing.

The waiter came in to change the tea leaves and water, and turned on the large LCD TV screen in the conference room.

By coincidence, the picture on the screen happened to be the new pillar of Yangchuan City TV station, an outstanding young reporter, interviewing Su Ming, an outstanding employee of the zoo.

Looking at the surrounding environment, it should be on the mountain behind the zoo. The surrounding area is full of tourists.

"What is this? A fox? Why are they all dressed like villains?" Director Liu looked at the TV screen and was stunned.

Director Song said lukewarmly: "You don't care whether it's a fox or a villain, as long as it can make a profit for the zoo, that's a good thing!"

The interview sound on the TV rang in the conference room.

"Chief Su, the Fox Home at the back of the zoo has already attracted a lot of attention in less than three days since its opening. What do you think is the reason for this?"

Su Ming's current position is the 'section chief' of the zoo's special coordination department. This department was established after Su Ming came. It sounds like a spy, but it is actually the department responsible for managing all animals and all emergencies.

Su Ming smiled faintly at the camera and said: "I think this is a manifestation of social harmony. Our material life is constantly enriched. There is a harmonious relationship between people and between people and nature. People's living conditions are better. It requires To achieve better spiritual enjoyment and leisure life, the zoo can achieve certain results by following this trend. Of course, it is also inseparable from these cute broad-eared foxes.”

"Speaking of the broad-eared fox, I would like to ask a question that all tourists and TV viewers want to know."

Nangong Yan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, showed a naughty smile to the camera, and asked Su Ming: "These little foxes are very humane and can interact simply with humans. Are they specially trained by the zoo? Everyone knows that in China, There are many magical legends about foxes, and there is also a folk saying about fox fairies..."
