In late August, Lu Cheng returned to Quancheng with his family.
He went to the acupuncture department of the hospital to meet his teacher Huo Mingan and his senior sister Gong Xingmian.
Although Huo Mingan is over 60 years old, for an acupuncturist, if you work for as long as you want, you can re-employ even if you retire.
Gong Xingmian graduated with a Ph.D. and worked for two years before becoming a famous acupuncturist, specializing in treating mental illnesses.
According to what they said privately, in recent years, more and more patients have been haunted by "ghosts", and the world doesn't know what's going on? The sky is clear and the sun is bright, how can there be ghosts and ghosts?
Lu Cheng explained to them: "This is because of the revival of spiritual energy. Spiritual energy is divided into two categories: yin and yang. Yin energy makes people depressed, and yang energy makes people crazy. Only the balance of yin and yang can maintain health. The recovery of spiritual energy intensifies the deviation of yin and yang. If you want to It’s not easy to keep the yin and yang in balance.”
Gong Xingmian asked in a low voice: "Junior brother, do you think there are any ghosts?"
Lu Cheng said: "The land of China is protected. For example, Daishan is protected by the Qing Emperor, and Qianfo Mountain is protected by the Buddhas. Although there are many places where Yin Qi accumulates, it is not easy to become a wise ghost."
He didn't say whether there was a ghost or not. Even if there wasn't one for now, there might be one in time.
Huo Mingan asked: "Lu Cheng, with your attainments and reputation, you can go back to school and give lectures. It will definitely be very popular."
Lu Cheng smiled and said, "I won't go."
With his ranking in the wealth rankings, it is certain that he will be popular when he appears in front of young students. However, are they listening to the lecture or watching the rich man? Listening to lectures is false, but treating rich people like monkeys is true.
Afterwards, Gong Xingmian said: "Junior brother, do you know? Yuanyuan is married!"
Lu Cheng was a little surprised: "Really? Why didn't you notify me? I have to give her a big red envelope!"
"It's not too late for you to give it now!"
"No problem! Let's get together?"
"I'll make an appointment! I'll tell you after I confirm the time!"
"Okay, my time is free."
In the blink of an eye, Saturday morning came, and everyone gathered at Lu Cheng's villa in Qingquan Villa.
All the people who came were young people, Huo Mingan and his wife did not go.
Huo Yuanyuan and her husband Li Quansheng; Gong Xingmian and her husband and children; Wuxianqin teacher Ding Lianqiu and her husband; and Zhang Shuowen, Luo Yingjing, Yao Jing, etc.
Li Quansheng is a 30-year-old native of Quancheng. He is a music producer and composer of "Lu Xing Film and Television" and is based in "Quancheng Film and Television City".
Lu Cheng gave Huo Yuanyuan a big red envelope, which contained a bank card. He didn't mention how much it cost.
Because Huo Yuanyuan was Huo Mingan's only daughter, and Huo Mingan was Lu Cheng's master. Lu Cheng had never given any heavy gifts to his master, so he transferred his affection to his daughter.
Everyone who comes today has a gift, a jade bracelet for each lady, and a white jade waistband with a tiger head for each gentleman.
These things were all brought from the "Minghu Jade Workshop". Although they could be sold for a lot of money outside, they were nothing to Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng asked Li Quansheng, "I heard that you used to work in Shangjing?"
Li Quansheng, who was handsome and handsome, replied: "Well, I worked in Huayi for a few years. My parents refused to go to Beijing, so I came back."
"What is the scale of Luxing Film and Television?"
"It's relatively small. It's mainly filmed in the local film and television city, and the content is related to the story of Qilu Dadi."
“In recent years, there haven’t been many good local films.”
"Firstly, there is no good script, and secondly, there is a lack of investment. Investment relies on the herd effect, just focus on the leader, so a lot of investment has been attracted by Hengdian and Magic City."
"I am also planning to build a film and television base by Qinghai Lake. When it is completed, I wonder if any film and television companies will be willing to go there."
"Qinghai is too far from the mainland! And I heard that Qinghai Lake is a saltwater lake. To be honest, I'm not very optimistic about it."
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "Qinghai Lake is an inland lake. In recent years, due to the melting of snow mountains and increased rainfall, the lake surface has expanded a lot, and the lake water should become a little bluer. If I use the water-receiving charm to take away some lake water every year, there will be new rainfall to replenish it, and the lake water will grow over time. It will gradually fade away. The problem is that doing so will cause a lot of controversy. Even if I do it, I can’t let others know about it.”
He asked Li Quansheng: "Does Luxing Film and Television need investment? I still have some spare money, and I can use 2 billion to invest in the production of film and television works."
Li Quansheng said with a smile: "That's naturally a good thing. 2 billion can make several movies, but investments can be won or lost. Maybe in the end, not only will you not make any money, but you may also lose money."
Lu Cheng smiled and said: "I understand. If you don't say anything else, just look at the stock prices of several listed film and television companies and you will know their operating conditions. I heard that in the past few years, the Wang brothers suffered heavy losses and had to sell out in order to raise funds. Collection of calligraphy and painting.”
"There are so many tricks here. A small actor dares to pay hundreds of millions in remuneration..."
Lu Cheng doesn't care about profits and losses. He wants to enter the film and television industry. He is slightly familiar with this industry, which will be beneficial to the future operation of the "Kunlun Myth Film and Television Base".
Regardless of whether he is using a girl to sell dog meat, after all, he invested 20 billion in Yaowu Rou. He can't let the film and television base idle, right? If no one goes there, and a large number of houses and palaces stand there, turned into ruins by wind and rain, he will feel bad living on the top of the mountain!
Waste of natural resources and waste of resources will be punished by thunder!
After this gathering, Lu Cheng contacted the manager Huang Jimian and chairman Jin Xiheng of "Luxing Film and Television" through Li Quansheng and Huo Yuanyuan. Lin Quan, who was responsible for equity investment, came forward. After some negotiations, he invested 1.53 billion and won " Luxing Film and Television” 49% equity. "Lu Xing Film and Television" is not a listed company. As the representative of the capital, Jin Xiheng was unwilling to lose controlling rights, so he only gave up 49% of the shares.
Lu Cheng didn't care about this. He had a handful of spare money and didn't want to let it sit in his account. Only when funds are put into operation can they contribute to national prosperity. If every capitalist puts his money in the bank and buys it into a house and hoards it, what is the difference between it and the late Ming Dynasty dignitaries hiding their money in cellars?
At that time in the Ming Dynasty, corrupt officials had no idea of transferring huge amounts of stolen money overseas and depositing it in Swiss banks. Although there are banks and banks in China, depositing millions of taels of silver into bank accounts really attracts people's attention. Therefore, in addition to using their wealth for extravagant squandering, corrupt officials usually hoard it at home in order to enjoy it for generations to come.
In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, corrupt officials emerged one after another. When Yan Song and Yan Shifan's father and son's homes were ransacked, 2.01 million taels of silver were confiscated.
During the Zhengde Dynasty, the eunuch Liu Jin was confiscated and his property was confiscated, and "2.5 million taels of gold and 50 million taels of silver" were confiscated; when another eunuch Qian Ning was confiscated, "more than 100,000 taels of gold and three thousand boxes of platinum" were confiscated. When the powerful official Jiang Bin died, he copied out "seventy cabinets of gold and two thousand three hundred cabinets of platinum."
When the Dashun army invaded the capital, the total amount of silver found in the official residences of the Ming Dynasty was as high as 60 to 70 million taels. Including the hoards in other places, it is estimated that there were as many as 250 million taels of silver in folk hoards in the late Ming Dynasty.
This large amount of silver, measured in hundreds of millions of taels, is usually quietly hiding in the cellars of corrupt officials and wealthy people. At that time, the total silver stock of the entire Ming Dynasty—including the silver accumulated from the Tang, Song, and Yuan dynasties, the silver produced in the Ming Dynasty, and the silver flowing in from overseas—added up to about 750 million taels. In other words, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, almost 33% of the silver was hoarded by people and withdrawn from circulation. The result of this was severe deflation in the economy at the end of the Ming Dynasty. In the parlance of the people at the time, it was called "the money has been exhausted." What's the final result? The Ming Dynasty perished.
