By extracting their desires for blind dates, I became the richest man.

the next day.

A low-key local restaurant in the city.

As soon as Chen Qiu arrived at the door, a man in his thirties came to greet him.

"Hello, Mr. Chen, I am Zhou Kai, Director Wang's secretary."

"Hello, Secretary Zhou."

Then, Zhou Kai led him to a private room.

Upon opening the door, a middle-aged man inside immediately stood up and stepped forward.

The man was around 45 years old and wearing a standard business jacket.

His expression was calm, but his eyes were bright.

"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Secretary Zhou introduced, "This is our Director Wang."

"Director Wang, hello."

Chen Qiu extended his hand.

The director of the Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism is a full-fledged division-level official, which is the highest-ranking official Chen Qiu has ever met.

In many small cities, the Bureau of Culture and Tourism can be considered a retirement home for powerful officials; coming to the Bureau of Culture and Tourism is basically a way of saying you're far removed from the core circle.

However, the environment varies from place to place. At the very least, Chen Qiu doesn't think that a director of the cultural and tourism bureau who can plan such a large-scale investment in a third-tier city is here to retire in the cultural and tourism bureau!

"Mr. Chen, you are young and promising."

Director Wang shook his hand.

"Please sit down."

The two sat down.

The dishes were ordered in advance by the secretary; they were all local home-style dishes.

After eating and exchanging pleasantries, Chen Qiu got straight to the point and took out part of the proposal she had prepared the night before.

"The preliminary plans for this cultural industry park may not be fully developed yet. Director Wang, please provide your feedback."

Director Wang smiled.

"Mr. Chen is too modest."

He opened the file and read it very carefully.

The private room was quiet, with only the soft sound of pages turning.

Director Wang picked up his teacup and took a sip.

His gaze lingered on a particular page.

His gaze grew increasingly solemn.

I'm watching it slower and slower.

Secretary Zhou stood to the side, not daring to breathe loudly.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Chen Qiu, his heart filled with curiosity.

He already knew that in addition to the two state-owned enterprises, the newly established cultural industry group also had a major individual shareholder holding 30% of the shares!

It's said that quite a bit of money was invested...

But this is a key project for the city in the past two years. Can we just put money into it and get on board?

One can imagine that the relationship behind it must be incredibly powerful!

"It seems I'll be dealing with this person quite often in the future, so I'll have to be extra careful!"

Secretary Zhou thought to himself.

At this moment, Director Wang turned another page.

His brow furrowed, then relaxed.

Gradually, his fingers began to tap lightly on the table unconsciously.

The atmosphere in the private room grew increasingly quiet.

Director Wang's mind was in turmoil.

As the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau, he knew this project all too well.

A project worth 1.1 billion yuan, a key project in the new cultural tourism industry!

The city attaches great importance to this.

He has a heavy burden on his shoulders.

During this period, he has reviewed at least a dozen proposals.

It's all garbage.

What is garbage?

It's just renovating a bunch of old factory buildings.

Paint it with colorful paint.

They hung up signs that read "Creative Base" and "Art Incubator".

Then, we attract investment.

What kind of businesses can we attract?

It's highly likely they'll be recruiting a bunch of children's painting and calligraphy training classes.

If we hire a few more half-dead "artist studios," they won't even be able to pay the rent!

Finally, set up a creative café or a creative milk tea shop, and sell a cup of sweet drink for thirty or forty yuan.

Director Wang knows this tactic all too well.

When the park opens, there will be gongs and drums, ribbon-cutting, and media coverage.

What happens when the excitement is over?

Before long, it became lifeless.

The grass is taller than a person.

The money invested has gone down the drain.

Another new "cultural wasteland" has been created in the city, largely ignored.

He gets a headache just thinking about it.

but.

The proposal in his hand...

Different!

Director Wang turned another page.

His eyes sparkled.

This proposal contains not a single empty word.

It talks about "business logic".

How did you bring this park back to life?

It perfectly connects cultural stories, modern commerce, tourism experiences, and more.

It's not about an exhibition!

It's about consumption!

How do we get tourists to come in, how do we get them to willingly spend money, how do we make them have fun, and how do we get them to share online and bring more people in?

It has built a complete, self-sustaining business loop.

"Integration and mastery!"

Only these four words remained in Director Wang's mind.

feasible!

Absolutely feasible!

How can this be considered an "immature idea"?

This is practically feeding them right up to their mouths!

Director Wang slowly closed the proposal.

He looked at Chen Qiu again.

That look in his eyes was completely different from before.

He picked up the glass of baijiu in front of him.

He stood up.

"Mr. Chen."

Chen Qiu quickly stood up as well.

"Director Wang."

"To be honest, I was so worried about this project that I didn't sleep well for a long time."

"I'm scared."

"I'm afraid of it, and it's turned into those lifeless, empty shells again."

"But after seeing your proposal today, I feel relieved."

"Mr. Chen, you are truly young and promising!"

He handed the cup to Chen Qiu.

"From now on, we'll need Mr. Chen to put in a lot of effort in managing this cultural industry park!"

"Director Wang, you flatter me. I was just doing my part."

Chen Qiu replied, and drank the wine in one gulp.

At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief.

With that statement and his status as the largest individual shareholder, his say in the cultural industry group was practically secured!

……

Qiancheng Cultural Industry Group!

The employees who received the notification are hurriedly organizing the documents.

"Suddenly they're asking us to find all the recent construction companies' qualification documents... and Baldy Ma just threw them away carelessly!"

A girl, sweating profusely from the search, complained.

"Stop talking, Manager Ma is here!"

Beside her, another pretty girl with a ponytail quickly nudged her waist.

The two women immediately shut up.

The bald manager, Mr. Ma, strode over, his forehead covered in a fine sheen of sweat.

"Is everything organized?"

"Manager Ma, most of them are here..."

As soon as the pretty young woman finished speaking, Manager Ma's eyes widened suddenly, and he angrily cursed.

"most?"

"It's been over ten minutes, and you still haven't found everything?!"

"If you can't even do this right, go back to school!"

"You have ten more minutes to finish tidying up the rest and bring it to the conference room!"

After spitting, Manager Ma picked up the thick stack of documents on the table and quickly left the office.

The other girl was surprised to see this.

"Yiyi, did that bald-headed Ma not eat today? He left after only a few curses?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yi rolled her eyes at her classmate Xu Yujie, speechless.

"You're not happy about not getting a few scoldings, are you?"

A male colleague in his thirties spoke up from the side.

"He doesn't have time to yell at us now!"

"I heard that Director Wang is coming to inspect this afternoon, and our group's major individual shareholder will also be making an appearance!"

The two girls were quite surprised to hear this.

"Isn't this a state-owned enterprise?"

"Are there also individual major shareholders?"

The male colleague then said mysteriously.

"So, this person must be a legendary figure with immense connections!"

"If he were to be permanently stationed at the group... I'm afraid the current middle and upper management would be quite nervous!"
