Despite being incredibly wealthy, I want to be a prosecutor.

Vientiane Films is located in a very bustling commercial area of ​​Bangkok.

Therefore, although it has a lot of debt and the films and television series it has produced in the past two years have basically lost money, the land it owns makes it worthwhile.

The eight-story office building was somewhat old. Zhou Hong only drove around in Jin Shazai's ordinary car, and even the lower-level employees didn't know that the big boss had arrived.

From the Northwest back to the East China Sea, and then from the East China Sea directly to Bangkok, Zhou Hong took the opportunity to check on the assets that had long been transferred to his name.

Besides Vientiane Property, I'm also planning to fly to Durian Island for a visit.

Durian Island, a 10-minute boat ride from Phuket, is named for its durian-like shape. Covering an area of ​​11 square kilometers, it was being developed into a resort. However, after only completing the ferry terminal and the ultra-luxury villas intended as the "Presidential Estate No. 1," the funding chain broke, banks began withdrawing loans, and subsequent construction was completely paralyzed.

In one of the three major deals of the day, Zhou Hong acquired the private island, including the unfinished resort project, for $130 million.

As for whether to continue the project or simply use it as an island for private vacations, that remains to be studied.

Just as I was pondering the matter of Durian Island, a sudden "ding" sounded from the depths of my soul.

"Congratulations, host, you have activated your Director's Awakening skill!"

"Ding! Free trial of a god-tier card issued!"

Hmm? For each new skill, the God-tier card itself has the benefit of one free trial.

Looking at the card slot, three glittering gold cards were slowly emerging.

"Script Generation Card (God-tier Card): Active, generates scripts quickly from your thoughts. Cooldown: 999 hours (this card disappears after three activations)."

"Editing Card (God-tier Card): Active, WYSIWYG, quickly completes the final edit. Cooldown: 999 hours (this card disappears after being activated three times)"

"Instant Playback (God-tier Card): Active, what you think is what you get, instant playback. Cooldown: 999 hours (this card disappears after being activated three times)"

After pondering for a while, Zhou Hong could roughly guess the purpose of the three divine cards.

Script cards, as the name suggests, are whatever you think of; they might automatically generate incredibly detailed scripts just by recalling movies and TV shows twenty years from now.

Needless to say, editing cards belong to post-production. The editing done by the system is bound to be the effect of super AI, which feels like it can best be used in sci-fi blockbusters.

As for "instant release," it doesn't even seem to exist in this world; it's obviously just another example of the system adjusting the timeline.

Moreover, these three cards can be combined to create a series of powerful skills.

Just like getting an introduction to golf, taking a trip around one's own film company can provide an introduction to directing skills.

Zhou Hong pondered it for a moment and did not forget it.

After a leisurely tour of his private island, Zhou Hong flew to Chiang Rai to meet his teacher and his wife. After a warm reunion, he returned to Papua New Guinea in Laos.

……

"Okay, I was gone for two weeks, and the charity did a lot of work!"

In the study of Villa No. 1 at the resort, Zhou Hong looked at the thick stack of documents and smiled slightly.

Director Wan Sai could only manage a wry smile and a soft sigh.

During this period, Dalaven organized three charity events, benefiting three villages.

Nowadays, the village chiefs in the surrounding villages have all gone mad. It is said that quite a few of them are secretly colluding with Dalawen, hoping that the next village to receive "warmth" will be their own.

In fact, the financial director, Fu Niang, did not sign off on the disbursement of funds for these three charity events.

Darravin raised funds himself, and issued many IOUs. The charity's current external debt has reached 7 million kip, which is about $7.

$7 is nothing to Zhou Hong, but it's a huge sum for a bureau in a county in Laos.

"Daraven, you're quite willing to spend money."

Hearing Zhou Hong's words, Director Wan Sai sighed and shook his head. "Chairman Hong, I've spoken with him, but as you know, he doesn't take me seriously at all."

Before being recommended to the charity company, Dalawen was the driver of Insi Sangmei, the deputy senior official of Chobpo Province and the county head of Hoi Tse County, the provincial capital.

Deputy Senior Official Mei was a key figure in the reformist faction and was stationed at the forefront of the reform movement.

It is clear that Vice-Governor Mei is trying to control these funds in this way.

"I must have mastered the Wedding Dress Divine Skill!" Zhou Hong chuckled again.

Director Wan Sai was also very frustrated, because the funds were all brought in by him, but now they had been taken away directly by the higher-ups.

"They don't even treat me like a human being," Zhou Hong said, pursing his lips.

It's obvious that they think you have something to gain. Whether you want to gain benefits locally or not, you still can't get around them.

"Well then, I need to do something too." Zhou Hong looked at Director Wan Sai: "I registered an investment company called First Friendship, I told you about it, right?"

Director Wan Sai nodded.

"I'm planning to invest in this company to develop a new type of collective farm. What do you think?"

Wan Sai looked at Zhou Hong with a wry smile, as if to say, "Are you crazy? Still going to surrender? You won't turn back until you hit a brick wall?"

"Could I speak with Director Ximing? I'm planning to invest around ten million US dollars in this new type of farm."

Wan Sai was stunned, looking at Zhou Hong in disbelief: "Ten million US dollars?!"

Zhou Hong nodded: "Yes."

"I'll make a call!" Without saying another word, Wan Sai immediately took out his phone.

……

Khao Pho Province in Laos is divided into 5 districts, with the provincial capital, Hoi Tse District (Hong Kong), being the main population center.

Another densely populated area is Donghua County, where the Golden Triangle Economic Zone is located.

The main population is in Donghua County and the emerging Golden Triangle Economic Zone centered on the silver kapok tree.

However, its status as a special economic zone has not yet been clearly defined, and its administrative functions are currently performed by the Donghua County administrative agency.

For example, the director of the Labor and Social Security Bureau of Wansai in the Golden Triangle Economic Zone is also the director of the Labor and Social Security Bureau of Donggua County.

It's just one team with two different names.

The distance from Yinmian Town to Donggua County is more than 30 kilometers, and the road is extremely difficult to travel.

Throughout Laos, only the county towns that serve as provincial capitals are connected by roads that can be called highways.

The town of Silver Cotton is still in its early stages of development. The main tourist attractions of the resorts do not primarily attract locals, but rather international tourists who enter from the Xiang River region. In addition, there are gradually more tourists from southern Yunnan, China, who are also entering the Golden Triangle region for tourism.

In short, its development is unrelated to Laos. The road between the Silver Cotton Tree and Dongwa County has not been repaired and is a bumpy dirt road with a stream in the middle.

The population of Donghua County is only about 10,000. The tallest building is three stories high, which is the county government. The rest are low wooden houses and small wooden buildings. There is nothing that can be done about it. Even though it is the capital of Laos, it is only the size of a county town on the mainland now. In a few years, it will be even less impressive than most county towns on the mainland.

The only advantage is that Donggua County has a very high green coverage rate; the entire county seems to be surrounded by lush green trees.

In the office of the Minister of the Donggua County Armed Forces Command (Public Security Bureau), opposite Zhou Hong sat a beautiful female officer in a green police uniform, exuding authority; she was none other than Director Ximing.

Even when Zhou Hong mentioned investing tens of millions of US dollars to create a model collective farm, Director Ximing remained calm and composed.

"Contracting a farm, that's a problem now?" Zhou Hong keenly noticed the meaning behind her words.

"I won't lie to you, there are different opinions at the higher levels regarding how to reform and open up, especially on land, which is a sensitive issue. So, I'm afraid you'll lose everything. If the policy changes, they'll take back your land. What will you do then?" Director Ximing's tone was very serious.

Zhou Hong smiled and said, "I can contract for 99 years or something, according to your policies, that's possible now, right? It's not like I'm buying the ownership of the land."

"If you're not afraid to take risks, then you can." Director Ximing picked up his coffee, took a sip, and nodded gently.

It was a small gift from Zhou Hong, civet coffee from Indonesia.

Zhou Hong pondered for a moment and said, "I want to directly transform a village and create a new type of farm, rather than creating something from nothing. The original residents of the village will all own shares. I'll have someone write the business plan, and we can study it later?"

"I haven't seen you doing anything about your job lately!" Director Ximing said calmly after a moment of silence.

"My actual job is just for show. The working group I serve is here to observe the implementation of the poppy substitution program in your Golden Triangle region. You all know that, right?" Zhou Hong said casually, then added, "For the new farm, let's choose a poppy village, a village where the soil conditions make it difficult to grow other crops to make ends meet. I'll invest in completely transforming it into a new farm. What do you think?"

Director Ximing said calmly, "Let me take a look at your plan before giving you my opinion."

Zhou Hong nodded: "Furthermore, I hope that our third group, the 'Empress Dowager' Foundation group, can set up offices in Donghua County. This would give me a reason to be stationed there permanently."

Previously, staff members of the "Queen Mother" Foundation had applied for permission but were not granted entry into the heart of Laos; they were only permitted to operate in the riverside region.

Director Ximing considered for a moment and nodded: "Okay."

Zhou Hong added, "In addition, could my company apply to purchase a helicopter for transportation? The roads here are too difficult to travel, and I am tired from driving. For helicopter routes, I would apply for routes from Donghua County to Yinmu Mian and from Yinmu Mian to Huixi. These routes are within the economic zone and Huixi area and do not involve the inland areas."

"Helicopter transportation?" Director Ximing looked at him quietly.

"Yes..." Zhou Hong coughed.

"If you can really inject ten million US dollars, the helicopter won't be a problem," Director Ximing said calmly after a while.

Zhou Hong felt the same way. In Vientiane, the capital of Laos, there is Lao Skyway Airlines, which was established last year and provides helicopter charter services, mainly serving transportation and tourism in remote areas.

If your helicopter only flies around the Golden Triangle area, there shouldn't be any major problems.

"Thank you, boss!" Zhou Hong lazily got up. "My old arms and legs are finally going to be saved!" As if the chair he had just been sitting on was too hard, he massaged his shoulders and kicked his legs to stretch them out, and then leisurely left.

Looking at his back, Xi Ming suppressed the urge to shoot him, but couldn't help but chuckle for some reason.
