After giving a safety lesson to the sub-adult white dolphins, Li Yaolin went to check on the adult white dolphins and confirmed that they and their fetuses were healthy. Just
as she was about to leave, she received a call from Director Fu, who exchanged pleasantries with her for a while before getting to the point: "Does Mr. Li have a female employee on his island who can communicate with dugongs and white dolphins?"
Li Yaolin: "..."
As far as she knew, she seemed to be the only person on the island who could communicate with wild marine life.
She said, "Yes, Director Fu is looking for...her?"
"It's like this. I want to shoot the second part of "The Mermaid Love Song". The protagonist of the story is the mermaid queen from the first part... During the queen's growth process, she will come into contact with many marine creatures. I want to present their friendly relationships, and only that female employee can do it, so I want to ask President Li to borrow people and... borrow Pipi."
"Pipi" is the name of the sub-adult. Not long after it settled in the waters of Xingzhou Island, a wealthy man in Yang City spent three million to adopt it for life. He also gave it this name because it was so lively and naughty.
"It's not appropriate to talk to me about Pipi. As for that female employee, are you looking for her to be a stand-in? Or do you just need a 'tamer' who can help you smoothly capture the interaction between the actors and the white dolphins?"
Director Fu said, "I want her to play the queen's youth as a mermaid princess."
Li Yaolin: "..."
The little mermaid was already laughing on the APP interface and pounding the ground crazily: "The island star is playing the mermaid princess, hahahaha..."
Li Yaolin said, "She won't... Acting, I'm here to refuse for her."
Director Fu was a little disappointed and wanted to persuade Li Yaolin to ask for his opinion first. Li Yaolin said, "Director Fu, do you need an actor who plays the mermaid queen in her infancy? My assistant Xiaoyu looks more like a mermaid queen in her infancy. She has a close relationship with the marine creatures on the island and doesn't need diving equipment for underwater filming."
Little mermaid: "..."
Director Fu said excitedly, "Really? That's great!"
"But I don't know if it is willing to join the team. Why don't I let it contact you itself?"
After ending the call, Li Yaolin glanced at the little mermaid who looked like a dried salted fish, and said with a smile: "You heard it, whether you are interested or not, just contact the other party yourself!"
The little mermaid climbed up: "The island owner wants to know what I look like through the TV series, right?"
Li Yaolin asked back: "Do you think I have time to watch TV series?"
She looked like a great boss who cared about her employees, and said, "I heard that the pay for filming is very high. With such a good thing, how can I not take care of my employees?"
The little mermaid thought about it and felt that it seemed to be the case.
Its eyes rolled around, and it said coyly, "But I am the island owner's assistant. I cannot do anything unrelated to work during working hours!"
Li Yaolin complained in her heart, "Don't you usually do too many things unrelated to work?"
She said, "Then as the island owner, I will allow you to do some side jobs without delaying your work."
"Since it is the island owner's order, there is nothing I can do!" The little mermaid said, packed her luggage, jumped into the sea of APP, and ran away without a trace.
Li Yaolin: "..."
It ran quite fast!
Fifteen minutes had passed since the end of the lunch break, and Li Yaolin turned back to the office.
The housekeeper reminded her that the leaders of the Cultural and Tourism Bureau and the deputy director of the County Tourism Bureau had already boarded the ship, and it was estimated that they would be able to land on the island in another twenty minutes.
The leaders of the Culture and Tourism Bureau came to Xingzhou Island to conduct research on upgrading the protected area to a national protected area. They also came to lobby for the Wenhua Group and persuade Li Yaolin to take over the tourism project of Jiahai together with the Wenhua Group.
Now, when tourists from inside and outside the province mention the tourist attractions in Youshi, they will blurt out Xingzhou Island. It has become an iconic tourism brand in Youshi. Therefore, if it can promote cooperation with the Wenhua Group, it will be of great help to further revitalize the tourism industry in Youshi.
In addition to these leaders and deputy directors, representatives of the Wenhua Group also came. The other party was Qiao Jin, the president of Wenhua Tourism Investment Management Group, a subsidiary of the Wenhua Group. When he came, he brought a secretary and an assistant with him.
The first time they set foot on Xingzhou Island, the representatives of the Wenhua Group knew that it was absolutely right to come to Xingzhou Island for cooperation.
Although the relationship between the two parties became a little subtle after the Mandarin Group released the news of cooperation to make the stock rise, and Romantic Sea House caused trouble for Xingzhou Island and Mandarin Group behind the scenes, but when it came to the formal occasion, both parties remained absolutely rational.
Under Qiao Jin's command, her secretary spread out a map in front of Li Yaolin. In the conception of the Mandarin Group, the sea area of the reserve is adjacent to Jiahai. If the two parties can jointly develop Jiahai, it will be a win-win-win situation:
Mandarin Group will invest in Xingzhou Island to develop and operate Jiahai, and incorporate Jiahai Scenic Area into the map of Xingzhou Island tourist attractions. Li Yaolin only needs to improve the environment so that marine life is willing to move around in Jiahai, and then use this as a gimmick to attract tourists to come and play. Even if most tourists still cannot land on the island, they can still have fun in Jiahai.
Xingzhou Island can also take this opportunity to build the island into a high-end tourist attraction and increase ticket prices, which will not reduce the reputation of the scenic area and can make more money.
As for the Mandarin Group, it has made money and won reputation.
Li Yaolin did not show any fear in front of the president of a group company who was 22 years older than her, with delicate makeup but too-uplifted eyebrows that made his face look a bit stern. She said calmly:
"It's good to win three games, but unfortunately I only have one position. Xingzhou Island currently has sufficient funds and does not need investment. In addition, even if Xingzhou Island and Mandarin Group jointly invest in the establishment of a development and management company, all projects that Xingzhou Island is responsible for development and operation must be under the premise that Xingzhou Island is the dominant party, and the company must be a wholly-owned holding company of Xingzhou Island."
Qiao Jin stared at her: "So, President Li, you want to go it alone?"
Li Yaolin said helplessly: "I have no plans to expand the coastline for the time being."
Qiao Jin smiled . "It's okay. We can't talk about it today. We can continue the conversation next time."
After leaving, her assistant kept complaining: "She looks young and has a good temper, but I didn't expect her to be so controlling."
Qiao Jin said: "Fang Xinhua said before that he can cooperate with her, but he has to give up the decision-making power. His projects that he invests a little money in don't require him to ask or interfere. He can make money just by sitting there, which is naturally good for him. But for a project as big as the development of Jiahai, let alone giving up the decision-making power, he can't even not ask." "
It seems that we can't talk about it."
Qiao Jin didn't say anything.
She vaguely felt that it wasn't that they couldn't cooperate, but they both needed to change their cooperation concepts and directions...
Two days later, Qiao Jin came to see Li Yaolin again, but not to discuss the development of Jiahai, but to invite Li Yaolin to visit the tourism projects invested by Wenhua Group.
Li Yaolin happily went.
They went to the mangrove reserve, Biwan Tourism Island, Yanling and Film City.
Qiao Jin showed Li Yaolin the old photos of this area and asked, "Do you know how many years it took to develop this place?"
"I've seen the news, almost four years?"
Qiao Jin sighed, "Yes, four years, but with the early planning, it took six years. It took so much time and hundreds of millions of yuan, but the result is not satisfactory."
This part of the film and television city, which has been built, looks very grand from the renderings, but you will find it is very small when you walk in. When filming the film and television dramas, it is both a mansion and a street, and it cannot show one-tenth of the renderings.
It takes two hours to visit the Lion Grove in Suzhou, but here, you can basically see all the free attractions in half an hour.
Whether it is viewing or playing, it is not as good as the buildings on Xingzhou Island.
Li Yaolin thought that she had a system to protect her development and construction, and there were no contractors or engineers cutting corners. Every penny of the project money was spent on the right things, so whether it was the buildings or the attractions, they were very classy at first glance.
If she had spent money to hire someone to do the construction herself, it would probably be like this. Therefore, she did not dare to be complacent.
Qiao Jin said: "Despite this, we will still develop as planned, because this is not only related to whether the company can make a profit, but also to the tourism economy of this Biwan area. The village behind the film and television city will be developed into a tourist folk village. We estimate that the tourism industry can increase the income of 500 households in several villages around by about 100,000
yuan per year." Before the Mandarin Group invested in the development, the villages here were neither close to the mountains nor the sea. The land underfoot was saline and alkaline and could not be used for farming, so it was very poor and backward. The annual per capita income of each household in the village was only 22,000 yuan. For a family of five, an annual increase of 100,000 yuan is equivalent to doubling the income.
After listening to Qiao Jin's speech, Li Yaolin had to admit that although the other party beautified the original intention of entrepreneurs to invest, as a senior executive of a large enterprise, the other party's vision was indeed big; as a senior who had been working in society for decades, she would be more mature and have more unique insights, and she still had to learn from her.
Li Yaolin said: "Kejiahai is too far away from these places. It is not in the tourism economic circle planned by the Mandarin Group!"
Qiao Jin looked at her with approval and said: "It was not originally there. At present, the circle planned by our company is on the coastline southwest of Biwan Port, but when the coastal highway is opened, these scenic spots can be connected and used as anchors to radiate to the surrounding areas. Shoot..."
Li Yaolin figured out the connection: "You want to use the influence of Xingzhou Island to help the coastal tourist attractions in Youshi open up the domestic and overseas markets?"
Qiao Jin nodded. Although Wenhua Group has travel agencies and domestic and overseas tourism businesses, the coastal tourism industry in Youshi is not global. Before Xingzhou Island frequently became a hot search, few people in the province had heard of these scenic spots.
Therefore, Wenhua Travel Agency basically would not bother to open a tourist route such as "Foreign-Youshi" that would lose money.
Nowadays, Xingzhou Island has begun to be known by foreign netizens because of its water quality and environment comparable to tropical islands such as Thailand and Malaysia, as well as various strange phenomena on the island.
The increasing number of overseas tourists is enough to show that Xingzhou Island can lead the coastal tourism culture of Youshi to go abroad.
Li Yaolin: “…”
There’s no need to put Xingzhou Island on such a high pedestal.
The other party is indeed a veteran in the Chixiao Mall, and he almost led her into a ditch with just a few words.
She was not flattered by Qiao Jin’s flattery.
After a day of leisurely strolling and parting with Qiao Jin, she did not catch the last boat back to Xingzhou Island, but strolled around the Liantou Port Pier.
Liantou Port had shared bicycles at some point, so she scanned a shared bicycle and rode along the coastline from Liantou Port, admiring the scenery along the way while trying to record every inch of land here with a development perspective. It took more than three hours to slowly arrive at Baoren Port Pier.
It was almost dusk, and the boats to the island had stopped sailing, but the area around the pier was still bustling.
I don't know when the night market started here. Small vendors sell clothes, accessories, snacks, drinks and dried seafood. The people who visit the night market here are basically tourists who took the last boat to leave the island and are waiting for the tourist bus to Biwan Station.
During the half-hour wait for the bus, they may be hungry or bored, so the simple night market near the pier has become their best choice to continue killing time.
The folk village invested and built by Mandarin Group came to mind, and Li Yaolin thought that perhaps a tourism derivative industry street could also be built in the Baoren Port area.
Regardless of whether the system supports it or not, she wants to do something according to her own ideas.
In addition to the development funds, her assets include eight-digit funds from the first half of the year's surplus. Considering that there are still some projects to be developed on the island, these funds cannot be moved too much... Just take out 20 million to test the waters!
Thinking of this, Li Yaolin suddenly wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.
She never thought that she, Li Yaolin, would one day be able to say such a "rich" and passionate statement as "take 20 million to test the waters".
She did not stay at the pier for long, and rode her bicycle to the Cultural and Creative Park.
Seeing that the lights were still on in the office area of the Cultural and Creative Park, she knew that Zheng Xuan was still working overtime.
She knocked on Zheng Xuan's office door: "Why do I remember that I didn't receive your overtime application?"
Zheng Xuan was startled, and when he saw her coming, he said in surprise: "You are still outside at this time, it's rare!"
"It took me a while to ride my bike here, and I missed the last boat, so I had to come to you for help. I hope you can take me in for one night." Li Yaolin's eyes fell on the map of the Cultural and Creative Park, and she suddenly smiled, "I remember Brother Xuan, you said that you wanted to create a tourism and cultural industry chain with island tourism as the main focus? How about using the Cultural and Creative Park as the hub?"

Island owner: If I have money... I will make it myself (*^▽^*)
