"Five points is not too much." Zhou Zhi said: "If there is demand, there will be supply, and a market will eventually form. Without this auction, those stamps would not have been sold at such a high price, because without this channel,

It's impossible to reach those buyers."

"So the handling fee of five points is still very cost-effective. This is not even art. The price of art is generally higher, 10%."

Jiang Wu understood something: "Those off-site agents..."

"Same, but they charge a buyer's commission. It's estimated to be between five points and 10%."

"It's so scary..."

Zhou Zhi couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It's still quite standardized now. Wait until you see it twenty years from now. Only then will you see the flower work in the auction house and let you know what it means to refresh the three worlds.

Of course, that is no longer the real purpose of cultural and entertainment exchanges.

"Actually, I also have something to ask Brother Jiang and Sister Qiqi."

"What's the matter?" Jiang Wu smiled and picked up the beer: "If you want to ask for help, soy milk is not good. Bring the wine."

"Brother Jiang, you have to drive soon..."

"The same goes for Qiqikai. Stop talking nonsense. Blow up the bottle first and then talk about it."

"Okay..." Zhou Zhi had no choice but to blow a bottle of cold beer with Jiang Wu in the middle of winter, and shuddered before saying: "That's it, next I will buy some things from Manager Fei of Gongmei. If I need

A secluded but safe place to keep it.”

"That's it..." Jiang Wu said, "That's really a coincidence..."

"How to say?"

"Elbow, you are more concerned about current affairs. You should know the difficulties the military is facing now, right?"

Indeed, it is really difficult for the military today.

It has only been a few years since the great disarmament, and the country's focus has shifted to modernization. In order to cooperate with this major strategic decision, the military has made huge sacrifices.

Many soldiers transferred to local jobs, and many military factories were transformed into civilian factories and became TV factories, air-conditioning factories, machinery factories...

Similarly, various funds including station repairs, daily training, equipment maintenance, etc. have been significantly cut. After several years of hard times, the local government is also complaining.

There is another phenomenon, which is the military doing business.

Because economic construction requires saving military expenditures, the military's funding is tight. After this issue became a prominent issue, the country issued the "Interim Regulations on the Military's Engagement in Production, Operations and Foreign Trade" to encourage the military to engage in production in a short period of time.

Business and foreign trade.

Many people opposed this move at the time, believing that "the military's business with the government will inevitably lead to official collapse, and official collapse will inevitably lead to corruption. Buying and selling in military uniform is a shame for the army and a tragedy for the country. Promoting business among the military is tantamount to destroying the Great Wall!"

"

The actual situation after that was indeed as expected by the opponents. Business brought great harm to the army.

At that time, someone summarized the three major harms of this move: First, engaging in business distracted the energy of leading cadres and agencies at all levels, and a considerable number of cadres and troops were not doing their jobs, which to a certain extent weakened the military's performance of functions and combat effectiveness;

The second is to engage in business to compete with local governments and the people for profits, which affects the relationship between the military and the government and disrupts the national economic order;

Third, doing business can easily breed corruption, corrode cadres, and corrupt the morale of the army.

Since the second half of last year, the country has adopted a gradual contraction and step-by-step rectification approach to prepare to solve this problem. It has clearly stipulated that troops below the division level are not allowed to operate enterprises.

But the root of the problem remains unresolved, which is the issue of funding sources.

The government and military have also set their sights on real estate.

"There is such a situation now." After Jiang Wu saw Zhou Zhi nodding to express that he knew the situation, Jiang Wu sighed: "The army also has an advantage in the local area, and that is the land in its hands."

This is a rich "legacy" left by history to local armies. In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were many garrisons in major cities. The garrisons needed camps, warehouses, training venues, and command locations. Therefore, they occupied a large number of garrisons in cities and suburbs.

soil of.

As the country's modernization process accelerated, cities also expanded rapidly. After several rounds of construction, both the government and the military discovered a problem, that is, the large number of military assets in the urban area brought inconvenience to everyone.

The government wants to plan and build, but it is a little too cautious; the military station is located in a busy city, which is also very inconvenient for military management.

Coupled with the shortage of funds, the military holds the land in the central district and can use asset swaps with the government to trade small ones for larger ones on the edge of the new city.

But the government is not stupid. It is also waiting for the rice to be ready, so its expectations are not high.

Now it happens that the country has a policy for the commercialization of real estate, so it will provide the policy. If there are those who are willing to pay to help the government resolve such difficulties and realize the "military-to-civilian conversion" of urban land assets, it can also be regarded as helping the government solve some of the problems.

Increased deed tax revenue can facilitate such cooperation and provide convenience within the scope of the policy.

Of course, it was not Zhou Zhi's turn to step forward. The military would negotiate with the government on his behalf and help him stand up.

"Do you have time tomorrow?" Jiang Wu looked like he had seen Da Yanggu: "There are several places, why don't you go to all of them?"

"I guess..." Jiang Wu rubbed his belly: "The place you want, elbow, must first be enough space, secondly, have a solid property, thirdly, it must be remote and clean, and fourthly, it is best if there are guards around it.

, the fifth best thing is to make traveling convenient, right?”

"Oh, I really didn't expect so much at the moment." Zhou Zhi opened another bottle of beer for Jiang Wu and himself: "Brother Jiang is still very skilled. I can trust you for this matter."

"But I agreed to accompany my godfather to the City God's Temple tomorrow. The source of cultural relics in the Jiachuan Cultural Center is not expropriation. It is meant to benefit others, so it needs to generate income."

"How to generate income?" Jiang Wu's eyes lit up when he heard the word "income generation".

"Uh... I'm afraid the army can't mess around, right?" Zhou Zhi said: "My godfather's idea is to free up the ballroom on the second floor of the Jiachuan Cultural Center and turn it into a karaoke dance hall..."

"The military headquarters also has a guest house..." Jiang Wu touched his chin: "What time will it be tomorrow? I'll join in the fun."

"Let's go to eight o'clock in the morning. Let's go see the equipment first, and then we go to Gongmei to find the fee manager."

…

…

Early the next morning, a group of people went to the Chenghuang Temple to inspect the audio equipment.

Today's equipment is still dominated by German brands and Japanese brands. Among domestic brands, the only one that is available is Hivi.

Since it is used as a karaoke hall, the sound effects must be in place. The small band in the ballroom of Jiachuan Cultural Center can be eliminated long ago.

Different from the private room-style KTV in later generations, the current karaoke hall combines the functions of a song and dance hall. The dancing area is made smaller, and a circle of small tea seats is added around it. The performance stage can also be made smaller, turning into a bar on one side and a bar on the other.
