Take Taobao to fight against Japan

Don't worry, you still need to further consolidate your foundation and train enough excellent sailors. As long as the time is right, I will let you show your strengths! "

"Hehe, of course I know this! It's just that it's too greedy to look at! And I feel a little aggrieved to be nestled in that one-third of an acre of land all day long."

Liu Qiang was an embarrassing old cold head, and then asked curiously: "Boss, is the United States really powerful? How do they compare with the Japanese?"

Yang Fan said very seriously: "The comprehensive national strength of the United States is more than ten times stronger than that of Japan, coupled with its unique geographical advantages, it has always stayed away from wars and made war fortunes.

Even if they are now involved in a world war, their homeland will hardly be affected, and they can develop and strengthen their military power with peace of mind.

Therefore, although the military strength of the United States is not strong on the surface, both the army and the navy are much worse than Japan.

But once involved in a war, the American war machine can start at full speed without distraction, and they can build a powerful navy far surpassing Japan in a short period of time!

In wars, war potential and overall national strength are ultimately judged. Didn’t the little devils accumulate decades of time to achieve the current climate? "

Liu Qiang asked somewhat unclearly: "Boss, don't you often say that a ten-year army and a century-old navy, if you want to build a strong navy, you need a hundred years of precipitation, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to do it? "

Yang Fan explained with a smile: "Everything has to be analyzed in detail, and nothing can be generalized, not to mention that '[-]-year army, [-]-year navy' is only a relative concept, not an absolute length of time!

You don't have to think so far now, just take it step by step, as long as the time is right, everything will fall into place! "

The reason why Yang Fan spoke so patiently is because he can understand Liu Qiang's psychology: it is largely supported by faith, and it is difficult to see the future of his own navy from a normal perspective.

"Thank you, Chief, for clarifying the confusion. Every time I chat with Chief, I feel full of strength!"

Liu Qiang flattered without losing the opportunity, but felt much better in his heart.

Woo~woo~woo~, at this moment a passenger ship full of refugees sailed into the port. At a glance, even the deck was full of refugees in ragged clothes.

But now it was deep winter, and the weather was extremely cold. All the refugees were blue from the cold, clasping their bodies with their hands and shivering in the cold wind.

The sea breeze was blowing, and one could already smell an unpleasant sour smell faintly.

Chapter 601 Don't Fall Behind

"Why are there so many people?"

Yang Fan frowned slightly, not because he really thought there were too many people, but because he felt that few people could bear the cold wind blowing all the way, and even if they got there by faith, they would probably suffer a serious illness.

Liu Chengchang who was standing aside quickly replied: "Boss, in fact, the number of Shanghai refugees who flow into our defense area every day has been greatly reduced, only six or seven small boats a day, and three to four thousand people!

It's just that the Japanese devils were particularly shady, not only did they not give them food or drink, but they also made them stand on the deck and blow the icy cold wind.

Most of the devils did this to make these refugees who were already weak and malnourished have a serious illness. They wished that all these refugees would die when they arrived! "

After a pause, Liu Chengchang continued: "In addition, the refugees who come here are basically old, weak, sick and disabled, and the number of strong men is pitifully small. The devil must have played tricks on this!"

The little devil has realized that a large number of imported refugees will not be able to divert the disaster to the east, which will seriously consume Yang Fan's food and supplies. However, in order to delay the rhythm due to the powerful force of the Chinese Tiger Army, he came up with these insidious tricks.

"What? These dogs, are they still people?"

"Hehe, you still treat the little devil as a human being? These beasts, there is nothing in this world that they can't do!"

"Fuck his ancestors, don't let these turtle grandsons fall into my hands in the future!"

Hearing these words, Liao Youtian, Liu Qiang and others were all filled with righteous indignation. Because their job responsibilities do not involve the civil affairs work of refugee resettlement, they don't know about these situations.

"We will settle these accounts with the little devil in the future! After these refugees arrive here, we must do our best to take good care of them, let them have enough food and clothing, treat them when they are sick, and do a good job of isolation and inspection. Just in case the little devil makes another trick!"

Yang Fan's heart was also burning with anger, but he couldn't help it, no amount of cruel words would help, he might as well keep silent.

Liu Chengchang nodded quickly and said, "President, please rest assured, we will accept refugees strictly according to the procedures and systems you specified, and nothing will go wrong!"

"very good!"

Yang Fan nodded, and then asked: "How many people in Laiyang County are still receiving treatment in the isolation area? How is the current overall situation?"

Liu Chengchang replied with a serious tone: "Reporting to the chief, there are only more than 900 critically ill patients left, and the death toll is 875!

The situation of those critically ill patients is not very optimistic, and the death toll may further increase.

The military hospital has done its best. Most of the civilians who died were frail and sickly refugees with poor resistance. Even with medicine, they couldn't survive. "

"Just do your best!"

Although I really want everyone to survive, it is unrealistic, and it is impossible for Yang Fan to criticize the frontline officers and soldiers who work day and night.

What's more, the little devil dropped such a large dose of bacterial weapons, and the total death toll on his side was more than 1000, which is not easy.

Yang Fan then asked: "How many Shanghai refugees have we accepted so far? How many are there in Shanghai? How long will it take to finish it?"

Liu Chengchang quickly replied: "We have more than 360 people. According to relevant information, there are nearly 20 refugees from Shanghai who want to come to us. According to the current speed, it may be the end of January next year!

Originally, according to the previous speed, it should have ended half a month ago! "

"Very good, you have done a solid job! I am very satisfied!"

Even after asking a few questions, Liu Chengchang was able to answer them fluently, with detailed and accurate data. It has to be said that he has put in a lot of effort in civil affairs!

Liu Chengchang said with a smile on his face: "The boss treats me as much as a mountain, and I have the kindness of knowing you. I, Liu Chengchang, can be cultivated by the boss. No matter what time it is, I will be full of twelve spirits, and I will do my best to die!" "

Looking at the extremely busy wharf and the vast and boundless sea level, Yang Fan turned his head to look at the confidant generals around him, and said with emotion:

"It is even more difficult to fight the country and defend the country. We still have a long, long way to go. I hope that everyone can unite closely with one heart and one mind. Don't get lost and fall behind as you walk! That would be too much." Sorry!"

Although it can’t be said to be well-read, there are too many "cunning rabbits and dogs cooking, flying birds do their best to hide their bows" in the history of China. Many heroes who founded the country could not die well. I don't even want to pick up the butcher knife and kill my own people!

"Please don't worry, the chief, we are all soldiers brought out by the chief, and we only recognize the chief in this life!"

"A scholar dies for his confidant,..."

Hearing this, Liu Chengchang and others couldn't help but tremble all over. Although Yang Fan didn't specifically target anyone, they still felt extremely heavy pressure.

Because they all know that even though their leading brother looks harmless to humans and animals, he is actually a decisive and ruthless man. Come out, no one dares to doubt every word and every warning Yang Fan said!

After sending Stilwell away, Yang Fan did not stay too long in Qingdao, nor did he feel his presence in front of the refugees who had just arrived in Qingdao, because these refugees are now continuing to eat and clothe themselves instead of giving condolences.

After returning home, Yang Fan found Wu Qian immediately, took out a document bag from his briefcase and said, "Recently I conceived a script, if you are interested in making it into a movie, it must be very meaningful." .”

"Really? That's great, "A River of Spring Water Flows Eastward" is about to wrap up, and I'm planning to film a new drama recently!"

Since Wu Qian joined the Gaomi Film Studio, she has successively shot two popular films, "Eight Thousand Miles of Clouds and Moon" and "The Wandering Story of Sanmao". It was a big sensation, and the attendance rate in the United States was full.

Now Wu Qian can be regarded as a senior producer, and at the same time she has found her own hobbies and career, and she exudes the temperament and charm of a professional woman from the inside out.

"as long as you are happy!"

Yang Fan smiled happily, how could being alone be more enjoyable than being together?

"Dancing Girl's Tears? Just the name alone feels very touching!"

"Brother Fan, you are so talented. After listening to Powell's speech, I had the urge to make a movie about this!"

"Wow, there's also a movie theme song?"

"How many people have experienced so many joys and sorrows in order to live. How many people have shed blood and tears for life, and complained to whom, ah, who can understand the sorrow of being a dancing girl..."

After Wu Qian took the file bag, she opened it and read it. She was soon fascinated, she kept praising it while reading it, and even hummed "Tears of a Dancing Girl" softly afterward.

Chapter 602 Let It Go

After Wu Qian finished reading the script, Yang Fan said with a smile: "Although you can go big at the film studio, don't be afraid to spend money, don't have any scruples, I will do my best to support your work.

As long as you need anything, just ask, and promise to ask for money, money, and people. "

"Thank you, Brother Fan! It's great to have you, I'm so happy these days!"

Wu Qian was overwhelmed with happiness again, then smiled and shook her head and said, "However, I am very satisfied now, and there is no need to spend too much money on this.

Now is the age of war, and we still have to fight bloody little devils to the end, so you should spend all your money on the military and people's livelihood! "

As a wife who shares weal and woe, Wu Qian is not a prodigal woman. The biggest motivation for applying to run a film studio is not purely for hobbies and entertainment, but because Yang Fan needs to make more anti-Japanese war films.

Otherwise, Wu Qian, who has always been diligent and thrifty in managing her family, would never have spent so much money and things on a film studio that seemed useless.

Yang Fan said with a smile: "Qian'er, don't underestimate the film entertainment industry, except that it can make exciting anti-Japanese movies and make a lot of money.

I let you do it freely, and you put your heart in your stomach, you don't need to look forward and backward like that! "

Wu Qian blinked and said, "Really? You didn't say that just to make me happy, did you?"

Yang Fan said seriously: "When have I ever lied to you? Let me tell you about the box office of our domestic film industry first.

At present, our Chinese films are mainly imported, and American films account for more than 80%. It is no exaggeration to say that American films are completely dominated by the world.

Shanghai has the largest number of movie theaters and movie audiences in China, and is the most important market for Chinese and foreign film entrepreneurs to compete for. Shanghai has become a barometer of the Chinese film market. .

Taking the Shanghai box office as an example, there are 16 cinemas in Shanghai showing foreign films, with a total of 17208 seats, and the ticket price is between 2 jiao and 1 yuan. , the daily income can be 50 yuan, and the annual income is more than 60 million yuan.

The annual box office revenue of American movies in Shanghai alone can account for 21% of the national government's fiscal revenue. Not to mention the huge market in other cities in China and the United States, making a good movie is enough to earn millions or even thousands of dollars. Ten thousand U.S. dollars!

When I say this, do you still think I am joking with you? "

For the film industry, which is more lucrative than robbing banks, Yang Fan has no reason not to be extraordinarily high. Not only are a large number of pirated classic films released in the United States, but he also spends huge sums of money to build Oriental Hollywood.

With a large number of good scripts and advanced shooting equipment, there is no need to worry about not being able to make good movies, not to mention that the current entertainment industry is highly underdeveloped. Even movies on the bad street in the 21st century will be popular now.

In addition, I can deliver the goods to my door through the Taobao system, so I don't have to worry about the film's release in the United States.

After a pause, Yang Fan asked with a smile, "Do you know how much money we've made from filming "Eight Hundred Heroes", "Eight Thousand Miles of Clouds and Moon", and "The Wanderings of Sanmao"?"

Wu Qian's curiosity arose immediately, and she tugged on Yang Fan's arm and asked anxiously, "How much money did you make? Brother Fan, tell me quickly!"

"hey-hey!"

Yang Fan raised his eyebrows proudly, then pointed out three fingers and said: "Due to the turmoil in our country, we only earn 30 yuan so far.

But in the United States, we have already earned a total of more than 200 million US dollars, and there is still room for continued profit. Even if these three films are released in the future, we can further sell copyrights for money. "

Wu Qian widened her eyes and said, "Wow, did I really make so much money? Am I really that good?"

Yang Fan nodded with certainty and said: "Yeah, I really didn't want to make you happy. I originally wanted to tell you the good news after it was released, but now that I've talked about it today, I want to make you happy in advance!

Let me tell you responsibly, these days, not only did you not waste your money, but you made a lot of money. This money is enough to arm two American machine standardists. Are you happy? "

"Wow! It's amazing! I can make so much money! I'm so happy, I can finally share my worries with Brother Fan!"

"Great, I can let go and do a lot of work in the future! I don't have to be afraid of this or that anymore! Hee hee, Brother Fan, I'm so happy!"

Seeing Yang Fan's serious eyes, Wu Qian finally believed that what she heard was the truth, and immediately jumped up and down excitedly, so excited!

After Wu Qian calmed down a bit, Yang Fan said with a smile: "So, recently, I have been planning to further expand the scale of the film studio and carry out related salary system reforms.

To make the horse run, we have to let the horse graze! "

Wu Qian asked a bit wrongly: "Brother Fan, do you mean to increase their wages? No way, ordinary actors' wages are at least one hundred yuan, and leading actors such as Die Die, Zhou Xuan, and Yang Huimin are as high as four to five hundred yuan a month." Yuan, the salary of screenwriter, director and producer is not low!

Now that our studio is enough to make people jealous, if we increase wages significantly, will it make other departments gossip? "

In fact, Yang Fan's previously set salary was not considered high, it was just based on the current salary level and remuneration in the same industry.

In the 20s and 20s, the salaries of female stars were basically equivalent to those of university teachers.

For example, the most popular female stars in the Republic of China were Hu Die, Ruan Lingyu, and Zhou Xuan!

Hu Die was one of the most famous Chinese actresses in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. She had scandals with Zhang Xueliang and Dai Li. Hu Die's salary was also the highest at that time. Hu Die's salary was between 400 yuan and 1600 yuan. Please note that , the remuneration is paid on a monthly basis.

Ruan Lingyu's salary is more than 800 yuan, Jin Yan is a male star, his salary is 300 yuan, Yuan Meiyun's film salary is 200 to 500 yuan, and Zhou Xuan's film salary is only 40 yuan at the beginning. After she became famous, her film salary Only reached 200 yuan.

At that time, Hollywood directors from the United States came to China to shoot movies and hired Chinese actresses. How much was the salary?

12 yuan per day, calculated as 30 days a month, is only 360 yuan.

But what is the salary of the average worker?

Drivers in Peiping and Tianjin earn 0.8 yuan a day, and if calculated as 30 days a month, they can still earn about 25 yuan. Therefore, an ordinary driver who pulls a car for a year is roughly equivalent to a month's salary for an ordinary female star.

Similarly, the salaries of actors in studios, especially the salaries of several popular stars are much higher than that of ordinary workers, and a salary is equivalent to a year's salary of ordinary people.

Therefore, Wu Qian has always been very unconfident. Although she herself likes the film industry very much, she deeply believes that actors are just a low-level profession. To put it bluntly, they are just a bunch of actors!

If the wages are too high, will it cause adverse social reactions and make people in other industries and positions feel unfair and dissatisfied.

But now that Yang Fan wants to raise his salary further, Wu Qian really finds it difficult to accept, for fear of causing gossip, good things turn bad, and unnecessary troubles are added to Yang Fan.

Chapter 603

Yang Fan shook his head and said: "Three hundred and sixty-five lines will produce champions, and there will always be some people who stand at the top of the pyramid in every line of business. This is the market economy!

There may be some gossip and disadvantages in doing so, but in fact there are many benefits. Not only can we get a lot of taxes, but also create a better competitive atmosphere and give more people hope to get ahead! "

Yang Fan understands Wu Qian's concerns, not to mention that even decades later, it is still a very controversial proposition. Many people unilaterally complain that "actors have misled the country", and complain that celebrities are richer than experts and academicians.
