The moment the ferry docked, Halston came out of his trance. Who would have thought that more than a year ago, Du Lin was just an ordinary businessman under his rule...
Well, the businessman who was a bit threatening to him heard that Dulin was going to run for office, so he kicked Dulin out, and by the way he wanted to earn some political donations from Dulin. What he didn't expect was that Dulin did much better than he imagined. Not only could he survive in Cosenna State without relying on him, but he was also living a very nourishing life.
During this time, there were always people mentioning Dulin, the city of Otis, and sometimes him in his ears, but most of them were not words that made him happy. For example, these people mocked his stupidity between the lines. A guy with enough talent and "strength" like Du Lin didn't stay under her but sent him away out of fear. Instead, the goddess of fate kissed Du Lin's forehead.
How stupid!
His mentor also believed that this was a failed plan, but no one did anything wrong. No one could have imagined that Dulin could quickly develop a poor city in such an environment, and withstand the early stage Pressure and wild ideas turned the city of Otis into the jewel in the middle of the empire.
This not only gained Dulin great reputation, but also allowed people to see his abilities. He is definitely an outstanding young man.
Now, he has to stand here to greet Dulin, because their identities are almost the same. On the other hand, it can even be said that the mayor of Ilian, His Excellency Huo Siton, is shorter than Dulin. Because he wants to run for the governor of Cosonas, he has a good relationship with Harry. As long as Harry is elected prime minister three years later, he will nominate him to become the governor of Cosonas. Whether a nomination is a nomination or a campaign requires a vote, the appointed successor will not be an accident in most cases because the successor represents an extension of the political platform of the previous governor.
But there is another Dulin in this, and Hoston is not sure whether Dulin knows what he is doing. If he gets a stick when he is running for governor, it will definitely be a painful blow to his dream of becoming governor! He has now become a man who looks to Dulin - hoping that Dulin will be on his side during the election.
A ferry pushed through the thick fog in the winter morning and slowly docked. The stiff muscles on Huo Siton's face shook in the winter wind before he squeezed out a smile. He took the initiative to stand by the gangway and stared at Du Lin. Come down the gangway.
Looking at the deserted streets, Dulin shook hands with Halston, "This year's winter break seems to be a little more deserted than in previous years!"
Horston nodded, "The number of tourists coming to Ilian dropped sharply in the two months before this year's winter break. Some small workshops have gone bankrupt and are operating in debt. Some people have chosen to leave Ilian and go to the south to search. opportunity, so it will appear more deserted." He stretched out his hand and invited Du Lin to get in the car.
What he meant was that the city of Otis had put a lot of effort into publicity and snatched away some of the tourists who belonged to Ilian, causing Ilian to experience a severe economic recession two months before the winter break, causing A wave of closures of small handicraft workshops that were not serious.
As a tourist city with sightseeing and tourism as its economic pillar, Ilian has a huge demand for tourist flow. Once the flow of people decreases, all aspects of the entire city will be severely affected. What's even more terrible is the handicraft workshops that do not have the ability to resist risks. A large backlog of goods began to appear, but no one cared about it. As a result, some shops and workshops that had borrowed money to sell goods had no choice but to go bankrupt and end their operations because they were unable to repay the loans.
The economic recession in a region will not produce just one kind of problem. Such problems are definitely diverse and very complex.
The complaint hidden in Halston's words was indeed what he was thinking. After all, there are only so many tourists in the empire, although the number increases every year. The popularity of Odis City will inevitably affect other places to a certain extent. Not only Horston, but also the mayors of several other cities have the same thoughts. The only area that has not been affected is the South, where nearly one-third of the main consumer groups come from the federation.
The car kept moving and entered District 8 after passing through the newly built ring road. There were obviously much more people here, including not only local celebrities, but also some film workers from the Imperial Capital, as well as a large number of people. reporter.
The Eighth District is advertised as the "Cradle of Imperial Cinema". The tone was set when it was first built - everything is in the service of movies.
There are a total of eight major scenic spots here, whether it is the sea or the desert, whether it is the plains or forests, there is everything here, as well as ample living areas and various facilities and buildings. It can be said that as long as you shoot a movie here, you can completely put together the scenes needed for a movie without leaving the city. This is very important to many film professionals. It is important to know that the cost of filming in a film occupies a considerable part.
Just chartering a boat or car is a huge expense!
Now, these costs are saved because most film needs can be met here.
Halston stood in the crowd, smiling like a flower blooming in the cold winter under the spotlight. He announced in public that he had negotiated contracts with at least eleven film production groups and that filming would begin here at the same time. At least no less than seven movies, and the crowd surrounding him suddenly burst into exclamations.
The Eighth District has already secured the production of eleven films just after it was built. As long as one of them sells well, it is enough to prove that the Eighth District has sound hardware and software facilities and can attract more filmmakers to choose to film here. movie, District 8 will also become a shining signature. In the original design, tourists here also had the opportunity to experience the process of filming a movie. According to the contract, if the crew needs to use extras, they should first select them from tourists.
It is not impossible if the crew denies this contract, but there will be no preferential treatment for certain projects.
With such a rule, those crazy movie fans will definitely make District 8 a money-drawing monster, contributing to economic construction outside of Illian's tradition.
This time was different from last time. After saying a few words, Hoston actually took the initiative to greet Dulin, "Mr. Dulin, come here!" While greeting Dulin, he held his belly and told the reporters around him. He said to the guests, "Mr. Dulin must be familiar to everyone. He is the builder of the miracle in Otis City and one of the largest investors in District 8. Most people will have moments of success, and Mr. Dulin is obviously one of them. He is a leader and has been successful. Let this successful man talk about his future prospects for District 8!”
