Everyone quieted down, Zhou Andong put down the napkin in his hand: "First, June 18th, the music festival, in the afternoon, I went to take a look, the land in the second phase has been leveled.

But this is not enough, we also need to buy two thousand tents, and set them up around the music festival venue at that time, free for tourists from other places to rest. Of course, our security personnel and staff, as well as the performers, also need a place to rest, so tents are essential."

Wu Huilin nodded: "I neglected this, but are two thousand tents a bit too many?"

"Not many!" Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Two thousand tents, even if they can't all be used, we have to keep some spares, just in case.

And, we want to buy, we have to buy military ones, practical and sturdy as the main thing. Because I want to build the Jiangzhou Yugong Culture Music Festival into Jiangzhou's business card, and also our Yugong Group's business card.

For example, the Milan Fashion Week, famous internationally, and the Dalian International Fashion Festival, which has also risen in recent years, has become a city's business card.

We don't need to compare with them, to be famous internationally, we only need that in the future, when someone mentions the music festival, our Yugong Group, Yugong Culture Music Festival, can become a topic that everyone can't bypass.

So, the music festival will be held every year, and tents are not disposable, it doesn't matter if we buy a few more, they can be used every year."

"Build our Yugong Group's business card!"

Not just Wu Huilin, everyone else was interested.

Regarding the Milan International Fashion Week, except for Zhou Xianyong, this industry tycoon, only Zhou Wanyu and Wu Huilin knew more about it.

As for Qian Zhen and the others, they only heard the name, knew it was related to clothing, and didn't know anything else.

But they knew about the Dalian International Fashion Festival, and four years ago, Gu Qing took her daughter to Dalian specifically to watch the performance of the International Fashion Festival.

"In addition!" Zhou Andong continued: "That is food and drink, besides ice black tea, very cola, and brave to the end of the world, we have to start stocking up now, we also need mineral water, at least 500 tons."

Speaking of this, Zhou Andong said regretfully: "Our water plant in Arong Banner won't be built and put into production until the end of the year, we can only buy Laoshan mineral water, after all, Qingdao is not far from our Jiangzhou."

Gu Bing asked suspiciously: "Drinks, beer, and water, provided for free?"

Zhou Andong looked at Gu Bing like an idiot: "If Director Gu pays out of his own pocket to buy, I don't object."

"Since it's not provided for free, why stock up?" Gu Bing rolled his eyes at Zhou Andong: "Any small shop has it for sale, even the small carts on the street have it for sale, are you afraid of running out of stock?"

We don't charge tickets for the music festival, we have to sell some drinks, beer, mineral water, etc., to create some income."

"How much money can that earn?" Gu Bing said very unconvinced: "When the music festival starts, there will definitely be a large number of small vendors running over to grab business."

Zhou Andong sighed: "We can't stop small vendors, but we can't let them into the venue either. One is for safety, two is for environment and hygiene, we can only let them set up stalls outside the venue.

Think about it, drinks, beer, and mineral water are sold inside the venue, who would run far to buy them outside the venue?"

Gu Bing was still unconvinced: "Even if what you say is reasonable, but 500 tons of mineral water, you are not just letting people buy it back to drink, but also want people to buy it back to take a bath, right?"

"Why so much nonsense." Zhou Andong snorted: "Mineral water has a shelf life of one or two years, if it can't be sold, can't we give it to employees as benefits during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Gu Bing looked at Zhou Andong like an idiot: "Have you ever seen anyone give mineral water as a benefit to employees?"

"When I give it, you will see it." Zhou Andong said: "Also instant noodles, ham sausages, biscuits, and bread with a relatively long shelf life, at least three months or more, all need to be bought more. If it can't be sold, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, give it to employees as benefits."

Zhou Andong bought so many tents and mineral water, including instant noodles, biscuits, and bread, actually to prepare for the flood in July. He could only buy them under the excuse of the music festival, otherwise it would be difficult for him to explain.

Zhou Andong tapped the table: "We sell these things, not counting on making money, and can't earn much money, for the sake of service, for the sake of reputation, to let tourists from other places who come to participate in the music festival feel at home."

Zhou Andong said this, and everyone understood. Indeed, relying on the music festival to sell drinks and instant noodles can't earn much money. But in order to make tourists from other places feel at home and create a better experience for them, doing so is necessary.

And in mid-to-late June, the weather is already very hot, prepare more mineral water, just in case. Just like the chairman said, if there is any left, give it to employees as benefits.

Although mineral water as a benefit for employees is indeed a bit unreasonable, but stocking up more instant noodles and ham sausages, and giving them to employees together during the Mid-Autumn Festival would be perfect.

In this era, instant noodles and ham sausages are good things, as a holiday benefit for employees, they will definitely be very popular.

Then they discussed the details of the music festival, originally Qian Zhen and the others had no interest in holding a music festival.

But after Zhou Andong said it, to build their own business card like the Dalian International Fashion Festival, one by one was like being injected with chicken blood.

Until past eight o'clock, the hotel was about to get off work, and everyone dispersed.

Zhou Andong continued to stay in the hotel with Zhou Xianyong and Zhou Wanyu.

Waking up the next morning, Zhou Andong dialed Zhao Liangping's big brother phone.

"Boss Zhao, how is life recently?"

Zhao Liangping yawned: "If you don't call so early, my life is very good, but this phone call of yours ended the good mood of these days."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Something to do with you, help me buy two speedboats, the kind that can sit six or seven people."

"Speedboat?" Zhao Liangping asked curiously: "What are you buying that stuff for?"

"Isn't summer coming soon." Zhou Andong leaned against the headboard and lit a cigarette: "Thinking about having time to go to Shanghai to fish."

"Buying a yacht is better." Zhao Liangping tempted: "Buy a 30-meter luxury yacht, it's only 800,000 to 1 million US dollars, this is a drop in the bucket for the rich Boss Zhou, why buy a broken speedboat?"

"Not to mention how to do it in winter, just say that Jiangzhou doesn't even have a private pier, where to park?" Zhou Andong smoked a cigarette: "And maintenance problems, can't find a professional, how to maintain?"

"Put the yacht in Yangcheng or Shencheng, Zhuhai is also okay. There is nothing to say between our brothers, I will find a pier for you, and I will pay for the maintenance costs, no problem."

Zhao Liangping's abacus beads fell off, rolling to Zhou Andong's front along the telephone line.

"Ha!"

Zhou Andong laughed: "I thank you for your kindness, forget about the yacht, you'd better get me two speedboats, and consign them to me by the end of this month."

Zhao Liangping persuaded for a long time, but couldn't persuade Zhou Andong, so he could only sigh and agree.

"I will contact you today, there are many manufacturers in the south doing speedboats, it won't take until the end of the month, just these two or three days, and they can be sent to you."
