The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 45 Someone cheated money
It is impossible to drink too much with students, and there will probably not be many days when you are forced to drink too much when traveling around.

After all, I was forced to drink every day in my previous life, and I have developed a rebellious mentality in this life. No one can force me to drink. Of course, I don’t force people to drink when I travel around.

But I don’t know if it can be realized, after all, the sages have said it thousands of years ago.

Zigong said: "I don't want people to do me any harm, and I also want nothing to do to others."

The Master said: "Gifts are beyond your reach."

In the past, I was very naive when traveling around. If you don’t mess with me, I won’t mess with you. It’s great if everyone can just go about their own business.

Only when I got to society did I realize that society doesn’t work like this.

Just like pigs, horses, cows and sheep, if I didn’t mess with anyone, why would people mess with me?

Nothing but benefits.

Many times, invisible conflicts of interests will push an individual to the opposite side, leading to a situation of mutual harm.

Because resources are limited, the simplest example is the college entrance examination, everyone is hurting each other.

Because there are few good schools, majors are limited.

In society, too, resources are limited and money is limited. Just because you don’t fight doesn’t mean others won’t fight.

When I was a student, it was relatively simple, and everyone basically had nothing to do with each other.

Many people cannot adapt after graduation because they want to be kind to others and others treat them like a pig, horse, cow or sheep.

When I think of students, I think of myself. Even though I have some wealth, if my thoughts have not changed, I will still be a toiler, driven by worldly interests, and will not be able to obtain true happiness in life.

As the truly free and easy people of old said.

Worldly etiquette is not designed by our generation.

There are also many upper-level rulers abroad who are the makers and interpreters of laws, but not the ones who abide by them.

While he was fascinated by the book, Zhou You was shocked by a phone call.
"Hey, who's there?" Zhou You's voice was a little unpleasant.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, I'm here to shoot a documentary. I'm going to co-produce a sci-fi alien documentary with a few friends. It's a big production. Are you interested?" The voice sounded a bit like Hong Kong and Taiwan. The taste of the edge

"Big production, what a big production." Zhou You curled his lips and smiled, and asked if there were any science fiction films, alien documentaries, etc. that you can access even if they exist?
"We are planning to go on location shoots all over the world. We have contacted the governments of various countries. We will visit the more famous places. The production cost is relatively high, tens of millions in total. I know that Mr. Zhou likes this, and I want you to invest 500 million in shares." I don’t know if I’m really stupid or pretending to be stupid, or I just think it’s stupid to travel around.

As soon as you heard it, you knew he was a liar, and the level of the liar was not high enough. He dared to ask for 500 million, so he probably really took Zhou You for granted.

"How do you know my contact information?" Zhou You was very curious.

Because he is currently here, he basically has no reputation in the film and television industry.

"I got it mainly through a friend at CCTV. I heard that you also invested in CCTV documentaries."

Thinking about it, the other channels are all private channels and cannot be disclosed. Even if they are revealed, they will be told in advance.

The only thing that can be revealed is CCTV. There are so many people in CCTV and there is a lot of turnover.

"I'm really sorry. Money has been tight recently, and I have other business to do." The other party was a little stunned, because according to rumors, shouldn't traveling around be a fool for people with money?

After hanging up the phone, Zhou You spat, "Damn it, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and there is always this kind of mouse droppings."

Unexpectedly, this was just the beginning. In the next few days, Zhouyou actually received several calls one after another, all hoping to invest in documentaries.

This finally achieved the purpose of traveling around. People came to him one after another. But what he didn't expect was that the first person he found was not the real documentary maker, but a liar.

It seems that scammers have the strongest desire to make money, and they also have the most sensitive sense of smell.

If you meet someone you are interested in, just chat a few more words.

Those who don't make good use of their words and talk too much about others will just express their gratitude and be insensitive.

When in doubt, ask Zhao Yun

"What's going on with Brother Yun? I've received a lot of calls from people now, asking me to invest in documentaries." Zhou You lay on the bed

"What are you talking about? Didn't I tell you last time? No one invests in this industry, especially independent documentaries. I didn't expect to get any money last time I went to your place." Zhao Yun laughed over there.
"I've met quite a few scammers in the past few days, and they always talk about scams." I feel helpless when traveling around.
"Besides, isn't this what you want? You didn't have channels before, but now I'm actively looking for you. Just take your time and choose." Zhao Yun almost said that you found it yourself.

"Well, when I talk about investing, I mainly mean investing in people like Brother Yun who are down-to-earth and really want to shoot, not those scammers. There are too many scammers nowadays and they are all-pervasive."

"That's because you don't see what kind of orientation is now? Money orientation! If you can make money, you are good. You laugh at the poor but not at the prostitutes." Zhao Yun said more and more seriously. "This is also the reason why I want to make a documentary. People's Values ​​are diverse and not just based on money.”

"Yes, this is what I think too, and this is also the main reason why I am willing to invest in documentaries. Everyone is looking forward, so what's the point? Can't everyone just put their money out and compare, right? It's a waste. What are you doing with that strength!" The two of them became more and more excited as they talked.

"Be smart, don't be fooled by others, and end up being called a fool with a lot of money. If you are not sure, ask me for reference. At least hang out in this circle and get to know some people." Zhao Yun finally warned.

Idealists will run into obstacles when they enter society.

Once you have the choice, there are more channels.

Although he met a few scammers, he did meet a few that he really wanted to film, but he had never heard of them. It’s normal that he hadn’t heard of them. Documentaries are very good, especially in the independent documentary industry. The threshold is very low and the scope of recording is very wide. It is impossible to read them all, so Zhou You selected a few who were interested and asked them to come here for interviews when they were free.

And as his influence gradually became too great, Zhou You wanted to specify the theme.

Find out which industry, category, and type you are interested in, and then take the initiative to search for projects, and invite people who are interested in it to come and play and shoot together.

Others love luxury cars and mansions, but these travels can only be described as so-so, so they don’t want to spend money on them.

It's a pity that he can only take pictures of the bottom layer, and at most the middle layer. He may not be able to take pictures of the higher ones, because that is a historical revelation.

If you are not careful, you will be killed.

Playing with your own little interests and hobbies is also a blessing in life.

Otherwise, being seen so happy is going to get fucked up.

People in the middle and lower classes cannot live in peace because they have to produce, generate resources, and create wealth.

It is okay and encouraged for upper-level people to lie flat, which means they withdraw from the competition for resources and stay away from the center of power.
