Blackstone Code Chapter 141: There are more ways than difficulties!

How to make something valuable that may not be valuable?

Perhaps many ordinary people, including those who have just become businessmen, will use many practical methods to turn this thing into a commodity and then become valuable.

One of the most common examples is to increase the added value of something that is not valuable in itself, and use the added value to justify its expensiveness.

For example, paleontological fossils inlaid with gold and precious gems are very widely distributed in this world, almost everywhere.

The first people who discovered the fossils did sell them for a good price, but as people discovered that as long as they had a **** in hand, choose a suitable place, and dig down, as long as luck is not When it is too bad to dig some fossils, the price of paleontological fossils begins to plummet rapidly.

From being praised as "historical memory", to "historical pages", and finally to "historical garbage", this process has not evolved for a long time.

But among them, there are also some examples of going against the trend. Some people will choose some relatively complete and beautiful fossils, and then inlay some gems, gold or other precious accessories according to the outline.

They made these fossils inlaid with expensive materials look shiny, people suddenly linked it to wealth, plus a fake outrageous story, so these fossils were sold for added value high price.

This is the way that many people will choose - if you want to sell a worthless thing for a price, let the added value work, and many semi-official authorities will also use the added value as an example to come Popularize some successful studies that may not be successful.

But for capitalists, to make a worthless thing valuable, it only needs to hype the conceptual value of this thing that does not exist at all, but there is a premise that it must be rare.

The rarity here is not strictly "rare", "uncommon", "orphan", etc. This kind of rarity is just a concept.

A successful capitalist can find a "rare item" out of a million pieces of the same commodity, such as a special color change, a small flaw, something that is somewhat different from the other, All can make this commodity a rare commodity, and then heat it up.

This commodity will soon be appearing wildly in the newspapers and public opinion, and each appearance is accompanied by its ever-expanding value.

If it's just pure merchandise, auctions can be a good way to go, some merchandise can always be a miracle at auction, which can create some demand, and then they'll wait, waiting for the last idiot to take over. .

The situation is the same now. These businessmen who have made the decision to invest in the Interstellar Trading Company under Lynch's name have already started to heat up the company before they have officially become investors.

Lynch gave them a valuation of 50 million, so how can they ensure that they will not lose money after investing?

In fact, it is very simple. If the value of this company in people's eyes exceeds 500 million or even 10 billion, then no matter how they invest, they will not lose money, but will make a lot of money.

But this requires a process, which is also the last situation that many entrepreneurs with ideals do not want to face. The operation and operation of capital will destroy their dreams, because compared to dreams, the game of numbers and concepts is too much Happy.

In just one day, the potential and market value assessment of Interstellar Trading Company has risen from 50 million to 70 million by Lynch's unwarranted statement. With the subsequent large-scale construction, this number may be will continue to rise.

Some people must be well aware that this company is not worth that much money, but as a qualified businessman or speculator, they don't mind taking part in this game, just like in the financial market now, not every participant Don't know what happened.

And some people who really don't know what's going on in this company may think they're smart to observe for a while, and then consider entering when they're sure it's real and has potential.

But when they think about it and make a decision, it is often the end of the situation.

The issue of the mayor is also a little bit tempting. He didn't know that a small company like Lynch could estimate so much money. If he had known earlier, he might have made more money.

Of course, the federal law of Baylor does not stipulate that politicians must and must not engage in any investment behavior, but the review system will be stricter than ordinary people, but most politicians will not end in person, they will There are agents.

"I have a nephew who is very interested in your company..." His Excellency the Mayor laughed, "Are young people like this, full of energy, then they don't know what to face in the future ?"

It seems like a kind of emotion, but it is more to express his attitude through these words. How could someone like Lynch who has been tempered for many years not be able to read it?

He also shook off the napkin and spread it on his lap, seemingly casually saying, "Is there his contact information? Maybe we young people will have a common language." He spread the napkin on his lap. After that, he raised his head and looked directly at His Excellency the Mayor, "Of course we also need the help of the elders' experience and experience, after all, we are still young..."

The two looked at each other for about three to five seconds. They confirmed through their eyes that there was no misunderstanding between them. His Excellency the Mayor put a black business card on the table and pushed it over.

Immediately afterwards, the conversation took a sharp turn to other things.

"Have you heard any rumors about the relationship with the Ristoan Group recently?" His Excellency the Mayor used a very common sentence as the next introduction, and Lynch nodded his answer in the affirmative.

During this period of time, no one did not know about this matter, and even Lynch felt that the attitude of the mayor and the governor was a bit too direct and not artistic enough. They could solve the current problem in another way, but they did not didn't do that.

Seeing Lynch nodding, His Excellency the Mayor's expression changed a little, and he became a little helpless. He sighed, "Actually, the situation is not optimistic, Neo has been contacting the Conservative Party, you know ...", he stretched out his index finger and twirled his ear, "There will be some connection between us."

His consciousness is that there is information passing between the Federal Progressive Party and the Federal Conservative Party. This is also normal. After all, the Baylor Federation is governed by three parties. Although the Federal Socialist Party is often the same as the transparent people, they It does exist.

This kind of connection, or communication, is very necessary to stabilize the political situation of the entire federation. This is no longer the age of empires. People have come out of ignorant and feudal rule, and they will no longer commit the crimes of those rulers in the past. wrong.

When Neo contacted the Conservative Party, the news was destined to be revealed, including the conditions of the Conservative Party for Neo to switch camps, all of which have been learned by Your Excellency the Mayor and Your Excellency the Governor.

That's why the governor sent people to support the mayor, and it's not for nothing.

"Actually I don't care if Neo and Ristoan are able to stay in Sabine, I never care about that, I care about how many people in this city are facing no jobs, difficulties , hunger, etc."

"Shameful Neo and his company use these people as bargaining chips with the government. I will not compromise, for my citizens!"

If another impassioned symphony with some tragic symphony can be played at this time, maybe Mayor Langdon has the opportunity to wait for this year's Augustine screen awards ceremony, and at least there is a nomination for the best actor.

"My biggest headache right now is how to solve the tens of thousands of jobs if they do leave..." He said, his eyes always on Lynch.

When he heard that Lynch's company was valued at 70 million at noon today, he realized that maybe this was a bargaining chip that could be used. The value of 70 million needs to be created by people, it is impossible It was born out of thin air, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the scrutiny of various departments and the people.

Since someone needs to create these values, then Lynch, who may have solved 500 jobs for the mayor when his worth is less than 1 million, can do it for him when his worth exceeds 70 million Solve more jobs?

Not to mention 70 jobs for 500 people, there must be at least 35 jobs for 500 people, right?

On the face of that **** nephew~IndoMTL.com~ Twenty five hundred jobs, there's gotta be, right?

Lynch didn't answer, which is really not easy to answer. He is very good at describing a grand blueprint for the future for others, but the mayor asked him to come up with practical things as soon as he opened his mouth.

The salary of 1,000 people is 200,000 per month. If he employs 5,000 people, he will send 1 million every month just to pay wages. Even if his company is valued at 100 million, it will be I can't afford them toss like this a few times.

Lynch's silence made the mayor realize that he couldn't fully treat Lynch as a young man. If Lynch said that he couldn't do it, or that he could solve a part of it, these could be used by the mayor.

But it's not easy to deal with silence. If you say he doesn't agree, he doesn't say it directly, but you ask him to agree, and he doesn't nod.

After being silent for a few seconds, he also changed his words to show his attitude, "You are all businessmen, maybe you can understand the reasons for them more clearly. In the current process of starting a business, what kind of difficulties have you faced?"

Lynch raised his eyebrows and showed some smiles on his face, which soon became brighter, "Your Excellency Mayor, I have faced many difficulties, but you know, I am a businessman with a sense of social responsibility. , some I can solve, but some I can't solve, maybe you can give me some constructive advice?!"

The mayor did not accept the call immediately, but just thought, "We can discuss it."
