Chapter 109 Complying with Development Needs
Three days later, Elder Wendini led a group of elf magicians from the Azshara tribe, followed Xu Yi, Steele and his party back to the Principality of Standing.
Lisi and Linda took the children back to the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, while Xu Yi and the others stopped at Xinfei City on the way.
After several years of development, Xinfei City has developed from a blank space to a huge city covering an area of more than ten square kilometers, with a permanent population of more than 50,000 and a floating population of more than 300,000 at its lowest point.
The reason why the floating population is so exaggerated is that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce designed this place as a commodity distribution center.
Except for some of the goods sent from Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to other places through the port and transported by sea, all the rest of the goods will be transported to Xinfei City first, and then sent out through the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce cargo center set up here.
For this reason, the Headquarters of the Standing Principality Branch of the Ferson Transport Chamber of Commerce is also set up here, so it naturally turns this place into the logistics center of the Standing Principality. Except for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, other Chambers of Commerce in the Principality of Standing also do the same. The goods will also be delivered here in a centralized manner for further distribution.
Because of this advantage, many chambers of commerce in the Duchy of Standing simply set up factories near Xinfei City.
So after a few years, an industrial circle composed of various factories has formed around Xinfei City, which also makes the types and quantities of goods in Xinfei Chamber of Commerce extremely rich, naturally attracting more people to come.
Under such a virtuous circle, Xinfei City has become more and more prosperous, and now it can definitely be called the most prosperous city in the Principality of Standing. none of them.
Even if it is placed in these countries in the southwest corner of the Sainz continent. Xinfei City can still be regarded as one of the most prosperous cities. No worse than the capitals of several countries.
This time Elder Wendini came with the elf magicians in the clan, because he took a fancy to the prosperity of Xinfei City and planned to open a town with elf characteristics in Xinfei City.
The Principality of Standing is now completely under the control of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and Xinfei City is completely under the control of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. The Azshara tribe chose to open up the situation here, naturally because of the consideration of Elder Wentini.
In addition, it is very close to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and it is much easier to obtain the corresponding support from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
As for bringing a group of elf mages from the Azshara tribe, it was not for this matter. It is to cooperate with a plan that the New Moon Chamber of Commerce is about to launch here.
After obtaining the magical phantom projection technology from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the New Moon Chamber of Commerce, with the cooperation of the Azshara tribe, has expanded this technology in multiple directions, and it is no longer limited to just shooting phantom films.
This time, Steele plans to use Xinfei City as a pilot to open a New Moon Film and Television Entertainment City, which will mainly play phantom films, supplemented by phantom film shooting, production, and leasing, and can also meet the needs of various chambers of commerce. Advertising Promoting the demand for phantom films.
In addition, with the gradual maturity of the phantom projection technology of the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to expand research on phantom films, the magic array resonance technology research group under Akali. Combining the magic communication network technology with this technology, it is possible to perform phantom film projections over a long distance.
This is almost equivalent to the transmission of television signals on Earth. It can be said to be an epoch-making invention.
However, the world has no concrete concept of this brand-new entertainment method at all, so it can't cause too much sensation by just relying on the vernacular.
So Steele decided to invest in building such an audio-visual entertainment center in Xinfei City, using this brand-new technology to conduct real-time phantom video broadcasting experiments for all families who purchased magic phantom projectors.
If it goes well, according to Xu Yi's estimate, this New Moon Entertainment Center will most likely become the first TV station-like institution on this continent.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it will have a subversive impact on the entertainment industry of the entire Sainz continent.
Of course, the choice to open the first one in Xinfei City is also because Xinfei City can be regarded as the city with the most phantom magic projectors in the Sains Continent.
According to statistics, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has sold more than 30,000 phantom magic projectors to Xinfei City. As long as they are permanent residents who have settled in Xinfei City, almost every household has them.
Even the homes of those floating population will buy one as long as conditions permit.
The New Moon Chamber of Commerce began to tentatively carry out the phantom film rental business in Xinfei City the year before last. After two years of development, it has become one of the most popular entertainment programs in Xinfei City, and it is very popular.
The New Moon Chamber of Commerce's financial statement last year showed that a quarter of their total annual profit came from this phantom film rental business.
Combining the above factors, this led to Steele's determination to accept Xu Yi's suggestion and expand related businesses in Xinfei City.
This time, the elf mages of the Azshara tribe came here to cooperate with the plan of the New Moon Chamber of Commerce. They planned to increase the number of phantom movies as the first step, and then further popularize the phantom movie rental. New Moon Entertainment.
Of course, although the plans of both the Azshara Tribe and the New Moon Chamber of Commerce have something to do with Xu Yi, they are far from his main concern.
Xu Yi also came to Xinfei City, but because of another plan involving the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and even the entire Xinfei City.
"You want to move the cargo distribution center?" Ozil, the director of the Material Flow Center of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, looked at Xu Yi in astonishment, and couldn't believe his ears. "Master President, why...why did you do this? We are now doing everything smoothly in the cargo distribution center of Xinfei City, and there is no problem."
Xu Yi smiled, stretched out his hand and pressed it down, signaling him to calm down, then looked around at the people in the conference room, and said: "I don't think there is anything wrong with your work, in fact, your work is very serious. Excellent. The annual shipments of the Chamber of Commerce are so huge, but you have maintained for so many years without any major accidents, which is not easy."
"Then... why did you do this, sir?" Cagnasso, the assistant to the CEO of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce sitting opposite Ozil, asked in wonder.
Because Kennard has other things to do. So today his assistant came to this meeting instead of Kennard.
But compared to Kennard's outspokenness in front of Xu Yi. He would naturally appear more cautious in front of Xu Yi.
"It's very simple. Because if it's just a new flying city, it can no longer meet the current needs." Xu Yidao.
Everyone in the conference room looked at each other.
Ozil couldn't help but said: "My lord, Xinfei City has completed its tasks very well every year. Do you think there are any shortcomings?"
"As I said just now, this is not your problem, but Xinfei City itself, or the geographical location of Xinfei City, determines that it cannot meet the development needs of our chamber of commerce at this stage."
Finish this sentence. Xu Yi got up and went to the huge Sainz map hanging on the wall of the meeting room.
There is an unwritten rule within the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, that is, a map of Sainz's continent with the highest scale must be hung in all meeting rooms.
This was originally Xu Yi's preference, but later he asked for it more often, and it became a rule.
In fact, this meeting room is rarely used by people in the cargo distribution center, but there is still such a map.
"Look..." Xu Yi tapped the point on the map that marked Xinfei City. "Although Xinfei City is located in the middle of the Principality of Standing, the Principality of Standing is located in the southwest corner of the entire Sainz continent. It can almost be regarded as one of the most remote countries in the entire continent. Previously, the businesses of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce were mainly concentrated In these surrounding countries, it is not a big problem to set up Xinfei City as a cargo distribution center. But now?"
Everyone in the conference room focused their eyes on the map for a while, and couldn't help but nodded in unison.
The chairman is right, the position of the Principality of Standing is too far away. If the goal of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is only limited to the surrounding countries, then there is no problem.
But the president will grow up. In other words, the goal of the entire Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not just that, but to promote the goods of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to more countries in this continent, then the disadvantages of Xinfei City will be revealed.
In fact, Xu Yi didn't need to bring it up, these people in the cargo distribution center had already experienced it themselves.
In the past few years, it was nothing. In the past two years, the business of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has gradually expanded to the Falk Kingdom, the Maro Empire, the Candela Empire, and even further afield.
Regardless of sea transportation, if land transportation is adopted, the distance from Xinfei City to these countries is extremely long.
If under such circumstances, all the goods must be concentrated in Xinfei City before further distribution, the wasted time, material consumption and other costs will increase a lot for no reason.
For example, the Black Rice Wasteland is clearly in the northern part of the Principality of Standing, but the goods produced by the various factories of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on the Black Rice Wasteland have to go south to Xinfei City, and then go north to the Falk Kingdom, or now For the Maro Empire, which has a great demand for the goods of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is tantamount to going around an extra circle, which is obviously a waste.
"So in order to cope with the current development of our chamber of commerce, I decided to set up a more professional cargo delivery department within the chamber of commerce, not limited to Xinfei City. The main task of this department is to deliver goods in the most convenient way according to specific needs. , the fastest and most economical way to send to customers."
The eyes of everyone in Xinfei City Cargo Distribution Center in the conference room brightened up.
Doesn't the chairman's words mean that the Chamber of Commerce will greatly increase the importance it attaches to the cargo distribution center?
That's good news for everyone here, because if the Chamber of Commerce pays more attention to this department, the funds invested will naturally increase, and everyone's status and treatment in the Chamber of Commerce will also increase accordingly.
Xu Yi looked around and smiled slightly.
Of course he could see the small thoughts in everyone's hearts.
But he didn't care about that.
It's not a bad thing to have expectations or even ambitions, as this can easily translate into motivation.
With the development of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the delivery of goods should have been paid attention to, and Xu also needs the people in this department to have enough motivation to fulfill the increasingly large demand.
"As for the specific arrangement of this cargo distribution department, the Chamber of Commerce will conduct specific discussions and studies before..."
Xu Yi had just finished speaking, when the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open with a bang.
Everyone frowned and looked back, only to see a middle-aged man appearing panting at the door of the conference room.
After seeing this person clearly, everyone was taken aback.
The person who suddenly opened the door was Santico, the chairman of Xinfei City Management Association. His main job was to manage the affairs of Xinfei City. The look of fear.
Xu Yi couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Sandico, what's going on?"
Santico took a deep breath, walked quickly to Xu Yi's side, took out a crumpled piece of paper from doubt and handed it to Xu Yi.
"I will... the president will grow up, bad... something has gone wrong..." (to be continued...)
