From a professional standpoint, there may be different opinions on this "King of War".
A line of Nicholas Cage in the film made me think deeply. It probably means: "You can sell weapons to many warlords, but remember not to participate in any abnormal wars." Since my profession belongs to the consulting industry, I often encounter the process of customer consulting, and the scale of the scale and the depth of the service are not clear, and the boundaries of the service are often blurred. It's like Nicholas Cage just sells arms to warlords, but doesn't fight with warlords with guns. The products of the consulting industry are consulting services. To put it bluntly, they educate customers on how to manage, how to operate, how to market, and so on. However, if as a consulting company educates its clients, it is also necessary to personally “complete” the next step for the client. It is the same as helping the warlord with a weapon in the movie plot. This is what Nicholas Cage said. The fundamental and the principle of survival.
Thinking of "The King of War" from different angles
1 King of Commerce
Nicholas Cage, who is in the arms business, is a competent "businessman" who keenly judges the relationship between market supply and demand, has established the supply chain and the market with enough courage, and has expanded the transaction scale enough. This is the foundation of any business—discovering needs.
2 The roots of the war
From ancient times to the present, the war has never ceased. The conflict of interests between people, the battle for honor between groups, the battle for territory between clans, political struggles between countries, and conflicts of beliefs between different civilizations are undoubtedly the sparks of war. Cable. If the animal kingdom uses the brutal method of fighting, preying, the weak and the flesh, then humans claim to be the most advanced creatures on the surface, and they will invest in research and development of weapons and ammunition to solve the problem in a war that hurts both sides under the premise of worrying about food and clothing. I don't know whether it is the definition of the factory setting of genes or the hopelessness of human stubborn temperament.
3 It is reasonable when it happens, and it is reasonable because there is an interest
After watching "King of War", you can realize that a small number of people who have benefited from the war do not want the war to end. This reminds me of a theory. If the government introduces a reward of 200 yuan for hunting a pheasant, is it a motivation for people with hunting ability, but in fact such a policy will not only reduce the number of pheasants, but will increase it. The reason is simple. Instead of slaughtering one and receiving 200 yuan once, why not breed and breed in captivity, so as to continuously receive more bonuses? This is the driving interest, and this is the existence of reasonableness.
4 What if Urey understands finance?
This part is an extension of his idealistic thoughts. Even if Yu Rui is an excellent businessman, his essence is still business thinking. If he changes his way of thinking to financialize this weapon business with the warlord’s struggle, I think this movie The film may be more exciting.
Fundraising: Based on Uray’s basic situation of weapon supply chain resources and market-side customer groups, if a certain SKU item (AK47) is opened as futures, it can be used for advance payment by warlords, and the goods can be obtained at the futures price when they expire, or to After the period, the funds will be redeemed based on the market increase of principal + income. A considerable cash flow will be deposited. To put it bluntly, there will be a lot of cash in hand.
Investment targets: Mass purchase of AK47s in the market to drive up prices and deliver them after retail sales, win or lose in warlord battles, buy up or go short, well, I'm inadvertently planning to continue. . .
