Chapter 1448: No Animal Performances But Put On Human Performances
February 4th, Monday…
Tengda’s president’s office door opened apprehensively.
“Boss Pei.”
Pei Qian looked up. “Eh? You’re here. Have you settled everything at home?”
“They’ve all settled down. I hired two people to help my father manage the zoo. They also managed to convince my father. That was why I came.”
It could be heard that at the beginning, Teng Yingjiu was quite resistant to moving the entire zoo to Jingzhou.
Perhaps it was partly because he was reluctant to part with the zoo and did not want to see the place that he had spent most of his life on become empty. On the other hand, he was worried if the animals were doing well after moving away and would not be able to adapt to the big city.
However, Old Master agreed after Tang Xinzhang explained the details of the moving to him.
That was because Tuan Yingjiu knew very well that the zoo was getting worse. The animals might be able to fill their stomachs under his care but the living environment and conditions were still very different from some large-scale zoos.
What’s more, since Boss Pei had asked Tang Xinzhang to be the director of the zoo, he did not have to worry about the animals suffering.
These animals might be the flesh and blood of Teng Yingjiu and she was reluctant to part with them. However, since moving home could obtain better conditions, it was not impossible.
Pei Qian nodded and handed the printed plan over. “This is the preliminary plan for the zoo. Take a look.”
Tuan Xinzhang took it and quickly scanned it.
“A warm and cold pet paradise?”
Confusion appeared on her face. One look and she could tell that the name of the zoo was rather inappropriate.
Most of the other zoos were named after places, such as Jingzhou Zoo. The benefit of this name was that one would roughly know where the zoos were.
Of course, there were also some indoor zoos that would name better and easier to remember. These names might sound varied, but at the very least, they would be catchy and would be more in line with the zoos’ positioning.
However, he had to understand the meaning behind this.
He felt that this idiom did not match the zoo!
It might be a neutral term but he felt that it was more or less inappropriate to use it in this place. It was only slightly better than “Skylark Pet Paradise”.
However, he looked up at Boss Pei and realized that Boss Pei seemed to like this name. He could not say much and could only continue watching.
After all, he did not think that he had more say than Boss Pei in naming.
Pei Qian could not help but nod slightly.
Yes, very good. Not asking too much was the first basic quality of an outstanding person-in-charge. Tang Xinzhang had finally reached the standards.
Why did he come up with such a name?
Obviously, it had two layers of meaning.
The first layer of meaning was for tourists to know their own fates.
This zoo looked good on the surface. It took up a lot of space and had a good location, but there was nothing fun inside!
It was just like the famous dishes’ look clear and eat blurriness’. The zoo was just an empty shell. No one would be able to play it well. Thus, tourists would know their own coldness and warmth.
The second layer of meaning was self-evident to Boss Pei.
Just as everyone thought that the zoo had screwed up, failed, and felt sorry for Boss Pei, they did not know that Pei Qian had already earned a lot from the loss of the zoo. He was secretly happy. Thus, he knew his own situation.
Look at the name – how fitting!
As for whether this strange name would be able to dissuade tourists or not, Pei Qian did not have much hope. If it could dissuade tourists, so be it. If it could not dissuade tourists, so be it. In any case, this zoo was incurring losses based on its own ability.
The more he read, the more surprised he looked.
What kind of strange rules were these?
It was understandable for Tengda to be rich. However, it did not raise any rare animals even though it invested so much in a huge zoo. Instead, it fought to the death on more common animals. What logic was that?
The layout of the park was also incompatible with the basic rules of ordinary zoos. The entire park looked huge and empty, giving tourists a lot of rest space. It was as if they were afraid that they would finish touring the park in one breath. They could not wait for them to be annoyed by the two projects and turn around to go home.
The only thing that made sense to him was the interactive experience. This seemed to be a very novel point.

Some animals warm up easier to humans. Naturally, they could interact under the guidance of the staff.
Take the North Pole foxes for example. They were family by nature. Many Arctic foxes in the zoo would look at tourists passionately through the glass and stick their tongues out. They would follow tourists from one end to the other, just like domestic pet dogs.
However, it was not suitable to be kept as a pet because it was relatively low in intelligence and had a larger taste. The faeces were not easy to deal with.
In fact, apart from cats and dogs, there were many animals in the world that had family. However, only cats and dogs had become mainstream pets. That was precisely because other rare pets more or less had some unacceptable points.
However, this problem did not exist in zoos.
There would be more space for these animals to move around. There would be special staffs to provide scientific food and education. Tourists could skip the irksome dung picking stage and just play with them.
What’s more, if he could add some beast taming performances, perhaps this could become a unique gimmick?
“Boss Pei, I have a small problem. There doesn’t seem to be any beast taming performances written on it? I think there are breeders, vet, and other classes. Why isn’t there a beast tamer? If there is a beast tamer, it should be able to further increase the competitiveness of the zoo and cooperate better with the current interactive experience.”
Pei Qian could not help but frown.
Eh? Beast tamer?
“That won’t do!” Pei Qian blurted out.
“Why?” ” Tuan Xinzhang was stunned
Their family’s original private zoo did not have any animal training performances, but that was because neither father nor son knew how to tame it.
Beast taming had to first have a suitable animal, followed by a scientific method. However, once it succeeded, it would greatly increase the popularity of the entire zoo.
Many zoos would arrange for beast taming performances during golden times. The venue would often be crowded and very popular.
Before this, he had thought about how to salvage the situation of this zoo that was on the verge of bankruptcy. One of the ways was to perform beast taming. However, he did not know how to tame it and the cost of hiring a beast tamer was too high. He could not afford it and had no conditions. He could only give up.
However, since Boss Pei had already spent so much money to open a zoo, wouldn’t it be normal for him to hire a few beast tamers to perform beast taming?
Pei Qian cleared his throat and explained, “What should I say about beast taming performance? It depends on the individual.”
“No matter whether we raise pets, farm or open a zoo, it is undoubtedly to satisfy ourselves.”
“If you want to give animals the best living environment, you should seal a mountain and let animals run freely in the mountains instead of keeping them in a circle.”
“However, it would be unrealistic to turn all of the places into natural protection zones. That’s because human society has to continue to develop, and many people have not left poverty. We have to solve the survival of humans first.”
“I also don’t agree with the behavior of treating animals as their own father and stopping cars on the high-speed road to save their father. That’s very hypocritical. Humans protect animals for themselves. There’s nothing to be ashamed to admit.”
“Therefore, I think that the existence of the zoo is of course necessary. It can allow people in the city to not only see photos or videos of wild animals through the screen, but also be able to interact with animals up close. At the same time, protecting animals in the zoo would prevent some animals from becoming extinct. They might even obtain better living conditions than in the wild. These are the functions of the zoo.”
“However… I don’t think the beast taming performance is part of it.”
“If it was some naturally smart animals who completed their training by feeding, that would be fine. However, if it was through the lash of the whip that forced some animals to do things that went against their nature just to create a gimmick and attract more people to watch, I would feel that it was very unnecessary.”
“I don’t care what other zoos do, but I don’t want that to happen in our zoo.”
“If we have to perform… we can let the employees of the zoo perform on stage! At the very least, we can increase their salary.”
Pei Qian paused after he finished speaking because he had accidentally said what he was thinking.
Of course, not forcing these animals to do things that were against their nature was his true thoughts. However, another important reason was that he felt that this was too profitable.
How much would it cost to hire a beast tamer?
How much money would a beast tamer earn if he were to produce a popular program?
The key was that Pei Qian could not add money even if he wanted to. He could not possibly give the bonus to these animals, right?
A raise for a beast tamer was not much.
This was definitely not a good deal! If he was not careful, he would make a lot of money. The entire zoo might even become popular!
Thus, Pei Qian decided to stop these beast training performances. It was fine to use a more gentle and natural method to train dogs, but there was no need to use whipping to force training.
If he had to perform, he would get the employees of the zoo to perform on stage.
He could perform anything. What talents could he have if he worked in the zoo?
Then, he would distribute more prizes to the performers.
Let animals perform. No, that would be oppressing animals. However, letting people perform would be alright because they could pay more. Giving more money would not be oppression.
Yan Xinzhang scratched his head, feeling that this zoo was a little strange.
However, he was too embarrassed to question Boss Pei’s decision. He could only nod and do as he was told..
