Chapter 159: Vivi Soy Milk "beep……"When the busy tone came, Xue Liqiang smiled, which was rare. "Jia He is probably looking up information. There should be results soon. There is no need to rush." Sitting on the black leather sofa opposite was a middle-aged man in a suit and tie with a solemn expression. Chairman of the Board of Directors of Weiwei Group: Jia Liang. "You don't have to worry. I have to make a decision as soon as possible. The soybean price is low now, and the supply of raw materials is not optimistic. The sooner the production base is built, the safer it will be." After a pause, Jia Liang asked doubtfully, "Why do you want to bring Jiahe in? With the strength of Jiusan Group, it shouldn't be difficult to build a new planting base!" A momentary sneer appeared on Xue Liqiang's lips. Without Jiahe, how could Jiusan bring along Weiwei, a burden? "Jiahe Group is very powerful and has accumulated strong strength in planting, soil improvement, seed industry, etc." "In particular, the soybean seed Tiandou No. 1 that they are about to launch on the market will be our weapon against genetically modified soybeans." "Is it that powerful?" Jia Liang raised his eyebrows, not quite believing it.
In the past few years, Weiwei Group has been pursuing diversified development. It has successively entered the fields of ham sausage, salad oil and black sesame paste, but was suppressed by Shuanghui, Golden Dragon Fish and Southern respectively. Subsequently, it invested huge amounts of money into the dairy industry, building milk sources, forage bases and plastic bottle milk production lines, controlling stakes in nearly 10 dairy companies, and continuously purchasing CCTV advertisements. The final result is that the prospects for the dairy industry remain uncertain, and the soy milk industry is shrinking due to the rapid development of milk. Recently, we decided to adjust our strategy and return to the soy milk industry. But under the impact of American genetically modified soybeans, domestic soybeans are facing difficulties. Soybean farmers are no longer willing to grow soybeans. Xue Liqiang smiled and said, "It's amazing. Last year, there was news that the yield of Tiandou No. 1 reached 480 kilograms per mu. Now the yield of soybeans in Northeast China and genetically modified soybeans in the United States is around 300 kilograms per mu." "If we add the cost saved by Jiahe on land improvement, we will have the advantage in fighting against genetically modified soybeans!" Jia Liang thought for a moment and said, "Actually, there is another way. We can sign contracts with soybean farmers and protect their prices." Xue Liqiang frowned. Jiusan agreed to cooperate with Weiwei because it took into account the huge pressure of subsidies on soybean farmers. "I still prefer to involve the Golden Harvest Group." Xue Liqiang thought again of the bloody disputes in the futures market last year. If he had not read Guo Yang's article, the situation faced by Jiusan Grain and Oil would have been even more difficult. Last year, the country imported more than 1500 million tons of genetically modified soybeans, accounting for at least 85% of soybean production. Due to the low-price dumping of imported soybeans, domestic soybean prices also fell to the bottom. The price of yuan per catty has led soybean farmers to plant corn, which brings higher income in the same crop season. What is most worrying is that the sentiment to grow genetically modified soybeans is also spreading in the country. Coincidentally, the safety issue of genetically modified food caused heated discussion again at this time, and Jiusan cooking oil became a hot seller in major cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. Not just domestically.
Fierce debates on GMOs have also broken out in Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea. But in 2003, the United States joined forces with Canada, Argentina, Australia and other countries to challenge the EU's ban on GMOs, and the president came out to lobby. Eventually, the EU's GMO regulations were also adjusted. Genetically modified soybeans and corn have gradually entered markets in Europe, Japan, South Korea and other countries. People’s demand for non-GMO soy products has skyrocketed! Foreign businessmen continue to approach Jiusan Grain and Oil. As he told Guo Yang, the market demand is huge, but domestic soybean farmers have little willingness to grow soybeans, and the raw materials are facing serious threats. In the short term, companies can subsidize soybean farmers, but over the long term, no one can bear it. Xue Liqiang's intuition told him that he needed to turn the tide. Jiahe is the best partner! …… Nine springs. The earth is rolling with heat waves under the scorching sun. The office was extremely cool and comfortable. The people from Jiahe Strategic Investment Department were busy looking up information for the whole morning. Xie Shijie handed the summarized information to Guo Yang while speaking. "After the soybean futures market turmoil last year, although many soybean processing companies that hedged their futures survived, the trend of importing genetically modified soybeans has not slowed down." "The price of imported soybeans has dropped to yuan per kilogram. Many domestic soybean farmers sold at a loss last year, so they are unwilling to plant this year." Guo Yang listened and flipped through the information. " yuan per kilogram, which means the income per mu is only 450 yuan. Can American soybean farmers make money?" Xie Shijie said: "There are high subsidies." Guo Yang also found some information. After the US Agricultural Act came into effect in 2002, US subsidies for soybeans reached 2004 billion US dollars in ! On average, the subsidy per mu is nearly 80 yuan! Genetically modified soybeans already have cost advantages, and with subsidies, they can still make money. As for domestic soybeans, soybeans from Heilongjiang Province are also produced on a large scale, so the cost is relatively low, but the cost per mu is still 280 yuan. Taking into account the land price and transportation costs, there is really no way out! This is a crazy subsidy! How can domestic soybean farmers withstand it! It is estimated that if it is delayed for another one or two years, the national reserve plan will have to be launched. Xie Shijie continued, "In addition, we also found out that Jiusan Grain and Oil has recently been inclined to sign non-GMO soybean orders with Japan, South Korea, and Europe." "It seems that Jiusan Grain and Oil wants to work hard to improve its internal strength and survive this crisis." Guo Yang thought about it and realized that the Jiusan Group was jointly funded by 11 farms under the Jiusan Branch of the Heilongjiang Provincial Agricultural Reclamation Bureau and the Jiusan Oil and Fat Chemical Plant. Thirty or forty soybean planting bases have been cultivated, covering an area of more than 2000 million mu of cultivated land. For such a large area, the Jiusan Group has to subsidize farmers' planting and transportation costs.
I think Xue Liqiang felt the pressure and happened to know about Tiandou No. 1. Only then did the idea of cooperation come about. Guo Yang guessed that he had guessed the other party's thoughts. "Let's make an appointment with the Jiusan Group for the trip after we go to Shandong Province." Xie Shijie looked at the recent work schedule and said, "The second crop of grass in Jinta and the first crop of grass in Wuyuan will be cut before the end of the month. Should we wait a little longer?" Guo Yang thought about it and decided that he had to go to Shandong Province. If he didn't go to see the seed production of his trump card Tiandou No. 1 with his own eyes, he would not have the confidence to talk about it with others. "No need to wait, you can stay in Jiuquan and let me know if there is any situation." "Then I'll take this opportunity to find you a secretary and a full-time driver and bodyguard. Old Song will stay in the company to drive in the future?" Xie Shijie said. "can." After all, Mr. Song is a little older and has a family, so he has no problem driving, but he is not so good in other aspects. As a result, he, although a boss, lives like a social animal, with no one preparing breakfast for him. Jiahe’s pattern is almost lost! After sorting out some things for a while, Xie Shijie finally felt like joking: "Secretary, do you want me to find you a beautiful girl?" Guo Yang glanced at him and said unhappily: "Why don't you just find someone who can do it!" Xie Shijie blinked. Capable? Do you want a man? Jiahe is not a state-owned enterprise, wouldn’t it be better to have a female secretary? Guo Yang sent Xie Shijie away, and then called Xue Liqiang, "Mr. Xue, I'm going to Shandong Province the day after tomorrow. Where do you think we can meet?" "Let's go to the capital." Xue Liqiang added. "By the way, it was the Weiwei Group that proposed the cooperation in building the base. Jiu San mainly wanted to cooperate with Jia He on soil improvement and seeds." Guo Yang hesitated for a moment before he realized that Jiusan had proposed cooperation in building a base, and he thought it was an improvement. But what about Weiwei Group? VV soy milk? It seems to involve the dairy industry as well! This old bitch only speaks half the truth, right? "Then see you in the capital." I just happened to go to Weiguang Company to have a look. After setting the itinerary, Guo Yang was ready to leave work early. Before leaving, he met with a few managers for tea and to discuss work. When he was leaving the office, he ran into Qu Yang. "Did Yu Xiaochuan ask you for someone?" Qu Yang was stunned for a moment, "Ah...No, what's the matter?" Guo Yang looked up helplessly and took a deep breath. His confidants were very capable, but each one was more arrogant than the other. It’s not that easy to investigate the issue of inferior milk powder! The milk vendors who do this kind of thing are all experienced people, and they are cruel and ruthless!
Muhe's sales channels are mainly overseas, while Tianhe's sales outlets are spread across the country, reaching deep into towns and villages, and are well-staffed. Even if they were discovered during the investigation, they would still be no match for each other in the fight! Yu Xiaochuan, after the grass sold well, the monkey's tail started to stick up a little. Guo Yang said: "Let's have dinner together tonight and invite the main leaders of Tianhe and Muhe, and then we can talk about it together!" In the evening, after having a good meal and a good drink. Guo Yang and Qu Yang were drinking tea in the living room, and they called Yu Xiaochuan while drunk. He started to scold her, "Yu Xiaochuan, you can't handle it, you can't settle it, you just keep it in your hands and wait for it to lay eggs!" Yu Xiaochuan was a little confused. He was supervising the installation of equipment such as forage disinfection tanks in Wuyuan, and it seemed that it would be completed in two days, so why was he suddenly scolded? "Boss, is there anything you haven't done yet?" "Something for you to investigate." Yu Xiaochuan reacted, but thinking of those tragic cases, a little worry appeared on his face, "Boss, this matter has been resolved." "Ok?" "We have already got hold of quite a few cases, but there are still a few milk vendors and companies that we haven't caught yet, and we're afraid of alerting the criminals." Guo Yang pondered for a moment and made the arrangements directly, "Qu Yang is right next to me, give him the contact information of your brother." At the end, he added: "Tianhe and Muhe are a family." (End of this chapter)
