Chapter 18 Imported Agricultural Machinery Setting up an agricultural machinery factory was not in Guo Yang's original the seed shop accidentally triggered the function of analyzing agricultural machinery while on Victor's farm. And according to the tips from the seed store, analyzing agricultural machinery can obtain relevant technical information and mechanical fragments. It’s just that there is no natural energy at present, so for the time being we can only collect and save the data and information of various agricultural machinery, and then analyze it when there is natural energy. Mechanical fragments can only be used to upgrade a certain agricultural machinery, but they should be the most convenient to use. Guo Yang even considered buying some second-hand agricultural machinery in China and then using the mechanical fragments. Although this would save money, wouldn't it be too wasteful? In addition to mechanical fragments, the seed store can also analyze technical data. In the long run, this should be the most valuable thing. After all, there are only a limited number of advanced agricultural machinery types in the world, and not every type of agricultural machinery can be parsed into mechanical fragments, so mechanical fragments are limited. This means that one day Guo Yang will no longer be able to obtain mechanical fragments. If Guo Yang wants to continuously obtain natural energy, he must continue to carry out large-scale ecological restoration projects, such as saline-alkali land, deserts, grasslands, rivers... Therefore, Guo Yang came up with the idea of investing in building an agricultural machinery manufacturing plant. Originally he was not in a hurry to do this, but now he happened to meet Yu Honghai in Hanover.
Although Yu Honghai’s agricultural machinery company in Weifang is not known for its production and research and development, marketing ability is also a very critical link! That's why he casually suggested setting up an agricultural machinery manufacturing plant together, but he didn't expect Yu Honghai's reaction to be beyond his expectations. Yu Honghai first looked at him in disbelief, then with deep suspicion, but then his eyes showed various complex emotions such as hesitation, hesitation, and confusion. Observing this scene, Guo Yang decided to add fuel to the fire. "Mr. Yu, I'm not making fun of you about the agricultural machinery manufacturing plant. I really have this plan, but the site of this plant must be in the northwest region. My investment center will be in the northwest for a long time in the future." "Besides, I only know a little bit about this, so I will definitely rely on you for the specific direction. As for the way of cooperation, we can discuss it if you are interested." The two eyes under Yu Honghai's thick eyebrows sometimes flashed with a helpless and painful look, and from time to time he was lost in daydreaming. Guo Yang didn't know what he was thinking about, so he could only sit there and wait for him to recover. After resting for a while, Yu Honghai looked up at Guo Yang. "Mr. Guo, thank you for your invitation, but I need to go back and think about this matter for a while. And to be honest, Mr. Guo has not yet come up with anything convincing, so words are not enough." Guo Yang smiled and was not angry. He could tell from Yu Honghai's body language that he had this idea, and that he should be a man with quite a story. However, due to various reasons and Guo Yang's constant "exaggeration", it is difficult for people to believe him. "As long as Mr. Guo has this intention, it's fine. The matter of the agricultural machinery factory is not urgent at this time." "Half a year! I will invite Mr. Yu to visit us in the northwest in half a year. Then we can talk about the agricultural machinery factory. Now let's talk about the current cooperation." "I want to import some agricultural machinery from abroad. Does Mr. Yu have any channels?" Yu Honghai also adjusted his mood at this time and regained his shrewd appearance. "I wonder what brand of agricultural machinery Mr. Guo has his eyes on?" "Claas, Fendt, John Deere, Colony..." Guo Yang said a long list of names, which made Yu Honghai's mouth twitch unconsciously.
This little brother still has the same style as always. These brands are currently the most expensive in the world. "Mr. Guo, domestically made farm machinery can still be used sometimes, and in your case, it is better to outsource the land consolidation project to the local agricultural reclamation group. The cost of setting up a construction team yourself is too high." Yu Honghai said leisurely. "I understand the reason. You can find the agricultural reclamation group for the initial farmland project, but you also need to set up your own farmland engineering team at the same time, and it will also be used in subsequent projects." Subsequent projects? Yu Honghai's face was full of disbelief. The 20 acres of saline-alkali land in the early stage were enough for you to play with. The profit from domestic forage grass is already low, and the initial investment cost is huge. This project will be considered a success if it does not fail. “That doesn’t necessarily mean we have to import agricultural machinery!” "Domestic agricultural machinery can also be used. Besides, Mr. Guo, your company is just starting out and you have a lot of money to spend. Domestic agricultural machinery is cheaper. You can even consider second-hand agricultural machinery." Yu Honghai's words did make sense, and they were also from his perspective. He had previously thought about buying second-hand agricultural machinery and then using the machinery fragments for upgrading and transformation. But after careful consideration, Guo Yang believed that imported agricultural machinery still had to be purchased. First, the quality of domestic agricultural machinery is indeed worrying. Although it can be improved by using mechanical fragments, the latest imported agricultural machinery can also be improved again. Secondly, seed stores can analyze relevant technical information, and if there are specific agricultural machinery for physical research, it can generate good research and development value in the future. In addition, in order to satisfy his own desires, he has long coveted these big guys. Besides, Yu Honghai must be aware of the gap between domestic agricultural machinery and foreign top brands... "Mr. Yu, could it be that your company doesn't have the qualifications to be the agent for these brands?" "Cough cough..." Yu Honghai touched his head awkwardly. "To be honest, Mr. Guo, of the brands you just mentioned, I only represent John Deere. John Deere entered the Chinese market relatively early and established its first factory in China in 97." Guo Yang was very familiar with John Deere. He had hired Deere to harvest cotton many times. At its peak, John Deere occupied 70% of the domestic cotton picker market and made annual profits in the country of more than billion yuan. But it has never produced cotton pickers domestically, only assembled them. Yu Honghai continued, "As for Clas, Fendt and Coroni, only Clas has plans to enter the Chinese market. I think we can find a way to buy it." "But I really can't help Font and Colony." Guo Yang still remembers that Fendt had no intention of entering the Chinese market until 2023. This may also be related to the fact that Fendt was acquired by the American AGCO as early as 1997. The few Fendt tractors that exist in the country are imported second-hand. Suddenly, Guo Yang thought of something. "Can we import used agricultural machinery through a third-party company? You should have some overseas trading companies that you are familiar with!" Hearing this, Yu Honghai's eyes lit up, but then he expressed his concerns. “The cost will definitely be much higher.” Guo Yang said proudly: "Money is not a problem."
"And I don't want more. You just need to help me get two of their latest high-horsepower tractors, and a set of supporting machinery such as deep plows and rotary tillers." "In addition, Claas also prepared two sets of machines for me that cover many aspects of forage cultivation, including mowing, silage harvesting, drying, raking, baling, film wrapping, transportation, and pelleting... Never mind, I'll just have one set." (End of this chapter)
