Chapter 161 Spread the influence

"I really have to do this." Zhang Xueling was a little hesitant after hearing Lin Tao's decision.

"Stay at the front line as a person and meet again in the future."

Doing business is like being a human being. You usually rarely do things at all and usually leave some room.

After all, in thirty years, Hebei and thirty years, no one is sure whether the younger brother will grow into the older brother in the future.

Therefore, Zhang Xueling felt that Lin Tao's move was a bit amazing.

However, Lin Tao has a different view.

"We have no way to interfere with the seeds, but I think it is necessary for farmers to know the origin of the seeds they use and the companies that cultivate these seeds, and what means have they used to seize them." Lin Tao said naturally, "I don't hide it from the fact that this is a means to suppress opponents to promote us, but the content we promote is well-documented and based on cases. Therefore, this is a righteous plot. If they want to refute our words, then use the opposite means and don't use this means to harm others. If they really do that and don't do such a thing on this land, I would rather apologize and compensate for the losses!"

Zhang Xueling understood.

Lin Tao is a farmer in his bones and naturally has no good impression of those guys who harm the interests of farmers.

If you are in the first day of the New Year, don’t blame others for being the fifteenth day of the New Year!

She had no objection anymore.

Soon, the same topic spread across sales covered by forty stores.

Regarding the international seed industry, selling soybean seeds in the Northeast is first given to farmers at cheap prices or even free. The seeds are indeed good, and farmers have a bumper harvest, so they quickly occupied the market.

But this kind of seed cannot reproduce itself. That is, they have to buy their seeds every year.

However, at this time, the seeds of other seed companies have been squeezed into the market by free seeds and exited the Northeast seed market. If farmers want to plant soybeans, they must purchase seeds from the international seed industry.

At this time, the international seed industry revealed their fangs: soybean seeds suddenly rose, and were sold at twice the price of seeds from domestic seed companies!

The salesperson, who was originally very enthusiastic, looked arrogant now: If you like to buy, don’t buy! If you don’t buy, you will have no other seeds!

This is the means of the international seed industry!

In fact, in the era of Internet development, such examples abound!

Many very famous brands in China are named national brands and have a very good reputation in various domestic industries.

However, these companies are often acquired when similar foreign-funded companies enter the domestic market. As for the reasons, some are acquired by foreign capital at high prices, some are caused by relevant departments for performance, and some are caused by other unspeakable reasons.

After these brands are acquired, most of them will be hidden in snow, and foreign investors will vigorously promote their brand products.

After a few years, the national brand products have been forgotten by everyone.

For example, the famous Tianfu Coke "event".

This is Coke, which once occupied 75 market share in the domestic market, and was once sold to the United States!

But after cooperating with Pepsi, the shadow of Tianfu Coke can no longer be found in the market.

Several generations have passed. Although the Tianfu Coke later regained the brand and formula, young people at that time were already accustomed to the two major cokes. How easy is Tianfu Coke to regain its market share?

These things were once exposed in later generations, which made many people clear.

What makes people speechless is that the "eight national brand beverages" back then were all missing from Coca-Cola and Pepsi!

But in this era, the circulation rate of information was much lower than that of later generations, and at most people got information from radio, TV and newspapers. How could this information about foreign investment acquisitions of national brands enter the ears of the public?

Since the official does not have this kind of channel, why not build one by itself?

Xingnong Agricultural Infossage Supermarket has such a huge sales covering thirty or forty counties, cities and townships. The agricultural infossage stores in these townships have natural advantages and are known to many farmers. The amount of information they spread will soon enter the ears of farmers.

With the publicity of these propagandists, it is basically impossible for the international seed industry to make such a wishful thinking!

In fact, what Lin Tao didn’t know was that Wuchenghua reported the situation in Xijiang to the boss of the International Seed Industry (Huaxia) Group. The senior executives there had already begun to plan to use free means at the end of the year!

Since it is cheap and cannot open the market, it is free!

Soon, when farmers who started sowing in the fields were resting and chatting, they talked about free soybean seeds in the Northeast.

In the big talk, everyone knows that small gains should not be taken.

But when I really encountered a free seed, I asked myself, can I bear it?

If it were in the past, it would be hard for everyone to say, but now I heard that foreign companies are so vicious, no one is a fool, and I will answer in my heart: I can’t use them!

Someone asked in confusion: "Isn't it enough to not buy their own? How can you really get out of the store of such a variety of subsidiaries?"

"Do you think the Northeast is the same as yours? That place is a bit like the Corps." A person who knows the inside story said: "It is all a large farmer, a kind of soybean that thousands of acres of soybeans, oh, that is, what we call soybeans! How many seeds do you need? How many tons are there? How many farmers in a county? How many seeds do you need? Can ordinary agricultural stores afford it? Can't big companies? Large companies can squeeze out free ones, and do not cultivate soybean seeds, or transfer soybean seeds to other savings. For example, now, are you waiting to plant them, and where can you buy them? Let other companies adjust them? Is it still a big question to make money?"

Once the truth is revealed, everyone understands it.

Some people called those guys sinister, but someone who understood the matter said: "This is not sinister. As the old saying goes, if you are greedy for small gains and suffer big losses, you will naturally not suffer any losses! There is no vain pie in the sky!"

Similar topics are slowly spread throughout the northern part of Western Xinjiang. Most farmers who farmed know that there is an international seed company that will use everyone's greed for small gains to squeeze out other seed companies and then sell their seeds at high prices.

“It’s really unethical.”

People who listen to this story often comment on this at the end and then finish it.

No one would have thought that such a thing would fall on their own.

But this incident has left a very deep impression on these people's minds.

Until one day, something similar happened suddenly...

The international seed industry usually does wholesale business and interacts with people from agricultural supplies stores. Now that the sowing season has passed, their focus is on the mainland, especially in the south where two seasons of crops can be sown.

Therefore, they are not clear about these common "rumors" in rural areas in northern Western Xinjiang.
