Thinking of this, Li Jin nodded slightly and said: "It can only be more serious, not the most serious."
"I can tell you responsibly that this time the West is definitely not just attacking our food security from the capital level. The most terrifying thing is from the spot level. This is a real fight with real swords and guns, without any skills.
The battle is all about foundation, and whoever has a weak foundation will lose, and lose in a mess."
"The world's four largest grain merchant groups, except for one in France, which ranks fourth, the top three are all American companies."
"Moreover, they have used this naked and brutal method to control the grain lifeline of other countries, not just once or twice, but every time they have tried and failed. As the state-owned enterprise with the largest official grain security reserve, our Grain Reserve Group will not be unclear about this."
Mr. Wu sighed lightly and said, "Yes, it is precisely because of this that the entire group is on standby."
Li Jin thought for a while and said: "The specific amount of grain reserves held by the Grain Reserve Group is a state secret. I don't want to ask, and you don't need to tell me, but I need you to know the details, that is, how much grain trade exceeds
War, will there be problems with the reserves group’s inventory?”
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Wu's face changed slightly.
Although this did not directly reveal the secrets of the grain storage group's reserves, it was close to the truth. She would never dare to say such things easily. Once it was revealed, it would be a big trouble if something went wrong.
Seemingly seeing Mr. Wu's danger, and seeming to have been prepared for it, Li Jin said directly: "It's okay if it's not convenient to answer directly. Then I'll ask in another way, if the three major grain merchant groups in China will
Can the grain storage group resist purchasing more than 100 million tons of staple grains at high prices?"
Mr. Wu asked in horror: "100 million tons!? Mr. Li, do you mean that they will directly clear out domestic inventories at high prices, raise grain prices, and then seize the domestic grain pricing power?"
"100 million tons is still a conservative estimate, and it is possible to go up to 120 million tons," Li Jin said.
Li Jin's words made both Mr. Wu and the two deputies she brought look in disbelief.
What is the concept of 100 million tons?
You must know that in the past 2000, China's total annual grain production was only 380 million tons.
It is now 2001, and although it has not completely passed yet, according to calculations by the Bureau of Statistics, the total annual grain production will not exceed 420 million tons.
Moreover, the total amount here is calculated including the total amount of all types of grains including wheat, rice, corn, etc. If it falls on a single rice and wheat, the amount will only be smaller.
A year's rations for the people of the whole country is a huge event no matter which country it is placed in.
And according to Li Jin, this is just a conservative estimate. If it really goes up to 120 million tons, then it is certain to exceed the national annual production volume.
With a tangled expression, Mr. Wu hesitated and struggled for a while, and then said: "Our maximum capacity is about 140 million tons. If it is more, there will be great risks. And according to regulations, no matter what the circumstances, we must
Retain part of the strategic grain reserve, which cannot be touched under any circumstances."
Li Jin is very satisfied...
He knew that the Grain Reserve Group's wealth would not be that thin.
And Li Jin is sure that even if the maximum capacity that Mr. Wu mentioned now is 140 million tons, there must still be a certain amount of space. Although this space will not be too big, there should be no problem if you bite the bullet and reach 150 million tons.
.
In the last life, the Grain Reserve Group finally defeated the three major grain merchant capitals in the United States. Even until the end, no one, including the three major grain merchants and the Chinese people, knew how deep the Grain Reserve Group's background was.
But this time, Li Jin finally touched the edge.
"I've counted."
Li Jin said with a smile on his face: "In this way, I will be more confident."
