The fuel and labor costs for six fishing boats for a day add up to hundreds of thousands.
If the operation is not good and the operation is messed up, the calculation will be based on the income of just over 100,000 per day for normal operations. If calculated this way, if the operation is not done well, the loss will be even greater.
Setting up that Phalanx was very troublesome and took several days.
Before I knew it, it was evening and it was getting dark.
Yang Xun and the others also woke up, walked out, greeted them, took out cigarettes and handed one to each of them.
Zhou Sheng looked at the time, took out a piece of defrosted beef, and started making dinner.
Zhou Jianguo lit a cigarette and looked at Chen Yuan: "What do you think about setting up a Phalanx here?"
"I have never placed a Phalanx before, so I don't know the effect. Also, where should the Phalanx be placed?"
"Where do you think it should be placed?"
They are a member of the fleet. I don’t know if Qian Degui has ever done Phalanx. The rest of them probably haven’t done it.
"I've also owned a longline fishing boat before." Zhou Jianguo nodded: "What's wrong, not sure?"
Zhou Jianguo smiled and waved his hand: "It's no trouble. You have set up a Phalanx formation. If there are still many fish schools when the floats are collected, just sell me a few positions."
Chen Yuan and Zhou Jianguo chatted for a long time.
"Have you ever seen Phalanx?" Chen Yuan asked.
"You can't say that." Zhou Jianguo took a sip of wine and ate a piece of beef: "This beef is pretty good."
Zhou Jianguo shook his head: "Not very good. This location is between two atolls. Nowadays, fishing boats are gathered outside the atolls to wait for the fishing season. The location you chose is equivalent to being surrounded. How many fish can come over?
It’s really hard to say.”
"Two percent. After deducting all costs, 2% is shared by everyone on the ship. I estimate that it can account for 0.2%." Zhou Jianguo smiled. These are not secrets and can be said.
"I've never done it before, so I don't know what I'm doing," Chen Yuan said.
Zhou Sheng chuckled and said, "Does it have the same flavor as before?"
"That's it. Then this place would be a good place to put a rogue hook?"
"You have also stayed in Dongjiang before, but you still don't know the nature of urine here." Zhou Jianguo looked at Chen Yuan: "My salary plus dividends, bonuses... That's more than 300,000 a year. I used to live in Chile
When I was there, I heard that the annual salary of ordinary workers on your ship reached more than 300,000 yuan?"
When retracting the pontoons, in addition to releasing more fish and trying to catch as many fish as possible, sea seine boats can come over to set up fish aggregators to catch all the fish in one catch.
Zhou Jianguo gave a thumbs up and said 'hmm': "Find a fixed area, preferably with small ocean currents intersecting."
But, it depends on the boss. There are generous bosses, some stingy bosses, and even black-hearted bosses...
"Okay." Chen Yuan smiled and nodded.
The industry is complex, and life on board is also complex.
The area where Chen Yuan and the others were fishing for tuna before was also a large mountain range on the seabed, with a reef formed.
As for the fish caught, there are valuable fish and worthless fish. Usually after buying, the money is divided according to the ratio.
Not to mention hard work, the risk is also very high.
"What will happen to this sea area if we use rogue hooks?" Chen Yuan asked.
It’s this 2% share that contains a lot of water. Anyway, the cost of a company’s fishing boat is much higher than that of a small company’s fishing boat, often more than double the cost.
"I think it should be placed on the ocean current line." Chen Yuandao.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Jianguo talked a lot about the important things to note about Phalanx, location selection, how to set up the formation, and the specific operations.
"It's a good choice. But this location..."
"If you find a good location, the effect is really good." Zhou Jianguo said.
At this time, you can discuss a fishing base with the purse seine boat. During the fishing season, it is normal to catch hundreds of tons of fish on one net. Then it is agreed that 150 tons of fish catch belongs to the purse seine boat, and the part over 150 tons belongs to the ships that arrange the Phalanx.
Team owned.
But if it is done well, the benefits will be quite astonishing.
"We have six ships. If we don't fix it, we will lose up to one million yuan a day. This risk is a bit high."
"Two or three hundred meters negative."
"Return is directly proportional to risk. The higher the risk, the greater the return."
"Absolutely. Our boat catches a lot..." Zhou Sheng said: "Especially when Chen Yuan was on our boat, a year's fishing mission could be completed in more than half a year. But to be honest, the treatment in Dongjiang is really average.
"
"It should be." Zhou Jianguo nodded and said: "The entire seamount is below. By the way, what is the highest altitude of the seamount?"
"Okay, here we go." Chen Yuan took Zhou Jianguo to the living room, took out a beer, opened it, and handed it to Zhou Jianguo: "I will discuss it with Master and the others in the evening. If we decide to place the Phalanx, I will have to trouble you."
In their fleet, Lin Xinhai used to engage in trawling and purse seine. Zhao Hai, Xu Laosan and Liu Laoer were the same.
"Then the submarine mountain group 80 kilometers north of Xiaojinma Island." Chen Yuan said: "Is there a volcano below?"
Phalanx can gather fish.
"There are also many fishing boats in the north of Xiaojinma Island, but they are relatively better. You go and set up a phalanx, and other fishing boats will not want to talk to you after seeing it." Zhou Jianguo chuckled.
"It's time to eat." Zhou Sheng shouted.
There are also cases of failure when setting up Phalanx, that is, choosing the wrong place and failing to gather fish.
Zhou Sheng shrugged, the offshore fishing industry is very complicated.
Zhou Jianguo nodded: "Extinct volcanoes. Only active volcanoes exist in the Pacific Ring of Fire. The submarine volcanoes here are extinct volcanoes."
Gao He was a longline fishing boat built last year. As for Qian Degui, Chen Yuan was not familiar with him...
Zhou Sheng raised the wine bottle and touched it with Zhou Jianguo: "Old Jianguo, what is the current dividend of your seine boat?"
"That should be there."
Theoretically speaking, the denser the Phalanx pontoons are, the better. But considering the actual operation, it is really hard to say.
"I know that the best location is in the northeast, but as you said, there are many fishing boats there, so where can we find a location to put our rogue hooks?" Chen Yuan said.
Chen Yuan also laughed. As for whether to release the Phalanx, Chen Yuan still had to discuss it with Lin Xinhai and the others.
Chen Yuan didn't know the effect of Phalanx.
Phalanx requires at least a few square kilometers to have a great effect. If it is too dense, the number of pontoons will not be enough. But if it is too sparse, the effect of gathering fish will not be ideal.
Zhou Sheng's side has already cooked the rice, and Chen Yuan also knows how to place the Phalanx.
"The last time I ate beef cooked by you was several years ago." Zhou Jianguo said with a smile: "The treatment of Dongjiang Fishery is very high in the industry. The most important thing is that safety is relatively guaranteed... There are some small companies,
On private ocean-going fishing boats, not to mention the treatment, the boatmen are not even treated as human beings."
Chen Yuan pulled Zhou Jianguo into the driving seat, opened the chartplotter, pointed between Butaritari Atoll and Abai Atoll, and said, "Is there any upwelling here?"
For example, the crew members of Chen Yuan's company are all acquaintances and everyone knows everything about them.
The same is true for Zhao Hai, Gao He and other shipboard employees. Even if they are not experienced, they still need to be people who know the basics.
In this case, safety is guaranteed.
No matter what a company does, when employees get together, they will still complain about the company's treatment...
Dongjiang Fishery is a very good company in the industry.
