Chapter 251 Do you really think everyone else is a fool?
The phone was hung up, Gao Jin frowned with a thoughtful expression on his face, and Gao Yuande beside him did not interrupt.
It wasn't until Gao Jin picked up the cup to drink tea that Gao Yuande said, "What happened?"
“Don’t know yet”
"Mayor Meng of Jinwei City asked me to go to Jinwei City tomorrow. He only said that it was related to Fengshou Agricultural Company, and nothing else."
"I don't know why, I always have a bad feeling."
Gao Jin told the truth.
After hearing this, Gao Yuande thought for a while and looked up at Gao Jin, "Go, I guess I want to talk to you about the expansion of Harvest Agriculture Company."
Gao Jin was stunned. He thought about expansion. His current output could not even cover the two cities of Shangjing City and Jinwei City. There was no time to expand.
Could it be that...........
Thinking of this, Gao Yuande glanced at his father and nodded slowly.
"The vegetable output of one of your buildings is equivalent to the output of almost fifty acres of land. What kind of situation is this? It really makes you expand in a disorderly manner across the country."
"You are forcing the country to deal with you."
"The food basket is people's livelihood, and no country will allow one company to control it."
"If you go, don't support me, but make reasonable demands. A hard policy will not do you any good, do you understand?"
Gao Yuande's social experience is incomparably rich. No matter how dedicated he is to taking care of his old age, he can see through the essence of many things at a glance.
"I understand"
"When we first made the strategic plan, the goal was to focus on super cities, first-tier cities, and second-tier cities. There are only 20 or 30 of these cities. I will not enter other urban markets."
Gao Jin told his strategic plan, and Gao Yuande snorted and looked at his son.
"If you don't enter other cities, you won't think about how many vegetables the city you occupy consumes the market."
"How much of the country's GDP do these cities account for?"
"Do you really think everyone else is a fool?..."
Gao Yuande scolded Gao Jin vigorously. It was undeniable that his son was very smart, had great business talent, and his business was running prosperously.
The wealth gained through hard work in just a few years is comparable to the wealth accumulated in a lifetime.
But the weakness of immaturity of mind is also very obvious, and the greed for money is even more important than himself.
Being too greedy will not last long. Gao Yuande scolded Gao Jin this time just to make Gao Jin understand this.
"Dad, what do you think I should do?"
Gao Jin asked with a serious expression on his face, he was reprimanding himself for his own good, and he still knew this.
"Be aware of current affairs, know how to advance and retreat, and don't touch the bottom line!"
After Gao Yuande finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup and started drinking tea. Gao Jin began to think about this sentence. He didn't say much and went straight to the core essence.
Soon, Gao Jin looked at his father and nodded slowly, and a smile appeared on Gao Yuande's face.
The day passed quickly. Early the next morning, Gao Jin drove to Jinwei City. There were two Daben Guardians in front of him and behind him.
At half past nine, Gao Jin arrived at the gate of the compound and made a phone call to Meng Guangxian. Meng Guangxian arranged for his secretary to take Gao Jin into the compound.
After closing the door, Meng Guangxian began to talk to Gao Jin about Fengshou Agriculture Company.
Gao Jin listened as Meng Guangxian spoke, nodding his head from time to time, predicting the situation was correct. This was to persuade him not to expand disorderly.
"Mayor Meng, please rest assured that Harvest Agriculture Company will not expand disorderly."
"There are 334 prefecture-level administrative regions in the country. Harvest Agriculture Company covers up to 40 cities and will never exceed this number. I can guarantee this."
Gao Jin said this with a calm face. Meng Guangxian smiled after hearing it. Yes, he was quite self-aware.
However, even forty cities will not work.
"Thirty, no more than this number, this is the bottom line."
Meng Guangxian said this with a serious expression on his face. The thirty city goals are not nonsense, but numbers arrived at after communicating with Wei Mingyang and relevant departments.
The country needs advanced agricultural technologies, and it is necessary to support enterprises in developing higher technologies, which requires obtaining funds from the market.
When expanding Harvest Agriculture, you will definitely consider those big cities first. There are thirty big city markets as the basis, which is enough for you to make a profit.
Markets in other cities will maintain their current status, and the prices of food baskets across the country will also drop a bit, which is good for stabilizing people's livelihood.
At the same time, it can promote more scientific planting among the people and improve technical levels.
We cannot remain unchanged at one level, but must carry out technological upgrades gradually and orderly, which will have certain benefits for the national agricultural transformation.
Gao Jin thought for a while, looked at Meng Guangxian and said, "Okay, there are only thirty cities. Our harvest agricultural company will never expand beyond this number."
Seeing Gao Jin agree, Meng Guangxian also breathed a sigh of relief. This is the best result.
"You must understand that technology research and development and upgrading cannot be stopped. This is also the bottom line." Meng Guangxian said with a smile, and Gao Jin nodded helplessly.
After the matter was settled, both of them felt a lot more relaxed. As they chatted, the topic turned to Shengguang Solar Energy Company.
Meng Guangxian's resentment rose again, and he began to discuss tax issues with Gao Jin.
Although the air water production plant in Rizao City did not pay much tax, your Xingling Group funded a reservoir with a total investment of more than 100 million.
Here in Jinwei City, I don’t even have a hair on my head. Are you sorry?
"Mayor, next year, you know that I have invested too much this year and funds in all aspects are extremely tight. Starting from the second half of next year, I promise to gradually increase my monthly taxes."
Gao Jin made the promise with a serious expression on his face. This year's expenses are indeed too great. There have been too many companies acquired in the past two years, and most of them are still losing money.
If it weren't for my strong family background, I would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Meng Guangxian also understands Gao Jin's difficulties. Since Gao Jin has stated that he will start to change in the second half of next year, there is no need to push too hard.
"Okay, I hope you will do what you say."
All Meng Guangxian could say was that what Gao Jin did was not illegal, which was the most uncomfortable thing.
"We must do it"
"My father has always taught me that we must contribute to the country. When the country is strong, those of us who are entrepreneurs will be better equipped."
"If I can breathe a little easier in the second half of next year, I will definitely change the current situation."
Gao Jin promised again, Meng Guangxian nodded and stopped talking about it, changing the topic.
About an hour later, Meng Guangxian sent Gao Jin to the parking lot downstairs. Watching Gao Jin drive away, Meng Guangxian then walked towards Wei Mingyang's office.
When they arrived at Wei Mingyang's office, Meng Guangxian reported the results of the negotiation with Gao Jin, and Wei Mingyang also breathed a sigh of relief.
We are not afraid of companies making money, but we are afraid that if you do not know how to advance or retreat and create a monopoly, it will cause social instability. When the time comes, no one will be able to step down.
"As long as he listens and tries to persuade him"
"It would be great if there were more domestic companies that focused on technology research and development," Wei Mingyang said with emotion.
According to statistics from relevant departments, there are really not many domestic companies that are willing to invest large sums of money in technology research and development. Strictly speaking, there are only seven or eight companies.
There are only two or three companies without state-owned assets background.
"Yes, so many domestic agricultural companies receive so many subsidies every year, but their technology improves every year, but not much every year."
"Most of them are fooling around and cheating on subsidies. Otherwise, once these advanced technologies become popular, they will have no ability to resist."
Meng Guangxian also sighed with emotion.
The country is currently deliberately controlling the spread of advanced technologies in order to fear that too many people will lose their jobs.
Once the Dutch flower technology is fully rolled out in China, the entire flower planting industry will collapse.
The yield is not as good as the other side, the preservation technology is not as good as the other side, and the planting technology is not as good as the other side.
The crushing brought about by technology is terrifying.
Gao Jin left the compound without going to Shengguang Solar Energy Company. Now that Shengguang Solar Energy Company is on track, it would be better for him to interfere less.
We drove directly from Jinwei City to Dafang Fengshou Agricultural Company.
Today, students from xx University in Jinwei City came to visit vegetable cultivation. Five buses came. Fang Jingquan arranged for these people to visit various buildings.
As long as these students recognize your vegetables, the brand building will be further improved. If you persist year after year, in a few years, the Fengsheng brand will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
After Gao Jin arrived, he drank tea in the office and waited for a while. When Fang Jingquan came back, the two stood in front of the map and had a serious communication.
"Chairman, thirty cities are enough for us to make money. If we occupy these big cities, we will be able to fully recover our capital within a few years, and the rest will be pure profits."
"I think our Harvest Agriculture Company is as profitable as Rocket Bear Company."
Fang Jingquan said this with confidence.
Gao Jin curled his lips, looked at Fang Jingquan and said, "The initial expenditure is not inferior to Rocket Bear Company."
Fang Jingquan smiled awkwardly. The initial investment in the vegetable planting industrialization project was really too large, and ordinary companies really didn't have the strength to carry out this project.
"Have you ordered the equipment?" Gao Jin asked.
"The order has been placed. The one billion funds allocated by Minister Zhou Ziru yesterday have been received. As soon as I got to work today, I placed the order and paid the deposit to the equipment manufacturers."
"A set of equipment requires 480 sets of spare parts, 87 sets of spare parts can be produced domestically, and the rest are imported from abroad."
"Especially the conversion bearings, all imported from rb"
"If this kind of bearings can be produced domestically, our procurement costs can be reduced a lot."
Fang Jingquan said with a regretful expression, Gao Jin nodded, there is no way, as for bearings, currently only rb bearings can compete with European and American bearing manufacturers.
The price is relatively cheaper.
Among the top ten bearing companies in the world, RB accounts for five, two in the United States, two in Germany, and one in Sweden.
This shows the strength of rb bearing companies.
"By the way, the price of the chips we ordered from Taiwan Province has increased, by 40%." Fang Jingquan reported a situation, and Gao Jin raised his eyebrows.
"Change another one," Gao Jin said directly.
"There is no way to replace it. At present, apart from the company in Taiwan Province, only Shanxing Company in country H can produce it. Since the quantity we ordered is not large, the price offered by Shanxing is not cheap."
Fang Jingquan told the truth that currently there are only two companies in the world that can produce this kind of seven-nanometer chips. If you want to switch to another company, you can only passively accept the high price.
