What really surprised Liu Qingyu was that not only agricultural trading companies from all over the country came to participate in this agricultural trade fair, but also many farmers from other counties and districts in Nanhua City.
Farmers are simple, unpretentious, and the most realistic.
As people's living conditions get better and better, and as food safety awareness gradually increases, people rarely use pesticides on the grains and vegetables they eat. At the same time, people are concerned about GMOs. Because food is becoming more and more important, many people now don't even eat soybean oil bought in supermarkets, because they have long heard that soybean oil is probably genetically modified. Therefore, they would rather spend more money and cost to grow and extract oil by themselves than to buy it.
At this moment, when the people of Nanhua City heard that most of the corn, soybeans, and rice they planted were genetically modified, they were all furious. On the one hand, they made a large-scale collective complaint to the relevant departments. On the one hand, I try to sell the food I have hoarded at home to take out.
However, at this time, there were too many sellers and too few buyers, and grain prices continued to fall.
At the same time, ordinary people went to the Ruiyuan County Farmers' Trade Fair one after another to purchase non-GMO seeds.
Because of this, the number of visitors to the entire agricultural trade fair increased significantly almost overnight.
The agricultural trade fair, which originally occupied less than one-third of the entire People's Heart Square, suddenly more than doubled the exhibitor booths, almost occupying the entire People's Heart Square. At the same time, farmers who came to participate in the farmers' trade fair It also increased dozens of times.
Almost every household of hundreds of thousands of people in Ruiyuan County sent representatives to the exhibition to buy seeds, and millions of people in Nanhua City also came to buy grain through various channels.
When Liu Qingyu saw this situation, he immediately realized that the current capacity of Minxin Square could not accommodate too many people, and due to the limited width of the road, traffic congestion had begun. Liu Qingyu immediately made a decision to move the agricultural trade to The venue was moved from Minxin Square to Ruiyuan County Development Zone.
The Ruiyuan County Development Zone is said to be a development zone, but in fact it is just a piece of wasteland where site leveling work has just been completed.
This was a political achievement project carried out by the former secretary of the county party committee when he was in office. Hundreds of millions of money was poured into it in an attempt to attract investment through the development zone. As a result, after a few years, there were only three scattered small enterprises in the development zone, including Two companies have ceased production, but land leveling measures have been taken in an area of about a thousand acres of land in the development zone. To restore cultivated land, continued investment is needed. At the same time, land compensation for the people has not been in place.
This is also one of the reasons why Ruiyuan County has a particularly high concentration of petitions. In order to solve this problem, Liu Qingyu promised the people that he would return the compensation fees that the people should collect at a return rate of 15% every year for 2 years. After that, 100% of the rebate will be paid directly in the third year, which is equivalent to farmers getting 30% of the rebate for two years. Of course, Liu Qingyu also promised the farmers that if they want to get the rebate that year, there is no problem. , you can go to the Municipal Finance Bureau to get it with your household registration book during this year’s May Day Labor Day.
Attracted by Liu Qingyu's relatively tolerant and preferential policies, almost all farmers chose the former and re-signed the compensation contract. The new contract not only improved the compensation standard compared to the old contract, but also Various other discounts have been improved, and the people have no doubts about Liu Qingyu's words. Therefore, Liu Qingyu has sufficient time to develop the development zone.
This time, when Liu Qingyu found that the Minxin Square area was not enough to meet the requirements, he did not hesitate to move the site to the development zone and asked Song Xiaojun and two deputy county magistrates to plan the entrance and exit of the new site overnight. , logistics exits, passenger flow exits and other locations, and indicator lines have been set.
Liu Qingyu's decision was very wise. Starting from the second day of the exhibition, the number of agricultural trading companies coming to Ruiyuan County to participate in the exhibition continued to increase. The farmers who came here to buy seeds also began to buy seeds from the surrounding areas of Ruiyuan County. The county area extends to the entire Baiyun Province.
The 20 testing instruments that Liu Qingyu specially coordinated and borrowed have never been idle since the first day, because any exhibitor entering the Ruiyuan County Agricultural Trade Fair must allow Ruiyuan County to randomly inspect any variety. Seeds, any company that discovers one genetically modified seed will be directly given a yellow card by Ruiyuan County. If two types of genetically modified seeds are found, Ruiyuan County will directly refuse it to participate in this agricultural exhibition.
It is precisely due to the strict control of Ruiyuan County and the care of Zeng Hongtao that the health channel, news channel, and economic channel of Baiyun Provincial TV Station continuously reported on the Ruiyuan County Agricultural Exhibition. In addition, people from all over the country With the influx of TV reporters, website reporters, etc., the agricultural trade fair in Ruiyuan County suddenly jumped from a small county-level agricultural trade fair to an agricultural exhibition with high influence in the entire China.
Almost all people across the country know one thing, that is, if you want to buy non-GMO seeds, the farmers’ trade fair in Ruiyuan County is the safest and most secure place.
At the same time, when Liu Qingyu saw that the Ruiyuan County Farmers' Trade Fair was becoming more and more influential, more and more farmers, seed companies, second-level dealers, and third-level dealers came to participate in this farmers' trade fair. At that time, Liu Qingyu immediately summoned all the county party committee standing committee members to hold an emergency standing committee meeting. At the standing committee meeting, Liu Qingyu said loudly: "Comrades, I believe everyone has seen the situation of the agricultural trade fair now. Since this agricultural trade fair has gained a lot of attention, A great success. Looking at the current trend, I am afraid that the originally planned three-day exhibition time may not be enough. Therefore, I propose to extend the exhibition time to one week, which can leave sufficient time for merchants from other parts of the country.
In addition, considering the influence of this year's exhibition, I propose that we continue to hold the second Ruiyuan County Agricultural Trade Fair tomorrow, and at the same time take advantage of the popularity of this exhibition to send invitation letters to all exhibitors who have been reviewed by us to invite them I believe no one will refuse to continue to participate next year. At the same time, we will also put a certain amount of advertisements on TV media and some soft advertisements on online media to fully spread the influence of this time to the maximum and bring our Swiss The Yuan County Farmers' Trade Association will serve as a platform for sales and exchange of non-GMO seeds.
At the same time, we will turn our Ruiyuan County’s non-GMO* certification into a brand, and at the same time use these platforms to build our Ruiyuan County into a brand that is the birthplace of non-GMO* seeds. In this way, As long as the seeds produced by our farmers in Ruiyuan County are non-GMO seeds, they will definitely become best-selling products, have no worries about sales, and will be sold smoothly across the country, thus allowing the people to gain huge benefits."
After Liu Qingyu finished speaking, the audience burst into warm applause.
At this moment, including Sun Xuyang and Wei Honglin, they had to admire Liu Qingyu's advanced thinking. If all the problems Liu Qingyu mentioned can be realized, then just relying on this small farmers' trade meeting, Ruiyuan County can obtain huge benefits, which not only come from the economic level, but also from the reputation level and political performance level.
Whether it was Sun Xuyang or Wei Honglin, they all realized that a small farmers' trade fair that none of them was optimistic about had turned into a brand farmers' trade fair with national influence. The achievements of the preparatory group for this farmers' trade fair were remarkable. At this time At this moment, both Wei Honglin and Sun Xuyang regretted not joining this preparatory group.
At this time, Liu Qingyu glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, although this farmers' trade fair will not end for several days, I think that the preparations for the next farmers' trade fair should also start. As for the composition of the preparatory team for this agricultural trade fair, my proposal is to retain all the key leaders of this agricultural trade fair. After all, their performance during this agricultural trade fair was quite outstanding. It can be said that without their hard work, there would be no this agricultural trade fair. Of course, the scale of the next farmers' trade fair will probably be even bigger than this one. Therefore, more fresh blood needs to be added to the preparation team of the new farmers' trade fair. And I have some suggestions, that is It is necessary to expand the scope of trade certification of the farmers’ trade fair, so the number of people in the preparatory team must be at least doubled.”
Hearing Liu Qingyu's words, all the members of the Standing Committee immediately looked at Liu Qingyu with wide eyes. They could see that Liu Qingyu had obviously thrown out a very tempting pie. Who wouldn't? I hope to join the next preparatory group. That is a real political achievement, but everyone also realizes that since Liu Qingyu raised this issue, he must have his own thoughts.
At this time, Liu Qingyu continued: "I believe everyone knows that the task of this second preparatory group is very arduous. If the preparations are not good, then our Ruiyuan County will become the laughing stock of the people across the country. Therefore, for the second preparatory group, We must strictly select the preparatory staff for the second phase of the preparatory group. I suggest that all the standing committee members of the next farmers' trade fair automatically become members of the preparatory group and are responsible for coordinating some things. But I said something ugly earlier, although all the standing committee members are part of the preparatory group. However, except for the original members of the preparatory group, other new members of the preparatory group only have the right to make suggestions and work, but have no decision-making or control rights to avoid unnecessary waste and inefficiency caused by multi-headed command.
In addition, the next preparatory group will be divided into three functional groups, which are the preparatory and organizational areas responsible for the original group. This area will be led by Comrade Ren Ran Song Xiaojun and Comrade Zhou Fushan. The other two functional groups are the propaganda group. Comrade Wei Honglin and Comrade Sun Xuyang are in charge of the aftermath team and the aftermath team respectively. What do you think?"
Sun Xuyang was stunned when he heard Liu Qingyu's assignment.
He never expected that Liu Qingyu would hand over the aftermath team, a rubbish team, to him, but give the very critical propaganda team to Wei Honglin. You know, he often supports him in the Standing Committee. Liu Qingyu What kind of trick was being played?
