After Liu Qijinhao spent 700,000 to take a photo of the Tibetan Mastiff, he took Lu Fei to the restaurant he highly recommended.
While waiting for the food to be served, Lu Fei pretended to be nonchalant, chatting about Tibetan mastiffs and finding out information about the consumption of soybeans in dog food.
Nowadays, the Tibetan Mastiff craze has just begun, and the scale of breeding is less than a thousand, but the growth rate is extremely fast. There are hundreds of new ones in Tubo, Xihai and Ganlong. You must know that when the bubble burst, tens of thousands of Tibetan Mastiffs were abandoned.
However, water from far away cannot quench the thirst of near people, and it is not enough to fill the gap in the poultry breeding industry hit by avian influenza. The sales of soybeans and soybean meal can only be considered better than nothing. The key is this gimmick——
Linking soybeans to Tibetan mastiffs is the capital market’s favorite story!
"Brother Lu, what do you think? Do you want a Tibetan Mastiff or not? As long as you open the mouth, I will send you the best one."
Liu Qijin unscrewed the glass bottle of Long Nanchun and filled the wine glass.
Lu Fei still declined, and the conversation shifted to the heated soybean war. International grain merchants came to the west at a low price and fought with the domestic soybean negotiation team for 300 rounds at the top of the Forbidden City.
"I know this, it's always shown on TV."
Liu Qijin scratched his head: "Let him know, I also want to do my best, but I can't help, but you are different, Brother Lu. Feigou.com has so many users, let's hold another Double Eleven for him!"
"It's still early until November. I'm afraid that many soybean companies won't be able to survive by then, and half of them will die within six months."
Lu Fei casually mentioned that he was Lu Hua's second boss.
"Hey, brother Lu, I'll call the company right away. From now on, all mines will use Luhua's oil."
Liu Qijin picked up the wine glass with both hands, "Of course it's not enough for my family. When I return to western Shanxi, I advise all my friends to use Luhua."
Lu Fei thanked him, clinked his glasses and took a sip, "Not only soybean oil, but also soybean meal."
Liu Qijin was surprised. Now that the bird flu is spreading, poultry farmers have become "poor" and have no money to squeeze out.
Lu Fei looked at it with a smile, having no intention of extracting money from the poultry farmers who had lost all their money.
Liu Qijin couldn't help being stunned, his eyes widened.
At this moment, the landlady served the mutton and said in fluent Mandarin: "The dishes are ready."
Liu Qijin handed over the knife: "Come on, Brother Lu, try it while it's hot. I can say this is the best hand-braised mutton in the area."
Lu Fei cuts the meat with a knife in one hand and grabs the meat in the mouth with the other. The mutton is not grilled or rinsed, nor marinated or stir-fried. It is simply boiled in water and dipped in soy sauce and chili powder, which gives it a unique taste.
Liu Qijin asked curiously: "Brother Lu, if you don't earn their money, whose money will you earn?"
Lu Fei bit into a piece of mutton: "You, a rich man like you who raises Tibetan mastiffs."
Liu Qijin was shocked at first, then slowly came to his senses, "Brother Lu, no way, even if a Tibetan Mastiff eats four or five meals a day, it only eats so much soybean meal, how can it compare to chickens, ducks, pigs and cows?"
"That's because there is no hype. After the hype is over, there will be more breeding."
Lu Fei knew very well that the hype about Tibetan Mastiffs was not aimed at ordinary people, but at the wealthy and nouveau riche who wanted to show off their appearance. Even if the entire Tibetan Mastiff industry chain collapsed, the speculators would be the ones accidentally injured.
Whoever has money, I, Lu Jiutong, will earn from him!
Liu Qijin's heart was filled with excitement: "How do you want to speculate, brother Lu? How do you want me to cooperate? Do you want me to spread some rumors in my circle?"
"Boss Liu, would you like to be on the news?"
Lu Fei cut the meat with a knife and ate it happily.
Liu Qijin said: "Brother Lu, it is more suitable for you to buy one than me. It will definitely push the Tibetan Mastiff to a new climax."
Lu Fei wiped his hands with a tissue and filmed "A World Without Thieves" just to avoid suspicion. How could he be so popular because of the Tibetan Mastiff craze?
Seeing this, Liu Qijin agreed, but then he looked embarrassed and stopped talking.
Lu Fei had guessed from the moment he showed his courtesy that he wanted to ask for something, "Boss Liu, if you have anything to say, just say it. Is it a matter of the Han and Tang Dynasties?"
"No, no, the Han and Tang Dynasties are going well. The TV series I invested in have made me money and face. My buddies in Shanxi all call me 'Matchmaker Boss' and they all want to imitate me and do some big jobs in the film and television industry."
."
Liu Qijin smacked his lips and finally confessed that the coal coking plant was still his heart's desire. However, this year's macro-control has caused a large number of coking projects to be cancelled. He had to overcome the difficulties of talent, technology, and environmental protection, and worked hard to go from department to department. Finally, he was stuck in the approval process.
flow eastwards.
Lu Fei asked: "What is the annual output of your coking plant?"
"300,000 tons."
Liu Qijin blurted out: "Brother Lu, do you want to buy a share? I will give you 20% of the shares for free."
Lu Fei shook his head and laughed, "You can't do anything without money, you have to inject capital, but 300,000 tons is a little less. Let's double it to 600,000 tons."
Liu Qijin made a rough calculation and found that including coal tar processing, crude benzene refining and other projects, at least 300 to 400 million yuan would be invested.
"I invest 30%, but there is one condition: the production projects of synthetic ammonia and urea must be added."
Lu Fei squinted his eyes. Synthetic ammonia is a catalyst for high grain yields. International grain merchants have everything from production links such as seeds and fertilizers to circulation links such as transportation channels and networks, and operate as an integrated group.
ABCD, Wilmar International has it, Luhua should also have it!
…………
Ludong, Rizhao.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, on April 1, the bidding meeting for Sanwei Group’s soybean crushing plant with a daily output of 3,000 tons officially began.
16 domestic soybean companies in Beijing have sent representatives to form a support group to cheer up the only remaining soybean company.
There are no longer a handful of soybean colleagues who hold this idea, and they are pouring into this small town that no one cares about in the past from all directions. Even Tian Renli, the general manager of Jiusan Group, put aside all official duties and went south in person.
.
"Tibetan Mastiff, dog food, is this reliable?"
"Of course it's not reliable. It's just a gimmick created by Mr. Lu."
Sun Mengquan glanced at the area where the five major grain merchants were located and lowered his voice, "It is claimed that soybean companies have found new markets for their soybean meal supply, creating the illusion that the Tibetan mastiff industry is booming and the demand for soybean meal is amplified in the short term."
Tian Renli was speechless and said: "Is it possible?"
"Don't worry about whether it works or not, just one word, lie, until the bird flu is over, poultry breeding resumes, and you can get Double Eleven."
Sun Mengquan said in a voice that only two people could hear, "This matter requires your cooperation."
Just as the two of them were joining together, Guo Kongfeng followed the representatives of the four major grain merchants of ABCD and entered the venue on time, in an overwhelming formation.
The protagonist this time, George, the representative of Bunge Company, took the lead. He took the step of not recognizing his relatives. He did not take his seat for the first time. Instead, he turned to Lu Hua and the support group and said condescendingly:
"Are you Luhua's manager Sun?"
"That's me." Sun Mengquan frowned.
"Luhua is interested in financing?"
George opened his mouth to ask about the possibility of Bunge's equity participation. He did not ask for profit dividends or get involved in the operation. As long as he handed over the right to purchase raw materials, he was guaranteed to get great benefits.
He even promised to support Luhua, surpass the ADM directly controlled Arowana, and secure the iron throne of Chinese vegetable oil.
"Without you, Lu Hua would still be number one in China!"
Sun Mengquan snorted coldly. I have never seen such a shameless person. He is worthy of the Stars and Stripes!
"I believe that when you see the strength of our Bungie, you will change your mind."
George was not annoyed at all and said in a joking tone: "I have prepared a dinner at the hotel. If you think about it carefully, you can come to me."
"No, I can answer you now, No!"
Sun Mengquan had a straight face, while his colleagues beside and behind him shared the same hatred and glared viciously.
"Ahem, it's almost time, everyone please sit down in their seats."
The provincial and municipal leaders sitting on the stage looked at each other and nodded to the chairman of Sanwei Group. He immediately walked to the podium, lowered his head towards the microphone, and said an opening statement:
"I announce that the bidding is now officially open!"
Immediately afterwards, under the eyes of everyone who was looking forward to it, the seven document bags were publicly displayed, and then they were opened and the bidding materials were taken out. The leaders read out the bidding company, bidding price, bidding conditions, etc. one by one.
“Archer Daniels Midland…”
"Cargill...Louis Dreyfus..."
"Wilmar International..."
"Bungi..."
"Congratulations, George, should we open a bottle of champagne to celebrate?"
There was a smile on Guo Kongfeng's lips. When the Bunge bid was read out and it surpassed the other five bidders without any doubt, he was the first to clap his hands and applaud.
"The champagne is already in the hotel. As soon as the bidding is over, we will set off immediately!" George grinned and laughed.
The unbridled and relaxed laughter makes the allies who are working together feel more or less happy.
Just when the air was filled with joy, Lu Hua's bid was like a cannonball, hitting their hearts firmly.
"What!?"
George, who thought he was sure of victory, was the first to break through the defense. His face was so shocked that he was dumbfounded. He never expected that Cheng Yaojin suddenly appeared, and it was Lu Hua who was ignored by them.
Guo Kongfeng saw this in his eyes, his lips subconsciously raised, and he quickly pulled them down, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
The smiles of the other three major grain merchants stopped and they looked at each other in confusion.
His eyes were complicated, some were surprised, some were confused, but most of them were gloating. He was secretly happy when he saw that Bunge was defeated and the soybean crushing plant he had acquired flew away.
"The above are the bid letters from the seven companies participating in this tender."
The chairman of Sanwei Group opened the envelope and showed a pleased smile: "Now I announce that the winning bidder this time is Lu Hua!"
There was a bang, and all the friends and businessmen present stood up in excitement, each one more excited than the other, cheering and applauding, the applause was like thunder, almost tearing down the roof.
Amidst the noise, Guo Kongfeng was ecstatic in his heart, but shocked and angry on the outside:
"This Lu Hua is definitely here to cause trouble!"
"fuxk,fuxk!"
George heard the wave of applause, which was particularly harsh, and angrily glared at Sun Mengquan on the stage.
The media who had been waiting for a long time swarmed to the front row, scrambling to take photos, and the shutter clicked.
"China has a history of four to five thousand years of soybean cultivation. To the Chinese civilization, soybeans are as important as rice..."
"The rice bowls of the Chinese people must be firmly in our own hands, and our rice bowls should mainly contain Chinese grains!"
"If we rely on imports of food rations and soybeans, we will be led by others."
"..."
"Food is the first priority for the people, oil is the first priority, and beans are the main food. We must firmly hold soybeans in the hands of the Chinese people!"
Sun Mengquan took out his speech and spoke incessantly.
Publicly call on all enterprises in eastern Shandong to unite, and enterprises across the country to unite and form a support group based on enterprise alliances to jointly safeguard domestic soybean oil and defend domestic soybeans.
"good!"
“That’s very spirited!”
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
Applause came one after another, one wave after another, from the audience to the stage. If the bidding organizer had not maintained a neutral and objective image, the leaders with excitement on their faces would have wanted to applaud.
"It's broken, it's broken!"
Guo Kongfeng resisted the urge to clap and said in a panic: "Lu Hua is stirring up emotions, which will have an immeasurable negative impact on the negotiating team in Beijing. We must report the news to the headquarters immediately."
"Guo, you are right!"
The three major grain merchants of ACD looked gloomy amidst cheers from the mountains and tsunamis, and they gouged out George's eyes fiercely.
I gave you Bungie a chance, but you are useless!
That’s it, do you want to open champagne?
"If you are angry, don't point it at me. We are the victims! The real culprit is him!"
George's face turned red and blue, and he gritted his teeth as he looked at Sun Mengquan, watching him come off the stage with his chin held high, striding like lightning.
“Boss Sun, ‘The jobs of the Chinese people must be firmly in our own hands’, this sentence is very encouraging!”
2kxs.la
Tian Renli's palms turned red when he clapped his hands, he gave a thumbs up and praised without hesitation.
Sun Mengquan smiled with humility: "Hey, I don't know so much, thanks to Mr. Lu's guidance."
"As expected of Mr. Lu!"
Tian Renli was not surprised and felt sincerely. People around him all agreed and praised him repeatedly.
Obviously Mr. Lu did not come to the scene, but the legend of Mr. Lu is everywhere.
Mr. Lu is here, and we have the backbone!
When Mr. Lu comes, there will be a blue sky!
………………
"We cannot leave grain and soybeans in the hands of outsiders!"
"If you have food in your hands, don't panic in your heart. The Chinese people's rice bowl must be firmly in their hands at all times!"
"Luhua fought for China's soybeans, with 1 against 6, and successfully acquired the soybean crushing plant in Rizhao, Shandong with a slight advantage in a tender meeting surrounded by foreign capital. The annual soybean oil production capacity has officially entered the ranks of one million tons, second only to
Arowana, Fulinmen, and the soybeans used are all native soybeans from the three northeastern provinces..."
"Sun Mengquan calls on the entire industry to unite and start a battle to defend soybeans!"
The official media, which had already received the news, took the lead to give Lu Hua a patriotic and national boost. The three portals controlled by Mr. Lu from Netease, New Wolf, and Penguin were one step ahead of Sohu and cooperated in an orderly manner to control public opinion.
Offline expands to online——
The price of imported soybeans must be reduced, otherwise there will be a strong boycott!
In addition to calling for speeches, Luhua organized a signature campaign of tens of thousands of people to support the domestic negotiating team. More and more companies are supporting the event, either because they are colleagues in the soybean industry with immediate interests, or because there is a mysterious force that is adding fuel to the flames.
Public opinion is fierce. From top to bottom, the main war faction outweighs the capitulation faction. It seems that no one who dares to speak out against the United States will be like this!
The international grain merchants who set up a trap for the Chinese soybean purchasing group finally experienced the taste of being denounced by the trap.
ADM hurriedly convened a meeting with its allies to discuss countermeasures. At this time, the conference room of the Soybean Association's office in China was filled with smoke and deathly silence.
Bunji's speaker faced everyone's gaze and couldn't help it. After all, his current passivity was all a chain reaction of the failed bid.
"That's enough. Now is not the time for internal strife. What we are facing now is the anger of the entire China."
Andreas slapped the table: "Fuxk, where on earth did this Luhua get so much money!"
"According to my investigation, Luhua recently issued 50 million U.S. dollars in bonds, all of which were subscribed by the Trisolaris Fund."
Kuok Henian said seriously: "This Three-Body Fund is owned by China Luhua, and his family happens to be the second largest shareholder of Luhua. It must be Sun who asked him to borrow money."
"Huaxia Continent? You are careless, such important information..."
Andreas frowned, "Guo, you know China better than we do, what do you think we should do now?"
"I don't think we can take action anymore. We should put aside the negotiations first, leave China, continue to use raw materials, legal and financial siege, and wait until the public anger has completely subsided before coming back. By then, China's soybean industry will have run out of ammunition and food, and someone will definitely surrender.
."
Robert Kuok carefully analyzed the pros and cons and gave a pertinent plan.
Andreas touched his chin, "Retreat?"
"I object!" Bunji's speaker was the first to stand up.
"You actually have the nerve to object, if it weren't for Bunji...
"That's enough, today's ones will be here first."
Seeing a dispute broke out between the speakers, Andreas quickly shouted to stop: "Everyone is a little impatient. Go back and think about it carefully. I will inform you of the meeting time the day after tomorrow."
The meeting lasted only half an hour and ended unhappily.
"etc."
Kuok stopped Andreas and actively persuaded him to vote in favor.
"Why, Guo, give me a perfect reason?"
"Because although we have retreated, don't forget that Wilmar International's subsidiary Yihai Kerry is still there."
"You mean to let Yihai Kerry continue to acquire and participate in shares?"
"Yeah, many Chinese people think that Arowana is a domestic brand, and Yihai Jiali's actions will never cause such great public pressure. Moreover, we have all retreated, and the only remaining opponent is Luhua."
Robert Kuok said with a smile: "Can't ADM and Wilmar International join forces to deal with him? Is the reason perfect?"
“Perfect!”
Andreas couldn't help but feel moved. ADM is the major shareholder of Wilmar International. Wilmar International is also the major shareholder of Yihai Kerry. Yihai Kerry has participated in shares and made acquisitions, becoming the major shareholder of Huaxia Soybean Company. Matryoshka.
