In 1982, the household responsibility system was formally established.
Since then, the agricultural production model based on family units and household responsibility has completely replaced the original people's commune system.
This change has greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of farmers in production and provided a solid foundation for the diligence of farmers.
However, after nearly two decades of development, this production method of household responsibility has gradually hindered the development of agriculture.
Especially in the vast Northeast region, contracting high-quality land to each farmer completely fails to take advantage of the advantages of large-scale mechanized agriculture, and has become a roadblock on the road to farmers getting rid of poverty and becoming rich.
This problem will become more and more obvious in the future, eventually prompting the state and local governments to create an agricultural cooperation model.
However, from the perspective of Xiao Qian, a time traveler, this model does not fundamentally solve the problem of farmers getting rich.
The reason is simple.
Increased grain production and income does not mean that farmers' wealth will increase.
Food is an important national security strategy, so the state will strictly control the price of food to ensure that the general public can purchase and consume high-quality and low-priced food.
As a result, compared with the cost of farmers' input, the profit ratio of grain that cannot increase in price is not so gratifying.
Although the increase in grain production has allowed farmers to have more surplus in their hands in addition to completing the national grain strategic tasks, which can be invested in the market in exchange for income.
However, due to the overall price factors in the market, food that cannot be sold at a high price will often even result in losses.
In the final analysis, farmers are at the lowest end of the entire commercial agriculture and cannot enjoy the benefits brought by the high added value of commercial agriculture.
If farmers cannot grasp the upstream links of the industry and realize their dream of getting rich through agricultural production, it will be a castle in the air.
Unless like the United States, the vast number of farms are concentrated in the hands of a few large farmers. Farmers can rely on the grain in their hands to control prices and ensure their own interests.
But obviously, this is impossible to achieve in China.
Xiao Qian, who has clearly seen the essence, plans to settle the high value-added industry of commercial agriculture in the Northeast, so that all links from planting to purchasing to processing to sales can be done locally.
Finish.
"Look, the retail price of a bag of potato chips like this is 3.5 yuan, but its weight is only 500 grams. We are the main potato producing area. What is the purchase price of potatoes? It's only 13 cents. Look.
Well, just because there is such a processing procedure in the middle, the profit will be as high as
How many times the growth. In the past, our agricultural products were purchased at low prices by bulk merchants and shipped to the south. Then they were processed into such commodities and sold to us. What I want to ask is, why are we being exploited in this way? In this way
Can’t we do the food processing industry ourselves?”
Xiao Qian was just talking about the most basic common sense, but no one had given these cadres such an intuitive comparison in the past, so this time it had a very, very big impact on them.
A 500-gram bag of potato chips costs 3.5 yuan, and a pound of potatoes is only 13 cents. Even the most stupid person knows how much profit margin there is.
Secretary Xu clutched the potato chips tightly, his burning eyes seeming to see through the small bag.
However, in the end, it can only turn into helplessness.
"We all understand what you are saying. But we have no funds, no technology, no experience, and no market. There is nothing we can do except provide raw materials to others."
Xiao smiled slightly, as if covered with light.
"So, here I am."
He clasped his fingers and every word he spoke was inspiring.
"I can solve the problem of funding. Money can also solve the problem of technology. Not only can we learn from other people's technology, we also need to develop our own research and be ahead of others. There is good news to tell you here, that is
Our company has reached cooperation with the team of Professor Xue Guangzhi majoring in seed science and engineering at Northeast Agricultural University.
An initial investment of 300 million yuan was made to select and cultivate high-quality seeds for our plantations. At the same time, we also reached a cooperation with the team of Professor Chen Wenzhe from the Food Science and Engineering Department of Northeast Agricultural University to conduct research and development of food deep processing categories. Our company,
What we need to do is to combine industry and scientific research and always be at the forefront of similar industries."
When they heard that Xiao Qian had even invested in research and development, many people were shocked by his determination.
"As for experience..."
Xiao Qian pushed someone out.
"This is Dr. Xu Wenxuan. He used to be the technical director of Want Want Group. I invited him here sincerely and will serve as the CEO of our company. With professionals like him taking charge, our company's prospects are just around the corner."
Xiao Qian doesn't understand how to run a good food business. He has never been involved in it and is a pure layman.
But there is one thing where he is better than many people.
That is money making ability.
There are no professionals, no talents, it doesn’t matter, just poach people with money.
During this period, everyone in the major food industries at home and abroad was poached by him, just like a chicken being targeted by a weasel.
Not only that, Xiao Qian also signed a targeted talent training agreement with Northeast Agricultural University and Northeast Forestry University. He entrusted the two universities with the strongest relevant professional strength in the Northeast region to help enterprises cultivate professional agricultural and forestry economic management, food science and engineering, and biological sciences.
, talents in agricultural science and engineering, agricultural resources and environment and many other disciplines.
At present, these practices are just pure investment, but in the near future, they will definitely provide enterprises with an endless supply of talents and maintain their competitiveness.
When deciding to invest, Xiao Qian made all-round and three-dimensional considerations.
Investment should be used as an opportunity to promote the entire social system in the Northeast, which is like a backwater.
The academic atmosphere of educational and scientific research institutions in the Northeast is relatively closed. Except for some national key scientific research projects, there are very few ways for other research projects to be converted into economic benefits.
What Xiao Qian has to do is to use investment to transform the results of Northeast China's actually very strong teaching and scientific research system into actual benefits.
He personally visited Northeast Agricultural University and Northeast Forestry University. The teachers and students there have never stopped researching agriculture and forestry, and they also have many forward-looking and scientific ideas.
However, due to problems with scientific research funding, many research progresses slowly. Moreover, many results have been published, but they cannot be applied anywhere and can only be shelved.
The sight of the white-haired scientists sighing and sighing after looking at their research results greatly stimulated Xiao Qian.
Knowledge cannot be converted into wealth. This is not a phenomenon that should occur in a normal society.
No one will do it, he will do it.
For this reason, even if he invests hundreds or hundreds of millions every year, he will persevere.
And his three-dimensional vision goes far beyond scientific research.
He found someone again.
"Mr. Liu, you must be wondering why I invited you here?"
This man's name is Liu Mingzhong, standing among the big guys, he is calm and fearless, and has his own aura.
There is indeed nothing to be afraid of, because one's status does not need to be judged by anyone here.
His identity as the person in charge of China First Heavy Industry Group Co., Ltd. is his greatest confidence.
"I really admire Mr. Xiao's grand plan after listening to it today. I'm afraid Mr. Xiao's invitation to me was not without purpose. People say that Mr. Xiao always makes money. Is there any benefit for him to take care of us?"
Amidst everyone's laughter, Xiao Qian asked: "Mr. Liu, are you not having a good time in the first level?"
CFHI is a national key industrial enterprise and is responsible for many important machinery manufacturing projects in the country. However, like all old heavy industrial enterprises, CFHI is also facing difficulties in transformation.
The most important thing is that many projects in the company are on the verge of being eliminated. However, so many employees are still waiting for help, which has become the heaviest burden on the company.
As the person in charge, Liu Mingzhong is also worried about his hair turning gray.
"Hey, aren't all heavy industry enterprises in Northeast China like this now? If Mr. Xiao is willing to give you some advice, I'd be very grateful."
Secretary Xu comforted him and said: "Old Liu, we, Mr. Xiao, can't you understand? Once he finds you, it will be good luck."
Xiao Qian waved her hands repeatedly, not daring to bear this title.
However, he also stated the purpose of inviting Liu Mingzhong.
"Mr. Liu, you have heard our plan. We plan to build a modern mechanical planting park. What do we need most? Various types of agricultural machinery. You know this time we ordered various machinery from Germany, and the cost is
How much?"
Liu Mingzhong asked subconsciously: "How much?"
Xiao Qian stretched out a slap and said sadly: "Five hundred million, a full five hundred million."
"hiss……"
Everyone present could not help but gasp.
It cost 500 million just to purchase agricultural machinery. What a big deal!
However, Xiao Qian's thinking was obviously different from theirs.
"Although 500 million is too much, for production needs, there is no problem. But what I want to ask Mr. Liu most is, why can't we produce such machinery ourselves?"
The blue sky and white sun, thousands of miles of cold air, instantly penetrated Liu Mingzhong's consciousness!
