Chapter 197: Carry out the crackdown on counterfeiting to the end
In late September, the fragrance of corn fills the air, and golden harvest scenes can be seen everywhere in the fields and village courtyards.
For corn seed companies, October 15th is the beginning of the new year’s corn seed sales.
Before this, the most important thing is to return the seed particles to the warehouse, or to find the desired source.
Long Province, Zhangye.
This is known as the Gobi Wetland Ecological City, and it is also one of the areas with the best corn seed production conditions in China.
The seed companies in Zhangye are a mixed bag, including companies that started out as sewers, companies that started out as loan sharks, and companies with money laundering backgrounds.
Some people compare people in the seed industry to prostitutes. Whenever they think of the Chinese seed industry, they think of bitches in heaven and earth. This is a crime in thinking.
There is a saying widely circulated by underground seed industry workers in Zhangye.
Violate the laws of the country and be your own person.
Some dealers take 30,000 to 40,000 yuan in cash and dare to go to the village to trick farmers into planting thousands of acres of land without any back-up funds.
It can be said that four taels and a thousand pounds have been played to the extreme. Thirty or forty thousand can leverage a multi-million business.
Hongman Town, Heiyun Village.
Wang Chengdong naturally does not have the courage. He is a laid-off employee of a state-owned enterprise.
Businesses depend on seeds for survival.
In the past few years, two to three hundred acres of seed corn land have been planted, but it has been privately planted in the corners and corners, with no sunlight. It looks like a thief and a young lady.
When I look in the mirror every day and see myself, it’s like seeing the unlicensed vendors in many cities.
Humanized management by urban management personnel can bring them a little happiness. In fact, the quality of the seeds is their personality.
Wang Chengdong also looks for seeds for customers from other places. According to the local saying, he digs out ditches.
Taking the ditch is also a deck.
Infringement, seed theft, arbitrage, severe homogeneity, digging trenches, prying off bases... Wang Chengdong has become accustomed to all kinds of chaos.
Because for traders and seed companies who have no innovation ability and dare to do any bad things, he is one of their own.
“One of my own?”
“I have never done anything to harm farmers.”
“Seed companies buy seeds at low prices and sell them to farmers at high prices. Not a good bird.”
Wang Chengdong sneered, thieves also have a way, this is a grand thief. There is Robin Hood in foreign countries, and there is a plum blossom in China.
He has never regretted it, because he believes that there is a red line that he has never crossed, that is, harming the interests of farmers.
As for the seed companies?
In his eyes, that is another hungry wolf!
A seductive voice still echoed in Wang Chengdong's mind.
"Take a vote. The price of Tianyu No. 1 last year reached 70 yuan/kg. This year's demonstration will be so popular that the price will definitely be raised."
"How much purchase price will Tianhe give you?" ? 1.25 yuan per catty, send it to the beggar."
"Sell some to Lilijin, we will pay you 2.5 yuan! , the total is tens of thousands of dollars!”
“I’ll get some Tianyu No. 1 parent seeds next year, and I can buy them at a high price.”
“ After all, you can earn more than 100,000 yuan in half a year!”
It’s really crazy!
Wang Chengdong thought of the Agricultural University 108 and Zhengdan 958 from a few years ago. Whichever variety was the most popular, people immediately went to dig out the ditch.
A swarm of bees rushed in, making reservations and purchasing from farmers. After obtaining the parent seeds, it evolved into large-scale private propagation.
Don’t ask him how he knew, because he also privately reproduced Zheng Dan 958.
LiLijin Seed Co., Ltd. is also a super player in the deck Zhengdan 958.
Few people in the outside world know where the production base of Lilijin is, but Wang Chengdong knows that it has settled in Heiyun Village openly.
Oh,
it shouldn’t be called Zheng Dan 958.
LiLijin gave it a new name, Jinyu No. 2. It passed the provincial variety approval in a certain province and has become famous in some areas.
It is normal for a variety to have several variety names. Everyone is selling them, but they are actually the same variety.
The hot sales and high profits of Tianyu No. 1 last year aroused the crazy pursuit of this group of people, and the "ditch digging" has reached a crazy stage.
It’s just that Tianhe has full technical guidance from the beginning of sowing. It is not easy to obtain parent seeds on a large scale.
Therefore, seed farmers have become the target of this group of people.
Wang Chengdong is naturally happy to earn more money.
He walked to the seed production field, and the large and neat ears of corn cobs filled him with joy.
When he saw Tianhe's staff testing and taking samples in the field, he couldn't help showing a look of disgust.
It takes some effort to hide the seed yield.
After seeing him, Tianhe’s staff also came over.
"Master Wang, when will your corn be broken, so that we can organize labor in a unified manner."
"Wait a few more days, dry it in the sun, and the moisture will be less. Do you think so? ?”
The staff frowned and said, "Judging from today's sampling results, the water content has completely reached the standard."
Wang Chengdong smiled and said: "I know, aren't everyone in the village busy harvesting now? I don't Urgent, let them collect it first."
"Oh, by the way, the insurance premium will increase by 20% next year."
"What, 20% increase?"
"Yes, the company has already issued a document, and will organize a unified trip to the countryside to sign the contract later."
Wang Chengdong looked at the appearance of the two children, and they didn't look like they were lying. He smiled and said, "The relationship is good. Tianhe is really a good company."
A 20% increase?
Due to the high output of Tianyu No. 1, the premium per mu is much higher. At this point, the premium per mu is almost 3,000 yuan!
Wang Chengdong just felt crazy.
Thinking of the grains of gold, he felt furious. If I want the seeds, you must not increase the price for me.
Watching Wang Chengdong's leaving figure, Tianhe's staff gathered together and murmured.
“I feel like something is wrong!”
“Yes, do you have a guilty conscience?”
“It’s very possible that there are several seed production companies in Heiyun Village. It's Wang Chengdong who got close to that group of people."
"Oh, it's the ditch diggers again."
"We catch a batch every year, and we keep catching them every year."
"The profits are still too high."
"Report it to the superior. Now the company has set up an anti-counterfeiting team, and we will provide information on suspected cases." Just target it.”
“Can you kill it?”
On the other side, Wang Chengdong was wandering around the surrounding seed production fields, surrounded by Tianyu No. 1.
The output seems to be low.
Walking along, listening for news.
“Aunt Zhang, Tianhe’s insurance premium has been raised, do you know?”
“I know, I know, it’s two to three thousand a year.”
“ Hey, Brother Wu, your corn is really bright this year. It looks like golden beans. How many pounds can it produce?”
"Hey, Wang Chengdong, I know what you are up to. I think you are almost done. Tianhe's mother's insurance has increased again. Isn't it good to make money honestly?"
Wang Chengdong looked anxious. , "Why am I being dishonest? I will sue you for slander, slander you!"
"Humph, I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet."
Wang Chengdong No longer lingering, I rode my bicycle, walked a few corners, and quietly turned into an inconspicuous small seed factory.
It is said to be a factory, but in fact it is just a small yard. The factory only performs simple processing, and then puts it in large hemp bags and transports it to the headquarters of the gold.
"Yaozu! Yaozu!"
"Stop shouting!" A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes walked out.
"What's going on?"
Wang Chengdong looked at the sanctimonious Li Yaozu, and no one could have imagined that this man was actually a habitual criminal.
After noticing that there was no one else around, he said proudly: "The seeds can be sold to you, but the price will be increased by 20%."
"Are you thinking about eating shit? It has gone up by 20%. Isn't that 3 yuan per catty?"
Wang Chengdong threw his hands and crossed his chest and glanced randomly into the room, "Tianhe's insurance premium has been increased by 20%! ”
“What? Is Tianhe Seed Industry crazy?”
Li Yaozu couldn’t understand that Tianhe’s cost of acreage insurance was high enough to bring trouble to other seed industry companies. Huge pressure. Now that it has suddenly risen again, isn’t it giving money to farmers?
How can small businesses like them survive? Aren't you forcing everyone to deck Tianyu No. 1?
"You can ask, the news should have spread by now."
"Then you must ask."
After a while, Li Yaozu learned from multiple channels Tianhe really raised the insurance premium.
In an instant, Li Yaozu gritted his teeth.
"Buy, 3 yuan is 3 yuan."
"Don't be so cruel. If you sell it for thirty or forty one catty, you will make much more than us."
Li Yaozu's face changed. He changed and said with a smile: "Before sowing next spring, we must find a way to get some parent seeds of Tianyu No. 1 for us."
"That is not easy, I will try my best."
Li Yaozu stared at him fiercely, "It's necessary, don't forget, we are all in the same group."
Wang Chengdong pursed his lips and looked at this ugly face.
Tianhe did not publicize the news of raising insurance premiums per mu.
No need for publicity.
The seed production bases are organized into villages, and the Tianhe staff only need to mention them casually.
The news spreads like a virus.
Tianhe’s seed producers feel like it’s the Chinese New Year, how can they be unhappy? Suddenly the income increased by several hundred.
With two or three acres of land, that’s more than a thousand yuan.
Ordinary farmers are easily satisfied and will also think about the good of the company. Tianhe's anti-counterfeiting team also took advantage of the trend to visit villages and households at this time.
There is no airtight wall when digging trenches. Many ordinary farmers know some news.
They all provided information to the anti-counterfeiting team.
However, in the eyes of other seed production companies, an increase in premium per acre would be a disaster, and seed producers are clamoring for an increase in premium per acre.
If you can't withstand the pressure, you can only give up the best base;
Or you may increase the insurance premium, but the identity of these people is very questionable.
After Li Denghai finished the phone call, he turned around and learned that Tianhe had significantly increased the insurance premium.
“What does Tianhe want to do?”
"Isn't this forcing others to play decks?"
Li Denghai was puzzled. This was also not good news for Denghai Seed Industry. No matter whether he followed or not, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Although Tianhe has been established for a short time, every operation is extremely uncomfortable.
“Keep an eye on Tianhe Seed Industry from now on. He is our main competitor.”
“Especially for Xianyu 335, we must not only maintain the existing market, but also further develop Expansion.”
......
Jiuquan, a street of seeds.
Guo Yang and Ning Xiaojing pretended to be farmers and walked into a seed store. Ning Xiaojing bought a bag of corn seeds for 50 yuan.
While the female shopkeeper was picking up the goods, the male shopkeeper suddenly appeared. After looking around, he broke the silence.
“Not for sale.”
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the female shopkeeper quickly retrieved the seeds.
Seeing that the matter had been exposed, Guo Yang glanced at Ning Xiaojing, asked for the money back, and walked out of the door quickly.
A word floated behind her: "If you come back next time, your legs will be broken."
After walking out of the door, Ning Xiaojing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Luo Xiu who looked like an iron tower.
Guo Yang visually inspected the street, which was only two hundred meters long, but there were thirty or forty seed shops lined up on both sides.
Although it is the off-season, many seed shops have posters advertising various seeds on the walls or beams in front of them.
After some investigation, it was found that the seeds in almost every store were fishy.
“Is there Zhengdan 958?”
“Try this?”
“Isn’t this Jinyu No. 2?”
"The effect is the same, and it's cheaper."
Every store has similar rhetoric. Even Tianhe No. 1, which is out of stock, can be found in seed shops.
But Tianyu has so many agents, and in Jiuquan there are only direct stores. There is no doubt that these are fake seeds for the deck.
As soon as the news of raising insurance premiums was raised, the anti-counterfeiting team led by Weiguan successively received clues from various places.
The next step is to collect evidence.
And what about Guo Yang? After reading the relevant information, I became curious.
He and Ning Xiaojing came to Zizi Street for an unannounced visit.
As Guo Yang expected, the situation was extremely bad.
Almost no popular seeds are spared, and deck infringement has become a collective carnival for illegal merchants.
Walking around all morning, Ning Xiaojing was also exposed to various shocking situations: "Isn't the country vigorously cracking down on fake seeds?"
“At this stage, we are mainly cracking down on fake seeds with fake brands, fake packaging, and fake procedures. However, deck seeds are different. For those with variety approval procedures, even if they are caught, most of them will receive financial compensation and it is difficult to involve criminal penalties. ”
“And the infringement of the deck is like Moutai in Erguotou bottle, but it is still sold at the price of Erguotou. No one objects except the seed companies and compliance dealers who are being decked.”
"What should we do?"
Guo Yang looked at Seed Street, "Innovation is the foundation of the seed industry. The collective carnival brought about by the collective deck can only lead to collective sinking, just like digging one's own grave. ”
“We must fight against counterfeiting! No matter how many miles we travel, or how many costs we pay, Tianhe will persist in the fight against counterfeiting.”
Ning Xiaojing couldn't help but feel shaken. Jiahe Group was completely different from the investment and financing companies he had been in contact with before.
Those are a group of moles who only care about digging roots, and never consider the entire grassland.
Under the leadership of the boss, Jiahe has always been upright, and its corporate image and influence are increasing day by day.
Guo Yang is not as noble as Ning Xiaojing thought. Tianhe occupies the top of breeding, and cracking down on counterfeiting is also for profit.
Raising acre premiums also forces uncompetitive small seed companies into a dead end, and is a commercial tactic.
On the way back, after thinking for a while, Guo Yang took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
“Hello, Mr. Li, I’m Guo Yang.”
On the other side, Li Denghai laughed and said, “It’s rare that I will take the initiative to call me.”< br>
“Hey, didn’t you find someone to invite me to attend the corn seed industry summit? I agreed.”
“That’s a good thing, I can hear my brother’s views on the corn seed industry. , it’s my wish granted.”
Guo Yang said: "Maybe it will make you uncomfortable?"
"Huh?"
"Tianhe wants to crack down on decks to make profits. Do you think everyone will have the same goal at the summit? ”
Li Denghai was stunned. Those who could participate in the summit were all big companies with big names.
But are they all good birds?
Not necessarily.
Playing rogue and not paying the agency fee;
The largest company in the industry has laid off employees on a large scale, and employees are calling everywhere to ask for job introductions. It has even become a spectacle in Zhangye;
Even Longping Hi-Tech, which claims to be the leader in the seed industry, has made its main profits in the past two years from real estate and stock speculation, which is surprising;
There are also loan sharks who started their business...
< br>
The true qualities of a hero can only be seen when the sea is changing. To become bigger and stronger in this industry, there is no one with a kind heart.
As for Tianhe’s goal of cracking down on counterfeiting?
It is very rare,
As far as Li Denghai knows, some large companies also have deck varieties.
“Difficult!”
"Is it difficult not to do it?"
"You are so young and energetic!"
Guo Yang said: "Breeding is not as good as imitation, and imitation is not as good as decking. Variety innovation is getting slower and slower. Domestic corn yield is less than 60% of that of the United States..."
After a moment of silence, Li Denghai sighed: "Denghai Seed Industry also has varieties that have been cheated, but combating cheating is impossible. Mission.”
“Nothing is impossible”
