Chapter 390 Agricultural Innovation Pioneer; Kang Kuan; Exhibition Encounter
“Brothers, I want to start a business.”
At night, in a restaurant in a small town in Guangdong Province, several Jiahe technicians gathered together to drink and chat.
Because the town he was responsible for was the farthest away, Jiang Yi, who arrived late, gave everyone big news as soon as he sat down.
“I started talking drunkenly even before I drank.”
"I'm serious."
"Jiang Yi, if you have any needs in terms of salary, you can ask me directly."
Region Manager Wu Chaoping put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at Asked the others, "The same goes for you."
"It's not about the salary." Jiang Yi said: "In less than two years in Jiahe, the money I earned has exceeded my imagination."< br>
"That's a question of position." Wu Chaoping thought for a while and said in deep thought: "Which area do you want to be responsible for? Tell me, and I will recommend it to you. Now is the critical period for competing with Kang Kuan for the market. You Can’t leave.”
Jiang Yi shook his head again.
The others looked at him in confusion.
In fact, Denong's business has always been very successful. With the seed foundation of Tianhe Seed Industry, as long as you are willing to explore the market more, you can make stable money.
At the same time, in the past year or two, the company has been releasing explosive products frequently.
First, biopesticides and feed additives became popular in export-oriented bases.
For example, Quanwang's "Quick Kill" insecticide brand, a small bag of insecticide can sell for more than 12 yuan, and the profit is extremely huge.
Looking across the country, only ‘Kangkuan’, a subsidiary of DuPont, the world’s top agrochemical company, can compete with it.
DuPont's Kangcuan was only launched last year. The difference is that it was launched globally simultaneously.
At the same time, unlike the Quanwang series such as ‘Quick Kill’, which took the market by storm by breaking through the positive list system of island countries, Kang Kuan is targeting the rice leaf roller and stem borer.
Coincidentally, in the past two years, there was a large outbreak of rice leaf roller in the south.
In the early days of its introduction into the domestic market, Kangkuan showed its high activity against rice leaf rollers, long duration of effect, and non-harming to fish and shrimp, and it quickly won popularity among users.
The popular pesticide Fipronil was classified as a restricted pesticide due to its safety to bees and aquatic organisms, quickly giving up a large market to Kangkuan.
Compared with the mainstream avermectin pharmaceuticals, Kangkuan’s high activity and long-lasting effect also won the competition.
If we say that in the domestic insecticide market last year, DuPont Kangkuan and Quanwang Susui were the new ones.
Then the two began to run wildly this year.
But the domestic market is too big and there are too many types of crops. No matter how excellent market management is, it is impossible to reach the peak in one or two years.
In addition to rice, Kangkuan can also promote corn, cotton, vegetables, and fruit trees...
In addition to export-oriented bases, Susha has room for promotion, and other markets cannot be used for nothing. .
At least for the past two years, the only one in China who can compete with Kang Kuan is Quan Wang's quick kill.
The two have not yet competed face to face, because the market is big enough, but the day when each will enter each other's hinterland is not far away.
One farmer promotion meeting after another.
It is also necessary to prevent channel merchants from various places from competing for goods and bargaining. In this regard, both Tianhe and Quanwang have performed very strongly.
Layer-level logistics scan code tracking, cross-regional management with individual responsibilities, strict reward and punishment mechanism, etc.
As a small team, each of them has participated in more than 100 farmers' meetings in the past three months.
Everyone has experienced several times accompanying the smuggled goods party to the house of the smuggled goods party to receive the goods. This classic scene is a treatment only for best-selling products.
There are nearly 400 full-time promoters like them across the country.
Similarly, DuPont has more than 200 promoters nationwide, so DuPont does not have an advantage in terms of numbers.
Thinking of this, Wu Chaoping's heart froze, "It's not DuPont poaching you, right?"
The others were also surprised after realizing it.
It is really possible.
Apart from anything else, in terms of welfare benefits, only foreign companies can compare with domestic peers.
“Jiang Yi, don’t do anything stupid. In addition to DuPont’s high potential of Kangkuan, Cairn’s indoxacarb is better. However, there is competition between the two. Kangkuan will definitely seize the indoxacarb market. . ”
“Yes, now we have several potential hits. It’s time to expand our territory, how much money we can earn!”
"Eat something first." Wu Chaoping poured Jiang Yi a glass of wine, "Speak slowly, we must explain this matter clearly today."
Jiang Yi, who had been hungry for a long time, was not polite and sat down. Then I pulled out a large piece of salt-baked chicken and started to chew on it, and then drank a glass of cold beer.
During this period, the others were looking at him intently.
Jiang Yi smiled unconsciously.
"I will not surrender to the enemy, and entrepreneurship is not an empty talk. I really want to return to my hometown to start a business."
Wu Chaoping and others are still staring at him, "Agricultural entrepreneurship is a dead end. Road.”
“Don’t read too much about getting rich.”
"Jiang Yi really likes to read The Book of Getting Rich."
"I always like to comment, saying that the program is fake."
Jiang Yi was almost confused by one sentence, "Stop. Stop, let me see, you are afraid that one day I will become the boss and you will have to come to me to sell agricultural supplies."
"Tsk"
Wu Chaoping asked: "What are you doing? Suddenly thinking about starting a business? ”
Jiang Yi took out his newly purchased smartphone from his trouser pocket and said with a smile: "The group has a very interesting project today."
"What project?"
"Five Acres for Daben. "Jiang Yi said: "The boss personally mentioned it. If the group wants to incubate high-quality agricultural projects, insiders will give priority to the resources to support it."
"What?"
" Real or fake? ”
The group of people were so excited that they all gathered in front of Jiang Yi's phone and started reading.
“No, you use your mobile phone to read it!”
“Yes.”
After a while, everyone had finished watching the Huinong.com plan that was circulated within the group. The launch of the Wumu Changdaben channel, as well as related introductions.
“Hiss, not only priority resource support, but also high-quality project recommendations.”
"The first batch of people to upload video content will also receive traffic support."
"Not only that, but also financial loans."
Everyone stopped eating and drinking. Where can we discuss the details of exchanging five acres for a big run.
Only Jiang Yi was eating in Feng Zhuan Can Yun.
This appearance of everyone is also expected.
No one has a dream of becoming a farmer, but not everyone has the courage to risk it all.
Food, rice, oil and salt, peace and joy are the lives most people prefer.
What’s more, it’s a company like Jiahe with excellent benefits and benefits, and it’s easy to get out but not easy to get in.
Sure enough, despite the heated discussion, Jiang Yi was the only one in this small group who decided to start a business.
“Brothers, as long as we live in wealth and honor, don’t forget each other.”
"Easy to say, easy to say. If any of you are assigned to Nanning in the future, just come to me."
"Haha, if you really buy a Daben in the future, you have to drive it for me for two days..."
Jiang Yi also looks forward to the day when he can trade five acres for a big ben.
……
“Dingle bell…”
On the side of the road, in a business car, Guo Yang, who was planning to go to the Jinmen Watch and Clock Fair and meet Ge Wenyao by chance, didn't answer the phone until the last moment and was the first to speak out.
"Yuan Wenwu has been taught a lesson by me."
"Oh."
Qu Yang took back what he wanted to say angrily, and quickly changed his words, "God Heseed Industry will fully support the "Five Acres for Daben" project."
"It's okay, I didn't say it came out as soon as I thought about it."
"Huh??" Qu Yang was stunned, "Yuan Wenwu said that? His grandma is a bear, where does she get the courage!"
"Maybe you gave it to me."
"Absolutely nothing." Qu Yang denied it, paused for a while, and then said: "But the fluctuations in people's hearts are indeed quite big, and many front-line salesmen are moved. .
Yuan Wenwu is under a lot of pressure. In addition to seeds and feed, he also has several potential hot-selling pesticides such as Qingmao and Kuaishou. This year’s performance growth is not high enough, which is a bit unjustified.
But DuPont’s. The growth of the Kangkuan insecticide market is also very strong. At this stage, it depends on who is faster and who is more powerful..."
The brand Kangkuan should be familiar to every agricultural person.
“Use Kangkuan in rice to increase yield by 130%.” This slogan will be widely circulated in the future, but it also performs well on other crops.
It can be said that for nearly 10 years in its previous life, Kangkuan was truly the number one brand of pesticides, and it also earned huge profits for the company behind it.
It wasn’t until the patent expired and domestic manufacturers frantically expanded production that Kangkuan’s price fell to the bottom.
But in fact, Quanwang's quick-kill positioning is higher, the price is more expensive, and now it is more differentiated competition.
Guo Yang pondered: "Strictly speaking, Denong's agricultural supplies are the channel dealers of Tianhe and Quanwang. Only organic fertilizer is Denong's own business."
"Uh..." Qu Yang said : "All our salesmen have also been scattered."
"Intensify recruitment efforts." Guo Yang said: "There is no shortage of agricultural students in the country."
"Well, Okay.”
Qu Yang didn’t know what to say for a moment.
I have mixed feelings about the Five Acres for Daben project. Although many people like to watch the story of getting rich, everyone in the industry knows that imitating entrepreneurs will always lead to success.
Huinong.com will forget about imitating and getting rich projects, but it also recommends incubating and supporting agricultural entrepreneurship projects.
The risk is extremely high.
Once the impact of the project expands and the recommended projects fail on a large scale, no one knows how much public opinion it will arouse. Even with Jiahe’s size, it may not be able to bear it.
"I have prepared a list. You can ask the nursery to prepare the seeds and seedlings on it."
"Okay."
After pondering for a while, Guo Yang asked again: "How are the overseas market channels?"
"The channel contracts in North America, South America, and Eastern Europe have been signed. A batch of corn, soybean and rapeseed seeds have been put on the market."
"Okay."
Sitting in a car on the side of a road in the capital, Guo Yang saw someone walking in the distance. Lin Keqing got out of the car and waved to the other party.
"I leave Tianhe Seed Industry's hope of becoming global leader to you."
"Don't worry if you leave it to me, boss."
Qu Yang said excitedly, before realizing the financial After freedom, some people like to enjoy life, but there are also people who want to change the world. Jiahe has gathered a large number of such people.
"That's it, hang up, I have something to do."
Lin Keqing was still wearing a pair of black trousers, a white T-shirt, and a ponytail, full of youthful vitality. Also carrying a plastic bag.
Seeing this scene, Guo Yang felt much better.
At this time, another call came in. I glanced at it and saw that it was Yu Qin. I pressed the button and ended the call.
"You've been waiting for a long time, Mr. Guo."
"Why don't you change it? We agreed to call him Senior Brother, or Brother Yang. Forget it, let's call him Brother Yang. It sounds more friendly."
"That's great, Brother Yang." Lin Keqing shouted happily and picked up the bag in his hand.
"I brought it for you."
"What?" Only then did Guo Yang see that there was a food box in the bag.
“Jiangfen.” Lin Keqing smiled and said, “It’s still Wuwei’s sand rice noodles.”
“Did you make it yourself?” Guo Yang asked in surprise.
“Yeah, so I’m late.”
"It's okay, it's okay. I have to trouble you to accompany me to the watch exhibition this time, and then fly back to Wuwei together. Besides, there is my favorite Shami Noodles."
Shami Noodles are a popular summer snack near Minqin. Every autumn, villagers living on the edge of the desert often bring cloth sheets and willow sticks to "beat Shami".
Among desert delicacies, Shami is definitely one of the most precious. Its growth cycle is shorter than annual leave and difficult to collect, but it has a unique flavor and nutritional value.
In the original memory, sand rice noodles are definitely one of the most unforgettable delicacies in his youth.
So Guo Yang didn't mean to lie. He gave a thumbs up, took the rice noodles, and praised: "Awesome! Junior sister is very thoughtful, thank you~"
"As long as you like it."
After Guo Yang and Lin Keqing got into the back seat of the commercial vehicle, they couldn't wait to open the food boxes.
Snow-white rice noodles, paired with bright red chili oil and green scallions, make people appetite.
“I ate it.”
Lin Keqing smiled and nodded.
Luo Xiu, who was driving the car, said: "Boss, let me take my share as the co-pilot."
Guo Yang curled his lips, "Why, are you afraid that I'll finish it for you in one go?"
"It's possible." Luo Xiu changed his previous silent, cold and dedicated image and said, "I've been craving for rice noodles for a long time. I went to Minqin several times and couldn't eat them."
"That's a bit of a pity." Lin Keqing covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Sham rice noodles are a must-eat specialty of Wuwei."
Luo Xiu said: "Until now, I don't even know what Shami is like."
"It's delicious. Junior sister's cooking is really good."
Guo Yang, who had eaten a few bites, first He showed an expression of great enjoyment, and then said to Luo Xiu: "You have seen a lot of Shapeng, but you don't know it.
I have seen it in Minqin, Jiuquan, and even in Laomei. Passed."
Luo Xiu racked his brains and finally shook his head helplessly.
Lin Keqing also asked in surprise: "There is also saponin grass in the United States?"
"Yes." Guo Yang nodded while eating, "But there are more plains in the United States, and saponin grass is in the United States." It is an invasive plant and has caused a lot of damage to the United States."
"There is also this matter."
Guo Yang did not hesitate to show his knowledge of plants.
“Tumbleweed is known as the most arrogant grass in the world. As soon as autumn comes, it will make the United States miserable. It will roll wherever the wind blows, so it is also called tumbleweed. , there are many scenes about it in many movies about the old American West...
Blocking rivers, burying houses and towns, causing fires..."
While eating, Guo Yang spread knowledge about saponica to Lin Keqing, making the latter nod in confusion. Finally, he sighed.
“The old Americans are not that good either! "
"Junior sister's comment is spot on. Guo Yang said with a smile: "In the past two years, the United States has been in a state of disarray due to biological invasion.
Asian carp, caltrops, and fire ants are far more difficult to deal with than tumbleweeds. ”
Although the Internet has developed in China in the past two years, except for a few traditional media reports on Asian carp, there is very little relevant information on the Internet.
Guo Yang's witty narration made Lin Keqing smile like a flower.
Luo Xiu was driving intently, but his attention was attracted by the laughter from behind many times, and he sighed inwardly.
"The boss is not normal. No, he should be normal. Alas, it doesn't matter if he is right or not, as long as Sha Mifen is still there."
…
After more than two hours' drive from Beijing to Tianjin, Guo Yang and Lin Keqing had a great time chatting.
But when we arrived, it was almost evening.
Guo Yang took Lin Keqing to rent a dress. He originally wanted to buy it, but the latter firmly disagreed. If it weren't for Guo Yang's face, he might not even go to the watch exhibition.
Guo Yang could only agree reluctantly.
He was really amazed by Lin Keqing who was wearing a cheongsam, as if he was a different person.
Loose and plain clothes hid her beauty.
It’s a pity that I can’t buy this set of cheongsam.
The next day, Guo Yang saw Lin Keqing with light makeup in the hotel lobby, and was once again stunned.
Elegant posture, graceful temperament, cheongsam beauty, peerless elegance, but when it came to her mouth, it turned into a sentence, "Good-looking."
Lin Keqing was looked at by the eyes of the people around her. Somewhat embarrassed.
"Let's go quickly, brother."
The clocks and watches of Jinmen are on display at the Holiday Inn Hotel in the Economic and Technological Development Zone.
Brand watch dealers from all over the country stopped in front of the dazzling watch booths to appreciate the colorful, novel and unique various exquisite watches.
Under the light, all kinds of watches leave a deep impression.
Swiss MIDO, Mingwei watches, Aviva ceramic diamond watches, and Aegis series watches;
Howard Miller of the old America;
Diarte of Italy;
Kennings of Germany;
Oriental table ORIENTJAPAN of the island country;
China The products did not fall behind at all. Both the EBO watch from Pengcheng and the Seagull watch from Jinmen left a deep impression on Guo Yang.
Perhaps due to preconceptions, Guo Yang felt that the craftsmanship of Seagull watches had reached an extremely exquisite level.
The "minute repeater" and "double tourbillon" watches can all reflect the style of the world-class watch industry.
Unfortunately, high-end watches can basically only survive through the circle. In fact, many people have prejudices against domestic brands and have a natural rejection of them.
Guo Yang didn’t know why Ge Wenyao was so obsessed with Seagull, just like he was obsessed with acquiring Jahwa.
However, after walking around the exhibition, Guo Yang did not see Ge Wenyao.
"Isn't this old man not here? Logically speaking, he shouldn't be. Seagull is also one of the organizers of this watch exhibition!"
"Brother Yang, what are you muttering about?" Lin Keqing was a little confused. Asked: "Did you find no one?"
"Yeah."
Guo Yang did not hide the purpose of his visit to the watch exhibition from Lin Keqing.
He wished that the whole world knew that Jiahe was interested in Jiahua. Unfortunately, the media was more interested in discussing Ping An and Jiahua together.
When someone mentioned Jiahe and Jiahua, Ping An's supporters sneered with disdain.
“The combination of agriculture and fashion industry is as chilling as the combination of a bad old man in the countryside and a lady in the city.”
“Financial insurance and Ge Wenyao’s fashion industry group More suitable!"
Looking at Lin Keqing, who was a little uncomfortable with this situation, Guo Yang felt a little guilty and was looking for someone, ignoring Lin Keqing's predicament.
“If you have a watch you like, I’ll give you one.”
Lin Keqing shook his head as expected, "No, it's too expensive."
"There are cheaper ones too." Guo Yang took Lin Keqing back to the Haiou booth, "It doesn't look bad either. , Our country’s diplomatic elite also likes Seagull watches.”
If Uncle Wang had the same model at this time, Guo Yang would have to collect one, but unfortunately he couldn’t remember which one it was.
A staff member from Seagull came up to us, also a woman wearing a cheongsam.
"Sir, Madam, what services do you need?"
Guo Yang put his hands on the exhibition stand, looked at the watches in the glass cabinet one by one, and finally selected a good-looking watch.
“Take this out for this guy to try.”
Lin Keqing took one look at it and his head shook like a rattle, “It’s too expensive.”
“Try it but don’t buy it.” Guo Yang said with a smile, and looked at the saleswoman again.
The female salesperson had already caught a glimpse of the Seagull minute repeater watch exposed on Guo Yang's wrist. It is Seagull's top-notch complex precious metal watch.
Everything from the whole to the details is perfect!
If it were a first-tier Swiss brand, the value of this watch and its brand could easily exceed one million.
This is a loyal customer of Seagull!
The female salesperson judged it at first sight and quickly showed a professional smile to Lin Keqing, "Yes, ma'am, try it without buying."
Lin Keqing looked He looked at Guo Yang who looked encouraging, and then looked at the exquisitely crafted watch.
"Okay, let's give it a try, but I agreed that I don't want it if you give it to me."
Although these watches are expensive, Lin Keqing knows that they are nothing to her cheap senior brother.
"I definitely won't buy it." Guo Yang smiled and said, "I'm buying it for myself."
The female salesperson looked at the two people talking. The female salesperson was outstanding in appearance, and the male salesperson With a lot of wealth and gold, she was 80% sure that she could close this order.
With the help of sales, Lin Keqing finally replaced it with this Seagull Tourbillon.
The light watch shines with a unique luster, but when worn on Lin Keqing's hand, with a slight lift of the wrist, time flows, a touch of fashion, showing elegance.
Guo Yang smiled and gave a thumbs-up gesture, "A country with a beautiful city is one of the best in the world!"
Lin Keqing said a little embarrassedly: "You are exaggerating. "
The female salesperson said promptly: "It's not an exaggeration at all. It matches your temperament. It's really elegant and fashionable."
"No matter how beautiful it is, you can't afford it. I won’t buy it either.” Lin Keqing carefully took off the Seagull Tourbillon and saw that the male protagonist didn’t say anything, so the saleswoman had to put it back.
"How about it, it's okay." Guo Yang said to Lin Keqing again: "Try the other ones, they're already here, don't try more."
Lin Keqing was surprised, and there was another A little eager to try, "Isn't this good?"
Guo Yang looked at the saleswoman again, who still nodded.
Lin Keqing asked doubtfully: "Aren't you still looking for someone?"
"If the person I'm looking for comes today, he will definitely come to the Seagull booth. Just wait here. ." Guo Yang said with a smile: "If you don't come, waiting is not an option. It can relieve your boredom if you try. Don't worry and try."
"Then try it?"
"Try whichever one you want to try." Guo Yang pointed to the exhibition stand, looking like he was not short of money, attracting crowds of people who didn't know why.
It also attracts more people to Seagull. I don’t know whether it’s looking at watches or people.
Led by the saleswoman and echoed by Guo Yang, Lin Keqing tried one after another. In addition to luxury watches, she also specially tried watches priced between one and two thousand yuan.
The female salesperson’s face changed for a moment.
Guo Yang also admired it while keeping his eyes on the field, but he never saw Ge Wenyao.
It wasn’t until almost 11 o’clock that I saw Ge Wenyao appearing at the exhibition stand of Pengcheng Yibo Watch.
But there was a person next to him, which made Guo Yang tighten.
One of the protagonists active in the financial media during this period is Chen Gang, general manager of the Direct Investment Department of Ping An Trust.
He is also the operator of Ping An’s acquisition of Jahwa.
After confirming that he had read correctly, Guo Yang relaxed again and thought about countermeasures. It would be a bit embarrassing to go and say hello directly.
If we don’t meet face to face, isn’t this time in vain?
"What's wrong? Brother Yang?" Lin Keqing's voice brought Guo Yang back from his thoughts.
Looked at the seagull on Lin Keqing's wrist, and then looked at the other people beside Ge Wenyao. One of them should be Wang Deming, the general manager of the seagull.
Guo Yang had an idea. This time, it was not for anything else, but to suppress Ping An again.
You are just a department boss, and he came in person. Not only did he come, he also proved his sincerity for Haiou products...
Guo Yang nodded slightly to Lin Keqing, and then gently He knocked on the glass cabinet and looked at the tired saleswoman.
“Which is the most expensive Seagull watch?”
“Of course it is the Seagull double tourbillon!” The female salesperson was shocked and said: “There are not many such craftsmanships even in Switzerland. See you!”
“How much is the most expensive one?”
"480,000 yuan." The saleswoman looked at him expectantly.
“It’s too cheap.” Guo Yang was a little impatient, and Chen Gang’s smile in the distance seemed to slap him in the face.
"Is there any Seagull worth more than one million yuan!"
"This...this..." The female salesperson was a little anxious and spoke incoherently for a while before saying, "Seagull plans to launch a product early next year. This watch meets the standards.
This watch integrates tourbillon, perpetual calendar, and minute repeater technology into one. It has a total of 435 parts and the manufacturing process is very complicated..."
"Are you accepting the reservation?"
The female salesperson swallowed her saliva and nodded as she could not help but tremble, but she still did not forget to remind her, "The price is 1.68 million yuan."
Guo Yang waved his hand, "Go find your boss to sign the contract."
After the female salesperson repeatedly confirmed that she really wanted to place an order, she quickly walked out of the exhibition hall.
Looking at the direction the saleswoman was going, Guo Yang smiled, then turned around calmly, pretending to discuss various watches with Lin Keqing.
