Chapter 137 Unexpected Gains
Guan Yuntian came up to Deputy County Magistrate Liu, bowed and asked: "County Magistrate Liu, what advice do you have? I am willing to listen attentively."
"How can I dare to teach in front of Mr. Guan? I have an idea that I want to share with you. I wonder what Mr. Guan would like?"
"County Magistrate Liu, please speak."
"Do you still remember the agricultural project I talked about with you when we first met?"
"Well, although it took a long time, I still have an impression. Please tell me what you think."
"The so-called agricultural projects are intensively processed products using agricultural and sideline products as the main raw materials, because their direct consumers are each of us. I think such projects have good prospects."
"Yes, food is the most important thing for the people. Anyone who opens their eyes will eat and drink. This is a vast market with huge potential. County Magistrate Liu, do you have any specific plans?" Guan Yuntian said.
"Look, according to the geographical conditions of Fuyuan County, especially in the direction of your hometown, most of them are in mountainous and hilly areas, and the per capita cultivated land area is very small. I have been thinking about whether those mountainous and hilly areas can be utilized? According to my experience in the past few years
Based on the experience gained from many field trips, I think it is possible.”
"Oh, so County Magistrate Liu has thought carefully about it?"
"That's not to say, the idea may not be mature, but I think the direction is similar."
"County Magistrate Liu, please share your thoughts in detail."
"It is said that mountainous hills are suitable for planting hawthorn walnuts. Based on the domestic and foreign consumer markets and the potential value of the products, I think it is more beneficial to plant walnuts. First of all, the nutritional value of walnuts is unparalleled. In addition, the deep processing industry of walnuts can be made large-scale and can definitely become a
A new economic growth point for enterprises." Deputy County Magistrate Liu is the first graduate of the Agricultural College in the new era majoring in planting, and has a comprehensive understanding of common crops and cash crops.
"However, our line of work is traditional manufacturing, and we are completely outsiders in planting! County Magistrate Liu, even though I come from a rural area, I know nothing about crop planting." Guan Yuntian spread his hands.
"It is true that Changda Group is a traditional manufacturing company, but Mr. Guan, you are not an expert in oil refining, power generation, tire manufacturing and cord fabrics! But this does not prevent you from doing a good job in the company, don't you think?
"
"Yes, I understand what County Magistrate Liu means. Although we don't understand the planting industry, we can hire experts in the planting industry. But how feasible is it to plant a plant like walnut?"
"Based on my many years of analysis and observation of the environment, climate, and soil in the mountainous and hilly areas in the northeast of Fuyuan County, combined with the conditions in other similar areas in the country, and the natural conditions suitable for walnut cultivation, I think that area is very suitable for growing walnuts.
"
"County Magistrate Liu, you are an expert in this field. Your analysis and judgment are absolutely reasonable. Although the mountainous and hilly areas of Northeast China are suitable for walnut cultivation, and the nutritional value of walnuts is unquestionable, everyone knows the taste of this food. What do you think?
How big will the market be in the future?”
“If you want to engage in large-scale planting, don’t expect that direct consumption by consumers will form a large-scale market. In fact, because of its poor taste, walnuts do not occupy a high share of consumers’ snacks.
"Deputy County Magistrate Liu said.
"Then how should the market be developed in the future?"
"I said at the beginning that the deep processing of walnuts can form an industry. If we want to develop a stable and large market, we must take the road of deep processing after large-scale planting."
“In other words, processing walnuts into various
manufactures?"
"Your idea still does not go beyond the scope of snack foods. According to statistics from developed countries and domestic actual conditions, with the improvement of people's living standards, social demand for high-grade vegetable oil has increased rapidly. People's daily consumption of soybean oil, vegetable oil
Seed oil and olive oil are just mass consumer goods. When peanut oil first appeared a few years ago, ordinary consumers thought it was a rarity. Now peanut oil has gradually become more popular. According to relevant experts, walnut oil will be the next step.
It will become a must-have item for some high-end families.”
In order to effectively utilize the land resources in the mountainous area in the northeastern part of the county, Deputy County Magistrate Liu has conducted long-term research and inspection on plants suitable for planting in mountainous hills in recent years, and even has a relatively in-depth understanding of subsequent deep processing.
"Oh, you are talking about processing large-scale walnuts into walnut oil in the future. How big is the market?"
"Someone has made an estimate that even if only 5% of households use walnut oil as cooking vegetable oil, if all the areas suitable for growing walnuts are included in the country, based on the average yield and average oil yield of walnuts, it will be necessary to satisfy this percentage nationwide.
The market demand for five percent of households is also huge. Moreover, five percent is only a current estimate. With the continuous development of social economy, the consumption proportion will increase every year."
"Well, the market is indeed big enough, and this is the main consumption channel for walnuts." Guan Yuntian strongly agreed with Deputy County Magistrate Liu's analysis.
“I don’t know if Mr. Guan has thought of it, but another feature of this project is that there is no waste. After the walnuts are pressed for oil, the remaining walnut cakes can be directly processed into a variety of foods, and the walnut shells can be made into high-quality fuel.
A layer of walnut skin can be turned into green fertilizer through fermentation and returned to the ground for recycling."
"County Magistrate Liu, you think about the problem in too much detail. Even if we do project research, it is just that! Thank you very much for providing us with such detailed materials. Changda Group is worried about where to find new economic growth points.
We will seriously consider the suggestions you provide later." Guan Yuntian said.
"As I said before, this is just an idea of mine. You must make decisions based on the company's own conditions." Deputy County Magistrate Liu warned again.
"Please rest assured, County Magistrate Liu, we will make our own judgment. But let me stop here first. If we really want to implement this project in the future, Changda Group will invite you to be our project consultant. Magistrate Liu, when the time comes, you will
Don’t refuse!”
"What consultant? It might be possible to give you some reference advice. If Changda Group really implements this project, it will play a decisive role in alleviating poverty and becoming rich for the villagers living in the mountainous and hilly areas in the northeastern part of Fuyuan County. The local government should thank you.
That’s it.”
At this time, the host's voice came from the microphone, inviting all leaders and guests to sit down in their respective seats. Before Deputy County Magistrate Liu got up and left, he told Guan Yuntian that if he had any questions, he could call his office directly, or
Go directly to the office to find him.
The host announced the start of the social gathering. First, the executive deputy county magistrate gave a speech, then the new county magistrate delivered a speech, and then the entrepreneur representatives spoke. The ceremony was very brief, and an hour was left at the end for the leaders and entrepreneurs, or between entrepreneurs.
communicate between.
At nearly 11:30 noon, the host announced the end of the social gathering, and the executive deputy county magistrate invited all participants to have dinner on the fifth floor of the hotel.
In the banquet hall, there were ten tables full, and Guan Yuntian chose to sit at the same table with Lin Xueming. On this occasion, drinking was just symbolic, and no one was embarrassed to pick up a cup and drink. The banquet lasted for about ten minutes, and the host
Announced that the county magistrate would lead the county government team members to sit around the table and toast
.
When they arrived at Guan Yuntian's table, in addition to the new county magistrate, the team members and the county office director who led the way all knew Lin Xueming. The office director first introduced Lao Lin to the new county magistrate, and then went to Guan Yuntian next to him.
, the director of the county office didn’t recognize him, “What’s your last name, this boss?”
Deputy County Magistrate Song, who was lined up behind the executive deputy magistrate, walked to the front and introduced the new county magistrate: "County Magistrate Zhou, this Mr. Guan Yuntian is the chairman of Changda Group Company, the largest private enterprise in the city."
County Magistrate Zhou held Guan Yuntian's hand, "The largest private enterprise in the city is in our Fuyuan County? Oops, amazing, amazing! We are proud of you! Can Mr. Guan briefly introduce the company's status?"
"County Magistrate Zhou, Changda Group currently has more than 23,000 employees. It is currently involved in industries such as cord fabrics, rubber tires, power generation and oil refining. Last year, it achieved an output value of 39 billion yuan and a tax revenue of 32 billion yuan.
billion."
"Big profit and tax company! You have made great contributions to the social development and economic construction of Fuyuan County. On behalf of the people of the county, I thank you! I will definitely visit your company when I have time. I wish you all a happy New Year!"
...
On the morning of the second day of the party, Guan Yuntian came to the office of general manager Ye Jiayi, "Was the party interesting yesterday?" Ye Jiayi asked when they met.
Guan Yuntian sat down on the sofa, "What's the point of a sorority party? It's a waste of half a day, but it's not without gain."
"Have you met the main leaders of the county? It's a good thing to gain something. It seems that you should participate in such an event." Ye Jiayi said with a teasing tone.
"According to you, meeting the main leaders of the county is a gain? But what does they have to do with me?"
"Hey, I hear you say, there was something else gained yesterday, could it be an unexpected surprise?"
"I came to you just to talk to you about this matter."
Guan Yuntian informed Ye Jiayi of the idea of planting walnuts in mountainous and hilly areas and conducting deep processing recommended by Deputy County Magistrate Liu.
"Well, Changda Group Company has not been involved in new projects for more than two years, so it is time to consider this aspect." Ye Jiayi did not directly comment on Deputy County Magistrate Liu's idea.
"What do you think of this project? Just say it, regardless of who proposed it."
"I am an outsider in crop cultivation and have no right to evaluate the quality of the project."
"Like you, I don't know much about walnut cultivation, so you evaluate its deep processing. What do you think of walnut oil?"
"To be honest, Deputy County Magistrate Liu is an expert in this field, and after years of painstaking research, he has reached conclusions that laymen like us cannot easily evaluate."
"Yes, but do you think it is necessary to use this idea as a reference for us to examine new projects?"
"It can definitely be used as one of the candidate projects. After all, Deputy County Magistrate Liu has good reasons for proposing this idea. During further investigation, we only need to confirm those reasons one by one." Ye Jiayi said.
"To be honest, when it comes to considering new projects, I don't even have a concept in my mind right now, and I don't even have an idea of which direction to consider. In traditional industrial fields, general projects face huge pressure on environmental protection and safety, and some projects look...
