"Sister is here?"
When he got home and saw Zhou Ya and Chang Xi sorting out some cured hams and bacon, Yang Dongxu couldn't help but ask.
"I didn't come. I went back to my hometown two days ago. I brought a lot of these things and gave some to my relatives back home. I also asked the courier to deliver some to us."
"My brother-in-law said that his breeding farm is going to be expanded. How is it going now?" Yang Dongxu couldn't help but ask.
Men rarely call each other to communicate with each other. Basically, if they are close to each other, they will directly arrange to go out to barbecue or KTV to play together.
Women are different from woman to woman, especially now that we have smartphones that allow us to video. Many times Zhou Ya and her eldest sister would chat on video while doing housework.
Therefore, Zhou Ya, the sister-in-law, knows the situation on the eldest sister's side much better than Yang Dongxu, the biological brother.
"I won't do it again." Zhou Ya said.
"What's wrong? The policy can't be approved, or is there a funding problem?"
"There is no problem with the policy and the funds are fine, but there is a problem with the wasteland and mountains over there. The wasteland that no one wanted originally, has made money in recent years with my brother-in-law's farming.
Not to mention the rising prices, there are also many people who originally signed the contract, who have made trouble in recent years. Asking the eldest sister's family to return the land to them, the eldest sister was so angry that she cried several times. "
"Brother-in-law, didn't you think of anything to do?" Yang Dongxu frowned completely when he heard that his eldest sister was crying in anger.
Don’t think that all farmers are simple, just like there are good people and bad people in this world. Some rural people are indeed simple, and some are evil-minded.
For example, these people who are causing trouble and seizing land are obviously jealous of the eldest sister's family making money in recent years, and want to take the land back and get it themselves.
Or they could make a fuss and ask the brother-in-law's family to increase the rent of the land for them.
Now that you see people making money and you want to increase land prices, what if they fail to make a profit? Can you give up the land rent money?
At the beginning, you chose the rent that guarantees income during droughts and floods, but in the end, you can get a share just because others make money. Where do so many good things come from in the world?
"I couldn't think of a way out, so I called the police and detained a few of the people who were leading the heckles. Later, the city leaders went to inspect the situation, and things calmed down. Although there are still some gossips, basically no one is looking for trouble."
"That's good." Yang Dongxu couldn't help but nodded.
As long as the eldest sister doesn't suffer a loss, that's fine. Just now he was actually concerned and confused. Considering that my brother-in-law's family is a large local livestock farmer and has even been featured on CCTV's agricultural wealth news, it is impossible for him to suffer at the hands of such unscrupulous people.
After all, although my brother-in-law doesn't like making connections, where does his identity lie? In addition, after so many years of farming, the county leaders and city leaders all know a few of them, so naturally they cannot suffer a loss.
As for the fact that the eldest sister cried several times.
Hong Ying has had soft eyelids since she was a child, and she would cry easily when something unpleasant happens to her. So since Zhou Ya didn't say anything was wrong, basically nothing big happened.
"By the way, I couldn't get in touch with Wu Zhou when you were abroad, so he called me."
"What's the matter?"
"It is said that the patent application for functional drinks and herbal teas has been approved. I want to ask you how to choose here. Should you develop it yourself or sell the formula to others?"
Zhou Yaheli and Chang Xi hung the bacon on the balcony behind the villa. The meat did not need to be put in the refrigerator. It could be stored for a long time without going bad if it was hung directly in a cool and ventilated place.
"I'll ask the boss of Xiazong if he wants it. If he wants it, then cooperate with him. If he doesn't want it, let's see if we can do it ourselves."
Functional drinks are by-products of some medicines. When some researchers were thinking divergently, they combined some big tonic soups with the current scientific refining basis to make some health-preserving pharmaceutical products.
It is too troublesome to go through medical approval for such a product, but it is much easier to go through functional drink approval, and the patent application is also fast.
Herbal tea is a combination of some scented tea recipes from areas that like to drink scented tea, and was synthesized through in-depth research by several veteran Chinese medicine practitioners.
It is certain that these two products will make money, but it is obviously not worth setting up a beverage factory for these two products alone.
So finding a partner who provides the formula is the best option. The beverage factory handles production and sales, and a reasonable division of labor will save everyone trouble.
"Then hurry up. Wu Zhou said that he did a simple market survey and found that the market for functional drinks and herbal tea is very hot now. If we don't speed up the steps here, the formula patent in our hands will be worthless. "
"I need to hurry up." Yang Dongxu couldn't help but nodded.
The beverage market can be said to be full of competition.
Not to mention that Red Bull currently dominates functional drinks, but it can be said that a hundred schools of thought contend in other beverages. Today you make iced green tea, and tomorrow I’ll make iced black tea.
You say your Wanglaoji is authentic, I say my Jiaduobao has the exclusive secret recipe. Then the two of them got into a fight, and before they could decide the winner, they killed Lao San and Qi Zheng.
Then there is this water, and that water. In short, they are spending money to seize the market. The advertisement is called a cow. There are at least six advertisements on TV, all of which are to buy various waters, various juices, and various milk teas. , as well as various tea products, the variety is dazzling.
"It seems that the dispute between Boss Zong and the parent company has not subsided yet." Zhou Ya said.
After receiving Wu Zhou's call, she obviously learned about the domestic beverage market. Among them, I focused on getting to know Boss Zong, who has a good relationship with her husband Yang Dongxu.
Because she also felt that with these formulas in her hand, instead of going to the trouble of opening a beverage factory, she would need to build a production line and find workers. It would be easier to find a big beverage company to cooperate with.
"The results are almost out," Yang Dongxu said.
"Who do you think will win?"
"No one wins or loses, only everyone has what he needs." Yang Dongxu said.
The dispute between Boss Zong and Wahaha's overseas headquarters is not just a day or two, but has lasted for many years. But it has become more intense in recent years.
Because Wahaha's domestic market share is increasing, with revenue of several billion a year, Wahaha's headquarters is jealous of such a big cake.
But how could Boss Zong watch the big cake he had worked so hard to make just be taken away by others, so the two sides couldn't hold on.
But after making money for so long, the results are about to come out. After all, it will not be beneficial to both parties to continue fighting like this.
At the same time, the competition in the beverage market is so fierce now that it is impossible for Boss Zong to spend all his energy on dealing with the vampires at the headquarters.
So it won't be long before a result comes out. The most likely outcome of this outcome is that Wahaha headquarters will receive part of the monetary compensation. Boss Zong has greater autonomy in company operations.
"Not only in beverages, but also in food and supermarkets, foreign capital seems to have been extremely active in the past two years." Zhou Ya said.
Forget about Taiwanese capital like Uni-President and Kang Shuaifu, these are still considered their own businessmen. However, major foreign food companies have been increasing their acquisitions of domestic food brands in recent years, so they have to let go.
In terms of supermarkets, whether it is Carrefour or Wal-Mart, they are all aggressive.
"In terms of food, foreign capital has indeed been too active in recent years." Yang Dongxu couldn't help but nodded.
In recent years, the speed at which foreign capital has acquired food brands in China can be said to have blossomed in many aspects, in addition to acquiring daily consumption brands such as various beverages, instant noodles, and ham sausages.
In terms of agricultural products, such as various synthetic oils and cooking oils, the other party also attacks them hard. At present, almost 70% of domestic beverage brands, food brands, etc. have records of foreign investment.
"It's an old routine. When you find a market that you can invest in, you directly use your capital advantage to acquire local companies. Not just food, but other products, such as shampoo, shower gel, etc. are all this routine.
Produced locally, sold locally, making money from local consumers, and making local consumers think it is a domestic brand. The low-key and unobtrusive use of holdings to transfer profits away. "
"Bai Qian also said that several foreign capitals contacted him before and wanted to acquire Dabao, but he did not agree. During this period, it seems that several brands have begun to secretly suppress Dabao." Zhou Ya said.
“If we can’t acquire you, we’ll suppress you, and then we’ll either bankrupt you, or make you bankrupt before we acquire you. All capital plays this trick very well.
There were still people who wanted to acquire YY before, but during this period, YY’s overseas operating rights were packaged and won by Google, and those foreign capitals finally subsided. "
"Is that why you are planning to invest in basic agriculture?"
"Yeah." Yang Dongxu nodded.
He wants to acquire more land, not only to grow more herbs, but also to grow food.
And not only growing food, he has also been trying to acquire shares in some large international agricultural products companies in the past two years. Especially companies that hold basic agricultural and food import and export rights.
At the same time, he does not plan to do this alone, but also plans to recruit several like-minded partners.
And he had already informed his superiors before this, and the superiors also gave him good policy support for this plan.
For example, benefits such as import and export tax exemptions can benefit him a lot in one year.
There are too many people in China, and the output of China's land alone is actually far from enough to eat. If you want to eat more and better agricultural products, imported food is a must.
It is equivalent to buying grain from other people. If you have a large grain grower or a large international grain merchant, it will undoubtedly make the basic food security a little more stable.
"Are you going to develop into deep processing?"
After saying this, Zhou Ya walked to the sink next to her and washed her hands. After sorting out so many hams and bacon, they were a lot dusty and a little greasy.
"I don't have this plan, I just deal with grain trading. Transport good-quality grain from abroad to China, and hand it over to domestic companies for deep processing. It's too troublesome to have farms and deep processing of agricultural products." Yang Dongxu shook his head.
He casually handed the towel next to Zhou Ya.
