Chapter 491: Wogan with an output value of 7 yuan per mu

The huge price gap between domestic and foreign sugar prices was a disaster for sugar-making companies, but Jiahe took this opportunity to enter the sugar industry.

If it were in the past, Guo Yang wouldn't mind his subordinates being a little greedy, and it wouldn't be a bad idea for him to directly become the Sugar King of China.

However, it is not appropriate to be too high-profile now. In addition to the fact that Golden Harvest is already a giant enterprise, it is also because the top management knows his uniqueness.

You can make money, but not too much.

In particular, sugar factories also involve a large number of sugarcane farmers. Of the sales revenue of one ton of sugar, 60% to 70% is paid to the farmers, and 8% is tax. It is too important for agriculture, rural areas and farmers, as well as for local finances.

The layout of the sugar industry was actually just something Guo Yang did to make some money, and the biggest highlight was still targeting Asan.

Guo Yang chatted briefly with Zou Kun for a while, then let him leave first, and then looked at Bi Qiang, "What do you think of Zou Kun?"

Bi Qiang sat on the sofa and said, "He is quite knowledgeable, but it is hard to tell how professional he is now, and it is hard to say when the domestic sugar industry will get out of the trough."

Guo Yang chuckled and said, "No confidence in the new variety?"

Bi Qiang's face was solemn. "It's true that the yield of Asan is too scary. I visited several institutions in Guangxi Province and they all wanted to introduce Asan sugarcane varieties. However, the superiors did not approve it. This is good for Tianhe to sell sugarcane seeds, but not necessarily for the sugar factory."

Guo Yang placed a cup of tea in front of Bi Qiang, "You never know, it might collapse on its own one day."

"How can it be so good..." Bi Qiang took the tea and stopped talking halfway, staring at Guo Yang blankly, "Asan's sugarcane variety is a bit abrupt."

Guo Yang smiled and said, "I don't know how it happened, but the news I have heard so far is that the sequelae are quite serious."

He knew that Bi Qiang might have noticed something, but he probably couldn't guess that it was Tianhe who did it, so it wasn't a big problem.

Compared with the varieties given to India, the new varieties of sugarcane and sugar beets that remain in the country are slightly inferior in yield.

Cheng Di returned to Mabang with Tianhe's investment. The amount of about 300 million yuan was a considerable sum of money for the research center.

Originally, this money was going to be deliberately embezzled by the cooperation center, and Cheng Di felt a little distressed.

But it's much better now.

He was in a small town on the banks of the Krishna River, the mother river of Maharashtra and Karnataka, and its basin is the main sugarcane growing area in India.

Karnataka is located upstream and Maharashtra is located downstream, and the dispute over water sources between the two states has a long history.

Last year, Mabang had a bumper sugarcane harvest.

This year, the new variety has spread to several sugarcane growing states, including Karnataka.

Recently, it is the peak period for sugarcane water demand and also the critical period for sugarcane growth.

However, there has been a surge in water consumption in the upstream Karnataka and a water shortage in the downstream Maharashtra.

However, no one blamed the cause on sugarcane cultivation, but instead focused on the competition for river water rights.

There are plans to build a new dam upstream, and sugarcane farmers downstream are busy digging wells to get water for irrigation.

The violent clashes that break out from time to time seem no different from the fights for water resources in previous years.

But according to Cheng Di's observations and statistics, more than a dozen villages have experienced dried-up canals and cracked farmland.

Fight, fight, fight harder!

But don’t forget the surprise brought by the cotton harvest!

After figuring out the situation, Cheng Di returned to Mumbai, and as expected, the money in the cooperation center's account had been "misappropriated".

Cheng Di had a huge argument with the school in grief and anger, and soon after, Tianhe withdrew its investment in Asan.

The Mumbai media reported on this, describing Tianhe's withdrawal as "shame".

"In the two years of cooperation, Tianhe has not achieved any results, but the College of Agriculture of the University of Mumbai has achieved great results."

"The yield of the new sugarcane variety exceeded 12 tons per mu, while the average yield of Huaxia's sugarcane fell to less than 4 tons. The huge yield put Tianhe to shame."

"It is said that the Agricultural College has also made a major breakthrough in cotton varieties..."

As for the 300 million yuan investment by Tianhe, there was almost no media reporting on it. So what? We dare to cheat America, so what? Bullying a Chinese company like you?
Cheng Di swallowed this "loss in silence", and his frustrated expression was seen in newspapers and on TV.

It was not until he got on the plane that he laughed, "Hehe...hehe..." That laugh made the people in the same cabin feel a little creepy.

In early September, Cheng Di returned to Jiuquan.

"Boss, I'm glad you did what you asked."

Guo Yang also took out two media reports from his desk and joked, "You are such a good actor, you deserve an Oscar."

Cheng Di said: "I had no choice. I was forced to do it."

Guo Yang smiled and said, "The first time is strange, the second time is familiar. I will come to you next time if something like this happens."

Cheng Di quickly waved his hands and put down the tea that was about to reach his mouth, "Don't! I'm scared, really scared, boss!"

Guo Yang laughed, "Just kidding, this won't happen again. There won't be any more seeds like this."

Cheng Di wiped the non-existent sweat.

Guo Yang poured tea with a smile, listened to Ah San's changes, and judged the progress. Now it seems that this day is not far away.

It just so happens that Tianhe Seed Industry and Jiahe Sugar Industry have similar domestic layouts.

September and October are the golden months, and it’s another harvest season.

After several years of crop rotation and fallow, the country's agricultural production capacity has been greatly improved.

With the fallow area increasing year by year, domestic grain production has not only stabilized, but has also shown a trend of slow growth.

Under such circumstances, domestic grain prices will naturally not rise.

At the same time, because the threat to food security is small, some areas that are not suitable for food production have begun to switch to producing cash crops.

With so many changes, even Guo Yang couldn't figure out the future trends.

As a result, he participated less in the management of specific affairs and focused all his attention on ecological governance and breeding.

After secret talks with senior leaders, the Hongqi River project has actually entered the stage of secret technical research and development.

Not long after returning, Guo Yang also participated in several technical verifications.

This includes improving water conservation through deep-rooted planting of Qilian juniper, fir, etc., reducing ecological damage from engineering projects, and verifying drought-resistant and sand-fixing plants.

Projects such as the Qilian Mountains National Park, Desert Park, and Dunhuang Wetland are also progressing very rapidly.

Because in addition to Jiahe, the country has also taken action and invested a lot of money in environmental governance. At the same time, it also purchased Jiahe plant varieties to make up for the shortage of manpower.

Guo Yang could feel the changes from the speed at which natural energy accumulated.

If it was a trickle before, it is now a torrent. The accumulation in one month is equivalent to that in the previous half year.

But the most eye-catching achievement of Jiahe in recent years is the completion of the bioenergy forest.

After five years, the first batch of Xanthoceras sorbifolia and Leprosy tree fruits have gradually entered the high-yield period.

The average per-acre yield of leprosy fruit, which focuses on biodiesel, in the south has officially exceeded 3000 kilograms!
At least 0.5 tons of biodiesel per acre!
If labor is ignored, the production cost of each ton of oil is only four or five hundred yuan!
The cost is sky-high.

It plays an absolutely strategic role in coping with the energy crisis.

Similarly, the potential of Xanthoceras sorbifolia is no less than that of Jatropha curcas, and its economic value is much higher.

At this point, before the autumn is over, the energy forest has completely stood up, and the planting area changes every day.

At the same time, Guo Yang not only enjoyed the carnival brought by the energy forest, but also experienced the joy of being a father. When he first saw the little figure lying in the cradle, with a wrinkled face and closed eyes, the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose at that moment.

"Hello, dear Guo Pengye."

"Puchi..." Lin Keqing laughed as she looked at Guo Yang's tough yet tender appearance.

"It's okay now, it's a boy, you can beat the baby when you have nothing to do, but looking at this, you may not be able to do it!"

The newborn baby sleeps most of the day, so Guo Yang played with the child for a while and then handed the child to the confinement nanny.

"Thank you for your hard work." Guo Yang said with a smile: "I think this child will be an obedient one in the future. I may not have the chance to beat him."

Lin Keqing smiled: "The word 'wild' is in the name."

Guo Yang said: "This is the "野" in "田野", which is taken from the Book of Songs, 'I walk in the wild, the wheat grows lushly', which means a field full of vitality, and has nothing to do with being wild."

"Boys, it's better to be wild."

"..."

Guo Yang turned his head and looked at Guo Pengye who was sleeping soundly. Well, he should not be a naughty child.
-
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye, and most of the crops in the northern hemisphere have been harvested.

It was a good year.

Even American agriculture, which had been in a slump, has emerged from it this year.

However, what awaits American farmers is not wealth, but a price war that makes the situation worse!

Soybeans, corn, wheat, cotton, and hay, all crops produced from the land are in serious oversupply.

The prices of agricultural products are falling step by step.

In fact, it is just one more variable: the world’s most populous country has achieved complete self-sufficiency in food and even has enough left to export.

The largest consumer market is gone, and at the same time a new competitor has been added. It would be strange if there is no oversupply.

As a result, bioenergy has once again re-emerged, and North America, South America and Europe are all busy promoting the processing of biofuels from food.

Even within the country, relevant restrictions have been further relaxed.

In order to meet the challenges, OPEC members suddenly increased crude oil production and supply, causing crude oil prices to drop, and the United States began to stir up trouble in the Middle East again.

Guo Yang was a little panicked. The flapping wings of the butterfly effect completely changed the world.

Fortunately, Jiahe is now big and strong enough, with a giant standing behind it.

By the end of December, India's sugarcane entered its harvest season again, with output once again exceeding expectations, causing global sugar prices to plummet.

A large number of sugar mills in Australia, Brazil and China are suffering from deep losses!
Terrible!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiahe Sugar launched a new round of mergers and acquisitions at home and abroad, acquiring farms and sugar-making companies.

In addition to Jiahe, Guoliang Tunhe’s mergers and acquisitions can also be described as fierce.

Guo Yang estimated that Ning Gaoning might have also received instructions from the top.

Because under the current heavy pressure from India, companies that dare to make acquisitions against the trend are all warriors.

The previous sugar cycle is likely to have failed, and shareholders of sugar companies that are suffering deep losses are eager to sell their shares, which makes acquisitions extremely easy.

Jiahe Sugar Industry and Guoliang Tunhe are both expanding rapidly.

Early 2013, Nanning, Wuming.

Nanning Sugar Dongjiang Company also ushered in a bumper harvest.

"Tiantang No. 1 is expected to produce 10 tons!"

"Sugar content 18%!"

For Lan Zhihong, general manager of Dongjiang Company, this may be the best news in recent times.

Although only a few thousand acres of Tiantang No. 1 were planted this year, its yield and sugar content far exceeded the previous new Taiwan Sugar No. 22.

Compared with India, China's sugarcane production is not inferior. Under the protection of tariffs and import quotas, China is not inferior to the imported sugar from India.

Therefore, although Dongjiang Company also suffered heavy losses this year, it found a way to deal with it.

In a village not far away, Xiang Tianshan once again came to Jiang Yi's Wogan orchard and witnessed the sales process of his Wogans with his own eyes.

2009年种植，2012年便卖出了每亩7万元的高效益！80亩地一共收入了560万元！

The Wumu-HuaBenz team, who were in charge of filming and recording, were all filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.

Huge profits!
In this season when orange blossoms are in the air, the only things available on the market are ordinary navel oranges straight from storage.

Compared with them, Wogan has obvious advantages in quality.

After completing the editing and production with mixed feelings, Jiang Yi’s agricultural entrepreneurship story was uploaded to Five Mu for a Mercedes-Benz.

The title is also very simple: Wogan oranges with an output value of 7 yuan per mu.

But the effect was explosive. Once it was uploaded, fans who followed it received push messages. Some people were attracted after just reading the title.

Wu Chaoping, now the deputy general manager of Denong Agricultural Materials Branch, is one of them.

He is currently in a teahouse in a small county town, with a laptop on the table and several other people on a business trip with him.

Wu Chaoping has read every issue since the first issue of "Five Mu for a Benz". In addition to understanding entrepreneurship, he is also maintaining industry sensitivity.

Those who can appear on this program are all talented people, and innovative things often come out.

But after seeing the title this time, Wu Chaoping felt something inexplicably moving in his heart, and whispered: "Wogan, could it be Jiang Yi?!"

The regional manager who happened to be in his hand heard it, "Jiang Yi? Who is Jiang Yi?"

Wu Chaoping smiled and said, “I used to be a subordinate of mine. We worked together for two years during the competition between Susha and Kangkuan.”

"That's a pity. Speedkill is now firmly in the top position of the country's largest pesticide. If he were still around, his annual income would be huge. By the way, what is he doing now?"

"He has returned to Nanning to grow mandarin oranges. I feel that he may be the protagonist of this episode of Five Mu for a Mercedes-Benz."

"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"

Although the popularity of exchanging five acres for a Mercedes-Benz is not as high as it was at the beginning, it is not something that every farmer can afford.

"Let's take a look."

Wu Chaoping clicked on the push page on his laptop, and the others came over curiously.

After just reading the title, many people exclaimed, "Fuck, the output value per mu is 7 yuan, who is so awesome?"

"Boss Wu, they are not really your former subordinates, are they?"

Wu Chaoping said uncertainly: "Jiang Yi has only been back for more than three years. I don't know if it is him."

"That shouldn't be possible. How can a citrus tree that is over three years old and in its early fruiting period have such a high yield?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Chaoping saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face.

"It's really Jiang Yi!"
