Chapter 105: Jiang Li Returned
So Liang Sanping did not want to mention this topic again, and casually brought it up with two sentences. What was left was to persuade them to drink more wine, pick dishes, and ask these technicians who had suffered grievances to eat a little more.
"Sanping! The company you and Wang Shang talked about has been approved. There is also a response from the Hong Kong side, I estimate that you will need to go and help soon..."
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Professor Chen said to Liang Sanping: "Sanping! You will be busy at that time! Now in our island, even in the northern part of Guangdong Province, only you have experience in operating this kind of thing."
"Moreover, Wang's side also trusts you very much and believes that when the time comes, you will come out to organize this cooperation. In charge of the cooperative issues between our side and Wang's side..."
Liang Sanping was taken aback by the words, and then smiled wryly: "Professor Chen, don't bother to bury me. With so many capable people in northern Guangdong, do they still need me to take the stage and carry the big flag?"
"It's really you who should go." However, Professor Chen smiled and said: "Believe it or not, it won't be long before the top issues a document. You'll be in charge of this aspect at that time, of course! Because your seniority is not enough, the top will definitely send someone over to take charge. But the main task will definitely be yours..."
Li Sanping was stunned, Professor Chen dared to say this and was so sure. Being so sure means he must have a source of information, which means it's very likely that after the matter is settled, he will really take charge...
The research team's work went more smoothly than expected, and in just over a week, most of the research situation had been figured out. Liang Sanping was very cooperative and expressed many opinions that inspired the leader of the research team, Ding Rui.
These opinions also coincided with the report proposed by Ye Jianwen, and there is no doubt that if this matter is put on the agenda and implemented, then Ye Jianwen will transform into the person in charge of this plan.
Undoubtedly, Liang Sanping will also be involved, at least as a provider of this report, he will need to assist Ye Jianwen in handling some situations and providing opinions.
Liang Sanping couldn't help but sigh, this was indeed a self-inflicted trouble. These things would definitely not let him go, which meant that whether he liked it or not, he would be very busy recently.
The banquet ended soon and Professor Chen and his team also settled down in the new company. They were considered one of the technical personnel sent by the two institutes in South China to the vegetable planting base.
Others didn't have much of an opinion on this matter, as long as Liang Sanping agreed, it was settled.
In just a few days, Professor Liu also sent news. Baoting signed that document. In other words, from now on, Baoting's vegetable cultivation technology and sales issues have nothing to do with the two academies anymore.
Li Sanping learned of this news and couldn't help but sneer. What are they doing, seeking death? But actually it's also very normal. Having just passed through those ten years, everything was chaotic. These officials didn't value the power of technology, especially the power of agricultural technology, which is quite normal.
Even in later generations, many ordinary people do not know how important the power of technology is in agriculture. Perhaps most have heard of hybrid rice and know a little about it. But as for hybrid rice, they only know that much.
The remaining other agricultural technologies are not understood at all. So when they heard that some farmers could make tens of millions or even hundreds of millions a year, they were shocked and thought it was unbelievable.
But if you have been engaged in agriculture or done agricultural research at home, you will know that although it is not universal, there are still many people who can do it. However, due to the lack of popularization of agricultural technology, only a small part of the population can achieve this.
For example, Yunnan Province, according to statistics in 2012, Yunnan realized agricultural products export of 1.1023 million tons. The export value reached $2.039 billion, an increase of 32.1% and 16.1% over the same period last year.
Among them, the export of traditional characteristic agricultural products such as edible fungi (excluding matsutake), tobacco, coffee, other edible fungi, matsutake, plant essential oils and tea leaves reached 760,000 tons, accounting for 70% of the province's total agricultural product exports, with a year-on-year growth rate of 34.6%; The export value was US$1.43 billion, up 0.3% year on year.
In traditional bulk agricultural products, vegetable exports reached 598,000 tons, up 41% year-on-year, while export value fell 12.2% to $570 million; tobacco exports totaled 99,000 tons and $527 million in total export value, up 18.4% and 7.2% respectively.
Coffee exports reached $150 million and 42,000 tons, up 12.5% and 38.2% year-on-year respectively; tea exports totaled $3 million with a total volume of 7,000 tons, up 30.2% and 23.2% year-on-year respectively.
This is just one province. The total export value of China's agricultural products in 2012 was over $60 billion. If a part of the high-end market share is increased, then the export volume and export value will also increase again.
"Comrade Sanping, thank you very much for your cooperation during this period. Thanks to your cooperation, our investigation work was completed so smoothly." Ding Rui smiled and clinked glasses with Liang Sanping, saying: "I hope that after you arrive in the Imperial Capital, we will have another opportunity to cooperate again."
Liang Sanping heard this and couldn't help but feel a little bewildered. He was definitely staying on the island, so how could he go to the Imperial Capital?!
"Hahaha... Director Ding is overjoyed. Cooperating with you all is also revolutionary work. And this is a must for me to cooperate!" Liang Sanping smiled and said to Ding Rui, "As for going to the Imperial Capital... I might go there on a business trip, but as for working there, I'm afraid that's unlikely..."
Ding Rui heard this and couldn't help but smile meaningfully at Liang Sanping, saying: "Who can predict the future? Maybe one day you'll go to work in the capital. At that time, we'll still have chances to meet up."
"Haha... as long as we arrive at the Imperial Capital. I'll definitely find Director Ding and have a good drink!" Liang Sanping smiled freely, and didn't bother with this issue anymore. Since Ding Rui said so, at least he guaranteed that there wouldn't be any problems for himself this time.
This news is more important than anything, to say that Liang Sanping is not worried about being pulled into the whirlpool is a lie. But since things have come, what can you do besides holding on?! Now that things are over, it's natural to breathe a sigh of relief.
Now that the investigation has ended, everyone's mind is relaxed. Those research team members who are usually as expressionless as wooden men are all smiling today, chatting and laughing together with everyone else.
Liu Er Dangzi and Peng Lao San, these two of Liang Sanping's trusted subordinates, naturally flitted about the crowd like butterflies. From time to time, they would offer a toast to one person or give a cigarette to another.
"Sanping... I'm sorry to have troubled you. If it wasn't for my request, you wouldn't have had to write that report." Ye Jianwen finally found an opportunity to sincerely apologize to Liang Sanping.
During the investigation, Ye Jianwen could only avoid any contact with Liang Sanping to avoid suspicion. When they met, they just nodded and greeted each other, and that was it.
Today, after the investigation was over, Ye Jianwen finally spoke up and apologized sincerely to Liang Sanping. Liang Sanping smiled freely upon hearing this: "If you've done it, don't be afraid of taking responsibility. I promised you that if you did it, you'd have to do it. Since you've done it, there's no reason to be afraid of taking responsibility."
"We're all friends, no need to say more. Let's have a good drink, and next time I go to the capital, you'll treat me to a good meal!" Liang Sanping's words made Ye Jianwen nod vigorously in agreement.
Two men looked at each other and smiled, downing their cups of wine in one gulp. Real men don't need to say much, it's all in this cup of wine!
The banquet dispersed, and the next day, Liang Sanping sent Ye Jianwen and others to take the return car. They will go to Qiongzhoukou to take a ferry across the sea, then take a bus to Yangcheng, and then transfer to a train back to the imperial capital.
Looking at Ye Jianwen, who had been drinking with him until midnight and still had a pale face, Liang Sanping couldn't help but smile. Hopefully this kid can hold on till they get back to the capital without throwing up...
Not long after Ye Jianwen and his group left, Jiang Li rushed to the island in a flurry of dust. Unexpectedly, this time Jiang Li was transferring flights in Yangcheng, landing at Qiongzhou Port and rushing directly to Baoting.
"You're in such a hurry?! Actually, coming from Yang City, taking the bus and then transferring to a boat would take about the same amount of time..." Liang Sanping said with a surprised smile as he saw Jiang Li covered in dust.
"Hey! The Ship Emperor has already conducted market research below, and at least the Hong Kong market under Japan's influence is very trusting of Qiong Island products." However, Jiang Li wiped his sweat and said to Liang Sanping: "There are still several months before the New Year, and every year during the New Year, the sales of various poultry and meat products in Hong Kong are very large."
"The ship owner has already contacted several supermarkets, and they will also send people to inspect. Isn't this me coming to pave the way?!" But then Jiang Li smiled and said: "This can be considered our first 'landing' on the mainland! In the past, we've always been doing sea transportation business!"
"In just a few months, you can't build a complete system! " Liang Sanping sighed: "This time is too short, the breeding time is not enough to seriously affect the meat quality of these poultry..."
"I know, this time we're also testing the waters." But then Jiang Li smiled and said: "First, let those supermarket representatives take a look at Qiong Island's production environment, and then we'll start bulk purchasing those already raised poultry..."
Listening to Jiang Li's words, Liang Sanping smiled. They were indeed cautious in doing business. After signing the letter of intent, they still had to conduct small-scale acquisitions first. It was clear that this was a test of market acceptance.
If this batch of products is well received in the Hong Kong market, it naturally means that there is a need to establish a production base. If the acceptance is not good, the next plan needs to be adjusted.
If the market recognition and acceptance are increased, it is a very serious issue. As long as the Hong Kong market accepts it, promoting it to countries with more Chinese communities in Southeast Asia will also become much easier.
At that time, Xiangjiang was almost a benchmark area in Southeast Asia. If it is accepted here, Southeast Asia will also be gradually accepted.
"When will those representatives arrive?" Liang Sanping asked Jiang Li, who replied directly: "The day after tomorrow, they will arrive the day after tomorrow!"
