Chapter 924 [The rich people just pay the money and leave the rest to us]
Regarding the international layout of grain, Fang Hong has already asked Qunxing Capital to actively expand overseas. One of the core strategies in Africa is grain, and a major potential customer has long targeted Saudi Arabia, because Fang Hong knows that there will be another Around seven or eight years, there will be chaos in Uklan, which will inevitably affect the food import problem of the Sat tycoons.
To this end, Qunxing Capital has been paying attention to the agricultural development status of large Sate dogs. The company's investment research and analysis department has a team specifically responsible for the Middle East sector. Last year, there was a "Saudi Agricultural Investment Prospects and Risk Analysis Report", which systematically comprehensively The agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, fishery and other industries of Sate were analyzed.
One data in the report shows that 80% of the land area of Sat tycoons is used to develop agriculture. It is difficult to imagine that a country can devote such a large proportion of its land area to the development of agriculture.
The local climate and environment are actually not suitable for the development of agriculture. The annual rainfall in the country of Sat is only 100 to 200 mm, and the temperature can reach a maximum of 54 degrees Celsius. Therefore, a lot of land in Sat is uninhabited desert.
But Sate has been trying to grow crops in the desert a long time ago. After years of operation and investment, they have also reclaimed a farmland covering an area of more than 16,000 square kilometers. After repeated experiments, they have also gained some successful experience. .
First of all, the water they use for irrigation basically comes from seawater desalination. Currently, their seawater desalination volume ranks first in the world. Secondly, they invest huge manpower and material resources to expand the farmland area. After long-term persistence, they now have a considerable scale. of farmland.
However, due to the congenital environment, the wheat production here is not good, and it can only supply 20% of the national demand for satt. The rest still needs to be imported in large quantities from abroad, including fruits and vegetables.
According to this data analysis report by Qunxing Capital, Sate imported 6 million tons of barley last year, making it the world's largest barley importer and ranking first in the world.
In addition, wheat imports exceed 3.5 million tons every year.
Many people don't understand this approach of Sate, and its citizens may not understand either. Since oil can earn a lot of profits, why not just focus on oil and then directly import large quantities of grain?
But the people in the wealthy family are obviously not confused. They know that this idea is very dangerous. First of all, oil is a non-renewable resource and will be squandered one day. Secondly, agriculture is the foundation of a country. If food is completely dependent on imports, then It is equivalent to putting your own weakness in the hands of others, which is extremely unsafe.
If the oil disappears one day, it will be too late to study agriculture on a temporary basis, so this approach of the Sat tycoons is obviously wise.
This time, because Fang Hong went on an inspection trip to the northwest and hosted a live broadcast, smart plant factories and energy agriculture became a hot topic in the news. Rich people accidentally learned about it and paid attention to it.
Tuhao further understood that this smart plant factory could not be affected by the environment, and could maintain high production and guaranteed quality even in harsh environments like the desert next door. Tuhao immediately confirmed with his eyes that this was what he had always wanted to achieve.
…
At this moment, in the living room of the villa, Tian Jiayi looked at Fang Hong and said, "How are you going to handle this matter? Because it involves international issues and is an international geopolitical hotspot, the board of directors has not made a decision."
What the board of directors means is that this matter is so big that you, the real big BOSS behind the scenes, have to make the decision.
"Of course it's cooperation." Fang Hong made the decision without hesitation, and immediately said with a smile: "This is not only a big business, but once it is rolled out on Sater's side, there will be more unseen benefits in the future. .”
If the two parties reach a cooperation and the food supply produced by plant factories and greenhouses accounts for a large proportion, or even a core proportion, of Shate, will it indirectly control the food supply of local tycoons?
Of course, you won't reveal it directly, nor do you do it directly, but for a smart plant factory, the word "smart" is the key point. The equipment must be purchased and imported from a large Eastern country, right?
The operating space is very flexible, and Fang Hong also has Chen Yu, a general in charge of quantitative capital, under his command.
Last year's Lu Chengye incident aroused international public opinion all because of Chen Yu, and because of this, America was so frightened that she quickly passed a bill directly linking large-scale cyber attacks to nuclear strikes. Once a cyber attack occurs, it can be legally A nuclear counterattack.
Moreover, the energy agriculture model developed by Qunxing Capital is deeply tied to the innovation of new energy technology, that is, solar photovoltaic power generation. It cannot be used without this supporting equipment.
Therefore, when necessary, there is no need to directly think about the food itself. There are many means to check and balance.
Once the food output of plant factories and greenhouses accounts for a large proportion in the future, it will inevitably bring about another situation. The big dogs will more or less tilt towards the East, at least paying more attention to establishing good relations with the big Eastern countries than they do now.
You are very important to him, and when you speak there in the future, your words will carry even more weight in his mind.
Fang Hong immediately ordered: "Make this matter a key international strategic cooperation project of the company. Zhao Sheng is still in charge of the new energy aspect, right?"
Tian Jiayi nodded.
Fang Hong continued: "In this cooperation project, we do not make a penny from food. We sell photovoltaic equipment and smart equipment, especially photovoltaics. What we make is new energy money, so this cooperation must be packaged." The local tycoons are only responsible for providing supporting output, and we will do the rest.”
Tian Jiayi wrote down his instructions one by one, and Fang Hong couldn't help but smile and said contentedly: "I have been thinking about how to activate the output of new energy in the Middle East for a long time, and how to put photovoltaic new energy there. I open up the situation, now it’s better, the rich man comes to visit me personally.”
It is worth mentioning that the wealthy people in Sat are so rich that they use petroleum energy to generate electricity. Moreover, the oil fields in Sat are in shallow depths, so the cost of extraction is very low.
Can solar photovoltaic power generation compete with local oil power generation in Sate? The answer is that it must be competitive. When the cost of solar power generation can reach 10 cents per kilowatt hour, which is lower than the cost of oil power generation, it will certainly be competitive.
After a moment, Fang Hong thought about it and said again: "In order to show that we attach great importance to this cooperation, we have to send heavyweights to talk to the local tycoons and take charge of this cooperation project. Let's leave it to Zhao Sheng and let him be fully responsible for it. This international cooperation project is the most suitable.”
