Chapter 823 To speed up the development of Qilin Agricultural Development Group

,!

What the country currently lacks is high-end talents, and there is no shortage of low-end labor. Before there is a perfect system, he dare not let general-purpose robots crowd out the ordinary labor market.

After watching the general robot production line, and talking about the current scenarios where the robot can be used, Ye Zishu patted his ass and left Kirin Basic Industries Group.

Now that he has come to Wuhan, it is impossible for him to return to the capital immediately. Instead, he has gone to the Qilin Agricultural Development Group, which is now under the Qilin Industrial Group, and this group company has caused him a lot of headaches.

The investment scale is not small. At the beginning of this year, the planned investment scale was as high as 1.5 trillion yuan. The actual scale is even higher than this. After all, the plan cannot keep up with changes, and it is normal to increase investment.

But the recovery of the investment is far away. Given the domestic income level, the organic vegetables they grow dare not increase the price casually, but the price is a little higher than that of ordinary vegetables.

Although the income of his employees is not low, it doesn't matter if it is higher, but if it is too high, even if you have money, you may not necessarily buy it, because the domestic consumption concept has not yet changed.

What's more, with a certain income, more money spent on food and clothing means less money spent on other aspects, and other industries under his banner also need the domestic market.

So they build a lot of high-standard temperature-controlled greenhouses, but the money they earn is nothing compared to the investment. Putting aside the investment in temperature-controlled greenhouses, the current selling price deducts operating costs, and in fact maintains a break-even balance.

Therefore, Qilin Agricultural Development Group puts its main source of income on meat products. With the improvement of economic level, the demand for meat is also rising rapidly.

If the production and construction of 50 million tons of meat is completed this year, it means that there will be hundreds of billions of yuan in revenue. Like ordinary pork, the market price is about 7 yuan, and the shipping price here is generally 5 yuan per catty.

And their production cost per catty of meat is about 2 yuan. If only pork is used, it can bring them an income of 300 billion yuan per year.

Of course, their pork sales also have to pay taxes, just to promote the improvement of advanced pork production technology, the taxes paid are relatively small, and there are many tax incentives.

But the investment is not small. Each factory with a production capacity of 1 million tons of pork requires an investment of 10 billion yuan, which is not something ordinary enterprises can handle.

To build 50 million tons of meat production capacity requires an investment of 500 billion yuan. Fortunately, the meat produced in this kind of factory does not have to worry about various diseases and does not need to depend on the sky for food. It can pay back in a year or two.

In particular, their mutton and beef are much more expensive than pork, and even poultry is slightly higher than pork. The reason is simply because it tastes better.

If it weren't for pork being the main meat consumed by the common people,

If the price is based on the quality of the meat, it is also possible to set the price higher than the market price, but they cannot do so.

While making money for themselves, try to make meat products affordable for the common people. Compared with farmed meat, their factory production method can make the common people healthier.

After the completion of such a large meat production capacity of the Kirin Agricultural Development Group, my country's meat shortage can be alleviated for the time being, and an annual increase of 10 million tons of production capacity will be added in the future.

According to the per capita meat consumption level of the world's developed economies, coupled with my country's dietary consumption habits, it is more appropriate for the per capita annual meat consumption to reach 100 kg.

According to this standard, with a population of 1.2 billion in my country, the total annual meat consumption should be 120 million tons. If the price of meat is not high, but the quality is good, the per capita meat consumption may be even higher.

He doesn't have to worry about their meat business. It is certain to make money, and it will be their main source of income in the future. However, it is more difficult to make a profit in the current vegetable business.

He no longer counts on the vegetable business. The reason why he still has to build high-standard temperature-controlled greenhouses is mainly to enrich the types of vegetables for the people, so that the people can eat the vegetables they want every season.

Therefore, he had to find another way to increase the income of the Qilin Agricultural Development Group. Now there are two types of fruits in front of him, one is fruits, and the other is aquatic fish.

As for the crops used for industrial raw materials, he is not very interested, because these industrial raw materials can be synthesized by industrial methods, and there is no need to rely on agriculture.

my country has always been a big fruit-growing country, but the level of fruit planting in our country is relatively low, and the cultivation of fruit varieties is also relatively backward, but the output is large, but the output value is not high.

Qilin Agricultural Development Group has improved some fruit varieties in the past two years and achieved good results, but in his opinion, they have not fully utilized their own technical advantages and their thinking is not broad enough.

He plans to take some time to develop a large number of new varieties of fruit for Qilin Agricultural Development Group, and he can also use temperature-controlled greenhouses for large-scale planting.

In terms of aquatic fish, my country is both a big producer and a big consumer. However, there are still relatively few artificially raised fish in China, and most of them are fished from natural rivers and oceans.

When people's income is low, the aquatic fish obtained from nature can still meet the demand, but when more than one billion people love to eat and have the ability to eat, it is difficult to meet the demand only by natural harvest.

Therefore, how to artificially produce fish and seafood products is a problem that must be faced. There are three methods before him. The first is to use natural water systems to artificially breed.

The advantage is that the input is small, and the output is much higher than the natural state, but the disadvantages are also obvious, the overall efficiency is not very high, and it is easily affected by changes in the natural environment.

The Xingmiao Lake next to his hometown is this kind of breeding method. Although the output is higher than the natural state, there is still a big gap with the real factory farming.

The second is factory farming. This method does not rely on natural water systems. The breeding density is very high, and the unit output is very considerable, which can meet the market's demand for quantity.

However, due to the large amount of feed used and the high stocking density, the taste is much worse than the first method. The advantage is that it is cheap enough and can be raised all year round.

The above two methods are more suitable for ordinary people or business operations, because the technical content is not too high, and generally as long as the funds are in place, there is not much difficulty.

However, with these two methods, with the increasing income of the domestic people, it is difficult to meet the people's requirements for food quality, and it is difficult to strike a balance between output and quality.

So he still prefers the third method, which is to use biological cultivation to produce fish and seafood products, just like meat factories.

The advantage is that the quality is controllable, the production efficiency is higher, the safety is better, it is not affected by the season and climate, and the damage to nature is very small.

The disadvantage is that the investment is very large. The investment scale of a factory with an annual output of 1 million tons of meat has reached 10 billion yuan, while the unit investment cost of a fish and seafood product factory is higher.

The reason is that meat production factories do not need to produce complete individuals, and can be cultivated into various meat parts according to needs, and many processing links are omitted.

However, fish and seafood must be produced as a complete individual, and must be kept fresh, which is more technically difficult and requires more space per unit volume.

The advantage is that the value of fish and seafood products is relatively high, and any fish can be bred, and any seafood can be produced, and the production capacity structure can be flexibly adjusted according to market needs.

If Qilin Agricultural Development Group supplements the production technology of fish and seafood products, then they will be able to artificially breed almost all animals.

Whether it is flying in the sky, walking on the ground, or swimming in the water, it can be cultivated on an industrial scale and greatly reduce the demand for natural resources.

After leaving the headquarters of Kylin Basic Industry Group, Ye Zishu returned to the headquarters of Kylin Industrial Group. The other sub-groups have made money and have basically moved out of the headquarters.

At present, the headquarters of Phoenix Special Effects Company only has the headquarters of Qilin Industry Group, Qilin Agricultural Development Group, and Qilin Resource Development Group. Either there are not many people, or they are not making money.

Kirin Industrial Group itself is a weak headquarters, with a strong sub-group structure. Only the basic functional departments are retained at the headquarters, and all other specific operations are delegated to sub-groups.

Therefore, the total number of staff at the headquarters is just over 1,000, which is not enough to occupy an office building. There is no need to build our own headquarters building at all.

The Kylin Agricultural Development Group needs to spend a huge amount of capital investment every year, and their revenue is currently completely negligible, so they need to operate frugally, and they don't need to think about their own headquarters for the time being.

So their headquarters staff and scientific research departments are all here, and the scale of staff is very large. There are tens of thousands of people in total, and this does not include the staff who run business outside and the assigned agricultural instructors.

Kylin Resources Development Group doesn't have a lot of staff in the headquarters. Most of the business is outside, even abroad. There are only more than 1,000 personnel in functional departments and scientific research personnel in the headquarters.

So Phoenix Special Effects itself and these companies simply can't run out. Fortunately, other subsidiaries of Phoenix Technology have a stronghold here, occupying a lot of office space.

In addition, some of his companies, if they have business in Wuhan, will also place their residences here. Unless they have long-term business and the business volume is still large, they will independently purchase office buildings.

Back at the headquarters of Kirin Industrial Group, a meeting was held with the heads of various departments, mainly to understand the development of other sub-groups.

Most of the groups have achieved a double harvest of investment and revenue, but there are a few exceptions. The first is Kirin Energy Industry Group, whose investment scale has doubled from the target set at the beginning of the year.

Fortunately, the revenue is not bad. The power generation facilities that have been built have brought them good revenue. This year’s revenue is expected to reach 700 billion yuan.

It's just that it's far behind the investment. This year's investment scale has reached 3 trillion yuan. Don't think about getting back the capital for the time being. In the future, we will invest a lot of money every year.

The second is the Qilin Agricultural Development Group, which is also in a state of net loss. If he does not intervene, it will be difficult to achieve overall profitability in the short term.

The last is Kirin Resources Development Group. Their investment scale this year is not large, and they mainly search for minerals all over the world for Kirin Basic Industry Group.

As the price of mineral resources has risen this year, their previously invested shares have benefited a lot on paper, but this is of little use to them, and it is unlikely that they will sell their shares.

Maintaining the basic operations of the group, or relying on the income from helping Kirin Basic Industry Group to sell products, is the most miserable among many groups.

It's not that they don't want to continue to invest in mineral resources, but that there are not many opportunities to invest now. As the price of mineral resources rises, the valuations of related companies have risen sharply.

Moreover, stockholders are also very optimistic about the future expectations, resulting in a high stock price premium. It is not cost-effective to buy shares at such a price in Yeshu's view.

If the price of mineral resources is ridiculously high, then you can only go to seabed mining by yourself, and the price must be controlled within a certain range, otherwise it will have a great impact on many industries in our country.

The money he didn't want to earn was eaten up by the price increase of downstream raw materials. How could he be reconciled to working hard for these people with mines at home.

Except for these three groups, the situation of other groups is much better. While the production capacity of Kirin Grain and Oil Industry Group is fully opened this year, it is also expanding its total production capacity and preparing to enter a new stage of development next year.

This is also the case for other groups. With the substantial increase in the income of the people, they are also substantially increasing production capacity construction and new product development to meet the strong market demand.

Even Kirin Food Industry Group, which was established the latest, has experienced explosive growth in revenue due to large-scale investment this year, but the overall profit margin is low, but it has created a lot of jobs.

After understanding the basic situation, Ye Zishu plunged into the R\u0026D department of Qilin Agricultural Development Group, and stayed here during the day, working with researchers to study new crop varieties.

In the evening, he returned to his own office and began to sort out the production technical data of fish and seafood products. In order to prevent the technology from being abused, he still has a lot to pay attention to.

In the evening, in addition to sorting out fish and seafood cultivation techniques, we also need to sort out technical data related to marine resource exploitation. Judging from the current situation, it won't be long before the global price of mineral resources will increase.

Our country needs to import a large amount of mineral resources every year, and the autonomy rate is low. Whether it is passive or active, whether it is capital or the country where it is located, all want to make a lot of money from it.

We don't have a big solution yet. If it weren't for the export of many industrial products in our country, we really wouldn't be able to pay for such a huge import fee of mineral resources.

He needs to plan ahead, sort out the mining technology of seabed mineral resources in advance, and hand it over to Qilin Resources Development Group, and work with his industries to turn the technical data into reality.

At that time, a large amount of resources can be dug from the seabed, which can reduce the dependence on other countries' resources, grasp a certain bargaining power, and return the price of mineral resources to a reasonable position.
