Chapter 541: Let More Real Money "Go to the Mountains and Go to the Countryside" (2/2)
"Jiagu can actually set up an industrial fund to help achieve the goal of industrial expansion. β
This was very different from what Qi Zheng had planned, he sat up straight and asked, "Set up an industrial fund?" β
Ma Dingwen also sat up straight and said solemnly: "After returning to China, I did some research. For a long time, many investors are not optimistic about agriculture, one is related to its own industry attribute of 'relying on the sky to eat', and there are too many uncontrollable factors in the industrial chain, resulting in greater investment risk; β
"For these two reasons, the most common move for most investors when faced with agricultural investment is to be discouraged. β
After a pause, his tone changed, and then he said: "But when I found friends in the financial industry to discuss, I found that whether it is a bank or some PEVC investment institutions, they are actually eager to make some breakthroughs in agricultural investment. After all, agriculture is a process from 1 to 10, and the investment cycle is long, but it is safe and stable, and it is suitable as a medium and long-term low-risk investment in the asset allocation portfolio. Especially in the current investment landscape. β
Qi Zheng became interested and urged: "You go on." β
Ma Dingwen said in a deep voice while thinking: "Over the years, the excessive prosperity of financial markets such as real estate and the stock market has led to too much capital being invested in these two areas, and more of the real economy has been 'squeezed out'. I believe that the financial industry's 'moving from virtual to real' will be the focus of national supervision. β
Qi Zheng bowed his head.
What, you say real estate is not part of the financial industry?
Hehe, to this day, no matter how naΓ―ve Chinese people are, they will not think that a house is just a house. It is not only a commodity, but also a commodity with strong investment attributes.
The view of political economy is that capital is the value that can bring surplus value, and the function of capital is to increase value. To put it bluntly, investing is all about making a profit or interest.
Like other developed countries, after having money, they will invest about 70% of their funds in manufacturing or business again, while in China, the first choice after having money is often to buy a house and hoard.
After all, a few years of hard work in manufacturing is not as much as buying a house β and that's still the case in manufacturing, let alone farming.
Our country has developed, and there are more and more funds in the market, if there are no more channels to drain funds, it will inevitably be "flooding the river embankment, bubbles are everywhere", and no matter how to regulate housing prices and regulate the financial market, it is a symptom but not a cure.
In Ma Dingwen's view, today's Jiagu has the ability to provide such investment channels.
"Whether it is industry or agriculture, the improvement of efficiency can certainly bring about the growth of quantity, but the increase in added value brought by new varieties will undoubtedly bring more investment opportunities. Ma Dingwen admired: "I have studied Jiagu and found that Jiagu is very good at improving the efficiency and effectiveness of agriculture through the cultivation of new varieties. The emergence of new yew varieties confirms this view. β
Qi Zheng coughed lightly, and then ...... Laughed at the statement.
Ma Dingwen didn't notice Qi Zheng's unnaturalness. At this time, he admired the management of Jiagu headed by Qi Zheng.
Throughout the development process of Jiagu, it also happens to be the stage of take-off of domestic housing prices. How many listed companies have made money, and they can't help but buy a house, or transform into real estate.
But Kagaya didn't. It has never wavered since setting the goal of focusing on agriculture. If it weren't for the continuous investment in research and development, where would Jiagu be able to produce new crop varieties?
This persistence is unparalleled.
Industry is an industry that can make an impact, and agriculture can do it, but hoarding land and houses cannot.
Jiagu Group, which has developed tens of millions of acres of cultivated land, is the pearl of China's agricultural circles. If it is the Jiagu Group, which has hoarded tens of millions of acres of land, it will definitely become the target of public criticism.
"I know that Jiagu Group connects the main relevant entities of the industrial chain, such as cooperatives, banks and sellers, to build a closed loop of the industrial chain, so that the capital can be 'circulated' in the industrial chain. Ma Dingwen's eyes were blazing, and he waved his hand and said: "But this 'circulation' is mainly endogenous capital, which is far from meeting the capital needs of the Jiagu system, right?"
Qi Zheng's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and he bowed his head again: "Yes, Jiagu is short of money!"
In fact, when it comes to a specific project, Jiagu is not short of money. But if it is enlarged to the agricultural field, the lack of money is an indisputable fact. One hundred million or several hundred million, many times, it is really not money for the agricultural field.
Ma Dingwen seemed to be encouraged, and said more steadily: "The way for enterprises to solve the lack of money or with the help of capital is nothing more than loans, equity financing and the establishment of industrial funds. The strategy adopted by the first two is 'small to large', so the small side needs to have strong soft power, such as whether it is in line with the development trend, whether it is profitable, whether it has potential......"
"Of course, Jiagu's soft power is good. Why not be more open, with the help of agriculture-related industry funds, to attract more capital into the agricultural industry, to make our own plate bigger, and to allow investors to obtain stable returns?"
"In terms of new yew varieties, this is an excellent agricultural investment. Relying on Jiagu's technology and sales channels, even if the rate of return to investors is not high, there is no big problem with stable value-added. Not to mention 6 billion, it is to leverage 10 billion, and some are bought by capital. β
Qi Zheng was silent, his fingers unconsciously tapping on the table.
He understood what Ma Dingwen meant. It is to set up an industrial fund, but not with enterprise equity as the investment target, but with agricultural projects as the investment target.
Although there will be no explosive appreciation, not all capital pursues explosive appreciation. As a medium and long-term low-risk investment, with Jiagu Group as a guarantee, I believe that there will still be a lot of capital to be tempted.
As long as investors see the steady appreciation of capital, more and more people will be interested, so that Jiagu will attract more and more funds into the agricultural industry.
The most important thing is that the state will certainly not encourage the state to raise social capital to play the capital game, but the state will certainly support the raising of social capital to do a good job in an industry with high added value.
Economic development has always been based on the improvement of productive forces. Let more real money "go to the mountains and go to the countryside" and transform it into yew trees that can produce paclitaxel and jatropha trees that can produce diesel oil...... Isn't it fragrant that higher housing prices are higher than more expensive cement?
Qi Zheng admits that Ma Dingwen's suggestion did give him an inspiration.
An industry like yew that has a long return cycle but can properly achieve stable value-added does not need to spend its own money to develop. Previously, whether it was Qi Zheng or other high-level executives in Jiagu, they were shackled by high efficiency and opened their minds.
Qi Zheng nodded at Ma Dingwen and said with a smile: "In this way, it is overkill to let you only be responsible for forestry business!"
