South Koreans, it's really a ghost!" said Guo Chunfa, who returned to the newly completed industrial park in Fusong County, Kyrgyz Province, after the closing of the Food Expo, and received the latest trends of South Koreans.

When the Chinese ginseng industry began to bid farewell to the chaotic situation, South Korean participating enterprises not only engaged in open and secret battles with Chinese participating enterprises in ginseng brand, sales, etc., but also "made a big move" in the control of raw materials.

Qi Zheng squinted slightly: "It can be seen that they know the ginseng market in my country very well, and yes, in the past so many years, to a certain extent, it can be said that they are the behind-the-scenes manipulators of the domestic ginseng market." ”

What the two are talking about is that South Koreans have frequently hoarded ginseng in the domestic ginseng market during this period of time.

From the basic production area and ginseng production data, South Korea does not have so much raw ginseng for processing, so it is inevitable to rely on China to supplement in terms of raw materials; but with the support of the government, Jiagu vigorously integrates the ginseng industry, and the Chinese ginseng enterprises develop and grow in the process, the supply of raw materials for the South Korean ginseng industry will be greatly limited.

Japanese and Korean ginseng companies, led by the South Korean Ginseng Corporation, are first worried about the further increase in the price of Chinese ginseng since then, so they have stockpiled raw ginseng at today's low level.

Guo Chunfa shook the information in his hand and said with a smile: "It seems that the pace of our industrial revitalization has really made them anxious, and now they are completely out of accordance with the rules of the game." In the past, they were very particular about what kind of ginseng they needed to receive. Now, as long as it is ginseng, it is all received. ”

Judging from the feedback from the market, South Koreans have entrusted intermediaries to buy a large amount, and the price is 4 or 5 yuan higher than the market price, so they do not hesitate to reach out to the ginseng planting alliance to leverage the supply of ginseng cultivation alliance.

But they didn't know that Jiagu had already prepared.

Because of the panic buying by South Koreans, it has added fuel to the increase in ginseng prices this year, and the price of ginseng has been rising since May and June.

The average ginseng farmer can't figure out how the price of ginseng has risen this year, and whether the price will rise next year.

But the ginseng farmers who have joined the ginseng planting alliance have been guaranteed - stabilized, and the current ginseng price is not the end.

That's the benefit of being organized.

Regarding the rapid rise in ginseng prices, both Jiagu and industry insiders like Guo Chunfa said that they were not surprised.

Even Guo Chunfa, a processor who is not happy to see rising costs, has to admit: "Ginseng should have risen a long time ago." After a few years of low prices, it once fell to the 'radish price', and the price deviated too far from the value of ginseng itself. ”

"Every year, when fresh ginseng is about to go on the market, the price of dried ginseng will be smashed down, deliberately suppressing the price of ginseng in the circulation link. If it weren't for the deliberate suppression of the Japanese and South Korean interests hidden behind the scenes, the price would have risen a long time ago. ”

In particular, as more and more ginseng growers join the ginseng planting alliance, the ginseng alliance is more and more confident in the evaluation of ginseng production this year and even in the next few years.

In the past, the information asymmetry and information lag between ginseng cultivation and the market were extremely serious, and there were many links in the middle of ginseng trading, which provided space for speculation for specialized personnel and capital.

Today, that will be the case forever.

"Lao Guo, the price increase is certain, but you don't want to stock up on the benefits. The Ginseng Alliance will have stronger and stronger control over market supply, and it is one of the principles of the alliance to allow participating farmers to share more industry benefits. You can only make efforts in the intensive processing of ginseng to be the right way. Qi Zheng reminded.

Qi Zheng knew that some people who participated in the industrial enterprises were quite angry about the hoarding of South Koreans, and he was a little dissatisfied that he could only accept the increase in the participation price, so Qi Zheng had to say ugly things in front of him, and reminded these enterprises through the mouth of Zixing Pharmaceutical, the largest industrial enterprise in China.

Guo Chunfa nodded slightly, he understood Qi Zheng's intentions.

Because Zixing Pharmaceutical is one of the participating companies that is least worried about the rise in prices. At present, Zixing Pharmaceutical has developed nearly 100 specifications of five series of ginseng products, realizing the comprehensive development and utilization of ginseng from roots to stems, leaves, fruits and flowers, and a ginseng plant can achieve value-added from more than ten times to dozens of times - Qi Zheng is right, this is the king.

Moreover, the Ginseng Alliance will not watch South Koreans stock up at low prices.

"We have started to establish a reserve system to prevent the price from being maliciously manipulated, and of course to ensure that the supply of raw materials for domestic participating enterprises will not be broken; in addition, the alliance is establishing a black and white list of ginseng traders, and the export of ginseng can be, but according to the price of the alliance. Otherwise, after joining the blacklist, they will be subject to joint sanctions by the Ginseng Alliance and the government......" Qi Zheng said coldly.

Guo Chunfa slapped his thigh and said, "It's long overdue! Some accounts should have been settled a long time ago." ”

The highest grade and most expensive medicinal materials in China are mostly exported to Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, which is a well-known ecology in the domestic Chinese herbal medicine industry, and has been the case since the era of planned economy - high-quality ginseng is used for export to earn foreign exchange, followed by pharmaceutical companies, and the rest of the worst quality is sold to China.

But that's not pleasing to you.

Through various means, Japanese and South Korean participating enterprises have destroyed the reputation and industrial base of Chinese ginseng, and also caused the largest ginseng exporter to lose export pricing power, until now, when talking about Chinese ginseng in the international market, it is basically "heavy metal", "pesticide exceedance", "poor quality" and other words. The most hateful thing is that while they are talking, they secretly buy Chinese ginseng in large quantities.

Insiders like Guo Chunfa have long hoped to erect the banner of "resistance". It's just that for a long time, if you want to integrate the upstream and downstream industrial chains, you need to have strong capital, technology, products, and brand strength, and it is difficult to find such a leading enterprise - until Jiagu was born.

But to be honest, Qi Zheng really didn't take the South Korean companies jumping up and down in his eyes.

Even the entire ginseng industry is not large. It's just that domestic demand has been sluggish for a long time and is overly dependent on international exports, which has led to the "price of ginseng selling radish".

If ginseng is widely accepted in the domestic market, ginseng production is far from enough, and it would be in vain for South Koreans to spend more than they can.

What Jiagu needs to do is to stabilize the basic plate of ginseng planting, attract upstream and downstream group development, build the "Changbai Mountain Ginseng" brand, patiently cultivate the domestic market, and the revitalization of the domestic ginseng industry will be unstoppable.

......

Park Chan-young of the South Korean Ginseng Corporation didn't know that he was as calm as Gagu, who was facing the enemy.

At the moment, his eyes were confused.

After suffering from all kinds of difficulties in the promotion of the South Korean ginseng brand, his ginseng raw material procurement in China has also fallen into a quagmire.

The acquisition of high-quality raw materials has hit a wall everywhere, and the ginseng purchased can be guaranteed to be crooked melons and cracked dates......

——The influence of the ginseng alliance led by Jiagu is so influential!

If the export quotation of the ginseng alliance is fed back by the agent, it will directly lead to a fourfold increase in the cost of ginseng imported from China by Japan and South Korea this year.

Suppress?

Seeing that the brand of "Changbai Mountain Ginseng" is famous in all directions, Zixing Pharmaceutical and other participating industrial enterprises have risen strongly, the transformation and value-added speed of Chinese ginseng has been significantly accelerated, and the product types and economic benefits have increased geometrically...... At least in China, it would be good if South Korean participation in enterprises was not suppressed.

A voice quietly emerged in Park Chan-young's heart: South Korean participating companies can no longer take advantage of the "big bargain" in the Chinese market for a long time, and this cheap ginseng raw material market is gone!

He thought deeper, the Chinese ginseng industry is still mainly targeting the local market, and the next day, they will go out of the international market, what kind of pressure is it?
