"Is China Resources Group from Hong Kong?" asked Liu Dingxin.

"Yes. ”

"Then what am I going to do? ”

"You personally go to Shenzhen, to contact the Shenzhen Textile Import and Export Company, entrust them, at the end of this year, to help us export about 5,000 tons of raw cotton, this is a big order, they will receive you, and then let the textile import and export company, help contact the China Resources Trade Department, let the opposite side handle it. ”

The second monk Liu Dingxin was puzzled: "This, this, can you explain it in detail?"

"Simple, let them help us export agents. ”

"Let them act as an agent? Oh, I see, but aren't we registered in Hong Kong as a trading company, what is China Resources doing when you contact that?"

Fan Yang only had the patience to explain to Liu Dingxin.

The raw cotton trade he wants to operate is actually very simple, the purchased raw cotton is exported to Hong Kong and hoarded.

Then just sit back and wait for the price to rise.

The plunge in the past two years is mainly due to the fact that Kazakhstan has just become independent and is eager to sell cotton and mineral resources in exchange for basic living materials.

But it won't take two years to get over.

Even without the tariffs imposed by the United States, it is only a matter of time before prices recover.

At present, there are many people who have entered the raw cotton market and stockpiled goods.

However, cotton is a sensitive national material after all, and the export rights of state-owned trading companies were only released in 89 years, and only some state-designated units can be exported.

Shenzhen Textile Export Company is one of them.

You can't get around it.

Second, China Resources Group.

This is a behemoth, a Fortune 500 company, with 5 listed companies in Hong Kong: China Resources Land, China Resources Venture, China Resources Gas, China Resources Cement, and China Resources Power.

His basic consumer goods have also done very well, such as snow beer and Cestbon mineral water in later generations, which are all brands of China Resources.

This company is in Hong Kong, but it is not a Hong Kong company.

It's a state-owned enterprise.

The mainland has laid a lot of industries in Hong Kong, and has a very wide and huge influence, just like the S mentioned earlier, China COSCO Group, the silver capital of the film industry, China Resources is one of them, and it is involved in electricity, gas, energy, medicine, consumer goods, real estate, and finance in Hong Kong.

Qin Bangli, who was then an economic official of the Eighth Route Army Office in Wuhan, carried two gold bars to open a trading house in Hong Kong.

In 1948, it was renamed China Resources Company, established Huaxia Shipping Company, opened up a sea communication route from Hong Kong to Qingdao, Dalian and North Korea's Qingjin, and was responsible for the dispatch of foreign materials from the mainland to Hong Kong, and operated entrepot trade, until 1980, when it began to set foot in energy, electricity, consumer goods, real estate and other infrastructure industries.

Therefore, China Resources has a very special identity.

Since 1952, it is the general agent of all import and export companies in Hong Kong.

By 1993, the private textile export rights have been liberalized, especially the threshold for exporting to Hong Kong, which can be said to be very low, but the raw cotton is different, and it must go through these two companies.

After explaining like this, Liu Dingxin understood.

Fan Yang hung up the phone, and just wanted to go upstairs, when he turned around and saw Wenwen and Zhong Ting, two girls, holding a few handfuls of mutton skewers in their hands and carrying a few bottles of drinks.

"Stop, what's in your hand?"

The two girls exclaimed and were about to run upstairs.

was caught up by Fan Yang: "Didn't you ask you not to go out and run around at night." ”

The two girls were arrested and stood there not daring to speak.

was reprimanded by Fan Yang, and half of the mutton skewers were snatched away before letting them go back.

I took a bite and it tasted good.

When I returned to the room, I also took two strings for Lu Zhengshan.

The two of them lay on the bed and chatted: "By the way, where are you from?" asked Fan Yang.

"Lanzhou's. ”

"You're from Lanzhou? ”

"It's been out for so long, and the accent has been worn out. ”

"Then how did you run to the new reins in the first place?" Fan Yang asked seriously.

Lu Zhengshan was stunned, thought about it for a while, he was working under others, and it was also appropriate to understand his basic situation, and said honestly: "The technical school I used to study in was assigned to work in the first cotton spinning factory in Dingxi after graduation, do you know the 85-year cotton war?"

"85 years?" Fan Yang became interested and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

Lu Zhengshan fell into reminiscence, paused for a while and said slowly: "I am older than you, I have experienced more, I was not yet 30 years old at that time, business ability is still OK, after the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, production, sales, are responsible for themselves, the state is no longer unified dispatch of raw materials, so our factory also set up a sales department and procurement department, when I was young, and then a little popular, I was transferred to the procurement department, the main work content, is to the new rein to purchase raw cotton, so in the past." ”

"So, what does that cotton war mean?"

"This, mainly the imbalance between supply and demand, at that time everything has changed, not only state-owned enterprises are responsible for their own profits and losses, local governments are also responsible for their own profits and losses, at that time the product was hot, as long as it is a product, can create economic benefits, so various places have built a lot of companies, factories and mines, you know, 84 years is the first year of the company, large and small companies, private enterprises, suddenly appeared, a large number of township enterprises appeared, the market soon showed a blowout state, the supply of raw materials can not keep up, the most sought-after is the textile and tobacco industry, cotton war, jute war, silkworm cocoon war, tobacco war, catch what to grab what, the market is messed up, the Cotton War and the Tobacco War had the worst impact, and later they were strictly controlled by the state. ”

"What do you say about bad influence?" Fan Yang asked.

"Caused a rush to buy, the price doubled, and the quality, poor, messy, cotton picking is not graded at all, what cotton is easy to sell, it was originally sold by the state, once it was released, it was all messed up, and then the private cotton trading market was closed, and the tobacco was the same, private trading was prohibited, until 89 years, the cotton market was reopened. ”

Fan Yang sighed.

Probably understood.

"Then you made money during the cotton war, and then the raw cotton market was regulated, and the financial road was cut off, so you embarked on the road of Hetian Yu, right?"

Speaking of this, Lu Zhengshan's face instantly darkened.

"In those years, I made a lot of money, and several of my friends earned money, and they all went back to open spinning factories and garment factories, and they transformed smoothly, but I was different, I was cheated. ”

"What's going on?"

"I was swept away by my accomplices, and I was swept away by hundreds of thousands of dollars that should have been distributed to me, leaving me with a few thousand yuan, so I had no choice but to run to gamble. ”

Fan Yang laughed.

It's also too depressing.

But this was a common occurrence back then.

Fan Yang can imagine that if this business can continue, then everyone will naturally be happy.

Once the raw cotton market is controlled and the financial route is cut off, everyone's thoughts will be different.

It's normal to abscond with money.

"Okay, you still have a story, what about later?"

"Speaking of which, you don't believe it, I was also crazy at the time, but I was surprisingly lucky, 2,000 yuan, gambled a piece of mutton fat white jade, sold it for 60,000 yuan, and made a fortune again. ”
