Chapter 528: Fewer Bluefin Tuna
In the future, when buying a car in a 4S store, you must also buy insurance in the store, and besides, Shuichi Minamino's insurance did not trap them. The price of pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info is about the same as that outside, and it is convenient to handle one-stop service here. Therefore, most consumers are still willing to buy insurance in the store.
With the advent of Nanno Insurance Company, Nanno Automobile's customers basically switched to Nanno Insurance Company's car insurance. As a result, many insurance companies have been affected by their business!
Mitsui Insurance Company.
"Yaga! I didn't expect this Shuichi Minamino to open an insurance company. Now let's have our car insurance customers plummet!" Kinaki Mitsui roared in the office. This is not to blame for his anger, because the current sales of Nanno automobiles account for 50% of the market share of automobile sales in the entire island country! In other words, in this way, Nanno Shuichi alone swallowed 50% of the market share of car insurance.
This is the reason why Shuichi Minamino is confident in opening an insurance company, because his automobile company's car sales firmly occupy the first place in the market, and the proportion of sales share is also very large.
In this way, he is not worried at all that no one will buy car insurance, and the number of customers who buy his car alone is a huge number.
"Lost at the hands of a car company!" Mitsui Jinming sighed.
Not only Mitsui Jinming, but other large insurance companies are also gritting their teeth against Shuichi Minamino, do you dare to believe that a newly established insurance company suddenly won 50% of the car insurance market share?
But no matter how much they hate it, they can only jump to their feet, and they can't do anything about Shuichi Minamino at all. After all, the number of car customers is there, and people don't have to compete with you at all, and they can have a huge number of customers.
Every plan of Shuichi Minamino, every company he opens, and every strategy he decides on are making his Minamino Group continue to grow. He believes that in a few years, his Minamino Group will become an existence that is feared by the consortium.
…………
On this day, Shuichi Minamino and Aoko Yagyu and Masako Yanagi returned to the Hokkaido side. After not going to sea for a long time, he plans to go on a summer fishing trip!
In fact, it was mainly because he heard from the people at the fishing company that there were fewer and fewer bluefin tuna caught recently.
Nemuro City, Minamino Fishing Company.
"President, long time no see!"
When Shuichi Minamino came back one by one, Old Man Kimura, Ishida, Tanimura Ueno and others came to his office to catch up with him. These people were the first people to fight with him.
After some nonsense, Shuichi Minamino asked, "I heard that there have been fewer and fewer bluefin tuna caught in Hokkaido fishing grounds this year?"
Actually, since last year, the number of bluefin tuna caught by our fishing fleet has been decreasing. This year, however, it continues to decrease. Old man Kimura said in a deep voice.
Now, the price of bluefin tuna is becoming more and more expensive. One is that bluefin tuna is a good thing, and the other is that with distant-water fishing going on for almost a decade, it's a bit overfished.
"Well, it looks like we're going to go fishing far away. Either rely on imports!" Shuichi Minamino said after a few seconds of silence.
It's 1959, and it's about to enter the 60s.
Since the fifties, with the development of fishing and freezing technology, the sea has become a hunting ground for humans.
Around 1960, the U.S. imperialists used trawling nets to catch large quantities of Atlantic bluefin for canning, resulting in a significant reduction in the population of bluefin juveniles. So this is not to mention the Hokkaido fishing grounds. The number of bluefins in Hokkaido's fishing grounds decreased dramatically in the 60s. By the 70s, the bluefin in Hokkaido fisheries was almost the most prized fish, and there was no one!
So now that there was a sharp decrease in the late fifties, Minamino Shukazu knew it early on.
Around 1970, the island nation began to use airplanes to transport frozen Atlantic bluefins (at that time a pound was worth only a few cents) from the United States and Canada, which was well received.
That is, a few cents a pound, but a 150-kilogram adult bluefin also costs about $170. 170 US dollars per fish converted into yen, that is close to 60,000 yen a fish!
This is still the local wholesale price from the Canadian side, and if it is shipped to the island country, it is estimated that the price will double or even more!
So far, the price of a bluefin in the island country has been 890,000 yen. And the price is still increasing all the time. Mainly in Hokkaido fishing grounds, there are fewer and fewer bluefins. Moreover, in this era, the island countries have not yet started to import bluefins from Canada. It only started in the 70s.
The reason why the bluefin in Canada is cheap is mainly because people fish in the Atlantic, and the bluefin there belongs to the most places in the world. But Shuichi Minamino doesn't have to be envious, because he knows the trajectory of history, and he knows that the Atlantic Ocean was almost wiped out in the late 70s!
In other words, the people over there won't be able to jump for a few days.
"Rely on imports?" asked Tanimura Ueno, a little confused.
"Yes, there is a growing demand for bluefins in island nations right now. We should import some bluefins. Maybe the cost of fishing will be lower, and the profit will be even higher!" said Shuichi Minamino.
"That's ...... The cost of shipping imports is very high, huh?"
"Importing to that place?" Old man Kimura was also interested.
"Go to Canada and the United States. They are close to the Atlantic Ocean, and the bluefin in the Atlantic Ocean is the largest in the world! I have heard that the bluefin on their side is now sold very cheaply, half cheaper than ours! If we import it, it is completely profitable. Minamino smiled.
"Really?"
"The Atlantic, the Atlantic Ocean, our fleet went once, and we did find that the tuna was very dense! But because the distance was too far for frequent fishing, we didn't go any further. Old man Kimura nodded.
"Then if we transport it, will we choose sea transportation?" asked Ishida Yu. Wouldn't it be too long to choose sea transportation? After all, it would take a few months to get from there.
This has a great impact on the flesh quality of the bluefins.
"We choose to ship by air!" said Shuichi Minamino with a hesitant smile.
"By air?"
"This, this cost is too high, isn't it? It's too extravagant. ”
Indeed, transporting seafood by plane is definitely a luxury in these days! Many people can't afford to fly and let all the fish fly. It's not a luxury!
"Haha, you guys, bluefins are not ordinary fish, they have a high economic value. As long as we calculate an account, as long as we have some money, we can do it!"
