Chapter 989 American grain giant ADM enters the country
In early June, Mr. Lin sent Mr. Tian and his family of three out of the country to Oklahoma City, one of the country's major health care centers. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A professional gastric cancer medical research institute received them, Tian Jianpeng will stay in the United States for a while, Lin Qiangsheng has arranged everything for them, the house, car, tickets, including the problem of children's schooling have also been solved.
Two days later, Alan Andres, chairman of the American grain group ADM, and his party visited Ben Thanh.
The welcoming ceremony was very solemn, and the principal leaders of the provinces and cities were present, including Sun Weiben, secretary of the provincial government, Hou Jie, governor of the province, and mayor Yan Miyamoto, and the central authorities also sent a principal official of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation.
ADM is one of the largest grain processing companies in the United States and an international grain giant, and the central government also attaches great importance to their visits.
This time, Allen and his entourage first came to the country to inspect H Province, and it is very likely to invest in the province, so the provincial party committee and the provincial government gave them ultra-high standards of reception, and there are many quiet streets, convoys, and motorcycles, and even the main roads from the airport to the city have been cleaned.
Alan was very happy to see the Lin family sisters and brothers: "Mr. Lin, Ms. Lin, I see you again, I still remember the last time you visited our company in the United States, this time it was my turn to visit, this is called courtesy exchange!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng listened to the other party speaking strange Chinese, and laughed: "The Chinese pay attention to the courtesy and exchange that I give you things, and you give me gifts in return, which is similar to your Western AA system, except that one was at the time and the other was later." ”
In front of the provincial and municipal leaders, Lin Qiangsheng said to Allen: "Then this time, do you ADM also want to give me something back, after all, our Dongxing has invested a lot in ADM and bought a lot of machinery and equipment." I don't want anything else, as long as Mr. Allen agrees to invest in us! ”
He said these words in Chinese, and the leaders also understood that this is to invest. With everyone's minds, they all nodded secretly, watching how Allen, the big CEO of an American company, answered.
Seeing that Alan hesitated, Sun Weiben immediately followed and said: "If you can invest in our province, we will give ADM the greatest preferential policy, welcome your arrival!" ”
"I will carefully consider Mr. Lin's suggestion!" Alan didn't expect Lishang to have such an interpretation, he nodded and said: "The purpose of our visit this time is to inspect the agricultural situation in Province H and establish a soybean reserve base here. ”
"We have some data, the soybean production in H province ranks first in China, we have a good foundation for cooperation, if the conditions are possible, ADM will consider deepening cooperation!"
Although he didn't get a specific promise, but Allen can say that it can be regarded as a good start, Governor Hou secretly nodded like Lin Qiangsheng, and said with a smile: "Boy, you can do it, you have brought such a big food giant, and even the central government attaches great importance to it!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng shook his head: "It seems that ADM is very determined to establish a soybean processing base in the southern coastal areas, and they just want to turn Province H into a raw material base." ”
Hou Jie nodded and said with a sigh: "We have this preparation, after all, there is a huge gap with the south, where the economy is developing rapidly and the population is large. However, we can rely on the advantages of a large soybean planting province to make some articles, how can a multinational company as big as ADM make them bleed! ”
Lin Qiangsheng looked at Governor Hou with his hands behind his back with a resolute face, and smiled secretly, this old man seemed to be holding back his thoughts.
Everyone got into the car and drove to the provincial capital, and it took nearly an hour to arrive at the city economic development zone, which took a bit of time.
"It takes too much time to get from the airport to the city, how can the airport be built so far!"
"Who says it's not, everyone has a subway at the airport in the United States, and we can only take the car."
Many leaders complained about this, and the provincial secretary and governor were also embarrassed, for fear that foreign guests would have opinions, so they hurriedly arranged to visit the newly established Arowana edible oil production base according to their agenda.
"Lin Xiang, you have to introduce the foreign guests well, it's up to you whether they invest or not!" Hou Jie asked Lin Xiang.
Lin Xiang smiled and said, "I still have confidence in the province, don't worry, governor." ”
Allen and his party of 7 people, including analysts and agricultural experts, just approached the workshop when they smelled the smell of oil.
"Visitors are only allowed to enter the workshop if they change into our clothes, please follow the procedures I demonstrated and take care of your hygiene!"
The workshop is isolated by a large area of glass, and inside the glass is a highly clean production area, Lin Xiang came to the glass entrance, changed into a white coat, put on a hat and mask, washed his hands, and sprayed disinfectant....."
Lin Qiangsheng said to everyone: "Everyone, we have established a sound edible oil quality management system here, and what you see is one of the key points of supervision. The faucets here are also non-contact, so please do not touch them to avoid secondary pollution during cleaning. ”
Seeing that the leaders are more curious, Lin Qiangsheng said: "Don't underestimate these details, the food safety and hygiene of edible oil are related to the health and well-being of customers, and also related to the reputation and reputation of our manufacturers. ”
This is not an opportunity to publicize to everyone, the provincial and municipal leaders listened to his introduction one by one showed a look of appreciation, it turned out that a small soybean oil can make so many articles, so fresh and refined.
"Let's all go in and have a look, Mr. Allen, please!" Governor Hou Jie said enthusiastically.
Alan nodded and said with a smile: "Then we might as well be respectful!" He began to use idioms again, but only four people could enter the wind shower room at a time, so it took a while for everyone to get in.
After entering the production room, Lin Xiang first carefully checked the surrounding environment and situation, and only after everyone entered, did he lead everyone to the conveyor belt of refined oil.
She pointed to two inconspicuous steel pipes and introduced them to everyone: "Everyone, please see, these two thin steel pipes are actually metal detectors, which monitor whether the oil is mixed with metal elements during the production and transportation process. ”
The entire production process is made of stainless steel containers, and the simple production workshop in everyone's eyes is full of risk points in the eyes of Lin Xiang.
The whole production environment is very clean and efficient, there is a fully automated production line, and the empty bottles produced from the bottle manufacturing plant upstairs are already filled with oil at the other end of the downstairs and waiting to be boxed.
Everyone was amazed, it was the first time they had seen such a factory with so few people, there was no need for manual work in the workshop, the whole process was automated, and people only needed to look at the equipment.
However, Allen and these Americans all showed expressions of appreciation, and they were also shocked that Dongxing Group was able to build such a high-standard production workshop, and had a new understanding of China's industrial level.
Looking at the production of boxes of finished edible oil, the leaders are very happy, and they also have a new understanding of edible oil production.
It turns out that high-quality oil is produced in this way, and some people still eat loose oil at home, which is simply incomparable with the products here. Some people have since switched to eating this kind of bottled cooking oil, bulk oil can no longer be eaten, safe and hygienic, even foreigners thumbs up the product is good.
Next, they visited the oil storage area, a sprawling site with dozens of towering tanks, gray tanks reflecting the heat of the sun, and narrow gangways spiraling upwards.
"This is the storage place of our edible oil raw materials, each tank is 19 meters high, and of course there is such a large oil storage area under construction in Kedong County, Q City."
Someone touched the body of the can and found that it was very hot, and he suddenly exclaimed: "It's so hot, the oil in it is cooked!" ”
Lin Xiang reminded: "Be careful, the outer wall of the oil tank is indeed very hot, but in fact, there is a thermal insulation device inside, although the outer wall is hot, the inside of the tank can be kept at room temperature, and the grease can naturally be stored for a long time." ”
She said to the crowd: "The staff will measure the oil temperature and oil height in these oil tanks every day, which are two important parameters for identifying oil products. The oil purchased by our group is usually short of two catties, and the weight must be calculated through measurement, which is an important basis for controlling the quality of oil raw materials! ”
Only then did everyone understand that these gray jars were all insulated, Hou Jie nodded and agreed: "Love to do one line and one line, your Dongxing Group is also very professional in cooking oil, just one oil tank is very knowledgeable!" ”
Everyone nodded their heads, and everyone also felt that this edible oil factory was definitely not simple, and how much money would be invested in these things just by seeing them!
Allen and others are also estimating in their hearts, they see Dongxing's technical level and management ability in edible oil, and secretly assess the situation of China's soybean market, but this still needs a few important data, China's edible oil production and sales, and the future market value-added potential.
At present, there are also foreign edible oil companies that have entered China, such as Singapore's Kwok Brothers Grains and Oils Pte Ltd., and Kerry Grains and Oils China Ltd. in Hong Kong, China (created the Arowana brand in 1991).
They do know that most of the current Chinese eat bulk oil, and Kerry cooperates with China to sell their bottled edible oil, and the bottled edible oil produced here by Dongxing Group should be China's first small-packaged edible oil manufacturer.
China's edible oil market is like a wild land, its prospects are very broad, Allen and others also see the huge business opportunities here, they are more confident in this trip to China! (To be continued.) )
