Chapter 515: Smuggling Rice
Consumers in other cities have called on Bluestar Group to build planting buildings in their own cities on the Internet, hoping that they can also eat green and pollution-free food.
"Envy the life of the people in Jiangcheng! Breathe the freshest air, eat the cleanest food, and enjoy the most advanced technology, this is the most developed place in China. ”
"Escape from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, let's go to Jiangcheng! The housing prices in Jiangcheng City have not risen much in recent years, and it is really suitable for living! ”
"Look at our deep market! Look at other people's river cities again! In addition to the housing prices in Shenzhen that are better than those in Jiangcheng, what else can compare to Jiangcheng? The working environment, the quality of life, the natural environment? What is like the others! Ten years ago, it was said that Shenzhen was the future science and technology city of Huaguo, but now it seems that Shenzhen is just a city of house slaves in Huaguo, one square meter of 200,000, why not rob the bank! Jiangcheng is only more than 40,000!! ”
Netizens are discussing, complaining, and looking forward to it, waiting for the Bluestar Group to make a statement.
Bluestar Group did not respond to this, and building a plantation building is not as simple as building a house.
The success in Jiangcheng City is due to the policy support of Jiangcheng City, so the planting building will be successfully completed.
But what about in other cities?
Local protectionism is not as simple as netizens imagined, and once the planting building is built, the impact on the local economy is not limited to agricultural products.
Chen Nuo is waiting for an opportunity for Jiangcheng City to organically combine elements such as science and technology, agriculture, property market, economy, and environmental protection to become a real future city, so that the high-level can see the direction of future national development and make up their minds to promote, and then it is time for the planting community to promote it to the whole country. At present, the main energy of Bluestar Group is still in Jiangcheng.
Jiangcheng City once again approved a total of 500 acres of land in Chengbei District, Chengxi District, Chengdong District, Chengnan District and other places to be handed over to Bluestar Group for the construction of planting buildings.
It is expected that in one year, the agricultural products of Bluestar Ecological Agriculture Company will cover every Jiangcheng person, and the lucky Jiangcheng citizens will be able to enjoy truly green food and the healthiest lifestyle.
Chen Nuozheng's technical team went deep into the rural areas of Jiangcheng City to inspect the farmland and the living conditions of farmers in Jiangcheng City.
While other cities in China were still observing the performance of the growing communities, Tsujigami Tsuji, the owner of Wakoku Marubeni Co., Ltd. (the largest grain merchant in Wakoku, involved in grain trading, food processing and other industries, a member of the Fuji consortium of the six major chaebols of Wakoku, and holding shares with Fuji, Nissan, Canon Hitachi, and other Fuji consortium companies) went to a supermarket in Gangcheng to buy rice, fruits, vegetables, and other products from the Blue Star Eco-Agriculture Company.
Tsujigami went to the hotel where he was staying and asked the kitchen to cook the ingredients and taste them carefully.
As the largest grain merchant owner in the Japanese country, I have never seen any quality of food.
But the food produced by Blue Star Eco-Agriculture really conquered Tsujiuehara's taste buds, and Tsuji Uehara thought that Blue Star Eco-Agriculture's rice was 100 times better than Hokkaido's high-end rice.
If such rice becomes popular in China, there will be no place for Marubeni in the Chinese market, and the sudden emergence of Bluestar Group in the agricultural market will have a huge impact on traditional agriculture.
This is both a challenge and an opportunity.
I also have to admire the attitude of the Japanese people to take advantage of the trend, and Tsuji Uehara chose to cooperate with the Blue Star Group.
There are many companies that confront the Bluestar Group, from the very beginning of Samsung, Sony to later Intel and various car companies and pharmaceutical companies, undoubtedly not ending up miserable.
Marubeni's strength is not as strong as these companies, but as a century-old store, he has his own way of doing business.
But how to cooperate, that's the problem. Collaboration and research, the two never conflict.
Due to inspection and quarantine reasons, rice, vegetables and fruits cannot be exported.
Tsuji Uehara immediately contacted the food company in which Marubeni had a stake in China to inspect Bluestar's ecological agricultural products using the Wakoku food standards.
The result is certainly perfect!
Tsujiuehara suspended his plans to return to China, and he asked a large supermarket in which Marubeni had a stake to immediately open a branch in Jiangcheng City, and then bought a large amount of grain and vegetables from the planting building at the supermarket purchase price at the Blue Star Ecological Agriculture Company in the name of the supermarket.
The Jiangcheng city government now has a policy, all supermarkets in Jiangcheng City, as long as the purchase of agricultural products produced by the planting building will be given by the dealer sales price given by Bluestar Ecological Agriculture Company, this price is about 10% cheaper than the sales price, deducting the cost of the dealer, the net profit can be 5%-7%!
Bluestar Group's products are not sold, there will be no inventory, and the profit can reach 7% is quite considerable! The supermarket basically earns when you get the goods.
Tsujiuehara is indeed very smart, and before getting the cooperation agreement with the Blue Star Group, agricultural products will not be able to get out of the customs.
So, he came up with two options.
One is that the Blue Star Group agrees to cooperate, so import and export are logical.
One is that the Bluestar Group refuses to cooperate, so Marubeni has no choice but to use extraordinary means to disguise the agricultural products in the planting building as agricultural products purchased by its own company in China, and then transport them out of the country.
Agricultural products are not as highly differentiated as chips and mobile phones, and if the customs do not strictly inspect them, it is impossible to distinguish whether these products are produced by the Bluestar Group or purchased by Marubeni Corporation in China.
Tsujiuehara made full use of his ingenuity, and he first negotiated with Guardian Foods, a European food factory controlled by Marubeni's subsidiary, and the Blue Star Group, hoping to export purely ecological agricultural products to countries such as Bangguo, Wakoku, and Lion City.
Bluestar Group is also more active in cooperation, and it is of course good that its products can be exported abroad. But! But here's the problem!
The export price will be more than 5 times the domestic sales price!
Taking grain as an example, the rice in the planting building is sold for 20 yuan a catty in Huaguo supermarkets (slightly higher than the high-quality rice in the market), but when exported to Europe, the Bluestar Group charges 80 yuan per catty.
Tsuji Uehara vomits blood! Bluestar Group is really ruthless! This price is more expensive than buying it at the supermarket!
In fact, this is also normal, the kimchi of Bangguo is not worth much in Bangguo, and it costs dozens of yuan a pound to sell it in Huaguo!
After arduous negotiations, the Bluestar Group did not budge.
The mentality of the Blue Star Group is very good, before the market is saturated, it does not matter whether agricultural products are exported abroad or not, so you love to buy it or not.
With no hope of negotiations, Tsujiuehara chose the last resort.
The agricultural products purchased at low prices in the name of supermarkets are packaged as products of foreign trade companies and then transported to the country.
In fact, this way is - smuggling!
The 100 tons of rice, various vegetables and fruits purchased from Bluestar Ecological Agriculture Company in the name of supermarkets were packaged as agricultural products purchased by an import and export company in China, and were shipped and transported to the country together with ordinary agricultural products.
