Chapter 279: A $7 Billion Estate

It's normal for people to go to high places.

Money, no one doesn't like it.

Ocean fishing is hard.

Some of the people who are engaged in this industry have no choice, and some are just to make more money.

It's not as poetic as I imagined.

After going to sea, I came to the operation area, and every day was to work and work......

Tight space, high-intensity work. If you can't earn money that you can't earn from ordinary jobs, who wants to suffer from this.

This is true for ordinary workers, and the same is true for managers of fishing vessels.

Fishing vessel managers, such as captains, are more knowledgeable. Know the risks of this industry, but also know the profits of this industry.

Of course, some capable captains.

It is still possible to make money from ocean fishing, and if it is not profitable, who wants to do this job.

It's like every industry is like a pyramid.

Below the pyramid, earn some hard-earned money and mix up food and clothing. Those at the top of the pyramid are just like the people at the top of the pyramid in other industries, making huge profits.

Seeing that his former colleagues had their own fishing boats and earned a huge fortune in a short period of time, Zhou Jianguo was not a saint, and while envying in his heart, he was also thinking about himself.

Zhou Jianguo is also a capable person, and the fishing boat he leads brings tens of millions of profits to the company every year. But he himself gets a salary of more than 10,000 yuan every month, plus some bonuses...... 400,000 in a year.

Zhou Jianguo had also thought about building an ocean-going fishing boat by himself before, but buying an ocean-going fishing boat was not as easy as he imagined. In the simplest terms, it's money......

Distant-water fishing vessels are often millions or tens of millions. Even if he is a joint venture with someone, it will be difficult for him to find such a large amount of money.

……

Coming to Dabai, Zhou Jianguo looked at the configuration of the fishing boat comparable to that of a luxury yacht, no, this fishing boat is even higher than the configuration of a luxury yacht...... I also envy in my heart.

"I haven't seen you in years." Lin Xinhai hugged Zhou Jianguo, and only let go for a while, and looked at Zhou Jianguo: "I was in the south before, and I called you to come and get together, but you didn't have time."

Zhou Jianguo spread his hands and pointed to the purse seine fishing boat next to him: "That fishing boat is not mine, so you can't be casual."

"Then why are you coming down again now?" Gao He stepped forward and hugged Zhou Jianguo: "I told you to come back and partner with me to build a fishing boat, but you just refused."

"I don't have any money." Zhou Jianguo said helplessly.

Zhou Jianguo has three sons, triplets, all of whom are now in junior high school, and the family has a lot of expenses.

And Zhou Jianguo is not like Lin Xinhai, Gao He's family is in a coastal economically developed area......

Relying on wages alone, you can save some money, but there is still too much to do with Zhou Jianguo's partnership in fishing boats.

"You don't have any money." Gao He rolled his eyes: "Don't say too much, you can always take out a million." My boat is now a partnership of 7 people......

"You fishing boats don't make any money." Zhou Jianguo said with a smile.

"Earned, earned, earned. It's much better to run your own fishing boat than to work part-time." Gao He smiled and said, "But I don't make much. Just this time with Chen Yuan and them, hahaha......"....

It's only been less than a month, and the income is in the millions. The fees for entering the fishing VDS are earned back.

There is still a month to go, and if it is done well, I dare not think about it, and it should be possible to earn three or four million yuan from the shares of all the fishing boats in Gaohe, before the end of the fishing season.

PNA, a member of the Nauru Agreement.

Previously spent millions, mainly to get fishing vessels into the VDS of the PNA, with the names of their own fishing vessels on the IFIM system.

The IFIM system is an integrated fishery information and management system. The system is a VDS software system designed by an Australian company for PNA to run on the Internet.

The main functions of the system are threefold.

Check the number of days of fishing vessel operation online, and declare fishing online

The number of days the ship is not working.

Some things are understood, and they are very simple. But for those who don't understand, it's like reading a book from heaven.

Fishing in PNA is easy to say. But let no layman operate and enter it, that is to be blinded.

If you want to fish exclusively in the PNA, the first fishing vessel to be registered, many people do not know how to register.

And even if you know, it's not easy to get inside. This doesn't mean you can fill out an application online......

There's a lot of jargon involved here.

The PNA can be understood as a member of the Nauru Agreement. Then the fisheries management model developed by the member countries of this agreement is called VDS.

The VDS fishery management model, which is limited and limits the total number of fishing vessels. If a small company goes to apply and there is no way, it will not be easy to pass the review. Then there is a quota, and there are not many domestic fishing boats here.

I still remember that when Chen Yuan and his fleet first came to Tawala Island, their fishing boat installed a signal transmitter, which seemed to be called ALC.

The operation of the VDS is based on the FFA Vessel Monitoring System (VMS). Any fishing vessel registered with the VDS in the VDS management area must be fitted with an Automatic Positioning Communicator (ALC) that works continuously.

Chen Yuan can quickly enter the fishing VDS, and the 2.9 million yuan given to the Dongjiang fishery is not a loss.

In addition to the value of the fishing vessels themselves, the added value of the fishing vessels has also increased.

This one is like a fishing license in the Indian Ocean.

In fact, the previous investment in fishing can be regarded as the investment in fixed assets.

Gao He's previous catch was worth more than five million, and it can't be said that it's just a return to capital, he has actually earned millions.

Gao He is very easy now, he has made money. Even if there is no harvest in the following time, his fishing boat has already made money, at least it will not be lost.

Zhou Jianguo smiled: "Your dense array, how is the fish?"

"There are a lot of sardines, bonito, and so on in the Phalanx, and there are few tuna." Lin Xinhai said.

"The tuna migration hasn't arrived yet, so wait." Zhou Jianguo said, "If you gather the small fish first, you will definitely attract tuna later."

"Do you catch a lot of tuna?" Lin Xinhai asked.

Zhou Jianguo shook his head: "It can only be said that it is decent. In the PNA, skipjack tuna is the most, followed by tuna. The tuna is now too scattered, and with fish collectors, the number of nets lifted at a time is very small."

Zhou Sheng turned his head: "PNA's tuna industry claims to be as high as 7 billion US dollars, which is a bit unworthy of its name."

Zhou Jianguo looked at Zhou Sheng with a smile and said, "The PNA is so big, you have also fished in the Gilbert Islands. There's a lot of tuna here, but that's the year-round catch, and it's the whole PNA year."

"PNA's tuna industry is really $7 billion?" Luo Laosi asked.

Zhou Jianguo shrugged: "There should be." But our domestic fishing vessels have too little share of the PNA."

Chen Yuan pointed to Xiaoma Jindao: "The old cousin of Jianguo finally came to our boat, we drove the boat over, and stopped for a hot pot."

"Wow."
