Chapter 704: Amulet
Relying on that sauerkraut processing factory, Xiao's father is now thriving, and his reputation and status are much stronger than before in the system.
There are more than a dozen enterprises engaged in the processing of agricultural products in the county, but most of them are petty and limited by sales channels, and they do not have much scale and cannot produce much benefit.
The biggest thing is that he is the factory director.
And that's not all.
It would be a shame to have a few similar food processing plants this year.
This has really led the local people to get rich and increased the income of farmers.
Not only can it create hundreds of jobs, but more importantly, it can promote local industrial upgrading and benefit thousands of rural families.
For the local area, it is also a real political achievement.
To be able to achieve such results, of course, will be valued.
Real investors are outside the world, and there is no intention of mixing in the hometown circle at present, so these benefits fall on Xiao's father.
For the local level, Xiao's father, who has been working in the system for more than 20 years, also belongs to his own people, and it is easier to communicate.
The local government has hinted to him that after a while, he will be operated into the CPPCC, and the Municipal Entrepreneurs Association has already accepted him, and when the term is changed, he will be at least a director.
The local cooperation is also quite in place, whether it is loans, land grants, or tax reductions, they are quite generous.
We have done our best within the limits of the policy.
Of course, there are also requirements for him - not limited to this village, not limited to this one town, to take a long-term view, to the whole county, to drive more people to get rich, but also to create more jobs.
A county will definitely have more resources than a town, and it will have more opportunities.
Xiao's father would not reject such a thing, but he also knew that Yan Xin's investment in such a company mainly wanted to improve the income of the people in his hometown, not just to make money.
If you want to make money, you can make other investments.
And he also knows that Yan Xin really does not have the idea of relying on this factory to make money, and the money earned last year has basically been spent, invested in capacity expansion, and improved employee treatment, including the fireworks display in the Chinese New Year's Eve.
For places outside of this village or town, whether there is such a thought, it is really not certain.
But that's all in the future, so he didn't refuse such a request, but just said that the radiation range would be expanded in the future.
He is not from this village, he does not have such deep feelings for this village, he thinks more about profit.
From his personal thoughts, of course, he hopes to invest in more places in the future, so that his status will be higher.
Not to mention walking sideways in the local area, but with so many jobs in his hands, at least no one dares to bully him, he will be given a little bit of thin face, and he will become a decent person again.
The word decency is now his greatest pursuit.
The time when he left the system and was looked down upon left a deep memory on him, and he didn't want to go back to that state.
Be respected everywhere you go.
Making money is not so important - this factory is not his, he only receives that salary, the factory is bigger, and he can't raise his salary much, but he has more face.
Now that Xiao Shiyu is so successful in starting a business, even if he doesn't do anything, he will not be short of money.
What he lacks is respect.
Especially after the respect that you once had was deprived of it for a while.
This time, he brought the affirmation of the local leaders for their investment in their hometown, and also brought the good expectations of the local leaders for the future of the company, as well as the request to expand the business to the whole county.
It is only confined to this village and town, and the pattern is too small.
But the pattern should not be too big, and if the business spreads to the whole city, it will let some investment opportunities that could have stayed in the county slip away.
Parents still hope that the benefits will stay in the local area.
So the local idea is to suggest that they look for more opportunities in their own county, but only in this county.
Of course, Xiao's father also made some personal suggestions, and felt that in the future, he could indeed consider other places in the county.
He also has a lot of information on hand, that is, what kind of resources are available in other places in the county, and what can be done.
This was not collected by himself, Yan Xin did not make such a request, and he himself did not have that time.
It was collected by the cadres in those places, and there was quite detailed data.
INTERVIEWER Locally, there are still people who want to do something practical.
The development of the place is beneficial to everyone, so there are still some people who are attentive in this matter.
Sometimes it's just the lack of an investor.
In fact, it is not a lack of funds, but more of a lack of a channel to promote sales.
The problem of capital is actually very easy to solve, but the problem of sales channels is quite difficult.
And Yan Xin here, he has several Internet platforms with a lot of traffic, and a large number of head online stores, which happen to have sales channels and promotion channels.
If someone else does this, there is a high possibility of losing money.
After all, the processing of these agricultural products has no technical content, and many places can do it, and the competition is too fierce.
But Yan Xin, who has promotion and sales channels, has a greater probability of making money.
Just like the current sauerkraut processing factory, it is not that the technology is better than others, but that they have mastered the sales channels, so they can make money.
It can be said that the local government pinned its hopes for the revitalization of local agriculture on Yan Xin, the new Internet tycoon.
Dad Xiao read those materials and had some thoughts in his heart, so he talked to Yan Xin about it during the meal.
I didn't have the information with me, and I couldn't tell you too much detailed data, but he still knew the general things.
In his opinion, there are really a lot of investment opportunities, which can turn their company into a large agricultural product processing enterprise, or even a brand.
"Your opinion is that we will expand our investment in the future? Not only in our village, but also in other villages and towns? Yan Xin asked him with a smile.
"Yes, that's what I thought." Dad Xiao honestly admits it.
And then he said,
"I think this is better for us, it can make our business grow, diversify our operations, increase our ability to resist risks, and finally give back to the society, and also get a better reputation, drive more farmers to get rich, which is equivalent to casting a golden body for us."
He knew what Yan Xin was investing in such a factory in his hometown.
Such a statement is easier to impress him.
Yan Xin originally only wanted to help the villagers improve their living standards, but later felt that it could spread to the whole town, but it could also be dominated by the village.
Didn't want to make a bigger investment.
There were many places in this town that he hadn't been to, and he wasn't familiar with at all, let alone other towns.
Although it can be said that he is a fellow countryman, he really doesn't have much emotion.
There is nothing to make in this, and he never thought of making money from this, and the profits will be returned to the society at that time, and he only earns a word of mouth.
He felt that it was enough to drive half of the town with the village as the core, and it was within his ability, and he couldn't lose a few dollars.
And not too ambitious.
But what Dad Xiao said made him a little moved.
He understood what Xiao's father meant, and casting a golden body was to use the reputation of the villagers to get himself an extra talisman.
With this amulet, you can block many disasters.
Moreover, it will indeed give people a sense of accomplishment by driving farmers to become rich, changing the fate of some rural families, and making their lives better.
He smiled and asked, "How much will it cost to do that?" ”
Dad Xiao said: "In addition to the tens of millions of investments you promised last year, there is no need to invest any more money." ”
"Can it be done?" Yan Xin was surprised, "Just these tens of millions, what can you do?" ”
"It can be done," Xiao's father said, "money is the smallest problem, and they promised that as long as we are willing to invest, make sure that all the investments are local, they can give us low-interest loans, hundreds of millions of dollars." ”
Yan Xin was taken aback: "Such a big courage? Aren't you afraid that we will lose money? ”
"It's just hundreds of millions, you have to invest here, the boss is still you, how can you be afraid?" Dad Xiao smiled.
If Dad Xiao took out a loan by himself, it would be impossible to give him such a large amount.
What if the money is swept away?
What if you lose it?
But Yan Xin is different, a little understanding will know that he is already a billionaire or even more billionaire, what is a loan of hundreds of millions?
Investing locally is also a local benefit, and there is nothing to worry about.
Yan Xin smiled and said, "That's the same thing. ”
He asked him again: "But, aren't you afraid that you will not be able to repay so many loans when the time comes?" There is no technical advantage in the processing of agricultural products, and it may not be able to make money. ”
"My idea is, slowly, step by step."
Dad Xiao said his thoughts,
"Now our sauerkraut processing plant can be sure to be profitable, and the other agricultural product processing plants to be built this year will know whether there is room for profitability until next year. If the profit margin is uncertain, then there is no need for us to expand our investment. If you have a certain profit, there is no need to wait until you return to your capital to increase your investment, you can borrow some money and make new investments. I don't recommend taking out a loan of hundreds of millions at once and starting all those projects, because that would be too risky. However, waiting until you have made money to expand your investment is also a bit slower. Therefore, I think it is best to take out a loan in stages, and take a stable and not too conservative route on the premise that you can determine the ability to repay. ”
Be too conservative and you may miss the best moment.
It's too radical, and you'll get yourself into it.
He thinks it's better to take it and invest in a safe area as much as possible.
Yan Xin thought seriously for a while, then glanced at Feng Xi again, Feng Xi nodded to him, so he said:
"You have a point, you can think about it."
Daddy Xiao's face was happy.
Yan Xin said again: "But this year, let's still engage in the investments that we said last year, and if we do a good job of those investments, we will make sure that we can make a profit, and then we will talk about other things." ”
"That's what I think, too." Dad Xiao said.
"But I have time to look at other projects, but I still focus on these projects." Yan Xin said.
"No problem!" Dad Xiao said.
If we do a good job in these projects this year, we will only be able to get a clear result in the second half of next year.
Even if you want to make a new investment, it will have to be a matter of the next year.
For Xiao's father, two years is not a long time.
Yan Xin was able to open this mouth, which made him see the hope of making the company bigger, and his mood was uplifted.
Father Yan and Wu Xiuhong both had a sense of horror when they listened, and some doubted whether they had heard it wrong.
This is not a small number, but a number of hundreds of millions.
That's a scary number.
It sounds like you're listening to a myth.
They never imagined that hundreds of millions of figures could be discussed so easily.
- Has your son grown to this point?
In the following time, Yan Xin also talked to Xiao's father about the problem of talent reserves.
He doesn't doubt Xiao's father's ability, but when he is there, he will only be able to do it for more than ten years at most.
He certainly didn't have much time to spend here.
When Dad Xiao retires, someone has to pick him up.
This requires strengthening the talent pool.
The current sauerkraut processing plant is a grass platform team, and there are no capable people to do it here, mainly relying on a team pulled out by Xiao Dad from elsewhere.
With such a grass platform, it is okay to maintain the operation of the sauerkraut processing plant.
If the scale is expanded in the future, there will be a serious shortage of talent.
After the construction of these agricultural product processing plants this year, they will be put into production next year, and the management is already a problem.
Not to mention the need to build other factories.
Talent pool is a big problem,
Xiao's father assured him: "Don't worry about this, after you mentioned this problem before the Chinese New Year, we have already started to do it." In the first month, dozens of young people were recruited, all of whom had gone to middle school. In a few months, when it comes to the graduation season, we are still preparing to recruit a group of college students, and we must do a good job in talent reserves. ”
Let's take out the "middle school" to talk about things, because most of the former employees in the factory have only studied in primary school, and some have not even studied in primary school.
That's a group of rural workers with an average age of over 50.
In contrast, young people who have gone to middle school can indeed be called talents.
Hearing Xiao's father say that he wanted to recruit college students, Yan Xin couldn't help but ask: "Is the treatment in our factory attractive to college students?" ”
He knows that the starting salary of college students is not very high now, especially from ordinary universities.
However, this is a factory in the countryside, and in the eyes of many people, it is a job with no future, and it is not attractive to pay the same salary.
INTERVIEWER Did you work hard to study in college just to work in the countryside?
"If you recruit locals, you can give them a description of the future development space, and the position arrangement will also arrange management positions such as assistant to the factory director and assistant director, in addition to salary, you can also give a certain degree subsidy, I think, it should be able to attract some people to come." Dad Xiao said.
Not all people like to leave their hometowns and go to the big city, and some people just want to stay local.
The wages are about the same, maybe even a little higher, and they are not so unacceptable in the countryside.
Anyway, there is no need to recruit much, there are more than a dozen people, and they can support this grass platform team.
In this regard, Xiao's father still has a certain degree of confidence.
