Agricultural giant since 1983

Chapter 263

When he arrived at the hotel, as soon as he entered the private room, Li Lei looked at the seat above him, and the person sitting there was indeed the one he had guessed in advance, "Mr. Huang, long time no see!"

"Xiao Li's business is getting bigger and bigger now. It seems that the mainland is indeed a fertile land!" Huang Hongnian, a direct descendant of the Indonesian Huang family, got up and welcomed Li Lei to sit next to him. It's been almost ten years, and I have hardly moved in the past ten years, but Xiao Li has become more and more developed!"

"Young Master Huang, you are joking. How dare I compare with you in such a small scene! Now who doesn't know that Zhongce is in full swing in Xiangjiang!" Li Lei sat down politely. Since he went to Xiangjiang for the first time, the two of them really I haven't seen him again. When the food factory built a new instant noodle production line, he bought olive oil from Huang Hongnian. However, they communicated with each other on the phone, and there was no face-to-face meeting.

Zhongce is a company newly established by Huang Hongnian in Xiangjiang last year. Because of many friends, Zhongce has attracted the attention of many investors at home and abroad as soon as it was established. They all want to use Huang Hongnian's contacts to enter the mainland market, so Zhongce really deserves the evaluation of the four words "successful in the sky!"
They ate and drank while chatting, and after talking about household chores for a while, the three of them turned the topic to business in unison. Huang Hongnian also talked about the reasons why he planned to enter the mainland market, "First of all, it must be Deng Gong's southern tour. Last year There was so much competition in the newspapers, I couldn’t help but feel a little worried, and since the article "Eastern Wind Comes Full of Spring" was published, my old classmates and friends kept inviting me to visit the mainland!"

"The other thing is the cooperation between Zhengda and Hangzhou Qingchunbao! That Mr. Feng is indeed a talent, and Qingchunbao is also a good company. The cooperation between the two of you can be described as a perfect match! I also hope to meet several Qingchunbao in the mainland. enterprise!"

Needless to say the first reason, the second needs to be explained carefully. Hangzhou Qingchunbao is a state-owned Chinese medicine enterprise. , the factory director Feng Gensheng Li Lei also met. In 1972, he received the award of outstanding entrepreneur together with him. The second Chinese medicine factory also developed rapidly under his leadership. It has changed from a small Chinese medicine factory to a well-known name in East China. The highest and most profitable pharmaceutical company.

But no matter how good the enterprise is, it belongs to the state. Feng Gensheng is 59 years old this year. According to the normal situation, he will have to retire next year; Feng Gensheng, who has single-handedly expanded the No. [-] Chinese Medicine Factory, is naturally unwilling, so he thought of a way, which is to introduce foreign capital. , turning the state-owned enterprise into a joint venture, so that Feng Gensheng can continue to serve as the head of the second Chinese medicine factory without being restricted by the retirement age.

After some operations, Chia Tai Group obtained the controlling stake in the No. 20 Chinese Medicine Factory at a low price based on net assets, and Chia Tai also made a promise to Feng Gensheng that he could do it on the day he no longer wanted to do it, and the Hangzhou No. [-] Chinese Medicine Factory Changed its name to Zhengda Qingchunbao Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Feng Gensheng became the general manager, and then sat in this position for more than [-] years until his death.

Zhengda fulfilled its original promise and did not change his position. Feng Gensheng also lived up to the trust of Zhengda, and developed Qingchunbao into one of the top [-] taxpayers in China, and once ranked first among Chinese medicine manufacturers in the country.

Most of Huang Hongnian's words were polite, but this incident also caught the eyes of many heads of state-owned enterprises. They are also facing the same situation as Feng Gensheng. If they are stronger, a document from the superior can still let them go; but if they can introduce foreign capital, not only can they get rid of their mother-in-law, but they can also get rich returns.

So in the following days, the introduction of foreign capital to change the nature of the enterprise has become the common choice of many state-owned enterprise helmsman. They continue to negotiate with real or fake foreign businessmen, and then sell the enterprise at an extremely low price, and finally achieve a gorgeous transformation. , From the leadership of state-owned enterprises to the executives of foreign-funded enterprises.

Huang Hongnian also keenly grasped this opportunity, coupled with the invitation of old classmates and friends, he set off for the mainland, ready to push a small trolley and start shopping; to his surprise, he originally only planned to buy a small He went back with a cart of goods, but the mainland gave him a container of gifts.

In the next year, no matter which city he went to, the local leaders would invite him to invest. Huang Hongnian's Zhongce Group started a big sweep. They spent 4.52 million US dollars to buy 196 state-owned enterprises, and then successively acquired 100 Although some contracts were suspended due to the intervention of the Chinese government, Zhongce still built a huge corporate empire in a short period of time.

Most of these mergers and acquisitions ended in failure, but Huang Hongnian did not lose money. He used these mergers and acquisitions as a gimmick to push up the stock price of the high strategy, and made a lot of money in the financial market. Unfortunately, most of the companies that were acquired ended up losing money. It became a chicken feather.

"If Mr. Huang is going to visit the Central Plains Province, you must tell me in advance that I will be the host. Thank you Mr. Huang for taking care of me over the years!" Li Leike said politely, although he regretted the ending of those enterprises, But it can't be all Huang Hongnian's fault. Even if there is no Mr. Huang, Mr. Lan and Mr. Lu are eager to untie the state-owned enterprises. There are too many.

And the local government may not be unaware that they have lost money by selling the company. However, just like Chen Guang, they are powerless to change the reality that these state-owned enterprises are declining day by day. They may be scolded by their superiors, but selling to foreign companies is safe. Now the country is too eager for foreign capital. Not only will the introduction of foreign capital not be harsh, but it will also be commended and rewarded. That's why they are so eager to sell the company to Huang Hongnian and the others.

"Must be sure!" After drinking a few more glasses, Huang Hongnian talked about several projects he had been in contact with recently, one of which attracted Li Lei's attention. Now the king of the instant noodle field - Huafeng Instant Noodle Factory is currently undergoing restructuring, and the local The government also invited Huang Hongnian to participate in this restructuring. In fact, it wanted Huang Hongnian to buy the Huafeng factory.

In 1958, Momofuku Ando, ​​a Japanese businessman, invented instant noodles and renamed the company he controlled as Nissin Foods, becoming the overlord in the field of instant noodles.

In the 60s, domestic food companies also began to try to produce instant noodles. The earliest was BJ Food Factory, but because the production technology was not good enough, the instant noodles they fried with duck oil always had a strange smell, which disappeared before it went on the market; until 1970, he used to work The former Shanghai Yimin Food Factory successfully produced the first batch of instant noodles in China by using the high-pressure steamed noodle frying process, which opened the era of standardized instant noodle production in my country.

After the reform and opening up, all parts of the country began to import instant noodle production lines from Japan, and Guangdong was no exception; in 1984, the Guangdong Agricultural Reclamation Office introduced a production line, which was originally planned for the Zhuhai farm, but the Zhuhai farm did not want it, because at that time it was in an era of scarcity of materials, and the farm As long as the products are produced, they will not worry about selling them. They have never thought about developing new products.

The leaders of Pingsha Overseas Chinese Farm, another farm in Zhuhai, did not see it that way. After hearing the news, they immediately won over the production line and handed it over to Xiong Yiwu, the head of the farm life service station. Xiong Yiwu immediately led the staff to learn how to operate the production line, and based The local people's preference has developed the "Huafeng Brand Sanxian Yimian" in a boxy yellow plastic package!
The name "San Xian Yi Mian" is also very particular. It is said that Yi Bingshou, a great calligrapher in the Qing Dynasty, held a birthday banquet. The cook in the mansion mistakenly put the noodles into the pot for deep frying. He had no choice but to make the mistake and cook the fried noodles again. , then topped with chicken, seafood and other stewed broth, the guests are full of praise after eating, and this kind of noodles is called Yi noodles.

Huafeng brand Sanxian Yimian is very similar to Yimian in recipe and taste, so Xiong Yiwu used this name. They use pork bones, seafood, and chicken to boil the seasoning packs, bringing consumers the most delicious food at the lowest cost. With a rich taste experience, it soon became the overlord in the field of instant noodles.

Although the instant noodle industry began to expand in a disorderly way, all parts of the country are introducing production, building new factories, and withdrawing different brands of instant noodles, but except for a few brands such as Huinong's Baixiang, other brands are often short-lived and will not flourish. After a while, everyone will disappear.

The dominance of Huafeng instant noodles is still unshakable. The yellow-packed Sanxianyi noodles are still the first choice for many people to buy instant noodles. There is a long line of trucks at the gate of Huafeng factory every day, even if the first payment is later None of the wholesalers had any objection, because Huafeng's instant noodles were really easy to sell, while other brands of instant noodles could be sold first and then paid for later.
Let's put it this way, Huafeng's position in the field of instant noodles today is even higher than that of Master Kong in the future. At one time, its production and sales accounted for more than [-]% of the country's total, and it paid tens of millions of profits and taxes to the country every year. Enterprises are willing to take it out, which shows their desire for foreign capital.

"Huafeng and Mr. Huang are indeed a match made in heaven. Huafeng has a brand, a reputation, and a professional team. Mr. Huang also controls the palm oil industry. The cooperation between the two of you can reduce the cost a lot. My Bai Xiang will have a hard time in the future!" Li Lei began to test.

"This company is really good!" Huang Hongnian's reaction was relatively flat. First of all, he didn't plan to start a business. Although the Huafeng factory is good, the price is too high, and for Xiangjiang people, the reputation of Huafeng factory is meaningless , They have never heard of it at all. Instead of spending a lot of money to buy the Huafeng factory, it is better to spend less money to buy a few more companies, which can also push up the stock price of Zhongce.

Secondly, although he has helped Li Lei contact palm oil, he has not actually been involved in the palm oil industry of the Huang family. This business is under the responsibility of other Huang family children. It's just clothes, he doesn't get much benefit.

"Wow, Mr. Huang is not interested in such a good company. It seems that Mr. Huang has a big plan!" Seeing his reaction, Li Lei was secretly happy. Since Huang Hongnian has no interest in Huafeng, can he take the opportunity to take Huafeng? Feng took it?

Thinking this way in his heart, his face remained calm. After all, Xie Liren was still there. Zhengda, like Huinong, has food companies under its banner. It's hard to be too competitive.

So next, Li Lei didn't mention Huafeng, but chatted with Huang Hongnian about some interesting things about the places he stayed in China.

This little episode made Li Lei cancel his plan to go home immediately. He continued to stay in the special zone, paying attention to Huang Hongnian's movements. Huang Hongnian was really busy. He went to see this leader today, and had dinner with another leader tomorrow. Focus is everywhere.

When these leaders meet with Huang Hongnian, they often bring their local business rosters with them. As long as Huang Hongnian is interested, they can sell them immediately!Prices and preferential policies are not a problem; these treatments make Li Lei envious, and it would be great if his Huinong had half of them.

No wonder so many business owners have chosen to immigrate, because it is convenient to get away if something happens, and secondly, the differentiated treatment between domestic and foreign-funded enterprises is also a very important reason.

Just imagine, if you use your domestic status to talk to people, they will ignore you; if you turn around and apply for foreign nationality, you will immediately become the guest of the leader. How many people can resist this temptation?

On this day, Li Lei and Huang Hongnian met again on the golf course. Li Lei found out in advance that Huang Hongnian was coming to relax, so he rushed to the golf course ahead of him. Huang Hongnian naturally wanted to say hello to the acquaintances, so they played together.

Li Lei also did not talk about business matters throughout the whole process. Huang Hongnian was very happy. He was very tired from talking about business recently. He just wanted to come to rest today, so he took the initiative to invite Li Lei to dinner after playing.

At the dinner table, Huang Hongnian recalled the scene when the two met in Xiangjiang in [-], "I remember that you were very optimistic about the price of palm oil in Southeast Asia. I didn't believe it, so I made a bet with you! In the end I lost , promise to help you do something."

Li Lei was worried about how to speak, but Huang Hongnian didn't expect to bring it up, so he immediately took it up, "Actually, I really need Mr. Huang's help recently!"

"Oh? What is it? Increase the supply of palm oil, or lower the supply price?" Huang Hongnian asked.

"Not at all! Didn't Mr. Huang mention the Huafeng factory last time? I want to ask Mr. Huang to help me buy the Huafeng factory!" If this is done, Master Kong will probably have nothing to do in the future.

"The Huafeng factory is indeed a high-quality asset, but the acquisition cost is too high, so it's not worth it for me!" Huang Hongnian shook his head.

　Two updates today, make up one chapter for debts, and strive for two updates tomorrow, but the update time will be later.
