Winner Takes It All, Resurrection 2009

"I'm rich! Qingyun's money is so easy to cheat!"

"The world is big, but courage is not as important as it is. Follow Qingyun, and you will become rich in one year. In two years, you will be the richest man in the county. The subsidies are good!"

"It's a pity that there are only two families like Yamenkou and Qingyun who are such suckers. If there is another one, we will never be able to eat them all in three lifetimes!"

……

In fact, many times, the losses of Qingyun Agriculture cannot be blamed on Liang Xiaolong and the middle and senior management, because they are not omnipotent and cannot keep an eye on the work of their subordinates all the time.

Many tricks are hidden in dark corners. Unless you experience them personally, you can't detect them at all. Many people don't even dare to imagine what kind of bizarre things the people below can do for money.

After Liang Xiaolong took office, he took many measures to effectively reduce the operating losses of Qingyun Agriculture. However, not only did he not receive any rewards from the company's top management, but he was instead blamed and criticized.

Because the money-making projects in the industrial chain do not have to be in Qingyun Agriculture itself, but through agricultural product transactions, they support many industries such as transportation, processing, distribution, and sales channels.

Due to the controllable and safe product quality and quantity, the group's competitiveness in the catering, retail and online shopping industries has been greatly enhanced, which is an advantage that cannot be bought with any amount of money.

It is no exaggeration to say that the more Qingyun Agriculture loses, the more other related industries earn. This is one of the benefits brought by the success of the ecological industrial chain that Li Zehua has been dreaming of.

But many times, the ideas are beautiful, but the reality is cruel. In actual operations, there will always be people who try every possible means to profit from it, thus turning the originally good policies into a mess.

For example, Qingyun strongly advocates the promotion of high-quality breeding industry. During the process of signing contracts with farmers, due to the uneven development of the natural environment and economic levels across the country, the same policy is being implemented.

We need to make appropriate and subtle adjustments. For example, if there are many large-scale breeders in the local area, we should focus on strengthening epidemic prevention, provide insurance services as a backup, and increase the number of basic scientific research stations in animal husbandry and the ratio of personnel.

To this end, Qingyun has signed long-term cooperation agreements with many provincial agricultural universities and agricultural research institutes across the country, and even moved the experimental sites of agricultural science academies and agricultural universities directly to the fields.

Carry out close observation, improve the scientific research system, upgrade the scientific feeding ratio, and add faster and more scientific fattening methods for cattle, sheep and pigs.

Of course, the most critical thing is to provide a unified purchase contract with a guaranteed price to ensure that farmers can make a profit. When combined with the insurance business, this can be done even if there are large-scale pests and diseases.

It can also minimize losses.

Through the above measures, Qingyun successfully extricated itself from the tedious breeding work and concentrated on doing a supporting job. The company clearly proposed this at the strategic meeting of the decision-making committee.

In the future, Qingyun Agriculture's work in breeding must focus on five major directions: breeding animal cubs, animal vaccine and feed processing, bottom-line procurement and sales channels.

The planting industry is similar, mainly focusing on seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, land contracting and food processing, and subsequent sales channels. As long as the core work is done well, there is nothing to worry about.

Logically, if we focus on scientific research and development and channel construction, and entrust the specific breeding and planting to others under a contract, it is unlikely to cause big trouble, and we can complete the poverty alleviation tasks arranged by the government.

In some remote places, where no one lives, there are many dirty and troublesome things like this, even though there are layers of restrictions and mutual supervision, and sales staff all over the country provide real-time feedback on the real situation.

It is also impossible to stop the continuous rush of people like moths to a flame. It is difficult for grassroots workers to resist the temptation of large subsidies, because they only need to turn a blind eye and they will receive money...

Li Zehua had farmed and raised pigs in his previous life, but his understanding of these things was still stuck in the traditional concept of buying piglets, cutting grass for them, and slowly raising them to make money.

Qingyun Agriculture entered the planting and breeding industries with simple emotions, starting with cotton futures, and took the lead in stabilizing local areas such as the Western Region Province. The most effective means is to increase income for grassroots farmers.

In addition to land transfer and contracting, and unified planting and purchasing, small food processing factories have been opened in many areas to create more jobs and effectively increase the income level of local farmers.

When farmers have money, it in turn stimulates the sales volume of Pinxixi channels, various home appliances, electronic products, small agricultural machinery, and pure electric machinery jointly developed by Sany and Zoomlion.

They have also begun to enter thousands of households, making great contributions to Qingyun Power Technology's technology accumulation and application in the field of pure electric machinery, and also boosting the sales of electric bicycles and electric tricycles.

It also began to grow substantially. The CEO of BYD only regretted that he was too conservative at the beginning. How could he achieve a production capacity of tens of millions of vehicles within five years?
That was all in the past. They had to increase production efforts, otherwise they would not be able to keep up with the surge in sales. At a high-level meeting within BYD, he openly called out the top nine standards.

That is, BYD’s production and sales volume must be equal to the sum of the second to tenth ranked electric vehicle production and sales companies in the world!

Two years ago, similar slogans and plans would only make industry peers laugh, because BYD still has a long way to go before it can become the industry leader.

But in just over two years, relying on the demand created by Qingyun in the takeout and express delivery industry, as well as the increase brought by battery swapping business and rural areas, BYD's annual sales exceeded 800 million vehicles.

Although these include a considerable number of electric tricycles (used for express delivery and short-distance transportation in rural areas), compared to the initial situation where Qingyun had to place an order for 500 vehicles and still had to pay the bill, it was still very embarrassing.

Now the amount is more than ten thousand, and there is even a collective sentiment within BYD to focus on production and sales rather than listing for financing. With so much profit, who would be willing to share it?

However, even in such a prosperous situation, ugly behaviors are also rampant and growing wildly, even to the point of being undisguised and arrogant.

"You can take a photo of a calf from the side, front, back, top, bottom, left, right, front and back, and upload it. With a few dollars' contract from a printing shop, you can defraud 500 yuan from Qingyun.

The piglets are not bad either, just tinker with them and you can get a hundred dollars, it’s like making money without doing anything!”

In some areas, the private hunting of Qingyun agricultural support projects has begun in a big way. At the beginning, it was only a small-scale fight among a few individuals, such as internal staff.

When declaring on the internal app, they would collude with cattle and pig dealers to come up with some tricks, occasionally mixing some false orders into the real transaction process in order to defraud commissions.

However, as Qingyun Group obtained almost inexhaustible financial support through futures trading and Internet finance, the intensity and amount of agricultural subsidies continued to increase.

Also, because agricultural production is different from organized and planned industrial production, even if a large number of grassroots personnel are involved, there is no way to use a fixed template to measure the authenticity and validity of the data.

For example, when subsidizing farmers to raise beef cattle and produce high-quality pork, it is very difficult to effectively count the number of piglets agreed in the contract and provide targeted subsidies and expected purchase and processing.

Registration, taking photos and even assigning a unique QR code number can effectively manage the source, growth and marketability of each livestock. The policy and starting point are all good, but the problem lies in the implementation process.

It is difficult to carry out real-time supervision and follow-up, and grassroots sales staff are tempted by various practical interests and find it difficult to ensure accuracy and fairness. Incidents of false claims, false reporting and concealment occur frequently.

Even if everyone in the Compliance Supervision Department has superhuman powers, they still cannot supervise everything. They can only conduct random inspections and focus on observing areas with abnormal data.

Unfortunately, it was of little use. After tasting the sweetness, things began to get out of control, especially in some remote areas.

It was only later that it became clear that some Qingyun Agricultural workers had begun to blatantly collude with certain local people and began to unscrupulously embezzle fees.

Originally, the Compliance Supervision Department would regularly issue some paid tasks of visiting and investigating to local Pinxixi sales staff, but as the scale of the business grew, the total amount of funds involved increased.

More and more people actively or passively participate in it, until a deformed circle is formed in which you cover for me and I exchange resources and transfer benefits with you.

Under the premise that almost all the staff of grassroots subsidiaries were wiped out, the company's supervision was almost ineffective, and it could no longer obtain the specific situation on the front line, let alone unified management and allocation of resources.

When it comes to planting and breeding, if one is doing it individually, one can only go with the flow. To put it nicely, it means relying on luck for food; to put it bluntly, it means that one has no control over one's fate.

As a leading enterprise, Qingyun must unify and regulate the market after careful consideration and sufficient market research. There must be management and control over the scale and geographical distribution.

For example, if a province sells 20 cattle annually, then on the basis of ensuring price stability and profitability, the number of cattle on hand in the surrounding areas cannot exceed a certain threshold.

Otherwise, large-scale centralized listings are likely to cause the company to suffer greater operating losses, which in turn will reduce the enthusiasm of farmers in the coming year. Therefore, early subsidies, allowing farmers to earn real money and actively complete the number of tasks planned by the company, have become one of the most important means.

When Li Zehua served as the president of Qingyun Agriculture, he had too much work to do and did not have much energy to devote to the management of the agricultural company, so it was basically managed by executives of affiliated companies.

It was not until Liang Xiaolong took office that he began to implement refined management, including sending and appointing new management, formulating more detailed and reasonable management systems, and greatly strengthening control over the grassroots.

Together with Qingyun Great Eastern Insurance, after arduous negotiations, it successfully moved from Yuqing to Xingcheng, obtained a full insurance license through Zhongxin and Dingguo, and then expanded its staff and funds on a large scale.

It gradually gained a firm foothold in auto insurance and personal insurance business, and then entered the rural insurance business market on a large scale in accordance with the company's overall plan.

In response to the two, it seemed that something extraordinary naturally emerged.

For example, there is unprecedented large-scale fraud...

Liang Xiaolong stared at the executive reporting in front of him with a livid face. If looks could kill people, then the person in front of him would have died at least ten thousand times since he entered the door.

Faced with the wrath of his immediate superior, the executive was also afraid, but what he had no choice but to do was to find that there was an extremely large hidden mine buried in the area he had just taken over. Once it exploded, it would be earth-shattering.

He didn't want to die, so he could only bite the bullet and continue: "...Based on the insurance data provided by the insurance company and the data reported by our own people, after comprehensive analysis.

Come to a sensational result, maybe, perhaps, or ~"

The number was so huge that he didn't dare to say more.

"Tell me! Do you still expect to get away with it?"

Liang Xiaolong was almost going crazy, he had thought that the people below would secretly do something, but he never thought they would be so bold and so cruel!
"Even if I'm going to die tomorrow, I have to be clear-headed and handle things well today. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of the chairman's careful training?
Good, this bunch of bastards are already lawless!"

Just the problems that emerged from the subsidiaries in Luyu and other provinces made the boss, who was far away in Frankfurt discussing Pinxixi's IPO financing matters, furious, and he seemed ready to come back to deal with it personally.

I never thought that the losses of hundreds of millions of dollars were nothing compared to the losses in the provinces of Hunan, Guangxi and Guizhou.

The executive was trembling with fear, and could hardly stand. He insisted on finishing his words, trembling, "The total amount of funds involved may be more than 3 million."

"It's over."

Liang Xiaolong felt a black screen before his eyes, and he fell into his office chair in despair, his mind going blank.

The boss asked him to increase subsidies and open up enough consumer markets in rural areas in the shortest possible time, but he didn't let him throw the company's money into the fire!

Regardless of whether the incident happened before or after he took office, he has to bear the blame, because the position of president of Qingyun Agriculture was previously held by the boss himself.

Isn't his so-called direct descendant used to take the blame at critical moments?
It’s funny to say that the instigators didn’t know until their death that they had bribed almost everyone who had access to the truth and worked together to create a subsidy black hole area spanning four provinces and dozens of counties.

However, they forgot to provide some breeding insurance to the pig, cattle and sheep industry chain that they defrauded subsidies from, or maybe they didn't want to let go of even this little money from the beginning.

Liang Xiaolong had just taken office, so he must have a general understanding of the operation of the branches below. Data can sometimes be deceiving, so he entrusted Liu Zijie to send someone to conduct a survey of the areas with the best project performance.

We plan to learn from local advanced experience and then promote it to other regions.

For example, in the border area between Hunan, Guangxi and Guizhou, transportation conditions are inconvenient and there are mountains everywhere, but the local rainfall is sufficient and there is abundant water and grass, which is very convenient for raising pigs, cattle and sheep.

In Li Zehua's hometown, there used to be the largest dairy cow breeding base in the southern region. It is no exaggeration to say that half of the domestic infant formula industry came from this small place.

With such unique advantages and the fact that it is the boss' hometown, there is no reason for the company not to provide large-scale support. With heavy financial support, local large-scale and individual farming have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

As of mid-May 11, there were approximately 40 new cattle, more than 400 million pigs, and hundreds of millions of chickens, ducks, and geese on the Qingyun agricultural subsidy project list alone.

Even if the latter only provides a few yuan subsidy for seedling and fattening of each chicken according to the purchase agreement, it cannot stop farmers' enthusiasm for breeding. After all, there are sales channels and cheap feed.

They originally carried out breeding operations in their spare time during the busy farming season. Now that they have more stable profit motivations and support from both upper and lower policies, they are of course willing to take the initiative to expand the scale of breeding.

It is normal for every household to raise dozens or hundreds of chickens, ducks and geese. It is also convenient for several households to raise a dozen pigs. It is also normal for a village to have dozens or hundreds of cows, because Qingyun also provides stable support for feed.

Many local government offices also took the opportunity to set up industry associations and actively apply for special subsidies and policy support from their superiors, striving to create local characteristic brands and agricultural support industries.

It can be said that everyone's original intention was to get rid of poverty and develop the local economy, but as the investigation by the Compliance Supervision Department and Qingyun Great Eastern Insurance deepened, a lot of abnormal information could no longer be concealed.

For example, data from a cooperation agreement signed in one county showed that an additional 2.5 beef cattle and 30 pigs were raised, and the contract subsidy alone amounted to tens of millions of yuan.

Add to that the amount of feed, animal vaccines and other services that need to be signed for every month and it is not a small amount.

In order to increase the enthusiasm of contracted farmers, Qingyun Agriculture has also specially launched a low-interest loan service for farmers to enjoy from banks or Internet finance.

The company can simply deduct the amount from the payment it makes when purchasing cattle, sheep and pigs. In this way, the company not only enjoys a stable source of product support, but also obtains financial value-added profits.

In theory, external support was almost fully in place, but human greed was underestimated.

From subsidies, to feed support, purchasing channel guarantees, and finally low-interest loans, no one was spared.

Unfortunately, although they can bribe Qingyun’s grassroots salesmen, they cannot evade supervision on data, because the insurance coverage rate of these more than 30 livestock is less than 20%.

Don't ask, the answer is that farmers are reluctant to spend even a little money. They would rather take the risk of losing all their money due to an animal epidemic than pay 60-120 yuan for insurance per cow.

(The actual premium is 300-400 yuan, the state subsidizes 70-80%, and the amount of compensation is assessed based on the weight and health status of the beef cattle. The maximum compensation for death from illness or accidental death is around 1.5 yuan)

This situation is very rare, because fattened cubs are sold at a preferential price, with an additional subsidy of 500 yuan, and farmers have a bottom-line purchase agreement.

As long as you take out insurance, it is almost a sure-win business. Who would insist on paying a few dozen dollars when there is sufficient protection?

There is only one result of the investigation, that is, most of the so-called inventory that actually exists on the books is fictitious.

The reality is that if a cow is not uploaded ten times in the Qingyun app, it will be considered a failure.

This is definitely not something that can be caused by just one individual or a single branch.

"Several hundred million! They really dare to do it!"

What made Liang Xiaolong angry was far more than that. The data that came from Star City Bank immediately alarmed the entire Qingyun top management.

Don't forget that behind the breeding system is a larger-scale financial service. They don't even let go of the 500 yuan subsidy and dozens of yuan insurance. How could they not apply for low-interest loans on a large scale?
A calf is worth several thousand yuan, ten thousand, or even a hundred thousand yuan? (End of this chapter)
