1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 219 Dimensionality Reduction
Kowloon Hotel, third floor, Momobaitou manager's office.

As the company's vice president, Feng Yuan has come to work for at least half an afternoon almost every day in the past month.

This is not because he finally realized that he was the top leader of Momo Baitou;
It's not because this manager's office is much larger and more luxuriously furnished than his own vice president's office.

The reason why he has been running so frequently during this period is that the recent actions are basically based on Momo Baitou. Now that the company's management rules have been gradually standardized, every expenditure of funds exceeding 50 yuan requires his signature and confirmation;

Secondly, during this period of time, he discovered two good talents here.

To be precise, it is a seedling with similar characteristics to Yang Mo in the business direction;
The idea of ​​killing two birds with one stone by intervening in and promoting Linyi County's vegetable basket project was the idea they came up with... Of course, it was just an idea. The specific angles of approach, details and scales could only be perfected by old foxes like Feng Yuan and Vice President Tang.

Therefore, out of a subtle psychological reason, Feng Yuan not only ran to Momobaitou very diligently during this period, but also, as long as there was time left after finishing his work, he would definitely call the two promising talents who had entered his sight to his office to have a chat.

………………

"Xiao Li, Xiao Zhang, you have read the information... Tell me what you think?"

Feng Yuan, holding a thermos, smiled and made two cups of tea for the two young men in front of him, his tone casual and with a hint of kindness.

Even though it was not the first time they were treated like this, Li Ming and Zhang Bo were flattered and stood up from the sofa, bent over and stretched out their right hands to lightly support their cups, with a hint of helplessness and gratitude on their young faces.

To be fair, although Feng Yuan, who was in charge of the relationship between workers and peasants, did not have strong ability at work and his personal charm was not unique, he was still okay in terms of dealing with people. As long as the need arose, he had basic courage... In just one month, Li Ming and Zhang Bo could feel that this senior leader was completely different from the middle and grassroots cadres such as Liu Jiyu whom they came into contact with on a daily basis.

Therefore, it is difficult for the two rookies who are still suffering in the so-called corporate management research group to understand why Vice President Feng, who is waiting in anticipation, has shown such great sincerity, but the guy named Yang Mo is still indifferent and even resisting stubbornly.

However, they may not have known much about the young man who was said to be about the same age as them before, but after just one month of fighting, they had to admit that this guy named Yang Mo did have the capital to be arrogant.

Li Ming fell back on the sofa with a bitter expression. "It took only twelve days to build a so-called 50-acre breeding facility in a semi-abandoned warehouse. Then, with the help of Mo Mo Bai Zha's influence, 870 million chicks were booked in less than ten days. Even if we only count the chick buyers who are now stranded in the Laoliu Hatchery, the subsequent orders they will receive will definitely not be less than 500 million... This is at least an order for 1300 million chicks, which is enough for them to find a sufficient reason to start the second phase of the project immediately, and then transfer all the remaining 1500 million funds in Qingfeng Food's account to it!"

Zhang Bo pounded his left hand fiercely: "This is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is that even if we only consider the driving effect of these 1300 million chicks, their revenue from feed and vaccines will reach an extremely terrifying figure!"

"Don't forget that 817 broilers grow very fast and can be slaughtered in two months. Even if only half of the buyers stop importing and raising 817 broilers for various reasons, the base of more than 600 million multiplied by the breeding frequency of five batches per year will still be 5 million broilers!"

"But the question is, looking at the situation, is it possible that only 1300 million chicks will be sold in the first wave? Obviously not!"

"There's an article about Mo Mo's rise to fame that's fooling everyone. Is it possible that half of the buyers will leave? Obviously, that's not likely!"

Scratching his head in annoyance, Zhang Bo said with frustration, "Mr. Feng had planned everything well before. Since Qingfeng Food has expanded new supply channels and blocking the broiler raw materials is not feasible, we might as well add fuel to the fire and speed up the consumption of raw materials at Momo Baizha. Then, we will take advantage of their current high cost of raw material acquisition to quickly consume the funds in their account. "

"But I didn't expect that before we could even start to add fuel to the fire, they would make such a big business out of breeding chicks... With such a large amount of funds coming back, and a continuous flow of funds, how could they be afraid of our methods?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became depressing.

During this period of time, the only two main tasks of Vice President Feng were to coerce the infrastructure construction of vegetable greenhouses in Linyi County and to hunt down and intercept Yang Mo's project, which was related to Yang Mo's career, so as to make him surrender.

The two seem to be going east and west respectively and have nothing to do with each other, but in fact they are a whole. The essence is to use coercion and inducement to make Yang Mo stand on the side of Vice President Feng, and if they fail, the consequences will be extremely serious.

To be honest, even with Vice President Feng personally involved, fighting against a figure like Yang Mo still made them feel powerless and anxious.

This guy doesn't play by the rules at all, and doesn't respond to your moves according to the route you deduced before. Not only have the countless plans they worked so hard to make become waste paper, but the emergence of this "Laoliu Chicken Breeding Institute" has made their original strategy direction hang a "blocked road" sign.

Faced with such a strategic failure, even an old fox like Vice President Feng was desperate, let alone two rookies who had just entered the society?

………………

Looking at Li Ming and Zhang Bo staring at the teacups anxiously and blankly, Feng Yuan sighed silently, but without any intention of blaming them.

The cunning and sinisterness of that little fox Yang Mo was beyond his imagination.

No one would have thought that the seemingly inconspicuous scientific research institute set up by the Fifth Farm was actually a chess piece that guy had laid long ago; and no one would have thought that after the thing and the Silent Hundred Bombs catalyzed each other, it would actually produce the chemical result of 1+1=11.

That rascal……

Are you really only 24 years old?

Feng Yuan felt a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth.

After all, I was too confident and acted too hastily at the beginning!
Feng Yuan put down the teacup gently, a smile appeared on his face, and he was just thinking about comforting the two little guys who had behaved very well in his opinion.
Li Ming suddenly raised his head, with a dangerous light in his eyes: "Mr. Feng, I just thought about it and came up with an idea that is not very mature."

Hearing this, Feng Yuan looked at him with some surprise, and then gave him an encouraging look: "Xiao Li, just speak freely."

Encouraged, Li Ming took a deep breath and adjusted his black-framed glasses: "Although the current situation shows that raw materials and funds can no longer be called the Achilles' heel of Mo Mo Bai Zha... but after thinking about it, I still think that under the premise of not violating the rules, only these two points are the key points that we can attack!"

Hearing this somewhat awkward and contradictory sentence, Feng Yuan showed a thoughtful look and his tone became more serious: "Tell me about it?"

Li Ming said nervously, "Although it sounds like nonsense, I still insist that, just like the results of our initial investigation and analysis, under the existing regulatory framework, the only Achilles' heel of the Momo Baizha project, which already has considerable social influence, is its supply of raw materials... The reason why we went to so much trouble to strangle them in terms of funding was, in the final analysis, to strangle their raw materials."

At this point, Li Ming seemed to be trying to cheer himself up by repeating and sorting out his previous conclusions: "The reason why Momo Baizha set the price so low is not only to seize the market faster, but also because Yang Mo wants to maintain his absolute control over this project through the shockingly low gross profit margin... Although I don't know how many traps he has buried in each link of this project, I can guarantee that if anyone dares to take this project into his own hands, he will definitely die an ugly death!"

"But the problem is that although Momo Baizha's extremely low gross profit margin can deter others from taking this project away from Yang Mo, the key point is also obvious!"

Li Ming pinched his palms out of habit, and his tone became more and more certain: "Since Momo Baizha has already gained considerable fame, it is not afraid of lack of customers... Unless everyone loses interest in meat overnight, when it comes to fried skewers or chicken chops, they will always be the first choice;"

"Since they already have a virtuous cycle system, Momo Baizha is not afraid of a shortage of funds. They have a master like Yang Mo, who can use a variety of means to get money. Even without Yang Mo, they can still make a lot of money by expanding the scale of franchisees... The reason they didn't do this before was because Yang Mo didn't want to do it."

"But the seemingly flourishing Silent Hundred Bombing Project has a weakness that may not seem important at first glance, but is actually very fatal... They dare not raise the price at will!"

Li Ming raised his lips slightly, and began to look more confident: "On the one hand, once the price is adjusted, those followers will squeeze out the market that originally belonged to us."

"On the one hand, it's because they've lost their raw material cost advantage, but on the other hand, people who are used to the price of 1.5 yuan per serving of chicken fillet will get upset once they see them raise the price, and then turn to other followers in anger... Believe me, even if the prices of the two are similar, there will still be many people who will do this!" "Taking advantage of small bargains is a common problem among Chinese people, and the phenomenon of long-term customers being the mainstay has been everywhere since ancient times. Once the small bargains they are accustomed to are no longer available, many of them will not try to understand the reasons, but will only feel angry, and even think they have been deceived, and thus hate the other party... As the saying goes, 'A thief is the one who takes advantage of others', human nature has always been like this, without exception!"

Hiding the sarcasm on his lips, Li Ming's tone became serious: "But this is not the main reason. After all, with Yang Mo's ability, I think he has a way to recover this part of the loss and market from other supporting projects... For example, Momo Baichao and this newly built incubator. These projects are all interconnected systems. It is normal for him to rob Peter to pay Paul."

"The core reason why Momo Baizha dares not adjust the price at will..."

"Once the price goes up, the gross profit margin of this project will go up. If Yang Mo can maintain the revenue capacity of the entire system through other derivative projects, the barriers he has worked so hard to build will vanish overnight... Apart from anything else, as long as the combined gross profit margin of the Mo Mo series of projects can exceed 25%, the number of people in the company who are interested and confident in taking over the projects will increase sharply. Yang Mo is, after all, only a deputy section-level cadre. Even with Director Zhang, he is not sure of maintaining the dominance of these projects."

"So... a low-cost raw material channel that can guarantee large-scale and stable supply is the most important thing for Yang Mo... In fact, this is why he has been trying his best to get the joint breeding project started in the past six months, and even risked being caught by others to distribute nearly half of the broiler production capacity to several neighboring villages!"

At this point, Li Ming heaved a sigh of relief: "After thinking it over, I think there is nothing wrong with the strategy we decided on at the beginning. The only problem is that we underestimated Yang Mo's ability to deal with it... To be honest, this man, with his identity as a commoner, was able to withstand all our methods. Yang Mo is indeed a talent that Vice President Feng values!"

After hearing these words which actually had no substantive effect, Feng Yuan felt inexplicably much better. Although they were useless, at least they proved that the general direction he had chosen was correct, right?
Even if we fail in the end, it is because the enemy is too cunning. Although it cannot be said to be "not our fault", at least we can save some face in our hearts, right?
Just when he was about to comfort the two young men and tell them that in his heart, they were just as talented as Yang Mo, he suddenly heard Li Ming's tone become a little cold.

"Indeed, I admit that if we were competing in the same dimension, Yang Mo would indeed be an extremely troublesome, even hopeless opponent."

"but……"

"The bad thing is that he is just a commoner, but he is very proud and never willing to bow to others and rely on their resources and strength!"

"So...if we really want to get serious about the raw materials and force him to surrender, there is a way!"

!!! ???

Feng Yuan was stunned, and then he felt his breathing quicken. He managed to suppress the huge fluctuations in his heart, and then asked in a deep voice: "Xiao Li, what good idea did you come up with?"

Li Ming pinched his fingers, a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes, but his tone was calm: "Although we only fought against each other for a month, I admit that Zhang Bo and I did learn a lot from Yang Mo."

"The most important point is... we not only understand the importance of giving full play to our own advantages, but also understand that some things do not necessarily need to be confronted head-on!"

Its own advantages?
Is there no need to confront head-on?
Feng Yuan frowned, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing this, Li Ming glanced at Zhang Bo who was still a little confused, and took a deep breath: "Yang Mo is just a deputy section cadre with no real job. Without joining Mr. Wang and you, he has no ability to mobilize resources except his own ability... Director Zhang's foundation is shallow, and he can't give him much support in this regard. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is fighting alone now;"

"And Mr. Feng, you are the vice president of the company in charge of the relationship between workers and farmers. From the competent units and institutions to the sister companies in the southwest, and even within the company, you have countless resources that can be mobilized and used... In terms of resources, you and Yang Mo are not on the same level at all!"

Hearing Li Ming talking about this in a clichéd way, Feng Yuan felt disappointed, but shook his head: "Xiao Li, although you and Xiao Zhang are smart, you are still young after all, and you don't understand some things very well... Things like resource mobilization are not something that can be done by just saying hello as you think;"

"In fact, although Yang Mo is just a deputy section-level cadre without a real job, even if he doesn't seek help from Wang Yinuo and Director Mu, the social resources he can mobilize in Linyi County and parts of Dezhou through his own skills and means cannot be underestimated... It's just that he can only gradually build and mobilize resource networks through project cooperation, and can't communicate directly like me, so his efficiency is much worse."

Hearing the deep fear of the young man Yang Mo in the words of Vice President Feng, Li Ming felt a complex jealousy and yearning in his heart, but in the end he just shook his head: "Boss Feng, I think you misunderstood me."

Misunderstood?
Feng Yuan glanced at the burly young man with some surprise, his eyes full of questions.

Li Ming's expression was relatively calm: "Mr. Feng, what I mean is that the social resources you can mobilize are far more complex and at a higher level than those on Yang Mo's side. This is an indisputable fact;"

"Even if it is as you said, the social resources that Yang Mo can mobilize cannot be underestimated, but I think it is nothing more than the three major areas of business, some regional authorities, and local enterprises... Although it is already very powerful, it has limitations after all."

"So...I've just been thinking about a question;"

"We used our social resources to suppress Yang Mo before, and this idea was not wrong;"

"But, is there something wrong with the angle and link of our intervention?"

Um? ?

Feng Yuan pondered for a moment, and asked uncertainly, "Xiao Li, what you mean is... we shouldn't focus on commerce, competent authorities, and local enterprises. After all, Yang Mo has his own resources in these areas. We can't form an absolute advantage, so naturally we can't hold his weak spot?"

Li Ming nodded: "That's about what I mean. To untie the bell, you must find the person who tied it. Since Yang Mo is now relying on the various methods derived from the 817 broiler chicken to resolve our offensive... then why not go straight to the heart of the matter and make a fuss about the 817 broiler chicken?"

"Making a fuss about the 817 broiler chicken... Xiao Li, what do you mean?"

A flash of inspiration came into Feng Yuan's mind, as if he had grasped something, but at the same time, he hadn't.

Li Ming laughed: "Mr. Feng, I heard that... not only do you have some connections with the Qilu Academy of Agricultural Sciences, but you are also quite familiar with other academic institutions in Qilu?"

This is actually a very euphemistic statement. As the vice president of a petroleum company, how could Feng Yuan be familiar with academic institutions outside the petrochemical field?
But all roads lead to Rome. Feng Yuan's identity and the nature of his job are there. Even if he is not very familiar with those academic institutions, there are still ways to get familiar with them.

Feng Yuan finally understood something and looked at him in surprise: "Xiao Li, are you planning to...?"

Li Ming looked at him with a heavy face: "Mr. Feng, as a work priority, I have been studying the 817 broiler project for more than a week, and even consulted and studied a lot of technical information and laws and regulations on animal husbandry;"

"Originally, I was inspired by the Laoliu Chicken Hatchery, and thought that by understanding the technical characteristics of the 817 broiler, I could see if I could deduce the follow-up measures that Yang Mo might arrange. But after I read all the relevant information, I found that the 817 broiler had a very serious non-technical problem!"

"If we can jump out of our current inertial thinking, mobilize resources from a higher dimension, and then use the serious non-technical problem of 817 broiler chickens as a breakthrough point, we can completely defeat Yang Mo with one blow... It is not impossible!"

817 Is there a very serious problem with broiler chickens?
Or is it a non-technical question?

what is that! ?

and also……

Higher dimensions?
Those academic institutions?

Could it be... ?
Thinking that it was possible to completely knock Yang Mo down with one blow, and then have him run to him and obey his orders, Feng Yuan's eyes sparkled with two rays of light...
