You've been reborn and you're going to go farm?

In fact, once the 50 mu (approximately 3.3 hectares) is established, the benefits it can bring to the Agricultural University will go far beyond the simple title of "Agricultural Science and Technology Courtyard".

Once this exemplary model is established, the Agricultural University's technology transfer center will be able to leverage more special project funding, which means that the university's performance, the professional title evaluation of team members, and even the influence of the entire discipline can be improved.

Therefore, even though Jiang Lin was just a college student, Wang Sifu was willing to come and look for him in person.

There are too few "pragmatists" willing to invest real money and resources in modern agriculture.

In many villages today, a lot of people are contracting land under the guise of revitalizing agriculture and establishing demonstration bases. But how many of them genuinely want to cultivate the land well and produce high-quality agricultural products?

Which one of them didn't first fence off the land, then symbolically plant some things on it, and spend their main energy on building connections, gathering materials, and waiting for various agricultural subsidies to come through?

Once the subsidies are received, the crops in the fields are left to fend for themselves, or even abandoned altogether.

Director Wang has seen this model far too many times, and he feels deeply helpless and heartbroken.

But Jiang Lin is different!

He has already grown 50 mu of watermelons with a good reputation, and from the beginning he has been trying to build his own "Qingshan" brand. He has even done a lot of agricultural product traceability that domestic agricultural leaders have not yet started.

He wasn't just playing with concepts, creating hype to deceive policies and then running away; he genuinely wanted to do something meaningful in agriculture.

What Director Wang values ​​is precisely this potential and sincerity in truly wanting to cultivate this talent.

His tone became much more sincere: "Young people like you, with ideas and the drive to act, are rare!"

"Our agricultural university's greatest hope in commercializing research results is to find partners like you, so that our excellent varieties and technologies can truly be implemented in the fields and bear fruit. This would be a win-win situation for both of us!"

"For 50 mu, our agricultural university can provide full support. As for the technical aspects, Professor Lin goes without saying, and we can also coordinate graduate students and experienced personnel to provide on-site guidance at key agricultural stages to ensure that the technical solutions are implemented correctly."

"Secondly, brand and qualifications. As long as the standards are met, you can use a brand like the Agricultural University Cooperation Demonstration Base. The school can issue an authorization document, which will greatly enhance the credibility of your 'Qingshan' brand."

"Also, regarding resources..." Director Wang lowered his voice a little, "Your local city, county, and province all have corresponding subsidies or low-interest loan policies for facility agriculture, specialty orchards, and agricultural technology integration projects. We can assist you with project packaging and material preparation, and use our channels for recommendation and application."

"If we can secure this part, it will greatly alleviate your financial pressure!"

The conditions offered by Wang Sifu were quite attractive.

This means that the Agricultural University is using its technology and brand reputation to support Jianglin's "Qingshan Strawberry" project and provide practical technical and policy resources to help it.

Jiang Lin said gratefully, "Thank you for your kindness, Director Wang."

His tone was serious: "Without a doubt, the support from the Agricultural University is very attractive, and it has given me even greater confidence in doing this project well."

"Let me think about it carefully."

"After all, more than 100 million is a rather concrete figure for a student like me who comes from a rural area."

"Before that, I would like to ask Teacher Lin to take us to see the actual nursery and the more mature greenhouse base."

"I want to experience it for myself; that way I'll feel more confident!"

Director Wang nodded, showing no displeasure whatsoever: "No problem, just stating the facts!"

He turned to Lin Chuan and said, "Then you should go with these two classmates. I have a few meetings to attend later, so I really can't leave."

Jiang Lin laughed and said, "Hey, you go ahead and get busy."

"Hasn't our sincerity been fully conveyed?"

Director Wang shook his head with a chuckle and then laughed, "A little rascal too!"

Director Wang came in a flurry of activity and left in a flurry of activity.

Jiang Lin and Lin Chuan went to the base in cooperation with the Agricultural University, visited the nursery, and also visited the standardized strawberry greenhouses that were already in production.

The person in charge of the greenhouse construction was also invited over.

"If we were to undertake the construction, we would handle everything from the greenhouse structure, frame, and plastic film, to the internal irrigation, temperature control, and even the seedlings."

"We can provide turnkey projects, covering everything. We have a long-term partnership with the Agricultural University, so quality and after-sales maintenance are guaranteed."

After visiting the site, Jiang Lin had a clearer understanding of where the money invested in building the strawberry farm had gone.

As they were leaving, Lin Chuan, who had been relatively silent the whole way, suddenly asked, "Haven't you considered bringing in investment?"

"I think you should talk to Zhao Yu; she would be very willing to do this."

"Making money is profitable. Opening a fruit shop is profitable, and investing in you is also profitable."

Jiang Lin laughed: "Teacher Lin, are you so confident that I can successfully grow these 50 acres of delicate strawberries?"

Lin Chuan paused for a moment, then answered Jiang Lin's question from a rather unconventional perspective: "From my professional standpoint, I might be a bit of an outsider when it comes to your models."

"But as a consumer, I really buy into your 'Qingshan' brand!"

"The data is transparent, the quality is high, and the service is good."

"Since someone like me is willing to spend money, I think there's a high chance this approach will work. At least, I won't lose everything."

Jiang Lin pondered for a moment, then finally smiled faintly and said, "Let me think about it some more."

On the way back, Jiang Lin didn't say anything. Actually, he also wanted to cultivate 50 mu (approximately 3.3 hectares).

It wasn't because of Secretary Li, nor because of external factors like Linchuan or the Agricultural University.

To be honest, with his panel, all he needs is good seedlings. As for the rest, his meticulous management is no less than that of any expert who comes to the site to provide personal guidance!

There's only one reason he wants to cultivate 50 mu (approximately 3.3 hectares): time!

"Qingshan Watermelon" with its traceability QR code will definitely make it famous this September, but at the same time, it also reveals the still novel approach of "quality + story + transparency".

By next year at the latest, imitators will definitely appear, and competition will intensify rapidly.

If he cannot seize this window of opportunity, and use the fastest speed, the highest standards, the strongest resource combination, and more individual products to establish the "Qingshan" brand image and quality barrier...

So when capital comes in next year and starts playing the "premium fruit" and "QR code traceability" games, his first-mover advantage and uniqueness will all be lost, and without a doubt, he will be beaten to a pulp!

This is no joke. He has the advantage of being a first mover, which is why people are willing to accept his simple things.

Because it's novel!

never seen it.

Once money flows in, people will find all sorts of ways to exploit what he has!

And the reason he didn't want to move forward...

Actually, it's quite simple: the shadow of that failed agricultural real estate project.

Jiang Ye looked at his slightly furrowed brows.

She thought for a moment, then took a bank card out of her bag and handed it to Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin snapped out of his daze, looking completely bewildered.

"what?"

Jiang Ye said earnestly, "This contains all the New Year's money I've received since I was a child; it should be a little over 53,000 yuan."

She paused, as if doing a simple math problem: "So now, our shortfall is just over 946,000."
