"Reed, I have another idea, maybe we can ~щww~~lā. Are you good at agricultural and sideline products?"
"Although we are not the largest in the United States, we have many farms here, we own fishing boats, and we have our own food brand. The potato chips we produce are the best-selling in the United States."
Reed didn't know why Feng Yu asked this. Agricultural and sideline products must be produced in large quantities to make good profits. Why would Feng Yu want to invest in this
Finance, electronics, automobiles, etc. are all highly profitable. Even retail profits are very high. Why does Feng Yu make agricultural and sideline products
"No, I don't want to invest in your food brands, but in your agricultural and sideline products, such as lobsters, crabs, freshwater fish, etc. These don't seem to be very popular in the United States right now."
Despite what Western food says about how delicious lobster is and how many people love it, in fact, the sales of lobster in the United States are going downhill now.
There are also many freshwater fish in the United States, but Americans don’t eat them at all because freshwater fish have many spines.
Many states in the United States have experienced overruns of crabs and carp, but they don't know how to deal with them. If this were in China, someone would have caught him and eaten it long ago.
Once upon a time, crayfish were also an alien species that invaded China. At that time, they were breeding like crazy, and now they have to be farmed because there is not enough food.
Ralph once told Feng Yu that a small town in the United States used to make money by selling lobsters. But now that the U.S. economy is in decline, the price of lobsters has dropped rapidly, and they still cannot be sold. Americans don’t like eating lobsters that much anymore.
And in that small town, a well-prepared lobster dinner cost less than twenty dollars! It can be seen that the cost of the lobster should be less than half.
Feng Yu felt at that time that if these lobsters were transported back to China, they would definitely make money. Lobster is still a rare good thing in China. Many people think that lobster is a dish worth more than a thousand yuan, which is not affordable for ordinary people.
But actually, this is really cheap.
And even if this is shipped to China by air, the lobster will not be that expensive if shipping costs are included. And if you put an imported shell on it, you can make more money.
Don’t forget, Feng Yu is still a shareholder of Beidacang, and Beidacang is already the largest agricultural and sideline products group company in China and even Asia, and is now working hard to attack the European and American markets. As for the African market, it has already been taken care of.
Beidacang is thinking of ways to introduce foreign delicacies or trade delicacies from various regions. From a place with more, ship to a place with less, and then make a profit on the price difference.
The Chinese people's demand for delicious food is also increasing. Because living conditions have improved, the Chinese people have naturally begun to pay more attention to food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Buy a big house in the city, one with an elevator. When buying a car, it needs to be a respectable car, one that everyone knows about the brand. Clothes should be eye-catching. Naturally, the food must be something that has never been eaten before. It is not only delicious, but also something that others will be amazed by.
Some Western foods have also been introduced to China, and Chinese delicacies have been exported abroad. For example, Beidacang has helped Huaxia snacks reach dozens of countries around the world, among which Shaxian snacks have the widest audience!
There are also various Chinese snacks such as steamed buns, dumplings, candied haws, and roujiamo, which have gained a foothold abroad and even become popular.
Just the price difference between import and export allows Beidacang to make a lot of money, not to mention that many of them are self-operated by Beidacang and the profits are higher.
However, Beidacang now has some trade problems with the United States, because China no longer imports genetically modified food and no longer grows it itself. This makes some of Beidacang's previous American partners very dissatisfied.
But they never thought that Americans don't eat genetically modified foods. They call these crops cash crops or commercial crops, not food crops.
Have you noticed that there is no genetically modified wheat in the world? Is it because it cannot be developed? Absolutely not!
Some people speculate that because wheat is the main food for Westerners, they do not study it and do not let others study it. Anyone who studies it is the public enemy of everyone.
But corn, soybeans, etc. don't matter. Even rice is genetically modified and has a higher yield than China's hybrid rice.
China doesn’t buy it, and there are many poor countries in Africa and Asia, and they are short of food.
Although it is currently impossible to prove that genetically modified foods are completely safe, it is also not proven that they are completely unsafe, so they are still purchased and grown in many countries.
However, China has begun to reject genetically modified foods, which has also made many other countries wary of this. The agriculture of the United States has also been greatly affected by this.
If Peking University is willing to import other agricultural and sideline products at this time, it will still be of great help to American agriculture.
The United States is a big country in science and technology, but it is also a big agricultural country. There are many large farms in the United States. After retirement, many businessmen and athletes will buy a farm and enjoy pastoral life.
"Feng, are you saying that you want to import a large amount of agricultural and sideline products from our country?"
"Not all, but some. What we import depends on us, but it will definitely bring you a lot of profits and increase the number of jobs."
Let the United States become China's planting and breeding base, I still think it's great when I think about it.
However, in the future, China should still strive to be self-sufficient. These agricultural and sideline products can be produced in the United States, and China should be able to produce them due to its geographical conditions. The two sides are very similar in latitude.
"Feng, how much do you estimate the annual trade volume will be? How many jobs will it create?" Reed asked in detail.
"There is a trade volume of more than one billion US dollars every year. It can only be more, not less. It can at least solve the employment problem of tens of thousands of people. Is this a small amount?"
Tens of thousands of people are certainly not many compared to the United States as a country, but compared to the number of unemployed people in the United States, the ratio is not low. This business can be negotiated.
The reason why a large consortium is a large consortium is that in addition to its main business, the industries it invests in almost all walks of life, ensuring that any industry prospers and they can share some profits. If any industry declines, they will not be hit hard.
"Feng, this is too little. If you can allow China to import our seeds or grain again, then the company here can count you some shares."
Feng Yu raised his chin: "Is your grain company very profitable?"
The implication is that Feng Yu didn't even notice these profits. Doesn't his main industry bring him billions of profits every year
"Also, I have something else to do next, so just keep talking with Li Zeju and Kameda Masao. This little business has taken me so long."
Reid showed a wry smile. This is a business worth billions or even tens of billions of dollars. In Feng Yu's words, it turned out to be a small business that delays things. Isn't it amazing how rich the world is
Well, World Rich is really amazing.
