When Qi Ying arrived, it also announced the start of Wu Xiaowei's birthday party.
There were six dishes and one soup, including fish, meat, noodles, steamed buns, and a few pork elbows in braised sauce from Tianfuhao.
After Wu Renpin invited everyone to start eating, he picked up a pork elbow and put it in his bowl. Then he took a steamed bun, broke it in two, rubbed the broken end on the pork elbow, and took a bite, eating a quarter of the steamed bun.
Instantly, an expression of satisfaction appeared on Wu Renpin's face.
"Nan Yi, you really should bring Ruoyin here. The last time I saw her was in 1983. It's been five years." Wu Meifeng suddenly said.
Liu Zhen said: "Sister-in-law, Ruoyin doesn't have time, she is in Xiangkeng."
"What a pity. Will you be back for the New Year?"
It seems that Wu Meifeng's feelings towards Nan Ruoyin have not changed, and she still wants Nan Ruoyin to be her daughter-in-law.
"It's hard to say. I might not be able to come back. I deal with foreigners a lot now. They don't celebrate New Year, but Christmas. If you want to make money from them, you have to accommodate their schedule. I may not be able to come back. Ruoyin might spend the New Year with me abroad. Sister-in-law, aren't you going with Lao Wu?"
"I can't go. I have to stay and take care of Xiaowei. He's in his third year of high school, so I won't let him transfer to another school."
"It won't be good. The education level in Beijing is definitely higher than that in Fengtian."
Nan Yi deliberately changed the subject because he didn't want to talk about Nan Ruoyin. There was no way Wu Xiaowei could transfer schools at this time. The pros and cons were obvious, so Wu Meifeng naturally had to stay.
After Nan Ruoyin's episode, everyone began to reminisce about the past. Naturally, the central topic of discussion was Kyoto University. After all, this was the foundation for everyone to come together, and only by consolidating it could they continue to build the wall upwards.
At the end, Nan Yi's car first took Liu Zhen and her son back to the old villa, then came back to take Qi Ying and her son to the guesthouse, and finally picked up Nan Yi and Lai Biao.
"As we get older, relationships are no longer pure." Lai Biao sighed on the way.
"Look at what you said. Old Wu and Qi Ying are several years older than us. It's not an exaggeration to say that they are two generations apart. If you don't get married, their grandchildren will be older than your son."
"I'm not in a hurry to get married. I'll put it off for as long as I can. I just got a new girlfriend last month."
"oh."
"Don't you want to express your opinion?"
"What's there to say? My crotch is full of shit."
Regarding women, Nan Yi believes that he has no right to say anything about anyone else. How can he have the right to talk nonsense if he himself is not upright?
"Should I introduce you to him?"
"Let's stop. There's no benefit in getting to know each other. You must be up to something bad and want me to clean up your mess."
"Haha." Lai Biao smiled and said, "You have experience, no kidding, you really need to meet my girl, she wants to go into the adult entertainment industry."
"What's going on?" Nan Yi asked in surprise, "You're still helping others, but you're being held hostage?"
"I guess so. For the time being, I really don't want to let go."
"You have to think it through. You are different from me. Be careful not to play with fire and get burned."
"It's not that exaggerated. I know the importance of this matter. I only gave her the capital and didn't intend to give her any resources. That's why I wanted to ask you to give her some advice. When it comes to doing business, I've never seen anyone more capable than you."
"Keep shooting. If you like me, I'll help you."
"Bullshit, I'll ask her to come see you tomorrow?" Lai Biao said bluntly.
"No hurry, let me ask you, what does your boyfriend do?"
“I’m still a college student.”
"Economics?"
"Performance."
"Fuck, you think I'm a kindergarten teacher, how dare you look down on me? You dare to send a student who has never done business to me? Do you know that when my subordinates go to invest in small countries, the head of state has to pick them up in person at the airport."
"You can do what you can." Lai Biao spat, and then said: "It seems inappropriate to meet you. Your level is too high, and she may not be able to grasp what you say. Send one of your subordinates to meet her and let her learn from him."
"Give me the number. The right person is not in Beijing at the moment. I'll have him call your honey when he comes back. You have nothing better to do than start a business. Why don't you buy some clothes, look at some belts, and learn how to serve you? Biaozi, you have to learn how to discipline."
"Go away, get a piece of paper and I'll write the number down for you."
Nan Yi took out a notebook and threw it to Lai Biao. After Lai Biao wrote down the number, he took a glance at it and memorized it.
After having fun with Wang Qi and his gang until very late at night, Liu Zhen took the train back to Shanghai the next day. Nan Yi met with several people in succession, and then took Nan Wuwei to carry out a jumping operation. One airdropped into Shanghai, and the other went to Nanchen Village by land.
When Nan Yi arrived at Nanchen Village, the entrance to the village was bustling with activity. Two windmills under the archway were spinning as people were turning them. Empty rice husks were blown out of the windmills from time to time. At the outlet of the windmills, rice grains rushed upstream, but the wind was too strong. After a while, they could only fall powerlessly into the baskets.
A fair hand reached into the basket and scooped up a handful of rice. The middle finger of the other hand stroked the rice in the palm of the hand. He nodded with satisfaction and threw the rice back into the basket. The fair hand reached into his pocket and took out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, the price of which had risen to 10 yuan per pack. He cracked one out and held it in his mouth to light it up.
Through the gap in the valley windmill, Nan Yi saw Chen Zongqing directing people to unload the truck there.
Walking over, Nan Yi said to Chen Zongqing, "Why are you here to collect the public grain today?"
"This year, fewer people planted crops, and it rained for a few days at the beginning of the month. Most of the crops harvested this year still need to be dried for three days, which delayed us a bit."
There are basic requirements for paying public grain. The grain must be of good quality and dried sufficiently. It must pass through the grain windmill again before being weighed. After being weighed, it must be packed into sacks at the grain station, and some loss must be deducted.
Nan Yi didn't know whether there was a unified standard for this loss, and it wouldn't make much sense . Anyway, the grain station staff had the final say on how much to deduct.
The public grain that farmers have to pay includes agricultural tax and ordered grain, which was the unified purchase before 1985. It was changed to ordered in 1985. There was a fixed sales quantity based on the number of people and fields, and the state purchased it at a fraction of the market price, which means that the state would give money to the farmers.
However, the farmers cannot get the money for ordering grain directly. The money has to be deducted from various local expenses such as the three increases and five unifications, education surcharges, road construction fees, etc. Usually, there is no surplus, and farmers will end up in debt.
Therefore, the village cadres at this time have a very important job - to urge farmers to make up for the reserved money. If the family really cannot pay, the village will organize tractors to help farmers transport surplus grain to the grain station to sell.
Surplus grain was called patriotic grain in the past. It was called this name because grain production was not high in the early years. After paying the public grain tax, the remaining grain of the brigade was only enough to be distributed to the farmers to fill their stomachs.
"Stomach, stomach, you are already 120% full, you can't eat anymore, or you will get sick."
"You are such a bad old man. You only fed me seven grains of rice, and the rest was soup. You are fooling me."
Even if they have to rely on fools to feed themselves, they still use their own food rations to sell surplus grain to support national construction. If they didn't love the country deeply, they would not do this, so it is called patriotic grain.
"How much has the village's expenses increased this year?"
"Fortunately, the increase is not much. Although there are fewer people working on the land, with the addition of the farm machinery you sent, we have harvested more grain. This year, we don't have to buy food from outside, which can save a lot of money."
"Oh, there are enough people. Do you need my help?" Nan Yi nodded and said.
"It's almost done. You go home first. Shufen is here."
"good."
At Chen Zongqing's home, Cai Shufen stood next to a grain cabinet exposed to the sun, holding a bottle of DDT in one hand and folded straw paper in the other. She poured a little DDT on the straw paper and then stuffed the straw paper into the gap of the grain cabinet.
Nan Yi came closer to take a look and said, "Aunt, there are a lot of book lice. Why are there rice weevils in the food cabinet?"
"In the first half of the year, the ancestral hall was demolished and people were called in to do the work. They eat a lot of rice every day, so I put the rice in the granary. Isn't this a rice elephant? Nan Yi, wait a moment. Auntie will finish the work first and then entertain you."
"It's okay, Auntie, just go about your business. I see the bottle of dichlorvos has just been opened. Is it new?"
"I bought it the day before yesterday, 4.5 yuan a bottle. At the beginning of the year, it was 3.8 or 4 yuan. Last year, it was only 3.2 or 3.5 yuan. The price has risen too fast. Superphosphate, ammonium carbonate, and urea have all risen a lot. Farming is becoming less and less cost-effective."
The main farming force in Nanchen Village has become women, and they are women over 40 years old. The others either work in village enterprises or go out to work on their own, whether doing business or working in garment factories, electronics factories, or picking up garbage outside, they can create greater output than farming.
"It doesn't matter whether it's cost-effective or not. We still have to continue to plant the land. The grain in the village is sold cheaply, but if we buy it from outside, we can only buy it at a high price. It's because the villagers don't have grain certificates, so we don't get a share of the grain supply."
"Yes." Cai Shufen sighed and said, "Nan Yi, the land near the sea has been covered with soil. The people you sent here said it would be best to plant three or four crops of grass to build up fertilizer. However, it will easily turn into saline-alkali land again after a few years."
"Oh, Auntie, do you remember what the pH value of the soil was before covering it with soil?"
"PH value... oh, now I remember, it seems to be 8.2."
"8.2." Nan Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Aunt, I'll call a little devil over in a few days. He's an expert in small-scale intensive agriculture. Let him come over to investigate and formulate an agricultural development plan for the village. It's not cost-effective to grow staple food, but you can still make money by growing other things."
"It's agricultural machinery and they are experts. Nan Yi, how much money do you want to put into it? You should talk to Zong Qing and let the village pay for it."
"Aunt, it's okay, we'll figure it out later."
After applying medicine to the insects, Cai Shufen washed her hands and brought a bowl of Lei Cha to Nan Yi. "It's hot, so I won't make you Kung Fu tea. Just have a bowl of Lei Cha, which is iced."
"That's right, I'm a little hungry."
Nan Yi took the lei cha and ate it spoonful by spoonful.
At around three o'clock, Chen Zongqing came back from outside. At four o'clock, Cai Shufen started eating. There was no wine, and the fight was over in less than half an hour.
At five o'clock, everyone who should have come to the ancestral hall had arrived and the meeting was about to begin.
"Ruiwu, you go first."
There was no nonsense in the opening remarks. Chen Zongqing, who was sitting in the main seat, pointed directly at Chen Ruiwu, and the work reporting process began.
"Nanchen Architecture and Lingnan Trust Real Estate have won the 1.07 million square meters of residential land in Huadiwan at an auction. The auction cost was 280.8 million yuan, equivalent to a floor price of 218 yuan per square meter. We invested 160 million yuan to obtain 49% of the land use rights, and spent 7.4852 million yuan in the process of acquiring the land... sunk costs.
The next step is for both parties to jointly raise funds for the development of residential buildings and municipal engineering projects. The first phase of the project requires 132 million yuan in funds, and according to the agreement, we need to contribute 68 million yuan. "
After Chen Ruiwu finished speaking, he turned his eyes to Nan Yi.
"Uncle Ruiwu, you have been in contact with Lingnan Trust for quite some time. How do you feel about it?"
"It's not easy to deal with them. There will be a lot of disputes in the future. And they seem to have taken advantage of us. The money will go into their account, and we will be responsible for more than 60% of the work. In the future, the money from the sale of the house will also go through their hands. It will be very difficult to get this money."
Nan Yi nodded and said, "There are some things I didn't say last time, so I'll tell you today. The reason why I let Nanchen Construction and Lingnan Trust cooperate is because I know that with Nanchen Construction's qualifications and connections, it is impossible to win the Huadiwan project. We need the Lingnan Trust brand.
Now that the project is in hand, let's prepare for a friendly breakup. My bottom line is that we want 40% of the land. In order to decouple from Lingnan Trust, we will compensate them with 200 million yuan, which includes sunk costs.
Uncle Ruiwu, listen carefully. Of the 200 million yuan in funds, 180 million yuan must have formal contracts and transaction procedures that can withstand scrutiny. This money will be transferred from Shuangnan Holdings to Nanchen Construction's account via U.S. dollars. The other 20 million yuan is in Hong Kong dollars. You can have it in cash or in a foreign account.
To exchange US dollars for 180 million RMB, we will actually suffer a loss of at least 400 million RMB. So when you negotiate, it is best to talk in US dollars. The other party has great power and can probably get foreign exchange retention, so we can save a little. "
"Nan Yi, if you do this, the price we pay will be too high. We haven't seen anything yet, but we have to spend 800 million. How much interest will we get if we put this money in the bank in a year?" Chen Zongqing said.
"Theoretically, you can get at least 120 million in interest."
According to the current bank savings interest rate, with such a large amount of funds as 800 million, it is entirely possible to negotiate with the bank for a higher interest rate.
"Uncle Zong Qing, it's actually not as much as 800 million. It all depends on how Uncle Rui Wu negotiates." Nan Yi said to Chen Zong Qing, then looked at Chen Rui Wu and said, "Did you get Xiang Xun's ID card?"
"I got it."
"Oh, Uncle Zong Qing, from today on, Uncle Ruiwu is no longer a member of Nanchen Village. What he did has nothing to do with Nanchen Village."
After Nan Yi finished speaking, he looked at Chen Ruiwu and said, "Uncle Ruiwu, you will have to bear any blame for Nanchen Construction in the future. You will not bear it for nothing. Nanchen Construction will have your own 5% of the shares. You can withdraw your shares and cash them out anytime you want. Your shares are guaranteed to be worth 100 million yuan.
You have the final say in Nanchen Architecture. Whether there will be any blame depends on you and your ability to do things.
After this meeting, unless it involves the survival of the enterprise, the village will only ask you for profits and will no longer interfere in the specific affairs of Nanchen Construction; of course, if you do not do well, you will have to give up your position. "
As he spoke, Nan Yi glanced at everyone and said, "There are some things that Uncle Zong Qing is not comfortable saying, so let me say it. Nanchen Village is a village collective, and everyone is a part of the collective. The collective comes first, and the individual comes second. This principle will never change.
Each of you is in charge of a business, and when the profits handed over to the village increase in the future, you must not develop the idea that you have worked hard and made great contributions, but only get a small share when the money is divided. This is too unfair.
Only with the Nanchen Village platform can you have the opportunity to display your personal abilities. To put it bluntly, based on your own abilities, will you ever have the chance to talk about a business worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions in this lifetime?
If I don’t give everyone rice, is there any chance to make a good meal?
No, absolutely not.
I am fortunate to have become a famous figure in the village because of my personal relationship with Wei Zong, and then I was infected by the personal charm of Uncle Zong Qing. The reason why I am willing to spend a lot of money here is because of the strong cohesion of Wei Zong, Uncle Zong Qing, the village and everyone here.
Only when everyone works together with one mind can we accomplish great things.
Today, I'll put it here. Now is the investment period, which requires a lot of investment. I will continue to hold half of the shares. When the harvest period comes, the village can pay to buy most of my shares, or even all of my shares. I will only keep 5% of the dividend shares for Mr. Da.
My last name is not Chen, and my household registration is not in Nanchen Village, but I always consider myself a part of Nanchen Village, and always put the interests of the village collective first and my personal interests second.
Everyone here has the surname Chen. The furthest blood relationship you have is that you all have the same father as long as you go back eight generations. You should consider the collective more and worry less about personal gains and losses.
Well, what I said should be redundant, I believe in the character of everyone here.
Uncle Ruiwu, real estate is inseparable from the ways of the world and welcoming and seeing off people. I don't want to see you make a mistake, and I don't want you to bear the blame, but once you have to bear it, you must bear it. "
"I will definitely take the blame if there is any." Chen Ruiwu nodded heavily.
"Buying a house can empty the pockets of ordinary people, but selling the house as expensively as possible is in our interests and in line with the needs of the overall environment. We at Nanchen Construction can sell expensive houses, but we cannot sell poor quality houses. I will give you five principles for the last time."
"Sir, please go ahead."
"First, the quality of the house must be guaranteed. If there are casualties due to the quality of the house, you must first make compensation that satisfies the victims. You pay for it yourself. If someone dies, you will go down and be buried with them.
Second, do not shirk responsibility. You can use some unpresentable means to trick people into buying our house, but you must fulfill the conditions promised to the buyers. As for the means of tricking people, call me again when we have a house to put on the market, and I will tell you what I have learned.
3. Control leverage and never let it go;
Fourth, the wages of the workers on the construction site must not be delayed. The wages promised must be paid on time. They can only be paid in advance and not delayed. If the contractor who takes our work delays the payment, we will dig a hole for him to advance the funds for the big project and punish him until he jumps off the building.
5. No Hermès belts allowed. "
"Sir, what does this...what does this fifth article mean?" Chen Ruiwu said with a confused look on his face.
Nan Yi said playfully, "Just remember it first, you will know it later. Uncle Zong Qing, go on."
"Okay, next one, Wei Zong, you go first. You have missed several meetings. Today, you should explain your work situation to everyone."
"Okay, village chief, Mr. Da, currently Nanchen Liquor has a total of 500 million shares, of which 10% are Liming shares, totaling 50 million shares. This share has been distributed, and the shareholder list is not convenient to be made public.
Ansheng shares 15%, totaling 75 million shares, 35 million shares have been distributed, and the shareholder list is also not convenient to be made public;
10% development shares, amounting to 50 million shares, and there is no plan to sell this share to the outside at present;
Technology & Management shares: 3.5%, or 17.5 million shares. Except for Nan Yi's personal holding of 0.5%, or 2.5 million shares, the remaining shares have not yet been divided.
I have to explain here that Nan Yi’s shares are actually his own shares, but they are held in the name of technology and management shares.”
"Wait a minute, Wei Zong, the shareholders of my 2.5 million shares need to change." Nan Yi interrupted.
"Is there anyone else holding the shares on my behalf?" Chen Weizong asked.
"It will be divided into three parts. 750,000 shares will belong directly to Fan Hongdou personally, 750,000 shares will belong to me and will be held by Hongdou on my behalf, and I will find a company to hold the remaining 1 million shares."
After Chen Weizong wrote it down in his notebook, he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I will continue. There are also 25% of market reserve shares in the shares, which are prepared for listing in the secondary market in the future.
That is to say, after all the preparatory steps are completed, Shuangnan Holdings will still be able to retain 31.5% of the shares.
Now that I have explained the situation of the shares, let me talk about other things.
Nanchen Liquor was advertised once on TV before and gained a certain degree of popularity. However, after that, it was not sold to the public. Only a portion of liquor for special purposes was produced and circulated outside. Weihao will explain the situation of these liquors to everyone later.
At present, the main work within the Nanchen Wine Factory is to produce unpackaged wine, part of which is used for cellaring and part of which is used for stockpiling, waiting to be put on the market when Nanchen wine takes off.
In addition, I have started to establish a factory art troupe and plan to attract art talents with high salaries. Once the personnel are in place, I will start to choreograph the dances "Stepping on the Wine Song" and "I Offer Liquor to the Motherland."
"You're not offering liquor, you're offering foreign exchange."
"Yes, it's foreign exchange, not liquor." Chen Weizong quickly changed his words.
"Wei Zong, dance is very important. We need to strive for excellence from the beginning when selecting artistic talents. We need to attract the best talents with high salaries. We can provide them with houses if they want them, and offer them a monthly salary of 350, 810, or 1,000 yuan. As long as they are talented and good-looking, we can give them as high a salary as possible.
Candidates must understand that working in the Nanchen Wine Industry Art Troupe can not only support their families, but also make them rich.
From choreography, training, to rehearsal, every step needs to be taken seriously, and the final result must be good, and must be qualified to represent the country and perform on the world stage.
Michelin makes tires, but the Michelin restaurant level is recognized by most Westerners; similarly, we make wine, but in the field of dance, we want to be at the top of the world.
Ultimately, we want to send a message to the outside world: the best talents in the art troupe will dance in the workshop, and the second-best ones will dance on the stage. "
Nan Yi said, and suddenly added: "By the way, when choreographing, ask historical experts to participate. Choreograph, choreograph as much as possible, and make the lie sound complete for me. Make sure to give the dance the greatest historical accumulation and cultural connotation."
"Understood." Chen Weizong nodded and pointed at Chen Weihao, "Weihao, explain the situation next."
"At present, the business model of recycling famous cigarettes and famous liquors has been rolled out across the country. In the south, it is spreading from the city level to the county level. In the north, at the city level, there is at least one company engaged in this business. We have already withdrawn from this business and are focusing on stabilizing the price of Nanchen liquor.
Our current market price for Nanchen Liquor is 32.5, and the recycling price of famous cigarette and liquor recycling shops ranges from 33 to 35 yuan, while our terminal recycling price ranges from 42 to 44 yuan. For a bottle of wine to go around, our average cost is 10.2 yuan, and the monthly recovery cost is about 94,000 yuan.
In addition, there are costs of replacing packaging and re-purchasing of approximately 20,000 yuan, with a total monthly expenditure of 114,000 yuan.
However, some people are competing with us to buy the wine. Their recycling price ranges from 45 to 48 yuan. I don’t know what they will do with the wine.”
Nan Yi stroked the teacup and asked, "How much was taken away?"
"350 bottles at most. We have just recovered most of the wine and are releasing it. The number is easy to calculate."
"Wei Zong, make some minor adjustments to the packaging. Make a code that only you can understand. Wei Hao, do a good job of counting. I want to know the number they took away, accurate to 10 bottles. Also, how much counterfeit wine have you recovered?"
"In total, 207 bottles were collected. The counterfeiting techniques ranged from crude to indistinguishable, but none of them could escape our fluorescent detection."
Nanchen Liquor Industry has launched a special-purpose wine on the market. The wine contains harmless fluorescent ingredients, so it is safe for people to drink it. It only needs to be illuminated by special light to reflect light, making it very easy to check whether the wine has been replaced.
"The quantity is still within the controllable range. Weihao, you must keep a close eye on the counterfeit wine. If anyone drinks it and it turns out to be problematic, the blame will fall on us. Weizong, the second set of plastic sealing solutions for the bottle mouth can be used. Let's temporarily deal with the counterfeit problem."
"OK."
"The next step of Nanchen Wine Industry's 'Foreign Exchange Earning Model' plan can be launched, and the first step is to capture the high-end market of Suxiu."
Nan Yi said this, taking out a few pieces of paper from his bag and passing them to everyone in the ancestral hall.
"You can see the prices of all high-end wines in the Soviet revisionist market on paper. I asked marketing and brand marketing experts to make a comprehensive consideration and found that 65 rubles is a more appropriate price for Nanchen wine. This is the terminal selling price. Our ex-factory price is temporarily set at 85 yuan."
"Nan Yi, how much is 65 rubles in RMB?" Chen Zongqing asked.
"About 226."
"Nan Yi, isn't the price too high? Whether it's the factory price or the terminal selling price, is it necessary to leave such a large profit margin for dealers?"
"Wei Zong, you shouldn't ask this question. You have participated in the entire process of Nanchen Liquor. You should be very clear about the difficulty of creating a high-end liquor brand. It is very difficult for Nanchen Liquor to expand into the Suxiu market. If you don't leave enough attractive profit margins for distributors, how can they spend a lot of effort to promote it?
We not only need to give dealers a considerable profit margin, but also give them strong support. As long as the requirements are reasonable, we will try our best to meet them.
In the near future, Nanchen wine will only be exported. Wherever there is strong liquor, there must be our Nanchen wine. We not only want real sales, but also want to create false data.
I want you to calculate a reasonable foreign exchange earning figure for next year as soon as possible, and strive to achieve actual sales volume. If it is not achieved, we will produce the data even if we buy and sell on our own.
Weihao, you need to cooperate with Weizong's progress and push up the price of domestic Nanchen wine. As long as the annual budget does not exceed 3 million, you don't need to report, just keep doing it. "
"All right."
"clear."
The report from Nanchen Wine Industry has ended, and the next person to report is Chen Xiejing from Heche Group.
"The group's mini four-wheel drive vehicle was sued in Xiangkeng." Chen Xiejing spoke the bad news as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Who made you taller? Tamiya?"
