Chapter 124 Unintentional Intention

Guo Yang was indeed dissatisfied with the R&D progress.

Since Jiahe acquired Fengkai Agricultural Machinery, the total investment has been close to 2 million yuan.

And it is supported by the technical data he analyzed at the Hanover Agricultural Machinery Show.

The results of it?
The main products promoted were internal combustion engines and tractors; there was not even a single sample of the most critical grain and forage harvesting machinery.

Guo Yang's eyes swept over everyone in the R&D center.

He personally interviewed Guan Cheng, a top student who had returned from studying abroad. He also asked him some testing questions about the future development directions of agricultural machinery.

At least the technical capabilities are sufficient.

In addition, the subsequent team of engineers recruited was also carefully selected, with top-notch academic qualifications and work experience.

That should be fine.

Guo Yang's eyes inadvertently lingered on a few old employees for a moment.

She lowered her head, not daring to look him in the face.

“Are there any other products?”

"Yes, yes."

Guan Cheng came back to his senses.

“In the past six months, Quanwang Biotechnology has put forward new demands on plant extraction, and the R&D center has gradually improved the process accordingly.

At present, the solvent consumption of plant extraction has been further reduced, the efficiency has been greatly improved, and other plant pigments can also be extracted.

Moreover, in addition to capsanthin, industrial production equipment for capsaicin and capsaicin has also been put into production.

Next, Quan Wang wants to tackle the problem of biochemical products and needs our assistance."

Guo Yang raised his eyebrows.

"Biochemical products?"

"Yes. Quanwang's main research direction now is ship rust and corrosion inhibitors, as well as medicines and disinfectants. Especially in the development and utilization of fungicides, Tianhe Seed Industry is also very interested."

"Fungicide? The King of All is going to develop biological pesticides."

Guo Yang was surprised. This King of All has something!

The process of plant extraction has not only been extended to other plants, but the field of deep processing of peppers has quietly found a new direction.

Biological pesticides do have application prospects.

"What does their work on fungicides have to do with Fengkai?"

Guan Cheng had no words to grievance. The last time he helped Quanwang test the production line, he tried to show off by revealing to Yu Qin the news that the group was going to increase its investment.

He boasted without knowing what was good for him.
“No matter how niche the agricultural machinery is, as long as there is a need within the group, we can develop it.”

Then he was consumed by Yu Qin,
Whether it is process improvement or equipment development, Fengkai’s R&D personnel must be involved in everything.

If you were to ask who is the most competitive under Golden Harvest, the first one in Guan Cheng’s mind would be Omni-King Creature.

Under Yu Qin's leadership, everyone is like a bunch of beasts.

Seeing Guan Cheng's expression, Guo Yang also understood.

"Any more?"

"Yes, a pepper stem remover."

"Are you doing research and development for the Omni-King?"

"Puchi...", an inappropriate laughter came from the crowd, and then stopped in surprise.

It’s those old employees.

It should be said that the entire R&D center is mainly composed of old employees, and most of the newly hired engineers are sent to other places.

Guo Yang understood a little bit and ignored those people.

"Are there people from Tianhe Seed Industry as well?"

"Ah."

Guo Yang asked with a strange look in his eyes: "Are there any results?"

"Yes, we helped them optimize the plot seeding machine, plot breeding and yield measuring instruments, and seed sorting system."

Guo Yang said unhappily: "You are quite capable. You have become familiar with all the subsidiaries."

Guan Cheng scratched the back of his head.

“They are all brother units.”

"There is also some content in this regard in the technical information provided by the group." Guo Yang clearly felt that Guan Cheng's figure was more relaxed at this time, and he spoke with confidence.

"We are all brothers, so why haven't you guys developed agricultural machinery for Alfalfa? Are you forming cliques?"

Guan Cheng waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, I don't have it."

Guo Yang was amused by Guan Cheng's funny appearance. Intellectuals are just too serious.

“How is the product effect? ​​Can it be put into production?”

Guan Cheng said solemnly: "The product is absolutely good, Quanwang and Tianhe Seeds have nothing but praise!"

"The pepper stem remover is already in production, all of which are ordered by Quanwang Biological. The seed sorting line can start production at any time if there is an order."

The corners of Guo Yang's mouth trembled unconsciously.

It can only be said that it was an unintentional achievement that led to a breakthrough in niche agricultural machinery.

Especially seed machinery,
Because the market is small, key technologies are difficult to master, and R&D costs are high, large companies are unwilling to do it and small companies are unable to do it.

This aspect has always been a shortcoming in China.

However, with the analytical information provided by Guo Yang, Tianhe Seed Industry put forward another demand.

Guan Cheng led people to try it out.
I didn't expect it to work out.

There is also a pepper stem remover, which is probably a unique product at the moment.

There is also practicality.
It’s just that this little thing doesn’t quite fit in with Golden Harvest’s temperament.

"The next research and development focus will be on combine harvesters and complete sets of forage machinery. We will import parts and materials that need to be imported. I want to see the products on the market during the harvest season next year."

"Yes!"

"Where is the person in charge of the production line? The tractors can be put into production now, and the internal combustion engines can also be promoted at the same time."

"it is good."

Looking at Guo Yang's departing back, everyone in the R&D center breathed a sigh of relief.

The scene returned to its playful state.

Guan Cheng looked at this scene and took two engineers to assemble the combine harvester.

Yes, assembly.

The technical level of their multi-cylinder machines is already able to meet the requirements of combine harvesters with relatively high supporting performance.

Now that the most critical engine problem has been solved, how difficult can the rest be?

It’s just that some people are used to living a mediocre life.

……

Guo Yang stayed in Fengkai for another two days before waiting for Yu Honghai to return from a business trip.

"Why do I feel like you've gained two more pounds?"

Yu Honghai said with a smile: "Dealing with agricultural machinery departments at all levels, eating a lot of meat and drinking a lot every day, how can I not get fat?"

"What was the result?"

"I can't tell if it's good or not."

Yu Honghai shook his head and continued to complain.

“I think that sooner or later, agricultural machinery subsidy funds will become a game of interests among manufacturers, dealers, agricultural machinery authorities and users.

The country has a national catalog of subsidized agricultural machinery models, each province has its own catalog of subsidized models, and some cities even have their own catalogs.

The differences in interests between departments at all levels are too great, and the marketing costs of production companies have been raised invisibly. "

Guo Yang also understood it, and the general meaning was that the tea bill was too high.

Yu Honghai continued: “Some places even asked me to negotiate and set a higher price in the agricultural machinery subsidy catalogue.

For example, our 50-horsepower tractor has a market price of 41500 yuan, but is priced at 45000 yuan in the catalog, with a subsidy of 7000 yuan.

Who benefits in the end? And who suffers?

Guo Yang was silent.

As a result of this operation, the actual purchase subsidy received by farmers who purchased the machines was reduced by half.

Agricultural machinery producers did not make any profit either.

However, manufacturers and dealers have to pay attention to this area. Subsidized agricultural machinery can account for 50%-60% of the market capacity in some places.

All the money was used for tea.
