Chapter 368 Bank; Xiangyang Lake; New Year, New Variety (asking for monthly tickets!)
"It depends, leader. If this energy forest is well developed, it will definitely boost the economy."
Since it is possible to be included in the Western Development Project, it must be supported by national policies and funds, Qin Lijun said without hesitation after hearing this.
However, Guo Yang felt that it was not that easy.
The western development is mostly about "railway, highway and infrastructure", which are areas led by central state-owned enterprises.
Although he hopes that state capital will enter the energy forest, which means that the plate can be expanded rapidly, once it is put into production and sees benefits, the Hongqi River project will be further developed.
But Guo Yang was also unwilling to let anyone interfere with Jiahe’s existing energy forest.
Unless it is a separate item.
However, looking at the current situation, the country is also worried about the risks involved.
The oil-jatropha mess is still there!
Director Liu said: "I am just passing on a message. The rest needs to be communicated between the province and the city itself."
Guo Yang and Qin Lijun looked at each other, and the latter nodded. It seemed that he had to go back to find his leader.
"What about crop rotation and fallow? The 2 mu of land in Long Province is all in Jiuquan. Isn't that too little?"
"It's a bit small." Qin Lijun also agreed, "When the city was piloting, it cultivated nearly 7 acres."
"The fiscal pressure this year is not small, and the country has only carried out a pilot project on a few million acres." At this time, Xiao Le, who was responsible for the formulation of specific policies, introduced the situation.
"There are 100 million mu in Inner Mongolia, 50 mu in Liaoning, 100 million mu in Jilin, and 250 million mu in Heilongjiang. These are all in rotation and fallow."
"In addition, 100 million mu of land will be seasonally fallowed in the groundwater funnel area of Hebei Province, 10 mu of land will be fallowed in the heavy metal pollution area of Hunan Province, 4 mu of land will be fallowed in the rocky desertification area of southwest China, and 2 mu of land will be fallowed in the ecological degradation area of Gansu Province."
"Each subsidy is different, but it can basically ensure that it is equivalent to the farmers' planting income."
Qin Lijun and Guo Yang were not very interested. Compared with other regions, Long Province and Jiuquan received relatively little support.
It can only be said that it is better than nothing.
The subsidy for one crop area is 600 yuan per mu, which is less than the subsidy given by Jiuquan last year.
Fortunately, the subsidy for fallow land for consecutive years is 1600 million yuan each year, which can also reduce a lot of pressure on the city.
Then, Zhuang Yihui talked about some technical issues of crop rotation.
Guo Yang and Qin Lijun were not interested either. Jiuquan was far ahead in this regard, and the hydrological environment in the Shule River Basin had begun to improve significantly.
"Okay, there is also a rural financial reform, and the pilot area was not in Longnan Province."
Director Liu smiled and said, "But the leader specifically said that we should take care of Jiahe."
"Can Jiahe be issued a banking license?"
Director Liu was stunned for a moment, and said: "Uh... this is not possible yet, but we can provide some convenience in village banks."
"Ok."
Guo Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was a bit useless. When he first heard about the rural financial reform, he thought it would be very convenient.
Jiahe has long had the idea of entering the banking industry, especially the rural financial sector.
If we want projects like energy forests to produce a fission effect, the best way is to mobilize the broad masses of farmers.
But farmers are short of money and existing financial measures are not effective.
At the end of 2006, the China Banking Regulatory Commission allowed industrial capital and private capital to set up new banks in rural areas for the first time.
However, there are many restrictions.
The sponsor must be a domestic banking financial institution, private capital shareholding cannot exceed 10%, cross-regional operations are not allowed, etc.
This is all aimed at limiting the possibility that companies may gain actual control over bank operations.
In other words, even if private capital can hold up to 85% of the shares, the initiating bank often has the final say, and this can only be described as a "wealth investment."
This did not appeal to Golden Harvest.
In fact, the reason for rural financial reform is that rural areas have been drained of money too seriously.
Even the Agricultural Bank of China has a very clear business strategy: it will move away from farming, return to cities, and significantly streamline its rural branches.
The Agricultural Development Bank of China only acts as an agent for the finance department to issue grain purchase loans. It operates in a closed manner and does not have any credit business relationship with individual farmers.
Postal Savings Bank of China “only provides deposits but no loans”, but it has many branches in rural areas and is widely distributed. It absorbs a large amount of deposits and transfers them to the People’s Bank of China, resulting in a large outflow of rural funds. Instead of supporting agriculture, it has become the biggest “blood-sucking machine” for rural funds.
Therefore, there is a lack of funds for rural development.
When farmers want to get a loan, they don’t know how many stamps and procedures they need to go through.
If rural finance can be revitalized, the fission speed of energy forests will be faster than you can imagine.
Jiahe can only provide some small loans at present, and there are too many restrictions. The best way is to gain the right to speak in a private bank.
Currently, the only national joint-stock commercial bank in China that is mainly sponsored by private capital is China Minsheng Bank, which was established in 1996.
Over the past decade, the banking industry has undergone several reforms, but the qualifications of private capital as the main initiator seem to have disappeared passively.
"Private banks are also willing to loosen up." Seeing Guo Yang's lack of interest, Director Liu said, "But we have to take it slow."
"The current rural financial reform can also provide some convenience for farmers who want to borrow money."
What could Guo Yang say but to express his gratitude. It was also a good thing to be able to provide farmers with more loans.
Anyway, Jiahe can also provide micro loans.
This year's No. 1 document is expected to be released on February 1, which is the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
The Ministry of Agriculture has been busy working overtime, and experts and officials from all over the country come here from time to time.
Guo Yang and Qin Lijun communicated with the Crop Production Management Bureau about some land transfer issues, and the mission was completed.
However, it seems that I didn't get any benefit from this trip back and forth. I just came here to make a contribution.
Oh, no, there are also internal tickets for the Spring Festival Gala.
Qin Lijun went back alone. Guo Yang was curious about the Spring Festival Gala, but after learning the inside story, he finally chose not to participate.
It's so torturous.
You have to sit there for hours, unable to move around or communicate freely, and you have to rehearse several times.
After refunding the ticket, Guo Yang spent another two days visiting some familiar leaders.
When I was about to go back to Jiuquan, I received another call from Director Liu, "I heard that you refunded the ticket?"
"Yes, leader, leave it to those in need. Those who can participate in the Spring Festival Gala are those who have made contributions to the country. I won't join in the fun."
"Hey, kid, you've made quite a contribution." Director Liu said with a smile, "Hurry back to have the New Year's Eve dinner?"
"No, I don't usually celebrate the New Year." Guo Yang said casually, "I was just thinking about where to go ice fishing near the capital!"
"Going fishing on New Year's Day?"
"That's just what I like."
On the balcony of a residential building in a large compound, after hanging up the phone, Director Liu frowned, as if this guy had always been a lonely person.
It’s really strange!
At this time, shouts were heard from inside the house.
"Lao Liu, we've finished eating and talking on the phone, why are you still sitting on the balcony in a daze?"
"coming."
Director Liu responded and returned to the living room, where the family had already gathered in a circle.
"Who are you talking to on the phone? You're still in a daze."
"An interesting young man." Director Liu smiled and said, "He said he wanted to go fishing."
"Ah, from your unit? Aren't the employees who stayed behind from the ministry going to hold activities together in the dormitory building?"
Director Liu said: "He is not from our unit, but the boss of a company."
The group lost interest instantly.
...
After visiting all the leaders, Guo Yang did not plan to return to Jiuquan.
He also informed the group about some inside information about Document No. 1, and all subsidiaries need to pay close attention.
He planned to find a place to fish in the capital.
When it comes to ice fishing, there are professional fishing grounds in Beijing and many places selling ice fishing rods. It is both convenient and safe, but Xiangyang Lake in Altay is too far away.
Employees also need holidays.
After finishing the work, Guo Yang said to Luo Xiu: "How about you go home for the New Year and I'll go alone."
"Forget it." Luo Xiu shook his head. "I took a break during the year, but you haven't taken a day off, boss."
"That's fine."
So, after preparing their fishing gear, they looked it up online and came to a fishing spot in Huairou.
This period of time is the most suitable season for ice fishing, as the ice is thicker and stronger.
When he walked to the door, Guo Yang saw that there were quite a few tents set up inside.
The two came to the ticket office, a small room, and knocked on the door, and a tightly wrapped woman leaned out of the window.
"Boss, how much is this per person?"
"It's 120 yuan per person. You can take all the fish you catch away or recycle them," said the boss with a smile.
"Okay, give us two tickets." Although it was a bit expensive, it was almost the holiday season, so Guo Yang could understand and handed over the money.
"Okay."
After bringing the two men to the tent, the boss said repeatedly, "Tell me if you need anything."
"Okay, I'm sure you can be of use."
The tent was equipped with tables and chairs, as well as a pot and a heater. In the corners of the tent, there were two ice caves.
Since entering the tent, Guo Yang had no other thoughts.
"Fishing, fishing!"
"Let's see if I can make back my money today and give the boss a hand."
Luo Xiu also sat down on the stool and said, "It's difficult. 240 yuan for two people. How many fish must have been caught?"
"Eighty to ninety kilograms of fish." Guo Yang thought for a moment, "In eight hours, one person should be able to catch forty to fifty kilograms of fish."
Although there are many tents, Guo Yang just took a special look and found that there is not much business. Maybe everyone is staying at home to celebrate the New Year.
Luo Xiu was not very confident, "Um... I'll try my best."
Guo Yang ignored him and had to rely on himself to quickly assemble the equipment, hang up the red worms, enter the pit, and get into the state quickly.
When it comes to fishing, Guo Yang becomes particularly patient and focused.
No distractions.
Luo Xiu next to him was obviously restless. He would pick up his fishing rod from time to time to take a look, and occasionally go out for a walk.
Guo Yang said: "Fishing requires patience. How can you be a fisherman?"
"It's really boring without any fish!"
Just at that time, Guo Yang saw the float move, and when he pulled it up, he found a small fish two fingers wide.
"so small?"
Guo Yang was a little disgusted. The fish was much worse than the ones from Xiangyang Lake. If all the fish were like this, let alone the boss, he might only make a net profit of 240 yuan for the two of them.
After sitting for another hour, Guo Yang felt a little helpless.
The bait was ready and the nest was prepared, but no fish were caught.
After persisting for a while, Luo Xiu had already given up and Guo Yang also lost his enthusiasm.
"People's hearts are not as old as they used to be!"
"These bosses don't think about doing business for a long time. This fishing ground may not have any fish at all."
"I'm going to go and argue with the boss." After saying that, Luo Xiu opened the tent and was about to go out.
"Forget it." Guo Yang said, "It's not necessary. I won't fish anymore. Let's go back." When they left, the proprietress asked why they didn't fish anymore. Neither of them paid any attention to her.
That's not how the fishing business works.
On the way back to the city, Guo Yang felt more and more depressed. Several things at the Ministry of Agriculture did not go as he wished, and his good fishing trip was ruined by these unscrupulous bosses.
At this time, domestic fishing grounds were indeed not standardized.
"Luo Xiu, Xiangyang Lake has been under development for two and a half years, right?"
"Yes." Luo Xiu thought for a moment, "The project should have been established in June 2006, exactly two and a half years."
"Then it's time to make some noise."
The agreement signed with Xiangyang Lake is to invest 1 million yuan.
But after Guo Yang looked at the financial statements, he found that less than 10 million yuan was spent on the construction of the fishing base.
A professional international-level lure dock, equipped with professional lifeboats and lure boats, a dense pool for experience, and related catering and accommodation.
And the main focus is on the environmental management of lakes.
There is also soft culture construction, but it is too slow, it’s like raising fish here!
The more I think about it, the angrier I get!
Guo Yang took out his recently purchased Nokia N85, flipped through the phone book, found Zheng Wang's name in Xiangyang Lake and dialed the number.
"When will the first Xiangyang Lake Luya Fishing Competition be held?"
On the other side, Zheng Wang was visiting his relatives to wish them a happy new year. He was shocked when he suddenly received a call and almost thought that his boss came to wish him a happy new year.
Fortunately, it is work...
After sorting out his thoughts for a while, Zheng Wang said, "We held several training camps last year, and we plan to hold an exchange competition in July this year to build up popularity."
"Too slow." Guo Yang was a little dissatisfied, "Don't you know how to spend money?"
"Just hold large-scale events, even international events. If no one pays attention, spend money on promotion, such as magazines, the Internet, and TV ads."
"If you don't have any famous players, just raise the prize money. If one million is not enough, then raise it to two million or five million. Are you afraid that no one will come if the prize money is high?"
Zheng Wang said in embarrassment: "The initial investment is too high and we will never make a profit."
"I never thought about making a profit." Guo Yang said: "This is my hobby, understand? No one is asking you to save money!"
“You want me to teach you for money?
"Bold flower!"
"Okay!" Zheng Wang blushed. Luya has always been a niche sport in China, and it has only seen some improvement in the past two years.
"Since the event has a lot of investment, we can hold a Masters Invitational Tournament and try to invite some top players from abroad."
Guo Yang said: "I don't care, I just want you to start the competition!"
"Training camps, exchange competitions, elite competitions, points competitions, city PK competitions, and even ice fishing competitions are all fine. We should hold more competitions."
"Damn it, if you don't hold a competition or an event, how can I take the opportunity to go fishing?"
"beep…"
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Zheng Wang felt that something had happened to him. The boss was trying to fish for him!
This game has to be brought forward!
We have to do it when the ice melts in May. No, he recalled what his boss said, and it seemed that his boss also mentioned an ice fishing competition!
He is also an avid fishing enthusiast and has participated in competitions, but he did not achieve very good results.
I guess no one has ever held an ice fishing competition!
MD!
It has to be done in March.
Thinking of this, Zheng Wang began to think about who to contact, as time was running out and there was no time to prepare for a large-scale event.
But there is definitely interest in training camp.
Clubs that are familiar with each other can recruit a few people to dominate the scene, and the others can seek support from units in the city and the Corps. Jiahe can also form a team...
How much should the bonus be set?
Generally, a prize of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan is enough for the champion of such a competition, but if the boss knew about it, he would probably be scolded.
One hundred thousand yuan?
Depend on!
It’s a huge difference from the several million the boss proposed, but that’s lure fishing, while ice fishing can only use a hand rod.
Five hundred thousand yuan!
To make it more popular, the prize money is comparable to some large-scale hand-held tournaments!
It always attracts many professional clubs.
In just a short while, Zheng Wang sorted out a lot of ideas and then started to make contact.
During the Chinese New Year, Zheng Wang suddenly felt his blood boiling, as there would be endless competitions throughout the year!
...
On the other side, Guo Yang returned to Minqin, and Luo Xiu was also sent back by him to celebrate the New Year.
I had New Year’s Eve dinner at my eldest brother’s house and watched the Spring Festival Gala for a while. The only two programs that impressed me were: Liu Qian’s magic and Xiao Shenyang’s “Not Short of Money”.
This also made Guo Yang realize that the future is getting closer.
However, his memory of what happened in the past two years was a little fuzzy. He always felt that something important happened, but he couldn't remember it.
The festive atmosphere is strong at this time, and the county is bustling everywhere.
Guo Yang felt out of place, so he returned to his villa in Jiuquan early.
In the study, in front of the computer, Guo Yang was typing down everything he could think of.
There are still some investment projects.
Mainly in the fields of Internet and technology, all of which will be invested by Weiguang.
But I still feel like there is something I haven’t remembered.
"Forget it. I'll pay more attention to domestic and international news this year. Maybe I'll remember it when the time comes."
After comforting himself for a while, Guo Yang continued to surf the Internet.
I read and study, exercise, play games, think about breeding, and occasionally go to the factory to visit employees who stay behind to work overtime.
A simple and unpretentious Spring Festival just passed like this.
February 1st.
On the first day of work after the holiday, Guo Yang rushed to the company early and sent a message in the group as soon as possible.
"All subsidiaries immediately analyzed and studied Document No. 1 and came up with detailed response plans."
Years ago, Guo Yang took precautions in advance, so each company also made some preparations.
At nine o'clock, the document was officially released.
In order to expand domestic demand and boost the economy, this year's No. 1 document is extremely important.
Many of them are closely related to Jiahe.
The first is the various subsidies.
The budgets for direct subsidies for grain planting, comprehensive subsidies for agricultural inputs, subsidies for the purchase of agricultural machinery, and subsidies for high-quality seeds have increased significantly to 1230 billion yuan.
Subsidies for high-quality rice, wheat, corn, cotton and soybean varieties have achieved full coverage, among which soybeans are entirely brought about by Jiahe.
In addition, potato seed production and subsidies for improved beef cattle and sheep breeds have also been launched.
But the fastest increase is in agricultural machinery subsidies, with central government subsidies of 130 billion yuan this year.
In 2004, it was only 7000 million yuan, and the previous year it was only 40 billion yuan.
It has increased eightfold in six years!
The types of subsidized equipment and the scope of implementation have also been further expanded!
The golden age of agricultural mechanization has finally arrived.
In addition, there are also rural infrastructure projects that greatly strengthen the agricultural foundation and improve people's livelihood, including roads, drinking water, power grids, standard grain fields...
Among them is the renovation of dilapidated houses in a state-owned reclamation area, which is extremely valuable for water-saving and fallow land in the Hexi Corridor.
Doesn’t immigration also fall under the category of dilapidated housing renovation?
There are also other clauses such as land transfer, creation of high-yield grain, cotton and oil fields, etc.
Guo Yang read them one by one.
It can be said that there are many opportunities.
But that’s not all. After the construction started, when Jiahe was busy holding various work meetings, the Ministry of Agriculture issued several documents one after another.
"Notice on the Preparation for Rapeseed Procurement in 2009" - the general meaning is that this winter rapeseed will have a good harvest, and some domestic companies are commissioned to purchase and store it, with a subsidy of 0.1 yuan per catty.
"Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Healthy Development of the Soybean Processing Industry" - clearly proposes to support domestic soybean processing enterprises, while foreign investors will be handled according to the policy.
The two documents are extremely targeted.
The apparent reason is naturally the recent rumors at home and abroad that ADM is going to acquire Wilmar International.
The deeper reason is that China has gradually changed from a pure grain consumer to an exporter, which has attracted many grain traders to invest in the country.
In order to stabilize the food market, the top leaders believe it is necessary to take some protective measures.
However, many people in Jiahe do not think so, and believe that it is the boss's trip to Beijing that has contributed to this.
No matter how Guoyang explained, it was of no use.
Guo Yang was in meetings for a week after the Spring Festival, and after the meetings, subsidiaries in various places began to get busy.
He dived into the laboratory and began to cultivate new seeds.
It still combines the extreme environments, water areas, natural enemy insects and flowers from last time to expand the species.
At the same time, some categories have been added, such as glacier periglacial zones in extreme environments and indoor and outdoor plants that are conducive to carbon neutrality.
There were a total of 2 points of natural energy, 1.8 of which were spent, leaving only 0.2 points to be used.
More than 50 varieties were cultivated, plus the more than 50 varieties cultivated last time, a total of more than 100 varieties were cultivated in these two times.
However, the average points last time were about 100, while this time it was as high as 360 points.
What is gratifying is that the natural energy of two varieties has exceeded 1000 points one after another because of the good genes of their seed materials!
【Species】: Fir
[Natural Energy]: 1118
【Characteristics】: The root system is well developed, which can stabilize the soil, conserve water resources, and reduce soil erosion.
[Characteristic 2]: Every time it rains, the canopy and root system will intercept more rainwater, absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen more effectively, greatly increase air humidity, and form a local water cycle.
【Characteristic 3】: It grows very fast and can even be considered a fast-growing tree species.
【Characteristic 4】: Extremely resistant to high cold.
[Characteristic 5]: When plant communities are formed, the speed of local water circulation can be greatly accelerated, affecting local or regional atmospheric precipitation.
...
【Variety】: Stipa
[Natural Energy]: 1023
【Characteristic 1】: High-quality forage, favored by cattle, horses and sheep in spring and summer before heading.
[Characteristic 2]: When forming plant communities, it can intercept more water and absorb more solar radiation.
[Characteristic 3]: When their lives come to an end, they begin to wither and enter the soil. Then, through decomposition by microorganisms, they emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, forming a terrestrial carbon cycle.
【Characteristic 4】:Drought-resistant, cold-resistant, and barren-resistant...
There are many kinds of ecological plants, but fir and needlegrass can undoubtedly solve some problems in high-altitude and cold areas.
In addition to ecological management plants, Guo Yang also cultivated several crops, including those with high yield, good quality and good resistance.
But in comparison, it's still a bit mediocre.
The impact of plants on precipitation is no longer a secret thanks to modern scientific research.
Studies have shown that the transpiration of plants on continents far from the ocean has a significant impact on the precipitation in the region, such as the northwest and Qinghai-Tibet regions.
Although there are no specific values, fir and needlegrass have definitely been greatly strengthened.
Another step towards changing the Northwest.
The impact may even be greater. For example, Guo Yang speculates that fir, needlegrass, and some other alpine plants can increase air wetlands and precipitation in alpine areas.
Does that also mean that the glaciers will become thicker, or that artificial snow can be created?
Everything is worth exploring.
