Volume Four, Section 167: Shake hands, I support you
From the bottom of my heart, Sha Zhengyang is never willing to get into evil with Yuan Chenggong.
The county magistrate and the county party secretary have a dispute. Unless the county party secretary has a principled problem, the board will basically hit the county magistrate's butt. Of course, the county party secretary may not be able to get much better.
In addition, Yuan Chenggong is generally a good county party secretary. The foundation of Zhenyang's early stage was also laid by Yuan Chenggong. Moreover, the differences between him and Yuan Chenggong were more purely at work and did not have many personal grudges.
Both of them understand this in their hearts, and in a sense, Yuan Chenggong's point of view is not wrong. He just ignored the possibilities in certain situations.
After all, everyone is working and making Zhenyang a better future. Even if there are some personal wishes mixed in it, that is normal. Isn’t it the same for myself?
"Secretary Yuan, Jiuying Town has done a lot of work. In the next step, Zuotang, Huashan and Guanpi will also launch some infrastructure construction and pilot projects. Lao Fang has been doing these tasks very tightly and practically, and there is no big problem."
Sha Zhengyang first gave Yuan Chenggong a reassurance, and then talked about the other side.
"I don't know if Secretary Yuan noticed it. Yesterday's news broadcast, ******* met with the CEO of Nestlé Company and his party. The news I received said that the president of Nestlé Group's Greater China may visit Hanchuan in the near future. It is estimated that the main leaders of the province will meet with them. In addition, we will discuss the progress of the construction of Nestlé Wanzhou Food Company and the progress of the construction of milk source base."
"Oh?!" Yuan Chenggong was surprised. He had no control over the reception of the Nestlé CEO, but if the main leaders of the province wanted to meet with the president of Nestlé Greater China, it would have a different meaning, especially the issue that might be discussed involves Zhenyang, "Is the news reliable?"
"You know that because I used to work in the Economic and Technological Development Zone of the City, I have certain personal contacts with the executives of several companies. Yesterday, after seeing the news broadcast, I called a senior executive of Nestlé in Wanzhou. When he mentioned it, he said that the president of Greater China will be in Hanchuan in the near future, and will meet the main leaders of the province, and may even come to our Wanzhou for inspection. I just don't know if the leaders of the province will come."
Sha Zhengyang's words reached Yuan Chenggong's key point again. Yuan Chenggong pondered: "How is the progress of the construction of the milk source base in Huoji?"
"It's not satisfactory, but even if the president of Nestlé Greater China and his group came to Wanzhou, there is no need to go to Huoji to inspect it on site, right?" Sha Zhengyang said casually.
"Well, that's not necessarily the style of foreign businessmen. The style of many of our cadres is more down-to-earth than that of many of our cadres. What if any provincial leader wants to come and see it?" Yuan Chenggong would rather believe it or not. "The preliminary preparations should be done seriously. Since we, Zhenyang, have already promoted this work in accordance with the requirements of the city, we must do it well and give people a thumbs up after seeing it."
"This work involves a wide range of issues, involving the connection between Nestlé's site selection and the breeders in Huoji. Nestlé is willing to support it through some financial means. In addition, the municipal and county governments also have some policy support, mainly through Agricultural Bank of China and credit unions to support some qualified large-scale households to build standardized breeding farms. Of course, there are also some conditions that are lacking, but small and medium-sized breeders with good reputation can also be included."
Sha Zhengyang has figured out Yuan Chenggong's thoughts, what the leaders pay attention to, and what they pay attention to, so even if they are not what he originally valued, he is willing to make some compromises and concessions and support them. As long as you follow this path, there are many things that can be found in line with each other.
"At present, Huoji has set up twelve large breeders who have had experience in raising dairy cattle and have certain economic strength. They are preparing to sign an agreement with Nestlé Company, and Nestlé will support and help them build medium and large standardized farms. In addition, fifty small and medium-sized breeders have also passed the review of Huoji Town Government. They have now reported to the county agricultural bureau for a second round of review. If they pass, they will also be handed over to Nestlé to follow their review procedures."
Feeling that Yuan Chenggong's mentality has changed, Sha Zhengyang still has to tell the truth. Too much is not enough. Don't really think that a leader in the province pays attention to it. If he pours too much into it all at once and pays too much attention to it, it will lead to problems.
"Overall, the progress is pretty good, but this is the first time we have cooperated with such companies and breeding farms in Hanchuan, so there are still quite a risk. For our grassroots governments, enterprises, and farmers, it still needs a process of exploration."
Yuan Chenggong stroked his jaw, "Zhengyang, do you think the prospects for the construction of this milk source base are really as good as predicted?"
Sha Zhengyang was stunned and then said, "Secretary Yuan, are you a little worried?"
"Realistically speaking, Nestlé is an internationally renowned enterprise. If an agreement is signed, the risks of farmers will indeed be reduced a lot. But this is a market economy after all, and the prices of fresh milk will follow the market. What should Nestlé cannot digest it? The agreement is signed every year. If the price drops in the second year, what should farmers do?"
Sha Zhengyang felt a little moved. It seemed that he had underestimated Yuan Chenggong's rationality and awareness. Based on this, it means that Yuan Chenggong, a county senior official, is still qualified and did not let him lose his bottom line because of some other factors.
"Secretary Yuan, it is impossible to say that there is no risk at all. The market economy itself has risks. We can only say that we can help farmers reduce risks as much as possible. As you said, Nestlé is an internationally renowned company. I believe that with the development of China's economy, the demand for mid-to-high-end dairy products and food will become increasingly large, and Nestlé's product sales will also increase day by day. So at present, the possibility that Nestlé cannot digest it is relatively small."
Sha Zhengyang seriously revealed his views on the construction of milk source bases.
"Of course, we can also consider introducing some other food companies that use fresh milk as raw materials after the scale of the milk source base continues to expand. It is a way to share risks."
After a meal, Sha Zhengyang felt that the persuasiveness of his words was not enough, and said: "In fact, many of Kraft's products also have a demand for fresh milk. Pepsi's oatmeal porridge, oatmeal and other products also require fresh milk as raw materials. Some small and medium-sized food companies have a great demand for fresh milk when making cheese, bread cakes, butter, condensed milk and other products. Therefore, as long as our food industry continues to grow bigger and stronger, we should consider more about whether our farmers can produce enough fresh milk to meet the needs of the company. This has not yet been considered as the daily demand for ordinary people to drink fresh milk as the people's lives improve."
Yuan Chenggong let out a sigh of relief, leaning his body backward to a larger angle, making his body more relaxed.
"Zhengyang, it seems that you are very optimistic about the future development of our Zhenyang and even our province and our country. I noticed that you mentioned the daily demand for ordinary people to drink fresh milk. You think this will become a habit. Well, from the moment, even if urban residents want to develop this habit, it will be a little far away, right? And it will be a little extravagant, right?"
The breeders raise dairy cows to make a living. Their current goal is to sell fresh milk to companies like Nestlé. It cannot be said that they are not available for fresh milk to be used as a supply of fresh milk to citizens, but in Wanzhou, there is probably no such trend and habit.
Sha Zhengyang was also a little surprised by Yuan Chenggong's words, and the other party's thoughtfulness touched him a little.
"Secretary Yuan, many phenomena that we still find difficult to accept now may be used to in a few years. Just like household contracts and township enterprises, it was unacceptable more than ten years ago, but now it has become a matter of course. Foreign-funded enterprises and private enterprises have only been around us for a few years, and the living standards of the people around us are also changing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Therefore, I think sometimes even if we use our imagination as much as possible, it still cannot catch up with the changes in this era."
Sha Zhengyang's tone was filled with sighs and feelings, which also aroused Yuan Chenggong's resonance.
"Yes, maybe my worries are unnecessary. As you said, Chinese people may develop the habit of drinking milk. If the storage problem can be solved, I am afraid that this trend habit will become more popular." Yuan Chenggong nodded, "Zhengyang, since you have confidence in this area, then do it boldly, I support you."
Finally, after waiting for this sentence, Sha Zhengyang let down a big stone in his heart.
It is not easy to say "I support you".
This is not just a matter of supporting oneself in the construction of a milk source base, but a final approval of oneself and even endorsement of a series of actions over the past two months.
With Yuan Chenggong's attitude, Sha Zhengyang can boldly carry out his work according to his own ideas and wishes. No matter in industry, investment promotion, or agricultural ideas, there will be no obstacles.
If so, Yuan Chenggong would help him stand up and sweep it away.
Of course, Sha Zhengyang also knew that he also needed to give decent results in return, all of which was based on the premise of bringing enough positive impact to Yuan Chenggong.
Sha Zhengyang is full of confidence in this.
The past life proved that Nestlé's success in the domestic market, and Kraft was not inferior. Now that Pepsi enters the market, it will bring real benefits to farmers in the construction of Zhenyang milk source base, vegetable base, trading wholesale market and potato base.
If the only variable Huatai air conditioning project can also be successful, then at least Zhenyang's performance this year will be enough to shine. I believe it can meet Yuan Chenggong's requirements.
