MTL - Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981-Chapter 56 drop a melon

   Chapter 56

   Now that the domestic economy has not yet developed, there is no country behind Yang Chen to rely on, everything can only rely on himself.

   As for the Hong Kong government, everything has to obey the orders of the British government before returning.

   And three of the four major grain merchants are affiliated to the United States. Once the four major grain merchants work together to surround him, who can defeat the power of the four major grain merchants?

   Even the governments of many countries need to compromise with the four major grain merchants, not to mention his small role that has not yet grown up.

   The only thing Yang Chen can do now is to complete the layout before the four major grain merchants reach out to Xiangjiang.

   As long as the sales channels and sources of goods in the Xiangjiang market are in his hands, then the other party will not want to intervene.

   Today, the daily necessities of millions of citizens in Hong Kong are basically provided by the inland government behind them.

   In this way, it provided Yang Chen with a huge opportunity.

   As long as he can get in touch with the country and further enter into cooperation, then he will have the opportunity to control the necessities of life for the people of Hong Kong.

As for whether the country is willing to cooperate with him, Yang Chen is not worried at all, as long as he releases the news of the four major grain merchants to the inland government, I believe that with the country's huge machine, the old bottom of the four major grain merchants will be impossible. How long will it be placed on the table of a great man in the country.

   Regarding the issue of Xiangjiang, during this time period, China has never let down its vigilance, and it is impossible for the country to watch foreign companies step by step to overshadow Xiangjiang’s dependence on the inland.

  If the country is wary of the four major grain merchants, maybe they will fully support Yang Chen in the confrontation with the four major grain merchants.

   At this time, China has just started to reform and open up, and it is still very vigilant against foreign investment.

   If it is a general industry, it will be fine, but once the necessities of life such as grain and oil are controlled by foreigners, there is no need to say much about the consequences.

   Of course, if he wants to cooperate with China, the premise is that he has the capital to cooperate with the other party.

  Otherwise, if you don’t even have qualifications, then everything will be nothing but a basket of water, and others will be cheap for no reason.

   This is one of the main reasons why he plans to enter the retail industry next.

   There is no sales channel, even if he has something in his hand, he can't sell it.

  Without sales channels, how does his little shrimp compete with the big crocodile for food?

  Retail and factory, two in one, everything is self-sufficient.

  Only under this premise, it is possible to withstand the pressure of the four major grain merchants, which is why the domestic grain industry in later generations was not captured by the four major grain merchants.

   With the national power behind the escort, even if the four major grain merchants are powerful, they cannot run amok in the country where food is self-sufficient.

   Only by withstood the pressure, can we compete with the four major grain merchants in the grain and oil market and get a share of it.

   In later generations, the old beauty held high economic sanctions every day. Think about those countries that were disgraced by the old beauty. It was not that they could not be self-sufficient in food.

  Once the US imposes economic sanctions, the price of all kinds of food will skyrocket for the sanctioned party.

   The consequence of rising food prices is that people are overwhelmed and their lives are greatly affected, which in turn causes social unrest.

   This is also the reason why the four major grain merchants can finally quietly invade other countries and control the prices of grain and oil in other countries.

  The main reason why governments of various countries have tacitly agreed not to speak out is that they do not want to cause tension among the people.

   After all, their countries cannot be self-sufficient in grain and oil, and can only rely on imports. Once the four major grain merchants are angered, the people will have no food to eat.

   And once the people are hungry, the unfortunate is not the four major grain merchants, but the government, because the government is incompetent.

   This is the general psychology of the people.

   There are not many such things, especially in some democracies.

   This is why it is said that whoever controls the food controls the human race.

  Why is the old United States still able to sanction other countries after de-industrialization? Can the U.S. dollar still circulate around the world?

  A powerful military is one aspect, and so is oil, but none of them can match the influence of food.

   No one can fight against the old and the United States on an empty stomach. As long as food prices continue to rise, the economy will inevitably be affected. Once the economy is affected, the country will be in turmoil.

   In this way, the old beauty can make those disobedient countries cry their fathers and mothers without a single shot.

  Like those countries in Africa, why did the country not help them develop the economy at first, but provide food relief continuously?

  What kind of poor wars in Africa are not good for profit, only lose money, and the old and the United States don't care about it. After all, where the economy is underdeveloped, oil is not as important as water, what is there to play with them?

   It is said that the four major grain merchants control 80% of the global grain industry, but no one will forget that among the four major grain merchants, three grain merchant groups are controlled by Laomei.

   Rather than saying that the four major grain merchants control the global grain and oil market, it is better to say that the United States controls the global grain and oil market.

   After all, three fights one, the last one is not obedient, how can I play happily with the other three?

  Obviously, if you are united, you will live, if you are apart, you will die. Everyone understands this principle.

   Yang Chen wants to fight against the four major grain merchants in the future, or compete for the market. If there is no strong national support behind him, he will definitely not be able to do the combined fist of the four major grain merchants.

   Therefore, he must take control of the Hong Kong retail industry as soon as possible and master the sales port. Only in this way can he gain domestic support for him.

  Only with domestic support, can he further purchase domestic grains and enter the Asian market that has not been fully controlled by the four major grain merchants.

   Yang Chen felt an itch in his heart for the integrated group operation of the four major grain merchants.

  From distributing seeds to farmers, then selling fertilizers to farmers, purchasing grain from farmers, entering factories for various processing and production, and finally entering the market through its own transportation channels, one link and one link, fully integrated.

The    integrated development model makes it easier for the four major grain merchants to control grain prices and make profits from them.

   At the same time, it also controls the farmers, because once the farmers do not sell their food to them, then the next series of seed fertilizer purchases will be gone.

   Without these, how do farmers farm the land, how do they fertilize, and how do they sell their grain?

  Rely on the country?

  In a democratic country, everything is privately owned, and land is also privately owned, which can be bought and sold at will. As long as the four major grain merchants have money, they can buy a large piece of farmland.

   With farmland, farmers who rent crops are not so much farmers as workers of the four major grain merchants.

   Yang Chen also has an idea for this model, but his target is other Asian countries, not domestic.

   Besides, even if he wanted to, the country would never agree to him doing that, even if he was a Chinese.

   In the inland model, we can only adopt the business model of cooperation with the government, otherwise he will definitely let him know what it means to be "pain".

  What is called, 'what a deep understanding'.
