Chapter 1394 The Great Business of Raising Chickens
"Gail, are you interested in raising chickens in Africa?"
After exchanging pleasantries, Yang Cheng sent out the invitation straight to the point. The main purpose of coming to the charity summit this time is to fool a billionaire from all over the world to go to Africa to raise chickens. How can such a promising career be done by himself? ?
Although Bill Gazi's gems are in front of him, it doesn't mean that he can't carry them forward.
Oprah has a huge influence in the entire western world, and even the whole world. In addition, her skin color has a natural affinity in Africa, so it is a very good move to pull her into a great cause. chess.
Of course, before Yang Cheng explained the matter clearly, Oprah was stunned, "Go to Africa to raise chickens?"
He stammered, "Did you invest in high-tech chicken raising technology?"
Yang Cheng quickly denied, "No, no, it's still for charity purposes. I saw an interview with Mr. Bill Gates before, helping Africans raise chickens to get rid of hunger and poverty. I think it is a feat."
This sentence is a bit insincere, but apart from him and Emma Watson, no third person in this world will know that the real purpose behind his so-called charity is just to make a girl smile.
Then, he briefly described the rough plan made by his subordinates during this period, "My first plan is to invest in 5-10 large-scale green parks in several countries in West Africa where the government is relatively stable and the law and order are relatively safe. The ecological farm, with chicken raising as the core, has created a breeding production chain in Africa.
You also know that the breeding industry requires a lot of labor. If it can help the local labor force, I believe the local ZF will definitely help us solve the problem of sales.
As long as the ecological farm generates profits, it proves the success of this model. Next, we can open the ecological farm to any region in Africa, and gradually help more poor people find jobs and drive local economic development. Only in this way can the root cause of poverty be solved. "
Oprah's expression gradually became serious, but she was still very cautious. She has been engaged in charity these years, and she has often encountered huge pits. Of course, she knew that Yang Cheng would not cheat her of money, but she still wanted to know more about it. make a decision.
Yang Cheng also came prepared, so naturally he would not panic, took a sip of champagne calmly, and said, "My team has already conducted preliminary investigations through the relationship with Africa, and preliminarily decided on the first ecological farm. The tropical jungle 150 kilometers away from Lagos, the largest city in Nigeria, is called 'Hope Farm' for short.
There are five or six kilometers away from the nearest village where people live, and the nearest ZF office is more than 10 kilometers away.
Tropical plants such as bananas, papayas, and palm trees grow in the jungle. It is said that there are wild pangolins and pythons, and bamboo rats as big as piglets can be seen everywhere. At least in the initial stage of construction, the construction site will not be short of meat. . "
Yang Cheng was half joking, Oprah is indeed a big name in the entertainment industry, and her innate entertainment spirit made her laugh out loud, "I want to live there for a few days, eating wild game is the best thing right now." popular pursuit."
"The project is approved, and we will definitely inspect it in person after it is completed. I sent people to consult the ZF of Ogun State, Nigeria, where the tropical forest belongs. They affirmed the possibility of foreign capital buying land. As far as agricultural land is concerned, they will not do anything to block it."
Oprah nodded thoughtfully,
"Although I have never raised chickens myself, I have also invested in a farm. I know that the first problem faced by building a chicken farm is the lack of electricity. You also said that the tropical jungle is far away from the town. How to solve the power problem?"
Yang Cheng said with a smile, "Ogun state government promised us to build power facilities for the farm.
The self-provided high-power diesel generator generates electricity continuously for 24 hours, which will not affect the demand of the farm.
In addition, near the land I am optimistic about, there is a simple road 7 or 8 kilometers long, which can directly lead to the Nigerian interstate highway, and beside the forest, there is a ready-made cultivated land with an area of about 5 hectares. We only need to send construction The team builds chicken coops, building office buildings, staff dormitories, canteens, warehouses and other hardware facilities.
The goal of the first phase of the chicken coop is to raise 60,000 hens. The eggs produced on the day are manually sorted and packaged according to size, and then moved to trucks for transportation. After getting on the right track, at least 30,000 hens can be produced every day. eggs.
Of course, this is just a drop in the bucket in the face of a blank market in Nigeria and even West Africa.
My ultimate goal is to build a large-scale chicken farm that can raise 250,000 hens in four phases, at least to ensure the monopoly of the market in Ogun State, and to radiate the surrounding areas.
The most important thing is that the large scale of the chicken farm also has an advantage. Those chicken manures that have nowhere to pile up are natural high-quality farmyard manure. bragos. "
Oprah showed a satisfied smile visible to the naked eye, but she still asked the question, "What about the drought problem? Africa has a long dry season every year."
Yang Cheng spread his hands, "Drilling deep wells, diverting water from forest lakes, there are many ways. In Africa, the cost of building these infrastructures is not high, and we can even introduce simple irrigation systems.
But considering that we need to solve the labor problem, we can also use artificial irrigation, although this will increase operating costs virtually, but our purpose is charity, isn't it? Profit is secondary to ensure the continuation of this charity model. "
"What about security?"
"Safety has two aspects, one is sanitation and safety, which is why I delineate the farm in the jungle area more than 100 kilometers away from the big city, where the population is sparsely populated, the situation of epidemic prevention is not so serious, and the food safety problem has been extremely resolved. Great protection.
As for personal and financial security issues, there is no way to get 100% guarantee in the whole of Africa. I can only say to improve as much as possible, such as hiring security guards, pulling up power grids and so on.
I believe that in the face of our huge investment, the local government will also pay attention to basic security issues, otherwise, who else can we expect to invest in them? "
Oprah didn't speak again this time, but was thinking about something quietly by herself. After 5 minutes passed, she looked at Yang Cheng and said very firmly, "I'm in, count me in, so interesting Meaningful charity, I must participate."
Yang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Once the first person is successfully attracted, there will be a second and a third. Moreover, Oprah's own influence can also attract more people to join in.
Even if one person invested 1 million, it was enough to support the start of the project, and Yang Cheng didn't need to pay any more.
