Chapter 1687: Each Has His Own Plan
"Do you make grain and food?" After talking about some high-tech things, Yang Dongxu came up with another project.
"What kind?" Lai Tianqing asked.
Compared to high-tech chips or automobiles, he actually prefers down-to-earth traditional industries. For example, minerals, oil, agricultural products and the like.
It is true that these things occupy a large base and capital, and the profit margin is not large, but because the profits are not large and the risks are relatively small, it is very problematic.
“Many types can be made, such as Vietnamese rice, Thai rice, long rice from India, non-GMO soybeans from Europe and the United States, bananas and pineapples from the Philippines, or deeply processed ham, soybean oil, and flour.
Or red wine, beef, Australian lobster, caviar, or even our country’s beer, etc. In short, there are many items for you to choose from. Yang Dongxu said.
"Why do you think of doing this?" Li Yihang had a surprised look on his face.
In fact, he was not the only one who was surprised, Zhu Henyi, Qian Liang and others were also surprised.
After all, what kind of business has Yang Dongxu done over the years?
Dongxu Technology has various top technologies, and even works with the military industry on various heavy industries and machine tools.
Rising Sun Technology standard Internet companies, hurricane construction and other real estate booms, even Haina, seem to cultivate artists, but in fact they use capital to build various platforms. In short, when these industries are mentioned, they give people a sense of loftiness and awesomeness. The feeling of breaking up.
Now they suddenly say that they want to sell rice and ham sausages. It always feels weird, like a tall and handsome guy wearing a straw hat and rolling up his trousers to pick up excrement.
"Pay attention to people's livelihood and food safety." Yang Dongxu said.
Yu Feihong rolled his eyes directly.
Yang Dongxu glared at him angrily. No one would believe the truth these days. So he could only speak.
“I have consolidated the foundation of my business territory, and I have been continuously enclosing land around the world in the past few years. In addition to growing traditional Chinese medicine and corresponding breeding, I am also engaged in agricultural planting.
In short, they are following the route of those consortiums in Europe and the United States. They not only want to engage in high technology, build high-end Fortune 500 companies, develop modern Internet and so on, but also extend their hands to some basic industries.
For example, the owners of the consortium each have large areas of land, forests, and various protected areas in their hands. This is equivalent to buying yourself first-hand insurance.
For example, no matter how big the Internet bubble blows, how turbulent the financial market is, or whether there is a crisis in the world economy. Land, forestry, and food are all there, and they are strong in the face of any financial crisis, just like gold in currency. "
"It is indeed more reliable to use these underpinnings to avoid risks than to use other things. After all, this thing will not depreciate significantly, but does it take up too much money and time?
After all, agricultural products are seasonal. Most of the things grown out of season are sold directly to the market and are not used for further processing. This reduces another profit point. Qian Liang said.
"It's a bottom line. If the gross profit is too high, the risk will also rise. This is to exchange a large amount of cash for a stable income. If you want to achieve a rate of return of more than 5%, it is basically impossible.
The approximate rate of return is not even 1%. I use it to stabilize the basic market. Or maybe you just think that I have too much money and no place to invest.
Earning interest in the bank is equivalent to losing money, so it is better to use it to build these basic industries to preserve value. In fact, investing in agricultural products, or investing in land and forest farms, is originally used to preserve the value of assets. "Yang Dongxu shrugged.
"If you want to follow me, you can follow me, or you can look into the deep processing of agricultural products, such as the ham sausages and beer mentioned by Xuzi. As for the grains and soybeans that require more investment, you don't have to invest in them." Qing said.
Compared with Qian Liang and others who believe that the higher the yield, the better. When it comes to Laijia, it is natural that things are more stable, the better.
Just like Yang Dongxu said, I have money but don't know where to spend it. Putting it in the bank means depreciation in a different direction. It is better to invest in agricultural products.
In short, it doesn’t matter how much money you make, as long as you protect your capital and prevent assets from depreciating due to inflation.
And if you do this on a large scale, you can actually make money every year. But if you do other industries such as real estate, finance, etc., you may invest 100 million and it can even double in a year.
If you invest 100 million to do this, you may not earn even 1 million a year. But if you invest 1 billion, or even 10 billion, the profits will increase with small profits but quick turnover.
At the same time, although the price of rice, soybeans, etc. can fluctuate at most by a few cents, and usually only by a few cents, it is difficult for prices to fluctuate greatly unless there is a major disaster like a global drought or flood.
But the profits in the deep processing market of agricultural products such as ham, soybean oil, and beer mentioned by Yang Dongxu are still pretty good. Otherwise, if you look at Shuanghui, wouldn’t they make billions every year?
Although the investment is very large, once the scale is increased, the profits are still considerable. It is naturally the best thing to be able to make profits while preventing asset depreciation.
Of course, the most basic import and export of grain trade, whether it is ham sausage, instant noodles, or soybean oil, is a highly processed agricultural product that is more risky to operate than basic grain.
After all, risk and profit are directly proportional. Unlike food prices, which are just there, rising and falling prices are of no significance.
If you don't run ham sausage, instant noodles, etc. well, and the brand and scale can't be established, it's normal to lose a few hundred million in the end. In short, if you want to make more money, you must take risks.
"I'll invest with you. This is not as vain as finance, and it's easy to get through my grandfather's side." Wang Gang said.
Obviously, this is not going to invest with personal funds, but to bet on the family.
The reason why I made this decision so decisively is actually not related to whether this relationship makes money or not. The main thing is to further bind with Laijia and Yang Dongxu.
After all, this project has been talked about, and the low profit is better than stability.
So even if you invest more money, even if you don't make much money, you won't lose money. Naturally, you can follow it without pressure, and you don't need to go home to ask, you know that your grandfather and father will not have any opinions.
"I'll follow suit. It's basically unrealistic to kill other brands and achieve big profits in the smartphone industry in a short period of time, so it's okay to be steady and there's no pressure on funds.
As for the live broadcast of the internet celebrity I've been playing recently, as well as the game team, it's only a few dollars a year, not to mention that this thing is still making money and doesn't require too much investment. Instead of letting the idle money sit in the bank and gather dust, it's better to follow suit." Yu Feihong said.
Lai Tianqing's family has now reached the top of an industry, so it needs low-key stability. Yu Feihong's side is similar, although it's a bit lower than his side.
But because of the gap in the family's high-level personnel, he can't play too much. After all, you've made so much money that people are jealous. If you still jump like this, aren't you asking for trouble?
So for a stable and low-key project like this, it's okay to follow suit.
"I'll forget it. You two big guys with nowhere to spend money, one is a former yamen who plays a lot but needs to stay out of the limelight. My situation is different from yours. My family is still waiting for rice to cook, so I need high returns." Zhu Hengyi said with a smile.
Yu Feihong glared at him angrily. The outdated yanei who played around was obviously referring to him.
Of course, this was just a joke between friends, not a mockery. Besides, even if he was an outdated yanei, if you feel that the low-key Yu family is easy to mess with, you can show off your strength and try. You will definitely be surprised.
Do you really think that his father has been away from Hainan for so long, but he still controls the import and export of small commodities in Hainan. Yu Feihong, who has a voice in the small commodity market of tens of billions of US dollars a year, is a vegetarian?
"Forget it, I am more short of money than Brother Zhu." Qian Liang also waved his hand.
In fact, he is the one who likes to take risks and bet on big returns the most among those present. The stable import and export trade of agricultural products is completely opposite to his purpose of making money, so it is normal for him not to join.
"Then I won't get involved. Even if I put all my money in, it won't make much bubble, so I won't join in the fun." Li Yihang said immediately.
Although he is now worth tens of billions, it is basically fixed assets. For example, this huge villa accounts for about one-third of his total assets.
The remaining two-thirds are all shares of various projects in cooperation with the people present. He can't take the villa or these shares to get a bank loan to pursue the agricultural product project, right?
If it is according to what Yang Dongxu and Lai Tianqing said, this project is used to preserve value with a very low rate of return, and it will be a problem whether the loan interest can be paid back at that time.
After all, the loan interest is much higher than the deposit interest.
"Okay, we will do this project. If we create a few brands, don't be jealous when we make money." Yang Dongxu said with a smile, which was obviously a joke.
Even if his project makes money, the benefits are extremely low compared to the invested funds, and Qian Liang and others will not be jealous.
According to the personal connections and investment channels of these people, they will make more money with the same investment cost at that time.
After the big things were discussed, the people present talked to each other in twos and threes.
Qian Liang approached Yu Feihong, "Tell me more about your live streaming and gaming team. When you told me about it before, I didn't pay much attention to the project of going abroad to set up an iron ore mine."
They are all people who love to play. Whether it is live streaming or gaming team, it is so novel and interesting. It is fun and profitable. This is very attractive to Qian Liang.
Or it is okay to have fun without making money. Qian Da Shao will just take a few million for entertainment. The money for a sports car is nothing to him. This little money can make Qian Da Shao have fun. He feels it is worth it.
"If you invest a small amount of money to play, then find a few good anchors to promote them and you can basically get back the money and make some money.
If you want to invest more, then invest millions like me to set up a gaming team. If you achieve results, you can basically get back the money.
If you want to play bigger, then take advantage of the fact that many technology companies have launched new live streaming platforms and invest as a shareholder. When the platform is established, you will make a lot of money." Yu Feihong said.
"How many millions does it cost to run a team?"
"The team itself is not worth much, the players and coaches, even if they are all-star players and shackles, the annual maximum is two million. But the operation costs money, such as copying the fame of the team players on the Internet, and finding a platform to buy the popularity and recommendations of the players during live broadcasts.
After such operations, if your team can achieve results, then the team players will basically become star players, and their live broadcasts alone can make you pay back, and the team's advertising endorsements are pure profit.
But whether it is buying news hot searches or hot recommendations on live streaming platforms, this thing is very expensive, and it is not enough to buy it once or twice. You have to make frequent noises and at least make yourself familiar, right? "
Yu Feihong, who has been playing for a while, can be said to be familiar with these operations.
