Rebirth starts with small money

Chapter 621 International Trade
Wang Yan stayed in Yanjing until the New Year's Day holiday, and then returned to her hometown, Erlong Town.

On New Year's Day, Chen Li even took a whole family to watch the flag-raising ceremony again.

No way~ Although Chen Li took his family to see it before, military bands do not appear every time the flag is raised.

Chen Li has always felt that if conditions permit, every Chinese person should actually go to the flag-raising ceremony.

The scene where people from all over the country gather in a square, and then these people who don't know each other sing the national anthem in unison. It really feels a little shocking.

And it's different from singing the national anthem at the opening of the sports meeting. It's hard to say how to describe Chen Li, but generally speaking, the sense of ritual between the two is completely different.

Anyway, Chen Li thinks that this kind of thing can really be experienced once when conditions permit.

Of course ~ in fact, Chen Li felt it more than once, but no matter which time ~ the shock brought to Chen Li still did not decrease, on the contrary, it became more and more intense.

As for the reason~ Chen Li is very clear. Of course it is because the motherland is gradually becoming more and more powerful.

For the same reason~ the stronger the motherland, the better the lives of the common people.

In his previous life, Chen Li didn't feel so strongly about this point in his own life.

But after being reborn once, Chen Li's feeling about it can be said to be vivid in his memory.

When Chen Li was reborn~ there were even people in Erlong Town who couldn't get enough to eat at home.

It's really the kind of food that can't get enough!
I only eat one meal a day, which is porridge and pickles, and sometimes I even eat the last meal~ but I don’t even know where the next meal will be.

But in the few years after Chen Li's rebirth, this kind of situation can't be said to have completely disappeared, but it is definitely very rare.

Maybe some families are still extremely poor for some other reason, but it is really rare to not have enough to eat.

For these children who grew up in the honeypot later, they may not feel so much about this kind of thing.

But in fact, even after 20 years, there are still many places on the earth that are still in the stage of not having enough to eat.

Our country can almost completely solve this problem in just a few decades. From this, we can actually see the strength of the motherland.

Of course ~ the strong revival of the motherland naturally needs a process, in 2000 this will be ~ no, now it should be said that it will be in 2001.

At this time in 2001, although Huaxia was recovering, its international reputation was not very high.

This point was personally experienced by Chen Li when he went to the island country to discuss cooperation with people.

Yes~ Not long after the time entered 2001, Chen Li went to the island country, intending to discuss formal cooperation with the people of the island country.

As for the cooperation project, of course it is ideal cow!

As we all know, islanders are famous for their love of beef.

Among the top meat dishes in the world, the status and price of Wagyu from the island country is even more frightening.

But in the second half of last year, this situation suddenly changed.

A kind of beef named Ideal Beef appeared in the high-end meat dishes in Huaxia. This kind of ideal beef has a quality that does not belong to or even surpasses Wagyu beef, but the price is only one-third of that of Wagyu beef in the island country.

In fact, at the beginning, both Ren Xiaobo and Wu Minyi, who joined later, had some objections to this pricing.

After all, it is definitely not a smart decision to set the price of Ideal Beef at such a low price when the quality is not inferior to that of Wagyu.

It's fine if it's just a short-term operation method, but it's obvious~ Chen Li just wants to "beat" this price down.

As for the reason he gave, it seems a little naive to Ren Xiaobo and Wu Minyi, but if you look closely, you can find that it seems a little "high"!
Because the reason given by Chen Li was to make the ideal cow's beef affordable for everyone.

Of course~ This kind of statement is more general. After all, even if the price of the ideal beef is "low", it is only for the island country and beef.

In fact, the beef price of Ideal Beef is still a high-end ingredient among domestic meat ingredients. The so-called ideal beef that everyone can afford is obviously unrealistic.

But~ this is the idea of ​​Wu Minyi and Ren Xiaobo, because their thinking is limited to this stage in 2000.

During this time period ~ Chinese people can't even have pork every day, let alone the ideal beef whose price is countless times higher.

The ideal beef produced by Ideal Ranch is divided into two types, namely Ideal No. 1 and Ideal No. 2.

The two benchmarks are actually the famous Australian Wagyu and the island country Wagyu. Although they are both Wagyu, there are actually very obvious differences in terms of price and meat quality.

To put it simply~ In fact, Australian Wagyu is more suitable for the tastes of Chinese people, while Wagyu from island countries. Well~ Well, in fact, the real Wagyu from island countries has never risen in China at all.

Don't look at a bunch of merchants in the past life who used the signboard of the island country and beef, but in fact China's ban on the island country's beef lasted almost until shortly before Chen Li's rebirth.

This also means that before that, there are basically only two sources of Wagyu from the island country in the domestic market.

One is smuggling over!After all, people who can afford the island country and cattle naturally don't care about being "slaughtered", and because these people are not afraid of being slaughtered, the high interests naturally make some people choose to take risks.

However, there are only a few sources of such channels, and that’s the reason~ Whether it’s people who don’t care about being “slaughtered” or the high price, the real island country Wagyu market is actually relatively limited.

And for the vast majority of people, the island country Wagyu they eat comes from the second channel copycats and fakes!
The two sound like the same thing, but they are not quite the same thing.

The so-called cottage actually means that many businesses pretend to be the so-called island country Wagyu with Australian Wagyu similar to the island country Wagyu.

Because although the price of Australian Wagyu is also expensive, it is still a bit lower than that of the island country.

And although this approach is also fraudulent, it can barely be regarded as more conscientious.After all, Australian Wagyu is also Wagyu, and the difference from the island country Wagyu is not as big as imagined.

So ~ if it's just a counterfeit, then consumers are at most being deceived, at least not so badly.

But another kind of "fake". That's another story.

Some lawbreakers use the so-called "high technology" to turn the original unattainable quality of beef into a kind of high-quality beef, so as to make profits in China.

And these people ~ for the sake of profit, basically have no bottom line.

In his previous life, Chen Li was fooled by this. At that time, a friend told him that he could get authentic Japanese beef, and the price was much cheaper than going to a store outside.

In fact, at this point, smart people can find the tricks, but Chen Li didn't think so much at that time.

There is no other reason~ In Chen Li's perception at the time, although the price of wagyu beef in the island country was high, it was mostly due to tariffs and the means used by the merchants to make profits.

And this made Chen Li fall into a very speechless trick, after all, he didn't even know that Huaxia was actually banning the import of beef from the island country at that time.

Because Chen Li had eaten island cuisine a few times, although he himself didn't particularly like it, but Chen Xue and his girlfriend at the time liked it quite a bit.

So without further ado, Chen Li placed an order with that friend, and then spent nearly 3000 yuan to buy a large piece of the so-called Daoguo Wagyu.

Then there is nothing more.

When Chen Li got the piece of Wagyu beef from the island country, the texture and pattern of the beef looked very beautiful. Chen Li even felt that the thousands of dollars was worth the money.

But when the beef thawed, Chen Li was instantly dumbfounded.

The originally beautiful Wagyu beef from the island country directly turned into a piece of rotten meat, and the originally beautiful marble pattern directly turned into a pool of blood.

At this time, Chen Li still didn't understand that he was being cheated. This was not some Japanese beef from an island country at all, and it was even very likely that it was smuggled sick and dead beef.

Of course, Chen Li could afford to pay the 3000 yuan, but the feeling of being deceived or even treated as a fool was very unpleasant.

At that time, Chen Li was scolded by his girlfriend and sister for a long time, so Chen Li was so angry!

But in the end, when he called his so-called "friend" to settle the accounts, he even canceled his mobile phone number.

This made Chen Li a little helpless!

There is no way~ Because of the work relationship, Chen Li's interpersonal relationship in his previous life was actually quite complicated.

To put it bluntly~ After staying in nightclubs for so many years, Chen Li has basically come into contact with all kinds of people.

Even though Chen Li in his previous life had a fairly accurate eye for seeing people, but he had contact with many people, he would always encounter situations of overturning.

Just like the buddy who lied to him that time, this buddy is actually not very capable, and his identity is even just a driver.

Chen Li knew him because this buddy brought his boss to Chen Li's nightclub at that time to spend many times.

It was precisely because of his identity as a driver that Chen Li really didn't doubt him at first.

After all, although he is only a driver, his boss's import and export business is quite large.

But in fact, when that guy fooled Chen Li, he had already been fired by his boss, but Chen Li didn't know the news.

In the end, there was no way. After all, no one could be found. Even if Chen Li reported the 3000 yuan to the police, the police probably would not be too concerned about it.

In the end~Chen Li could only suffer from this dumbness by himself.

But~ The chain reaction this incident brought to Chen Li was not so good. Anyway, Chen Li had never eaten the so-called Daoguo Wagyu since that time, even if it was Daoguo Wagyu in some high-end restaurants. The same does not stick.

Because as long as he sees this thing, Chen Li will think of the thawed appearance of the island country wagyu he bought in his previous life.

It is also for this reason that after Chen Li worked out the ideal cattle No. 1 and No. 2 from the system, his first thought was to bring the ideal cattle into the island market.

Of course~ this idea just passed through Chen Li's mind for a while.

Because Chen Li knew very well that this kind of thing was basically impossible.

The reason is also very simple. Chen Li learned from Xiaomeng that the beef produced by the system will be sold almost all over the world in the future, but it has suffered setbacks in the island country.

It's not that ideal cattle are not liked by people in the island countries. In fact, ideal cattle were very competitive with Japanese cattle in the island countries in terms of quality and price at that time.

It's just that this kind of cross-border trade sometimes doesn't look at the value attached to the commodity itself.

It is said that after the island country discovered that its Wagyu beef was threatened, the island country directly issued a ban on the import of beef produced by Shennong Animal Husbandry at that time.

In front of the state apparatus, the meaning of one or two commodities naturally becomes extremely small.

But even so, there are still many islanders who will choose to go to Huaxia to taste this delicacy that cannot be eaten in the island country.

It is said that on weekends, the restaurants in several coastal cities in the east of the country were crowded with islanders from the island country, and this beef dish became a must-eat food for the islanders after they came to China.

It is also for this reason that Chen Li received an invitation from Wu Minyi at the beginning~ to go to the island country to discuss with people about the export of ideal cattle. Very negative.

After all, he already knew the "result" in advance, and knew that it was difficult for the ideal cow to have any living space in the island country, so naturally he would not give any hope for it.

But Chen Li knew about this "result", but Wu Minyi and Ren Xiaobo didn't.

In the eyes of these two people, ideal cattle have the same quality as or even higher than Daoguo Wagyu, but the price is much lower than Daoguo Wagyu.

This also means that the ideal cow~ is definitely very attractive to islanders who like to eat beef.

And as long as the market of the island country is opened, the prospect of the ideal cow~ can be said to be bright!

So ~ after Wu Minyi took office, in addition to using the contacts accumulated before to help open up the market for ideal agricultural products, she put more attention on the island country market.

And the fact is just as Wu Minyi thought, when she brought the top ingredients of ideal agricultural products to her former customers, these products were quickly recognized by the market.

However, limited by the popularity of ideal agricultural products, it will take some time to fully open up the market.

But Wu Minyi is definitely very optimistic about the future of ideal agricultural products.

And just some time ago, a businessman from an island country who had cooperated with Wu Minyi before sent an invitation to her. The other party invited Wu Minyi to go to the island country to talk about the cooperation with Ideal Cow.

Wu Minyi didn't think much about it, and then went to talk, but after this conversation, Wu Minyi found that the other party's purpose was not that simple.

Because this time~ the opponent's goal is not just to import beef, but to put the goal on ideal cattle.

Yes~ It is an ideal cow, not an ideal beef!
In fact, when Wu Minyi first heard the news, she rejected the other party without thinking too much.

She's not stupid, so of course she wouldn't do this kind of thing.

But Wu Minyi never expected that after seeing the incident, this guy would go out of his way and directly cause a lot of trouble for Ideal Agricultural Products.

Naturally, it is impossible to hide this kind of thing from Chen Li, so there is this trip to the island country.
