Chapter 1,285 Unintentional and Remarkable Achievements
After staying in Urumqi for one night, Wu Hao, Yang Fan and others immediately took a bus with Xu Xiaoya to the Second Division's station in Tiemen.
After several hours of driving, Wu Hao and the others finally arrived at Iron Gate again.
Those who came to greet them were Zhong Xiaoling, the general manager of Shale Farm, and Du Xiuming, the person in charge of the intelligent unmanned farm project.
Zhong Xiaoling was originally the deputy manager in charge of Asia at DM, one of the world's four largest grain merchants and the largest rice merchant. Later, she resigned and ran away because of discrimination within the company.
Later, through the talent introduction plan, he joined Haoyu Technology, and on the recommendation of Wu Hao, he became the general manager of Shale Farm, responsible for the operation and management of Shale Farm.
Also coming to greet them was Du Xiuming, an acquaintance of Wu Hao and Xu Xiaoya, the person in charge of the intelligent unmanned farm project.
Du Xiuming has been engaged in research on intelligent unmanned farm technology in the past few years. Although he is engaged in multiple projects, he is particularly concerned about Shale Farm. After all, this is the first intelligent unmanned farm he has worked on.
The farm is of great significance, so he leads the team here for a lot of time throughout the year.
He was originally responsible for the construction project of an urban intelligent unmanned three-dimensional farm in a coastal city. He knew that Wu Hao and the others were coming, so he came here in advance to prepare.
Mr. Wu, Mr. Xu, and Mr. Yang, welcome to our Shale Farm. Du Xiuming, who was slightly put on weight, said warmly to them.
When Wu Hao saw this, he couldn't help but smile and joke: "I'm telling you, boy, I've heard that you flew over from the coast to greet us."
Haha, Du Xiuming laughed when he heard what he said and said, "Of course I have to come back. You and Mr. Xu are here to inspect the results of our work this time. Can I not come back to greet you?"
Haha, I said you are probably afraid that we will come to check your work, so you are so frightened that you come back early to prepare, and then use deceit to deal with us. Wu Hao said to Du Xiuming, while looking at Xu Xiaoya and others.
Hehehehe...
After everyone else heard what he said, they all laughed.
When Du Xiuming heard this, he smiled calmly and said, "Look at what you said, am I that kind of person?
The sun outside is quite harsh. Let’s not stand here stupidly and get in the car first. It’s still some distance from our farm.”
After hearing Du Xiuming's words, everyone nodded immediately and got in the car. The vehicle began to drive on the asphalt road.
Compared to the desolate desert company we passed through before, although Iron Gate is in the center of the desert, after decades of construction by the Second Division, it has already changed its appearance and has become a veritable desert oasis.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, Wu Hao smiled and said: "It has changed a lot since I came here a few years ago."
"Yeah, the changes are really big. I remember there weren't those buildings before, and there weren't such vehicles either." Xu Xiaoya nodded and said.
Du Xiuming and Zhong Xiaoling looked at each other, then smiled and explained to everyone: "The rapid changes here are inseparable from our Shale Farm and intelligent unmanned farm projects."
Oh, what should I say? Everyone couldn't help but look at Du Xiuming, wanting to hear his explanation.
Du Xiuming faced everyone's gaze and replied with a very calm smile: "That's right. Since our intelligent unmanned farm project achieved initial success, this Shale Farm has become a hot spot for many self-driving tourists."
A place to check in.
As for the Tiemen local area, they saw that this business opportunity was good, so they took a number of measures to attract tourists from other places.
The high-rise buildings you just saw are newly built hotels, shopping malls and other facilities to facilitate tourists to come and play. Now, come to Tiemen to play, visit intelligent unmanned farms, and ordinary green and pollution-free food have become
It’s a unique attraction in Xijiang.”
"What, are there many tourists?" Wu Hao couldn't help but ask.
A lot. Last year, the entire Iron Gate received nearly two million tourists. This result ranks among the top among all cities in Western Xinjiang.
so many people?
Hearing this number, Wu Hao, Xu Xiaoya and others couldn't help but be surprised. They originally thought that there would be only two to three hundred thousand people at most, but this was almost enough.
Unexpectedly, there were nearly two million tourists here throughout the year, which is too much.
Haha, this is all the result of Tiemen’s local publicity efforts. Du Xiuming said with a smile.
Xu Xiaoya, who was on the side, couldn't help but ask after nodding: "Are you saying that Tiemen is using our intelligent unmanned farm as a gimmick to attract tourists to visit?
So if so many people come to visit, will it have any impact on the daily operation of Shale Farm?"
Sure enough, she is a strong woman in the business world and she can see the crux of the problem at a glance.
Hearing this question, Zhong Xiaoling quickly shook her head and explained: "The influx of a large number of tourists must have caused us some trouble at first.
Some of these tourists are of poor quality and constantly discourage us. Then they break into our farm, trample on seedlings, pick some fruits and vegetables, and even block the operation of our intelligent unmanned mechanical equipment.
Later, we will negotiate with the local leaders of Tiemen and strengthen the management of the farm.
On the one hand, Tiemen local authorities organize personnel to manage and discourage these tourists. On the other hand, we have also strengthened control and patrols.
We have also set up an electronic fence on our farm. As long as someone breaks into the farm without authorization by crossing the electronic fence, we will know immediately, and the drones patrolling nearby will go to evict them in time.
After taking these measures, the situation is much better now. Although there are still some intruders who do not listen to dissuasion occasionally, they will not affect the operation of the intelligent machinery and equipment in the farm."
Speaking of this, Zhong Xiaoling took a breath and then continued: "In addition, the arrival of so many tourists is also a good opportunity for our Shale Farm.
Many of the agricultural products produced on our farm are purchased directly by these tourists.
Originally, all agricultural products produced on the farm, whether vegetables, fruits, or cash crops such as grain, were packaged directly and shipped directly to inland and coastal provinces through green logistics channels.
It's just that the tourists came to inquire about the purchase and had a strong desire to buy. In addition, coupled with the request from the local people in Tiemen, they believed that this move could boost the local economy and consumption in Tiemen.
So we thought about it again and again, and finally decided to open a window to provide these tourists who come to travel with direct purchase.
In fact, the price sold through this window is much higher than our supply price, which has not brought any losses to the farm, but has brought a good income."
