Chapter 1,294 You cant put all your eggs in one basket
There have been many examples in the past where a company went bankrupt, and many of its upstream companies were greatly affected or even went bankrupt.
This is the risk of over-reliance, so you must always be cautious.
After hearing his words, Du Xiuming and Zhong Xiaoling immediately nodded to express their understanding.
Du Xiuming said, "Don't worry, we will follow our own pace and not be influenced by others."
Zhong Xiaoling on the side also said: "I will pay close attention to the market dynamics and will never let them lead us by the nose.
And if possible, we don’t want to hang ourselves on a tree and develop more partners, which is in line with our own development interests.”
Hearing Zhong Xiaoling's words, Wu Hao smiled and said: "This is one of the reasons why I didn't agree to Xu Xiaoya. I can't put all the eggs in one basket. Otherwise, if the basket accidentally falls to the ground, all the eggs will be broken.
What we have to do is to put eggs in different baskets, and be more flexible, so that even if there is a problem in one basket, it will not affect the eggs in other baskets.
Aren't Moudong and Pin Xixi coming to your door now? You can boldly contact them.
If Xu Xiaoya has an objection, blame it on me and I will deal with her."
Thank you, Mr. Wu! The two of them quickly thanked each other. Wu Hao's words were very clear, which meant he was going to put pressure and trouble on them, which inevitably made the two of them moved again.
Zhong Xiaoling quickly showed a worried look: "If A knows that we are cooperating with other platforms, will they terminate their cooperation with us and choose other farms to cooperate and compete with us?
Even suppress us."
In response, Wu Hao smiled and waved his hand and said: "You don't have to worry about this, they can't stop cooperation with other platforms, and they have been prepared for it.
At the beginning of our cooperation, I told them very clearly that we could not only cooperate with them, as this would not be in our interests.
So in this regard, you don’t need to worry at all, just talk about it with confidence and boldness.
As for whether they will terminate the cooperation, you don't have to worry about this. As long as the quality of our agricultural products remains stable and high-quality, they will not be able to completely abandon us and choose other partners and suppliers.
Moreover, the brand of our farm has already been established. It would be very wise for them to terminate it at this time. They would not be so stupid.
Not only will they not, but they will also rush to cooperate with us, and even take the initiative to improve cooperation conditions and compete with other platforms.
Of course, they will not only cooperate with us, which is the same reason that we will not only cooperate with them.
They will also select and cultivate new partners and partners, thereby reducing our need for them, and even completely replacing us when necessary.
Of course, you don’t have to worry, as long as the core technology is in our hands, we don’t have to worry about what they will do.”
"Yes, as long as the core technology is in our hands, we don't have to be afraid of them." Du Xiuming also smiled.
This is indeed their biggest reliance. With intelligent automated unmanned farm technology, they can greatly reduce planting and production costs, thereby supplying the market at more favorable prices.
This is something other farms and growers cannot do, let alone compete with.
With this technology, they can continue to expand the scale of planting, and they can also cultivate scientifically and maintain the same quality of these agricultural products, fruits, vegetables, grains and oils, which is something other grower farms cannot do.
Seeing Zhong Xiaoling also nodded, Wu Hao slowed down and said: "Of course, I don't want you to fall out with them immediately.
After all, we are still in the stage of close cooperation, and it is not appropriate to get too tense. After all, we still have to cooperate.
Although she is in business, Xu Xiaoya is still a good person, and we cannot make her look too ugly, making it difficult for her to do business after she returns.
So, you have to learn to respond flexibly."
Having said this, Wu Hao lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said to the two of them: "In this case, she came here to ask our farm to expand the scale of planting and production. You can agree to her as appropriate.
I heard that our pure pressed sunflower oil is quite popular in the market. If this is the case, let’s be a favor and expand the sunflower planting area appropriately.”
"It is very popular. The retail price of our pure pressed sunflower oil is more expensive than ordinary sunflower oil. The most popular 5L sunflower oil on the market retails at 189.
Above, this is twice that of ordinary sunflower oil. Even so, the supply exceeds demand, and our new oil was sold out as soon as it was launched. Not only the platform, but also retailers are urging us.
Therefore, it is no problem to appropriately expand the planting scale and increase the yield." Zhong Xiaoling nodded towards Wu Hao and said.
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this, and then told Zhong Xiaoling: "The price must be strictly controlled and cannot be too high, otherwise it will have some adverse effects.
Especially when it comes to grain and oil, you must be extra cautious.
Furthermore, in terms of quality, we must ensure that the quality does not change in any way after increasing production. You must remember that word of mouth is always the best way for us to defeat our opponents.
Especially in terms of grain, oil and food, which are related to people's lives, this advertisement plays a very small role and relies on word of mouth.
Once the public recognizes our product, our product will be quickly accepted by the public through word-of-mouth effect and spread for free. This is much more useful than any advertisement.
More importantly, once they recognize and accept the brand, they will become our stable source of customers and will not change easily."
In this regard, you can rest assured that quality issues have always been the top priority of our work. And we all use automated production, so the quality can be consistent. Du Xiuming assured Wu Hao.
Okay, then I'll see how you perform. Wu Hao smiled and nodded.
But how much improvement is good? Du Xiuming couldn't help but ask.
After raising this question, Du Xiuming and Zhong Xiaoling immediately looked at Wu Hao.
Wu Hao smiled when he saw this and said, "I said I won't interfere with you. It's up to you to make your own decision."
Hearing his words, Zhong Xiaoling nodded slightly and thought for a moment, then said: "It is not appropriate to expand too much at once. In this case, let's expand another 50,000 acres. This will just make 150,000 acres, which is 10,000 acres."
hectares of sunflower growing area.
In this way, we will also have an explanation to Mr. Xu outside."
After hearing Zhong Xiaoling's words, Wu Hao immediately showed a smile: "This way, it will be easier for me to speak."
