Chapter 339 Director Su is really talented in decorating the storefront!
Su Wenchen also knew that what Chen Guodong said was true.
At this time, foreign countries' application of chemical fertilizers was indeed more advanced and extensive than theirs, but this would lead to a higher degree of land degradation, and it seemed that the demand for alkali rabbit treatment would also be higher.
So he said it directly.
"Then Director Chen, it seems that the international market for our alkali-treated rabbit is quite promising."
Chen Guodong nodded.
"It's really impressive! Especially when the president is sure to have a corps of reporters filming him, which is like giving us free publicity."
"You must be prepared when the time comes. I feel that your potential in curing alkali rabbits will not be lower than that of the Moonlight Rabbits."
"However, the specific export issues are the responsibility of the Ministry of Foreign Trade. You will still have to communicate these issues with them when the time comes."
Su Wenchen also knew the main responsibilities of the Concierge Department, which was only responsible for itinerary arrangements and preliminary preparations.
But thanks anyway.
"Thank you, Director Chen, for your reminder!"
Chen Guodong shook his head.
"Don't even mention thank you or anything like that. I rushed over here to help you coordinate with various departments to resolve the issue in advance!"
When the jeep rolled over the last section of dirt road, it slowly stopped at the dormitory area built in front of the site.
Su Wenchen also got out of the car and said.
"Director Chen, our entire site is under construction now, and the dormitory area is all uniform residential buildings. I have to inconvenience you for a while."
Chen Guodong looked at the houses built of rammed earth in front of him and shook his head.
"As long as I have a place to live, what's wrong with that?"
After saying that, he followed his companions and moved the luggage into the house.
He spoke directly to Su Wenchen.
"Let's go!"
"Let's go take a look at the current display plans for your farm!"
Seeing this, Su Wenchen said directly.
"Director Chen, don't you want to take a break first?"
"Even if you're anxious, there's no need to rush for just a moment!"
Chen Guodong waved his hand.
"I've already rested on the plane. Let's go straight to your meeting room! The sooner we can confirm, the sooner we can prepare."
Seeing this, Su Wenchen didn't say anything more. After all, the other person didn't feel tired.
When he brought people back to the conference room, the leaders of various departments were still sitting close together, some flipping through notebooks, and some talking in low voices.
The windows of the conference room were wide open, and the ashtray on the table was full of cigarette butts. It was obvious that Su Wenchen had not said to adjourn the meeting, so everyone was waiting for him to come back.
Su Wenchen introduced directly.
"This is Deputy Director Chen Guodong of the Protocol Department. He will be working with us over the next period of time to guide us in completing this reception."
When Chen Guodong heard Su Wenchen's introduction, he immediately shook his head.
"Director Su knows I'm not up to the task. I can only check for any deficiencies and fill in the gaps, and do my best to assist you in completing this important reception mission."
After finishing speaking, Chen Guodong looked at the various words still left on the blackboard on the wall.
"Director Su, let's stop with all the politeness and get started!"
Su Wenchen didn't hesitate when he heard this.
"Well, Director Chen, please take your seats first!"
"Old Hou, please move back and leave a front-row seat for Director Chen and the others!"
After seeing Chen Guodong and a protocol officer accompanying him take their seats.
Su Wenchen said directly.
"Then let's continue the meeting."
"By the way, where were we just now?"
Hearing this, someone immediately flipped through the notebook and said.
"Director, you said you wanted to showcase our agricultural development from three perspectives, but you only mentioned our achievements in alkali treatment and the embodiment of circular agriculture."
Su Wenchen immediately remembered when he heard this.
"Then let me talk about the last aspect, which is the application of mechanized agriculture. In this regard, the West is actually ahead of us."
"So I think we should avoid direct comparison with the West in terms of large-scale mechanization."
"It's not a wise choice to use our weaknesses to challenge their strengths. Furthermore, they are the country with the most widespread agricultural mechanization. No matter how much we emphasize this aspect, we can't compare with them."
Below, Chen Guodong was writing something on the notebook and nodding slightly.
But he still asked later.
"Director Su, we've considered your question, but if I don't showcase our mechanization, what should we showcase?"
"You can't just say directly that we are still completely dependent on manpower!"
"Director Su, you might not know this, but just for their visit, the three major American television stations, CBS, ABC, and NBC, have already confirmed they will send senior reporters. Besides the talks with the dignitaries, they will also be filming everything else."
"With our help, they will also set up temporary satellite broadcasting equipment in Beijing for simultaneous live broadcast."
"This is the first time that our country has appeared in the eyes of ordinary people in the West in this way, even if we can't appear to be particularly advanced."
"But we can't just show our backwardness!"
Su Wenchen naturally knew what Chen Guodong meant.
Because this visit itself will bring about a soft confrontation between the ideologies of the two sides.
It is obvious that the United States is extremely confident at this time. Of course, as a world power, it is indeed strong in both technology and military.
In this case, it was naturally impossible for Su Wenchen to take advantage of their weaknesses to show them off.
So I explained it directly.
"Director Chen, I know what you mean. That's why I said we should avoid direct comparisons on large-scale group work."
"Instead, we will focus on mechanized agriculture and showcase our small-scale, practical agricultural machinery for small-scale cluster operations!"
"It emphasizes our efficiency gains in human-machine collaboration, rather than demonstrating progress towards automation and large-scale machine clustering."
There is a reason why Su Wenchen chose this direction. In this kind of large-scale agricultural cluster operation, even if he comes up with some new tricks, he can't compete with others at this time.
In addition, he knew that at that time, the United States had always had a habit of thinking that bigger was better and bigger was stronger in the mechanical industry.
Therefore, it has always been somewhat lacking in terms of miniaturization and practicality.
This was also the reason why Japanese cars took over our market share later due to the oil crisis.
When Chen Guodong heard Su Wenchen's words, his eyes lit up.
"Director Su, your idea is great. Don't compare yourself with others. Instead, focus on miniaturization and practicality."
"On the one hand, it is indeed adapted to our national conditions, and on the other hand, it will not be accused of copying others."
“And it also demonstrates our practical spirit of adapting to local conditions.”
As he spoke, he wrote it down in his notebook.
"I'll have to discuss this with the First Ministry of Machine Building to see if they have the kind of small, practical agricultural machinery you mentioned."
"I even think that if we don't have any, we can consider custom-making a few test machines for you based on your requirements."
"After all, everything is for the country!"
"This way, your farm will have all kinds of machines, which will be convincing enough!"
After writing it down in the notebook, he asked Su Wenchen again.
"Director Su, we weren't here earlier. I wonder if you could talk about the two exhibition directions you mentioned earlier."
Su Wenchen naturally would not refuse when he heard this. After all, this person is now equivalent to a boy who brings wealth.
This prevents them from asking for help from their superiors and automatically helps them to move things.
Because no matter whether it is the distributed agricultural machinery or various equipment, once it is in his hands, there is naturally no reason to return it.
Even the slogan was thought out for them.
So Su Wenchen started to introduce directly.
"The other two aspects are, first of all, the display of our alkali treatment results."
"In this regard, there is currently no precedent for a laboratory in the world that has successfully used microorganisms to treat alkali and participate in soil remediation projects."
"This is the core direction for us, but I think there will definitely be Western media questioning it."
"So we are initially planning to use multiple small-scale experimental plots to demonstrate our biological alkali treatment technology with our own eyes."
"However, our exploration of this strain of bacteria is actually only a very limited part at present."
"So in this regard we still need various electron microscope equipment, as well as the cooperation of researchers from the Institute of Microbiology."
"We will then need to conduct detailed experiments to see how large a plot of land should be selected to most intuitively and effectively demonstrate our technology."
Hearing this, Chen Guodong responded directly.
"Don't worry about the research station. Your application for a microbiology research station has been approved."
"Director Cai has already started coordinating various equipment."
"After all, microbial research requires sophisticated equipment, so a lot of preparation is required!"
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Since Director Cai has already started preparations, there won't be any problems in this regard."
“Finally, we will introduce our biogas project and the circular agriculture on our farm.”
Su Wenchen went to the blackboard and drew a simple circular arrow.
Straw → feed pigs → manure → biogas → fuel/fertilizer.
"This is the simple agricultural circulation system we have initially constructed."
"So, in terms of building large-scale biogas digesters, we still need support from above. It would be best if we could establish a full-chain mechanized processing method, so that when we display it to the outside world, we can also initially demonstrate some of our industrialization level."
"This will also mitigate our disadvantages in scale to a certain extent, and draw the attention of Western media from mechanical scale to environmentally friendly and circular agriculture."
“We can then directly declare that our main purpose is to promote the development of international circular agriculture, align with international environmental protection trends, and ultimately create green and environmentally friendly agriculture!
For Su Wenchen, the large-scale biogas digester project is not entirely for the benefit of their farm.
He actually knew very well that they could not compare with the United States in terms of large-scale agriculture.
If you want to demonstrate your advancement, you naturally have to find ways to do so in other ways.
After hearing Su Wenchen's words, Chen Guodong nodded frequently.
"That's a good idea!"
"And it's also consistent with the country's overall strategy. Aren't we encouraging the construction of biogas digesters everywhere?"
"And about that statement of yours, to be honest, I still don't understand it, but I just feel like it's pretty impressive."
Su Wenchen smiled but didn't say much.
He knew that this small biogas digester had great limitations, and given the current limited scale of aquaculture, it was actually not that convenient.
In fact, to put it bluntly, due to the limitations of construction level and supply of biogas equipment, circular agriculture is still a high-cost thing at present.
But for them, there is no such worry.
As the land here is gradually improved, the alfalfa planted can be harvested later, which will complement the improved white pigs he plans to introduce from the main farm.
There is naturally no need to worry about manure for biogas digesters.
Chen Guodong didn't know what Su Wenchen was thinking. At this time, he felt that Su Wenchen was truly a diplomatic talent.
He is very good at avoiding his own weaknesses.
These three display directions perfectly avoid their backwardness while still showing some highlights of their agricultural development.
In his opinion, combined with genuine biological alkali treatment technology, it is enough to deliver a satisfactory answer.
So after finishing the recording, he looked at Su Wenchen expectantly.
"Director Su, is there nothing left?"
Su Wenchen was speechless. Not yet?
He spent an entire afternoon thinking of these things, referring to some things from later generations, and integrating the resources they could mobilize at present.
Given the backward hardware conditions, it is already very good that we can build this modern agricultural display system with a certain international persuasiveness.
So no matter how much he is asked to think of a solution, he is actually powerless. After all, the development of agriculture also requires certain industries to support it!
And his major is animal husbandry, so he really tried his best.
So facing Chen Guodong's expectant look, Su Wenchen simply shook his head.
"These are our preliminary thoughts at the moment."
"Director Chen, if you have anything to add, please feel free to ask! We can discuss this further."
Hearing Su Wenchen say this, Chen Guodong knew that he was a little greedy.
The main reason was that before coming here, he didn't actually have much hope for this place.
But now it seems that they may be the most promising side, especially some of Su Wenchen's ideas.
This time he really learned a lot.
It is obvious that most places can only produce small agricultural machinery due to weak industrial capacity, but they are able to deliberately make it smaller and more practical according to the land and national conditions.
It is clearly intended to solve the fuel shortage, but it has been directly transformed into promoting the development of international circular agriculture, and it also needs to align with international environmental protection trends to create green and environmentally friendly agriculture!
Listen to this little word.
Anyway, as an agricultural layman, his introduction sounds very impressive and does not give people the impression that he is ignorant and backward.
Seeing that Su Wenchen asked him to add more, Chen Guodong felt that he had no room to add anything.
After all, its role is actually to replace some words and expressions that ordinary people may think are backward.
He actually didn't understand what the real agricultural display was, but he discovered it now.
Director Su is really talented when it comes to decorating the storefront!
After thinking about it, I could only say.
"I have nothing to add. Director Su, you have considered everything very thoroughly."
"It didn't resort to any easily exposed gimmicks, but rather successfully showcased the various bright spots in our country's agricultural development."
"I believe the higher-ups will definitely approve your proposal. As long as we successfully implement it, we'll have already exceeded the demonstration mission assigned to us."
Su Wenchen said with a smile upon seeing this.
"Thanks to Director Chen's kind words, we will cooperate with each other in the coming period to complete the implementation of various projects."
"Especially the biogas project, Director Chen will help coordinate it."
"As for the safety issue, I'd like to trouble Director Chen to check it out. After all, if something unexpected happens when we're receiving foreign guests, it would be a big problem."
Chen Guodong nodded and agreed directly.
"Don't worry, Director Su, I will help you coordinate this!"
Then the group continued to discuss the various details of the subsequent reception.
Then, as dusk fell, the long-lost lights in the farm meeting room came on.
The meeting hasn't ended yet.
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the door, and the door of the conference room was suddenly knocked, interrupting the discussion of the group of people.
"director!"
"Oh, so many cars!"
"And this time they were all military vehicles, all parked on the south side of our site, next to the drying yard."
"Director, please go and take a look!"
Hearing what the visitor said, Chen Guodong immediately slapped his forehead.
"Director Su, I was so engrossed in discussing this with you that I forgot about this matter. I didn't expect them to show up so quickly."
"Regarding the subsequent construction work of your sub-site, the engineering troops of the Jinling Military Region have been allocated to assist. They will help you complete the construction of the site as quickly as possible."
"I think we can ask them to help build the biogas project. We will definitely build it for you according to the highest standards."
"This way you can free up your energy to complete other reception work arrangements."
Su Wenchen blinked. He didn't expect there would be such a pleasant surprise. There would actually be military district troops to help them complete the construction work of the site.
In that case, the construction speed should be much faster.
So I just smiled and looked towards the half-dark sky outside.
"I didn't expect that the higher-ups would be so thoughtful this time, but this is really necessary for us!"
"Especially for the circular agriculture system we plan to demonstrate at the end, with the help of the engineering team, we can also be more assured of the quality issues."
"Director Chen, it's getting late. Let's call it a day!"
"If there are any follow-up issues, we will discuss it again."
"I have to go check on this side and settle our brother troops first. We can't let them sleep in the wilderness."
Chen Guodong also nodded.
"Okay, that's all for today. But Director Su, it's really nice to work with you. I feel like you'd be wasting your talent if you didn't become a diplomat."
"Your international perspective makes me feel ashamed of myself!"
Su Wenchen smiled and shook his head.
"I really don't deserve this. I feel I still need to learn more from Director Chen in terms of international perspective."
"The little knowledge I have is basically what I accumulated bit by bit after Yuehua Rabbit became involved in exports."
"That's right now. When we, Yuehua Rabbit, first went to the Canton Fair, we were new recruits and knew nothing."
Chen Guodong shook his head.
"That also shows that you have an outstanding learning ability. I really can't compare to you in this aspect."
Su Wenchen closed the notebook filled with writing and said with a smile.
"Okay, let's stop bragging here. I have to go make some arrangements for my comrades in the army."
"It would be really rude if they rushed over to help us but we couldn't even get a cup of hot water."
Chen Guodong also nodded.
"Director Su, please come over!"
"We just need to clean up the conference room."
Su Wenchen looked at the ashtray which was already full of cigarette butts after an afternoon of meetings.
There were even a lot of cigarette butts and ashes on the ground.
So he also said this to Yang Zhenye and Hou Guozhong.
"Lao Yang, Lao Hou, I'll leave this to you. Lao Ren and I will go outside to arrange for the comrades from the engineering corps."
After saying that, he left the meeting room with Ren Dachuan, who was in charge of logistics.
When Su Wenchen and his men rushed to the south drying yard with flashlights, it was already completely dark.
However, at this time, the entire southern drying yard was brightly lit by a long line of military vehicles, and a group of half-grown children were counting the military vehicles excitedly with burning eyes.
There were also several young female employees in short-sleeved shirts, looking around curiously from a distance.
Su Wenchen didn't pay much attention to these things, but looked at the thousands of soldiers with backpacks on their backs, who were divided into more than a dozen teams and sitting cross-legged in the drying yard.
I was also a little shocked. How many people came?
At this time, the team leader of a production team who originally lived next to the drying yard was also talking to an officer wearing a collar badge.
After seeing Su Wenchen coming.
He immediately ran over and shouted.
"Director, you're here. This is Commander Jiang Dayong of the Jinling Military Region."
After saying that, he quickly introduced himself to the other party.
"Captain Jiang, this is our Director Su!"
"If you have any requests, you can talk to our director. He will definitely make the decision!"
The other party immediately stretched out his hand.
"Hello, Director Su. We are from the Sixth Engineering Regiment of the Jinling Military Region. We have been ordered to assist your farm and complete the subsequent construction work."
Su Wenchen quickly stepped forward and shook the other person's hand. When he shook hands back, he could clearly feel the sandpaper-like touch of the other person's calloused hand.
"Hello, Captain Jiang! We welcome you to support our farm!"
"But to be honest, I didn't expect you to support us so quickly."
"Let's go! Let's go to our division first!"
"But to be honest, we didn't expect so many of you. We might have to ask you to make do with our staff for a bit."
After all, Su Wenchen didn't expect that an engineering team of more than a thousand people would be directly transferred here.
Now we really don’t have to worry about construction issues.
However, because it happened so suddenly at this early stage, they did not prepare accommodation to accommodate so many people.
So Su Wenchen was really a little worried.
But at this time Jiang Dayong shook his head.
"Director Su, I won't bother you with food and accommodation. Our Sixth Engineering Regiment is originally stationed in Xuzhou."
"We have a dedicated logistics team to take care of our meals. All we need is for you to provide us with a place to camp."
"We can set up camp ourselves."
When Su Wenchen heard this, he immediately said with an embarrassed expression on his face.
"That would be too much of a shame on our part."
"You came all the way here to support us, but you have to be responsible for your own food and lodging."
The other party said directly.
"Director Su, don't be embarrassed. We have our own rules. You just need to provide a place and some basic water."
Su Wenchen also said this after hearing this.
"Okay then. If Captain Jiang needs anything later, please don't be shy and let us know immediately."
"As for where to camp, let's camp right here in our drying yard!"
"This place is not far from the water source, nor is it far from our headquarters. Most importantly, it's large enough. Other places may not be able to accommodate so many of you."
"And there's one of our production teams not far from here. If you need anything, you can talk to our team leader."
"Okay, Director Su, we will definitely mention it if there is a need."
"Then I'll arrange for them to set up camp first."
After talking to Su Wenchen, he walked towards the soldiers who were sitting cross-legged in the drying yard.
"stand at attention--!"
"All camps, set up camp on the drying grounds. Dinner will be served in two hours!"
Soon, Su Wenchen looked at the teams of soldiers in the distance and began to plan their camp in an orderly manner.
He immediately said to the leader of the production team next to him.
"As expected of our country's army, there is order."
"By the way, you should also take good care of the employees in our group, especially the children, and don't cause trouble to the comrades in other troops."
Suddenly, I remembered what happened just now. Those young employees looked at these young soldiers and quickly gave them instructions.
"Old Yang, you should remind some of the young female workers that the young men on our farm are also quite good."
"We don't object to free love, but if you resort to underhanded tactics or create a scandal, we won't show mercy."
"After all, you are no longer the production team you once were."
Hearing Su Wenchen say this, the team leader called Lao Yang thought about the appearance of the unmarried female employees in their team and quickly made a promise.
"Director, don't worry. I will definitely go door to door to give instructions to their families tonight!"
"Here we are, the most we can do is be bold in our pursuit. We definitely won't resort to trickery or anything embarrassing like that."
