Chapter 234 Cooperation
"Okay, then I'll wait until Qingqing grows up!" Xu Jingyou agreed immediately. He felt that there was no difference between giving the family property to Xu Lingjun or Qingqing. If he gave it to his son, would he still not care about it? Moreover, Qingqing was his only grandson, so the family property would still be his in the future.
Xu Lingjun also felt that this arrangement was appropriate. He did not want to leave the ranch to his son because it was a collective enterprise and it was not appropriate to turn it into a family business. This was also one of the important reasons why similar economic models such as Huaixi Village declined.
"Then can I take Qingqing and Yueyue to the United States this time? The education in the United States is much better than that in China, and it will also be beneficial for their future development." Xu Jingyou asked tentatively again.
After these few days of communication, he has changed a lot. At least he knows to discuss with Xu Lingjun instead of giving orders directly like he did at the beginning.
Unexpectedly, Xu Lingjun rejected him again. "Qingqing and Yueyue are still young, and it is not suitable for them to leave their mother. When they grow up, if they are interested in academics, you can consider sending them to the United States! If they are not interested or do not have this talent, let them stay in China to study at university. After graduating from undergraduate studies, they may be sent to the United States for further studies, or they can go abroad for exchange for two years while studying for undergraduates. It is best to complete the main learning in China."
Xu Lingjun had also thought carefully about it. The current level of science and technology education in the United States is indeed leading the world. If they were to pursue an academic career, it would be a good idea for them to go to the United States and do research under cutting-edge scholars. Xu Lingjun could also help them choose the most suitable mentor.
There is no need to take other routes. Although American education is advanced, it may not be suitable for them.
The proudest thing in Xu Jingyou's life was that he was admitted to Harvard. Naturally, he wanted his grandchildren to study in famous American schools. He was very confused when he heard Xu Lingjun's opposition, "American education is the best. For the sake of the children's future, they should be allowed to go to the United States."
"You are also a person who has experienced great times. How come the Kuomintang, with so many high-ranking officials who graduated from famous European and American universities, lost in the end?" Xu Lingjun asked back, and Xu Jingyou was speechless for a moment.
Xu Lingjun continued, "Although they are familiar with various advanced theories, they are unable to combine these theories with domestic realities. I don't want my children to be like this. If they want to inherit your family property, they must be familiar with the real situation at home and abroad, especially in China, so it is best for them to complete their education before undergraduate studies in China."
There are real lessons to be learned from this. Rich people like Liu Yonghao and Wang Jianlin sent their children abroad at an early age. As a result, the children they raised had no ability to inherit the family business. The same is true for those at Wahaha and Great Wall.
Xu Lingjun is confident in his educational ability. It is more appropriate for the two children to stay with him and lay a solid foundation first. As for the future, if they have the intention, it will not be too late to go out for further studies.
Xu Jingyou recalled the scenes of his contact with Qingqing in the past few days, and he had to admit, "You are indeed much better than me in educating children. In this case, let them stay with you."
He sighed again, "Ah, it's a pity that we can't see our grandchildren often after so much effort."
"You can just come back often in the future. In a few years, when they grow up, you can let them spend more time with you during the winter and summer vacations." Xu Lingjun changed his address. It would not be bad to let children see more of the world when they are young, but one has to be on guard against Xu Jingyou and other children doing bad things, so they cannot let them go to the United States now.
"That's good, that's good!" Xu Jingyou immediately became happy. He planned to deal with the problems of his other children as soon as he returned.
After talking about family matters, the two began to talk about business matters. Xu Jingyou asked, "What kind of investment do you think is better for me now?"
"Since you have been working in the chemical industry for so many years, it would be better for you to continue with your old profession. Nowadays, the country is very backward in all aspects. If you can introduce relatively advanced production lines, you will definitely receive the gratitude of Mr. Rong and even higher-ups." Xu Lingjun was well prepared.
"Fertilizers, pesticides, plastic films and other projects have very broad prospects and huge market demand. You can choose Shandong to build a factory." Xu Lingjun helped him analyze, "Shandong is close to the sea, and these equipment can be shipped in by sea, saving transportation costs."
"Shandong is also one of the top agricultural provinces in China. These products can be consumed nearby, and they are more obedient to their superiors, so it will be much easier for investment to land."
"You can also set up an upstream factory in the field of feed and vaccines, for example, specializing in the production of various chemical raw materials for feed and vaccines, etc., so that we can still cooperate." The ranch's current strength is still relatively limited, and it is very difficult to independently develop these raw materials. If Xu Jingyou is willing to help, they can avoid many detours and invest resources in more urgent areas.
"Let's visit Mr. Rong again and ask him to provide some information. Then we can go to Shandong for an inspection together. Then I will write a business plan based on this information."
"You even know about the business plan? Okay, I'll ask them to contact Mr. Rong right away." Xu Jingyou was overjoyed.
Two days later, their family visited Mr. Rong again. When Mr. Rong heard that Xu Jingyou was willing to come back to invest, and that he was willing to invest in the chemical industry which was closely related to agriculture, he was very happy and immediately gave them the green light.
The next day, someone brought the information that Xu Lingjun urgently needed, and arranged for them to fly to Shandong for an inspection, accompanied by local leading cadres throughout the trip.
When he came back, Xu Lingjun quickly finished the plan. Xu Jingyou was very impressed after reading it, and Mr. Rong also gave it a high evaluation, "Not bad, not bad. It not only takes into account the domestic reality, but also leaves room for future development. I will help coordinate as soon as possible and ensure that when you come back next time, you can start implementing it immediately."
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Rong." Xu Jingyou thanked him politely.
With the support from above, advanced technology, and the plan developed by Xu Lingjun, Xu Jingyou is very optimistic about these projects and can't wait to fly back to the United States to start preparations.
But before that, he had more important things to do.
The next morning, he took Xu Lingjun and his family on a flight to Nanjing. They had never been back to their hometown this time. Now that they had grandchildren, they would definitely take them to worship their ancestors.
When they arrived in Nanjing, they were warmly welcomed by the locals. The local authorities also completed the urgent process and returned the ancestral home to the Xu family. Looking at the huge yard, Xu Lingjun felt that this yard alone was enough for Qingqing and Yueyue to lie down.
