Super Dimension Technology Era

After discussing for more than half an hour, Wang Yadong from the Institute of Social Research cleared his throat and said straight to the point: "Mr. Huang, although we have tried our best to make up for some of the problems in the dual agriculture model you proposed, there are still some problems... "

The so-called dual agricultural model is a parallel model of agricultural factories and rural farms.

Agricultural factories are responsible for producing all the domestic grain and a large part of the meat; rural farms are responsible for refined production and produce high-quality vegetables, fruits and meat.

Agricultural factories are managed by a national joint-stock company, which is the Huaguo Agricultural Cooperative Group; while rural farms are formed by local farmers and the Huanong Group to form a joint venture - the Rural Cooperative Plan.

Huanong Group will be merged into the Citizen Trusteeship Cooperative and become a subsidiary of the Citizen Trusteeship Cooperative. At the same time, the Citizen Trusteeship Cooperative is also adjusting its profit distribution this year.

The Citizen Trust Co., Ltd., which was established less than a year ago, made a total net profit of 187.3 billion in 2014, and this number is rising rapidly.

If Huanong Group is merged, the Citizen Trusteeship Cooperative will become even larger. In fact, this is part of Huang Mingzhe's [return plan] to gradually let the Citizen Trusteeship Cooperative take over related industries to prevent technology dividends from being swallowed up by capitalists.

Especially after the establishment of Netherworld Mansion, the Citizen Trusteeship Society has become a legitimate alternative state-owned enterprise.

The questions raised by Wang Yadong and others are mainly about whether the technology of agricultural factories is mature? Can production costs really be reduced?

If the technology is immature and there is no way to reduce costs, the consequence will be that Huanong Group continues to suffer losses. In the end, Huanong Group can only rely on subsidies to survive, or even go bankrupt.

However, Huang Mingzhe is full of confidence: "If the overall electricity cost of society drops to one-tenth of the current level, how much do you think the cost of agricultural production can drop?"

"This is impossible! Unless..." Wang Yadong was about to refute, but suddenly he seemed to think of something: "Is controllable nuclear fusion already practical?"

"If controllable nuclear fusion is realized, then it is possible."

“One-tenth of the cost of electricity is simply unimaginable.”

Others immediately started talking.

Huang Mingzhe said with a smile: "The controllable nuclear fusion project has currently refreshed the Q value to 43%, with a maximum operating time of 167 hours, although the first wall material is still very fragile."

"Has it reached this point?"

"The operation time is nearly a week. If it can be improved further, it will almost enter the commercialization stage."

The cost of electricity is one of the biggest problems faced by human industrialized society. If the current cost of electricity drops to only one-tenth, the overall cost of social production may drop by 30% to 50%.

When the cost drops by 30% to 50%, it means that one dollar can buy something that cost two dollars before. The biggest problem facing indoor agriculture is excessive power consumption.

Cheap electricity can produce a large amount of food at low cost, and at the same time make indoor farming profitable, which can form a hematopoietic cycle.

However, during this promotion process, it is necessary to ensure that Huanong Group's technological innovation and controllable nuclear fusion achievements are not stolen by those capitalists.

If the cost of electricity drops, the final price of the goods to consumers will still be the same. Obviously, the price difference will be stolen by middlemen.

In this way, it will only make those capitalists more powerful and widen the gap between rich and poor.

Therefore, we must let the real benefits fall into the hands of all citizens, instead of believing that the conscience of the capitalists will discover that those vampires will only knock on the bones and suck out the marrow.

After Huang Mingzhe promised to solve all technical problems, the dual agriculture model officially entered the perfection stage, and everyone discussed possible problems that may arise during the implementation process.

For example, the problem of big pot rice in rural cooperatives, the supervision of management, the issue of wages and benefits, etc.

Huanong Group will annex COFCO Group, China Grain Reserves, etc., and then form a comprehensive agricultural group.

Forming a full-chain production including fertilizers and pesticides, agricultural machinery and tools, farm factories, logistics and transportation, online and offline, scientific research, and safety reserves.

Rural cooperatives, as a very important link, are the key areas of this reform.

Rural cooperatives take towns as the center and natural villages as units. Farmers bring farmland, pastures, fish ponds, forest farms, and orchards to join rural cooperatives.

After joining a rural cooperative, you will receive corresponding shares based on the value of your production materials.

Huanong Group only holds 20% of the shares and management rights of local rural cooperatives, and farmers will receive 80% of the shares of rural cooperatives.

Income is distributed according to the proportion of shares. Farmers who participate in production become agricultural workers and receive wages and five social insurances and one housing fund. Farmers who do not participate in work can only receive stock dividends.

Everything is done on a voluntary basis and farmers are not forced to join rural cooperatives.

In fact, when all aspects of Huanong Group are fully rolled out, it will become such a model:

The company headquarters uses big data and artificial intelligence to analyze the market trends, yields, and prices of various crops.

Then the output is allocated to production areas according to local conditions to ensure that the crop output is slightly more than the market demand, and there will be no oversupply or undersupply of output.

In addition, Citizen Home is also cooperating and launching an annual household food list online to facilitate Huanong Group’s big data predictions.

The entire life cycle of agricultural products from seed to table will be completed by Huanong Group, which greatly reduces production costs.

It is expected that the overall retail price of agricultural products in society can be reduced by 30 to 70%. The decline in agricultural product prices means a disguised increase in residents' disposable income.

Of course, all this change did not happen so quickly. The rural cooperative model was initially piloted in four provinces: Guangxi, Heijiang, Shu, and Qilu.

Agricultural factories are concentrated in the North China Plain and the Northeast Plain.

…

After the meeting officially ended, Huang Mingzhe established the Huaguo Agricultural Cooperation Group through the Citizen Trusteeship and the help of other departments.

It directly merged with Beiping Agricultural Group, China National Grain Reserves Corporation, COFCO Group, and China Grain and Oil Group. This is the company that directly merged with Huanong Group.

Due to the existence of private shares (mixed ownership enterprises), Huanong Group established Huanong Management Company to manage these companies, which is equivalent to subsidiaries or joint ventures.

After completing the merger, Huang Mingzhe immediately launched a major purge. The network management committee's logic machine, with the support of artificial intelligence, took advantage of this merger to directly go on a killing spree.

A lot of rats and corrupt personnel have been cleared out, and the era of dawdling is over. Huanong Group has cooperated with Shenguang Instrument Group to establish a comprehensive network management.

In this world, many things are not that they cannot be solved, but whether they want to be solved or not.

In management, artificial intelligence can eliminate problems such as overwork and personal enrichment. As for them, they do not engage in small actions within the scope of the network, but engage in small actions outside.

Huang Mingzhe and the Institute of Social Research have formulated the strictest management framework and rules, so there is no chance of taking advantage of any loopholes.

Electronic invoices, electronic documents, online office work, and a pervasive monitoring network. Even their meetings are required to be held in the virtual world, forming a monitoring system with no blind spots.

Coupled with the absolute fairness and impartiality of artificial intelligence and the dual supervision of network management committee logicians, 99.9% of human-made problems will be nipped in the bud.

As for employees who can't stand this kind of monitoring, they can resign if they don't want to work. Don't think that Huanong Group can just hang around.
