Chapter 974 Conditional
Just as Liu Meilan was thinking about it, Tang Xiaoyu came over.
She was holding a set of the newly released foreign trade edition Seven White Pearl series. "Meilan, take a look. This is our foreign trade edition Seven White Pearl series. Do you have anything to add?"
Liu Meilan saw the seven-white pearl skincare products in Tang Xiaoyu's hand and said, "They look beautiful and are of good quality. I think they're all good! Where are you planning to export them to?"
Tang Xiaoyu replied: "We export to Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, Europe, and America!"
Liu Meilan was stunned. "I understand exporting to Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia, as we're close to those places and have frequent exchanges with them. But how did you open up channels in Europe and the United States?"
Liu Meilan wasn't surprised that Hong Kong's products could reach Southeast Asia. Japan and South Korea were at their peak, and they looked down on products from China. As for Europe and the United States, they were the strongholds of high-end skincare, making them even more difficult to enter.
Tang Xiaoyu smiled. "Of course, it's through Lisa! She has connections in the fashion world. I sent these things to the clients she introduced me to. After trying them, they placed orders with us! It's not a big start, but it's a good start."
"The packaging had already been designed, but we had to print different text on the instructions at the back depending on the country. It was a bit troublesome, but not a big deal."
Liu Meilan asked, "Are there many orders?"
Tang Xiaoyu smiled brightly, "For export, we'd rather produce high-end products. The profits are huge, and the orders have already exceeded tens of millions of dollars! Our products are of high quality, so we're sure to get more orders in the future!"
"I came here today to tell you that we have a huge demand for South China Sea pearls. We only harvest pearls once a year, so we have to harvest a large quantity each time, otherwise we won't be able to meet the demand."
Wang Lemei smiled and said, "Comrade Zhang, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Zhang Fengming also heard the conversation between Tang Xiaoyu and Liu Meilan, and his heart was burning with excitement. "The area under our jurisdiction is close to the sea. If this sea area can be used rationally, we certainly support it. Our policies are quite favorable. Not only that, we also want to introduce your pearl oyster species and encourage more people to cultivate them."
Tang Xiaoyu understood Zhang Fengming's purpose and his eyes lit up. "These policies are indeed attractive, but they are different from what we expected. So we need to hold a meeting to discuss them."
Zhang Fengming nodded. "Such a major matter does require discussion. However, we are always waiting for your visit! Once we reach a cooperation agreement, please let us know what you need from us. As long as we can do it, we will definitely not refuse."
Zhang Fengming strongly invited them, not only to develop the local economy, but also to revitalize the pearl farming industry.
In addition, the scale of Liu Meilan's pearl farming can provide a lot of tax revenue, which is also one of the incomes they urgently need locally.
"Okay, I heard you're interested in our ornamental fish and pearl farming. How about I take you to see them?"
Zhang Fengming was very happy, "Boss Liu, thank you so much!"
So Liu Meilan and Liu Yibang took Zhang Fengming to visit the ornamental fish farm.
Zhang Fengming, a northerner, was truly enlightened today by seeing so many beautiful fish.
He touched his chin and thought that Hai Province was vigorously developing the tourism industry. The ornamental fish were so beautiful and large in size, so they could definitely build an ornamental fish pavilion. This would be a great tourist attraction.
However, Zhang Fengming could not make the decision, so he did not say it in person. He planned to report it to his leader after returning.
After visiting the ornamental fish farm, they took a yacht to the pearl farm.
With only one month left before pearl mining, many pearl oysters have already produced plump pearls.
Liu Meilan put on a diving suit and jumped into the water without even wearing an oxygen tank. She picked up several pearl shells from the bottom of the water that were bigger than an adult man's palm.
Liu Yibang took the small medicine box and wiped the tools for opening pearl shells with medicine.
Under Zhang Fengming's curious and shocked gaze, Liu Meilan opened the pearl oyster, gently cut it with a knife, and took out the plump and shiny pearls from it.
Liu Meilan took out the big pearl inside, and the small bulges remained in the pearl oyster and would grow into big pearls next year.
She quickly applied some liquid to the wound on the pearl oyster's flesh with tweezers, gently closed the shell, and placed it in the bucket. After a while, she returned the pearl oyster to the sea.
Zhang Fengming took out a lot of pearls from several pearl shells and looked at these beautiful pearls with burning eyes. "They are so beautiful! No wonder women like them. I like them too!"
"But Mr. Liu, you have a bay here with a small entrance, which is where pearl oysters can grow. But there are very few such bays in the vast ocean. Aren't you afraid that the pearls you raise will be washed away by the sea?"
Liu Meilan smiled and replied, "This has to do with our feed. It can attract these pearl oysters! This kind of imitation wild farming method doesn't yield very high yields. I'll take you to see another place where they use three-dimensional farming!"
Zhang Fengming was more interested in this and felt it was more feasible. "Okay, I'll go take a look!"
So Liu Meilan took Zhang Fengming to see the three-dimensionally cultured South China Sea pearls.
This breeding method gave Zhang Fengming confidence. "Yes! This is real breeding. Even if there is a typhoon or heavy rain, some can be saved. It's not like those imitation wild breeding methods, which rely entirely on feed to attract pearl oysters and rely entirely on the pearl oysters to stay! What if the waves are too strong and wash the pearl oysters far away, they may not be able to come back!"
Zhang Fengming had this misunderstanding, but Liu Meilan did not correct it because she could not explain the special properties of her own feed.
When promoting it externally, Liu Meilan originally planned to promote this type of three-dimensionally cultured pearls.
Liu Meilan replied: "We have conditions for importing our pearl oysters!"
Zhang Fengming was slightly stunned and asked, "What are the conditions?"
Liu Meilan replied: "We want to recycle the pearls raised by farmers! Of course, the recycling price will be very high to ensure that the farmers have high profits!"
Zhang Fengming was stunned again and asked, "Why do you do this?"
Liu Meilan smiled and replied, "It's simple. I want to control the sales channels of these pearls! Some will go to Dafu Jewelry, some will be sold to international fashion and luxury brands, and the rest will be used as raw materials for the Seven White Pearl series."
"I can't let these pearls flow into the market in large quantities. If other skincare companies get this raw material and develop products that can challenge the Seven White Pearl series, it will be troublesome!"
High-end skin care products are the core business with great profits, so after Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu discussed it, they must strictly control the raw materials and reduce competition of the same quality as much as possible!
