But in Zhou Qi's opinion, Cao Yuan is an upright person and enjoys a high reputation in the village. The villagers will feel more at ease if he promotes the project.

Once one village succeeds, other places will follow suit, and things will be much easier. Therefore, it is most appropriate for Cao Yuan to take the lead.

"Xiao Zhou, you really gave me a big surprise!"

Cao Yuan said excitedly, "From the moment you started buying cotton and cloth, I knew you would make a difference and do good things for the villagers. I was right about you."

"Since you built the factory, you have always been thinking about the villagers, providing jobs for those in need, and the pay is better than anywhere else. We are all very grateful."

"You have done such a great deed again this time. The villagers will definitely be very happy to know about it. Thank you on behalf of everyone!"

"Please rest assured, I will do this even if I have to run myself to pieces." Cao Yuan's eyes moistened as he spoke. As a genuine farmer, no one knows the hardships of farmers better than him.

Zhou Qi promised to contract the land for five consecutive years, which meant that cotton farmers no longer had to worry about not being able to sell their cotton and their lives would become better. All these risks were borne by Zhou Qi alone.

"Uncle Cao, you are too kind." Zhou Qi responded modestly, "This is just a business decision of mine to reduce costs.

I am a businessman, and I am doing this out of consideration for profit, not as noble as you say."

But Cao Yuan shook his head: "Even so, there are so many places in the country where cotton is grown, you can choose other ways to purchase it.

However, you chose us and took the risk to invest. This is a fact. If anyone doesn't appreciate it, I will be the first to disagree!"

That night, the good news spread to every village, and it was as lively as New Year's Day, with everyone's face filled with joy.

Cao Yuan has recently become the object of many village heads' visits, all of whom want to confirm an important matter. Cao Yuan patiently explained the new land contract policy to them and pointed out that the implementation of this work requires the support of each village.

In the future, each village will set up a contracting station, and village cadres will supervise the operation of the cooperative and be responsible for material distribution and procurement, which can greatly reduce the pressure on cotton mills.

Just two days later, the relevant documents were approved and the draft contract was filed with the county. Everything was ready, and the implementation work was immediately launched. With the support of the government and the preferential conditions, the farmers responded enthusiastically.

Zhou Qi not only paid 30 million as a deposit, but also contributed extra money to help each village set up workstations. In this way, the "Inspur Supply and Marketing Cooperative" was officially established, and it successfully contracted 70% of the cotton fields in the county.

The rest, some because of poor production in the past, and some because of skepticism about the new policy, are unwilling to sign the contract. This is expected and normal.

A week later, Du Qianqian brought good news. She successfully brought back the key technology. As Zhou Qi expected, the equipment was actually simply modified, and the core was the technology used to produce toilet paper.

The three machines brought back to China have been assembled and passed the preliminary test. Du Qianqian is very satisfied with the results.

The samples will be delivered to Zhou Qi soon, and if everything goes well, he can start preparing the production line.

Most importantly, now they can modify their equipment independently and are no longer controlled by others. Although this method is a bit gray, who knows?

Du Qianqian did not order more equipment as originally planned. The other party was too confident and agreed to send someone to teach assembly technology as soon as he heard that the full amount could be paid.

As a result, all the secrets are known through repeated learning.

Currently, three devices are placed in Nanyue Province, while the main production base is located near the county seat.

Zhou Qi cleverly used three devices and secretly built a complete production line.

Just three days later, the sample sent by Du Qianqian arrived in his hands.

The quality is very good, it is pure cotton! Although there are not many styles and patterns, it is enough for the current market development.

As for the production equipment, Du Qianqian is responsible for its implementation.

At the same time, the cotton mill also began to purchase cotton, and Sun Yiling was busy conducting comprehensive training for the new employees, which was expected to be completed within a week, just in time for the arrival of the facial wipes production equipment.

If nothing goes wrong, the factory will be able to go into full production in about half a month.

During this period, franchise stores of "Langchao Clothing" opened all over the country. With the star effect and unique and high-quality design, it attracted a large number of customers as soon as it opened and business was very prosperous.

The "Inspur" brand took this opportunity to officially take the first step towards conquering the national market. With the launch of facial cleansing towels and other disposable products, the brand's market competitiveness has been significantly improved.

Especially for facial cleansing wipes, as a brand-new product, there are almost no competitors in the domestic market, which has won huge development space for "Inspur".

One day, Zhou Qi read a piece of news: Lenovo Group held its 586th exchange and demonstration meeting at the Shangri-La Hotel, where it launched China's first and most powerful microcomputer at the time, Lenovo , and displayed a number of new products.

For Zhou Qi, this news is of great significance, as it means that personal computers will no longer be limited to professionals, but will gradually become popular among ordinary families.

Considering the upcoming Internet era, this is an opportunity that cannot be missed.

Therefore, Zhou Qi immediately called Qiao Xueying and said, "We need to establish contact with Lenovo Group as soon as possible and strive to become their exclusive agent nationwide.

At the same time, we will set up a special team to learn computer technology and build our own professional team. "This marks that Hualong Electric is about to embark on a new journey.

Today, Hualong Electric has become a well-known brand in the country. It is not difficult to establish a cooperative relationship with Lenovo, which is a win-win situation for both parties.

In fact, in order to expand its market influence, Lenovo is also looking for partners like Hualong. Now is a good time for Hualong to take the initiative.

When Zhou Qi proposed this plan, Qiao Xuying felt a little confused: "Mr. Zhou, this microcomputer doesn't seem to be very popular? It is not a necessity, and the price is high. The market acceptance may be very low. Isn't it too risky to do this?"

She had a point. After all, in those days, many families didn't even have color TVs, let alone computers. Such an expensive product would probably go unsold in the market.

But Zhou Qi said confidently: "My vision is not limited to the present. The future belongs to the Internet era.

If we can cooperate with Lenovo early on, we will be well positioned for the upcoming market changes.”
