0:00Oh, isn't this Shen Yan, our village's
0:02only key university student? How come
0:04he's come crawling back, looking so
0:05defeated? He couldn't make it in the
0:06city, obviously. Four years at a
0:08prestigious university, all for nothing.
0:10Now he's back in the village, just like
0:11us, digging in the dirt. Ha ha ha,
0:14exactly. Spent all that money on a
0:16college student, and he can't even land
0:19a stable job. What a disgrace. Ha ha I
0:23came back to the village to do something
0:25big.
0:28Do something big? What? How much longer
0:31are you going to keep shaming the Shen
0:33family?
0:34I told you not to go to that useless
0:36university. If you'd stayed home and
0:38farmed after high school, you'd have a
0:39wife by now.
0:42Hear that, Mr. Big Shot? Your fancy
0:45diploma isn't even good enough to wipe
0:46your butt with in this village.
0:51Studying isn't useless.
0:53You just don't know how to use it.
0:59Just you all watch.
1:01I'll use these 100 acres of wasteland at
1:04the village entrance to prove to
1:05everyone
1:06that my brain, Shen Yan's brain, can
1:09grow gold.
1:11Village chief, here's 5,000 yuan. I want
1:14to lease those 100 acres of wasteland
1:15west of the village. Are you crazy? Ha
1:18ha ha, that land is nothing but saline
1:20alkali lumps. Anything you plant there
1:22dies. It's a waste of money. Ha ha ha,
1:24the college student's gone mad from all
1:26that studying. Coming back to lease
1:27saline alkali land. This is hilarious.
1:30Mr. Big Shot, you can't even tell wheat
1:32sprouts from chives, and you dare to
1:34lease land? What does a college student
1:36know about farming? You're just messing
1:38around, throwing your dad's coffin money
1:40down the drain. Farming relies on
1:42science, not the nonsense in your heads.
1:46The land isn't bad. You old-fashioned
1:48folks just don't know how to cultivate
1:49it.
1:51In my hands, dead land can become
1:53fertile fields that lay golden eggs.
1:57What's a sin? You're jumping into a fire
2:00pit.
2:02>> I've signed this in black and white. In
2:05less than a month, I'll make this
2:06wasteland grow things you couldn't even
2:08imagine.
2:09>> You signed it? You really signed it?
2:11Fine. If you dare to touch this dead
2:13land from now on, whether you live or
2:15die, my Shen family will pretend we
2:17never had a son like you. I'm done with
2:19you.
2:19>> Dad, I'm sorry, but I will prove to you
2:22that my path is absolutely right.
2:26>> Oh my, everyone look. The great scholar
2:29is farming with some iron gadget that
2:30looks like a TV remote. Haha, what good
2:33is this broken instrument? Can it
2:35conjure up fertilizer or water? It's
2:37completely pointless, a waste of effort.
2:41>> HMBH, what's he showing off for? Our
2:44ancestors have farmed for generations by
2:46feel. Just by squeezing a handful of
2:48dirt, we know if it's wet or dry. All
2:50these fancy foreign gadgets are useless.
2:52A bookworm is just a bookworm. He
2:54doesn't even know how to hold a hoe.
3:00>> Feel?
3:04>> Can your calloused hands tell what trace
3:06elements this soil is lacking?
3:08Can they tell the soil's pH level? Open
3:10your eyes and look closely.
3:13This plot of land has a pH of only 4.2.
3:16Severely acidic, extremely deficient in
3:18nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium.
3:20Organic matter content is less than 1%.
3:23This is a typical acidified barren
3:24wasteland. Your blind use of enzymes
3:26will only make the land more dead.
3:28>> What P? What H? What kind of gibberish
3:31is this kid talking?
3:32>> It's okay if you don't understand. As
3:34long as we apply the right remedy, even
3:36dead land can be revived. Give me 3
3:39months. I will make all of you witness a
3:41true miracle on this dead land.
3:46>> Uh, it stinks. Our village's great
3:48scholar, how did he switch to picking up
3:50manure?
3:51>> Exactly. Just buy two bags chemical
3:52fertilizer. It's so much easier. Why
3:54bother with all this thankless effort?
3:56He studied all that for nothing. He's
3:58just getting worse and worse.
3:59>> Son, please. Dad's begging you. Stop
4:02messing around.
4:04Take the money and buy two bags of
4:05chemical fertilizer in town. It's so
4:08much less hassle.
4:09>> Dad, chemical fertilizers only make the
4:11soil more compacted.
4:16You've been using chemical fertilizers
4:17year after year, and the land just gets
4:19worse. That's how this land died.
4:23Only microbial organic fertilizer is the
4:25fundamental way to nourish the soil.
4:30Scientific farming, you simply don't
4:32understand.
4:39The land is now fully nourished. Next up
4:41is deep cultivation. Once the seeds are
4:43in the ground, I'll make everyone in the
4:45village look at me differently.
4:53>> Oh my goodness. Look at these seedlings
4:55the college grad grew. Their stems are
4:57thicker than my pinky finger.
4:59>> Believe it. They're so green they're
4:59practically glowing. They're at least 10
5:01times stronger than the seedlings we've
5:02been growing for over a decade.
5:12>> What good is looking nice? They're just
5:14hot house flowers. Once they're planted
5:16in that barren, saline land on the west
5:17side of the village, they'll all be dead
5:19within 3 days.
5:21>> They'll only die if you plant them
5:22blindly. 25° constant temperature, 60%
5:25precise humidity control, optimal golden
5:27ratio of trace elements. Every step I
5:29take is backed by data accurate to the
5:31decimal point.
5:32What do you have to compare to my
5:33survival rate?
5:37>> Come on, everyone. Look, the great
5:40scholar is burying these precious
5:42seedlings in dead soil.
5:44Ha ha ha. Just wait and see how he loses
5:46everything. He's the laughing stock of
5:48the whole village. Laugh.
5:51Laugh all you want.
5:53Once the roots are firmly established in
5:54the ground, I'll show you
5:58what dimensional reduction means.
6:02Look, everyone. Is this bookworm feeding
6:04ants with a few drops of water? When you
6:06water the fields, you got to flood them
6:08thoroughly. You're just messing around.
6:10Exactly. Look how stingy he is. He won't
6:12even use enough water. There's no way
6:14these seedlings will survive. You don't
6:16even know how to water. The rules handed
6:18down by our ancestors say that the
6:19stronger the sun, the more vigorously
6:21you should water. That's how the
6:23seedlings get enough to drink.
6:25Pouring water when the sun is hot?
6:28Are you watering the land or stewing
6:30live roots in an iron pot? At noon, the
6:32ground temperature is 40°. Pouring cold
6:35water causes a sudden temperature
6:36change, instantly killing the root
6:37hairs. And flood irrigation is even
6:39worse. It's killing the goose that lays
6:41the golden eggs. All the oxygen in the
6:43soil gets squeezed out and the plant
6:45suffocate and rot. This is called
6:46precise drip irrigation. You old fogies,
6:49what do you know about science? Keep
6:51bragging, then. Planting seedlings on
6:53this dead land and being so cheap about
6:55it. I bet you'll be harvesting a field
6:58of dead grass in 3 days.
7:03They're alive. They're alive. They all
7:05survived. They've even sprouted new
7:07shoots. This is impossible. 3 days have
7:09passed.
7:11Life from dead land. The show has just
7:13begun.
7:17>> What the hell? The seedlings grown in
7:19this dead soil are even stronger than
7:21the ones in our good soil.
7:25>> They actually grew. I've never seen
7:26anything like it. They're so green,
7:28they're practically glowing. This is
7:29just spooky.
7:30>> What are you all so excited about?
7:32They've only been alive for a few days.
7:34They might look green, but they're all
7:36hollow inside.
7:38When it's time to bear fruit, this dead
7:40soil definitely won't provide enough
7:41nutrients. They'll all rot in the
7:43ground, get sick, and die off.
7:49>> Your chemical fertilizer fields only
7:51grow leaves and no roots. That's like
7:53pulling up seedlings to help them grow.
7:54They'll die as soon as the sun hits
7:56them. Look closely. This is called early
7:58stage growth control and root promotion.
8:00The deeper the roots, the stronger their
8:01resistance to drought, disease, and
8:03pests later on. This growth isn't just
8:05okay. This is just the beginning. The
8:07real show is yet to come. Its growth
8:09will only get more explosive and
8:11vigorous.
8:12>> This kid.
8:14Could it be that those few tattered
8:16books of his hide some kind of treasure
8:18trove?
8:21Is the Shin family's ancestral grave
8:24finally going to emit green smoke?
8:30>> Look, everyone. I told you, this college
8:32student's farming is just for show,
8:34right? These leaves are as thin as
8:36window paper. They'll tear with a gust
8:38of wind. They can't even store
8:40nutrients. There's no way they'll
8:41produce even half a chili pepper.
8:43>> They do look thin, though. The chili
8:45peppers we grow ourselves have much
8:46thicker leaves.
8:47>> This is it, then. He'll probably just
8:49grow tall without bearing fruit. The
8:50yield will definitely be terrible. All
8:52that excitement for nothing.
8:58>> Thick means good? You're pretending to
9:00understand when you don't. You're just
9:01putting your ignorance on display for
9:02the whole village to laugh at.
9:05Look closely. This is a high efficiency
9:07thin leaf variety. Thin leaves mean
9:09higher light transmittance, and
9:11photosynthesis efficiency is three times
9:12stronger than your stupid thick leaves.
9:14Nutrients aren't wasted on growing
9:16leaves, so the fruit setting rate will
9:17be incredibly high. This is the absolute
9:19difference between science and old folk
9:21remedies.
9:22>> Thin leaves offer more fruit?
9:24>> Is that really what the books say?
9:28>> Being stubborn won't help. Data doesn't
9:30lie. When these plants are covered in
9:32red lanterns, I'll make sure your face
9:34is sting from being proven wrong.
9:41My goodness, it's the same basket, but
9:43his is over 10 catties heavier than
9:44ours. The flesh is as solid as a rock.
9:47Each catty is two tails heavier than
9:49ours. Even more. Why are you getting so
9:51excited? It's just a coincidence. Wow.
9:54Why are you getting so excited? It's
9:56just a coincidence. This is definitely a
9:58coincidence. It must be that some random
10:00patch of soil in this wasteland happened
10:02to be fertile. A blind squirrel finds a
10:04nut once in a while. What can one basket
10:06prove?
10:11Coincidence?
10:13In agricultural science, there's no such
10:15thing as coincidence. From soil testing
10:17and formula-based deep soil improvement
10:19to constant temperature ceiling
10:20cultivation and precise drip irrigation,
10:22every step I take is backed by data
10:23accurate to the decimal point. This is
10:25inevitability. Only blind people like
10:27you, who rely entirely on nature, would
10:29mistake someone else's undeniable
10:30strength for ridiculous luck.
10:33>> Thick flesh, few seeds, and the true
10:35spicy kick. These are premium peppers.
10:37Young man, the market price is one yuan
10:39per catty, but I'll offer two. I'll buy
10:41all of them. However much you have, I'll
10:44take it.
10:44>> Two? Two yuan? That's double. He's going
10:47to make a fortune off these 100 mu of
10:49land.
10:51>> He actually paid in cash.
10:53Just this small cart sold for several
10:54thousand yuan. If he harvests all 100 mu
10:57of land, oh my goodness.
10:59What's there to brag about? Just a lucky
11:01break, that's all.
11:04>> The first crop sucked all the nutrients
11:05out of the soil. When the next batch
11:07fruits, this dead land will definitely
11:09yield nothing. Not even a shriveled leaf
11:11will be left.
11:14Being ignorant isn't a mistake, but
11:16making a fool of yourself in public,
11:18that's on you.
11:19Open your eyes and see clearly. This is
11:21called continuous multi-crop fruiting
11:23technology. The first batch was just an
11:25appetizer. The next batch's yield will
11:28at least double, and the price will only
11:30be higher than today. Just stand there,
11:32open your eyes wide, and be jealous.
11:36Son, are you thirsty? Have some water.
11:38Your university education really wasn't
11:40wasted. That land can really produce
11:42gold. Dad, the first shot has been
11:44fired. Next, I'm going to turn Tiaohua
11:46Village completely upside down.
11:50This is just unbelievable, absolutely
11:52unbelievable. How come that bookworm can
11:54grow them, but all my seedlings rotted
11:56in the ground? Oh, Daojuan, why didn't
11:59yours grow well? Didn't you say college
12:01students just mess things up, and our
12:02old experience is more reliable?
12:04Haha, exactly. You copied him, even
12:07learned his sheep manure composting. So,
12:08why did you end up with a field of dead
12:10weeds?
12:11Where are you going to put your face
12:12now?
12:15You can't even copy homework right, and
12:17you still have the nerve to blame the
12:18seeds. Who do you think you are? I
12:20composted and nurtured the seedlings.
12:22Which step didn't I follow your
12:24instructions? It's you, kid, who messed
12:26with it. For composting and
12:27fermentation, the internal core
12:29temperature must reach above 60° C,
12:31and it needs to be sealed and matured
12:32for at least 20 days. But you you rushed
12:34to plant the raw manure in less than 5
12:36days.
12:37It fermented a second time in the soil,
12:39producing a large amount of ammonia gas.
12:41You're not farming, you're gassing your
12:42seedlings. They're absolutely going to
12:44burn and die. Don't get too cocky. It's
12:46just a lucky break that yours survived.
12:48You just wait, your crappy land will
12:50soon be infested with pests and
12:52diseases. I'll be watching you closely,
12:54and I'll expose your tricks. Anytime. I
12:56just worry your intelligence won't even
12:58be able to spot my tricks.
13:00It's all over. It's all over. It was
13:03fine yesterday, but today so many leaves
13:05have turned yellow.
13:07What kind of strange disease is this?
13:08It's spreading too fast. If this can't
13:10be cured, Old Man Li's 10,000 yuan
13:12investment this year will all go down
13:13the drain.
13:14It's a total crop failure.
13:19What are you panicking about? It's just
13:21bugs, isn't it? The bugs bit the leaves
13:23and turned them yellow. Go buy the
13:25strongest insecticide, quick. Mix in
13:27more medicine. Spray three to five
13:29buckets and it'll be cured for sure.
13:38>> Spray insecticide? Are you trying to
13:39make old man Li go bankrupt even faster
13:41by poisoning all his cucumbers with one
13:43dose?
13:44>> You're full of crap. If it's sick, what
13:46do you spray if not insecticide, you
13:48bookworm? What are you pretending to be
13:49a big shot for again?
13:51>> This is downy mildew. It's a typical
13:52fungal disease. It's not an insect pest
13:55at all. Spraying insecticide on fungus
13:57won't just be useless. It'll cause
13:58severe chemical damage. It'll burn the
14:00seedlings. To deal with downy mildew,
14:02you must use 72% metalaxyl mancozeb.
14:05It's a wettable powder. That's called
14:07prescribing the right medicine for the
14:08illness.
14:10>> Little Yang, this this new medicine, can
14:12it really save this dying crop from
14:14total failure?
14:15>> Three days.
14:18In three days, the yellow spots will
14:19fade and new leaves will sprout. You'll
14:21see for yourselves whether it's a total
14:23loss or a miraculous recovery.
14:25>> It's miraculous. You're a living god.
14:27All the yellow spots are gone. The new
14:29shoots are even stronger than before. My
14:31life is saved. Old man Li's life is
14:33saved. It's incredible. He said three
14:35days and it was three days. He just
14:37takes one look and knows what the
14:38disease is. What exactly is in this
14:39college student's head?
14:40>> Oh, Dazhihuan, didn't you say you were
14:42going to spray three to five barrels of
14:44pesticide that day? If old man Li had
14:46listened to you, he'd be jumping into
14:48the river today.
14:49>> He just pretends to know what he
14:50doesn't. Almost got someone killed.
14:52Compared to the brilliant Shen Yan, he's
14:54not even fit to carry his shoes.
14:56>> Haha, polygonal lesions, water-soaked
14:58grayish-black mold on the underside of
15:00the leaves. These are the most basic
15:02characteristics of a fungal infection.
15:03Aren't all these things clearly written
15:05in the university textbooks you all look
15:06down on? Studying is useless. That's
15:08just an excuse for the incompetent.
15:10Scientific farming is the only way
15:11forward for this land.
15:16>> My goodness, that car must cost
15:18millions, right? What's a big boss from
15:20the city doing in our rundown village.
15:25>> You must be Shen Yang.
15:28I saw your premium chili peppers at the
15:30county acquisition station. Your
15:31technique is terrifyingly professional.
15:34I'm very interested in the knowledge in
15:36your head. Work with me. I can make you
15:38more money than you've ever seen in your
15:39life.
15:41This is my complete business plan. Your
15:43farming techniques are top-notch, but I
15:45understand standardized fruit and
15:46vegetable sorting, cold chain packaging,
15:48and high-end supermarket channels. The
15:50premium produce you grow can only fetch
15:52luxury prices on my production line. If
15:54we work together, profits will
15:56quintuple.
15:56>> Oh, wow. A college student who can't
15:59even hold a hoe, plus a delicate city
16:01girl. Really think they're bosses now,
16:02huh? Exactly. Farming requires
16:05down-to-earth work. What's the point of
16:07all these fancy words? Two wet behind
16:08the ears kids messing around together.
16:10They'll lose everything eventually.
16:14>> Messing around?
16:16Do you really think modern agriculture
16:17is still about toiling in the fields
16:19carrying baskets to the market like in
16:20primitive times? Premium tech is the
16:22foundation. Standardized operations.
16:25This is what we call dimensional
16:26reduction. I'm responsible for breaking
16:28through yield barriers. She's
16:29responsible for opening up sales
16:30channels. Front-end and back-end, a
16:32powerful combination. This is modern
16:34industrialized agriculture. It's a
16:36million times better than your pathetic
16:37solo efforts. I've seen your plan. It's
16:39perfect, but your ambition is too small.
16:41What do you mean? The output from 100 mu
16:44isn't enough for you?
16:46What's 100 mu? I'm going to lease all
16:48the land in Taihua Village. I'm going to
16:50build the largest modern agricultural
16:51base in the entire province. I want the
16:53entire market to dance to our tune.
16:57>> Everyone, don't fall for this bookworm's
16:59tricks. Use your brains. How could such
17:01huge peppers grow in dead soil? He
17:04definitely used hormones. Anyone who
17:06eats these poison peppers will get sick.
17:08He wants to kill everyone in Taihua
17:09Village.
17:10>> Oh my god. No wonder they grew so
17:12strangely. So, it's all science and
17:14ruthlessness.
17:16>> This one, too. If someone dies from
17:17eating these, our whole village will end
17:19up in jail. Even if they're free, I
17:21wouldn't dare take his vegetables
17:22anymore.
17:27>> It's easy to spread rumors, but hard to
17:29debunk them. In my dictionary,
17:32I never tolerate this kind of jealous,
17:33petty behavior. I'm taking these samples
17:35to the county agricultural bureau's
17:37quality inspection station right now for
17:38the most authoritative 108-item
17:40pesticide residue full inspection. Do
17:42you dare get in my car? Come with me to
17:44check. If they find even a tiny bit of
17:45prohibited ingredients, I'll give you
17:47these 100 acres for free. But if they
17:49pass every single test, you'll kneel
17:50down and apologize to me in front of the
17:52whole village.
17:53>> I, why should I go with you? Who knows
17:55what tricks you're playing?
17:56>> Deng Juan chickened out. He's scared to
17:58go. He's definitely just jealous and
18:00spreading rumors.
18:01>> If you don't go and you damage the
18:02reputation of agricultural products,
18:04that's enough to land you in jail for a
18:05few years. You'd better go home now and
18:07wash that foul mouth of yours clean.
18:09Just wait.
18:10>> Folks, the county bureau's report is
18:12out. Not only are all 108 pesticide
18:14residues zero, but they're all zero.
18:17>> Oh my goodness. It also says here that
18:19the vitamin C content in these chili
18:20peppers is three times higher than
18:21ordinary ones.
18:23>> Hey, hey, hey, Deng Juan, why are you
18:26hiding? Didn't you say eating them would
18:28make people sick?
18:28>> He's just spreading rumors. Almost
18:30ruined our village's reputation. This
18:32kind of rotten scoundrel should be
18:33locked up.
18:34>> Run? You think you can spread rumors and
18:36just walk away?
18:39Look at the official seal on this
18:40report. This is what you called highly
18:42toxic hormones. How do you control pests
18:44without pesticides? This is called green
18:46pest control, physical pest control,
18:49frequency vibration insecticidal lamps,
18:51physical trapping using yellow and blue
18:52sticky boards, biological bacterial
18:55fertilizer to nourish the roots. Growing
18:57good crops relies on hardcore
18:58technology,
18:59not on your cheap, crooked ways.
19:02>> Bao Shen, how do you do that physical
19:04balance thing you just mentioned?
19:05>> You want to learn? As long as you dare
19:06to follow me, I guarantee every inch of
19:08land in this village will grow gold.
19:11Today, I'm betting these 10 mu of land
19:13with you. We'll draw a line and compete
19:15on who can grow the best corn. I've been
19:18farming since I was a kid, planting corn
19:20for a full 30 years. I'd like to see if
19:22your few dusty books can outperform
19:24these hands, calloused from 30 years of
19:26work.
19:26>> This isn't farming. One is fighting for
19:28his life, the other is like playing a
19:30game in an office in the city.
19:3130 years of experience? That's not smart
19:34agriculture.
19:36It's just repeating the same wrong
19:38farming methods for 30 years. Weigh it.
19:4030 years of belief or the truth of
19:42modern science? Today, we'll let the
19:45data speak.
19:47>> Weighing is complete. Wang Dazhuang's
19:49field yielded 800 jin per mu. Shen Yan's
19:51field yielded 1,200 jin per mu.
19:54>> Seed selection, soil testing, and
19:55formula application, wide-narrow-row
19:57dense planting technology,
19:58drone-assisted pest control and growth
20:00regulation. A difference of a full 400
20:02jin. This is science, mercilessly
20:04crushing outdated methods.
20:06>> 400 jin? How is that possible? My 30
20:09years of skill has become a joke. Times
20:11have changed.
20:13>> If you don't keep up with science, you
20:15won't just lose these 10 mu of land.
20:17You'll be completely stripped of your
20:18right to even survive on this land.
20:21Why are his just finger-sized, while
20:23mine are like baseball bats?
20:25First key point, wide-narrow-row dense
20:27planting. With your old-fashioned method
20:29of scattering seeds evenly, the corn in
20:30the middle never sees the sun. They just
20:33choke and die. Wide-narrow rows allow
20:35every leaf to get sunlight. That's
20:36called photosynthesis. Totally.
20:38>> Oh, so wide-narrow rows offer sunlight.
20:41These methods from books, they just
20:42sound more reasonable than our old ways.
20:48>> HMPH, second point, fertilization
20:51timing. Flooding with water and heavy
20:53fertilizing during the seedling stage
20:54will only make the corn grow tall
20:55without bearing fruit. You must
20:57precisely apply nitrogen fertilizer
20:59during the bell mouth stage. You feed it
21:01when it's hungriest, when it needs to
21:02grow fruit the most. That's putting the
21:04steel where it's sharpest. Plus,
21:06biological pest control and drone-based
21:08early prevention. With these three
21:09strategies, how could the yield not
21:11explode? Farming isn't about feeling or
21:13relying on luck anymore. It's about
21:14precise data, about hard science. If you
21:17don't upgrade those old experiences in
21:18your head today, you'll be completely
21:19eliminated by the market tomorrow.
21:21Shen, expert Shen Yan, your techniques
21:23are amazing. Mr. Shen, please teach us
21:25your planting techniques. Everyone wants
21:27to learn from you. Let's try to boost
21:29our yields. I can teach you, but I, Shen
21:31Yan, will not lead a disorganized mob.
21:33All village land will be centrally
21:35managed and allocated by me. Are you all
21:36willing to entrust your livelihoods to
21:38my hands?
21:39Oh, Boss Yan, Master Shen, please don't
21:42despise these local specialties.
21:44Master Shen, we are truly convinced.
21:47That 400 jin yield difference just blew
21:49our minds. Please be merciful and take
21:51us as your apprentices. Teach us
21:53scientific farming.
21:58A bunch of spineless bandwagoners. This
22:00little bastard, what kind of spell did
22:02he cast on them? They're all running to
22:03be his lackeys.
22:08Take it back. Boss Yan, don't be like
22:10that. It was our fault for not
22:11recognizing your greatness. Please be
22:13magnanimous. Do you think I, Shen Yan,
22:15care about your paltry offerings? Listen
22:17up, my techniques are not for sale. I'll
22:19teach them all for free. I didn't come
22:21back to show off. I came back to lead
22:23the entire village using modern
22:24agricultural standards to seize the
22:26market. As long as you're willing to
22:27learn and you're willing to follow my
22:29absolute unified command, I guarantee
22:30your income this year will increase by
22:32at least five times. Tomorrow night at
22:348:00 p.m., the first class of the
22:36agricultural technology night school
22:37officially begins at the village
22:38committee courtyard. Don't be late. Boss
22:40Yan is mighty. My whole family will
22:42definitely be there on time.
22:44Free classes? He's probably trying to
22:46win people over and take control of the
22:47village. We'll see who gets the last
22:50laugh.
22:55Shen Yan, the great scholar, you're
22:56still working hard, huh?
22:58Earlier today, my mouth was foul. I was
23:01out of line. Could you Could you
23:03secretly teach me your method for those
23:04premium chili peppers?
23:06>> Oh, isn't this Wong Dajong, the senior
23:08farmer with 30 years of experience?
23:10Didn't you say I was just messing
23:11around? Didn't you say studying was
23:13useless? That college students can't
23:15even tell weed seedlings from chives?
23:17You're asking a bookworm like me for
23:18advice? Aren't you afraid I'll poison
23:20your land, too?
23:21>> I was wrong. I'm completely convinced.
23:23Isn't that enough? Studying really is
23:25damn useful. That 400 jin yielded hurt
23:28more than a knife to my heart. Farming
23:30really needs educated people like you
23:32with your technology. I, Wong Dajong,
23:35admit defeat.
23:36>> It's not too late to change your ways.
23:38You're not completely rotten yet. I'll
23:40say it again, my techniques are open to
23:41the entire village. Since you're
23:43convinced, starting tomorrow, you'll be
23:45in the front row of the night school
23:46taking notes obediently. Just follow my
23:48rules and I'll lead you all to
23:49prosperity.
23:51>> Even Dajong is learning from him now.
23:53From now on, Taohua Village will only
23:54trust Shen Yan.
23:57>> Shen Yan, big news. A top-tier
23:59supermarket chain is interested in our
24:00produce. A 5-million exclusive order has
24:02been finalized. 3-days deadline. Can we
24:05cultivate high-quality crops?
24:06>> No problem. It's settled. Let them
24:08witness the true achievements of
24:09agricultural planting.
24:11>> Better a bad pen than a good memory.
24:13These scientific methods are real skills
24:15that can help everyone earn more.
24:17Teacher Shen speaks the truth. If we
24:18follow him, our lives will definitely
24:20get better and better.
24:23>> Teacher Shen, I want to ask, when is the
24:25best time to apply fertilizer?
24:27Was it too late before when we only
24:28added it after the seedlings turned
24:30yellow?
24:30Yeah, and what about pests and diseases?
24:33Isn't it easier to prevent them
24:34beforehand?
24:35>> Old man Li, you hit the nail on the
24:36head. Waiting until the seedlings turn
24:38yellow to fertilize is like eating only
24:39after you fainted from hunger. It's less
24:41effective.
24:43Scientific farming means applying
24:44fertilizer precisely as needed during
24:46each growth stage.
24:47Preventing pests and diseases early is
24:49far more effective than trying to fix it
24:51afterward.
24:52>> So, that's how it is. Before, I was just
24:54blindly busy relying on experience. Now,
24:56with science, everything is clear. For
24:58our village to develop, everyone needs
25:00to work together with one mind and one
25:02goal, to make good products on a large
25:04scale and build a reputation.
25:06Are you all willing to work together?
25:07We're willing to follow Teacher Shen and
25:09make our lives prosperous. The premium
25:11orders from high-end supermarkets in the
25:12city have been confirmed. In the coming
25:14days, in the coming days, let's all work
25:15together to cultivate with care,
25:17implement the techniques every step of
25:18the way, grow quality produce, and make
25:20Taihua Village's future brighter and
25:21brighter. Let's work together to
25:23increase income and get rich. Rural
25:25revitalization. Look closely. Peat moss,
25:27sealing soil, perlite, strictly mixed in
25:30a golden ratio of 3:1:1.
25:32The nighttime temperature must not drop
25:34below 15° C.
25:36This isn't just growing seedlings, it's
25:37crafting precision industrial products
25:39for a 5 million yuan order.
25:41>> Boss Shen, we we don't dare to plant
25:43this. We've never even seen such
25:45high-end varieties. What if we mess it
25:47up? Our whole family will starve this
25:49year.
25:49>> Yeah, yeah. A 5 million yuan order?
25:52That's too much pressure. We've only
25:53ever grown cheap stuff for generations.
25:55How can our rough hands handle such
25:56precious seedlings?
25:59>> Afraid of failure? You don't even have
26:01the courage to try something new. Just
26:03sticking to the old ways, afraid to
26:04change. Then you'll just keep farming
26:06the old way, watching others increase
26:08their income and live better lives with
26:09new methods, while you stay stuck in
26:10place. I'll handle the full technical
26:12monitoring. I'll set the parameters and
26:14standards. I'll guarantee the
26:16technology. As long as you strictly
26:17follow my rules. If we lose money, it's
26:19on me, Shen Yan. I'll sell everything I
26:21own to compensate you. But if we make a
26:23profit, that 5 million will be
26:25distributed among everyone in the
26:26village based on their work. Not a
26:28single cent less. Now, who's still
26:30afraid to plant?
26:31>> Boss Shen is putting his whole fortune
26:32on the line. What are we still scared
26:34of? Let's go for it. We'll plant it even
26:36if it kills us.
26:37>> Since everyone is willing to work
26:39together, then let's push full speed
26:40ahead. Work hard for 7 hours. I want
26:43100,000 top-grade strong seedlings from
26:45this greenhouse. Let the bosses in the
26:47city see the industrial miracle of our
26:48Taihua Village.
26:51>> It's been raining for 3 days straight.
26:53The fields are flooded. The water's over
26:55the furrows. How are we going to get
26:57through this mud?
26:59The peppers are delicate. It's all over.
27:02That $5 million order is completely
27:04gone.
27:05>> Stop digging. It's no use.
27:10This rain is too heavy. The fields are
27:12all flooded.
27:13The harvest is probably going to be
27:15severely affected. We can't fight
27:17natural disasters. We have no other
27:19choice but to accept our fate.
27:24>> Accepting fate? That word has never been
27:26in Shen Yan's dictionary. No one is
27:28going to stop us from increasing our
27:29income. Even if we face a natural
27:31disaster, we must do our best to salvage
27:33what we can, reduce losses, and get back
27:35the money we deserve. Don't be so
27:37discouraged. The peppers are drowning
27:38because their roots are suffocating from
27:40lack of oxygen. As long as we drain the
27:42water, the seedlings will live.
27:44Everyone, listen up. Following the
27:45terrain, every 5 m, immediately dig
27:47deep, funnel-shaped drainage ditches.
27:50Men, dig 30 cm deep. Women, immediately
27:53ridge up along the rows and mound soil
27:54to protect the roots. Quickly.
27:56>> Boss Yan hasn't given up, so let's
27:58fight. Let's snatch money from the
27:59heavens. Work for 2 hours. Remember the
28:02plants' limit for suffocation. We must
28:04drain all the water from these 100 acres
28:05within 2 hours. It's a race against
28:07time. The lifeline of the entire village
28:09depends on these 2 hours.
28:12>> Thank goodness, we saved it. Over 100 mu
28:14of good crops are all safe. Look at the
28:15fields next door. They didn't use high
28:17ridges or drain early. Their losses are
28:18huge. Thanks to Boss Yan's advice to dig
28:20ditches and drain water, our crops were
28:22saved. What a close call.
28:23>> Shen Yan, you are truly Taohua Village's
28:26great benefactor. Thanks to you, our
28:29entire village's harvest is safe. Thank
28:31you so much.
28:32>> From now on, if anyone dares to say a
28:34bad word about Shen Yan, I, Wong
28:37Dajiong, won't stand for it. I won't let
28:39them get away with it.
28:41>> I'm no benefactor. We worked together.
28:44What saved our harvest and will lead us
28:45to a better life is never luck, but
28:47scientific farming and hard work. The
28:49deep ditches and high ridges I insisted
28:50on before planting were for this very
28:52moment of flood drainage. Disaster
28:54prevention and mitigation techniques
28:55from books, the earlier you use them,
28:57the sooner you benefit. Use them late
28:58and you'll lose the entire harvest.
29:00Today's rain is the most practical proof
29:02of that. From now on, anyone who's
29:04sloppy with standardized operations or
29:05doesn't follow scientific methods, don't
29:07bother working with us anymore. We're
29:08completely devoted. We'll follow Boss
29:10Yan's every command. Completely devoted.
29:12Completely devoted. The land is good.
29:14Team is reorganized. The disaster is
29:16over. Next, it's time for us to go to
29:18the city and earn back those 5 million
29:20in real money, principal and interest.
29:23How could you do this? Who told you to
29:25bring this pesticide into the fields?
29:26>> Boss Yan, we have to spray or it's over.
29:29Look at these bugs. They multiply tens
29:31of thousands of times overnight. If we
29:33don't spray soon, all the leaves will be
29:35eaten.
29:36It'll be a total crop failure.
29:37>> Yeah, Boss Yan, this pest infestation is
29:40too severe. Traditional methods can't
29:42control it at all. Only this pesticide
29:44can wipe them all out.
29:46>> It's a 5 million yuan order. If the bugs
29:48eat everything, what will we deliver?
29:50Spray it. There's really no other way.
29:53>> Spray?
29:54You spray that, the bugs might die, but
29:56this 5 million yuan order will die with
29:58them. High-end supermarkets demand
30:00premium green vegetables with zero
30:02pesticide residue. One drop of highly
30:04toxic pesticide, the detection
30:05instrument takes a scan, and the entire
30:07village's reputation will be completely
30:09ruined. Are you prepared to pay tens of
30:11millions in breach of contract fees?
30:13Just watch. Aphids are strongly
30:14attracted to yellow. Hang 30 yellow
30:16sticky traps per mu. That's physical
30:18trapping. Then, release ladybugs, using
30:21insects to eat insects. This is called
30:23biological control. Finally, spray silk
30:25grass ash solution to adjust the pH of
30:27the leaf surface, inhibiting aphid
30:29breeding at the source. Physical control
30:31combined with biological methods. This
30:33is the scientific, efficient, and
30:34effective way in modern agriculture.
30:36>> No pesticide? Just these yellow papers
30:38and tiny bugs? Can they really handle
30:40such a massive aphid infestation?
30:42That's a huge risk.
30:43>> In 24 hours, by this time tomorrow, I'll
30:45show you all how to completely control
30:47this pest infestation by utilizing
30:49natural laws and scientific prevention.
30:54The aphids are completely under control.
30:56Can't find a single one. That's
30:58incredible. He completely controlled
31:00such a huge insect infestation without
31:02using a single drop of pesticide. Boss
31:04Yan, now this is a true agricultural
31:06expert. I'm convinced. This time, I'm
31:09truly completely convinced. I've been
31:11working the land my whole life, and I'm
31:13still not as good as someone who's just
31:15studied for a few years.
31:16Traditional pest control methods are
31:18harmful, but his scientific pest control
31:20is life-saving.
31:25Now you know why I didn't let you use
31:27those toxic chemicals. Spraying
31:29pesticides not only ruins our
31:30reputation, but it also stops plant
31:32growth for 3 days. We use green
31:34prevention and control, physical and
31:35biological pest control, which protects
31:37the plant's most natural growth state.
31:39This is not only safe and
31:40pollution-free, but it also
31:41significantly improves the quality,
31:43taste, and nutrition of our chili
31:44peppers. It's a key method for
31:46scientific farming, outstanding quality
31:48with no pesticide residue. It's a
31:50win-win for both sides. This is our
31:52confidence in expanding the market,
31:53relying on our product's advantages.
31:57>> Boss Shen, your produce caused a
31:59sensation in the provincial high-end
32:00testing lab. The nutritional content
32:02just exploded off the charts. They've
32:04given the word, "We'll take this whole
32:06batch. Sign the contract immediately,
32:08even before it's ripe." How much per
32:10jin? 3 yuan a jin? 3 yuan? I'll take as
32:13much as you have.
32:14>> 3 yuan is just the beginning.
32:18Anything less than 15 cm long, curved
32:20more than 10°, or with even a slight
32:22scratch on the skin, pick them all out
32:23and put them in the reject pile.
32:25>> The packaging film must be vacuum
32:26sealed, and the label must be scented.
32:29Not even a millimeter off.
32:30>> Oh, my heavens, this is killing me.
32:33Picking peppers is more meticulous than
32:35threading a needle.
32:36>> Exactly. Good enough is good enough. Why
32:38bother with all this trouble?
32:40>> Before, we just put them in bags, tied
32:42them with a big rope, and the buyers
32:44still took them, didn't they?
32:47Good enough is good enough? In high-end
32:49supermarkets, appearance is everything.
32:51It's critical. Even a tiny flaw can ruin
32:53the value of our entire batch of goods.
32:55>> But, but can making them look so good
32:57feed us? They're still going to end up
32:58in the wok, aren't they?
33:00>> Boss Chen buys the bulk bagged goods for
33:02three yuan, but premium products,
33:03strictly graded and with professional
33:05fresh-keeping packaging, can fetch four
33:07yuan and 50 fen at high-end supermarkets
33:08in the county.
33:10>> Ordinary agricultural products are just
33:11common ingredients, but with
33:13standardized packaging and branding, we
33:14can elevate their value and gain
33:16corresponding brand revenue.
33:17>> An extra one yuan and 50 fen per jin.
33:19Everyone worked through the night,
33:20meticulously packing the goods.
33:22>> The first batch of 5,000 jin of premium
33:23goods has already been shipped. Will the
33:25discerning customers in the county's
33:27high-end supermarkets approve of this
33:29batch of goods?
33:30>> The goal isn't just to gain approval.
33:31It's for the goods to sell out quickly,
33:33to make Taohua Village's agricultural
33:35products famous in the local fresh
33:36produce market.
33:40>> This
33:42This spiciness, this crisp texture, and
33:44this rich, sweet aftertaste. Absolutely
33:45superb. This is three grades better than
33:47our imported high-end products. Boss
33:49Chen, CEO Su, say no more. Four yuan and
33:5150 fen is the highest historical price
33:53for fresh produce in our supermarkets.
33:55As long as you guarantee this quality,
33:56Wanchonglong will take all your goods
33:58year-round. Let's sign a long-term
34:00contract for four yuan and 50 fen right
34:01now.
34:02>> My goodness. Before, we had to beg
34:04people to buy it for one yuan a jin.
34:07>> Signed. They really signed a long-term
34:09contract. Four yuan and 50 fen a jin.
34:11This is the result of dedicated research
34:13and hard work. With our professional
34:15skills, Taohua Village is collectively
34:17striking it rich.
34:19Don't celebrate too soon. Why are they
34:21willing to pay four yuan and 50 fen?
34:22It's because of scientific cultivation
34:24and standardized quality control. It's
34:26because of the zero pesticide technical
34:27quality we've accumulated. It's because
34:29of our brand with standardized sorting.
34:31Quality plus brand is the confidence
34:33behind that 400,000 and 50,000. This is
34:35the iron rule of modern agriculture.
34:38>> Boss Shen, Boss Shen, it's not bad news.
34:41No, it's great news. The news about our
34:43village signing that 5 million yuan
34:45sky-high contract has spread like
34:46wildfire. People from a dozen
34:48surrounding villages are green with
34:50envy, and they've all rushed into our
34:51compound. We can't stop them. They're
34:54all begging to become your apprentices.
34:56>> Boss Shen, please take us poor folks
34:57along, too. We'll hand over all the land
34:59in our village to you for unified
35:00management, no questions asked.
35:02>> Taohua Village can no longer contain me.
35:04Since you've come to me, I'll take over
35:06all 100,000 mu of your land. My goal is
35:08to build a modern agricultural
35:09industrial scale covering the entire
35:11province.
35:15>> Brother Dajuan, we're all poor relatives
35:17from nearby villages. Please accept
35:19these gifts and let us meet Boss Yan to
35:20learn some techniques.
35:22>> Go. Go. Go. Don't try to butter us up.
35:25His techniques are our village's secret.
35:27Why should we just give them to you for
35:28free?
35:29>> Exactly. Teaching the apprentice starves
35:31the master. Don't you understand?
35:32Scarcity creates value. If they all
35:34learn to grow premium chili peppers, who
35:36are we going to sell our $4.50 ones to?
35:39>> Hear that?
35:40>> It's a trade secret. You guys better
35:42scram. Go back where you came from.
35:43Don't try to steal a livelihood here.
35:46>> Oh, really?
35:48Steal your livelihood? You're sitting at
35:49the bottom of a well thinking the sky is
35:51only as big as the well's mouth, aren't
35:52you?
35:53>> Boss Yan, we're protecting you. If we
35:55teach them, won't our profits be split?
35:58>> In modern business, without scale, you
36:00don't even have the right to sit at the
36:01table and negotiate with capital. A mere
36:03100 mu of land can hardly dominate the
36:04provincial market. A gap in scale makes
36:07you highly vulnerable to low-price
36:08competition. The future of agriculture
36:10is an industrial matrix. It's about
36:11banding together for warmth. Technology
36:14must be completely open. I want to use
36:16technology as a rope to tie all the land
36:17in the surrounding villages to my
36:18chariot.
36:19>> Boss Yan, now this is a man who thinks
36:21big.
36:21>> We'll follow your lead. Take all your
36:23gifts back and sit down to listen to my
36:25lecture. From today on, Shen's
36:27technology will be fully open. You just
36:29focus on growing premium produce. I'll
36:30handle the sales. The first shot for our
36:32100,000 mu base begins tonight.
36:37>> Zhao Ergo, 52,000 yuan. Come get your
36:39money.
36:40>> All right.
36:43>> Oh my goodness. I've been farming my
36:45whole life, and this is the first time
36:47I've seen such a huge return.
36:50>> Son, your dad was wrong.
36:53I almost ruined your bright future.
36:57>> You really didn't waste your education.
36:59You didn't just save our family. You
37:01truly helped the whole village turn
37:03things around.
37:07Boss Yan, no words needed. From now on,
37:09you're the great benefactor of Taihua
37:11Village. Just point the way and we'll
37:13follow.
37:15>> Satisfied with this? Vegetables at 4
37:17yuan and 50 fen a jin are just pocket
37:19change in the real capital market.
37:22I'm leading you to earn this first pot
37:24of gold just so you have the capital to
37:25upgrade your equipment.
37:30This is a top-tier luxury fruit,
37:32Bingtang Lanbaoshi.
37:33The profit from a jin of chili peppers
37:35is considerable, but premium fruits
37:36target the high-end market, yielding
37:38even higher economic value. A 100,000 mu
37:41planting base has been prepared. Next,
37:43we'll work together to open up the
37:44national high-end fruit market and
37:45steadily expand the industry's scale.
37:51>> Boss Shen, aren't we supposed to be
37:52making big money? Why are we planting
37:54peach trees on this godforsaken
37:56mountain? Peaches are the cheapest fruit
37:57out there. Back in the day, during a
37:59good harvest, nobody wanted them even
38:01for 20 cents a pound. They all rotted on
38:04the trees, fed to the pigs. Boss Shen,
38:06we trust you, but planting fruit trees
38:08is different from planting chili
38:09peppers. As the saying goes, peaches in
38:12three, apricots in four, pears in five.
38:15These fruit trees, these golden nuggets,
38:17take at least 3 years to bear fruit.
38:20During these 3 years of no income, with
38:22nothing growing in the fields, how are
38:23we supposed to feed our families? We
38:25can't just live on thin air. Just wait.
38:283 years for peaches? That's ancient
38:30history from 100 years ago. Look
38:32closely. This is a top-tier ultra-early
38:34ripening variety I specially introduced,
38:36the rock sugar blue sapphire honey
38:37peach. Using modern dwarfing and dense
38:39planting techniques, we plant the trees
38:41this year, and they'll bear a full
38:42harvest next year. I've compressed that
38:443-year cycle into just 10 months. Not
38:46only is the cycle short, but its
38:48sweetness reaches 22 Brix. One bite is
38:50sweeter than honey. More importantly,
38:52it's all about timing. It ripens a full
38:54month earlier than ordinary peaches on
38:55the market. It hits the market when
38:57there's absolutely no competition. What
38:59do you call that? Leveraging quality to
39:01create a differentiated high-end market,
39:03selling by limited demand, and thus
39:04establishing a competitive edge in
39:05specialty agriculture. All right, Boss
39:08Shen, just tell us what to do, and we'll
39:10do it. Clear the mountain. Clear 500
39:12acres of barren mountain. Within 7 days,
39:15I want to see terraced fields formed and
39:16pipelines laid. Hard work now will soon
39:19bring rich rewards. Fully reclaim the
39:20mountain land and expand our planting
39:22area for future development. The pits
39:24must be 80 cm long, wide, and deep. Base
39:27fertilizer and topsoil must be mixed
39:29thoroughly and laid at the bottom.
39:30Overly long roots must be pruned to a
39:32smooth cut.
39:33>> Oh, Boss Yan, this isn't planting trees,
39:35it's harder than embroidery. We're all
39:37practically breaking our backs digging.
39:39Isn't planting trees just digging a
39:40hole, burying some dirt, and stomping on
39:42it a couple of times? Just plant it any
39:44old way, and it'll live on its own.
39:46>> Exactly. With your meticulous methods,
39:48we can't even plant 10 trees a day. When
39:50will we ever finish these 500 mu of
39:52land? There's no need to be so
39:53particular.
39:54>> Right?
39:56>> Just plant it any old way, and it'll
39:57live on its own?
39:59>> That's called root girdling. If the
40:01roots can't spread, how will they absorb
40:03nutrients? Within half a month, this
40:05tree will surely die. Deep digging
40:06encourages roots to grow deep. Pruning
40:08damaged roots prevents rot and
40:10infection. Pruning the main stem reduces
40:12water evaporation. Careless planting
40:14means less than half will survive. It'll
40:16take 3 years for the seedlings to
40:17recover. By following precise planting
40:19standards, the seedling survival rate
40:20can reach over 95%. In modern,
40:23standardized agriculture, crude, old
40:25planting methods have no place.
40:27>> They all lived. Not a single one died.
40:29Not even one looks wilted. The
40:31scientific planting technique is
40:32incredibly effective. I'm convinced,
40:34completely convinced. No matter how hard
40:36or tiring, we'll never be lazy again.
40:39Every single bit.
40:40>> Survival is just the first step on the
40:41road to hell. The stronger the seedlings
40:43grow, the more trouble they'll attract.
40:45Get your gear ready. This battle for the
40:47mountain is just beginning.
40:49>> Big trouble. The next village copied our
40:51farming methods, secretly growing chili
40:53peppers.
40:54They're selling their chemical
40:55fertilizer boosted produce in the city
40:57at half price.
40:59Several of our downstream supermarkets,
41:01just to save a buck, canceled our
41:02orders.
41:04>> They're selling for 1 yuan and 50 fen.
41:06We're selling for 4 yuan and 50 fen.
41:09That price difference is just
41:10ridiculous.
41:11>> The market only cares about cheap goods.
41:13With them maliciously undercutting
41:14prices like this, our produce definitely
41:16won't sell. It'll all rot in the
41:17warehouse.
41:22>> What's the panic? Produce forced with
41:24chemical fertilizers, do they really
41:25think they can compete with us?
41:27Do you have no faith in my methods, or
41:29no faith in your own judgment?
41:31>> That's true, but to the average
41:32consumer, chili peppers that look
41:34similar are hard to distinguish. How do
41:36we break through this?
41:37>> Then we won't let them guess with their
41:38eyes. Starting today, we're completely
41:40moving away from generic, scattered
41:42produce. We'll register our brand
41:44immediately, customize anti-counterfeit
41:46packaging, and turn our village's
41:47agricultural products into a benchmark
41:48for high-end fresh produce, leaving
41:50low-priced competitors far behind.
41:55>> The Xianglishanpin trademark has been
41:56fully registered across all channels.
41:58From today, all our premium chili
42:00peppers will be packaged in this
42:01high-end battle robe, complete with
42:03independent traceability codes and green
42:05certification. No one can counterfeit
42:07them.
42:07>> Miss Su, this box sure looks fancy, but
42:10no matter how good-looking a paper box
42:12is, it can't be eaten, can it? Exactly.
42:15All this flashy stuff, this little box
42:17must cost quite a few cents, right?
42:19We're selling vegetables. Getting such
42:20expensive boxes, isn't this just pure
42:22extravagance and a waste of money?
42:27>> Extravagance?
42:29Do you even understand what product
42:30added value means?
42:32In high-end supermarkets, this isn't
42:34just a box. It's the consumer's
42:35prestige. It's an endorsement of safety,
42:38guaranteeing zero pesticide residue.
42:40With Xiangxi Shanpin's new packaging,
42:42the retail price has soared directly to
42:445 yuan per jin. A packaging cost of a
42:46few cents brings in a pure profit
42:47increase of over 1 yuan. Can't you
42:50figure out this math?
42:51>> If Wangjia Village wants to play a dirty
42:52game at 1 yuan and 50 fen, let them roll
42:54in the mud by themselves. We're
42:56elevating our game, using a brand mode
42:58to completely shut out the low-end
42:59market. 5 yuan? It's selling for 5 yuan.
43:03Boss Shen and Miss Su are practically
43:04gods of wealth reborn. Look, they're all
43:06switching to the new packaging right
43:07away.
43:09>> It's live. Pre-sales have simultaneously
43:11launched across all high-end online
43:12channels.
43:13>> See that? That's the confidence a brand
43:15brings. In just 10 minutes, 100,000 jin
43:17of goods were sold out. Taohua Village
43:20is shaking up the entire county's fresh
43:21produce market with its strength.
43:24>> Folks in the live stream, this is
43:26Xiangxi Shanpin's 100-acre base.
43:28Truly zero pesticide residue, physical
43:30pest control, and direct cold chain
43:32delivery.
43:33So everyone can enjoy the most premium
43:35organic produce. Just looking at it
43:37makes your mouth water. So everyone can
43:39enjoy the most premium organic produce.
43:41All right, look at this. We want
43:43everyone to enjoy the most premium
43:44organic produce.
43:47>> What premium produce? Isn't it just
43:48rotten vegetables from a rural
43:49greenhouse? Isn't it just rotten
43:51vegetables from a rural greenhouse? Just
43:53leaves, that's all. Look how red it is.
43:55It must have been ripened with hormones.
43:57It must have been ripened with hormones.
43:59Don't be fooled. How good can rural
44:01produce be? 5 yuan a jin? You must be
44:03crazy for money. Everyone, please don't
44:05spread rumors. Our products have
44:07national level certification.
44:11>> Rural produce ripened with chemicals?
44:14Today, I'm going to teach you keyboard
44:16warriors a good lesson. Open your eyes
44:18and see clearly. A sweetness of 12.5,
44:20sweeter than apples on the market. Our
44:22entire base uses physical pest control,
44:24zero hormones, zero pesticide residue.
44:275 yuan a jin, you call it a rip-off, but
44:29to an expert, it's a steal. Don't
44:30believe me, buy it, test it. If you find
44:32even a trace of pesticide residue, I,
44:34Shen Yan, will pay you a million. If you
44:35find even a trace of pesticide residue,
44:37I, Shen Yan, will pay you a million. I,
44:39Shen Yan, will pay you a million.
44:40>> Shen Yan, the back end exploded. It
44:42completely crashed. 5,000 jin sold out
44:44in a single session. All sold out.
44:46Agents from all over the country are
44:48frantically messaging us in the back end
44:49asking for distribution rights.
44:51>> 5,000 jin? That's just a warm-up. Now
44:54that sales channels are open, we'll
44:55expand production at full throttle.
44:57Within 3 days, Xiangye Xianpin will be
44:59on the shelves of major high-end fresh
45:01food stores nationwide.
45:06Oh my goodness, planting a tree this
45:08year and getting fruit next year, it
45:09actually worked. This fruit looks juicy,
45:12but I wonder if it's sweet. Don't tell
45:14me it's just a pretty face, like a
45:15watery radish. This, this, this.
45:20Well, I'll be. It's so sweet, it hits
45:22the back of your throat. Not a hint of
45:24sourness. It's 10 times better than
45:26those peaches in the city supermarkets
45:28that cost dozens of yuan a jin. Is this
45:30even a peach? It's practically a honey
45:32pot growing on a tree.
45:37Open your eyes and look. Brix 18.5.
45:39Ordinary peaches on the market barely
45:41reach 12 brix at best. Anything over 15
45:43brix is considered premium. Over 18 brix
45:46simply doesn't exist in traditional
45:47agricultural markets. Why is it so
45:49sweet? Because I'm using the latest
45:51genetically optimized variety, precise
45:53water control during the fruit expansion
45:54period, forcing it to lock all the sugar
45:56into the flesh, and foliar spraying with
45:58tryptophan amino acids and trace
46:00elements to boost sugar. Growing premium
46:02produce relies absolutely not on luck.
46:04It's hardcore professional technology.
46:07>> Boss Chen, I smelled it from a mile
46:09away. 5 yuan 5 yuan a jin delivered
46:12price. I'll take all the produce on this
46:14mountain. Who dares to compete with me?
46:16I'll fight him to the death. Peaches for
46:185 yuan a jin.
46:19>> How many 5 million yuan would this
46:20mountain sell for? Selling such
46:22high-quality produce by weight, that's a
46:23terrible waste of a treasure. From today
46:26onwards, my Bingtang lychee won't be
46:28sold by weight. They'll all be sold by
46:29the piece. If I don't increase the price
46:31tenfold, I'd be shaming Shen's
46:32agriculture.
46:37The packing speed is too slow. The high
46:39temperature is ripening them too fast.
46:41If we leave them for 2 more days, all
46:42100,000 catties of these premium fruits
46:44will turn to mush. Take out all the
46:46money you just received. We need to
46:48immediately raise funds to build three
46:49micro-controlled atmosphere cold storage
46:51units at the east end of the village.
46:53>> Mr. Shen wants to build those big
46:54freezers. That will cost hundreds of
46:56thousands. Our money hasn't even warmed
46:59up yet.
46:59>> Yeah, Mr. Shen. What if the cold storage
47:02uses too much electricity and isn't
47:03worth it? Why don't we just sell them
47:05cheaper to Boss Chen quickly? A bird in
47:07hand is worth two in the bush.
47:11>> Sell them cheaper?
47:13If you put them all on the market at
47:14once and you can't sell them all in one
47:16day, you'll have to lower the price and
47:17beg people to buy them. Selling premium
47:19luxury goods like rotten cabbage, you
47:21are all so short-sighted. Controlled
47:23atmosphere cold storage can put the
47:24fruits into deep dormancy. It can extend
47:26the shelf life to 15 days. In half a
47:28month, while everyone else's peaches on
47:30the market have rotted away, we'll bring
47:31out our fresh batch. And what do we call
47:33that? Market timing. A single peach
47:36could fetch 88 yuan, a nearly 20-fold
47:38increase. The cold storage investment
47:40will pay for itself in just 2 days.
47:42Electricity costs will be negligible.
47:44Staggered shipping, taking control of
47:45the market. Let's build that cold
47:47storage immediately as instructed.
47:48Stabilizing sales and pricing. Build it.
47:50Build it now. We'll sell everything we
47:51own to build it. Who dares stop us from
47:53selling for 88 yuan? I, Al Tan, will
47:56fight him to the death. Construction
47:57team, move in. Everyone, work around the
47:59clock. 48 hours of continuous work. The
48:02cold storage is complete. Just half a
48:03month later, this batch of peaches will
48:05make a powerful debut, sweeping the
48:07entire fresh produce market.
48:09>> This is Karma, poor Karma. We thought if
48:10we just bought the same saplings, we'd
48:12get rich like you. But all we grew were
48:14sour, rock-hard fruits. Forget selling
48:16them at a high price, even giving them
48:17away for free, people complained they
48:19were too sour. Hundreds of acres of land
48:21all rotten on the trees. Our village is
48:22completely bankrupt.
48:24>> Back then, your village was jealous of
48:25our chili sales and secretly tried to
48:27compete, starting a price war. Well,
48:29this time, you tried to steal a chicken,
48:31but lost the rice, didn't you? You
48:33didn't even learn a fraction of what our
48:35boss Shen knows. Go on, dream your
48:37impossible dreams.
48:40You thought secretly buying the same
48:41saplings was the secret to wealth?
48:47If agriculture were that simple, there'd
48:49be millionaires everywhere. A good
48:50variety is just the entry ticket. Deep
48:52soil improvement, trace element foliar
48:54sprays during flowering, precise
48:55temperature, light, and water control
48:57during fruiting. Miss one data point,
48:59and you end up with this kind of
49:00unwanted produce. Those who don't rely
49:02on hardcore technology and science, but
49:04on speculation and blindly following
49:05trends, will ultimately lose everything.
49:08>> Boss Shen, we were wrong. Please, show
49:10us a way out.
49:11>> Get up. I said before that all my
49:13technology would be open source, and I
49:14won't go back on my word. Since you've
49:16learned your lesson, starting tomorrow,
49:18all 100,000 acres of barren land in the
49:20surrounding area will be incorporated
49:21into Shen's agriculture. Let national
49:23distributors know that this place, with
49:25the standards set by Shen Yan, will be
49:26the benchmark for the high-end market.
49:29We've already saturated the market for
49:30fresh fruits and vegetables. Next, we'll
49:32fully focus on agricultural product deep
49:34processing. We'll build factories, set
49:36up production lines, and create products
49:38like chili sauce, canned peaches, and
49:39dried fruits to deeply explore the
49:40industry's value. Every agricultural
49:43product will be converted into tangible
49:44profit.
49:45>> That's brilliant. What a brilliant move.
49:46Fresh fruits can rot or be unsellable,
49:48but canned goods and chili sauce can
49:50last a year without spoiling. Now, even
49:52imperfect or unsold fruits can be fully
49:54utilized, completely solving the problem
49:56of spoilage. From now on, no matter how
49:58the market changes, we won't have to
50:00worry about fruit piling up or losing
50:02money. Good.
50:05If you think building a factory is just
50:06to deal with unsellable or defective
50:08products, to clean up a mess, then your
50:09mindset will forever be stuck in
50:11small-scale farming, narrow-minded and
50:12pathetic. Listen up. Primary
50:14agricultural products will always be at
50:16the bottom of the industrial chain. A
50:18pound of chili sells for 5 yuan.
50:20Processed into high-end, additive-free
50:22chili sauce with exquisite packaging,
50:23the price can reach 40 yuan per unit.
50:25The added value increases significantly.
50:27Extend the industrial chain, build a
50:29complete industrial closed loop,
50:30solidify competitive advantages, and
50:32control market initiative.
50:35Deep processing, deep value extraction,
50:37Chen's agriculture is unstoppable. Start
50:40the machines. Today, the motors begin
50:41operation. Everyone, from now on, we bid
50:44farewell to farming at the mercy of
50:45nature and become the first batch of
50:47industrial practitioners.
50:48Full speed ahead to complete the factory
50:50buildings. Let Tao Hua Village fill the
50:52shelves of supermarkets nationwide.
50:54>> We're back. We all quit our jobs and
50:55came back. Working 996 like a dog in the
50:58city is nothing compared to coming back
50:59and building an empire with Boss Yan.
51:01Does Boss Yan's processing plant need
51:03people? I majored in mechanical
51:04automation. I studied e-commerce
51:06operations. We also want to be part of
51:08the provincial and municipal
51:09agricultural force.
51:10>> Our Tao Hua Village this time, it's
51:12truly come alive. Ah, before, the young
51:14folks in the village would break their
51:15necks to rush to the city. The village
51:18couldn't even find strong laborers for
51:19heavy work. Now, they're lining up to
51:21come back home. This is simply a
51:23miracle, a complete transformation.
51:25>> Can't hack it in the city anymore? Think
51:27you can come back to the village and
51:28just chill, retire?
51:31If you're still holding on to such
51:32passive thoughts, pack up and leave now.
51:36Shen's empire does not tolerate
51:38mediocrity. The countryside is never
51:40short of opportunities. It lacks
51:41hardcore technology and business acumen.
51:44Standing here today, use your knowledge
51:45and expertise to completely shatter old,
51:47outdated notions.
51:50Reshape agriculture with industrial
51:52standards and rewrite the destiny of our
51:53homeland with strength. This is our
51:55generation's responsibility. Awakening
51:57of the bloodline, reshaping agriculture,
51:59all united, swear to follow Shen's
52:01empire to the death. Together, we forge
52:03ahead. The talent is in place. The
52:05infrastructure is fully formed. The
52:07first phase of small-scale ventures ends
52:09here. Next, we cultivate entirely new
52:11varieties and build a world-class
52:13specialty agricultural town.
52:16>> Paternal flood-resistant gene extraction
52:18confirmed. Maternal high-sweet,
52:20high-yield genes in place. Shen Yang's
52:22artificial cross-pollination complete.
52:24It all comes down to this.
52:26>> What's Boss Yang doing now? Poking
52:27around the flowers with those little
52:29tweezers. What kind of miracle is he
52:30trying to grow?
52:32Boss Yang, our Xiang Ye Xian Bin is
52:34already selling for 5 yuan a catty.
52:36Exactly. The old varieties are making so
52:38much money already. Why are you still
52:40cooped up in this net house messing with
52:42new varieties, working so hard for
52:43nothing? Will these new hybrids really
52:45be better than the old ones?
52:48Satisfied with 5 yuan a catty?
52:50No matter how good the old varieties
52:52are, a heavy rain can still wipe out a
52:54third of them. A mutated downy mildew
52:56can have the yield. That's just relying
52:58on luck. I'm doing hybrid breeding to
53:00forge category dominance, to combine
53:02flood resistance, disease resistance,
53:04high yield, and high sweetness to
53:06cultivate superior varieties.
53:08The new varieties can withstand risks
53:10far better than ordinary ones and firmly
53:12control the market with their
53:13advantages.
53:14>> Oh, my heavens. Are these even peppers?
53:15They're hanging heavier than apples on a
53:17tree. At least 30 catties on one plant.
53:19>> See that? That's the absolute dominance
53:20brought by genes, invincible against
53:22disasters, explosive yield per plant.
53:25Starting tomorrow, the entire village
53:26will switch to large-scale replanting.
53:28We'll restructure the supply chain with
53:30new varieties and eliminate old
53:32competitors.
53:34>> Soil trace element test complete. Severe
53:37boron deficiency. Go to window number
53:39two for two free bags of boron
53:40fertilizer. Mix with water and spray.
53:43You'll see results in 3 days.
53:45>> Oh my heavens, even the dirt can be
53:47analyzed by machines now.
53:50>> This is so convenient.
53:52Boss Shen, you've truly brought great
53:54blessings to us farmers.
53:56>> Before, when we had crop diseases, we
53:58just bought random medicines.
54:00Now, we get free testing and diagnosis.
54:03Boss Shen genuinely helps us farmers.
54:06>> Stand up straight. Don't kneel. I spent
54:08millions building this station, buying
54:10these instruments, not for fame.
54:11Expensive instruments, empty talk, and
54:13papers are all pseudoscience. If
54:15technology doesn't get its hands dirty
54:17in the mud of the countryside, if it
54:18doesn't turn into tangible yields in
54:19your hands, it's just a pile of
54:21worthless scrap metal. Empowering
54:23farmers with technology and building a
54:24modern agricultural team, this is my
54:26original intention and my commitment.
54:28>> Shen Yan is out of control. His
54:30reputation has spread far and wide, not
54:32just the surrounding 10 villages.
54:34Large-scale growers from two neighboring
54:35counties are driving here, lining up
54:37overnight for help.
54:38>> Boss Shen, please save our orchards. As
54:40long as you can cure it, we'll follow
54:42your lead for all the land in our
54:43county.
54:44>> Seeking medical advice, seed formulas,
54:46locking in users, and exclusive
54:48technological blueprint.
54:50From today onwards, this place will no
54:52longer be an inconspicuous village-level
54:54service point.
54:55It will become the supreme command
54:57center, overseeing 100,000 mu of
54:58agricultural bases in Dexi Bay.
55:01>> The number one village in the whole
55:02province. Number one. Our village, for
55:05generations, toiled in the fields. We
55:08never even dreamed of such a glorious
55:10day.
55:10>> Old Village Chief, you've created a
55:11miracle. You've used the most
55:13cutting-edge technology to transform a
55:14poor village into the strongest in the
55:15county. Empowering minds with knowledge,
55:17reshaping the countryside with
55:18technology, Taohua Village is a model
55:20for new farmers across the province.
55:22>> You flatter us. We used to be
55:24short-sighted, timid frogs at the bottom
55:26of a well.
55:27>> It was Boss Yan who awakened this land
55:29of ours. All this wealth, it's all Shen
55:31Yan's doing.
55:34>> Mr. Shen, you've single-handedly
55:36revolutionized the agricultural
55:37landscape of our entire county.
55:39Agriculture must no longer be equated
55:40with cheap labor. We must reclaim
55:42pricing power. With precise data and a
55:44complete industrial system, it
55:45completely overturns the existing value
55:47structure of agriculture. Being first in
55:49the province is just an entry ticket.
55:51Today, in front of the province's media,
55:52I, Shen Yan Yan, officially announce
55:54that Shen's agriculture is launching its
55:56shareholding reform. Within 3 months,
55:58the Anti-Shin Technology Shadow Award,
56:00within 3 months, lead the villagers to
56:02land on the capital market. The Shin
56:03Shao Bi Ao Ying Award brings villagers
56:05to the capital market. Bring local
56:07residents to the capital market.
56:08Bringing villagers to the capital
56:09market. Revitalizing the province's
56:11science and technology demonstration
56:12pool. Let Peach Blossom Village top
56:15global agriculture.
56:18>> The provincial capital's blood sucking
56:19capitalists set ridiculously harsh
56:21conditions for the gambling agreement.
56:23They're convinced that a team of
56:24muddy-legged farmers can't handle the
56:26capital market.
56:29But I, Su Hei,
56:30signed it with my entire fortune.
56:34>> Oh my heavens, Miss Su is betting her
56:36life on our boss, Shen. This is more
56:38exciting than TV. Come on, come on, get
56:41together. If these two get married,
56:43Taohua Village will surely shake the
56:44heavens.
56:45>> Shen Yan, I like you.
56:48Not because of how much money you can
56:49make, but because with your extreme
56:51professionalism and determination, you
56:53can turn a desperate situation into a
56:54miracle. Be my man. I'll handle the
56:57business back end for you. We'll conquer
56:59new territories together. Do you dare to
57:00accept?
57:01>> You're proposing to me with this piece
57:02of scrap paper?
57:04Miss Su, you've underestimated my dowry.
57:07I like you, too.
57:09But you won't have to carry the back end
57:10alone.
57:11From now on, I'll share half of this
57:13100,000 mu empire with you.
57:15We'll rule this land together.
57:17>> All right.
57:18>> Together, a powerful alliance,
57:20invincible.
57:22The battle of Taohua Village is
57:23successfully concluded. Tomorrow, with
57:25our cutting-edge agricultural tools,
57:27we'll march into the provincial capital,
57:28ascend the capital stage, and let the
57:30world hear the voice of Taohua Village.
57:33>> The five core villages around us,
57:35totaling 30,000 mu, have all signed
57:37agreements for the expansion of chili
57:38and peach production. From now on, these
57:41five villages will fully implement the
57:43iron rule of three unifications: unified
57:45technical standards, unified rural fresh
57:46store branding, and unified channel
57:48sales.
57:50>> Boss Yan, all us dirt farmers from these
57:52five villages are putting our lives in
57:53your hands.
57:55>> Follow Shen Yan and you'll get rich with
57:56your eyes closed.
57:57>> Just say the word, Boss Yan, and we
57:59won't sleep tonight. We'll go clear the
58:01land right away.
58:03>> We definitely won't hold Shen's group
58:04back.
58:05>> If getting rich just means I, Shen Yan,
58:07make tens of millions and drive a luxury
58:09car, that's not getting rich. That's
58:11exploitation. One person getting rich is
58:13never truly rich. Everyone getting rich,
58:15that's the real golden rice bowl.
58:16Uniting forces and building an
58:18industrial community is not only the key
58:19to revitalization, but also a solid
58:21barrier against external capital. I want
58:23to ensure that within these tens of
58:24thousands of mu of land, there are no
58:25poor people. We'll develop together. No
58:28one can touch us.
58:29>> Develop together. Develop together.
58:31Develop together.
58:32>> The production from these 10,000 mu of
58:33contiguous land has completely exploded.
58:36This is already the most impressive
58:37agricultural calling card in the entire
58:39province.
58:40>> The calling card is ready, and our
58:41foundation is rock solid. With this ace
58:43up our sleeve, we'll strike directly at
58:45the heart of the provincial capital's
58:46finance. The real show is just
58:48beginning.
58:51>> Senior Shen Yan, we saw all the reports
58:53about you in the provincial capital. A
58:5510,000-acre industrialized base, a
58:56complete set of biological gene
58:57selection, Boss Yan, we've quit
58:59everything for you.
59:00>> Sales offers from those pesticide and
59:01feed factories in the city, we've come
59:03to join you, Boss Yan. We want to do
59:05scientific research with you.
59:07>> Oh my, so many delicate young folks.
59:10What are you all doing here?
59:12How can hands used to holding pens wield
59:14a hoe? One day in the sun, and you'll
59:16all be wiped out. Boss Yan, feeding so
59:18many useless scholars isn't it just a
59:20waste of money?
59:24>> In my 10,000-acre base, with eight-axis
59:26drone seeders, anyone who still relies
59:28on manual hoes will be fired.
59:31Graduating from agricultural university
59:33isn't about becoming a salesman for a
59:34fertilizer factory. The countryside is
59:36the two vast ocean of stars. Your
59:38weapons are code, drones, and gene
59:40sequencers. Using cutting-edge knowledge
59:42to build a digital hub for 100,000 acres
59:44of farmland. That's the true calling of
59:46new agriculturalists.
59:49>> Rejecting internal competition, arming a
59:51hometown with knowledge, the Shen's
59:52research team is fully reported. Good.
59:54The research
59:55>> matrix is officially closed loop. The
59:56elite are assembled with research at the
59:58core. Follow me. Let's march into the
1:00:00provincial capital. With the power of
1:00:01the soil, we will dimensionally crush
1:00:03capital.
1:00:07>> You guys, you won't believe this. This
1:00:09isn't a village, it's a sci-fi
1:00:10blockbuster of future agriculture.
1:00:12>> Mom, look.
1:00:13Over there.
1:00:15There's a giant robot giving the peach
1:00:16trees a checkup.
1:00:18So cool.
1:00:19I want to play here all day.
1:00:21>> City bosses, don't miss out. Authentic
1:00:24farm eggs. 1 yuan each. Cheap.
1:00:30>> 1 yuan for a farm egg? I spent tens of
1:00:32millions creating a top-tier sci-fi
1:00:34agriculture IP. I'm bringing in these
1:00:36high-net-worth clients from the city,
1:00:37and you plan to use this cheap, common
1:00:39street vendor stuff to handle
1:00:40agriculture and tourism? I didn't tell
1:00:42you to downgrade our base into a shabby
1:00:43farm stay.
1:00:44What you should be selling are tickets
1:00:46to Shen's high-tech experimental store.
1:00:48And panoramic stargazing eco cabins for
1:00:50500 yuan a night. We use high-end
1:00:52services to capture traffic, achieving
1:00:53dimensional reduction for sheer
1:00:55capability. Let customers willingly
1:00:57spend and stay rooted here.
1:00:58>> Daily revenue exceeded 1 million. Shen
1:01:00Yan's research and study IP has
1:01:02completely gone viral, becoming the
1:01:04second major revenue engine after
1:01:05agricultural products.
1:01:07>> Engine, right? The cash flow has already
1:01:09benefited neighboring industries. We're
1:01:12immediately entering the capital market.
1:01:15>> Mr. Shen, let's be direct. For a
1:01:17mud-footed peasant like you, building
1:01:18this kind of foundation is no small
1:01:20feat. Become CEO of a provincial
1:01:22agricultural enterprise with 80 million
1:01:23in stock options. Abandon your villages
1:01:25and your technology and you'll instantly
1:01:27join the elite financial circles.
1:01:30>> 80 million?
1:01:31>> Boss Yan, he wouldn't really be bought
1:01:33off by some big city boss, would he?
1:01:35>> If Boss Yan leaves, who will lead our
1:01:37100,000 mu of land? We roughnecks will
1:01:40just go back to being poor wretches
1:01:41digging for food in the mud again.
1:01:47>> 80 million?
1:01:49Elite financial circles? You think a bit
1:01:51of pocket money can buy out the 100,000
1:01:53mu empire I built with my own hands? You
1:01:55think it can sever my blood ties to this
1:01:56land? The people outside are never a
1:01:58burden. They're the most solid
1:01:59foundation of Shen's agriculture. I
1:02:01studied agriculture for the farmers. My
1:02:03roots will always be in this soil. My
1:02:05original intention remains unchanged. My
1:02:07value will crush profit-driven capital.
1:02:09Put away your empty chips and get back
1:02:11to the provincial capital. Tell the
1:02:12board that Taohua Village will never
1:02:14compromise. Your only option is to
1:02:15surrender.
1:02:16>> Boss Yan isn't leaving. Boss Yan hasn't
1:02:19abandoned us. Let's follow Shen Yan and
1:02:21fight those capitalists to the end.
1:02:23>> You want to hollow out my heart before
1:02:25the IPO?
1:02:26Too bad you miscalculated.
1:02:29Since the capitalists can't hold back
1:02:31and have bared their fangs, we don't
1:02:32need to hide anymore, either.
1:02:34Transmit my orders. Reveal all of the
1:02:35base's production capabilities and trump
1:02:37cards. Tomorrow, the entire army will
1:02:39march on the provincial capital. I will
1:02:41personally pay them a visit and smash
1:02:42all their market share to pieces.
1:02:48>> [bell]
1:02:50>> Shen's agriculture group from the east
1:02:52has successfully listed on Nasdaq today,
1:02:54shocking the global capital market. Its
1:02:56market value exceeded 100 billion on the
1:02:57first day, completely rewriting the
1:02:59global pricing power for high-end
1:03:00agricultural products.
1:03:02>> Folks, brothers and sisters, it's been 3
1:03:04years. We've gone from being poor folks
1:03:06who couldn't afford meat to
1:03:07billion-dollar shareholders ringing
1:03:09foreign bells. This toast is for our
1:03:11leader, the true god, Boss Shen, who
1:03:13changed our destiny and turned mud into
1:03:15gold. To Boss Shen, to Shens. A true
1:03:18god?
1:03:21I've never been a god. I'm just an
1:03:23agriculturalist who couldn't stand to
1:03:24see my hometown's land wasted. Couldn't
1:03:26stand to see my fellow villagers
1:03:27exploited by capital. Someone once told
1:03:29me that the countryside was synonymous
1:03:31with backwardness. That agriculture was
1:03:33the lowest rung of the supply chain,
1:03:35pure hard labor.
1:03:36But today,
1:03:38with a hundred billion-dollar stock
1:03:39market value and super genetic
1:03:40technology that crushes the global
1:03:42competition, we've slapped them hard
1:03:43across the face.
1:03:45Knowledge can change destiny, but only
1:03:47by embedding knowledge into this
1:03:48dirtiest of soils can we cultivate a
1:03:50true national treasure.
1:03:51May all agriculturalists in the world,
1:03:53like us, take root in the land, stand
1:03:55tall, and ensure that Chinese farmers
1:03:57always earn their money with dignity.
1:03:59Cheers.
1:04:00>> Shen Yan, we did it. This place really
1:04:02has become the most beautiful place in
1:04:04the world.
1:04:05>> Yes, as long as the roots are still
1:04:07there, this land will always have the
1:04:08vitality to create miracles.
