Chapter 480 Conversation

After the plane arrived in Yanjing, it was already dark, so Li Gu accompanied Tian Jiageng to stay directly at the Huaihai Hotel. He tossed and turned all night and did not sleep well.

After the meeting at the General Office of the CPC Central Committee in the morning, Tian Jiageng called to Vice Premier Wang Yuan to go over and talk about work alone. Tian Jiageng asked Li Gu to go back to the Huaihai Hotel first and wait for Chen Huai and the others to come.

Li Gu also went to the Huaihai Hotel to contact Chen Huai again. After half an hour, the staff led Chen Huai, Xiong Wenbin, Chen Bing, Zhao Dong, Song Hongjun and others in.

Li Gu is quite familiar with the personnel relationships in Donghua City, but he has not actually met many people. After hearing Chen Huai's introduction to the identities of Xiong Wenbin, Chen Bing and Zhao Dong, he felt a little relieved.

Although Chen Huai did not formally talk about the Xinpu project, he knew that Chen Huai's offer would not be too outrageous.

At eleven o'clock, Secretary Xiao Luo came over with a phone call and told him that Secretary Tian had departed from the State Council and returned to the hotel.

Li Gu took his cell phone to the next room and spoke to Tian Jiageng on the phone, and accompanied Xiong Wenbin and Chen Bing to the hotel with Chen Huai, and reported to Tian Jiageng first:

"…Chen Huai is not very greedy."

Tian Jiageng didn't say anything on the phone, but just smiled and said that he would go back to the hotel soon.

The Xinpu project is quite important to Huaihai Province. Needless to say, the development factors are obvious now. The Ji Group obviously would not mind taking the Xinpu project as the start-up project of the Shanxi Coal East Exit South Line Project to Jihe River, so Huaihai Province should leave the Xinpu project to avoid becoming a handle for political enemies to attack.

The only headache problem is that I am afraid that the conditions offered by Chen Huai are too outrageous: Tan Qiping should be transferred from Donghua, but the key is that after Tan Qiping was transferred from Donghua, how to adjust the Donghua team was a difficult problem.

Chen Huai did not let Wu Haifeng accompany him, but asked Xiong Wenbin and Chen Bing to accompany him - in fact, it left a lot of room for operation for everyone: on the one hand, it would not be too ugly for the province, and on the other hand, it would not squeeze out the interests of other factions in Donghua.

Except for Wu Haifeng, Yang Yuquan, Xiong Wenbin, Chen Bing, or other Mei Gang officials in Donghua are the highest officials at the department level.

Even in order to ensure the implementation of the Xinpu project, it is much easier to accept the promotion of several Meigang officials in the extraordinary way, as long as it is not considered to make exceptions for Wu Haifeng, Yang Yuquan and others, and to promote Xiong Wenbin or Chen Bing in an extraordinary way.

Wu Haifeng, director of Donghua Municipal People's Congress, stepped down from the position of secretary of Donghua Municipal Party Committee. Although he had no direct relationship with Tian Jiageng, it was also a collective resolution made by the provincial party committee before. If Wu Haifeng was allowed to return to the position of secretary of Donghua Municipal Party Committee, there was a theoretical possibility, but Tian Jiageng must still consider the overall prestige of the provincial party committee.

Yang Yuquan is now the deputy mayor, and a normal promotion is to become a member of the Standing Committee. If he is promoted exceptionally, he is at least to serve as deputy secretary of the municipal party committee. On the one hand, this will make the space for the province operate narrow. On the other hand, Mei Gang's traces of leading the nose to the Xinpu project are too obvious, and it is obviously difficult for all parties to accept it easily.

From this point of view, Chen Huai still knows some sense of proportion under his aggressive appearance; as for whether this is the arrangement after the Song Dynasty weighs the pros and cons, Li Gu doesn't know.

******************

"The British government's monetary policy after the war has been strengthening and maintaining the strong position of the British pound in the international monetary system, which has benefited the British financial capital. However, the British local manufacturing industry is trapped in the decline of export trade and has always been difficult to cheer up; and the local market has long been saturated and there is no room for further development. Affected by multiple factors, the trend of de-industrialization of British manufacturing companies in the local area is getting faster and faster. The construction of Meigang No. 2 was under this background. Siyumins Industrial Group needs to abolish its steel plant in Birmingham..."

Tian Jiageng made an appointment to meet in Yanjing temporarily, so naturally to further understand the details of the Xinpu project to make a balance. When Tian Jiageng returned to the hotel from the State Council and exchanged necessary greetings, Chen Huai went straight to the point and went straight to the topic to introduce the background of the launch of the Xinpu project.

"...As Birmingham Iron and Steel Plants account for a small share of West Ouminstein Industrial Group, after the abolition of the Birmingham Iron and Steel Plants, the decline in the local manufacturing industry of West Ouminstein Industrial Group has not improved significantly, especially in crude steel smelting business. The losses in the previous year were very large in the previous year - on the one hand, it was the problem of currency, on the other hand, it was the problem of industrial layout, and on the other hand, it was the problem of labor and environmental costs. Under multiple factors, West Ouminstein Industrial Group had considered it very early to transfer their basic industrial parts overseas . It is also a problem of British monetary policy, which makes Britain's industrial capital output not advantageous; and its relatively conservative corporate culture and unfamiliar with emerging markets, it has caused British companies to expand their industrial operations overseas to be far faster than Japanese and Korean companies. However, it is also the foundation laid by previous cooperation and the construction results of Meigang No. 2, which has made Meigang win the trust of Siyumins Industrial Group. At the end of last year, Butler, senior vice president of Siyumins Industrial Group, visited Meixi, and the two sides began to discuss the possibility of joint ventures in China to build large-scale steel projects."

"Consideration on relocating the 1.8 million tons of full-process blast furnace steel wire of West Ulymins Industrial Group Liverpool Steel Plant to Xinpu, or outside coastal cities with similar geographical conditions as Xinpu, the new production capacity of the technical transformation is 1.2 million tons, and the overall design capacity of the first phase of the Xinpu Steel Plant is initially determined to be 3 million tons. Including supporting projects such as material transport ports, the investment amount of the entire first phase of the project is about 4 billion. Among them, the steel wire equipment, related technologies, and the 3,000 mu of industrial land and port resources required for the construction of the project are converted to about 1.2 billion yuan, accounting for 30% of the shares; the remaining 70% of the shares will be jointly injected by relevant parties of RMB 2.8 billion in foreign exchange or RMB or RMB in a total of 2.8 billion yuan. Among them, the relevant parties have a total of RMB 200 billion in foreign exchange or RMB. Funds. In terms of funds, the preliminary agreement was that Siyumins Industrial Group and Feiqi Industrial Group provided an additional 60 million pounds of funds. Yexin Bank provided Meigang with a project loan of 600 million RMB. Zhongxin Investment, Hongji Investment, and Zhujiang Investment had an additional initial agreement of about 80 million US dollars. At this time, there was a funding gap of less than 1 billion. Huaineng Group will no longer provide additional construction funds to Xinpu Steel Plant, but will build large thermal power plant projects to the steel mills, ports and port supporting industrial parks. The investment scale will not be less than 1 billion RMB; and Huaineng Group has previously obtained 200 million US dollars in bond financing from Berkeley Bank of the United Kingdom and BNP Paribas... "

"After the project is completed, the mineral department of West Eumins Industrial Group will be responsible for providing the required iron ore to Xinpu Steel from Australia and India. Huaineng Group will be responsible for providing the coal resources required for production from the country - and about one-third of the crude steel billets, plates and wires produced will be directly supplied to the manufacturing companies under West Eumins Industrial Group. The rest are mainly considered for sale in the domestic market, or directly consider introducing a large number of steel deep processing enterprises in the project location..."

Listening to Chen Huai's introduction to the specific situation of the Xinpu Steel Plant project with great knowledge, Li Gu was also filled with emotion:

There has never been no love for no reason in this world, nor no hatred for no reason.

When it comes to management, technology and human resources, Li Gu believes that Shenggang is much thicker than Meigang. Meigang has only grown and risen when it stepped on the corpse of Donghua City Steel. However, Chen Huai relied on his achievements in leading Meigang step by step to win the trust of industrial giants such as Xiyumins Industrial Group and Feiqi Industrial. Shenggang and Shigang cannot do this.

Without considering the subsequent port industrial development, the investment amount is about 5 billion yuan, including the first phase of Xinpu Steel Plant project, plus the supporting port and the thermal power plant built by Huaineng Group, and the directly introduced foreign capital will exceed 400 million US dollars - How can Huaihai Province let this project slip through its fingers?

Of course, the Xinpu project has not been officially established, and everything is full of variables. Since Mei Gang has such a deep conflict with the municipal party secretary Tan Qiping, in order to allow the project to eventually settle in Donghua, the province transferred Tan Qiping out of Donghua to open up the new project, and even provided some other necessary conditions, which cannot be considered excessive.

Tian Jiageng asked some questions about project site selection in detail.

Chen Huai said: "Chen Bing once worked in Xiapu. The early survey, planning work of Xinpu Port and the establishment of Xinpu Development Zone were all promoted by him during his tenure in Xiapu. Chen Bing had the most say in the issue of project site selection."

Tian Jiageng nodded to Chen Bing and signaled him to introduce the site selection of the project.

Li Gu also looked at Chen Bing and had never had contact with Chen Bing, who was the general manager of Donghua Jingtou Group and the director of the city in Beijing before, but knew that Donghua Jingtou Group was established after absorbing the assets of Donghua Jingtou Office hotels and municipal forging factories and other municipal enterprises, and mainly participated in the joint venture project of Huailian Heavy Industry. Although the Jingtou Company is wholly owned by the Donghua Municipal Government, because of the early debt agreement of the Municipal Forging Factory, Chen Bing was involved in the Huailian Heavy Industry Project and the deputy mayor Yang Yuquan, the deputy mayor, was taken for granted as a member of the Meigang Group.

Li Gu knew that Chen Bing had served as county magistrate in Xiapu County, but he did not expect that he had promoted the construction of Xinpu Port and Xinpu Development Zone. He thought to himself, it was no wonder that Chen Huai could deceive Tan Qiping and quietly prepare for the Xinpu Steel Plant project. It turned out that Chen Bing and Chen Bing's direct lineman who stayed in Xiapu County were behind him.

Even though Chen Huai looks sharp and aggressive, compared to his achievements in integrating local forces, Tan Qiping, who has worked in the political work system for so many years, is much inferior. Perhaps the difference behind this is as Secretary Tian said, one can lead others to create a new pattern, and the other can only move within the old pattern, and suddenly there is a difference between the top and bottom.

"Donghua is surrounded by the river and sea, with superior geographical conditions, but it has not been fully developed. The existing seaports in Xiapu County are also due to the traditional fishing ports formed in the historical process. They are very small in scale and have almost no large-scale industry." When talking about Xiapu County and Xinpu Port, Chen Bing naturally talked freely. "When Xiapu County established a development zone in 87, it mainly considered connecting with the old urban area and demarcating industrial parks in the south of the city; it also considered developing seaport and port industries, but due to the lack of funds and insufficient industrial supporting facilities, it could not attract any large industrial projects. After the establishment of Xinpu Development Zone in 1992, by this year, the starting areas of less than 1,000 acres have not been filled. But in terms of the natural resources of Xinpu Port, the coastal terrain has been developed. It is vast and complete, and has sufficient land resources for building large industrial projects. Although the early planned area of ​​Xinpu Development Zone was only ten square kilometers, it did not occupy the outside arable land. By blowing sand and reclamation, it could also extend the coastline to the outside, and create tens of thousands of acres of new land every year for industrial project construction. The dozens of kilometers of coastline have excellent deep-water channels that can directly enter more than 30,000 tons of large ships, which can ensure that the annual throughput of the supporting port for the first phase of the Xinpu Steel Plant construction reaches 10 million tons. In the later stage, through the diluted beach channel, a deep-water port of more than 100,000 tons can be directly built on islands three to five kilometers offshore, providing broader development prospects for Xinpu Steel Plant and the later Xinpu industry."
