Steel Tycoon Reborn

Chapter 420: The fog has not dissipated

(Not much to say, add another chapter for the support of the Ximachimo brothers! Hehe...)

By the end of December, the chaotic situation in Donghua City caused by the explosion of the city's steel gradually became clear.

All parties have gradually reached a consensus on the solution to the city's steel crisis.

Provincial Steel has the support of Governor Zhao Qiuhua, and Donghua has the support of Yu Chengzhen, Minister of Organization of the Municipal Party Committee, but if they want to not pay any price, they want to use the state-owned assets to take over the Municipal Steel Group in vain. Said that Tan Qiping and Gao Tianhe were unwilling, and other people in Donghua City would also not be willing.

Although Shigang is a mess, but there are still a few pieces of good meat on him, why give it to Provincial Steel for nothing?

Haifeng and Changqing Group will take over the equity of the joint-venture steel plant and the debt of 120 million yuan originally incurred by Shigang for the capital contribution, and will compensate Shigang with an additional 30 million yuan in cash. This plan can not only make Tan Qiping look good, but also can be accepted by the rest of the municipal party committee and the city steel.

At the end of 1995, 30 million yuan was already huge enough.

After reducing the debt of 120 million yuan, and obtaining another 30 million yuan of funds to supplement, at least it will allow Shigang to get through this year.

Donghua City took a sigh of relief on the municipal steel issue. Even if the provincial steel had Zhao Qiuhua's support, there was no way to be too aggressive.

Even on the plan of merging and reorganizing the city steel, the provincial steel was forced to make greater concessions to the city of Donghua. In addition to taking the whole plate of Shigang and promising to inject funds to rectify production and asset quality, it is also necessary to establish a subsidiary with independent legal person status in Donghua City to ensure that Shigang's tax source remains in Donghua City, and will not Give and go to Xucheng.

With such rapid development of Meishan Iron and Steel, there is actually a lot of pressure on provincial steel.

If the production capacity is surpassed by Meishan Iron and Steel, Provincial Iron and Steel will not only face the problem of losing face, but also means that the industrial policy, finance and other resources that they had previously monopolized will all be allocated a considerable part to Meishan Iron and Steel.

Even after knowing that Donghua City Steel's equity in the joint venture steel plant was cut off, there is more rotten meat left, and Provincial Steel will eat this rotten meat.

Even if the joint venture steel plant is cut out, after the merger of Donghua City Steel, the production capacity of provincial steel can break through the threshold of 2 million tons in one fell swoop.

Provincial Steel not only ranks among the top ten in the industry in terms of production capacity, but also leaves Meigang far behind in terms of production capacity, ensuring its leading position in the province and not being threatened by Meigang; This is also beneficial to the future competition in the provincial steel market.

Larger-scale output and larger-scale market control means that Meishan Iron and Steel's products can be more strongly suppressed in the regional market in the future.

Fuji Steel is more concerned about the interests and layout of the entire industry chain, and at the same time, it must consider controlling the risks of investing in China. The 35% stake in the factory was transferred from Shigang to Haifeng and Changqing Group, as long as Shigang did not withdraw the manpower previously transferred to the joint venture steel factory.

Fuji Steel is not worried about this. The annual salary offered by the joint venture steel mill for management and front-line work is much higher than that of Shigang, which is comparable to that of Meigang. Under such circumstances, almost no one wants to go back to Shigang.

Shen Huai's resignation from Meigang is also a foregone conclusion, and the chairman of Meigang Group is Wang Kangsheng, the old factory director.

Wang Kangsheng laid the foundation for the early development of Meishan Iron and Steel, which was approaching retirement age at this time. It is acceptable to all parties to replace Shen Huai by Wang Kangsheng as the chairman of Meishan Iron and Steel Group. The biggest significance of this move may be the appointment of the chairman of Meishan Iron and Steel Group, which is generated by the board of directors of the group and is no longer directly controlled by the local government.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Tan Qiping also discussed the appointment of Shen Huai to Yushan County as a member of the county party committee, a standing committee member, and an executive deputy county magistrate at the Standing Committee in late December.

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

Just two days after New Year's Day in 1996, the temperature in the morning and evening in Donghua also dropped to around zero, and it was a little warmer at noon. There are only 20 days before the Chinese New Year, and the Wenshan shopping mall is getting busier and busier, so that people can see that the atmosphere of the Spring Festival is getting stronger and stronger.

Because it is close to the workplace, Xiong Dini basically walks home for lunch at noon, and she can help her mother, so that her mother will not be too hard to take care of the children and do housework.

Xiong Dini took the key and opened the door. Seeing Shen Huai and her father sitting at the dining table playing chess, she asked unexpectedly, "Hey, why are you at my house?"

"Oh, I'm going to report to Yushan in two days. I'll come over and say goodbye to Director Xiong," Shen Huai said. "By the way, I'll have another meal with Teacher Bai."

Xiong Dini still didn't understand why Shen Huai gave up the post of Mei Gang and went to Yushan County, a poor county, to be the executive deputy county magistrate?

Xiong Dini went to the bedroom and saw that her daughter was sleeping, she rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen to help her mother.

The food was almost ready. After Shen Huai and her father finished the game of chess, Dini Xiong came over to clear the table. Shen Huai wanted to accompany Xiong Wenbin to drink, and Xiong Dini asked him, "Will you leave and drive by yourself later?"

"I don't have a driver to follow. If I don't drive by myself, can you help me drive?" Shen Huai said.

"Then don't drink anymore," Xiong Dini took away the wine glass in front of Shen Huai, and only poured wine for her dad, "You officials are always pretending to be superficial. It's a set."

Shen Huai smiled bitterly, and could only watch Xiong Dini help him to serve the meal, took the bowl, and said with a self-deprecating expression, "I don't drink alcohol, I can taste Teacher Bai's craftsmanship more carefully."

Bai Sumei glared at her eldest daughter, blaming her for taking care of Shen Huai's affairs, but to put it bluntly, she really couldn't give Shen Huai a drink, otherwise she would just watch him drive after drinking.

Shen Huai grabbed vegetables and cooked rice, and asked Xiong Wenbin, "Old Xiong, you really want to sit on the cold bench now, do you blame me for preventing you from returning to Shigang?"

"Alas," Xiong Wenbin sighed lightly and said, "What can I do if I go back to Shigang, no one else can give me two or three years to clean up Shigang's mess. People who can do things in Shigang are almost all given to Mei. The steel and joint venture steel mills have been dug up. I went to Shigang, no one, just determination, there is no way to clean up this mess. "

"Not necessarily, I think many people will listen to your words and go back to Shigang," Xiong Dini said beside him. "They left Shigang, but Shigang disappointed them too much."

"How is that possible?" Xiong Wenbin laughed, "Now the front-line workers in Mei Steel can get 1,455 yuan a month's salary plus overtime pay, and the joint-venture steel plant will not be lower than this number, everyone is crowding their heads to Mei Steel. Steel is going with the joint-venture steel mill. Who isn’t making a living now? Prices have risen so much, and a monthly salary of 400 to 500 yuan is very difficult to support a family. Now that provincial steel takes over city steel, on the one hand, they To rectify the production of Municipal Steel, cut down tertiary production companies, clear debts, and solve financial problems, there are not so many scruples and involvements; more importantly, Provincial Steel has a large number of technical forces to supplement it, which can help Municipal Steel quickly resume production. , no one can bring Shigang back to life. Moreover, the provincial steel has relatively more funds, and in addition to owning coal and iron mines, it has better control over the market. Moreover, it is also necessary to drag Haifeng and Changqing Group in deeper. How much can I contribute to the development of Donghua..."

Having said this, Xiong Wenbin paused, looked at Shen Huai, and said, "You told me at the beginning that I would not return to Shigang, but I would give Shigang a chance. It seems that your judgment is correct."

"As far as the development trend of the province's steel industry is concerned, integration is far more beneficial than decentralization," Shen Huai said, "Meigang doesn't want to clean up the mess of Shigang, so it is in the overall interests of the province to come here. ."

"In this way, the total production capacity of provincial steel will exceed the threshold of 2 million tons, and the control over the provincial market will be stronger, and it will also be unfavorable for Meigang." Xiong Wenbin said.

"Whether to hold back competitors, or focus on development, run faster, and leave competitors behind, this is the direction of Meigang's future development," Shen Huai said, "If Meigang chooses the former, Meigang's The pattern is too low. I can say that saving steel has never been a goal for Meigang to surpass.”

Xiong Wenbin shook his head and smiled. When Shen Huai said this two years ago, it can be said that he was too arrogant. Now that Shen Huai said this, even Shenggang might not dare to stand up and refute it.

Provincial Steel took over the mess of Shigang to absorb and digest, and was eager to expand the scale of production capacity. In the final analysis, it was under the pressure of Meigang; Governor Zhao Qiuhua was eager to extend his hand to Donghua, which was only one reason.

The first and second plants of Meishan Iron and Steel have been completed. Meixi Power Plant and Meixi Port Wharf are all preparing for the construction of the second phase of the project. The entire industrial structure has been completed.

Meigang only needs two to three years of digestion and stabilization before launching a new project, and it must start with a production capacity of 500,000 tons; it is not impossible for a super-large project of one million tons. In the face of such a strong rise of Mei Steel, how could there be no pressure on the provincial steel in the same province?

"By the way, how many years do you really want to work in Yushan?" Xiong Wenbin asked again, "The environment in Yushan is too harsh, and there are no resources, which is not conducive to your performance..."

"When I first came to Donghua, Donghua was a pool of stagnant water. No one else would stir up the pool of stagnant water. I had to come," Shen Huai said. "Now the water in Donghua looks very muddy, at least compared to the pool of stagnant water before. Much better~www.readwn.com~ can be considered a mess, and I can't stay in Meixi all the time. Donghua has 7 million people, and the per capita income in urban and rural areas is less than 2,000. Although most families can barely survive, But it may also be said that most families live on the poverty line. No matter how well Meixi develops, it is also limited by the pattern. How many people can get rich, and to what extent can it change the overall situation of poverty in Donghua City? Mountains are not my destination, but Meixi will not be my long-term place to stay."

"Oh..." Xiong Wenbin didn't know where Shen Huai's real destination was next, and looked at him suspiciously.

Shen Huai took the chopsticks and poured tea and wrote two words on the table. When Xiong Dini came over to look at them, the two words had already been wiped off by Shen Huai - she pouted in dissatisfaction, but saw her father's eyes smiling I wanted to know more and more what those two words were, but just looking at the stance of Shen Huai and her father, it seemed that she had no intention of letting others know.

Shen Huai looked at his watch and said, "Sun Qiyi came to Donghua today to conduct a thorough investigation of the construction of the joint venture steel plant. If there are no accidents, the entire solution to the municipal steel problem can be determined in two days. However, , they thought that if I drove me to Yushan, I would not be able to disrupt the situation for them, then they made a big mistake. I won't accompany you to drink with Lao Xiong, and I have to rush over to disrupt the situation and make them uncomfortable. "

Xiong Wenbin laughed. (83 Chinese Network)
