Steel Tycoon Reborn

Shen Huai invited Yu Wei, Gao Yang, Qi Jingyao and others to sit down in the living room.

Yu Wei said that she would hold a banquet at the State Guest House in the evening, and Xiong Wenbin would accompany Jiang Hua and others to accompany Secretary Zhong of the Provincial Party Committee.

Now that Gu Zexiong has been rushed back to Hong Kong, everyone will no longer bother with his rudeness just now, and the topic will still focus on the issue of port investment.

Baohe Shipbuilding participated in the development and construction of Xipizha Port on a large scale more than two years ago. In addition to establishing joint ventures with Shigang Investment Group and Tianyi Group, it participated in projects such as ports, industrial parks and office buildings in Xipizha. Investment, also read force investment can be said to be the largest shipbuilding base in Huaihai Province at that time Baohe Xicheng Shipyard.

The first phase of Xicheng Shipyard plans to build two large shipyards with a total annual shipbuilding capacity of 200,000 tons.

Before the Southeast Asian financial crisis broke out, shipping in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia declined. The construction progress of Xicheng Shipyard was rapidly advanced to about half in the early stage, and it was also stagnant due to lack of funds and uncertain market prospects.

Although after various efforts, by the end of July this year, the first shipbuilding platform of Xicheng Shipyard was still difficult to complete, but this did not allow Yu Wei to get rid of the accusations within Gujia and Baohe Shipbuilding Industry.

Shen Huai also knew that if he pretended to be sophisticated and played hard-to-get at this time, it would only make Yu Wei sway under the influence of Qi Jingyao and others.

In order not to give Hu Lin, Chen Baoqi and others a chance to mess up the matter behind their backs, he asked Yu Wei, Gao Xinyan and others to sit down, and went straight to the point:

"Mr. Yu told me in Beishan Pengyue that day that he intends to invest in Xinpu Port. Although I didn't have time to talk to President Yu about this issue, I also talked to Hongjun, Zeng Zhirong of Hengyang and Zhou Zhibai of Shipping. We have exchanged opinions. Talking about cooperation is mainly to better solve the problems that everyone is currently facing. For Xiapu County, Xinpu Port will develop into a comprehensive hub port with cross-regional connections. The current construction can only be said to be a hit. Basically, in the future, more resources will be needed to invest and participate. The capital for port construction, excellent and experienced port enterprises and talents, richer business channels, etc., are all within the scope of this resource. Xiapu County welcomes the promotion of Xinpu Port in these aspects. As for the enterprises that have participated in the construction of Xinpu Port, the sooner the scale of logistics transiting through Xinpu Port is required to form a scale, more cooperation is required. In particular, Xinpu Shipping Group, which develops with Xinpu Port as its main port, is still very weak in capital strength, and its fleet capacity is not large. The main development direction for a long period of time in the future needs to be more concentrated in the Zhujiang River and other cities. The ports along the Huaihai Bay area will develop various shipping businesses, while the ocean will mainly focus on relatively narrow fields such as iron ore and coal. I will consider Xiapu County and the enterprises that have participated in the construction of Xinpu Port, including Xinpu Shipping Group, as the The main problems facing Mr. Yu and Mr. Gao are in front of Mr. Yu and Manager Gao. I also want to know what problems Baohe Shipbuilding is currently facing. Can the cooperation between the two parties be beneficial to solving each other's problems? This is the most important thing. Basis for cooperation……"

When local officials face investors, their tone of voice will be sincere and enthusiastic. Qi Jingyao and Gao Yang don't think there is anything surprising about Shen Huai's opening remarks to Yu Wei. Only Yu Wei, Gao Xinyan and others are shocked. .

Yu Wei is not a pragmatic person, and his scheming is deeper, but Shen Huai directly cuts into the core of the urgent problems facing Baohe Shipping from the height of problem solving. How could Yu Wei not understand?

For managers such as Gao Xinyan who have mastered the specific operations of the treasure ship industry from a practical level, it is more clear that Shen Huai has already pointed out a cooperation path that will help solve the problems of both parties and let them choose.

Over the past decade or so, Baohe Shipbuilding has mainly developed offshore transportation business from the mainland to Hong Kong and to and from Southeast Asia. The related investment business related to ship equipment such as ports, shipbuilding, shipping and even containers has been concentrated in this field.

In recent years, Yu Wei has gradually mastered the power of Baohe Shipping Industry, which is also a continuation of this business philosophy and implements it in the investment in Xipizha Port.

The Asia-Pacific financial turmoil, as far as the ports, shipping, and shipbuilding-related industries are concerned, is the offshore shipping sector in Southeast Asia and the mainland, which has been hit the hardest, and it is not known when it will recover.

At the same time, with the increasing liberalization of domestic economic policies, direct trade links with overseas countries have become more and more close, and more and more direct trade channels with overseas countries have been opened up. Even if the volume of transit trade in Hong Kong will continue to increase in the future, it will mainly be procedural and financial processes transiting through Hong Kong, and the volume of physical processes involving transportation, warehousing and bonded processing transiting through Hong Kong will shrink. trend.

As an international shipping company, Baohe Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. will not participate too much in the inland river and near-port connection transportation business in the mainland. The investment and business structure urgently need to be adjusted in the direction of ocean-going business.

Under such circumstances, the investment booth of Baohe Shipbuilding Industry in Xipizha Port appears to be too large. Moreover, if the investment project in Xipizha Port is to continue to be completed, it still needs to invest 1.45 billion Hong Kong dollars, which also causes great pressure on Baohe Shipping Industry.

For Yu Wei, the ideal way is to replace the rights and interests of Baohe Shipbuilding in Xipizha Port with Meigang's rights in Xinpu Port.

By replacing part of the rights and interests, Baohe Shipbuilding can improve its ocean-going business without adding new capital investment. It is related to the financing ability in the Mainland to solve some of the funds required for the follow-up construction of the Xipi Zha Port project, avoid becoming an unfinished project, and will have better market prospects.

If cooperation can achieve these three effects, Baohe’s projects in Xipizha Port can solve the current problems faster and better; and several projects in Xipizha Port account for a large proportion of the current Baohe shipping industry. The proportion of the problem solved will naturally greatly help the entire group to get out of the slump.

And Shen Huai also made it clear that Baohe Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. participated in the construction of Xinpu Port, and did not need to invest much money immediately. In terms of business channels, management system construction and input of excellent management talents, it will be beneficial to Xinpu Port, and the two sides will have cooperation. The basics.

At the same time, Shen Huai also frankly admitted that Xinpu Shipping Group, as one of the core enterprises of the Meishan Iron and Steel Group, the current business development direction is mainly focused on the bulk cargo business along the Huaihai Bay and Zhujiang ports, and the shipping with Baohe Shipping Industry. The business avoids direct competition and has strong complementary surnames, which at the same time strengthens the basis for cooperation between the two parties.

That is to say, when Gao Yang and Qi Jingyao thought that Shen Huai was talking politely, Shen Huai had already directly explained the basis of cooperation between the two parties to Yu Wei, Gao Xinyan and others.

Yu Wei can also understand at this time that Shen Huai knew from the beginning what kind of cooperation she and Baohe Ship Industry needed most with Xiapu, and also knew that Gu Zexiong and the Gu family behind him were the biggest obstacle to the cooperation between the two parties, so just now, Without hesitation, she took advantage of the topic and kicked Gu Zexiong to the ground, so that she could drive Gu Zexiong directly back to Hong Kong, so as not to stay here in the way.

Looking at Gao Yang and Qi Jingyao, they were still laughing in a perfunctory manner. Although Yu Wei would not completely change her hatred for Shen Huai just because of this matter, she could also understand that just from the perspective of ability, vision, and persuasiveness that directly pointed to people's hearts, Gao Yang and Qi Jingyao are really inferior to Shen Huai.

Although Yu Wei was grumpy about her daughter Kou Xuan, she also understood that if she wanted to avoid being kicked out by the Gu family in a year and a half, temporarily choosing to cooperate with Shen Huai was the only path she could take at the moment.

Qi Jingyao and Gao Yang didn't follow the rhythm at first, but when they heard Yu Wei, Gao Xinyan and others talk directly about some of the specific problems Baohe Shipbuilding was currently encountering, they realized that the situation was better than they expected. Worse.

In addition to Xicheng Shipbuilding Base, many of Baohe Shipbuilding's investments in Xipizha Port, including a special container manufacturing plant, are mostly joint ventures with Shigang Investment Group and Tianyi Group. Therefore, some specific projects have cooperation and rights swaps. There is no way to bypass Hu Lin and Chen Baoqi.

Shen Huai's opinion is very clear, Meigang will not intervene in projects involving Tianyi Group; and Shigang Investment Group, even if it is a member of the Zhao clan at this time, is always a municipal state-owned asset, so the specific cooperation will be specific. Besides, Shen Huai didn't have the energy to get involved in more specific negotiations.

However, being able to talk like this today has far exceeded Yu Wei's expectations. With such a foundation, she can get more support from the board of directors and push the whole thing forward, without fear of the Gu family playing tricks behind the scenes at this time.

But watching Yu Wei and Shen Huai suddenly get close~www.readwn.com~ Qi Jingyao and Gao Yang are naturally anxious. Although Baohe Shipping Industry is nothing in the huge assets of the Gu family, its investment in the Huaihai Bay area cannot be accounted for. Xiao Shi, Yu Wei and Baohe Shipbuilding, colluding with the Mei Gang Department, must not be considered good news for them.

As the deputy secretary of Qi Jingyao, Shen Huai stared at her, and she couldn't get out for a while, so Gao Yang made an excuse to go out and call Chen Baoqi to report the matter while Shen Huai, Song Hongjun and Yu Wei were chatting happily.

After a long time, Qi Jingyao's mobile phone received a text message from Hu Lin: "I have arrived in Xucheng, and I will be in Yicheng soon to greet President Yu for me..."

Qi Jingyao knew that Hu Lin had never treated Shen Huai with disdain, so if he was able to come to Yicheng in person at this time, he probably officially regarded Shen Huai as a rival to face him, and thought that Hu Lin would be the only one who would directly treat Yu Wei. It was only possible to dispel her idea of ​​cooperating with Shen Huai.

Qi Jingyao leaned over and whispered into Yu Wei's ear: "Hu Lin will come to Yicheng at night, let me greet you on his behalf..."

Yu Wei's heart trembled, she could still tell the difference between the Hu family and the Song family in China.

In addition, as a central enterprise with assets of tens of millions, GoldStone Rongxin has been working for more than ten years in Hong Kong and Guangzhou and Shenzhen under the control of the Hu family, and has deep roots. As a listed company in Hong Kong, Baohe Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. currently has its largest shipbuilding base in Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Jinshi Rongxin and Hu Jia have influence on other board members of Baohe Shipbuilding Industry Co., Ltd., as well as Hong Kong and Mainland shareholders and investors who stand behind these directors. It is extremely powerful, and it is not comparable to the Meigang system, which has just emerged from the Huaihai Bay area at this time - not to mention, there is also the Gu family.

If Hu Lin must stop her from cooperating with Shen Huai, what should she do?

Everyone could hear what Qi Jingyao said to Yu Wei; Shen Huai could see the confusion and panic in Yu Wei's eyes, and smiled lightly in her heart.
