Resource Tycoon Reborn

Generally speaking, the domestic steel industry is not doing well. In 2006, the price of steel in the domestic market showed a trend of first rising, then falling, and then stabilizing. By the end of the year, the comprehensive average price of domestic steel was nearly 4,000 yuan.

yuan per ton, which is slightly higher than the price at the beginning of the year. The average steel price for the whole year has dropped by almost 10% compared with the same period last year! Considering that the price of iron ore and coal prices rose last year compared with the year before,

Labor costs continue to rise, and it can be said that the profits of the steel industry are further compressed.

Although the iron ore price negotiations in 2007 have been settled and the price of iron ore has not increased compared with last year, this does not mean that the industry prospects in 2007

This can make industry insiders breathe a sigh of relief. Although the country has been phasing out backward production capacity, the newly added production capacity far exceeds the eliminated production capacity. The situation of excess steel production capacity will only increase in 2007.

Further seriousness. The price of coal is still rising, and labor costs are still rising. Last year, the country’s net exports of billet reached more than 33 million tons, setting a historical record, which alleviated the pressure of excessive production capacity on the domestic market. However,

It has also caused serious dissatisfaction among other international counterparts. Some countries have warned of anti-dumping investigations. It can be said that this year's iron and steel exports will face greater difficulties, and export volumes may even experience an absolute decline. These companies in Shanxi Province

Last year, steel companies were barely able to balance their books even with the subsidies provided by the government. This year, life will definitely be even more difficult.

"Before coming to Fengyuan, the province had decided to implement reforms in the province's steel industry and optimize the layout of the province's steel industry through a combination of many measures such as elimination of backwardness, mergers and reorganizations, production capacity replacement, upgrading and transformation, etc.

Improve the technical level of the industry's equipment level, encourage enterprises to increase technological innovation and new product development, adjust product structure, and improve product quality, grade and stability." Gongshan Jiandao, "Strength of Qinxi Iron and Steel Group Corporation

Very strong. But with all due respect, due to limited iron ore resources and difficulty in ensuring transportation capacity, your company’s development space in Qinxi Province is already limited..."

Fang Sheng looked at Gong Shanjian dumbfounded. He didn't know what to say for a moment. He really didn't expect that this person was actually here to persuade him to invest in Shanxi Province. He turned his eyes to Su Aijun who was aside.

.

Su Aijun spread his hands speechlessly. In fact, before coming to Qinxi Iron and Steel Group Company, Gong Shanjian had an exchange with him. Yang Junyi also called him. Su Aijun also understood that, just as Gong Shanjian said, Qin

The development of Xi'an Iron and Steel Group Company in Qinxi Province has indeed been greatly restricted due to the lack of iron ore resources. And when purchasing iron ore from other provinces, it has to face the problem of rising costs. For Qinxi

For the Provincial Iron and Steel Group Company, it is undoubtedly a better choice to build factories in other places and then transport the products back to the province. But he also knows that Fang Mingyuan still holds a relatively unfavorable attitude towards large-scale investment in Shanxi Province.

, Unless the top leaders of Shanxi Province are determined to change the bad situation in Shanxi Province, Fang Mingyuan will not easily enter Shanxi Province for large-scale investment.

Su Aijun was also a little moved by Yang Junyi's suggestion. Jinxi Province and Qinxi Province are adjacent, and the economic exchanges between the two provinces are quite close. Of course, from the overall economic perspective, Jinxi Province can be said to play the role of raw material.

With the dual role of export destination and finished product digestion market, the economic development of Shanxi Province will naturally be more capable of digesting the products of Qinxi Province. And from another perspective, if Shanxi Province can be tied to Qinxi Province's war

In the car. There are many benefits for the future... Therefore, Su Aijun did not reject Gong Shanjian's idea of ​​talking to Fang Sheng. After all, if Qinxi Iron and Steel Group Company went to Shanxi Province to explore the water, even if it failed in the end

, the impact will not be great. And if it succeeds, it will be a development opportunity for Shanxi Province and Qinxi Iron and Steel Group Company.

"Should you talk to that guy Mingyuan about this matter? I think Liao Provincial Iron and Steel Group Company is more suitable for Shanxi Province than Qinxi Provincial Iron and Steel Group Company." Fang Sheng covered his forehead and said.

He felt that he was already content with the development of the Provincial Iron and Steel Group Company to its current situation, and he had never thought about developing into other provinces.

"Secretary Yang has already mentioned Mr. Fang twice, but Mr. Fang may be dissatisfied with the investment environment in our province. The scale of our enterprises is also a bit small. Maybe there are other reasons, so he has not allowed it for the time being.

Liao Provincial Iron and Steel Group Corporation’s plan to enter Shanxi Province.” Gong Shanjian said with a wry smile, “The leaders of the province also know that Mr. Fang always attaches great importance to the governance ability of the local government where the investment is located...”

"Ahem!" Su Aijun coughed lightly and interrupted Gongshan Jiandao, "Brother Fang, Secretary Yang has also discussed this matter with me. Over there in Mingyuan, the development direction of Liaoning Iron and Steel Group Company is indeed

It does not make much sense to set up sites in Shanxi Province if it is not in the inland area. But for Qinxi Iron and Steel Group Company, the reality is indeed the conditions in the province, which has some limitations on the company's further expansion of output.

I have also looked at several companies in Shanxi Province. I think if the price is right, the steel company in Wulao City is worth considering. Haha, Brother Yang has almost one term in Shanxi Province.

What about the term of office..."

Su Aijun didn't go on, but Fang Sheng understood all his opinions. Fang Sheng was no stranger to Yang Junyi. With the rise of the Fang family, Yang Junyi could be regarded as one of the protectors, although he also received huge rewards from it.

, was successfully promoted to a provincial official, but the relationship between the two parties is still very good. Although the Fang family has made a lot of investments in Shanxi Province, there are no big investments, except for the establishment of Northwest Power Grid Company and Jinyang Heavy Industry Co., Ltd.

In addition to the limited liability company's shareholding, there are also several projects that Yang Junyi had when he first came to Shanxi Province as the governor.

"Governor Su has said so, I will think about it carefully." Fang Sheng said with a wry smile, the Fang family is not a family that doesn't know how to repay gratitude.

"Brother Fang, don't force me!" Su Aijun said quickly, "I don't necessarily ask you to invest in Shanxi Province. I don't want to listen to that kid scolding me later and go to my dad's place to give me eye drops!"

Both Fang Sheng and Gongshan Jian burst into laughter, but Gongshan Jian was shuddered in his heart, reminding himself that he must pay attention to his methods and not let Fang Mingyuan mistakenly think that he was putting any pressure on his father, and the man in front of him was even

In private, Su Aijun calls him Brother Sheng.

"Actually, it's not like Mingyuan has not considered investing in Shanxi Province..." Fang Sheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I once heard him mention a few words that he seemed to be interested in investing in Wulao, which is adjacent to Qinxi Province and Shanxi Province.

The city wants to invest, but I don’t know why he hasn’t acted yet.”

Gong Shanjian felt a little sad. They could see some of the reasons why Fang Mingyuan was not active in investing in Shanxi Province. Back then, Fang Mingyuan went to Shanxi Province to negotiate the acquisition of shares of Jinyang Heavy Industry Co., Ltd.

It has been hinted at. From the perspective of businessmen who pursue the best interests, due to the shady situation in Jinxi Province, many places are peeling off companies layer by layer, making it difficult to determine the future profit expectations of companies, and the poor economy of Jinxi Province.

This makes the consumption power of the people of this province pitifully small. For many projects, this means that the investment risk has increased and the project's rate of return has decreased. This in and out puts the pressure on investors.

It's big. Especially for those big projects with investment of hundreds of millions of yuan.

Gongshan Jiandao: "Chairman Fang, Secretary Yang has made up his mind this time to create a market environment of fair competition, improve the market competitiveness of steel companies, and promote the transformation and upgrading of the province's steel industry. You don't have to worry about it.

If there is any unfair treatment in the Western Province, if there is any unfairness, just come to me!"

In the evening, Fang Sheng returned to his home in Pingchuan Ancient City. He did not go back directly to his own courtyard, but entered Fang Mingyuan's courtyard.

"Dad, are you back?" He met Li Yuxin who was holding a bowl of soup.

"Where's Mingyuan?" Fang Sheng asked with a smile, "Is this for Xiaoya?" The relationship between the several daughters-in-law was quite harmonious, which made Fang Sheng very pleased. Throughout the ages, I don't know how many strong men have been

He was defeated by family unrest.

"Well. She wants to drink chicken soup today, so she asked the kitchen to make black chicken soup for her." Li Yuxin said, "Mingyuan should be in the study now."

"Uncle Yang, so you are determined to achieve great results in Shanxi Province?" Fang Mingyuan said in surprise. Just ten minutes ago, Yang Junyi suddenly called. What surprised him was that Yang Junyi actually called

I told him that he had submitted a report to the Central Committee, requesting to work in Shanxi Province until his term of office expires in 2013, and that he also planned to apply to serve in the Provincial People's Congress after the term of secretary expired. In this case,

Basically, the rest of Yang Junyi's political career was handed over to Shanxi Province.

"Well, I have also been hesitant for a long time. Your unwillingness to invest heavily in Shanxi Province is on the one hand, and Shanxi Province's inability to attract foreign businessmen is also on the other hand. The problem of Shanxi Province has been that I have been here for so many years.

It is also clear that it is difficult to solve it. Even a preliminary solution will take a long time, and it will be even harder if the social order cannot fall into chaos! Therefore, it will take time to solve these problems.

And timing! This is also the reason why my predecessors were powerless." Yang Junyi's decisive voice came from the mobile phone, "I don't care what they think, but this is my first place to take charge. I hope,

It cannot be said that I will not leave any regrets when I retire. At least it will make me look back on the past and feel that I have done some meaningful things and have not let down the people. I have a clear conscience! Didn’t the cadre team of Tangshan City make a promise to you?

, will not be transferred before completing two terms, and will refuse even promotion. Our entire team in Shanxi Province cannot make the same commitment to you, but you believe that it will not be just me by then.

In this case, can you make up your mind to let Fangjia Capital enter Shanxi Province?"

"Jinxi Province should not be what it is now. The people of Shanxi Province should not be so poor. The wealth brought by coal is only temporary. Since you were right about the rise of coal, I believe what you said about coal.

The downward cycle will not be far away. If we cannot make changes to Shanxi Province at this time, then we don’t know when the next opportunity for change will be, and who can guarantee that the government will be in power at that time?

Who has this idea of ​​​​changing!" Yang Junyi continued.

"Young Master Fang, to change Shanxi Province, there must be a prerequisite, that is, the social order in Shanxi Province cannot be chaotic, the economy must be booming, there are enough jobs to ensure national employment, and national income is growing.

, Otherwise, once social instability is caused, even if we want to do good things, we will only fail in the end!" Yang Junyi said bitterly, "So I need the capital of the Fang family to help me stabilize the economy, and the economy of Shanxi Province will develop.

, it is also a good thing for both the Fang family and Qinxi Province. The joint development of the economies of the two provinces is far better than that of Qinxi Province alone, and there is also a lot of room for complementarity between the economies of the two provinces."

Fang Mingyuan listened quietly. He really didn't expect that Yang Junyi would actually make up his mind to change the current situation of Shanxi Province. This would put all the rest of his political life on the line. You know, with the development of Shanxi Province over the years,

As a result, even if Yang Junyi cannot be transferred to a ministry, he will at least go to a province with a more developed economy than Shanxi Province to serve as a leader. When he retires in the future, it is not completely impossible to get a deputy national level. But if he is determined to work in Shanxi

After serving two terms in Xi Province, and then serving in the Provincial People's Congress, he basically stopped at the ministerial level...

"Hello? Mr. Fang, are you listening?" Yang Junyi asked.

"Well, Uncle Yang, I'm listening carefully!" Fang Mingyuan replied.

"I know that you have to take a lot of risks when investing in Shanxi Province, but I feel that based on what you have done over the years, you hope that this country will change and that the citizens can live a better life.

Life." Yang Junyi said, "Would you like to have a try with us?"

"Of course, all I have now is money. Since Uncle Yang has decided to make such a big sacrifice, how could I just sit back and watch?" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "I am better at economics, but Uncle Yang, you are better at cleaning up people.

, then let us cooperate again..." (To be continued.)
