Resource Tycoon Reborn

After separating from Li Yinghao, Fang Mingyuan sat in the car and looked at the bustling streets of Seoul, but his heart was heavy. There was also overcapacity, and several companies led by Samsung Electronics will continue to expand production capacity. This is because expanding production capacity is very important to them.

Seizing the global market can play an important role in the future. The domestic steel industry is not only suffering from severe overcapacity, but also from low industrial concentration.

Although after years of development, domestic steel production has ranked first in the world for many consecutive years, low-level and disorderly duplication of construction in various regions has resulted in serious waste of resources, low corporate efficiency, and low industrial concentration, which has made companies unable to

To achieve economies of scale, not only does it not have enough strength to face overseas competitors, but it also restricts its own technological innovation! There is still a big gap between product quality and technological content compared with developed countries!

In 2008, published data showed that the steel industry concentration ratio of the world's major steel-producing countries was 99% in Brazil, 88% in South Korea, 73% in Japan, and 100% in Russia.

69%, India 67%, and the United States 61%... It can be said that the international steel market is almost an oligopoly market, and some have even reached the level of oligopoly. In China, there is only a pitiful one.

Twenty-three percent!

Too low industrial concentration limits the production efficiency of the domestic steel industry and weakens the negotiating position of steel companies as buyers when purchasing raw materials and energy. This, in turn, forces domestic steel companies to face sharp increases in raw material prices.

The floating situation has also caused the prices of domestic steel products to fluctuate greatly! If it were not for the fact that domestic steel companies have "advantages" that their overseas counterparts cannot match in terms of labor and environmental protection, where would there be any domestic steel products?

What is the price advantage of exporting overseas?

It is not that Fang Mingyuan has never thought about letting Liao Iron and Steel Group Corporation continue to acquire domestic steel companies to further increase its market share in the domestic and foreign steel industries. However, the current situation of the domestic steel industry makes it difficult for him to move forward. He can see that

The vast majority of the steel companies in the world are state-owned enterprises, with the support of the national treasury. Even during the economic crisis, life is usually okay, but those companies that cannot survive either have problems with their industrial layout or the number of factories they have built.

In ten years, the technical level should have been eliminated long ago, and the old state-owned enterprises are burdened with heavy burdens! Not to mention that there are other shareholders of Liao Iron and Steel Group Company, it is Fang Mingyuan who has the final say, to acquire such an enterprise, to be honest

, it is better to build a new steel plant to save worry and effort!

Moreover, state-owned capital is reluctant to withdraw from the acquisition of such an enterprise. Either it wants to sell its shares at a high price in the name of preventing the loss of state-owned assets, or it wants to remain a shareholder after the enterprise is acquired, and Fang Mingyuan hates it the most.

It’s those guys who say officials are not officials and businessmen are not businessmen who are dictating their own business.

Although Fang Mingyuan believes that the country's ability to liberalize the threshold for private capital to enter the steel industry breaks the monopoly, the problems caused by setting the threshold too low are also a headache. Now that the global steel industry is fully competitive,

The consequences of too low industrial concentration must be a headache for the above. How to improve the industrial concentration of the domestic steel industry? We do not expect to reach the level of Brazil and South Korea, but at least it must be close to the level of Russia and the United States.

Horizontal line must be one of the current important tasks of relevant domestic departments. This matter... is difficult to say, easy to say! After all, in the domestic steel industry, state-owned steel enterprises still have an overall advantage.

It would not be surprising if these state-owned steel companies in the country were reorganized and integrated with a determined order, and several large companies with steel output ranking among the top five in the world would be formed. But this would surely bring about many consequences.

Problems will also make the superiors scratch their heads.

Thinking of this, Fang Mingyuan also sighed helplessly. He could only console himself. In any case, in this life, the country's ability to control the steel industry has been much improved compared to the previous life when it was out of control.

Big changes. Under the strong promotion of Su Huandong, the domestic steel industry has achieved relatively obvious results in reducing overcapacity in the past year or two. The total steel output of the domestic steel industry has not only not increased again, but has been slowly declining!

Especially in Yanxing Province, while production capacity has declined, the quality of steel products has also improved, and the environmental protection level has also improved. Although smog is still coming as scheduled, it should be said that the intensity of pollution has been reduced compared to previous lives.

Fang Mingyang is far from a saint. He also understands that Yanxing Province chose the path of heavy industry development out of desperation. If possible, who wouldn't want the jurisdiction to be dominated by companies with low pollution and high efficiency like Microsoft, Cisco, Boeing, and Apple?

Enterprise. However, Beijing and Tianjin are like two powerful water pumps, sucking away all the funds, talents, and resources that may originally belong to Yanxing Province!

Although Qingshan Province is the top priority for the Fang family's recent development, Yanxing Province, which has already achieved a great situation, cannot give up. Although there are many difficulties in developing Yanxing Province,

But it also has its advantages. Yanxing Province’s desire for investment projects can be said to have reached an astonishing level. In order to obtain projects, many things can be discussed, even some things that are taboo in officialdom. And Tangshan City

The economic development of the Fang family has set a benchmark for other areas in Yanxing Province, making them realize that the strength of the Fang family can indeed change the development of a place, and most of the officials in Tangshan City will follow the path of Yanxing in the future.

Xing Province's leadership position, this also facilitates the promotion of many systems currently implemented in Tangshan to other areas of Yanxing Province...

With the cooperation of the Merck family, the equity transfer of German Tongyi International Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. went smoothly. At the same time, the Fang family was also accelerating the search for suitable pharmaceutical companies in the country. Although Fang Mingyuan did not think Merck

The family was able to reverse the predicament in a short period of time and take back the equity of German Tongyi International Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., but only when the fat is completely shed can it truly be regarded as its own.

Moreover, the equity transfer of German Tongyi International Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. is still kept secret from the outside world. Only a few people know that its ownership has now been transferred to the hands of the Fang family. Fang Mingyuan plans to use the German Tongyi International Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

The golden brand quickly occupied a market in the domestic pharmaceutical industry and did not give vested interest groups the opportunity to prevent the Fang family from entering the pharmaceutical industry in a large scale.

Of course, Qinxi Province is undoubtedly the first choice for investment, but Fang Mingyuan has no intention of letting German Tongyi International Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. be satisfied with this. With the country now also in economic crisis and various places extremely eager for investment, he

It is hoped that German Tongyi International Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. can "bloom" in many places in the country and quickly complete its industrial layout. Since it is something to be done, it must be the best!

When he came to South Korea this time, he and Li Jianxi also reached an agreement that Samsung Group would also further participate in the development of the pharmaceutical industry. Samsung Group would not only invest heavily in the development of the pharmaceutical industry in South Korea.

, will also jointly invest in China with the German Tongyi International Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. to add an insurance to this investment. In the future, the domestic investment of the German Tongyi International Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. will be linked to the triple investment of Germany, South Korea and China.

coat!

Fang Mingyuan plans to acquire a pharmaceutical company in Yanxing Province to facilitate the competition for the Beijing and Jincheng markets in the future. However, Fang Mingyuan has not yet decided where this company will land in Yanxing Province, and it has to be said that the atmosphere of Yanxing Province in the future

Environmental pollution is indeed a challenge for pharmaceutical companies. Although the current level of science and technology can ensure the personal safety of personnel and production quality even in nuclear contaminated areas, as long as protection is in place, a good external environment after all is

More conducive to business operations.

Fang Mingyuan was troubled by domestic industrial development, and Zhao Xunhao was also troubled by the future of Hanjin Group Company.

As the chairman, Zhao Xunhao knows better than anyone else that Hanjin Shipping Company, one of the two pillar companies of Hanjin Group, is actually about to become a waste of money. After so many years of rapid development, Hanjin Shipping Company is now

It is already the largest shipping company in South Korea and one of the world-renowned shipping giants. However, under the glamorous appearance, it is the reality of high debts and meager profits. And this menacing economic crisis has even further affected the financial situation of Hanjin Shipping Company.

To make matters worse, Zhao Xunhao has never thought of giving up Hanjin Shipping Company. This is not only because it is the foundation established by his father, but also because it is the foundation for the Zhao family to gain a foothold in South Korea's upper class society! Without Hanjin Shipping Company,

Even if Korea Global Airlines is still in his hands, it means that the Zhao family has lost ground rapidly in South Korea!

Therefore, Zhao Xunhao has been working hard to establish a good relationship with Fang Mingyuan, not only for the development of Korea Global Airlines, which he controls, but also for Hanjin Shipping Company. Kuok Shipping Group Company is now the leader in the global shipping industry.

, of course, this does not mean that the assets and scale of Kuok Shipping Group Co., Ltd. have become the industry leader in the world and no one can match it, but it refers to its benefits! Although not every shipping company is listed and will be made public.

own performance, but as an industry insider, I still have my own set of estimation methods for the general operating conditions of my peers. (To be continued.)
