The metal smelting industry is an industry without tricks, and the output is directly proportional to the floor area of ​​the factory and the number of employees. So this is why netizens ask this question.

"Well, I know you won't believe it, but I'll give you a statistic. Last year, the global civilian shipping industry had a total of 1,008 decommissioned ships, with a total tonnage of 6 million tons. Since Star Group's After the release of Super Phage Yanfu, the world’s first beneficiary is the garbage treatment plant, and the second beneficiary is the ship demolition plant. In the past, it took six months for a ship demolition plant to dismantle a 10,000-ton giant ship, but now it only takes half a month. It can be completed, so last year the shipbreaking yards around the world were doing very well. Six million tons, this is a big number, and this is only the number of last year. You must know that there are still a lot of scrap ships stored in each shipbreaking yard Yes, according to my estimation, Xingkong Metal alone gets 10 million tons of metal from the civilian ship market." After this passage was posted by the sad soul of the netizen, it directly caused a big wave of hype.

"What about the military market? I remember that the decommissioning of warships has always been a headache for all armies in the world." At this time, a netizen asked. It seems that this netizen is only a military fan.

"I'm not sure about this, but according to my estimation, it will not be less than 10,000 tons before. You must know that there are a lot of warships stored in the world now." The sad soul said briefly. As for the details, he really has no way to find out. It may be possible to infer a part based on some data, but this is a bit time-consuming. For example, the U.S. military has at least a thousand warships in storage, with a tonnage of at least one million tons, which is not easy to calculate. Another example is that last year Huaguo retired 18 warships, with a tonnage of around 100,000 tons. As for the whereabouts of these warships, the military has never given an accurate answer.

After all, warships of the army are not only faced with dismantling after decommissioning, but also military museums, and as target ships, they are also sold to countries that cannot afford warships, etc., so warships are generally not easily demolished. However, those old antiques like those of the last century have only one fate, that is to be dismantled or become a target ship.

With this topic, netizens came to life, making various guesses directly, and some netizens even started to do some investigations, and finally got a number that surprised everyone after summarizing, that is, the amount of metals received by Starry Sky Creatures last year. It reached 100 million tons. Based on a 60% loss, Xingkong Metal produced 60 million tons of metal last year. It is important to know that the country's consumption of crude oil was 600 million tons last year, and the output of Xingkong Metal directly accounted for one-tenth of it. In addition, Baosteel, the largest steel producer in Huaguo, produced only 60 million tons of crude steel last year, a number that ranked second in the world. ArcelorMittal ranked first.

So some media, who are afraid of chaos in the world, directly title the news like this-an invisible steel giant in the world. This news frightened those steel companies, because with an annual output of 60 million tons, if they enter this market, it will be the last straw that crushes this market.

The steel industry has been less than ideal since the last financial crisis. Especially in China, the domestic steel production has long been surplus, and the government is also urgently looking for solutions, such as closing small steel factories and promoting the transformation of steel enterprises, etc., which has troubled the government for a long time. A steel company comparable to Baosteel suddenly appeared in China, so it was extremely frightened.

"Secretary Xu, there aren't that many. Last year, we received about one billion liters of garbage solution, and extracted a total of 40 million tons of metal, including 12 million tons of iron powder, 500 tons of gold, and 5,000 tons of silver. Tons, 18 million tons of copper." Chen Qiang reported one by one to Secretary Xu who called.

In fact, this is not to blame for the fuss of the government. It is really that they have too little supervision of the Star Group, so they know very little about some things about the Star Group. As for the metal issue this time, they have to pay attention to it, because the domestic steel price has finally recovered. Now the 6,000 tons of Starry Sky Group directly lowers the current steel price by one-third. Too low a price is not a good thing either.

"Give me the annual report of Xingkong Group over there. You are really capable of causing trouble. You must know that the release of your Xingkong Group has caused the domestic steel price to drop by 30%. The second elder is worrying about this matter." Well, hurry up and declare it." Secretary Xu warned directly after listening to Chen Qiang's report.

"It's not the news released by our starry sky creature, it's the guesswork of the netizens." Chen Qiang complained.

"That's also Star Group's fault, hurry up." Secretary Xu hung up the phone immediately after speaking.

After that, Xingkong Group's official website released last year's financial report of Xingkong Metal, as well as the steel consumption of the entire Xingkong City last year. Of course, this data pit must vary from one point to another. For example, it is true that Xingkong Metal receives one billion liters of waste disposal projects every year, and all other data are false. In the financial report of Xingkong Metal, the metal production volume of Xingkong Metal last year reached 5 million tons, but in the report of Xingkong Construction, the steel consumption of Xingkong City last year reached 4.3 million tons, so All the metal produced by the metal company was swallowed up by Starry Sky City. Moreover, Chen Qiang also issued another statement that the cost of the metal produced by the entire Xingkong Metal is higher than the metal on the market, so it will not be sold, but will only be digested by itself.

As soon as these two announcements were issued, the price of metals in Huaguo's domestic market suddenly increased, even surpassing the previous price, but it returned to the original price after a few days, which is also the law of the market.

But it sounds like it was intentional, because Starry Sky Metal's financial report lists all kinds of metals that Starry Sky Group extracted from those waste liquids, and some metals are in large quantities, such as various precious metals. Huaguo's central bank directly contacted Chen Qiang about this matter the next day, wanting him to deposit the 500 tons of gold in the central bank. One-tenth, and the price of these golds has reached 150 billion Chinese yuan. Of course, it is 100 tons in the financial report, which is also 30 billion Chinese yuan.

Regarding the behavior of the central bank, Chen Qiang knew that there was a shadow of the above, so he didn't make it difficult for the central bank. He kept 100 tons for himself, and handed over the remaining 400 tons to the central bank. Moreover, it is useless for him to ask for gold. As for the gold left, it is prepared for the spacecraft developed in the future. Gold has good ductility, so adding gold to some alloys can improve the flexibility of the metal. of.
