Chapter 577: Strategic Resources!
Two days later, Yang Jie rushed to Yanjing and met with Mrs. Akira at the State Guesthouse.
Song Xinyang and the personnel of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were also talking to Mrs. Akira at this time.
"Mrs. Akira, we also attach great importance to the matter you have reported, and we are also investigating this matter, and we will definitely give Mr. Yang a satisfactory answer. β
Mrs. Akira glanced at Yang Jie and said, "Mr. Yang, what do you think of Huaxing Group's request to our Philippine side?"
Song Xinyang glanced at Yang Jie.
"Lady Akira, I personally agree to your request, but I hope to be able to give us some time. β
Yang Jie said.
In the past two days, Yang Jie also met and negotiated with these leaders of the central government, and Yang Jie only agreed to establish a factory and production line, but did not agree to the technology transfer for Mrs. Akira's request for Huaxing Group to establish a wafer factory, automobile production line, mobile phone production line, and LCD screen production line in the Philippines and transfer technology.
"Okay, I'll give you five years. β
Lady Akira nodded.
Yang Jie didn't stay long, and left after a while.
"Leaders, this time our Huaxing Group Company is bleeding heavily for this matter, and the state will compensate me!"
In the afternoon, Yang Jie said to Zhu Ronghua and others in the conference room of the GuΓ³ WΓΉ YuΓ n building.
"How do you want to compensate?" Zhu Ronghua looked at Yang Jie with some tears and laughter.
"I hope that after the production of Huaxia Fokker Company's aircraft, the country can buy more than 100 planes. Yang Jie said.
"You kid really dare to say it!"
Zhu Ronghua glared at Yang Jie.
"If it doesn't work, eighty crosses will do......"
ββ¦β¦β
Zhu Ronghua glanced at Yang Jie angrily, waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about this matter then, the country will take care of you in this regard." β
"Then I'll say yes. Yang Jie said with a smile.
"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about your company. β
Zhu Ronghua looked at Yang Jie and said, "This time the country needs your company to complete a task. β
"I don't know what the country needs us to do?" Yang Jie asked.
"Your machine tool research institute and Yonghan Aviation Power Technology Co., Ltd. in the preparation and processing of alloy materials is first-class in China, with a large number of technical patents in hand, the domestic company is too far behind you, and now the country has not mastered the construction of aircraft carriers of special alloy steel, and your company is the most powerful in this regard, so the central government needs you to undertake research and development in this area, so that the technical patents in this area will be authorized to domestic steel mills for production. β
Machine Tool Research Institute and Yonghan Aviation Power Technology Co., Ltd. have made great efforts in the preparation and processing technology of alloy materials in recent years, and Huaxing Group has several medium-sized metallurgical factories to meet the needs of the group company itself for these special alloy materials, and basically will not sell alloy materials to the outside, but to sell high-end bearings, CNC machine tools, high-temperature alloy tools, etc., many domestic companies want to buy can't buy.
Huaxing Group has no idea of expanding the scale of production at all, and all the materials and technologies in hand are high-end material technology and technology, and the profit is quite high.
A few years ago, after the Varyag aircraft carrier was towed back to China, domestic shipyards and naval personnel inspected the Varyag, and it was found that the Varyag used special steel for Russian warships, which can naturally resist seawater corrosion, and is non-magnetic.
Because several parts of the flight deck were unfinished when the Varyag was brought back, it was necessary to develop suitable special steel and corresponding welding materials and equipment in order to repair the aircraft carrier.
Because the mechanical properties of this special steel in Russia are very strict, and they are all ultra-long, ultra-wide, and ultra-thick workpieces, only Huaxing Group can do it if it has the strength to do it for the time being.
Yang Jie nodded and said: "Since the central government trusts us so much, we will resolutely complete the task assigned to us by the central government!"
He is very confident in the development of special steel materials of his company, although Huaxing Group has not developed special steel used in aircraft carriers before, but Huaxing Group has accumulated a lot of experience in the research and development of materials in alloy design models, which is the model is becoming more and more accurate, and there are first-class engineering and technical personnel in the alloy preparation process, and there are various advanced testing and testing equipment.
This matter has become not a particularly difficult thing for Huaxing Group Company.
"Chief, compared with the visible deterrence of aircraft carriers, I think Huaxia actually has a means of strategic deterrence in its hands. Yang Jie said.
"Well, you tell me. β
"That is our country's rare earth resources, rare earth resources in many special elements are the foundation of modern high-tech military industry, but also the blood of modern information technology and high-tech industry, but also related to the future development of our country one of the lifeblood. β
Yang Jie said: "We Huaxing Group uses a lot of rare earth elements in electronic products and alloy materials, and we are very clear about this, and it can be said that the importance of rare earth resources is higher than that of oil." β
"Not to mention rare earth resources, indium, another rare metal in our country, currently has more than 16,000 tons of proven indium reserves in the world, and we account for 13,000 tons, making it the world's largest supplier of primary indium. Although the output of indium is small, it has a very important position in the field of liquid crystal displays, solar pools, optical products and military aerospace, and now the most widely used is thin film transistors, which are mainly used to produce liquid crystal displays, and there is no other metal that can replace the status of indium, which is irreplaceable for the role of indium in high-tech industries, especially in the semiconductor industry. β
"China's indium reserves are mainly concentrated in the two southwestern provinces, more than 95% of the local enterprises indium production is only 1 to 5 tons, the application technology base of indium in the past are in the hands of foreign enterprises, domestic enterprises can only take indium ingots and indium wire from the ore, and can not further further processing, resulting in a large number of valuable indium resources are sold to Japan at a low price, Japan in turn will be refined indium products sold back to domestic enterprises at a high price. At that time, China's export of indium ingots was only about 3 million yuan per ton, while the price of thin-film liquid crystal materials processed by indium imported from Japan was as high as 30 million yuan per ton, and more than 70% of indium was sold to Japanese companies led by Mitsui. In order to reduce prices, these companies often go to the areas where indium factories are concentrated to inquire about the production capacity of each indium factory, and then place orders for these small indium factories that exceed their production capacity. These Japanese companies then used domestic intermediaries to purchase a large number of indium orders into small quantities and dispersed purchases, each time a few hundred kilograms of scattered purchases, coupled with rampant smuggling, leading domestic companies to compete to lower prices, indium resources were lost in vain, and the pricing power also fell into the hands of companies like Mitsui. β
Yang Jie continued: "Three years ago, because our Huaxing Group Company mastered this technology and became the largest purchaser of raw material indium, we asked the local government to unify the procurement, and cooperate with the crackdown on indium smuggling and stop the middlemen from intervening in the export of indium raw materials, which is conducive to changing the situation of low-price competition among indium factories. β
"In fact, not only indium raw materials, according to our company's investigation, the situation of illegal mining of rare earth resources in China is very serious, and most of these illegal rare earths are flowing to Japanese companies led by Mitsui, and after these Japanese companies obtain a large number of rare earths, in addition to their own use, a large number of rare earth resources are stored as strategic materials. β
"It is really distressing that foreign companies led by Mitsui & Co., have adopted the methods of buying and stealing China's trade secrets, encouraging and instigating a small number of illegal profiteers to smuggle the country's precious resources, resulting in a large loss of these incomparably precious strategic resources in China. β
Yang Jie said: "Therefore, it is best for me to establish a strategic resource management department to sort out and rectify the situation of these strategic resources in the country, strengthen the control of rare earth resources, implement a quota system for exports, and even strictly prohibit exports, and pay attention to the extraction and deep processing of rare earths in China, so that this situation can be completely reversed." β
