In the afternoon of the same day, Li Guangyu, Du Yuemei, and Zhou Zhigang came to the outlying islands to visit the construction of the port, petrochemical base, and oil storage base above.

Donghua Trading Company, which has been invested by Li Guangyu, has been more active in trade with Eastern Europe, especially the Soviet Union, during this time, because the construction of the petrochemical base has not yet been completed, at present, Donghua Trading Company mainly imports naphtha, liquefied natural gas, coal, and some refined oil.

Waiting for the completion of the petrochemical bases, ports and oil storage bases in Xiangjiang and Echeng, they bought a large amount of crude oil.

In 1988, the Soviet Union was more radical in its reforms, and its internal thinking was more chaotic, and its reform focus was always focused on heavy industry, which also led to the Donghua Trading Company trading company trading the most with the other party to trade food, clothing, daily necessities, etc., and the exchange back was mainly oil extensions, coal, natural gas and other energy products.

Because of the barter with Eastern Europe, the price of trading with them was much lower, and in the case of coal, Donghua Trading Company only bought it at two-thirds of the market price.

The coal that Li Guangyu buys from Eastern Europe is not only for the needs of Hong Kong, but also for the treasure island market.

It's a pity that those countries in Eastern Europe are very close to gold, and Donghua Trading Company prefers barter, does not want to use foreign exchange, and does not want to take out gold.

Li Guangyu is not in a hurry about this, now he has obtained a relatively good income from such a transaction, although it is not as exaggerated as the later generations to exchange clothes for planes, but Donghua Trading Company, a second-way trading company, has benefited a lot this year, and its profitability far exceeds that of some groups, according to net profit, Donghua Trading Company can enter the top ten of Li's family.

This company typically eats at both ends, buying at a low price here and selling at a high price in Eastern Europe, then buying at a low price there, and then coming back and selling at a high price.

These few changes of hands can allow them to obtain huge profits, and the current business model is not unlearned.

However, there are some problems here, because of the opposition between the two sides, many powerful and capital consortia cannot intervene, Eastern Europe will not cooperate with them, and the US government does not want NATO members to drive the economic development of the Warsaw Pact countries.

If he has the strength and ability to do so, it is more suitable for the Li consortium at present, and his relationship with the American consortium is not very good anyway, and his main foundation is in Xiangjiang, and they were the first to put forward the barter plan, and the Warsaw Pact countries, especially the Soviet Union, are willing to make such a deal with the Donghua Trading Company.

You must know that in terms of economy, the Warsaw Pact countries have always been relatively passive, and the United States often pulls its allies to impose economic sanctions on the Warsaw Pact countries, restricting the sale of many products to the Warsaw Pact countries, especially the Soviet Union.

Now the Donghua Trading Company is bartering for them, especially the grain trade, the Soviet Union has been very short of grain in recent years, and their biggest import in recent years is grain.

At the construction site of the outlying island port, after Li Guangyu learned about the construction period, he said loudly: "You must ensure that the first phase of the port project is completed before the end of the year, and ensure that the port can be put into use on New Year's Day next year." ”

On New Year's Day next year, the chemical production base on the outlying islands and the steel production base in Western Australia will also be put into operation, and if the port cannot be put into operation at the same time, it will be very troublesome for raw materials to come in.

The person in charge of the construction here responded: "Li Sheng, you can rest assured, we will arrange the construction plan reasonably, increase the number of construction personnel, and strive to deliver the first phase of the project to the Kowloon Group in October this year, and start the construction of the second phase at the same time." ”

The outlying island port will be the main distribution port of the Li consortium in the future, so the planning is very large, here is not only used by the Xiangjiang Petrochemical Group and the Western Australia Iron and Steel Group in the future, there are currently five phases planned, the first phase is mainly to meet the unloading of crude oil and iron ore, as well as the loading of finished products of the two groups.

After learning about the port for a while, Li Guangyu went to the Xiangjiang Petrochemical Production Base, which was under construction.

It is mainly a production base of aviation fuel, naphtha and ethylene chemicals, as well as automobile fuel, marine fuel, large-scale ethylene chemical production bases, fertilizer plants, asphalt plants, etc.

At present, the equipment and technology required by the two bases Gan Qinglin has already negotiated with the Warsaw Pact countries, and he only needs to wait for the construction progress here, and then the other side will start shipping, and some technical personnel will be arranged to come over to guide production.

The construction here has been supervised by Zhou Zhigang for a long time, so the construction speed is much faster than planned, and it is expected to be handed over to the Xiangjiang Petrochemical Group in September.

After that, Li Guangyu and the others also visited the construction progress of the Western Australia Iron and Steel Company, and also went to the Xiangjiang International Airport to learn about the construction project of the base and storage center of the Xiangjiang Air Transport Group, as well as the base construction project of the Xiangjiang Aircraft Engineering Company, and also visited the construction project of the Xiangjiang Aviation Community.

In the future, flights will be transferred here, so that the employees of Heung Kong Air Transport Group and Aircraft Engineering Company can settle in nearby, so Heung Kong Air Transport Group has also established a community not far from the airport.

After returning to the Wheelock Building, Li Guangyu specially convened a meeting of several high-level leaders of the relevant groups and put forward some requirements again on the issue of construction on the outlying island.

Li Guangyu said to Guo Qingya: "In terms of port construction that you are responsible for, you should increase manpower and achieve two shifts, and strive to complete the first phase of construction in June this year, so that our crude oil can come in, and at the same time immediately start the second phase of the construction of the oil storage base to enhance our crude oil storage capacity." ”

Now the first phase of the oil storage base has been completed, but the port side has not been completed, and it is very troublesome to ask oil tankers to come over, so now, the oil storage base is still empty, and it has not been put into use for the time being.

At present, the construction of Lee's industry on the outlying islands is mainly responsible for Wheelock Development Company and Starlight Real Estate Construction Company, Wheelock Development is responsible for the construction of bases at the port and airport, and Starlight Real Estate Construction is responsible for the construction of residential areas, oil storage bases and production bases.

Guo Qingya said: "Li Sheng, I will make arrangements when I go back, and ask the Jianye Company to re-plan and ensure that the first phase of the port construction project will be completed in June and delivered to the Kowloon Group at the end of June." ”

Li Guangyu also put forward new requirements for the construction speed of several major production bases, increasing manpower and material resources, and striving to be able to put into trial operation in the second half of the year.

The reason why Li Guangyu has asked him to speed up his speed is also very related to the inland side, where the speed of construction is very astonishing, and many of the construction units are specialized in the troops; according to the speed there, whether it is in Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Huacheng, and Pengcheng, as well as the production bases, oil storage bases, and ports in Goose City, they will all be put into use in the second half of this year.

You must know that he has been working on Xiangjiang for several months, and as a result, many projects have been put into operation later, so Li Guangyu naturally hopes to speed up some speed, so that the equipment can also be shipped back together, and then installed and put into use at the same time to avoid some trouble.

Zhou Zhigang is the happiest, at present, his petrochemical group has been established for so long, not even a single product has come out, and the Jiadai Group, which was established at about the same time as them, is now flourishing in daily chemical products, and it is impossible for him not to be in a hurry.
