"Silence is golden!"

Han Hao didn't bother to pay too much attention to the misunderstanding of the international media, and only replied with one sentence.

Respect is to do it, not to rely on scolding, in the end China Group is not good, everyone will meet again in 2008.

Although the Lunar New Year is approaching, the hot China automobile production line has not stopped, "Qin" and "Tang" are too hot, and one more car off the assembly line can give one more bonus at the end of the year, so the workers are working overtime to produce.

"How much do you think this year's prize money will be?"

During a break in work, an operator asked the production line foreman.

"Anyway, it's more than last year, and this year it's sold twice as many cars, so it shouldn't be much less. ”

The squad leader replied after taking a sip of strong tea.

"In another two years, I'll have enough money for a down payment to buy a new home. ”

Zhonghua Group's salary and benefits are among the best among Jiangzhou industrial enterprises, and it is not a problem for students who have just graduated to save for a down payment after working for a few years.

"Isn't it a talking partner? No wonder you are thinking about the marriage room, where is the object?"

The squad leader was interested when he heard it, and hurriedly asked.

"Bang-"

There was a strange sound, and suddenly the lights in the workshop were dimmed, and the vehicle production line immediately stopped operating.

"Smack-"

The backup emergency power was activated, and some of the lights began to turn on, but the production line still did not have enough power to start.

"There was a power outage, which was the first time in history. ”

The squad leader, who has worked in Zhonghua Group for several years, muttered.

This time, in the deployment room of Jiangzhou Power Supply Bureau, it has become a mess.

Due to the shortage of power supply, the electricity quota has been running at a high red line, and in order to ensure the daily electricity consumption of residents, some employees have pulled down the electric gate leading to the industrial area.

"Oh my God!

This section is the line leading to the China Automobile Industrial Park, and it is a key enterprise in the city that requires priority to ensure power supply! You press B11, which is another line from an ordinary industrial park, and the power supply can be suspended. ”

The person in charge on duty saw that his subordinates had made a mistake in the power outage line in a panic, and quickly asked him to restart the power switch.

"Click-"

Power was restored in the Chunghwa Group area again, and the production line was moving, but it was soon lying on its stomach again.

The overload between the shutdowns caused some of the fuses of the Chunghwa Group's power supply system to burn, and the production line was stopped despite the electricity.

This is really the first time in the first time, as a key guarantee enterprise in the city and province, even if the factory next door has a power outage, Zhonghua Group is still the priority to protect customers. You must know that once the automobile production line stops, the loss is calculated in hundreds of thousands of minutes.

"Okay, you can rest for a while, it looks like you won't be able to recover for a while. ”

The squad leader took a look and knew that he could call it a day early.

Soon, Han Hao also knew about the fault of the power outage, and hurriedly asked someone to call the power supply bureau to inquire.

Knowing that the power supply bureau had made a mistake and pressed the wrong switch, Han Hao was relieved. If there is a power outage in a long time, this job will not be possible. If electricity is not guaranteed, he plans to build his own power plant to keep the plant running.

The company's emergency repair team is investigating the progress of the power supply system to see what went wrong, and strive to restore the production line to normal as soon as possible.

From the end of 03 to the beginning of 04, the whole of China fell into a power shortage, and residents in large cities can also guarantee 24-hour electricity, and many residents in small and medium-sized cities can bear the pain of intermittent power outages.

Although the first unit of the Three Gorges Dam has been connected to the grid for power generation, and the state has advocated the transmission of electricity from the west to the east, China still suffers from a lack of electricity. Along with the lack of electricity, coal has also become scarce, and thermal power generation requires a large amount of coal, but coal is not available in the market. Along with this, there are also problems with the capacity of the national railways, there are not enough trains to transport coal, and power plants are frantically rushing to buy coal, but they can't transport it.

Where did all the electricity go?

This has to start from the fact that after China joined the TO, countless development zones and industrial parks have sprung up across the country, and the investment in industrial fixed assets has grown rapidly, which has exceeded the scope that the entire national economy can bear. Electricity has been snatched up by these newly popped-up development zones and industrial parks, and the central and provincial and municipal development and reform commissions at all levels have been piled up with reports from various localities calling for the launch of major industrial projects, and the entire national economy is showing signs of overheating.

According to statistics, up to now, China's fixed asset investment has increased by 53% year-on-year, of which the state-invested projects have only increased by 12.1%, while the growth of local investment projects has been as high as 64.9%. Among them, manufacturing investment grew the fastest at 75.8%, steel with the most prominent repeated investment increased by 107.2%, cement increased by 101.4%, electrolytic aluminum increased by 39.3%, and real estate increased by 36.2%.

"China accounts for 50% of the world's total cement consumption, 34% of steel, 31% of coal, 25% of alumina, and 13% of electricity, but only about 4% of the world's total GDP. This kind of high growth in exchange for high investment and high consumption is difficult to maintain.

Our government must carry out macroeconomic regulation and control of the economy and curb the strong investment impulse of local governments, otherwise China's economy will face the danger of a hard landing!"

Some economists have begun to speak out that China's economy is already showing signs of overheating and that the state must intervene.

At the beginning of 2004, the CPI index rose too fast and was close to the level of 1992. After the chief's southern tour, China's economy began to overheat and inflation, followed by the three-year economic regulation from 1993 to 1996, and the Chinese government used all its resources to complete a soft landing in order to clean up triangular debts and bad bank debts.

Now that the alarm of economic overheating is sounding again, the power shortage is a very significant signal.

In ******, he presided over a conference on economic regulation and control to escort the healthy development of China's economy.

Iron and steel is an intuitive manifestation of economic strength, and the shouting of "super-British to catch up with the United States" is a partial reference for the development of the economy.

However, this time, there is no need for ordinary people to throw all the iron pots at home into small earthen furnaces to make up production, but instead of a large number of giant ships pulling iron ore imported from overseas to Chinese ports, and then transporting it into countless modern blast furnaces in China, turning into hundreds of millions of tons of modern steel.

Judging from the preliminary statistics of the investment output of new steel plants in various places, the new steel output will exceed the current scale in the next few years, and China can pull up all the steel plants in other countries in the world to defeat together.

The main culprits for China's strong steel demand are the real estate and automotive industries, which consume the vast majority of steel production.

"Regulation and control should implement the policy of 'decisive and powerful, timely and moderate, differential treatment, and practical results', and resolutely brake on industries that are obviously overheated such as steel and electrolytic aluminum.

In addition, it is necessary to maintain the red line of cultivated land, and the development zones and industrial parks that are swarming up across the country must be re-examined and cleaned up, and those that do not comply with the regulations and are not approved will be stopped and returned to the farms!"

As soon as the premier opened his remarks, he set the tone for economic regulation and control, and it was necessary to let China's economy cool down.

The steel, cement, and electrolytic aluminum industries, as typical examples of the fastest growth in investment, have undoubtedly been classified into the ranks of macroeconomic control.

In addition, the rapid rise in housing prices has made the people miserable, so the real estate, which uses steel, cement, and aluminum alloy, has deservedly been included in the ranks of regulation.

As for the auto industry, another potential target for regulation, due to the loosening of the country's threshold for automobiles, many private enterprises have rushed into it, and investment growth has reached 77.8%.

The growth of the automotive industry, which is a major consumer of steel and aluminum alloys, will drive investment in both. But when it came to whether the auto industry should be included in the scope of macroeconomic control, the participants debated.

"There is an obvious surplus in the automobile industry, and there are already more than 100 automakers in our country, and now not only multinational joint ventures have entered, but even private enterprises are rushing here.

As a large consumer of resources like real estate, if the economy wants to cool down, it must also let this source subside first. ”

A Treasury official at the meeting said.

"According to the law of the world's automobile entering the family, our country is at the threshold of the car entering the family, and buying a car in some large coastal cities has become a trend.

Therefore, according to international standards, our current sales of 4 million vehicles are just the beginning, and there is still a lot to be done in the future. It is expected to reach the standard of 10 million in 2010 and become a major international automobile consumer.

While curbing the excessively rapid growth of investment, we have paid more attention to expanding consumer demand, and we cannot kill it with a stick to prevent a hard landing of the economy.

Steel, electrolytic aluminum, and cement must curb the excessive growth of investment, but automobiles should belong to the ranks of expanding consumer demand, and the existing automobile production is indeed not enough to meet the growing needs of the people. ”

A person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission said that although the automobile industry is overheated, it is still in the development stage as a whole.

"The existing swarm of flocks into the automotive industry to build factories is indeed suspected of repeated waste, but we can't close the door again, or need competition to promote the development of the domestic automotive industry. The vast number of private enterprises have the flexibility that state-owned enterprises do not have, and they are a major emerging force.

This can be confirmed by the private enterprise Chung Hwa Group, which has obtained the qualification for Olympic sponsorship by virtue of its excellent market performance.

I also do not agree with the inclusion of automobiles in the ranks of macroeconomic regulation and control, the domestic automobile industry is still in a period of rapid growth, and it will take time to cultivate. However, it is also the opinion of our management department to raise the investment threshold to allow truly powerful and ambitious enterprises to enter. ”

The person in charge of the Ministry of Information Industry raised his hand and said that as a direct management department, the automobile industry has not yet reached the stage of overheating.

After some discussions, the state finally determined that the four major industries of steel, cement, electrolytic aluminum, and real estate were the focus of macroeconomic control, and they would be restricted in terms of the proportion of their own funds, project approvals, and credit.

As for automobiles, they were lucky to escape the catastrophe and became the target of the state's support to expand domestic demand.

However, under the premise of cold consumption in the general environment, the automobile industry is about to usher in the first cold winter.
