Chapter 419: Conspiracy
"I don't understand, I don't understand!"
Li Gu rushed to Tian's house early in the morning and accompanied Tian Jiageng to the provincial party committee by car.
Pushing the door into the house, he saw Tian Jiageng sitting at the dining table, drinking porridge with side dishes, Li Gu shouted loudly.
"What's the matter, can you make this fake Zhuge can't understand?" Tian Jiageng took chopsticks, pulled the porridge, swallowed his stomach, put the bowl in his hand, and asked Li Gu what happened to make him so confused.
Tian Jiageng did not have a direct eyeliner in Donghua, and it was only possible for Li Gu to know after the news of Shen Huai's resignation from Meigang and his request to be transferred to Yushan spread in Donghua.
However, the news spread in Donghua was quite shocking, and the speed of spreading was extremely fast, Li Gu was still lying in bed early in the morning and received a call to know about it, so he hurried over to see Tian Jiageng.
Li Gu asked the nanny of Tian Zhai to help him serve a bowl of porridge, sat down at the dining table, and told Tian Jiageng the latest situation of Donghua: "I don't understand why Shen Huai should stand by and watch the problem of Donghua City's steel. Although Shen Huai and Tan Qiping have a deep contradiction, Donghua City Steel has encountered such a big problem, if he asks someone from the Song family to come forward to coordinate and merge Donghua City Steel by Meigang, Tan Qiping may not necessarily refuse if he wants to come. Meigang is still dominated by state-owned and local shares, and Meigang has no excuse to stop it from merging Donghua City. Why did Shen Huai come out with a posture that had nothing to do with him and made Tan Qiping even more embarrassed?"
"......" Tian Jiageng drank the porridge and asked Li Gu to continue.
"Shen Huai decided to leave Meigang at this time, which means that it is no longer a problem for Meigang No. 2 Plant to be completed and put into operation," Li Gu said, "As long as Meigang No. 2 Plant is put into operation and operation is not a problem, Meigang will take over Donghua City Steel as a whole, and it should be able to digest Donghua City Steel." Could it be that the title of the largest iron and steel enterprise in Huaihai Province is not attractive to Shen Huai at all? Now Shen Huai is determined to sit idly by, and it seems that Tan Qiping will be pushed into an even more embarrassing situation, but at the same time, it will inevitably make the fishermen of the Provincial Iron and Steel Group profitable -- I don't think Shen Huai will fail to see this. Provincial Iron and Steel Group's steel output this year has reached 1.5 million tons, and if it can take over Donghua Steel in its entirety, including Donghua Steel's shares in the joint venture steel mill, the total production capacity will exceed 2.4 million tons. Can't Shen Huai see how eager the provincial steel is to eat Donghua steel?"
Tian Jiageng put down the bowl and thought about what Li Gu said.
Although the domestic steel market is still in short supply, and a large number of steel products need to be imported overseas every year, as far as the regional market is concerned, seizing the surrounding market means lower transportation costs, more effective market control, and higher profits.
Therefore, to a certain extent, Meigang has direct competition with Donghua Steel and Provincial Steel Group within the scope of Huaihai Province.
More critically, Meigang and Provincial Steel, which is the largest steel enterprise in Huaihai Province, will also involve the policy tilt of the provincial party committee and provincial government in the future.
At present, there are no particularly heavyweight heavy industry enterprises in Huaihai Province.
If there is a steel company, there is hope to squeeze into the top ten, or even the top five in the industry, the provincial party committee and the provincial government will give it full support, it is not unimaginable.
The full support of the provincial party committee and the provincial government also means a large inflow of talents, funds and other resources in the province.
Resources are always limited, in the past Meigang did not get much support from the province, in the final analysis, the past Meigang is still a little inconspicuous, provinces and cities have no reason to put limited resources to Meigang.
Once Meigang merges Donghua Steel, the total steel production capacity can be rapidly expanded to 1.7 million tons, more than the provincial steel group with an annual production capacity of only 1.5 million tons, becoming the province's largest iron and steel enterprises, if the provincial party committee and the provincial government do not give Meigang more policy support, all aspects can not be justified.
"We don't care what Shen Huai's intentions are, simply from the perspective of the Provincial Iron and Steel Group coming forward to take over and solve the problem of Donghua City Steel, is the benefit outweigh the disadvantages, or the disadvantages outweigh the advantages?" Tian Jiageng asked Li Gu.
"From the overall situation, the merger of Provincial Steel with Donghua City Steel is still advantageous. The steel industry is capital-intensive and has obvious economies of scale. The merger and integration of Donghua Steel by Provincial Steel should have a positive effect. Li Gu said.
"That's okay, if Zhao Qiuhua proposes that the provincial steel come forward to solve the problem of Donghua City's steel, then he should support it," Tian Jiageng said, "As for the rest, we shouldn't think too much, and maybe Shen Huai's purpose is to drag the provincial steel into his bureau?"
"Secretary Tian, do you think Shen Huai's purpose is this?" Li Gu asked puzzledly, "However, Provincial Steel still has advantages in terms of capital, technology and talent reserves, and it should be able to digest Donghua City Steel." Shen Huai pushed out Donghua City Steel at this time and asked the provincial steel to digest it, what good will it do to Meigang?"
"You, you, sometimes you just think too much," Tian Jiageng said with a smile, "I can't understand it now, you might as well wait for some time to watch it again." If Shen Huai has any intentions, he will always surface. ”
Song Bingsheng kept pacing in the study, holding his chin with his hand, and his face was so bad that he could wring out water.
After returning from Yanjing for half a month, he watched the situation quietly, but he didn't expect this result to come out.
Tan Qiping rushed to Xucheng in the early morning and temporarily stayed in the city's office in Xucheng, but he couldn't close his eyes overnight and rushed to Song Bingsheng's house in Xucheng early in the morning.
Xie Haicheng was also in Xucheng during this time, sitting silently on the sofa, he couldn't figure out what Shen Huai was thinking in his heart, it seemed that they hadn't figured out Shen Huai at the beginning.
Su Weijun didn't come over, but Su Weijun's son Su Kaiwen was present, which also represented Su Weijun's attitude to a certain extent. Su Weijun did not show up at this time, indicating that he supported Tan Qiping.
If the city can't digest and solve the problem of the city steel on its own, then there is no way to prevent Zhao Qiuhua from intervening, and there is no excuse to stop asking the province and the steel for help. If the situation doesn't get worse, the Song family will have to give up a certain amount of territory and compromise with Zhao Qiuhua.
Zhao Qiuhua had already bared his fangs, and Tan Qiping didn't know how much to compromise in order to satisfy Zhao Qiuhua. I once thought that Donghua would be run as solid as gold, but I didn't expect it to almost turn the tables for others in an instant.
"Can SITC and Evergreen Group take over the problem of Shigang?" asked Su Kaiwen in a loud voice.
Su Kaiwen learned a lot from his Lao Tzu, and knew that once Donghua's mouth was pried open to Zhao Qiuhua, the whole situation would be unfavorable to them next.
Zhao Qiuhua is the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, the governor of the province, a member of the zhongyāng committee, and a descendant of Premier Hu Zhicheng, who has operated in Huaihai Province for many years. In Huaihai Province, the strength precipitated by the Zhao family is even stronger than that of Tian Jiageng, the newly arrived provincial party secretary.
In Donghua, Yu Chengzhen, director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, received the support of Zhao Qiuhua and dared to jump out to sing against them. Once Zhao Qiuhua is asked to stuff one or two heavyweights in Donghua, and then they are asked to take the City Iron and Steel Group as a bridgehead, Zhao's power in Donghua will be greatly expanded.
Next, the Zhao family will reach out to Meixi New District, and then even think about driving Tan Qiping out of Donghua and completely turning Donghua into their territory, which is not unimaginable.
Even if Su Kaiwen was for his own future, he didn't want the Zhao family to reach out too quickly in Donghua and expand his power too quickly.
Facing Su Kaiwen's voice and inquiry, Xie Haicheng just pursed his lips and smiled bitterly.
Although he and Sun Qiyi were able to raise 200 million yuan, the problem of Donghua Steel was not entirely a problem of funds. SITC and Evergreen Group, 200 million funds were not picked up in vain, investing in Shigang, but how to ensure the safety of this investment, instead of swallowing up the bottomless pit of Shigang?
If Shen Huai and Tan Qiping do not have such a deep contradiction, if Shen Huai is the same as Song Hongqi, he is a successor worthy of investing resources in a lot of training, rather than a white-eyed wolf who is likely to bite back, the best plan is naturally Meigang to merge with Shigang, and SITC and Evergreen Group inject more funds into Meigang.
In this way, the Song Department can quickly grasp a large iron and steel enterprise that has entered the top ten in the whole industry, making Donghua City completely become a territory that the Song Department cannot covet others, so as to help the Song Department seize more commanding heights in Huaihai Province, so as to form a situation of competing with Tian and Zhao.
It's a pity that all beautiful ideas have to face the cruel reality.
Shen Huai, the white-eyed wolf, not only stood by and watched, but also stabbed them fiercely.
Xiong Wenbin's attitude changed, others did not know, Tan Qiping knew it.
After the 12.9 explosion accident, he talked to Xiong Wenbin twice, which was also aimed at easing the previous tension, that is, thinking that once the situation of Shigang was difficult to control, Xiong Wenbin would return to Shigang to preside over the overall situation.
Although Tan Qiping did not say it explicitly, he believed that Xiong Wenbin could see his intentions, and he could also see that Xiong Wenbin had some intentions and did not mean to refuse.
Xiong Wenbin suddenly changed his attitude, was admitted to the hospital under the pretext of illness, and no longer showed up, so how could Tan Qiping believe that it was not Shen Huai who was making trouble behind his back?
Tan Qiping regrets it a little now, he didn't directly explain this meaning to Xiong Wenbin at the beginning, but asked Shen Huai to take the lead, making him lose the initiative.
Tan Qiping has a lot of issues to consider, he not only has to clean up the mess of Shigang, hoping that Su Weijun and Song Bingsheng can support him to compromise with Zhao Qiuhua, but he also has to consider the attitude and views of the Song family towards him, whether it will change because of this crisis.
He was worried that everyone in the Song family would question his ability to control the situation, and that would be the fatal blow to him - Shen Huai's purpose was this, right?
Seeing the wry smile on Xie Haicheng's face, Tan Qiping knew that it was impossible for SITC and Evergreen Group to take over the mess of Shigang. What they need from him is to benefit, not to selflessly use 200 million funds to smash into the bottomless pit to help him solve the problem.
Tan Qiping thought about it for a long time and said: "Judging from the current situation, the city is not able to solve the problem of the city steel. I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I have come up with such a plan, please Governor Song and Mr. Xie for me to refer to it in detail......"
Song Bingsheng nodded, and asked Tan Qiping to continue, he now knew that his words would not have much effect on Shen Huai, a son of evil.
"The current assets of the city steel can be divided into two parts, one is the shares held in the joint venture steel mill, and the other is the steelmaking line and subsidiaries of the city steel," Tan Qiping said, "If you don't do anything now, you will ask the provincial steel to take over and solve the problem of the city steel, which is equivalent to saying that the city will give the city steel to the provincial steel for nothing." I wonder if SITC and Changqing Group will join forces to invest in the acquisition of the shares of the joint venture steel mill in the city, and after the city steel company obtains the funds, the negotiations with the provincial steel will not be too passive. ”
Song Bingsheng looked at Xie Haicheng.
Xie Haicheng didn't express his position lightly, but said: "I'll call Sun Qiyi to see if he has time to come to Xucheng." ”
Shigang is a mess, and that is for Shigang as a whole, SITC and Evergreen Group do not have enough resources and capabilities to digest this mess.
But it doesn't mean that there is no good meat on Shigang.
Although the joint venture steel mill has not yet been fully completed, the current construction situation is good.
In addition, in order to ensure the construction of the joint venture steel plant, not only did Fuji Steel of Japan transfer a large number of management and technical forces, but the city steel also invested the best human resources left in the joint venture steel plant to maintain the construction progress.
Moreover, the joint venture steel mill is located in the large industrial layout of Meixi Town, with the help of Meixi Power Plant, Meixi Port Wharf and the peripheral industrial chain formed around Meixi Iron and Steel, the future profit expectation of the joint venture steel mill can be guaranteed.
If you don't take care of the other messes and rotten meat of the city, the 35% equity held by the city steel in the joint venture steel mill can be said to be fragrant.
The problem is that at the beginning, Shigang invested 120 million yuan for the 35% equity of the joint venture steel mill, and SITC and Evergreen Group, if they want to get this piece of fragrant bread, how much money do they have to come up with?
This price is too high, of course Xie Haicheng will not do it, but looking at Tan Qiping's posture, it seems that he is not willing to let the price be too low.
Song Bingsheng was anxious, and seeing that Xie Haicheng was interested in taking over the shares of the joint venture steel mill, he asked Tan Qiping directly: "What price can Donghua City agree to transfer this part of the shares to SITC and Evergreen Group?"
"The city steel originally invested 120 million, after more than a year of preparation and construction, the joint venture steel mill is in a good situation, and it will be officially put into operation in three or five months. I think if it's less than 150 million, I can't say that the other Standing Committee members agree to this plan......" Tan Qiping said.
Song Bingsheng nodded, the city steel originally took out 120 million, plus interest, the total cost will not exceed 130 million, and now SITC and Evergreen Group have joined forces to invest 150 million to take over the shares of the joint venture steel mill, which is equivalent to the city steel can make a net profit of more than 20 million in this transaction.
The joint venture steel mill project was promoted by Tan Qiping.
Tan Qiping wants to ensure that Shigang will not lose money on this project, which is not difficult to understand.
Of course, Shigang will not directly obtain 150 million funds from SITC and Evergreen Group, but will transfer the previous loan debt and equity of 120 million yuan to SITC and Evergreen Group at the same time, and then receive an additional 30 million yuan in compensation.
For the city steel, reducing the debt of 120 million yuan and obtaining an additional 30 million yuan of funds will also be of great help to alleviate the current crisis. In this case, the solution of the municipal steel problem, even if it is necessary for the provincial steel to take over, Donghua City can also grasp some initiative.
This plan can also allow Tan Qiping to gain support in the Standing Committee of Donghua City and take back some initiative.
And this plan is also beneficial to the Song family.
At present, it depends on Xie Haicheng's dissatisfaction with Tan Qiping's bid.
"Okay, I'll call Sun Qiyi and ask him to come over and talk directly. Xie Haicheng said.
He knew that Tan Qiping's offer was not high.
The resources invested by the city steel joint venture steel mill are not only 120 million yuan, but also a large number of human resources, which is difficult to estimate, but it will definitely not be low.
If it weren't for a large number of backbone forces, Meigang and the joint venture steel mills would not have had such a big production accident.
Moreover, the joint venture steel mill is about to be completed, and taking over the shares of the joint venture steel mill at this time means that the investment risk is greatly reduced.
Seeing that Xie Haicheng said so simply, Tan Qiping has rarely shown some smiles these days, at least the situation is not completely out of control, thinking of Shen Huai so much, he can't help but think hatefully: Little rabbit, do you think that if you do this, you can overturn me?
