In 01 year, domestic iron ore was less than 200 yuan per ton.

Xiling iron ore reserves are limited, and there is no potential for a significant increase in mining volume in the future, and even due to environmental factors, the annual mining volume will be controlled by about 1.5 million tons.

Therefore, the process of mining, crushing, beneficiation and other processes is added, and finally the iron concentrate powder is sold to steel enterprises, and the total output value created by Xiling Iron Mine in a year is only about 300 million yuan.

It is conceivable that such an industry, which has a narrow space for development and limited potential, has to support 22,300 workers, and the burden is heavy.

As far as Rongxin is concerned, it is okay to take over the Xiling Iron Mine, but they would rather spend hundreds of millions of dollars to exchange mining and beneficiation equipment, and also remove the seriously redundant workers.

However, it is daunting to dismiss 20,000 workers at one time in the Xiling mining area, and the cost of dismissal will not be too low.

The comprehensive restructuring of Provincial Steel was also carried out by Fuji Steel, a Japanese company.

As far as Fuji Steel is concerned, it does not want to touch on too sensitive social issues in China, so it will not get involved in the heavy burden of Xiling Iron Mine.

After many negotiations, the restructuring plan was finally determined in late June, and Rongxin Group, Huaihai State-owned Assets and Fuji Steel jointly initiated the establishment of Rongxin Iron and Steel United Co., Ltd., which accepted the steelmaking business and assets of the provincial steel listed company, Xinjin Iron and Steel, Meixi Fuji Iron Joint Venture Steel Mill and Shimen Iron and Steel.

After the establishment of Rongxin Steel, the total steelmaking capacity will reach 6.5 million tons, Huaihai State-owned Assets holds 29% of the shares of Rongxin Steel on behalf of the provincial government, Fuji Steel holds 20% of the shares of Rongxin Steel, and the remaining 51% of the shares are held by Rongxin Group.

Not to mention the competition and grievances between the economic system and the Hu system, the provincial steel and Meigang, after the integration of Rongxin Iron and Steel, in the foreseeable near future, the second phase of the Xinjin Iron and Steel project will become possible, and the total steelmaking capacity of Huaihai Province will exceed 30 million tons, which will soon become a reality.

The steel production capacity exceeded 30 million tons, which will have a symbolic significance for the economic development of Huaihai Province, so the province and Donghua City have pinned their hopes on the comprehensive restructuring of the provincial steel, and the narrow factional entanglement does not have much room for backswing this time.

Rongxin Steel will be headquartered in Xinjin, after the approval of the restructuring plan, the parties signed an agreement, as soon as July 8 in Xinjin was established, and the later will also be based on Xinjin Port to further expand steelmaking capacity.

Shen Huai, on behalf of Huaihai State-owned Assets, and Tang Baocheng rushed to Xinjin to participate in the listing ceremony of Rongxin Steel, and Tang Baocheng will be appointed by Huaihai State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission to enter the board of directors of Rongxin Steel.

After the listing ceremony, Shen Huai did not stop long, and left Xinjin by car in the afternoon.

Fan Wenzhi, Chen Baoqi, Nobuo Yamazaki and other guests stayed to participate in the evening reception.

After Liang Rongjun separated from the provincial state-owned assets, he served as the general manager of Rongxin Iron and Steel on behalf of Rongxin Group and led the integrated management team; Hu Lin officially represented Rongxin Group as the chairman of Rongxin Iron and Steel after two years of dormancy, which can be regarded as a formal step to the stage and become a dazzling new star.

Marked by the completion of Xinjin Iron and Steel, although Xinjin is not comparable with Meixi and Xinpu, the development speed in the past two years is also extremely fast.

Hu Lin didn't go out to see Shen Huai, but he was standing in front of the window all the time, watching Shen Huai go away in the car, watching Liang Rongjun walk back, and asked him:

"How to deal with Xiling Iron Mine within Huaihai State-owned Assets, there should be movement out, right?"

"The preliminary plan is out," Liang Rongjun nodded, the restructuring plan cannot be completely confidential, the provincial state-owned assets and Xiling Iron Mine need to be fully discussed, and after all parties reach an agreement, the plan will be submitted to the province for approval, he said, "Shen Huai still hopes to transfer all the assets of Xiling Iron Mine to Huai Coal, and then Huai Coal Group, Meigang Co., Ltd., and Changqing Group will initiate the establishment of a limited liability company for rectification; construction business, the establishment of a larger-scale engineering company, and the preparation for the next step of exporting labor services overseas......"

"Evergreen Group negotiated an agreement as early as a year ago, investing 200 million US dollars to acquire 40% of the equity of Tangli Iron Mine in East Africa, this time Meigang will inject another 400 million US dollars into the mining department of Evergreen Group, and obtain a total of 80% controlling stake in Tangli Iron Mine," Fan Wenzhi said, "Next, Meigang and Evergreen Group will formally develop Tangli Iron Mine, set up an engineering company, and export labor services overseas has a clear direction - this resource, we still can't use it now......

Many of Africa are undeveloped mining areas, to transport iron ore out, to build a series of infrastructure including mines, concentrators, iron ore terminals, 200 kilometers of mining railways, Meigang in London as a whole listing, a lot of information will be released to the public, so they want to understand Meigang shares to participate in the capital and market operation, much more convenient than before.

Tangli iron ore mine will start construction in the near future, Meigang, Changqing Group and Huai Coal after taking over Xiling Mining, the construction of the project business, the formation of an engineering company, in addition to the diversion of Xiling Iron Mine is currently seriously surplus workers, the main thing is to be able to enter a large number of human resources to the construction and operation of Tangli Iron Mine.

Over the years, Fan Wenzhi and Liang Rongjun have been strengthening the development of mines and other infrastructure engineering construction businesses in order to increase the income of the mining area and divert surplus workers, and the relevant technical and construction personnel have accumulated thousands of people, which can be said to have laid the foundation for the establishment of Xiling Iron Mine Formal Engineering Co., Ltd.

Xiling Iron Mine is a chicken rib in their hands, it is a burden, but seeing that Meigang can eat the chicken ribs of Xiling Iron Mine with relish, I feel a little sluggish, but there is no way, Rongxin Iron and Steel has not yet developed to that extent - the domestic steel companies that really go out to find ore are only two or three such as Yangang and Zhenhai Iron and Steel, and Rongxin Iron and Steel can only focus on expanding steel production capacity in China first.

Although the landed price of iron ore is only 200 yuan per ton, there is not much profit to enter the overseas iron ore market at this time, but last year the domestic imported iron ore accumulated 70 million tons, with the construction of many steel bases along the coast and along the river, the annual import of iron ore will double in the next two or three years, and then it will directly affect the balance of supply and demand in the international iron ore market.

Therefore, the trend of sharp rise in iron ore prices in the future can still be seen now.

It's just that Rongxin doesn't have the ability to run out to find ore now.

No one will casually transfer rights and interests in overseas developed and mature mining areas; undeveloped mining areas need to invest a lot of money in infrastructure, Meigang and Changqing Group have invested 600 million US dollars in Tangli iron ore mine, which is only the supply of 8 million tons of iron ore in the first phase, and will invest 8 to 1 billion US dollars in the later stage - Rongxin has this money It is better to expand production capacity in China first.

Although the Evergreen Group acquired iron ore in Thailand and other places as early as 97, it was only after a three-year gestation period that it invested heavily in East Africa last year to acquire the rights and interests of Tangli Iron Ore with a total reserve of 1.2 billion tons.

If it keeps up with the development rhythm of Meigang, Rongxin will need to wait for three or four years before it can embark on the road of overseas prospecting.

More importantly, after the establishment of Rongxin Steel, it is close to Meigang in terms of production capacity, but there are still many gaps in profitability.

Meigang shares issued a notice, the first half of this year's profit has reached an astonishing 1.2 billion, the overall listing and financing of 3 billion funds, the cash in hand to meet the construction of the second phase of the Xinpu Iron and Steel project, there is a lot of margin for the expansion of the upstream of the industrial chain, which is not comparable to Rongxin.

After Rongxin Iron and Steel gets rid of the relevant burdens, the profit in the second half of the year can only barely reach 400 million;

However, the greatest significance of the establishment of Rongxin Iron and Steel to Rongxin Group is that Rongxin can finally fully control a huge heavy industry consortium, unlike in the past, which only focused on financial businesses such as Rongxin Bank and Rongxin Securities. The formation of the troika of Rongxin Iron and Steel, Rongxin Real Estate and Rongxin Construction finally consolidated Hu Lin's position within the Rongxin system and completed the transfer of power of the Hu family within the Rongxin department.

In fact, Shen Huai did not secretly exert resistance in the comprehensive restructuring of the provincial steel system, which is somewhat surprising.

***************************

Shen Huai went to Donghua City and met with Guo Chengze, Meng Jiansheng, Zhao Tianming, Chen Bing and others.

The Lanjiang Expressway will be completed in one year, and Xiapu and Tangzha will jointly establish the Bridge Industrial Park under the Meiqing Cross-River Bridge, as an extension of the Meixi New Area to the east, and the groundbreaking ceremony was also held today.

The relevant area belongs to Xiapu Jinghai Township, Donghua City advocates that the relevant area be directly assigned to Meixi New District, Xiapu also does the work, but the adjustment and approval of the administrative area takes time, so the development is started in the form of a joint industrial park, and all the infrastructure is actually drawn from the Meixi New District, in addition to the east extension of the highway along the river has long been constructed, Zhuxi Avenue and the east extension of Xiamei Highway have also been constructed as early as a year ago.

"Xiapu has long met the criteria for applying for the establishment of a county-level city," Guo Chengze pulled Shen Huai to take his car back to the Nanhu Hotel from the groundbreaking ceremony, and discussed with him in the car about the future of Xiapu, "and in the future, if Donghua City wants to develop on a large scale, it can only go east and integrate with Xiapu." I am more in favor of the withdrawal of Xiapu from the county district, I would like to ask your opinion?"

Shen Huai nodded and said, "I support it, what kind of work do you need me to help do?"

There is a great difference between counties and municipal districts, and the most concentrated expression is in the financial power and various administrative examination and approval powers.

The total economic output of Tangzha District is comparable to that of Xiapu County, but when it comes to fiscal revenue at the district and county levels, Tangzha District is now only half of Xiapu County's, and more local fiscal and tax revenues are withheld by the municipal finance.

If Xiapu can be established as a county-level city, the financial and many administrative powers will be strengthened, and if the county is abolished and the district is established, the relevant powers will be greatly weakened, including the power to transfer construction funds to the Huaihai Bay Government Construction Fund, and will no longer be under the control of the Xiapu local government.

The strength of the Meigang system in Donghua is the most concentrated in Xiapu, whether Xiapu is established as a county-level city or withdrawn from the county and set up districts, which has the greatest impact on the Meigang system, and Guo Chengze wants to do the work of Shen Huai first.

Shen Huai agreed too simply, but Guo Chengze hesitated, unable to see what he was thinking in his heart.

Seeing the suspicion in Guo Chengze's eyes, Shen Huai also realized that he had promised too simply, and he could only smile bitterly in his heart.

Xiapu's local fiscal and tax revenue this year is likely to exceed 7 billion, and after several years of development and construction, the land price and property price are even higher than that of the urban area, and the income from the bulk land transfer of Lingang New Town in the future is even more considerable. From the perspective of narrow regional protection, it is normal for these financial resources to be controlled by Xiapu itself and used in Xiapu, but it is not possible to do a good job in the balanced and coordinated development of a larger region.

However, if Donghua wants to develop into a regional central city in the future, the urban area of less than 100 square kilometers at this time is obviously too narrow; Guo Chengze's proposal at this time to withdraw Xiapu from the county and set up districts is also to see that this is the key to opening up the overall pattern of Donghua's future urban development.

Of course, Shen Huai did not reach the point of putting his heart on his mind with Guo Chengze, thinking that he would communicate with Chen Bing and them, Guo Chengze really wanted to promote related work, and they could not exert resistance on their side.

****************************

In addition to officials and business representatives from the city, Xiapu County and Tangzha District, Song Hongqi also brought people to attend the groundbreaking ceremony on behalf of Qingsha County.

The landing of Lanjiang Expressway and Meiqing Cross-River Bridge in the Yanjiang Industrial Development Zone of Qingsha County is on the edge of the Meixi-Qingsha Metallurgical Industrial Park. After more than a year of cooperation between the two sides, including Fengli's Tuduban project, there have been 20 projects in the metallurgical industrial park, and both sides advocate that the second phase can expand the area of the cooperative park by another two square kilometers to the east.

Song Hongqi presided over the work of the Qingsha County Government at the beginning of the year, which was also a helpless move with no hope of kicking Wei Nanhui out, and Wei Nanhui officially continued to serve as the secretary of the Qingsha County Party Committee as a member of the Standing Committee of the Pingjiang Municipal Party Committee.

Although Wei Nanhui's access to political resources is far less impressive than that of Song Hongqi, and when it comes to his bold and vigorous work style and ability to seize opportunities, Song Hongqi cannot compare with him, which has been fully reflected in the brewing process before regional cooperation the year before.

Of course, Wei Nanhui is not a person who does not know how to advance and retreat, but he is unwilling to be kicked out by Song Hongqi, but he does not beat Song Hongqi as a water dog, and the work of the county government still allows him to show his skills as much as possible.

Xie Zhi also attended the groundbreaking ceremony in the afternoon, but she was not seen standing with Song Hongqi at the reception dinner, and Shen Huai felt a little strange in his heart.

Xie Zhi and Song Hongqi have been separated for a long time, but they are still married, or for no special reason, Xie Zhi will not accompany Song Hongqi to attend the reception dinner, but if something really happens, Song Hongqi will not attend the reception dinner calmly.

Although Shen Huai had doubts in his heart, he didn't think much about it, and he couldn't get in the way.

After the dinner, Tang Baocheng and others had to rush back to Xucheng overnight.

Shen Huai rarely came to Donghua, Zhou Yu and Xiong Daini were all in Donghua "waiting to be fed", naturally they couldn't leave that night without conscience, after the dinner, they chatted with Zhao Tianming and Zhou Zhibai for a while, and then made an excuse to leave the hotel and take Zhou Yu's car from the corner.
