Tian Jiageng's affairs are busy, and he relied heavily on Li Gu in the past, but now Li Gu can't be completely thrown away immediately, and the position of the provincial party committee office is still concurrent.

At the same time, the restructuring work of the provincial enterprises is complicated, involving a wide range of areas, and has a far-reaching impact on the province's economy.

When he came over in the evening, Li Gu reported the meeting with Shen Huai in the afternoon to Tian Jiageng, and finally said with a smile: "Secretary Tian, do you say that Shen Huai is self-respecting as an enemy, or do you want to join forces?"

"You have both meanings, right?" Tian Jiageng tapped the pen in his hand lightly on the table and said, "The production organization of the Huai Coal Group is good, the Xudong Railway has been renovated, and the large framework of the Huai Coal East has been built, and the construction of the coal trading market will be discussed there, and the conditions will be more mature." However, when it really comes to that point, the construction of the coal trading market in the province only needs to be provided by Xinpu to provide land, and it is impossible for several coal companies to sit together, and it is impossible to ask Meigang to come in; even if Xinpu is set aside and set up directly in Huaixi City, it is also possible. Shen Huai is now taking the lead, it seems that he has a premonition that Song Qiaosheng and they are going to close the net against the Huaineng Group......"

"It was said before that Cheng Wenguang's daughter and Shen Huai have maintained a relationship for two years, and the relationship has not made any progress, but in fact, the relationship is not as alienated as imagined," Li Gu said, "Now that there are still old people in the Song family, the problem will not be completely exposed, but Cheng Wenguang may not choose to support Shen Huai in the end." ”

"Cheng Wenguang is a very pragmatic and forbearant person, so I won't talk about this," Tian Jiageng said, "By the way, if you want to start a coal trading market now, what conditions can be used in Xinpu?"

"After the completion of the east extension of the Xudong Railway, it can only squeeze out more than one million tons of capacity for coal transportation," Li Gu said, "but the iron coal terminal of Xinpu Steel Plant can squeeze out four million tons of throughput, and the gap between this can be made up by using the Zhujiang waterway, and the efficiency and power can be greatly improved by using Xinpu transit, which is the biggest benefit to the entire industry." Shen Huai mentioned this concept at this time, and it should be necessary to preemptively control the coal transfer link......"

"Have you formed a more specific idea?" Tian Jiageng asked, digging out the comprehensive development plan of Xinpu Port from a pile of documents in the corner of his desk, and asked Li Gu to be more specific.

Li Gu helped spread out the drawings, first found the iron and coal terminal under construction at Xinpu Steel Plant, and said: "The construction of the coal trading market has left the hardware foundation such as transportation, storage and transit. Shen Huai has a very strong planning ability, and when the site selection and construction of the Xinpu steel plant and power plant were selected, the issue of large-scale construction of coal transit port was considered. The site is located on the two-kilometre-long coastline between the Sinpo Steel Plant and the Sinpo Power Plant,"

Li Gu hooked up the Xinpu Steel Plant with the Xinpu Power Plant and said, "The end point of the eastern extension of the Xudong Railway will also be inserted between this stretch of coastline." After the completion of the double-track reconstruction of the Xudong Railway, there are two plans for the construction of a large-scale coal transit port: one is to rely on the coal conveying terminal under construction of the Xinpu Power Plant controlled by the Huaineng Group to expand to the south, so that the Huaineng Group can occupy a dominant position in the construction of the coal transit port; The concept that Shen Huai is now proposing is to adopt the second plan, and Xinpu can provide 500 acres of coal storage and transportation land in advance, waiting for the Huai Coal Group to enter the game. In terms of industrial scale layout, there is nothing unreasonable, but it can also be seen that Shen Huai has maintained a high degree of refinement for Huaineng Group from the beginning, and he has always been prepared with both hands......"

"What about your opinion?" asked Tian Jiageng.

"We don't know how long it will take for the Xudong railway reconstruction project to be negotiated, but the east extension line has already broken ground. Unless the entire double-track reconstruction can be set aside in the future, the east extension line can be set aside, and another seaport can be selected, otherwise the province can only choose between the Huaineng Group and Meigang on the issue of building a coal transit port," Li Gu said, "and now in the coal mining field in the province, the opening of the Huaineng Group, there is no way to retract it, and if the Huaimei Group is not strengthened and supported at this time, the chips that will be lost in the future are likely to be a lot ......."

Tian Jiageng nodded and said: "Rectify now, the benefits of improving the coal industry in the province far outweigh the disadvantages, considering the resistance problem, if the Huai Coal Group is determined, then you can start with the Huai Coal Group." When you come up with a specific plan, I will give instructions......"

Li Gu nodded, Secretary Tian can give instructions, whether it is external or internal, the voices and actions of opposition will be much more restrained.

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

Shen Huai and Cheng Yi rushed to their sister-in-law's house for dinner, and they also talked about the problem of the coal trading market during the banquet, and the sister-in-law's husband Tang Jianmin smiled and said: "You are a self-respecting enemy......

"Huaineng Group is a state-owned enterprise, Huai Coal Group is a state-owned enterprise, no matter who you cooperate with and develop, you can't talk about capital enemies," Shen Huai said with a smile, "Besides, Huaineng Group's entry into coal development is first of all to develop thermal coal resources used in power plants and improve the internal industrial chain." If Meigang's coke order is not handed over to the Huai Coal Group, who else can it be handed over? Of course, Huai Coal can only digest a part of it at this stage, and we still have to make some benefits from it. This year and next year, the economic situation may change cyclically, if the iron and coal terminal can operate at full capacity after completion, it can increase the revenue of Xinpu Iron and Steel by at least 40 to 50 million. Now Sinpo has such a large amount of debt, I have to take precautions......"

Song Wenhui asked Cheng Yi: "What does the People's Bank of China think about the economic cycle?"

Cheng Yi smiled and said, "I haven't had a formal job yet, and I haven't had any contact with the provincial people's bank. ”

Cheng Yi entered the provincial people's bank, engaged in international legal affairs, even if he has some understanding of the economic cycle, it is mostly hearsay, but he will not say anything at this time.

After eating at his sister-in-law's house, Shen Huai sent Cheng Yi back to the dormitory, and then drove back to Donghua overnight.

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

In less than 20 days before the Spring Festival, Meigang reorganized Xucheng Oil Refining through backdoor reorganization, passed the approval of the Securities Regulatory Commission and other departments before the Spring Festival, and changed its name to Meixi Industry to be relisted and traded.

On the first day of the restructuring and listing, there was no limit on the decline of the company, and half an hour after the opening of Meixi Industry, it doubled directly from 2.8 yuan per share before the suspension, and slowly fell back to below 5 yuan at the close. In one day, Meixi Industry entered the list of listed companies with a market value of more than 7 billion.

In the past 20 days, Huaineng Group has successively made personnel adjustments, and Zheng Xuanfeng, Ye Yiwu and others have arrived one after another.

Meigang started the negotiation process with the Huai Coal Group on the supply of coke and the joint construction of a coal trading market; Qin Dawei and Wu Hao were both transferred to the Huai Coal Group on secondment to take charge of the preparation for the establishment of the coal trading market.

In Donghua City, the work of establishing a city commercial bank was also carried out on the basis of the city credit cooperative.

The municipal government set up an asset management office, with Han Shouchun concurrently serving as the director of the asset management office, with Mayor Gao Tianhe directly in charge and Xiong Wenbin no longer in charge; the municipal government invested in the establishment of Donghua New Media Group, and reorganized the business of the city's television station, radio station, and Donghua Daily, with Qi Jingyao concurrently serving as the general manager.

In exchange, all the state-owned shares of the city credit union in the city's hands will be transferred to the BII Group, which will have full authority to represent the city and participate in the establishment of the Donghua City Commercial Bank together with the Industrial Credit Bank and others.

In addition to the construction of the Zhunan refining and chemical infrastructure after the year, Xinpu Refining & Chemical has also started preparatory work in the form of a feasibility study topic.

At the end of the year, Xiapu County was also a bunch of deployment work and meetings, plus a bunch of annual summaries, which made Shen Huai inseparable.

After the Spring Festival, in late February, Meigang formally signed an agreement with Huai Coal Group, agreeing that Huai Coal Group will supply 800,000 tons of blast furnace coke every year, and the other half of the coke will be purchased from large coal enterprises in Hebei Province.

Meigang, Xinpu Development Group and Huai Coal Group jointly injected 150 million yuan to establish a joint stock limited company controlled by Huai Coal Group, relying on the iron coal terminal of Xinpu Steel Plant to jointly build a coal trading market, and the first phase of the construction of a storage and transit base with an annual trading volume of 5 million tons of coal.

Qin Dawei was formally transferred to the Huai Coal Group and served as the general manager of the joint venture joint stock company as a member of the party group of the Huai Coal Group, and Wu Hao was appointed as the assistant to the general manager.

At the same time, Xinpu Shipping Group signed an agreement with Huai Coal Group to jointly undertake the main coal transit and transportation tasks of Huai Coal Group in the Zhujiang River Channel with the shipping companies under Huai Coal Group.

Previously, nearly 2 million tons of coal were transported by intermediate traders to various parts of East China for sale every year, mainly through the Zhujiang River.

The most important significance of this move is that the coal sold by Huai Coal Group to East China will be mainly concentrated in Xinpu Port for transit.

For Huaimei Group, in addition to strengthening the control of market coal and preventing the loss of profits, transit transportation will also greatly reduce logistics costs, improve efficiency, and greatly improve the capacity of external transportation.

The initial goal of the coal trading market will also help Huaimei Group gradually increase its export of coal to the East China market from the current 2 million tons to 5 million tons within two years.

The whole plan hurt some vested interests who were attached to the Huai Coal Group to suck blood, and there was resistance, but with Tian Jiageng's instructions, it was quickly approved by the province, and the implementation began in March.

Although it takes time for the coal trading market to build its own storage and transit base, the storage and transportation base of the storage yard on the side of Xinpu Steel Plant has been built, and part of the surplus can be leased to the trading market, so at the same time as the limited company is incorporated, the entire coal trading market has the conditions for operation.

Of course, the establishment of the coal trading market, in addition to ensuring Meigang's right to speak on the coal energy industry in Huaihai Province in the later stage, the most realistic significance for the investors involved in the investment and construction of Xinpu Steel Mill is that the coal trading market is built on the iron and coal wharf of Xinpu Steel Mill in the early stage.

The annual coal transit throughput of four to five million tons, with a transaction volume of more than 10 to 2 billion yuan, will provide an additional net income of 30 to 50 million yuan for the iron and coal terminal.

As the most important supporting project of Xinpu Steel Plant, the iron coal terminal has a total investment of up to 400 million yuan, and now it can obtain an additional net income of 350 million yuan per year by relying on the coal trading market.

Xinpu Development Group injected 500 acres of industrial reserve land into the trading market as a capital contribution, and although it did not receive direct cash income, it obtained a 30% stake.

In a short period of time, the most direct benefit for Xinpu, that is, Xiapu County, is probably that the traders and middlemen who were previously dependent on the Huai Coal Group will be forced to move to Xiapu due to the transactions in the coal trading market.

When the establishment of the coal trading market became a fact, dozens of coal trading companies registered or set up branches in Xiapu in March.

Before the completion of the trading building, the trading hall of the coal trading market was temporarily located inside the business credit building. The tower of the Karma Xin Building has not yet been finalized, but the office building of the tower department was rented out by late March.
