When Wang Yongqing went to the mainland, he must have gone to the capital. The objects of his negotiations are all state leaders, and he has nothing to do with Sioux City.

Su Cheng couldn't influence the big guys, so he could only work Wang Sheng, asking: "Has Formosa Plastics' goal changed?"

This sentence is a question that has no beginning or end, but those in the know understand it. Formosa Plastics' previous goal was to ask the mainland to provide good policies, ensure low costs, and not seek rapid production, and by the way, prompt the Taiwan government to pass the six-light proposal.

It is indeed not easy for such a goal to be recognized in China. Formosa Plastics is actually taking advantage of the blockade of Chinese mainland by Western countries, waiting for opportunities to earn rare benefits in ordinary times. However, on the other hand, the mainland does not mean to use Formosa Plastics. During the lockdown, there are $7 billion in investment intentions, which also shows the trust that business owners have in the mainland.

Air-to-air on both sides, apart from causing verbal cannons, is all political stuff. The Sioux City Committee is really unintentional. From his personal point of view, the implementation of the Haicang plan is still very good, 700,000 tons of ethylene and 10 million oil refineries, a big impact on the domestic petrochemical industry, both public and private.

However, it is not interesting to delay too late at the base. $7 billion in 1990 was rare, 1995 may still be rare, but in 2000 it was just average. At that time, Sinopec and PetroChina, which are rich and powerful, are estimated not to let Formosa Plastics lead such a large project, and they will go to build a petrochemical base. However, it is not unusual for such a large project to waste four or five years of time with Formosa Plastics. There are also various downstream factories from Taiwan, which are subject to changes in Taiwan's political situation. It's definitely slow, too.

Historically, Formosa Plastics abandoned the Haicang plan two years later to specialize in the six light projects, and only began construction in 1999, and the six light plans were proposed in 1973, 26 years apart.

A factory, with 20 years of stamping. To prepare, this tenacity and ambition, even Sioux City can only admire. Marvel at the past. It is necessary to worry, in the words of experience, Wang Yongqing can wait for 20 years of six light. Why can't you wait for the 20-year Haicang plan?

If it weren't for his age, Formosa Plastics might have landed on the mainland, maybe not 700,000 tons of ethylene, but 1.4 million tons at that time.

The goal of Sioux City, which was based on the "prophet", was simple and clear, however, Wang Sheng and Wang Keling were difficult to understand.

Wang Sheng hesitated for a moment and replied, "I don't know the specific situation, I think it's just a routine meeting." ”

There are really not many people who can meet with the leaders of the country on a regular basis, and Su Cheng sighed and was a little disappointed, and said, "Say so." Hasn't the goal changed?"

"With such a significant investment, how can it not be carefully considered. Wang Keling stood up and said solemnly: "We must fully consider all kinds of risks. ”

"Do you agree to take your time?" Su Cheng was not surprised by Wang Keling's attitude, but just asked very usually.

Wang Keling snorted and said, "The market economy has its own laws. The two sides negotiated, of course, to take their time. ”

Su Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that you will take your time and end up wasting time." ”

"What do you mean?"

"China's economic development is very fast, and the central government is very happy that you are now investing 7 billion yuan. But you are not satisfied, and you want better treatment. In a few years, if you invest 7 billion, it is estimated that you will just be happy, and at that time, it will not be easy to keep your current treatment. In a few years' time, $7 billion may only be able to receive such a reception at the provincial level. Su Cheng was telling the truth, but the people around him were confused.

Wang Keling laughed twice: "Brag." That's $7 billion, and how much does the mainland invest in a year?"

"The economy is growing. ”

Wang Keling expressed disbelief.

Sioux City was helpless. China's economic growth rate has not yet begun to maintain an annual growth rate of more than 8%. No country or individual believes that China will be able to maintain a high growth rate of more than 8% for 20 consecutive years. The Chinese themselves don't believe it.

The most popular analogy in Western countries to China is India, which has an annual GDP growth rate of about 4% and a better starting foundation than China. So, when China announced an 8% or 9% GDP increase, there were constant doubts. However, after 10 years and 20 years of development, the gap between China and India has widened, but as Sioux City said, by 2010, how will China's central government bend over the $7 billion investment?

China before 1992 was the last chance for Formosa Plastics to invest a lot of money. If they hold firm, they will not only be able to earn large sums of profits and political prestige, but will also be able to expand their production and marketing networks to the mainland. At the same time, China can also use Formosa Plastics to develop its own petrochemical industry.

However, after this point, good things are no longer good.

Looking at Wang Keling's expression, Su Cheng was a little funny and stingy, and after thinking about it, he was blindly worried here, what to say to a hairy boy, and shook his hand to say goodbye.

Wang Sheng sent them out, and when he came back, Wang Keling also complained: "Such a rising boy, what is there to say, you also sent them out." ”

Wang Sheng didn't want to speak, but looking at his attitude, he thought about it and said, "Keling, do you remember the purpose of the group's construction of the Rongda factory?"

"It shows that we are negotiating sincerely. Wang Keling exhaled and said, "In this way, the pressure on us on the island will be even greater, and if you want me to say, we will not build this factory." ”

"The construction of the Rongda factory has increased our pressure on the island, but it can reduce our pressure on the mainland and prompt the agreement to be signed as soon as possible. Do you know why the pressure on us on the continent has increased?"

"Dahua Petrochemical. "Wang Keling is the person in charge of the factory, how can he not know the inside story.

Without Wang Sheng to say more, Wang Keling thought deeply, and after a while, he said: "So, Su Cheng, this hairy boy, is the one who presses us to accelerate?"

"That's right, it is through methanol tanks, 120,000 tons to 200,000 tons, and to 500,000 tons. If we don't ask, I really can't say whether the Haicang base will be occupied by him. "Wang Sheng didn't just say it. For example, Taiwan's Six Light Plan, counting to 1990, has been 17 years, and it has not yet started. If Dahua increases production at a rate of 120,000 tons per year, it will have 1.2 million tons in 10 years. In Southeast Asia, this is able to support the output of hundreds of small factories, and it is not impossible to occupy the allocated land of the Haicang plan.

Wang Keling didn't believe it, and said, "I'm afraid he doesn't have the ability." ”

Wang Sheng smiled bitterly. What do you say about this thing?

The two were relatively silent. After a while, Wang Keling said with a little regret: "If it weren't for the increase in methanol prices, Dahua Petrochemical's capital is estimated to have problems." It would be nice to be half a year earlier, or a year later, just so that they can earn an underwriting contract and stabilize the rear. ”

The underwriting contract was negotiated by Wang Sheng, and it was approved by the board of directors, and now it was taken out, Wang Sheng said ashamedly and angrily: "Dahua has an oil field in its name, where will the cash dry up." ”

Besides, the United Nations has passed resolutions to sanction Iraq, and after the war starts, the UAE will not have to ship oil out. When Iraq attacked Kuwait, the proclamation was carried by the United Arab Emirates. "Wang Keling did come back from studying abroad, not from clubbing, and he knows a lot about relationship issues.

Although Wang Sheng is a side branch of the Wang family, he was impatient to ridicule, and said directly: "Dahua has leased an oil pipeline in the United Arab Emirates, and the crude oil is transferred to Saudi Arabia for transportation. ”

"Oh, you're a bit of a skill. Wang Keling twisted his chin, this trick was obviously learned from his father, he was too young and a little nondescript.

Wang Sheng left the office speechlessly and let Wang Keling play alone. Chapter 285 announced that it would also invest another $40 million to install 80,000 tons of methanol equipment, increasing production to 300,000 tons per year.

Wang Sheng was not surprised that Su Cheng had such a move, but just browsed it quickly.

"You see it. At some point, Wang Keling stood behind him.

Wang Sheng nodded and said, "I know that Su Cheng is not worrying, it seems that it is the news released yesterday." ”

"Just announced the investment, neither equipment nor production, I don't know how so many people praised his stinky feet. ”

Wang Sheng raised his head a little strangely. I thought: Didn't we just announce one investment news, and countless people met with it?

Wang Keling didn't notice anything, vented two sentences, bowed his head and said: "The chairman asked me to invite Su Cheng to Bei*Beijing." ”

"Chairman?"

"I guess we're going to talk about it. ”

"300,000 tons of methanol is indeed a lot. He chose gas head methanol, the unit price of the equipment is high, and he has natural gas underwritten. The price is cheap and the quantity is large. ”

"Let him get cheap, and as soon as the war comes, the price of natural gas will rise. ”

"Fortunately, it didn't go up much. Wang Sheng could only comfort himself like this.

Wang Keling sat down and said, "It's okay, if grandpa comes forward, no matter what kind of trading method, things can be smoothed out, so that we don't have a good place here." Mr. Wang, you go and invite Su Cheng, the relationship between the two of you seems to be good. ”

"I also talked about our 4 million tons of crude oil contract with Dahua. Wang Sheng said something pointedly. The petrochemical industry's thirst for crude oil is almost limitless, and being able to sign long-term crude oil contracts is considered a meritorious achievement. Moreover, the money lent by Formosa Plastics to Sioux City was also returned with interest, and judging from the results, Wang Shengtan's contract was impeccable.

Wang Keling saw that Wang Sheng's expression became serious, and when he thought that the two of them still had to work together, his stinky face disappeared in a blink of an eye, and he was replaced by a smile.
