Chapter 1821: Persuading the Puhua Group
Bao Feiyang also agrees with Chen Qizhong's view, in the process of reform and opening up, many foreign enterprises and private enterprises have developed very well, and most of their development is based on the foundation laid by state-owned enterprises.
People, technology, market, channel, supplier...... When many state-owned enterprises are in a dilemma in development, their decades of accumulation have become the nutrients for the rise of foreign enterprises and private enterprises, without the foundation laid by state-owned enterprises, many industries will be more difficult to develop, which is also the advantage of the complete industrial pattern established by Huaguo.
Towards the end of the year, Pujiang City held an annual economic work conference, and Bao Feiyang, who was not going to go, suddenly changed his mind and participated in this meeting. On the sidelines of the meeting, Bao Feiyang met Zhao Changbo, president of Puhua Group.
Zhao Changbo used to be the workshop director of Pujiang Coking Plant, the deputy director of Pujiang Rubber Tire Factory, the general manager of Pujiang Chlor-alkali Chemical Plant, and is now the president of Puhua Group, deputy secretary of the Party Committee.
"District Chief Bao, this time your Huixun District is in the limelight!" Bao Feiyang said hello to Zhao Changbo, Zhao Changbo said to Bao Feiyang with a smile, and there was no special performance on his face because of the dispute between Jingshan Chemical Industry Zone and Tianjiang Iron and Steel Park before.
"The foreign-funded projects introduced by Huixun District this year and next year can be described as a big satellite, and the construction progress of the project is gratifying, and it will definitely be praised by the leaders today......
Bao Feiyang smiled slightly and shook his head gently: "This achievement of Huixun District is not worth mentioning at all compared with brother districts and counties!"
Bao Feiyang said: "I heard that Mr. Zhao is going to the Municipal Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission after the New Year? I hope that Mr. Zhao can pay more attention to and take care of our Huixun District, our foundation in this regard is really too big, and we still need strong support from the city." ”
Zhao Changbo shook his head and said, the city is indeed considering letting Zhao Changbo work in the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, and in the construction of Jingshan Chemical Industry Park and investment promotion, Zhao Changbo's performance is very good, and he has also been valued by the city leaders.
The two exchanged a few words, and Bao Feiyang said: "I heard that the coking company has put forward the development strategy of going out, is it planning to transfer the production of traditional coking products to other places?"
Pujiang Coking has rich coking production experience and technology, stable market channels, and they will not easily give up this part of the market. Although they have lost the gas market in Pujiang, nationwide, except for a few cities with large coal mines, city gas has basically been withdrawn from the market and replaced by liquefied gas and natural gas. However, the industrial gas and gas market is still good, the coke market is generally good, in addition to steelmaking, coke is also more used, and the market prospects for tar and other products in coking production are also very good. The main problem of Pujiang coking is that the pressure of environmental protection is high, and the production process is backward and the production efficiency is not high, resulting in high production costs and limited profitability, but this is also compared with international chemical giants and joint ventures.
Zhao Changbo said: "The situation of Pujiang coking, the mayor of Bao District should also know that going out is one of the new development strategic directions of Pujiang coking, which is to use the advantages of Pujiang coking in technology and market, through the output of capital, talent and technology, in the central and western regions, using local resources and labor cost advantages, to select suitable projects for development, so as to expand the development space of Pujiang coking." Pujiang Coking has carried out research and contact on this, and it is expected that there will be substantial actions next year. ”
Bao Feiyang nodded, Pujiang Coking has made a development decision to go out in response to the development dilemma it is facing, which should be said to be very predictable. In the past 20 years of reform and opening up, the fastest growing area in China is the eastern coastal area, and in contrast, the economic development level of many areas in the interior is still far behind that of the coastal areas, especially compared with places like Pujiang. Although some of the technologies of Pujiang coking have been fundamentally advanced in the world, there are problems such as high energy consumption and low efficiency, but for some places in the mainland, such technologies and projects are still very rare and precious, and some places have low requirements for environmental protection, and the cost of investing and building factories in the mainland is easier to control, and Pujiang coking can make full use of its own advantages and obtain new development.
"Pujiang coking going out can indeed broaden its own development space, but also can support the local economic construction, which is a very important step!"
Bao Feiyang said: "However, if Pujiang coking wants to achieve greater development, it is still necessary to keep track of the world's latest technology, which cannot be solved by going to the mainland to build factories! The state has made clear the policy of encouraging the integration of steelmaking and coking, and coking in steel plants has become an inevitable trend, and coking plants and coal chemical projects are also being built at the mouth of major pits, so the market competition in this area will become more and more fierce, and if you want to remain undefeated in the fierce competition, the only way to master the core technology and achieve technological leadership!"
Zhao Changbo looked at Bao Feiyang, and suddenly smiled and said, "District Chief Bao, you suddenly told me this, could it be that you have any thoughts about Pujiang coking?"
"I know that I can't hide it from Mr. Zhao!"
Bao Feiyang said: "Tianjiang Iron and Steel Industrial Park has determined the development plan of steel-coal joint venture, the first phase of the 5 million ton long-process steelmaking project of Xinpu Iron and Steel has also confirmed that it will build its own coking, and the 5 million tons of coal-to-olefins project is also progressing smoothly. At present, the coking project of Xinpu Steel has been confirmed to have invested in Xinpu Steel, Fangta Mining and Fangxia New Materials, and the coal-to-olefin project is a joint venture between Fangxia New Materials, Fangta Mining and SASOL of South Africa. ”
Zhao Changbo was slightly stunned, obviously did not expect Bao Feiyang to issue such an invitation: "Mayor Bao, Pujiang Coking to participate in the coking project of Xinpu Iron and Steel is very feasible, but in terms of coal chemical industry, the project of Tianjiang Park and Pujiang Coking and Jingshan Chemical Industry Park should be in competition, Pujiang Coking in Jianghang plant 250,000 tons of coal-to-methanol project has been officially put into operation, and is planning to build methanol to olefins project, with the construction of Jingshan Chemical Industry Park, coal-based chemical industry may become the future pillar industry of Jianghang Chemical Park." ”
Obviously, Zhao Changbo is not very interested in Pujiang Coking's participation in the coal chemical project in the Tianjiang Park.
Bao Feiyang said: "Jianghang Chemical Industry Park is too close to the main urban area, and the environmental pressure is too great, I don't think the city will support the new project in Jianghang Chemical Industry Park." If this land can be replaced, Puhua Group can directly launch more PVC projects of more than 300,000 tons in Jingshan Chemical Industry Zone, TDI and MDI projects, and the construction of Jingshan Chemical Industry Park can also be accelerated!"
Zhao Changbo smiled: "If you can get the money immediately, Puhua Group can close all the chemical enterprises in Jiangxing now." But it's impossible......"
Zhao Changbo shook his head and said: "The construction progress of Tianjiang Iron and Steel Park can be so fast, the most important thing is that you have pulled more than one billion dollars of foreign capital in, without these billions, the start of Tianjiang Park will not be so fast." ”
Zhao Changbo said: "In contrast, Jingshan Chemical Industry Park has been under construction for many years, but the construction progress is slow, and the most fundamental reason for this is the lack of funds. We also want to be like Pujiang Iron and Steel, directly demolish the old plant, sell the land of the old factory, and then relocate to the chemical industry zone to start construction of more advanced production equipment, but the volume of Jianghang Chemical Industry Zone is too large, if it cannot be relocated as a whole, the value of the land is limited, but the overall relocation, so much land can not be digested in a few years, and it is necessary to demolish it first, and the environment will be treated well, before it is possible to transfer it, and the current Puhua Group cannot do this at all. ”
Bao Feiyang nodded: "The volume of Jianghang Chemical Industry Zone is indeed not comparable to that of Pugang Iron and Steel, and the overall relocation is indeed very difficult, but now there is a good opportunity in front of Pujiang Coking, I think Pujiang Coking should still seize this opportunity to jump out of Jianghang Chemical Industry Zone, and when more and more enterprises jump out of Jianghang, it will be easy for Jianghang Chemical Industry Zone to relocate as a whole!"
Zhao Changbo pondered for a while and said: "Bao District Chief, if Pujiang coking is to be relocated, Jingshan Chemical Industry Park will also be the first choice, after all, Jingshan's chemical supporting industries will be more complete, although the current advantages are not obvious, but with the acceleration of the construction of Jingshan Chemical Industry Park, the advantages of Jingshan Chemical Industry Park will be greater and greater, in contrast, although Tianjiang Iron and Steel Park has the advantage of steel and coal joint operation, but for the coal-to-olefin project, the role of this joint operation is not large. ”
Bao Feiyang nodded: "But I think Pujiang Coking has no plans to relocate coal-based chemicals to Jingshan Chemical Industry Zone in the near future, right?"
Zhao Changbo smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's still a matter of money, the chemical equipment is not easy to relocate, if you want to build a new plant, the investment is too large, and the liquidity of Pujiang Coking is relatively tight, and it is difficult to come up with so much money at once." The group wants to promote the construction of the chemical industry park, and there are too many projects to invest......"
Bao Feiyang smiled and said: "So Pujiang Coking's investment in the joint venture project of coal-to-olefins in Tianjiang Park is the best choice, Pujiang Coking does not need to come up with too much money at once, through technology, talents, markets and a part of the capital, you can enter the joint venture project, own part of the equity, and track the latest technology, why not?"
