"Does Mayor Bao mean that Pujiang Coking will participate in the coal-to-olefin project jointly built by Fangxia New Materials, Fangta Mining and South Africa's SASOL Company?"

Bao Feiyang said: "It depends on how much Pujiang Coking or Puhua Group can invest, and if Puhua Group is willing, even if it is to lead the coking project and coal chemical project." ”

Zhao Changbo couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Puhua Group's focus now is on the construction of Jingshan Chemical Industry Zone, in order to build Jingshan Chemical Industry Zone, all the methods we can think of have been used, even if we want to participate in the coking project of Xinpu Steel, we have no capital investment." ”

Bao Feiyang smiled and said: "Pugang and Puhua are both municipal enterprises, you can discuss this with the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission!"

The Park Development Company and Xinpu Iron and Steel are both municipal enterprises, of which the Park Development Company is 100 percent state-owned, Pujiang City holds 50 percent of the rights and interests of the park company through the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and the Urban Investment Company, and Huixun District controls the remaining 50 percent. Xinpu Steel's shares are more complicated, with the park company holding 50 percent of the shares, the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and the Urban Investment Company holding another 15 percent, and the Huixun District State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission holding 5 percent, which is more than 70 percent of the state-owned shares.

Although the state-owned shares account for the vast majority, because of the existence of other shareholders, especially foreign shareholders, it is impossible for the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission to let Xinpu Steel directly transfer its rights and interests to Pujiang Coking.

However, if Puhua Group can get the support of the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) and let the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission allocate a part of the investment originally allocated to Pujiang Coking to Pujiang Coking, this matter will not be very complicated to operate.

In Bao Feiyang's view, no matter which way Puhua Group and Pujiang Coking come in, as long as they participate in the construction of the Xinpu Steel Coking Project, there is no possibility of getting out halfway and starting anew.

Zhao Changbo also knew Bao Feiyang's intentions, he didn't agree directly, just said that he would consider it, but he was really a little moved by the plan proposed by Bao Feiyang.

Xinpu Iron and Steel is going to start the coking project, and Tianjiang Park is going to develop coal-based chemical industry, and the relevant plans have been reviewed and determined, which can be said to be a certainty. Now that the coking project of Xinpu Steel has identified a partner, there will be no problems with the coal-based chemical project led by Fangxia Group. After all, Fangxia Group's partner is the world's largest coal chemical group, South Africa's SASOL, Fangxia Group has two Hong Kong-listed companies, strong financial strength, and they have enough strength to ensure the investment and construction of coal-based chemical projects in Tianjiang Park.

In contrast, Puhua Group has much more difficulties in developing coal-based chemical industry in Jianghang Chemical Industry Zone, and the scale and technology of Pujiang Coking's coal-to-methanol project and the planned olefin project are originally leading in China, and if they can be successfully completed, they will become the largest and most technologically advanced coal-based chemical industry base in China. However, the coal-based chemical project to be built in Tianjiang Park with Fangxia Group, whether it is scale or technology, Pujiang coking project is much behind, and in addition to the 250,000 tons of coal-to-methanol project that has been built, the olefin project that is still under planning has not yet started construction, although the olefin market is very large, Fangxia Coal Chemical can not eat it, and behind Pujiang coking is still standing Puhua Group, their olefins can be directly transported to Jingshan Chemical Industry Zone for subsequent processing, do not worry about not selling.

But Zhao Changbo also knows that advanced technology and equipment represent better product quality and lower production costs, and will lead in environmental protection costs, safety and other aspects. Zhao Changbo also did not want the newly built equipment of Pujiang Coking to be backward. Pujiang coking could not get more advanced technology before, but at least it was leading in China, and now it is suppressed by the city's enterprises, and there has been a controversy within the company, considering whether to go to the olefin project.

Now there is an opportunity to participate in the Pugang Coking Project and Fangxia's Coal Reduction Project, which is indeed a good choice for Pujiang Coking. Although Pujiang Coking is likely not to take the lead in the project with such participation, this cannot be said to be a bad choice. In fact, in the construction of Jingshan Chemical Industry Park, Puhua Group has adopted this method in some projects. With the cooperation of BASF and Bayer, Puhua Group has little interest in the project, but at least the introduction of Bayer and BASF's advanced chemical projects, even if Bayer and BASF have strict control over technology, but by borrowing chickens and eggs, they can still have more accumulation in talents, technology and management, not to mention that according to the cooperation agreement, Bayer and BASF will carry out some technical exchanges and technology transfer with Puhua Group. Once it gets rid of the current development dilemma, Puhua Group is expected to master more advanced chemical technology.

In contrast, with the cooperation of Xinpu Iron and Steel and Fangxia Coal Chemical, Puhua Group and Pujiang Coking can fight for more rights and interests, and may not be unable to take the lead in some projects.

As rumored to be, Zhao Changbo has basically decided that he will leave the Puhua Group and go to work in the Municipal Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, so his perspective will not be limited to the Puhua Group, of course, he will still consider the interests of the Puhua Group.

After returning to the group, Zhao Changbo called Bai Zhengyi, the general manager of Pujiang Coking, and told the other party the situation: "Yesterday when I had a meeting in the city, I met the head of Bao District of Huixun District, and the head of Bao District talked about the cooperation between Pujiang Coking and Xinpu Iron and Steel and Fangxia Coal Chemical, and it is said that Tianjiang Park has also contacted you?"

Bai Zhengyi nodded and said: "Chen Qizhong from Tianjiang Park contacted me and said that he could let us participate in the Xinpu Steel Coking Project and Fangxia Coal Chemical Project, but I did not agree, after all, our base in Jianghang has formed a production scale of 250,000 tons of methanol, and reinvesting in the construction of olefin projects can deepen the industrial chain ...... the park."

Zhao Changbo shook his head and said: "The first phase of Fangxia Coal's coal project is five million tons, and it uses the most advanced technology of South Africa's SASOL. ”

Bai Zhengyi looked at Zhao Changbo cautiously: "Mr. Zhao, do you mean that we should cooperate with Xinpu Steel and Fangxia Coal Chemical? It's just that I'm worried that this kind of cooperation, our coking plant can get too few rights and interests!"

Zhao Changbo nodded, in the cooperation, how much rights and interests can be obtained depends on their respective investment and strength. Now the situation of Puhua Group and Pujiang Coking, it is indeed difficult to come up with much real money. However, in addition to funds, there are not many things that Pujiang Coking can come up with, after all, Pujiang Coking has old equipment and backward technology, which plays little role in new projects.

As for the thousands of employees of Pujiang Coking, those skilled and experienced workers are indeed a valuable asset, but this may only win the opportunity for Pujiang Coking to participate in cooperation, and it is difficult to convert specific rights and interests. The wage level of Pujiang Coking is very low, and there is no competitiveness in terms of treatment at all.

Zhao Changbo said: "You should study this matter first, and see what kind of conditions we can participate in the Xinpujiang coking project and Fangxia coalification project, if feasible, we can win the support of the city under specific conditions!"

Zhao Changbo said: "Jianghang Chemical Industry Zone has obvious location disadvantages, although it will not consider relocation in recent years, but Pujiang Coking still has to adhere to the strategy of going out, and Xinpugang is not an opportunity." ”

Zhao Changbo did not rush to make a decision, but asked Pujiang Coking to conduct research and analysis first. In addition to Pujiang coking, Puhua Group also has different opinions, some people think that Bao Feiyang is looking at Pujiang coking in the coking industry and coal chemical experience, technology and market resources, but do not want to pay the corresponding price, if you want Pujiang coking and Fangxia coal chemical cooperation, Pujiang coking must master the leading power, otherwise this cooperation is not feasible. There are also some people who believe that the olefin project of Pujiang coking should be placed in Jingshan Chemical Industry Zone, of course, some people think that the Jianghang plant is not yet the time to give up, and the olefin project in Jianghang can maximize the benefits of Pujiang coking's methanol project.

Of course, there are also people who believe that the cooperation with Xinpu Steel and Fangxia Coal Chemical is feasible, after all, the investors of these two projects are very large, and the project advantages are obvious, and the prospects are very promising. If you can participate in the project investment at a small cost at this time, you will definitely be able to obtain considerable benefits in the future. In addition, through this cooperation, Pujiang Coking can also obtain more advanced coking technology and technology, as well as advanced technology and advanced technology in coal chemical industry, even if it cannot grasp the leading power in the cooperation, it will be of great benefit to Pujiang Coking to implement the strategy of going global.

In the face of some controversies in the Puhua Group, Zhao Changbo still did not rush to make a decision, and also asked the group's strategic department to conduct research first. However, his actions did not stop, but took the opportunity to find Guo Fenghe, director of the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and mentioned the matter.

"Pujiang Coking's participation in the construction of Tianjiang Iron and Steel Industrial Park is beneficial to the park, to Xinpu Iron and Steel, and to Pujiang Coking...... "Zhao Changbo said: "It's just that Puhua Group is now going to build Jingshan Chemical Industry Park, and Pujiang Coking's business situation is not too good, and it has no strength to invest!"
