Chapter 723: Industry Problems

This time Hua Xinyu said the truth, in fact, as long as the rare earth industry insiders are aware of this problem, the reason why the country restricts the export quota of rare earth is precisely because of this problem, but simply restricting exports can not solve this industry problem, because of the backward technology and imperfect industrial chain, it is difficult for Huaxia to obtain the international pricing power of rare earth export prices, and even because of this, it has brought great international pressure to Huaxia, the United States, The European Union and Japan have jointly sued Huaxia against TO for violating the TO rules by restricting the export of rare earths, and although Huaxia has appealed, it is likely to lose the lawsuit, and Huaxia will have to cancel the export quota restrictions on rare earths.

On the other hand, domestic rare earth mining enterprises are also complaining about the country's export restrictions on rare earths, because the country's restrictions on rare earth exports are mainly affected by large state-owned rare earth mining enterprises, while those private small rare earth mining enterprises are not limited by you, they can still sell rare earths through smuggling channels, there are statistics, after the state restricts the export of rare earths, rare earth smuggling accounts for nearly one-third of the exports, and these private small rare earth mining enterprises are indiscriminately mining, and are unwilling to invest in environmental protection, production costs are much lower than those of large state-owned rare earth mining enterprises, and smuggling does not have to pay tariffs, so the price of rare earths they sell is very low, which is also an important reason why the export price of rare earths cannot rise.

It can be said that the current rare earth industry in China is internal and external troubles, the road is getting narrower and narrower, Liaoyuan Rare Earth Group is also because it has the second largest deposit in China, the foundation is thick, so the temporary benefits are passable, but if the international rare earth market continues to fall like this, I am afraid that the good days will not last long.

As the chairman of Liaoyuan Rare Earth Group, Hua Xinyu is naturally clear about this situation, and he is also very anxious, but he feels powerless, because this is no longer a problem involving a company in Liaoyuan Rare Earth Group, but the entire rare earth industry is facing this problem, which is far from being solved at his level.

Hua Xinyu has worked in the rare earth industry for decades, from an ordinary worker to the chairman of Liaoyuan Rare Earth Group, whether it is for this company or the entire industry, he has deep feelings, so Duan Yu's reprimand did not make him feel embarrassed, on the contrary, it also aroused his inner worries. Governor Duan, in fact, you criticize me, but I am very happy, which shows that you attach great importance to our rare earth industry, and that you have seen the crisis faced by the rare earth industry, if the country does not pay attention to the problems faced by the rare earth industry, this industry is likely to be ruined! Alas!".

Seeing Hua Xinyu's true feelings, Duan Yu also realized that he might have misunderstood him, so he slowed down and said: "Comrade Xinyu, I'm sorry, my tone was a little heavy just now, this problem is not your personal problem, nor is it a problem of Liaoyuan Rare Earth Group, but it is a problem we must face, it doesn't matter if there is a problem, let's solve it together, by the way, you said that you have written reports to the State Council and the province, are these reports still there? Can you show them to me?... ...?"

"In... Yes, I'll go and get it for you..."Hua Xinyu replied busily, stood up excitedly, and prepared to go to the office to get the report in person.

"Ahem... At this time, He Shuiyuan, who was sitting next to Duan Yu, suddenly coughed heavily, and secretly scolded Hua Xinyu for making the old mistake again, Hua Xinyu's report was actually read by him, and he told Hua Xinyu at that time, saying that he was salty and eating radishes and worrying about it, is it useful for you to write this report? This is an industry problem, no one can solve it, don't you give the province a problem? The province will definitely say that our industry authorities are not well managed, and if I suffer from the board, your life will not be easy!

Hua Xinyu was also excited to say that he had written a report, He Shuiyuan coughed to make him wake up, before he wrote a report to the province, at that time it was Jia Chunyu as the governor, Jia Chunyu understated a few words on the report, "Please increase the supervision of the industry authorities and come up with solutions" , then transferred the report to the Department of Land and Resources, but the result was to let the Liaoyuan Rare Earth Group stop production for a month, he later asked a lot of relationships to intercede with He Shuiyuan, He Shuiyuan relented and agreed to let the Liaoyuan Rare Earth Group resume production, at the dinner table He Shuiyuan also ruthlessly told him again, saying that he was not sensible, and poked the matter to the top, and finally did not have to ask them for the head of the competent department of these specific affairs.

Thinking of this, Hua Xinyu couldn't help but secretly regret that he was too impulsive, as the so-called county officials are not as good as the current management, although Duan Yu is the governor, it is impossible to ask about everything, and offending He Shuiyuan, the leader in charge, is endless, and the steps that have already been taken are retracted, and he hesitates to find an excuse to prevaricate Duan Yu.

Duan Yu naturally noticed He Shuiyuan's small movements, and immediately turned his head and glared at He Shuiyuan fiercely, and said sternly: "Director He, are you uncomfortable in your throat? If you are uncomfortable, please go back, you don't have to participate in this investigation... ...."

"No, no, I just smoked too much, and I couldn't help coughing twice......"He Shuiyuan covered up a little panicked.

Duan Yu didn't listen to his explanation, waved his hand to Hua Xinyu and said, "Comrade Xinyu, don't have any worries, since I have found a problem, I must take care of it to the end, you go and bring the report to ... ...."

Hua Xinyu knew that he had offended He Shuiyuan, and it was useless to regret it, so he simply let it go, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go get it!"

He Shuiyuan also knew that this time he was afraid that he would not be able to cover the lid, and he would definitely be beaten by the board, and he resented Duan Yu in his heart, and said in his heart, Do you think you can do it? The problems faced by the rare earth industry, as long as people who understand this industry know it, the central government must also know it, otherwise there would be no restrictions on rare earth export quotas, but the problem is still not solved, why? It is because there are too many problems involved, in addition to the poor management of the industry, Subjective problems such as fierce vicious competition in the industry, and objective reasons such as backward technology and imperfect industrial chain, are far from being solved by issuing a few administrative orders and rectifying the industry several times.
