Chen Shu thought about it for a while and decided to ask, Liu Chunyu also saw that Chen Shu had other things, so he didn't speak in a hurry.

"Big brother, you have also been to my steel mill, and the production capacity of the four groups of intermediate frequency furnaces cannot keep up now, let alone sell blanks, they are not enough to produce. Now the big steel mills are using electric arc furnaces, and I also want to replace them, two 80-ton ones are basically enough, and there is still a surplus!"

"Does Big Brother think it's so appropriate? Or is it appropriate to change to a larger capacity?" asked Chen Shu.

"I don't know if you have paid attention to the news announced by these two major steel groups, if you did, you would not have asked me this question. Bohai Iron & Steel Group is preparing to take the short-process steelmaking route with four 150-ton EAFs, while Great Wall Iron & Steel Group is preparing to install 3,200 m³ blast furnaces and two 210-ton converters at the same time. ”

"The larger the furnace, the higher the energy efficiency, the less pollution caused by the relative unit capacity, and the closer it is to the country's requirements in terms of energy conservation and consumption reduction.

This question was reminded by Liu Chunyu, and there was no need for Chen Shu to answer it again, so he naturally had another answer in his heart, as for the cooperation with Changli Hengxing, I would find out after a while whether the other party was really cooperating or just coping with the above policies. The specific situation can only be discussed after meeting, after all, it is not a one-time thing.

By the time Chen Shu arrived at Rongwei Steel, it was close to noon, Huo Mingqi and Guo Huaiyi came to find Chen Shu as soon as possible, and also asked Chen Shu if he had any arrangements.

"Do you know the Bohai Iron and Steel Group led by Guofeng and the Great Wall Iron and Steel Group led by Jiujiang?" asked Chen Shu after the two sat down.

"Knowing this, most of the steel mills in Fengnan and Qian'an participated, and the result I got was that it accounted for 51% of Tangshan's production capacity, and there has never been such a large-scale integration!" Mr. Guo said.

"Last year, Ruifeng lost hundreds of millions of dollars every month in September and November, and the next two months were more than 60 million. Seeing that when we raised prices in China, we broke the contract and raised prices, and when we were rapidly dropping prices in China, we couldn't drop them, and we were stained with the light of the electric furnace. ”

"This kind of integration is in line with our country's steel plan, but I don't know if it will succeed. They say that the cost of a two-million-ton production capacity enterprise is 12.3% lower than that of a million-ton enterprise, and if it reaches three million-tonnes, it will be reduced by 18.7%.

"That's theoretical data, and the cost will definitely be significantly reduced, but it's not that exaggerated. In the case of last year, there are a few steel mills that dare to expand on such a large scale, and it would be good to be able to keep the results in front of them!"

"But didn't we do it too? Hey, hey, hey, hey, I've been paying attention to this matter, and people from the city have come to check our company, and I didn't say much after seeing our approval documents, after all, if we do it in the future, it will be a very good performance." ”

"Another point I specifically checked, the people who joined these two groups are basically those small blast furnace enterprises that will be eliminated. Our goal in Tangshan is to dismantle all small blast furnaces under 300 cubic meters by 2010, which is not a small number. ”

"As far as I know, the annual production capacity of small blast furnaces is as high as 13 million tons, and the number is more than 200, and the loss last year has made these small factories even worse, and joining the two groups has become the best choice. ”

"So I think whether it's in response to the current policy or not, the possibility of it actually being established is relatively high. After all, the small blast furnace of these people still has to be dismantled, and they do not have enough funds to put on a new blast furnace that meets the scale, so merger and reorganization have become the only option. ”

"Now we have more than 200 steel mills in Tangshan, and it is estimated that after this elimination, I am afraid that there will be dozens left at most. Now that we have obtained the approval, and the instructions are still three furnaces, I suggest that the chairman of the third one start construction as soon as possible, don't miss this opportunity, otherwise I am afraid that you will not be allowed to build it in the future. Guo Huaiyi said seriously.

"What do you say?" asked Chen Shu.

"Our city is now so vigorously promoting integration, it is obvious that it is to improve efficiency, reduce energy consumption and facilitate management, and our current investment scale has definitely attracted the attention of the city, but we are not approved by them!"

"But if we really make a performance, who is it? Or is our city leader in a good way, so we have to do it as gloriously as possible." The most important thing is that our development plan includes the research and development of special steel, which is also the reason why the city does not trouble us, of course, this is just my personal feeling. Guo Huaiyi said.

After Guo Huaiyi finished speaking, Chen Shu did not rush to participate in the topic again, but instead became thinking about things, Huo Mingqi and Guo Huaiyi sat and waited for Chen Shu like this, waiting for him to say the follow-up things. But it was only a matter of a few minutes, Chen Shu raised his head and looked at the two of them.

"What do you think about replacing the electric furnace in our factory, I hurriedly asked yesterday, are there any other considerations?"

"Mr. Guo and I also considered this matter, we are only considering changing the 80-ton furnace due to the capacity limit of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, in fact, we should let the other manufacturer come to conduct a field visit to see how big the furnace is more suitable for our site. ”

"In this way, the plan they gave is more reasonable, and at the same time, it is closer to the needs of our company, after all, after this change, it may not be changed again. Lao Guo also said that we are on these intermediate frequency furnaces, if he is not able to use so many 40-ton intermediate frequency furnaces. Huo Mingqi also deliberately pouted, after all, these things were done under his leadership.

After saying this, Chen Shu also laughed, "This matter is not bad for you, after all, we are in a hurry to put into production and make money, didn't we also make great contributions, not to mention that I did this thing, didn't I have no experience at the time!"

"The idea you discussed just now is good, and we have selected the manufacturer and let them come over to conduct on-site surveys, so that we can give a more reasonable plan. There is another point to consider, that is, the possibility of upgrading and transformation in the future, after all, we are all scrap iron steelmaking now, and it is very likely to be changed to molten iron and scrap steel steelmaking in the future. ”

"Rongwei Dingsheng and us are only separated by a wall, and it may be possible to buy some molten iron from there and mix it to make steel. Many of the information I checked is in this way, and the energy consumption is lower and more environmentally friendly!"

"That's true! When I got back, I contacted the manufacturer and asked them to send someone over to conduct an on-site survey. Huo Mingqi said.

"Okay, since that's the case, it's decided, you just need to contact the manufacturer, and when we go back and build about the same time, I will discuss the loan with other shareholders, and strive to build the third furnace as Lao Guo said, so as to give us more turnover space." ”

"It's time to eat now, let's go eat, I still have to go to Changli Hengxing in the afternoon, there are still some things to talk about over there, let's go!" After speaking, Chen Shu began to rummage through the drawers to find his rice bowl.

"Don't look for it, put it in the canteen, make a shelf for everyone over there, separate the logistics and the workers, and everyone won't have to run around with a rice bowl in the future." Huo Mingqi said.

"Oh......" The voice was very long, but the smile on his face showed that it was a good job!
