Volume 11 Ten Thousand Wood Frost and the Sky is Red Section 129 The Struggle for Electricity

Guo Yuebin's eyebrows raised slightly.

Tuoda Group's steel project has been hyped in the city these days, some say that the investment is more than 500 million, some say that it is 1 billion, and even say that there will be 1 billion in the first phase of investment, and the investment in three consecutive phases within five years is as high as 5 billion.

You must know that once the two production lines of the first and second spinning mills of Xinlushan Group are debugged and start production, it means that they will increase 100,000 spindles, but this is not contrary to the central ingot policy, which refers to the backward production capacity of state-owned enterprises, rather than enterprises that have been restructured into joint-stock enterprises like Xinlushan Group.

"For the people, are you so sure?" Guo Yuebin couldn't help but ask more, knowing that this guy must have confidence, but this project is too important for Songzhou, even if he doesn't like to ask about anything that has nothing to do with his daily business, he still wants to know more about the situation.

"The project itself is the integration of Songzhou's advantages and advantages to my two friends, and the choice of the steel project, that is also a lot of thought for me, more focused on how to persuade them to upgrade the steel rolling project to a steelmaking project. As long as they approve of my last steelmaking project, then settling in Songzhou is a sure thing, and judging from their posture now, it is obvious that they have already made a steelmaking project, so I don't have much to worry about at all. Lu Weimin shrugged his shoulders and handed the brewed haode instant coffee to the other party, "Now what I should worry about is how we can promote this project if Tuoda agrees." ”

"Push it up?" Guo Yuebin hesitated, "Is there any other problem? Secretary Shang and Mayor Tong are both very supportive, what else is the problem?"

"Brother Bin, don't you think about the last iron and steel project so simply? Just support it from the city? Projects with an investment of more than 200 million yuan urgently need to be reported to the State Planning Commission, especially projects that have a relationship with the national economy and people's livelihood, such as heavy engineering. The approval process is extremely complex, the efficiency is extremely low, and the success rate is also low, especially for non-budgetary investment, and it is also a non-state-owned investment, which is more difficult to be approved. ”

Lu Weimin's tone was uncertain. There is also a lot of worry.

If it really has to be examined and approved in accordance with normal procedures, then Lu Weimin can be 100 percent sure that the Tuoda Iron and Steel steelmaking project will never be approved by the State Development Planning Commission.

The only way is to take the path of flexibility, or to play the side ball, to split a large project into several, and then through uninterrupted continuous project investment, to complete the construction of a large project.

The last time Lu Weimin hinted at it, Shang Quanzhi took it in his heart and didn't mention it anymore. And Tong Yunsong is also a middle master, not mentioning that the scale of this project exceeds the specifications of the provincial approval, and he seems to be completely unaware of the approval process here.

"Hmm, so the city is playing a side game?" Guo Yuebin also knew the doorway below. Few projects like steelmaking have actually followed the procedure, and a single project can argue that the initial investment was not exceeded, but was gradually accumulated in the process of continuous expansion and reproduction.

"Probably. Tuoda is also very clear about the doorway here, and the Ji Province side is similar to this side. Even exceeded, as long as the provinces and cities support it, although there are risks inside. But it's worth taking a risk, and it's a big deal to have a few cushions to carry the black pot. Lu Weimin's tone was a little erratic.

Guo Yuebin didn't say it again, if he wasn't sure, he never said, at best, such a big project is not an exaggeration to drive the entire Songzhou economy to take off, and the province will not see it, even if the central government thinks that this project was built before approval, it is just a post-event plank, and the wood has been completed, and naturally it can't be dealt with to any extent, which Guo Yuebin also recognized.

"And Tuoda to start this steel project, is not the initial hundreds of millions can be done, a decent steel project from front to back, the entire industrial chain construction, no billions can not be done, although my two friends are also thick, but to come up with billions of unrealistic is not realistic, not to mention that it has always been a start-up capital self-raised, follow-up funds through bank loans and other financing methods, so the support of financial institutions is very important, here it will also involve the support of financial institutions from Changjiang Province to Songzhou City, and the support of financial institutions depends on how strong the policy support for this project at the provincial and municipal levels, they can have the bottom in their hearts, there is more work here, and the connection and communication operation are all handicraft work. ”

Through communication with Radar and He Keng, Lu Weimin also initially understood Radar's thoughts, that is, once this side is finalized, Tuoda will relocate the Tuoda Iron and Steel Plant in Hebei Province as soon as possible, and the Tuoda Iron and Steel Plant is mainly two steelmaking electric furnaces and rolling equipment.

Electric furnace steel is smelted by scrap steel, the process is short, the process requirements are relatively low, and the disadvantage is that the requirements for power supply are quite high.

Songzhou is an old industrial base, the province's power distribution layout has been in the priority layout since the eighties, so there is a considerable advantage in the power supply guarantee, coupled with the overall tiredness of Songzhou industry in recent years, the electricity consumption has been greatly reduced, but also makes Songzhou Power Supply Bureau also quite complained.

In addition, the self-supplied power plant of the new Lushan Group has long been hyped, although the Songzhou Power Supply Bureau did not dare to explicitly oppose the self-provided power plant of the new Lushan Group, but the director of the power supply Zhang Wenyuan also specifically looked for Lu Weimin, and very euphemistically said that the current power supply in Songzhou is abundant, and there is no need for the new Lushan Group to invest heavily in the self-provided power plant, and the self-provided power plant will also bring a lot of pressure to the local area on the issue of environmental protection, which means that it is hoped that the new Lushan Group will give up the self-provided power plant.

Lu Weimin did not hide it, and frankly told Zhang Wenyuan about the consideration plan of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, especially the business pressure brought by the four major factories in the city to the Xinlushan Group, hoping that Zhang Wenyuan could give understanding from the overall situation of Songzhou, and not set up obstacles.

When it is only limited to understanding, Zhang Wenyuan is very wary of Songzhou's practice of throwing off the self-provided power plant project on the Songzhou Power Supply Bureau, especially the ambition shown by Lu Weimin makes Zhang Wenyuan even more vigilant, if Songzhou continues to carry out large projects or enterprise integration and reorganization in the future, all of which are self-supplied power plants to reduce the cost of operation pressure, then the Songzhou Power Supply Bureau and a group of people can only drink the northwest wind? Therefore, the Songzhou Power Supply Bureau also requested the upper level to strengthen the restrictions and approvals for the self-supplied power plants in Changjiang Province, give full play to the allocation function of the local power grid, and serve the local economic development.

At present, the power supply of Songzhou is quite abundant, especially in the case of the poor overall industrial development situation in Songzhou, the power supply is relatively rich, even if the two electric furnaces of Tuoda Steel are relocated, it will not have any impact, but with the relocation of the Tuoda electric furnace and the construction of the more critical blast furnace, coupled with the follow-up of the attached rolling project in the later stage, there may still be no gap in the power supply, but in terms of cost, electricity will become a huge constraint.

Of course, as far as the current steel price is concerned, the cost of electricity has not affected the profitability of the project, but as enterprises are eager for higher profits, Radar and He Keng have proposed the need to consider self-supplied power plants, which also makes Lu Weimin quite a headache, the new Lushan Group's self-provided power plant project has not yet been officially approved, which will not be approved by another self-supplied power plant, which will definitely not be approved, but the concern of radar and He Keng is not without reason, the steel project uses a lot of electricity, the cost is one thing, and more importantly, the power guarantee, once Songzhou industry enters the fast lane of development, then the electricity consumption will also rise rapidlyNow you may think that there is still a surplus of power supply, maybe there will be a shortage of power in two or three years, and at that time there was a shortage of electricity, which was undoubtedly fatal to Tuoda Iron and Steel, which had just entered the production benefit period, so Radar and He Keng proposed to consider building their own power plants.

It must be said that the vision of radar and He Keng is still quite sharp, the current domestic power supply is relatively abundant, but Lu Weimin has the impression that after entering the 21st century in the previous life, the phenomenon of domestic power shortage has gradually appeared, and it has begun to enter the peak after 2002, and the lack of electricity in 2003 and 2004 is even more common.

Hebei Province is located in the main coal producing area, so the local power grid power guarantee is strong, and there has been no shortage of supply, but the situation in Changjiang is different. Thermal power, because of the greater reliance on hydroelectric power, in the winter and spring when electricity is very susceptible to the impact of hydropower dry period, this is a factor that must be paid attention to for steel projects, such as Changgang is a central enterprise, the provincial network electricity key guarantee unit, but Tuoda Steel itself in the body is a dwarf, at that time you want to ask for power priority guarantee is very difficult, Radar and He Keng are not willing to be pinched by others in the neck, so there is also a strong desire in this regard.

However, it is undoubtedly difficult for Tuoda Steel to go to its own power plant, and the investment in a 100,000-kilowatt thermal power unit is at least more than 300 million yuan, and a 300,000-kilowatt unit is at least more than one billion, which is also a big burden for Tuoda, so how to balance the relationship between Xinlushan Group, Tuoda Iron and Steel and Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government is also a considerable work.
