Chapter Ninety-Four: Coincidence or Intentionality

Su Aijun embarked on the return journey back to Fengyuan with distress, and Fang Mingyuan did not answer his question at all. The answer is actually very simple, everyone understands it, but it just can't be reversed.

As the most populous country in Shijie, the number of school-going children in China is naturally the largest, as the flowers of the motherland, the future of the motherland, but they do not enjoy the "future" and "flowers" due treatment at all. China's annual investment in education accounts for less than 4% of the country's total GDP, far lower than the average level of Shijie announced by the United Nations, not to mention compared with European and American countries, but also compared with some underdeveloped countries!

Moreover, the rigidity and boredom of education in China are rare in the world. For the sake of the promotion rate, teachers will only pour some fixed knowledge into the students' minds, but they don't think about whether this will restrict the students' ability to imagine freely.

For example, in elementary school, if a teacher asks, "Weishenme fish can't leave water?" If the children answer, it is because the fish can only breathe in the water, and they will definitely be praised by the teacher, but if someone answers that the fish can't leave the water because there are cats on the shore, then the probability of praise is probably much lower than the possibility of being reprimanded, and praise the student for his imagination. I am afraid that there are not too many teachers who hope that he or she can relate to. In this way, over time, children will only think about problems according to a fixed mode of thinking, and there will be few fresh sparks of thought. How can you expect a child who grew up in such an education system to compete for a Nobel Prize in the future!

Fang Mingyuan also knows that the situation of Xuzhuang Primary School should actually be better than now, with the economic development of Pingchuan District, Li Dongxing and Lu Liang's funding for education is still in place, but due to various reasons, the interception of each link, the government's allocation can finally reach the school, less than 60%!

But even if you understand the shady scenes, what can you do?

Even Li Dongxing and Lu Liang have no choice. No matter how big an individual's liliang is, they can't compete with the entire system, especially these people, who still have all kinds of inextricable relationships with the city and the province, and they can only be overshadowed by the whole body at every turn!

Fang Mingyuan understood the inside story better than Su Aijun, and naturally felt more powerless.

However, Su Aijun's trip to Pingchuan was not for nothing, and after returning to Fengyuan, he would vigorously promote the cooperation between many universities in Fengyuan and Qinxi Rolling Equipment Factory. In fact, these things began to be negotiated as early as a year ago, and the two sides have already reached an agreement on cooperation, but only after the smelting research institute is officially listed, the relevant work can be officially promoted. This is also an important political achievement for him.

At the same time, Fang Mingyuan also promised to donate 5 million yuan to the Provincial Department of Education in the name of Carrefour Group to help poor college students who were admitted to universities in the province.

At the end of August, the Shanghai market has already had a bit of autumn, and as the summer vacation is coming to an end, schools of all sizes in Shanghai are busy and have begun preparations for the start of the new semester. And the most important of these is to welcome new students. The enrollment of college students is one of the most important things!

Fang Mingyuan and his entourage took a bus from Shanghai Airport to Shenhua University, and first sent Zhao Ya and Feng Qian to school. As for his and Liu Yong's East China Mutual Aid University, they will not start to register until tomorrow.

As for the matter of the Qinxi Rolling Equipment Factory, after nearly a month of back and forth, finally at the end of August, before Fang Mingyuan and them set off, all parties reached an agreement.

Basically, in accordance with the proposal of the Fang family, the eight state-owned enterprises that came to Pingchuan and the Fang family jointly established the Special Steel Association, and these nine and eleven seats were the founding members of the association! Then the nine companies jointly funded the establishment of a special steel import and export trading company, which was responsible for the import and export business of special steel for the members of the association in the future. As the initiator, the Fang family enjoys the right of veto in the association and the company in all resolutions that involve the interests of the Fang family.

At the same time, the members of the association have the right to apply for the authorization of Jishu from the Smelting Research Institute of Pingchuan District, Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province without restriction! And all the authorization money paid is used as investment in the research and development of new Jishu, so that in the future, these enterprises will also be eligible to enjoy the profit sharing. Moreover, Fang Sheng also persuaded these companies to send some of the Jishu R&D personnel in their factories to the institute to further strengthen the scientific research strength of the institute.

Naturally, this news is impossible to hide from the world, and it immediately caused an exclamation from the Huaxia Iron and Steel Industry.

But compared to this, there are two other pieces of news that are even more incredible to these people.

On 15 August, the world was greeted by exciting news from Liao Province that a large-scale coalfield had been discovered in Wuye County, Liao Province, and according to preliminary exploration, the area of the coalfield exceeded 300 square kilometers, the coal resources exceeded 1.5 billion tons, and the coalbed methane resources exceeded 7 billion cubic meters!

On August 17, good news came again from Liao Province, just 100 kilometers away from the Wuye coalfield, Liaoyuan, another shallow large iron ore with reserves of more than 2 billion tons was discovered, and the ore type of Liaoyuan iron ore is a mixed type of magnetite and hematite, and the iron ore grade is high!

These two pieces of news naturally lifted the spirits of the Huaxia Iron and Steel Industry, but while these people were excited, they were surprised to find that the modern steel mill that the Fang family was building happened to be located near these two mining areas, and the actual distance between them and the ore was not more than 80 kilometers!

The governments of the two places, which have not paid a penny and have not sent any capable exploration personnel, have lost 25 percent of the shares, and they are naturally extremely satisfied!

This can't help but make people feel very incredible! Could it be that when the Fang family first selected the site, it was already determined that there were mineral deposits in these two places? Otherwise, the location of the Weishenme steel mill was so appropriate! It can be said that the transportation cost of raw materials has been reduced to the lowest point!

People debated endlessly about this, but the Fang family was silent about it and did not give any explanation.

"What's the explanation for this, anyway, it won't be long before most of the Fang family's shares in the mine will change hands!" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.

"weishenme?weishenme is going to change hands?" Zhao Ya said with a surprised face, "Is it because the capital turnover can't be opened?" She had heard her grandfather say that these two mining areas are two cornucopias, which can continuously provide wealth for the Fang family!

"It's not a matter of funds, it's that they're too hot!" Fang Mingyuan's answer made Zhao Ya and the others feel a little confused.

In fact, from the beginning, Fang Mingyuan did not plan to completely control the two mining areas, otherwise, he would not have let the two governments have a 25% stake.

In his previous life, as a mineral explorer, Fang Mingyuan's understanding of China's coal and iron ore industries can be said to be far better than everyone now.

The iron ore industry is better, the coal industry, to put it mildly, is that there are miners' bones on every ton of coal. China's coal mining industry shoulders the heavy responsibility of the country's energy supply, at least 70% of the electricity that promotes China's economic development comes from coal, millions of Chinese coal miners are responsible for 40% of Shijie's coal production, but accidents account for nearly 80% of the world's total accidents, China's coal mine million tons of death rate is at least 30 times that of the United States, and the number of coal workers who die every year because of mining accidents is thousands! In the land of China, the occurrence of mining disasters can only be described in one word, that is, one after another, seven or eight in a month, which is simply something that everyone is accustomed to. This is only the number reported by the media, and as for how many of them have been concealed by the mining companies and the local government, I am afraid only God knows.

However, the meager profits between the market price of coal and its production costs, as well as the ineffective supervision of the relevant government departments, the inability to punish after the occurrence of mining accidents, and other factors, have made those mining enterprises, in order to be able to make more profits, ignore production safety! Anyway, a miner who dies only needs to pay some money! This little effort can be said to be a drop in the bucket compared with the cost saved by ignoring the requirements of safe production!

Part of the reason why Fang Mingyuan decided to transfer most of the equity of the two mines was that at this time, the state was still very strict in the management of the mining industry, and there were many troubles for private individuals to enter the mining industry. The Fang family has already taken the lead in the steel and petrochemical industries, and then getting involved in the mining industry will definitely cause many people to be dissatisfied.

The Fang family is a novice in the mining industry, and there is no experience before, so there will definitely be a lot of bumps and bumps when they first enter the industry, and even accidents may occur, so it is undoubtedly unwise to provide a handle to attack the Fang family for those who are dissatisfied with the other party's mining industry.

Therefore, it is enough for the Fang family to transfer the shares of these two mines to state-owned enterprises, and the state-owned mining enterprises will carry out development and production, leaving only a few shares to ensure the supply of steel mills by mining enterprises!

In this way, not only would the high-level leaders think that the Fang family knew how to advance and retreat, and knew how to measure proportions, but those who wanted to attack the Fang family would have no targets to attack. If they chirp crookedly, it will add to the boredom of the higher-ups.

Both are large mines with billions of tons of reserves, and the significance of the current domestic economic development can be imagined. As the main bearer of the preliminary work, the Fang family can be said to have taken all the risks, and Zuihou transferred most of the ownership of the mineral deposits to the state, leaving only a small part of the shares.
