For Ma Yiping, introducing the situation in Hanping County is a familiar thing. He asked his staff to hand Ning Mo a copy of the investment promotion information of Hanping County, and then began to introduce it in a number of treasures:

Hanping County is located in the southwest of the central part of Tongjiang Province, in the middle reaches of the Xinma River, with an area of 3,200 square kilometers and a population of 740,000, with 10 towns and 18 townships under its jurisdiction. The main mineral information includes coal, quartzite, feldspar, limestone, ilmenite and so on. Hydropower resources are abundant, and there are now two medium-sized hydropower stations. Food crops include rice, corn, flue-cured tobacco, etc., and industries include steel, machinery, fertilizers, cement, glass, sugar, tobacco, ......"

"You mean, you have a steel mill in your county?" Ning Mo interrupted Ma Yiping's introduction and asked him. Qin Hai has long positioned Daqin Group, that is, to closely focus on the material industry. Ning Mo was the first to follow Qin Hai to do steel production, so he was quite sensitive to the word steel.

Ma Yiping was stunned for a moment, and then some embarrassment appeared on his face: "Manager Ning...... Interested in our steel mills? ”

Ning Mo nodded and said, "Yes, our group is engaged in materials, so I am interested in steel mills." Can Chief Ma give us a detailed account of the current situation of the steel plant in Hanping County, how much is the annual output, and whether there is any intention to cooperate with foreign countries? ”

Ning Mo's idea was just to invest a sum of money in Hanping to help Xu Xinqun complete the task of attracting investment. In his opinion, if the steel plant in Hanping is willing to absorb foreign investment, he will directly invest the money in the steel plant and let the steel plant run itself, so as to save all kinds of subsequent troubles. Such an investment seems reasonable and does not raise suspicions.

Who would have thought that he would hear Ning Mo say this. Ma Yiping's face turned red all of a sudden, he said a few words, and finally kicked the ball to Xu Xinqun, and said, "Old Xu, you should explain this matter to Manager Ning." ”

Xu Xinqun nodded helplessly. whispered to Ning Mo: "Xiao Ning, this matter may be a little troublesome. The steel plant in our county was still in production a few years ago, but it has been closed in the past two years because of losses. ”

"Oh......" Ning Mo muttered in his heart: The companies that have closed their doors, you are still listed in the briefing, isn't this a matter of saving chicken feathers?

Ma Yiping saw Ning Mo's dissatisfaction, and he explained sneeringly: "Manager Ning, in fact, our county also has plans to revitalize the steel plant. However, we invited experts from the province to come and see, and they said that although there is iron ore in our county, this iron ore is mainly fertitanium, and it is not worth it purely to smelt ordinary steel. I'm afraid it can't be recovered. Therefore, the county leaders judged the situation and closed the steel plant. ”

"That's a shame. Our company has a steel business, and we could have cooperated with Hanping County. If the steel mill has been closed, forget it. Ning Mo replied casually. He wasn't interested in investing too much money in Hanping, and if the steel plant was still there, he might as well take out the money to buy a share, but now that the steel plant was closed. To resume production, and it also involves changing the steel grade, it is not 100,000 pieces that can be stopped. His original intention was to slap Xu Xinqun's ass, and it was not worth spending too much money.

Xu Xinqun saw that Ning Mo had the intention of investing, but he couldn't find a suitable project. So he cautiously asked, "Xiao Ning, apart from steel, doesn't your company do other business?" Our flue-cured tobacco here is still very famous, and the county has always regarded flue-cured tobacco as the focus of attracting investment. ”

Ning Mo shook his head and said, "Uncle Xu, our group is a material industry group, and the direction of our investment is related to materials. Flue-cured tobacco is something that we are not very familiar with, so it is unlikely that we will invest in it. ”

"Materials?" Ma Yiping asked eagerly as if grasping a straw: "Manager Ning, do you think glass is considered a material?" ”

"Glass?" Ning Mo thought for a while, "Glass should be considered a material, but it's ......"

Daqin Group has steel mills, ceramic factories, cement factories and many chemical plants that produce polymer materials, but there is no glass factory. According to Qin Hai's vision, Daqin Group's business should cover all material categories, and glass is naturally indispensable. Ning Mo knew that Qin Hai had been looking for an opportunity to enter the glass industry, but he didn't know if this small Hanping County was enough to serve as Qin Hai's entry point.

"The glass factory in our county turned out to be quite profitable." Seeing that Ning Mo's attitude was a little loose, Ma Yiping hurriedly began to flicker, "Manager Ning, our county has a natural advantage in producing glass. We have anthracite here, as well as feldspar, quartz, limestone, which are the main raw materials for the production of glass. In the early years, the glass we produced could be sold to seven or eight surrounding counties, and at that time, rural people wanted to build houses and wanted to buy the glass produced by our Hanping Glass Factory, they had to go through the back door. ”

"Yes, yes, our glass factory was a very rich unit at that time." Xu Xinqun also echoed.

Who is Ning Mo, from the words of the two people, he immediately heard the other content, he smiled slightly, and asked, "Then why is the efficiency of the glass factory not good now?" ”

"This ......" Ma Yiping was choked up all of a sudden, what he said to Xu Xinqun did reveal such a meaning, that is, the glass factory is no longer what it used to be, and what they said is the past.

"It's mainly a matter of quality." Xu Xinqun hesitated for a moment, and said it for Ma Yiping, "After all, our glaze factory is an enterprise in the county, and it is not very technically good. In recent years, everyone's living standards have been higher, and the quality requirements for glass have also been higher. For example, when building houses in our county, we are generally reluctant to use our county's own glass, and prefer to use those big brands of glass. ”

The situation faced by the Hanping Glass Factory is a common situation in the process of industrialization. In the early years, the country's industrial level was low, and products such as steel, cement, and glass were all provided by local small enterprises, and everyone had no choice but to accept it. With the advancement of the country's industrialization process, the production of various products is gradually moving towards scale, and the small enterprises in the county are completely uncompetitive due to their low technical level and poor production efficiency, and they can only go bankrupt in the end.

Hanping's earlier steel mill was closed for this reason. The situation of the Hanping glass factory is slightly better, but it has also begun to shrink, and it is only a matter of time before it goes bankrupt.

"Can I go see the glassworks?" Ning Mo asked. He knew that Hanping County could not find any other areas worth investing in, and the only one that could find an excuse for investment was this glass factory. He thought about it, as long as there was still some hope for this factory, he would take out his own money to participate in the glass factory, which could be regarded as an investment attracted by Xu Xinqun.

Hearing Ning Mo's request, Ma Yiping nodded: "It's totally okay, Manager Ning, when do you think we're going?" I immediately called them and asked them to get ready. ”

Ning Mo stood up and said, "Then now, if there is anything else that Chief Ma hasn't had time to introduce, we can talk while walking on the road." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll arrange the car right away." Ma Yiping seemed to have a spring under his feet, and ran out of the door with a jump.

Seeing Ma Yiping walking away, Xu Xinqun gently pulled the corner of Ning Mo's clothes and whispered: "Xiao Ning, let me remind you that the efficiency of our glass factory is really poor now." If your company wants to invest, there is a chance that it will be wasted, so you must be cautious. ”

Ning Mo smiled, he deeply felt that Xu Xinqun was indeed a kind person, and he also thought about problems from his standpoint. Although Xu Xinqun has a task of attracting investment, and may even lose his current position because he can't complete this task, he is still unwilling to trap the young man he met for the first time for his own affairs. As for the reason, it is naturally because Ning Mo is Xu Xiaoqi's friend.

"Uncle Xu, don't worry, I'm measured." Ning Mo said.

Xu Xinqun couldn't rest assured, he told again: "That's good." Xiao Ning, no matter what you see, don't say anything right away, even if you think you can invest, don't promise Section Chief Ma right away, wait until we discuss it, you know? ”

Ning Mo nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Uncle Xu." ”

Xu Xinqun was very satisfied with Ning Mo's attitude, he put on the posture of an elder and said: "Hehe, no wonder Xiao Ning can be in charge at such a young age, not bad." ”

Hanping Glass Factory is built in the south of Hanping County, only two miles away from the county seat, from the China Merchants Bureau, that is, three or four miles of road. However, Ma Yiping still transferred an old jeep with obvious exhaust emissions exceeding the standard, and drove Ning Mo and Xu Xinqun to the glass factory. The other two staff members of China Merchants did not squeeze into the jeep, but pedaled their bicycles. When Ning Mo and the others arrived at the gate of the glass factory, two staff members on bicycles also arrived at the same time.

"Chief Ma, why do you have time to come to our broken factory today?" Pang Zhengxiong, the director of the glass factory, who had already been notified on the phone, walked out of the factory with several subordinates and greeted Ma Yiping with a smile. Among these cadres, he also regarded Ma Yiping as a leader, and the section chief of an unpopular committee like Xu Xinqun was not worth paying attention to in Pang Zhengxiong's eyes.

"Director Pang, I'm here today with the God of Wealth." After Ma Yiping shook hands with Pang Zhengxiong, he solemnly pointed at Ning Mo and said, "Let me introduce you, this is an investor from Shannan Province, Manager Ning." You don't know yet, Manager Ning is a classmate of Section Chief Xu's daughter, and he made a special trip to our Hanping County to invest. ”

How did this come to be? Ning Mo only felt that there was hot sweat on his back. (To be continued......)
