The name of Wanggang and Wutan is actually not consistent with their respective topographical conditions, the origin of the name of Wutan is said to be because the whole township from north to south, there are five relatively large beaches in turn, but in fact, these beaches should be said to be called bays more appropriately, these bays through Haizhou Lingang Development Zone organized nearby villagers to clean up simply, are better ships docked, and located in the beach and land behind these bays, is an excellent place to develop coastal port industry.

In contrast, although Wanggang Township has a port character in its name on the surface, in fact, there is no bay suitable for ships to dock in the entire Wanggang Township, but there are large beaches with sediment deposits, even if it is the mouth of the Xugou River, a deep-water bay has been formed on the south side, which can be used for some ships to dock, and on the Wanggang side, it is still a beach.

The beach of Wanggang is different from the salt bay in the north, because it is the mouth of the Xugou River, the concentration of sea water is relatively light, and there is more sediment, although there is a history of boiling salt in history, but it is not like Yanwan has good natural conditions of salt pans, so the economic benefits of the industry are not high.

It is said that the reason why Wanggang cannot form a deep-water harbor for ships to dock like Wutan is related to the fact that there is a submarine separin beam on the seabed in front of the coast of Wanggang, and the storage of the submarine separin beam makes it easier to silt up sediment, and this mountain beam hidden in the depths of the seabed changes the direction of the submarine current, so that the five beaches and ruins on both sides of the mountain beam are not easy to deposit sediment, so that they can have a good bay and waterway.

According to the development plan of Haizhou area, Wanggang Township will rely on the local geomorphological characteristics to focus on the development of chemical industry, in the north side of the Xugou River, planning is a salt chemical industry base, the core of the salt chemical base is a chlor-alkali plant, mainly to produce chlorine, caustic soda and soda ash. The main products also include hydrochloric acid.

The base will build a seawall to reclaim land from the sea to form a chlor-alkali chemical industry chain from brine collection, transportation, refining to chlor-alkali production. Then, around the chlor-alkali plant, the development of downstream chlorine, alkali, hydrogen deep processing, with this as the center to continuously extend the industrial chain, the formation of upstream, midstream and downstream integration of the industrial development model.

Chlorine and alkali are very important basic chemical raw materials. These two raw materials can be used to produce a variety of chemical raw materials and products, including a variety of fine chemicals, organic products and inorganic products. At present, the development trend of the chlor-alkali industry in the world is to combine more and more closely with the petrochemical industry, and the large-scale petrochemical plants in developed countries are almost all accompanied by large-scale chlor-alkali production units, and the petrochemical plants provide ethylene, propylene, butadiene, benzene, toluene, xylene, etc.

The Wanggang Chemical Industry Park in Haizhou is also designed according to the integration of petrochemical and chlor-alkali plants, and next to the chlor-alkali industrial base, a petroleum refining base is planned. Together with the fine chemical park located on the inside, it forms the main body of Wanggang Chemical Industry Park.

In order to be able to complete the refining and chemical base in Haizhou City, in just half a year, Xue Shaohua, secretary of the Haizhou Municipal Party Committee, has made three trips to Yanjing, and has also asked people to find a lot of connections, but the results that can be achieved are not obvious. The construction of a large-scale refining and chemical base has a huge amount of investment and far-reaching impact, and is a national strategic project. The government will not take action at the local level, and China's two major oil companies each have their own petrochemical bases. If they want to build a new refining base in Haizhou from scratch, they will definitely be very cautious.

Moreover, so many cities in the country are not the only places in Haizhou that are striving for refining and chemical projects, and two barrels of oil are at most on one refining project, not only the existing refining and chemical bases want to compete to continue to expand their own scale, but at least a dozen other places are vying for it. Compared with other places, Haizhou does not have any particularly outstanding advantages, and the conditions in many places are better than Haizhou in all aspects.

Bao Feiyang originally wanted to make a joint venture between Tucker Oil Company of the United States and Xucheng Refining and Chemical Group in Jiangbei Province, or Jiangbei Petrochemical Company, and then find someone to find a way to introduce strategic investment from the Petroleum Corporation or the Petrochemical Corporation. Invest in the construction of a refining and chemical base in Haizhou Lingang Economic and Technological Development Zone. However, with the turmoil in the financial market in Southeast Asia, it has also had a certain impact on the country, so both Huaxia Petroleum Corporation and Huaxia Petrochemical Corporation are more cautious about investing in large-scale projects than before.

The most powerful local petrochemical company in Jiangbei Province is, of course, Fenghu Petrochemical Company, located in the provincial capital, but Fenghu Petrochemical Company is affiliated with Huaxia Petrochemical Corporation. The scale of the provincial Jiangbei Petrochemical is far inferior to Fenghu Petrochemical, as for the Xucheng Refining and Chemical Group, although it is the oldest in the entire Jiangbei Province, its development history can even be traced back to the beginning of liberation, but because its refining scale is very limited, the overall strength is not even as good as Jiangbei Petrochemical Company, let alone the strongest Fenghu Petrochemical Company.

Originally, the state has always been very strict in the approval of refining and chemical projects, and the two barrels of oil are also relatively close to this field, because the refining and chemical project can produce refined oil, which is a field strictly controlled by the state, if there is a large-scale refining project outside the two barrels of oil control, the refined oil produced by it may break the monopoly of the two barrels of oil on the refined oil market in the region, which is certainly what they do not want to see, especially since the Northwest Province broke the monopoly of the oil company, they are more careful in this regard.

Bao Feiyang hopes that the Tongguò chlor-alkali project will open up the situation of the chemical industry in the Lingang Economic Development Zone of Haizhou City, and compared with the petrochemical industry, which is relatively tightly controlled, the state's control over the chlor-alkali industry is relatively less strict. However, there is also a problem at present, that is, the overcapacity of the chlor-alkali industry in the current development situation in China, especially the oversupply of the caustic soda market, so in order to avoid blind and duplicate construction and waste of existing resources and financial resources, the state has also strictly controlled the launch of large-scale chlor-alkali projects.

In addition, in the case of the integration of chlor-alkali industry and petrochemical industry is becoming more and more obvious, the state is also promoting the combination of chlor-alkali plant and petrochemical plant, if Haizhou only has chlor-alkali project, it is difficult to get approval in principle.

Although it is very difficult to start these projects, Bao Feiyang has not been afraid to stop the work at hand, and a series of related preparations have been carried out in an orderly manner. This time, the person who came to Haizhou Development Zone for inspection was the representative of Taihu United Chemical Group.

United Chemical Group is very famous in Taihu, is one of the largest chemical enterprises in Taihu, the main business includes plastic raw materials, plastic processing products, fiber products, special chemicals, the enterprise after years of continuous good development is now a huge scale, in Taihu, Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States have investment.

Bao Feiyang is a relationship between the Zhang family of Tongguò Taihu. Contacted by United Chemical Group. Hongda Group's own business scope is mainly concentrated in the electronics industry, but it is also a huge enterprise group in Taihu, although the business scope is different, but there will be some contacts in the business circle of Taihu, and the relationship between the Zhang family and the Wang family of United Chemical Group has always been better. Although Zhang Hongxiang was not able to come in person because Hongda Group still had some things to deal with in Southeast Asia recently, he also arranged for some people he trusted and capable to form an inspection team to come to Haizhou with the inspectors of the United Chemical Group.

"Hello, Director Bao. Mr. Zhang, he asked me to say hello to you on his behalf, Mr. Zhang originally planned to come in person, but there are some things that need to be dealt with in Southeast Asia recently, so I can't come this time, and I feel very sorry that I can't meet with Director Bao in person. As soon as Fan Wenhua, the leader of the Hongda Group's inspection personnel and deputy general manager of the investment department of Hongda Group, met him, he smiled and said to Bao Feiyang, as a senior manager of Hongda Group and Zhang Hongxiang's henchmen, obviously he had also heard that Zhang Hongxiang was cured by Bao Feiyang's help last time he suddenly fell ill in the mainland. knows Zhang Hongxiang's attitude towards Bao Feiyang, so he has to be very polite and respectful to Bao Feiyang.

"Hello Mr. Fan. Welcome to Haizhou. Bao Feiyang smiled quickly and shook hands with Fan Wenhua warmly and said: "This time Mr. Zhang was not able to come, I also feel very sorry, since the last time Mr. Zhang returned to Taihu from the mainland, we have not seen each other for a while, I hope to have time to find a suitable opportunity to catch up with him as soon as possible." Speaking of which, I always know Zhang, so you don't have to be polite, Mr. Fan. Don't call me Director Bao, just call me Feiyang. ”

What surprised Bao Feiyang was that among the inspectors sent by the United Chemical Group this time, the leader was actually a lady who looked only about 30 years old and had a graceful demeanor, and he did not mean to look down on women. However, there are still the majority of men among the executives of large enterprises in Taihu, and it is indeed rare for such a heavy inspection project to be led by a woman, and she is still so young.

"Feiyang, this is Minister Yu Liqiong of the International Department of United Chemical Group Group, don't you look at Minister Yu so young and beautiful, she is a well-known doctor from California Polytechnic University in the United States, both comprehensive ability and professional knowledge are very strong, and she is a member of Lianhua Joint Workers." Fan Wenhua smiled and introduced Bao Feiyang.

It is difficult for Bao Feiyang to associate the woman in front of her with a delicate face, curly hair, and a mature feminine charm all over her body with a female doctor and the backbone of a chemical company, such a beautiful young lady should be loved and cherished well, enjoy life, and it seems that the place where she should appear is a celebrity or star shining in a beauty salon or a certain banquet, rather than a fierce general who charges in the shopping mall, which is too incompatible with her delicate appearance. However, these thoughts were only fleeting, and he still stretched out his palm to Yu Liqiong very politely: "Minister Yu, hello, welcome to Haizhou." To be honest, if I hadn't heard what Mr. Fan introduced just now, I would have thought you were a big star in Hong Kong and Taiwan. ”

Yu Liqiong's fingers touched Bao Feiyang politely, and quickly retracted, hearing Bao Feiyang's compliment, she nodded lightly with a faint expression, brushed the curly hair that fell on her forehead when the wind blew just now, and said to Bao Feiyang: "Hello, this joke is not funny." ”

Bao Feiyang didn't expect that his well-intentioned joke would get such an indifferent response, and he didn't know what to say for a while when he was blocked by Yu Liqiong's words, so he couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Fan Wenhua who was standing next to him, only to see Fan Wenhua smiled a little embarrassedly, and shrugged his shoulders at Bao Feiyang, obviously he already knew Yu Liqiong's personality, but he was not surprised.

It seems that although this beautiful executive is very beautiful, she is not easy to approach, and she has the taste of an iceberg beauty, I don't know if it will hinder her future work.

Fortunately, the other people brought by Yu Liqiong are relatively normal, including the assistant next to her, a beautiful girl who looks less than thirty years old, although her appearance and temperament are slightly inferior to Yu Liqiong, but her personality is lively and her voice is crisp, she often smiles when she speaks, and when she smiles, there are faint dimples on her face, and her speech and demeanor look much kinder than that of Yu Liqiong, who is cold.

Fan Wenhua and Yu Liqiong visited a group of 12 people, of which Fan Wenhua led the Hongda Group with seven people, and in the United Chemical Group, Yu Liqiong only brought three people in addition to her assistants, including a legal expert and two chemical experts.

Fan Wenhua came this time for two purposes, one is that Hongda Group intends to invest in an electronic product manufacturing project in Haizhou Lingang Development Zone; In addition, if after this detailed inspection, the United Chemical Group recognizes the conditions of Lingang, they will also contribute capital to participate in the project of the United Chemical Group in the Haizhou area.

As Fan Wenhua mentioned when he first met, the recent shape of Southeast Asia is very bad, many enterprises investing in Southeast Asia have been affected, with the loss of the Thai currency, the exchange rate of the Thai currency has also plummeted, and the currencies of other countries in Southeast Asia have also fallen endlessly, including the Taiguo, Indonesia, Malaysia and other countries, there has been inflation, business closures and a large number of workers have lost their jobs, and now all enterprises that have invested in Southeast Asia are very nervous.

Taihu's Hongda Group and United Chemical Group have invested in Southeast Asia, although before the crisis, Bao Feiyang had issued an early warning to them through channels such as Guò Fangyuan Tianxia Information Consulting Company, especially the Taihu Hongda Group, Indonesia Sinar Mas Group, etc., which have a close personal relationship with him, and he also personally contacted his core figures to remind them, but at that time, everyone could not be sure when the crisis would break out, and second, industrial transfer was not an overnight thing, and this work was complicatedThere are a lot of things that businesses need to prepare and sort out.

After receiving the early warning put forward by Bao Feiyang, including the Taihu Hongda Group, they have appropriately increased the arbitrage and hedging in the futures market to resist the possible crisis, so even if the currencies of Southeast Asian countries have dived one after another, the loss of the Hongda Group is not large. However, the collapse of the economy of Southeast Asian countries has produced a series of domino-like chain reactions, leading to a backlog of products that cannot be sold, and the factories invested by Hongda Group can only temporarily close for business, so although they have been prepared in advance, Hongda Group still has to bear a lot of losses.

And now this trend has become more and more obvious, several major countries in Southeast Asia have been hit by the financial crisis, and the fruits of economic development that have been hard to achieve for decades have been in vain, and after this economic crisis, economic recovery also needs a process. In contrast, the development of China is relatively stable, with a vast land area and a huge population, and the domestic market is very large, so it is not affected by the impact of other countries in the outside world. After this economic crisis in Southeast Asia, Zhang Hongxiang and others also realized that investing in the mainland is a good choice for their enterprises, and they did not plan to invest in Haizhou out of the mentality of repaying Bao Feiyang's gratitude as before.

It is precisely because of the great development prospects, so Taihu Hongda Group this time the investment willingness is very strong, of course, in the end whether it really wants to invest, but also depends on the situation after the inspection of Haizhou, especially the chemical project, and finally depends on the attitude of the United Chemical Group, after all, they are more professional in the chemical field.
