Chapter 213: Set up your own door
Ning Mo understood the truth, Qin Hai naturally couldn't not understand. When he said that just now, he just wanted to hear Song Hongxuan's opinion. Hearing that Song Hongxuan and Ning Mo both expressed their opinions, Qin Hai said: "We used to make the relationship with Beigang very ambiguous, in fact, it was also out of the need for self-protection, after all, it was too much to separate an enterprise directly from Beigang, and Mayor Chai did not dare to take this risk." Now that our wings are stiff, it's time to talk to the city about the conditions. ”
Song Hongxuan said: "I agree with Xiao Qin's statement. As I said earlier, the city is pinching our lifeblood, but in fact, we are also pinching the lifeblood of the city. Now our special steel plant is personally taken care of by Governor Yang, if something goes wrong, the new Mayor Miao may not be able to afford it. So, this is the time for us to negotiate terms with the city. ”
"What conditions are you going to negotiate?" Qin Hai asked.
Song Hongxuan had been prepared for this question for a long time, and he said:
"We have now rented the No. 2 open-hearth workshop of Beigang and built our own electric furnace workshop, but we also use the land of Beigang. We don't have a blast furnace ourselves, but the blast furnace of Beigang smelts pig iron. In addition, we do not have an independent material yard, warehouse, or office building, which is completely attached to Beigang in form.
My idea is that we must try our best to be independent from Beigang, and all production equipment and production sites must be our own, not in the hands of Beigang. We should ask the city to allocate our current production site to us and set up a ...... Nord Stream 2 Iron and Steel Plant. As for the open-hearth workshop we rented, we will buy it directly at a discount. If possible, let's buy another blast furnace, so that our production is completely in our own hands. ”
When it comes to spending money, Song Hongxuan is full of confidence. In the past two months, the special steel plant has produced more than 20,000 tons of steel. All of them were sold out, and the total sales reached more than 40 million yuan. At that time, the planned price of ordinary low-carbon steel hot-rolled wire rod was 800 yuan per ton, and it was sold for more than 3,000 yuan per ton on the black market. In order to encourage the production of special steel mills, An Ha province has set a so-called "negotiated price" between the planned price and the black market price, allowing the special steel mills to sell at a price of 2,000 yuan per ton.
This price is 150% higher than the planned price. But the units are still flocking to it. The reason is very simple, although the planned price is good, do you have the ability to get it? The whole country is engaged in infrastructure construction, and there is a shortage of steel, and compared with the loss caused by the delay in construction, the 150% premium is nothing at all.
The raw materials used in the special steel mill include imported coal and imported iron ore, which are more expensive than the raw materials planned by the state, but even so, Song Hongxuan has been able to successfully control the production cost of each ton of steel to less than 600 yuan. The extra 1,400 yuan is equivalent to the gross profit of the special steel plant. The total annual production of 200,000 tons is not considered. Only more than 20,000 tons of steel have been produced, the special steel plant has obtained a gross profit of 30 million yuan, and how much can an open-hearth workshop be worth?
"Why didn't you think about buying all of the Nord Stream steel plants directly?" Qin Hai asked half-jokingly. Of course, he, the chairman, is also clear about the profitability of the factory, and his appetite is much greater than that of Song Hongxuan.
Song Hongxuan shook his head: "How is this possible, Beigang is a state-owned enterprise, how can it be sold?" Let's separate from Beigang and stand on our own. It's already a great thing, and there is no nod from Governor Yang. It is estimated that no one dares to agree. To be honest, Xiao Qin, if I hadn't followed you for a while, I wouldn't have dared to have such thoughts. ”
"It's not that state-owned enterprises can't be sold." Qin Hai said. However, he did not go into depth on this topic, because the issues involved were simply not what the Chinese in the 80s could imagine. He thought about it. said: "You have a good idea, can you come up with a written draft, let's talk to the people above." However, there is one thing you should pay attention to, even if it is impossible to buy the whole of Beigang right now. There is still the possibility of a full annexation of it in the future. So, you have to think about it in the light of the idea that one day the two factories will merge again. ”
Beigang is a large enterprise in Beixi City, and it can only be regarded as a medium-sized enterprise in the national steel industry. In the history of later generations, such iron and steel enterprises collapsed or were merged are not a few, if the special steel plant continues to develop according to the current trend, ten years later by the general trend of the policy to annex the current North Iron and Steel, it is very possible.
Steel is the most important material in the national economy, and it is impossible for Qin Hai to give up the steel industry. If he wants to build a huge steel group based on the current special steel plant, it will not be a problem to eat one or two enterprises like Beigang at that time.
Since he had such a thought, Qin Hai had to take precautions and make arrangements in advance. The first step, of course, is to separate the special steel plant as Song Hongxuan said, and perhaps it is more appropriate to have the name of "Nord Stream No. 2 Steel Plant". According to the general practice, after becoming independent, the special steel plant needs to establish its own set of supporting systems, such as office areas, family areas, material yards, warehouses and so on. But if it is necessary to annex Beigang in the future, then this kind of construction will be purely repeated. This is where Qin Hai reminded Song Hongxuan.
Listening to Qin Hai's words, Song Hongxuan was a little distracted. As a former member of Beigang, he understands the situation of Beigang, and also knows that if Beigang does not change anything serious, it is not impossible to be swallowed up by this special steel mill in the future. Thinking that he might become the ruler of Beigang in the future, Song Hongxuan's blood also wanted to boil.
"Whether it's possible or not, I'm going to design it this way, right?" Song Hongxuan finally nodded and said to Qin Hai.
"Next question, who are you going to talk to about this?" Qin Hai asked.
Song Hongxuan said: "If you want to talk about this matter, you must come forward, you are the person in charge of the special factory." I think so, let's go to Director Xu first, and then find the new Mayor Miao, as long as the two of them agree, we can sign an agreement with the city to make our site independent from Beigang. ”
"This Mayor Miao is the one who promoted Wei Baolin, right?" Ning Mo interjected on the side. Of course Ning Mo knew about Wei Baolin being the director of the Materials Research Institute, he was originally a person from Qingfeng Factory, how could he not understand what Wei Baolin's situation was. The new mayor Miao Yonghua was nepotistic and used such a talented Wei Baolin, which made Ning Mo have a very negative opinion of him.
"Who is Wei Baolin?" Song Hongxuan asked in surprise, and without waiting for Qin Hai and Ning Mo to answer, he added to himself: "I haven't had much contact with Mayor Miao, but I heard that he is a cadre sent from the province and is relatively open-minded. ”
"What is Xu Yang's relationship with him?" Qin Hai asked.
Song Hongxuan smiled slightly: "Isn't this conceivable?" ”
Qin Hai also smiled, this is indeed conceivable. Xu Yang is Miao Yonghua's former secretary, and the word "chai" is pasted on the door of his head. For such cadres, Miao Yonghua's attitude can only be respectful and distancing, neither immediately to clean up, nor too close, the relationship between the two sides is very delicate.
"In that case, then if we go to Miao Yonghua to talk about such a sensitive issue, will he agree immediately?" Qin Hai asked again.
Song Hongxuan frowned and said, "It's indeed a troublesome thing. If I were Miao Yonghua, I'm afraid the best choice would be to put it aside and look at it later. ”
"I think so too, so if I go directly to Miao Yonghua, I'm afraid I'll run into a gray nose." Qin Hai said.
"How about Mayor Chai say hello?" Ning Mo had a bad idea on the side.
"No way!" Song Hongxuan said categorically, "I'm afraid this will only backfire." ”
"It's a nuisance." Ning Mo didn't feel depressed because his proposal was degraded, and he muttered to himself, "It's really troublesome to change the policy if you change the leader." If you want me to say, if it really doesn't work, let's throw away all the stalls in Beixi and go to Cen Zhou to charter another factory. Didn't Qin Hai say just now, our biggest competitiveness is raw materials, and these equipment can also be rented in other places. ”
Cen Zhou is another city in An Ho province, and it was there that Chai Peide was transferred to become mayor. Considering Chai Peide's appreciation of Qin Hai, coupled with the relationship between Ning Zhongying and Chai Peide, Ning Mo felt that if the factory was moved to Cen Zhou, it would probably be more comfortable.
"It's not so easy." Song Hongxuan said, "Xiao Ning, do you think it is so easy for us to form the current production scale?" Finally, the cooperative relationship with Beigang was established, and it took time and effort to build a new one, and the workers trained here could not be brought to Cenzhou. In short, the idea of leaving Nord Stream is unrealistic. ”
"What you said, does Miao Yonghua know?" Qin Hai asked with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Song Hongxuan was stunned by Qin Hai again, he was an honest man, and his thinking sometimes couldn't keep up with Qin Hai's rhythm.
Qin Haidao: "If we threaten to leave Beixi, do you think Miao Yonghua will give in?" ”
"The idea...... It's too insidious. Song Hongxuan gritted his teeth and said,
"Hehe, soldiers don't get tired of cheating." Qin Hai said with a smile, "I bet that Miao Yonghua can't figure out our true thoughts, and besides, even if he can guess it, he can't afford it." When he first arrived, a company with a promising annual output of 200,000 tons of steel moved away, and he couldn't afford the loss of output value alone, not to mention the political influence. ”
"You can try." Song Hongxuan also figured it out. What the special steel plant is trying to do is just to separate from Beigang, and this matter can be said to be big or small, and there is actually no harm to the Nord Stream municipal government. For such a trivial matter, the special steel mill was forced to move away, and the loss was too great. Miao Yonghua is a smart person, in the face of such a choice, he must know how to choose.
"Old Song, you sort out the materials, I'll hurry up and go to Hongze." Qin Hai commanded solemnly. (To be continued......)
