Chapter 207: The Future of the Shipyard
readx; Longjiang Hotel is a two-star hotel located behind the Municipal Party Committee. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoUsually, the leaders of the four major teams entertain guests, in addition to often arranging them in the five-star Longjiang Hotel, some less important banquets are basically arranged in the Longjiang Hotel.
Since Ren Ran became the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, he has been living in an ordinary standard room here. In the evening, if there is no entertainment, he eats in the canteen of the municipal party committee, and occasionally he also orders noodles under the rice cooker in his room or pays for it.
Mrs. Chen Jing and daughter Ren Jie stayed in the provincial capital and did not come with him, and his life was basically taken care of by Secretary Wu. As soon as he came out of the hot shower from the bathroom, Secretary Wu Xiangnan took out his notebook and reported with a smile: "Boss, Director Li personally went to the airport to pick up Secretary Tian." He asks you to wait a moment and come directly when you receive someone. ā
Xiao Wu has been married for more than three years, but he has no children yet, the time is well arranged, and he will never go back before ten o'clock every night.
"This Lao Li, didn't he go talking together?"
Ren Ran shook his head with a wry smile, walked over and turned on the TV on the low cabinet, then sat down at the table again, and began to eat dinner, while his eyes remained on the TV screen.
Running around outside all day, often walking out of this room in the morning, and not coming back until very late, it is rare to have time to watch TV, and only when you eat for a while, it is possible to sit down and watch some news or something.
There were a few news about the meeting on the TV, which had been viewed on yesterday's computer and evening newspaper. retracted his gaze, put down his chopsticks, and politely asked Xiao Wu if he had eaten?
Xiao Wucha came out of the bathroom, holding a plastic basin in his hand, in which were the clothes that Ren Ran had just changed, and was about to go to the balcony to turn on the automatic washing machine. Listening to Ren Ran ask himself, Xiao Wu stopped his steps and said with a smile: "I have eaten in the cafeteria." ā
"Xiao Liu hasn't come back from a business trip yet?"
Xiao Liu is the wife of Secretary Wu, and seeing that the secretary cares about his family, Xiao Wu hurriedly said: "Not yet, it is estimated that I will come back at the end of this month." ā
In fact, Ren Ran was talking to Xiao Wu, but the rest of his eyes never left the TV screen. Xiao Wu smiled, and was about to turn around, when he suddenly remembered something, and continued: "Boss, Secretary Cao's secretary Zheng Bo just made a phone call. ā
A piece of news about the WTO on TV completely attracted Ren Ran's attention, so he didn't pay much attention to Xiao Wu's words, and only asked casually: "Is there anything wrong with him?" ā
"He didn't say anything, he just said that you would call him when you came back."
What can Cao Weixin do when he finds himself? Ren Ran reacted suddenly, looked at the TV absentmindedly and pondered for a moment, then grabbed the mobile phone on the coffee table and quickly dialed Cao Weixin's number.
It's not big, it's not small, but it's really about him.
Cao Weixin was entertaining a delegation led by the executive vice mayor of Jiangcheng City at the Longjiang Hotel for the application of the Yangtze River Bridge project, and since the bridge was planned in the development zone, he would like to invite him, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, who is also the secretary of the working committee of the development zone, to participate.
From a work point of view, there is indeed a need to accompany him. What's more, the executive vice mayor is a temporary cadre from the Economic and Trade Commission, and if he has one more friend and one more path, he may not have someone to ask for in the future.
But it's not appropriate to go like this, first, people are almost finished eating now, and it will give people a bad impression if they are late; Second, it is a well-known secret that he and Cao Weixin are not on good terms, and participating in a banquet where there is only one city leader Cao Weixin will inevitably give people infinite reverie.
After pondering for a while, Ren Ran still made an excuse to make arrangements for the evening and pushed away this unplanned entertainment. After watching TV for a while, the doorbell rang, and when I opened the door, I saw Li Zhiqiang and Shen Yang carrying large bags of luggage and picking up the dusty Secretary Tian.
Tian Wenjian didn't even say hello, so he sat down on the side of the bed, observing the surrounding environment, and said with a smile: "The city leader is the city leader, the spectrum is really not small, the whole call comes and goes." ā
Ren Ran was happy, sat down beside him, poured him a glass of water, and said with a smile: "Brothers belong to brothers, but there is still a clear distinction between public and private." As the deputy secretary of the Working Committee of the Development Zone, you can't even fail to comply with the leave system, right? ā
After Li Zhiqiang signaled Secretary Wu to go out, he couldn't help but echo while closing the door: "Yes, if you don't come to report, then others still don't think that your kid is traitorous to the party and the country?" ā
Tian Wenjian smiled and said: "Even if you are sentenced, you have to get enough money and then sentence, just if I am sentenced like this, what else can I do except go to Chinatown to brush dishes for people?" That's right...... I've come back from a long journey, why didn't you even have a feast? ā
"Isn't it a waste to put food on the plane?"
"Stingy!"
This war of words didn't end, so Ren Ran immediately changed the topic and asked eagerly: "Xiao Tian, you said on the phone that the vice president of this oil tanker came to investigate the matter, is it accurate?" ā
Tian Wenjian realized why they picked themselves up from the airport in a hurry, looking at their impatient looks, he had to smile bitterly and said: "Everyone, people are just here to inspect the shipyard, so don't fight those messy and crooked ideas." They are just a shipping company, and it is useless to fight. ā
"NYK's business is not just shipping, if they can invest in one or two projects in the development zone, it will play a pivotal role in the development of the development zone, after all, they are the world's top 500 companies."
Don't look at the development zone is booming, but there is no heavyweight multinational enterprise. Seeing that it is about to apply for a national economic and technological development zone, if two more decent enterprises are not invited to settle here, it will not be able to compete with sister cities.
Tian Wenjian weighed it, looked around at the three of them, and said lightly: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and people will be disgusted if it's too explicit." ā
"Don't worry, we're not going to do that kind of thing to shoot ourselves in the foot."
Ren Ran, who has rich experience in attracting investment, hurriedly said: "I just want to invite him to a meal and take him to visit our development zone by the way." Once born and twice cooked, make a friend and mix a familiar face first. ā
"Okay, I'll arrange it when he comes."
Tian Wenjian stood up, opened the suitcase, and asked solemnly, "Three, how is my business?" The ship will be in a week, and if you can't get into it by then, then the joke will be a big joke. ā
"The customs and commodity inspection have been contacted, and there should be no problem. A few days ago, the provincial environmental protection department came to the shipyard for verification, which was received by Lao Li. ā
Ren Ran glanced at his stuffed suitcase, and continued: "I also said hello to the credit union, and Lao Wang promised not to chase after your ass and ask for money." He also said that if the business is successfully completed, the credit union will give you a new Passat as a reward. ā
Without waiting for Tian Wenjian to speak, Li Zhiqiang smiled and said, "Xiao Tian, you are now a big celebrity in the credit union. A few days ago, the provincial TV station also did an exclusive interview, focusing on the new business just launched by the credit union, and you, the first person to eat crabs. ā
Thinking of the loan interest of more than one million, Tian Wenjian said angrily: "Come on!" The wool comes out of the sheep, do you think they are really that generous? ā
"It's good to be able to do that."
Ren Ran gave him a roll of his eyes, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "If you think the credit union is black, then you can try to change the bank and see if they dare to grant you a credit line of 50 million?" Let's see if they will provide bills service? ā
I have to admit that Ren Ran's words still have some truth. The big banks didn't pay attention to the shipyard at all, and it would be nice not to chase after him and ask for debts, and it would be a fool's dream to expect them to provide such a high amount of loans.
Tian Wenjian sighed secretly, took out two Marlboros from the suitcase, stuffed them into Li Zhiqiang's arms, and grinned with a big mouth: "This is what An Zituo brought to you, it's not worth a few dollars, and it's quite heavy to carry, so it's a bad deal now." ā
Thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the gift is light and righteous! What's more, An Xiaobin is still a person with identity and status. Li Zhiqiang looked at the cigarette in his hand and was stunned for a while.
Ren Ran seemed to see something, and immediately asked with a smile: "Brother, what about my share?" You don't bring me nothing, do you? ā
"Secretary Ren, you really guessed right!"
Tian Wenjian nodded heavily, with a helpless expression, and said with a wry smile: "This trip abroad is busy begging grandpa to worship grandma, I haven't gone to any attractions, I haven't bought anything, and I rushed back in a hurry after the matter was done, and I didn't dare to stay abroad for a minute." ā
"I don't think I have any money, right?" Shen Yang, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help but quip.
"There are reasons for this, but mainly because of lack of time."
"Things at home aren't that urgent."
As soon as Tian Wenjian finished speaking, Li Zhiqiang unpacked the package, scattered a few boxes by himself, and took over the conversation, and said with a smile: "We are responsible for the customs, commodity inspection, credit cooperatives and foreign trade companies." The shipyard group company did not sit idly by, after receiving your call back, they not only set up a team for you, recruited employees for you, but also took precautions to help you contact the sales channel. ā
"Oh, that's good news."
Tian Wenjian nodded slightly, and was about to say something, when Shen Yang continued: "Secretary Tian, in fact, you don't have to worry about sales at all. According to Secretary Ren's instructions, China Merchants contacted several coastal iron and steel enterprises, and they were very interested in scrap ship steel plates. As long as you can guarantee to supply 10,000 tons of scrap steel per month, then they will build factories in the development zone, cooperate with shipyards, and carry out rolling and electric furnace steelmaking projects.
The part of ship dismantling, I think it still has a future. High-quality scrap steel can be recycled through refurnace to develop high-quality steel, and can rely on shipyards to form an industrial chain for the production of various small flat steel, square steel, round steel and hardware craft products. ā
"The problem now is that there are too few wrecked ships! Xiaotian, if there is no problem in procurement, I can squeeze out 20 million funds from the district finance, focus on supporting the shipyard, and strive to build up this industrial chain, in addition to the pharmaceutical and electrical, and add an economic growth point to the development zone. ā
The three giants of the development zone are so optimistic about the shipbreaking industry that Tian Wenjian is ridiculous, and he has to say with a wry smile: "I said three, now I see that shipbreaking is indeed an industry with small investment, quick results and high profits, but this industry has a great uncertainty. Affected by the international financial crisis, the shipping industry is in a depression. Therefore, in order to reduce costs, many shipowners scrap some old ships.
The law of development of everything is a spiral and a wave-like advance, and the current financial crisis is only temporary, and the economic situation will always improve one day. At that time, shipowners will put old ships into the line to repair and put into the line, even if the scrapped ships, they may be re-disassembled and used for spare parts, which will make the shipbreaking industry form a seller's market.
If we put all our eggs in one basket and run into that situation again, the shipyard will be in a terrible situation where there are no ships to dismantle. At that time, it is not only the shipyard itself that will be affected, but a complete industrial chain. ā
In the first half of last year, when the number of shipbuilding orders surged, the domestic shipbreaking industry, which was once a big country in shipbreaking, fell to the bottom, just as Tian Wenjian just said that "there is no ship to dismantle", all shipbreaking yards are operating dismally, and some shipbreaking yards are forced to change careers or even close down.
Ren Ran is not a person who patronizes immediate interests and only knows how to make political achievements, seeing that Tian Wenjian analyzed it so thoroughly, he asked thoughtfully: "Then how do you plan for the future of the shipyard?" ā
Tian Wenjian pondered for a moment, and said lightly: "One red heart has two plans, at this stage, the ship will be dismantled first, and when all the conditions are ripe, the ship maintenance will be put on the ground." Accumulate some experience through ship dismantling and ship repair, and when you have enough funds, you can continue to build ships. ā
After thinking about it, Ren Ran said thoughtfully: "While accumulating capital and technology, we are also establishing relationships with major shipping companies. It's a good idea to turn around and avoid risks. ā
"Then the rolling and steelmaking projects are not on the line?" Shen Yang was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask.
"Come on, but control the scale."
Li Zhiqiang interjected, with a worried expression on his face, and said eagerly: "Blue Sky Technical School recruits so many people at once, if there is no ship to dismantle after dismantling the ship that was just photographed, then this impact will be great." ā
"The economic situation is improving, but it will take a long time. The scrap market will still be a buyer's market for a short period of time, and that should not be the case. ā
Tian Wenjian took a deep breath of cigarette, exhaled the light blue smoke, and continued: "The credit union granted me a credit line of 50 million, and I only used more than 20 million, not because I couldn't purchase scrap ships, but considering that we have just started to dismantle ships, if we purchase two or three ships at once, but they can't be dismantled within three months, or they can't be sold within half a year, then the gains outweigh the losses." After all, credit union loans are subject to interest, and I have to consider the financial cost. ā
The half-year interest of a loan of 50 million yuan will cost more than 4 million yuan, and if the utilization rate of funds is not high, then the shipyard will have to work for the credit union for nothing. Thinking of this, Ren Ran nodded heavily, and then asked, "Then do you have the absolute certainty that after one is dismantled, the next one can be connected?" ā
Tian Wenjian sighed lightly, knocked the ash on the side of the ashtray, and said lightly: "It's not true, but the general environment is favorable to us, as long as we go out, there will always be a way." ā
Looking at his appearance of walking on thin ice with a heavy burden on his shoulders, Li Zhiqiang couldn't help but smile and said: "Xiao Tian, you have really changed, you are like two people when you follow the army." ā
Thinking of the atmosphere of the rumors when he was infected, Ren Ran sighed and said with a wry smile: "Be cautious, I don't want to be scared again." ā
"I'd like to toss something, but does it work?"
Tian Wenjian smiled, then turned his head, stared at Ren Ran's eyes, and asked with a smile: "Secretary Ren, how does it feel to work with Mayor Cao?" ā
"What else can you do if you don't look up and don't look down? By the way, I remembered what you said, he called me just now and asked me to accompany Vice Mayor Chen from Jiangcheng with him. ā
"Chen Yongjun?"
"That's him, do you know?"
"My brother-in-law, can you not know each other?" Tian Wenjian was happy, with a triumphant expression.
This news surprised everyone, and Shen Yang was even more ecstatic and said: "So Vice Mayor Mei is in Jiangcheng, and he won't be alone?" ā
Tian Wenjian spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "He is different from Secretary Ren, he is a temporary cadre from the central ministries and commissions, and he is a person who will leave sooner or later. ā
Ren Ran would not let go of this opportunity, grabbed his arm tightly, and pretended to be angry and asked: "You kid, once you release a satellite, tell me clearly, what else do we not know?" ā
"You don't know much about it, but I can't say."
Tian Wenjian gave him a roll of his eyes, then turned around, looked pitiful, and said helplessly: "Don't forget what I used to do?" It's normal to know a few people, but there is no one in a high position, if I really have a background in Tongtian, can I still stay in Longjiang and suffer this idleness? ā
"What about Secretary Zhao of the Provincial Party Committee?" Ren Ran didn't believe him, so he asked while the iron was hot.
"With the HIV infection, do you think he can treat me differently?"
Tian Wenjian didn't want to say too deeply, so he diverted the topic and said with a half-truth: "It's pure coincidence that I can sit down with the three of you." Our fate has come to this point, and when I earn enough 20 million, I will part ways with you. You take your Yangguan Road, and I take my single-plank bridge. ā
Ren Ran and Li Zhiqiang don't think he's joking, after all, it's a well-known thing that he has no intention of career, and the reason why he still stays in Longjiang is just because he doesn't want to embarrass the leaders of Factory 315. Thinking that he had already been on the blacklist of Longjiang and even the officialdom of J Province, Ren Ran said thoughtfully: "It's okay to go, there is not much future for staying here anyway." ā
