Bisphenol A?

For this, Nie Zhenbang is a complete layman, whether it is in his previous life or in this life. For this kind of chemical industry, Nie Zhenbang is not very clear.

However, Nie Zhenbang has a slight impression of this term, remembering that in his previous life, he heard that this prohibition was used in milk bottles.

Look at the man with glasses in front of him. Nie Zhenbang smiled and said: "This comrade, what position do you hold in the Red Star Factory, can you give me a detailed explanation, this bisphenol A?" What are the prospects of this chemical product in the country and in the world? ”

The governor asked for his name. As soon as Nie Zhenbang's words fell, many people in the Red Star Factory showed envy on their faces, if they behave well and let the governor take a fancy to them, they will have a worry-free future in this life.

Next to him, Liu Zhenxiang, the director of the Red Star Factory, also spoke: "Governor, Comrade Li Weihong, a doctoral student who graduated from Huazhong University majoring in chemical engineering. It is the chief engineer of our Red Star factory. ”

This also made Nie Zhenbang a little surprised, there are still such high-achieving students in the Red Star Factory, why can't they do a good job in production. However, seeing the leadership team of the Red Star Factory next to him, Nie Zhenbang also understood a little. The so-called soldier bears a nest of bears. Liu Zhenxiang, the director of this Red Star Factory, is a good person. Can it be capable? It's hard to compliment. This kind of person is in a factory with good efficiency. If you don't worry about sales, you are a good leader, but in the Red Star Factory, in this situation, you lack the ability to turn the tide.

Immediately, he looked at Li Weihong and said, "Comrade Wei Hong, you give me a science popularization, what is this bisphenol A used for, and how is it marketed?" ”

Li Weihong nodded, this person has a common problem with scholars, and he is not very good at dealing with people, but when it comes to professionalism, he can talk about it eloquently.

"Governor, bisphenol A is an important organic chemical raw material, an important derivative of phenol and acetone, mainly used in the production of polycarbonate, epoxy resin, polysulfone resin, polyphenylene ether resin, unsaturated polyester resin and other polymer materials. It can also be used in the production of plasticizers, flame retardants, antioxidants, heat stabilizers, rubber antioxidants, pesticides, coatings and other fine chemical products. When Li Weihong talks about professional knowledge, he is talking about it.

After a pause, Li Weihong continued: "The existing equipment of our Red Star Factory is capable of producing phenol and acetone. It's just that in terms of production technology, compared with world-class chemical companies. There is a big gap, and the production cost is slightly expensive. Basically, at the current market price, we are going to lose money. But. If you can introduce equipment. Improve the process. Not to mention surpassing the world's equivalent companies, it is still possible to reach this level. ”

Speaking of introducing equipment, all of a sudden, the conference room immediately fell silent, and everyone present knew it, especially the leaders of Tianfu City. Red Star Factory has said so for so many years, every year. 200 million yuan was invested, but the effect was not much. Now, when it comes to the introduction of equipment, it really feels like a pot is not opened.

Li Weihong also seemed to know that she had said the wrong thing. A little embarrassed, the person also looked a little restrained and said: "Governor, as for the market, I don't know very well. ”

This sentence made Nie Zhenbang overwhelmed. Now, I finally feel my pulse. Red Star Factory has such a leader and such a chief engineer, so it's no wonder that it doesn't lose money. Any enterprise can not ignore the market, and the market derailed, the product has no market, there is only a loss, it is obvious that this Li Weihong is a book who only understands technology and does not understand the market.

It was Liu Liangang next to him, but at the moment he wanted to speak and stopped, but this scene was seen by Nie Zhenbang, and then said: "Comrade Liu Liangang, you seem to have something to say?" ”

Hearing Nie Zhenbang's order, Liu Liangang also nodded and said, "Governor, I know something." Bisphenol A is mainly used in the epoxy resin industry. There is a lot of demand in the country. Most of it comes from imports. In addition, phenol acetone is actually in high demand. Merely. The process of our factory is not in place. Production is a loss. That's why we gave up this aspect of production. ”

Hearing this, Nie Zhenbang also understood a little, Nie Zhenbang did not understand the professional and technical knowledge of industry, or in other words, Nie Zhenbang did not need to learn. However, Nie Zhenbang has figured out the economic relationship in this.

Now, the situation of the Red Star Factory is that all these years of fighting. The production equipment and technology of the Red Star Factory have been improved a lot, and it can also produce products that are in demand in the market. However, because the technology or process is not up to standard. The cost is high, and the world's mainstream products, and the price does not match.

Let's take an analogy. All produce a piece of cloth. Others through advanced technology, the production of a piece of cloth may only cost a hundred yuan, and sell it, sell it for two hundred, which is profitable. However, the Red Star Factory needs more than 200 costs to produce a piece of cloth. The quality is all the same. If you sell three hundred, no one will want it. If you sell it for two hundred, you will lose money. The more you produce, the more you lose.

The key here is technology. If the technology and equipment are upgraded. The products of the Red Star Factory can fill the gap in China. It's still promising. However, the key here is money.

Now, this Mitsui company probably also values this, so it dares to open its mouth so much. According to Mitsui's attitude, Nie Zhenbang estimates that even if it needs to continue to invest, there will not be too much capital. If there are too many, Mitsui might as well build a new plant, and there is no need to go through such trouble to acquire.

Thinking of this, Nie Zhenbang said: "The general secretary has always emphasized. Science and technology are the primary productive forces. That's right. From the issue of the Red Star Plant. I saw a microcosm. Domestic. Many enterprises lose money, not because the employees are not diligent, but the most important constraint is technology. Li Gong. I consulted with the existing equipment conditions of the Red Star plant. You estimate how much money is needed and how much equipment is introduced. in order to reach the level of the same industry. Don't talk about the production of bisphenol A, let's talk about the production of phenol acetone. ”

Nie Zhenbang's voice fell, but next to him, Tang Bingquan leaned over and said in a low voice: "Governor, the current situation in Tianfu City." It is also very difficult, although the income of the city treasury is much. However, the stalls in Tianfu City are also large, and many enterprises need money and infrastructure construction. Education, medical care, civil affairs and other aspects should be invested. The Red Star Factory is really unsustainable. ”

Regarding Tang Bingquan's words, Nie Zhenbang can also understand. From the perspective of Tianfu City, so much has been invested in this mess on the side of the Red Star Factory. The bank loans are guaranteed by the Tianfu Municipal Government. Tianfu City is not the only factory in Hongxing Factory. Monks have more meat and less meat. The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, and you can't blindly favor the Red Star Factory, in that case, there will be a big mess.

Immediately, Nie Zhenbang also smiled and said, "Comrade Bingquan, don't be impatient. Let's listen to what Comrade Li Weihong has to say. ”

At this moment, Li Weihong probably also calculated it in his heart, and after a while, he nodded and said: "Governor, if you want to reach the international standard, on the existing basis, you must invest at least 100 million yuan in technological transformation funds." That's the case. I am confident that the Hongxing plant can be built to an annual output of 50,000 tons of resorcinol. ”

"How much is the current price of resorcinol equivalent to a ton?" Nie Zhenbang always cares about the economic ledger.

This time, Li Weihong understood, and replied: "The current market price of resorcinol is 41,000 tons. After the technological transformation, the cost of production, including workers' wages, is about 28,000. The profit of one ton is between ten thousand. ”

Nie Zhenbang also pondered at this moment, earning 10,000 yuan per ton, and if he earns 10,000 tons, the annual profit is 100 million. In other words, the Red Star Factory can turn losses into profits in one year.

Of course, this is only an estimate on paper. Really get it done. It's also hard to say. In any enterprise, not only technology can solve the problem, but also the leadership of the enterprise team, the establishment and ability of the company's sales channels, these are very important factors. It is also possible that after investing money, the products produced cannot be sold, or they cannot be sold back after being sold.

If you want the Phoenix Nirvana of the Red Star Factory to regain its life, it is not only the investment in technical transformation, but also the team of the Red Star Factory to be replaced. The shareholding system of enterprises should also be restructured, and only by turning the Hongxing Factory into a collective joint-stock system can the workers be motivated. Only then can the team be cohesive. Of course, Nie Zhenbang also believes that Tianfu City can do a good job in these things.

Is it a priority now? It is to veto Mitsui's purchase. Thinking of this, Nie Zhenbang made a decision and said, "Comrade Bingquan, Comrade Jianzhang." In my opinion, this Red Star Factory still has a lot of potential. The existing land of the Red Star Factory is a resource in itself. In my opinion, it is led by the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. Guaranteed by the provincial government. 100 million yuan was allocated from the provincial treasury. In the name of the provincial SASAC participation. Jointly with the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the Hongxing Factory was restructured into a joint-stock system. will be the current total assets of the Red Star plant. The total liabilities are all combined. Mobilize employees to subscribe for shares. Red Star Chemical Co., Ltd. was established. The company's leadership team adopts the method of employee public election, I believe. Since there is no problem with the product, the future of the Red Star Factory will definitely not be a problem. ”

After a pause, Nie Zhenbang said in a decisive manner: "In addition, I see that Tianfu City can notify Dongying Mitsui Company." Termination of negotiations. ”

As soon as Nie Zhenbang's words fell, the door of the conference room was pushed open from the outside, and at the gate, several Dongying people stood at the door with unhappy faces. There was arrogance in his eyes. He said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, Governor." I am saddened by the ignorant decision of you Chinese people. With your technology, working with us, this is the only way out. Otherwise, you will be left to a dead end. ”
