Liu Fatzi talked to Jin Xiaoqiang about ethanol gasoline again, and Jin Xiaoqiang immediately remembered the domestic ethanol gasoline boom in recent years.

Indeed, the current use of ethanol gasoline in the world is more extensive than methanol gasoline, and the use of methanol gasoline in the United States and Japan is relatively large in the world.

These two countries are also using ethanol gasoline, but the amount of ethanol gasoline is indeed not as large as methanol gasoline, after all, although ethanol gasoline is a pure natural renewable plant, but after all, there is a problem of competing for food, so within these two countries, the controversy has always been relatively large.

The countries that currently use the most ethanol gasoline in the world are, of course, Brazil and Thailand, both of which are located in tropical regions and rich in natural resources.

And because of the natural geographical environment, they are all large sugarcane-producing countries, and the price and cost of all refined ethanol gasoline are very low for them, so ethanol gasoline has been popularized in these two countries.

But in some high-latitude countries where the farming environment is not too good, the prospect of methanol gasoline is better.

Although ethanol gasoline has the advantage of being renewable, it consumes food and has a shelf life, which is the biggest disadvantage of this new blend.

The biggest disadvantage of methanol gasoline is that methanol is toxic and corrosive, but if the ratio is good, do a good job of sealing and no contact, these shortcomings can still be overcome.

Moreover, the main source of methanol is some low-quality coal, which will not have high heat even if it is used to heat the furnace, and it is also facing the danger of collapsing the furnace.

But if it is used to refine methanol. That's the safest and most efficient way to use waste, and so bad every day in the Midwest of the Celestial Empire. But there are many, too many.

It is definitely an energy-saving and environmentally friendly waste utilization model. Moreover, methanol can also come from the coke oven exhaust gas of many iron and steel smelting enterprises, if such waste gas is emitted into the atmosphere, it will only cause serious air pollution, and if it is used to refine methanol, it is the most suitable recycling.

And methanol because of the large production. Although it is widely used in industry, there is still a lot of surplus production in the country every year. Therefore, the market price is much lower than that of fuels such as oil.

Therefore, if it is used to make methanol gasoline, it will undoubtedly greatly reduce the cost of fuel, and there will be no shelf life problem like ethanol gasoline.

So in the United States and Japan now. Methanol gasoline. and methanol diesel, which has become the standard fuel for many long-distance buses or long-distance transportation companies, and the price is much lower than that of ordinary gasoline and diesel.

However, at present, the domestic petroleum and petrochemical system has not paid attention to the advantages of methanol gasoline, after all, the most popular international hype in the past two years is the concept of ethanol gasoline.

In order to catch up with international trends. China is planning to build a lot of ethanol gasoline factories in Dongshan Province and Qingyuan Province, two major agricultural provinces. Celestial Petroleum, as well as Celestial Petrochemical, are building a large number of ethanol gasoline refining plants.

As for the comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of ethanol gasoline and methanol gasoline, it was also instilled by Jin Xiaoqiang to Liu Kang, and then asked him to tell him to the two elders who served as high-ranking officials in Tianchao Petroleum and Tianchao Petrochemical.

Because Jin Xiaoqiang knows that within such a giant monopoly, disputes will be continuous, and some people advocate ethanol gasoline, then there will definitely be people who oppose it, but if you oppose it, then you must come up with a suitable alternative.

And the success of that substitute means that the person who proposes the promotion of successful products will rise to the top in the future, so Jin Xiaoqiang believes that Liu Kang's two elders will make their own judgments. …,

And the reason why he did this was to sell a benefit to Liu Kang's two elders, and secondly, he hoped that they would be able to provide him with corresponding support after receiving the benefits!

In recent years, the domestic economic development has been rapid, and whenever it comes to the peak production period of various types of factories across the country in the past few months, the domestic gasoline and diesel supply will face a tight situation.

Many economically developed areas in the south will face power rationing to control the shortage of power supply, and in provinces like Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and eastern Guangdong, there have been oil shortages more than once.

Therefore, in the past two years, the country is trying to change the current tight supply of gasoline and diesel fuel in China, and the first way to think of is undoubtedly to learn from Brazil and Thailand to use ethanol gasoline to expand domestic supply.

However, the reason why Brazil and Thailand can refine a large amount of ethanol and produce ethanol gasoline is because many countries are located in tropical areas, rich in tropical plants such as sugarcane, and among all cash crops, sugarcane is undoubtedly the cash crop with the highest ethanol extraction ratio.

However, in China, we do not have such conditions, so we can only retreat to the next best thing and choose another cash crop with a relatively high ethanol refining ratio.

And this cash crop is corn, in the north, especially in the three eastern provinces, as well as Dongshan Province, these provinces are all large corn planting provinces.

However, with the improvement of people's living standards, corn is no longer the main food of people's life, and the main use of this crop is to be made into various kinds of feed, among which pig feed is the most extensive.

However, with the stability of domestic pork prices in the Celestial Empire in recent years, the price of pig feed is not high, so the annual purchase price of corn in the northern region is not high.

Therefore, the Celestial Empire Petroleum and Petrochemical put the idea on the head of corn, and built ethanol gasoline refining and processing plants in the two economically developed provinces in the north, intending to increase the price every year to buy corn from farmers and use it to extract ethanol to make ethanol gasoline.

In recent years, with the acceleration of the pace of construction, many factories have been completed, and in Qingyuan Province and some Tianchao Petroleum and Tianchao Petrochemical gas stations in Dongshan Province, ethanol gasoline has begun to be sold.

But Jin Xiaoqiang, as a person who has come over, knows that the consequence of this is that in two years, the Celestial Empire will usher in the biggest inflation, and the main culprit of this inflation is the rise in pork prices.

Because corn has been sold by oil and petrochemicals, and the price has risen, resulting in many pig feed production and processing enterprises, can not buy corn, and finally led to a few rises in pig feed, the people because of the rise in pig feed, so they are no longer willing to raise pigs, which leads to insufficient supply in the pork market, coupled with some people's speculation, and finally from the middle of next year, the pork market price of the Celestial Empire will gradually increase, until the beginning of 08 years, this trend is the first to ease.

And it is precisely this pork crisis that has caused public resentment and boiling, so that the domestic senior leaders realize the harm of ethanol gasoline to the domestic economy, so many ethanol gasoline refining plants that are still under construction have been stopped, and many of the ones that have been built will face the fate of gradually reducing production or even closing down.

At the same time, the rising international crude oil prices are constantly injecting water into the economic growth of the Celestial Empire, which has led to the fact that after a few years, domestic prices remain high, but the exchange rate of the national currency against the US dollar is also a high inflationary situation.

As the owner of an automobile company, Jin Xiaoqiang does not need to care about such a national event, but as a qualified business leader, you must have a very keen political sense and seek the greatest interests for your own business from political trends and adjustments. …,

It is really because of the experience of two lives that Jin Xiaoqiang thought of quietly advocating the concept of methanol gasoline when ethanol gasoline was about to rise in China.

In the future, the development of the domestic automobile industry will be mainly reflected in the low-end model of compact models, especially after the financial crisis of 08 years, the competition in the domestic compact car market will become particularly fierce.

Especially after the state launched a series of inducement policies, at that time, even the German, Japanese and American systems, which had always looked down on this market, turned around and launched new cars to enter this market to grab food.

Therefore, Huayang Power does not pay attention to this market now, which does not mean that it will also pay attention to this market in the future, in Jin Xiaoqiang's future market division concept.

Hybrids will definitely become the mainstream of the mid-to-high-end car market, although it will be a long time before the general trend is inevitable.

But the price of hybrid cars at the beginning of the market will definitely not be very cheap, after all, those oil trusts can't be rushed, so there are many low-end consumers who will not be covered.

So how does this low-end market compete with those international giants and joint ventures?

In the low-end compact model market, in order to control the cost, we must be half a pound or two in the design of the power and appearance of the model and the internal pattern, even if he Jin Xiaoqiang has a golden finger against the sky, but there is no guarantee that Huayang Power will cause a strong suppression of other enterprises.

Therefore, in Jin Xiaoqiang's view, it is necessary to find another way and make a fuss about the price of fuel, because Jin Xiaoqiang knows that consumers in the Celestial Empire have always been very sensitive to prices.

Especially for those consumers whose family funds are only enough to buy a low-end compact family car, if they can buy a model that can be used at a very low cost in the later stage, they will definitely buy such a model without hesitation.

If these consumers can be grasped, then Huayang Power will take the lead in the upcoming tragic low-end car price war in the future.

And not only can they make money on buying cars, but also in terms of the supply of methanol gasoline, they can also make money if they Huayang Power participates in the shares.
