Wu Tian said that rare earths affect the national economy and people's livelihood, which is not an exaggeration.

Rare earth element oxides refer to 15 lanthanide oxides with atomic numbers from 57 to 71 in the periodic table, and oxides of 17 elements with similar chemical properties to lanthanides and yttrium. With the progress of science and technology and the continuous breakthrough of application technology, rare earth elements have been widely used in petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, textile, ceramics, glass, permanent magnet materials and other fields, and the value of rare earth oxides will be greater and greater, with the reputation of "industrial vitamins", is an extremely important strategic resource.

From the late 80s and early 90s, domestic rare earth resources have been mined in large quantities and exported in large quantities, and the domestic rare earth industry has many firsts in the world: the first resource reserves, accounting for about 70%; No. 1 in terms of output, accounting for 80% to 90% of the world's rare earth commodity volume; 60% to 70% of rare earth products are exported to foreign countries......

But China, which lives alone in so many conditions, does not have the pricing power of rare earths, and rare earths eventually fell to the price of cabbage!

On the one hand, this is because of the increasing scale of domestic rare earth mining, uncontrolled mining and export, coupled with the country's export tax rebate policy, from 1990 to 2005, China's rare earth exports increased nearly 10 times, but the average price was depressed to 64% of the original price. In the case of geometric demand for high-tech electronics, lasers, communications, superconductivity and other materials in the world, China's rare earth prices have not risen.

On the other hand, uncontrolled mining and exporting make rare earth reserves in other countries not a problem, such as Xiaoqiaozi, a small island country that does not produce rare earths, and this electronics industry is developed. Countries that need large amounts of rare earth resources. But it has enough rare earth resources to be used for three hundred years! In this case. They can buy a large number of rare earths when the price of rare earths is low for domestic exports, and use reserves instead of purchasing when the price is high, and the rare earth manufacturers who are fighting for each other in China can only maintain a profit margin of one to five percent in addition to the mining cost in order to sell the goods - which is equivalent to the mineral resources are almost free of charge!

After 20 years of mining, the country finally realized the severity of the problem and began to limit the export quota of rare earths, but on the one hand, those black-hearted empires have already stockpiled a lot of resources. On the other hand, people have also moved out of various trade agreements to exert pressure on the country, and they will not give up if they do not hollow out the domestic rare earths!

In addition, rare earth mining is not a "green industry". Although the appropriate amount of rare earth elements has a wide range of promoting effects on plant growth, it has a regulating effect on animal body functions and inhibiting tumors on the human body. In the application of agriculture, rare earths play a multiple role in increasing yield, improving quality and improving the disease resistance of crops. However, if you consume too much, it may cause abnormalities in central nervous system indicators.

The biggest problem is in the process of refining, ten or twenty years later, how many "cancer villages" have broken out in China, and how many various strange disease villages have broken out. A large part of it is related to rare earth mining and refining, and those unscrupulous mining manufacturers. The problem of barbaric mining, barbaric refining and leading to zhì, is as strict as the pollution caused by the chemical industry!

Of course, Wu Tian does not want this situation to continue to repeat in this life, and if he has the opportunity, he naturally hopes that he will not waste this sharp weapon that can affect the country's prosperity and strength......

"Do you know Moore's Law?" "Moore's Law means that the number of transistors that can fit on an IC will double every 18 months, and the performance will also double. This means that in the future, the performance of the computer will be greatly developed, the electronics industry will become more and more prosperous, maybe it will not be many years, the Chinese people have a computer, a person and a mobile phone can be easily realized, and the future will enter the electronic age! ”

"What does the digital age mean? That means that the demand for rare earths, an essential element in the electronics industry, will skyrocket. Wu Tian said, "Rare earths, but strategic resources, let's not say that they can't be mined or exported, at least this piece should be mined and exported under controllable conditions, so as to ensure that enough benefits are obtained, and this strategic resource will not be lost cheaply......."

After listening to Wu Tian's words, Chu Ninghe nodded, and said, "Well, your mention is not bad, after I go back, I will discuss it with Elder Fang, Mr. Hong, and your Uncle Liu......

Wu Tian smiled and said, "Grandpa, this project is not only about controlling resources, in addition, if you do it well, this is also a big project with money, I believe that Mr. Hong should be interested." ”

"What do you mean? Hong Lao always cares about money or not? Chu Ninghe glared.

"I didn't say that Mr. Hong wants to put money in his pocket." Wu Tian grinned, "I'm talking about Zhong. The central government is overstretched, in order to make some money, Mr. Hong has played a lot of tax reform, and the rare earth central enterprises have done a good job, Mr. Hong must be happy, hehe......"

Chu Ninghe couldn't help but smile, the tax reform, or the implementation of the tax sharing system, was indeed forced by Mr. Hong, so that in a hurry, this reform was not perfect.

From the late 1980s to the early 1990s, there were even two cases of the central government "borrowing" money from local governments and failing to repay it. In order to persuade the provinces, Zhu Rongji spent more than two months traveling throughout the country to persuade them one by one, during which there were quite a lot of see-saw and compromises, but the general principle of implementing the reform of the unified national tax-sharing system has never wavered. Finally on the third of November. Zhongquan. Will be full. 体会, 顺lì通guò《About Building. Founding. Lord. Yi Market Classic. Ji Ti. A number of questions. The decision of the question" finally passed the guò tax system. The relationship between the central and local governments has been straightened out.

According to the previous conversation with Wu Tian on the phone. This time, the tax-sharing system was implemented. Although it can be solved in a certain course. However, the financial difficulties of the central government have inevitably caused financial difficulties in some localities, and there are gains and losses, but it is an inevitable trend for the country to be rich and the people to be poor......

Secretary Wu is missing.

For the Chinese New Year, except for the first day of the Lunar New Year, Secretary Wu took his son and daughter in the province. The Standing Committee of the CPC Committee and the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee went around and paid their respects to the important leaders and colleagues. The door of Building No. 9 of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee was locked, and no one was seen.

Poor city, district, and even some leaders in the city who take advantage of the New Year to worship the mountain, know that Secretary Wu does not accept gifts is a little better, although the New Year is not empty-handed, but there are not many things, and they are not tired to turn around and go back.

However, for those who are particularly close, it is not that Secretary Wu cannot be found.

For example, Zhao Jiacai. dared to call Wu Jianguo directly to inquire about his whereabouts, and immediately drove to the forest park villa area.

"Little God. You've done a great job! ”

As soon as the Zhao family entered the door, after visiting the old man of Chu Ninghe and the old leader Wu Jianguo, he immediately went straight to Wu Tianxing's master to ask for the guilt.

"Uncle Zhao, why did I mess with you during the Chinese New Year?" Wu Tian smiled innocently and bitterly.

"The winery is in a mess, dare you say you don't know?" Zhao Jiacai shouted angrily.

Wu Tian laughed, of course he knew about the winery. If you want to say that this incident happened the day before yesterday, that is, on the 28th of the lunar month, the workers of the two factories made a commotion, but the reason was the problem of wage payment.

It is said that after the merger of the two distilleries and Dahe Distillery, the first decision made by the management team mainly formed by Dahe Distillery was to announce that the treatment of workers in the two Dukang Distilleries in the future will be raised to the same level as Dahe Distillery, and the Dahe Dukang Group, which has just been established for more than half a month, has issued a lot of sons and bonuses in January compared with the past, and the workers in the factory are quite satisfied - this year is finally a fat year.

But I didn't want to, just a few days later, suddenly news came out in the factory, but it was said that the wages of the workers on the side of the Dahe Distillery were about 100 yuan higher than the two factories here, and suddenly the workers in the factory were not satisfied, and began to make noise, seeing that Chinese New Year's Eve was over, but they did not even do the New Year's goods, and spontaneously organized themselves, blocked the factory gate and the temporary office location of the Dahe Dukang Group in Zhongdu, and asked to cancel the merger!

This is a threat from Chiguoguo, you must know that if the joint venture is really dissolved, it means that they will not be able to get such a high salary as they are now, which is also for the next step of bargaining, as long as it is raised to the same treatment as the workers of Dahe Distillery.

But the problem is that Dahe Distillery is also aggrieved in this matter, and the wages paid by the group's top management are indeed the same for the three factories!

So, after the office took out the salary bill, the workers in the factory realized that the problem was not on the other side of the river, but in the factory! It was the factory leader who intercepted the money!

You must know that after all, the three factories have just reached a joint venture, and the management of the factories has not been completely unified, but the temporary senior management team has coordinated the unified operation of the three factories.

This salary payment is directly allocated by the group to the factory, issued by the original financial department, there is a retainment, naturally it is a problem in the factory, not to say that the angry workers, the spearhead is re-aimed at the leadership of the original factory......

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************

"Tell me, did you make up this matter?" Zhao Jiacai asked Wu Tian with an unhappy face.

"Uncle Zhao, it's a big New Year. Don't be angry. Wu Tian said with a hippie smile. Besides. Even if you're angry, you have to find the right person, what does this have to do with me? Dahe has sent a lot of money over here, and it was your two factories that intercepted it, so you can't blame me, right? ”

Zhao Jiacai smacked his mouth, but it was irrefutable, but subconsciously, he felt that things were not so simple. Eighty percent can't run, Wu Tian, what did this kid do inside......

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Wu Jianguo saw Wu Tian's expression, and said slowly: "Xiaotian, what are you really going to do, just be honest, you don't need to hide it from your Uncle Zhao." "Tsk, is my reputation really that bad?" Wu Tian said with a bitter face.

"There is ......" Zhang Zhixing said with a smile, and Chu Ninghe, who was seated, was also smiling and silent.

Wu Tian suddenly had a failed expression on his face, slapped his knee, and said, "Okay." I recruited. Actually, it really doesn't have much to do with me. On the other side of the river, a lot of money was allocated, but when they intercepted it, Jianhuabo informed me, and I didn't let him interfere......"

"Why don't you meddle?" Zhao Jiacai said urgently.

Yesterday, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he also went to the factory to negotiate with the workers' representatives, how to deal with this matter.

"Hehe......" Wu Tian only smiled, paused, and then turned his mouth and asked, "Uncle Zhao, what is your city's attitude towards this matter?" ”

"The attitude of the city?" Zhao Jiacai said, "Let's investigate it clearly first, and then we will say that the money that was intercepted was not corrupt in their factory, but it was left in the small treasury in the factory......

"You mean to prepare and dilute the mud, and the heads of those factories will not be held accountable?" Wu Tian said.

"I just don't want to pursue it, and the workers in the factory won't agree." Zhao Jiacai smiled bitterly, "But the money has not been greedy, and at most it will be punished, and it will be transferred from the post......"

Wu Tian smiled again and stopped talking.

"Oh, that's what you're looking forward to, aren't you?" Zhao Jiacai said suddenly.

"Now the three factories are nominally merged, but if you want to really integrate the three factories together, you can't expect these enterprise cadres who are full of bureaucratic ideas." Wu Tian smiled.

"Then you can't like that!" Zhao Jiacai said urgently.

"Uncle Zhao, don't blame me for this, okay? It's not me who asked them to withhold the workers' wages, it's their messing, and changing the leadership is also the voice of the masses, okay? Wu Tian shouted.

Zhao Jiacai couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Yes, you are reasonable, you can toss this matter casually, as long as you don't toss the factory down......"

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Of course, Wu Tian could not have collapsed the factory, but in just over half a month, the preferential activities held after the merger of the three distilleries have greatly increased the sales of the three distilleries. However, this is based on profit, and the real profit is not as good as the original Dahe Distillery.

Wu Tian is not worried about this situation at all, but Wu Jianhua is anxious, you must know that although Dahe Distillery is the first shareholder, it only accounts for 40% of the shares, which means that the profitability of Dahe Distillery has plummeted by as much as 60% or 70% after integration!

Therefore, when Wu Tian went to Shangdong County to pay New Year's greetings, he was inevitably pulled by Wu Jianhua to complain - this integration, the senior management of Wujiacun Group did not have any complaints, after all, everyone believed in Wu Tian, but the middle-level cadres and grassroots villagers had a lot of opinions, and even the new factory director Wu Jianhua was also very slanderous, thinking that Wu Jianhua was fooling around, which made Wu Jianhua very sad this year.

"Xiaotian, hurry up and inject capital into the group again, so as to increase our controlling stake first, otherwise if this continues, our losses will be too great......" Wu Jianhua said with a bitter face.

"Hehe, Uncle Jianhua, this matter is in a hurry, if you really want to inject capital now, wouldn't it make people see our conspiracy at a glance?" Wu Tian smiled, "The integration is not complete yet, don't make a fuss." ”

"Tsk, but if it goes on like this, it really won't work......" Wu Jianhua scratched his head.

"No matter how urgent it is, things have to be slow." Wu Tian smiled and said, "In this way, after the New Year, you will continue to develop the market while grasping the transformation of the management system of the two factories, and first give full play to the production capacity of the two factories. ”

Wu Jianhua smacked his lips and said, "Xiaotian, how can you do business without trying to make money, there is a lot of gossip in the village......"

"Uncle Jianhua, you can only catch big fish by putting a long line." Wu Tian said with a smile, "Don't worry about the gossip in the village for now, just let my uncle help you suppress it." Well, before the summer of this year, the two factories will be integrated, and the second capital injection will be made into the factories to increase their equity. In the second half of the year, let's find a way to swallow the factory in Baishui, and then it will be easy to make money, well, I promise you, when the Chinese New Year next year, I will help you increase the sales and profits of the factory several times directly! ”

"Uh...... How many times at once? Wu Jianhua said.

"Yes, it will be doubled several times at once, and if you don't make hundreds of millions of dollars next year, you will ask me!" Wu Tian said confidently.

Wu Jianhua looked at Wu Tian's expression, thought about Wu Tian's ability, gritted his teeth, and said, "Okay, I'll continue to hold on to it, and I'll hold it for another year!" ”
