"Critical?!" Xiang Pan began to feel more and more that Zhong Bai's plan was unpredictable.

"Yes, back to the matter itself, what is the purpose of MD Newtek's exclusive agent of 30% of China's global rare earth concentrate exports?" Seeing that Xiang Pan was puzzled, Zhong Bai could only explain to the other party 1510: "Then we have to find out the reason why they suddenly increased their imports." ”

This reason, Zhong Bai knows even if he doesn't have specific information about MD.

That is because he choked the channel for RB people to import rare earth concentrate a year ago, which led to the global lag in the research and development progress of a new generation of rare earth advanced products NdFeB permanent magnets.

This part, you don't have to think about it, whether it is France, West Germany or MD in Europe, they have already learned the news in their countries, and the corresponding companies in these countries, after the RB company that rushed to the forefront in this area paused, what do you think they will do?

Of course, it is to rekindle the confidence of its own research and development, in order to be the fastest in the world!

After all, whoever develops the NdFeB permanent magnet first has the right to set standards for this product.

As I said before, as long as you have the right to set standards, patents or anything, in the future, any country in the world, any company using your standards to produce the corresponding products, then you can get a piece of the pie, there is no doubt about it, and it is not divided into Western and Eastern countries.

It's just that our Huaguo has been far behind in this area before, and we haven't set foot in it!

But Zhong Bai's idea is very simple, in the three months of the establishment of a small free trade zone, he and Academician Xu Guangxian together put all their energy into the research and development of NdFeB permanent magnets, and must be the first in the world to make it, rewriting the history of the first invention of NdFeB permanent magnets by RB people Sagawa Masa!

"With NdFeB permanent magnets, we can quickly apply it to a variety of high-end products in the market, and this new invention will also refresh the world's understanding of the importance of rare earth elements!" Zhong Bai said confidently: "At that time, whether it is RB or MD, after they see our technical advantages, they will give up the idea of importing rare earth concentrate and researching NdFeB permanent magnets on their own." ”

"Think about it, under the premise that their domestic companies have no demand for rare earth concentrate imports, MD people will still come to pester us, looking for us to have the exclusive agency right to export 30% of rare earth concentrates in the world?"

Zhong Bai woke up the dreamer with a word, and Xiang Pan only understood after listening to it that Zhong Bai had already started playing this big game of chess more than a month ago!

"You...... You're a great kid! Even Xiang Pan, who has always been rigorous, couldn't help but change his title from "Little Zhong" to "You Kid", and his admiration for Zhong Bai's whole plan can be seen!

"What else do you need here, just say it, say it all at once!" Xiang Pan immediately grabbed the notebook and pen from the table, and said: "I have memorized it, if you need to coordinate with the ministry, I will go to the minister later, and if you need to coordinate with other ministries and commissions, as long as the ministry meets and agrees, I will go in person at that time!" ”

Now that the plans have been rolled out, there is nothing to hide, Zhong Bai simply said: "I have some needs here......"

Xiang Pan listened and remembered, but the surprise in his eyes couldn't be hidden!

Zhong Bai's first request is to come forward and coordinate with the State Planning Commission to set up a written proposal in conjunction with the small free trade zone this time, and turn the national rare earth comprehensive coordination group from a temporary institution into a fixed organization.

It would be very difficult for the Ministry of Industry to put forward this demand in normal times, because the Ministry of Industry and the State Development Planning Commission are not subordinate to each other, and strictly speaking, the State Development Planning Commission has much greater powers, and even if there is such an idea, it should be put forward by the State Development Planning Commission, not by the Ministry of Industry.

But now the situation is different, due to the pressure on the MD side, since the Ministry of Industry dares to propose a solution, the responsibility lies with the Ministry of Industry, and the responsibility naturally has power, the two are complementary and inseparable, and no one can hold back.

Zhong Bai's second requirement is that the ministry should find a way to transfer himself from the Tianhe Provincial Department of Industry and enter the National Rare Earth Comprehensive Coordination Group.

This is not Zhong Bai's important official, but to engage in this level of work, with his current status as the section chief of the Tianhe Provincial Department of Industry, it is not right, only by clarifying his job responsibilities to rare earths, and even to the field of rare earth concentrates and rare earth high-grade products, he can officially come forward and deal with foreigners in the future.

Zhong Bai's third request was to ask the ministry to give him the right to send people to participate in the research of NdFeB permanent magnets!

Yes, you heard it right, Zhong Bai is now just like Tong Sifang in the past, and he wants to be the convener of the project himself!

If you want to mobilize Tong Sifang, Yuan Jianguo and other professionals who can contribute to the development of NdFeB permanent magnets, you can't do it without giving military talismans!

Of course, nominally, the power to choose people is "delegated" to Academician Xu Guangxian, but in fact, the operational decisions are made by Zhong Bai!

After taking two full pages of notes, Xiang Pan's conversation with Zhong Bai lasted for a full hour and a half before it ended.

However, this conversation is the beginning of a new page for Huaguo Industry!

……

On April 5, 1983, Huaguo first announced the successful development of NdFeB permanent magnets, becoming the first country in the world to make a breakthrough in rare earth advanced products!

This news shocked the global industrial scientific community!

RB people were the first to jump out to question this achievement, and the Western media was not far behind, launching a rhetorical attack on China through various channels!

However, the National Rare Earth Comprehensive Coordination Group, Ningyuan Rare Earth Metallurgical Plant and Zhongbai gave them a strong response in the most direct way!

On June 2, 1983, Patek Philippe, a well-known Swiss watch manufacturer, held a global press conference, at which Hicks, the eldest daughter of the family, announced that the new Nautilus series 750 gold quartz women's watch series produced by Patek Philippe Company used NdFeB produced in China for the first time as a new component of the gossamer component in the watch.

Because of the adoption of this new technology, Patek Philippe's new watches greatly reduce the need for regular degaussing instruments to degauss the watch, which also allows the world to see the powerful application ability of NdFeB permanent magnets, a new rare earth advanced product, in various industrial fields!

Both MD and RB scientists, after carefully studying the application range of NdFeB permanent magnets, praised it as "the greatest invention in rare earth materials science in the 80s"!

On July 3, 1983, the Qiongzhou Island Small Free Trade Zone was officially established, because of the successful development of NdFeB permanent magnets, more than 40 developed countries and regions around the world have signed FTAs with China to import the products they need from the Qiongzhou Island Small Free Trade Zone.

Since then, the global demand for rare earth concentrate imports has decreased significantly, because no matter how much you import, you don't have your own independent NdFeB permanent magnet production line, so what's the point?

Janet's proposal has been forgotten by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs at some point, and Newtek, which was first reported in the California Industry News, also filed for bankruptcy in just seven months because a large number of shares were sold off, causing the company to bubble!

Before the MD Securities Investigation Committee completed its investigation, Tom White, the initiator of this incident, had committed suicide by jumping into the sea!

The Blackstone Fund, which is controlled by Stone, collapsed because of this serious injury, which also changed the attitude of Soros, who has always been optimistic about it by MD financial predators.

According to history, the Blackstone Fund was originally an important part of Soros's hedge fund, but after this battle, the Blackstone Fund directly collapsed, which also weakened the strength of Soros's hedge fund in disguise, resulting in the 1998 Asian financial crisis at the same level The power was greatly reduced, and China's foreign exchange reserves were reduced by more than 40%!

Due to its success in the rare earth industry, Huaguo has successfully applied it in various fields - chips, semiconductors, national defense and military industry, etc., and the effect is not small!

In April 1990, Baifeng Group, which is a pioneer in the rare earth industry, adheres to the spirit of "relying on rare earths, becoming bigger and stronger", and makes every effort to invest and blossom in various high-tech industries, and in April 1990, it took the lead in listing on the XG Stock Exchange, breaking the history of becoming the first mainland group listed on the XG Stock Exchange in 1993, which was maintained by Tsingtao Brewery in the previous life!

……

Many years later, Zhong Bai, who is the president of Huaguo Industrial Research Institute, once sighed that when did Xinhuaguo's industrial leap begin, there is no doubt that it is the day when the research of NdFeB permanent magnets is successful!

After entering the 21st century, MD's famous "Time" magazine once conducted an exclusive interview with Zhong Bai, the inventor of NdFeB permanent magnets.

The reporter clearly remembered that he once asked Zhong Bai a question.

"Dean Zhong, under such difficult conditions at that time, what kind of motivation did you start to develop NdFeB permanent magnets?"

And Zhong Bai's answer was resounding.

"Because time is running out!"

"The humiliating modern history of China in the past 100 years is directly and importantly related to the backwardness of industrial development."

"As a new generation of Chinese industrialists, we certainly have the obligation and mission to make our motherland stand on top of the world again!"
