Chapter 720 Acting as an Agent for the Export of Rare Earth Concentrates
According to Zhong Bai's calculations, although the 600-kilometer double railway line seems to be a huge amount of work and an astonishing cost, in fact, the most difficult construction is only more than 50 kilometers in the Taihang Mountains.
This section is not only difficult to construct, the construction factors are complex, but also takes a long time and the cost is very high, resulting in it being the most critical point.
But Zhong Bai has his own solution.
For the construction of the double line in the plain section, it is only necessary to form a report in writing within the National Rare Earth Comprehensive Coordination Group, and the Ministry of Industry will coordinate with the Ministry of Railways and the relevant provinces and cities along the way, which is believed to be not difficult.
After all, the construction of this double-track railway from the middle of China to the north and south was originally written in the design of the national "Sixth Five-Year Plan", and Zhong Bai's idea was just to determine its route.
In normal times, the determination of the direction of this line is indeed not a trivial matter, but under the premise that the relevant provinces and cities have not made outstanding achievements, with the establishment of a state-owned Beiguo rare earth concentrate plant in the Baiyun Obo mining area this time, and the situation of making China proud in the industrial field and diplomatic field, I believe that there are no competitors, and it is almost a sure thing to win this line.
As long as the line is determined, the project can be approved in accordance with the relevant procedures of the "Sixth Five-Year Plan" and then the construction will begin.
70% of the funds for the implementation of the Sixth Five-Year Plan are funded by the central government, and only the remaining 30% need to be borne by the local government.
The construction of this double line will cost the mining area a lot of money, not to mention tens of millions, but if the railway transportation line to the Qiongzhou small trade zone is opened, under the premise of continuously creating foreign exchange for the country in the future, I believe that even if there is a gap in the funds in the mining area, the Finance Department of the Autonomous Region will find a way to support them!
"I haven't had time to report to the capital yet, but after my rough calculation, I'm afraid there is at least a funding gap of at least 10 million or so for the construction of the most important section of the Taihang Mountains in the double line, but I will find a way to deal with these gaps."
"This idea, I was originally going to the Ministry of Industry to report on the recent work of the National Rare Earth Comprehensive Coordination Group after the year, since today Secretary Leng you have this idea, then I did not reserve all of it."
Zhong Bai continued to talk for about fifteen minutes, and he didn't feel a little dry in his tongue, so he took another sip of milk tea, and said: "In short, this piece, there will be news coming down from it after the year, I can guarantee it!" ”
Rao is Leng Ziyue has seen a lot of big scenes in the past two months, but in the face of a section chief's proposal involving the country's "Sixth Five-Year Plan", what is the small free trade zone on Qiongzhou Island, and the railway double-track plan in a new direction, he still feels that his head seems to be knocked on by a big stick!
"This plan is much bigger than I expected!" Leng Ziyue sighed after a long time: "There are some ideas in it, I can't understand it at my current superficial level, but it's okay, because I know that Section Chief Zhong is not a comrade who casually talks big, since you have such an eloquent and strategic idea, I think my previous ideas can be put aside for now, just wait for your news after the New Year!" ”
"Well, I don't dare to say that I am 100% sure of this, but at least there is a more than 80% possibility, everything will have to wait for the results of my visit to Qiongzhou in a few days." Zhong Bai nodded calmly and said.
This can be regarded as a formal response to Leng Ziyue's "request" in disguise, since this matter is all in place, then the next promotion of Geng Dali will naturally not have any changes.
"Okay, Section Chief Zhong, I'm going to a meeting soon, and I will make a decision on the replacement of the main leaders of the Mining Area Industrial Bureau, and then the official document issued by the Mining Area Personnel Bureau will be issued to the relevant units before getting off work this afternoon." Leng Ziyue got up, shook hands with Zhong Bai, and said with a smile: "Next, I will lead the relevant comrades of the district party committee to the grassroots townships and towns to condole, and it is estimated that there will be no time to send you to the station." ”
"How dare you." Zhong Bai also shook hands vigorously and said, "Then, Secretary Leng, let's see you next year." ”
"Then I'm looking forward to your good news." Leng Ziyue also nodded, and simply put on his notebook and went to the conference room.
……
That night, on the last train to the capital.
Zhong Bai, Ye Xing, Yu Dongfeng, Xu Guangxian, Mi Bin, and Yan Yutian were all in the same hard sleeper car.
Everyone is rushing home for the New Year, so they must rush to the capital tomorrow when the Chinese New Year's Eve is in a hurry.
Ye Xing has been very busy these days, and since the director of the plant officially took office, he will not sleep for more than four hours every night - because when the Beiguo Rare Earth Concentrate Factory entered the official preparation period, the work was too busy, so he went directly to the bunk and fell asleep as soon as he got in the car.
Mi Bin and Yan Yutian chatted with Xu Guangxian, and by the way, they also "reported" to him about their recent work, especially Yan Yutian, who was the acting director of the factory, and told the old academician about the recent reorganization of the Ningyuan Rare Earth Metallurgical Plant.
After the train started, Zhong Bai took Yu Dongfeng to the junction of the carriages to smoke and chat by the way.
"Hey, Dongfeng, I'll tell you about that before I leave in the afternoon, I have to worry about it after the year." Zhong Bai took a deep breath of Hongta Mountain and said slowly.
Yu Dongfeng shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile and said, "How dare I not take your business to heart?" However, this time, the group has to pay to sponsor the construction of the tunnel, which is also outrageous! It's the same as doing charity, and everything in the country has to be bloody? Besides, if we don't have anything to do with the construction of a double railway, why do we have to pay millions of dollars out of our pockets? ”
"Hehe, you don't understand this. This is also an investment in disguise. Zhong Bai explained with a smile: "Although it seems that Baifeng Group is paying for nothing this time, its name will undoubtedly be remembered by the State Planning Commission, the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and other departments - this is different from the feeling that these ministries and commissions have seen in the newspaper before, they will pay more attention to the opinions of Baifeng Group, and after the establishment of the small free trade zone on Qiongzhou Island, we will seize the opportunity!" ”
"You mean...... Is it an agent for the export of rare earth concentrates? As soon as he heard Zhong Bai mention the small free trade zone, Yu Dongfeng's face immediately became solemn.
"That's right, in the past, the export of rare earth concentrate was a special agency company of the State Planning Commission, since it is a new free trade zone, then this time it is possible to try to reform, so that the private group to undertake the task of acting as an exporter." Zhong Bai paused and continued: "Although the tariff has been reduced, but the agency procedures of this area are also a lot of profits, the most important thing is that this is linked to state-owned assets, it is not only long-term, but also without any risk, for the entire group, it is completely a long-term, fixed source of profits in the future, which is a great thing!" ”
