Regarding Zhou Qingfeng's decision to build an information network, He Yulan is still ignorant. But Zhou Qingfeng still understands the meaning of spreading more news and finding more companies to compete.

In order to achieve Zhou Qingfeng's goal, Yulan transferred more than 20 people from the secretariat, liaison department, business department, publicity department, and procurement department and decided to give it a try.

Let's start by building a crude information publishing platform.

"We have a detailed list of our suppliers' recent cargo needs, transportation, talent recruitment, etc."

"I contacted the big newspapers in the major provinces of the country and bought their advertising space for a week. Don't be afraid to spend money, buy generously. ”

"With the news in the newspaper, any company can fax us to propose supply and demand information, and if we can't solve it, we will find a way to pass the information to other companies that may solve it."

Any......?

In the conference room of the headquarters, the group staff who were summoned were stunned by the words of the acting secretary general. Someone asked: "Mr. He, can any company send us a fax?" ”

This step is a bit too big.

He Yulan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Don't care about the last one, just do the first two well." Let's just send our own supply and demand to the whole country first. ”

Someone else whispered: "Isn't it too exaggerated to send it to the whole country?" Is it to try it in the province first? After all, this cost is not small, I am afraid that it will cost millions at a time. ”

He Yulan was stunned again, she also felt that Zhou Qingfeng's desire to build a nationwide information network was really exaggerated. But when she heard that a million could send information all over the country, she was determined.

"Just send it to the whole country, don't be afraid to spend money. Although it is said that the tree is popular, it does not hurt to make it more famous. ”

Everyone in the conference room looked at each other, and they all felt that if they really advertised all over the country, the sensational effect would not be smaller than that of 'Holy Light' buying four large passenger planes.

But it is precisely because the group has just bought a large passenger plane that it has enough credibility to attract domestic manufacturers to do business with it. Otherwise, in such a small place as Tianyang, how could an unknown company gain the recognition of others.

The effect of this advertising is definitely 'one plus one is greater than two'.

Thinking about the fame of his group all over the world and going to the next level, the more than 20 people who were gathered were still quite excited.

Everyone worked overtime overnight, summarizing the demand and supply of the group itself, suppliers and even Maozi, and one page couldn't be put down.

The Holy Light has become a behemoth before you know it. Its little demand is already a big deal in the eyes of others.

This is true of the ten canning production lines, the one-time nationwide advertising, and the 'Holy Light' steel mill that Watanabe talked about.

When He Yulan had a headache for canning, Professor Zheng, who was in charge of construction machinery, had a headache for tinplate in the steel factory.

In the 'Fourth Five-Year Plan' in the 70s, in order to improve the local economy and make use of regional resources, a large number of 'five small enterprises' were launched in China.

There are not only five small 'five', small steel, small coal, small glass, small oil refining, small cement, small machinery, small chemical fertilizer, small thermal power, these are all counted.

The low technical threshold is the characteristic of the 'five small enterprises', and in the case of the overall backwardness of the industry in those years, the 'five small enterprises' have solved the demand for primary industrial products in various regions.

But in the 90s, the 'five small enterprises' wasted resources, polluted badly, and the poor quality came to the fore. In fact, the industries in Tianyang City are all considered 'five small', and none of them are large-scale.

In the new century, the 'five small enterprises' were gradually closed down due to various problems, allowing large enterprises with sufficient scale and technology to survive.

Tianyang Iron and Steel Plant is an authentic 'small steel', relying on several electric furnaces to use scrap iron to make steel in a short distance to solve the local demand for steel.

This factory was originally profitable, but it was still sold by the city government to 'Holy Light' for foreign exchange.

Zhou Qingfeng has a recycling yard that processes 50,000 tons of domestic waste every month, and produces a large amount of scrap iron, scrap aluminum and scrap metal every day, which is just sent to the steel plant for processing.

Because there is enough scrap metal as raw materials, the efficiency of the restructured 'Shengguang' steel plant has increased by more than ten times. The workers in the factory are happy.

But......

The technology of this broken factory is too backward.

Several electric furnaces have high energy consumption, low production capacity, and lack of profile processing capacity. The only thing that the factory can produce is crude steel ingots, not even rebar for construction.

Before the Nantou Township Machinery Repair Factory made axes for Zhou Qingfeng, it was to buy steel ingots from the Municipal Iron and Steel Plant for forging and processing again.

As for the other plates, pipes, wires are gone. Because those are all 'high-tech', the small factory doesn't have those equipment at all.

This can't produce high-grade steel, let's supply low-end - 'Holy Light' now has to buy canned food in large quantities. Whether it's a glass bottle cap or a large barrel of tin cans, tinplate is needed.

But this broken factory can't even produce tinplate.

'Tinplate' is a common name for electroplated tinned thin steel sheets.

Sorry, it's also 'high-tech'.

Don't look at it inconspicuous, to roll the steel plate into a uniform thickness of 0.15 to 0.8 mm and tin on both sides, this is not something that can be done casually, there is a series of production processes.

Anyway, Tianyang's 'small steel' factory really can't handle it.

Zhou Qingfeng once thought about whether to buy equipment for the 'Shengguang' steel plant to upgrade, but found that it was a pipe dream.

Tianyang does not produce coal, and steelmaking relies entirely on electricity.

There are a lot of small hydropower plants in Tianyang, but they can't support a large steel plant.

The most important thing is - how many dishes? Drink like this. Do you want to have a Cda sporin?

Do you know what the steel coils loaded on heavy trucks of more than 100 tons will be pulled at every turn in later generations? Do you know what equipment is needed for rolling steel coils? Do you know how much a steel mill that can produce steel coils will have to invest and how long it will take?

Anyway, Zhou Qingfeng didn't know, and when he knew, he immediately dispelled his idea in this regard. The 'Holy Light' steel plant still honestly produces some crude steel and aluminum ingots, and don't think about anything else.

But now, because the 'Holy Light' buys cans in large quantities, the glass bottles and caps for canned food are out of stock.

Zhou Qingfeng wants to use large barrels, but the tinplate that can make square iron barrels is gone.

The presidents who were far away in the imperial capital were dumbfounded. This scene is 'déjà vu' - what to buy, what to shortage. What do you want, what price increases.

Doesn't this clearly mean that he wants to kill Lao Tzu?

For the tinplate, Professor Zheng, who served as the director, had to go to the steel factory to supervise the production. All the crude steel in the factory was loaded onto the train and transported to the provincial capital, and the tinned steel plate was exchanged from the large steel plant.

Because steel is now in short supply across the country, planned and unplanned production sales are scheduled for a few months or even a year. If you don't exchange crude steel, people won't sell you goods at all, and you won't be able to add money.

But even so, the 'Holy Light' still lacks tinned thin steel plates. Many canneries have said - want to buy canned food? Yes. When you run out of cans and bottles, buy some for us.

I can't rush it, I can only wait.

Now this information has been arranged to be reported - Tianyang's 'Holy Light' group urgently needs to purchase hundreds of goods, and at the same time sell hundreds of goods.
