Chapter 185: Inspection
Lu Zhengdong still led the team to Fulin Province according to the original opportunity, but the attention to Dongshan Aluminum is not under Fulin Province, and there is a reason why Dongshan Aluminum is so dragged.
Although the largest in China is the national aluminum industry, the national aluminum industry is the largest producer of alumina and electrolytic aluminum in China, but its benefits are not very good, the national aluminum industry due to the heavy burden, is large-scale downsizing and efficiency and stripping of non-performing assets, focusing on improving the construction of the industrial chain,
Dongshan Aluminum is a rising star, the burden is smaller than the national aluminum, the benefits are better than the national aluminum, this round of reform has been divided into a lot of assets and turf, so in the capital market is popular is Dongshan Aluminum, in the two thousand years when the country abolished the non-ferrous metal system, many people think that Dongshan Aluminum believes that Dongshan Aluminum is the biggest winner in this round of reform.
Due to the popularity of capital, many people believe that its competitive advantage has been further expanded, the industrial chain is more complete, and at the same time, it has opened up a broad space for the operation of industry and capital across the country.
"The king is coming", many media speak so highly of Dongshan Aluminum.
The national aluminum industry proposed to "close to the world's top two and create the world's first-class." And Lin Zhian also did not show weakness to propose to build Dongshan Aluminum into a "real world-class enterprise".
Tong Guò Zhao Yimang, Lu Zhengdong also figured out some of the details of Dongshan Aluminum.
Dongshan Aluminum can be said to have many problems, one is not good management, the other is not good mechanism, in Luo'an's factory, Dongshan Aluminum and another aluminum factory in the area, there are more cadres than another company's employees, for this. The grassroots employees of Dongshan Aluminum have a deep understanding. Sometimes it feels. There are more cadres in the workshop than there are working. And in another enterprise more than a hundred workers are managed by a workshop director.
Moreover, at the end of the day, the work done by five workers in their factory may not be as much as that of one worker in another family. The other company does not support idlers, and when the task is urgent, one worker can use it for three people.
The management of Dongshan Aluminum is also a little slack, and some positions can acquiesce to sleep, in addition, the financial cost of Dongshan Aluminum is huge. Growing financial expenses. It is closely related to Dongshan Aluminum's overseas investment and domestic expansion.
Although the stall is wide, it is also burdened with heavy financial costs, and a lot of Dongshan Aluminum's funds come from cheap bank loans and state grants, and the control of risks is not as prudent as that of private enterprises.
And more importantly, while Dongshan Aluminum is busy expanding, it also ignores an important production cost - electricity.
According to public information, the cost of electricity accounts for 40% of the production cost of electrolytic aluminum, exceeding that of raw materials. According to calculations. The electricity consumption intensity of domestic electrolytic aluminum is 14,000 kWh/ton, that is, every penny of electricity price increase. The cost will be increased by one hundred and forty yuan/ton.
Now the State Grid is to implement electricity concessions for electrolytic aluminum projects, but even so, it is four cents higher than the cost of power supply from self-supplied power plants, and now the proportion of self-backup electricity of Dongshan Aluminum is less than forty percent, and many other private aluminum companies are almost all provided by self-supplied power plants, on this one, Dongshan Aluminum will have a cost of several hundred yuan a ton more.
Of course, if it is really like Zhao Yimang said, Lin Zhi'an's claws are relatively deep, and the cost of building a large-scale self-supplied power plant may not be low.
In order to compete for the market, Dongshan Aluminum also started a price war, according to public reports, Dongshan Aluminum once set the price of aluminum at a low level in order to squeeze new producers into the industry out of the market.
Seeing this, Lu Zhengdong couldn't help but laugh dumbly, just like this, the cost control zhì to squeeze those small-scale private aluminum out of the market is completely fantastical, Dongshan Aluminum does this to grab the market share of the national aluminum industry is about the same, in this way, the so-called profit moisture of Dongshan Aluminum is quite large, if it is really like the profits announced by Dongshan Aluminum, then the national aluminum industry will not lose money......
The restructuring of large state-owned enterprises has just been carried out, and the profits of enterprises are limited, just like the achievements of water injection, many central enterprises have also injected water into profits, but the water injection of Dongshan Aluminum is particularly large, just like Zhang Erjiang back then.
Lu Zhengdong has no intention of evaluating Lin Zhi'an's ability, but is analyzing his character, from which it can be seen that Lin Zhi'an is more flamboyant, arrogant, and happy, and it seems that he is also using Dongshan Aluminum as a springboard to enter a higher level, and the Development Planning Commission or the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission should be its goal......
And when Lu Zhengdong speculated about Lin Zhi'an like this, Lin Zhian didn't take Lu Zhengdong seriously, as a figure in the aluminum industry that the country relied on, Lin Zhian felt that he did have proud capital.
Knowing that the inspection team of the Western Affairs Office also included Dongshan Aluminum's project in Yaoxi Province in the scope of inspection, he couldn't help frowning when he got the news, stretched out his hand and slowly rubbed his meticulous back, and secretly said that this Lu Zhengdong really doesn't know the depth!
Lin Zhian is completely sneering at the inspection team led by the Western Affairs Office, especially the one established under the leadership of Lu Zhengdong, in his opinion, this is just a political show, but Lu Zhengdong's political show is not his business, and the choice of Dongshan Aluminum is Lu Zhengdong's fault, but even if he wants to be in the limelight, he should choose the right target, and Dongshan Aluminum is also something he can touch?
Dongshan Aluminum's project in Yaoxi Province was built in the old revolutionary base area, and many old leaders who fought here were very supportive of him, not to mention that many high-level officials also came to inspect it many times, and the inspection team was at most just a formality......
Lin Zhi'an didn't take the inspection team seriously even if he was reminded by Zeng Huaide, and was busy with other things, but not long after, Qiu Chengyu, the person in charge of the Yaoxi Provincial Branch, called and said that the inspection team was investigating very seriously.
Lin Zhi'an couldn't help frowning and asked:
"Didn't you hint at them? You're not doing your job? ”
Qiu Chengyu heard that Lin Zhi'an's tone was a little unkind, and he hurriedly said:
"It's been done very well, but the people in the inspection team don't get in at all, and they are completely different from the previous inspection team, they don't ask anything, they just check the accounts, and we can't stop it, the inspection team seems to be prepared, it seems to be looking for economic problems, it seems that the people who come are not good."
Lin Zhian couldn't help but be relieved when he heard it, this project is an old area project, in addition to acquiescing to a few related households involved in the construction, not only did he not stretch out his hand on it, but the people below all said hello, presumably Qiu Chengyu didn't have the courage to mess around, there are other problems here, but there are no economic problems, and it is not so easy to catch him.
But after thinking about it, he said:
"How to cooperate with the work of the inspection team, you should know in your heart."
Qiu Chengyu naturally understands that the so-called cooperation is actually to create an illusion, not to really cooperate......
Lu Zhengdong soon got a report from the inspection team that went to Dongshan Aluminum's Yaoxi project: the other party was very uncooperative.
This is completely in Lu Zhengdong's expectations, and it is strange that Dongshan Aluminum wants to cooperate, but Lu Zhengdong's investigation of economic problems is a false shot.
In Dongshan Aluminum, the profit of Yaoxi Branch is the most eye-catching, because of this, the state will invest in this project from the perspective of bringing Yaoxi economic development, but Lu Zhengdong found that Yaoxi Branch has no advantage in geographical location and no advantage in electricity consumption, and the national aluminum industry is near the port of Pingdu Aluminum in Pingdu Province, which can save a raw material transportation cost; At the same time, its industrial chain covers upstream and downstream deep processing, comprehensive utilization of Cheng dù is high, and it is a self-supplied power plant power generation, its profit is lower than that of Dongshan Aluminum Yaoxi Branch, this hole is very large, there is such an opportunity Dongshan Aluminum will find a way to embezzle part of the funds to fill the profit hole of Yaoxi Branch.
As long as you grasp the first-hand materials in this regard, do not be greedy for more and seek perfection, as long as you grasp the important doubts, grasp a little bit and break through quickly, do not give the other party enough time to react, as long as there are violations of laws and regulations, Dongshan Aluminum will not cooperate.
The members of the inspection team are not the second-line personnel, but the incumbent cadres, and Lu Zhengdong also specially selected elite soldiers, they know very well what it means for them to be the first cannon established as the inspection team, the first battle with me, with me will win, Dongshan Aluminum's size is much smaller than that of other giants, and there are far fewer entanglements of interests involved, and the pressure on the inspection team is much smaller.
Within a few days of Lu Zhengdong's arrival in Fulin Province, it was found that Jinshan City, below Fulin, had embezzled funds for the development of the western region and funds allocated by the Ministry of Education for the renovation of dilapidated school buildings to renovate office buildings.
At the inspection meeting, Lu Zhengdong spoke:
"I took a look at the last few years, and the financial balance of Jinshan City was only a few million yuan at its best, which was less than the profit of a medium-sized enterprise. But looking at the office buildings, I have also traveled to many places all over the country, but the office buildings in Jinshan City are more luxurious, magnificent, and larger than many economically developed places in the east. With a construction area of more than 40,000 square meters, which is equivalent to eight White Houses, and according to the fact that the usable area of the offices of officials at the ministerial level cannot exceed 54 square meters, this building can accommodate more than 800 ministerial-level leaders.
The civil servants and cadres in Jinshan City are extremely strict, and even this did not fill the office building, and the secretary and the mayor each occupied six offices: toilets, conference rooms, meeting rooms, and even bedrooms.
I have been to the offices of Secretary Zhou of the Provincial Party Committee and Governor Zhang, and compared to the offices of the secretary and mayor of Jinshan City, it is almost homely, and what is even more worrying is that the public servants of Jinshan City enjoy life in luxurious office buildings, and there are more than 3,000 teachers and students in several counties of the city who are still fearfully attending classes in Class D dilapidated houses.
As far as the backward areas of the western region are concerned, this remark is of the most realistic significance, and only when the quality of the broad masses of the people is improved can the development of the western region be faster and more effective. Spending a lot of money on the construction of office buildings, rather than on creating greater economic and social benefits, is the biggest irresponsibility! ......" (To be continued......)
