Reborn 80s

Chapter 687 The Depressed Steel Industry
After the lively economic annual meeting, Chen Huaiqing did not return to Yuzhou immediately, but stayed in Jiangcheng.

Jiangcheng can be said to be one of the birthplaces of Huaguo's modern industry.

There is also a considerable relationship with Yuzhou.

For example, the predecessor of Yuzhou Iron and Steel was the Hanyang Iron Works that moved westward.

Of course, the steel company in Jiangcheng is now Jiangcheng Iron and Steel. Chen Huaiqing still has a little understanding of this company, and knows that it will merge with Baosteel in the future to form the world's largest steel complex.

For Jiangcheng Iron and Steel at this time, the good times seemed to be coming to an end.

Since last year, the steel market has undergone sudden changes.

Iron and steel, which is not worried about selling, has also begun to become unsalable.

After the real estate bubble on South China Sea Island burst, it inevitably affected the real estate market in other places.

The massive real estate development suddenly fell silent.

The market demand is weak, but in the past few years, the demand for steel has been quite high, and various steel factories have naturally expanded their production capacity.

Iron and steel plants cannot shut down the furnace casually. It costs a lot of money to shut down the furnace once and then start production again.

Therefore, in many cases, steel plants are in production even if they are losing money.

If it is produced but cannot be sold, naturally it can only be said to be piled up in the warehouse.

Pile in the warehouse, which means that a large amount of funds are pressed in the warehouse.

Anyway, when there is a surplus of steel, it is extremely difficult to reduce production capacity.

Other industries just stop production casually, but not the steel industry.

"Chen Dong, you need help!"

Chen Huaiqing: "Liu Xing, how can I help you?"

Looking at the various steel products piled up in the warehouse, there are rebar, steel coils, and steel ingots placed outside.

Chen Huaiqing naturally understood that this was because he wanted to help find a market by himself.

It's easy to find a market.

Dongmo Real Estate is the largest real estate development company in the country, and it needs to use a lot of construction rebar every year.

The owner of the commercial house developed by Dongmo Real Estate is all about quality.

Reinforced concrete is absolutely full of materials.

Apart from Dongmo Real Estate, pension fund companies have never stopped building public rental housing across the country.

Pension fund companies are not only investing in the construction of public rental housing, but also building office buildings and commercial stores.

In terms of fixed asset investment, pension fund companies really prefer to do it.

Chen Huaiqing's goal is to make the pension fund company feel at ease as the largest landlord in the country to collect rent.

If you want to say that the largest landlord in the country, the pension fund company is really it now.

Residential housing area held by pension fund companies is close to 3 million square meters, covering major cities across the country.

Pension fund companies have built public rental housing in cities, which has alleviated the housing problem in cities.

In the past, when the pension fund company was promoted to the whole country, it took over many land plots and shops in the city from various places.

Now, it is gradually being developed continuously.

Many of them were built into modern residential quarters or commercial streets.

Greatly improved the image of the city.

In addition to these plots, the pension fund company took a lot of land in the suburbs of the city before, and now it is starting to develop one after another.

As long as Jiangcheng Iron and Steel can grab a few big customers, then there is no need to worry about sales.

Little days will suddenly become easier.

It can be said that as long as there are a few big customers, the next step is to directly guarantee the harvest in drought and flood, and do a good job of production with peace of mind.

Chen Huaiqing and Liu Shenggui are relatively familiar. In the early years, Liu Shenggui worked in the ministry, and Chen Huaiqing had already dealt with him.

At that time, Liu Shenggui helped Chen Huaiqing a lot.

Chen Huaiqing naturally kept this in mind.

Favors are things that are owed and must be paid back.

When someone comes to you for help, it doesn't violate any principles, and it's something that can be done easily.

If you don't help, people will spread the word, and Chen Huaiqing's reputation will inevitably be damaged.

As for reputation, the more people have some social status, the more they value it.

After reaching a certain level, one will understand how important this reputation is.

Just talk about the brand!
The importance of the brand, not to mention everyone knows.

All companies are careful to maintain their brand image.

Personal reputation is actually equivalent to a personal "brand"!
Liu Shenggui: "Help me buy some, not too much, just [-] tons."

Liu Shenggui naturally knew that there were two steel factories under Mota Holdings.

Yuzhou Iron and Steel and Yuzhou Special Steel.

The steel with the largest production capacity in Yuzhou Iron and Steel includes steel for automobiles and steel for construction.

Now the production capacity of Yuzhou Iron and Steel has reached 800 million tons.

And Yuzhou Special Steel, this steel company mainly produces high-end steel, which is used in the field of machinery manufacturing, such as the steel used for aircraft landing gear, which is produced by Yuzhou Special Steel.

In addition, tank armor steel, gun tube steel, submarine steel, etc., are also produced by Yuzhou Special Steel.

In the past, Yuzhou Special Steel was known as the mother of all industries in the Southwest.

After Mota Holdings took over, it continued to increase technology research and development. In addition, before that, it brought a large amount of metallurgical materials from the former alliance.

There are a lot of metallurgical materials, which are simply things that cannot be bought with money.

With these materials, the materials that Yuzhou Special Steel can produce will naturally be greatly improved.

Yuzhou Special Steel now has an annual output of 200 million tons of special steel, and the production plant is next to Yuzhou Iron and Steel.

After several years of relocation, the two factories have all moved to Zhi County.

As far as Zhi County is concerned, with the establishment of two steel factories, the economy can be regarded as an immediate improvement.

In addition, Zhixian County has abundant limestone, and the cement industry has developed quite well.

Let's produce cement, the pollution is still quite serious.

Dust equipment and so on, naturally it should be installed.

Chen Huaiqing didn't want to say that he was pointed at his nose and scolded.

After moving the steel plant away from the main urban area, Yuzhou also started to move some other factories away.

Keep heavily polluting factories away from the main city.

The other is the control of corporate pollution, especially pollution from chemical plants.

The pollution from chemical plants is the most serious.

It belongs directly to being seen at a glance.

Chen Huaiqing's face was full of surprise, was it [-] tons?

Is it more than [-] tons?
It is indeed a lot.

But really speaking, it's not much.

You know, Mota Energy is constantly investing in the construction of hydropower stations in Shuchuan!

Each of these hydropower stations requires a lot of reinforced concrete.

Mota Energy is rich now, and the electricity produced every year is not only satisfied with the local consumption in Shuchuan, but also transmitted to other regions through long-distance transmission of high-voltage lines.

An ultra-long-distance power transmission line has been planned to transmit power directly from Shuchuan to the Yangtze River Delta region.

This is also the transmission line with the longest transmission distance in China today, with a total length of more than 700 kilometers.

There is no reference in the world for such a long-distance power transmission.

The Hua people have to face this extremely difficult technical challenge alone.
