reborn in the fiery age

There may be many reasons for your success, but to put it simply, Ju Gang was not convinced by this one, and he was about to reorganize.Reorganization and merger must be willing on both sides. Reorganization facilitated by administrative means, financial means, etc. will often drag down the two companies.

If it were me, I wouldn't force the merger, even if the merger would have to wait for Ju Steel to be at the end of its rope.Of course, what I mean by the end of the mountain is not your current method, but that Jugang has a major problem in its management and cannot survive. . "

Cheng Guang was taken aback, "Mr. Sun, Ju Steel's operating costs are much lower than Qi Steel's. If Ju Steel can't continue to operate, wouldn't Qi Steel go bankrupt?"

Sun Zujie shook his head, "Comrade Cheng Guang, you must remember that the steel industry is a cyclical industry. The good situation in the past few years has blinded too many comrades, thinking that the high growth and high profits of the steel industry will continue. In fact this is not true.

Our economy has reached a turning point, and the expansion of infrastructure and urbanization will indeed continue for a while, but the transition to consumption, industrial upgrading, and climbing the upstream of the industrial chain will be inevitable.

Under this trend, it is impossible for the steel industry to have such a huge incremental market as in previous years, and to transform into a stock market competition, which should be in the past few years.At that time, in order to survive, companies from all over the world will inevitably have a fierce competition.At this time, the internal strength of the enterprise is considered. Whoever has the lowest cost and the highest technology can live longer.

my country's steel industry relies too much on foreign iron ore, which also determines who has a more complete industrial chain, who is closer to the sea, and who is more sustainable.I estimate that, except for a few steel mills invested by Tianyi along the coast, all others will suffer huge losses.

It is inevitable that Qigang will fail. Jugang should have a better life, but it will not be much better. The technology is not good enough, and the investment in environmental protection is not enough. At the moment when more and more attention is paid to environmental protection, this area will definitely drag down the development of Jugang.

In this case, if I were the governor, I would not expand the production capacity by another ton, but would focus on how to cultivate my internal strength. First, I would find a way to solve the technical and environmental problems of Ju Steel; second, I would try my best All methods are used to transfer or reduce the production capacity of Qigang in the mainland; the third is to continuously improve the technical content of steel products and increase the profit per unit product.

If these three points are done well, the strength of Qilu Iron and Steel Industry will be truly improved.Don't focus on any Qiju integration, it will not solve any practical problems at all, but will waste precious time. "

Speaking of this, Sun Zujie said coldly, "This is the case in the steel industry and the coal industry. There is a high probability that this will be the case in various cyclical industries. There are too many traditional industries in Qilu, and the technical content of various industries is not high. It is a phenomenon that they are big but not strong. Obviously, your difficulties will soon arise.

If your province can't face up to all this and come up with effective methods, but continue to pretend to be big, perfunctory, pile up data, make this big, that big, ten years later, you are not chasing Guangnan, but It will inevitably be opened by Jiangdong, and may even be overtaken by Zhedong. "

Sun Zujie paused, and scanned the two Qilu native comrades, "At that time, I don't know how you will explain to Qilu's fathers and villagers!"

Sun Zujie made alarmist speeches and left a bunch of warning words, which were full of dissatisfaction.He did have reasons to be dissatisfied. Before Cheng Guang was transferred to Qilu, Sun Zujie specially asked him to work in Shennan for three years. Why, in order to let him increase his understanding of high-tech industries, and then find ways to guide Qilu's economic transformation.

As a result, he has been back to Qilu for a year and a half. Except for some slogans and some actions to attract investment, the other things are really not very good. The atmosphere is conservative, such as the lack of scientific and educational resources in Qilu and so on.

But these are not reasons. He is the governor. He has the responsibility to lead Qilu's economy to break through the bottleneck. He also has the responsibility to do some difficult and pioneering work.Sun Zujie can accept Cheng Guang's failure, but he must not accept that he does not do anything. As a cadre of Sun Zujie, he must have this consciousness.

So Sun Zujie lectured unceremoniously, leaving Qilu's main leaders who looked at each other in blank dismay, turned around and went to the Jeju Military Region for inspection, and received the generals above the division of the military region.

Sun Zujie continued to give a speech on style rectification and the reform of the Privy Council system. He asked the entire military region to draw a clear line from corrupt elements like Qian Guoyao, take the initiative to look in the mirror, check problems, find gaps, and prescribe the right medicine to change the style of work, so as to pave the way for the upcoming reform of the entire army. prepare for.

But what he didn't expect was that on the night before he left Jeju, all the members of the Qilu provincial party committee and the provincial government team took the initiative to find Sun Zujie again, apologized for some work deficiencies, and said that they would definitely find a way to solve the economic problems of Qilu. Existing problems, at the same time, please ask Sun Zujie to give Qi Lu a pulse on how to develop.

Who promoted this action, Sun Zujie didn't know, but he knew very well that doing so was in line with the characteristics of Qilu officials. Obeying orders, working hard, and wholeheartedly implementing the decisions of superiors are the distinctive characteristics of Qilu officials, but when Xia Guo developed to today , When it is necessary to pay more attention to creation and talents, the shortcomings of Qilu-style cadres will be exposed.

In terms of ideology, Qilu people are too conservative, like to be an official, and regard the achievements of being an official as a sign of success; compared with southerners, Qilu people prefer to engage in traditional industries, and look down on emerging industries such as the Internet. , the ability to innovate appears to be lacking.

Sun Zujie told them his own ideas, such as reducing investment in traditional industries, increasing support for emerging industries, improving the soft environment for entrepreneurship, and so on.

At present, various problems in Qilu, such as insufficient higher education, such as the ideological problem of official standard, such as how to create a soft environment for innovation and entrepreneurship, etc., in Sun Zujie's view, can all be changed.

Since the reform and opening up, it has been a process of constant change. Since Qilu people can adapt, they have been ranked in the top three, which shows that they do not lack the courage to change.

In the end, he gave a very simple example. In some places in Qilu, women are not allowed to sit on the table while eating. This reflects the traditional side of Qilu, but this tradition emphasizes innovation and change in today's era It seemed a little hesitant.

The Internet information industry that is developing faster and faster is almost absent in Qilu. The reason is that Qilu society is too real, unable to accept the huge losses in the initial stage of the Internet industry, and unable to accept the social culture required for the development of these industries.

The big flicker of Fubao.com went back and forth to many places, and he couldn't gain a foothold in Yan, and he couldn't gain a foothold in East China Sea. It's not without reason that he finally gained a foothold in Hangzhou, where the atmosphere is relatively relaxed.

Therefore, Sun Zujie believes that if Qilu wants to break through the current bottleneck and continue to develop, it must make some changes in thinking, learn to tolerate some aliens, and create room for these aliens to develop.

This is not only in the corporate field, but also in the official world. Don't overwhelm people at the top of the official rank, and focus on making fuss around the orders of the superiors.

During his investigation, where did he see and what did he see? Several potted plants were almost the same. How could the innovative industry develop if they were all the same?

Of course, such a big change of thought, Qi Lu will definitely not be able to do it in a short time, so what should we do in a short time?It is absolutely possible to learn from Germany and concentrate on strengthening traditional industries and improving technological content.

For example, Qilu's aluminum industry is already very large, so instead of focusing on quantity, focus on quality and try to improve the level of products.

The market demand for primary products such as aluminum liquid, aluminum ingots, aluminum rods, aluminum plates, and aluminum foils is huge, so of course we must continue to maintain them, but don’t invest any more money in them. The market is so big, and expanding production capacity will only get twice the result with half the effort .

Focus on the production of mid-to-high-end products such as pistons, wheel hubs, gearbox housings, building templates, all-aluminum furniture, lightweight automobiles, ultra-high voltage cables, packaging materials, rail transit and aviation aluminum materials.

This market has huge potential, and many of them still need to be imported from developed countries. If you have money in your hands, it would be good to invest in these places and engage in import substitution.

Speaking of this, Sun Zujie took out the ballpoint pen in his hand and said with a smile, "Our country has 3000 pen-making enterprises, more than 20 employees, and an annual output of more than 400 billion ballpoint pens, but we cannot produce ballpoint pen tip steel by ourselves. , can only be imported from Japan at a high price of 12 tons.

The import volume of such nib steel is very small. It is estimated that it is only a few hundred tons or thousands of tons a year. It is a very small variety with an annual output value of only a few hundred million.None of our iron and steel companies look down on us, but if one company is successfully developed, then with the size of Xia Guo, it will soon be able to quickly occupy this small market by virtue of its scale advantage and take it all over the world.

In the industrial segment, there are many unpopular small projects like ballpoint pen nibs, which have high profit margins, but the market is small, there is no future, and it has nothing to do with the lifeline of the economy. Big consortia simply look down on them.

But comrades, this kind of unpopular small project has a huge advantage that it is relatively stable, and it can last for decades, or even hundreds of years.Most of them are small and medium-sized enterprises in foreign countries who have ancestral unique skills or are too lazy to change their careers. They will not make a fortune, but they will be safe.

If you complete a hundred of these small projects, you can arrange at least a few hundred thousand people to be employed, and earn billions or tens of billions every year. A large factory of 10 tons is much better.

The reason why developed countries are developed is that their huge enterprises are on the one hand, and more importantly, they have accumulated hundreds of years and own countless small and inconspicuous enterprises.

Qilu is a large province with a population of 9000 to [-] million. You have to keep an eye on it when it is too big, and you have to keep an eye on it when it is too small.After doing these unremarkable things well, Qilu's economy has a real foundation, and no matter what happens, there will be no big fluctuations. "

To put it bluntly, Sun Zujie asked Qilu to brag less, work more, and do some work that others are unwilling to do. This looks inconspicuous, but if he does too much, Qilu's economy will be supported.

At this time, Xia Guo was too impetuous from top to bottom, always keeping his eyes on each big project, why bother, to make a small thing well, make it the number one in the country, the number one in the world, and be safe. Isn't it good to make money?

The reason why the task was handed over to Qilu is because Qilu cadres are obedient. He scolded him yesterday, but he came here today and listened to his opinions sincerely. Such a good comrade, how can he do it if he doesn’t teach him well? ?

Sun Zujie continued to hold the ballpoint pen and said, "Let's continue to talk about the issue of the nib steel. This kind of nib steel requires high processing precision and represents the world's top technology. If this technology is conquered, other industrial products with similar precision can also use it. technology to process.

This is the problem of technology extension. Maybe you inadvertently find that a certain high-end component that cannot be produced in our country can be produced suddenly in the process of overcoming it. This is not surprising. Many major breakthroughs come from in such inadvertent.

Let me talk about why the nib steel technology comes from Switzerland, not the United States or other countries. The reason is very simple. The pillar industry of Switzerland is watches, and the watch industry summarizes precision metal parts processing technology as the main technology.

In other words, this is not an independent industrial technology, but a complete set of industrial chains. If you conquer this technology and try to expand horizontally, you can process ballpoint pen ball seats today, tourbillons tomorrow, and watches the day after tomorrow. , snatching jobs in Switzerland.

This means that other industrial parts can also be processed. Each industrial part means a manufacturing chain from raw materials to finished products, which means a large number of industrial jobs.

At the same time, this also verified an industrial methodology and exercised industrial capabilities.The experience accumulated in this kind of exploration process is very valuable, not only technology, but also ability. Every time we go, we will cultivate more talents, accumulate more experience, discover more details, and improve our ability virtually. industrial strength.

Ability is accumulated bit by bit, and it is an intangible asset. When we evaluate foreign industrial technology, we will say that it is accumulated over time, and we are also accumulating in doing so.

Comrades, globalization is a concept, not inevitable, not the only choice. For Xia Guo, with such a large volume, if he wants to survive, he must desperately create material materials and jobs.

We are not American imperialism, which can divide labor globally, because they have vast land, abundant resources, fertile land and sparse population, and the unemployed can also get food. domestic population.

We are like dinosaurs in ancient times, with many people and few food. Only by not letting go of any opportunity can we live in Switzerland and Sweden instead of India and Iraq. "

After Sun Zujie finished speaking, Qilu's senior executives applauded in unison. Just now, Sun Zujie gave the example of ballpoint pen nib steel, which really helped them illuminate the direction of industrial upgrading.Compared with those empty-headed things, Qilu has achieved industrial upgrading after doing this kind of real thing. It is very simple and practical, as long as you have the patience to do it.

And this is precisely the characteristic of Qilu people, they are willing to do things, not to mention that the first and second in the province are all from the province, of course they are willing to do some practical things, so that when they retire, they can also give to the fellow villagers explain.

But how to do it, they have been staring at each other, Cheng Guang learned from Shennan, the way he learned looks good, but no one knows if it will work in Qilu.

Now it’s all right, let’s grit our teeth and gnaw at these hard bones, and then extend vertically up and down, left and right, and make Qilu’s well-established industries stronger. Although it is difficult to do this well, at least the direction is clear and we will not be confused.

When saying goodbye and leaving, Shang Changjian discussed with Cheng Guang, "Governor, according to what Mr. Sun said, we should put more effort into these small products, which is much more than those vain things. As soon as you hear it, you can understand that money will not be wasted.
