Chapter 767: Bow and admit your mistake (third update)

“We must consider future generations, not just our own interests, but sustainable development.” In a certain bureau, Luo Jinquan was like a primary school student, listening to the instructions of the uniformed man in front of him.

"We want to leave blue skies, white clouds, green mountains and green waters to future generations. Look at your yellow steel. Your chimneys are emitting black smoke all year round. How much of the atmosphere will they pollute? Your drainage pipes are discharging sewage all year round. Your steel Near the factory, dozens of acres of crop land are completely abandoned, dozens of acres!" The man in uniform said earnestly: "How much less food has been grown in these crop fields? We are a country with a large population, and there are still many people in our country who have no food to eat. How dare you? Such good crops have been polluted!"

"How much is the fine? We'll pay it," Luo Jinquan said.

"Penalty? What's the use of fines? Fines can make the air better? Fines can help crop fields recover? The previous one was already investigated and punished because he only knew about fines and never knew how to urge corrections!"

“Well, well, let’s change it, we will definitely change it, and we will listen to your instructions.” Luo Jinquan nodded and bowed.

“This can’t just be words, it must be implemented into actions.” The man in uniform continued: “You need to purchase sewage treatment equipment to ensure that the water flowing out is clean.”

 “Okay, okay, let’s purchase.”

“I will check at any time. When the time comes, let’s get a cup of sewage discharged from your factory, and you all have to drink it for me. The water from the sewage treatment must reach the level of drinking water.”

 Luo Jinquan’s expression changed.

In the past few years, the country has indeed been focusing on environmental protection. However, it was over after paying a fine, and no one took it seriously. Who would have thought that it would suddenly happen now?

 The sewage they discharge contains a lot of harmful substances. Drink it? Even if I use this thing to wash my face, I'm afraid it will burn my face.

How much does it cost to have sewage treatment equipment of this level?

“Excuse me, how much does such a device cost?”

"Not much, five million is enough." The man in uniform continued: "The next problem is the smoke. This problem is more complicated. We need to deal with the dust, as well as harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide..."

Luo Jinquan could no longer listen, his mind was buzzing.

 It’s over, it’s all over!

Had I known it earlier, I wouldn’t have followed Zhao Mangui around and just obeyed the China Steel Association. Wouldn’t it be better? Although unified procurement will result in the loss of autonomy, at least they can still operate. Now, it is impossible for them to even operate!

Five million for sewage purification equipment and eight million for exhaust gas treatment equipment. In the past, they would have gritted their teeth and might have been able to buy it. After all, it was for business purposes. But now, they have spent everything they can on hand to buy iron ore. Stone! So, they have no money at all now!

 One million is already the maximum. If you pay more, you won’t be able to get a penny out. Luo Jinquan didn't know how he got out, but when he went out, he found that the scene in front of him was shaking and the whole world began to turn black.

 38 small and medium-sized steel mills, all suspended!

Cao Steel's situation is the most special. All the main equipment of the entire steelmaking plant has been scrapped. This steelmaking plant is completely finished. Other steelmaking plants need to be rectified and spend a lot of money to solve the problem. However, they have The money has been used up.

Everyone knows that this is the consequence of their betrayal of the Mingzhou Group. They could have got on the bus together, but unfortunately they chose to jump out of the bus, but they failed to jump well and fell off.

 What to do next?

When Luo Jinquan woke up, he found himself in the hospital, and there was a man standing at the door of the ward smoking.

 “Lao Zhang?” Luo Jinquan shouted.

The other party turned around, and sure enough, it was Zhang Ming, the person in charge of a small steel plant he knew, one of their 38 steel plants.

“Lao Luo, are you awake?” Zhang Ming threw the cigarette **** to the ground and stamped on it hard.

 “Something happened to your factory too?”

"yes."

 “Where is Lao Zhao?”

"Old Zhao? Old Zhao has already run away. He has been prepared for it for a long time. His wife and children are abroad, and a lot of property has been transferred abroad. When something like this happens, he will simply step aside and run away!" Ming said: "It's good for him. He made arrangements in advance. What about us? We don't have overseas assets. To be honest, I have been thinking about whether to jump from the blast furnace for the past few days and feel relaxed. But, I am going to jump. My wife and children at home must not be bullied by creditors!"

Luo Jinquan also suddenly became frustrated.

 Yeah, what should we do in this situation now?

The factory is in complete chaos. I don’t know how many people will come looking for trouble. The most direct way is to jump down and it will be over. But if I jump down, what will my family do?

 Zhao Mangui has done harm to the big guy!

“You and Lao Zhao were the leaders at the beginning. Now, Lao Zhao has run away and everyone is waiting for you to make up your mind. We still have to stick together, but what to do next is really futile.”

Zhao Mangui ran away, and they still have 37 steel plants left. What should they do with these steel plants?

 Everyone is in a state of hesitation, waiting for the leader.

"What else can we do?" Luo Jinquan said: "In front of the Mingzhou Group, we are just chickens, ready to be slaughtered. Our only way now is to go to others to admit our mistakes and ask Mr. Qin to be magnanimous and let us go. "

"That's right, the idea was all Zhao Mangui's. Every injustice has its owner, so let Mr. Qin go find trouble with Zhao Mangui. We were just fooled by Zhao Mangui. We have so many steel plants, and there are so many people waiting to eat. , Mr. Qin must leave us a way to survive, and cannot force us to die." Zhang Ming nodded.

Luo Jinquan sat up and wanted to get out of bed. Only then did he realize that there was still an infusion needle inserted in his hand. So he pulled hard with his hand and pulled the needle out directly, with a lot of blood still attached. Pressing the needle with his hand: "Let's go, let's go now."

 They can't wait any longer and must solve this imminent big trouble!

 A group of leaders of small and medium-sized steel plants embarked on the road south to Mingzhou. However, when they arrived in Mingzhou after traveling thousands of miles, they did not see Mr. Qin at all.

"Mr. Qin is not here." Qin Baoshan, who has almost become a mascot, received these people: "Haven't you heard? Mr. Qin has been busy with iron ore during this period. He will go first. We went to Da Mao to negotiate the purchase of iron ore, and then went to the grassland country to negotiate the mining of their iron ore."

Qin Baoshan looked at these people with a very complicated mood: "Actually, if it was just for our Mingzhou Iron and Steel Plant, he wouldn't have to run around at all. Our existing iron ore stock in Mingzhou can produce five to ten In 2016, we were still a state-owned mine in China. If we mine all the iron ore for our own use, we can continue to supply it. He is running like this not for our Mingzhou Steel Plant, but for our entire steel industry and our country! Each of them. For the sake of war, if you go out to find iron ore suppliers to buy, you will be slaughtered by others. Only by uniting together can you have the right to say the price of iron ore, you guys!"

Qin Baoshan’s last sigh was full of helplessness as he hated iron but failed to make steel. The heads of small and medium-sized steel plants present all lowered their heads in shame.

“We know we were wrong, and we want to ask for Mr. Qin’s forgiveness.”

"Then you are looking for the wrong person. Mr. Qin is doing this not for our Mingzhou Steel Plant, but for our entire country. If you are looking for it, you are also looking for the China Iron and Steel Association." Qin Baoshan said: "People, always It’s easy to be blinded by your own immediate interests and make mistakes. That’s okay. If you know your mistakes, you can correct them. That’s a good boy. By the way, have you figured out how to correct your mistakes?”

 How can I correct myself and seek Mr. Qin’s forgiveness?

What did Luo Jinquan think of: "This time we signed a purchase agreement for 50 million tons of iron ore with Vale. We will hand over these agreements to the China Iron and Steel Association to distribute the iron ore uniformly!"

“That’s right, we won’t fight on our own anymore! The purchase price of this iron ore may be a bit high, and we don’t want the deposit. Let’s take it as an admission of our mistake.”

The whole thing was caused by the collective procurement of the China Iron and Steel Association. They repented and handed over the order to the China Iron and Steel Association for unified distribution, and that was it.

Qin Baoshan nodded: "Well, then you can go."

Looking at the backs of everyone leaving, Qin Baoshan sighed with emotion. This crisis was resolved in this way. Not only did he not suffer any losses, he also received an order for 50 million tons of iron ore. The next contest with BHP Company will be even more difficult. Relaxed!

 Kangaroo Country, BHP headquarters.

"Damn it, that Mr. Qin is actually playing tricks!" Ander said angrily: "He scared everyone else in this way!"

 Their original plan was to divide the steel companies in the East, let them fight on their own, and make the China Steel Association a joke. What now? Now they are a joke!

 What to do next?

If the Orientals work together as one, they will have no other choice!

"These 38 small and medium-sized steel companies united and signed an import agreement for 50 million tons of Changxie ore from Vale." A subordinate said: "Now, this batch of iron ore has also fallen into the hands of the China Iron and Steel Association. In this way, they will have stronger capital to fight against us!"

As Dongfang holds more and more cards, BHP's situation will become increasingly difficult. Now, what should they do? Should you agree with Dongfang's arrangement, negotiate with the China Iron and Steel Association from now on, and let the other party have the right to speak, or should you continue to fight, or even take the initiative to lay off employees?

This is really a difficult choice.

At this moment, Wayne walked in.

"Mr. Wayne, do you have any good ideas? We can't stand it now." Ander got straight to the point: "We are on the front line, but now, we have got nothing!"

 “We have already taken action,” Wayne said.

"Action? How did you take action?" Ender was very excited. If the other party joined in, it would be more convenient for his side.

"We sent people to kill that Zhao Mangui, and then announced to the outside world that it was the Mingzhou Group who did it. They have grown into a deformed monster. They are now relying on the power in their hands to arbitrarily squeeze other colleagues."

What?

Ender's eyes widened. Will this work? This makes no sense at all. Guys like Zhao Mangui have become abandoned, and his time has passed!

 What's the use of getting rid of him? Throw dirty water on Mingzhou Group?

Over the years, Zhao Mangui made a lot of money. He first sent his son out to study at a third-rate pheasant university, and then he sent his wife out to buy a family property in Europe.

When an accident occurred in the country, Zhao Mangui ran away that night. He had to be fast because he was afraid that he would not be able to escape if he was slow.

He would never know that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him, and that if he could run out, it was because someone deliberately let the water go.

At this time, he stood at the window of his new home, looking at the white-skinned foreigners outside, feeling lucky in his heart. Thanks to his preparations in advance! After hard work, I finally came to the Western world and lived the life I wanted to live.

  I don’t care about the chaotic stalls in the country! Let other people have the headache.

　　咚咚!

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Zhao Mangui thought it was his wife and son who had returned. Without thinking, he ran to open the door. When the door was opened, a foreigner appeared outside.

"What's your business?"

 “Zhao Mangui?” the other party said in broken Chinese.

"it's me."

Seeing Zhao Mangui nod, the look in the other person's eyes instantly became murderous. Then, the cold light in his hand flashed and stabbed Zhao Mangui in the abdomen. Then, he pulled it out and struck it a second time, a third time...

Zhao Mangui covered his stomach in pain and slowly fell down. Blood and intestines were constantly flowing out. He knew that he was about to die. At this time, countless questions emerged in his mind, who, To assassinate yourself? Mingzhou Group? Isn't Mr. Qin too cruel?

The other party knocked down Zhao Mangui quickly and neatly. Just as he was about to leave, he discovered that there was an Oriental man behind him. He was not tall, but he exuded a murderous aura.

“Who sent you? Do you want to blame the Mingzhou Group? The process of your murder has been recorded. Now, will you be arrested without mercy, or..."

The killer turned around and ran away, and a fight began.

 East.

"This is the second meeting held since the establishment of the China Iron and Steel Association." The host sat on it and looked at the people below: "The main thing is that there are a few things to announce. You may or may not be aware of these things. It is necessary to let everyone know so that no one will retreat in their hearts and even make some wrong choices."

"The first thing is about the import channels for iron ore. We have two more channels. Both Damao and the Prairie Country will provide us with iron ore. At present, the quantity provided is not very large. Damao can provide it every year. Ten million tons. After the iron ore in the grassland country is mined, this number will probably be maintained. However, Mingzhou Group has negotiated a crude steel import agreement with Damao, and they will import ten million tons from Damao every year. For crude steel, this is equivalent to obtaining an import quantity of more than 20 million tons, which means that we have increased the import volume of iron ore by 40 million tons."

Some people started talking immediately below.

 In this way, even if we do not import iron ore from Kangaroo Country, we can still maintain production for ten to eight years!

yes! With iron ore in stock, new import channels, and the 50 million tons negotiated by small and medium-sized steel mills this time, the gap is not much!

"Next, if BHP wants to continue exporting iron ore to us, it will have to take the initiative to sell it door-to-door. Our current idea is to lower the price of iron ore to less than fifty US dollars per ton. If the other party's price exceeds this Price, then we won’t consider it.”

 This is the confidence!

Now, you no longer need to go to your door to find the BHP company. You have to let them come to your door to actively promote the product. They need to give a reasonable price, otherwise they will not accept it!

“Now, these contents are all inside information and our trump card. If there are still people who take the risk and leak the contents of the meeting, then the people who have been arrested will be role models!”

In fact, it doesn't matter even if it is leaked, so that BHP company can be mentally prepared. However, after a series of actions, it is estimated that no one who is short-sighted will dare to do this. If you dare to leak the secret, haha, wait and see. Go to jail for the rest of your life!

"Besides, betraying the motherland will not end well. Now it is being used by foreigners. When it is no longer useful, do you know what the consequences will be?" The host continued: "Now, let me show you a video."

 “Zhao Mangui?”

 When a human figure appears on the screen, everyone recognizes it immediately.

 It is Zhao Mangui who has gone abroad.

 Zhao Mangui opened the door, and there was a foreigner standing outside. The foreigner asked Zhao Mangui, and then took out the guy.

“How could this happen?” Luo Jinquan asked in surprise. He was most familiar with Zhao Mangui. Unexpectedly, the whole incident was not caused by Zhao Mangui alone, but someone behind the scenes. He had already gone abroad and was actually being hunted?

"For foreigners, the last use value of Zhao Mangui is to die and then accuse the Mingzhou Group of committing the crime and pouring dirty water on the Mingzhou Group." The host said: "Fortunately, we were prepared and sent the troops in advance. People were under surveillance, and the murderer was caught, and Zhao Mangui was sent to the hospital. However, he is still being rescued. I don’t know if he can be saved. Everyone, this is the price of working for foreigners!"

 Everyone was silent.

"Betraying the motherland, betraying compatriots, and trying to integrate into Western society are the most stupid things. We envy the advancement of the West, so we should use our own hands to build our motherland to be as advanced and as prosperous as the West. This is not good "The host said: "If anyone wants to follow in Zhao Mangui's footsteps, then just wait for the same end!"

This is a warning and a deterrent. Zhao Mangui thinks that everything will be fine after leaving the motherland? Still under supervision!

 Those who betray the motherland will not end well!

"Then, let's talk about the second matter. Regarding the issue of thirty-eight small and medium-sized steelmaking companies betraying the China Steel Association and privately signing a long-term mining agreement with Vale." The host said: "These small and medium-sized steelmaking companies Enterprises have all been deprived of the right to import and export. They sign the orders and submit them to the China Iron and Steel Association. Of course, if there are objections, you can raise them now. We are democratic."

Who dares to mention it? Do you still want to start work?

Luo Jinquan stood up and took the lead in expressing his position: "We support all the decisions of the China Iron and Steel Association. We will bear responsibility for the mistakes we make. From now on, we will definitely unite around the China Iron and Steel Association and resolutely support all the opinions of the China Iron and Steel Association. We are proud of the last time I apologize to the China Steel Association and all colleagues present for the wrong things I have done, we have held you back."

"Well, I don't blame you for what happened this time. You were deceived by Zhao Mangui. You must pay attention in the future and be wary of people with ulterior motives around you. They may have been bribed and they already have a way out, but what about you? ?” The host said: “It’s just this once, and it won’t be the same next time. If there is a next time, you will lose the right to use imported iron ore forever.”

Speaking of iron ore, it is actually found in China, and its reserves are still ranked fourth in the world, second only to Kangaroo Country, Football Country and Damao.

However, the grade of domestic iron ore is too low. Compared with the 50% or 60% grade of imported iron ore, our own is only more than 30%. In other words, what we import is rich iron ore, while what we mine is poor. Iron ore, in this way, it is self-evident which type of iron ore is more useful.

Generally speaking, domestic steel plants use a mixture of imported and self-produced steel. If it cannot be imported and can only be used by itself, the cost of smelting will be higher, and the quality of the steel produced may not be good. This is absolutely inappropriate.

At the same time as the China Iron and Steel Association was meeting, Ander was also complaining at BHP Company.

"Mr. Wayne, your plan didn't work at all. Every step you took was planned by the Orientals." Ander said: "Now, we have no choice, either to lay off employees or go to the Orientals to visit us." Promote iron ore!”

Over the years, their iron ore sales have increased year by year, and their mining capabilities have also continued to improve. If the mining volume is suddenly reduced, it means that their company's profits will drop significantly and they will not be able to maintain their expenses. They have hired Many people have purchased a lot of mining machines and have a large number of transport fleets. If these are stopped, the losses will be huge!

 They can only bow their heads.

“Don’t worry, we are about to open the second battlefield.”

 “The second battlefield?”

“That’s right, we manipulated the price of oil to sell Da Mao’s oil at a loss. Now, we want to manipulate the price of chips, lower the price of chips, and make SMIC bankrupt!”

Ander was a little confused, what does this have to do with us?

Even if you let SMIC go bankrupt, Mingzhou Group will probably have to leave this industry. Their main business is still shipbuilding, which is heavy industry.

"You probably don't know that many steel companies in the East are operating across industries. Their largest Shougang is engaged in chips and is currently producing 64 MB chips. We will make them lose everything, and they will know about our It’s awesome, and then it obeys us obediently.”
