Chapter 173: Willows and Flowers Bright Another Village
Wang Sheng drank two glasses of wine and said with arms around Su Cheng: "This big plan is very powerful. But I can't tell you now."
He was unclear, but Su Cheng turned his slightly slow mind and calculated according to time, it was easy to think of the word "Hai*cang Plan".
In the second half of this year, Formosa Plastics Group will secretly propose a largest investment plan in Chinese history to Beijing. It will be 7 billion US dollars to build a petrochemical factory with an annual refining of 10 million tons and 700,000 tons of ethylene, and provide its own power plants, ocean and inland transport fleets, and all products are supplied to the international market.
Based on this idea, Formosa Plastics put forward multiple requirements. They asked the mainland to provide a certain amount of crude oil, land available for construction of factories, and a certain amount of funds...
To this end, the central leaders drew up 15,000 hectares of land in Haicang, Xiamen, with a stroke of their pen... that is, 1.5 million mu of land.
However, after three years of negotiations and preparation, the Taiwanese authorities stopped the plan at the last moment, citing huge losses to Taiwan’s politics and economy.
Su Cheng pretended to be confused by drinking and laughed: "What do you want me to do if you can't tell me this big plan?"
Wang Sheng didn't know that he had seen through it and said in a concealed manner: "Because it is a petrochemical project, we need to stabilize and cheap crude oil and want to sign a long-term contract with your Setan Oilfield."
"4 million tons are not enough?" This is the amount promised by Sucheng for the loan.
Wang Shengyong said very quickly: "That is definitely not enough. We can talk about the specific number later, but you know, it's enough to be a large number."
He is also playing maze, but Su Cheng knew that this plan consumes more than 30 million tons of crude oil every year. In addition to the Setan Oilfield, Formosa Plastics will also order oil from other crude oil producers.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Wang Sheng continued: "We can add your methanol project to this plan. The income is controlled by yourself. We provide cheap supporting services, cheap land, and cheap construction costs. Government public relations can also be packaged. What do you think?"
Su Cheng had been very interested for a long time, but he pretended not to understand the project and said, "It sounds pretty good. However, including government public relations and other aspects. You are all about it yourself and you will give it to me. It's too advantageous, right?"
Sucheng realized that Formosa Plastics might have transferred the mainland's requirement to provide a certain amount of crude oil to itself or shared the burden to itself. After all, once mass production is made, it will provide 10 to 20 million tons of crude oil every year.
Wang Sheng filled the cups with the two and said with a smile: "If you know the scale of our plan, you won't think so. What do you think about this? Our supporting power plant will buy Dahua Industrial's natural gas as fuel. Other raw materials should also use natural gas as much as possible. In this way, we can increase the consumption of 4 million tons of natural gas from crude oil to 6 million tons. This is the minimum quantity."
"This is not bad." Su Cheng played with the wine glass with his little finger and began to think about the pros and cons.
The Hai*cang Project was once called "Project 1139" and "Project 901" in the mainland, and was a project that the big boss personally paid attention to. Its failure was the political decision of the Lee Teng-hui government in Taiwan, and its economic performance was beyond doubt. If it succeeded, it could bring a series of industrial bonuses and could also drive a large number of downstream Taiwanese petrochemical companies to invest and set up factories together...
According to Formosa Plastics' plan, after they are at the petrochemical base, they will also transform into the automobile industry and increase the automobile homemade rate in Taiwan and mainland China...
In the extremely difficult situation of foreign exchange, the Chinese government is even willing to take out US$300 million in order to retain Formosa Plastic's investment of US$7 billion as the capital of the joint venture. If this plan is successful, it will be beneficial to Dahua Industrial and will also be beneficial to China.
The problem is that as far as Sucheng knows, once Hao Bocun is still the president of Taiwan, the possibility of Hai*cang's plan to abort is more than 80%.
Therefore, the key point he needs to consider is where Dahua Industrial will go if the Haicang plan fails.
This long test lasted for a long time.
Just when Wang Sheng thought he was going to fall asleep, Su Cheng suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Since you can help me consume 2 million tons of natural gas, it's okay to sign a crude oil contract. We'll discuss the specific quantity at that time."
"We will go to the United States after the New Year." Wang Shengle seemed to win the prize. After all, he gave so little information that he could get Su Cheng's promise, which was much better than they expected.
It also made Wang Sheng look up to Su Cheng's decision. Of course, he would never know that Su Cheng knew the whole story of the "901 Project" even better than him.
...
At noon on New Year's Eve, Su Cheng returned to Jingshan Village.
Mother Xu Liya breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I'm still worried that you can't come back on time. This is the first year our ancestral hall was built, and we want to kill animals to worship our ancestors."
"I'm counting the time. By the way, are there people coming to the county again?" Su Cheng looked at the yard. Several cousins came here two days ago and decorated the place with new decorations.
Xu Liya smiled and said, "The region has sent people. I heard that when we worship our ancestors, the Animal Husbandry Bureau sent a big sheep and a very big cow."
"Where is the pig?"
"We raise New Year pigs by ourselves." Xu Liya said it very easily.
The two were talking when a knock came from outside: "Dr. Su is back?"
"Um?"
"Dong Su." Liu Fei came in with a smile and said, "Let me see my aunt. Mr. Su is exhausted from going back and forth, and try the pear water made by my wife."
Su Cheng said in surprise: "Are you married?"
"I got married after graduation." Liu Fei finished with a smile and said, "Dr. Su, our county is preparing to build a new development zone."
"Dahua Petrochemical Base may be yellow, you don't know?" Su Cheng stared at Liu Fei's eyes.
"I heard it." Liu Fei smiled in surprise: "Secretary Qian has a good relationship in Beijing. I just received the news today. However, Secretary Qian's meaning is that even if the petrochemical base cannot be used, it will be easy to introduce several companies as Director Su."
Su Cheng joked: "I think Secretary Qian is not interested in Chinese companies."
"It used to be, but it's not now." Liu Fei's subtext was that Secretary Qian used to be promoted, but now he has no position to be promoted, so he naturally cares about the companies in his jurisdiction.
But Su Cheng didn't like him, so he smiled faintly, without any response.
In the next few days, there were cumbersome ancestor worship ceremony. Sucheng and the villagers reunited. The countryside in the 1980s was very difficult, and almost everyone had to work hard to fill their stomachs. This kind of ancestor worship ceremony of killing three animals was something that no one dared to imagine. Many people from neighboring villages also came to visit on foot.
In general, this is a quiet Spring Festival, some of which are like the familiar Spring Festivals that were spent before Sucheng traveled through time.
The difference is that Formosa Plastics Group's pace is faster than before he travels through time.
In Taiwan, Formosa Plastics Group has also entered a bottleneck. As a petrochemical deep processing enterprise, almost all of the upstream raw materials of Formosa Plastics come from Taiwan CNPC, which is a state-owned oil company in Taiwan, with a monopoly of one light, two light, three light, four light and five light under construction. Formosa Plastics, as a private enterprise, hopes to build its upstream raw material base for six light, but is ignored by the authorities...
Going to mainland China to build a factory is a means for Formosa Plastic to solve this bottleneck.
Because of the private enterprise owned by Sucheng, Dahua Industrial has obtained the Setan Oilfield in the UAE, and Formosa Plastics has been greatly stimulated. From a realistic perspective, this also represents the improvement of the oil industry in mainland China and abundant resources.
So, just as Sucheng was enjoying family friendship, Wang Yongqing, the boss of Formosa Plastics Group, detoured from the United States and secretly headed to Beijing.
Before the negotiations were successful, both sides would not announce the news at all. In order to cover up, Sucheng's Dahua Group was pushed to the front desk with tacit understanding.
On the night of the sixth day of the lunar month, Wang Sheng secretly informed Su Cheng of the news. At noon of the seventh day of the lunar month, when Su Cheng was still enjoying the remaining beef, Governor Wan showed up in Jingshan Village without hesitation.
Looking at the row of black cars following him, Su Cheng felt a headache.
"Dr. Su, is Dahua Industrial going to enter Xiamen?" Governor Wan said this. The two of them stood under the locust tree in the village, and in the distance were the secretary, commissioner, and a group of county magistrates and county party secretaries of Minhuang area.
Xiamen is the location of Haicang's plan. Su Cheng blinked and said, "Dahua Industrial is indeed going to Xiamen?"
Governor Wan sighed and said, "I heard it was a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars? And it has become a national level? What a pity."
Su Cheng was always unable to lie to his face, and just nodded, but thought to himself: In fact, the scale of this plan may exceed 7 billion.
"Is there any room for recovery?" Governor Wan asked again.
Su Cheng shook his head apologetically and said, "It was not my decision alone."
"I understand that some of our comrades are not meticulous enough and have too much selfishness, which has laid the shadow of our cooperation." Governor Wan said, changing the subject and laughed: "However, I think we still have opportunities for cooperation. In addition, our provincial agencies will also carry out rectification and strive to build a service-oriented government."
Su Cheng's eyes unconsciously swept over Secretary Qian. The latter's face turned gray and he looked aged.
When Governor Wan saw that he noticed, he immediately said: "Secretary Qian of Ba County was transferred to the Provincial CPPCC to serve, and County Mayor Ru temporarily took over his position. From now on, small government treasurys such as funds must be resolutely cancelled..."
Su Cheng suddenly realized that the board of negotiations failed was actually slapped on Secretary Qian's butt.
Thinking about it, it's a bit amazing and a little bit natural.
