Chapter 265 Increase production again

When Wang Yongqing arrived in mainland China, he must have gone to the capital. The targets of his negotiations were all national leaders and had no relationship with Sucheng.

Su Cheng could not affect the big shots, so he could only work hard on Wang Sheng and asked: "Have Formosa Plastic's goal changed?"

This sentence is full of questions, but insiders understand that Formosa Plastics' previous goal was to provide good policies in the mainland to ensure low costs and not to quickly put into production. By the way, it prompted the Taiwan government to pass the proposal of the Sixth Light.

It is indeed not easy to gain domestic recognition for such a goal. Formosa Plastics is actually taking advantage of the blockade of mainland China by Western countries, waiting for opportunities to earn rare benefits in normal times. However, from another perspective, the mainland has the intention of using Formosa Plastics. During this lockdown period, there is an investment intention of US$7 billion, which can also show the trust of business owners in the mainland.

The air-to-air between the two sides is not only political, except for the verbal slander. The Sucheng Committee is really unreasonable. From his personal point of view, the implementation of the Haicang plan is still very good. The 700,000 tons of ethylene and a 10 million oil refinery are a significant impact on the domestic petrochemical industry, both in public and private.

However, it would be boring to delay the base too late. The $7 billion in 1990 was rare, and 1995 might still be rare, but it would be just ordinary in 2000. At that time, the wealthy and powerful Sinopec and PetroChina probably would not let Formosa Plastics lead such a large project, and they would build a petrochemical base. However, for such a large project, it is not uncommon to waste four or five years of time with the slowness of Formosa Plastics. There are also various downstream factories from Taiwan, which are subject to changes in Taiwan's political situation, and will definitely be slow.

Historically, Formosa Plastics gave up the Haicang Plan two years later. It specialized in Six Light, and it was not started in 1999. The Six Light Plan was proposed in 1973, 26 years apart.

A factory has been stamped with steel seals for 20 years. For preparations, even Su Cheng can only admire this tenacity and ambition. If you admire the past, you have to worry. In terms of experience, Wang Yongqing can wait for the six lights of 20 years, but how can he not wait for the 20-year Haicang plan?

If he hadn't been older, Formosa Plastics might have really landed on the mainland. At that time, it might not have been 700,000 tons of ethylene, but 1.4 million tons.

Sucheng's goal based on "Prophet" is simple and clear, but it is difficult for Wang Sheng and Wang Keling to understand.

Wang Sheng hesitated for a moment and replied: "I don't know the specific situation. I think it's just a routine meeting."

There are not many people who can meet with the national leaders on a routine basis. Su Cheng was a little disappointed and said, "So, has the goal still not changed?"

"How can you not consider such a major investment?" Wang Keling stood up and said, "We must fully consider various risks."

"Do you agree to take your time?" Su Cheng was not surprised by Wang Keling's attitude, he just asked very ordinary questions.

Wang Keling snorted and said, "The market economy has its own rules. Of course, we have to take our time to negotiate with both sides."

Su Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid you'll take your time and end up spending nothing."

"What's the meaning?"

"China's economy is developing very fast. You are investing 7 billion now. The central government is very happy, but you are not satisfied and want better treatment. In a few years, you will invest 7 billion, and you will probably be just happy. At that time, it will not be easy to maintain the current treatment. In a few years, US$7 billion may only be able to receive such reception at the provincial level." Su Cheng said the truth, but it puzzled the people around him.

Wang Keling laughed twice: "Brave. That's $7 billion. How much does the mainland invest in a year?"

“The economy is developing.”

Wang Keling expressed disbelief.

Sucheng has no choice. China's economic growth has maintained a growth rate of more than 8% per year. No country or individual believes that China can maintain a rapid growth rate of more than 8% for 20 consecutive years. The Chinese themselves do not believe it.

The country that Western countries like to compare with China is India, whose GDP growth is about 4% annually, and its starting base is better than China. Therefore, when China released an increase of 8% or 9% of GDP, there were constant doubts. However, after 10 years and 20 years of development, the gap between China and India has widened, but as Su Cheng said, by 2010, how could the Chinese central government take a bow because of a US$7 billion investment?

Before 1992, China was the last opportunity for Formosa Plastics to invest in large amounts. If they make steady progress, they will not only make large profits and political reputation, but also expand their production and sales networks to the mainland. At the same time, China can also use Formosa Plastics to develop its own petrochemical industry.

However, after this node, good things will no longer happen.

Looking at Wang Keling's expression, Su Cheng was a little funny and stingy. Then he thought, he was worried about it here, so he said something to a young boy, shook his hand and said goodbye.

Wang Sheng sent them out. After returning, Wang Keling also complained: "What's the point of saying such a prodigal boy? You've sent them out."

Wang Shengben didn't want to speak, but looked at his attitude and thought, "Keling, do you remember the purpose of the group building Rongda factory?"

"It means we are negotiating sincerely." Wang Keling breathed and said, "In this way, we will be under even greater pressure on the island. If I ask me, I will not build this factory."

"The construction of the Rongda factory has put a lot of pressure on us on the island, but it can reduce our pressure on the mainland and prompt the agreement to be signed as soon as possible. Do you know why our pressure on the mainland has increased?"

"Dahua Petrochemical." Wang Keling became the head of the factory, so how could he not understand the inside story?

Without Wang Sheng talking, Wang Keling thought deeply and said for a while: "So, is this young boy Su Cheng the one who is trying to speed up?"

"That's right, it's through methanol tanks, the 120,000 tons will be expanded to 200,000 tons, and it will be expanded to 500,000 tons. If we don't care, it's really hard to say whether the Haicang base will be occupied by him." Wang Sheng was not talking casually. For example, the Taiwan Six Light Plan has been counted as 17 years in 1990 and has not started construction. If Dahua increases its production at a rate of 120,000 tons per year, it will have 1.2 million tons in 10 years. In Southeast Asia, this can support the production of hundreds of small factories, and it is not impossible to occupy the land allocated by the Haicang Plan.

Wang Keling didn't believe it and said, "He is afraid he doesn't have the ability."

Wang Sheng smiled bitterly. What did you say about this?

The two were speechless. After a while, Wang Keling said with a little regret: "If it weren't for the increase in methanol prices, Dahua Petrochemical's funds would probably have problems. It would be better if it were half a year earlier or a year later, so they would just earn a underwriting contract and stabilize the rear."

The underwriting contract was negotiated by Wang Sheng, and with the approval of the board of directors, it was taken out immediately. Wang Sheng said shyly and angrily: "There are oil fields under Dahua's name, so how can cash run out?"

"Don't they still have a money-spending Dahua Gas Company? Besides, the United Nations has passed a resolution to sanction Iraq. After the war begins, it is still a big deal to transport the UAE oil. When Iraq attacks Kuwait, the announcement was brought with it." Wang Keling did come back from studying abroad, not from the bar, and he knows a lot about the relationship issues.

Although Wang Sheng was a king's subordinate branch, he was impatient and said directly: "Dahua rented an oil pipeline from the UAE and transferred crude oil to Saudi Arabia for transportation."

"Oh? I have some skills." Wang Keling twisted his chin. This trick was obviously learned from his parents. He was too young and a little inappropriate.

Wang Sheng left the office speechlessly and let Wang Keling go to play alone. The next day, he didn't want to go to work, so he covered himself in the quilt for a long time, and finally went to Rongda Factory.

Even if it is a factory that installs a storefront, it must be installed seriously.

When he arrived at the office, Wang Keling looked at the newspaper rarely.

Wang Sheng was a little surprised, so he took a newspaper casually and opened it to read it.

The front page of the local newspaper has a large simplified Chinese title: Dahua Petrochemical Group announced that it would invest another US$40 million to install 80,000 tons of methanol equipment, increasing the output to 300,000 tons per year.

Wang Sheng was not surprised that Su Cheng had such an action, he just browsed it quickly.

"You saw it." At some point, Wang Keling stood behind him.

Wang Sheng nodded and said, "I just knew that Su Cheng was worried. It seemed that the news was released yesterday."

"I just announced the investment, and there was neither equipment nor production. I don't know why so many people praised his stinky feet."

Wang Sheng raised his head strangely and thought to himself: Haven’t we just announced one investment news, and countless people will receive it?

Wang Keling was unaware of anything, vented a few words, and lowered his head and said, "The Chairman asked me to invite Su Cheng to Beijing."

"Chairman?"

"I probably want to talk about it."

"300,000 tons of methanol are indeed a lot. He chose gas head methanol, which has high unit price and has natural gas that is underwritten. The price is cheap and the quantity is large."

"It makes him cheaper, and the price of natural gas will rise in the war."

"Fortunately, there are not much increase." Wang Sheng could only comfort himself like this.

Wang Keling sat down and said, "Okay, if grandpa comes forward, no matter which transaction method is used, it will be smoothed out, so as not to make trouble for us here. Mr. Wang, go and invite Su Cheng, the relationship between you two seems to be good."

"I also negotiated the 4 million tons of crude oil contract with Dahua," Wang Sheng said with a note. The petrochemical industry's desire for crude oil is almost unlimited, and being able to sign a long-term crude oil contract is considered a meritorious service. Moreover, the money lent to Formosa Plastics to Sucheng was also paid interest. Judging from the results, the contract that Wang Sheng negotiated was impeccable.
