When Mr. Xuan said that "pipelines are not allowed to be built", no one was invincible with him.

Su Cheng and Liu Bing smiled and looked like they were harmless.

However, not being able to dominate the bull does not mean that he should do what he wants. The two of them didn't say anything, they would not make promises. If Mr. Xuan turned around and left, they continued to build oil pipelines, Sinopec would have no temper at all.

When Mr. Xuan saw that they had used yamen methods, he simply asked Liu Bing: "Who made the decision."

The King of Hell is so difficult to deal with when he sees the little ghost. He treats Su Cheng and Liu Bing as little ghosts.

Liu Bing answered as if he was not angry at all: "Mr. Wu agrees."

"Old Wu? Why did he agree?" Mr. Xuan couldn't help frowning. When the King of Hell agreed, the little ghost became even more difficult.

Liu Bing pretended not to understand and said, "There is no reason to disagree."

President Xuan glanced at Su Cheng and knew that it was his work. At this time, President Xuan felt a little difficult. He never took the private enterprise without roots and Wuping seriously, but unexpectedly, after a nap, Su Cheng actually did his work to the top, and it seemed to have a foundation.

Without saying anything, he turned around and took out a big brother in the car, found a high place, and yelled at it himself.

The big brother of the bricks in 1991 is quite useful in Beijing, Guangzhou and Beijing. In the remote areas of the mountains, it is difficult to get a signal.

Su Cheng admired him very much. He used such backward equipment to do such difficult things in such a remote place.

600 million yuan is US$100 million, which can reshape the golden body of a temple. How many things can a phone call determine?

Yang Ming, who was in front of him, was frightened by Mr. Xuan's identity. This was the full leader of a central enterprise. He said worriedly: "Dr. Su, should we contact Mr. Wu? Do we avoid remorse?"

"He scares us. It is good for CNPC to build an oil pipeline. Besides, our contracting of Haicang plan will only affect Sinopec and will also be beneficial to CNPC. Mr. Wu just needs to delay it. Why bother to regret it?"

Zhong Zhigen smiled and said, "This is called interest hedging. We are a weak company, and direct competition with a strong company is an egg to touch a stone. Only by finding ways to make the interests of two strong companies conflict with each other, can we survive."

Since the reorganization of Dahua Group, Zhong Zhigen's strategic business unit has greater power. He can also improve parallel engineering theory through the will of the group headquarters, which greatly promotes Dahua Industry and himself. The scale of Haicang Plan exceeds the current total assets of Dahua Industry. If it continues, the final construction project will require Zhong Zhigen's in-depth participation.

Yang Ming understood a little and smiled and said, "The hedging of interests is to let Sinopec and PetroChina fight against each other, right?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "They can't pinch them, but they don't have time to pinch us."

In the Haicang plan, Dahua Industrial and PetroChina have considerable common interests. In fact, in terms of their dominance, as long as Dahua does not attempt to change the rules of the game, Sinopec's enemy will be a friend of China National PetroChina, not to mention that Sucheng is also a cadre from China National PetroChina. To this day, he is also an independent director of China National PetroChina.

Having such an identity and having little actual power can show that one is close and distant. It is a bit like a distant relative who cannot be counted on. However, it is not impossible to help with the major events of marriage and funerals.

Mr. Xuan took four or five minutes to call, but it was interrupted once. He was in a bad mood and turned back and asked Su Cheng: "How is Dahua willing to give up the Haicang plan?"

Director Mao coughed twice and said, "General Xuan, Dahua's participation in the Haicang Plan will be beneficial to the country."

For the sake of the National Development and Reform Commission, Mr. Xuan changed his statement and said: "What are the plans for Dahua?"

This is going to showdown. Su Cheng thought to himself, this person is really direct. After thinking for a moment, Su Cheng simply responded: "Sino-Soyce and Dahua Industrial jointly invested in Haicang plan, and Sino-Soyce can have 51% of the equity."

This was a huge concession. Su Cheng was unwilling to give up his controlling stake in his heart, but from a rational point of view, China angered Sinopec in 1991 and then suffered a loss in the petrochemical industry. The Haicang plan really requires official in-depth participation to proceed.

However, Mr. Xuan flatly refused without thinking: "Impossible!"

Su Cheng was stunned.

Liu Bing gave him a "had been said" expression. He had told Su Cheng a long time ago that whether Sinopec makes money or loses money, Mr. Xuan will not sign an agreement to "destroy the power and humiliate the factory."

General Xuan is essentially an official rather than a businessman. He is the general manager of a central enterprise today, and he may go to a ministries or local governments to become a provincial official tomorrow. Therefore, the first thing he considers is always political issues.

Although local state-owned enterprises are selling in full swing, central enterprises are still upright high-income units. They are talking about mergers with the top 500 foreign countries to introduce technology and funds. They are wearing the hat of "utilizing foreign capital" and "market for technology", which is beautiful and comfortable, and they can indeed learn a lot of experience.

What is it like to have a joint venture with domestic private enterprises? I admit that Sinopec is not as good as domestic private enterprises? If such public opinion arises, Mr. Xuan will not have to live.

Speaking of which, what is the public opinion orientation before local state-owned enterprises go bankrupt? That is, local state-owned enterprises are not as good as township enterprises. There are 100 central enterprises in the country, and they look up and look down. If Mr. Xuan dares to prove that state-owned enterprises are not as good as private enterprises, they can drown him if they spit on their own.

Therefore, no matter what Su Cheng said, Mr. Xuan would not agree to a joint venture. Even if the central government pressed down, he had to resist until he was unable to spread his legs to make a living.

Su Cheng had Liu Bing's guidance, and finally confirmed Mr. Xuan's attitude. He tried for the last time: "So, what if Dahua Industrial gave up the oil refining project and only divided the ethylene project with Sinopec on the ethylene project?"

This is another huge concession. It is a concession based on the two plans 1993 and 1995 mentioned by Sucheng.

However, Mr. Xuan still refused. He thought for a while and said, "There is also a power station and an ocean-going fleet in the Haicang plan. I can give it to Dahua."

The power station belongs to the current Ministry of Energy and the future power group. The ocean fleet belongs to the jurisdiction of another central enterprise Ocean Airlines. All have strength that is not inferior to Sinopec. With the cordial care of **oss, Formosa Plastics can break through the domestic industry shackles. Sinopec has neither ambition to break the situation nor the corresponding resources and manpower. Therefore, it is barely a little compensation given to Sucheng.

But how could Sucheng have the strength to start a war with three central enterprises? He built his own power station today, and Dahua Industrial will have a power outage tomorrow.

Su Cheng smiled bitterly: "We want to do petrochemicals. It's not shipping or electricity."

"It's easier to bully petrochemical companies." Mr. Xuan smiled very well.

Ministerial officials in their fifties and sixties usually only have two facial features, amiable or majestic. Mr. Xuan’s current expression is a treasured hidden murderous intent.

At this point, all plans with cooperation framework went bankrupt. Sucheng also replaced it with a hidden face and said with a momentum: "Since that's the case, Dahua Industry can only go one way to the dark. Mr. Xuan and Dahua Industry have started endless competition since the day of its establishment. When I was in Shengli Oilfield, I explored Chengdao, bid for oilfields abroad, and built urban gas systems in China. None of them came smoothly. Today, I competed for Haicang Plan. If you want to participate, we welcome it."

The things that compete are very powerful, especially when it faces competition. Dahua's history determines that its institutions are suitable for competition. If they are not adapted, they will naturally die out. The problem facing energy companies always is always competition. In the United States, they must compete with Congress, parliament, trade unions and underworld, in the Middle East, they must compete with royal families, religions, bureaucrats and foreign companies, and in Africa, they must face warlords, governments, tribes, environment, diseases and foreign mercenaries. None of them is easier than domestic competition in China.

No one is purely political, violence or capital, all mixed together in complex affairs.

In recent years, Sinopec and CNPC have also faced pressure to go global. Mr. Xuan also has some understanding of Dahua Industrial's competitiveness.

At this time, he changed his comparison with Sucheng to Sinopec and Dahua, and suddenly realized that his side's advantage was not big.

Mr. Zhou and Mr. Su seem to agree with Dahua's participation in the Haicang plan. If the upper class has a clear opinion, if Sinopec uses power to suppress others and Dahua Industrial uses money to make momentum, the competition will probably be fierce.

Mr. Xuan doesn’t want a fierce battle.

What kind of reputation can a good fight between state-owned enterprises and private enterprises be? Outsiders will only say that the general manager of petrochemicals is incompetent.

At this point, Mr. Xuan hated Formosa Plastics. You should do your best to be your Liu Qing, come to Haicang to make waves, and then turn around and leave...

After resentment, he also thought of a solution and gritted his teeth and said, "If Dahua Industrial Group insists on not withdrawing, Sinopec may agree to the proposal to convert Formosa Plastics exports to domestic sales."

Liu Bing and Director Mao's expressions changed.

The PVC powder, ethylene raw materials, etc. produced in Haicang plan are all within the business scope of Sinopec. CNPC also produces some refined oil, but the main refining companies still belong to Sinopec. Therefore, when Wang Yongqing proposed that Haicang plan to convert exports to domestic sales, the biggest obstacle was Sinopec.

Although the Haicang plan may be a cover, who knows whether the feint attack will be turned into a main attack? Under normal circumstances, Sinopec will not reveal any outlets to Formosa Plastics. If the superiors want to continue the Haicang plan, they have to exchange benefits for Sinopec.

China's separation of powers means that no one can only ask for money or pay. In that case, the country will be in chaos?

In the middle of the Haicang plan, the central and local governments unconditionally supported Formosa Plastics, and only Sinopec was the possible opposition.

Mr. Xuan agreed to convert Formosa Plastics exports to domestic sales," and the biggest obstacle to negotiations at present disappeared.

This is about to overturn the table so that no one can eat.

"Dahua has withdrawn now, and the loss is not large. Otherwise, I will make appropriate suggestions at the right time." Mr. Xuan this time, not completely scaring people. He does have this ability and the impulse to do this.

Instead of letting Dahua Industrial build a Haicang Petrochemical Base, it is better to continue to hand it over to Formosa Plastics.

Director Mao coughed again and said, "Don't worry, everyone, think about it again."

At the same time, he used his eyes to signal Su Cheng to surrender.

Su Cheng's eyes flashed, not knowing what he was thinking.

Mr. Xuan changed back to the amiable template and said with a smile: "I agree with what Mr. Su said. Sinopec and Dahua competed with Haicang plan, not a stable win. But if Sinopec did not want Haicang plan, Dahua would lose steadily. If Dahua continues to invest like this, it is hard to say whether it can recover the capital."

Su Cheng sighed inwardly, state-owned enterprises have this ability. They can eat by dominating the table, or overturn the table so that customers cannot eat. After all, they are the sons of the hotel owner. Unless the hotel cannot be opened, they can play with the table without restraint.

Su Cheng is confident that Formosa Plastics will not continue Haicang's plan. This is not only Formosa Plastics' own business, but also involves the Taiwan government. If they agree to their 100% domestic sales, it may anger the Taiwanese authorities.

However, Formosa Plastics no longer has the Haicang plan, where will the Haicang plan go?

Historically, this plan ended in vain. Sinopec did not care about the preferential policies of the Haicang plan. For them, they had a way to get any discounts the government could give. Free 150 square kilometers of land, interest-free bank loans, or full cooperation from local governments, and the help of the military construction group were nothing.

The only thing that can limit them is the foreign exchange stock. China in 1991 is no longer short of foreign exchange, but the hunger left in the early years is still there, and banks have the urge and need to save foreign exchange. Sinopec has some RMB, but it cannot borrow from banks to US dollars, so it cannot purchase foreign large ethylene equipment, and this petrochemical base cannot be built.

Therefore, whether there is Dahua or not, Sinopec has the urge to turn the table up.

He might just be too lazy to wash dishes.

But for Su Cheng, once the table is really lifted off, he will lose a lot of money in the early stage.

Mr. Xuan saw his hesitation and said in a tempting tone: "There are so many opportunities. Why should Dahua hang himself on a crooked tree? It's still time to withdraw. Besides, haven't you built a methanol base?"

"Without Haicang plan, the methanol base will consume a lot of profits just for transportation costs." Su Cheng replied.

President Xuan said with a slight smile: "I can't do anything about this, who made you too impulsive? It's still time to slow down."

"The methanol base has been built, and it cannot be slowed down." Su Cheng looked at Mr. Xuan.

Mr. Xuan was sure to win, and said with a false smile: "What a pity."

Liu Bing was afraid that Su Cheng would say the wrong thing, so he grabbed him and said first: "The methanol base is the methanol base, and the Haicang plan is the Haicang plan. Don't mess around. The profit is less."

President Xuan smiled: "It's better for the old cadres to understand the general situation. OK. As long as Dahua quietly gives up automatically. We will take over the Haicang plan, which will also be beneficial to your methanol base, right?"

"At the speed of state-owned enterprises, it will not be easy for you to build Haicang in 10 years. The methanol base will increase its expenditure by tens of millions of dollars every year." Su Cheng seemed to figure it out and said tough again: "There are losses on both sides, why not fight for it."

"Um?"

"Dahua will not withdraw." Sucheng reiterated.

Mr. Xuan did not expect that under such circumstances, Su Cheng would still insist.

He looked around, sighed, and pretended to say, "Dong Su is determined to do it, so I have to go back and report. Goodbye!"

He greeted Director Mao and had no interest in staying again.

After the people walked away, Liu Bing sighed and said, "Why do you have to?"

Su Cheng said in a cold tone: "It's right that there are crooked trees all over the ground, but there is no one that you don't need to climb. Haicang's plan is the most suitable for Dahua."

"What if he was helping Formosa Plastics?" In Liu Bing's opinion, if Sinopec had a tendency to help, Formosa Plastics would naturally continue to the Haicang plan.

Su Cheng was not worried about Formosa Plastics, but worried about Haicang's plan being cancelled. He shook his head hurriedly and said, "If Formosa Plastics is willing to be helped, it will not be delayed until today. However, we do need to prepare for it."
