He just came to our place after returning from the former Soviet Union." He Han took the person to the private room very politely, and then said to Su Cheng: "Director Zhong, we are very concerned about COSCO Shipping, and have helped us argue with reason several times..."
In a few simple sentences, He Han explained Director Zhong’s background to Su Cheng. Because China’s shipbuilding industry was monopolized by China Shipbuilding Group, which was formerly the Sixth Ministry of Machinery, in its early years, Director Zhong wanted to help China Shipbuilding to argue, and the opponent must be China Shipbuilding Corporation.
"Striving to argue" may be He Han's more exaggerated description, but even if he is just able to speak, it means that his background is deep.
The relationship between Sucheng and the Petroleum Corporation is nothing more than a good word.
Moreover, Director Zhong is a real administrative cadre, much tougher than an enterprise cadre like He Han. His hand was polite to Su Cheng and then took it back, laughing and said, "It is my duty to speak to Zhongyuan. You can't let others get cheap because of temporary difficulties. The work of our State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission is the first priority to avoid losing state-owned assets."
Su Cheng's face suddenly became cold and said, "There is no difficulty in operating COSCO Shipping, it's just a matter of how much you make. I think that too much mother-in-law is the biggest hidden danger of COSCO Shipping."
Today is different from the past. A project worth hundreds of millions of dollars is equivalent to Tang Monk's meat on the way west. If he shows a little weakness, Director Zhong, Director Nan, Director Xi and others will immediately show their fangs and have a beautiful meal in public.
He Han looked helpless and said hurriedly: "Look at me, I'm old and can't even greet guests. Please sit down first, drink some wine to moisten your throat."
Director Zhong is about the same age as Hu Jian, and is more than 10 years younger than He Han, so it is hard to continue talking about it. He took a bear step and staggered towards the table.
The tables in the private room were quietly changed. The 18 newly made dishes were neatly arranged. A few bottles of wine were also placed in the middle. In addition to the common white wine and red wine, there were also local rice wine, which was also the feature of the local banquet.
Su Cheng slightly raised his chin and sat on the main seat before the slow director.
Previously, he gave up the master seat to He Han, and at this time, He Han thought he would not sit there anymore.
Director Zhong stopped his steps and became slightly angry.
Su Cheng looked at the seat next to him and chuckled twice.
He Han stroked his forehead and thought to himself: I am really a 25-year-old, why should I sit there?
This is to be replaced by the movie Young and Dangerous, and after both sides stare at each other for 30 seconds, it is time to start the movie.
But Director Zhong is a civilized person, or even if he wants to start a movie, his bear-like figure can no longer support such high-intensity homework.
After glaring for a while, Director Zhong sat on the side under He Han's persuasion.
He Han was so tired. He was sweating so much that he could only shake his head and smile bitterly, wipe the matter with his sleeves, thinking: Why does my deputy ministerial level feel like he is at the deputy ministerial level?
This time, He Han was unwilling to speak anyway. He Yuwei winked. A group of people living with the distant people rushed forward.
Director Zhong did not refuse, and took a cup and drank two sips of wine, picked up food and ate it again. He rushed over and didn't have time to eat.
After a little bit of his stomach, Director Zhong's expression calmed down, raised his cup to Su Cheng, and said calmly: "Don't blame me for not seeing the world before. I heard from Mr. He that Dahua Industrial wants to prepare 300 million US dollars to make a ship?"
"The total budget of shipyards and ships is $300 million." This money is almost pure fixed asset investment. It does not include technology transfer and patent fees, nor does it include labor and training fees. Since LNG ships are developing very fast, investment fees have also increased year by year, almost 8% every year. Therefore, if you invest in a shipyard 10 years later, $1 billion is not enough.
Director Zhong smiled and said, "The shipyard is built for one year and the shipbuilding will last for three years. From this point of view, it will take 4 years to recover half of the investment and it will take smoothly. Director Su is really proud."
He threw a piece of meat into his mouth, biting the crisp bones so loudly.
Su Cheng played with the wine glass with his hands and said lightly: "If it goes well, the shipyard will not take one year, nor will it take two years to build a ship."
"Dr. Su is kidding. I know a little bit about shipbuilding. The hull of the lng ship, just its hull, will take you a year, not to mention the cargo hold inside, minus 163 degrees Celsius. Hey, I heard that many laboratories in our country cannot simulate this effect."
"There are many things that domestic laboratories cannot do." Su Cheng stopped and said, "As for shipbuilding, I don't know much, but I may know a little more than Director Zhong. Judging from the current trend in the shipbuilding industry, building a freighter in two months will be the minimum requirement. If you can't do it, you will have to be eliminated."
Director Zhong got used to being stabbed. He saw too much about the speed of shipbuilding in China and didn’t believe in the two months of shipbuilding. He thought to himself: Do you think a tens of thousands of tons of freighter is an iron box? Weld it out just by welding it?
He didn't want to hold on to the details, so he frowned and said, "Then I'll wait and see how fast Dahua Shipping Industry is in Shenzhen. However, can Dahua Industrial get 300 million US dollars in cash?"
He wanted to rebel against the generals. Only those who run enterprises know how rare US$300 million is, which is 300 million US dollars. Even the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission cannot afford this money.
Su Cheng said: "Dahua's funds are not worrying about Director Zhong. In fact, it is not just $300 million, but we also paid 40 million to Halliburton. With the fragments, the total budget is $400 million."
Director Zhong stopped, his chopsticks hung, and his greed flashed in a flash, and said, "Dr. Su has done a great job in business. However, when Director Su started his own business, don't forget our brothers and brothers in China. China COSCO Shipping has not been together for a long time and has a full staff. What is missing now is a channel for upward..."
"You don't have to say whether COSCO Shipping needs help." Director Su interrupted him and smiled and said, "After all, the SASAC is a controlling party, and Mr. He is the operator. If you want to make a decision for COSCO Shipping, you will be the general manager of COSCO Shipping first."
The general manager of COSCO Shipping is at the vice-ministerial level, and Director Zhong is still far from being apart.
Seeing that Su Cheng was not good at softness and hardship, Director Zhong looked up and said, "So, Director Su refused to talk about it?"
"I'm just talking." During the negotiations between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, no one was willing to bear the reputation of destroying peace talks, and Su Cheng didn't want to say or not.
Director Zhong turned his face and looked at He Han and asked, "Mr. He, what do you say?"
He Han hid for a long time without saying anything. He could not hide at this moment, so he touched his temples and simply said: "COSCO Shipping's profits were all handed over last year. There was nothing left in foreign exchange reserves, we can't take out, $180 million."
"I don't think it's all US dollars. Mr. Su, you have to order domestic raw materials. If you raise 300 million US dollars, it's better to change it to 2.4 billion RMB. COSCO Shipping pays 1.2 billion US dollars." He quietly erased the exchange rate of 0.3.
Su Cheng smiled: "Then what do I use to pay the bills for the raw materials I want to import from abroad?"
"I can make the decision and exchange a dollar for you from the People's Bank of China." Since the exchange rate reform, the exchange rate of USD to RMB 1 to 8.3 has been relatively close to reality. Therefore, private enterprises are not completely unable to exchange USD. It is just that when foreign exchange is tight, they are inevitably forced to have favors.
However, no matter how strong Director Zhong has a strong background, it would be a fantasy to exchange 100 million US dollars.
Su Cheng then said: "There is nothing to talk about for US$180 million. The SASAC does not want to do it, so Dahua will do it by itself."
"Works don't want the workers?" Director Zhong finally found out. He was actually grasping this point. Dahua Shipping Industry has a short time. Although it has recruited a lot of people, the work has been full for a long time, and orders for offshore drilling platforms must not be ignored.
Without anyone, no matter how strong the technology is, it cannot be used.
Director Zhong said proudly: "Actually, Director Su should not just look at COSCO Shipping. There are many companies in China that can do giant freighters, and I can help you contact us."
The implication is that he can contact shipbuilders from shipyards across the country.
This is probably Director Zhong’s biggest reliance.
He Han pressed his head with his hand, pretending to be unable to drink, and secretly observed Su Cheng. His background was not as strong as Director Zhong, so he was in the attitude of not being offended if he could not offend him.
Su Cheng flicked his finger and sighed: This is the most annoying thing about the powerful capital. It was originally a win-win situation. In order to make an extra point of profit, they would force others to pay 10 points. Judging from Director Zhong's appearance, if Dahua Industrial does not agree to use the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission to invest in real estate and RMB, COSCO Shipping would not be able to earn labor fees even if it wanted to earn labor fees.
But how is this possible?
In fact, even if the other party took out the US dollar, Sucheng would not sell shares of Dahua Shipping to them. LNG ships are a standard money tree, and he doesn't even want Halliburton, let alone COSCO Shipping.
Su Cheng looked at He Han.
He Han smiled bitterly and closed his eyes slightly. He was ready. If Su Cheng forced him to express his opinion, he would sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman, which would be considered as returning Su Cheng's favor.
Su Cheng could also guess what he was thinking, but he calmed down and said, "Director Zhong represents himself or the official?"
"My personal opinion." Director Zhong said, blinking, scoffing at Su Cheng's problem, and thought to himself: What a young man.
Su Cheng chuckled, stood up and said, "Since it is Director Zhong's personal opinion, then let's do it first."
After saying that, he left the hotel directly.
Director Zhong snorted, looked at his back from afar, and said to He Han: "He either doesn't build a ship, or he has to come back obediently. Mr. He, don't be soft."
He Han couldn't understand Su Cheng's attitude, so he just smiled.
