Steel Tycoon Reborn - Chapter 995

(Ask for a monthly pass, the monthly pass list has dropped to seventh! I’m crying blind…)

The “Hong Kong Huaihai Week” hosted by the provincial government, organized by the Provincial Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, China Merchants Bureau, and Xucheng Municipal Government began in early November and lasted for two weeks.

As a large-scale investment promotion event hosted by the provincial government and focused on by Xu Pei, “Hong Kong Huaihai Week” was held for the first time this year.

The first stage is to “come in”, inviting some Hong Kong investors and Hong Kong co-organizer associations to Huaihai Province to visit, inspect and conduct project negotiations.

Over the years, Shen Huai has been in contact with Hong Kong investors and companies interested in investing in industries in the Mainland.

The number of Hong Kong investors and enterprises that have been contacted by officials of the Meishan Iron and Steel Department and introduced into Huaihai Bay and other places to invest and build factories, or have directly cooperated with the Meishan Iron and Steel Department, is unknown – there are nearly 1,000 Huaihai Bay Chinese Business Associations organized and established by Song Hongjun and Sun Qiyi. Among the corporate members, Hong Kong investors accounted for 40%.

For Hong Kong companies that are willing to invest and cooperate in Xucheng, Donghua and other places, Shen Huai and Xiong Wenbin are promoting contact and negotiation in all aspects, and there is no need for more intensive investment promotion activities in the form of “Hong Kong Huaihai Week”. what to try.

However, the restructuring and reorganization project of provincial state-owned enterprises is the focus of Xu Pei’s request to put it into the investment promotion activities for publicity and promotion. Jiang Yibin and Ding Jianguo are keen on such activities, and Tang Baocheng, Yao Yuan and others also pushed Shen Huai to the front of the stage. , But on the eve of the second phase of “going out”, the governor Xu Pei attended the reception in person, Shen Huai was named by Xu Pei, and there was no way to shirk not to attend.

Although it was early winter, the night in Xucheng was already cold and windy.

Knowing that the banquet hall had sufficient heating, before getting out of the car, Shen Huai took off his windbreaker and threw it in the car, but he opened the car door and let the cold wind blow in, making him shrink his neck.

The driver Zhao Hongjun smiled and handed him the jacket: “Secretary Shen, put on your jacket first, don’t catch a cold. When I park the car, I’ll come over and get you some more jackets.”

Seeing Chen Bing, Du Jian, Wang Weicheng and the others talking outside, and seeing his car arriving, they all walked over. Shen Huai didn’t want to rush into the banquet hall to entertain, so he wanted to be outside with Chen Bing and Wang Weicheng. After talking for a while, I took my coat and got out of the car. While putting on my coat, I said hello to Chen Bing and Wang Weicheng:

“What about Xu Jian, Zhang Tuo and the others, when you came to Xucheng, they were not responsible for greeting you?”

“Zhang Tuo accompanied Mayor Li and Mayor Xiong to talk with investors. Xu Jiangang told Secretary Jiang Yibin to leave. We just arrived, thinking that you are coming soon, and waiting for you outside.” Chen Bing said.

“Secretary Shen, are you going to Hong Kong this time?” Du Jian asked.

“You can’t do it if you don’t go,” Shen Huai said with a helpless smile, and then asked, “In the Donghua group, who of you have been there?”

“The county magistrate Zhou and Wei Cheng went over. I happened to be in Xucheng for a meeting, and I brought Mayor Guo to the reception to recharge…” Chen Bing said.

“Donghua accounted for nearly 40% of the 100 projects to be signed in this investment promotion activity, and most of them were in Xiapu-Meixi, but this time the city chose to go to Hong Kong, and only Minister Zhou and District Chief Zhao followed Wei. Go in a circle.” Du Jian said, still a little grumbling.

Now Donghua Fan Wenzhi and Guo Chengze are working as a team, and the Meigang Department, led by Chen Bing, is mainly doing the work of expanding the basic business. In such events organized in provinces and cities, the Meigang Department has few opportunities to show up.

Shen Huai smiled and said, “If I hadn’t been named, I wouldn’t even go there.”

After arriving in Hong Kong, the “Hong Kong Huaihai Week” will be the main venue for the investment promotion activities, and a series of activities will be arranged. Although the signing of the project is the highlight, it is actually the result of investment promotion that has been negotiated by all parties in the province and city in the past year. This time, it is put into the “Hong Kong Huaihai Week” investment promotion activity organized by the provincial government for centralized signing. How many Xu Pei It means putting gold on your face.

But if Xu Pei didn’t do this, or he did everything possible to strengthen the influence of him and the Department of Economics, it would be abnormal – even in Xucheng, Xiong Wenbin only participated in the activities in the province this time, and did not go to Hong Kong to “grab” “Li Gu’s limelight.

At this moment, there are a few more cars coming here. Shen Huai and Chen Bing stood there and saw that the car did not continue to drive forward. They stopped in front of them. Seeing that the car door was pushed open from the inside, a charming calf wrapped in black stockings, which seemed to be straight and slender, poked into everyone’s field of vision.

Shen Huai lowered his head slightly, and saw Yu Wei’s plump and charming face lifted slightly, her charming and seductive eyes looked over with a smile, he didn’t have the embarrassment to look at Yu Wei’s plump thighs exposed by her short skirt when she got off the car.

“Secretary Shen is really a dragon. I have been in Xucheng for several days. I thought I would see you, Secretary Shen, early in the morning, but I didn’t expect your driver to show up today.” Yu Wei greeted with a smile. , Outside the gorgeous black dress, she was wrapped in a mink fur coat to keep out the cold, standing in the cold wind with a plump and beautiful appearance, and she did not feel cold.

“No one told me that President Yu also came to participate in the investment promotion meeting. I heard that Gu Zexiong was present on behalf of Baohe Group. I was afraid that he would hate the one-kick hatred that year, so he could only hide from him.” Shen Huai smiled.

However, before Shen Huai finished speaking, Gu Zexiong pushed open the door of a black Mercedes-Benz in the back, glanced here with a gloomy look, and silently walked into the banquet hall first.

“Mr. Yu is with Gu Zexiong and doesn’t even remind me. Now I don’t dare to go to Hong Kong.” Shen Huai complained to Yu Wei with a smile.

“…” Seeing Shen Huai pretending to be a bear, Yu Wei laughed lightly and said, “Zexiong and I are a family anyway, we can’t go to Xucheng in two ways, Shen Huai still wants me for this trivial matter. remind?”

Shen Huai was just in front of the flowerbed in front of the banquet building, and chatted with Yu Wei and Chen Bing. When Zhou Yu looked over from the inside, he pretended to look at his watch unintentionally, and said to Yu Wei and Chen Bing, “A summary of Xu’s growth. Come out to speak, let’s go in…”

People from the cities, TV stations and newspapers who participated in this investment promotion activity followed. Zhou Yu, as the Deputy Minister of the Propaganda Department, was also a member of the Donghua delegation to visit Hong Kong this time.

It’s just that everyone is following the activities of the large army. Although Shen Huai is with Zhou Yu, it is actually difficult for him to get along with him alone. It’s just that at the banquet hall, Shen Huai deliberately fell behind and wanted to say a few words to Zhou Yu. However, Yu Wei stared at Shen Huai intentionally or unintentionally, and greeted him warmly from the door: “Secretary Shen, why are you behind? Shouldn’t you be one of the protagonists in such an investment promotion activity, Secretary Shen?”

Shen Huai could only smile helplessly at Zhou Yu; Zhou Yu chuckled and bit his lip, urging him with a “pun intended”: “People let you go, you don’t want to hurt people’s hearts…”

Shen Huai thought about finding an opportunity to “clean up” the jealous Zhou Yu later, but now he could only walk towards Yu Wei with a numb scalp, and said with a smile, “I think you are the protagonist of today, Mr. Yu, look. Everyone can’t wait to gouge out their eyeballs and hit you.”

People rely on clothes, this is not nonsense.

Zhou Yu’s appearance is exquisite, mature and charming, not a little worse than Yu Wei, but although the Zhou family is not poor in money, Zhou Yu, as a government official, usually wears clothes, but he deliberately pursues simplicity, and the lipstick is transparent and colorless, and he will wear a lipstick. Her hair was tied into a bun with hairpins tied behind her chest, and she was wearing brown trousers and a light brown coat. Naturally, she was not as radiant as Yu Wei in the light.

Although those who can enter this banquet hall are used to seeing all kinds of beauties, their eyes cannot help but be taken away by Yu Wei’s brilliance.

However, Shen Huai prefers to look at Zhou Yu’s soft face that never gets tired of seeing him, and the plump, snow-white body under his dress is what he misses even more.

“I told Xiaoxuan that you are going to Hong Kong this time, but she still doesn’t believe me,” Yu Wei was familiar with the eyes of others, and when Shen Huai approached, she bit his ear, “Secretary Shen, Do you know that Xiaoxuan has been in Xucheng during this time?”

How did Shen Huai know that Kou Xuan was in Xucheng, but after listening to Yu Wei’s tone, it seemed that he was going to use him to “coerce” Kou Xuan to go back to Hong Kong with her, her scalp was numb, and she didn’t know how to keep some distance from this vicious woman. .

“What are Mr. Yu and Director Shen talking about?” I don’t know where Hu Lin and Fan Wenzhi came from. Seeing Yu Wei and Shen Huai whispering, they came from behind to say hello.

“Let’s talk about Meigang’s listing in London,” Yu Wei said with a light smile, “Meigang raised 3 billion in the London stock market as a whole this time. Secretary Fan and President Hu should all know it. Everyone says that Secretary Shen is the godfather of Huaihai’s steel industry, it seems that Secretary Shen is going to make great achievements again…”

Shen Huai thought that Yu Wei was almost forty, and she still wanted to be a goblin. Seeing Fan Wenzhi frowning slightly, he knew that Yu Wei had just imposed the broken title of “Godfather of the Iron and Steel Industry”, which was very exciting. intellectual nerves.

Meigang has been planning the overall listing of the Xinpu Steel project since June.

Due to the high foreign shareholding of Xinpu Steel, it is restricted in the mainland securities market; foreign shareholders such as West Umins, Feiqi Industry and Berkeley Bank hold almost 30% of Xinpu Steel, and they all advocate Xinpu Steel to London Stock market listing and trading.

In addition to West Umins Industrial Group, Feiqi Industrial Group and Berkeley Bank, the main influences are in the UK; the rise of Meishan Iron and Steel is mainly to undertake the British steel industry and technology transfer, and a considerable part of its products are sold in West UK, The raw material for scrap steel comes from the United Kingdom, and it is also easy to be favored by some securities investors when it is listed on the London stock market.

Xinpu Steel has been in operation for three years since its establishment and operation. In addition to the depreciation of 2.5 billion, the accumulated profit has also exceeded 2 billion. In fact, it takes three years to earn back all the initial investment in construction funds. , the income tax relief period is only one-third of the time past.

Although foreign shareholders are more inclined to wait for the tax relief period to pass before considering the issue of listing, they are hesitant to use the dividends they have distributed to build the second phase of Xinpu Steel.

More importantly, projects such as Dongjiang Electric Power, Xudong Railway Reconstruction, and Pengyue Modern City have already taken up too much capital from Meishan Iron and Steel, and will also require Meishan Iron and Steel to continuously invest in construction funds; The construction of the second phase of Xinpu Iron and Steel has been started before, and there is no better financing channel except for listing financing.

Under the impetus of British shareholders such as Berkeley Bank, Xinpu Steel issued 20% of its shares to the listed company Meixi Industry Co. assets of the second plant.

This is mainly to facilitate Meishan Iron and Steel to centralize its steelmaking assets under a listed company for standardized management~www.mtlnovel.com~ to reduce the financial loopholes in the transfer of benefits; then in the first ten days of this month, it officially became Meishan Iron and Steel Group Co., Ltd. 20% of the shares were successfully listed on the London Stock Exchange in the name of the company, which was better than expected and raised more than 250 million pounds.

In this way, apart from a few entities such as Zhujiang Refining and Chemical, Meixi Industry’s main assets are its equity interests in Donghua City Commercial Bank, Meishan Iron and Steel, Dongjiang Refinery, and Huaihai Financial Investment. Officially changed its name to Meixi Holdings and transformed into an asset management listed company.

As a result, the Meigang Group owns three listed companies, Meigang Group, Meixi Holdings and Xinpu Shipping, with a total market value of more than 30 billion.

The funds raised from the listing of Meishan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. were clearly used for the construction of the second phase of Xinpu Iron and Steel before applying for listing.

Although Meishan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. has not specified the construction scale of the second phase of the project, but with its own funds of 3 billion plus corresponding bank loans, the steelmaking capacity of the second phase of Meishan Iron and Steel Construction will not be less than 5 million tons.

After the completion of the steel project in Xinjin by Provincial Steel and Rongxin, they managed to narrow the gap with Meigang in terms of scale. However, Xinjin Steel’s market pressure in Meigang has been in operation for more than half a year, and its production capacity has not yet reached 50%. Meishan Iron and Steel is about to start the second phase of the project, which will be difficult for Provincial Iron and Steel and Ronshine Group to digest for a while, both in terms of personal grievances and corporate competition.

Moreover, Provincial Steel had to accept the leadership of the Provincial State-owned Assets Office and Shen Huai in name.

Seeing that Yu Wei said that she and Shen Huai were talking about the overall listing of Meigang, how could Hu Lin and Fan Wenzhi still be interested in going forward? He frowned and forced a smile twice, and walked away without being too lazy to speak…
