Chapter 661 A New Challenge

In [-], in the official circles of Huaxia Liao Province, the cadres above the deputy department level in Wuye County were almost all in one pot. It was definitely an event that will be unforgettable even after more than ten years!

Due to the high level of concern from the top officials in the province, the unprecedented crackdown, and the suddenness of the incident, all the people involved in the case had no time to do any cover-up work, let alone unify their caliber.Therefore, under the powerful crackdown of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Provincial Police Department, in just three to five days, the shady curtain that had been hanging over Wuye County was forcibly torn away, completely exposing the corruption phenomenon in the county. When it came out, it was shocking.

According to the statistics of relevant people afterwards, among the leading cadres of Wuye County, except for Ma Yingzhuang, the secretary of the county party committee, and a deputy county magistrate, who were degraded and transferred to the Party History Research Office of Liaoyuan City, they failed to advance half a step in their official careers. In addition, 17 other cadres above the deputy department level were sentenced to death or death with a reprieve by the Liaoyuan City Court, including county magistrate Sun Defu, police chief Fu Mingsheng, and Zhu Delong's father Zhu Jun.Eleven others were sentenced to life imprisonment, and the rest were all sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment. The shortest sentence was three years in prison with a three-year probation.As for the government staff and village staff below, dozens of them have been sentenced to criminal responsibility, many of whom have received death sentences with reprieve, and hundreds of them have been given various demerits and warnings...

It can be said that after the incident, the officialdom in Wuye County was like the land after the tsunami—a mess.In this incident, organ personnel who were not affected at all are as rare as giant pandas in the animal kingdom.However, these people became the lucky ones in this incident afterwards. There are a large number of sub-departmental and department-level positions in the county for them to choose from.The leaders of the province still look down on these officials below the deputy director.

This official tsunami affected not only the cadres and civil servants of Wuye County, but also the dark side of society in Wuye County. The hunhuns were also arrested one after another, and what they faced was a more severe punishment than those officials and civil servants.All of a sudden, the dark forces in Wuye County were swept away!

Of course, all of this is for later.

Deng Zhong, who has received the support of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, is more concerned about how to truly implement the Fang family's investment intentions than Wuye County's anti-corruption actions.

At this time, Fang Mingyuan was also implementing the plan in his heart.

For the steelmaking equipment used by the steelmaking plant in Liaoyuan City in the future, domestic equipment will mainly be used, and some core equipment will be imported from abroad.Although Fang Mingyuan also has a steelmaking factory in Japan under his name, he does not plan to import Japanese steelmaking equipment.Instead, they turned their attention to the United States or Europe.To be precise, it is mainly the Albeid Steel Company in Europe, the Tysen Group and the Krupp Company, which is well-known in the hearts of Chinese people.

Needless to say, about Albeid Steel Company, Fang Mingyuan has already had a lot of contacts with them. Fang Mingyuan also used an undiscovered mine in Europe in exchange for many technologies of Albeid Iron and Steel Company.The two parties are no strangers.

According to the information obtained by Fang Mingyuan in his previous life, although the iron and steel industry has always been a traditional industry in Luxembourg, as the iron ore deposits in Luxembourg and Europe are gradually depleted, Luxembourg has to adjust its industrial structure. The proportion of GDP has dropped from nearly 30.00% in the past to 70.00% in the new century, and the proportion of steel exports in Luxembourg's exports has also dropped from nearly [-]% to less than one-third.However, the Luxembourg Albeid Steel Group is still the third largest steel group in the world, and the crude steel output of the group is still as high as more than [-] million tons. However, the Albeid Iron and Steel Group has gradually shifted to focus on external growth, and the country mainly focuses on the development of steel patent technology. and research, transfer steel production to developing countries such as Latin America, and take the road of external expansion.In other words, from now on, this behemoth has already begun to gradually transfer its steel plants all over Europe overseas.

As for the Tysen Group, perhaps Chinese people don’t know much about it, but those who have a little understanding of the world’s military history about Krupp will never forget that this is the most famous military enterprise in Germany. The cannons produced by Krupp used to be used Bismarck defeated Austria and France successively in the middle of the 19th century. This is the famous Krupp cannon.After the First World War, the Krupp family still focused on developing the family business.The main products at that time were mainly sold to the Soviet Union.Soon, at the request of the German General Staff, the Krupp family secretly participated in the rearmament of Germany and produced the first batch of armored vehicles, and resumed the production of cannons two years later.During World War II, it manufactured artillery, armored vehicles, tanks, submarines and various light weapons for the German army.

However, many people only pay attention to Krupp's military achievements, but ignore Krupp's achievements in steel, shipbuilding, trucks and locomotives.The history of modern stainless steel began with an experiment in the Krupp laboratory in Essen, Germany in the 20th century!
Fang Mingyuan knew that in a few years, Krupp would merge with Germany's Tysen Group, the German steel giant once known as the "King of the Ruhr", to form the TysenKrupp Group, and Prior to this, the two companies merged their respective stainless steel flat-roll production plants to form a new company, initially Krupp Thyssenni Rosta GmbH, which at the time was the world's largest stainless steel flat-roll production plant.

The reason why TysenKrupp Group is optimistic about the future is that, on the one hand, they are all old European steel companies with advanced and mature equipment, and the Germans are more trustworthy than the Japanese, although the equipment and technology During transfer negotiations, the Germans are also cunning and greedy, fighting for every inch of money, but once the two parties reach an agreement, the Germans will be serious and responsible in implementing the agreement, and will not set up obstacles for you everywhere like the Japanese, Keep it secret and don't say it.It also secretly set traps for you, making you pay a greater price for it in the future.

On the other hand, Fang Mingyuan also knows that the elevator company under the Tysen Group, whose main business scope is the manufacture, installation, remote monitoring, maintenance, and renovation of old elevators of elevators and escalators, has always wanted to enter the Chinese market, but has always wanted to enter the Chinese market. Not a single right opportunity.

You must know that in the future, China's elevator market will account for one-fifth of the world's total, and until the first ten years of the next century, the growth rate will still show no signs of slowing down. It can be said that China has become the world's largest elevator market. Add a new market.However, most of the market share in the Chinese market is controlled by more than a dozen large foreign-invested companies such as Otis of the United States, Schindler of Switzerland, Kone of Finland, ThyssenKrupp of Germany, Mitsubishi of Japan, and Hitachi.Compared with competitors Otis, Mitsubishi and Hitachi, Thyssen Elevator, the world's third largest elevator group, is lagging behind in the competition in the Chinese market.

The merger of two such large old steel companies is naturally impossible to be a sudden whim. The previous negotiations have been going on for ten years, so there is nothing strange about it.After the merger, not all of these steel mills under the names of the two parties can be successfully merged, so some departments will definitely be considered for sale.

Combining the two, the elevator company wants to enter the Chinese market, but at the same time, because of the merger of the two companies in the future, it will also need to sell some unnecessary departments. This is also its own opportunity!
Of course, Fang Mingyuan can also wait until the financial crisis in Southeast Asia breaks out before purchasing the steel plant. At that time, although the impact on European and American countries is relatively small, the economies of South Korea and Japan will be hit hard. It shouldn't be a problem for them to acquire a batch of steel companies.

But Fang Mingyuan didn't want to wait any longer. For one thing, the huge amount of funds obtained from Russia cannot always be kept in the bank.And now there is still enough time before the financial crisis in Southeast Asia. Although he has already started to plan, he still understands the reason why all chicken eggs cannot be put in the same basket; No matter how much cash there is, it is still unknown how much cash will be left behind in the face of the economic crisis in the future and the depreciation of the dollar in the future.Third, and of course the most important thing, if he wants to make some achievements in the steel industry and stop the penetration of the Japanese consortium into the Huaxia Steel Industry, his time is already very tight!
Fang Mingyuan, who had seen "The Mitsui Empire in Action" in his previous life, knew very well that in a few years, Huaxia Haibao Iron and Steel Group Corporation, a super-large iron and steel complex with strong Japanese "blood" will be established, and It has become the only iron and steel enterprise in the Huaxia Iron and Steel Industry that has entered the top ten in the world's iron and steel industry.Its annual output has reached 3000 million tons, with more than 10 employees, and it has entered the list of the world's top [-] companies for many years.

Haibao Iron and Steel Group Corporation produces steel for automobiles, steel for oil and gas mining and transportation, stainless steel, steel for household appliances, steel for transportation equipment, steel for electrical equipment, steel for boilers and pressure vessels, and steel for packaging of food and beverages. Steel, steel for metal products, steel for special materials, and high-grade construction steel can be said to be the steel company with the largest scale, the most complete varieties and specifications, and the largest proportion of high-tech and high value-added products in China.For Huaxia to become the world's largest steelmaking power in the future, no one can ignore the role of Haibao Iron and Steel Group Corporation in promoting it.

However, due to its strong Japanese "blood", this is reflected in the Haibao Iron and Steel Group Corporation. From the introduction of equipment and technology at the beginning of its establishment to the later talent training, logistics services, external expansion, and financial services, it has been influenced by Japan. Impact.It is precisely in this way that Haibao Iron and Steel Group Co., Ltd. can develop rapidly and open up overseas markets.

But are the Japanese so kind and willing to help China establish a sound and modern steel industry?
