Now the relationship between senior officials and Hao Jianping has quietly changed. It is no longer as somewhat condescending as before, and the personal relationship between Zeng Qiming and others and Hao Jianping has become closer. As long as Zeng Qiming returns to the capital for business, , No. 8 Toutou Lane is a stop he must come to.
When they saw the guests, the women said hello and then went to the waterside pavilion with the children who were staring at the barbecue pit and couldn't move.
Hao Jianping tied his hands and gave up his seat with a smile: "It's up to you, just shake hands, your hands are full of oil."
Zhang Kun was the least angry one. He picked up his favorite food and filled a plate full of it. He carried two bottles of beer and ran to the place where Chang Yi was sitting by the lake just now. He reached out and picked up the fishing rod in the water. . Eating barbecue, fishing, and drinking beer are his favorites.
Zeng Qiming stood by the barbecue with a smile, shook his head and said with envy: "Jianping, your life is so enviable."
Chen Kuan picked up a chair and put it behind Zeng Qiming: "Secretary, please sit down."
Although Chen Kuan is several years older than Zeng Qiming, his status in the officialdom is not measured by age. He only addressed Zeng Qiming as secretary and withheld his last name, which already surpassed most of the people in the province. Cadres, who would be called that if they weren't the closest direct descendants?
Chang Yi picked up a beer and went to have fun with Zhang Kun. The two people were quite similar in some aspects, and they could speak the same language easily.
Hao Jianping took out a lot of meat skewers with serial numbers from the insulator and placed them on the charcoal stove. He flipped them and grilled them skillfully and said with a smile: "Brother Qiming, if you are envious, just come here often. It seems that you have participated in a national housing price macro-control seminar and a coastal area environmental governance coordination meeting this month. What meeting are you holding this time?"
Zeng Qiming said with a smile: "This is a party meeting. Can you, kid, say less weird things?"
This guy has always complained a lot about the various meetings held by leading cadres. What¡¯s wrong with having too many meetings? Having more meetings means that everyone is working actively and hard. Without so many meetings, how could there be so many policies issued? It can be said that social development is inseparable from numerous meetings.
Hao Jianping laughed and handed a few skewers of grilled squid to Zeng Qiming and Chen Kuan respectively. While he was busy, he took a sip of beer into his mouth.
Zeng Qiming took two bites of meat skewers, looked at Hao Jianping and said, "Actually, I'm mainly here to see you this time."
Hao Jianping turned over the chicken wings in his hand, made two diagonal cuts on them with the knife in his hand, looked at Zeng Qiming with a half-smile and said: "Brother Qiming, the grilled chicken wings taste good, do you want to try them?"
Zeng Qiming swallowed back half of the words he had not yet spoken, shook his head with a wry smile, and reached out to take a chicken wing handed over by Hao Jianping.
Chen Kuan glanced at Zeng Qiming, exchanged a look with Zeng Qiming, looked at Hao Jianping and said: "Jianping, several projects under construction in Nanhai have been stopped, including several large projects invested by Baixin Group . Every day these projects are suspended will bring us huge economic losses."
Hao Jianping nodded and raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "I understand these situations, but this is the general trend. It is not just our Baixin Group that is forced to stop work now. There are some things that are urgent and cannot be rushed."
"Jianping, don't you have any good way to solve this problem?" Zeng Qiming asked.
Now that the country has reached a critical moment, and Hao Jianping is still here enjoying barbecue, isn't this person not worried about the current tense situation at all? Or is he really wealthy enough to ignore these losses?
Hao Jianping shook his head at Zeng Qiming: "Brother Qiming, this is a normal commercial operation, so we should also follow the normal operating channels. There is nothing opportunistic here. Brother Qiming, from Nanhai Province Steel companies should account for a very small proportion of the province¡¯s total economic output?¡±
Hao Jianping meant that Zeng Qiming was meddling in his own business.
Soon after the Yarlung Zangbo River Hydropower Project was established, India suddenly increased the export tariff on iron ore, which will be charged an additional US$9 per ton. This policy of India immediately led to a surge in international iron ore prices. The average transaction price in the international market increased by a little more than 7 US dollars, which was 14% higher than the original export price of iron ore.
As the world¡¯s largest importer and demander of iron ore, China has borne the brunt of this round of price increases.
The exports of iron ore from India, Australia and Brazil to China accounted for 81.7% of China¡¯s total imports. During the last riot in the Philippines, Vice President Rong Baibing of Shougang Group was trapped in the Philippines.The purpose is to investigate the iron ore resources in the Philippines and expand supply channels for Shougang's imported iron ore.
In fact, what is hidden behind this seemingly inconspicuous $7 is the increasingly fierce steel dispute between China and India. It is unknown whether it is India's retaliatory action against China's Brahmaputra River hydropower project. .
India is a country rich in iron ore resources, but India's steel companies lag far behind, with an annual output of only about 40 million tons, while China's annual steel output is 440 million tons. Even China's Not even a fraction is enough. The annual production capacity of Shougang alone already exceeds half of India's national annual production capacity. For this reason, Indian steel companies have long regarded Chinese steel companies as their imaginary enemies. They imagine that if the export price of iron ore is increased, it will inevitably increase the costs of Chinese steel companies. In comparison, in In the international market, Indian steel has a price advantage over Chinese steel, which can open up more international markets and enter a virtuous mixed-loop track. Therefore, on the basis of this dream, Indian steel companies have vigorously lobbied the government to restrict or even ban the export of iron ore under the banner of protecting India's mineral resources, thereby confronting Chinese steel companies.
After weighing the pros and cons, the Indian government has never agreed to this plan. This time, it is estimated that it was stimulated by the Brahmaputra River hydropower project and suddenly passed the decision to impose additional tariffs on iron ore exports. It is estimated that it also wants to use this method to give China Just look at it and slow down the pace of China's development, and the international iron ore market has added fuel to the flames of India's cunning plan.
In the past few months, a large part of domestic steel production companies have been in a state of semi-stop production, and some small businesses have simply shut down temporarily. The increase in cost price by 14% has exceeded the limit they can tolerate. Downstream products are inevitably affected by price increases, and their price advantage in the international market is gradually fading. For example, Hao Jianping's Tenglong Motors has also been affected. The production cost price and sales price are basically the same, with no difference. There is profit to be made.
Zeng Qiming heard Hao Jianping's slightly accusatory inquiry and shook his head with a wry smile: "Jianping, as the world's largest steel producer and seller, our country has suffered huge economic losses in the past few months. This time the iron ore The price increase should be regarded as a government action and a targeted government action. Grandpa hopes that through your efforts, we can get more iron ore quotas from Australia."
Hao Jianping shook his head gently: "I'm afraid there are some difficulties. As far as I know, the Australian government has strict restrictions on the mining of mineral resources. They will not specifically increase the production of iron ore for a certain country, and with their Judging from the investment in mineral mining, it is impossible for them to provide the iron ore that we need in a short period of time. I think the country should still approach this matter through multiple channels. We used to rely too much on the iron ore from these three countries. The ore is in supply, and if there is a slight change, we will have no room for change."
I¡¯m afraid there are some difficulties, but there is still hope for this matter. Zeng Qiming, who knows the official language well, his eyes lit up. As for what Hao Jianping is going to say later, it is no longer important.
"Jianping, there are millions of steel workers in China." Zeng Qiming looked at Hao Jianping and said.
This hat is so big, but you can¡¯t just put it on my head? ! .
