super energy power

After getting off the plane, Wang Keling enthusiastically invited Sioux Cheng and others to stay in the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.It's like a Chinese invites Americans to Capitol Hill, it's all about showing off.

Su Cheng cheerfully let him show off.If it weren't for Formosa Plastics, it would not be easy for him to live in the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.Before the reform and opening up, it was completely unacceptable. A dozen small buildings were only for foreign heads of state and important guests, such as powerful figures such as Khrushchev, Nixon, and Kim Jong Il, who were serious guests of the Diaoyu State Hotel.For example, Kissinger and Powell can only live in small buildings 5, 6, and 7. Even if building 18 is empty, they will not be admitted.

After the reform and opening up, Diaoyu Guotai Hotel began to transform into a market, but it still has certain requirements for guests... In Sioux City's view, the so-called requirements are mainly grades, and domestic units must be above the ministerial level to open letters of introduction and come in for meetings , Foreign guests from abroad at least have the status of one of the top [-] companies in the world...

Formosa Plastics is naturally within the category of guests of Diaoyu Guotai Hotel.Therefore, Wang Keling was able to book a small building for a group of Dahua Industrial Group at a price of 5 US dollars a day.

They took out 5 US dollars, and Sioux City could bear to show off with peace of mind!

The entourage of Dahua Industrial Group has people close to it, including management such as Chen Zunian, Li Lin, and Zhong Zhigen, as well as researchers such as Liu Qiu and Zhan Chunrong. They have heard the term "Diaoyu Guotai Hotel" in the news since they were young. For a long time, "Diaoyu Guotai Hotel" was a political symbol. Now, when everyone walks into this political symbol, they can't help feeling ups and downs and overflowing with emotion.

Zhong Zhigen stood in the middle of the living room, looked at the surrounding furnishings, and secretly compared it with the mansions and palaces he had seen abroad.

Li Lin also couldn't wait to visit the conference hall, imagining the meeting of Chinese and foreign leaders here.

Chen Zunian grabbed the briefcase that he had used for more than ten years, with the word "Shanghai" written on it, first sat on the sofa, and then slowly baked it on the back of the sofa, as if he was trying some kind of hot temperature.After waiting for a few seconds, he slowly made a gesture of crossing his legs, lightly lit a cigarette, and sighed, "I never thought I would be able to live in the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse when I'm over half a century old."

"If Jichai can become China's top 100, you can also come here for meetings."

"Really?"

"Really." Su Cheng casually promised.

Chen Zunian began to calculate the level of the world's top 100.

Su Cheng put a row of keys on the coffee table, and said with a smile: "Everyone has a room, and you can go to that room with whichever key you get. The VIP bedroom has a large living room and a minibar. And the corresponding small reception room. Ordinary The VIP suite also has a small living room and bathroom. It is lucky to get a large bedroom. Everyone chooses the room. Clean up and have a meeting in the conference hall on the first floor in a quarter of an hour."

The Diaoyu Guotai Hotel is full of villas with dozens of rooms, which are specially used to entertain diplomatic delegations.The manpower of Dahua Industrial Group is not enough to live in the room.

The young researcher Zhan Chunrong cheered and snatched a key first.He took a look and rushed upstairs.He is a new graduate of Dahua Laboratory. Although he just graduated with a master's degree, Su Cheng knows that within ten years, he will be able to write a "masterpiece": "Petroleum Engineering Rock Mechanics"—— A monograph that would kill 99% of college graduates.

In Su Cheng's memory, this book proved Zhan Chunrong's value.He became a world-class rock engineer from a small lecturer who had difficulty applying for an associate professor. He was finally hired by an American company with a high salary and worked in the front line of oil production all year round.His later main achievements focused on the drilling work of surrounding rock, casing, cement sheath, etc. under complex ground stress conditions.Although it sounds a bit dangling.In fact, it is very simple. Zhan Chunrong's research results can drill deeper and longer extended-reach wells, horizontal wells and other difficult oil wells. This is also a researcher that Dahua urgently needs.

Even Zhan Chunrong himself was not sure of his own value before his book broke out, and Dahua Lab signed a long-term contract with him and added him to the dividend sharing plan.And provided him with a lot of opportunities in rock mechanics, including the rare verification drilling - in other companies or schools, it is impossible to have such good conditions. platform.in a fast-rising channel.

There are as many as 30 such researchers in Dahua Lab.It doesn't sound like much, but it's enough to put any research institution to shame.Because each of them can dominate a separate laboratory.It can be said that it is Sioux City's biggest reliance. With the management of modern enterprises and relatively abundant funds in China, Dahua can hold meetings in Diaoyu Guotai Hotel.

In contrast, the advantage of Formosa Plastics lies in its scale, and they have always been very good at using their scale.

Just last year, Formosa Plastics invested more than 0 billion Taiwan dollars in Taiwan, and by its own efforts, it raised the island's GDP by several percentage points.If an investment of 70 billion US dollars is settled in China, it can also increase the GDP of mainland China by several points, generate huge demand in the upstream and downstream, and create even greater marginal benefits every year.

Taking advantage of this huge economic influence that can affect politics, Wang Yongqing swung Taiwan to hit the mainland, and swung the mainland to hit Taiwan.

Everyone knows it well, but the more this is the case, the higher the standard of reception he will receive in the mainland.

As guests, Su Cheng and others were also told to wait two days before they could meet Wang Yongqing. Prior to this, there were interviews with several units such as the Ministry of Energy and PetroChina, all of which talked about the importance of the Haicang Project.

The implication is to prevent Dahua from self-defeating and ruining the relationship with Formosa Plastics.

Sioux City received two families, and simply said that the illness was gone.He was too lazy to explain Formosa Plastics' intentions to these bureaucrats. In other words, the bureaucrats understood Formosa Plastics' intentions, but they were unwilling to admit or face them.

Even for high-level people, this is a difficult problem to solve.They are reluctant to give up the Haicang plan, but they cannot implement the Haicang plan.

For Sioux City, who knows the history, things are much simpler.

The original old method is doomed to fail to implement the Haicang plan. If this is the case, then use some new methods.

It is of course good to implement the Haicang plan, but it is also good if the Haicang plan cannot be implemented.So as not to waste a lot of manpower and material resources.

With this kind of thought, when Su Cheng met Wang Yongqing, his attitude was quite calm, which formed a sharp contrast with other people.

It's just a skinny old man, there's nothing to worry about, Su Cheng thinks so, and does the same.

He meets.Shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries are like facing Chen Zunian. Although Chen Zunian is younger than Wang Yongqing, from Su Cheng's point of view, what is the difference?

Watching Sioux City sit down, Wang Keling looked up and down Sioux City. In the petrochemical industry, they mostly met businessmen who were respectful.The attitude and behavior of Sioux City are completely different.

The Chinese side will be accompanied by two principal officials.One is Director Mao of the National Development and Reform Commission whom I met before, and the other is Mi Lihui, a younger official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Mi Lihui was full of energy and high spirits.With an elite attitude, he coughed lightly and set the tone: "Director Su, Senior Wang is our respected patriot. This meeting is mainly because Mr. Wang wants to hear your suggestions and ideas on the Haicang plan, and to unify our thinking. Develop together."

Listening to his tone, Su Cheng looked at Director Mao.

Director Mao is like a human version of a hapless bear, with his mouth curled up like a clay bodhisattva and silent.So Sioux Cheng had a calculation, and went straight to the point according to the established strategy: "When it comes to the suggestions and ideas for the Haicang plan, I hope to implement it as soon as possible. It is not a small factory or two, but a large ethylene plant and oil refining project. If possible If so, it will be completed within 24 months. Only in this way, our methanol project will not be affected and cause losses.”

Large-scale ethylene is much more complicated than large-scale methanol. 24 months is not a loose figure. If it is a domestic battle method, it may be completed, but if it is done by construction workers who work from [-] to [-].That has to start now.In other words, Sioux City asked Formosa Plastics to start building large vinyl immediately.

Wang Yongqing's eyelids moved slightly, like someone sleeping with their eyes open.

Wang Keling replied on his behalf: "Su Dong, the Haicang plan is the plan of Formosa Plastics. Therefore, the Haicang project needs to be led by Formosa Plastics. We have a series of problems to be solved. The specific time point is also one of them, so. 24 We cannot be certain that the Haicang plan will be completed in January. On the contrary, if Dahua can maintain consistency with Formosa Plastics, it will be of great benefit to the early implementation of the plan.”

"What are you waiting for?" Su Cheng tried his best to bring the conversation back to his own channel.This meeting is very rare. Wang Yongqing lives in the United States for a long time and does not return to Taiwan much every year. Even Taiwanese politicians such as legislators ** have to meet him in the United States.With Sioux City's current status, maybe he won't be able to see Wang Yongqing again until the end of the Haicang Project.

The emergence of this conversation can be regarded as an ice-breaking test for the upper strata of the mainland, which was won by Sioux City through repeated production increase stimulations, but it was just such an opportunity.If it ends in a dull manner, or proceeds according to Formosa Plastics' thinking, Sioux City will waste this opportunity.

Sure enough, Wang Keling hesitated and said, "We are waiting for the outcome of the negotiations and the mainland's response."

"If the mainland side responds, for example, if all the conditions you put forward are passed first, will you promise not to change the conditions." On such an occasion, Sioux City was prepared for almost every sentence.The conditions put forward by Formosa Plastics for the first time, after nearly two years of discussion, the mainland side did agree to all of them, but Wang Yongqing modified the conditions again for the purpose of occupying the market or other unclear purposes, requiring that 100% of the previous Vinyl products for export are changed to 100% domestic sales.This makes an export-oriented Haicang plan become another version of market-for-technology.As a result, the plan was delayed for another year.

Had it not been for the second delay, the Haicang plan might have been realized.Sioux City conjectured that the shift from the promised 100% export to 100% domestic sales, even though it was only a one-letter difference, should not be an impulsive decision.Because it represents two different strategies.

He turned his attention to Wang Yongqing.

Wang Keling smiled unconsciously, and said relaxedly: "If the requirements of both parties match each other..."

At this time, Wang Yongqing stretched out a limp hand to prevent Wang Keling from continuing.

Director Mao, pretending to be a Bodhisattva, couldn't help sitting up.

It was obviously beyond everyone's expectation that Wang Yongqing prevented Wang Keling from going back to such a simple question of right and wrong.

Surprised, Director Mao naturally thought of another answer that was either one or the other.
