super energy power

Jichai Power Plant.

The wide concrete road was cleaned cleanly, and the houses on both sides were also freshly painted.A clear small river is brought in from outside the factory area, and then sent out in a meandering way. Several man-made stone bridges immediately give the factory a sense of history.

Su Cheng and the others moved forward along the river.

This time, his first task was to meet Lin Yonggui.However, in order not to attract the attention of the media and other organizations, he came in the name of inspecting Jichai Power Plant.

Shu Lan held Su Cheng's arm and smiled at the introduction of Chai Ren.

She often attends public events with Sioux City, and she can't help but praise at this time: "The factory area is really beautiful, especially the stone arch bridge, which has a strong Chinese style."

Chen Zunian walked beside him briskly, and said with pride and emotion: "This is chaired by Chairman Chen of our trade union before he retired. We went to Hong Kong a few years ago, and when we came back, we thought, when can our factory be It’s also made so clean... By the way, our factory’s hospital and school have the same style, among other things, every year we go to the university to hold job fairs, and posting pictures of the factory is more useful than any publicity.”

"Everyone wants to work in a beautiful environment." Su Cheng nodded in approval.

Chen Zunian raised his eyes to look at Su Cheng, saw that his expression had not changed, and took the opportunity to say: "So, the school and hospital of our factory can stay?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Oh, I heard that the strategy department of the group seems to have a plan to cancel the school and the hospital, saying that it will cost too much." Ji Chai's hospital and school were established in the early years.After the decline of Jichai Engine Factory, everything became an empty shell.However, with the revival of Jichai in recent years, the annual income of hundreds of millions has also revived schools and hospitals, but the mode of operation is different. Free medical care and free admission have been terminated, replaced by medical insurance and subsidies admission.Even so, Chen Zunian has been a state-owned enterprise employee for most of his life.Still hoping to keep them.

Su Cheng didn't deny it, saying: "The plan to cancel schools and hospitals has indeed been made, but whether it will be implemented or not depends on you."

Chen Zunian was refreshed, and hurriedly said, "Say it."

Ever since he heard that Su Cheng was coming to inspect, he had been thinking about how to raise this matter.Now that I have an opportunity, I will not let it go.

Su Cheng gestured backwards.Zhang Chao stood up and said: "Jichai's public facilities such as schools and hospitals, we will divide them into two parts and deal with them differently. The public facilities currently owned by the group and those that will be acquired in the future will also be treated in the same way. .”

Taking a breath, he looked at the engrossed Jichai people around him, and said: "Public facilities will be distributed in two ways: profitable and non-profitable. For profitable public facilities, they will be placed in the group's public affairs department. Jurisdiction. Unprofitable public facilities will also be divided into two types. One is public facilities exclusive to the branch company, such as factories and hospitals. The branch company will be responsible for its own profits and losses and set a safety line. 1% of the profit can continue to be invested. If it exceeds the warning line of 2%, it is necessary to reduce expenditure. If it exceeds 2.5%, it will be subject to compulsory disposal. For Jichai, your profit last year was 3.8 million yuan, so the annual expenditure of all public facilities of this type should be controlled within Between 380 million and 760 million, if it exceeds 950 million, it must be closed or sold. Agree?"

Although it seemed to be walking on the main road, Chen Zunian knew it.Zhang Chao's words must have been inspired by Su Cheng, and it was an informal notice.

He looked back and found no objection, so he said softly: "That's good, it can control expenses. You just said that non-profit public facilities are also divided into two types. What is the other?"

"Another public facility that is beneficial to all companies under the group. For example, vocational and technical schools can serve all companies in the group, and the same is true for research institutes and research institutes. They are public facilities shared by the group and will be managed by the local branch. The company and the group invest in proportion. The setting of the safety line is not only set according to the profit of the branch, but also according to the profit of the group. At present, it is still 1%, 2% and 2.5%. Profit is calculated on a basic basis. One thing to explain is that kindergartens and primary and secondary schools, which are also educational institutions, are public facilities exclusively owned by the branch, and the head office will not be responsible.” Zhang Chao knew that Ji Chai would agree.Today is not the same as before, not to mention private enterprises, even state-owned enterprises are calling for light travel.

What it means to pack lightly is to abandon the former welfare departments, such as hospitals, schools, sanitation, and even poorly managed tertiary industry companies, or throw them to the society, or sell them and close them, so as to gather funds and participate in market competition through core businesses.

However, as long as there are no state-owned enterprises in crisis, there is always the urge to benefit.FAW is an obvious example. During the wave of downsizing in the 90s, they threw their heavily indebted factories and hospitals to the government, leaving behind a large amount of debt and redundant staff, as well as an annual financial burden of several million yuan.However, after [-], FAW regained its business vitality, and the factory and hospital were built again, with more expenditure and higher funds.

From the perspective of Sioux City, it is the most economical to use the security system provided by the government and society.However, an old factory like Jichai has its own factories, hospitals and staff schools. It is better to restrict and rectify them than to abandon them. This can also improve the competitiveness of enterprises from another aspect.

After all, the competition of large enterprises is, in the final analysis, the competition of talents.When the end of the 90s and the embers of the Cold War disappear, companies all over the world will more or less introduce benefits. In the future, Google and Microsoft will spend hundreds of millions of dollars to build the most luxurious office area in the world. GM Toyota will spend hundreds of millions of dollars every year. Dividing dividends and rewards to employees is not intended to compete for talents.

As a private enterprise, Dahua Industry stands in the gap between state-owned enterprises and government agencies. If it wants to compete for talents, it cannot learn from the short-sightedness of state-owned enterprises.

As far as Dahua is concerned, they are not short of funds, but rather lack of people who use these funds.For example, at this moment, if several million hospital funds can be exchanged for dozens of employees who understand Central Asian languages ​​and customs, Sioux City will definitely have no hesitation.The next best thing is to use benefits that exceed the standards of state-owned enterprises to attract a large number of newly graduated foreign language students, Sioux City will be happy.

The foreign language majors in the early 90s were really in high demand, unlike the years later.

Especially for young people who are learning small languages, the competition will only be stronger than when Sioux City graduated.Dozens of government units competed for a French or German student.This kind of grand scene can only appear in a dream for the later generations of college students who were born in the 90s.

1993 will be the first year that China welcomes multinational companies.This year, Rong Yiren, a representative of the Chinese business community, became the country's vice president, and the country's president invited representatives of 15 multinational companies to meet in Zhongnanhai.Also this year, Motorola will join the global board of directors.Moved from the United States to hold in China.

Chinese enterprises are eager to cooperate with foreign enterprises, while foreign enterprises.And desperately want to go in.

At no other time has China been so lacking in language talent.

Sioux City and his Dahua Industrial will never be afraid of competition.Whether it is competition in the market, competition in government relations, or competition in talents.

The strongest competition often means the biggest profits.

If benefits can enhance Dahua's competitiveness, Sioux City will only support it.

After everyone digested the new information brought by Zhang Chao, Su Cheng took over the conversation and said, "Dahua Industry. Although it is a private company, it is also an enterprise owned by the employees. When Jichai Engine Factory formulated the welfare plan, It must be considered that what you spend is the profit created by all the employees of the company. Everyone present is listed on the company's special contribution list. In this case, you have to realize that the company's dividend plan. If the rate exceeds 7%, dividends will be distributed proportionally according to the excess amount. Welfare expenditures will reduce the company's profits and affect everyone's dividends, so we must be cautious. Strict supervision and control. If because If the welfare exceeds the standard and attracts the opposition of the employees, then the loss outweighs the gain.”

Everyone nodded.Chen Zunian and other managements transferred from state-owned enterprises have deeply realized that the days of endless benefits are gone forever.

Zhang Chao then talked about the issue of the group's newly established public affairs department and the issue of strengthening branch management.These words.If the strategy department alone interviewed the branch, the effect would definitely not be very good, but with Sioux City in charge, no one dared to say no.

After the serious words were finished, Su Cheng said to Chen Zunian with a smile: "Director Chen will be retiring next year, what do you think?"

Dahua's retirement system continues the style of state-owned enterprises. Currently, those who are eligible to retire are actually the management of the enterprise. Although the country's social security system has not been established, the resettlement is good.This is an easy topic.

Chen Zunian smiled and said: "I am in good health, I am going to learn from Chen Liang, build a house with a yard, and tend some flowers and plants."

"Do you want to use the remaining heat?"

"Ok?"

"Go to the strategy department of the group as a consultant, give advice to young people, and train some talents for Dahua." Su Cheng said sincerely.

Chen Zunian opened his mouth, hesitantly said: "Is this okay?"

"Foreign business leaders are often over 70 years old. If you are willing to continue working, then come to help Dahua for another 10 years."

"That... that's good." Naturally, Chen Zunian didn't really want to go home to tend the flowers and plants, and his mood, which was a little gloomy because of Zhang Chao's words just now, brightened instantly.

Chen Zunian was originally the old factory director of Jichai Engine Factory. After retirement, his life has been settled, and other people are also happy for him.The emotions generated by the group's strict control also quietly dissipated.

Just like officials, senior corporate officials hope to serve as long as possible as long as they are in good health.From Sioux City's point of view, it is not a bad thing for experienced managers to stay in office for a longer time in an era of talent shortage.Transferring Chen Zunian to the Group's Strategy Department as a consultant will open up a channel that will not affect the promotion of other employees, and will also ensure that the interests of the managers and the group are consistent.

As for Chen Zunian's appointment, Sioux City was planning to transfer Li Huanxiang to Jichai Engine Plant.Such an airborne naturally required detailed preparations.

Li Huanxiang's qualifications are sufficient, but Jichai, as the branch with the largest number of people under Dahua, cannot be treated roughly.

The highlight of the visit is Jichai's vocational school.This place and the training base in Haicang jointly provide places for Dahua's two major technicians.The students who go to school here have signed an agreement. They must first be screened in the Dahua system, and if there are any leftovers, they will be left to other factories in the society.With the current expansion speed of Dahua Industrial, there are not many remaining students, but there are not many, so more people are attracted to sign up.

With the decline of state-owned enterprises, China's demand for workers has decreased on the one hand.On the other hand, there is an increased demand for skilled workers.Such a contradiction will be difficult to resolve in another year.

After a brief meeting with the school's teachers, Su Cheng went to the experimental factory again. In the lathe worker's workshop, he asked everyone to stay outside under the pretext of resting.

In the lounge, Lin Yonggui had been waiting there a long time ago.

He changed into yellow-gray overalls.The hair was also extremely dry and matted like straw.If you only look at the back.Everyone thought he was a factory master.

Su Cheng stretched out his hand a little funny, and said, "Secretary Lin."

"Su Dong." Lin Yonggui held Su Cheng's hand tightly.

In the previous two days' meeting, although the expected task had been completed, it still made him feel frustrated, but his trust in Sioux City had improved.

After a few short words of gossip, Lin Yonggui went straight to the topic and said, "I asked someone to study it. At present, the possibility of the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline is relatively high. And the China-Arabia oil pipeline...well, the political situation in Azerbaijan It is not very stable, and the country probably will not approve it. Therefore, we may first build a China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline. The first phase of the pipeline will start from the Aktobe oil region and go to Alashankou on the China-Kazakhstan border. From there, it will be transported to Karama* From Yiyi to the mainland, the second phase of the pipeline. We can extend to Atyrau, the Caspian Sea port in western Kazakhstan, so that we can buy oil from the entire Caspian Sea region.”

This is similar to what Su Cheng understood. He nodded in agreement and asked, "What about the length?"

"The first phase is about 800 to 1 kilometers, and actual surveying and mapping is required. The second phase of the pipeline will exceed 0 kilometers. 00 kilometers is also possible. If it is extended to Azerbaijan, it will increase by about 2500 kilometers." Lin Yonggui patted his forehead. , smiled and said: "As long as the agreement can be signed, I will use the remaining time to complete this work."

"Fuel delivery?"

"1000 million tons, per year."

"It is best to use 00 million tons per year, and the follow-up transportation capacity of 5000 million tons is the basis." Sioux Cheng explained: "The domestic oil consumption is increasing day by day. I think Japan should be used as a benchmark, considering the demand in 20 years and 30 years. "If it is completed in five years, Dahua will be able to consume 00 million tons.I'm afraid that when the time comes, everyone won't give us this opportunity. "

Lin Yonggui also laughed, and then said: "Well, one million tons is one million tons. In this way, the cost will increase dramatically, and the time will also increase."

If the normal speed is used to complete the 1-kilometer oil pipeline, it will take about 0 to 4 years, which is considered fast.The time for signing the agreement may be uncertain, but it takes one or two years, which is nothing at all.The An-Da line in history, the Anna line pursued by Japan, and the China-Kazakh line that China succeeded in the end, were not negotiated once or twice.

The leaders of China, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Japan have struggled with the oil pipeline issue for several years.Relevant issues will be discussed in every summit meeting or ministerial meeting.Year after year of discussion does not necessarily solve the problem.At the beginning, Russia expected to occupy the Chinese oil market, so it actively promoted the Sino-Russian oil pipeline. However, in the 90s, Middle East oil was relatively cheap, and China seemed to prefer shipping.After a period of delay, Putin came to power, began to lean towards the European market, and then stepped in in Japan. The Sino-Russian oil pipeline, which was half discussed, returned to the original point, and it was not officially over until Yukos was swallowed by Putin.As for the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline, in fact, it has been waiting for the China-Russia oil pipeline, and then rolled in the quagmire of all kinds of skyrocketing prices.

Compared with several countries in Central Asia, Russia's political, economic and energy advantages are much greater. It is understandable that the Sino-Russian pipeline ranks first.If it wasn't for knowing that the Anda-Dalian line would not work, Sioux City would not advance the China-Kazakhstan line. The cost of Caspian oil is always higher than that of mature Russian oil.

However, few people would have imagined that there would be an iron-blooded party member like Putin in Russia, who would completely wipe out the seven arrogant oligarchs in the Yeltsin era and completely disintegrate the mighty Yukos oil company.

Sioux City wrote down the numbers Lin Yonggui said on the paper, read it again, and said, "The China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline is also possible. We will talk about the specific design details of the oil pipeline later. I want to talk about speeding up the construction time." question."

Lin Yonggui sat down firmly, and said: "I have never tried foreign bidding, please tell me."

Sioux City habitually looked outside the door, making sure that there were only the two of them in the workshop, and then said softly: "To bid for oil pipelines in Central Asia, there are no other than two means. One is to ask the Chinese government to come forward. Contact the oil pipeline One is to ask the Kazakh government to come forward and contact the pipeline. Between our companies, we can only discuss economic accounts."

"So, we want to ask the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or a certain leader of the State Council to come forward?" Lin Yonggui tilted his head, as if he had already begun to consider candidates.For public affairs.There's nothing shameful about looking for connections, and you might even be able to form new ones.

Su Cheng smiled.Said: "I think, the first thing to do is to communicate with the Kazakhstan government?"

"Ah? How to do it." Lin Yonggui was stunned.Dahua and Shengli Oilfield are Chinese companies.

"Of course there are many ways." Su Cheng curled his lips and said, "I think the most direct one is the exchange of funds."

Lin Yonggui thought for a while before he realized that the exchange of funds was bribery.

He was a little surprised, but not surprised.

The two of them met in such a secret, naturally they wanted to talk about some things that were inconvenient to talk about in formal occasions.But in international business activities, bribery has always been able to play a role of four or two.Especially in countries with incomplete political and economic systems.

Kazakhstan is a newly established Commonwealth of Independent States. Its domestic trade policies and even its political program are probably incomplete. If you want to follow the rules in everything, you will never get anything done.

Compared with politicians in European and American countries, or spies in the former Soviet Union, politicians in Central Asian countries are not too greedy.At least after receiving the money, I will say thank you.

Rather than engage in insincere, protracted intergovernmental negotiations, it is indeed easier to conduct deals behind the scenes.

Lin Yonggui muffled: "After the funds are released, will the Kazakhstan government take the initiative?"

"Yes. This will reduce our pressure. In addition, Kazakhstan's government income is very low, and their only hope is oil revenue, so the conditions have always been very harsh. If you release funds, you may get better conditions."

Lin Yonggui has no psychological burden on bribery.Since China's reform and opening up.Foreign capital often obtains benefits through bribery, and his focus is more on negotiations: "What is your ideal condition?"

"Establish a separate pipeline company, each party will own 50% of the equity, and purchase oil freely." Dahua has already had a plan.

Oil pipelines are like oil highways. Although they require high operating costs, such as heating and repairing pipelines, the toll fees are also high.Even if calculated according to the price in the 90s, a fee of more than US$1 per barrel of oil is charged, and a million tons is more than US$00 million.

This amount of money can easily increase to 3 million US dollars in the future.For Kazakhstan, this is worth more than their state capital, so naturally they will not let it go easily.

Aside from immediate profits, the freedom to purchase oil is an important privilege.For example, whether Azerbaijan's oil can be transported through this oil pipeline is determined by the terms of the oil purchase.

If Kazakhstan decides where the oil coming through the pipeline comes from, they will probably ask China to only buy crude oil from Kazakhstan.In this way, even if Sioux City gets the oil from Azerbaijan, it still has to be transshipped through Turkey, which will increase the cost and trouble a lot.

In the Caspian Sea area, where the traffic conditions are tense, it is decisive to be able to grasp the impact of oil pipelines on the oil territory.

Especially when the price of oil is rising, which oil company's oil is transported first by the oil pipeline, and which oil company's oil is transported later, and how much is transported, is worth millions of dollars every minute.

During the Gulf War, the Strait of Hormuz was blocked, and Sioux City tried every means to transport as much oil from the Seitan Oilfield as possible through powerful people, and the power of powerful people lies in the control of oil pipelines.

In normal seasons, the Middle East has the advantage of shipping, but in Kazakhstan, the main channel for oil from oil-producing areas to consumption areas is oil pipelines.

No matter which country Kazakhstan does business with, it has never relaxed its power over oil pipelines.

Lin Yonggui was not familiar with the oil environment in Central Asia, and thought that Sioux City was just making an ordinary request. After all, it was only a 50% stake, which was normal for a joint venture company. Therefore, he skipped the question and said, "We want How much money do you have prepared?"

He was talking about bribe money.

Su Cheng didn't blink, and said, "My idea... If the other party agrees to each 50.00% and let us decide the conditions of oil procurement, we will give as much as we want."

Only then did Lin Yonggui realize the harshness of the conditions, he looked up at Su Cheng, and said, "There must be a limit."

Su Cheng spread out his palm and stretched out five fingers.

Lin Yonggui was surprised: "500 million dollars?"

"Multiply by 10."

Lin Yonggui was shocked from ear to ear.

$5000 million, perhaps only a few percent of the cost of the oil pipeline.But in total, it's just too big.In his mind, he was still in the thinking mode of carrying a bottle of wine and doing things through the back door.

Su Cheng tapped the wall with his finger, and said, "Shengli Oilfield is not easy to get this part of the funds, so Dahua Industrial will be responsible."

"Okay." Lin Yonggui's voice sank, and then said: "In this way, if the Chinese side gets 50% of the pipeline company's shares, Shengli Oilfield can give up a few more points."

"That's fine." Su Cheng said in his mouth, and added a sentence in his heart: That's it for now.

He didn't really want a stake in the pipeline company that much.Because the pipeline company is a very sensitive issue, it is easy to be raised to the height of national security, and the profits of the pipeline company are not in his eyes.However, pipeline companies have great influence. If you can avoid the issue of shares and only obtain the influence brought by pipelines, that would be perfect.

But how to do it, Sioux City has no answer.
