I'm really just the village head

Lu Hongtao took the money from Liu Fuwang directly and walked out.

"Hey, it's still a county magistrate..."

Secretary Liu despised it.

Liu Chunlai really envied the relationship between his father and Lu Hongtao, he hadn't experienced it before.

When he arrived at the canteen of the county government, Lv Hongtao directly ordered the food when Liu Fuwang came.

"Let's talk, what's the matter. Secretary Yan went to the city to ask someone to go and left last night..." The more Lu Hongtao thought about it, the more it became impossible.

Liu Fuwang wants to be a demon, but Secretary Xu is not there, he can't hold it down.

"It's okay, I just came to the county today to invite you to dinner..."

Lu Hongtao didn't believe it at all.

"Lv County Magistrate, we don’t want steel mills. We talked about cooperation before. If we can do what we want, the steel mills can get a very large market..." Liu Chunlai didn’t bother to look at these two dozens of years old. Fighting eye.

For this?

I had arranged everything, so that the steel factory refused to agree, and waited until Liu Chun came to find him, and then gave him the steel factory.

Got a rape?

"Now projects are starting everywhere, and there is a huge demand for steel..."

"The county wants us to pay for the transformation of the production line, right? Magistrate Lu, that one production line is tens of millions, do you think we can afford it?" Liu Chunlai looked helpless.

Sure enough, it was almost as I guessed.

"At least, it's richer than the county finance."

"The light steel plant is mainly composed of I-shaped steel and the framework on the top, with I-shaped steel as the pillar..." Liu Chunlai didn't talk nonsense. When waiting for the food, he explained the steel demand of the light steel plant.

He just saw it.

The details must be studied by the people in the steel mill.

Regarding the strength of the steel structure, the steel plant has a dedicated technical department, otherwise, it will not produce qualified steel at all.

"If this is really done, the market potential is huge, why don't you? And now there is no need to invest. With the productivity of our steel plant, it can be directly produced..." Lu Hongtao was even more puzzled.

With such a large market potential, Liu Chun will not want them?

"We are about to build a tape recorder factory to combine radios and tape recorders. The Shancheng Light Industry Bureau should agree to give a radio factory staff and equipment. As for the tape recorder production equipment, Zhao Yujun will bring it back this time..." Liu Chun said, "In addition, there may be a TV production line..."

Lu Hongtao's radio receiver began to get excited.

Listening to Liu Chun talking about the TV production line again, his breathing became quicker.

"Can you really get a TV production line?"

"It's still a color TV. I'll ask someone to help with the talk." Liu Chunlai nodded, "It is estimated that all the key components in the early stage have to be imported..."

The dishes are here.

But Lu Hongtao had no intention of eating at all.

Keep asking Liu Chunlai about these two products.

Liu Chunlai answered his questions while eating.

"Import?" Lu Hongtao was puzzled, "We don't have foreign exchange! There is not much foreign exchange available in the province. The current quota is allocated to key national enterprises and the coastal areas, unless they own foreign exchange..."

Before that, Liu Chunlai agreed to help them get 30 million US dollars in foreign exchange.

There were eight million Hong Kong dollars there, and he and Secretary Xu both believed that Liu Chunlai could get it, but that could not be done in a short time.

There is some excess capacity now.

This was caused by him and Xu Zhiqiang in order to become bigger and stronger, and now they dare not ask Liu Chunlai about this.

If Liu Chunlai just ignores them, they will be in trouble.

"We do our own foreign exchange. If nothing happens, there should be a stable source of foreign exchange in the next county. However, the Shancheng Light Industry Bureau may not let go. The county has to coordinate with them..."

So far, there is no news from Zheng Tianyou. Although Liu Chunlai is anxious, he is not worried at all.

Those styles are all internationally popular.

The current domestic market potential cannot be compared with the international market.

"Why do they want foreign exchange? Chunyu is an enterprise in our county!" Lu Hongtao suddenly became unhappy.

Is Shancheng Light Industry Bureau picking up the bargain?

Don't think about it!

"Leader, Chun Yu is in the mountain city and has contracted a hemp mill and a garment factory... In addition, they have to give a radio factory and all the supporting staff..." Liu Chunlai reminded each other.

He earns foreign exchange, and now he wants to keep the foreign exchange quota, it is unlikely.

Only when the enterprise has grown to a certain scale and helped the country earn more foreign exchange, then can we discuss the foreign exchange retention rights with the official department.

"Leader, you don't make a proper negotiation about this matter, so I am more difficult. In addition, I also need a group of radio-related professional and technical personnel..." Liu Chunlai saw Lu Hongtao fell into silence and added his own conditions.

On this matter, Liu Fuwang did not interrupt.

Tian Mingfa patronized even more.

Lu Hongtao had no appetite at all.

Finally, there was an enterprise in their county that could help earn foreign exchange. The amount of foreign exchange may not be large, but some of the points went out.

It's like finally falling in love with a beautiful woman and seeing that she is about to get married. As a result, the beautiful woman still has a husband.

The key point, this beauty seems to think that these have nothing to do with her, are there many men?

Either three people live happily together, or they lose...

What a disgusting person.

Secretary Liu finally gave a generous treat to dinner, but Magistrate Lu was in a bad mood and didn't eat a bite.

"Won't you give me the extra money?" Secretary Liu asked after Lu Hongtao checked out.

A meal costs more than one yuan.

But with the remaining eight yuan, Lu Hongtao had no intention of returning it.

Secretary Liu doesn't know much about face.

"Keep it, wait until you come next time, and then check out! After eating me for so many years, I have eaten poorly..." Lu Hongtao said angrily.

"Don't Bilian!" Secretary Liu despised even more.

Regardless of where noon was a break, a few people went straight to the steel mill.

On the top of Yanshan Temple, Lu Hongtao and Xu Zhiqiang tried it out, and Liu Chunlai directly rejected the need for steel plants.

Lu Hongtao naturally couldn't let the steel mill continue to reject Liu Chunlai according to the original plan, and forced him to accept the steel mill, right?

As he said, the efficiency of steel mills is not bad.

At least, I can feed myself.

The only thing is that the equipment is already old.

Hongqi Steel Factory was developed by a blacksmith's workshop in 1939. Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, it was integrated with Tianfu Machinery Factory. It has smelting capabilities and provides various metal accessories and materials for guns.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the machinery factory was separated from the steel factory.

Later, when New China was founded, the country developed industry, and the third-line construction period, a Romanian steel production line was shipped back, and it has become brilliant ever since.

Also because of the drastic reduction in military orders and the drastic reduction in production plans, this factory started to have no orders.

Except for some cast iron and steel materials needed by the machinery plant, they used to produce steel pipes for agricultural water conservancy projects.

The entire factory is the largest entity in Peng County.

There are more than 800 cadres and employees, and the area is quite large...

Three huge old-fashioned brick-and-tile structures, arc-shaped roofs, and towering chimneys can be seen from afar.

This is in the northeast corner of the county seat.

Coal was transported back from the neighboring Lushan County; iron ore was transported back from the neighboring Long County and the upper reaches of the Jialing River.

But now, there is no smoke from the chimney of the steel plant.

The rusty beneficiation tower stands quietly, like a late old man.

The smelting furnace may not be ignited once a month.

Next to the factory, there is a small mountain bag. On the flat ground at the foot of the mountain, whether it is a factory building or a three-story office building, it is covered with moss and looks depressed.

The cement road in the field has long been cracked.

Because there are few people walking, grass has appeared in many cracks.On both sides of the road, the grass rose wildly.

Perhaps because of the poor efficiency, no one manages the greening of the factory.

"At one time, this was the most brilliant and prosperous factory in the entire county. The steel pipes and self-contained steel pipes used in the repair, pumping and irrigation stations in the surrounding counties were all produced in this factory."

Lu Hongtao introduced Liu Chunlai to several people.

Look lonely.

"If the product meets market demand, it will also become the most prosperous industry in the county in the next few decades, and it will create greater value than the cigarette factory..." Liu Chunlai thought about the development of the steel industry in the next few decades. Very fast.

Especially when the country is engaged in infrastructure construction.

Even now, rebar for construction is not easy to buy.

It is not that steel mills are unwilling to produce this.

It's too far from the market.

To transport coal back from outside, iron ore must also be transported back from outside...

Production costs are inherently high.

Coupled with transportation costs, there is no competitiveness at all.

Therefore, the county finally decided to stop large-scale production.

"Don't you?" Lu Hongtao couldn't understand Liu Chunlai's thoughts.

Cigarette factories in the county town can earn millions of dollars a year.

Since the future prospects of steel mills are greater, why would Liu Chunlai not?

Updating the production line does require a large amount of capital, and that is not what is needed now.

Liu Chunlai looked at him, not laughing or crying.

As for you have to stuff this factory to yourself.

The layout is so unreasonable. There are no iron mines and no coal mines in the county. When the market competition is fierce in the future, when those steel plants that can reach the world's top production capacity all close down, it is estimated that this plant will not survive long ago. Up.

"Major Lu, not all industries are in line with our future plans. Steel plants are not only technology-intensive, but also capital-intensive. The investment is huge, and the demand for talent is also very large..."

"There is a shortage of people in the county. My wife has supported you..." Lu Hongtao looked dissatisfied.

Liu Chunlai did not say any more.

Since it was just off work at noon, the original plant was in three shifts when it was booming. In order to maintain temperature, save fuel and use electricity, the smelting furnace would basically not stop because of equipment maintenance or problems.

Now every day is normal working hours.

In fact, there is no need to go to work, and each employee works less than five days a month.

Other times are holidays.

Lu Hongtao often came here, and the guard did not stop him.

The production workshop is particularly quiet.

In the smelting workshop, the furnace is cold.

In the huge workshop, it gave people a gloomy feeling, which formed a huge contrast with the high temperature outside.

"The hot-rolling equipment was made from Germany at the time, but it is 38 years old..."

Lu Hongtao is very familiar with various industries in the county.

This is especially true for steel plants.

Liu Chunlai sighed.

Internationally, the equipment in the 1960s was eliminated, and now many steel production lines introduced in China are even eliminated by the little devil...

Located in the heart of the southwest, it is not surprising to see old equipment with a history of half a century before World War II.

Although many devices are mottled in appearance, they are all wiped and spotless.

Otherwise, the device cannot be seen now.

Below the beneficiation tower, there is a large pile of rusty fine iron ore; the coal beside it is also piled into a hill, half of which has been shoveled away.

"The equipment is indeed a bit backward, and the production capacity is still okay. You really don't think about it?"

After reading it, Lu Hongtao still did not give up.

Liu Chunlai shook his head directly.

Fortunately, several core leaders and technicians in the factory have arrived at this time.

"This is Party Secretary Liu Fuwang, and this is Captain Liu Chunlai... They are here today to discuss cooperation with our steel plant..." Lu Hongtao introduced father and son to the leaders of the steel plant.

The leaders of the steel plant couldn't help but stare at each other.

They were surprised that Liu Chunlai was young.

What is even more surprising is that the county magistrate has specifically instructed how to do it.

The county magistrate had specifically approached them before. If Liu Chunlai came to the iron and steel plant to discuss cooperation, he had to put on a domineering appearance, behave like an official, and the better he acted, the more rewards the county would receive.

This is different from what we discussed before!

Before the county chief’s script, they first despised the cadres of the brigade based on their status as a large state-owned factory, and then waited for them to file a complaint with the county magistrate, and the magistrate scolded them again, and asked Liu Chunlai to contract the steel plant. Up.

When Liu Chun saw them not pleasing to his eyes, he would definitely drive them out like other contracted factories...

"Director, are we still acting?" On the way to the meeting room, deputy director Bai Jianshe asked Fang Guoqiang, the deputy director, in a low voice.

Fang Guoqiang is also beating the drum in his heart.

Where does he know?

The county magistrate brought people over, without saying hello.

"Let's act according to the timing. County Magistrate Lu also does not give any answers..." He couldn't help but not complain.

The meeting room is very shabby.

Just an oval table with mottled paint on the surface.

Back then, this was something even more upscale than the county meeting rooms.

After arriving in the conference room, Liu Chunlai directly explained his intentions, "We are planning to build a new type of light steel structure factory building, and the production capacity of the factory. Just now, Mayor Lu also showed us whether it can be produced. I don’t understand..."

Without any greetings.

"Um, Captain Liu, our factory is under the management of the county, and the county..."

Seeing that Lu Hongtao hadn't said a word, Fang Qiang simply walked in front of him and started according to the script.

As soon as he spoke, Liu Chunlai narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Hongtao with a smile on his face.

County Mayor Lu's face suddenly became embarrassed.
