Chapter 650 I really can’t compare!

In the field of coal mine production, the unit responsible for enforcement is the State Coal Mine Safety Administration.

Before 1998, there was the Ministry of Coal Industry, and the domestic coal industry was also responsible for the Ministry of Coal Industry. After that, the Ministry of Coal Industry was abolished, and the country established the Coal Mine Safety Supervision Bureau to be responsible for coal mine safety work nationwide.

Therefore, this time the National Work Safety Commission came to inspect, and the Coal Mine Safety Supervision Bureau also sent people to accompany it. Coupled with coal experts, local escorts, and dozens of media reporters accompanying the team.

people.

When higher-level leaders came to inspect the work, Zhao Jinshan and Li Weidong were naturally present and accompanied them.

After listening to the work report, everyone began to inspect the coal mine site.

The leader, Director Du, watched and listened to the introduction, and would ask a few questions from time to time.

"Mr. Zhao, the equipment in your mine still looks very new!" Director Du said.

"This is all new equipment that we just updated this year!" Zhao Jinshan continued; "In the past, this mine used old equipment from the 1970s and 1980s, with low production efficiency and poor safety performance.

After Dongshan Mining took over, we immediately put the equipment update on the agenda. Not only this mine, but also the old equipment in other mines, we will also gradually update it.

According to the plan we have formulated, we plan to use two years to gradually replace all the old equipment in the coal mines with the latest ones.

It is no exaggeration to say that among all the large-scale coal production enterprises in China, our Dongshan Mining Group has the highest proportion of using new equipment, and many large state-owned coal mines are not as good as us!"

Director Du nodded with satisfaction: "As a private enterprise, Dongshan Mining is willing to spend money to invest in updating equipment. It is indeed rare. Updating so much equipment will cost a lot of money, right?"

"To be honest, our Dongshan Mining has not made a profit this year!" Zhao Jinshan laughed and continued:

“Coal prices have begun to rebound significantly this year, and the profits of various coal production companies are very good. I can’t say that they are making a lot of money, but they are also well-fed and clothed.

Naturally, we have made a lot of money, but all the money we made has been invested in buying new equipment, so there is basically no profit, and now we are barely breaking even.

However, we believe that this investment is worth it. The new equipment can greatly improve the efficiency of coal collection and enhance the safety factor of coal mine production. The investment is still worth it."

"Increasing investment in equipment and improving production efficiency will enable enterprises to gain more profits. This is a virtuous circle. This virtuous development model is also worth learning from other coal production enterprises." Director Du spoke.

These words are equivalent to affirming Dongshan Mining's move to upgrade equipment, which is a very positive evaluation.

At this moment, a man in his early forties and wearing glasses next to Director Du asked, "Mr. Zhao, your new equipment can definitely greatly improve the mining efficiency, right? I don't know if your current recovery rate can reach

How many?"

The man who spoke was none other than Han Qing, an associate professor at the University of Mining and Technology.

Han Qing was entrusted by others, so he naturally wanted to be loyal to others, so he took action at this time.

Zhao Jinshan did not realize that Han Qing was here to cause trouble, so he replied: "Currently our recovery rate can reach 35%!"

"Why is it only 35%?" Han Qing showed a puzzled expression.

Zhao Jinshan quickly added: "Before upgrading the new equipment, our recovery rate was only 20% to 25%. Now it has increased by 10% to 15%. If the new equipment is run in again, the recovery rate can be increased to

40%.”

"40% is still too little!" Han Qing continued; "The recovery rate of large state-owned coal mining enterprises can often reach 70% to 75%, so your production efficiency is only half of theirs!"

"Among private coal production companies, our recovery rate is already high. Many small coal mines contracted by individuals have a recovery rate of less than 20%." Zhao Jinshan immediately retorted.

"That's why the country plans to gradually close down small coal mines with low production efficiency!" Han Qing paused and continued;

"Although our country has a lot of coal reserves, coal is a non-renewable resource after all. Every ton dug out equals one ton lost, so waste caused in the production process should be avoided as much as possible.

It now appears that there is still serious waste in the production process of Dongshan Mining, which also shows that your coal mining technology also needs to be further improved.

Eliminating backward production capacity has always been an important task in my country's coal production. Even if you increase the recovery rate to 40%, it is still not up to standard.

Mr. Zhao, I think your Dongshan Mining Group needs to improve its production technology as soon as possible! Otherwise, these mines are likely to face the risk of being closed down in the future."

These words seem to be a well-intentioned reminder to Dongshan Mining to improve its production technology, but in fact they are exposing Dongshan Mining's old background. They are equivalent to telling Director Du and other leaders that Dongshan Mining's production efficiency is low and the mines are all backward production capacity. They should

was shut down.

Zhao Jinshan and Li Weidong are both smart people, and at this moment they can already see that Professor Han from the University of Mining and Technology is here to cause trouble.

The two looked at each other, and both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

"Zhao Jinshan also looked very confused, which means he didn't know why Han Qing would deliberately find trouble. Could it be that Han Qing was just idle and deliberately showing off his knowledge to gain a sense of presence in front of the leaders?" Li Weidong thought to himself.

So Li Weidong decided to test it out, and he said: "The recovery rate is too low, which is also a problem that has been bothering us. For this reason, Dongshan Mining has begun to adopt a variety of methods to improve the productivity of the mine.

Purchasing new equipment is just one of the directions of our efforts. As Professor Han said, improving production technology is also something we have been doing. I believe that as technology continues to improve, our recovery rate will continue to improve."

Under normal circumstances, that would be enough. Dongshan Mining admitted that the recovery rate was too low and expressed its willingness to improve technology. This not only recognized Han Qing's statement, but also expressed its stance to the leadership.

As far as inspection work is concerned, this has given everyone a step to step down. If Han Qing was just trying to gain a sense of presence in front of the leadership, he would have achieved his goal and it was time to stop.

However, Han Qing refused to give in. He asked: "How much can the recovery rate be increased? If the recovery rate is only increased by a few percent, it will not make much sense at all. There will still be a lot of waste."

"It seems that it is not as simple as building a sense of presence in front of the leaders. This Professor Han is coming for our Dongshan Mining!" Li Weidong thought to himself.

Li Weidong took his time and asked, "What recovery rate do Professor Han think we should achieve?"

Han Qing thought for a few seconds and answered: "Dongshan Mining is a private enterprise, and its technology is certainly not comparable to that of large state-owned coal production companies, and the recovery rate is certainly not as high as that of large state-owned coal production companies. However, 60%

The recovery rate should be there after all, right?”

"Okay, we will increase capital investment, work hard to improve production technology, and increase the recovery rate to 60%." Li Weidong said with a smile.

Li Weidong's words were tantamount to his second statement of stance, and once again set the stage for both parties.

But Han Qing had no intention of taking advantage of the situation. He went on to say: "Actually, a recovery rate of 60% is like getting 60 points in an exam. It can only be regarded as just passing. It cannot be said to be good, let alone excellent.

This still produces a lot of waste.

I have carefully looked at the relevant data of the mine before. This is considered a high-quality mine. If the production technology is appropriate, reaching a recovery rate of 70% should not be a problem.

Although there is only a 10% difference between 60% and 70%, given the scale of coal mines controlled by Dongshan Mining, this 10% gap is also a big number, and the waste generated is also huge!"

Li Weidong narrowed his eyes slightly and thought to himself: "Professor Han really has no end! We don't have any deep hatred for him. Is it worth his persistence? What benefits can he get from targeting us like this? Is it possible to collect money to do things?

"

Li Weidong has realized that Professor Han is afraid that he was invited by other competitors to deliberately cause trouble for Dongshan Mining.

"If you can persuade people, I can persuade others too! You invite a professor from the University of Mining and Technology, but I invite many French engineers!"

Thinking of this, Li Weidong no longer gave Han Qing face, but said: "Professor Han's judgment is still too conservative. We have such good mine resources, and a recovery rate of 70% is not enough! Our goal of Dongshan Mining

, is to increase the recovery rate to 80%!”

"80%!" Everyone was shocked. Li Weidong's boast was indeed a bit big.

Han Qing was the first to react. He smiled coldly and said, "Chairman Li, you are really joking. Those large state-owned coal production enterprises cannot reach the recovery rate of 80%. You, a private enterprise,

How is it possible to achieve it!”

"If others can't do it, it doesn't mean that we can't do it too!" Li Weidong smiled slightly and then said: "Professor Han, don't underestimate our private enterprises. Apart from other things, when it comes to microwave ovens, state-owned enterprises can do it."

But we are puppy appliances!”

Han Qing snorted coldly: "Chairman Li is really brave, but you probably don't know what an 80% recovery rate means, right? Mines in developed countries in Europe and the United States have an 80% recovery rate."

"Professor Han is right, we set our own requirements based on the standards of developed European countries." Li Weidong said with a smile.

"Self-requirements? I teach at the University of Mining and Technology. I have many students. When they were in high school, they also set self-requirements based on the standard of taking Tsinghua University.

As a result, after the college entrance examination scores came out, they could only go to our University of Mining and Technology. Of course, it’s not bad to go to the University of Mining and Technology. There are many people who want to get into Tsinghua University, but they can’t even pass the undergraduate level!”

Han Qing showed a mocking expression as he spoke, and then said: "As for the goal, it doesn't matter how high it is, the key is whether you have the ability to achieve it!

For example, the standards of developed European countries are an unattainable goal and cannot be achieved. Instead of putting satellites here, it is better to seek truth from facts and set an achievable goal."

Li Weidong immediately responded rudely: "For Professor Han, the standards of developed European countries are unattainable. After all, Professor Han's level is limited to this.

If Professor Han usually came into contact with higher-level scholars or higher-level technicians and had a broader vision, he probably wouldn't have this idea."

Seeing that Li Weidong decided to break up with him, Han Qing didn't take it into consideration, but directly said: "My vision is not broad enough? I am an associate professor at the University of Mining and Technology after all. I have better expertise in coal production than you, right?"

Li Weidong smiled coldly: "I am an entrepreneur. As long as I understand the management of the enterprise, I don't need to know so much professional technology in coal production. As for professional technology, our Dongshan Mining has a special technical department responsible for this kind of thing."

"According to what you say, your technical staff at Dongshan Mining are better than me, an associate professor at the University of Mining and Technology? I would like to see which famous professor is in charge of your technical department!" Han Qing said immediately.

"Okay, in that case, I will invite all leaders to inspect our technical department." Li Weidong said, looking at Han Qing, and then said: "By the way, I also want Associate Professor Han to broaden his horizons!"

Li Weidong directly called Han Qing "Associate Professor Han", which was a loss of face at all.

The word "vice" made Han Qing feel a little worried. He snorted coldly and said, "I want to see what kind of god you are pretending to be and what kind of ghost you are doing!"

…

Under the leadership of Li Weidong, everyone came to the temporary workplace built for the group of French engineers in the mine.

As soon as they entered the door, those bearded Frenchmen immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Why are they all foreigners!" Han Qing was shocked.

Director Du also looked at Li Weidong with a puzzled look, and then asked: "Chairman Li, are these foreigners your technical personnel from Dongshan Mining?"

Li Weidong smiled and nodded: "The leader has good vision. Before I introduced him, you could tell that we hired a foreign coal mine engineer!"

Director Du couldn't help but rolled his eyes and thought to himself: Do you need to praise me for this? I'm not blind, can I see that these are foreigners?

But Han Qing felt a little guilty at this time. He never expected that Li Weidong's trump card turned out to be a group of foreign engineers.
