According to Lu Weimin's idea, Songzhou City must identify several large-scale backbone enterprises that can support the backbone. The composition and nature are uncertain. Hualong, Lushan and Meijia were the three enterprises he selected first.

Hualong Group is a wholly state-owned enterprise with coal mining and coal chemical industry as its core industries and has a trend of diversified development. However, in Lu Weimin's view, Hualong has not chosen the right diversified channels.

Lieshan Coal Mine has good coal quality and is suitable for coking. However, although Lieshan Coal Mine is considered a large-scale coal mine in Changjiang, Changjiang's coal resources themselves are not listed nationwide. Even in Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang, the coal resources have not yet entered large-scale mining.

At the stage of , Changjiang coal resources are not ranked north of the Yangtze River, but second only to Guizhou south of the Yangtze River, especially in East China, which is even more important.

However, Changjiang's coal resources are not only distributed in Songzhou Lieshan in the north of Changzhou and Liyang in Changdong, and several counties in Fengzhou, but Qingxi and Puming are also important coal-producing areas. However, in general, Changjiang's coal resources are scattered and concentrated.

The overall scale is not large. Even the Qingmei Coal Group and the Pu Coal Group, which are among the top coal companies in the province, are very different from the coal companies in Shanxi, Henan or Shandong.

In Lu Weimin's view, China will usher in a ten-year golden development period, and as coal mines and coal chemical companies, what they need to do now is not to diversify, but to strive to make their main business bigger and stronger.

Lieshan Coal Mine originally had a second-phase construction plan, but due to unstable coal prices in the past few years, Hualang Group shelved the second-phase expansion plan to add new production capacity, and turned its development direction to diversification, such as the hotel industry, transportation

Industry.

In Lu Weimin's view, this choice is not wrong. At least the completion of the Hualang Hotel filled the gap in the high-end hotel industry in Songzhou, and the profit situation in those two years was also considerable. However, in recent years, with the increase of the Songzhou Hotel

The revival of the hotel and the rise of the Holiday Garden Hotel and Universal Hotel have affected the profitability of the Walnut Hotel, but at least the current operating conditions of the Walnut Hotel are still satisfactory.

Now the largest taxi company in Songzhou, Hualong Taxi Company, is also very profitable. Since the urban area of ​​Songzhou is quite large and scattered, and the development of the public transportation system has not kept up, it relies heavily on taxis.

, making Hualong Taxi Company's profits have been good in recent years. This is the main reason why Lei Zhilong hesitated when he discussed with Lu Weimin that Hualong was preparing to withdraw from diversification and focus on coal mining and coal chemical industry.

After all, why should a company that makes money have to exit? But many people can only see the time when it makes money, but cannot see the ups and downs of an industry.

According to Lu Weimin's idea, Hualang should consider shrinking the front line and focus on promoting the second phase expansion project of Lieshan Coal Mine as soon as possible to further expand production capacity. The production capacity of five million tons seems to be good at the moment, but in a few years

, coal mining enterprises with a production capacity of tens of millions of tons will be regarded as uncompetitive in the market. This industry is a typical industry where scale produces benefits.

To focus on coal mining and coal chemical industry, the hotel industry and transportation industry must be divested or transferred. Divesting is also a channel. After all, Hualong is a wholly state-owned enterprise in Songzhou City. It is not impossible to divest and re-establish other state-owned enterprises, but this

It is not a good choice for Hualong Group because it needs funds to further expand its main business.

It is also not a good choice for the Songzhou Municipal Government, which is currently strapped for money. Songzhou’s financial hole is huge, especially when facing this round of state-owned enterprise reform. The Songzhou Municipal Government is facing difficulties and has to spend a considerable amount of money.

Funds are required to complete this round of reforms, otherwise missing this opportunity may make the Songzhou Municipal Government even more miserable in the future.

Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. This is the almost unanimous opinion of the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. Then transfer these two high-quality assets, Hualong Hotel and Hualong Taxi Company, and use the funds obtained from the transfer to accelerate Hualong Group’s focus on coal mining and It has become inevitable to develop the coal chemical industry and support the reform of state-owned enterprises in the city.

For Lushan Group, it is a little different. Hualong Group is a wholly state-owned enterprise, and the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have control. However, Lushan Group is different. Lushan Group is a township enterprise in Lucheng County. Lushan Group must be completely subordinated to the municipal committee.

It is obviously impossible for the government to make decisions regardless of its own interests. This requires a policy of carrots and sticks.

We must not only put pressure on the Lucheng County Party Committee and County Government to do the work of Tonglushan Group, but also let Lushan Group see the sincerity of the municipal party committee and government. The municipal party committee and government are also for the next development of Lushan Group, so many workers

It must be digested that if these burdens are thrown to the Lushan Group and the Lushan Group collapses, the final result will be that this burden will return to the hands of the Songzhou Municipal Government, and it will become heavier than before.

This is also a tug-of-war negotiation process. The stick is not important, the carrot is more important, and this carrot must really make Lushan Group feel real value, so that Lushan Group can become stronger after eating this carrot.

, can afford the tasks assigned to them by the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Government.

For Lushan Group, it is important to get the full support of the municipal party committee and government for development, but it is difficult to tempt them with unrealistic promises without tangible things, so the first bait, or gift, prepared by Lu Weimin for them is

Own power plant.

For Lushan Group, which is in the expansion stage, the benefits of a self-owned power plant are self-evident. The high price of industrial electricity makes the cost of electricity remain high in production. Once it obtains the right to build a self-owned power plant,

and use rights, it will greatly reduce the production costs of Lushan Group, and at the same time, it will be fully prepared for further expansion and even diversified development. This gift is not a small gift.

However, it is not easy to obtain the qualification of a self-owned power plant. In the current situation of monopoly in the power industry, it is not easy for even a large state-owned enterprise, let alone a township enterprise, to obtain the qualification of a self-owned power plant.

The system is naturally repulsive to outsiders trying to covet its unique monopoly profits. It can be said that the power of the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government simply cannot do this. Even with the support of the Changjiang Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government, it is necessary to obtain this qualification.

It's not easy either.

At present, the State Electric Power Company has not yet separated the power plants from the grid. This situation will not occur until after 2000. In other words, when the plants and grid are integrated, you have to go in and build your own power plants, which is to steal from others.

Food, even if this food is very insignificant and not worth mentioning to the State Power Company, it is still a stimulus, or a provocation, especially for a rural enterprise. You can imagine how difficult it is.

Of course, the greater the difficulty, the greater the attraction. Otherwise, why should Lushan Group take on the huge burden thrown by the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government? They do not have this obligation and responsibility.

But just the carrot of a self-owned power plant is not enough. Lu Weimin's more profound idea is to build Lushan Group into a nationally renowned enterprise group with textile as its main industry, so that the textile industry can truly take a firm stand in Songzhou.

To become an enduring pillar industry, the development of Lushan Group must be further accelerated.

Because with the establishment of the WTO and China becoming an observer country of the WTO, China's accession to the WTO has become a general trend. Although there will definitely be difficulties and obstacles of one kind or another during this period, Lu Weimin knows that this trend is irreversible.

Once China joins the WTO, China's textile industry will usher in an unprecedented golden development period. That is to say, as long as we lay a solid foundation now, after truly joining the WTO, China's textiles will be characterized by their high quality and low price.

Wulun Advantage will drive straight into the European and American markets. By then, Lu Weimin hopes that Lushan Group can become a banner enterprise that carries Chinese textiles into the international market.

For Lushan Group, Lu Weimin's next idea is to strive to achieve public listing and become a listed company within three to five years after completing the equity reform of Lushan Group. Only in this way can Lushan Group truly have the ability to resist market risks and escape from the current situation.

There are various constraints and shackles to find a way out.

Of course, this is just an outlook. Although the current development momentum of Lushan Group is good, it is still a rural enterprise after all, and its own foundation is still insufficient. It can barely do well in the pond of Changjiang, but if it really needs a big ship to go to sea, it will have to endure

It would be hard to predict if there is a bigger storm, so Lu Weimin hopes that the people at the helm of Lushan Group can see the situation clearly and seize the opportunity to achieve this qualitative leap.

Regarding Meijia Group, a purely private enterprise, Lu Weimin has another consideration. He has contacted Yuan Lianmei and Zang Mei couple many times. It should be said that these two couples are quite knowledgeable and capable. Yuan Lianmei has a broad mind, a flexible mind, and dares to take risks.

Breaking through the original constraints, Zang Mei is calm and considerate problems more carefully. Therefore, the complementary personalities of the two people form a natural advantage, allowing Meijia Feed Factory to slowly grow from a little-known small factory to Changjiang.

It is a leading feed company, and what is even more rare is that it boldly entered the department store industry, and turned losses into profits within the same year, achieving self-replicating development.

In Lu Weimin's view, getting involved in the department store retail industry is undoubtedly a huge challenge for Meijia. At the same time, this move is also very ambitious. Looking back on the previous life, the top of China's domestic department store retail industry has been dominated by foreign giants such as Wal-Mart and Carrefour.

Due to the monopoly, the domestic retail industry can only have certain advantages in certain areas. Once it reaches the national level, it will be stretched. The establishment of its own brands by foreign retail giants has also greatly improved their own profitability, which has also made domestic retail enterprises

Hard to resist.

Yuan Lianmei and Zang Mei may create a bloody path when they enter the department store retail industry, and it is more likely that they will collapse without losing all their money. However, Lu Weimin hopes that he can do his best to support Yuan Lianmei and Zang Mei's career.

Especially if this retail giant can really emerge, it can greatly promote the development of a local consumer goods manufacturing industry.
