Section 49: The first chess
Chapter 49 The first step
Zhao Guodong, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, led the National Development and Reform Commission supervision team and his delegation arrived in Quancheng. The news that the Qilu fertilizer production enterprises were about to be inspected and investigated, spreading quickly in Shandong Province. It is said that the newly promoted deputy director was very popular with senior management, and his views were also quite sharp and sharp, which attracted people's attention.
"Governor Guanglan, I heard that this Deputy Director Zhao is still a county magistrate when you were the executive vice governor in Anyuan Province?" The middle-aged man sitting opposite the generous sofa said with a smile, "It's not simple. The 36-year-old deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission is unprecedented and has no future. Who said that the process of rejuvenating our party cadres is not doing well? Isn't this a model?"
The middle-aged man called Governor Guanglan had a gray temple, but his eyes were as sharp as lightning, and there was still a deep thoughtful expression between his eyebrows. "Well, I still have some impression of him. He was the county magistrate in a poor county in Ningling. I have been the deputy governor for 1995. This person is quite smart. In addition, he is a cadre who has been on duty from the Provincial Department of Transportation. He has some tricks and his work has been carried out very well. Hehe, Bo Ming, this person is also a talent, and he can shine anywhere if he is gold."
"The eleventh year of situation has gone from county magistrate to deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission. Isn't the leap between this? "A maroon jacket is worn on the other side, which makes the other side's red face look more rosy, especially the cheeks have a clear plateau red color. Li Boming, a popular man who has just been promoted from the Secretary-General of the Qilu Provincial Government to the Vice Governor of Qilu Province, is also the deputy secretary-general brought by Zhang Guanglan when he was transferred from the Governor of Xihai Province to the Governor of Qilu Province four years ago. After a year, he was promoted to the Secretary-General of the Provincial Government. In February this year, he was elected as Deputy Governor at the Fifth Meeting of Qilu Province.
Zhang Guanglan shook his head, as if he wanted to get rid of some of the unpleasantness brought by the past meeting, and smiled faintly: "This person was very popular when fighting floods and disaster relief in 1998. It is said that Prime Minister Guoji also praised him specifically at that time. At that time, it probably left a deep impression on the Prime Minister, but we must also be realistic and honest. This person has some skills, otherwise Ningling City would not have won the title of economic growth championship for many years. Isn't Ningling's economic miracle also spread? "
"It's that simple? Is Shangda Tian so arrogant?" Li Boming was very casual in front of his old boss. He worked together in Xihai for four years and had formed a very deep friendship. Otherwise, he would not have been selected by the other party to go to Lu Province. This is already a clear personal touch. From a certain perspective, it is a bit taboo, but the other party boldly brought himself from Xihai to Qilu.
"You are the vice governor, pay attention to your words. Of course it won't be that simple. Ning Fa and Ying Dongliu both appreciate him more, especially Ying Dongliu. Zhao Guodong's performance is very consistent with Ying Dongliu's appetite? Otherwise, Zhao Guodong was also very controversial when he was a member of the Standing Committee of the Anyuan Provincial Party Committee." Zhang Guanglan of course also knew some of the behind-the-scenes stories about Zhao Guodong being a member of the Standing Committee of the Anyuan Provincial Party Committee. To be precise, Ying Dongliu and Ning Fa helped Zhao Guodong take this critical step.
"Well, the AAPEC SME Science and Technology Expo held in Lan Island at the end of May is said to be the Deputy Director Zhao. It seems that the work in charge of this Deputy Director Zhao is quite broad." After Li Boming was elected as deputy governor, he is in charge of industry. This is also a very important position for Shandong Province, a major industrial province, which shows Zhang Guanglan's trust in him. "I saw his speech at the national fertilizer production and supply teleconference two days ago, which was very inspiring, or it was a bit alarmist, and believed that if the country does not pay attention to fertilizer production, China's grain production and fertilizer supply will inevitably suffer a crisis."
"Oh? So, this time he came out to investigate and was also targeting fertilizer production?" Zhang Guanglan didn't care too much and asked casually.
"Well, but I always feel that Director Zhao is not entirely due to fertilizer production, but also wants to understand the production potential of fertilizers and raw material resources." Li Boming's feeling is still relatively keen.
"Well, who did you arrange to pick you up?" Zhang Guanglan sighed slightly in his heart. Times have changed, times have changed, and people trained by others have grown up, but the people trained by themselves are still standing still. He shook his head and no longer thought about it.
"Lao He went there, and was arranged to be in Sofitel Ginza. I will go there later. After lunch, I may have to see several companies. Then there is a discussion after dinner. I may have to go to Yantai, Linyi, Pingyuan and other places to take a look tomorrow." Li Boming restrained his previous casualness when talking about the important matters, "Do you see if you are attending it in the evening?"
"Well, you have to go. Everyone comes is a guest, and they are all leaders." Zhang Guanglan smiled. "This new director is as sharp as you say, and his words are very sharp. I have heard some remarks and I want to see how this new director performs."
This is not the first time Zhao Guodong has been here in Quancheng. That year, he went to Landao with Qu Yunbai for a vacation and had a short stay in Quancheng. Sofitel Ginza is one of the best five-star hotels in Quancheng. It is quite appropriate for the Shandong Provincial Government to arrange the supervision and inspection team here.
Shandong Province is not only a major fertilizer production province and a major fertilizer consumption province. It is also a very representative of the domestic fertilizer market. Sinochem Group, the leader of domestic fertilizer enterprises, also has important enterprises here, and Qilu Fertilizer Group is its important production base.
During this period, the price of fertilizers fluctuated violently, especially potassium fertilizers, which had a rapid rise, which had a considerable impact on agricultural production in various places. Both the Economic Operation Bureau and the Industrial Coordination Department reported on this situation. Zhao Guodong also reported to Zeng Quanjun on this issue. Su Juehua, the vice premier in charge of industry, and Jiang Xian, the vice premier in charge of agriculture, issued instructions on the recent problems in fertilizer supply, requiring production enterprises and circulation channels to work together to ensure the supply of fertilizers during spring farming production.
It was against this background that the State Council held a national video conference on fertilizer production and supply, chaired by Bian Yaohong, Deputy Secretary-General of the State Council. The heads of relevant ministries and commissions made speeches. Finally, Vice Premier Jiang Xiancheng of the State Council made a key emphasis.
On behalf of the National Development and Reform Commission, Zhao Guodong mainly put forward some opinions and requirements for the national fertilizer production. Originally, this was just a procedural meeting, and the Ministry of State had prepared his speech for him. However, he did not talk about the problems in fertilizer production and circulation in accordance with the manuscript prepared by the Ministry of State, but he simply talked about the problems in fertilizer production and circulation in a concise manner. However, he unexpectedly talked about the sense of urgency of fertilizer production enterprises and considering how to further expand production capacity and solve the problem of insufficient production. He should also use his brain to deal with raw material problems, broaden his ideas, and creatively find sources to ensure the safety of national fertilizer demand.
The three major state-owned state-owned fertilizer production enterprises in various provinces, Sinochem, Sinopec and CNOOC, attended the meeting at the main venue in Beijing.
Zhao Guodong's unusual statement made sensitive people in the industry smell it.
The structure of domestic fertilizer production enterprises has not changed much for many years. Sinochem has always been the leader, Sinochem and CNOOC as auxiliary forces, and local fertilizer production enterprises as supplements. However, due to the demand for three main fertilizers and compound fertilizers in recent years, the demand for professional fertilizers has also undergone some new changes, and the international market has also changed. Domestic fertilizer supply always have some problems of one kind or another every year. Zhao Guodong realized this when Zhuang Yunlu reported on this issue specifically.
It would cause some criticism to fire such a cannon at the first meeting, but Zhao Guodong never thought that he could sit in this deputy director for a few years. Since it would cause controversy sooner or later, it would be better to express his views openly, so as not to be suspicious.
At the meeting, Zhao Guodong mentioned that state-owned fertilizer production enterprises should seriously consider how to optimize product structure, pay attention to upstream channels, and ensure production needs. Private enterprises should give full play to the flexible advantages of private enterprises, advocate joint mergers and reorganizations, improve scale advantages, and play to their strengths and avoid weaknesses, take the initiative to borrow ships to sea, and build a complete industrial chain.
These words seemed to be slightly off the topic of this video conference, but no one would think that the new deputy director who appeared at a national conference for the first time was just some irrelevant nonsense, especially the fertilizer manufacturers participating in the conference immediately realized the meaning revealed in Zhao Guodong's words when he debuted for the first time, and immediately began to analyze and judge the true intentions of the deputy director in charge of economic operation, industrial coordination and foreign investment.
At least after the meeting, Zeng Quanjun received several state-owned enterprise bosses including the president of Sinochem Group and the president of China Overseas Chemical Corporation, as well as the bosses of several private and joint-stock fertilizer production enterprises through various channels to understand whether the commission has any new policy spirit or guidance on the fertilizer production industry.
Zeng Quanjun also made a special appointment with Zhao Guodong for this purpose. The two of them discussed the production situation and prospects of fertilizers for an hour. This time, Zhao Guodong went to Shandong and Henan Province to inspect and supervise and investigate and brought several comrades from the Industrial Economic Research Office of the Macroeconomic Research Institute together, which was because of this intention.
The simplest and most straightforward suggestion that chemical fertilizer production cannot be made to the neck of agricultural production by Zhao Guodong to Zeng Quanjun. It is necessary to solve the bottleneck problem of chemical fertilizer production. The most urgent of the three major fertilizer species is the problem of potassium fertilizer production, and the key to the problem of potassium fertilizer production lies in the problem of potassium fertilizer resource.
