Chapter 61: Make some efforts

"Wrong! Guodong, don't put these fake hats on your head. It is inevitable to go out. The companies under the Ministry of Energy are far better than those of our other industries in this regard. Of course, this may also be related to the nature of the Ministry of Energy's enterprises and the strength of national support. However, the root cause is the same, that is, we must all deeply realize that from a certain perspective, our country is no longer the land that is big and vast, but the land is big and vast.

Liu Yan sighed and crossed his legs and also stopped. "In addition to the enterprises directly under the Ministry of Energy, our resource industries under our State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission are also facing such problems. The shortage of upstream resources in steel, electrolytic aluminum, fertilizers, and these industries has evolved from cyclical problems to normal problems. The constraints of upstream resources on downstream industries are becoming more and more obvious, and it is constantly eroding the profits of downstream industries. On this issue, our State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission also has a special research team studying it."

"So since there is a special research team, what are the conclusions drawn?" Zhao Guodong asked with great interest.

"Digging potential internally, expanding externally, and more importantly, expanding externally." Liu Yan smiled: "It's just that our State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission is still discussing this view, but I didn't expect that you will first expose it in the fertilizer industry."

"Hehe, then it seems that I'm going to be a pioneer. Should you give me a successful award?" Zhao Guodong also laughed at it, "SASAC since your SASAC has already formed this view, what are you waiting for?"

"Rome was not built in one day. To implement the perspective, we need to select points and expand outward risks. Especially as a state-owned enterprise, we need to consider the pressure and public feelings of entering the country where the industry is upstream resources. This is the most difficult to grasp. As the country's influence continues to grow, some negative factors will gradually emerge. I believe you should also understand the embarrassment of being a state-owned enterprise." Liu Yan said calmly.

Zhao Guodong nodded. Liu Yan was not the kind of inaction like Liu Ruotong said, or he was criticized in his style and style, but he was also outstanding in his ability. His analysis and judgment proved this.

The children of these red family were almost immersed in the water of the ***. Each cell was full of sensitivity to the ***. They could feel the different taste of the slightest change in the wind. This was their advantage and their disadvantage. They would worry too much about the negative effects of these *** factors and become more cautious. This is sometimes wise, but sometimes they lose some opportunities.

China's continuous growth in national strength also shocked the world, and also gave European and American countries the opportunity to criticize and slander. The Chinese threat theory is rampant. They use their powerful media power to hype and create momentum, domestically as the basis for increasing national defense spending, and externally fanning the flames, creating an encirclement around China, and instigating the anti-China factions in areas with frequent economic and trade with China, and inciting the danger of China's "economic invasion", which achieved quite good results.

It is precisely because of these reasons, and when domestic companies go out, they have not yet truly adapted to this unconventional confrontational method, which has caused some disputes and conflicts in many fields in the early stage, and state-owned enterprises have been repeatedly frustrated in the development of overseas investment.

"So I support private enterprises to play their strengths in these fields. Well, if we can form a cooperation situation with state-owned enterprises, I think this should be the best." Zhao Guodong did not hide his support for private enterprises to enter the original monopoly field of state-owned enterprises in front of Liu Yan.

"Guodong, are you deliberately showing off in front of me or why? The SASAC has the position of the SASAC. Don't say anything about it in front of me. Don't think that your NDRC is born by an aunt. Everyone has to nod like a chicken pecking at rice. Who has no such thing as a silly scripture? There are so many large state-owned enterprises under the SASAC, which are related to the survival issues of many state-owned enterprises. Not to mention that they also shoulder the responsibility of national industrial security. Even if there are more control in some areas, it is formed by history. It is still safe now. It may not necessarily be necessary to break the current pattern to be considered a reform."

"Brother Yan, I think you don't have enough confidence in saying this. What control is not the right to control? You just say that monopoly is OK. Are you responsible for the survival of state-owned enterprise employees? Is it more important for state-owned enterprise employees or all workers more important? Do you have to take monopoly measures to consider the survival of state-owned enterprise employees? Look at the gap in income levels between state-owned enterprise employees and other industries in the country, don't you blush? If your state-owned enterprise is really good and your profits are high, is that true? You are all sensible people, don't treat the people as fools."

Zhao Guodong was not polite, and he also had a brief understanding of the affairs of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. Although Liu Yan had a deputy *** and deputy director in the committee, the other deputy directors were not fuel-efficient. They each had their own skills and had a lot of opinions on several issues, which was also passed to Zhao Guodong through some channels.

Liu Yan also laughed, "Guodong, don't talk about anything else. If you really want to start the operation, you have to start with the companies under the Ministry of Energy you used to work. State-owned enterprises undertake industrial security and the survival of state-owned enterprise employees. This is a fact. Of course, you have to say that monopoly in certain fields also exists to a certain extent, but this requires a process. We cannot risk sacrificing industrial security to achieve so-called opening up, right?"

"Okay, Brother Yan, don't say anything about industrial security in front of me. Can you say that the current management model of the SASAC ensure the safety of the industry? I will do a simple survey. In just a few years, in some industries such as building materials, mining and even aluminum, private enterprises have difficulty in survival and have to move closer to foreign capital. Once the market network resources of private enterprises are controlled by foreign capital who are not familiar with the domestic market but have strong capital strength, it will really have a huge impact on state-owned enterprises that are arrogant and do not want to make progress but only try to suppress private enterprises through government administrative functions, which will in turn affect the security of the entire industry."

Zhao Guodong talked freely, and a quiet luster flashed in his eyes.

"To give a simple example, I got a news that Uni-China Group, the third largest lubricant company in China, is facing operational difficulties and is very likely to sell it to foreign capital. Do you think this will have a huge impact on the domestic lubricant industry? Uni-China's market share is third, second to Sinopec and PetroChina, and even has a higher share than Shell, BP, and Exxon. Why can't it continue to operate? I don't think it needs to be said of the reason, right?"

Liu Yan sighed softly. He only learned about the unification situation. Soon after, the rise in international oil prices forced Unification, which had no source of base oil, to purchase from the international market, and its costs soared. Domestic petrochemical giants can take measures to cut off oil from private enterprises at will. In this case, although the difficulty of unified operation is not entirely due to the monopoly of the domestic oil industry by state-owned enterprises, it is indeed a very fatal factor.

"I also heard Uni-President's reaction. If Uni-President is really going to be acquired by foreign capital, then the Ministry of Commerce..." Liu Yan frowned.

"It seems difficult to raise a private lubricant enterprise such as foreign-invested mergers and acquisitions to an independent level that endangers the safety of the industry, right? At least at present, you can't say that the unified merger and acquisitions of foreign-invested mergers and acquisitions can cause a fatal blow to the lubricant industry of Sinopec, but what if it lasts for a long time?" Zhao Guodong said coldly: "If you use the veto clause at will, do we still have to abide by the WTO rules?"

Liu Yan was speechless.

"Okay, Brother Yan, don't say these depressing words. Some things you said may take some time, but I think we have to do something. The person named Zhao was pushed to the forefront of the storm. He was mediocre and timid and could not do it for a year or two, but he always felt a little frustrated and unwilling to do it. Wouldn't it be a shame to delay such two years? If this is true, I might as well keep working on the position of Ningling Municipal Party Committee, and maybe I can make some decent things on that acre of land, don't you?"

Zhao Guodong's passion shocked Liu Yan, and the other party's courage and frankness made him feel a little ashamed. Although this guy felt that sometimes he was a bit reckless in doing things, if you could understand his ambition in his heart, you might think that this is a good man with true nature.

In contrast, what I have done in the past few years seems to have become a little decadent and negative.

"Guodong, maybe you are right. A real man does something and does not. As long as he decides it, there is no need to be too restrictive and care about anything else." Liu Yan said sincerely.
