Chapter 416: There are insiders in the two major companies?

Two days later, in the conference room of the Qinxi Provincial Government.《》%

"Governor, there are oil shortages in many places in the province now, such as Huashan and Sanmenxia. The supply of diesel is seriously insufficient! If this situation cannot be changed in time, a large number of vehicles, including foreign vehicles and vehicles in areas with insufficient supply in the province, will pour into Fengyuan city to refuel, further intensifying the queuing of gas stations in various districts of Fengyuan City! It is easier to arouse the dissatisfaction of local drivers. Just this morning, in front of a gas station near the South City Gate in the city, several local drivers quarreled with drivers from other places because they were queuing for too long, and finally both sides took action. Fortunately, the police arrived in time and there were no injuries or bleeding incidents. Although this was just a small matter, it reminded us that if the status quo was not changed as soon as possible, the trouble would become greater and greater!"

Zheng Wei nodded quietly and turned his eyes to another person.

"I have contacted the person in charge of Hua Petroleum and Hua Petroleum Chemical Qinxi Branch. They said that due to the recent hot weather and the use of a large number of electrical appliances has led to a sharp increase in residents' daily electricity consumption. You also know that the power supply in our province has always been not abundant, and the emergence of power shortage will inevitably increase the demand for diesel, which is also an important reason for the current situation. It will intensify the oil shortage; and, now it is summer, and a large amount of material transportation will cause the transportation industry to increase the demand for diesel; and, since many refineries under the two major companies must undergo maintenance, the amount of diesel produced has also been affected to a certain extent. They are already doing their best to coordinate and do their best to ensure the supply of Fengyuan and surrounding areas. As for more, the head office can only coordinate!"

"The head office is coordinating?" Zheng Wei repeated, "How much can we coordinate?"

"It's hard to say. They said that since central and southern China currently have oil shortages that are even worse than those in the surrounding provinces of Qinxi Province, the headquarters is now trying its best to ensure the supply of these two major regions. Therefore, our demand may not be completely met in a short period of time!"

Zheng Wei showed a hint of anger on his face and said, "So if they said it, how long will it take?"

"To completely alleviate this phenomenon, it is estimated that it will be until the end of August and early September. With the end of the high temperature and the end of routine maintenance of these factories, the supply of diesel will return to normal!"

"At the end of August and early September, this oil shortage may last as much as 30 to 40 days!" Zheng Wei said in a heavy tone, "Such a long time will have serious economic impacts and very bad social impacts on many industries in our province. It is extremely unfavorable to the economic development of our province. You continue to negotiate with them, and I don't care what they do, and we must change this result as soon as possible!" Qinxi Province's great economic situation this year has been dragged down due to the insufficient supply of refined oil, which is definitely something that Zheng Wei cannot tolerate!

"And!" Zheng Wei turned his attention to Lu Yifei, the vice governor in charge of industry, and said, "I remember that we still have four provincial refining companies. How are their current production situation? Can we increase production capacity and meet the needs of the market as much as possible!"

Lu Yifei was stunned and said, "Governor, this may not work!"

"Why?" Zheng Wei's voice immediately increased by octave.

"Governor, although according to the central government's documents, refining enterprises with annual production capacity of less than 700,000 tons can belong to the local government. However, shortly after that, the central government introduced the "four unifications" policies of unified resource allocation, unified transportation organization, unified price formulation, and unified sales settlement. These enterprises are formulated by Hua Petroleum and Hua Petrochemical from crude oil supply to refined oil sales. Our four refining enterprises have no autonomy at all." Lu Yifei hesitated for a moment before continuing, "And as long as they are not careful, they violate their regulations, Hua Petroleum and Hua Shi

Chemical will impose sanctions. Last year, in order to increase corporate efficiency, Qinxi Petrochemical Factory supplied some of the refined oil to several companies in the province in addition to completing Hualien’s oil allocation plan. This move was considered illegal by Hualien. Qinxi Petrochemical Factory suffered severe sanctions and was stopped by Hualien’s crude oil. Until today, more than a year has passed. Qinxi Petrochemical Factory, with an annual production capacity of 600,000 tons, has not started construction yet! Qinxi Petrochemical Factory has suffered losses of more than 100 million yuan, and before that, the Qinxi Petrochemical Factory had a very good performance!

"Ah?" The people present couldn't help but be surprised. A chemical factory with an annual production capacity of 600,000 tons has been idle until today because it was considered to be operating illegally! What a waste of resources!

"What's the situation of Qinxi Petrochemical Factory now?" Zheng Wei couldn't help but lit up his eyes. This was something he didn't expect. If Qinxi Petrochemical Factory could start operating immediately, could it alleviate the current dilemma in Qinxi Province?

"The situation is very bad. There has been no production for more than a year. Although the equipment is still in good condition, the hearts of the employees in the factory are dispersed!" Lu Yifei said helplessly, "The main technicians have tried to transfer to other companies. Just ordinary employees, because the factory cannot pay the full salary, many people also fish for three days and dry the net for two days! They even do some side jobs outside to supplement their household expenses! If it wants it to run normally again, it must be prepared for at least a while!"

Zheng Wei was a little disappointed, but he also understood that if a factory like this was going to run normally, it would indeed take a long time to prepare. Otherwise, if an accident occurred, it would be a big trouble.

"What about the other three provincial enterprises? The production capacity can no longer be increased?" Zheng Wei continued to ask

"Even if it can be improved, it can only be achieved through Hualien and Hualien Petrochemical. If they don't let go, it may not work!" Lu Yifei said helplessly. The four unified policies have completely tied these provincial refining companies to the chariots of the two major companies. It is that their leaders intend to obey the provincial orders, but there is no sufficient crude oil supply, so what's the use? Almost all the domestic crude oil supply is controlled by the three major oil companies. Needless to say, Hualien and Hualien Petrochemical, Hualien probably will not supply crude oil to Qinxi Province at the risk of making a grudge with them.

"Hmph!" Zheng Wei was indescribable. State-owned enterprises such as Hua Petroleum and Hua Petrochemical are, from a certain perspective, like the country in the middle of the country! Although he is the governor of Qinxi Province and there are oil fields in Qinxi Province, the whereabouts of the crude oil produced in the oil fields are completely out of his control!

"So, let's talk about it and see if there is any good way to change this situation! Otherwise, the good situation of our economic development this year will probably be a big discount!" Zheng Wei said angrily.

At the meeting, everyone put forward many ideas, but the main core was to do their best to negotiate with the senior management of Hualien and Hualien Petroleum and urge them to tilt the reserve diesel to Qinxi Province and surrounding provinces and cities, so as to change the current adverse situation in Qinxi Province.

In desperation, Zheng Wei had to send the task down, asking everyone to cross the sea, and each showed his magical power to find ways to communicate with the senior management of the two major companies, so as to get more refined oil supply from the two major companies' head offices.

After the meeting, everyone dispersed. Lu Yifei did not leave, but followed Zheng Wei back to his office.

"Old Lu, what's wrong with you?" Zheng Wei said in surprise.

Although in the office, Lu Yifei lowered his voice and said, "Governor, this time when I contacted the Qinxi Branch of the two major companies, there was a vice president in both branches. I'm sorry, I promised them that they would not be able to disclose their names anyway. Tell me that there is no need for us to ask them for help."

"Ah?" Zheng Wei was surprised. What did they mean? Who would you ask them for help if you lack refined oil?

Lu Yifei whispered: "They said that the Fang family also has an oil refinery in the south, and its production capacity is quite amazing. At present, both gasoline and diesel reserves are quite rich! And, more importantly, they have their own oil sources and do not worry about not being able to import crude oil. As long as we convince the Fang family and persuade the central government to relax, then there is no problem in supplying a Qinxi Province to fill the current gap!"

"Fang Family?" Zheng Wei's brows frowned. The Fang Family has an oil refinery in the south, and he has heard of this. This was the reward that the central government contributed to the country with a rich gold mine to reward Fang Mingyuan. But at the same time, there are restrictions, that is, whether it is the procurement of crude oil or the final sales of refined oil, it must not be used to the domestic market! Since it cannot be used to the domestic market and is far away in the south, Zheng Wei just listened and did not take it to heart. Now Lu Yifei suddenly mentioned it, and he immediately thought about it.

But no matter how much I think about it, letting the refined oil from the Fang family refinery enter the Qinxi Provincial Market really require the central government to spit! Otherwise, not only the Fang family, but also themselves, they will also have to take responsibility!

The slowdown in Qinxi Province's economic development will undoubtedly have an impact on his career, but this is not his fault, but the two major companies are dragging him down. Even if the central government is dissatisfied in the future, it can be said. However, if he lets Fang's refined oil enter Qinxi Province without the consent of the central government, it is a matter of principle.

"Governor, whether it is successful or not, we can always try the attitude of the central government, right?" Lu Yifei said softly, "The central government does not agree, at least you have expressed your attitude. You have put your heart into the economic development of Qinxi Province!"

Zheng Wei couldn't help but act intentionally!
