Chapter 259 Export
Lin Yonggui opened the door of the office and felt a burst of heat. He quickly took off his coat and shook his hands and feet before sitting in the chair, ready to approve today's documents.
Strictly speaking, he can only approve the documents in two hours in the morning. If it is later, there will be endless cadres to meet, and there will be no more time to rest.
He just sat down, rubbed his hands to read the documents, and the phone rang.
Lin Yonggui's face was solemn. The person who dares to call at this time is definitely not his subordinate, otherwise he is not making trouble.
He coughed deliberately before he picked up the phone and said gently, "Hello, I'm Lin Yonggui."
"Lao Lin, I'm Liu Wanhai." The sound on the phone was a little deaf, like laughter in a bomb shelter.
"Oh, long time no see..."
After a greeting, Liu Wanhai laughed like a segment: "Lao Lin, I heard that Su Dong of Dahua Industry came out of your hands?"
"His first job was in the oil field."
"Can you introduce it to me?" Liu Wanhai asked with a smile.
"It's not like your style." Lin Yonggui said in surprise, "Do you still need me to introduce the South China Chemical Factory?"
In 1990, people wore mostly chemical fiber and most of the utensils they used were plastic. These are all the credit of the chemical factory. At this time, according to the classification of state-owned enterprises, in addition to pollution, the chemical industry has a good treatment status. At this time, the private chemical factories are not yet fashionable, and the life of the chemical system is quite good. South China Chemical Plant is no exception.
Liu Wanhai laughed and said reluctantly, "Dahua's 120,000 tons of methanol are about to be put into production, and our South China chemical factory is hot. You don't know that there is a shortage of raw materials now. Hey, Lao Lin, your oil field has a lot of benefits.
Lin Yonggui couldn't help laughing. The planned price per ton of crude oil is more than 400 yuan, the unplanned price is 680 yuan, and the price difference is more than 200 yuan per in and out. It is up to Lin Yonggui to decide who to approve or not, except for the oil company. Naturally comfortable.
South China Chemical Factory is a midstream manufacturer. Its garment factory textile factory or pharmaceutical factory plastic factory requires the raw materials in the batch purchase plan, but the chemical factory itself also requires the purchase of upstream methanol ethylene propylene and other raw materials. Naturally, it is not as good as pure upstream oil fields.
Lin Yonggui thought: The methanol produced by Dahua will always be sold. South China Chemical Factory is also a major customer, and I think it can be done. So he smiled twice and said, "I'll make a phone call to see if there is a chance."
Liu Wanhai, thank you very much.
Lin Yonggui hung up the phone and shook his head with a smile. When he wanted to ask the secretary for the number, the phone rang again.
"Hello. Lin Yonggui.
"Lao Lin, I'm Lao Zhou..." Another classmate of a chemical factory.
After a few words, Lin Yonggui put down the microphone suspiciously. This time, he didn't mean to accept it at all. I didn't wait for him to figure it out. The phone jingled again.
"Hello, I'm Lin Yonggui."
"Lao Lin, I'm old money." Another classmate of the chemical factory.
Lin Yonggui cut off the wrinkles in his head and asked, "Lao Qian, Dahua didn't just start building a methanol factory today. Why did you call me now?
Old Qian immediately became nervous: "Why, is there anyone else greeting you?"
Lin Yonggui said "Yes" with a wry smile.
Lao Qian sighed, "This is really a rain overnight. Why do they all want to go the wrong way?
Lin Yonggui raised the microphone a little farther away, as if he wanted to see the creature opposite the microphone clearly. Isn't this guy also walking the wrong way? He didn't know what to say, and asked in a roundabout direction, "What's the matter coming out?"
Lao Qian said sadly, "Dahua has built 120,000 tons of methanol. We are considering that it's good to be put into production within two years. Who would have thought that he will be put into production at the end of the year, and then contact him to get thousands of tons of planned targets, which is not good at all."
"Have they all been robbed?"
"Where is it all..." Lao Qian gritted his teeth and said, "Dahua Industry is a private enterprise, and they have no planned indicators. Tell me, 120,000 tons, not an annual output of 12 tons, but a private enterprise. Who can imagine it?
Lin Yonggui had nothing to say, and he also forgot that Dahua was a private enterprise. Of course, you really have to think about it. It's very clear, but when you want to connect it with other enterprises, it's natural to forget Dahua's identity as a private enterprise.
The current methanol factory in China, with an annual output of more than 10,000 tons, is not a small factory. With an annual output of 30,000 to 40,000 tons, the output value can exceed 100 million. From a local perspective, it can be called a large factory.
Dahua's 120,000-ton methanol factory, although not the largest methanol factory in the country, is the largest methanol factory with single equipment. In other words, it is the most advanced factory. Although it has been 10 years since the reform and opening up, upstream raw material enterprises such as Shengli Oilfield will only become stronger and stronger, and how can private enterprises be seen? Twenty years later, large iron and steel enterprises and large petrochemical enterprises are still dominated by state-owned enterprises, and there is no room for private enterprises to move.
In contrast, 1990 was still at the time of the retreat of the country and the people's progress, and Dahua's private enterprise identity was not very eye-catching. It's just 120,000 tons of unplanned methanol, which made Lin Yonggui stunned. Why do major oilfields regard oil production as the only criterion for cadre assessment? A large part of the reason is that the extra output can be distributed as unplanned materials. The bonuses and benefits of employees and the small treasury of leaders come from unplanned values.
In contrast, the unplanned output of the chemical plant built by Dahua in one year is more than that of Shengli Oilfield.
Lin Yonggui was surprised. He held the phone but could no longer accept it. He refused, "Dahua Chemical is owned by Sucheng. Since he is not a state-owned enterprise, there is no planned quota. Should it be? In this way, let him deliver the goods at the planned price, not from his pocket?
"Where did we ask him to ship the goods at the planned price? Now it's an unplanned price, and he doesn't sell it. That's why I found you." Old money's mouth is full of bitterness.
"He didn't sell it unplanned. Where did he sell it?"
"Export to create foreign exchange."
Lin Yonggui was relieved and said, "There is an opportunity to export and make foreign exchange. It's useless for you to find anyone."
Although the price of domestic industrial products is high, it is still not as high as the international price, especially the relationship between the exchange rate and export tax rebates. Domestic sales have always been as good as foreign sales. Local and [China] central governments also encourage enterprises to export foreign exchange. Not to mention that some enterprises want to increase production, even if they are waiting to feed or even their lives are on the line, the government will still encourage foreign exchange creation.
Everyone understands this truth, and Lao Qian naturally knows it, explaining: "Actually. There is no reason to sell out 120,000 tons of methanol in one go. There should have been some left. Alas, it turned out to be a surge in methanol in the international market. This Dahua's luck can't be convinced.
The U.S. Congress passed an amendment to the Clean Air Act in mid-November, which immediately doubled the value of methanol. Although the price factor has not yet emerged, the inversion of supply and demand is obvious. Dahua Petrochemical rushed to this node for a trial operation, which naturally attracted snow-like orders.
In the Haicang plan, the mainland requires 100% of all products of Formosa Plastics to be exported. Dahua Petrochemical Company is built on the land of Haicang in the name of the supporting factory of Haicang Petrochemical Base. Naturally, it must comply with the requirement of 100% foreign exchange.
In this regard, there has been a fierce debate within Dahua Industry. Many people advise Sucheng to reduce the proportion of exports, such as 80% or 60%, so as to avoid poor foreign sales channels, resulting in backlog and even shutdown. Methanol is not an easy product to store. The faster it circulates, the lower the storage cost. For the output of 120,000 tons, dozens of yuan per ton is a lot of money.
However, the known history of Sucheng firmly rejected this proposal. Without lobbying, a 100% export contract was signed, waiting for the U.S. Plot Air Act.
Methanol can be added as fuel. If we use the means of the virtual economy to analyze, in areas where 9,000 tons of fuel are consumed in a year, 10% methanol is added, which is 9 million tons, which far exceeds the world's production limit of methanol. Other consumption does not fall. There is no reason why methanol will not rise in this consumption growth.
At this time, Sucheng's 100% export contract has become an amulet. You can attack and retreat and defend. The influx of buyers is proof. Domestic chemical factories are considered the same as old money. 120,000 tons is equivalent to the amount of several factories. Is it possible to sell them all? Or, you can always find a gap, leaking thousands of tons and hundreds of tons.
There are also many shrewd import and export traders. They gather in Haicang County to look for opportunities. If they are bold, they will sign a long-term agreement. If they dare not engage in underwriting contracts, they want to pay the deposit in advance and occupy the goods at the current price.
Wang Sheng looked at these manufacturers and his eyes were red.
To this day, Formosa Plastics has not yet gained any substantial benefits. Instead, it was Dahua Industry. The factory was built and put into production. Not a drop of methanol was produced, and someone rushed to send money.
What made him most indignant was that Su Cheng didn't want it when he rushed to send money.
What made him most uncomparable was that Formosa Plastics was also afraid that the price of methanol would rise and the raw materials were insufficient, so it sent him to send money and send the deposit. The largest chemical plant on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is Formosa Plastics. Their fundamental purpose of petroleum refining is to supply their own factories. Therefore, the mainland insists on 100% export sales, and Formosa Plastics agreed, because they use their own raw materials, even if it is export.
The rise in the price of methanol will naturally have a great impact on Formosa Plastics. Looking around the world, the one who is about to put into production and has not signed a sales agreement, that is, Dahua Petrochemical in Sucheng.
