Chapter 1050 Industrial Upgrading
Zhu Daidong is very clear about the cultural level of Chen Shuli. At the beginning, he thought that Shuling was going to engage in the diatomite project, and he completely listened to the so-called experts. Without conducting market research or questioning the technology of diatomite, it is completely a shopkeeper. At that time, the diatomite project was related to whether Chen Shuli could enter the city. The current apple deep processing project also determines whether Chen Shuli can do a good job in the county party committee, so that the question about him disappears.
"If the technology is mature, can it be industrialized?" Zhu Daidong asked.
"Yes, in addition to studying the construction of relevant technologies, Professor Huang's research group has also developed relevant equipment by itself. It also commissioned a machinery manufacturing company in Muchuan City to order a 10,000-ton concentrated apple juice production line and a 1,000-ton high-power natural apple flavor production line for our Gaotang County. It is estimated that if the raw materials are sufficient, the annual output of concentrated apple juice will reach 50,000 tons, and the processing and conversion capacity of apples will reach 350,000 tons. Chen Shuli said.
"Annual output of 50,000 tons of concentrated apple juice? Can the production of apples in your county reach 350,000 tons? Zhu Daidong laughed and said that the total production of apples in Gaotang County last year was only 80,000 tons.
"Not yet. After the experts of the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences have inspected the apple planting area and soil structure in our county, if we can adopt their technology and management methods this year, the output may reach 200,000 tons. Moreover, there are still more than 500,000 mu of apples suitable for growing in our county. It is believed that in three years, the output of apples in our county will reach more than 350,000 tons. And if necessary this year, we can buy apples from other places. Chen said confidently, as long as there is a market, are you afraid that there will be no raw materials?
If the county still needs to buy apples from other places, it will greatly stimulate the fruit farmers in the county. Who doesn't want to make more money? The ideas of the people are very realistic. As long as they have the opportunity to change their fate, they will never give up. At that time, their enthusiasm will be fully mobilized.
"You just said that the production equipment is now manufactured in Muchuan City. How long will it take to deliver? How long does it take to install and debug? Zhu Daidong asked that Muchuan City is the second largest city in Gunan Province, adjacent to Chu City, and is one of the old industrial bases in the country.
Mitcheon City is known as the cradle of [China] National Electric Locomotives" and "China] "China] National Electric Locomotive Capital"
is the largest non-ferrous metal smelting base and cemented carbide research base in Asia. It is one of the eight industrial cities key to be built during the "First Five-Year Plan" and "Second Five-Year Plan" period. China's first aviation engine, the first air-to-air missile, the first electric locomotive, the first carbide and more than 100 in the industrial history of China were all born in Muchuan City.
Muchuan Municipal Party Committee [Book] Zhou Baoning and Mayor Oupuban, Zhu Daidong often holds meetings with them in the province, which is relatively familiar. Zhou Baoning is an old cadre. He is 55 years old this year. After finishing this industry, he is 58 years old. If he can't work in the province at that time, he can only retire to the second line.
This comrade is originally from Shandong and was assigned to the First Locomotive Factory in Muchuan after graduating from university. Starting from a technician, I have been engaged in technical work. From a technician to an engineer, to a senior engineer, a deputy factory director, a factory director, a deputy director of the Bureau of Industry, a director, a deputy mayor, a mayor, to the current Municipal Party Committee [book].
He attaches great importance to the heavy industry in Muchuan City and has been working hard to revitalize the heavy industry in Muchuan City. But with the transformation from a planned economy to a market economy and the rise of emerging industries, Kikawa
The city has no performance transformation. There is no innovation in technology, no upgrading in industry, no reform in institutions, and the economic growth rate of Muchuan City is developing at a very slow pace.
For this original industrial star city, many leaders in the province are very affectionate. Oupuban, the mayor of Muchuan City, once wanted to carry out drastic reforms, but his ideas seemed to be in line with Zhou Baoning. He wants to develop light industry and commerce, but he has not made any progress.
Every time Oupuban comes to the province, if he has time, he will go to Zhu Daidong and talk to him about some issues about economic development. Zhu Daidong is also relatively clear about some situations in Muchuan City. He knew that with the efforts of the European Spectrum Class, some mechanical manufacturing enterprises have begun to restructure. Introduce technology and funds to strive for large-scale national projects to settle in Kikawa. At present, Kikawa is still at the top level in domestic machinery manufacturing.
"Three months." Chen Shuli said that this time is comparable to the time of introducing a set of equipment from abroad.
"How about the price? You may not compare it because it is customized equipment." Zhu Daidong reminded.
"We have really compared this. If a set of equipment like this is imported, it will cost 3 million US dollars, which will be exchanged for more than 24.5 million yuan. From the customization of Muchuan City, it only takes 12.5 million yuan, saving one-third. And most importantly,
It also saved $3 million in foreign exchange. Chen Shuli said.
Now one dollar can be converted into RMB about 8.278 yuan, and China's current foreign exchange reserves are less than 150 billion US dollars. Although 3 million US dollars does not look like much, if it can save 3 million US dollars, it can also be regarded as a contribution to foreign exchange reserves.
You can always think of the overall situation of the country...very good. But is the domestic equipment in good quality? Zhu Daidong asked.
"The machinery manufacturing in Muchuan City has been regarded as the highest level in China, and the company we contacted has recently introduced German technology. It can be said that the quality is absolutely world-class.
In another 10,000-ton apple juice production line, 800 to 1,000 columns on the production line need to be replaced in a squeeze season, and one column is worth about 8,000 yuan. If domestic equipment is used, each column will save one-third of the cost. Chen Shuli said.
"If you jump to 1,000 pillars, one pillar is worth 8,000 yuan. Even if it is at a low level, it will cost 6.4 million yuan. Does this have to be changed?" Zhu Daidong asked that a squeezing season costs at least 6.4 million yuan, which makes Zhu Daidong a little painful.
"Yes, we use domestic equipment, and the quality is no worse than the imported ones, especially these wearing parts, which are also more than one-third cheaper than the imported ones. With other accessories, we have spent nearly $4 million less foreign exchange. Once our production line is completed and put into operation, it will immediately generate foreign exchange for the country. In this way, Gaotang County will become one of the important sources of foreign exchange in our city. Chen Shuli said with a smile.
"Now there is no production equipment and no products, so I want to create foreign exchange for the country? Have you thought about the sales of Yan Pin? What are the developments in the future? Have you made any plans? Zhu Daidong asked.
"We have contacted the United States through several foreign trade export companies. As long as the concentrated apple juice we produce can meet the quality standards of the United States, the sales are definitely not a problem. Even if the market is not good, we have thought about preparing to produce apple juice drinks and cider. Chen said confidently that Chudu Commercial Bank has loaned 50 million yuan. As long as the funds are in place, he believes that nothing can be rare to live in Gaotang County.
As for the quality of concentrated apple juice produced in Gaotang County, Chen Shuli is actually not very worried. He has asked experts and scholars to demonstrate it. Huang Minglong's research results have obtained the national invention patent. At the same time, the production equipment is also carried out under Huang Minglong's personal guidance, and there is no quality problem at all. As for the wine or drinks of living apples, it is only under planning for the time being. It is not so easy for Gaotang County to become a fat man in one bite.
"Have you ever thought about selling concentrated apple indica by yourself?" Zhu Daidong asked. He suddenly remembered the practice of Chuchang Company. At the beginning, in order to sell the special film system, he specially registered a company in the United States, using the English name, sending the accessories from China to the United States for assembly. The price of sales will be more than double that of direct domestic exports.
"Do you mean to learn from the practice of Chuchang Company?... Chen Shuli said in surprise that if there is a company in Gaotang County that runs in the United States, the effect will be better if it is publicized at that time.
"Yes, there are still three months before it is officially put into production. I hope you can do a survey. Of course, it is not necessary to set up a special company in the United States, which will definitely benefit your sales. But I believe you can give it a try. Zhu Daidong said.
"I'll arrange this matter when I get back." Chen Shuli said excitedly.
"The agricultural product processing industry is seriously lagging behind, which has become a "bottleneck" restricting China's agricultural and rural economic development. Gaotang County should seize this favorable opportunity and realize the industrialization of agricultural scientific and technological achievements, which is an effective way to accelerate the transformation of Gaotang County from a large agricultural county to a strong agricultural county. You are still a pilot now. If you succeed, you can drive the upgrading of the industry, accelerate the rapid development of the agricultural processing industry, promote the fundamental transformation of China's agriculture from the main pursuit of quantitative growth to focusing on quality and efficiency, and provide scientific and technological support for the development of agriculture and rural economy in the new stage. Zhu Daidong said slowly that he must remind Chen Shuli that as a first-level party committee, he should pay attention to political issues at all times and not always focus on economic issues.
"Mayor Zhu, please rest assured that we in Gaotang County will do this job well." Chen Shuli said firmly.
"How are the fruit farmers raising funds in your county now?" Zhu Daidong asked again.
"The enthusiasm of fruit farmers is not high. I have another idea this time. Can you come to our county for a survey?" Chen Shuli said.
"Research?" Zhu Daidong didn't understand what Chen Shuli meant for a moment. He had done ten days of solid research in Gaotang County. Isn't it enough?
"Yes, in addition to inviting you to go, we also want to invite some people from the tree ridge of Yuhuā County and Furong County to show up, so that the fruit farmers in Gaotang can change their minds." Chen Shuli smiled and said that it was a lie to ask Zhu Daidong to investigate, and to pull Zhu Daidong to publicize the benefits of raising funds to share shares.
"There is no problem. Furong County has encountered such a problem before. In fact, you can also learn from the practice of Furong County at that time." Zhu Daidong praised with a smile and said.
