676 Six Hundred Seventy-Ninth Hit It Off

Li Xianglong thought for a while and said: "It may be inaccurate, just listen to me, I think any industry will eventually develop into a monopoly, especially the steel industry. Have you found any disadvantages in this industry at this stage?"

Zhang Xiaobai said: "Scattered and polluted, don't look at the dozens of large and small steel factories in Tangcheng. There are really not many companies that can be called enterprises. Some are family-owned enterprises, and some manage production like small workshops, and the pollution is particularly serious. .To be honest, I don’t think it can continue like this!”

Li Xianglong nodded in relief, and said: "Your analysis is similar to mine. The country really needs this kind of extensive growth model in the early stage of development, but once the economy develops to a certain stage, it will inevitably be replaced by a more advanced growth model! "

Zhang Xiaobai didn't understand what he meant, so he frowned and asked, "Can you explain it more clearly?"

Li Xianglong said: "Human development has to go through a necessary stage. When you are hungry, you think about eating and wearing warm clothes. After you have no worries about food and clothing, you think about how to enjoy life. When you are satisfied with material life, you think about how to be satisfied." Spiritual life."

"Xiaobai, let me ask you, if you can't even breathe a breath of fresh air, what enjoyment is there?"

Zhang Xiaobai suddenly realized, nodded and said, "Understood!"

It is precisely because human beings have this need that society will develop in this direction.

Zhang Xiaobai suddenly thought of what Su Tong said, which probably meant the same thing. It is impossible for the country to let the environment continue to pollute like this, so this industry will definitely change.

At that time, Zhang Xiaobai really didn't care about it. All he thought about was how to get rich, and he would talk about other things after he got rich.

Now that I heard what Li Xianglong said, it was almost the same as what Su Tong said, so I had to express my admiration to my own Susu again.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaobai grinned silly.

Li Xianglong frowned and said, "Are you yearning for spring?"

Zhang Xiaobai replied truthfully, "A little indeed!"

Li Xianglong ignored him, and continued the topic: "So, I think the steel industry will develop towards monopoly, and only truly powerful large enterprises can be capable of environmentally friendly production!"

"Don't look at the more than ten steel factories in Tangcheng now, look at it in a few years, there are absolutely not a few left. Those scattered and polluting small enterprises with serious pollution are destined to withdraw from the long river of history!"

Zhang Xiaobai raised his thumb, "Listening to what you say is better than reading for ten years! Brother Li, I have another question. How long do you think the current market will last?"

Li Xianglong stretched out three fingers, "More than three years, don't forget what will happen after three years?"

Zhang Xiaobai murmured: "Yanjing Olympics!"

Li Xianglong said with a smile: "At that time, people from all over the world will come to us, and the country will definitely pay attention to its image. Those small businesses probably won't last until then!"

At the end of the meal, one table of dishes was ordered, and there was still a large table left. Li Xianglong seemed to eat a few mouthfuls symbolically, and Zhang Xiaobai came to ask for advice.

Zhang Xiaobai asked the last question, "Brother Li, I heard that a foreign company wants you to be the CEO of Asia Pacific. How did you come to Dingran Steel?"

Li Xianglong snorted coldly, "It's true. I didn't agree to it. You may not know that Brother Peng Cheng once worked for that company, and Brother Peng Cheng was injured there. How the hell can I work for them? "

Zhang Xiaobai knew it in his heart. He had heard Mr. Peng Cheng briefly mention it before, but only now did he know that it was the company.

Zhang Xiaobai said with a smile: "Now I not only admire Brother Li's talent, but also his character!"

Li Xianglong smiled and said: "Don't just say good things, maybe we will be competitors in the future!"

Zhang Xiaobai said: "It's really possible!"

According to Li Xianglong, there may be a few steel factories left in Tangcheng. Obviously, Dingran is ready to enter Tangcheng. Even if Yuansheng cannot be acquired, there are many other ways.

Therefore, whoever can stay until the end is a direct competition.

After chatting with Li Xianglong all night, Zhang Xiaobai benefited a lot, especially gained a deeper understanding of the general trend of the entire industry.

The next day, Zhang Xiaobai was about to go to work, but Wei Qianshan called and said that he was about to arrive in Tangcheng.

Wei Qianshan was going to come with Zhang Xiaobai, but there was some sudden situation in the company, so he rushed here overnight just after he got away.

Obviously, Wei Qianshan wanted Zhang Xiaobai to go with him.

At ten o'clock, Wei Qianshan arrived in Tangcheng, and followed Zhang Xiaobai to Tianyu Mining in Wolong Village.

It was almost noon, and Zhao Tianhao prepared a table of sumptuous food and wine for him.

It can be said that Wei Qianshan is Zhao Tianhao's nobleman, and it was he who bought the mine back then.

This is how it is today.

Coming to Wolong Village again, Wei Qianshan sighed with emotion. It has only been a few years, and the changes here are really great. The former small mountain village has now become a bustling town.

They are all acquaintances, there is no need for introductions, they just come up to eat, drink and chat.

Zhao Tianhao brought up a glass of wine, "Mr. Wei, thousands of words can be summed up into a single thank you, and it's all in the wine!"

Wei Qianshan sighed and said, "Mr. Zhao, don't add salt to my sadness, my liver hurts!"

Both took a swig of wine.

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Uncle Wei, your wound should have healed long ago, how many years ago do you still remember?"

Wei Qianshan clutched his chest, and said with a heartache: "Don't talk, as soon as you talk, I think of opening a steel factory. The wound just healed, and this new wound hurts again."

Wei Qianshan perfectly missed two opportunities, one to open a mine and one to open a steel factory.

Why did he have to come this time? He was really unwilling!

After drinking a glass of wine, let's get to the point.

Zhang Xiaobai introduced Wei Qianshan's reason for coming, "Brother Hao, Uncle Wei is here this time because he wants to partner with you to open a steel factory, and he brings money with him, and he won't send anyone to manage it, he just buys shares!"

Wei Qianshan raised his wine glass and said, "Mr. Zhao, give me a hand!"

Zhao Tianhao took a sip of wine and said: "President Wei is serious, this is a good thing, and he is helping my brother! However, recently I thought about it again, the risk of opening a steel factory is too high, if it goes bankrupt, I will You have to fold all your money in!"

Wei Qianshan said: "Brother, in this society, the bold and the timid will be starved to death. Why don't you take a big gamble, and if you succeed, it will take us a few lifetimes!"

Zhao Tianhao was a little hesitant. He did have this plan before and told Zhang Xiaobai about it, but the main purpose was to win over Zhang Xiaobai. If he didn't participate, it didn't make sense that the steel factory wouldn't open.

Wei Qianshan looked at Zhang Xiaobai asking for help.

Zhang Xiaobai took a sip of his wine and said, "Uncle Wei, Brother Hao, why don't you start a steel factory, and jointly invest in building a larger sintering factory, and then send the sintering ore to Yuansheng Iron and Steel!"

"To put it simply, you are only responsible for processing, because you are eating your own resources, and there is no risk at all. It's just that the profit is smaller compared to the steel mill, but it must be much larger than the current processing plant!"

If he hadn't met Li Xianglong last night, Zhang Xiaobai would have persuaded Brother Hao to open a steel mill, but after hearing about the general trend, he always felt that it would be risky. Maybe when a gust of wind blows, the small business will be shut down.

It's better to be insured like this, although the earning is less than that of drought and flood, not to mention that this less is only relative to steel mills, and it is more profitable than most industries.

Wei Qianshan and Zhao Tianhao hit it off after hearing this suggestion.

The deal Xiaobai suggested must be a good deal.

That's it!
