In fact, it's not just about buying more iron ore. Although the national team has been expanding our country's steel plants before, the output can only meet the domestic industrial development needs.
Recently, the government decided to increase domestic infrastructure construction, and the demand for steel has skyrocketed in an instant. If it was just infrastructure construction, it would still be able to cope with it at the previous rate of production capacity expansion.
But no one expected that Zhao Yi would be so frantic and take so much land from all over the country at once. If so much land is developed simultaneously, the steel production required will be very large, and the country cannot currently meet this demand.
Zhao Yi also knew that this situation would definitely happen. He also considered whether he would also enter the steel smelting industry. In fact, the current expansion rate would seriously slow down his plan.
And this is only the first batch of urbanization construction targets. The second batch of urbanization construction may be carried out by the end of this year, and the amount of steel required will surge again.
In other words, domestic steel production not only needs to meet this year's market demand, but also needs to build enough reserved production capacity for the upcoming year.
Although in Zhao Yi's opinion, the profit margin of Basic Steel is low, especially for large purchase orders like his, which will keep the price to the lowest, it cannot support the large volume, and the total profit is still very considerable.
As a businessman, facing this kind of temptation, it is actually very difficult to give up.
But after thinking for a long time, Zhao Yi decided not to enter this industry personally. The main reason is that the national team's ability to do these tasks is more than enough, and there is no need for him to get stuck in it again.
It's just that it would be unjustifiable if he didn't get some benefits from it, so Zhao Yi used technology and investment to occupy about 30% of the shares in major domestic steel companies.
These cooperations are a win-win situation. Domestic steel companies can not only obtain the high-end steel smelting technology they urgently need, but also obtain financial support for expanding production capacity.
Although Zhao Yi provided technology and funds, he did not need to spend too much energy on management. At the same time, he could also obtain his own interests in the upcoming large-scale infrastructure plan.
In fact, it is not just the steel industry. Zhao Yi has also provided relevant technical support and capital support to the domestic cement industry. Now the domestic cement can meet daily use, and the technology is still up to standard.
But now their technology accumulation in the field of environmental protection is very insufficient. The current cement production technology will cause great damage to the environment. With the implementation of large-scale infrastructure plans, cement production will increase by more than 10 times in an instant.
The environmental pollution problem caused by so much cement production capacity is a thorny problem that has to be faced, and Zhao Yi provided them with a set of environmental protection technologies and some high-tech cement production technologies to help them solve this problem.
At the same time, they were able to obtain a large amount of funds from Zhao Yi, which provided them with sufficient ammunition to rapidly expand their production capacity, allowing them to obtain their own benefits in a timely manner in the upcoming large-scale infrastructure plan.
Moreover, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission has also understood the essence of state-owned enterprise reform. Whether it is the steel field, the cement field, or even other supporting fields in the large-scale infrastructure plan, it has begun to implement the idea of industrial integration.
In other words, through industrial integration, several representative enterprises will be made bigger and stronger. Although the number of enterprises will be reduced, the scale of the enterprises will be larger, the strength will be stronger, and the ability to resist risks will be stronger.
In particular, the technology and capital provided by Zhao Yi to these companies have provided them with very favorable conditions to become large world-class companies. As long as the management is not stupid, there is absolutely no problem in achieving this goal.
After Zhao Yi interviewed the interviewees from Qianfeng Shipping Company recruited by the human resources company, Sun He was appointed as the president of the company. Zhao Yi also retained several others as vice presidents of the company.
As for the headquarters of Qianfeng Shipping Company, Zhao Yi plans to place it in Qingdao. Qingdao has relatively good port conditions and is also an important port city in my country. It is also in line with Zhao Yi's consistent regional economic balance strategy.
Later, Zhao Yi explained some things to Sun He. First, they needed to build a fleet of ore transport ships themselves, and at the same time, they also needed to take care of other transport ship teams.
At the same time, they also need to contact Huaxia International Petrochemical Company to take over the oil tankers owned by this company. In the future, Qianfeng Shipping Company will be responsible for their oil and gas transportation tasks.
This decision still adheres to the principle of leaving professional matters to professional companies. Huaxia International Petrochemical Company should honestly strengthen its technical foundation and business capabilities in this field. As for the transportation of unimportant raw materials, it can be left to Qianfeng Shipping Company. .
Zhao first allocated 50 billion yuan in operating funds to Qianfeng Shipping Company. This fund was mainly used to purchase a large number of various types of transportation ships, and was also used to invest in port construction around the world.
If they really achieve these two goals and become the world's top giants, the initial investment of 50 billion yuan may not be enough. As for how far they can develop in the future, it still requires the efforts of their management team.
In a purely operational industry like this, there is not much room for Zhao Yi to play. He can only provide capital support, and in terms of technology, let Haiyan Shipping Company delay the sale of advanced ships to the outside world as much as possible and give priority to Qianfan. The shipping company ships.
Qianfeng Shipping Company, which holds such a large amount of capital, will definitely occupy Haiyan Shipping Company's shipbuilding capacity in the early stage. If it wants to sell ships to external parties, it is estimated that it will need to wait at least a year, or even longer.
Although Haiyan Shipbuilding Company is still building new shipyards, in addition to commercial shipbuilding, they now have some shipyards that need to be given over to China Military Industrial Company for the construction of naval warships.
Therefore, the shipyard that can be used by Haiyan Shipping Company can provide a maximum of more than 8 million tons of shipbuilding capacity per year, although compared with previous years, it can be said to have jumped several steps.
However, compared with our country's shipbuilding capabilities in previous generations, it is still slightly insufficient. This is not a technical problem, but that there is still a big gap in the total shipbuilding capacity.
Taking the data of 2017 as an example, my country's total shipbuilding volume in half a year reached nearly 30 million tons. At present, there are only two major shipbuilding forces in my country, one is Haiyan Shipbuilding Company, and the other is China Shipbuilding Industry, which is controlled by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. group.
Because the latter has just undergone reform and integration, its production capacity is lower than that of Haiyan Shipping Company, so the total shipbuilding capacity of the two together is not estimated to exceed 15 million tons.
Of course, the current global trade is not as developed as in previous generations, so production capacity cannot be expanded too much. Otherwise, the number of shipyards will increase, but orders will be few, which will also be very detrimental to the development of enterprises.
However, according to Zhao Yi's plan, Haiyan Shipbuilding Company's annual shipbuilding tonnage must reach more than 20 million tons. Currently, even including the shipyards lent to China Military Industrial Company, the annual shipbuilding capacity is only more than 1 million tons.
They still have a lot of room for improvement, especially since the international trade system will develop rapidly for a long time to come. Especially after my country joins the international trade family, this change has become very obvious.
In addition to trade needs, our country will also begin to strengthen naval construction in the future, so the demand for the construction of warships is also very large.
Building my country's aircraft carrier fleet is a must for my country's economic development to a certain stage. It is an important guarantee for ensuring the safety of my country's maritime transportation, safeguarding my country's maritime trade interests, and my country's interests in some countries and hotspots.
However, Zhao Yi does not intend to launch an aircraft carrier from the beginning. In that case, the country will not be able to afford such a large expense, and it will also attract strong attention from other countries in the world. There is no need to use a trump card right from the start.
Therefore, Zhao Yi's plan is to start with naval destroyers and frigates, then cruisers, amphibious landing ships, etc., first accumulate numbers from the peripheral ships of the aircraft carrier formation, and then build an aircraft carrier when necessary.
Although in this case, the total tonnage of our country's warship construction every year is also very large, but after all, it still belongs to the category of conventional warships. Although it will attract the attention of others, in today's international situation, it will not be overly interpreted.
The most important thing is that during this period, the goals of our country and Eagle Sauce were consistent, and there was no major conflict between the two. This is also one of the reasons why our country's trade has been growing year after year, but it has not been unduly difficult.
Moreover, at this time, Yingjiang has actually been on the defensive, and requires some cooperation from our country internationally.
At this time, with the expansion of our country's trade scale, it is very necessary and reasonable to increase relevant naval strength. Maybe Yingjiang will be happy to see it happen, after all, this is to increase their strength in this aspect.
As long as the polar bear does not fall, this kind of interest relationship will always exist, and our country's development of its own military strength will not be over-interpreted, or even if there are doubts, it will be postponed.
After explaining these things, Zhao Yi left the human resources company and handed Qianfeng Shipping Company to the newly recruited management. As for employee recruitment, they just asked the human resources company to cooperate with them.
After so many years of operation, Zhao Yi's companies have a fairly mature management structure, and the cooperation between all parties is becoming more and more tacit. Zhao Yi has fewer and fewer things to worry about.
Zhao Yi then went to the China Housing Company to see how they were preparing now.
When Zhao Yi sat in the office of Qin Hongqi, president of China Housing Corporation, Qin Hongqi was still rushing over from the Beijing Municipal Government, because he was still working there when Zhao Yi called.
If they hadn't just finished the matter, Zhao Yi wouldn't have even planned to come over. China Housing Company was at its busiest time now, so there was no need for him to cause them any more trouble.
After waiting here for almost half an hour, Qin Hongqi finally opened the door of the office and saw Zhao Yi drinking tea leisurely and admiring a replica landscape painting hanging on the wall of the office.
"Mr. Zhao is also a person who loves painting, but unfortunately my painting is just a replica." Qin Hongqi said with a smile.
"You've guessed wrong. I'm a layman. I just look at these paintings. As for my hobbies, I can't tell you. Otherwise, I wouldn't even look at the imitations with such relish." Zhao Yiye said with a smile.
After the two sat down, the secretary gave them another pot of tea, and then silently exited the office, leaving the two of them a quiet space to talk.
"How are China Housing Corporation's preparations?" Zhao Yi asked first.
"Then let me talk about the current situation of the company. Although Mr. Zhao organized several teams before, he went to 10 cities to discuss urbanization issues and related investment intentions.
But these are just rough letters of intent, so during this period of time, we are implementing these intentions one by one, conducting more detailed discussions with major cities on specific land plans, and signing formal contracts at the same time.
At the same time, during this period, we also need to establish the management structure of the newly established China Housing Company. Previously, it could only be said to be a grassroots team. If we want to operate continuously for a long time, we need to do these tasks well.
Fortunately, Bole Human Resources Company, Yongan Accounting Firm and Yuheng Law Firm helped us a lot, allowing us to complete the company's management structure in such a short period of time and straighten out the relationships in all aspects of the company. .
Now the company's management is basically on the right track, and all the early cooperation letters of intent have been signed into formal cooperative development agreements. " Qin Hongqi said.
"That's pretty good. In just three months, you have completed so much work. Your work efficiency is still good. So what are you busy with now?" Zhao Yi asked.
“After the previous work is completed, we are currently working on two aspects. One is to determine the final planning and architectural design for the development and construction of major cities.
The urban plan we previously negotiated with major city governments was a sketch with many details that needed to be adjusted, let alone architectural design drawings. There are many details to consider in this regard.
Moreover, according to your request, Mr. Zhao, if you want to build a design that will not be outdated in 50 years, it is not enough to complete it through intelligent design programs alone.
Architectural design companies are inviting architectural design masters from all over the world to provide their architectural design concepts, and they are also purchasing a large number of architectural design patents.
These are the design materials required by the intelligent design program. This work has continued from January this year to now. The architectural design company has initially completed the construction of the architectural design material library.
As for urban planning and design, our company and architectural design companies are in close discussions with major cities, and it is estimated that it will take another month to complete the work.
We have also referred to almost all the more successful urban planning and designs in the world and have provided no less than ten sets of master planning and designs for various cities. Now we are discussing in more detail the planning and design drawings we have provided. "
This is true. Although the smart city planning system and smart building design system provided by Zhao Yi are very smart, they require humans to provide the latest and best design materials to enrich their material library.
After all, artificial intelligence is not human, and these designs are related to imagination and test innovation capabilities. These are not what artificial intelligence can do.
However, when their material library is enriched, they can perform evolutionary calculations based on the material library, and automatically derive many new design materials from the basic material library, and then designers can select and retain designs that meet human aesthetics.
Although this work seems to have been completed in just three months, it is a very simple thing. In fact, this step is the most difficult.
You must know that inviting the world's top architectural designers and letting them contribute their talents and inventory is not an easy task in itself.
In order for these top designers to agree to the requirements of the architectural design company, they paid a large amount of consulting fees and patent purchase fees, which totaled 5 billion yuan.
This is still a preliminary design material library. In the future, architectural design companies will also cooperate with these world's top architectural designers, allowing them to continue to provide design inspiration and design materials to architectural design companies.
Only by constantly gathering the wisdom of top human designers and constantly updating their own design material library can the intelligent design program of an architectural design company continue to be at the forefront of architectural design in the era.
This is an ongoing work.
As for the urban planning and design drawings, they are relatively simple. It cannot be said to be simple, but it does not require spending too much money. Referring to the planning and design of more successful cities in the world, it actually does not cost money.
All it takes is for the high-resolution remote sensing satellites in the sky to circle the earth a few times, and all the city planning photos will be clearly taken, and then all the buildings will be marked. The map software of Fanxing Software Company has already completed these tasks.
You only need to import photos and related data into the smart city planning and design system, and the smart system will automatically decompose each unit element into design materials, and at the same time conduct a comparative analysis of each city planning map to find commonalities.
These commonalities are generally used in all urban planning, and then based on the landform characteristics and functional characteristics of the land you want to design and plan, as well as the special local cultural factors, you can generate a usable planning and design drawing.
And thousands or hundreds of them can be generated at once, and then the urban planning designer will combine these generated planning and design drawings to form about 10 relatively complete urban planning and designs that are in line with the current planning.
After discussions with relevant units and detailed analysis of these 10 planning and design drawings, they may be merged, split or discarded, and finally a city planning drawing that meets the requirements of all parties will be born.
After the city planning drawing is completed, the smart city planning and design system will decompose the planning and design drawing, and conduct detailed decomposition and planning of all the details to form small constructible designs.
Then just hand over these decomposed projects to the construction unit to complete the construction. This does not involve the architectural design and construction issues on the ground, but about the basic planning issues of urban underground pipelines, underground transportation, etc.
The architectural design on the ground is completed by an intelligent building design system. This system will automatically decompose each building according to the requirements on the final planning drawing and the use of each building unit.
Then, according to the requirements for each building, several designs are formed by combining the design elements that meet the requirements in the architectural design material library, and then the architectural designs that meet the cultural characteristics and current technology are manually selected.
In other words, currently architectural design companies are basically taking this step.
According to Qin Hongqi's report, it will take around mid-April to complete all planning and architectural design, which means it will take more than a month.
I am very satisfied that they were able to complete this work in such a short time. Although it is supported by two major intelligent systems, it cannot handle the large number of cities and the large design area.
It can be said that this is the fastest design planning in the world. If it is handled manually, the design work of a building will take several months, and some may take as long as about a year. The efficiency is completely incomparable. (End of chapter)
