Qin Chengyang's provocation turned the originally harmonious atmosphere into an unpleasant one. After the dishes were served, Niu Fuyong quickly livened up the atmosphere and said, "Come, come, today is a good day. We are all brothers, let's raise our glasses and drink three in a row."
Qin Chengyang did not respond. He placed a bottle of wine in front of Lu Yiwei and said arrogantly, "Didn't you say we are brothers? Drink this bottle of wine to show your sincerity."
Qin Chengyang called out his name. Not only was he rude, but now he was openly provoking him, which made Lu Yiwei feel awkward. Besides, Qin Chengyang must know his position and position. It was obvious that he was deliberately making things difficult for him.
Lu Yiwei was unmoved. He squinted at Qin Chengyang and said slowly, "Young Master Qin, you must have a reason to drink a bottle as soon as you come up."
"Didn't they say you are a good person? Then prove it."
Lu Yiwei was not intimidated by a little thief. He said calmly, "I don't need to prove whether I am a good person or not. But if you want to drink a bottle with me, I will accompany you to the end."
Qin Chengyang immediately opened a bottle and was about to drink. Niu Fuyong's face darkened. He stopped him and said, "Chengyang, this is too much. We invited you out to have fun. Don't make everyone unhappy. Besides, this is the first time you are meeting Brother Lu. There is no need to do this. "
Qin Chengyang pushed him away and pointed at him angrily. "Don't talk. This has nothing to do with you. Lu Yiwei and I are drinking now. Why don't you drink on his behalf?"
Li Haidong gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He stared at the bottle of wine on the table. He was waiting to kill Qin Chengyang once the fight started. He did not care if Qin Chengyang was the son of a department head. He would vent his anger first.
Tian Jundong, who had been silent all this time, said with an expressionless face, "Chengyang, I asked Brother Lu out for dinner today. Are you trying to ruin my party?"
Tian Jundong's words were effective. Qin Chengyang immediately became obedient. Shaking his head, he stood up and said, "My friend asked me out for a drink. I'll be leaving first." After saying that, he picked up his phone and left. Before leaving, he didn't forget to look Lu Yiwei in the eye.
After he left, Niu Fuyong furiously said, "Jundong, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have taken this lying down. Who do you think you are? Do you really think you are someone important? "
Tian Jundong laughed and said, "That's just Cheng Yang's temper, he doesn't have any bad intentions. His father and my father are from the same sect, so I wanted to invite him over to have some fun. Who knew … Brother Lu, please don't take offense. "
Lu Yiwei was extremely displeased. Putting him on the spot in front of so many people, it seemed like it was targeted. Since he mentioned Ren Dongfang, he would definitely do something unpleasant in the future, so he had to be on guard. He smiled faintly and said, "Young Master Qin is a straightforward person."
"Alright, let's not talk about him. Let's drink."
After three rounds of drinks, Tian Jundong was a little tipsy and took the initiative to mention the steel factory. He said, "Brother Lu, I've long been interested in the steel factory that Fuyong mentioned. I couldn't decide where to invest, but I met Fuyong by chance at the wine table last time. The two of them had a good chat, and after a while, they decided to build the factory in Xijiang.
"On one hand, the country is carrying out the Western Development Strategy to continuously stimulate economic development, to expand domestic demand, and to promote the overall strength of the region. On the other hand, in the next few years, the country will focus on urban construction and high-end industrial chain, so the steel market has a broad space for development. "
It was obvious that the other party was knowledgeable, at least he was studying the country's policies. Lu Yiwei swirled the wine glass thoughtfully and said, "That makes sense, but the report of the 17th National Congress mentioned that we need to further adjust the industrial structure, optimize the allocation of resources, reduce internal friction, and protect the environment. As a heavy polluter, isn't it a little hasty to mention the steel factory now?"
"Also, looking at the whole country, our country's steel industry has a serious overcapacity. Hebei has hundreds of steel factories, and is ranked first in the world, but the results aren't obvious. It is said that the profit of a ton of steel is at most a packet of instant noodles. In recent years, many enterprises have imported steel from abroad, such as Brazil and Australia. Not only are the steel cheap, but the quality is also good. If we need steel, most of it is imported from Germany and Japan, and our domestic enterprises can't produce the steel needed for special industries. "
Tian Jundong listened and nodded. He said, "Brother Lu is right. Although the steel market is saturated, there is still a lot of room for development. As far as I know, there are a total of 12 steel factories in Xijiang Province, and other than Jiangdong Steel Factory, the other factories can't make ends meet. The fundamental reason is that the state-owned enterprises can't get rid of them, and they need private enterprises to come in and stimulate their vitality. "
It seemed that he wanted to invest. Lu Yiwei squinted his eyes and said, "Then how much do you plan to invest?"
Tian Jundong looked at Niu Fuyong and said, "The initial plan is to invest 1 billion to build a steel factory with an annual output of 3 million tons."
"Oh, this is a big investment, but have you thought about how to recoup the cost? I estimate that it won't be back within 10 years."
Tian Jundong smiled and said, "Don't be so absolute. Man proposes, God disposes. It all depends on how you operate it."
"That's true. Do you have any intention of choosing a location?"
Niu Fuyong took over the conversation and said, "Jundong and I have been to a few places, and we plan to put the project in Sanli County in Xizhou City."
"Sanli County?"
"Yes, what do you think?"
Lu Yiwei was quite familiar with the county. It was close to his hometown, Nanyang County, and had a lot of coal resources, iron and manganese mines. However, its economic development was far behind Nanyang. Did he build the factory here to be close to the resource land? After thinking for a while, he said, "It's rich in resources, but the transportation is not developed, and there's a shortage of water. Have you considered these factors?"
Tian Jundong said, "The transportation will develop by leaps and bounds in the next few years. As for water resources, we can build a small reservoir upstream of Nanjiang River, and at the same time, build a thermal power plant to basically meet the needs of production."
Hearing that he was going to build a reservoir, Lu Yiwei immediately rejected, "Nanjiang River is the only river shared by Xizhou and Beizhou. If you want to build a reservoir, then Nanyang County's water supply will be a problem. Also, if the river is polluted, it will affect the interests of hundreds of thousands of people. "
Niu Fuyong said indifferently, "It's development, after all. There's always a price to pay. Besides, Nanjiang River is about to stop flowing. Instead of that, it's better to contribute to the local economy. As for the problem of water supply, we can tap deep underground water. Many places are doing that now. "
Lu Yiwei had been trying to figure out the other party's purpose in talking to him about these things, and this line seemed to be getting clearer. He said, "Since you've decided, then do it. There's no point in telling me."
