The rise of nanometers

After a long journey, Lu Fumin took his three subordinates from Tianshui, thousands of miles away, to Shanmei, Lingnan.

After getting off the bus at Shanmei City Passenger Terminal, several people were surrounded by several motorcycle drivers as soon as they walked out of the gate of the passenger terminal.

"Fellow, where are you going?"

"I'm familiar with the city. I'll make sure you're satisfied by taking my car."

"I……"

Lu Fumin hurriedly refused: "No need."

Four people took a taxi.

"Brother, are you coming to Shantou and the United States for business?" the taxi driver asked curiously while driving.

Lu Fumin smiled: "It's true that I'm here on business."

"You're here to inspect the Guizhuling Recycling Plant, right?"

"Oh? Brother, you have good eyesight."

The taxi driver showed his big yellow teeth: "Haha, it's not because of my good eyesight, but because there are a lot of people from the yamen coming here these days, and I have received two waves of such business."

"so much?"

The taxi driver responded calmly: "Not many. After the contract in Tuocheng was signed, many places from Guangdong and Fujian provinces came over. You are too late."

Lu Fumin smiled helplessly: "Actually, I came here quite early, but it was too far."

"Your accent sounds like that of Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia. You can't really come from the Northwest!"

"Haha, we just came from Tianshui."

After chatting all the way to the hotel, Lu Fumin and others, not wanting to waste time, asked the taxi driver to go straight to Guizhuling Industrial Park.

Arrive at the gate of Guizhuling Industrial Park.

There were already more than a dozen people checking in at the door. Their accents sounded like they were from northwest China. After following for more than ten minutes, I realized they were from Chang'an City.

As soon as the two parties heard each other's background, they immediately went together to form a group to inspect the factory. In order to receive these visitors these days, the factory also organized a professional reception staff.

After visiting the garbage recycling plant area, they came to the partially open sewage treatment workshop and saw a steady stream of sewage being purified into pure water.

Seeing the water in front of him being continuously discharged into the drainage ditch and then flowing into the river, Lu Fumin felt distressed. He had inspected the two water plants in Tianshui before, and the water quality was far worse than this pool of water.

He said to the Chang'an team leader standing aside: "This technology can be used in water plants, but I don't know how much it will cost."

Chang'an team leader Pang Haoran turned to the receptionist and asked: "Xiao Zhang, are your company's sewage treatment equipment for sale?"

"This involves some confidentiality. The company's equipment is not sold to the outside world. It can only be used by ourselves for the time being." The receptionist Xiao Zhang replied with a smile.

Hearing this situation, Pang Haoran, Lu Fumin and others were disappointed.

In this regard, Suiren Company uses bundled sales, and must agree to the environmental sanitation contracting and water contracting before it is allowed to set up a factory in the local area.

On the one hand, it is for the sake of long-term water flow. After all, selling equipment is a one-time deal, and setting up a factory to sell water is a sustainable industry, so it is natural to give priority to setting up a factory to sell water.

After more than three hours of inspection, the inspection teams from Chang'an and Tianshui arrived at the headquarters of Suiren Company.

Jiang Hailin, who came from Tuocheng, temporarily took charge of the work for Lin Baijie. The two parties discussed for a while. Pang Haoran and Lu Fumin had no way to make a decision regarding Suiren Company's request to contract sanitation business, water affairs and enter the gas market. They could only make a decision. Return to their respective cities with the cooperation plan.

Like them, there are indeed not a few cities that are troubled by this problem.

Just as the country was recalling the Olympics, it was also caught in a craze because of Suiren Company's new recycling plant.

In September abroad, we suffered a fatal blow.

Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, which instantly triggered the subprime mortgage crisis and plunged financial markets around the world into chaos.

In his busy schedule, Huang Xiuyuan took the time to communicate with Xiangjiang's managers. Huang's International, which seized the opportunity, made a lot of profits in the past ten days.

The funds currently reserved in Xiangjiang have reached 736 million yuan.

He immediately transferred 500 million yuan and returned it to Suiren Company in China in batches.

With this capital injection, the amount of cash held by Suiren Company has reached 5.2 billion yuan. You must know that this is cash, not assets.

The market value of many companies is tens of billions, but if they are asked to come up with 5.2 billion in cash, they may not be able to do it, especially those Internet companies that are full of water. Let alone 5.2 billion in cash, it would be good if they don't have tens of billions in debt.

With sufficient cash, Suiren Company began to expand wildly.

For example, the newly established Tuocheng Branch took out shares of the land and water company and borrowed 300 million from the bank to invest in garbage recycling plants, sewage treatment plants, water plants, liquefied gas storage stations, logistics warehouses, and employee dormitories. .

September 18th.

Huang Xiaojun from Veolia China Branch came to visit with an inspection team.

Suiren Company actually knows a lot about this peer, because Pengcheng's investment plan has an indirect conflict of interest with Veolia.

Since Lin Baijie was still in charge of the work in Tuocheng, and Huang Xiuyuan was not interested in making compromises with the other party, Jiang Hailin could only take the initiative.

Jiang Hailin, who had just been promoted to deputy general manager of the head office, received him at the head office. After some business exchanges, Huang Xiaojun tried his best:

"We at Veolia are very optimistic about the recycling technology and sewage treatment technology developed by your company. I wonder if we can visit the specific situation."

"The visitor is a guest, so there is no problem." Jiang Hailin smiled on the surface, but in fact he was wary of the other party.

Arriving inside the Guizhuling Industrial Park, Veolia's people had their electronic equipment taken away, and only five people were allowed in. They were still followed one-on-one.

Moreover, the core area inside the factory has been kept confidential for a long time. As long as Suiren Company does not explain clearly, it is almost impossible to figure out the details.

Especially those key technologies and operating costs, which are the top secrets of Suiren Company, are naturally impossible to tell these foreign companies.

After watching it for a few hours, Huang Xiaojun could only see some superficial superficial knowledge. The specific operating costs and the technology used to achieve it were all in a foggy state.

During this period, he also tested Jiang Hailin, but unfortunately the answers he got were all ambiguous, without even a single specific data.

Faced with this situation, Huang Xiaojun and his party were helpless.

It seems that Suiren's technology is very powerful. The problem is that operating costs are the key. To achieve this level of recycling, Veolia can also do it, but the cost is too high to accept.

If Suiren is deceiving people, Veolia would not dare to gamble, especially since this year's subprime mortgage crisis has severely affected them and they have to slow down their business expansion in China.

Judging from Jiang Hailin's attitude, the other party is very cold towards Veolia.

Sure enough, after making the acquisition and shareholding proposal, Jiang Hailin refused without hesitation before he put forward specific conditions.

Jiang Hailin also rejected the last proposed technical cooperation. As a senior executive of Suiren Company, he knew that there was a lot of stuff.

In his opinion, Veolia's technology is just rubbish worth mentioning. There is no shortage of technology or funds, and it is backed by the huge market of China and has an official cooperation background. Jiang Hailin cannot think of cooperating with the other party. reasons.

The disappointed Huang Xiaojun, faced with Jiang Hailin who was unable to make any progress, had no choice but to give up and return to the headquarters of the Peking Branch with his people.
