King of Industry

  Chapter 798 is still far from a steel power

  After Zhao Guoyang's second round of speeches ended, the "instigator" Jia Zhichun burst into complacency.

   Hearing the warm applause from the audience, the Jia leader turned to the side of the "host" Chen Xianshang and said with a smile: "Old Chen, how are you? Shocked or not, surprised or not?"

   "Damn, Lao Jia, your hidden 'big killer' is too powerful. As the leader of the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry, my understanding of railway rails is far inferior to that of this Researcher Zhao!"

   Zhu Xinmin, who was a body away, nodded vigorously in response when he heard the words.

  Indeed, Zhao Guoyang’s second round of speeches just now is even more exciting than the first round. It is entirely from a higher height to look at the replacement of domestic railway rails.

   Several bigwigs on the stage have no doubts that Zhao Guoyang's narration will be published on the front page of the Metallurgical Industry Daily as soon as today is over.

   No way, it's really wonderful!

   After waiting for a while, the applause gradually subsided. Chen Xianshang coughed and took the microphone.

This big man expressed his admiration for Zhao Guoyang's speech just now, and then turned his gaze to Li Kejian who was sitting on the other side and said: "Mr. Li, although you are the leader of the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry, you are also the leader of our metallurgical industry." Ministry's 'insiders'!"

   "How about it? Director Hong and Leader Jia have already called the roll call, so why don't you join in the fun?"

  Li Kejian said "Oh", nodded, and said, "Well, the narrator I want to choose is also Zhao Guoyang."

  After listening to Mr. Li's calm words, the audience was in an uproar.

   "Damn, isn't it? It's Zhao Guoyang again! Who the **** is this kid?" The boss of a steel factory asked with his mouth wide open.

"Yeah, this is too amazing. During the free speech session, the three leaders named a person's name at the same time. The point is, this person is still a young man who has never shown his face in the metallurgical system! If this matter If it spreads out, no one will believe it, right?"

  On the rostrum, Chen Xianshang did not expect this result.

  He opened his mouth, forced a smile and said, "Mr. Li, you see Director Hong and Leader Jia have ordered this researcher Zhao just now. If you still order him, will you scare other children?"

  Chen Xianshang is fifty-six years old this year. No one thinks there is anything wrong with describing "Zhao Guoyang" as a child.

  At first, he thought that Li Kejian would listen to his euphemistic persuasion, but who knew that after he said this, Li Kejian spoke up in disapproval.

"Leader Chen, you don't know something. Director Hong and Leader Jia just called Zhao Guoyang's name for temporary reasons. As for me, I made an agreement with Guoyang three days ago that he must come Give me a speech at today's meeting. I have already reserved the space for the first edition of the New Year's edition of "The Frontier of Industry" for him."

  After Li Kejian said this, everyone in the audience was shocked.

  The current bosses and chairman of these iron and steel companies absolutely admire and admire Mr. Li.

  As you all know, this Taishan Beidou in domestic industrial technology is definitely not a liar.

  Since he said that he had this agreement with Zhao Guoyang, it must be true.

   Moreover, listening to Mr. Li's tone, it seems that he has known this researcher Zhao for more than a day or two. What is the situation?

  Compared to the noisy surroundings, Shen Zhirong beside Zhao Guoyang was quite calm.

  Because he was familiar with Mr. Li before, Shen Zhirong knew early on that Mr. Li regarded Zhao Guoyang very highly.

  At a meeting like today, it is normal for Mr. Li to ask Zhao Guoyang to show his face and tell everyone about the latest technological developments at home and abroad.

  Among the scene, perhaps the only one who was a little downcast was Zhao Guoyang.

  He just spoke two times in a row, and his voice has long since dried up.

  The point is, if you go on like this, this meeting will become your own personal performance, which must arouse the resentment of others.

   Just when Zhao Guoyang hesitated, Li Kejian on the stage spoke again.

   "Well, Guoyang. You just talked about a lot of content, so I will lower my requirements."

"In this way, you can give a speech for ten minutes, and don't talk about too esoteric questions. Let me analyze the current technological level of the world's leading steel producers. By the way, I will predict how much we need for China to catch up with others. long time..."

  Chen Xianshang on the stage, his eyes lit up when he heard what Li Kejian said.

   As far as the topic mentioned by Mr. Li is concerned, the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry has always paid more attention to it.

  Chief engineer Lin Yuan has gone abroad many times before to investigate some heavyweight steel manufacturing enterprises abroad.

  However, due to the blockade of domestic technology by Western countries, the information that Lin Yuan and the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry can obtain is very limited.

   Some of the most advanced production technologies, it is impossible for foreign companies to take you to visit.

  However, I just listened to the two speeches of this researcher Zhao, and it seems that his understanding of the level of foreign advanced technology is two or three levels beyond everyone.

  If this young man can give some suggestions and opinions in this regard, it will undoubtedly be of great help to the work of the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry next year.

   Li Kejian talked about this point, of course Chen Xianshang couldn't stop it.

  His eyes fell on Zhao Guoyang, and he said cheerfully: "Researcher Zhao, it seems that you have to fight again, otherwise, Mr. Li will not let it go lightly!"

   Zhao Guoyang, who had a huge head, heard the words, but he could only bury his depression in his heart and stood up slowly.

  As soon as he stood up, Zhao Guoyang put aside all other emotions and quickly entered the state.

"Everyone, since my country's crude steel output exceeded 50 million tons in 1991, it has ranked second in the world's steel output for three consecutive years this year. It is no exaggeration to say that our country is already the world's largest steel manufacturing country. !"

   Zhao Guoyang's words resonated with everyone.

   Many CEOs of steel companies showed excitement on their faces.

   Indeed, since the reform and opening up, the progress of China's entire steel industry has been obvious.

  Now domestic heavyweight iron and steel enterprises such as Baosteel and Anshan Iron and Steel have already ranked very high in the global annual output ranking.

  According to this development momentum, maybe within a few years, three or four of China's top ten steel production companies will be able to squeeze into it.

   Just when everyone was relieved and excited, Zhao Guoyang poured cold water on everyone again.

   "However, although our country's steel output has jumped to the second place in the world, it is no exaggeration to say that China is still far from being called a steel power..."

   "Give me the simplest example!"

  Zhao Guoyang said with a solemn face: "In the past three years, although my country's steel production has been increasing day by day, the amount of imported steel is also growing rapidly."

   "Just last year, China has replaced the United States and become the world's largest steel importer!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang's face showed a hint of emotion: "Unlike the imported products of the United States, which are mostly crude steel products, most of the steel imported by China is steel for ships, aviation steel, etc. special steel produced.”

   "The unit price of these steel products is far higher than the imported steel products from Laomei. This fact is enough to explain many problems!"

  After hearing this, the entrepreneurs and bosses in the audience all showed a little uncomfortable look on their faces.

  Indeed, there is nothing exaggerated in what Zhao Guoyang said.

  Although the output of Huaxia Iron and Steel remains high, the output ratio of special steel and alloy steel with technical content is pitifully low. This situation is not unknown to everyone. But wanting to change is by no means a one-day effort.

"Enhancing the international competitiveness of Huaxia Iron and Steel Industry is not only directly related to the development prospects of my country's iron and steel industry, but also related to whether my country can successfully cultivate a supporting industry that is truly internationally competitive, so as to promote the competitiveness of the entire country. An important guarantee for improvement."

  Zhao Guoyang waved vigorously and said: "The convening of our metallurgical work conference today is also for the country to revitalize the iron and steel industry and let everyone find a way to catch up with the international advanced level."

   "Therefore, we must not be complacent because of some small achievements we have made. How to brainstorm and work together to make progress together in technology is what we have to do?"

  After hearing Zhao Guoyang's narration, Chen Xianshang on the rostrum also slowly put away his smile.

He nodded slightly, and said to Zhu Xinmin, the deputy leader who was not far away, approvingly: "Old Zhu, this Xiao Zhao said it very well! Turn around, you tell all the comrades in the department what he said today. Let’s talk about it, so that everyone must cheer up.”

   "Good leader Chen, I have been paying attention to this researcher Zhao before. Don't worry, I have recorded everything he said before!"

   "Good, good!" Chen Xianshang sighed twice, without saying anything.

  Under the stage, after Zhao Guoyang finished speaking for a while, he said in a solemn tone: "The iron and steel industry, as the basic industry of the national economy, is an important indicator of a country's comprehensive national strength and industrialization level."

  "Looking at the century-old development of the global iron and steel industry, influenced by technological progress and market demand, the evolution of the regional structure of the iron and steel industry is often accompanied by the reincarnation of major countries."

  Looking at the important task listening carefully below, Zhao Guoyang narrated calmly: "As the former overlord, America's steel industry has been its pillar industry for the past few decades."

   "America's geographical environment and area are similar to ours in China. The development of its steel industry is of great reference value to us, and Laomei has always been at the forefront of the world in the innovation of the steel industry!"

  Zhao Guoyang sighed and said: "Maybe everyone has also felt it. Since the 1990s, the improvement of the international industrial technology level can be described as changing with each passing day."

   "In the past year alone, many extremely important industrial inventions and innovations were born. Among them, in Laomei, more than ten inventions and innovations were born..."
