The fifth volume, the one hundred and twenty-seventh chapter
You Wangang nodded slowly, "Zhengyang is right, the central government is indeed brewing big moves. CNPC and Sinopec are very likely to form a giant enterprise that is vertically integrated upstream and downstream like Changhe Energy as you said."
"It's not just that." Sha Zhengyang further said: "The central government is definitely not just reintegrating the assets of these two companies. It is no different from the original Sinopec. The central government has also seen the huge drawbacks of the monopoly model of state-owned enterprises, so it has cultivated two companies that can compete with each other. This also means that once the two companies separate, they will compete in all areas."
"This way, the monopoly problem can be solved by splitting apart, and competition can be truly formed?" Zhong Guangbiao, who had not spoken much, couldn't help but interrupt: "If you really want to form vicious competition, I'm afraid the country will not allow it? Without substantial competition, there is a greater possibility of forming a tacit monopoly, right?"
Zhong Guangbiao's words came to the forefront. In fact, this is also the development model of Sinopec's future, and even the price is determined by the National Development and Reform Commission. The import rights of crude oil have not been allowed to intervene for a long time, whether it is a state-owned enterprise or other nature. This tacit monopoly has also been criticized and criticized by consumers.
Of course, Sha Zhengyang knew what the future situation would be like, but at this point, it was better to have competition than not, even if it was a tacit competition.
Now that he has been involved in this field, he certainly has to make a difference in this field.
"Secretary Zhong, as China wants to join to, there will definitely be some changes in many fields. Of course, China's national conditions are special, so we can always find some reasons to explain it." Sha Zhengyang smiled, "But I think there will be some action competition between China Petroleum and Sinopec at least in the early stage, but the upstream mining field is basically delineated, and the benefits of pipeline construction are not obvious yet. The refining and chemical industry mainly relies on huge investment and business management, but there is a lot of work to do in the sales industry."
"I can assert that the future battle between PetroChina and Sinopec will first be carried out in this area, and it may even be quite tragic, because if anyone controls the sales terminal and when both companies have sufficient strength and resources, it means that he will be invincible in this area."
It is convincing, but it is reasonable and well-founded, and cannot be believed. At least Lu Tonghao highly agrees with Sha Zhengyang's view.
"Then what does this mean to us Changhe Energy?" You Wangang could also see this and asked with a frown slightly.
"You high-ranking officials, that will be very unfavorable to the development and growth of Changhe Energy." Sha Zhengyang said in a deep voice: "Once these two companies start a war, they will fight with each other. They will compete in every region. That is to say, if we cannot seize the opportunity, then when they all start to fight a competitive war, our strength is not as strong as the other party and we will definitely not be able to compete with each other. Perhaps we will be limited to the corner of Hanchuan in the future, and even in Hanchuan, we will be able to compete with each other in sales. Perhaps the only possibility is that after joining To, the country allows foreign oil and gas giants to enter the Chinese market, and we can only compete with foreign oil and gas giants."
Sha Zhengyang's prophecy made You Wangang and the others think deeply, and Lu Tonghao could no longer help: "You senior official, I think Zhengyang's statement is very reasonable. The establishment of a sales terminal network is very necessary. In fact, in addition to Sinopec, PetroChina, there are many gas stations of various economic nature among the people, but they are all weak parties who do not control the oil source. As long as the oil companies cut off their oil or raise their prices, they will only be starved to death. Except for our long river, we have our own oil source, and we are backed by the provincial party committee and government, no one can control us."
Lu Tonghao didn't say anything. On the Hanchuan territory, whoever wants to control Changhe, then the provincial party committee and government can control him. Whether it is CNPC or Sinopec, it is the same. Just like Qindu Refinery, the crude oil mined from Changhe Petroleum cannot meet the demand, and CNPC did not say that it would cut off the oil from Qindu Refinery. It's that simple truth.
"Mr. Lu is right. In the Hanchuan territory, no one can control Changhe Oil, but is Changhe Oil only planning to be limited to a corner of Hanchuan?" Sha Zhengyang asked back, "Why haven't you considered developing and expanding to surrounding provinces?"
"Ah? Expand to surrounding provinces and cities?" Lu Tonghao, You Wangang and others were shocked again and looked at each other.
"Yes, why not?" Sha Zhengyang said lightly: "Central Petroleum and Sinopec can, and the country has also supported its industrial layout, but the country has not stipulated that the oil refined by Changhe Petroleum cannot be sold to other provinces and cities, right? In this case, why can't provinces like Sichuan, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, and Anhui, Jiangxi, Jiangsu, Shanghai, and Zhejiang along the Yangtze River sell their oil? In terms of transportation, we can completely meet the conditions."
Lu Tonghao hesitated for a moment, "There may be many factors. First, we may have never considered selling to outside the province. Second, the wholesale channels of gas stations in these provinces and cities are basically controlled by Sinopec. Third, the gas stations in these places cannot directly sell our oil, and other gas stations dare not accept our oil. Once we cannot supply it, it is probably impossible for them to inject oil from Sinopec."
"So we have to change the impossible to possible." Sha Zhengyang's tone was neutral and peaceful, but he was very firm. "I didn't think about it before, but now I can consider it. But the wholesale channel did not before, so we can build it. Of course, this channel is definitely not that simple. If I do not get the support of local party committees and governments, it is very difficult, so I wrote in the plan that I can absorb some special capital to expand capital strength. This special capital refers to the state-owned capital of these provinces and cities."
"In fact, we can bring in the state-owned capital of these provinces and cities we want to enter, form a community of interests, and tie them to us. Channel construction is not a problem at all. With more abundant capital, we can completely use the methods of new construction, acquisition, and franchise to quickly build a sales channel belonging to our long river in these provinces and cities!"
"Well said!"
You Wangang and Lu Tonghao were applauding almost at the same time, obviously Sha Zhengyang's opinion was too subtle.
To build a community of interests, as long as state-owned capital at the provincial, municipal and even municipal levels is brought in, then the construction of channels in these places will be no problem at all.
Sha Zhengyang is very clear that the petrol station approval authority has not been received by the oil authorities yet, and local economic commissions in various places can approve it.
If it is delayed for another year or two, perhaps this authority will be taken away by the oil authorities. At that time, it will be much more difficult to obtain support from the central level.
"After solving this problem, the entire channel problem can be solved easily. To be honest, if possible, I even suggest that some private capital can be absorbed, because considering that if we want to go abroad, the capital we need will definitely be large in scale. At this level, we need more resources, capital, and various local network resources, so that we can help our development. As long as we can control the dominance, we can talk about it..."
This suggestion made You Wangang and others frown again. It was obvious that Sha Zhengyang's too advanced "mixed reform" suggestion made it difficult for them to accept.
Sha Zhengyang could only sigh in his heart that he did not have the ability to change this part, and hoped that his butterfly wings could accelerate the realization of this change in the future.
"Zhengyang, you can't say where to absorb private capital for the time being, but the suggestion you mentioned to absorb state-owned capital in other provinces and cities to build a community of interests is very good. We have never thought it would be too creative. If there is support from local party committees and governments in various places, channel construction will be very convenient. In addition, when facing the pressure from central enterprises such as PetroChina, we can also have greater confidence. After all, the prosperity and decline of enterprises are directly related to their interests." Lu Tonghao praised it.
You Wan was about to be a little more reserved, but he was still moved by Sha Zhengyang's genius creativity.
As soon as Sha Zhengyang came, he made breakthroughs in two aspects. On the one hand, he went abroad to look for opportunities from the source of oil sources, and on the other hand, he laid a solid foundation from the sales terminal. If both of these hands can be successful, Changhe Petroleum can indeed usher in a leap.
You Wangang's heart was surging and unable to calm down.
Today's discussion gave him too many surprises and shocked too much.
He also realized that this plan was too huge, so huge that it was not something that he, the vice governor, could make the decision.
He must give a special report to the two main leaders as soon as possible.
He even felt that Sha Zhengyang must have some content that has not been disclosed yet in this plan.
But the content is now rich enough, and the head is a little too late to hold, and it takes him some time to slowly digest and understand.
