Chapter 308 Group Headquarters; Beida River Management
No matter how exaggerated the spread of water hyacinth is, or how serious the pollution of Dianchi Lake is, Guo Yang has embarked on a journey back to the northwest.
And, I probably won’t be running around anymore for a while.
During this period, there have been a lot of things going on, and there are only about 300 points of natural energy left.
But everything that needs to be done has been done. It is foreseeable that Jiahe will receive a large amount of cash in the next one or two years.
With money, it is natural to invest in the transformation of the northwest environment.
Renovation requires dealing with water and various plants. The demand for natural energy is very strong.
On the plane, in the seat near the porthole, Guo Yang opened his eyes with his eyes closed in deep thought.
Looking at the undulating land beneath our feet, in summer, dots of green appear on some mountains.
But what’s more, it’s still a yellow wasteland. The desert is solitary, the flat sand is endless, and the white fields are as white as the bones. The description of the ancients is very appropriate.
The land remains unchanged.
“I don’t know when the earth will be green.” Guo Yang said to himself.
On this return trip, in addition to Guo Yang and Luo Xiu, there were also Yan Shu and Xu Pei, all king creatures.
Yan Shu is the person in charge, and Xu Pei is a newly recruited graduate from Quanwang. Both of them heard the boss's muttering.
“Speaking of which, it hasn’t rained for a long time.”
"Yeah, we are going to be hit by a disaster this year."
"The Yellow River Conservancy Commission has issued a warning. The four northwest provinces have received less precipitation since they entered the flood season, and some reservoirs are almost dry."
The northwest is deep inland, and moist airflow is difficult to reach, so drought is the norm, and the social feeling of drought in the northwest is not very obvious.
But once the rainfall is slightly less, it will have a serious impact.
Especially in agricultural and pastoral areas that are in the irrigation period.
In order to compete for water, there are many conflicts in various places.
Guo Yang doesn’t have a good solution for this kind of thing for the time being. The estimated investment of the Hongqi River Project envisaged by later generations will require more than 4 trillion yuan.
Jiahe does not have this ability now, and it is unrealistic to open an opening for the Himalayas.
The best way now is to grow kenaf from the Hanhai Sea around rivers and lakes, and sea buckthorn from the Gobi desert to capture existing water sources.
Seeing that he was about to take the destination, Guo Yang stopped falling asleep and looked at the porthole, Yan Shu and Xu Pei.
The two were still communicating.
“The treatment of the Lanshi section of the Yellow River has not been effective.”
“It’s not that easy. So much industrial wastewater and domestic sewage are discharged into the river every year. How can we do it without closing it down? Can it be controlled?”
“I heard that more than 20 sewage discharge units that polluted water sources have been closed down.”
“It’s still early. Some people saw oil floating in the river last month. .”
While chatting, the two of them also felt something was wrong, and saw the boss staring at them.
Finally, Yan Shu couldn't help but asked: "Boss, are we quarreling with you?"
"It's okay, it's okay, you talk about yours, and I'll listen too." Guo Yang hurriedly smiled.
Yan Shu felt strange and couldn't help but touch his face. Why was the boss always staring at his face?
Is there something dirty on your face?
"Has Quan Wang developed any whitening skin care products? I feel like you take good care of yourself."
Yes! Yan Shu looked at the boss's dark skin and almost couldn't help laughing.
“In the group photo of the employees of the company below Jiahe, there are not many with fair skin.” Guo Yang smiled and said: “If there are, don’t hide it and choke.”
Yan Shuxiao He said: "Yes, there is, but I have never used it. However, even the company's sun protection method does not work for sun protection and skin care."
Guo Yang even had the idea of cultivating a related variety for a while. .
"Well... when you go back, you can tell Yu Qin that you can also try to develop sunscreen, whitening and skin care products."
Seeing Yan Shu and Xu Pei's eyes twinkling, Guo Yang added: "Don't tell me I use it, just tell me The boss is looking for the welfare of his employees, and everyone will be given a summer suit when the time comes."
Yan Shu nodded and could only turn his head and try his best not to laugh out loud.
……
The hot sun is scorching the earth.
Even the air felt a little unreal.
While passing by the Gobi, Jiahe's headquarters also took shape. Looking from a distance, two houses were paired with a strange building covering a large area.
The weird building seems to imitate the mountainous terrain. The facade is like a mountain with terraced open spaces on it.
When viewed from above, it looks like a 'grain' shaped plane.
This is a stacked roof farm.
It is connected with the surrounding buildings and ground greening, just like the prototype of a park.
But it’s not finished yet, it’s just a lifeless building.
On the Gobi Desert outside the headquarters, there is an isolation zone of hundreds of meters. Beyond the isolation zone is the sea buckthorn forest, and further away is the kenaf.
Although the weather is hot and dry, the seabuckthorn forest is emerald green, and the drip irrigation tape under the seabuckthorn forest trees can occasionally supply water.
Waiting until next year, the first batch of three-year-old seabuckthorn trees can be completely separated from artificial irrigation.
The operation path between the rows is also dotted with some low and green weeds.
Hanhai kenaf has also ushered in the three-month flowering period, and worker bees are flying among the flowers, working hard.
The temperature in the entire more than 300,000 acres of Gobi seems to be a little cooler because of this.
Even on the banks of the Tuolai River (Beida River), there are many traces of kenaf, which conserves the water source in the river.
This is the flood season.
In the canyon section, the river water is rapid, and in some sections the water is so clear that you can clearly see the sand and gravel on the bottom of the water.
Such a scenery made Guo Yang feel a little relaxed.
I still remember that at the beginning of the year, Lao Song mentioned a few things when he picked him up in Jiuquan.
The first is the rising housing prices in Jiuquan, the second is the shortage of academic degrees, and the third is river pollution.
The land for the house, Jiahe, has been taken, and the donation for the school has been implemented very well. In addition to Jiuquan, Gannan and Sichuan provinces are also the focus.
Nowadays, it seems that the river pollution has been solved, but it is not completely pollution-free.
The rivers around the city are not so beautiful. Although it is not considered polluted, it is not very clear either. In some places, sewage outlets can be seen.
The discharged wastewater also has color.
……
“The concentration of ammonia nitrogen seriously exceeded the standard, and the dissolved oxygen and fecal coliforms slightly exceeded the standard.”
“The main reason is the polluted water bodies in the Jingtieshan mining area upstream, and secondly, the urban domestic sewage has exceeded the processing capacity of the sewage treatment plant.”
“In addition, a new pharmaceutical company has entered the city, and although the sewage discharged is It meets the standards, but the color is heavier.”
Niu Hulin introduced the situation of water pollution to Guo Yang.
Jiahe did participate in the management of Tuolai River.
Alfalfa Engineering Department does this.
Returning farmland to grassland and forest, grassland restoration, water body management, etc.
However, in the past two or three years, I mainly followed my mentor Weng Lixin, took on a lot of work in the Gannan grasslands, and earned some hard-earned money intermittently.
After the completion of the Gannan grassland management, Niuhu Forest was transferred back to Jiuquan.
Guo Yang sighed: "Treating the symptoms but not the root cause!"
Niu Hulin said: "We have communicated with the city. The city's big boss Qin Lijun said that a new sewage treatment plant will be built."< br>
"When did you communicate?"
"A few years ago."
"Is there any news now?"
"Not yet."
"Does the pharmaceutical company have anything to say?"
"The companies that have just been introduced have already invested a lot in the early stage. If you want to upgrade the sewage treatment system, you will have to spend a lot of money."
"I will communicate this matter, and the engineering department will do the river greening construction, and Sowing of kenaf."
Guo Yang took over the matter.
If we want to cure the root cause, the most important thing is the Jingtieshan mining area, followed by the discharge of domestic and industrial wastewater in the city.
Jingtieshan Iron Mine is the main iron material base of Jiuquan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., which is larger than Jiahe Iron and Steel Co., Ltd.
River pollution is not serious now, and the city is not very motivated to improve the environment.
For most people, it is difficult to get results when they go to the city.
Guo Yang didn't want to wait too long, so he took out his cell phone and dialed the number of Qin Lijun, the new big boss in the city.
"Boss, are you free today? I need help from the city for something."
On the other end of the phone, Qin Lijun smiled and said: "Mr. Guo, you really do everything. Climb the Three Treasures Hall.”
Generally speaking, Guo Yang is not very used to dealing with officials.
From the beginning of saline-alkali land management, after Alfalfa obtained various ditches, roads and other infrastructure policies, Guo Yang rarely sought help from the government.
This is all official business, and the money Jiahe should pay is not less.
Leaders will not be hot-tempered but cold-hearted.
However, with the rapid development of Jiahe, not only the taxes brought by it are getting higher and higher, but the impact has also penetrated into all aspects of the local area.
The city must pay more and more attention to it. Even if Guo Yang doesn't show up much, many tasks are progressing smoothly. Now that Boss Guo has come to visit him personally, can things be any better?
Qin Lijun, who has only been in office for one year, attaches great importance to this.
"It's not a big deal. I just thought I haven't had a drink with the leader for a long time, so I specially prepared some good wine and tea."
"Okay." Qin Lijun said : "Just what Mr. Guo said, as long as it doesn't violate the principles, I will find a way for you."
Guo Yang couldn't help but vomit in his heart: "This doesn't mean you didn't say anything."
After making an appointment, Guo Yang asked Luo Xiu to prepare, and then asked Ning Xiaojing to deal with the documents during this period.
Although more than 20 billion has been invested in Jiahe grain and oil, Jiahe is really not short of money today.
Tianhe is still a cash cow;
Although the alfalfa forage business has declined, the income brought by Alfalfa No. 1 seed is terrifying enough.
There is also Jiahe Grain and Oil, which cost about 10 billion to 11 billion to stock up on grain, but originally Gaode was selling old grain and buying new grain.
Now that we have contacted AIG again, we have accelerated the export of grain in order to lure people into taking the bait.
The price difference alone is enough to make a profit.
The losses in soybean processing have also been smoothed out.
Moreover, before the arrival of 2009, the income of Jiahe Cereals and Oils will not be low.
With money, Guo Yang naturally wants to do things.
River management is only one aspect, mainly to solve some water source problems in this way.
Kenaf can conserve water sources and is definitely useful, but it is not an aquatic plant and has limitations in pollution control.
So, we still need to cultivate plants. Water hyacinth is a good target. We just need to control its breeding ability.
Guo Yang added another option to the word document.
Previously, there were flowers, fruits and vegetables, extreme environments, and insects, but now water management has been added.
Looking at the remaining three hundred points of natural energy, Guo Yang felt the urgency again.
......
"God is acting up again. There is no rainfall in the rainy season, and agricultural and pastoral areas are working on drought relief again."
"Not just Tianhe, all Irrigation areas have strengthened the allocation and management of water resources.”
The big boss Qin Lijun whispered: "Jiahe can mine groundwater."
In the past two years, environmental protection management has been lax, and there are countless cases of over-exploitation of groundwater. Jiahe is also extracting it, but it is only in moderation.
So Qin Lijun didn't say anything.
“Leader, when I talk about improving the Tuolai River, I don’t mean water resource allocation, but water environment management.” Guo Yang explained.
“A wide and clear river is a good thing for the entire urban environment.”
Qin Lijun remembered that Jiahe had mentioned this matter last year.
However, I was fooled by his few words at the time, and I didn’t expect Jiahe to take this matter so seriously.
Qin Lijun muttered: "The Beida River pollution control has been very effective. Is the pollution not that serious now?"
"The source of the pollution has not been contained yet."
After speaking, Guo Yang handed over a document and said: "Indicators such as ammonia nitrogen and fecal coliforms are still exceeding the standards and are serious."
"The new urban area of Jiayuguan is built along the river, and a lake park is planned. Once completed, the urban environment will leave Jiuquan far behind."
Qin Lijun frowned and thought deeply, the movement of Jiayuguan cannot be concealed, and the new urban areas on both sides of the strait Construction has already begun.
“Jiayu Pass has Jiuquan Iron and Steel, and it is financially wealthy!”
“Jiahe is also in Jiuquan, and it has brought in a lot of profit and tax income in recent years, and Jiahe will also contribute to this matter. . ”
In terms of operating income, Jiugang is still above Jiahe. Last year, Jiugang ranked among the top 500 domestic companies.
But in terms of profits, Jiugang can't even catch up.
What if...
Qin Lijun asked: "Does Jiahe want to invest?"
"Jiahe definitely wants to invest." Guo Yang said: "Don't forget, the leader. Jiahe's new headquarters is also on the edge of the Beida River! The park spans both sides of the river. "
"In the future, we will inevitably have to deal with the river water. Naturally, we hope that the upper and lower reaches of the river will be clear, so that the houses on both sides can be reflected. in the water.”
Jiahe's Gobi headquarters is downstream of Jiayuguan, but upstream of Jiuquan City.
Qin Lijun couldn't understand why Jiahe was willing to spend money to manage the Jiuquan River downstream, but this should be a good thing for Jiuquan.
After weighing it in his mind for a moment, Qin Lijun agreed.
Only then did Guo Yang express his thoughts.
“Since it is necessary to do it, it must be done well. Not only the river must be managed, but the Silk Road Park along the coast should also be planned together.”
"Two parks can also be built in the north of the city."
"Some polluting enterprises in the city should be shut down as soon as possible, and new domestic sewage plants should be launched as soon as possible."
" The leadership of that pharmaceutical company must have introduced it, and their sewage treatment system also needs to be upgraded."
After finishing a series of words, Qin Lijun was already a little stunned.
Both the park and the sewage treatment plant are municipal projects. It is impossible for Jiahe to pay for this, and the project may also be contracted by Jiahe.
If I remember correctly, Tianhe also has a flower nursery, which can also generate an income.
However, these are just a drop in the bucket compared to Jiahe’s investment, and the city can now come up with this money.
The trouble is another thing...
“Everyone is looking at GDP now. Shutting down companies at this time is not conducive to economic development.”
From a long-term development perspective The advantages definitely outweigh the disadvantages, but if Guo Yang approached Qin Lijun from this perspective, he would definitely not be able to convince him.
We were already prepared in Guoyang.
“Leader, I don’t need to boast too much about Jiahe’s influence in the domestic agriculture and animal husbandry industry, right?”
Qin Lijun nodded.
Guo Yang said: "Forage, seeds, milk, biological breeding, environmental restoration, and high-end agricultural products... Jiahe has done a great job in each of them, and there are countless companies that rely on it."
"Jiahe The headquarters is not only a headquarters, but also an agricultural industry cluster with high technological content, large room for growth and significant driving role.”
"This is a trillion-level industry."
"It is also an eco-tourism industry."
"If developed well, Jiuquan's business and tourism will be even more powerful, and it will also improve the image of the entire city. A huge improvement."
"In comparison, what does it mean to sacrifice a little small and medium-sized industrial enterprises that pollute the environment?"
Qin Lijun took a sip of tea and waited for a while before speaking. Asked: "Mr. Guo, can Jiahe maintain rapid growth in the next few years?"
Guo Yang smiled and said: "Leader, according to my opinion, Jiahe has not entered a real period of rapid development."
"The Gobi Desert to the west of Jiayuguan and to the north and south of Jiuquan may be Jiahe's targets in the future. . ”
“In the next few years, the income from the industry surrounding Jiahe will only get higher and higher.”
Qin Lijun agreed again.
Seed production of fruits, vegetables and flowers is one of the rare industries that can be successfully developed. It was even rated as the ‘aircraft carrier of the seed industry’ by the Farmers Daily.
Among them, Tianhe Seed Industry is the core.
Without Tianhe, it lacks core breeding capabilities and can only be considered big but not strong.
“Even if the ammonia nitrogen exceeds the standard, does the city need to coordinate with the Jingtieshan Mining Area?”
“Maybe we need to trouble the leadership.” Guo Yang said, the environmental pollution of the mine is indeed very troublesome. .
At this time, environmental protection had not yet been taken seriously, and the most stringent environmental protection law in history would not be introduced until 2015.
Now it is not the least difficult to get Jiugang to use money to engage in ecological restoration.
"Leadership, everything depends on human effort, and you can accept it if it doesn't work out."
"One day I invite everyone out, sit down together, and talk about this matter?"
"According to your arrangement."
Boss Guo left two bottles of wine and two boxes of tea. Qin Lijun opened the tea box and looked at it. He couldn't help but smile when he saw that it was indeed kenaf tea.
...
In the next few days, the city indeed took action.
The environmental protection department conducted a major environmental inspection, and some companies and restaurants that discharged illegally were ordered to make rectifications.
Qilianshan Pharmaceutical even approached Jiahe to purchase activated mud through Qin Lijun, but Guo Yang didn't even know it existed.
After asking, I found out that the Algohe Engineering Department had previously purchased a batch for sewage treatment in several Jiahe factories.
Everyone in the company is very concerned about the construction of the group headquarters.
Located in the Gobi between the two cities, Jiahe is also destined to be deeply bound to Jiayuguan and Jiuquan.
The Beida River that passes through the city is naturally the top priority.
“The headquarters is finally ready.”
“When I think about changing offices, I suddenly feel reluctant to part with the flowers and plants in the garden.”
"It's okay. The greening effect of the new headquarters will only be greater. When the isolation belt and rooftop farm are built, the scene will be beautiful just thinking about it."
"I have a hunch that the headquarters will definitely become popular. . ”
Listening to these discussions, the smile on Xu Xuenong’s face became brighter and prouder.
Then he entered the boss's office.
