300 days of a coal boss

The road map of resource economy adjustment is miniature.　　This newspaper reporter Zhang Yanli Liu Yang (from Shanxi xiaoyi) lit a cigarette, slowly spit a group of smoke, Guo-zhi mountain leaning against the chair, closed eyes, a long breath, feel has never been relaxed. Black Gold Dream out "every day sleep not steadfast, my mobile phone is a grenade, afraid of the night phone rang, coal mine accident too much."　　Now in retrospect, Guo Jishan's life as a coal boss was tough. This year, 46-Year-old Guo Jishan is a Xiaoyi xia Bao Xiaoyi town in Shanxi Province, who was once a member of Xiaoyi's "Army of coal bosses". In fact, more than 10 years ago the domestic coal situation is not very good.　　Considering the cost of early investment in coal mines, Guo Jishan want to go to sea but very puzzled--is with the tide, "the sea" to operate their own coal, or to the state-owned coal mine to find a job, Guo governs the mountain wandering around. Guo Jishan to find two former friends, we sit cross-legged. Try to figure it out, eventually three of people agree--raise money, their own boss addiction.　　Since 1996, dry has been nearby for 10 years. 2004, the domestic coal mine situation improves, the coal price soars, "The black Gold" time arrives. "The chance is lost, and when I come I see you catch it."　　Guo Jishan Frankly, he can't restrain the manic in the mind, can't wait to do a big fight. Although the coal mine Prophase Project investment is very big, but looking forward to two or three years after the coal production can enter 200 million yuan in the future he is willing to invest.　　In 2006, Guo Jishan invested in the construction of a 300,000-ton coal mine in Shilou County. June 13, 2008, a sudden accident like a clear sky Thunderbolt hit Xiaoyi. Shanxi Xiaoyi Coal Industry Co., Ltd. reported that the main bottom of the hole exploded, 35 miners were taken away from life.　　Immediately, Xiaoyi all small coal mine all shut down. A 300,000-ton coal mine from construction to production of the general cycle of 2-3 years, 2008 is the Guo Jishan investment in the coal mine is coming into operation, but he was unfortunate to catch the bus.　　The coal mine was shut down, his nearly billion investment in the twinkling of an eye into a abandoned mine.　　One after another to smoke, a trip to Bandi run the city government, to the relevant departments to inquire about the time of coal recovery, that period of days let Guo Jishan burnout. Only 3 months later, the Shanxi provincial government on September 2, 2008, a paper "on speeding up the merger and reorganization of coal mining enterprises Document" Let Guo Jishan's black gold dream completely to naught. The paper stipulates that the size of coal enterprises in Shanxi Province shall not be less than 3 million tons/year, and the number of mines is controlled within 1500 seats. A year later, Shanxi province again issued the "further accelerate the merger and reorganization of coal enterprises Notice", the single mine capacity limit of 900,000 tons/year.　　The two documents, which have a sensational effect in Shanxi and even across China, are mainly aimed at small coal mines-all the small coal mines in Shanxi will all be merged by state-owned big mines, and the coal mines in Guo Shan are not spared.　　By the government compulsory integration, Guo Zhi Shan can choose only helpless. According to the final agreement, Guo Zhi Shan can get 100 million yuan of merger compensation, and the $100 million may not be enough to invest in coal mines.　　Investment of more than 80 million yuan in infrastructure costs, coupled with more than three years of follow-up investment and production costs, Guo-Shan's investment has exceeded 100 million yuan.　　An annual 300,000-ton coal mine has a net profit of at least 200 million yuan a year, and for Guo Jishan, his losses are far from being filled by compensation costs.　　Helpless, confused, even regret and be blamed, Guo Jishan is in such a complex state of the end of the coal boss career.　　Xiaoyi pains Guo Jishan is only a microcosm of the owner of Xiaoyi Coal in Shanxi province, with at least dozens of coal bosses with similar fortunes in a county-level city with a coal economy as its main economic source. "Being integrated is a good thing, although the amount of compensation is not up to what I put in, but I can barely accept that my mine could be ' shot ' if it wasn't integrated."　　Xu Jianguo, the coal boss with the same fate as Guo Shan, said in an interview with China Economy and informatization. Xu Jianguo has an annual output of 150,000 tons of coal, but reserves of only 4 million tons, the coal mine is the 2008 coal market when the most fire at a price of 63 million yuan to buy. June 11, 2008 just started production, it is due to "6?13" accident and discontinued so far. The coal mine integration to the Yuan Gold Coal Industry Co., Ltd., Yuan Jin coal industry and Shanxi Coal Transport group as a whole received, assessed to give him 40 million yuan compensation.　　The compensation price is more than 20 million yuan worse than the bid. Xu Jianguo to the reporter said: "Just started to feel very depressed, feel the original ate ' grievances '." Now think about it, if I do not raise the scale of production in 2010 years, it will be difficult to escape the fate of being closed, so it will be even greater. "Xu Jianguo is now running a 40,000-square-metre commercial and residential building project.　　Compared with him, Guo Jishan is undoubtedly lucky.　　In fact, the impact of coal production from industry consolidation on the Xiaoyi economy is far greater than that of dozens of coal bosses. "2008 occurred ' 6?13 ' accident, Xiaoyi the city's 100 small coal mines all shut down to rectify, and in Shanxi province after the notice issued coal change, the hundreds of small coal mine has 63 formal closure, 37 have been in the province 12 large coal mine mergers. The 37 small coal mines identified as being merged are being rebuilt. "Xiaoyi party committee Secretary Zhang Xuquang told the Chinese economy and information" reporter.　　Data show that the merged 37 mine average reserves of 13.02 million tons, minefield area of 2.309 square kilometers, single well scale 201,900 tons. Xiaoyi is the only resource-exhausted city city in Shanxi province. Xiaoyi because of coal and Hing, in a sense, is the coal will xiaoyi into the "national hundred strong." The whole city char, coal electricity aluminum, coal iron and steel three industrial chain is driven by coal, according to coal and strong.　　Nowadays, the Xiaoyi coal industry is almost all in a state of stagnation.　　The whole "shutdown" of Xiaoyi's coal industry has spread to the entire coal industry, which is far more painful than the coal industry itself. "Xiaoyi Coal economy accounts for Xiaoyi GDP and the entire financialThe proportion of income exceeds 50%. And the coal source did not, a series of follow-up effects came, when the days are very difficult. "Zhang Xuquang recalled that the coal mine just began to rectify the period of time, is still full of pain," xiaoyi pillar industry is nothing but coal, coking. Affected by the shutdown of the coal industry, Xiaoyi's clean coal industry has tens of millions of tons of coal washing capacity every year because it is idle. Similarly, 12 million tons of coke are affected, with this matching coking gas industry is also affected.　　"In the face of Zhang Xuquang meditation, the journalist seemed to see the desolation of last year's Xiaoyi.　　The affected coal economy also includes the transport industry, which has been thriving, and the Xiaoyi transport sector has been shrinking after all the coal industries have stopped. "In the past this road is full of coal-carrying vehicles, one after another, now do not carry coal, the road less car." "A local resident surnamed Wu on the roadside pointed to a big old truck and said to the Reporter:" Such a broad road, the past is to transport coal. Before the traffic jam, now not blocked, but looking at the sporadic truck, I miss the past full road when the coal car. "People say so can be seen as a desire for the Xiaoyi economy to rise again." Xiaoyi Coal economy of the overall setback, at that time has affected the employment of ordinary people.　　"Zhang Xuquang that the impact on people's employment also affects consumption, which is a series of reactions caused by the economic setback of the coal system." The reporter learned that, 2009 the whole year, the coal industry almost did not make any contribution to the Xiaoyi GDP, caused the city revenue to be affected greatly. "Last year 7, 8, 93 months are the most difficult Xiaoyi economy, the average monthly revenue of only 200 million yuan, GDP has fallen to the lowest point."　　Zhang Xuquang to reporters frankly, with the Xiaoyi economic restructuring of the gradual progress, now the financial situation has been greatly improved, from March this year, basically every month can reach 400 million ~5 billion level. Transformation breakthrough face reporters, Guo Jishan sometimes tense, sometimes excited. So far in retrospect, Guo-zhi-shan or frankly, the original transformation has been "coordinated" component.　　He even reluctantly thought that his fate, like a small coal mine, "was harmonious." Like Guo Jishan, the fate of this particular group is indeed worrying. "At that time is the coal boss's coal was acquired, the hands of money do not know how to spend."　　"Guo Jishan said. Wang Zongze, deputy director of Xiaoyi Agricultural Industrial Park, told the Chinese economy and informatization reporter, "Some of the coal bosses have a sense of social responsibility, they want to do things, want to work for the country, but not all coal bosses are the same idea, there are aren't eager, except that the coal industry to make money faster, do not want to do anything else, Then began to take money to gamble, wasted.　　"What you want to do is one thing, but with the money, what to do, how to do it, it became a stone in the mind of Guo-zhi shan." Guo Jishan finally ushered in a turning point at the time of Xiaoyi, and the industry transformed into their lifeline.　　This group of people, similar to the fate of Guo Shan, also has a chance to choose their own path of life. Using coal mine to compensate for the merger100 million yuan investment in agriculture, this is Guo Jishan response to Xiaoyi industry transformation policy made an important decision.　　And the Xiaoyi government's "investment 100 million government to subsidize 5 million yuan" encouragement policy has strengthened the determination of Guo Zhi Shan transformation. April 15, 2009, Guo Zhi Shan's agricultural Starch Co., Ltd. in Xiaoyi Agriculture Industrial Park, next to the Administrative Committee building. "Although the original expectation of the 200 million is gone, but I am now very relaxed, the past that day the day of fear no longer have."　　"Along with the rumbling of the machine, Guo Jishan with a hand to the production line from the end of the exit from the continuous slide down the corn flour."　　Transition to agriculture is only one Direction of Xiaoyi adjustment of industrial structure, meanwhile the aluminum chemical industry has become a Xiaoyi choice. "Shanxi's industry, in addition to coal, coke industry, is steel, cement, building materials." All along, the extensive and heavy-duty energy extraction and industrial raw materials industry have been continued. The consolidation of coal mine has provided a significant opportunity for Shanxi, which is the development of transformation.　　Zhang Xuquang said that for Xiaoyi, more diversified development, extension of the product industry chain, increase product value-added. Zhang Xuquang is very busy this time.　　Before the interview, the reporter was informed that interview time was only half an hour, the reason is that half an hour later, Zhang Xuquang and Chinalco (hereinafter called Chinalco) Vice president of Xiaoyi cut supply to the number of bauxite ore related matters. Xiaoyi bauxite rich in resources, the proven reserves of 260 million tons. In the past, almost all of the bauxite mined were bought by Chinalco Monopoly. The reporter in Hangzhou jinjiang Group under the Xing ' an chemical plant to understand that bauxite as the main raw material of the 4A Zeolite project is currently encountering the problem of raw material shortages.　　Due to shortage of raw materials, the original Phase II project was delayed. According to the original plan, Xing ' an chemical 4 a zeolite project capacity design of 2 million tons.　　The first phase of the 100-ton project was built in 2008 and was completed and put into operation in 8 months. "Although it was quickly built, the current first phase of the project was not going well." Xiaoyi itself is rich in resources, but we have to from Jiangxi and other provinces to the redeployment of resources. "Xing ' an chemical plant related staff told the" China Economy and Information "Reporter:" because the raw materials are not enough, the first phase of the project can not be full production, the second phase of the project can only be stranded. The first phase has invested 3.5 billion yuan, now the cost is very difficult to recover ah. "That's the problem we're dealing with." In the past, Xiaoyi bauxite had been monopolized by Chinalco, but now we need to take back some of the needs for our economic restructuring. At present, the domestic electrolytic aluminum is also surplus, so we do not develop electrolytic aluminum, and now bauxite as a raw material for the chemical products sold well, the price is high, so we develop this industry.　　Zhang Xuquang told reporters.　　Xiaoyi bauxite industry is now expanding in this way. "The industry is diversified, the east is not bright in the west." The coal industry is not going to be replaced by agriculture and aluminum industry, then the city industry, building materials industry and service industry will develop accordingly.　　Zhang Xuquang told reporters. This year, XiaoyiDevelopment plan to build a blueprint for economic transformation. To encourage large coking enterprises, large groups to develop tar processing, crude benzene refining and other characteristics of products, to create tens of millions of tons of world-class coking industry base; 2010, the formation of 3 million tons of alumina production capacity, and actively guide enterprises to extend the industrial chain, in the national open tender 100,000 tons of aluminum projects; Support the launch of 120 tons of high calcium cement project, such as a series of projects are becoming Xiaoyi industry transformation of the bright spot project.
