After the two talked about the steel plant, the topic naturally turned to the energy that Wen Rengui was most concerned about. Now that Yangpu's CNOOC Petroleum Terminal has been built, the oil depot, which is a national strategic reserve, has begun to store oil. The plan for the submarine oil pipeline from Yangpu to Guangdong has also been put on the agenda. Wen Rengui talked about CNOOC's current report and wanted to build its own petrochemical project with the construction of the prototype Yangpu Petrochemical Industrial Park as the core, breaking the embarrassing situation in his previous life, although he was one of the "three barrels of oil" that monopolizes the national oil industry, he was the only embarrassing situation where he did not own his own petrochemical company.

People who exploit oil internationally know that oil extraction is to make hard money, and refining is the easy business to make a lot of money. Many famous oil-producing countries in the world are facing a strange situation where they have abundant oil reserves but cannot meet the demand for domestic oil products. The problem lies in the lack of refining capacity of their own countries. Iran, Nigeria and other oil-producing countries often have to import gasoline for domestic people to drive cars, while poor oil countries such as South Korea and Japan can sell their petrochemical products to the world at a high price, which is a typical example of technology being higher than resources.

As a big country, especially a country that has been subjected to joint sanctions by the United States and the Soviet Union, China attaches great importance to the petrochemical industry. Since the petrochemical industry is an industry that requires high input and high output, for historical and financial reasons, the petrochemical industry has been under direct management of the state for a long time. Even after the reform, the petrochemical industry is still firmly controlled by the two major companies established by China National Petroleum Corporation and Sinopec, forming a de facto monopoly.

Although this situation ensures the independence of the national oil industry and plays a great role in building a complete domestic petrochemical industry. However, over time, the monopoly position of the two barrels of oil has objectively caused many problems such as the relatively closed domestic petrochemical industry, lags behind international technology, poor service awareness, and low efficiency.

The central government has also conducted reform experiments on this point, and has relaxed the door to private capital entering the petrochemical industry. However, in the face of the strength of the "two barrels of oil" that has become one of the world's top 100 companies, it is still a vulnerable mantis. Therefore, industry insiders put the hope of breaking the oil monopoly on CNOOC, which can be at least barely comparable to the "two barrels of oil".

After CNOOC successfully listed overseas with the help of Xingfu Investment the previous year, it was full of confidence in expanding its oil territory. Not only did it want to be the focus of a new round of marine development on the continental shelf near Hainan, but it also wanted to build its own petrochemical industry chain with Hainan as a base. Now, Yangpu, Dongfang City, Haikou and Wenchang, Hainan, CNOOC construction teams are sweating profusely to build petrochemical plants.

In response, Wen Rengui stated that he supported CNOOC to challenge the petrochemical monopoly position of the "two barrels of oil", in addition to breaking the monopoly to introduce vitality to the oil industry. If Hainan builds a strategic oil reserve inventory and a large petrochemical base, it will be of great benefit to the development of Hainan's military and civilian areas.

Military, with the construction of Wenchang Aerospace Base and the future establishment of aircraft carriers and nuclear submarine bases in Sanya, Hainan, Hainan, which has its own oil industry chain, can maintain its long-term combat potential even in the face of enemy blockade. Civilian use has played a role in promoting Hainan's rapid development of tourism, transportation, etc. Especially after Hainan relaxed its rights to sail, many foreign airlines landed in Hainan, and were very dissatisfied with the high-cost aviation kerosene provided by the country and required it to be in line with the international level. It provides cheap aviation kerosene.

This problem has begun to restrict the rise of Hainan's aviation industry. The Hainan government has repeatedly reported to solve the problem. If CNOOC can build a complete petrochemical industry chain in Hainan, the problem will naturally be solved. It can also add a new and powerful economic pillar to Hainan, which has a weak secondary industry foundation.

However, CNPC and Sinopec are two towering trees with entangled interests. If they want to challenge their interests, even the Prime Minister cannot act rashly. Fortunately, the central government has reached a consensus on the development of the ocean in recent years. CNPC has many preferential policies for CNPC, which involves marine business. Offshore oil mining, which obtains a lot of money from the ocean, is completely monopolized by CNPC, so CNPC, which has policy and financial support, is not a soft persimmon that can be controlled by anyone. The drama between it and the "two barrels of oil" has begun, which involves a more complex political game and it takes a while to decide the outcome.

In addition to traditional energy, Hainan is surrounded by the sea on all sides and is located in the subtropical zone, with sufficient sunshine and sea breezes. It is an ideal experimental environment for solar energy, wind energy and tidal energy generation in renewable energy. Wen Rengui has long noticed that the street lights, help phone calls, electronic warning signs, etc. on the Hainan Ring Road Expressway have solar panels, fan leaves and other devices.

After asking, I found out that it was an agreement signed by Zhongxing Group and Hainan government. The group launched experimental new energy power generation products on the expressway and adopted the most advanced power storage and smart grid technology. The government provided subsidies to not only meet the electricity demand for these electrical appliances, but also store and sell excess electricity to power grid companies. It can also rescue emergency from the ordinary power grid when a new energy power generation device fails. While ensuring the normal use of highway power equipment, it greatly reduces the electricity consumption and has a very good effect.

Wen Rengui is very interested in this. After all, using green and environmentally friendly renewable energy is an international trend. As a major developing country, China currently mainly relies on traditional energy such as coal and oil. However, given the environmental damage and non-renewable nature of these energy sources, the country has long proposed to increase research and promotion of new energy, including renewable energy. At the beginning, Yang Xing could persuade Wen Rengui to be his new backer, and Wen Rengui valued Yang Xing's far-sightedness in new energy. Now that we can see that Yang Xing is indeed convinced and has begun to practice his ideals in Hainan, Wen Rengui is very pleased and feels that he is indeed inhuman.

Wen Rengui himself is a professional geological exploration and has special feelings for new energy. He was a little excited and revealed another news to Yang Xing, that is, a few days ago, a major discovery was made in the coal mine exploration in central Inner Mongolia, which was invested and implemented by the Central Geological Exploration Fund. Not only did he find a super-large coal mine with a resource of 51 billion tons, but he also found a super-large uranium mine in China.

Together with the previous exploration results in the Yili region of Xinjiang, the cumulative amount of uranium resources discovered in northern my country will make my country one of the world's major uranium mineral powers. This is of great significance to my country's domestic foothold, increasing the supply of uranium resources, increasing the utilization of nuclear energy resources, and ensuring national energy **.

This discovery of the super-large uranium mine broke the prejudice that China is a "depleted uranium" resource country in the domestic geological community, and also made the central geological exploration fund that was established shortly after the establishment of a new era. With the acceleration of my country's industrialization process, resource consumption has increased significantly, especially the foreign dependence of major and important mineral resources such as oil, iron, copper, and aluminum has been continuously increasing, and resource and environmental constraints have intensified accordingly, which has become an important factor restricting the rapid development of the economy and society.

In order to change this situation, the central government has launched an effort to increase revenue and reduce expenditure on both sides. In terms of reducing expenditure, it has established the National Strategic Materials Administration to strengthen domestic resource management efforts, crack down on the smuggling and outflow of mineral resources at low prices, and reserve some rare resources in the country. In terms of opening up, it has increased support for mineral resource exploration from the central government's finances, and the state has invested in the preliminary exploration of energy and important mineral resources, appropriately improve the level of work, reduce commercial exploration risks, and guide and promote commercial mineral exploration investment. This is the first time in China that social capital is allowed to intervene in geological and mineral exploration and share exploration results, and is a major breakthrough in my country's resource field reform.

Originally, it would take several years to promote the establishment of the fund in his previous life, but in order to support Wen Rengui, Yang Xing donated hundreds of millions of yuan as the start-up capital of the terrestrial exploration fund. Therefore, the fund was born several years earlier than his previous life. Unexpectedly, he won a good start with just one move. What Yang Xing didn't expect was that he discovered a super-large uranium mine, and he couldn't help but proudly traveling through the crowd's luck.

The large uranium mine discovered this time is of great significance to the country. In addition to building more nuclear warheads, the main thing is to meet the needs of nuclear power generation. After all, China promises not to use nuclear weapons first, so there is no need to compare the number of nuclear warheads with the United States and Russia. Wen Rengui is more concerned about meeting the needs of domestic nuclear power plants.

He then discussed with Yang Xing that considering that Hainan has poor basic resources, traditional energy such as thermal power and hydropower are not highly efficient, and renewable energy is still in the experimental stage, and the most promising development is nuclear power plants. Recently, the domestic plan to introduce foreign third-generation nuclear reactors and self-developed fourth-generation nuclear reactors has also been launched. Can Hainan intend to become the site of a new nuclear power plant?

Yang Xing rarely expressed his opinion immediately when he heard this. In his previous life, he was quite entangled with nuclear power plants. When he thought that nuclear power in France, Japan and other countries accounted for more than 50% of the country's electricity consumption, he felt that this was the most promising potential stock in new energy. But when he thought of the Chernobyl and Japan's Fukushima nuclear accident, and was worried about the danger of nuclear radiation, it was not a wonderful thing. Once something happened to a nuclear power plant, it would be a super disaster!

Fortunately, he is not fighting alone now. Seeing that it is late at night, he first asked Wen Rengui to rest and continue to discuss this matter tomorrow. After turning around, he called Yu Ge and other members of the secretary class, and ordered them to use the group's global network to collect everything about nuclear power plants. Even if he had to work overtime all night, he would have to have an accurate reply when he went to meet Wen Rengui tomorrow.

Although he was very dissatisfied with Yang Xing's exploitation, Yu Ge always felt that after this trip to the Middle East, his friend Kong Siyu and his boss had a wrong view. She was worried that her secret was revealed and did not dare to retaliate. She immediately woke up researchers distributed around the world through the group's newly upgraded global video conference network, especially the experts on nuclear physics from the Stardou Research Institute called together to provide advice for the boss.!~!
