Why is Huaxi Village so rich?

"The first village in the world" is well known. Every family lives in a villa and drives a luxury car. But today, Huaxi Village in Jiangsu, the "richest village in China", has lost its scenery.

By the first quarter of 20 16, there were 208 subsidiaries of Huaxi Group, whose industries involved steel, textile and chemical fiber, materials, commerce and others, with total assets of 5,465,438+93 million yuan. The total liabilities are 38.907 billion yuan, and the asset-liability ratio is 68.78%. Among them, interest-bearing liabilities amounted to 24.57 billion yuan.

The debt ratio of nearly 70% shows that with the gradual decline of the traditional industrial model, Huaxi Village, once the benchmark of rural economy in China, has reached a crossroads, and difficult transformation is inevitable.

Huaxi Village is set up as a typical example of rural areas taking the road of * * * bringing wealth. Under the leadership of Wu Renbao, the former secretary of Huaxi Village, we firmly grasped the pulse of the times: "Planting land in the 1970s, building factories in the 1980s and building cities in the 1990s"; The villagers staged the myth that farmers became rich, and each household saved over 10 million yuan, making it one of the richest villages in China. Wu Renbao really has a unique vision and is good at reading politics. He always went with the flow and created a rural legend, but he was too politicized and doomed to decline today.

Without understanding the market, Huaxi village iron and steel enterprises began to decline from the historical high point in 2008. Gross profit rate data show that the gross profit rate of steel plate of Huaxi Group decreased from 2.32% of 20 1 1 to -0.22% of 20 12. At present, Huaxi Iron and Steel has neither scale effect nor technical guidance ability in the whole steel industry, and its geographical position is not dominant. At present, Bofeng Iron and Steel, Northwest Iron and Steel and Southwest Iron and Steel, the three major iron and steel enterprises of Huaxi Group, all suffered losses.

Huaxi Group began to set foot in the shipping industry during the financial crisis in 2008. In the first quarter of 20 16, Bao Li International and Huaxi Ocean Engineering, which are in charge of marine transportation and marine engineering business, both suffered huge losses, with net profit losses of 594,97438+million yuan and 65.438+0,806,438+0.6 million yuan respectively.

This 320-meter-high, 1 ton, multi-billion-dollar building has also become a huge burden for Huaxi Village in terms of daily management costs.

The original Huaxi Village merged with the surrounding villages and built thirteen villages of "Great Huaxi". Among them, villages 3, 4, 5, 12 and 13 are "money houses", and villages 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 1 are "granaries" and/kloc-0. Among them, Qianzhuang bears the economic responsibility of the whole village; Granary is to develop tourism and meet food self-sufficiency; Heaven is built for ordinary people. Villagers in the central village enjoy the highest level of welfare benefits, enjoy dividends at the end of each year, their children's education is free, and their study abroad is fully funded by the village.

In the "Xanadu" in Huaxi Village, local villagers live in western-style single-family villas, and the residential area behind the villa area is rented by migrant workers. Someone said, "Unless you marry Huaxi Village, you have no chance to become a villager in Huaxi, and naturally you won't enjoy welfare."

The gap between the villagers and the people in Xinhuaxi Village is also obvious. Bypassing the industrial zone to the three villages, four villages and five villages in West China, the gradually changing buildings are very conspicuous. The central village, surrounding villages and migrant workers are the triple worlds of Huaxi Village.

If Huaxi Village wants to continue to be brilliant, it must take the road of transformation, otherwise it will be difficult to read the book Market Economy well.
