Focus on real-time hot spots: 3,000 tons of Pakistan Railway meltblown cloth are suspected of being fake and inferior products
On July 6, 2020, there were no new confirmed cases in Beijing that day. After the small-scale riots in Beijing in June, the country once again entered a period of general peace. The panic of the special period will continue for a long time in the future. Also continuing will be the various economic disputes and various tricks that emerged during this period centered on the transfer of materials. Some people seized the opportunity, but there are more Many people get stuck in the quagmire because of their innocence or greed.
Started in March 2020 and ended on May 1, 2020, in the supply of materials that are difficult to distinguish between genuine and fake Among them, a 3,000-ton Pakistani melt-blown cloth involving nearly 1 billion yuan was considered a thrilling event. The only good thing is that after the first batch of 100 tons of meltblown cloth arrived in China, it was found to be fake and shoddy products, and the buyer directly refused to accept the goods, preventing this batch of shoddy raw materials from being further processed into masks and entering the market. Based on the calculation that 1 ton of melt-blown cloth can produce 1 million disposable masks, 100 tons of melt-blown cloth is equivalent to 100 million masks. If such an incident really occurs, the consequences will be terrible and unimaginable.
A letter triggered a shortage of meltblown cloth
In mid-March, the domestic epidemic situation declined and the international situation gradually strengthened. More than 100,000 domestic mask factories are in full swing. With the development of the Great Leap Forward, domestic melt-blown cloth factories with Sinopec as the core could not meet the needs of mask factories. For a time, melt-blown cloth from all over the world began to enter China through various channels, and many enterprises and institutions joined this global resource game. In the process of importing it into the country, domestic mask factories have difficulty finding fabrics, and they are also cautious, fearing that they will encounter the dilemma of spending money to buy melt-blown fabrics and encounter difficulties in distinguishing the authenticity from the fake ones.
Under this relatively contradictory relationship between supply and demand, a letter issued by the Chongqing Liangjiang New District Water and Soil High-tech Industrial Park Management Committee The official letter to Jinpeng Airlines shows a huge and sweet cake to many hungry factories: 3,000 tons of meltblown cloth imported from Pakistan, which is cheap and high-quality, and will soon enter China.
The content of the letter was described in the “Southwest Business Daily” news report.
The letter stated that since the epidemic, masks have been used frequently as a material and the demand is strong. Meltblown cloth, as its core raw material, is also crucial. At present, domestic enterprises producing anti-epidemic materials are experiencing a shortage of raw materials. In accordance with the spirit of relevant documents, protection work has been strengthened. This time, the management committee entrusted “Chongqing Zhongyiyuanchuang Biomedical Technology Co., Ltd.” to purchase 3,000 tons of melt-blown cloth from Country B (Pakistan) to Chongqing City, and entrusted Jinpeng Airlines Co., Ltd. to implement air transportation, thereby easing the The shortage of raw materials for production enterprises in Chongqing and Liangjiang New Area also lays a solid foundation for the comprehensive resumption of work and production and prevention and control of enterprises in Chongqing.
The public release of this official letter is a timely help for the mask factory. It is a good rain after a long drought. Because of the water and soil As an industrial park management organization led by the local government, the High-tech Industrial Park Management Committee is more authoritative and trustworthy than state-owned enterprises and companies affiliated with central enterprises.
Just such an official letter, as well as very complete product introduction information and test reports, quickly made the two companies in Shanghai and Wuxi sign contracts without hesitation to become dealers of this Chinese-Israeli company and start taking orders from outside. , and quickly completed the 100-ton order.
At this time, the external price offered by China-Israel to dealers is 280,000/ton, and the external sales price of dealers is more than 330,000/ton. Such prices are very good in China in March. Competitiveness.
The second letter, Ease the anxiety of late goods
According to the agreement signed between the China-Israel Company and the dealer, the goods can be delivered within 2 working days after the dealer pays 50% of the payment. The delivery location is at Chongqing Airport .
Time has passed and the goods are far away. This is understandable to everyone amid the shortage of international logistics routes during the epidemic. It may be to appease the urgent mood of customers, or it may be to continue rapid marketing of Pakistan Meltblown Announcement, China-Israel Corporation has issued a second official letter.
The official letter comes from a private non-enterprise unit called “Chongqing Zhongguancun Lianchuang Medical Engineering Transformation Center” (registered with the Chongqing Civil Affairs Bureau, and the business supervisory unit is the Chongqing Liangjiang New Area Management Committee). It is issued to the Chinese Embassy in China. The Consulate of Pakistan in Lahore, in addition to once again emphasizing that “the Chongqing Liangjiang New Area Water and Soil High-tech Industrial Park Management Committee entrusted a Chinese-Israeli company to purchase 3,000 tons of melt-blown cloth from Pakistan”, hopes that the consulate will coordinate the application of Pakistan’s NOC certificate to speed up the melt-blown cloth Imported into the country.�Picky test reports, flawless product sample videos and physical samples are provided. This combination can easily make mask manufacturers and dealers succumb to the pit of 100 tons of meltblown cloth, and there is no recovery.
Unavoidable Greed: Responsibility under Crazy Moves
Beginning in May, China’s domestic meltblown cloth prices finally began to adjust, the market calmed down, and the craziness of masks was also ahead of schedule In the end, the situation where it was once hard to find a piece of cloth was no longer there, especially the speculators and middlemen who wanted to borrow a piece of glory and returned to their original normal lives.
Only the payment for the goods is still unavailable, and the Chinese-Israeli company has not yet entered the second batch of goods into China. It is said that China-Israel is coordinating the return matter with the Pakistani factory, but what everyone knows well is the price of this batch of goods. It can’t even cover the freight cost of the charter flight. This batch of goods has no value.
The Industrial Park Management Committee and the Zhongguancun Transformation Center that issued the letter are also silent. In this special period, no matter what their purpose is, the fact that still cannot be changed is that they hastily acted without going through the process. Without any investigation and verification, an official letter was issued to a company that was incapable of carrying out the transaction, causing market agitation.
The dealers are collecting debts from China step by step. They are using the advance payment from the mask factory to order melt-blown cloth from China, and China is using the advance payment from the mask factory to order melt-blown cloth from Pakistan. , for China, Israel and dealers, it is a profitable business without any economic cost.
Only the mask factory is the real victim. After waking up, they also need to reflect on why they were so impulsive in trusting dealers and China and Israel, and why they did not respond in time after each unfulfilled promise occurred. Stop loss.
They said they believed their friends’ introductions, and they said they believed those two official letters, but none of this can conceal the reality that we attach great importance to business compliance.
In this greedy incident, institutions, companies and entrepreneurs in every link must reflect on their own sins and responsibilities, whether it is the park management committee, the Zhongguancun Transformation Center, whether it is China-Israel Companies and distributors, as well as trading companies and factories in Pakistan, the net they actively or passively weave has blocked a lot of private mask factories and cut off their possible development opportunities in special times.
For such harm, it is not unique in the overall summary of epidemic prevention materials, but it is very representative. We should give an explanation to the society, a warning to the high-quality development of China’s economy, and a warning to the resumption of work. A satisfactory solution for small and medium-sized enterprises that have resumed production. Don’t let credibility and brand endorsement become a sharp sickle, let alone treat helpless small and medium-sized enterprises as leeks to achieve your own wealth.
