Chapter 105: Conditions

Huang Hebin wanted to see Ojosan, and after a few days, Cao Mo directly invited Ojosan to Draculamo.

The dividends that the Felician family can get from the gold mine and building materials are still very limited, and for the time being, they can only keep an eye on the construction of the transmission grid, and the new power grid company also has the biggest interests of the Filician family at present.

With the completion of the 300 million kWh annual transmission scale in the early plan, the Felician family will be able to share almost $1.2 million to $1.5 million in excess profits from the new grid and Sika Idet Power Company each year.

It may take three or four years to achieve this goal, but compared to the fact that the Felician family has only invested $700,000 so far, the profits can be described as windfall profits.

Once the transmission grid is completed, there is no need to continue to invest in the future, and only a small amount of operation and maintenance costs are required, and the scale of revenue can continue to expand with the construction of new hydropower stations in the upstream.

In contrast, Cao Mo, in the name of Felician Power Company, needs to continue to invest in the construction of new hydropower stations upstream, so that the scale of transmission can continue to expand.

From this role, the construction of upstream hydropower stations undertaken by Cao Mo is far more thankless than that of downstream transmission grids, and it is difficult to compare with the transmission grid in terms of profitability alone.

In fact, Cao Mo must suffer this loss in order to facilitate this matter.

If there weren't enough low-hanging fruit at their fingertips, how could the three big families of Blake, Oppenheimer, and Rupert come together to make this happen?

Of course, this is from the perspective of what has already happened.

However, how many people are willing to suffer this loss in the first place?

It was only after this incident that Ojosan could truly admire that this young Chinese man had a more far-reaching business vision and mind than the Yoruba businessman he had seen before, and this time he was very happy to rush to Draculamo to perform with Cao Mo.

At this time, Zhou Han took out the draft plan that Cao Mo had seen before, and after making some adjustments.

Regardless of how much Taihua is bound to win, if you don't want to waste a lot of money on building your own thermal power package, you need to be able to get the power supply from the Felician family power company, and then it's time to push for other work – and there is not even resistance in other areas.

Except for some sporadic manufacturing in the capital city of Catelo, there is not even a single river port terminal in Oyo that berths ships of more than 3,000 tons, and no one else, from Governor Blake to officials in the Lunta area, looks down on the land on the eastern shore of Lake Conero, and there is no conflict of interest.

In addition to the industrial park and the lake port, plus a small oil refinery as a start-up project, the initial investment of Thai-Hua is 30 million US dollars.

This is arguably the largest foreign investment project in Oyo in recent years.

Abba was also extremely excited when he saw the draft plan that Taihua had taken out - there was nothing for him to do today, but he had been on the phone with Ojosan last night and learned that Ojosan was going to rush to Dracula to discuss the power supply agreement, so he rushed over to join in the fun.

Cao Mo wants to build a security wall, except for signing a power supply agreement with Taihua and ensuring power supply for it after the completion of the Taihua Industrial Park, he will not have other direct involvement with Taihua.

Of course, Cao Mo will not let Abacha intervene specifically to promote the project of the Taihua Industrial Park.

............

............

After the initial meeting, Huang Hebin, Zhou Han, Yao Haiming and other Taihua people left first after having a meal.

Cao Mo La Abacha and Ojo San sit on the private beach of the Lana Dere Hotel to blow the sea breeze.

It's a pity that Lily didn't come with her father, otherwise watching Lily, a girl with a sturdy body like a deer, running on the beach, would have been much more beautiful than several white fat mothers scratching their heads there.

Cao Mo did not tell Abacha the truth, but still persuaded him not to meddle in the project of Taihua Industrial Park:

"In China, the most important thing to pay attention to in the way of an official is to advance and retreat and measure - the merits and achievements that should be handed over to others must be given up quickly. Do you think it's good if you make these two projects your own achievements, and make your colleagues in Lonta, Governor Brooke, and the dignitaries of the Oyo State government so incompetent and so overshadowed? There is an old Chinese saying that the wind will destroy the wood, and Mr. Ojosan must have heard of it. ”

If you say that people who are inextricably linked to the old military government of Kanem may have some experience of Cao Mo's words, but Ojosan was the backbone of the opposition to the rule of the military government in his early years, and he has always been an academic scholar, so he has not been directly involved in politics, so he lacks a deep understanding of Cao Mo's words.

However, he knew and deeply admired the great achievements of China's construction and the 5,000-year-old historical and cultural heritage, and he even thought that Lily would win a place to study in China after finishing secondary education.

Cao Mo suddenly put the problem aside from him, Oqiaosang was stunned, and subconsciously took over the topic and said: "It doesn't seem to be too good to be too public......"

"If I don't interfere, when will the Taihua Industrial Park be delayed?" Abacha is not yet thirty years old, and he has become famous at a young age and has young aspirations, where can he appreciate the essence of Taoguang's cultivation, and asked somewhat reluctantly, "I can not get involved in this matter, but I should ask Governor Blake to come forward in this matter......"

Oyo has not had such a large-scale investment project in recent years, and Abacha can still know more or less about humility, but he thinks that Blake can make this happen, which should be of great help to Blake's political popularity.

However, Blake is currently their biggest backer, and it is impossible for Cao Mo to stuff this ray into Blake's arms, and said to Abacha:

"Taihua is a billion-dollar listed company in China, and since they want to promote a project, they have a way to do it — and besides, they are closer to the Giddham family in Draculamo, so I asked them to ask the Jidam family to come forward and dredge up the relationship......"

Although Cao Mo still didn't tell the truth, as soon as he heard that the matter might be related to the Jidam family, Abacha immediately retreated.

The last time he was treated roughly, Abacha also regarded it as a great shame.

During this time, he seemed to use the energy of the Chinese to promote the construction of the transmission grid, to put it bluntly, to get back face from the Jidam family.

Psychologically, he refused to deal with those close to the Jidam family.

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then forget it, they like to push whoever they want to go, we will do a good job in the Lake Conero Industrial Park project, it will be enough......"

............

............

Of course, Cao Mo doesn't want to have anything directly involved with Taihua and the Jidam family, who are hiding behind the scenes and don't want to surface for the time being, but it doesn't mean that the interests that should be fought for will be given up.

Obviously, the electricity supplied to the Taihua Industrial Park cannot be as low as eight cents, which is a fraction of the cheapest than the industrial electricity used in China.

What's more, Cao Mo will transmit electricity from the hydropower station to the industrial park, and will build additional transmission lines and substation and distribution facilities, but Cao Mo will agree on the power supply price at 12 cents per kilowatt-hour, which is even slightly lower than the domestic industrial electricity.

At the same time, the Fellician family power company's tenants in the Conero Lake Industrial Park will also use this as a standard.

Even so, the price of electricity that can be obtained in the Taihua Industrial Park is still 60% less than that of the industrial and mining enterprises on the outskirts of Draculamo.

In addition to the price of electricity, Cao Mo also proposed two additional conditions through Ojosan.

The first is the six-kilometer-long sand and gravel main road that runs from the Longde Highway to the main entrance of the industrial park along the south bank of the Lujiaochuan River, with two double-span bridges along the way, which Cao Mo asked for to be built by the Taihua Group at a cost of US$300,000.

The second is the construction cost of communication facilities from the town of Lunta to the industrial park, and the Oyo State Communications Company needs to bear the construction cost of 300,000 US dollars, which has to be borne by Taihua.

This money can't be saved, and you can't expect to settle in the company, from the management to the employees, everyone is equipped with a satellite phone!

Cao Mo's requirements are actually not high, everyone has to build an industrial park on the east bank of Lake Conero, whether it is the main road that is connected to it, or the communication construction costs that have to be borne by the two families, it should be shared by the two families in proportion.

According to the proportion, Cao Mo only accounts for 80,000 or 90,000 US dollars of Taihua, after all, the scale and area of the first phase of the Conailuo Lake Industrial Park is far smaller than that of the Taihua Industrial Park.

As for public facilities such as water plants and sewage treatment plants, Cao Mo wants to leave enough space for the new cement plant, which does not depend on Taihua's head, and the two will build their own ......

Of course, regardless of the risks hidden under the surface of the water after Taihua's involvement, Cao Mo has really saved $600,000 in supporting costs.

Otherwise, he wanted to play the secret crossing of Chencang on the shore of Lake Conero, so as to save the construction time of the new cement plant, and he would have to be responsible for all these supporting constructions.

Of course, in addition to being invited by Huang Hebin and Yao Haiming, Ojosan and Abacha also wanted to meet with Xie Sipeng and Yang Deshan to discuss how to start their own Conero Lake Industrial Park project.

Xie Sipeng and Yang Deshan had no intention or qualification to participate in the investment project of the Taihua Industrial Park, so in order to avoid embarrassment, they rushed to the private beach of the Lana Dere Hotel after Huang Hebin, Yao Haiming, and Zhou Han left, and met Cao Mo and them.

Talking about things in the sea breeze is very freehand.

In front of Xie Sipeng and Yang Deshan, Cao Mo did not directly say the construction plan of a new cement plant with an annual production capacity of 500,000 tons, but through Ojosan, he also made it clear that the Ibogu cement plant currently being built by Felician Building Materials Company in the mining area will move directly into the industrial park when the time is right.

Therefore, in the planning and design of Conero Lake Industrial Park, it is not only planned in the factory area to be close to the northeast side of Conero Lake and the south side of the estuary where the main road of the Lujiao River flows into Conero Lake, but also to set aside sufficient and upgradable margins in supporting construction such as water supply and power supply.

Of course, Taihua has shared the infrastructure investment of 600,000 US dollars, and the scale of the first phase of the Conero Lake Industrial Park is 300 acres, and it will take 3 million US dollars to invest in the case of leaving enough supporting margins for the new cement plant.

At present, Cao Mo has subscribed to $1 million, $200,000 for the Felician family, $300,000 for Abacha, $200,000 for Yang Deshan, and $300,000 for Xie Sipeng.

In fact, the branch of the United Bank of Oman in Draculamo did not intend to provide loans directly, and Cao Mo considered that when he opened a private trust account with the United Bank of Oman, if there was still a shortfall, his private trust account would be made up by borrowing money.

In addition to Xie Sipeng and Yang Deshan's clear investment intentions, they have also contacted several Chinese businessmen in the past few days, but they are all hesitant.

Investing in an industrial park is not about making quick money, but also about having considerable confidence in Kanem's economic development and political stability to make investment decisions.

At present, the industrial park uses low electricity prices to attract a number of enterprises to settle in, and then obtains stable income from land rent, tax sharing, supporting resource supply, financial and other consulting services, etc., and can even expand the second and third phases of the industrial park at a lower cost, but if the early investment is not sufficient, it is not as smooth as expected?

What if, two or three years later, there is another major upheaval in Kanem's political situation?

Others have too many worries and hesitate to be unwilling to directly benefit from the industrial park project with a long direct revenue cycle, and Cao Mo will not force it.

Now that he has an initial plan, he actually needs to pay only a million dollars to get the project off the ground, which is much stronger than he initially expected.
