Chapter 348: The Trap
Thanks to the Supreme League drunkyong and the new big league skeleton abs for their generosity, Dazhang is waiting...... )
"You really should have gone with me, but it's cool, it's just that you brought a little less cash, and you didn't fully display your momentum......" Cao Mo returned to the lakeside house, sat on the terrace and drank tea, laughing with Abacha, Yang Deshan, Xie Sipeng and others who stayed here and waited for news.
"If we don't go over, it seems that you can take care of the overall situation and tolerate concessions while you are angry," Yang Deshan laughed, "We all ran over, if we couldn't hold back our laughter, wouldn't they see through all this as a trap we set? Otherwise, do you think we don't want to see the excitement?"
“......”
Cao Mo waved his hand and said,
"I am not a prophet of how the economic situation will develop in the future, and I cannot guarantee that the Taihua Group, Huamao and Volkov Investment will join forces, and there is the support of the Draculamo Municipal Committee and the Port Group, and it will definitely not be able to do Conero Marina New City, but it is definitely impossible to squeeze their cash flow as much as possible......"
Draculamo wants to take so much land directly from Longta, even if he has to pay compensation for the land expropriated from the tribal chieftains who directly control these lands, he will inevitably have to give some compensation to the Longta area.
However, when it comes to compensation, there are different ways and options:
For example, a certain percentage of the tax share is also a form of compensation, for example, about a total price is paid over a number of years, and even a considerable area from the rest of Draculamo is incorporated into the Ronta......
If the two sides negotiate according to the rhythm of Lu Jianchao, Han Shaorong and the Draculamo City Committee, then under the interference of all parties, it will inevitably tilt in their favor - this is not what Cao Mo wants to see.
Cao Mo made this scene today, with "strong anger", and made the method of compensation and the bottom line clear in public, not giving Lu Jianchao and Han Shaorong the slightest chance to bargain.
Whether it is invested by Taihua Group, Taihua Industrial Park, or Draculamo City Hall, it is necessary to come up with these two total cash compensations at one time, which by no means harsh amounts, will enter the next round of negotiations.
Even if the total compensation price is the same, the pressure on cash flow is not at all the same as a lump sum payment versus a number of years.
Abacha, Yang Deshan, Xie Sipeng and others were relieved when they heard Cao Mo say that there was a big fuss about the new Taihua Casino Hotel.
Although Cao Mo had a self-defeating plan to build a copper smelter first, when the mining scale of the Wusan River copper-gold project was still very limited, the construction of a copper smelter on the east bank of Lake Conero would actually not only increase internal operating costs, but also squeeze out their newly abundant cash flow.
Now that this hot hand is confirmed, Taihua has to take it if he doesn't take it, and they will be relieved.
Even if Taihua, with the support of many forces, joins forces with Huamao and Volkov to invest, it is still very likely that Conero Lake Coastal New City will profit from it, but Yang Deshan and Xie Sipeng are different from Zhou Han and do not have a strong motive to kill the Lu family.
The new city of Conero Marina is really about to be built, and it will be beneficial to the north shore, not to mention that a large amount of cash can be directly extorted now:
After receiving cash compensation, the Rontar City Hall will be able to carry out local infrastructure construction on a larger scale, and if Conero Energy can get a deposit of 50 million US dollars this time, it can directly start the second phase of the Ronta natural gas power plant project, which is very important for the new development of Conero Energy.
With these two compensations, no matter what the South Bank will eventually turn out to become, their interests on their side will be preserved, and they will not be busy in vain.
"There are too many places where Longta needs to spend money, and even if you can get 70 or 80 million US dollars at a time this time, you can't actually stand up to it for long," Cao Mo said to Abacha, "I suggest that Longta continue to live a hard life, first concentrate this capital into an investment platform, part of it will be used to promote the infrastructure construction and resource development of Longta, and part of it will be directly adjacent to the Taihua Industrial Park and then set up a park focusing on processing and manufacturing......
Since the time of the military junta, Kanem has had a large number of state-owned enterprises of various forms, but the management is chaotic, corruption is rampant, and there is a lack of advanced management experience and technology, and the vast majority of Kanem's state-owned enterprises are in very bad condition.
At the same time, because of the extremely complicated creditor's rights relationship formed with European and American financial institutions due to long-term loans, the management of a considerable number of enterprises has actually been occupied by the agents of European and American financial institutions.
One of the most typical is the Dracula Power Supply Group.
Even so, Cao Mo suggested that Abacha persuade the members of the Lonta Municipal Council to agree to use the compensation to form a local state-owned investment platform to promote local infrastructure and resource development.
The city hall does not have much experience in operation, and a new processing park is being built on the north side of the Taihua Industrial Park, and Yang Deshan can send a management team to take over the operation affairs.
It's much better than taking millions of dollars from each department at the city hall and then running out at some point.
Cao Mo is sometimes very high-profile in his work, but in fact, he pays attention to proportion.
In order to avoid unnecessary contradictions, the development and construction of the Conero Lake Industrial Park has been settled in all new enterprises invested by Chinese businessmen, and there is no mention that they will use the much better public service facilities such as water, electricity and communication to attract local enterprises in Draculamo.
Conero Lake Industrial Park is mainly dominated by Chinese capital, in this place where national sentiment is more intense and easy to be instigated by people with intentions, some things are more sensitive, but the processing park led by the Longta local construction and Draculamo originally had a direct competitive relationship, and it is not afraid of inducing ethnic conflicts.
In this way, it can be regarded as a partial implementation of the Huwan New Industrial City plan, which will not only allow the local government of Lonta and the state government of Oyo to save some face, but also use it to divert the resources of the new city of Conero Marina, forcing them to find no excuse to delay the pace of construction.
............
............
After Cao Mo left, it was impossible for Lu Jianchao to be
The casino was closed, and the gamblers who didn't see much excitement were expelled at will, so they could only leave the hall with hatred and go to the VIP room on the sixth floor to sit down.
At this time, the moonlight and silver glow are sprinkled on the undulating surface of Conero Lake, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the outline of a series of factories such as Conero cement on the northeast shore, and the light belt is particularly prominent in a pure night - looking at all this, Lu Jianchao and the others involuntarily showed a little hideous on their faces.
Since Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao invited Cao Fangming to participate in the project investment on the south shore of Conero Lake, no matter how insignificant his capital contribution may be, but if something like this happened tonight, they could not be excluded.
Cao Li walked into the VIP room on the sixth floor with her father, and sat on the sofa still in a daze.
Cao Mo has such an arrogant attitude in front of characters like Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao, but Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao have nothing to do with Cao Mo?
And in the scene in the hall downstairs, Cao Li sounded like Cao Mo had some investment project, and was disturbed by Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao, so Cao Mo specially ran over to smash the field, and even pulled the police over to give him a platform?
Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao boasted about their billions of investments in the local government, but they failed to solve the local relationship, but Cao Mo notified them in black and white?
Cao Li thinks this world is too crazy?
Grandma said that Cao Mo is developing well in Africa, where is this just good?
However, how "good" it is, Cao Li is still completely confused.
Although Cao Mo has been working in Africa for more than six years, Cao Mo was under the age of 20 when he came to work in Africa, how did he become a role that Han Shaorong and Lu Jiancheng couldn't help but do?
Cao Li noticed at this time that Han Shaorong's eyes were glancing towards her, and there seemed to be a trace of gentle concern in his eyes.
Han Shaorong not only has the aura of status and wealth blessing, but he is over fifty years old, and he has an elegant and mature bearing that Zhang Jin never has, which is indeed fascinating.
Cao Li didn't deny that she had been a little fascinated in the past few days, but at this moment, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, which made her shudder.
Not only Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao, but looking at the expressions of Lu Yan, Liang Yuan, Yan Zhicheng, Huang Hebin, Yao Haiming, Yan Ming, Guo Jian and others, Cao Li can be sure that they not only knew Cao Mo for a long time, but even had a competitive relationship with Cao Mo or a more sharply opposed holiday, but they did not show a trace in front of them, and even before Cao Mo walked into the casino hall, she thought that in addition to Chen Rong's relationship, Cao Mo and Han Shaorong, Lu Jianchao and others were in a world that was completely incompatible.
Yes, in her desperate house, the Lu family and Han Shaorong really pulled her family, but their scheming is not simple!
Han Shaorong teased himself, did he also have some kind of purpose?
Cao Li would not be so ignorant as to think that Han Shaorong had any feelings for her, but she always thought that she was young and beautiful......
Cao Li sat silently on the sofa, in a bad mood.
At this time, no one cared about what she was thinking, Lu Yan gritted her teeth, and her anger was held in her chest but she couldn't attack.
It took a while for Lu Jianchao to suppress the anger in his heart, calmly look at everything that happened today, and said to Han Shaorong with a frown: "Mr. Han, you should realize that Cao Mo is a difficult opponent now, right?"
Han Shaorong didn't have the heart to pay attention to what caused Cao Li's trance, and he also frowned and said: "Yes, he pretended to be stupid, and the conditions he proposed were actually too much for the cash in Taihua Industrial Park, but it didn't look too harsh." If we fail to meet his conditions and the two sides are deadlocked, the various authorities in Longta and Oyo do not need him to instigate them behind their backs, and they will keep running to the door and turn this side upside down!"
With Lu Jianchao and Han Shaorong here, even if his brain was so angry that his brain was pounding, it was not Lu Yan's turn to point at the sky and scold the earth, he held back his temper, and pondered the words of Uncle Han Shaorong, and he could understand what made Uncle feel tricky.
The city of Draculamo and the port group have limited funds at their disposal, and they will be responsible for the construction of the rapid coastal highway and feeder railway in the future, which has exceeded their expectations, and their plan is mainly to join forces with Vorkov Investment to inject three to four hundred million dollars into the Thai-Chinese Industrial Park Development Co., Ltd. to start the development and construction of the Cornello Coastal New City.
Because the new Taihua Casino Hotel, the new Taihua Oil Refinery and the former Taihua Industrial Park are all absolutely controlled by the Lu family and the Taihua Group, it is also agreed that the Lu family and the Taihua Group will bear half of the capital injection responsibility for the additional capital injection into the Taihua Industrial Park, and finally ensure that the controlling stake of the Taihua Industrial Park is in their hands.
Cao Mo is now going to take $120 million or more in cash directly from them as a guarantee for land compensation and power construction, and the Dracula City Hall and the port group cannot get this money, so the Taihua Industrial Park will have to bear it.
That's a bit of a pressure.
"You sit down, don't walk around, it's useless to have a temper at this time. Lu Jianchao saw that Lu Yan was still gritting his teeth and walking around in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, there was too much unwillingness and temper in his heart, and he was a little impatient to ask him to sit down.
“......”
Lu Yan was still so angry at this time that his heart ached, but he could also realize that Cao Mo's troubles were simply to block their space for negotiation - Taihua Industrial Park delayed or ignored it, and even proposed other ways to compensate, all of which were labeled as troublemakers by Cao Mo.
At that time, not only will the attitude of Draculamo, local officials and parliamentarians in Ogun and the federal government of Kanem turn against them, but more importantly, it will be hellish if the hateful Longta region does not stir up the chickens and dogs here.
At that time, even if there are shares of the Oppenheimer family in the new Taihua casino hotel and the new Taihua oil refinery, even if Niz Oppenheimer comes forward to make peace, it will not be easy.
In the eyes of the Longta region, their good Huwan Industrial New City project is here to join forces to stir up the yellow, and they also use their power to oppress people, and they want to take away the area on the south shore of Conero Lake from their hands.
The port area on the south bank of Lake Conero is part of Draculamo Port, but the entire Thai-Chinese Industrial Park, including the refinery, is still under the jurisdiction of the Lung Ta area.
Nsange was also invited to the sixth-floor VIP room, but after receiving a call from his father, Niz Oppenheimer, he left early.
NSanger wasn't a great character, but Niz Oppenheimer temporarily called him away
and, in fact, to put pressure on them......
Thinking of this, Lu Yan felt a slight chill in his back bones.
Taihua is not like Huamao, the cash flow is so abundant, the promised $150 million in capital contribution has already made his father and uncle have a headache for fundraising, and now if he wants to increase the proportion of the apportionment, his Lu family and Taihua will have to bear at least 60 million US dollars more in capital contributions, and the pressure will be even greater.
In the past, even if they officially launched the development and construction of Conero Marina New Town, they could adjust the pace of capital investment and the progress of development and construction according to the actual situation.
The investment of 150 million US dollars can be invested in two or three years if the situation is good, and it can be invested in five or six years or even longer if the situation is bad.
Well, now that they haven't officially started construction, they have to hand over so much cash first, even if Taihua wants to delay the pace and relieve the pressure on funds, are Niz Oppenheimer and Han Shaorong willing to lock so much money here in vain?
Of course, after learning that Cao Mo intended to start the construction plan of Huwan Industrial New City, it was his family who took the initiative to find Han Shaorong;
Han Shaorong can agree to increase the investment according to the proportion, it is enough to be righteous, if you want him to contribute more, does the Lu family need to show more sincerity?
Lu Yan no longer has the simplicity and impulsiveness of his early years, he looked at Han Shaorong who was playing with a lighter in his hand, his expression was gloomy, so that people couldn't understand what he was thinking, but he believed that Han Shaorong was definitely not a person who did good deeds without leaving a name.
"Is it possible that Cao Mo threw out the so-called Huwan Industrial New City plan at the beginning, and it was a bait at all?" Yan Chicheng sat on the side, as if he had been thinking about it secretly for a long time, and then he couldn't help but ask in a hoarse voice.
"Why do you say that?" Hearing this, Lu Jianchao was suddenly startled in his heart, staring at Yan Zhicheng and asking.
"I've always felt that this time there was a bit of a deliberate high-profile. Of course, it may be that I am cranky, but I just can't forget the situation when the Jidam family fell into the trap two years ago. Yan Zhicheng said in a hoarse voice.
Yan Zhicheng's tone made Lu Jianchao's scalp tingle, as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning!
Lu Jianchao looked at the others, Han Shaorong's contact with Cao Mo was actually very limited, he didn't care much about Yan Zhicheng's words, but looking at Liang Yuan, Huang Hebin, Yao Haiming, and even Guo Jian, they all frowned, obviously they didn't dare to deny such a possibility.
Lu Jianchao was apprehensive, but thinking about the Conero Binhai New Area project, even if Taihua's capital chain will be quite tight, the project is a good project, and there is nothing wrong with it......
............
............
"What are you thinking?"
Cao Mo talked to Cheng Xi for a while, walked to the terrace, and saw Zhou Han standing in front of the railing with some worry, staring at the lake in the distance, and walked over to ask.
"I'm wondering if Yan Zhicheng will pierce the first layer of window paper today, will it be too hasty, and it won't actually achieve the effect we need?" Zhou Han said.
"I'm going to cut off the retreat of these turtle grandchildren today, they have to do it if they don't do it in Conero Coastal New Town, but what will happen next, let's just wait and see, what do you want to do so much?"
"......" Zhou Han glanced at Cao Mo.
Cao Mo hugged Zhou Han from behind, pressed her chin on her shoulder, and said:
"With Han Shaorong's strength and self-confidence, if he wants to deal with me, the Lu family is not a tool he has to borrow, and Niz Oppenheimer and the capital lurking behind him are not vegetarians. You asked Yan Zhicheng to startle the snake, the fundamental purpose is to attract the attention of the Lu family to us, so that they can ignore the dangers around them, in principle, this is not wrong - of course, whether it can actually have a good effect, we can only do our best and obey the destiny of heaven, and you don't have the luxury of expecting that everything will go according to your plan. If you think too much, it's going to be hard......"
"Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao dragged your uncle's family in so hard, can you really ignore it?" asked Zhou Han.
"I said, it's okay for everyone to be fine, their path is their own choice, what do I care about them?" Cao Mo said indifferently, "Anyway, I'm just a careful person, if anyone doesn't let me succeed, I will always remember ......"
Zhou Han was about to put Cao Mo into her denim shorts to grab the strange hand, scolded him a few words, and saw a black shadow in the distance walking through the low fence wall to this side, so he separated from Cao Mo, and after a while, he saw Xie Sipeng hurriedly walking over here.
"What's wrong?" Cao Mo asked as he tapped the low gate with an inner buckle, allowing Xie Sipeng to walk to the terrace.
"I just received a call from Xu Sheng, and the heavy rain in Mangba in the past few days has caused several collapses in the mountains of the upper reaches of the Disukin River Valley, but no one has paid attention to the collapse of the earthworks blocking the river channel, and a large amount of river water is still accumulating upstream - today the upstream river water has washed away the blocked river channel......," Xie said.
Hearing Xie Sipeng say this, Cao Mo couldn't help but change color slightly.
The collapse of the mountains on both sides of the river has blocked the river channel, and it is very easy to accumulate rainwater in the upstream and form a dammed lake in the upstream, and once the dammed lake bursts, it will form a flood peak downstream, which is very likely to cause unimaginable major disasters.
The shallow surface layer of the upper reaches of the Disujin River is rich in rock gold grains, and it is also the most important gold industry in the Mangba region, which has accumulated a large amount of placer gold in the lower river valley for thousands of years.
Xie Sipeng and Xu Sheng switched to Akwa two years ago, and they were unable to contract rock gold mines, so they contracted tens of thousands of acres of river beach land in the lower valley of the Disujin River from the hands of local tribal chiefs, and then divided them into small pieces of thirty or fifty acres, and subcontracted them to gold prospectors who were attracted by the dream of making a fortune, and they collected management fees from them.
During the Spring Festival, Xie Sipeng joined Yibogu Mining and transferred all the business of the Disougin Valley to Xu Sheng and others.
However, this time it has nothing to do with whether Xie Sipeng's personal investment has been lost.
Even if he personally lost two or three million US dollars, he definitely didn't have to run over in the middle of the night to alarm Cao Mo, he was actually a gold digger who entered the Disujin River Valley to mine gold placers, and for convenience, in addition to the work site, most of them even stationed their camps directly on the lowlands of the river beach.
If we don't take precautions this time, we are likely to have unimaginable casualties......
