"Dong Chengpeng, what do you think?"

Even if he didn't want to directly find Han Shaorong, who didn't trust him, to stab Dong Chengpeng's problem for a while, Liang Yuan still wanted to find out this matter with Guo Jian, stared at Guo Jian's eyes and asked.

"Ah......" Guo Jian looked at Liang Yuan with some doubts, he didn't know what he meant by asking this for a while, seeing that he looked like he should have understood, he subconsciously nodded along with Liang Yuan's meaning and said, "I don't like him as a person! I don't think Mr. Han should trust him so much......"

Guo Jian and Dong Chengpeng have no friendship.

Even if he was not replaced by Dong Chengpeng at this time, if he thought that Dong Chengpeng would take power in Draculamo, he would definitely suppress him at the first time, and he would not have any good feelings towards Dong Chengpeng.

And he is in Draculamo, except for Liang Yuan, who can take refuge, he is also isolated.

If it weren't for the fact that Liang Yuan couldn't offend Han Shaorong at this time, he would have wanted to simply leave Huamao and follow Liang Yuan directly - no matter how bad Liang Yuan is, he also personally holds 22% of the equity of Xihai Iron and Steel, and he is not a little person that no one can despise in Draculamo.

Liang Yuan didn't expect that Guo Jian said this in addition to being resentful, but more in accordance with his words, and really thought that Guo Jian really knew it.

You can't blame him for thinking crookedly.

Cao Mo obtained the actual control of the refinery and the Xingang plant through Volkov's investment, and Sturgeon's collusion with him was also revealed, Huang Hebin and his team were not immediately adjusted, and even Huang Hebin himself was extremely calm and could not see the panic, isn't this enough to show that Dong Chengpeng, who first proposed to use Huang Hebin, has a problem?

Liang Yuan had close contact with Guo Jian, knew that he was not a stupid person, and thought that it would be enough to get the words to the point, and said: "You should pay attention to keep an eye on Dong Chengpeng in the future, but don't do anything to startle the snake, Catelo Steel Plant can operate successfully, I will not treat your ...... badly"

"......" Hearing Liang Yuan's words of wooing, Guo Jian thought that Han Shaorong's arrangement made him extremely dissatisfied, and nodded excitedly, "Dong Chengpeng has something going on here, I will keep an eye on it for you, Mr. Liang!"

“...... Do you believe Ryan Fortis's nonsense, or do you believe in 20 million dollars of real money? Yes, I finally chose to cooperate with Cao Mo, but it was also after the shooting that I realized that even if I chose to back down, the ruthless Ryan Fortis would never let me go. I'm sure he must have told you in detail about the fatal flaws in the financial structure of Volkov's investments, do you think he will let me go? Of course, you have to believe his nonsense, and I can't help it, you can always ask my father to revoke my qualification to represent the Foster Family Foundation at Banco Nacional Ultramarino......"

Sturgeon hung up the phone, a little helpless and a little proud, and spread his hands at Cao Mo and Abacha, and said,

"The family business is really troublesome!"

Cao Mo laughed with Abacha and Brahm, and Avenna, who could see that she was suspicious, asked Sturgeon to stabilize her words.

If the equity relationship between Tianyue Investment and Volkov Investment is not completely straightened out and its financial structure is not completely stabilized, the subsequent development of Volkov Petrochemical Group and Conero Newport City will be seriously affected.

The refining and chemical business of the Volkov Petrochemical Group, if the procurement and reserve of raw materials cannot be borrowed from letters of credit, commercial bills and other tools, will directly occupy a large amount of valuable working capital, but not many financial institutions will be willing to cooperate with a company with a vague background and major flaws in its financial structure, unless it pays high additional costs.

However, the revelation of this level of equity relationship gave Les Fortis enough reasons to convince the Celestial family and the Evans Foundation executives that they were behind a series of events such as Trero.

Of course, weighing the pros and cons, they decided to make the partnership public.

In addition to the further development of Volkov Petrochemical Group and Conero New Port City, which need to be formally integrated and developed with Conero Lake Industrial Park and Huwan Processing Industrial Park, Banco Nacional Ultramarino is a financial instrument.

Banco Nacional Ultramarino is also the only financial instrument they have at their disposal at the moment.

Sturgeon's words with Avena Fee stabilized her, and she also hoped that when the Felicians, Sika, Blake, Tubman, and Rupert families financed the acquisition of a small stake in Banco Nacional Ultramarino from the Foster Family Foundation, Avenna would not jump out of the situation after being bewitched by Ryan Fortis.

Obviously, no matter how powerful Ryan Fortis's mouth is, it is not as convincing as Sturgeon who directly gave Avena 20 million dollars in the first place.

Seeing that Sturgeon had finished answering the phone, Brahm returned to the topic and said:

"The Evans Foundation holds $1.2 billion in debt to Deutsche Telecom, and Akari says he will not interfere with Deutsche Telekom's operations, but before he became senior vice president of Deutsche Telecom, he was the deputy manager of the Evans Foundation's Dracula more office – and now he is also strongly opposed to pulling a special line for Ne Win's cement production fund!"

West Africa United Cement Group was merged and reorganized, and the most important thing is to integrate the assets and resources of the two companies.

The Stanning family has grown into the largest cement giant in West Africa, with an annual production capacity of about 4 million tons of 6 million tons and nearly 4 million tons concentrated in Ne Win in the middle and lower reaches of the Ogun River.

The cement import ban was too ugly and offended too many people, especially at that time, cement importers in the Gulf of Guinea were concentrated in Draculamo, so that West African cement wanted to invest in the construction of its own thermal power plants in the future, which was constrained and hindered.

For a long time, in addition to enduring the high price of electricity supply, on the other hand, even if the Ne Win cement base has paid its own funds to upgrade the transmission line between the main network of Ne Win and Draculamo, power outages still occur frequently, seriously affecting the continuity of production and yield.

[Mimi Read] ()

Since the two cement groups have merged, Cao Mo's first consideration is that Conero Energy will directly supply electricity to the Ne Win Cement Base, but in addition to the long-term power supply agreement signed between the Ne Win Cement Base and Dracula Power that needs to be terminated in advance, it also involves the transmission grid from Dracula to Ne Win as an asset of Dracula Power Group.

At present, the city of Draculamo is still short of electricity, and Draculamo has been lifted from power

The power supply agreement for the Ne Win cement base will not only cause no loss, but will even allow the West African United Cement Group to receive a compensation and long-term line lease fee.

However, Emurahe, senior vice president of Draculamo Power, is firmly opposed, and the reason is also very good, that is, the speed of Conero's energy expansion is too terrifying, and he is no longer the little cutie who was no longer threatened and just attached to Deutsche to make a small fortune.

Emuraeu's rhetoric moved many of Draculamo's top executives.

Therefore, although Brahm's father mediated on their side, and although Draculamo Power Group also held a small stake in Conero Energy, the matter also dragged on for nearly a month without progress.

"In my opinion, regardless of whether Deutsche Electric agrees or not, Conero Energy will directly start the construction of a medium-sized thermal power plant on Ne Win's side, and the $100 million needed to build the power plant can be paid by United Cement first," said Abacha, "and Deutsche Electric's grid concession in Ne Win and the south region will expire in the last three years, and we will simply take down the power grid in Ne Win and the south area, and then build a transmission ......grid between Catro and Ne Win."

In recent years, Abacha has been much more pragmatic, but as a Yoruba, he is not born with particularly good patience, nor can he more deeply realize the importance of Taoguang and obscurity.

He was now angry that Dracula Power and those high-level officials didn't know how to lift, so he wanted to return the favor.

The Stanning family still has absolute control over the Ne Win region, just like the Sika and Felician families have in the position of the Ronta.

Abacha felt that Conero Energy could directly take over Ne Win's grid franchise and surround the existing power grid controlled by Dracula Power Group from the north, east, and south.

Cao Mo shook his head with a smile, and said to Brahm: "We can make a formal commitment, regardless of whether the concession expires or not, Conero Energy will not be involved in the existing transmission area of Deutsche Telecom, and this is not a condition that we will involve in this cooperation negotiation - you do more work, if Deutsche Telene insists on not regressing, then we will consider building a captive power plant in Ne Win immediately, and Deutsche Telene is willing to lease the line to us, then forget it......"

The situation of Draculamo Power is complicated, and if it cannot be completely co-opted, it must not be pushed to the side of the Evans Foundation, let alone that Brahm's father cannot be isolated within Draculamo Power.

After the merger of the West African United Cement Group, it did not even take measures such as limiting or reducing production, and the building materials market along the coast of the Gulf of Guinea has been affected by this news, and the price of finished cement has risen in response to the news, returning to more than 100 US dollars per ton.

In the short term, Cao Mo may even see the Naiwin production site as a regulator of total capacity.

Under the current situation of extreme market downturn, it is easy to raise the price of finished cement on the Gulf of Guinea coast to US$120 per tonne by appropriately reducing the scale of production on the Ne Win side, so that the total profit of the merged West African United Cement Group can easily reach the threshold of US$400 million.

This is the power of merger and the formation of a monopoly, and it is also the first goal of the merger of the two companies - the power plant and transmission line in the early stage are not necessary, and this goal is not difficult to achieve, so why be aggressive?

Of course, there is still a need to invest in the construction of dedicated lines and captive thermal power plants at the Ne Win site (Draculamo has a monopoly on the grid in the Ne Win region, but it cannot prevent large and medium-sized companies from building their own power plants), and even new cement plants are being built along the Gulf of Guinea.

The purpose of this is not only to penetrate into the building materials market in southwest and northwest Africa in the two wings in the later stage, but also to form a more dangerous moat and prevent new cement producer competitors from breaking into this market.

In this process, we will strive for the West African United Cement Group to be listed in Draculamo, but it would be better if it could be listed on any European stock market.

At present, Conero Energy is mainly the construction of cross-border power grids, building a large-scale thermal power generation base in Benin, and it is okay to avoid pushing Draculamo Power Group to the opposite side as much as possible.

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

Dong Chengpeng arrived at Draculamo on the first Sunday of December.

Although Dongsheng's previous investments in Conero Foods and Tianyue Industry were led by Dong Chengpeng, his understanding of the African market came from written reports.

In December, Xinhai and London, where the flight transited, were raging with a cold snap, but after arriving at Draculamo, he walked out of the plane, looked at the landing site paved with fine sand, and the heat wave was coming.

"Mr. Dong ......"

After Dong Chengpeng, Guo Jian was demoted from the office general manager to the vice president, and he felt unspeakably uncomfortable, but he still controlled his inner emotions and rushed to the airport to greet Dong Chengpeng with Huang Lingli, who had been at odds with him.

Seeing Dong Chengpeng walking into the pick-up hall, in order to show that he didn't care about the demotion, Guo Jian enthusiastically walked over and held Dong Chengpeng's hand, and said,

"Draculamo International Airport is still shabby, isn't it? This is still a newly built airport hall, when I first arrived in Draculamo in '02, the airport building was like a township grain depot, and my heart was half cold when I got off the plane. ”

Dong Chengpeng looked down on Guo Jian, a slave with three surnames, in his heart, but he also betrayed Dongsheng and defected to Han Shaorong, so he was not qualified to say anything about Guo Jian, and more importantly, he also needed to rely on Guo Jian before he was familiar with Draculamore's personnel.

Of course, Dong Chengpeng rejects Draculamo in his heart.

He used to be in Dongsheng, in charge of such a large-scale industrial investment fund, there were no special projects, basically he was determined, so many people looked at him.

After joining Huamao, he was sent to Draculamore, not to mention the difficult conditions, and the scale of investment he was responsible for was difficult to compare with Hexi Industrial Fund.

The main thing is that when he went to Draculamo, he didn't actually have any decision-making power, more to supervise existing investments.

Dong Chengpeng still wanted to do a good job here, and if he could be transferred back to China, he didn't have to suppress Guo Jian's idea, and said to Guo Jian politely at the moment:

"Yes, it's a little different from what I imagined, but it's quite bearable. ”

Although Huang Lingli looked disgusted, looking at Dong Chengpeng's tired face, Guo Jian still said thoughtfully: "I think that Mr. Dong has just arrived in Degu

Lamour, the body must be very tired. This afternoon's time is also very limited, we do not arrange formal reception activities - Mr. Dong, you will stay at the Lana Dere Hotel today, the hotel's private beach is very charming, and I believe that the energy will recover soon, and the formal work, we will make arrangements tomorrow...... Mr. Dong, what do you think of this arrangement?"

"No, while there is still time in the afternoon, let's go directly to Xinchenggang for a walk. Mr. Han is very concerned about the situation here, I have to have a preliminary understanding first, and talk to Mr. Han on the phone in the evening," Dong Chengpeng said, "Did you help me make an appointment with Huang Hebin?"

"I'm about tomorrow, of course, it's no problem to call directly to change the time now, Huang Hebin usually doesn't leave Xingang City......" Guo Jian said without saying anything.

In order to avoid panic or other thoughts among the members of the management, Huang Hebin has recently publicly approached Cao Mo and Sturgeon - although this does not indicate that Huang Hebin had any problems in the first place, and it is more likely to be a pragmatic choice to face reality at the moment, Hua Mao is still embarrassed to be stacked there.

Guo Jian was afraid of being scolded, so he didn't dare to report this matter directly to Han Shaorong, so he wanted to wait for Dong Chengpeng to come over.

"Okay, let's go directly to Xingang City!" Dong Chengpeng cheered up and said, "Don't arrange any hotel for me, I'll live directly in the staff dormitory tonight, and there will be more people - what's the point of staying in a hotel alone?"

“...... Okay!" Guo Jian naturally listened to Dong Chengpeng's arrangement, walked to the parking lot and got into the car, and then called Huang Hebin directly.

Dong Chengpeng came on behalf of Huamao, of course Huang Hebin would not refuse to meet, but said that things were busy in the afternoon, and he happened to have something to talk to Dong Chengpeng, so he asked Guo Jian to take Dong Chengpeng directly to the petrochemical group to meet.

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

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

The West Bank is lined with high-rise buildings and high-end hotels along Central Street, but behind the high-rise buildings is a slum with sewage flows, often stretching for several kilometres.

From Draculamo Harbor to the northwest along the newly built Corniche, the buildings are sparse and less visually striking, until a modern petroleum refining plant stands out in front of you, and the Vulkov International Tower stands out in a large cluster of low-rise buildings.

In order to welcome, Huang Hebin only took two vice presidents to welcome the arrival of Dong Chengpeng and others under the group's office building, took the factory's own vehicle, went around the main equipment area, and returned directly to the office building after introducing the trial production to Dong Chengpeng.

"You said you happened to have something to talk to me about?" Dong Chengpeng sat down in the small conference room and asked.

"I saw Cao Mo yesterday, even if it is an unofficial notice, I think Tianyue's side may push forward this matter soon. Since Huamao has changed the chairman to serve as the representative of the board of directors, it is necessary for me to inform you in time," Huang Hebin said, "The trial production situation is relatively good, but the annual refining capacity here is less than one million tons, which is far from filling the gap of fuel oil and chemical raw materials in the Gulf of Guinea - Cao Mo means that the Volkov Petrochemical Group is now going to start building a refining base with an annual output of one million tons in Cotonou, Benin, with a total investment of about 400 million US dollars, and according to the proportion, Huamao should inject an additional 60 million US dollars......

"......" Dong Chengpeng opened his mouth, and only asked after a while, "On the south shore of the south of Conero Lake, a large amount of vacant land is reserved for the follow-up construction of the oil group, even if the production capacity is expanded, in order to make better use of the public facilities that have been built, save the scale of investment, in order to facilitate the better management of the operation team, which is not yet very mature, how can the next phase of the project be built directly in Benin? Could it be that there is a big gap in the Gulf of Guinea market, and the gap in Kanem has already been filled, or the refined fuel oil? Is it more troublesome to transport chemical raw materials from the port of Draculamo than the port of Cotonou?"

Cao Mo's original words are that eggs can't be put in one basket, and I think this is very reasonable. Huang Hebin said.

"That's Tianyue's egg!" Seeing Huang Hebin's undisguised favoritism, Guo Jian was so anxious that the blue tendons on his forehead were exposed, and said, "Huamao also has a 25% stake in Xingang City - even if it is to promote the development of Xingang City, there is no reason for the follow-up projects of the petrochemical group to be put elsewhere, unless the market in Kanem is saturated!"

"I just conveyed Cao Mo's meaning, if you have any opinions, you can ask Cao Mo to mention ...... face-to-face" Huang Hebin said nonchalantly.

"......" Dong Chengpeng gasped, and he figured out Huang Hebin's position.

three family slaves!

They don't know what Cao Mo's intentions are, so soon to start the construction of a new refinery immediately, and to build it in Benin, but after losing the controlling stake and the loss of checks and balances, Huamao's options for confronting Cao Mo are very limited.

After four years before and after, the Vorkov Petrochemical Group was finally built, and now the trial production situation is very good, and the profit expectation is also very optimistic, will Han Shaorong now be willing to ask the major shareholder to repurchase the 15% stake held by Huamao with an additional little pitiful interest on the capital contribution?

If they don't resell their shares to major shareholders and don't inject additional capital, they will only be able to watch their shares in the petrochemical group be diluted cheaply.

And if it is an additional capital injection, Cao Mo has been playing this method, delaying the profit cycle of Volkov Petrochemical Group without limit, and Huamao is actually completely handing over the initiative and playing a dangerous snowball game of production capacity.

Once the situation changes, Huamao's investment in Africa will also suffer heavy losses.

Cao Mo proposed that Volkov Petrochemical should acquire these utilities and carry out subsequent expansions to provide corresponding services for other enterprises in Newport City. That's about a hundred million dollars in total—"

To say that it was only speculation that Cao Mo intended to delay the profit expectations of the Vulkov Petrochemical Group indefinitely, it can now be said to be true......

Although Huamao also holds a 25% stake in Newport City, which is even higher than that of Folkov Petrochemical Group, Newport City is a dispensable project at all.

If Cao Mo proposes that investors make additional capital injections into Xingang stocks, Huamao can use the veto power or ask other investors who vote in favor to buy the shares held by Huamao......
