Chapter 279: My Mother, the Apocalypse Group is so rich [Second Update]
This document was printed out by Liu Wenjun, and the contents of it were sent by a person named Luo Bafei, who claimed to be the leader of Niue's largest party, and planned to sell Niue's sovereignty in a package.
"This is the map and information of Niue, the location is good, but the place is a bit big, we are a bit extravagant to build a research institute, and another one, the price will definitely not be low" Liu Wenjun introduced on the side, and handed the information he was looking for to Xu Ping'an by the way.
"You're right, the place is indeed a bit big, in my plan to have an area of more than ten square kilometers, Niue more than 200 square kilometers, we used to build a research institute is really a bit wasteful"
"However, you can set up two or three institutes and relocate all the research projects that are a little bit dangerous, so that it doesn't look empty."
"You can contact him first, see what the other side means, and wait for me to confirm his identity before entering the actual negotiations" Xu Ping'an immediately made a decision.
Liu Wenjun left, Xu Ping'an began to think about it, thought for a while, used a satellite phone to make a call to Buck, hung up the phone after a few minutes, and Buck began to arrange for people to go to New Zealand to investigate.
"Xingling, how is the weather in the South Pacific recently?" Xu Ping'an asked in his mind.
"This month is calm, and there will be several small typhoons next month," Xing Ling said directly, and after speaking, a map of the South Pacific Ocean appeared in Xu Ping'an's mind, showing the location and route of the typhoon.
"Can you increase the power?" said Xu Ping'an with a smile.
"Are they all enlarged?" the Star Spirit asked.
"You don't need to increase it all, you just need to sweep this line," Xu Ping'an said, and a line appeared on the map in his mind, crossing the Pacific countries.
"Next month you'll do what you want," the star spirit said silently.
Xu Ping'an is face smiled, in such extreme weather, it is not so easy to see how you ask for a high price, and if you want to transfer my money.
New Zealand, Wellington, Robafi and a few henchmen were discussing this matter, ran in the United States for a month, contacted a lot of wealthy people and consortium families, but the result was very disappointed, not interested, and clearly rejected Robafe.
What is the South Pacific like, these people know that after buying a small island, they can't live at all, where extreme weather is frequent, coupled with the fact that the submarine volcano is in an active period, maybe a tsunami will come to you at any time, and you will be able to invest all of it.
And Luo Bafei's asking price is not low, one mouth is 10 billion dollars, and it also requires cash, which cannot be paid in installments, and there are many additional conditions, just kidding, the money is not blown by the wind, and it will definitely not be thrown away in vain.
The United States went directly to Europe without hope, and as a result, got the same result, the same rich people are willing to buy, they are not stupid, and now they know what is going on over there, even if the purchased islands are sovereign.
Ten billion dollars, investing so much that there will be no return on a penny in the next few decades, a fool will invest.
For the rich, the attraction of your island is really not big, anyway, the rich naturally enjoy a lot of privileges, and this price will not be accepted in any case.
When he returned to New Zealand in discouragement, he received news that the Apocalypse Group planned to buy a small island to build an oceanographic research institute, and was currently making exploratory contacts with several countries.
Luo Bafei immediately came to the spirit, usually listened to the name of the Apocalypse Group, and immediately arranged for someone to investigate, after reading the information of the Apocalypse Group, Luo Bafei's face was full of shock, my mother, the Apocalypse Group is so rich.
Tianchao Construction Bank, Citibank of the United States, Deutsche Bank of Germany, Banque de France of France, Barclays Bank of the United Kingdom, Swiss Commonwealth Bank, VP Bank of Lottotenstein, and several other major international banks have given Tianqi Group an S rating.
Roba Faye is well aware of the difficulty of obtaining an S rating from these banks, which is even higher than in some countries, and in the case of Barclays, for example, in order to have an S rating, you must have no less than 5 billion euros in deposits with Barclays, which is a hard standard.
The standards of other banks are not very clear, but you also know that you cannot get such a high rating without a large amount of money deposited and high profitability.
This is a very good opportunity, after Luo Bafei had a meeting with several descendants, he immediately contacted Liu Wenjun, and then it depends on Liu Wenjun's reply, if the Apocalypse Group is interested, it will negotiate slowly at the quoted price, if it is not interested, it can only find another way.
Early this morning, Xu Ping'an got up early and started running on the golf course of the resort hotel.
After breakfast, I went back to the room to wash up and change my clothes, and drove directly to the construction site, Bulsen and the high-level people were already waiting at the gate of the construction site, Xu Ping'an shook hands with everyone after getting out of the car, and began to inspect with a helmet on his head.
Along the way, we have a detailed understanding of the progress of each project, the progress of equipment installation, I am very satisfied with the turn, all aspects of progress are carried out in strict accordance with the drawings, if the weather is strong, it can be completely completed in more than a month.
If the weather is bad, the construction period will need to be delayed, but there is still a lot of rain here, and there is no way to do it in this weather.
After the inspection, we went to the temporary office area, a temporary prefabricated house, two floors, and a conference room on the second floor, where Xu Ping'an talked with Bulsen and others.
"What else does need the support of the headquarters at present," Xu Ping'an said as he looked at everyone.
"Boss, at present, everything is going according to plan, what we need from the headquarters is funds and policies, we must store raw materials, the international coal price is not high, if the tariff is included, it will increase a lot, I hope the headquarters can coordinate" Bulsen looked at Xu Ping'an and said.
"How much do you plan to purchase in the first batch," Xu Ping'an asked.
"In the first batch, we plan to purchase 200,000 tonnes of coal," Bulson said directly.
"I will talk to the FZ government about this, there was this when the agreement was signed, it is not a big problem, when I have good news, the cost control must be strict, Aoki, watch you perform" Xu Ping'an said with a smile.
"Hey, please rest assured, I will firmly control the cost" Hitomi Aoki stood up and said, Xu Ping'an nodded with satisfaction, and waved his hand to let Hitomi Aoki sit down.
"How much money do you need here," Xu Ping'an asked as he looked at Bulson.
"Boss, I let the finance calculate, there are still 200 million funds on the books, these 200 million funds are only enough to pay for the construction costs of the factory and living areas, and the funds for the later greening and decoration are not enough, plus we have to purchase raw materials, and we need 500 million funds to maintain normal operation" Buerson explained the amount quoted.
"List a detailed report on the use of funds and submit it to the headquarters finance, and I will notify the financial allocation" Xu Ping'an immediately made a decision.
"Thank you, boss," Bulson said directly.
It's really fun to be in the Apocalypse Group, much more comfortable than in Kangneng, there is no board of directors to draw funds and constraints, you can freely invest funds to carry out the plan, is there anything more pleasant than this, in Bulson's opinion, no.
After discussing the follow-up plan with everyone, Xu Ping'an left the factory by car and returned to the hotel, and met Liu Shuheng's secretary Huo Qiang in the lobby.
The place and time are determined by Liu Shu, Xu Ping'an will go to the appointment on time when the time comes, and nodded to Liu Wenjun, Liu Wenjun gave Huo Qiang a business card of Xu Ping'an, Xu Ping'an shook hands with Huo Qiang and separated directly.
The next day, when it was almost noon, Huo Qiang drove a car over, responsible for guiding the way, Xu Ping'an only took Xu Zhengyang into Huo Qiang's car, the car went straight to the suburbs, and stopped at a private restaurant by the river more than an hour later.
Xiao Jianguo and Liu Shuheng have arrived, Xu Ping'an arrived at the three of them to greet each other before they sat down, Huo Qiang and Xu Zhengyang went downstairs to eat by themselves, Xu Ping'an, Xiao Jianguo, and Liu Shuheng talked upstairs.
"I've heard Mr. Xu's name for a long time, but I found out when I saw him today, Xu is always really young, and when I see Mr. Xu, I really feel old," Xiao Jianguo said with a smile.
"The high-ranking officials are too polite to the mayor, I'm just a reckless young man, call me safe," Xu Ping'an said with a smile.
"Okay, let's call you safe when we're older" Xiao Jianguo said with a smile, Xu Ping'an also smiled, raised the teacup and toasted the two of them.
"Ping An, the project of Tianqi Group has settled in FZ, is there anything we need to solve?" Liu Shuheng said with a smile.
"Mayor, there is really something to trouble the two of you," Xu Ping'an said directly.
"You said directly, as long as we can do it, we will definitely help the company solve its worries," Liu Shuheng said directly.
"Senior official, mayor, it's not a big problem, the factory has begun to follow the equipment, when the equipment is installed, we need to start recruiting, purchasing raw materials, and the raw materials we need need to be purchased from abroad, so I hope the two of you can give support in terms of tariffs" Xu Ping'an directly threw out the question.
"What is the raw material" Liu Shuheng is really curious about this.
"Coal" Xu Ping'an said directly, Xiao Jianguo and Liu Shuheng were stunned, the raw material turned out to be coal.
"Ping An, we talked to Bulson, this factory is a solar factory, can carbon be used as solar panels" Liu Shuheng did not understand this point.
"Mayor, do you know the press conference held by Professor Neerlen of the Apocalypse Institute in Dresden, Germany?" Xu Ping'an looked at the two and said.
"I know this, can you already reduce the cost" Xiao Jianguo is very surprised, very understanding the value of carbon crystal solar panels, once the cost can really be reduced, the photovoltaic market decision is a big earthquake.
"Not yet, but we have found a way, Germany, the Celestial Empire, more than 100 top researchers are working in this direction, and the research institutes within the Apocalypse Group can realize data exchange."
"The two sides collided very strongly, the general direction is determined, and the experiment is currently in full swing, and the news I got is that it is very likely to break through within half a year, and once the experiment is passed, it can be produced immediately."
"If the factory construction is completed, the staff training is in place, and the research has not yet made a breakthrough, we will first produce monocrystalline silicon products, with our technology, the product effect is definitely far beyond the same kind, and we don't worry about no market," Xu Ping'an explained.
