Chapter 572: Combined Force Hunting Team?
"Star International" wants to take advantage of the entanglement between the Botswana government and De Beers in the distribution of interests to enter the diamond mining industry in Botswana. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
But it also means a direct war with De Beers, albeit only on a commercial level for the time being, but it must be fully prepared.
Zhang Nan now has enough funds to cope with the huge amount of upfront capital investment in the first one or two years, and he is not worried about the breakage of the capital chain at all; with the help of the processing and sales network and ambition of the Indians, coupled with the high-end diamond brand and processing based in New York, he can establish his own diamond sales empire in the fastest time.
Another point is also very important: I don't worry about De Beers fighting a price war at all, even if the war is the most miserable, it is impossible for Zhang Nan to lose both.
Moreover, "Xingchen International" is an American company that will pay taxes to the US government, and even if Zhang Nan is a Chinese in the US market, he has an advantage over De Beers, which is headquartered in South Africa.
As for Europe, the Jews are the most interested, and the ambitions of the Indians are greatly reduced, so Zhang Nan does not need to panic about Beers's commercial suppression.
As for the price war, can Zhang Nan lose $10 billion and crush you a South African, can De Beers afford it?
Although it has a big family, it has a big business, but it is 10 billion ...... It's dead.
If you come to the dark, although it doesn't sound good to say, but the fact is that it will be the U.S. government that will stand behind the "Star International", and they are afraid of each other!
Moreover, the "joint forces" are rapidly expanding their forces, and there are seven or eight hundred contractors from the United States and Israel, and more than 500 "security guards" were recruited from China at the end of last year.
Reasonable business competition doesn't matter, come to the yin?
Thomas Gaguan Boss can blow up De Beers' headquarters in South Africa!
As for the safety of African mines, according to Thomas's words: a large mine only needs 200 core ore protection teams, and the world's most elite mercenaries of 500 people will definitely not be able to defeat it.
As for the local armies in Africa, this figure can be multiplied by a factor of ten.
Tribal warriors?
Forget it, come and kill as much as you want!
Just like this Brown said to Zhang Nan: "The embryos of the combined forces of the mine protection team are waiting for armed personnel to make trouble every day, and they are about to have problems." ”
Zhang Nan said with a smile: "Even if we want to tear our faces, it won't be now, the tribal chiefs and elders are our first line of defense, if you want to fight and see blood, you have to wait." ”
Once the war starts, the contractors will have wartime bonuses and their incomes will be higher.
In these years, mercenaries are not easy to be a mercenary, such as going to Africa, where the salary is about 50,000 US dollars after tax, and the salary in the United States for four months will be almost halved.
This is considered a high salary, and now there are many American veterans who want to join the "United Forces".
You must know that even if you stay in the United States all the time, it is nearly $40,000 a year, which is already a lot.
After being a soldier for five or six years, or more than ten years, and going home to become a blue-collar worker, it would be good to remove 20,000 points of tax a year.
It's not the life I'm used to, and the daily expenses are also large.
And in the "combined forces" as in the army, there is a rationing system, employees have very little place to spend their own money throughout the year, and there are very reasonable vacation arrangements.
And the opportunity to pay out of your own pocket for expatriate assignments is sometimes not once a month: for example, in Australia, cigarettes are rationed by the company, and Nima has to run hundreds of kilometers to find a small supermarket in the wasteland!
There are now fifteen people in the mine protection team in Australia, and even if they are fully operational, they can earn some bonuses for working as truck drivers.
There are few people, because there is no threat at all, it is mainly a decoration, deterrence, and by the way, the local employees have the concept of the company in their heads.
The Australian government doesn't allow anyone to engage in commercial competition on their own turf, and the Mine Guards can't expect kangaroos to rob diamond mines, right?
By the way, the most aggressive animal in Australia seems to be the wild boar, and the "Australian exotic animal" that the mine protection team likes to encounter the most.
The mine protection team is almost a hunting team, and even won a 5,000 Australian dollar hunting bonus from the local government for the photos of hunting wild boars.
There are too many wild boars!
Modern Westerners are not likely to deal with wild boars because they have a strong smell and can be caught in Western cooking methods.
But in the mining area of Australia, there are Chinese cooks, and there are many technicians and workers from China, and the guys who go out move back to the wild boar, which is a great thing for the whole mining area!
Take out the large radish from the refrigerator and use the old radish and spices to remove the fishy smell on the pork, and a pig can make at least a dozen different dishes.
Moreover, the Australian wild boar is not a native species of Australia, and its size is particularly large, because it was changed by domestic pigs, and it is said that it was brought to Australia by some European immigrants in the 18th century.
In order to increase food reserves, and in order to increase the food reserves, and Australia was so sparsely populated at that time, that they simply omitted the trouble of feeding, the immigrants released some domestic pigs into the mountains and pastures.
When you need it, you just carry a gun and put a hunting rack.
Due to the changes in the natural environment and lifestyle, this pig slowly became larger than when it was bred in captivity, and also grew bristles, and simply turned back into wild boars.
Pigs are omnivores, and after becoming wild boars in Australia, they have no natural predators, and they are often seen in semi-wilderness, all over Australia.
The body size is generally larger than the native wild boar in China, and the mine protection team has killed a one weighing nearly 300 kilograms, which can be said to be huge!
It is said that Comrade Xiang Zhangsheng was not too happy in Australia for more than a month, and the two heads of the pig nose peak and the wild boar belly were drunk in the summer for three days, and the days were not too leisurely!
Australians eat less pork, but the mine has basically stopped ordering frozen beef in the past two months, and eating wild boar is addictive.
Don't worry about being killed: the Australian wild boar is overflowing, and a few kilometers near the crazy point will be left behind, and the reputation is: rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest.
Drive a pickup truck and wander outside for a maximum of an hour, making sure you don't come back empty-handed.
Once, two "second goods" went out and met a group of wild boars composed of more than 30 wild boars, and after a few rounds, they pulled back 8 wild boars weighing more than 50 kilograms.
The guy in the kitchen scolded his mother, and the mine guard team helped people become a slaughtering team all day.
In Australia, even if you kill 1,000 wild boars a day, no one will care about you, and it's okay to litter them everywhere, as long as you don't pollute the water and throw them near settlements.
However, wild boars cannot be tortured, for example, hunting dogs cannot be allowed to bite the baby boar slowly, otherwise the maximum sentence is 3 years in prison or a fine of 5,000 yuan.
