After some deliberations, it was finally decided that Fang Shunqing, executive vice president of Xingyue Real Estate Group, would be the person in charge of all things Bentley Island, and he was also the chief executive of Bentley Island, which was recognized by the British government.

Fang Shunqing is also willing to accept this position, today's meeting has made it clear that the next year Xingyue Real Estate Group will change hands, if he wants to continue to work in the Li Foundation, then he can only return to Xiangjiang, and whether there will be a good position waiting for him at that time is not necessarily, after all, she is Qin Jiao, after she returns to Xiangjiang, there will naturally be a new job waiting for her, and she will not be allowed to work on the idle job.

It's different for these high-level people, if there are vacancies, it's okay, they can successfully fill the positions, if there are no vacancies, they can only go to a group for temporary posts, and it's hard to say how much power they have.

Bentley Island has a good area, if it is well developed, there is no problem in living hundreds of thousands of people, and as the head of such an area, it is still very fulfilling.

And as long as Li Guangyu is willing to invest, they can completely carry out land reclamation and continue to expand the area of Bentley Island, so that they have more room for development.

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Guangyu took a special plane to Perth, the capital of Western Australia, where the first phase of the Oriental Port project in the northwest of Western Australia and the railway from the Oriental Port to the Pilbara Marandu iron ore mine were officially completed.

This also marks the large-scale exploitation of the two giant iron ore mines in the Pilbara region, Marandou and Nueva iggi, which are no longer restricted by the two major mining groups Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton, and also breaks the monopoly of the two giants in the Pilbara region.

The construction of the Western Australian steel production company in the Oriental Port is also nearing completion, and it will be able to put into production in January, and after nearly two years of preparation, the Lee consortium finally has its own high-speed rail output.

At present, steel companies mainly produce various types of steel for construction, and also produce steel for automobiles, which has a great linkage with the industries of the Lee Foundation, and there is no need to worry about the products being sold.

When Li Guangyu arrived in Perth, it was already late at night, and Li Guangyu did not stop in Perth, and directly got into the vehicle arranged by Gu Zhengsheng and drove towards Oriental Port.

In the past, the area around the Oriental Port was still barren, but after Li Guangyu and their construction of the Oriental Port here, there were more real estate companies to develop here, and after several years of construction, it has begun to take shape.

Western Australia has also made timely adjustments to this, it has become a city, the name is Oriental Port, the Western Australian government intends to build this place into a shipping center and steel manufacturing center in the northwest of Western Australia, and is also communicating with the Bentley Group, hoping that the Bentley Group will put the Australian production base in the Oriental Port.

At present, Zhang Ziyu is still communicating with Western Australia, hoping to get more preferential policies, and in the future, the Taurus truck production base and Hengtong bus production base will be established in the Oriental Port to supply the markets of Australia and Indonesia and neighboring countries.

After Li Guangyu arrived at the Oriental Port, he only rested for less than three hours, then got up and washed up, ate some breakfast and left for the Oriental Port, today's opening ceremony was held at the Oriental Port, and the freight train will also depart from the Oriental Port Railway Station and sail to the Pilbara area.

The top leaders of Western Australia, the Chief Administrator of Western Australia, the Deputy Minister of Industry, the Deputy Minister of Transport, and the senior officials of the Oriental Port City Government were all present to congratulate them.

The event was also attended by shareholders of Singapore-Malaysia Iron Ore Development Berhad, including Lee Kong Woo, Cheng Yu Tong, Koo Chin Fu, Sumitomo Ki Young, Iwasaki Toshiyoung, Lee Kun Hee, Cheng Zhou Yong and others.

Also present were Zhao Xiaoyan, President of Xingyuan Group, Gu Zhengsheng, President of Western Australia Steel Group, Su Weisheng, Vice President of Wheelock Group, and Sumitomo Hideyoshi, President of Sumitomo Metal Company.

The event was presided over by Xu Yuntao, Chairman and General Manager of Singapore-Malaysia Iron Ore Development Company, who is also the Vice President of Xingyuan Group.

When Li Guangyu arrived, the attendees here had almost arrived, and there were only ten minutes left before the start of the event.

Sumitomo Qiying saw Li Guangyu coming over and said to him: "Mr. Li, congratulations, your industry has taken a big step forward and officially entered the steel industry. ”

Li Guangyu responded: "Mr. Sumitomo, you really think too highly of me, my companies have a shallow foundation, and the technology is relatively backward, compared with your Sumitomo is still too far behind, especially in heavy industry, some of my companies have just stepped into it."

Don't say that it is compared with you, even with the industries under Mr. Lee Kun-hee, Mr. Jung Joo-yong, Mr. Cho Chong-xun and so on.

I believe that in the future, your industry will definitely be second to none in terms of heavy industry, such as shipbuilding, and you are strong in this aspect. ”

Sumitomo Ki-young originally hoped to exalt Lee Guangyu and exaggerate the threat of the Lee consortium so that there would be a gap between the Lee consortium and the Korean consortium, but Lee Guangyu turned against the army and highlighted the competition between them and the Korean consortium.

During this time, Sumitomo Kirei was quite unhappy that Wheelock Line Group had ordered a large number of tankers and LNG carriers from various shipyards in South Korea, but not one at their Sumitomo shipyards.

At this time, they found that not only the Lee consortium was a great threat to them, but also the gradually rising Korean consortium could not be underestimated.

At present, several major Japanese conglomerates have a feeling that they are being attacked by the enemy, and they are engaged in fierce competition between the North American and American conglomerates, and they are facing challenges from the Lee consortium and the Korean consortium in Asia.

On the one hand, Sumitomo Kiying and others hope that the Lee consortium will be able to make enemies with the South Korean consortium, and on the other hand, they also hope that the relationship with the Lee consortium will be appropriately improved, so that the relationship between the two sides will not be too bad and some cooperation between the two sides can be carried out.

Lee Kun-hee and others are also well aware of the calculations of the Japanese consortium and the Lee consortium, and their Korean consortium is currently the weakest, and they do not want to be hostile to any consortium now.

Li Jianxi said loudly: "Mr. Sumitomo, Mr. Li, we are all Oriental capital, there is no need to compete with each other and squeeze each other, the world market is very large, we can join forces to grab the market in other regions, and avoid hurting our friendship with each other." ”

No one present will take Lee Kun-hee's words seriously, except for the naked interests of the three parties, there is no friendship at all, and the market is so big, the industries of the three parties are highly overlapping, and it is impossible without competition.

Several parties were smiling and talking about useless topics, and time passed slowly, and the official operation celebration ceremony of Dongfang Port and Dongla Railway officially began.

Xu Yuntao first expressed his gratitude to the distinguished guests, and at the same time introduced the scale of the Oriental Port, the operation time of the entire section of the Dongla Railway, and the annual carrying capacity to the attendees, and also thanked the Western Australian government and the major shareholders of the Singapore-Malaysia Iron Ore Development Company for their support.
