Chapter 878: The Fish Bites

On the morning of the next day, Li Guangyu met with Sumitomo Kimura and Mitsui Akitoshi in his office, who had arrived in Xiangjiang, to discuss the Malandu iron ore mine.

Li Guangyu's big momentum is to attract these consortiums and family leaders to come and jointly invest in the Western Australian mines, if the Li consortium alone invests, Li Guangyu is facing very great pressure.

With the addition of these consortiums, he will be able to harvest some of his own cash to invest in other industries, and with their participation, the development in Western Australia will be smoother.

Li Guangyu warmly invited the two to sit in the reception area, and at the same time poured tea for the two of them.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Sumitomo and Mr. Mitsui, I don't know if the two of you are coming together, what is the matter?"

The two of them knew very well that Li Guangyu knew their intentions, and their domestic iron ore was mainly imported from Western Australia and Brazil, which were currently under their control, and they could not take the initiative in terms of price.

Now that the Li consortium has discovered a giant iron mine, they feel that this is an opportunity that cannot be missed, especially Li Guangyu's intention to attract personnel to intervene this time, if they give up like this, how can they take advantage of the opportunity given by God.

Sumitomo Kimura said: "Mr. Li, our two families have been very happy to cooperate with you over the years, and our Sumitomo family hopes to reach more cooperation projects with you, such as your iron ore mine in Western Australia, where we still have a lot of channels, and I believe that with our joining, Marandu Iron Mine will be able to obtain profits earlier." ”

Li Guangyu is waiting for this, as long as these two companies open their mouths, the next negotiation will be much easier, and the specific price negotiation will be negotiated by the professionals of Xingyuan Group, he only needs to determine the matter.

"I also know that there are still a lot of troubles in mining iron ore in Western Australia, especially that there is currently the world of Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton, and we Xingyuan Group still need a long way to go if we want to gain a firm foothold in this. ”

Sumitomo Kimura and Mitsui Akito were thrilled to hear that Lee was willing to cooperate, and once they had a stake in the Marandou Iron Mine, they would have the initiative in future iron ore import negotiations, and once they had the pricing power, domestic iron ore imports would be cheaper.

As for the so-called charter in Li Guangyu's mouth, it is nothing more than the interests involved, Sumitomo Kimura knows very well that Li Guangyu and the Li family's top management are not fuel-efficient lamps, and this time they will not come up with a price that satisfies both parties, but they are afraid that they will not be able to share the benefits of this huge iron mine.

Mitsui Mingyi said with a smile: "Mr. Li, the two of us have always maintained a good relationship, and at present, if we want to rise in the Oriental Consortium, we must unite closely together to deal with the suppression of the European and American consortiums. We in the Mitsui family have always been very generous to our friends, and I am sure that you will be able to reap the benefits this time. ”

At present, the competition between Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo and other consortia in the North American market and the U.S. consortia has entered a white-hot one, and they urgently need new forces to support them in order to win the competition with several major U.S. consortia.

At present, in the Eastern world, in addition to their several major consortia in Japan, the Lee Consortium is the most powerful, whether it is Singapore or South Korea and the families in the treasure island are too far apart from the strength of the Lee Consortium.

The most important thing is that the strength of the Lee Foundation has expanded quite rapidly, almost a step a year, and if the Lee Foundation continues to develop at this speed, the Lee Foundation will be a challenger to their Japanese Foundation in the future.

Sumitomo Kimura and Mitsui Akitomi are very aware that because of the existence of the American consortium, their families will always maintain the current friendly relationship with the Lee consortium until the American consortium is defeated.

Once the threat of the American consortium disappears, the friendly relationship between these consortiums and the Lee consortium will also come to an end, and then they will fight directly for the market.

Li Guangyu said with a smile: "We have a similar culture for thousands of years, and in modern times, the global rules are formulated by the West, and many industries are currently controlled by Western consortiums. ”

Although Li Guangyu said this, he will not jump out to fight directly with the American consortium at present, and now let the Japanese consortium attract the attention of the American consortium in the front, and his Li consortium will accumulate a little more strength in the past few years, and then it will be able to go head-to-head with the American consortium.

"Mr. Li, you are so right, now the world order is mainly formulated by the West, we absolutely cannot let this situation continue, we may not be able to change other aspects, but we are still capable of economically, whether it is North America or Western Europe Economic development has some problems, this is a good time for us to attack, we very much hope to be able to reach a comprehensive cooperation agreement with the Li consortium. ”

As the leader of Japan's six major consortia, the Mitsui family is under the greatest pressure in the competition with the American consortium, and it is the consensus of several major Japanese consortiums to win over the Lee consortium.

Li Guangyu will not jump out to oppose the American consortium now, the strength of the Li consortium is still too low, the foundation is unstable, and jumping out now is likely to make the Li consortium's hard-won development achievements over the years go to ruin.

Whether it is the top ten consortia in each country or the six major consortia in Japan, its strength is far from being comparable to that of the Lee consortium, and making a fortune in a muffled voice is the king at this time.

Li Guangyu was playing Tai Chi with them in this regard, and inadvertently changed the topic during the conversation later.

It wasn't until eleven o'clock in the morning that Sumitomo Kimura and Mitsui Akiki left the Lee Building.

Regarding the Marandu iron ore mine in Western Australia, Li Guangyu is willing to take it out and develop it together, and as for the price of their shares, this still needs to be slowly communicated by the employees of both sides.

Li Guangyu and Sumitomo Kimura only need to confirm their intention to cooperate, and the rest of the matter will be handled by their own personnel, and if the two of them slowly bargain over this price like a vendor, it will really damage their image.

Li Guangyu said to Gan Qin: "You inform Gu Zhengsheng to speed up a detailed investigation around the Malandu mining area, estimate the value of the ore vein, and at the same time arrange for the group's senior management to contact the Sumitomo family and the Mitsui family." ”

"Okay Li Sheng, I will inform Gu Sheng later, I believe that Xingyuan Group will take care of this matter. ”

Gan Qin knew that the fish that Li Guangyu wanted to catch had bitten the hook, and if the Marandu iron ore mine could be sold at a good price this time, then the Li consortium's current loan of five billion US dollars would have a source.

She knew that Li Guangyu had been under a lot of pressure recently, and if it weren't for some conditions on the British side this time, Li Guangyu would not have thought of taking out a bank loan to expand the group.
