Chapter 249: Port Construction

Second, it is oil that fuels the development of shipping.

The Middle East is the region with the richest oil reserves in the world.

It is also a strategic location in the United States.

After helping the Jews to restore Israel, the United States intervened in three Middle East wars with the help of this rocker and obtained massive oil resources.

This oil needs to be transported back to the United States, and it needs the support of giant oil tankers.

In recent decades, the shipping industry has been the most profitable industry in the world, more profitable than real estate.

But it's still a truth, everyone is staring at this bowl of meat.

Overdevelopment.

Not only Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Malaysia, South Korea, Thailand, India, are desperately developing the shipping industry.

By the mid-70s, the shipping industry was saturated.

The 50s, to the 70s, was the most prosperous period for the world shipping industry.

In the 70s, it began to be sluggish.

Due to the inability to find new profit growth points, coinciding with the soaring housing prices in Hong Kong, Hong Kong's four major ship kings have turned to real estate.

The shipping industry has weakened.

Until the year.

Two major events have happened in the world.

First, China announced reform and opening up, opening up the first batch of 14 coastal cities and hundreds of ports.

Seventy-nine years ago, the Hong Kong shipping industry, which received the news, set off an earthquake.

China's opening of ports is a heavy blow to Hong Kong and the whole of Southeast Asia, and it has suddenly become a giant competitor.

The stocks of the four major ship kings have fallen to the bottom, Hong Kong's stocks are different from the mainland, he has no fall limit, T+0 trading rules, you can get rich overnight, or you can go bankrupt overnight.

Dong Haoyun, one of the four major ship kings in Hong Kong, and Oriental Shipping Group, evaporated 3 billion yuan in market value overnight.

Panic.

The second is the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq war, which triggered the second oil crisis.

Oil is the lifeblood of modern industry, the blood.

The price of crude oil directly affects the economy of a large country.

In the beginning, the price of oil was very cheap, because the Middle East was poor, there were constant wars, and energy had to be sold for arms.

Before 1973, the price of crude oil was only $3 a barrel.

But in 1973, it suddenly rose to $13, a barrel.

It has risen several times.

This was the first oil crisis.

The first oil crisis, which made the cost of production and construction, directly caused the economic crisis in several European countries and the economic recession that lasted for more than ten years.

What is the reason? There is a war.

When the Fourth Middle East War broke out, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) OPEC, 14 member countries, including Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and other countries, united to oppose the Western oil monopoly.

In order to crack down on Israel, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, in order to crack down on Western countries that support Israel, mainly aimed at the United States, launched a wave of oil embargo, suspended exports, and jointly raised prices, raising oil prices from $3 to $13.

It lasted only 7 years.

It's war again.

In 78 years, Iran's civil war suspended oil exports for 60 days, resulting in a shortage of 5 million barrels of oil per day in the world, accounting for 1/10 of the entire world production, and the price of oil rose from $13 to $25.

In 80, the Iran-Iraq war broke out, and Iran, fighting Iraq, caused an even greater oil shortage.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) took advantage of the fire and jointly raised prices, resulting in another increase from $25 to $41 per barrel in 80 years.

In seven years, two oil crises have risen from $3 to $41.

For the next 38 years, international crude oil, from 1980 to 2018, was only $65.

You can imagine how horrible this is.

After the outbreak of the second oil crisis, the international shortage of crude oil triggered a shipping crisis.

In addition to Bao Yugang, the four major ship kings were prescient, and during the first oil crisis, Bao Yungang had more than 200 huge ships, and by 80 years, there were 40 ships left.

What was this concept? At that time, a huge ship, worth a lot, could buy a skyscraper in Central, Hong Kong.

After the sale of the giant wheel, the money was taken out, 2.2 billion bloody investment, the acquisition of Wharf, and the transfer to real estate.

The industrial transformation was completed, and the shipping crisis broke out, but it earned 40 billion.

The other three ship kings are all bankrupt.

Dong Haoyun's Oriental Shipping has a debt of 200 billion.

triggered the economic crisis in Hong Kong in the 80s.

It has also accelerated the transfer of Hong Kong's manufacturing industry to Shenzhen.

Portland said: "After the shipping crisis in the 80s, the entire world's shipping industry has been very seriously affected, for our businessmen, it is very unfavorable, after the crisis to survive the shipping companies, have raised prices, resulting in the cost of shipping has risen by half, so European countries, land transportation is very important, the demand is very urgent, your country's policy on port construction, do you understand?"

Although Fan Yang was reborn, he didn't remember everything.

Moreover, the experience of the previous life was only limited to ordinary trade, and it did not reach a higher level at all.

Fan Yang shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Portland said: "Let me tell you, your country in 86 years, has gradually opened up the joint venture rights of the port, at the beginning it was only the loading and unloading business, allowing Sino-foreign joint ventures, and later allowing Sino-foreign joint ventures, leasing port infrastructure, 89 years, further liberalization, allowing foreign sole proprietorship to build a special wharf for cargo owners, 90 years, can also operate special berths, and lease, to now, the comprehensive construction of the port has also been liberalized, not only allow foreign investment, but also allow private enterprises." ”

Fan Yang was slightly surprised, he really didn't know this.

Portland added: "In 91, the first joint venture terminal, the China-Hong Kong joint venture, the Shekou Container Terminal in Shenzhen, was established, and in February this year, the Huangpu Group, together with the Shanghai Port Authority, established the Shanghai Container Terminal Co., Ltd., which has become the world's largest joint venture project in the transportation industry. ”

The more Fan Yang listened, the more frightened he became.

Suddenly I reacted.

That's right.

I actually ignored this.

After 92 years, the port was fully liberalized, and after joining the World Trade Organization in 2000, it was even allowed to be wholly owned by foreign investors.

Mu in history is also in the year, in other words, now.

A plan for the development of Manchuria was proposed.

With an investment of 10 billion yuan, we will build Manchuria into the Hong Kong of the north.

The world's largest highway port has been built, with 8 highways and 8 toll stations, connecting the Eurasian Land Bridge.

For this reason, the Manchuria government also granted 10 square kilometers of land to the Nande group.

Fan Yang stood up suddenly: "You want to invest in the construction of a port?"

Portland was surprised again, and after only two or three sentences of dialogue, Fan Yang broke through.

It seems that he still underestimated this young man.

Portland nodded: "Yes, the forty-eight group delegations, which have an FDI international direct investment company, plan to jointly venture with China and Singapore to develop the railway port of Alashankou and the highway port of Khorgos port, build a rail merge center, and invest in transportation, infrastructure, market, and industrial parks." ”

"So what are you talking about so far?" asked Fan Yang.

Portland shook his head: "I have limited responsibilities and limited projects, I just know about it, I don't know the specific negotiation agenda, but I know that we have a very difficult competitor at the moment, and this group is very strong, and it is a big obstacle for us." ”

Fan Yang asked, "Which group knows?"

Portland thought for a moment, but said, "The South German Group." ”

Wow.

Fan Yang couldn't help but want to curse.

Nande Group, isn't this one of them?

In addition to Manchuria, Mu Zhong also developed a new one?
