Chapter 473 Mining Rights
"Mr. Sheng, I would like to take the liberty of asking, has your group encountered any problems in the construction of Africa? If it is a technical problem, we can cooperate in depth. Lu Zixin asked.
Sheng Wenyan thought for a moment and said, "It's not something that can't be said. We have acquired two minerals in Nigeria, each with a 30-year development right. ”
"One is tin ore and the other is iron ore. According to the plan, there should be no problem. But recently we got inside information that the mining rights of these two mines may be taken back by the local government!"
"Take it back, is there a loophole in your procedures?" Lu Zixin asked suspiciously.
Sheng Wenyan smiled bitterly and said, "That's not the case, everything we do is in strict accordance with the local management regulations. They learn European management law, which is more complicated than in our own country. We have spent what we should have spent, and we have spent what we should not have spent. Tens of millions of construction materials have been donated!"
"However, the political situation in that place is not very stable. Even the established policies can be revised!" Sheng Wenyan said here, feeling deeply helpless, "Now they recognize our mineral mining rights, which are recognized by this government. A year later, a general election will be held, and according to our information, if the leaders who may be elected are elected, there is a good chance that our mining rights will be withdrawn, for example, the 30-year mining rights we bought will be forcibly shortened to three years, five years... I can't say a word or two about the interests involved, and some things are not easy to say. ”
"But as a result, if we can't mine enough ore in more than a year, our two mines will be handed over to the Nigerian government in vain!
Domestic entrepreneurs may be surprised to hear that they do not understand some of the routines of foreign countries because they have been doing business in China for a long time. But in Africa, this is not the first time this has happened, but it happens often.
A few years ago, many Chinese entrepreneurs went to Africa to expand the market, but because of the change of regime, they were withdrawn from the right to operate or exploit, or they were fined by various new policies and lost their money!
Because of its experience, Guangtu Mining wants to prepare in advance to reduce the risks it may face.
"I see. Lu Zixin nodded, "But at this time, I'm still a little nervous." ”
"I can't help it, how much can I recover the cost? Sheng Wenyan said, "Maybe it's lucky that after a year, our mining rights have not changed?"
"I hope you have the best of luck. Lu Zixin said, "Since this is the case, then I will let the company think of a way to prioritize your business and design and produce new machinery and equipment as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, thank you, trouble Mr. Lu!" Sheng Wenyan hurriedly thanked.
"Don't be too busy saying thank you. Lu Zixin said, "Actually, I also have something I want to trouble Mr. Sheng." ”
You say. ”
"Guangtu Mining is strong, especially in the production of raw materials such as ore. And our Pengyun Automobile, Pengyun Machinery these companies, have a special demand for metal raw materials. There is also Hongxin Group, which also has a great demand for raw materials for high-tech materials. The domestic market is basically saturated, and we are considering going directly to Africa to purchase, or even mine raw materials. ”
"But we are not familiar with the origin of raw materials, policies and so on in African countries, can we cooperate with you in these aspects?"
Before the negotiations, Lu Zixin had the investigation materials prepared by the people and pre-studied them in advance.
"Of course you can ......" Sheng Wenyan agreed, he was worried that he did not have a strong partner.
The raw material market in the African market is very huge, and he is afraid that it is not competition, but there is no strength to compete. You know, because of Africa's historical legacy, the main ones that now occupy the African raw material market are the British and French multinational companies, and they are the real giants.
The former European powers, although their economic status has declined, still play an important role in the world economy.
In the African market, Chinese enterprises are really rookies in the face of these large British and French multinational companies.
Hongxin Group is undoubtedly a giant enterprise rising on the world economic stage, and Sheng Wenyan is very happy to cooperate with Hongxin Group.
And Lu Zixin has already investigated. Guangtu Mining's business in Africa is almost the best among Chinese enterprises, and since there is such a relationship, cooperation is also a wise choice.
Both sides have intentions, the atmosphere of the negotiation is naturally very harmonious, Lu Zixin immediately assured, is to personally supervise, but also let Pengyun Machinery to create an intelligent high-power mining machine.
Sheng Wenyan also promised that he would cooperate with Hongxin Group in terms of raw materials. Provide them with a stable supply channel of raw materials or help Hongxin Group to enter the African market.

"Mining machines, they need to be efficient. I'm not a miner, I'm a combative Cybertron!" Dongfang Hao emphasized in the private villa, and as he spoke, he drank a can of concentrated gasoline into his stomach, which was his drink.
"Have you learned so many drawings in vain?" Lu Zixin asked rhetorically.
"Daddy, you have to figure it out. Dongfang Hao explained, "Even on the planet Cybertron, mining robots are also specially classified. That's who, yes, Megatron, the nemesis of Optimus Prime, wasn't a miner in the beginning, and then rebelled. ”
"You were still an iron-headed baby when you were born!" Lu Zixin said disdainfully.
"It's different now!" Dongfang Hao opened another can of gasoline, making the room smell of gasoline, "Now I'm a liquid metal cyborg! ”
"Zhang Qiang, can you handle it?" Lu Zixin asked RI-8901.
In order not to be suspicious, the image of RI-8901 is somewhat different from before. His bionic skin has been treated in more detail, and he has also grown a beard, and his burly figure looks like a big Russian man!
"Master, in my database, there are hundreds of design drawings of mining robots. Depending on the type of mineral, different mining robots can be designed. It's a magic gem mine, and I can design and mine it!" Zhang Qiang replied.
"Mining robots?" Lu Zixin wanted to get a mining machine, but he didn't expect RI-8901 to have a mining robot.
"Show me the information. Lu Zixin commanded.
"Yes, master. RI-8901 transferred the data to the small red quantum database, and after the intelligent screening of the small red small, it was shown to Lu Zixin.
