Chapter 488: Franklin's Power (Asking for a Monthly Pass!)
Although I understand, I still feel pain in my heart!
If you invest in a cement plant with an annual output of 10 million tons, you will eventually be able to reach an annual output of more than 800 tons.
You know, I originally planned to pay a little more overtime pay, and let them work hard for themselves according to 11 million tons, 12 million tons!
In this way, the production of domestic and foreign countries in a year will be less than 3 to 4 million tons, and the income will be 2 or 3 billion yuan a year, which is equivalent to nearly 400 million US dollars.
"Monroe, if you don't leave a margin and run at full capacity, just a regular shutdown, how long can these lines run without failure?"
"If you can maintain it regularly, you can run it without problems for five years!" Monroe said after a moment's thought.
"How long does each service need to be downtime?"
"Boss, we shut down for maintenance, not all machinery stops running, so basically it won't affect normal production!"
"Dear Monroe, then I don't understand, since it is running at full capacity, as long as it is guaranteed to be regularly maintained, it can be used for five years without failure!
Why do you have a margin of 15 percent?
Do you know how much money I lose in a year with the fifteen percent margin you have set aside?
If you lose $150 million in one year, you'll lose $750 million in five years!"
"But, boss, if that's the case, it will reduce the life of the machine!
It's okay in the early stage, but in the middle stage, there will be frequent failures......"
"Fuck the breakdowns are frequent, fuck the life of the damn less!
Monroe, I didn't even use $750 million to build this cement plant!
In order to prolong the life of the fucking shit, you actually made me lose 150 million a year!
Monroe, I'm going to stab you in the ass with a stick right now!
Do you know that the money lost in five years is enough for me to build two new cement plants!" Yu Qingyang slapped the table and scolded.
Monroe Bentham scratched his scalp, looking dazed and puzzled.
I am obviously helping the boss save money, which can extend the life of at least half of the machinery, and how to get into the boss's mouth has become a loss.
Yankees, sometimes very rigid, and they are very poor at math, many people know that two plus two equals four, but they can't do the math, two plus five minus three equals many.
Monroe Bentham is still thinking about how he lost more than 100 million US dollars a year in strict accordance with the operating procedures, maximizing work efficiency, increasing the service life of machinery, and saving money for the boss.
The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and stars began to appear in Monroe's eyes!
"Okay, you don't have to think about it, just do what I say!
All machinery is fully loaded, and regular maintenance is guaranteed.
In addition, I just designed the production capacity of Company L to be conservative, that is, it can increase the output on top of the annual output of 10 million tons.
If you can reach an annual output of more than 11 million tons of cement!
At the end of the year, I will give you a red envelope with 10 million US dollars!" Yu Qingyang no longer reasoned with Monroe Bentham, but directly gave an order!
"11 million tons?boss...... Is it true that you said that you will give out 10 million dollars in red envelopes at the end of the year?"
"Of course it's true, all of you are witnesses!
If you can reach 12 million tons, I will give you a red envelope with 20 million US dollars!" Yu Qingyang said proudly.
At this time, no big reason worked, or Franklin was the best to use, and a bunch of Franklin directly knocked Monroe Bentham unconscious.
It is no longer considered that there is a full load, and overload operation will damage the machinery.
"Boss, what about us? Do we also have red envelopes in our brick factory?"
"Thorndike, your brick factory is the same! According to the designed annual output, I will give you red envelopes for the part that exceeds the designed annual output!
The distribution of red envelopes is all up to you and Monroe!"
"Boss, don't worry!
No!
Exceed the task!
I'll get a thorny stick when I go back, and whoever doesn't do a good job will stab his ass with a thorny stick!" Thorndike said viciously.
As soon as Yu Qingyang finished speaking, Monroe Bentham and Neil Thorndike couldn't hold back and were ready to go back to the factory immediately to supervise production.
"You two do a good job!
The production task is thus decided! According to the design capacity, 10% of the excess part will be used as a bonus!
The matter of recruitment is also decided!
Next, let's talk about the marble mine!"
"Boss, the security of the Tutuo tribe is terrible!
Located near the border of the three countries, in Sudan, in the territory of Chad, the rebels often cross the border!
We lost a dozen workers for this!
You can only hand over the mining to the Tutuo tribe, and as a result, you already know!" Angela gave a detailed report on the situation of the mine.
At this time, the southern part of Ajigeria was indeed unstable.
Or rather, the countries around Ajigeria are not stable.
A coup d'état has just taken place in Egypt.
Sudan, Chad, and Niger are all fighting with the rebels, and it is very lively.
There is no big war, but you come and go every now and then to fire a few shots, two shots, or detonate a bomb or something.
Since it is so dangerous, is it profitable to mine marble?
Of course it is profitable, and the profits are very good.
The cost of mining marble in Africa is only a dozen yuan per ton, and if you count security, it will not exceed thirty yuan per ton.
But when it is shipped to China, a ton of blocks can be sold for a thousand yuan.
Excluding freight, 100 yuan per ton, tariffs, and tens of times the profit per ton transported to China.
And that's just the blocks, and if they are processed into plates, the profits are higher.
"Is all the machinery and equipment ready for marble mining?"
"Ready! ready to be shipped to the mine at any time!"
"Okay, after the opening ceremony of the cement factory, we will set off for the mining area!" Yu Qingyang nodded.
"Mr. Xu, there are two squadrons left here in the building materials factory, and everyone else goes to the mining area!
Build a line of defense around the mine to keep the mine safe!
What equipment do you need, you pull a list, and I'll let Manager Zhang go to procure!" Yu Qingyang said decisively.
"Yes!
……
Just then, Angela's secretary came in to report that Ronald, the mayor of Butitan City, had arrived.
"Hehe, it just so happens that I originally wanted to talk to him, on his territory, he actually let the mining area be abandoned for months!" Yu Qingyang sneered.
Get up and go to the reception room.
"Haha, Mayor Ronald, my dear friend, it's great to see you again!" Yu Qingyang laughed and opened his hands to Ronald and hugged him tightly.
"Yu, dear Chinese friend, I am very happy to see you!
When I heard that you were coming, I hurried over to greet my dear Chinese friend!"
"Mayor Ronald, if you don't come, I'll visit you later!
I brought you a gift from China!
A gift from great China!" Yu Qingyang smiled enthusiastically.
"Thank you, you're so generous!" Ronald thanked.
The gift brought by Yu Qingyang is tea!
It's not a very good tea.
They are all Pu'er that sell for about 100 yuan in China.
The wholesale price of such tea is only thirty or forty yuan.
Yu Qingyang brought a lot of this kind of tea, on the one hand, he drank it himself, and on the other hand, he gave it away!
The upper class of African society still has a very large demand for tea, especially in *** countries, where alcohol is prohibited, and tea is used instead of wine to entertain guests.
It's not that Yu Qingyang is stingy, and he is reluctant to send good tea.
The main thing is to give them good tea, and they can't drink good or bad tea.
They drink tea and like to put sugar and mint in their tea.
Arabs use sugar mint tea to entertain their guests.
There is the etiquette of three cups of tea, the first cup of tea is bitter, the second cup of tea is soft, and the third cup of tea is sweet, representing three different life experiences.
Yu Qingyang drank three cups of tea from the Arabs, in fact, when the first cup was made, the sugar had not yet melted, so there was only bitterness in the tea, and the second cup had somewhat dissolved, plus the neutralization of the mint, it naturally became softer, and the third cup of sugar had melted away, and it became sweet.
"Mr. Yu, I heard that there are many armed forces in your company?
I would like to remind you that private arming is illegal in our country!
The army, the armed forces can only have the great old card commander......"
Yu Qingyang smiled secretly, fooling the ghost?
Which tribe in Africa doesn't have weapons?
No matter how small a tribe is, it has its own weapons, otherwise it will not survive at all.
Like Ronald's tribe, not to mention guns, even cannons.
"Mayor Ronald, I'm not an illegal arm!
That's the legal security company we hired!
They are all registered in your country and are legally presence!
Mayor Ronald can inquire with the relevant departments of Geographic Glass!" Yu Qingyang corrected with a smile.
"I think they're all Chinese!" Ronald said.
This is the first time that a large-scale Chinese armed force has appeared on the continent of Africa.
Of course, peacekeeping forces do not count.
This is about armed forces such as mercenaries, military contractors, security companies, etc.
In the past, Chinese companies that came to Africa to help build or come to Africa to do business hired international security companies or local military forces to provide security for them.
"That's right! They are all veterans from China!
All are the security personnel of Huayu International Security Company, a subsidiary of Huayu Investment Group!
Of course, the security personnel of Huayu International Security Company are not just the Chinese veterans you see!
There are also veterans from other countries!" Yu Qingyang explained with a smile.
It has been repeatedly emphasized that we are an international security company, and the personnel include veterans of various countries, just to dilute the fact that the security company composed of Chinese veterans has appeared on the land of Africa.
"Mayor Ronald, I've heard that our marble mining is not going well!
It's already in a state of stagnation, isn't that so?" Yu Qingyang pulled the topic away.
"Yes, I was about to talk about that too!
I have made a deal with the rebels in the south!
Make the mining area a buffer zone, and no armed forces will be allowed to enter the zone!"
The marble mining area is stagnant, and Ronald is more anxious than Yu Qingyang, but there are his shares in it, and real money is invested in shares.
"Really, then our security personnel can't enter the mining area?" Yu Qingyang asked.
