54. Iron ore negotiations
"Let's keep an eye on this matter. Gu Quangui sighed and said, "You don't need to worry about the affairs in the store for the time being, let's keep an eye on this matter first." ”
He runs a supermarket, and Lu Zheng runs a restaurant, but for the two of them, these are part-time jobs, a cover for their identity, making money or losing money, it doesn't matter to the two of them, it's theirs to make money, and it's Li Lao'er who loses money, what are you afraid of!
Besides, their own business has long been on the right track, and there are special people guarding it, but in fact, the absence of the two of them has little impact.
"I know this in my heart," Lu Zheng turned his words and rolled his eyes slightly, "That Shaman, do you think you are sure to take it?"
I've heard what the Thai boxing champion is, but I've never heard of this person. ”
"Where did Ding Li's little bastard go?" Gu Quangui pulled out a puff of cigarette, "Let him come over, don't mess with the club every day, it's not good for him, don't think that if you have a hard fist, you can dodge bullets, and sooner or later you will have to be shot to death." ”
"So you're not sure. Lu Zheng knew in his heart that Ding Li was the most capable of fighting in the United States, and letting Ding Li come showed that Gu Quangui couldn't do Shaman!
Finally relieved, it turned out that he was not the only one who was so useless, "I was transferred to Mr. Li by Qiu Liang, this kid looks unstingy on the surface, and he is full of tiger anger, but he is smart, Mr. Li is in the United States, where does he dare to mess around, you don't see, he saw Mr. Li, like a mouse seeing a cat, and he didn't dare to breathe."
If he really had the backbone, he would not eat Mr. Lee's food and continue to boxing in clubs in Brooklyn. ”
"Dare to shout, Song Gu can skin him, if it weren't for Qiu Liang being his old squad leader, who would be so fucking used to him?" Gu Quangui continued to ask, "Did Mr. Li say when he would return to China?"
"You don't know, how do I know?" Lu Zheng leaned against the wall, gave him a blank look and said, "Hey, let's not worry about Mr. Li's affairs, now there are more and more crazy people, and we still have to pay attention to the safety of Miss, I heard that there are more and more terrorists now." ”
As soon as his words fell, two gunshots rang out from the corner of the alley.
"It's a luxury to want to spend a day in New York without gunfire. "Shootings have become part of the everyday vocabulary of Americans. Gu Quangui paused and said, "It is said that 4 Chinese died in the shooting incident in Binghamton a few days ago, and they are all students, and the burden on our shoulders is very heavy, okay, officer, don't talk like this." ”
The night in New York is getting darker, the lights are getting brighter, and the moon is getting rounder.
"The moon is round in a foreign country. Li He held a beer in one hand and a balustrade in the other, occasionally pouring two more sips into his mouth.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Singh wants to meet you. Wang Ziwen pushed the door in, and when he saw Li He was puzzled, he added, "It's the chairman of Australia's Talison Mining, that Indian origin." ”
"Oh, it turned out to be him. He has too many industrial layouts, not everyone remembers them, not to mention the names of so many strange foreigners, "He came to the United States?"
"He is at Ivanov's estate at the moment, and he is also present at the banquet tonight," Wang Ziwen explained, "and he came with Mr. Rupert Murdoch. ”
"Murdoch, the Australian newspaper tycoon?" asked Li He.
"Yes, Murdoch told the media these days that MySpace is too large and even a little out of control, and that measures must be taken to correct it. I am looking for someone to take over, and I have found Sun Softbank, Bezos, Ma Taobao and Miss Guo Dongyun, but I don't think there is any news, and the negotiation may not be successful. ”
"MySpace?" Li Hele said, "let him smash his own hands, no one is allowed to take over." ”
In the Internet era, Internet companies rise and fall rapidly, with new companies going online in a high-profile manner every day, and old companies closing their doors in a low-key manner.
"Yes. Wang Ziwen nodded, and then asked, "What about Singh?"
"Let him in. Li He put the finished beer on the table and opened a bottle again.
After Singh tugged at the hem of his suit, straightened his waist, and then stood in front of Li He, "Mr. Li, long time no see." ”
"Isn't it hot?" Li He looked at his tight tie and panicked for him.
"There was air conditioning. Even if Singh's answer was simple, it was after a long time of deliberation.
"So the Yankees are a waste. ”
Keynes said that only consumption is the driving force of social progress. Singh had the audacity to untie his tie and take off his suit, because Li Laoer's house was not air-conditioned, and he couldn't breathe from the heat.
"Did Keynes say that?" Li He twisted for a long time, didn't think about it for a long time, and didn't care anymore, "You have something to do with me?"
"Negotiations between Brazil's Vale and Chinese negotiators have been suspended because Vale's asking price is too high, demanding a 90 percent increase in the 2010 benchmark price, although no written offer has been made. Singh took the beer handed over by Li He, and threw the suit in his hand on the sofa, "The iron ore negotiations for the new year are underway, BHP Billiton and other mining giants have adopted a cold treatment to negotiate with the Chinese side, seeking a strategy of close contact with Japan and South Korea, trying to go back to the old road, and force Chinese companies to accept high prices by finalizing the initial price in 2010 with Japanese and South Korean companies." ”
If his boss is not Chinese, he will definitely be on the same line as BHP Billiton and Vale, and no one will dislike money.
The world's three largest mines have selected the Platts index as the basis for the pricing of long-term mines, and since no Chinese consulting company has entered the intermediate industry of index pricing during the same period, Chinese steel companies have been forced to accept Platts pricing one after another.
It's a good money.
"As the world's largest importer of iron ore, China imports 50% of the world's iron ore trade. Li He took a sip of wine, "This proportion may exceed 60% in the future, Vale, Rio Tinto, BHP Billiton are the three major mines, but China's choice is more than one Australia, if the price is $150, why not choose Venezuela's iron ore?"
Coupled with the long-distance transportation fee, it is more cost-effective than importing into Australia and more cost-effective than Brazil. ”
"Venezuela has very little iron ore, and it is difficult to break the monopoly on the supply and price of iron ore, and the total amount of iron ore exported by Venezuela to China last year was only 3 million tons, and the total amount of 630 million tons of iron ore imports is less than a fraction. Singh couldn't help but retort.
"Venezuela is rich in mineral resources, and countries like Sierra Leone in West Africa will also surprise people. Li He replied with a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Lee. Singh instantly understood.
As long as there are reserves, the rest is to see whether Li Lao Er is willing to develop it.
