Rio Tinto has been planning for a long time to win the Northern Australian Mining Company, and it is impossible to give up easily. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Henry's intervention caught them off guard. This kind of disruption has also greatly increased the cost of acquisition, which is not good to say, and it is already detrimental to people.

After some consideration by the board of directors of Rio Tinto, the purchase price was raised to $20.5 billion. However, Henry immediately followed, bidding $21 billion, which was imperative for the Northern Mining Company of Australia!

Northern Australia Mining Corporation is one of the largest mining companies in the world, with a large number of iron ore mines in Australia.

Australia's large mining companies have low production costs, and their iron ore has always been favored by investors for its high grade. Among the various producing areas in the world, Australia's cost belongs to the lowest category, with the mining cost of large-scale mines at US$30/ton, while China, Vietnam and other poor countries have higher mining costs, and China's ore mining cost is about US$130/ton. That's why one Australia can support two of the world's biggest mining giants!

The reason why Rio Tinto Group was able to become the world's second largest mining giant was because of the acquisition of Australia's Northern Mining Company, so Henry would not give it this opportunity. In the previous life, BHP Billiton had already been acquired by Henry, and if it acquired the Australian Northern Mining Company, its strength would be unparalleled, and the pricing power would be completely in its own hands. Countless countries or companies have had to make overtures to Henry in order to get cheap minerals!

If Henry raises the price of iron ore, the world economy will tremble!

In the face of Henry's aggressiveness, Rio Tinto finally returned home.

Henry's acquisition of Northern Mining was immediately integrated into the Williams Mining Group. In just a few months, the most powerful mining company in history was born, much to the amazement of countries around the world. The major consortium families witnessed the rise of Henry, and they could only sigh with admiration. Most of them only pay attention to finance, and ignore the development of science and technology, coupled with Henry's foresight, taking advantage of opportunities such as the Japanese financial bubble, the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the Asian financial crisis, to rise strongly at an unimaginable speed. And as Henry's influence becomes stronger and stronger, the major consortia can only temporarily avoid his edge and dare not resist him!

Now, these consortia can only make small moves behind their backs, and there are only a handful of people who dare to openly argue with Henry. Some people say that the Williams family has grown into the largest family in the world, and its influence has even surpassed that of the Rothschild family in its heyday! The main influence of the Rothschild family in those days was in the financial field, but the Williams family has blossomed everywhere, and all walks of life are industry leaders, and even a monopoly has been formed! The huge wealth it has accumulated has even made people hesitate to start World War III for it......

Minerals are only natural minerals that are dug up from mines, and they need to be processed in various ways to become metal materials with certain properties. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a metallurgical department to carry out ironmaking, steelmaking, gold smelting, extraction of non-ferrous metals, and so on. BW, Billiton, and Northern Australia all have their own metallurgical divisions, but they don't focus on this direction. Mining companies and steel companies are distinct companies. Being both a referee and an athlete will undoubtedly attract envy. Obviously, mining companies are very competitive in terms of smelting costs when they establish steel companies, which will inevitably cause losses to other steel companies. Naturally, steel companies will resist this behavior and go to other places to buy minerals.

But for Henry, it was imperative to establish a steel company. There are too many companies under his name that use all kinds of metal materials, and what is the use of minerals alone, which cannot be refined into usable metals?

Some people are born to be great, and Henry was born to break the rules!!

Needless to say, Henry immediately ordered people to separate all the metallurgical departments of the Williams Mining Group, established the Williams Steel Company, and at the same time poached people from the world's major steel companies. Henry's current move can be regarded as provoking the anger of the public. Nippon Steel Corporation, Japan's largest steel company, was the first to protest, saying that if Henry Williams insisted on establishing Williams Steel, Nippon Steel would refuse to buy minerals from Williams Mining and cancel the order. This was followed by a similar statement from Nippon Steel Pipe, Japan's second-largest steel company!

Henry couldn't help sneering, sure enough, Japan is still good to me!!

Okay, then I'm welcome, poaching people from Japan!

In terms of production scale, among the world's top five steel companies, Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe are ranked second and fourth respectively, and in terms of production technology, Nippon Steel ranks first in the world and Japanese Steel Pipe ranks third in the world. If you don't dig Japan, dig where!

Henry then contacted many headhunting companies to help poach people, money is not a problem, stealing talents and bringing down the Japanese steel industry is the key!

At this time, global media reporters flocked to Melbourne, because they all knew that Henry was in Melbourne at the moment.

Henry did as they wished, and held a press conference.

As soon as Henry walked on stage, the reporters in the audience couldn't help but ask questions.

"Mr. Williams, Williams Mining has a monopoly on more than 45.6% of the world's minerals, and every move has a huge impact. Nowadays, it is natural to create your own steel company to attract opposition from other steel companies. Among them, Williams Mining's two major customers, Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe, even issued statements threatening to cancel the order if Williams Steel Company was not cancelled. What do you think, Mr. Williams?"

“……”

Henry picked up the microphone with a slight smile on his face.

"Hello friends from the media, welcome to this press conference. First of all, I would like to announce one thing. ”

Henry paused, glanced at everyone, and said lightly: "From today onwards, Williams Mining Group refuses to provide any minerals to Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar!

Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe are big customers, and the amount of iron ore needed every year is a very large data. Countless mining companies have cut their heads in order to compete for their orders. However, Henry Williams went so far as to say that from now on, he refused to provide any minerals to Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipes, and this was not a voluntary push of business? Could it be that Henry Williams's head was in water?

The directors of Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe Company, who watched the live broadcast from !! far away in Japan, immediately scolded, they believed that they were steel giants, and Henry would definitely give in, but they didn't expect Henry to be so decisive and directly announced that he would refuse to provide them with minerals. It's like putting your face up, thinking that the other party won't fight, thinking, after all, Lao Tzu is very awesome, do you dare to hit me? But unexpectedly, Henry just hit it, "snapped" twice, and gave Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe Company a hard slap in the face.

Williams Mining refused to provide them with minerals, and although Williams Mining suffered heavy losses, didn't Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe suffer significant losses? First, the supply of goods will be cut off, and the steel output will inevitably decrease in a short period of time; second, the demand for iron ore is huge, and it is not easy to find a stable supplier, even if it is found, the other party will inevitably increase the price, who calls Williams Mining not to sell to it, and can only buy it from here; third, the transportation is inconvenient, Australia is close to Japan, but if it is purchased from other places, the transportation cost will increase sharply, and the risk will increase!

All kinds of factors will inevitably lead to the decline of the international competitiveness of Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe Companies, resulting in great losses! At the same time, Japan's steel industry will also suffer a setback!

Henry raised his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said lightly: "Now, I want to announce the second thing." Any company that cooperates with Williams Mining Group, the price of iron ore will be much lower than the price on the market, as for how much lower, it depends on the specific cooperation situation, if I am in a good mood, I only make 1 dollar I don't care!"

Henry said as he took two steps forward, looked at the camera, and said with a smile: "Of course, if there are companies like Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe that want to cancel the order, please bring it up immediately......

When the reporters heard this, their faces were stunned.

Who would be so stupid? Just now Henry Williams said that as long as you cooperate, the price of iron ore will be much lower than the price on the market. Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe are clearly two counterexamples. Henry's announcement that he would refuse to provide any minerals to the two companies was an example to the monkeys. Whoever dares to contradict Henry will not be able to get cheap minerals just like the two companies!

Henry has abundant capital, and it doesn't matter if he makes less money from minerals. Rich and capricious, what can he do?

In order to obtain cheap minerals, which of the world's major steel companies is not willing to buy from Williams Minerals?

And about Henry's establishment of Williams Steel, naturally no one dared to gossip. When Williams Steel develops, it can make much more money than just selling minerals.

The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. Henry made it a conspiracy, focusing on long-term interests, and although other companies knew, they were helpless.

After the press conference, representatives from major steel companies around the world came to discuss cooperation.

On the same day, the stock prices of Japan's Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe Company plummeted wildly! Without Williams Mining Company, where would they find such a good partner?

At this time, Brazil's Vale and other mining companies also arrived. Henry's doing this will inevitably lead to a sharp drop in the price of iron ore and serious losses, and other mining companies will have to talk to Henry.

Thus, after Henry established the Williams Mining Company, the first meeting between the mining giants was officially held.

The world's top mining companies gathered in Melbourne, the headquarters of Williams Mining Company, with hundreds of attendees.

"Mr. Williams, the price of iron ore can't be too low, otherwise, we won't be able to make any money! You know, if you sell at a low price, we will have to lower the price!" said a representative from Vale, Brazil.

"Yes, Mr. Williams. As a mining tycoon, you can move your whole body. As long as everyone negotiates the price together, they can manipulate the mine price to make money!"

"That's right, our companies together are enough to monopolize more than 80% of the world's minerals, and we can completely manipulate prices!"

"Yes, as long as we are united, those steel companies have no choice but to buy my minerals at a high price!"

“……”

At this time, Henry suddenly realized that the mining company and the steel company were both cooperative and antagonistic. The steel company hopes to get the cheapest possible mine price, and the mining company wants to increase the mine price as much as possible, Williams Mining Group, as a giant of the global mining industry, should lead a group of little brothers to beat the steel company!

Spicy next door, first pull up the price of iron ore!!

Henry's eyes flashed with a gleam, he glanced around the crowd, and said loudly, "Well, what you said makes a lot of sense. In my opinion, we should set up a mineral organization and hold a meeting every six months to unify the prices of all kinds of minerals on the market and safeguard our interests!"

Mineral organization?

When everyone heard this, they applauded.

"Mr. Williams's proposal is very good, as we all know, there is a 'OPEC' Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries in the world, which regulates the price of oil and obtains high profits, but there is no decent organization for minerals!"

"That's right, we should also establish a mining organization to protect everyone's interests!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

“……”

Those present unanimously seconded the proposal.

The representative of Vale looked at Henry and asked, "Mr. Williams, you proposed the Minerals Organization, what do you think the name of the organization should be?"

Name?

Henry thought for a moment and said, "To put it simply, how about calling it the 'Earth Minerals Organization'?"

The name was just a code name, and when everyone saw Henry say it, they nodded in agreement.

Then, everyone began to discuss how to form a mining organization and the distribution of power, and for a while, the conference room was like a vegetable market, noisy.

It seems that for a while, the mineral organization will not be established.

Towards the end of the meeting, Henry proposed to raise the price of iron ore by about 10%, but it was unanimously agreed.

"In addition, everyone can slaughter Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe Company to their heart's content, I think, these two companies will be short of iron ore for a long time to come!"

When everyone heard this, they laughed tacitly, and they would do the same without Henry's words. Williams Mining Group sells iron ore to partners at a lower price than the market iron ore, and naturally, other mining companies will have fewer customers, just to be compensated by Nippon Steel and Nippon Steel Pipe Company!

The next few days were busy hosting Williams Mining Group partners, discussing the establishment of the Earth Minerals Organization, and establishing a full-fledged Williams Steel Company.

Henry wanted to transfer all the orders for steel to Williams Steel, but with the company's current technology and scale, it was not able to take on these orders. And the simplest ~ brutal and effective solution is to buy other steel companies. So, Henry asked people to get the information of the world's major steel companies, and after research, he decided to buy a large steel company. At this time, a name came into Henry's sight.

Mittal !!

The king of steel in the world - Mittal !!

This is a billionaire of Indian origin, he founded the Mittal Group from a small company, to 2005, rose to the world's largest steel group, and then merged with the scale of the same, and is the largest steel group in Europe, Arcelor, and then formed the steel behemoth - Arcelo Mittal!

The secret of his success has been summed up as "mergers and acquisitions" at the most opportune time, and the most astute business methods to expand the acquired companies.

It is no wonder that more and more CEOs of Fortune 500 companies in previous lives were of Indian origin.

Mittal is a genius among geniuses, and with his help, there is no concern that the steel company will not be able to develop.

At present, Mittal's current worth is not $1 billion, and the Mittal Group can only be regarded as a medium-sized group, but as long as it takes 5 years, its worth has skyrocketed, and in 2005, it was listed as the third richest person in the world by Forbes magazine in the United States with $25 billion, and Bill Gates and Warren Buffett can be ranked ahead of him.

Investing in potential stocks is a must, and Henry is not available to manage the company, so it is much easier to have a bull in charge.

For now, Williams Steel should not expand too aggressively. Williams Steel is still small, other steel companies can tolerate it, if you buy a few large steel companies, it is easy to cause a backlash and hostility from other steel companies, and "boiled frogs" is the best......
