When he heard that Kurt was about to put up a fair tender for iron ore projects on both sides of the Ashburton River, Damu was furious.

If you want to take this way, why should Lao Tzu give you so many benefits, in addition to giving you money to campaign, but also giving you a way to get the equity of Rio Tinto, and what you get is such an ending that makes people's mood fall to the freezing point.

Da Mu Guang didn't think about this problem from Richard Cote's point of view, if Kurt could withstand it, he wouldn't have made this decision, now he can't stand it, as the saying goes, "you can't have both fish and bear's paws", now Kurt has to choose one of the two, besides, Kurt also has a reason, who the told you Da Mu Guang to leave for so long without showing up to discuss, Lao Tzu got the benefits, you didn't get the benefits, if there were no benefits, would you plan to take the risk of giving you such a fat project at such a low price.

In fact, there are not many things in Japan that need to be handled by Mitsuru Ogi, and he is not needed to coordinate the persecution of Nippon Steel, Hikaru Tsuchimitsu will solve this problem, and the important reason why Mitsuki did not rush back to Australia soon is that he wants to raise funds.

He has to find funds from within the chaebol, especially from Mitsui Bank, which has abundant cash, and explains the situation to Sumitomo Bank, his previous intended partner, hoping that they can also extend a hand and hand over tens of billions of dollars of funds to him.

Previously, when Da Mu Guang was in Australia, he communicated with the country by telephone, and the verbal reply he got at that time was "no question", but now the situation has changed, due to the failure of China Future Metallurgical Group and a large number of unknown funds, the domestic financial market is experiencing a small earthquake, and major enterprises have lost a lot.

As the core of the consortium, the leaders will take a more cautious approach, once the bank has a problem, then the sky of the entire consortium will be a big hole, no one can afford and can not afford it, and Mitsui & Co. is not the only company that needs money.

Therefore, the news that Da Mu Guang got was to ask him to wait, and then transfer money to him after the domestic financial market stabilized, and now Da Mu Guang does not have enough money in his hands, and of course he cannot return to Australia.

Da Muguang had to wait, but Ouyang Zhenhua and they didn't wait, they put pressure on Kurt one by one, constantly creating pressure on him, if it was in normal times, Kurt could let it go, no matter how much, but now is the election time, he doesn't have so much time, everyone wants to get both fish and bear's paws, but if Kurt delays, maybe he will be empty-handed.

Whether it's cramming for a while, or catching ducks on the shelves, now Da Mu Guang can only stiffen his neck.

In order to increase the odds of winning, Damu Guang decided to cut his love, he planned to give up the controlling stake, hoping that Rio Tinto could make a little more money, which is a little difficult for Rio Tinto, this is a big company, but if he wants to come up with tens of billions of funds at once, they also can't come up with it.

In fact, as long as it is a tender at this time, Ouyang Zhenhua and they can be said to have won, and it is self-evident who will win the game between those who are not short of money and those who are short of money, and they can even lower the price and save a lot of money.

After both sides paid a deposit of $500 million, the large-scale resource project tender began in late October.

Because the project is so large, it has attracted the attention of many local Australian media and many large companies in the world, and the Australian political scene has almost been involved, and Lawrence came to Perth in person.

On the one hand, Lawrence wants to show his support for Ouyang Zhenhua and them, and on the other hand, if this is handled well, it will also add points to his image and wisdom, which can show his concern for the industrial economy, and the presence of so many reporters will bring a positive effect to his election.

The bidding was arranged at the hotel where Chen Kangjie and his family were staying, and before entering the venue, Lawrence gave a brief interview to more than a dozen reporters.

"Mr. Lawrence, how can you still have time for business at such a critical time in the election campaign. ”。

"I care about this project, this is the same as everyone, and I don't completely see this project as a business transaction, if it works well, this is actually a livelihood project, because it can bring tax revenue to the government, increase people's employment, and improve our important role in the change of the world economic structure, this has nothing to do with whether I am a political candidate, even if I am just an ordinary citizen, I will also care, our country is a large resource country, how to use it to enhance our national strength and people's happiness, I have always paid attention, although this project is in Western Australia, but it is also in our territory, and I have a very close relationship,,,,,。 Lawrence expressed his opinion from the height of a leader.

"Mr. Lawrence, which side are you on. ”。

"Hehe, as long as there are powerful investors, as long as it is beneficial to our economic development and the improvement of people's livelihood, we welcome it, and there is no question of supporting one party. Speaking of which, Lawrence changed his words, " However, since you asked, then I would like to talk about my personal understanding, from a practical point of view, I think we should have diversified investment, our economic structure should also be diversified, agriculture, industry, and service industries should be vigorously developed, and diplomatically, we should also diversify, and while continuing to maintain close exchanges and trust with traditional allies, we should also develop friendly relations with neighboring countries in the region,,,,, 。 Lawrence literally treated this place as a campaign site.

It seems that Lawrence didn't say anything clear, and he didn't say anything, and he even talked about the diplomatic policy he thought he should adhere to, but the implication was already a taste of what people could understand, as long as they savored his words, they knew that he supported BHP Billiton and Hongyuan Investment.

Since BHP Billiton is a major shareholder and a local local enterprise, the bidding is handed over to them to do specifically, Ouyang Zhenhua only needs to pay money, and Da Mu Guang and their side can only be led by Mitsui & Co. because Rio Tinto can't resist the big head, even last night, Da Mu Guangdu is still asking for help in Japan, hoping to get some more funds.

In advance, Ouyang Zhenhua learned from Han Geng that the funds raised by Damu Light were only 20 billion US dollars, and more funds had been successfully dragged by him in Japan, so even with the strength of Rio Tinto, the money they can get now is only 30 billion at most, and it will not be more, and Ouyang Zhenhua and their side, Ouyang Zhenhua alone has already gathered 4oo US dollars in Australia.

In order not to embarrass the numbers too much, but also to please a good omen, Hongyuan Investment and BHP Billiton jointly quoted a price of 39.8 billion US dollars, which is a full 8.8 billion US dollars higher than the 3.1 billion US dollars of Mitsui & Co. and Rio Tinto's offer, and successfully obtained the mining rights of iron ore on both sides of the Ashburton River, and Mitsui & Co. and Rio Tinto only had $19.5 billion in cash.

Of course, of so many funds, most of them were taken out by Ouyang Zhenhua, BHP Billiton only took a few, and a considerable part was lent to them.

On the surface, Ouyang Zhenhua didn't take much advantage, but BHP Billiton picked up a big pie.

In fact, it is not, first, that is, Chen Kangjie finally stood on a foot in the Australian iron ore project, in addition to bringing huge profits in the near future, it can also play a good role in calming the huge losses suffered by many domestic iron and steel companies in the future, and indirectly inhibit the rise in domestic prices.

After entering the 21st century, the country will usher in a larger period of price rise, which is affected by many internal factors, the sharp rise in international commodity trading prices is also closely related, especially the prices of key strategic commodities such as iron ore and oil.

Chen Kangjie doesn't care too much about how much those big enterprises have lost, especially those large state-owned groups with deep pockets, who usually show off their might, and it is not a big deal to lose some face in front of foreigners, but Chen Kangjie has to take into account that so many people whose incomes are not high, every 1 percent increase in prices means that their living standards will drop by 1 percent, and as long as there is a change, the most injured are the people at the bottom.

Chen Kangjie can't change the macro policy, the tax policy and the monetary policy are not in his hands, he can only hope that he can make some small changes through his own meager strength, and he doesn't want the kind of cry in his memory that "income can't rise prices" to appear again.

Lending money to BHP Billiton, this is a win-win situation, BHP Billiton gets a big cake, and Ouyang Zhenhua can play a greater role in the company's operation as a creditor in the future, since he BHP Billiton owes so much money, then he has to give up a part of the influence, which is natural.

This is the first time that a Chinese enterprise has made such a large-scale investment overseas, which has a strong indicator significance, and after this step has been successfully stepped out, it has opened the door for Chinese enterprises to expand their territory around the world.

It's just that this time, due to the turmoil and persecution, Ouyang Zhenhua and the others offended the big Japanese conglomerates, and finally turned into irreconcilable contradictions.
