Chapter 244: Austo prepares to take off
The temporary place where the trio stayed was the hotel. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After resting for a while, Shen Bing had already arranged a meeting between Wang Hao and the owner of the Aotuo mine.
"Hello, I'm Donald!"
Donald looked at Wang Hao curiously, he had long known that it was a young Chinese who was going to buy his mine, but he didn't expect Wang Hao to be younger than he thought, which made him feel more relieved.
His Austo Mining Company is now in the red, because the shutdown has been suspended for more than three months, many workers in the mine have lost patience to wait, have left the company, if it is an experienced investor, will definitely not choose to buy his company!!
His offer was 50 million Australian dollars, although it was finally cut to 40 million Australian dollars, but this has made him very satisfied, 40 million Australian dollars is equivalent to more than 200 million Chinese dollars, even if the famous Chinese in Australia can invest 200 million in a semi-bankrupt mineral at once, it is absolutely difficult to find a second person.
So Donald didn't dare to have any disrespect for Wang Hao.
Wang Hao smiled slightly, he could see Donald's nervousness.
After shaking hands, there was Shen Bing's translation, and Wang Hao's English was also passable, and the communication between the two sides could still proceed normally.
"Mr. Donald, before I officially sign the contract, I want to go to your mine and see for myself, I guess that's fine, right!?" Wang Hao said.
"No problem, no problem, it's as it should be! When are you going to see it? Donald said.
"It's better now, I'm not here for tourism, it's better to get everything done as soon as possible!" Wang Hao said.
"Well...... is it all going to go? If there are fewer people going, I can fly my private jet over, and if I have to go, I can only rent one plane! Donald asked.
Shen Bing translated the words into Chinese and added: "Wang, because Australia is vast and sparsely populated, many places are very desolate, so airplanes are the main long-distance transportation, and it is very convenient to rent planes here. ”
Wang Hao nodded, before he came, he also had a preliminary understanding of Australia, so Shen Bing said this, he didn't feel very strange.
Li Qian spoke at this time: "Wang Hao, I hope that no matter where we go, we can be together." ”
When Shen Bing saw Li Qian say this, he immediately persuaded: "Sister Qian, you may not have been to the mine, it is really far from what you imagined, the air is much drier and hotter than here, it is best for you to stay in the hotel and wait for Wang Hao to come back!" ”
Li Qian shook her head and said, "I know, although Aotuo is not far from us, but it has a tropical desert climate, right, I have learned about this from the Internet and books, and I am ready to prepare." ”
Wang Hao smiled and said: "Lawyer Shen, I also think it's good to act together, after all, when you are together, you can take care of each other, isn't it!" ”
"Okay!" Shen Bing translated Wang Hao's meaning to Donald.
“OK!! I immediately made a phone call to rent a plane, got the pilot ready, and when we got there, we could take off immediately! Donald said.
Next, things went well.
Wang Hao, Li Qian, Shen Bing, Xiaomei, and Donald got on a helicopter together, and Shen Bing's assistant Coustin stayed in Perth.
Austo Mining
Although it is a mining company worth 200 million yuan, it does not have tall buildings.
More than a dozen low-rise houses, a small two-story villa that looks like it needs to be seen, and a large number of various open-air excavation machinery, as well as transport vehicles, and a dormitory area where there are almost no human figures.
That's all there is to Aotuo Mining.
Here, mining is not difficult, it can even be said to be a very simple thing!!
But the premise is to sell the mined mine and sell it for a good price!!
There are a lot of factors that go into selling it.
Wang Hao now finally knows the real reason why Donald can't do it.
Being suppressed by large corporations is the apparent reason!
The point is that such small companies have to be suppressed by large ones.
The railways and ports here are all privately owned by large companies, and small companies that want to transport iron ore from the desert to the sea have to bow their heads and rent railways and trains from large companies!
And that's because the government is now taking special care of small companies.
In the past, large companies could simply refuse to provide services to small companies for any reason!
Want to get the mine out?
Yes, build your own railway and build a port!
Although it is now possible to pay money to use the railways and vehicles of large companies, but in terms of timing and many conveniences, the delivery efficiency and cost of small companies can no longer compete with large companies, unless they are sold at a lower price, no one is willing to buy iron ore from small mining companies!
In addition to the problem of transportation, there is also the issue of energy.
It's a remote mining area, and most of the small-scale mines rely on diesel engines to generate their own electricity, which is also brought in from outside.
Finally, there is another problem, that is, the problem of workers, the wages of miners in Australia are very high compared to domestic workers, and the state has many measures to protect these workers, so mine owners should not think about any exploitation, and it is the right way to sell the mine at a good price with peace of mind.
In Donald's view, these problems are all big problems that cannot be solved, but Wang Hao smiled.
If he came to open the mine, his iron ore would not have to be shipped out at all!
In terms of energy, he will no longer use diesel engines to generate electricity!
As for the worker, he needs a few truck drivers at most to help him deliver the high-tech products he produces to the port.
"Boss Wang, if the transaction is successful, I can give you my private jet, anyway, after the matter here is over, that plane will not be of much use to me." Donald Road.
Of course, Wang Hao has no opinion.
"Sign!"
Wang Hao did not hesitate to sign his name on several contracts and bought the entire Aotuo Mining.
The assets of Alto Mining now include this 40 square kilometre open pit mine, as well as the accommodation built on the edge of the mine, all the current machinery, and of course, the most valuable thing is the mining rights!
Spend 200 million yuan to buy the permanent mining rights of this mine!!
Now this 40 square kilometers of mining area is completely Wang Hao's private property, and he can do whatever he wants!
In addition to this mining area, in Port Hedland, Aotuo also owns a property and an open-air warehouse.
After the transaction was completed, Donald happily shook hands with Wang Hao and said: "Boss Wang, now this is yours, I hope you can take Aotuo to glory!" ”
Wang Hao said: "Of course, I already have a complete plan, but what you will see is no longer a simple mining company, but a high-tech mining company!" ”
"I wish you success!" Donald blessed, paused, and said, "By the way, there are still five miners and two truck drivers in the company, and I hope you can continue to use them!" ”
