Chapter 135: Kung Fu of Digging a Corner Five

The port, shipping, warehousing, and shipbuilding industries will be of great help to Liu Si in the future involving the grain and mineral resources industries, but how to invest the remaining 1 billion yuan is a big problem that plagues him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After thinking about it, the first investment to be excluded is shipping, although shipping is currently quite profitable, and the time required to form a shipping fleet is not short, which requires recruiting seafarers, buying routes, negotiating ports, etc., but the main thing is that there is no money!

Warehousing, shipbuilding, ports, Liu Si can't think of which investment project to give up, the three investment projects are long, the need for more funds, and for next year, Liu Si in the raw material market, grain spot futures market sweep is very powerful.

After thinking about it carefully, Liu Si decided that it would be better to engage in warehousing warehouses, shipbuilding companies, and port development together, and that 1 billion yuan would still be able to support it for a long time. Three months later, it was almost harvest time in Hong Kong.

There are three major iron miners in the world, Vale, BHP Billiton, and Rio Tinto, of course, the three major iron miners were all around 2000, because of the Internet bubble, the outbreak of a small-scale economic crisis, prompting Vale, BHP, and Rio Tinto to vigorously merge and acquire other iron miners, and then the three major iron miners controlled more than 80% of the world's iron ore trading.

In addition to vigorously buying iron ore before the price of iron ore rose in 03, Liu Si also decided to vigorously acquire small and medium-sized iron ore enterprises, and he would even be a-stirring stick to stir up the merger and acquisition of the three major enterprises.

In 2001, the two companies merged to form the Bhpbilliton Mining Group, with BHP holding 58% and Bileton holding 42%. Rio Tinto successfully acquired Australia's Northern Mining Company in 2000. Vale, on the other hand, began privatization on May 7, 1997, with a major merger of iron ore companies. At the beginning of 2000, Vale acquired not only Socoimex, but also all of the shares of Samitri Mining.

In fact, Liu Si took a look, and he couldn't interfere with the two companies BHP and Billiton, Rio Tinto and the Australian Northern Mining Company, not because he didn't want to do so, but he was sure that as long as his letter of intent to acquire was submitted to the board of directors of the four companies for approval, the Australian government would not allow it to be approved.

Only Brazil's Vale, Socoimex, and Samitri Mining should be able to intervene, why? When the economic crisis broke out in Brazil in 1999, not to mention the difficulties of the domestic economy, the main reason was that Brazil had already compromised with the International Monetary Fund during the financial crisis, and no longer restricted the shares of foreign capital enterprises in Brazil, including investment banks, securities, trusts, mining, heavy industry, and so on.

Therefore, he has decided to take down Socoimex and Samitri Mining at all costs, as for Vale, he has the heart but is powerless, one of Vale's investors is a Japanese company, how can he take it?

Around 2010, China imported about 800 million tons of high-grade iron ore every year, and 800 million tons of iron ore was calculated at a price of 20 US dollars per ton, totaling 16 billion US dollars. In fact, the total domestic need is not only 800 million tons, but at least 5 billion tons, which will require 100 billion US dollars.

Hell, even if Liu Dashao can get so much money, he still needs to establish a corresponding iron ore warehouse in China. This was urgent, so Liu Si had to start building a dedicated port and iron ore storage site.

Eating, drinking, and having fun is actually quite hard, especially for a guy like Liu Si who is a little seasick, it is even more fatal. So when he returned to shore from the sea that evening, he said that he would never take a boat again.

The next day, the weather was good, and the popular description was that it was sunny, and the sunlight shone directly through the window glass on Liu Dashao's body in pajamas, and he suddenly seemed to hear a squeaky sound, "Damn, it's so hot!" ”

Shenzhen in June is already hot, and it is naturally uncomfortable to be exposed to direct sunlight. When I woke up, I fell asleep like I was gone, and even if I closed the curtains, I couldn't sleep.

"Got up, so early?" Liu's father has lived with his son for nearly two years, and he is not unclear about his son's habits, "sleeping until he wakes up naturally, counting money until his hands cramp" is his outlook on life.

"Alas, I can't sleep."

He sighed with a look of annoyance. As soon as Liu's father saw the unbeaten expression on his son's face, he immediately cried and laughed, "It's 8 o'clock now, and I will definitely wake you up at 7 o'clock in the future." ”

"Don't, Dad, spare me! Life is all about enjoyment, why do you get up so early every day? Liu Si agreed with his own concept, and couldn't help but nod and smile, "Life is to sleep until you wake up naturally, count the money and count until your hands cramp!" ”

"Don't be poor, breakfast in the microwave." Father Liu was about to continue reading his newspaper when he suddenly thought, "What's the arrangement for today?" ”

"The first thing I did today was to go to the industrial and commercial bureau to register a new company, and the second was to visit Penguin." Liu Sitou replied without replying.

The newly registered company is also the largest holding company after the Liu family, Xinyuan Properties.

The most powerful companies in the world are the product companies, and the famous ones are Mitsui & Co., Samsung & Co., Nismian & Co., Nissho Iwai & Co., Nissho Iwai & Co.

The company has a wide range of business scope, including finance, industry, energy, food, chemical industry, etc., the company is a comprehensive enterprise, and the world's most successful company is Mitsui & Co.

In 1993, Mitsui & Co. ranked first in the world's top 500, and in the following 10 years, it also ranked in the top 10 of the top 500. Many Chinese companies dream of becoming one of the world's top 500 companies, but Mitsui & Co. has never been dismissive of the top 500 rankings. If Mitsui & Co. wants to make a name for itself, as long as the finances of its shareholding holding company are announced together with Mitsui & Co.'s products, it will be the rhythm of the world's top 500.

As the parent body of the Mitsui Foundation, Mitsui & Co. has cultivated many world-class companies, and there are a large number of top 500 companies in the Mitsui Foundation system, including Ishikawajima Harima Heavy Industries, Osaka Merchant Marine, Mitsui Shipping, Oji Paper, Onoda Cement, Sakura Bank, Miki Kogyo Electrical, Chemical Industry, Toshiba, Toray, Toyota Motor, Nippon Steel Works, Nippon Milling, Hokkaido Charcoal Mine Steamship, Mitsui Marine Fire Insurance, Mitsui Metal Mining, Mitsui Construction, Mitsui Mine, Mitsui Trust Bank, Mitsui Life Insurance, Mitsui Petrochemical Industry, Mitsui Warehouse, Mitsui Shipbuilding, Mitsui Higashi Pressure Chemical, Mitsui Fudosan Insurance, Mitsui & Co., Mitsukoshi, etc.

The establishment of Xinyuan & Co. has a role in going to Mitsui & Co., especially for Mitsui & Co.'s expansion in China.

Not to mention other industries, just one industry, the steel industry. Mitsui & Co.'s domestic conspiracies are all evil, even gnashing teeth.

Baosteel is well known, but no one knows that Baosteel is controlled by Mitsui & Co. in a sense. Moreover, Mitsui & Co. also regards Baosteel as his subordinate.

There is a regular communication and strategic coordination mechanism between Shanghai Baosteel and Mitsui & Co., similar to the general manager's meeting. Most of the iron ore raw materials necessary for Baosteel are controlled by Japanese companies such as Mitsui & Co. It can be said that the shadow of Mitsui can be seen in every link of Baosteel's capital, raw materials, manufacturing, transportation and sales. When Shanghai Baosteel and the Mitsui Foundation formed a community of interests, it was not the cooperation of "the Chinese consortium and the Japanese consortium", but the fact that "Chinese independent enterprises were integrated by the Japanese consortium".

Since the 70s, Mitsui Property has begun to deploy in China Baosteel. If Japan helps China build a steel complex like Baosteel, then Japan's steel industry, machinery manufacturing industry and related supporting industries will be driven, and it will be possible to increase Japan's GDP by 2%. The complete sets of equipment and technologies for raw material input, coking, sintering, ironmaking, steelmaking, and primary rolling of the Baosteel Phase I Project were all imported from Nippon Steel of Japan.

Nippon Steel saw the reality that China's steel production must import a large number of high-end products, and entered China's steel industry by providing production equipment and technology. Throughout the large steel mills in China, almost all of them have imported equipment and technology from Nippon Steel: almost all of Baosteel's production equipment and technology have been imported from Nippon Steel; The production equipment and technology of silicon steel, the ace product of Wuhan Iron and Steel, come from Nippon Steel; Shandong Laigang's medium-sized rolling mills, industrial equipment and electrical equipment are from Nippon Steel and Toshiba, respectively; TISCO's 1549mm hot rolling technology is provided by Nippon Steel......

However, some "unexpected" troubles have also laid the groundwork for the future difficulties of China's steel industry. For example, Japan's advanced steel production equipment could not "digest" China's low-grade iron ore, so Baosteel had to import high-grade iron ore from Australia and Brazil. In order to meet the needs of large-scale iron ore imports, Shanghai Baosteel's plan also includes ports and supporting facilities that can berth more than 100,000 tons of ore ships, and affiliated companies of the Mitsui consortium have also become beneficiaries of these projects.

However, in the iron ore price negotiations, Nippon Steel has repeatedly reached agreements at high prices, and there is the shadow of Mitsui & Co. behind it, which is suspicious. In 2002, Mitsui & Co. established a strategic alliance with Vale of Brazil, and in 2003, it invested 100 billion yen in Vale's parent company, Palepal, with a 15% stake, thus obtaining 5% indirect control of Vale in one fell swoop, and making Mitsui & Co. the world's fourth largest resource supplier of iron ore rights after Vale, BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto. This seems to indicate that Mitsui & Co. has been preparing for the layout of iron ore early

"Although the price increase has also hurt the profits of Japanese steel companies, the profits of upstream iron ore can make up for the loss of steel sales. Between Mitsui and Nippon Steel, money is equivalent to moving from the left hand to the right hand, and there is not much difference in overall benefits. A person from Mitsubishi Corporation in Beijing said.

In the future, Xinyuan will not only lay out steel, but also establish Xinyuan Energy, Xinyuan Aviation, Xinyuan Real Estate, Xinyuan Grain and Oil, Xinyuan Biotechnology, Xinyuan Materials, Xinyuan Military Industry, Xinyuan Finance and other enterprises.

He hopes that Xinyuan Properties, Alibaba, Baidu, Penguin, Meizu, vivo, Times, Delicious Snacks and other enterprises will become the standard of high-tech enterprises of Chinese enterprises in the world.
