Chapter 568: I Join

Conrad's words are really good, opening an iron mine is not a joke, an iron mine from the exploration to the start of mining, the initial investment is definitely hundreds of millions of dollars, such a huge investment if it does not achieve results in a short period of time, it will definitely drag down a large mining company.

Vale is a one-handed shield in Brazil, and if he is allowed to envelop some other iron ore mine owners, then once a relationship network is formed, then this relationship network will play an incredible role in some things, Tang Feng thought to himself, even if it is a mine owner who is not short of money like himself, he will definitely bow down in the face of this relationship network.

Unlike the United States, Canada and Australia, Brazil is the largest economy in South America, the seventh largest economy in the world, and the BRICS country, but this country has not yet touched the threshold of developed countries. This is still a country that belongs to the category of developing countries, and the laws are not very sound. Dirt, rot. Failure and inaction are so serious that in such countries, the power of money and connections often trumps the law. It's really not good to meat in this country. It's not uncommon for the body to wipe out some people.

Here, if a sitting tiger like Vale is desperately trying to fight against you, it will be really difficult for ordinary people to deal with. That's why Glencore had to take such a complicated detour to enter Brazil's iron mining industry.

In Brazil's iron mining, Vale is a well-deserved leader, even international mining giants such as Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton have to be honest in Brazil, and whether it is Rio Tinto or BHP Billiton, the iron ore business in Brazil can only be said to have just gained a foothold.

But. Although Brazil's iron ore reserves are not as large as Australia's, the quality of Brazil's iron ore is far better than Australia's, so Brazil's treasure land has always been coveted by mining giants such as Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton.

And the reason why Anglo American was able to obtain such an excellent iron ore project as Minas Rio Tinto in Brazil is not that Anglo American has a big face. Vale's willingness to let Anglo American enter the Brazilian iron ore market is really because Anglo American took some unknown means when it obtained the Minas Rio Tinto iron ore project, and united with Glencore, taking advantage of Vale's shortage of funds, to smash the Minas Rio Tinto iron ore mine with euros and pounds in one fell swoop.

By the time Vale reacted, the project had already been cooked from raw rice, and Vale, no matter how capable it was, could not overturn the fact that it had already become a ready-made. As a result, Vale could only pinch its nose and admit this fact.

But this incident also prompted Vale and MBR to wake up the Brazilian iron ore giants, who used to defend against mining giants such as Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton, but where did they think that they were exploited by Anglo American, and then, Vale could only watch the funds from Europe quietly pry open the Brazilian iron mining industry.

If it weren't for Tang Feng's unreasonable and unreasonable forcible acquisition of Anglo American, then wait until the time is right. Glencore and Rio Tinto merged, when Anglo American transferred its stake in the Minas Rio Tinto project. Then a behemoth much larger than Vale will carry a huge amount of money to shock the Brazilian iron mining industry in a very short period of time, and then those capital forces from Europe can take the opportunity to absorb the shares of various iron ore companies in Brazil, and even swallow Vale in one go.

In these years, you are playing with capital, and you have capital. Then you have everything. Compared with those capital powers in Europe, Brazil is undoubtedly far behind.

The United States, the world's largest economy, was almost defeated by the Europeans' butcher's knife in the economic war that broke out suddenly in the previous two months, let alone a developing Brazil.

But fortunately, Tang Feng's shot. Let the Europeans make a plan for a long time and die directly. Tang's forcible acquisition of Anglo American was like a stroke of genius, which not only blinded the Europeans directly, but also gave hope to the anxious Brazilians.

Rather than letting the old aristocrats in Europe enter the Brazilian iron mining industry, the group of Brazilian landholders, led by Vale, are more willing to let Tang Feng join this circle. After all, Tang Feng is of Chinese descent and an American citizen, so his identity is innately easy to be accepted by Brazilians.

It was because of this that Conrad and Pedro decided to pull Tang Feng into this circle as well. Since you don't want to be an enemy with Tang Feng, it's best to make Tang Feng a person in this circle.

For Tang Feng, a newly rising mining upstart, both Conrad and Pedro are very careful, because this young man is too fierce, and his shots are irregular, and he has no scruples, and in the two years since this young man's debut, I have not heard of this young man suffering in anyone's hands.

Although when he was just starting out, BHP Billiton seemed to give the young man a dismount, but now it seems that the so-called "dismount" of BHP Billiton at the beginning is simply a joke, the young man hit back, and immediately tossed BHP Billiton almost fell apart, and now the Kajabi precious metal complex is a BHP Billiton nightmare that will never go away.

Therefore, you must not be an enemy of this young man, because neither Conrad nor Pedro knows whether this young man named Tang Feng will make a move on the iron ore in Brazil.

However, what reassures Conrad and Pedro is that this young man does not seem to be so interested in base metals, especially ferrous metals.

Therefore, Tang Feng joined Anglo American this time, and Conrad and Pedro were ready to pull this young man into the circle and test what this young man thought.

What made the two old men happier was what Tang Feng said next: "Okay, Mr. Conrad and Mr. Pedro, although I am not very interested in ferrous metal mines, I think what you said is very reasonable, so I agree to join this alliance." But I have some other ideas, I wonder if you can give me some support? (To be continued.) )
