Chapter Twenty-Six: The Chaebols "Kneel and Beg for a Monthly Pass"

[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site.]

Rare earth is not only a rare metal in the world, but also an element of new materials and new technologies that turn stones into gold, and it is also a strategic resource for scientific and technological competition.

Before the 70s, the production and application of rare earths were state secrets. At that time, the Japanese wanted to buy the slag of Baotou Steel at a high price, and Premier Zhou ordered that no matter how much money was given, it could not be sold!

It can be seen that the national leaders at that time had great foresight and long-term strategic vision. After the reform and opening up, the economy has been invigorated, but the central government's control over the local areas has also weakened a lot.

As long as you make money, you are an uncle, it doesn't matter if you pollute the environment, anyway, the bosses are going to immigrate to Australia and New Zealand, how good are the natural conditions there?

Every year, you only need to come back to see the operation of the factory and collect the accounts. What pollution is in the country, and what does it have to do with him?

There is also a phenomenon of private mining in rare earth mining areas, but the scale is still relatively small, if left unchecked for a few more years, it can really make them a climate, and it will be difficult to control the situation of illegal mining and illegal mining.

Fan Wuxian made a move at this time, just to take advantage of the fact that the slogan of national retreat and democratic advancement has not been officially shouted, first choke the throat of the rare earth industry, grasp the initiative, and then how to knead the Japanese, it is a matter of one sentence.

\\\\\\But it didn't take long for Wu Zhi Xiaoji to call from Japan, saying that he was entrusted by someone and someone wanted to make an appointment with Fan Wuxi.

"A subsidiary of the Mitsubishi chaebol, a vice president of Mitsubishi Materials, is called Iwaki Junji." Wu Zhi replied.

"You're not mistaken, are you?" Fan Wuxi was very curious, how could Wu Zhi Xiaoji make a transatlantic call to himself for such a trivial matter.

"The vice president of a small company also wants to have a conversation with me on an equal footing? And you want me to go to Japan? ”

"This Iwakijun is very promising." Wu Zhi Xiaoji explained to Fan Wuji,

"His ancestor is Yataro Iwaki, the founder of the Mitsubishi chaebol." Oh, after listening to Wu Zhi's explanation, Fan Wuxian figured out that although this Iwaki Jun is a vice president, his status in the Mitsubishi chaebol is not low, and he is currently limited to the issue of age.

He did not enter the top management of the head office, but his influence was very large, and he was treated as the next successor of the Mitsubishi chaebol.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, which everyone usually hears a lot, is the company that Jackie Chan often endorses car advertisements for them, and it sounds like it produces tractors and cars, but in fact they produce everything from aircraft, tanks, warships, missiles, and satellites.

Even they produce nuclear power plants and are out-and-out military-industrial enterprises.

Mitsubishi zaibatsu was the number one contributor to Japan's victory in the First Sino-Japanese War, when Mitsubishi's head of the family, Yahisa Iwasaki, and the leading figures in Japan's financial circles at that time initiated the establishment of the Newspaper Diet to promote the patriotic spirit of loyalty to the monarch to the people through the Japanese media.

He demanded that all the people donate everything for the victory over China, actively supported the Japanese government's war against China, raised military funds, and issued 80 million yen of military bonds for the Japanese government, which was a staggering figure given the economic situation of Japan at that time.

At that time, the Mitsubishi chaebol also handed over the steamship of its own Nippon Yusen Shipping Company to the government, which was responsible for transporting troops and delivering grain.

When the Japanese army attacked Weihai, Mitsubishi's ships were responsible for reconnoitring the deployment of the Qing army in Weihai and helping the Japanese army successfully capture Weihai.

After the Japanese army occupied Weihai. Bombarded the imperial Beiyang fleet with artillery and wiped it out. After the war, Ito, a senior admiral of the Japanese Navy, deliberately removed the rudder of the Dingyuan, the main battleship of the Qing army, as a trophy and gave it to the Mitsubishi chaebol as a trophy.

Before and during World War II, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries was also the main force of Japanese weapons manufacturing, building four aircraft carriers for the Japanese Navy.

From the largest battleship in the world at that time, the Musashi. \\\\\ to the most advanced Zero fighters, as well as a variety of heavy and micro tanks, infantry fighting vehicles.

It can be said that arms products cover land, sea and air. During the war, nearly 20,000 aircraft of various types and nearly 5,000 tanks and armored vehicles were produced, which were used in the war of aggression against China.

After the end of World War II. According to Japan's pacifist constitution, Japan is not allowed to have an army, so naturally there should be no military industrial enterprises, but due to the efforts of the Japanese and the connivance of the United States, Japan has always kept a low profile in handling military industrial enterprises, and in addition, its military industrial enterprises also produce civilian products, so many people do not know that a certain Japanese-made electrical appliances and machinery that they usually use may be produced by Japanese military industrial enterprises.

At this moment, Zifan Wuxi's heart suddenly brightened, and Yan Qijun wanted to see himself at this time, just because he had in fact controlled the domestic rare earth resources, and it would not work for him to go astray, so if he wanted to solve the problem, he could only achieve his goal by avoiding talking to himself in person.

"However, I don't have any plans to go to Japan anytime soon." Fan Wuxi also got up at this time, and said with a pinched tone to Wuzhi Xiaoji,

"You just spread my word and say that it's okay to talk about it, let him come to China, I've been unwell lately, and I can't have a bumpy journey. **.coM***" Of course, Wu Zhi Xiaoji has no opinion on Fan Wuxi's words, he is just a microphone, anyway, this time Yan Qijun let him pass the word, and it also gave him a lot of benefits.

This kind of thing Fan Wuxi has already explained to him, although the benefits are received, the more the better, as for whether the thing can be done, that is two said, it is done, it is his Wuzhi Xiaoji's face, it can't be done, you are Yan Qijun The benefits are too little.

So Wu Zhi Xiaoji conveyed Fan Wuxi's meaning to Yan Qijun, which made Yan Qijun feel very dissatisfied, he had not met an opponent who needed to take the initiative to come to the door on his own initiative for a long time.

As for the Chinese government's sudden order to suspend production and processing enterprises in rare earth mining areas, a large amount of public opinion has been created in China's domestic media, and it is impossible that no news has been received abroad.

In fact, Iwakijun also has his own intelligence sources in Chinese mainland, knowing that this time things are not easy to handle, the government side he has already found someone to dredge, the result is that the answer is powerless, as for the private side he sent people to bribe the responsible person of the production enterprise, but caused a lot of trouble, and the two lines he had managed to build were also cut.

This made him feel very confused, and when he understood that Fan Wuxi was now in control of rare earth resources, he found a small machine in Wuzhi that had something to do with Fan Wuxi, and asked him to speak on his behalf, but he received such a reply, Fan Wuxi actually said that he was not feeling well, and he couldn't travel bumpy, obviously he had a clear attitude, if he wanted to talk about things, come to China.

Starting (5) 20.0 "Wu Zhijun, are you still Japanese?" Don't you know how important rare earths are to our greater Japan?! "Yan Qijun has a domineering attitude towards Wu Zhixiaoji, a nouveau riche.

However, Wu Zhi Xiaoji is not at their kneading now, he said vividly,

"You can see clearly, I am now an American citizen, and I have nothing to do with Japan to work for Chinese entrepreneurs." Although Iwakijun was very annoyed, he didn't dare to provoke Wu Zhixiao anymore, after all, now that people have become Americans, and the U.S. government's protection of American citizens can simply move God, so he had to find another way.

Those Chinese, don't they take the initiative to betray national interests as long as they have a little sweetness?

Iwakijun felt a little puzzled, but he also knew that the people who controlled all the rare earth resources in the country were not idle people, and they needed to be treated carefully.

However, he did not want to go to China to negotiate in person, so it would be impossible for him to take the initiative in the negotiations.

So he pondered it for a while and came up with a countermeasure. On this day, Fan Wuxian was continuing to consolidate the treatment for the old man, and suddenly received a call from Shanghai, it was Xia Donghai who called, saying that he had received a notice from the city to let him participate in a Sino-Japanese youth friendly exchange activity organized by a Sino-Japanese friendship association held in Osaka, Japan.

"Is there a mistake?!" Fan Wuxi asked in some surprise,

"Sino-Japanese friendship, what does it matter to me?" Xia Donghai replied on the phone,

"I'm also confused, but the invitation letter issued by the city is indeed clearly written, that is, Mr. Fan Wuxian is invited to participate, and I wonder how they know that you are the actual person in charge of our company?!" Fan Wuxian thought about it for a while, and didn't figure out what was going on, but Shanghai and Osaka, Japan, are sister cities, he knows about this, there are commemorative activities every year, and he also knows this, but what does this have to do with him?

So he asked,

"Is it engaging in corporate negotiations to solicit sponsorship? In that case, just give them some money and send it away, I won't go to Japan. ”

"Okay then." Xia Donghai agreed on the phone.

"Xiao Fan's business is busy, did you treat my old man and delay you a lot of big things?" The old man's spirit was much better, and when he saw Fan Wuxian answering the phone, he joked with a smile.

Recently, the old man has been cultivating in the mountains, Fan Wuxian came to him every now and then for acupuncture treatment, the relationship between the two is also very harmonious, and it is also very casual, and there are jokes with each other, which makes others feel a little hot, after all, where do ordinary people have this kind of treatment?

As for the old man's Parkinson's disease, it has also been greatly improved, the mutation of the black body has been improved, most of them have recovered, and the remaining little is not in the way, which is manifested in the external characteristics, that is, the whole person's actions are much faster, his hands and feet are not shaking, and his thinking is also a lot more active.

Seeing this change, the experts who were scolded as stupid by Fan Wuxian were a little stunned, it turned out that they still thought that if Fan Wuxian couldn't cure the old man's disease, they would always have to rely on them at that time, but the facts made them feel extremely surprised, but several of them were marginalized, and even the staff loved to ignore them when they saw them, not to mention how awkward it was.

The old man also deliberately wrote a few words to Fan Wuxian with a pencil,

"Chinese medicine, the treasure of the country." Today's second shift was delivered to *************
