After the three of them came down from Mount Lewis, they met a guest who surprised Tang Feng.

"Hello Tang San, I am Ichiro Tanaka, the general manager of Honda Precious Metals Industry Co., Ltd., and it is my honor to meet Tang San here this time." In front of Tang Feng, a middle-aged man with a height of about one meter seven said extremely polite words in his mouth, and gave Tang Feng a bow of almost ninety degrees.

Beside Ichiro Tanaka, there stood Richard, who was a little crying and laughing. Exxon and Sam.

Today was supposed to be the signing ceremony for Freeport McMullen Copper & Gold Company and Down's Anglo-American Group to carry out the handover procedures for these four gold mines. It's not surprising that Exxon and Sam are here at the same time, but what about this person who suddenly popped up?

However, strange or strange, Tang Feng still heard of the name Tanaka Precious Metals Company, which is known as the largest precious metal seller in the company, and one-third of the sales of gold, platinum, silver and other precious metals in the entire country are sold from this company.

Therefore, Tang Feng smiled and shook hands with this person and greeted him for a while.

"What's going on? Why did someone suddenly appear here? After Ichiro Tanaka stood aside very interestingly, Tang Feng quietly grabbed Sam and asked.

Sam smiled wryly and pointed at Richard. Exxon said angrily, "You better ask Mr. Exxon." ”

Exxon said with a hint of embarrassment on his face: "Don, you really can't blame me for this." This Ichiro Tanaka was an important customer of Barrick Gold, and in the past, the gold bars and platinum produced by these four gold mines would be bought back by Ichiro Tanaka for sale. But this time, Barrick Gold suddenly sold these four gold mines to us, and as a result, this Tanaka Ichiro chased directly to Phoenix, saying that he would let us execute the underwriting contract he had signed with Barrick Gold. But you know. These four gold mines are not to be bought by our Freeport, but by you, Mr. Tang, and I can't be the master, so I have to bring him here. ”

Sam also said with a bitter face: "Tang, I know that you have always had no good impression of me, but this Tanaka Ichiro has to meet you." In addition, he kept talking about the contract, and I was forced to have no choice, so I brought him here."

With Sam's explanation, Tang Feng finally understood why this person appeared here.

Tanaka Precious Metals Industry Co., Ltd. is a company that mainly distributes jewelry and precious metals, and to put it bluntly, it is like a domestic jewelry chain company in China, so the company's sales of precious metals such as gold and platinum are still very good every year.

After Abe came to power in 2012. The economic measures adopted to use inflation to lower the yen, coupled with the downturn in the international gold price in recent years, caused the Japanese people to start competing to buy gold to preserve its value, resulting in a sharp increase in gold sales in recent years.

Take Tanaka Precious Metals Company as an example, this company set a new high last year, selling as many as 60 tons of gold bars in a year, you can imagine how hot gold is in the world now.

In fact. Not only Ben, but since the outbreak of the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States in 2008. This was followed by the outbreak of the European debt crisis, which led to the shift of the center of gravity of the world gold market from Europe and the United States to Southeast Asia.

Among them, it is natural that this is not far behind, and has become an important gold sales market in Asia after China.

these years. The sales volume of gold in this country is more than 100 tons every year, and last year, the sales volume was directly approaching the 200 tons mark, which has exceeded the sales of various countries in Europe and approached the United States. Tanaka Precious Metals Co., Ltd. is the largest seller of precious metals.

It is also a world-famous gold-poor country, so most of the gold is imported from abroad.

Of course, large precious metals sellers like Tanaka Precious Metals generally take their goods directly from gold producers, and their means of obtaining goods are quite sharp, that is, they directly contract a mine and directly underwrite all the gold produced by this mine.

Although this method of sales is very risky, it has an excellent advantage, that is, the price of the goods is very low, sometimes even about 5% lower than the international gold price. If it weren't for the extremely complete sales channels, the average gold dealer would not dare to use this way of getting the goods.

After all, Tanaka Precious Metals is the largest marketing network in the whole year, and one-third of the sales volume of precious metals in the whole year is sold through the sales channels of Tanaka Precious Metals Company, so this company naturally does not have to worry about the risk of underwriting.

In the past, Tanaka Precious Metals Company underwrote all the output of two of the four gold mines, and the output of these two gold mines was about 60 tons a year, and the sales volume of the sales channels under the name of Tanaka Precious Metals Company in the first two years was about 40 to 50 tons, but because the price of the goods was very low, the remaining 10 tons of gold would be sold directly by Tanaka Precious Metals Company at the price of international gold prices to the other two precious metal sales companies in China.

Now, these four gold mines have been sold by Barrick Gold, and Tanaka Precious Metals Company will naturally no longer be able to get the goods at that price, and although it is not yet the end of this year, the sales of gold have exceeded the total sales of last year, so Tanaka Ichiro will come here from thousands of miles to be able to continue to get the goods at the previous price.

In fact, Tang Feng is not all disgusted with himself, after all, some of his own quality is still relatively high, so Tang Feng will not beat all of him to death with a stick. But people like Abe and Koizumi, Tang Feng still hates them.

This Ichiro Tanaka has a good impression of Tang Feng, at least his professionalism is worth learning.

This is Nevada, and it's a gold mining area where birds don't poop and chickens don't lay eggs, and it's really hard for a pampered general manager to be able to stay in this kind of place for days.

However, now Tang Feng has no heart to pay attention to Ichiro Tanaka, after all, there will be a handover ceremony between Tang's Anglo-American Group and Freeport Company on these four gold mines in a while. Although Tang Feng doesn't have to sign in person, as a big boss, Tang Feng can't show too little attention.

The signing ceremony and everything have been prepared a long time ago, so after going through this whole process according to the procedure, Tang Feng can be regarded as able to find time to have a good chat with Ichiro Tanaka. (To be continued.) )
