Fan Wuxian looked around at everyone, smiled and said, "I won't hide it from you, I did plan to build an iron ore production company in Western Australia with full investment, but then something happened to me, so it disrupted my plan." ”

Everyone, including Governor Hobbit, listened intently, hoping to hear any reasonable explanation from the super-rich man.

"Everyone knows that I am a Chinese." Fan Wuxian said to everyone, "Everyone should also know that China is currently engaged in reform and opening up, and is actively introducing foreign capital for development. ”

"We've heard of that." Governor Hobbit nodded yes.

China's development, in recent years has also attracted worldwide attention, Australia's pace of entering the Chinese market, is obviously a bit conservative, due to policy factors, and Australia away from Chinese mainland, the two sides are not closely contacted, so the conflict of interest between the two sides is not large.

In recent years, due to the Australian government's commitment to its own domestic economic reform and active immigration policy, many Chinese students have begun to develop in Australia, and the two sides have gradually gained more contact and understanding of each other.

It should be said that as a pure shift. The Australian government's attitude towards immigrants is relatively relaxed, so once you become an immigrant, you can enjoy various preferential treatment provided by the government for citizens, which has also attracted many people, including Chinese, to move to Australia.

However, because the welfare package of citizens is too high. Recently, the Howard government began to cut this part of the budget, and formulated a series of policies to distinguish between the treatment of citizens and immigrants, in an attempt to reduce the burden, so that the economy can go on a healthy development channel and provide more development funds.

Nonetheless, the Chinese who moved to Australia. There are still a lot of people, a large part of them are the second generation of children who made a fortune in Chinese mainland, the ancestors who got rich in advance, hope that their children can receive Western education, and learn some modern management experience, and then return to China to take care of the domestic company business, so the number of rich luxury children here is still a lot, sometimes at night, you can see a lot of expensive sports cars on the road, most of them are the children of these Chinese.

Therefore, in the eyes of the hobbit, the Chinese are relatively rich, so . As the successor of the previous governor, he did not experience the previous cooperation process, and he didn't know if there was any insider in it, let alone whether the previous governor had any conditions exchanged with Fan Wuxi, so he was in a hurry to see Fan Wuxian now, just to find out about this matter.

After all, the amount of investment in WA is not small. If the entire company is to operate, it will require at least $2 billion or more to operate, which is not a small amount. What's more noteworthy is that once the mine is operational, the benefits are also very considerable.

Despite the production capacity of the iron ore development company of the Fan Investment Group. It's still relatively low, but Hobbit has reason to believe that as long as it gains huge market demand, Fan's production capacity can be increased rapidly.

Moreover, there is no disease from Fan. Judging from the fact that the company built its own transportation railways and ports to go to sea, their investment plans are relatively long-term and should be trustworthy, but in any case, he also needs to contact Fan Wuxian himself to implement this matter.

After Fan Wuxian understood Hobbit's concerns, he had a plan and explained to them, "China's domestic demand for capital is very large, and various industries in various places are on the eve of an outbreak, so a large amount of external funds are needed to promote, so the thirst for introducing foreign capital to develop the economy is very great!" In many places, when examining the political achievements of local officials, it is important to see how much the other party has contributed to attracting investment. Coincidentally, my father was one of the important leaders in China, and the Jiangnan Province he was responsible for administering had a population of more than 70 million people, and a small area of more than 300,000 square kilometers. As such a local leader, he must make a certain contribution to the work of attracting investment in the local area. ”

Hearing him say this, everyone was surprised, although many people knew that Fan Wuxi's wealth was amazing, but they didn't expect that his father was such a big official, actually managing a population of more than 70 million, as for Australia's own population, it was only 20 million.

Seeing that everyone was more moved, Fan Wuxian continued, "In this case, some of my investment behaviors must consider whether there is a conflict with my father's political achievements, and in the case of a large amount of money for development in China, if I invest too much overseas, many forces will have very big objections, which is extremely unfavorable to my father's development in China, so I have to control the amount of investment overseas, reduce this number as much as possible, and solve this problem through other channels." ”

After hearing him say this, Hobbit felt that it was a bit similar to when he was in charge of Western Australia, and he also hoped to bring in development funds to support the development of Greece and Australia as much as possible, rather than wanting the locals to invest in other provinces when they had money.

But there is another point that Hobbit finds a little difficult to understand, "Then why are you investing so much money in Indonesia?" Could it be that the domestic government has no objection to this matter? You must know that your investment in Indonesia is far more than ten times that of your investment in Western Australia. ”

Fan Wuxian had long expected that he would have such a question, so he said with some hesitation, "Indonesian affairs, some inside stories are not suitable to be revealed, it is not just a business activity, I say this, can Mr. Hobbit understand?" ”

The red-nosed old man Hobbit listened to Fan Wuxi's words, and his mind suddenly circled, and immediately thought of the problem, or did the Chinese government have a tacit understanding with Fan Wuxi, and the investment in Indonesia is not only an economic factor, but also a political demand? Of course, this is really not a good thing to ask.

So the old man nodded and smiled, "Then I understand, because it is a bit abrupt to invite Mr. Fan to come to Sydney, but does Mr. Fan have any further financing plans?" Now that the stock market is flat, Fan's influence in Australia before, I am worried that the listing and financing may not be satisfactory. ”

Fan Wuxian waved his hand and said, "I am not worried about this matter, I believe that local investors in Australia are still very discerning, and I will also make a special report on this issue, so that investors can more easily understand how we operate, so as to enhance their confidence." Another point is that if the market financing is not satisfactory, in the end I will still invest enough money to develop the iron ore business in Western Australia, and this general direction will not change. ”

The old man Hobbit was waiting for Fan Wuxi's words, and when he heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Our Western Australian government has no doubt about the enthusiasm of Fan's Investment Group for the development of iron ore resources in Western Australia, as the host, we will also try our best to provide some convenient conditions for the development of investors, please rest assured Mr. Fan." ”

After that, the two sides held friendly talks on government-enterprise cooperation, and both sides felt that the sincerity of the other side was great, and they also conducted in-depth consultations on some policy support, and made historic progress, far more than the convenience conditions given by the previous state government.

After these people left, Fan Wuxian heard his subordinates report that Hobbit is now Howard's opposition, so he hopes to make some amazing things in Western Australia, and have a chance to win the next Australian Prime Minister.

Fan Wuxian smiled and said, "The old man looks quite honest, and his ambition is not small." It's not enough, it's a good thing to be ambitious, if we help him, maybe we can really get an Australian prime minister! ”

However, Fan Wuxian also knows very well that without major changes, Howard's position in Australia is difficult to shake, after all, the economic reform he advocated is undoubtedly correct for the current Australia, just like China's economic reform, this matter always needs a wise leader to promote, and he is now the expectation of Australians.

Of course, if there is a replacement, I believe that Australians may not have the opportunity to miss the old so much.

Although the red-nosed old man Hobbit is not good-looking, if he can take the development of Western Australia to a higher level and create a dazzling political performance, I believe that voters will also want to change to a new face of the leader.

After all, engaging in economic reform is not necessarily what many people like, especially on the premise of touching their own interests, the degree of dislike will gradually deepen, and the attitude towards Howard will change from support to opposition.

In any case, Hobbit still has a certain chance to take the position, and the most critical question is whether Fan's investment in Western Australia can really give him the political capital to make a comeback.

After all, the current international demand for iron ore is not very hot, and the Chinese mainland market, as the largest demand for iron ore in the future, is still not hot at this time, and the amount of iron ore imported from Australia in the Chinese mainland market is also limited, and it does not bring much revenue to Australia to boast about.

In this case, to what extent will Fan's Investment Group operate the mine, everyone still has a wait-and-see attitude, and no one knows what the situation will be in the future?

However, in order to cooperate with the stock listing, Fan Wuxian threw out a big bomb that had been prepared a long time ago, and he instructed his subordinates, "Now, it's time to throw out the iron ore procurement contract signed with China!" ”

There are no pop-ups
