Ichiro Tanaka's answer was a bit unexpected by Tang Feng, in Tang Feng's eyes, Ichiro Tanaka should be a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, otherwise he would not have been able to hold out for so many days in such a situation.

But such a person actually made such an answer, which really made Tang Feng a little incomprehensible.

Through the conversation with Tanaka Ichiro just now, Tang Feng knew that Tanaka Ichiro should not hesitate to agree to himself, after all, the 10% preferential amount is not a joke, and he also guaranteed to provide Tanaka with sufficient gold supply, which can solve the urgent needs of Tanaka Precious Metals Company, and at the same time make Tanaka Precious Metals in the current position, to a higher level.

Tang Feng couldn't figure out why this Ichiro Tanaka would reject his kindness just because of an explanation.

That's right, Tang Feng himself admitted that he did have his own purpose in giving such a discount to Ichiro Tanaka. This purpose is definitely not an ulterior purpose, but it comes from a very normal business competition that will make Tang Feng suddenly rise this idea.

Very simply, the reason why Tang Feng wants to support Ichiro Tanaka is to seize the precious metal market in Yuben, whether it is the market of gold, platinum or silver, Tang Feng wants to control it. Of course, if possible, the remaining mineral resources, Tang Feng also wants to control.

Without him, he is too rich, and he is a country with poor mineral resources, and the demand for various mineral resources is very large, as long as he is not a fool, he can see the huge benefits of controlling the mineral resources.

As the world's third largest economy, in addition to sulfur, timber and fishery resources, other mineral resources and fuels needed for industrial production need to be imported from abroad, and the dependence on the import of mineral resources is as high as more than 90%.

Although he has a lot of coal reserves in Hokkaido, the cost of coal mining is too high. At this stage, it is not suitable for industrial mining at all, and as for mineral resources such as iron ore, oil, liquefied natural gas, non-ferrous metals, ferrous metals, precious metals and precious stones, it is even more scarce.

For example, the import dependence on oil is as high as 99.7%, the import dependence on coal is 92.7%, and the import dependence on various non-ferrous metals is 95% on average.

It can be said that in addition to the three major resources of sulfur, timber and fishery resources, the current book is born. Almost all other mineral resources rely on imports to complete, and what is the import volume this year? Very amazing.

As the world's third largest economy, it has almost no mineral resources in China, so its annual import of mineral resources has always been among the top in the world. Like oil, the current import volume of this book is second only to China and the United States, and is the third in the world; Copper accounts for 12.7% of global demand, nickel 19.8%, aluminum 17.1%, and so on

And the Tang Anglo-American Group under Tang Feng's name has nothing else. There are mineral resources, if you can take down the big market of mineral resources, even if you only take a part of it, it is enough to bring enough funds to Tang's Anglo-American Group.

The most important thing is that if the Tang Anglo-American Group can grasp some of the domestic markets such as precious metals, rare earths, non-ferrous metals, and some iron ore, coal, oil and natural gas, then once Abe's grandson dares to make trouble, Tang Feng can directly cut off the supply of upstream mineral resources in Yuben, and dare not say that he will let Yuben be chaotic without a fight. At the very least, it can make this very uncomfortable.

Now, in terms of the ability of Tang's Anglo-American Group, it has entered the market. There are definitely such qualifications, not to mention anything else, taking the five major mineral resources of copper, iron, coal, oil and natural gas, there are really few mining companies in the world that can catch up with the reserves of Tang's Anglo-American Group.

In fact, Tang Feng had some ideas about the development of Tang's Anglo-American Group before, that is, to export the mineral resources under the name of Tang's Anglo-American Group to countries in need. Of course, among them, Huaxia definitely occupies a large proportion. Although China has a large land and abundant resources, the rapid development of China has also made a large gap in various mineral resources in China, so it is at a relatively low price. The sale of mineral resources produced by Tang's Anglo-American Group to China is a constant principle in Tang's plan.

Maybe someone will spray Tang Feng to do this, but Tang Feng has a clear conscience for himself. No matter what, Tang Feng is also a Chinese, and the blood flowing in his body is the blood of Chinese people, although for one reason or another, Tang Feng gave up his Chinese nationality and joined the American nationality, but this does not prevent Tang Feng from loving his motherland.

And Tang Feng didn't want to explain much about this. Now that I'm in this position and have the ability to contribute to the country, then I will do what I think, and I don't care what others think! If you have the ability, you can do the same!

Therefore, in Tang Feng's plan, Huaxia is a very important piece of the puzzle. However, with the discovery of the Arica copper-gold mine and the annexation of Anglo American, Tang Feng suddenly found that he could control a large number of mineral resources, so where should these extra mineral resources be sold?

Europe? It was a good place, but today, with the appearance of Ichiro Tanaka, Tang Feng suddenly discovered that instead of selling these mineral resources to Europe, it was better to ship them directly to Yuben. With the current mineral resource reserves of Tang's Anglo-American Group, it will definitely make the company dependent on Tang's Anglo-American Group in terms of certain important mineral resources.

Although since the 70s, we have paid great attention to the reserves of various mineral resources, whether it is government reserves or private reserves, we can be called the best country in the world. For example, the oil reserves of this book exceed 600 million barrels, and the number of days of accounting reserves exceeds 200 days, while China only has 35 to 40 days! As for coal reserves, although Tang Feng does not know the specific figures, the coal reserves in Ben over the years are definitely not used up in one or two years; There are also rare earth reserves, which are as high as 50 years, while Huaxia's rare earth reserves are only enough for China to use for 30 years.

As for the nuclear fuel uranium-235 used in this nuclear power, it is more than 1,000 tons in reserve

Iron ore, this thing is a bit shocking to say, among the 24 most important iron mines in Australia, eight are directly controlled by him, and the remaining 16 mines are also owned by him

But even if I have done so much work, the small area still makes me have a natural sense of fear, that is, I am afraid that there will be a shortage of various resources, so now I am still buying mines all over the world, and I will reserve them when I buy them back.

Since I said that I did this, why didn't I get into it? What if he can rely on the resources of the Tang Anglo-American Group to make him have a certain dependence on the mineral resources under his name?

No one dares to say such a thing, but if you don't do it, why should people rely on your mineral resources?

So Tang Feng wanted to try it, and the breakthrough was on this Ichiro Tanaka in front of him! (To be continued.) )
