Chapter 567: Three Explanations

It's just that the Europeans' plan was interrupted by Tang Feng's stick, and Tang Feng forcibly acquired Anglo American again, which undoubtedly made things worse for the disadvantaged Europeans.

To be honest, Tang Feng doesn't want to see a madman-like company like Glencore continue to grow bigger, a company like Glencore Strata can maintain its current scale, if it continues to grow, it will be a great threat to the global mining industry.

Deep Mark. The gang that Richie inherited from the mantle is too aggressive, and the methods of this and that gang are too streamlined. Hooligans. Tang Feng didn't even doubt that if it was those people who attacked him last time, he would never have appeared in Brazil now, but honestly hid in the United States.

Those crazy people can really do anything, Tang Feng has no doubt about this, because the things they did before were too speechless. The collapse of the former Soviet Union, the unrest in the Congo, the political scandals in Nigeria and Venezuela, etc., these events are all in the figure of those crazy people.

Moreover, it is said that after the outbreak of the events in Ukraine, those madmen also had extremely deep contact with some extremists in Ukraine and Russia, and even the current hot IS, those madmen can catch up with them......

Although there is no direct evidence for these things, as the saying goes, there must be a reason for the ground. Why don't others say that BHP Billiton has done these things, and why don't others say that ExxonMobil or Total have done these things?

Therefore, for this kind of company like a madman, Tang Feng is really a little respectful.

Don's musings were interrupted by Conrad's words.

"Don, that's the way it is now, although Glencore's plan has been interrupted by you, Pedro and I both think that they can't just stop it. That's why I'm going to start this party and invite you over, we have to join forces to deal with this beast, and if we fight alone, we will most likely be swallowed by this beast in one gulp. ”

Tang Feng nodded and said, "Then what are your two plans?" ”

Conrad touched the back of his head with some embarrassment, and then looked at Pedro. Finding that the old fellow of mine nodded slightly, he gritted his teeth and said: "Don, in fact, Pedro and I have discussed a plan before, but this plan is a bit um, how to say it, I am afraid that you will not agree." ”

Tang Feng said lightly: "Mr. Conrad, we are now standing together in a certain aspect, you and Mr. Pedro might as well talk about the plan for me to hear, maybe I will agree." ”

"That's good. Then I'll talk about it. Don, in fact, Pedro's plan and I are quite simple, which is to join forces against foreign investment. That is to say, the current owners of iron ore in Brazil are united, we share resources, intelligence, and if there is any ill-intentioned foreign capital that wants to enter the Brazilian iron ore market, then we will unite to deal with him from all aspects! ”

Tang Feng lowered his head and smacked for a while. He looked up and said, "Mr. Conrad, this plan of yours sounds pretty good. However, the difficulty of implementation is not ordinary. For example, how do we define whether foreign money entering the Brazilian iron ore market is hostile? For example, when you talk about resource sharing, what exactly does this resource refer to? And, even if we have a target, how do we stop it? ”

Conrad nodded slightly and said, "Don." As I said, this plan is just a general plan that Pedro and I have come up with, and we know that the problems in this plan are in the three questions that you just raised. So be it. I'm going to talk about how to solve these three problems in general. ”

Conrad held out a finger and said, "First of all, let's talk about how to define whether foreign money is hostile or not. This is actually very easy to judge, you know, we still have some connections in the Brazilian banking community, the source of foreign funds, we can use the help of friends in the banking industry to determine where these funds come from. And at the Brazilian Ministry of Mines, we still have some energy in Vale, so this information is not very difficult for us. ”

Tang Feng heard this, nodded slightly, Vale's power in Brazil is amazing, although this company is not as large as Petrobras, but it is also the largest private enterprise in Brazil, and it is also the largest mining company in Latin America, so it should not be difficult for them to gain some confidence in Brazil.

Conrad stretched out a second finger: "The second point, the so-called resource sharing, this is very simple. Don, you know, it's a lot of process to turn the ore from a mine into money in our pockets. Mining, transportation, electricity, and water are all indispensable. Our resource sharing means that the resources needed in these mining processes are shared together, and of course, this is determined by the percentage of ore produced by each mining company. For example, the issue of railway capacity is very important, most of Brazil's iron ore mines are located inland, some distance from the coastline, and the cost of automobile transportation is too high, so rail transportation will inevitably become a very important resource. The members of our alliance can arrange rail transportation according to the situation, but those outside the alliance will not be able to get rail transportation or even be unable to obtain it, which will undoubtedly increase their costs a lot. ”

This is a very good approach, and if Conrad's first point is to solve the problem in terms of political influence, then the second point is to solve the problem in terms of actual situation, and the effect is definitely not generally good. This is where the power of the monopoly giants lies.

Conrad stretched out a third finger and said: "As for the third point you just asked, it will be easier to do, as long as the members of our alliance can work together, then it should not be difficult to deal with those foreign funds with ulterior motives in Brazil." We can use some of the power in our hands to block hostile foreign funds from all sides under reasonable and legal circumstances, and they may be able to hold on to it in a month or two, but what about half a year and a year? I don't believe they can hold on! (To be continued.) )
