Fan Wuxian sat in his office. Listen to the work reports of the senior management of the headquarters through video equipment.
In the recent period of time, due to the impact of the assassination incident at sea, Fan Wuxian spent a lot of time to start and finish, and finally settled the impact of this incident, killing those who should be killed, arresting those who should be arrested, and the Military Commission and the Navy Command have also punished a large number of people for this, and Minister Zhang's General Armament Department is also building a batch of new weapons and equipment because Fan Wuxian donated 500 million US dollars, and everyone is very busy.
Another consequence of this incident was that Ye Jiarong's enthusiasm for Fan Wuxian suddenly became stronger, and whenever he had time, he would always fly over to get together with Shen Ying, or steal time to see Fan Wuxi, and the grinding of his ears and temples made Fan Wuxian feel very difficult to control.
After all, if an actress in the entertainment industry wants to take the initiative to seduce boys, unless he is a eunuch, it is difficult for anyone to survive, Fan Wuxian can restrain himself from holding his bottom line, and he is already close to a saint.
But what surprised Fan Wuxian was that Shen Ying actually didn't reject Ye Jiarong, and he didn't know until a long time afterwards that he was on a desert island. The two girls have been together for a long time, and they have said a lot of things that should be said and not said, and their feelings have increased greatly, but they have a little bit of mysterious feelings.
In that unpredictable environment of life and death, it seems that the two girls have plans to spend the rest of their lives on the desert island with Fan Wuxi, and naturally they want to form a sisterhood, although they have now returned to the real society, but the covenant between the two girls does not seem to have dissipated because of this, but the relationship has become more stable.
This kind of thing makes Fan Wuxi feel a little scratching his head, at present, if he says that he is not tempted, it is also fake, but from Fan Wuxi's position, he needs to bear enough responsibilities, and all kinds of difficulties have made him feel that if he continues to act recklessly, even if others don't come to assassinate him, he himself will be worried to death.
"On the Mongolian side, we have discovered a new copper-gold mine, which is also superficial, and the reserves are quite amazing, and now the headquarters has increased investment, and 5,000 workers have driven into Mongolia, and are preparing for mining day and night, and strive to be able to start construction within three months." Xu Daheng, the head of the Mongolian project at the headquarters, introduced Fan Wuxi.
Fan Wuxian nodded and said, "Well, it's to speed up the progress of the project." The sooner we see the benefits, the better, is our smelter ready? ”
Because he was worried that Mongolia would have a repetition in its mineral policy, Fan Wuzhi took advantage of the chaotic political situation in Mongolia during this period of time when no one seriously cared about the construction of mineral resources, and planned to get more practical benefits from Mongolia, so he asked them to build a crude refinery there, and transport the copper and gold ore back to the mainland after rough connection, and then refine.
Xu Daheng fully understood Fan Wuxi's intentions, so the progress of the project has been very strict, and he also raised a question, "Boss, the amount of gold separated this time is already quite considerable, if we want to transport this gold out through normal channels, the tax loss is very large, you see——"
When Fan Wuxian heard this, he immediately replied, "Do you still need me to teach this?" Mongolia has a large local population and a small population, so you still need to worry about what can be done? What did the gunship I sent over do? Didn't all their officials buy me? This kind of thing, just engage in smuggling, I will do the work here, and now I don't have any other extravagant expectations for you. The first is to intensify efforts to speed up construction, strive to develop copper mines more quickly, and the other is to get me back all the gold through smuggling activities! ”
"Okay!" Xu Daheng got Fan Wuxi's authorization, so he naturally knew what to do.
After all, compared to the profits from smuggling gold locks, the money used by Fan's investment group to bribe corrupt officials in Mongolia can be said to be negligible.
The reason why they want to pay bribes is because there are very big interests in it, otherwise, is it because they have too much money to spend, or are they so good that they look good in their hearts?
At this time, it is necessary to make good use of these corrupt officials and extract the maximum surplus value from them.
Fan Wuxian has never considered building a refinery in Mongolia, Mongolia is also an unreliable temporary investment place for him, relying on his grasp of their rich mine, hoping to obtain the greatest benefits in a short period of time, so his request for Xu Daheng is to try his best to empty the things over there.
As for these minerals after moving back, they naturally need to be refined and processed, but this processing enterprise can be built in Panshi City, which is not very far from the northern border, after all, it is also its own nest, and many factories are here, and he also hopes that the people of Panshi can benefit from this and enter the ranks of the metropolis as soon as possible.
Regarding this part of the work, it is also in full swing, and the entire Fan's investment group belongs to the enterprises. are all running at high speed according to Fan Wuji's will, and they are constantly striving for the same goal.
For Mongolia's copper mines, Fan Wuxi's expectations are still very high, not to mention, just the fact that the domestic demand for copper is rising, it is enough to support Fan Wuxian to use all righteous or unjust means to attack Mongolia's copper mines.
China's copper consumption is growing at a rate of about 6% per year, accounting for more than a quarter of the world's total copper consumption, ranking first in the world, while domestic copper production is relatively weak, and consumption dependence on foreign countries is more than one-third, so the slightest change in China's demand will have an important impact on the global copper market.
The strategic position of copper in the global economic development is self-evident, the country is in an important stage of the development process of "industrialization" and "urbanization", and copper is the lowest self-sufficiency rate in the bulk metal required in the country, considering the limited global copper reserves, and the low cost of copper storage and other particularities, the country is also considering the long-term interests, to increase the storage in a timely manner, in case of emergency.
It's just that since the end of last year, the storage has made domestic and foreign copper prices have risen by more than one-third, and at this time, the storage will undoubtedly become the subject of speculative speculation again, boosting the sharp rise in copper prices, from a global point of view, this is the development of many downstream industries. Even the global economic recovery is unfavorable. Therefore, after the second quarter of this year, the pace of state storage has slowed down.
After the impact of the Southeast Asian financial crisis gradually receded, coupled with the impact of the bombing of the embassy between China and the United States, some domestic military construction projects began to be put on the agenda, so the recent downturn in the manufacturing industry has begun to pick up, and in the case of the global automobile market continues to be sluggish, China's automobile market has also seen a boom in production and sales, and the real estate sales market has gradually strengthened, so that the decline in the manufacturing industry has bottomed out, all of which have given strong support to the commodity market. It will also directly affect the trend of copper prices at home and abroad.
In this case. Fan Wuxi's thirst for Mongolia's copper resources is naturally very urgent.
In the domestic copper demand structure, the power industry accounts for the largest share, about half, mainly used for wires and cables, transformers, switches, connectors, etc., of which wires and cables are large consumers of copper.
At this time, there is also news that in the next few years, the State Grid Corporation will have a large increase in the scale of investment, not only the construction of the power grid is a big head, but also will increase the distribution of substations in urban centers and rural areas, and strive to solve the problem of power supply bottlenecks and improve the reliability of power supply.
The investment in the transformation of urban power grids and the improvement of rural power grid construction will exceed tens of billions of yuan, more than double that of the same period last year, and the progress of large-scale investment projects in the power industry will undoubtedly have a huge effect on domestic copper demand.
The home appliance industry is also a major copper user in China, and air conditioners alone account for about 10% of domestic copper consumption. In recent years, the position of the domestic household appliance industry has become increasingly prominent, and the dependence on foreign trade has also been increasing, and the demand for copper is naturally quite large.
All kinds of circumstances show that the domestic production of metal copper, far from meeting the market demand, has become a big problem affecting domestic construction, their own investment in Mongolian copper mines, not only can solve this problem, but also will bring their own unusually rich profits.
After all, the important position of non-ferrous metals in the world economic circle will become more and more obvious in the next few years, and the international copper price will also strengthen all the way, bringing very bright development prospects for themselves.
Shen Ying came over, and after listening to Fan Wuxian's discussion with his subordinates, she said in a little surprise, "Wow, I found that you have the potential to be a big brother in the underworld, and you are openly discussing what smuggling issues!" And it's a bit unkind for you to directly exploit Mongolia's copper mines. ”
Fan Wuxian spread his hands, put Shen Ying on his lap, leaned back and said, "Then you misunderstood me, you didn't go to Mongolia to see." The people over there regard themselves as citizens of developed countries, and seeing the Chinese is like seeing slaves, and if I don't scrape the ground down two kilometers from them, I will be puzzled! As for smuggling or something, that's right, their kind of tax is simply more bullying than Zhou Peel, how can I let them sit back and enjoy the benefits? ”
The investment of copper and gold mine developers in Mongolia is indeed not small, so Fan Wuxi's appearance is a little ugly, and he even started the idea of smuggling gold, who made their corrupt officials have too much appetite, and the state tax is so heavy? Since they want to get something for nothing, then Fan Wuxian has more ways to get them nothing.
If you smuggle gold directly, you will even be exempt from taxes, so why not? The most important thing is that the copper and gold mines are only a few dozen kilometers away from the Chinese border, and with the huge strength of Fan Wuji's enterprise, it is quite easy to engage in some gold smuggling.
How can those border checkpoints in Mongolia, who are not much different from idiots, be able to fight these old fritters who have been in the business world for half their lives? Fan Wuxi's men had a thousand ways to smuggle the gold back without the border checkpoints noticing.
"Anyway, I just feel like you're bullying." Shen Ying sat on Fan Wuxian's lap and ran her fingers through his hair.
Fan Wuxian closed his eyes, feeling Shen Ying's fingers caressing his head, and suddenly asked her, "By the way, where did you send the bear skin we got on the island?" ”
When they came back, they were naturally not willing to throw away the bear skin that was hunted by Fan Wuxi, but after they came back, Shen Ying took the skin away, saying that it was going to be sent for repair, Fan Wuxian didn't ask much at the time, but he didn't know what had become of him at this time?
At that time, the conditions on the island were relatively simple, and Fan Wuxian himself had only heard about the treatment of the skin, and many of the steps were not considered authentic, so he also hoped that there would be a professional to deal with this bear skin.
After Shen Ying heard Fan Wuxi's question, she said to him, "Ah, if you don't say that I almost forgot, I should be able to get the skin back today, why don't we go over together?" ”
Fan Wuxian thought that his affairs had probably been dealt with, and it was also a good choice to go over with Shen Ying to breathe, so he nodded and agreed.
The two of them took bodyguards, sat in Shen Ying's Rolls-Royce sedan, and drove all the way to a small company called Maosheng Fur Store that Shen Ying had chosen, and after parking the car outside the company, Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying entered Maosheng Fur Store under the escort of six bodyguards.
Because it was morning, there were still a lot of customers here, so Fan Wuxian asked the bodyguards to stay outside, went to the service desk with Shen Ying, and then handed the receipt issued when he sent the skin to the service lady.
The service lady glanced at the receipt, then looked around, and carefully lowered her voice to the two people and said, "Mr. Miss, the people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau are checking this bear skin, you better leave early, the skin has been detained by them, and now they are looking for the murderer who hunted wild animals!" ”
"Huh?!" Fan Wuxi and Shen Ying were both stunned after hearing this, no one thought that such a thing would happen.
However, is the industrial and commercial bureau very bullish? Fan Wuxi never thought it would be like this, or was it because the store wanted to eat black and swallowed this valuable wild bear skin, so he played the guise of being detained by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, just hoping that he would turn around and leave?
"Then, let's go and meet the people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau." Fan Wuxian said to the service lady nonchalantly.
There are no pop-ups
