Chapter 339: Let's talk about Pat Mining again
The next day, in the morning. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Not long after Tang Bao got up, he was exercising in the morning. Akmin took a group of high-ranking government officials in São Paulo to the hotel where Tang Bao was staying.
Then Herfman rushed over!
"Huh. It's past seven o'clock in the morning, and I haven't even eaten breakfast. You're too early! Tang Bao smiled lightly and looked at Akemin and the others.
"It's fine. As I said earlier, today's itinerary is arranged by the São Paulo State Government, which naturally includes breakfast...... I have sent someone to book breakfast in advance at the hotel. Akmin laughed.
The officials who accompanied him also nodded in agreement.
"I'm staying and waiting to return to Minas Gerais with Mr. Don!" Huffman's answer was even more crisp, and he followed with his decision.
In front of him, Acmin dared to blatantly pour dirty water on Minas Gerais, and if he didn't keep an eye on it, he didn't know how he would discredit it.
So.
Hefman, who was originally staying in the same hotel as Tang Bao, found that Akmin and the others were coming, and he immediately ran over to stare at them.
"Since we're all here, let's dine together!" Tang Bao suggested with a smile.
"Okay."
Although Akmin didn't want Hefman to enjoy the breakfast he had carefully prepared, he couldn't refuse Tang Bao's proposal.
Hey.
Huffman smiled wickedly in his heart, secretly thinking that Akmin was obviously unwilling to entertain him, but he couldn't refute Tang Bao's face, so he should feel very aggrieved.
After enjoying breakfast and obtaining Tang Bao's consent, Akmin led Tang Bao to start today's trip.
The itinerary was all decided by Akmin, and Tang Bao did not interfere, or even ask in advance. took Kate, Asley and others as a complete "puppet", and let Akmin pull him.
Well.
He was not disappointed either, and in the morning he first visited an industrial park, then the laboratory of a technical research center, and then went to the cafeteria of the University of São Paulo to eat. In the afternoon go to see the financial street of São Paulo, well, mainly to visit the headquarters of Banco do Brasil. After dinner, a concert was arranged...... The itinerary is meticulous and meticulous, with a degree of relaxation and a combination of work and rest.
The visit lasted only one day, but Tang Bao still had some new understanding of São Paulo, and that Brazil is not only rich in mineral and agricultural resources, but also in high-tech ...... São Paulo was much more developed than he expected. Serious inflation aside, São Paulo is simply more developed than most cities in the United States, and it is no wonder that it is known as a cosmopolitan city.
Of course.
The change in his impression of Brazil did not prompt Tang Bao to rush to make new investment plans. One is because he is really unfamiliar with other fields. Another reason is that he has long stated to Asley that he is in charge of everything except for the development strategy in the mineral and agricultural fields.
Well.
Tang Bao didn't plan to break his promise!
As soon as the visit to São Paulo was over, Huffman diligently prepared a vehicle for Tang Bao. Huffmann, who accompanied the expedition throughout the process, also clearly saw the development of São Paulo, and knew that Minas Gerais wanted to compete with it, and there was almost no hope at all. He feared that Tang Bao would completely ignore Minas Gerais after staying in São Paulo for a long time.
"Well, fortunately, Minas Gerais is rich in mineral resources and agricultural resources, which happen to be the areas that Tang Bao values...... Otherwise, there is no qualification to compete at all. Huffman secretly rejoiced.
watched Tang Bao appear.
Huffman hurriedly collected his mood, greeted him, and said with a smile: "Mr. Tang, everything is ready, if you have nothing else to do, you can go." ”
"Okay."
Tang Bao smiled and nodded.
……
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Bao and his entourage arrived in Minas Gerais. Minas Gerais government officials, who were informed in advance, waited in advance to welcome them.
The warm applause like a tide clearly showed their excitement for Tang Bao's arrival.
Huffman got out of the car first and helped Tang Bao open the car door.
Tang Bao took Kate, Asley and others to get out of the car. Looking at the applause of the crowd, Tang Bao smiled and nodded his thanks, his eyes scanned the crowd, and soon locked on the emaciated middle-aged man in the middle of the crowd, at least a height of more than one meter nine was particularly eye-catching. Just as Tang Bao's gaze swept over, this guy happened to be looking at him as well, with a smile on his face that made him feel kind. At the same time, he moved his feet without hurry and walked over.
"Come, come. Mr. Tang, let me introduce it to you. Huffman gently pulled Tang Bao's arm, walked up to the lean and tall middle-aged man, and said, "This is Pizia......
"Piziani, Mr. Tang can call me Piziani." The tall, lean middle-aged man didn't wait for Huffman to finish speaking, and then he introduced himself first.
Forcibly interrupting someone else's referral was obviously a very rude move, but Huffman's face showed no dissatisfaction.
"Hello, Mr. Don, it is a great pleasure for you to come to Minas Gerais again. I happened to be out on a visit some time ago and missed meeting you, and now I can finally make up for it. Piziani took Tang Bao's hand tightly and explained with a smile.
"Hello."
Tang Bao replied politely.
Piziani, the governor of Minas Gerais, Tang Bao was the first time he had seen him, and he didn't know much about it, but Piziani's interruption of Huffman's introduction just now made him secretly unhappy. It's nowhere near annoying, but the impression left is very bad.
"Mr. Tang, please inside!" Piziani said.
"Okay."
Tang Bao smiled and nodded.
He personally had a bad impression of Piziani, but he had to continue to talk about the business that should be discussed, and he couldn't go home because he was disgusted.
……
The waiter brought the mellow coffee, and Piziani took a sip before putting it down. Hefmann, who was familiar with Piziani's daily habits, saw it and realized that the governor was planning to negotiate directly.
"Uh-huh...... Governor, Mr. Tang has come from afar. You see, do you want to prepare more meals and take a break? Huffman reminded softly.
"Ahh Yes, yes, look at me, I'm a little too anxious, it's really rude! Piziani pretended to apologize.
"It doesn't matter."
Tang Bao shook his head and said, "I feel very good, I don't need to rest." He wasn't blind, Piziani apologized on his lips, but he didn't think so in his heart. Eager to settle things immediately, he didn't know why Piziani was suddenly so urgent, and even didn't care about etiquette. However, this just catered to Tang Bao's idea, and he was not willing to continue the ink, and the sooner the negotiation was made, the better.
"Refreshing. Okay, then I'm welcome. "First of all, on behalf of the state government, I would like to thank Mr. Don for helping to cover up the problems of Pat Mining. "Before Tang Bao arrived in Minas Gerais, they needed to compete with the state of São Paulo, and their first task was to invite Tang Bao to come and invest in the investigation. After Tang Bao came over, their task changed, and the matter of investment inspection would be put on the back burner, but the trouble of Pat Mining would be solved first.
"Hands up!"
Tang Bao replied with a smile.
Yes.
For him, it's a very simple thing. Feel free to help and you will be grateful by the government of Minas Gerais, so why not?
"Well, at the beginning, Mr. Tang promised that as long as the trouble of Pat Mining was solved, you could take over Pat Mining. Now, we have cleared up all the hidden dangers and troubles of Pat Mining! Mr. Tang can take over with confidence. Piziani said.
"Huh. There is naturally no problem with taking over Pat Mining! However, we spent $95 million on the Pat Mining Company, and Mr. Governor should know better than I do the real situation of Pat Mining, which has long been insolvent and even in debt. The acquisition of Pat Mining Company for 95 million dollars is simply not reasonable! Tang Bao said.
This.
Piziani suddenly felt a headache, and said with an embarrassed face, "Mr. Tang, the auction was organized and supervised by the National Private Ownership Committee, and Pat Mining was sold at a price of 95 million US dollars, and no one can change it. Even if I'm the governor, I don't have the right to change the price. ”
"Oh? So what does Mr. Governor do? Tang Bao squinted his eyes slightly and asked.
"Plans? I want you to take all the debts directly, anyway, you can earn it back in minutes in the stock market, and ...... care about this little money? Piziani sneered, but he could only think about it in his heart, he never had the face to open this mouth to Tang Bao.
Don't forget. Although Tang Bao took Pat Mining, he has not paid the acquisition funds and taken over Pat Mining since then.
If Tang Bao is offended, this trouble will eventually fall into the hands of the state government, and it may even completely expose the darkness concealed by Pat Mining.
"Hmm...... Mr. Tang, you see that this is good, the state government provides tax incentives to offset losses. Piziani asked.
After thinking about it for a while, Tang Bao felt that there could be no other better way for the Minas Gerais state government, so he nodded and agreed.
"Well, that's it. Well, Pat Mining has a debt of 283 million US dollars, but it has 200 million tons of high-grade iron ore reserves, as well as a lot of production equipment, skilled workers, etc., even if it is really insolvent, but after solving all kinds of troubles, Pat Mining still has a very large investment value. Even if it's not worth $95 million, it shouldn't be very low! We made a price of $50 million. ”
"The valuation is inflated, but I can grudgingly accept it. I have a few conditions though! Tang Bao groaned.
"Please!"
Piziani Road.
"First, all the management assigned by the state government must leave their posts; Second, Pat Mines has a bloated structure that must be laid off and wages cut, and the state must help coordinate the unions; Third, Pat Mining has five mining licenses in the process of application, which the state government must approve for approval.
