Chapter 233: The Idea of Establishing a Mining Company

It's the last day of April, so let's help! Ask for a monthly pass and subscription!

"Hey! The company was doing well, but it has been breaking up recently. ”

Feng Shi frowned and said to Jin Xiaoqiang, his uncle happened to be one of the major shareholders in this company, and now the company is in trouble because of the problem of business philosophy, so his uncle is also entrusting him to see if there are any suitable business partners to see if he can introduce them to invest in this company.

Jin Xiaoqiang has learned that this Talisen originally specialized in tantalum, which is also a rare metal, and this metal has a very wide range of uses in electronics, electrical, and military industries.

One of the main uses is to make tantalum capacitors, which are then used in various control circuit boards, and in missiles, this metal is also very useful.

The U.S. Department of Defense is one of the largest consumers of the metal.

Originally, Talisen was only engaged in tantalum business, and later when developing tantalum ore, he discovered the associated ore lithium, as well as other associated ores such as niobium, but at that time, the company did not pay special attention to lithium, and just sold lithium metal to some glass manufacturers and let them use it to make tinted glass.

But since the end of the last century, the beginning of this century, during this time, the global scientific community has proposed a lithium battery research boom, so that some people in the company believe that the future of lithium metal is promising, and the company should tilt resources and policies like this.

But some people don't think so, the tantalum business has been doing well every year, and it has made a lot of profits, but now why should we tilt policies and resources to this so-called lithium metal?

And now it is only 2004, the research and development of lithium batteries, is not too mature, and lithium batteries are still very unstable, especially prone to explosion, so this part of the people are not too optimistic about the prospects of lithium batteries, they think that the concept of lithium batteries, in fact, is just the same as some other scientific fantasies, is just a flash in the pan.

So these two parts of the people quarreled so much about this, and even made trouble to the point of separating the family.

The history of the previous life was also that the two companies finally fell out until they separated, and later divided into two Talison, one specializing in tantalum and the other specializing in lithium.

It's just that the beginning of this Talisen, which specializes in lithium, is not particularly good, although they got the company's original lithium mining area, but in terms of funds, they don't give a lot of money to the other.

So at the beginning, it can be said that it was difficult, and later, especially after 07 and 08 years, due to the maturity of lithium battery technology and being equipped with various mobile phones, this Talisen, which specializes in lithium, has a better life.

And later, with the proliferation of smart phones with large touch screens, major mobile phone companies have a greater supply and demand for lithium batteries, and with the rise of hybrid battery cars, this company is getting better and better.

Even in Australia, there is already a rising star, and it is getting bigger and bigger, until 2011, I said that I took a step ahead of time, cooperated with this company, and became one of the major shareholders of this company.

At that time, when Jin Xiaoqiang saw this news, he was extremely distressed, why didn't these companies in the Celestial Empire remember their surnames for a long time, thinking about the losses they suffered on Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton back then, do they still want to eat on this Talisen again?

Although our Celestial Empire is also known as a large country with lithium metal reserves, you don't look at where those lithium mines are, either the Qinghai Plateau or the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and the difficulty of development is greater than the other.

In the end, even if it is the cost of mining, it is better to import from abroad, and in 2010, this Talisen company has become the largest overseas lithium supplier in the Celestial Empire.

However, since the government doesn't look down on others and doesn't want to cooperate with others, then he can't miss this opportunity, now is the time when this Talisen company needs funds the most, and it is also the best time to start by himself.

"Oh? Breaking up? What's going on? ”

Although Jin Xiaoqiang has long known the reason for the company's separation, he can't show it in front of the closure, after all, his understanding of this company is completely from his own memory in his previous life.

Feng Qian sighed, and then told Jin Xiaoqiang the original story that Talisen was now making trouble with the family.

"Oh! So that's the case? So what do you mean by your uncle, and which side are they on? ”

"Hehe, the original Talison is an old resource company in Australia, but the plate is not big, that is, it specializes in tantalum, and the board members are all old immigrants who have come to Australian land for a long time, because the company's plate is not big, so there are only seven people on the board. Now it is divided into two factions, one faction is to continue to engage in tantalum, and the other faction is to engage in lithium, my uncle is more trendy, the ability to accept new things is relatively strong, he is also very optimistic about the future application and development of lithium batteries, so he is on the side of lithium mines. ”

Feng Guan smiled bitterly and said to Jin Xiaoqiang.

"And what's the biggest problem he's having right now?"

Jin Xiaoqiang asked again about the status of the seal.

"Hey! It's not a problem with the mining area, the two families have already negotiated and said that they want to separate, but after all, the previous mining areas are all intertwined, there are several large lithium mining areas, and the branches are around those tantalum mining areas, and the people over there want my uncle and their money to buy them back. ”

Feng Jing frowned and said to Jin Xiaoqiang, if it weren't for the fact that his money was invested in this agent Huayang Power brand and entering the Australian market, he would definitely help his uncle.

Seven people, four adhere to the previous line, three insist on lithium, now it seems that the old faction of people has a lot of lithium mining areas in their hands, and they want the money of the new faction of people to exchange, as if the new faction of people does not have enough funds.

"Now what are they going to do with your uncle? Financing? How much funding is needed? ”

Jin Xiaoqiang suddenly remembered his father, now his father is working hard in Xigangzi, I heard that the expansion is very strong, and he hasn't even come back to Eleven, and the business seems to be doing very well.

Then why don't you let your father come over and let him build a large-scale mining resource consortium?

The main business on my side is the mechanical aspect, and then the mining resources, let my father do it, isn't this a combination of two swords?

"The old guys are asking a lot of money, and they have a couple of very good lithium mines on the Greenbuss mining area, and they are asking for $200 million to be able to take all of them."

Feng knew that Jin Xiaoqiang was interested in this lithium mining area, so he told Jin Xiaoqiang about it.

$200 million? According to the current exchange rate, that is, more than a billion yuan, according to the current lithium ore market, it can be said that this price is not low.

It's only 2004, not the era when lithium batteries were popular, and the mainstream batteries for mobile phones are still nickel-metal hydride batteries, not to mention the batteries used in hybrid cars.

The current research and development of lithium batteries is just in its infancy, and it has not been popularized in a large area like later generations, and the lithium battery is not very stable and easy to explode because of high temperature or other environmental influences, so this lithium battery is just a new concept and has not been promoted in a large area.

At present, the main use of lithium is in the manufacture of non-ferrous specialty glass.

But now those old guys are directly shouting at 200 million Australian dollars, Jin Xiaoqiang is not familiar with it, and now the price of lithium ore powder, so I don't know whether it is expensive or cheap.

However, compared with the large-scale promotion of lithium batteries in later generations, and with the deepening of the research and development of lithium batteries, the application range of lithium batteries is becoming more and more extensive, the 200 million Australian dollars, in the eyes of Jin Xiaoqiang, is simply a cabbage price.

Suitable, very suitable, we must take this company down as soon as possible.

"$200 million? This is not a small amount, if I help your uncle and them take these mining areas, then how many shares of your uncle and they plan to give up the new company? ”

Jin Xiaoqiang pretended to be very embarrassed and said to the sealing situation, but he didn't expect that after the sealing situation stopped, he was happy.

At present, his uncle and they do not dare to find other people to invest indiscriminately, after all, before the prospect of lithium batteries is still unclear, there are not many people who are interested in this lithium mine.

There are some other resource companies that are interested in this lithium mine, but his uncle has to be careful, after all, compared with those companies, the current scale of the Talisen lithium mining company is too small, if the funds of those predators are released, maybe people will swallow their company with a mouth.

Therefore, it is appropriate to find some companies with the right scale and very optimistic about the prospects of lithium mines to raise funds, and the current Jin Xiaoqiang is very suitable for this condition.

"Is this, I still have to go back and discuss it with them, after all, he didn't tell me in detail, but I believe that after I go back and tell them, there will be results soon, and then Xiaoqiang, you can also take someone to investigate, and then you guys are talking about it in detail, what do you think?"

Feng Guo didn't spit directly, after all, he was not an employee of Talisen, he was just helping his uncle and Jin Xiaoqiang match.

"Well, yes, wait until about the Spring Festival, I will discuss it with my dad at that time, and then we may go to Australia together to have a look, anyway, it will be two months, everyone is ready."

"Well, I think I'll let my uncle drag them over there first, anyway, it's Christmas soon, New Year's Day, and they have to have a holiday."

At this time, Jin Xiaoqiang was thinking about how to support his father, become a predator of mining resources, and establish a global mining resources company.
