Chapter 0149 Dig up a talent
Whether it is a local Australian, or a foreign investor with a certain strength in the Australian capital market, they all attach great importance to the explorer mining company with a Chinese background, and believe that backed by the world's largest iron ore consumption market, the profitability of the explorer mining company is not a problem, after all, the demand for iron ore in the Chinese market is too large.
Especially this time, the news that Yang Peiqi went to Sydney to meet with the Governor of Barnett of Western Australia has spread, and some people have also received rumors that Explorer Mining Company is about to obtain a huge order from Donghai Province, and some people have also heard that Zhu Mingkun, the secretary of Hangzhou, is the father of Zhu Huanlin, vice president of Explorer Mining.
In two trading days, the stock price of Explorer Mining on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange rose by more than 15 percent, making the stock price break through the HK$30 mark and reach HK$33.
Not only the stock price has accelerated, but the trading volume has also increased suddenly, obviously there are strong funds to see the future prospects of Explorer Mining, so it has entered the layout in advance with a very strong attitude.
Yang Peiqi is optimistic about this, since the existing stock price has increased, then when the second listing in Australia, the issue price will naturally increase accordingly, which is very beneficial to him.
Barnett before leaving Sydney. left her assistant, that is, the Chinese girl, and asked her to accompany Yang Peiqi and Zhu Huanlin to visit the scenery of Sydney.
In this regard, Yang Peiqi has no rejection. Because he is very unfamiliar with Sydney, the last time he came here, he was just passing by in a hurry, such as the opera house in Sydney, not to mention any other scenery. But because she accompanied Sharapova to Melbourne for two days, Yang Peiqi is more familiar with Melbourne.
In fact, Yang Peiqi also doesn't know what else to see in Sydney.
The Chinese girl's name is Zhang Linxi. It was actually the same month as Zhu Huanlin, and he turned twenty-six years old in two months. According to her own words, she graduated from Edith Cowan University in Western Australia with a degree in Hospitality and Tourism.
When I hear the name of this profession. Yang Peiqi was stunned for a moment, because the name of this major is really a bit strange. However, after listening to Zhang Linxi's explanation, Yang Peiqi knew. It turns out that this major is actually a very awesome major. In 2001, the programme won the prestigious WA Tourism Award, which was awarded to the school for the first time in its 30-year history. Not only that, but the program also offers five-star silver hotel services on university campuses.
At the same time, the program also offers a large number of internship positions, and after graduation, the school will help students find jobs. Of course, because of the major, students who graduated from this major. Most of them work as hotel services or tour guides. It's like Zhang Linxi herself, after graduating from college. The school helped her connect with a large travel agency in Perth as an assistant tour guide.
Probably often served as an assistant tour guide, so when Zhang Linxi led Yang Peiqi and Zhu Huanlin and the entourage to the tour, he seemed very comfortable, with a voice in the style of Taiwan Chinese, which made Yang Peiqi naturally think of the heroines in the Qiong Yao TV series.
"The Sydney Tower was built in 1968, that is, in the 57th year of the Republic of China, and the 230-meter-high tubular tower is made up of 46 pipes with a length of 5 meters, a diameter of 6.7 meters, and a weight of 32 tons. The exterior of the pipe is connected to the ground building by fifty-six steel cables. Each cable weighs seven tonnes and is made of two hundred and thirty-five strands of seven millimetres of wire. The total length of the steel cable can reach 170 kilometers. Zhang Linxi habitually pulled his long hair behind his shoulders with his hands, and then tilted his head slightly to introduce the tower to Yang Peiqi and others.
Sydney Tower is located in the center of Sydney, 304.8 meters high, is the tallest building in Australia, and is known as the three major landmark buildings in Sydney along with the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
The Sydney Tower is a multi-purpose building with a golden exterior that looks particularly spectacular in the sun. The tower of the Sydney Tower is a nine-storey cone, with two revolving restaurants on the first and second floors, each with more than 200 seats, and because the seats are limited, you must make a reservation in advance if you want to eat here.
The third and fourth floors of the tower are dining floors. The dining floor is surrounded by large pieces of glass and protected by a thick iron grille. The view from the window is unobstructed in view of the entire city of Sydney.
The dining floor is equipped with high-powered binoculars for visitors, with the help of which they can take in the scenery within 70 kilometers of the surrounding area. There is also a TV video showing the construction of the Tower of Sydney and the history of the city's development.
The Sydney Tower is also well-designed to withstand strong winds and strong earthquakes. On the seventh floor of the tower, there is a fire room with a capacity of 160,000 liters, and the water vents connected to it are scattered throughout the tower. There is also an emergency exit to the main street, so in the event of a fire, people can escape along the safety staircase.
For safety reasons, visitors to the Sydney Tower are subject to the necessary checks at the entrance, and smoking is prohibited in the tower.
Yang Peiqi listened to Zhang Linxi's introduction, smiled, and said: "Miss Zhang, in the future, you only need to say how many years of Western Yuan, and don't convert how many years this Republic of China has, anyway, we are not familiar with this, so there is really no need to bother with it." ”
Zhang Linxi was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I forgot that you are from the mainland." ”
Yang Peiqi smiled slightly, didn't say anything more, and after walking around the Sydney Tower, the group ran to a revolving restaurant near the Sydney Tower to eat.
It is a cylindrical building, more than 180 meters high, said to be the world's tallest skyscraper made of lightweight cement, the revolving restaurant has a unique design, its turntable diameter is 43 meters, the total weight is 100 tons, and it can receive more than 300 guests at the same time. It takes more than an hour for each turn of the restaurant. You can dine here while enjoying the cityscape of Sydney through the glass windows.
Zhang Linxi booked a seat here in advance, it was near the floor-to-ceiling window, and after the meal was delivered, Yang Peiqi found that it was a very ordinary Taiwanese meal, and couldn't help but feel a little strange, could it be that Barnett's old picker didn't give Zhang Linxi activity funds?
Just when Yang Peiqi was puzzled, Zhang Linxi explained to Yang Peiqi: "A Taiwanese chef here is a friend of mine, and the Taiwanese food he cooks is very delicious, so I ordered one myself for everyone to taste, which is my treat." ”
Yang Peiqi nodded, so Zhang Linxi had a treat himself, and it was natural to order this kind of Taiwanese-style meal.
So everyone tried it, and sure enough, they felt that it had a different flavor. After all, the two sides of the strait have the same ancestry, and they have more sense of identity in eating habits, if they change to Western food, Yang Peiqi really doesn't have such a big interest.
Yang Peiqi drank a glass of Taiwanese liquor, felt a little spicy, but the taste was different from that in the mainland, smashed her mouth, and asked with some curiosity: "Has Miss Zhang been working for the WA government?" ”
Zhang Linxi shook his head and replied: "No, I work in a travel agency, but because the Western Australian government wants to contact your company, and there is no full-time translator, I was invited by them to act as a temporary translator, and by the way, I will point out their habits about Chinese people or something, which can be regarded as a part-time job." ”
"The school is nominally to help connect students after graduation, but most of this work is not done for long. After that, I can only figure out my own way. Zhang Linxi said to Yang Peiqi with a smile, "If it's possible, it's not bad to stay here for a long time, after all, when you return to the island, it is difficult to have such a high salary under normal circumstances." ”
Yang Peiqi asked strangely, "Oh? Is the salary much higher in Australia than on the island? ”
"That's for sure, on the island, even if you are a gold medal tour guide, your annual income is only NT$1 million. And in Western Australia, even a newcomer like me, who has just been out of the job, earns more than 1,500 Australian dollars a week. Zhang Linxi said.
Yang Peiqi silently calculated in her heart, now the exchange rate of the Chinese dollar against the new Taiwan dollar is about 4.68, and the exchange rate of the Australian dollar against the Chinese dollar is 6.54, so calculated, 1 Australian dollar is equivalent to the new Taiwan dollar is 30.61, and one million new Taiwan dollars is only about 32,700 Australian dollars. In Western Australia, the weekly salary is at least 1,500 Australian dollars, and the annual salary is about 80,000 Australian dollars. In this way, the income in Australia is indeed much higher.
Subsequently, Yang Peiqi thought of another question, so she said to her very seriously: "Well, in fact, our company's initial plan here has just begun, if you are interested, you can join our company to work, after all, we also need translators who are more familiar with the Australian government." ”
He said this is not casually remembered, after the domestic employees came to Australia, they found that the office efficiency here is very low, probably affected by the primitive atmosphere, the efficiency of the local government is very low, and a thing often drags on for a long time, as the explorer mining company that needs to vigorously promote various construction projects here, there are some people who are more familiar with the government to communicate, which is obviously very necessary. And today's contact with this girl, Yang Peiqi feels pretty good, so she has such an idea.
"Then I'm asking for double my salary." Zhang Linxi's contract at the travel agency was about to expire, and now she is worried about her new job. As for her part-time job in the WA government, Yang Peiqi seemed happy to mention it. (To be continued......)
