As soon as Xiang Juan left, a voice sounded beside Yang Peiqi: "Brother, okay, I can actually let Xiang Juan make tea for you!" ”
Yang Peiqi turned his head and found that the person who spoke was the guy who had just arrived shortly before the plane took off, a middle-aged fat man in his forties, and the guy was giving him a thumbs up with an obscene face.
"Why did Uncle say that?" Yang Peiqi asked.
The middle-aged fat man almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, Nima, brother called you brother, but you called me uncle, is there such a person?
But there is no way, how people call it is people's freedom, and in terms of age, it seems natural for young people in their early twenties to call themselves uncles.
"Ahem......" The middle-aged fat man coughed dryly and said, "Brother, don't you know how popular Xiang Juan is?" ”
Yang Peiqi shook her head and said: "I only know that she is more famous, and she seems to have starred in TV series, and the others don't know much." ”
The middle-aged fat man showed a look of sudden realization, and said: "Brother, let me tell you, Xiang Juan's popularity is not ordinarily high, but she is known as the first beautiful flight attendant in China." It can be said that among the flight attendants in Huaxia, her popularity is definitely second to none. Moreover, her contour models are all over the country's major airports, just outside our Jiangzhou International Airport, and I saw it when I came in just now. ”
Listening to what this middle-aged fat man said, Yang Peiqi really remembered that at the entrance of the waiting hall, there really seemed to be Xiang Juan's contour model. But he didn't pay attention when he entered the airport.
The middle-aged fat man was still chattering: "Brother, don't you know, every flight, there are many passengers who find Xiang Juan and want to take a photo with her, or ask her to eat or something, but there are very few people who can really take pictures with her, and as for those who can ask her to eat together, they have never been." Like you, who can let her make tea for you, I have never heard of anyone daring to mention this. I didn't expect her to actually make you tea. ”
Yang Peiqi smiled and said, "Uncle, among the many people who ask Xiang Juan to eat, you are also one of them, right?" ”
The middle-aged fat man blushed and said with some embarrassment: "Alas, don't mention the previous things again." I'm not in the mood to think about such things now......"
"Oh? What does Uncle mean by this? Yang Peiqi was stunned, "Could it be that the uncle already has other goals, and he has succeeded?" ”
"How can I be in the mood to pick up girls now, I'm so anxious about business matters, you see my hair is about to fall out." The middle-aged fat man pointed to his head, which showed some signs of baldness, and said.
Yang Peiqi also saw that the spirit of this middle-aged fat man seemed a little tired, and he should have encountered some big trouble, so he asked casually: "What kind of business does uncle do?" ”
The middle-aged fat man sighed and began to introduce his situation: "I am engaged in mining, it turns out that I work in the Donghai Provincial Geological Survey Bureau. At the beginning of the century, Xiahai opened his own mining company to engage in the exploration and development of iron ore. Thanks to the popularity of the national steel market at that time, the company's development was very good...... However, the good times did not last long, and the financial crisis broke out three years ago, and the domestic steel market was also ......"
Yang Peiqi still knows something about the global economic crisis that has lasted for more than three years. The global financial crisis, caused by the subprime mortgage crisis in the U.S. real estate industry, has had a very large impact on three industries, namely real estate, shipbuilding and automotive.
In the past three years, especially in 08, when the financial crisis just broke out, the decline in real estate prices in China has been significant. Although the main reason for the decline in prices is the dual pressure of the domestic property market price bubble and domestic macroeconomic control policies, the financial turmoil in the United States has also made the Chinese property market face greater pressure from cashing out and declining demand. As a result, it will have a considerable impact on real estate investment, which in turn will affect the growth of fixed asset investment.
For the steel industry, the steel consumption of the real estate industry accounts for 25% of the overall steel demand in the country, and if the steel demand for new house decoration and home purchase is added, the steel consumption can reach 1/3. Therefore, the decline of the real estate industry has a huge impact on steel demand.
According to the survey, since 08, the real estate market of traditional steel demand has fallen into a downturn, and the new projects have declined sharply year-on-year, and the demand for direct steel has been greatly reduced, and many small and medium-sized private steel enterprises are currently in difficulty.
On September 18, 08, Baosteel, the leader of Huaxia Iron and Steel, announced that the price of steel products would be lowered on the basis of the price in October. At the same time, domestic iron and steel enterprises of all sizes have joined the ranks of price reductions. Relevant statistics show that at present, the average price of steel products in the country has fallen by 20%.
The domestic shipbuilding industry, which has continued to prosper in recent years, has produced strong support for steel demand, and the arrival of the financial crisis seems to make the prosperous shipbuilding industry shrink at an inflection point. The most immediate blow will come from the contraction of global trade, and the sharp decline in orders for guided vessels.
The prosperity of international trade depends on the economic development of individual countries. The advantages of 10,000-ton ships in transportation are mainly reflected in the large number and volume of goods, as well as the long distance and low freight. Therefore, it often carries commodities such as oil, iron ore, grain, and cement that support the operation of a country's economic base. When the economy enters a recession, the decline in trade demand for commodities will pass on the decline in the shipping industry to the shipbuilding industry. If the financial turmoil in the United States is not contained, the crisis will inevitably expand from the financial sector to the real economy, and the volume of global trade will fall sharply.
Since 2002, the Huaxia automobile market has grown at a super high speed for 6 years, far exceeding the growth rate of Huaxia's GDP. Since the outbreak of the financial crisis, this ultra-high-speed growth began to brake, according to the latest statistics of the Huaxia Automobile Industry Association, 08 years 1-8 months, the overall table of the national passenger car market is sluggish, Huaxia passenger car production and sales of 4.6324 million and 4.5503 million, a year-on-year increase of 13.67% and 13.15%, compared with the same period last year, the growth rate fell by 8.32 percentage points and 10.94 percentage points. In August, vehicle sales fell by 16% year-on-year in Europe, 15.5% in North America, and 14.9% in Japan. Domestic auto sales fell 5.4% year-on-year and 6.0% month-on-month.
These three industries are industries with a relatively large demand for steel, and their trends directly affect the development of the steel industry. In the context of the deepening impact of the financial crisis on the real economy, the steel industry is not immune. In the past three years, the steel industry has been hit hard, especially some small and medium-sized steel mills, which have gone bankrupt.
The so-called fire at the city gate affected the pond fish, and the iron ore exploration and development engaged in by the middle-aged man in front of him naturally also suffered.
