1048 Garrison, That Must Drop (a)
"Boss, there is a dirty feud between Mauritania and France because of their oil exploration rights, and we are like this, aren't we?" Wu Zhongda, as the general manager of Hongqi Machinery Group, naturally had to make up for this knowledge when his salesman talked about the first international business, right?
Mauritania was a French colony in the beginning, and it became completely independent in the sixties and seventies.
Even if independent, basically the economy of the entire country is a vassal of France.
After Taya came to power in the mid-80s, he always wanted to get rid of France's economic control, so he often clashed with France. In the eighties, the Taya government wanted China to invest in their mines, but at that time, China was so poor that it couldn't even fill its stomach, and the Chinese had always had a kind of idea that China was rich in land and resources, and there was no large-scale development in China's countless mines.
What's more, once the Chinese government enters the mining industry in Mauritania, it will definitely cause the French government to be unhappy.
At that time, China was in a very bad situation in the international community, and even the former Soviet Union, which was about to collapse, had very stiff relations with China. At that time, France was an absolute power, for China. China has just begun to carry out reform and opening up, and is vigorously attracting foreign investment, and funds from France also account for a large part, so the Chinese government will naturally not offend the French government for the sake of the whole.
Now Yun has to buy Mauritania's eye-popping oil exploration rights and want to enter their mining industry, although it is a very beneficial thing for both sides of the cooperation, but for the international community, it is not a good thing.
Mao's ore is not just exported to France.
Yun Fei has just offended the entire United States, and now he is ready to provoke European powers again, what is this not death?
"What happened to the French government? Mauritania is an independent sovereign State. Why didn't they let us get their mining rights and oil exploration rights? Even if something goes wrong. This is also what the government should consider, and we don't need to consider what the French government thinks. As soon as the listless Yun Fei heard Wu Zhongda's words, he immediately became angry, "Besides, they are against it, is it useful?" This is a normal business cooperation. For this, they dare to send troops? If they did send troops, I think those bearded men in Europe would be more than happy to drop a few bombs in Paris! ”
Yun Fei said coldly.
It is basically impossible for the garrison to count on the country this time, and it is not only the big bosses who have made it clear that it is impossible. Even the military is only tempted, but it is not able to act......
"What does the other side need from us? And how much are we going to get their benefits? Jiang Jianxing is not very supportive of this matter.
This is not a domestic investment.
This is especially true in Africa, where presidents are almost every once in a while.
"We don't have a specific list. But it's probably our Hongqi Machinery's mining equipment, a production line with an annual output of 30 million tons of concentrate, a steel plant or something they need, now we can't tell, there is a railway of more than 500 kilometers, a port with an annual throughput of 2 million tons and attached port machinery, these things will be worth more than 3 billion US dollars. That's more than 25 billion yuan. "Yun Fei is not very clear about what the other party needs.
After all, I haven't had time to ask Wu Fan about this matter.
He felt that this was a mistake on the part of Yan Zòng, and these guys brought them to his office as soon as they came.
If it weren't for his nonsense with Chinese etiquette and customs. Now to enter the formal negotiations, they must not be dumbfounded?
"Isn't that too much investment?" Zhang Cui immediately frowned, "It is difficult for our company to come up with such a large amount of money now......
As Yunfei's financial steward. Zhang Cui even knew better than Yun Fei how much money Yun Fei had in his pocket.
The large aircraft project has occupied nearly 20 billion yuan of funds from the beginning, and a series of projects such as the engine factory and the Jiuyi automobile factory that are about to be established will almost cost tens of billions. The company's already small amount of funds was invested in the research and development of aircraft engines by Yunfei.
The liquidity of the entire group company is already less than one billion, which is quite a dangerous thing.
And now, it is another project of more than 20 billion yuan......
Zhang Cui found that since becoming the financial manager of Yunfei, he really hasn't had a few easy days of being rich. finally had some money in their hands, and immediately had to be spent by their ruined boss.
There is no money at this time, and it is actually another 20 billion project.
"These funds are not much. As long as we get their oil rights and find a big oil field, in another two years, the oil will have to double. Moreover, there will be no shortage of buyers at all. Yun Fei said with a smile.
"Our company is taking this as an opportunity to enter the energy industry. We can't give up their mines either. Not to mention anything else, just our company's annual steel consumption, if we don't have mines, as soon as the price of international iron ore rises, our costs will have to rise directly......"
"......" Everyone was speechless.
Perhaps, after the development of their group company, it is estimated that their boss will find out some industries in the whole world.
"Yun Fei, we are very new to these two industries. Isn't it a bit too impulsive to enter these two industries? If you just invest in mines, it will only be two or three hundred million US dollars, and it will not have any impact on our company's funds. But the $3 billion project, especially the railway, is more than $20 billion by our domestic standards......."
Others will not have any objection to Yun Fei's blind investment plan, but Jiang Jianxing is different: "What's more, are you too blindly optimistic about the investment expectations of ore and oil?" What's more, we don't allow private energy projects in China! ”
"There will soon be a loosening of restrictions on private energy projects in China. What's more, our energy company will not be registered in China, and I have asked Anna to go to the Virgin Islands to register an offshore company. In the future, many of our export businesses can be through this company, so that we can save a lot of taxes and fees. If other companies can do this, why can't we? Why can't you do that? ”
Yun Fei knew that if he didn't explain these things to them clearly, they wouldn't be ruthless during the negotiation process.
"Ore, although our domestic ore has been sluggish in the past few years, but now the domestic real estate market has begun to become hot, and our Jiuyi Building is the most obvious example. The demand for iron ore will become larger, and the market demand will stimulate the price increase, which is the most typical market leverage principle. In terms of oil, after the United States strikes Iraq, the oil production of the entire Middle East countries will be affected. In this way, will the price of oil not rise? What's more, the number of private cars in our country, we have conducted market research after making Jiuyi Automobile, right? This is clear to everyone, and I don't need to explain it anymore, right? ”
As a person who knows too much, Yun Fei always feels that explaining history to others is a very painful thing.
"What if the United States doesn't fight?"
"It's impossible not to fight. I can't explain much about that. Yun Fei said categorically.
The United States does not fight Iraq?
Isn't that a joke?
Without fighting Iraq, how can they solve their oil supply problems?
You know, most of the crude oil in the Middle East is exported to the United States. The United States attacked Iraq because Iraq had a bad relationship with their Arab brothers, especially Saddam's grandson was a white-eyed wolf, and the Kuwaiti royal family had so many resources at the time, didn't Saddam's grandson, who was poor and crazy a few years ago, also occupy Kuwait?
If the United States wants to kill chickens and scare monkeys, Iraq is naturally the best choice.
What's more, after the occupation of Iraq, the Americans can completely control Iraq's oil production, and it will not be so easy for OPEC to want to use oil to blackmail the United States.
"Nothing else is a big deal, how do we get these funds?" Zhang Cui only talked about things related to money.
"I took a loan from a bank, secured by the mine and the oil fields we found, which I had already done when I went to the capital the other day." Yun Fei said proudly.
They count as white wolves with empty gloves.
Anyway, the country's money is used by others, but is Yun's Holdings also used?
"Li Lu, if you have anything to say, just say it. We're here to discuss issues and unify our thinking. Li Lu didn't speak all the time, and several times she wanted to speak and stopped, and Yun Fei asked her directly.
"What other problems are easy to solve, if we get these mines and oil fields, how can we ensure safety?" Li Lu has been engaged in import and export trade since the 80s, and knows what is most important in Africa: "These African countries often have armed rebellions, and once a new government is formed, they will not pay attention to the agreement between us and the old government. That's when our investment went down the drain. The gross domestic product of Mauritania as a whole is less than $3 billion a year......"
"So, that's the last thing I'm going to ask is the last thing we can afford to compromise. Garrison right! In order for this project to be successful, we have to get the right to garrison troops. We can't count on the government on this. Therefore, we can only set up an international security company. When the time comes, we will directly set up our headquarters in Mauritania, and we will not have many garrisons, five or six hundred people will be enough. Yun Fei said proudly.
At that time, his big boss Yun will also be a local tyrant boss with a gun in his hand.
The only one in the whole of China! (To be continued......)
PS: Happy holidays to everyone!
