Su Su remembered something: "The difficulty of a large aircraft carrier in port is actually not a problem, if a large cargo ship is difficult to dock, it is a big deal." The iron ore war mentioned earlier, do you remember Brother Qiang? ”

Wang Qiang was surprised: "Of course you remember, the three giants of iron ore?" What Brazil's Vale, Australia's two. ”

Su Su nodded: "Although it is called the Big Three, Brazil's Vale is indeed a lot weaker, and Brother Qiang knows the reason?" ”

Wang Qiang was surprised: "Because he is Brazil? ”

Su Su smiled in surprise: "Brother Qiang's answer really makes me unable to refute?" Well, I want to say transportation, Vale's minerals to China are really thousands of miles, while Australia's minerals are only half the way to China, so Vale's mine prices are not competitive compared to Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton. In order to make up for the shortcomings in transportation and monopolize shipping, Vale has spent a lot of money to build 35 400,000-ton super giant ships, which are also the largest bulk carriers in the world! ”

Gan Ning patted his head in embarrassment and said: "It seems that there was such a thing in 2007, but I only care about the battleship, and I don't know the data of this cargo ship, but the draft of such a large cargo ship is definitely more than 20 meters, and there are only a handful of docks that can dock, right?" ”

Su Su sighed with emotion: "Yes, it is estimated that only Dalian Port and Qingdao Port can stop in China." When these giants appeared, it really shook the whole country of Chinese steel companies - China's purchase of iron ore was controlled by others, and now even the transportation link is monopolized by the other party, so isn't it worse? After all, in the past, it was still negotiable, and we could use our Chinese COSCO Group to help him transport iron ore to earn back some freight, but now as soon as the big ship comes out, COSCO is directly out. By the way, COSCO is a giant in China's shipping industry. ”

Wang Qiang exclaimed: "That is to say, Vale is a double kill if it is done like this, and it has engaged in China's steel and China's shipping industry at the same time?" ”

Su Su said in a deep voice: "Yes, so at that time, it was COSCO Group and the China Shipowners Association that were even more shocked - at this time, China must make a big move, Brother Qiang, guess?" ”

Wang Qiang smiled bitterly: "You know that it is impossible for my brother to guess without knowledge in this regard." ”

Gan Ning smiled: "I've given hints." ”

Wang Qiang was surprised: "Could it be that these giant ships have too deep a draft and can't rely on China's ports?" ”

Gan Ning laughed: "If you can rely on it, you can't let him rely on it!" ”

Su Su clapped his hands and laughed: "General Gan is right, China does not allow big ships to dock at the port on the grounds that it is not safe for super giant ships to enter the port!" This is a reasonable reason, and there is nothing wrong with it. ”

Wang Qiang was surprised: "Then what should they do?" ”

Su Su sneered: "Hold it! Iron ore is not a liquid like oil, and it can be unloaded directly off the open sea. ”

Wang Qiangle said: "Won't it? So hundreds of thousands of tons of goods are floating at sea? ”

Su Su said with a smile: "I heard that time, they had to travel thousands of miles to Italy again. ”

Wang Qiang was shocked: "Is this the world can't find a port to stop?" ”

Su Su smiled: "Yes, so I have to pay again to repair a transit port in South Korea that can stop ships!" ”

Wang Qiang was happy: "The money of this shipbuilding team, plus the money for repairing the wharf, doesn't it pit this Vale to?" ”

Su Su sneered: "So Brother Qiang was right before, who called him Brazil?" He doesn't have the strength of the country, and he doesn't take the big patron in his eyes, do you really think he can't be cured? ”

Wang Qiang smiled: "It's still the fault of greed, right?" ”

Gan Ning also smiled: "I don't understand, they have such a good iron mine and don't develop their own steel mills, why do they have so much money to toss the fleet?" ”

Su Su smiled: "After all, steel mills need technology, maybe they think it's convenient to sell mines." ”

Gan Ning shook his head and smiled: "This is because I don't think there is much rice in a small bowl, so I use a big golden bowl to ask for rice, what do these people say?" ”

Wang Qiang was surprised: "It seems that Australia also sells mines, and there are no steel mills?" Why is that? ”

Su Su smiled: "Brother Qiang, steelmaking requires a lot of water, and Australia is a desert as a whole, where does the water come from?" ”

Wang Qiang said ashamedly: "I see! ”

At this moment, Jiang Gan flipped through the account book: "...... In related news, according to the Wall Street Journal's June 4 news "Iron Ore Producers Succumb to the Chinese Market", China buys two-thirds of the world's exported iron ore, and China's demand for the quality of iron ore is higher and higher. This is the result of the transformation of Chinese steel companies to a larger and more environmentally friendly country, and also the result of China's elimination of old steel mills that use low-quality iron ore......"

"In order to cater to the Chinese market, international miners, who have struggled in the crisis, have had to take risks and invest in new mines to produce better quality iron ore. Vale reopened idle plants, BHP Billiton launched high-end deposits and FMG began closing low-end iron ore operations...... Companies that specialise in exporting low-quality iron ore are no longer favored by investors......"

Wang Qiangle said: "Is this China's complete dominance of the iron ore market?" ”

Su Su smiled: "Yes, Mr. Jiang's news is really exciting!" ”
