Chapter 479: Don't Rush to Thessaloniki Yet
Looking at Fu Ke's back as he danced and left, when only he and Zhong Bai were left in the office, Lu Xudong couldn't help but praise: "Xiao Zhong, Xiao Zhong, how can you let me say it?" It's always time for the situation to freeze, and you can always come up with something new! Now that I have this new situation in my hand, I think Fu Ke will be much tougher when he goes back to negotiate with the source city, and he is not afraid that they will be stuck with the loan again to let Fu Wei urge us to set the location of the machinery factory. ”
Zhong Bai said very modestly: "It's really not that I deliberately revealed this news today, it's because Associate Professor Tong Sifang was too busy some time ago and didn't have time to test the ore to confirm my conjecture." In fact, it wasn't until I saw the report at home at nine o'clock last night that I felt at ease. ”
Zhong Bai did not lie, he didn't expect that Fu Ke would suddenly propose the matter of site selection in person today, just now he was just a whim, thinking that adding some of his own chips to the mine could make Fu Ke's waist harder.
But I didn't expect that Lu Xudong's political consciousness was high, and he immediately linked the matter of site selection with the news of his own marble!
"What kind of marble can be exported, and there is a lot of demand from foreign countries, how much moisture is there?" Lu Xudong hurriedly took a look.
"There is no moisture at all, as I said, those are conservative estimates, and the real situation may be much more optimistic than imagined!" Zhong Bai pondered for a moment and said: "But if there is no investigation, there is no right to speak, this is just Yu Dongfeng on a business trip in Europe, I asked him to inquire about some real-time news as soon as possible, and you can refer to it at that time." ”
"Okay." Lu Xudong nodded, thought about it and asked, "Xiaoyu went abroad again?" Isn't the first batch of 4,500 hydraulic pillars already imported from Canton Customs and used in the mines? What else did he go to Ukraine for? ”
"The other person is not in Ukraine, and now it is in other parts of Europe, anyway, it is also an errand, so I will let him investigate this matter by the way." Of course, Zhong Bai would not tell Lu Xudong that Yu Dongfeng had already set off for Greece yesterday to carry out a trip to dig people, but he only vaguely mentioned it: "When there is news from Yu Dongfeng's side, I will report back to you!" ”
……
It just so happened that when he was about to get off work in the afternoon, Yu Dongfeng's call also arrived.
It took him a lot of time to apply for a Greek visa, but Yu Dongfeng did not forget Zhong Bai's entrustment, as long as he landed, he must make a phone call to Zhong Bai as soon as possible to report his safety.
At the expense of 40 drachmas to find a phone at the airport that can make international calls, Yu Dongfeng looked at his watch, at this time at half past ten in the morning local time, Hua Guo, who thought that the seven-hour time difference, should not have gotten off work?
"Zhong Bai, I'm at the airport in Athens, Greece." Yu Dongfeng grabbed Xu Xiuxiu, who was looking at Xu Xiuxiu who was excited to go abroad for the first time, and hurriedly said to Zhong Bai on the other end of the phone: "We are going to take the train to Thessaloniki City, where the D.D mining company is located, in the afternoon, and we are expected to arrive there in the middle of the night, and we can start ...... tomorrow."
The city of Thessaloniki mentioned by Yu Dongfeng is the second largest city in northern Greece, with a population of 800,000, and is also an important industrial and tourist city in Greece.
In addition to the presence of a large number of mines, the most important thing is that the headquarters of the D.D Mining Company is located there.
"Wait a minute, don't rush to Thessaloniki to find Nikolaos." Zhong Bai immediately interrupted Yu Dongfeng's plan: "I need you to stay in Athens for two days first, ask for some information, and if the progress is fast, you can also take a boat to Italy and Rome to ask." ”
"What's the information?" Yu Dongfeng didn't expect the plan to change, and immediately asked.
"About the marble market." Zhong Bai said on the phone with some excitement: "I need you to find the local high-end building materials market, ask about the price of marble in the past three months, and remember that it is at least above the market average." ”
"What the hell is this? Do you want to buy it? The second monk Yu Dongfeng was puzzled and asked.
"It's not to buy, it's to sell, the associated marble veins were found in the underground bauxite mine in Heyuan City, I already have a full set of mining plans and programs here, and now I need to implement the real-time situation of the European market, you help me inquire, remember that this matter is very important, if there is any news, as long as I am at work, you can call over!"
Zhong Bai explained to Yu Dongfeng in detail the latest scene that happened in the provincial hall today, and Yu Dongfeng couldn't bear to hear the whole plan, and immediately asked: "I said Brother Zhong Bai, now that the affairs of our machinery factory have not been straightened out, what kind of marble mining and processing plant are you going to get?" How much do you have to invest? ”
"It's not that we invest money, this processing plant is built by the mine itself." Zhong Bai explained: "This is not a good way to help Fu Ke fundamentally solve the current dilemma, if the marble mining and processing plant can be built in a short time, then the mine will no longer have to worry about the future!" ”
"That's a good thing, but we don't get any good. You just said that you have to go to Heyuan City again, so how can you squeeze out time to do the site selection work of the new machinery factory? Yu Dongfeng couldn't help but sigh: "You are really racking your brains for public affairs!" ”
"I am the head of the Mining and Metallurgical Section of the Department of Industry, and it is my job to help the mine turn losses into profits." Zhong Bai didn't care about Yu Dongfeng's complaints, and continued: "However, this matter is not completely for the public, and the company also has benefits. ”
"What's the company's revenue?" Yu Dongfeng came as soon as he heard this interest.
"The underground bauxite mine in Heyuan City has never carried out export business, and in order to produce sales results quickly, it will definitely be too late to train its own overseas sales team." Zhong Bai's thinking is very clear: "And Baifeng Trading Company has the experience of importing and exporting commodities in the Soviet Union some time ago, and it is not a natural thing to be a foreign trade agent to extract a certain profit from it!" ”
"And don't forget, if we do such a big favor to the mine in this matter, it means that Fu Wei owes us a lot of favors, if the new machinery factory is really located in Heyuan City, hehe...... Do you think that's even better news? Over the phone, Yu Dongfeng even heard the hint of treachery in Zhong Bai's laughter!
"You've decided that you want to build the factory in Heyuan?" Yu Dongfeng was surprised: "Didn't you say that you would go to Chongqing in the west, North China, and Northeast China to investigate?" So what happens next? ”
"Not necessarily in Heyuan City, but at present, Heyuan City has shown a lot of intentionality, maybe the real conditions are better than other places, we can't consider it...... In short, I have all this in my heart, you first follow what I said to do a good job of inquiring about the marble market! Zhong Bai replied confidently.
