Chapter 888 - Purchase of Siberian Minerals
A paramilitary alliance does not have the rigid requirements of a military alliance, and there is a clear difference in the depth of cooperation.
The paramilitary alliance between two countries is generally a relationship and common interest, which has not yet reached the need to form a military alliance, but requires a certain combination, thus giving birth to a relationship.
It is as if the current hometown and Russia, under the pressure of the United States, have almost reached the standard of a paramilitary alliance, and it is also an economic alliance.
What Cai Ruichen needs is such a relationship, so he is very easy to answer this question about Pu and Jing.
"Mr. Pu and Jing, if the future technology group and Russia get too close, the United States will inevitably be dissatisfied, yes or no?" Cai Ruichen didn't answer in a hurry, but asked.
"As Americans are accustomed to, it is." Pu and Jing replied.
That is to say, cooperation with Russia will inevitably lead to a rift in the relationship between the future technology group and the United States, or even a direct rupture. Therefore, once it cooperates with Russia, Future Technology Group needs a friend who can help resist American pressure.
Otherwise, does Mr. Pu and Jing think that if the Future Technology Group breaks with the United States, then the United States will let the Future Technology Group continue to develop? Cai Ruichen asked again.
Two simple questions, Pu and Jing can naturally understand what Cai Ruichen means, in fact, this is also Cai Ruichen's explanation to him, explaining why the two sides want to establish a paramilitary alliance.
The progress of the cooperation between the future technology group and Russia, although Prussia and Beijing dare not say that it is 100% visible. But once the two sides formally cooperate in an all-round way, the United States will definitely not make the Future Technology Group feel better.
Pu and Jing think that they are in Cai Ruichen's position. If you really need to change the partner, you must ensure that you are not in a dangerous situation.
As the so-called gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, in the end, everyone can understand.
After pondering for a while, after understanding Cai Ruichen's actual purpose, he said decisively: "If the United States wants to take military action against the Future Science and Technology Group, then Russia will definitely not sit idly by." ”
"If Russia in the future is in the interests of the Middle East and Europe. In the face of a direct military threat from the United States, the future technology group will also firmly support Russia, even if it is a direct military force. Cai Ruichen also said very decisively.
After the two finished speaking. At the same time, they all laughed behind the phone, such a result was acceptable to Pu and Jing, and Cai Ruichen was also quite satisfied.
But. The real problem is yet to come. Especially for Pu and Beijing, Russia's current crisis still needs Cai Ruichen's help!
At the beginning of establishing a good relationship, Pu and Jing did not have any intention of being hypocritical, and said directly: "However, there is one thing that needs Mr. Cai's help now......"
Before Pu and Jing finished speaking, Cai Ruichen interrupted him. said: "Actually, I also have a big deal that I want to discuss with Mr. Pu and Jing. ”
Pu and Jing, who were interrupted from speaking, had no time to be unhappy. As soon as he heard about the big deal, he immediately came to his senses, Cai Ruichen had already understood his purpose, and then said, "Mr. Cai, please speak." ”
"In Siberia, near the Bering Strait, I heard that Russia's land resources department has developed a huge copper mine, but because of the depth of the copper mine and the perennial cold weather, the cost of mining is too high, so Russia has always wanted to find an investor to mine this copper mine." Cai Ruichen said directly.
How could it be impossible for Pu and Beijing to know about this copper mine, which is known as the largest chicken rib in the Russian mining industry, and it is a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless.
Because the place is so remote, close to the Arctic Circle, it is covered with snow and ice all year round, and it is impossible to go outside in winter.
The proven reserves of copper ore are indeed huge, but if you want to develop that place, Russia simply does not have such a huge amount of money.
What's more, even if the copper mine can be mined smoothly, it is a loss-making transaction in terms of the cost of investment.
You know, copper mining requires not only huge power demand, but also a large number of heavy construction machinery and enough workers.
Then dig deeper step by step, once mined, you must first dig out all the soil layers on the copper mine, not to say that you can drill a well, and then you can get out of the mine, the copper mine is not so simple.
You must know that the world's largest copper mine, the super copper mine in India, has been dug nearly 20,000 meters underground, which is a super project.
Russia has no money to develop it, and even the many veins near this copper mine are not capable of developing.
Russia, which has been trying to find a way to find buyers for these minerals, has not had any investors willing to invest in cold Siberia for many years.
At one time, several American companies were willing, but Russia was unwilling, for the simple reason that that place was Alaska of the United States, how could the Bering Strait be allowed to cross the Americans casually.
No matter how good the investment is, it is impossible for the Russians to accept it.
So, in the end, even Russia gave up, and all these years, it was as if those minerals did not exist.
When the global temperature continues to warm in the future and the Arctic Circle sea route can be opened, there will really be people willing to invest in the mining of these minerals.
Pu and Jing didn't expect that the big deal was actually this, in fact, it was really a big deal.
"If Mr. Cai is willing to develop the minerals of northern Siberia, then Russia will welcome it very much, and guarantee that Mr. Cai will be given the greatest discount in terms of price." Pu and Jing immediately said with some excitement.
"Investment, as long as the price is right, I will not refuse." Cai Ruichen said affirmatively.
"If the future technology group is developed, then I can make a decision to give a seven-fold discount on the international average ratio." Pu and Jing thought for a while and said.
A very fair price, or the biggest concession given by Pu and Beijing in the upcoming cooperation between the two sides, the most important thing is that he does not want to give up, because once the future technology group is willing to invest, it is enough to bring a lot of money to Russia.
"No, I'm going to buy it out, and I'll give a price directly when the time comes, I believe that compared to slow development, what Russia needs is a sum of available funds that can be obtained immediately." Cai Ruichen rejected the preferential offer of Pu and Jing, and said very simply.
Pu and Jing weighed it in their hearts, and then made a decisive decision, saying: "I agree with this proposal, but in terms of price, it still takes time to calculate the reserves." ”
