86. You're crazy
Without waiting for Xu Hengqiang to answer, Shen Jie was startled at first, "Minmetals section exploration project, you dare to sign a VAM contract?" ”
They have all been to the five sections of the Liangping mining area, and they know the geological conditions of each place and the old information in the past.
Everyone's heart concluded that continuing to look for mines in these places did not make a mistake at all!
Minerals can't be conjured out of thin air.
Counterfeit?
This kind of shoddy approach is not impossible, but it is too difficult.
After all, the Liangping mining area is the mining right of Fu Phosphorus Group, and they have their own exploration technology company and drilling company.
Each borehole is drilled by the Fu Phosphorus Group itself, and there is no possibility of falsification at all.
Wang Dasheng glanced down at the contract in Xu Hengqiang's hand, the text thickness was thicker than the contract in his and Shen Jie's hands, and he believed his guess more and more, "Old Xu, you are crazy!" ”
We are all peers, often meet, and even occasionally serve as acceptance experts to each other's project review and acceptance, and we have a good relationship with each other.
He was really anxious for Xu Hengqiang.
Gambling contracts are easy to sign, but people who can make a lot of money are really rare.
In the final analysis, prospecting is a low-probability event, and most of the time it is a bamboo basket to draw water.
Who wants to risk breaking the bank if they can collect a fee safely?
Shen Jie looked at Xu Hengqiang's black face, and after a long time, he said abruptly: "Since I came to work in Wangshan Company, I have never signed a VAM contract for more than ten years.
As one of the team members, I didn't even dare to think about it, because the pressure and responsibility to bear were too great!
If you fail once, it will be basically difficult to turn over. ”
Wang Dasheng patted Xu Hengqiang's shoulder to comfort, "I hope you made a decision after careful consideration, and after the project is over, I want to eat your celebration wine." ”
For the blessing of his old friend, Xu Hengqiang reluctantly showed a smile, "I hope so." ”
Four simple words can be regarded as giving Shen Jie and Wang Dasheng a positive answer.
The two glanced at each other, and they both sweated for Xu Hengqiang.
Luo Qiqi probably had something to tell the secretary just now, and then he came out of the conference room, glanced at a few people, and said with a smile: "I have already ordered a table of wine and food, and everyone will celebrate together in the evening." ”
Xu Hengqiang and Xu Xin, father and son, left the headquarters building of Fufu Phosphorus Group together.
Xu Hengqiang needs to go back to the company and put the contract in the safe.
His hand on the steering wheel was still trembling slightly.
Turning his head and glancing at his son, he didn't see a trace of nervousness on Xu Xin's face, and sighed: "When I signed that gambling contract back then, I wasn't worried at all, and I was full of confidence. ”
Xu Xin glanced at his father, "Are you nervous now?" ”
"I'm nervous."
"Why don't you drive for me?"
"This car is not easy to drive, you are not used to driving, it will be there soon."
Xu Xin did not insist, and he was not under much pressure for the VAM contract signed today, because he had seen with his own eyes that there was indeed a third layer of phosphate block rock underground, and the grade and thickness were very considerable.
However, there were some clauses in the contract that he couldn't figure out.
"Dad, the incentive mechanism in the contract, after reaching the medium-sized scale of 5 million tons of recoverable reserves, 10 million will be rewarded for every million tons of additional reserves, don't you think it's outrageous?"
"Why do you think so?"
"Think about it, Fu Phosphorus Group currently holds hundreds of millions of tons of phosphate rock reserves, if every 1 million tons more in the exploration stage will reward the explorer with 10 million, he must not spend billions of reward fees!" Xu Xin took it for granted that this was the case.
"You want to be beautiful!"
Xu Hengqiang shook his head, "If it is a place with huge prospecting potential, they will not sign a VAM contract." That is to say, like the Liangping mining area, there is basically no hope of prospecting, and they have to spend some money to make a final attempt, so they will provide this kind of VAM contract. ”
"That makes sense." Xu Xin nodded approvingly.
"Big mining companies are not afraid of spending money, but they are afraid of not finding mines."
"I can understand."
Xu Xin looked at his father's side face and asked, "Why did Luo Qiqi invite me to Fufu Group in the end?" ”
Xu Hengqiang thought about it and replied: "It's probably because the investment in prospecting is too large, and the results are not good, so I want to try it with you." ”
"Chrome?"
"In the last ten years, the price of chrome ore has increased several times, and the profit is very attractive."
"I know that the overall price of the metal industry has increased over the years, but chrome ore has increased several times, which is a bit exaggerated, is there any reason?"
"Do you know what is the proportion of our Huaxia chrome ore imports?"
"I don't know."
"99 percent, and domestic production accounts for only 1 percent."
"It's horrible." Xu Xin exclaimed.
"So far, only one large chrome deposit has been proved in the entire Huaxia country, and almost all other chrome ore points and belts are poor ore.
Under the influence of various factors, the price of chrome ore has risen year after year. ”
"The demand is continuous, but the supply is all dependent on imports, which is easy to have problems."
"So over the years, chrome exploration has been encouraged everywhere. Fufu Group's investment in this area has been continuous for more than ten years, and the total investment amount may exceed one billion, so far, it has not found a chrome deposit worth mining. ”
"Dad, you must know that chrome ore is not easy to find, why did you sign a gambling contract with Fu Phosphorus Group to find chrome ore back then?"
This question brings back memories.
In Xu Hengqiang's mind, various pictures emerged, "At that time, the minimum guarantee task set in the contract was very low. ”
"That's why?"
"The reason is very complicated, and it is impossible to say that it can rise to become a philosophical argument."
The father and son were chatting, and Xu Xin's phone rang suddenly.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was Wu Chuchu.
"Where are you?"
Wu Chuchu's style was as crisp as ever, and his voice was like the light cry of a lark.
"Just came out of the headquarters of the Fufu Phosphorus Group."
"Today, Friday, you're about to get off work, and we're going to play football together?"
"Huh?"
"There are some things on the company's side that I need to report to you, and also, what you did at the headquarters of Fulin Group today, someone has already called me to tell me, and I have something I want to talk to you about."
"I'm going to look for you at the company?"
"No, you go straight to the Happy Football School, I know you can play football."
Hanging up the phone, Xu Xin looked at the phone screen with a strange expression.
For the first time in history, a girl invited him to play football with him.
Xu Hengqiang glanced at Xu Xin, "Something?" ”
"Can I not go to dinner at night?"
For social drinking, Xu Xin is really unwilling, but the amount of alcohol is too poor.
"If you have something, you can go and get busy." Xu Hengqiang didn't care, "Do you want me to send you over?" ”
"No, I'll be here if you park."
Xu Xin got out of the car, first bought a big bag of apples, flagged down a taxi, and went straight to the Happy Football School.
