Chapter 586: Let's see how they take it

Chu Hao glanced at Ling Shuang with disdain, "You people are hypocritical, listen to this, stay for a few more years and look at him, what do you look at him? ”

Ling Shuang shook her head helplessly, glanced at Chu Hao, and didn't bother to argue with Chu Hao.

Although the words are said so, some words can not always be said explicitly, it is better to be obscure, and if it is too clear, it will seem too white and vulgar.

Chu Hao stretched out his hand to grab Ling Shuang's waist, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, "Okay, don't worry, it's just some jumping clowns, local chickens and dogs, and they can't make any big waves." ”

Ling Shuang gasped, then turned her head and stared at Chu Hao, "I find that I really don't know you more and more, this breath is already big enough to break through the sky, such a consortium of companies, you actually say that it's just a group of jumping clowns, local chickens and dogs, I really don't know what kind of existence can make you see it." ”

"That's it. Chu Hao said confidently.

Indeed, in Chu Hao's eyes, these companies and research institutes seem to have occupied all the markets in terms of R&D, production, and research.

And, perhaps, with the support of greedy financial firms like Morgan.

After all, if these big companies are crocodiles, hyenas, then these financial companies are gluttons, and for the sake of profit, they even dare to attack the financial system of a country.

Soros's actions in Asia are the best proof of this.

Chu Hao didn't believe that there would be no presence of these financial companies in such a big matter.

But in Chu Hao's eyes, it was really so.

No one can stop the rolling wheel of history, and no one can stop the progress of science and technology, just like the Qing Dynasty closed off the country, not to be an ostrich, burying his head in the sand, and he can be safe.

This time, the joint statement of several major steel companies is indeed a killer move for Huapan.

actually stated that the permanent sales price would be 5% lower than Huapan, which made it clear that Huapan had to be put to death, and it would not die!

Thinking of this, Chu Hao couldn't help but complain, the free market that he said was good, the anti-monopoly that he said was good, all of them would be gone, and the face of the Western world could be seen from this.

"They cut the price, we also cut the price, it doesn't matter, our cost is much lower than theirs, although not to say that only 50% of them are like the original, but even if they have also developed a low-cost titanium alloy, but our cost is only 60% of them at most, and they can't fight the price. ”

"Besides, now we only occupy 10% of the titanium alloy market, because it is not us who has lost the most from price reduction. Chu Hao said indifferently.

Ling Shuang was a little hesitant, "The price reduction is certain, but will they finally refuse to import Huapan's titanium alloy, then it will be troublesome." ”

"No, it won't. ”

Chu Hao said confidently.

"If they can really talk about those automobile manufacturing companies, aviation manufacturing companies, chemical equipment manufacturing companies, and medical device companies, then do they need to scrap such a big Zhou Zhang, just let these companies give us a notice and sever the relationship, why is it so troublesome. ”

"The reason why they didn't do it is very simple, it's because they can't do it!" Chu Hao said categorically.

As for why these companies can't do it, because if they do, they will be permanently tied to the steel companies of ArcelorMittal Group.

At that time, even if Huapan lowers the price, they will not have any choice, they can only let ArcelorMittal Group and them lie on themselves to suck blood.

Seeing what could have been their profit margin being eaten away by ArcelorMittal Group.

After all, if Huapan is really completely kicked out, then ArcelorMittal Group, a monopoly, and other world-famous steel companies will definitely not kindly reduce prices.

Just look at how greedy the capitalists are, look at what they themselves are, in fact, it is clear.

At that time, they could only watch that the price of Huapan's titanium alloy was much cheaper than ArcelorMittal's, but they could not do anything, now each company may lose tens of millions of dollars every year, and in the future, perhaps the amount of loss per company can reach hundreds of millions of dollars, which they cannot tolerate.

Steven is also very clear about this, so he did not choose to use greater influence to block Huapan, but chose to fight a price war with Huapan.

Expelled Huapan in the form of market competition.

In fact, the deeper meaning is that Vale is like they want to blackmail Huaxia, because Huaxia makes much more profits from iron ore than Vale.

Iron ore is indispensable for the construction and development of the entire country, and once enough iron ore is lost, the operation of the country will come to a standstill.

In contrast, Vale sells iron ore for a profit, which is worth a few bucks.

As the so-called jade does not touch the clay pot, Huaxia can't afford to put itself into it just to sanction Vale.

That's why Vale has nothing to fear.

And now, the situation is reversed, for those automobile manufacturing companies, aviation manufacturing companies, chemical equipment manufacturing companies, and medical device companies, Huapan supplies titanium alloys, and they earn more profits.

A titanium alloy rim is only worth one or two thousand yuan, while the car company can sell it for tens of thousands of yuan, and the price has increased dozens of times.

They make more profit from titanium, and they are even more inseparable from it.

And more importantly, they are afraid.

It was not that there was no blockade before, and Huapan was sanctioned.

But as a result, the three major metallurgical equipment manufacturers in Danieli were bitten hard and took up a lot of market share of the titanium alloy production line, and it seems that Huapan still has the intention of killing them all and directly expelling them from the titanium alloy equipment market.

As a result, ArcelorMittal, which was in charge of this matter at that time, was also disgraced and paid a big price, which can be regarded as appeasing Danieli, the three major metallurgical equipment manufacturers.

After all, if it weren't for ArcelorMittal Group to blockade Huapan, Danieli, the three major metallurgical equipment manufacturers, would not have suffered such heavy losses, but should have been able to get enough profits from Huapan, at least the equipment used by Huapan to produce titanium alloys should be their company's right, not Huapan's own.

Therefore, these internationally renowned large companies are also afraid that if Huapan is blocked, Huapan will come again, and they will seize their market.

That's really stealing chickens and rice.

Ling Shuang was still a little hesitant, but after a long time, she still nodded.

The truth, she doesn't know, and she can even say that she knows it better than Chu Hao, but she really can't do it, Chu Hao is so calm, it can even be said that she has no fear.

In fact, the reason is very simple, if Chu Hao is willing, he can even beat the price of titanium alloy to the price of cabbage.

After all, the cost of producing titanium alloy in the Qin and Han Empires, according to calculations, is only a few percent of the current price of titanium alloys, and Chu Hao does not believe that ArcelorMittal Group's cost can be lower than that of the Qin and Han Empires.

This is the power of science and technology, and in the face of advanced science and technology, all conspiracies and tricks will be completely crushed and annihilated.

Of course, Chu Hao will not really hit the price of titanium alloy to only a few percent of the current price now.

To do so is purely to the detriment of oneself and others.

Not to mention, if you really get the Qin and Han Empire's equipment for producing titanium alloys, how much effort will it take.

And the key problem is that Chu Hao can obviously win this competition with 80% or even 90% of the existing selling price, but he is still crazy because he has a sick brain, and he has to hit the price so low.

Watching the profits that should have belonged to him flow into those car manufacturing companies, airlines, and so on.

At most, in the end, those car manufacturers and airlines will also reduce their prices.

But in this way, Hua Pan said more, and it was just a name for contributing to the people of the world, and the benefits could not be reaped at all.

Therefore, unless Chu Hao is really sick in the brain, he will definitely not do this, he does not have such a noble discipline.

Besides, if such equipment is really made, the state will first invite him to tea, and ask what is going on.

If he doesn't make a good fuss, he will be dissected on the operating table.

After all, the equipment of the Qin and Han Empires is obviously beyond that of this era, there are too many, and it can even be said that it is the product of aliens at first glance.

Besides, Chu Hao is almost certain that the cost of the low-cost titanium alloy that Steven and the others have researched is at most only 80% of the original cost.

In other words, it has reached the level that Hua Pan is now showing to the outside world, and it is also the first stage declared by Chu Hao's thesis.

Perhaps Chu Hao's estimate will be somewhat incorrect, but Chu Hao can be sure that the current research progress of Professor Steven will definitely not be said to have reached the actual cost level of Huapan, that is to say, only about 456% of the original cost.

Compared with the cost of Hua Pan and the cost of Professor Steven, the profit margin is four or five times larger, so when it comes to fighting a price war, Chu Hao is really worthy of them.

Now ArcelorMittal Group's titanium alloy price has been reduced to 85 US dollars, so we will directly reduce it to 75 US dollars to see if they can keep up. Ling Shuang's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said loudly.

Chu Hao paused for a moment, then nodded.

Ling Shuang is much more domineering than he imagined, generally externally, the price of Huapan's titanium alloy is 90 US dollars, and now Ling Shuang has directly dropped 15 US dollars, that is, about 16 percent, which is really ruthless. ‘

You must know that the outside world has always estimated the cost of Huapan titanium alloy to be about 80 US dollars, and now the actual cost of ArcelorMittal Group is so much.

In other words, ArcelorMittal's titanium alloy was sold for $86 before, which is four dollars lower than Huapan's current price, so they still have something to earn.

And now that Ling Shuang said this, he directly reduced the price of Huapan to seventy-five US dollars, directly breaking through the cost line of ArcelorMittal Group.

If they really insist on the price being five percent lower than Huapan, then their selling price will be around seventy-two dollars, which means that for every kilogram of titanium alloy they produce, they will have to pay eight dollars, which is ten percent of the cost.

In this way, it is impossible to say that ArcelorMittal Group will lose more than one billion dollars, or even two billion dollars, every year.

You know, Huapan occupies 10% of the titanium alloy market, while ArcelorMittal Group occupies the remaining 90% of the market share.

According to this calculation, ArcelorMittal Group, only losing money, will reach 9% of the titanium alloy market, which is about the same as the current revenue of Huapan Special Steel.

Huapan Special Steel's annual revenue is about 1.5 billion US dollars.

But one thing to know is that the titanium alloy market is a rapidly expanding market, this year's titanium alloy market share is 1.5 billion US dollars, next year may be 1.8 billion, or even 2 billion.

If ArcelorMittal Group steals another part of Huapan's market share, then they will lose the two billion US dollars!

At most, Huapan's profit is lower, Huapan's actual cost is about forty-five dollars, and if it is seventy-five dollars, Huapan still has a profit margin of thirty dollars, and it will definitely not lose money.

In other words, Huapan's biggest loss, that is, the market will not only not expand, but its share will shrink a lot. Chu Hao said slowly.

Ling Shuang shook his head, "But if you actually think about it, I'm afraid that the market share will not decrease, but it will expand significantly." I don't believe that ArcelorMittal can bite the bullet and would rather lose 10 percent of their capital, losing $2 billion a year, and supply a large number of markets. ”

In fact, ArcelorMittal Group's choice can only be to either give up the price war with Huapan, or reduce supply and production to reduce losses. ”

Chu Hao thought about it and nodded, that's pretty much what it meant.

It is an absolute truth that there are people who buy and sell heads, and no one does what they owe to do.

Just said that those car manufacturing companies, airlines are greedy, there is no doubt that ArcelorMittal Group is also greedy, how can they not tolerate their own profits, into the airlines and their pockets.

Not to mention, it's not a small amount of money, but a big two billion dollars.

There are only a few hundred companies in the world that can make profits of more than two billion US dollars, and ArcelorMittal Group cannot bear such losses no matter how rich they are.

"Then next, it's up to ArcelorMittal to see how they take over. The corners of Chu Hao's mouth pulled out a smile that was indescribable and inexplicable.
