MTL - Centennial Family, Rising From Hong Kong Island-Chapter 293
You must know that the Great Celestial Dynasty in later generations was disgusted by the iron ore of Tuao, and was completely strangled by Tuao.
At that time, the mainland had a large population, and the demand for steel ranked first in the world. It needed to consume a lot of steel every year to meet the needs of its own citizens.
Although the iron ore reserves in the mainland ranks fourth in the world, the quality of iron ore is not good and there are many impurities.
The cost of refining the iron ore mined by oneself to a qualified level is very high, which is much higher than the iron ore directly imported from abroad.
Therefore, most of the steel in the mainland needs to be imported, almost 80%.
The iron ore of Tuao has become the direct source of the mainland.
However, Tuao, the big white sheep, is very bad, and it has various restrictions on the mainland and various restrictions on exports.
The mainland is as uncomfortable as being strangled by the neck.
Therefore, Su Shaoze does not intend to let go of iron ore mining.
Still the same sentence, steel is not only related to monetary interests, but also related to deeper interests, status and right to speak!
Thirty years from now, who knows what the situation will look like?
Su Shaoze didn't trust anyone, he could only trust the power in his own hands.
Mastering the steel resources, Su Shaoze can increase his own weight and have more capital for negotiation. Even if it is cooperation, he must have his own status.
rather than a being abandoned at will.
"Although I feel a little anxious to enter the steel industry at this time, it is easy to break the capital chain and cause other chain reactions."
"But this is indeed a rare opportunity." Qiao Na of the think tank said, it is a pity to give up this opportunity.
"Don't worry about the issue of the capital chain, I know it." Su Shaoze said in a calm voice.
Although the Galaxy Group has just acquired Standard Chartered Bank, which cost more than one billion US dollars.
The Galaxy Group is obviously out of money, but the Galaxy Group has a big blood bank.
If you run out of money, you will continue to borrow money from Mao Ziguo branch of Wing Lung Bank, and you must drain Mao Ziguo.
If it wasn't enough, Su Shaoze still had a hole card.
At the beginning, 30 billion Hong Kong dollars was invested in the foreign exchange market of the island country, and now it has risen to 80 billion.
If you need money urgently, it is time to get rid of these foreign exchange.
"You guys are ready to form or acquire a mining company." Su Shaoze said, he doesn't need to worry about this matter, the think tank will take care of it.
"Our group has never had a foundation for iron ore mining, so I suggest buying a small mining company directly in Tuao."
"Since then, we have enough technology and equipment, but the problem is, we don't know where the iron ore veins are." Li Yunjie shook his head and said.
His strength is the operation of financial business, but it is difficult for him to find iron ore.
But iron ore veins are very important.
If the Galaxy Group bought a ore vein directly from another mining company, it would probably not be taken as a big deal and slaughtered.
It will even bully you as a new chick, shoddy, or disguise a barren land to deceive you that there are iron ore veins underneath.
I was stunned after buying it.
It's not something that can happen, it's something that can happen at any time in the barren land of Western Australia.
Don't overestimate the integrity of Tuao.
So, as a mining company, the best way to make money is to discover a brand new unmined vein and buy it.
It just so happened that Su Shaoze opened the eyes of God and had memories of later generations. He vaguely remembered where the largest iron ore veins in Tuao were.
Looking at the map of Tu'ao spread on the table, he looked at a barren land factory.
Chapter 509 On the verge of bankruptcy, Clark Mining Company [Seeking flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】
Tuao is one of the countries with the richest mineral resources in the world, with the largest mining volume and the largest export volume.
It has also spawned many mining companies, and Clark Mining is one of them.
It's just that compared to other mining giants, Clark Mining is not large in scale, with total assets of about US$500 million and more than 500 regular employees. It is a medium-sized mining company.
But today Clark Mining is completely in a huge crisis.
To be precise, they were tricked by someone.
"Fuck, shit, **** bitch~"
On this day, a huge roar came from the office of the chairman of Clark Mining Company, and the voice was full of fury and anger.
And can hear the sound of smashing things.
Outside the office, many employees in the hall looked helpless and confused when they heard the roar.
Over the past few days, their chairman, Mr. Clark, has been in this state, sometimes roaring in anger, and sometimes smoking a cigarette alone, which is very desolate.
And these employees also know that they are about to lose their jobs and need to find a new job as soon as possible.
Because the company is likely to go bankrupt soon.
"It's hard to imagine that such a large mine has an estimated iron ore reserve of one billion tons, but I didn't expect it to be fake."
"Before this, we didn't find a single problem."
"It's crazy, those **** are a bunch of lunatics, and they should all go to hell."
"Go to hell? Hmph, they might be taking our company's money and lying on the beach in Hawaii for vacation!"
"Oh, poor Mr. Clark~"
"His company is dead, and we're going to get a new job."
"How can it be so easy to find a suitable job now? Even if you go to other mining companies, you may not be valued, and you have to start from scratch."
"Shit, I just bought a house last month and still owe a lot of money to the bank, Fake!"
...
The people in the Clark Company were panicking, and they all gathered together in twos and threes, each talking in a low voice.
He looked very confused and helpless, and sighed.
It's funny to say, just a week ago, their company planted a big root.
Because the government has promulgated a policy that further loosens the restrictions on mining rights, as long as ore veins can be found, they can purchase mining rights from the government.
In this case, Clark Mining is also ambitiously preparing to expand its scale and develop new veins.
But where is a ore vein so easy to find, it requires a lot of human, material and financial resources and a lot of time to drill holes in the desert next door.
And most of the time, it was useless work, wasting a lot of energy and money, and finally found nothing.
But at this time, another mining company announced the discovery of a new vein with reserves estimated at one billion tons.
It was a newly established mining company with a small scale and lack of funds and technology. It was a fluke to discover that mine, but it was difficult to independently mine the mine.
So I want to seek cooperation with other mining companies to develop that new vein together.
After this matter was known by Clark Company, the chairman Mr. Clark burst out with great interest.
Immediately sent someone to the ore vein to conduct a general survey, predicting that one billion tons of iron ore may be buried underground, and then negotiated with the mining company.
Instead of cooperating to mine the mine, it was directly preparing to acquire that company.
In the end, after a fierce competition, Clark Company defeated several other mining giants and spent 210 million US dollars to successfully win 80% of the company's shares.
At that moment, the employees of Clark Company were very excited, the company's scale expanded, there was a new vein to develop, and their income would also increase.
And just when Clark Corporation prepared everything and was going to mine that new lode, a shocking news came.
The construction team found that there were no large ore veins under that place at all, but only a small amount of iron ore with very little reserves.
At this moment, the chairman, Mr. Clark, was stunned, and everyone was shocked.
Didn't it say before that there are one billion tons of reserves?
Moreover, the survey team of Clark Company has also personally visited the survey, how could it not be?
In a panic, Mr. Clark rushed to the scene in person. After several investigations, he finally confirmed one thing.
He was tricked by someone!
This vein is fake, there is no billion tons of iron ore at all, and some are just a pile of broken stones.
And he also understood how those people deceived him and swindled.
When Clark realized that he had been deceived, he immediately called the police, but it was too late.
The company had already gone to the empty building, and everyone had disappeared without a trace. I am afraid that they have already left Tuao, and it is almost impossible to get the money back.
Mr. Clark was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He actually bought a pile of broken rocks and shares in a shell company with US$210 million.
Great disaster!
What does $210 million mean to Clark Corporation?
That means they have lost all of their cash flow and are saddled with huge debts.
And they got nothing.
Everyone knew that the Clark Company was doomed, and it would not be long before the bank came to ask for debts. At that time, the Clark Company could only declare bankruptcy.
Therefore, Clark's employees these days are not motivated to work, and Chairman Clark has also been greatly stimulated, and his spirit has become a little abnormal.
Sometimes roaring in anger, sometimes crying in a low voice.
The 5.1 of his life's efforts is gone.
And just when Clark Company was about to go bankrupt, on this day, several Mercedes-Benz cars suddenly parked in front of the company's door.
Li Yunjie, the head of Su Shaoze's think tank, took people out of the car and glanced at this ordinary building. He could feel an atmosphere of panic on the faces of the employees outside.
Li Yunjie also understood the source of their panic.
However, in comparison, his mood is quite good, because everything that Clark Company has encountered so far is from his handwriting.
"Those guys did a really good job." Nodding lightly in his heart.
Then he said to the seven or eight men behind him: "Let's go, it's time for us to play!"
These people are the acquisition team of Galaxy Group!
Clark Mining has become food on the Galaxy Group's table.
Chapter 510: The expansion of the Galaxy Group, the acquisition of mining companies [Seeking flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】
Everyone knows that Clark Mining is on the verge of bankruptcy. There is a sense of sadness from top to bottom in the company. Many employees are contacting the next home and looking for new jobs.
Under such circumstances, Li Yunjie and his party appeared in Clark Company.
Compared with the depression of Clark's employees, their group appeared to be in high spirits.
All of them were wearing suits and leather shoes, their hair was meticulously combed, and they were also smeared with wax, and there was a pen in their jacket pocket.
This temperament is easily reminiscent of the jackal of Wall Street.
Led by Clark's secretary, Galaxy Group's acquisition team walked into the office of Chairman Clark.
At this moment, all the employees began to talk.
"Who are these guys? What do they come to the company for?"
"A group of yellow-skinned people, and two Caucasians, are they islanders?"
"It's not very similar. I've seen islanders. They are shorter, and 18 is very polite. They bow at every turn."
"And these people are very arrogant~"
"It may also be from Hong Kong Island. Anyway, I can't tell the difference between these yellow people."
"If it is an islander, let them lie down and leave the company today."
"That's right, we'll go over and take a look later. After they leave the company, we'll go home and get our guns, hum."
In this era, when it comes to people with yellow skin, the first thing that foreigners think of is islanders.
No way, I have to admit that the island country is still very powerful, you can look down on them, but you must not look down on them.
