Chapter 810: I was almost cheated by the Uruguayans (three watches)
Although it is now an important moment for the company's development, Liu Xiu'e went to Switzerland to study is also very important in Lin Hongfei's view, so he forcibly postponed the negotiation time for three days, personally sent Liu Xiu'e to Switzerland, and waited until Liu Xiu'e made all the arrangements before coming back.
Lin Hongfei, who had just returned from Switzerland, saw the beaming Han Tao and Gu Binghe at the airport, why did the two of them come to pick him up? Lin Hongfei was a little strange, looking at the two of them with a beaming face, as if he had seen a piece of gold ingot...... Well, there should be not just one, but several gold ingots.
"Mr. Lin, come on, come on, I'll help you carry your luggage."
Seeing Lin Hongfei walking out of the terminal with his suitcase, Han Tao, who was physically strong and able to run a horse on his arm, immediately trotted to Lin Hongfei, Lin Hongfei looked extremely disgusting with a flattering smile, and hurriedly stuffed the suitcase to Han Tao, Lin Hongfei subconsciously took a step back, "I said Lao Han, you and Lao Gu came here to pick me up?" When did you two have such kindness? ”
"Mr. Lin, you are wrong this time, Lao Han and I came to pick you up, but we didn't come to ask you for help, but to congratulate you." Gu Binghe, who was a little older, said with a smile on the side.
"Congratulations?" Lin Hongfei thought for a moment, and immediately raised his eyebrows, "The matter of the steel plant is done?" ”
"It's done, it's done," Gu Bing couldn't close his mouth with joy, and the whole person was filled with a strong happiness from the inside out, "Let's cooperate with Liangcheng Iron and Steel and Anshan Iron and Steel to jointly invest in a steel plant with an annual output of 2 million tons of steel with Uruguay, when the time comes, this steel plant can not only meet the needs of Uruguay's domestic construction, but also export its products to other countries in South America, and the speed of earning foreign exchange is much faster than buying beef, mutton and grain." ”
Hearing Gu Binghe say this, Lin Hongfei inevitably became curious, "What do you mean?" You have now spoken out about the Uruguayan negotiating team? ”
"It can't be regarded as persuasion, it can only be said that it is basically agreed," Gu Binghe said modestly, but the excitement and excitement of the whole person could not be concealed in any way, a steel plant with an annual output of 2 million tons of steel is much larger than the current scale of Liangcheng Iron and Steel, and when I think that Liangcheng Iron and Steel can expand such a large scale at once, or invest abroad, not only Gu Binghe and Han Tao are excited and can't help themselves, but the leaders of the entire two cities can't remain calm in the face of such a huge political achievement. "Our city leaders have said that the city fully supports our company's decision, and the city will give full support to us no matter what is needed."
"The leaders of your two cities reacted quite quickly," Lin Hongfei nodded with a smile. Of course, he can imagine facing such a big political achievement. What will the leaders of the two cities be happy about. "Who are you going to work with when it comes to iron ore supply? For such a large steel plant, it would not work without a stable supply of iron ore. ”
I didn't expect Lin Hongfei to realize this so quickly, Han Tao and Gu Binghe couldn't help but glance at each other, and admired Lin Hongfei more and more. I didn't expect Mr. Lin to realize this so quickly, no wonder Mr. Lin was able to make the business so big, but with this calmness and calmness, people were unconvinced.
"We intend to import iron ore from the Big Mountain Mine in Argentina." Gu Binghe said, "Well, this big mountain mine belongs to the Argentine National Patagonia Iron Ore Company, Argentina and Uruguay border, the transportation distance of iron ore is not far, if necessary, we can also invest in a railway." ”
"It is said that the iron ore of this Dashan mine is of high grade, and if it is really good, it cannot be ruled out that in the future, we Liangcheng Iron and Steel will also import iron ore from this Argentine national Patagonian iron ore company...... The domestic iron ore grade is too low. Han Tao added on the side, "But I heard that this mountain mine has been mined for some years, and the reserves should not be much, but it is not a problem to supply our steel plant in Uruguay for ten or eight years." What our city leaders mean is that if the Argentines are willing to sell, as long as the price is right, we can buy the mine. ”
"The Big Mountain Mine of the Argentine National Iron Ore Company of Patagonia?" Lin Hongfei frowned, he felt that he seemed to have heard of the name of the mine Dashan Mine and the company of the Argentine National Patagonia Iron Ore Company, but it didn't seem to be very good, although he didn't remember what happened, but it was enough to just think that this matter was not good, he frowned, and asked Han Tao and Gu Binghe, "Who recommended this Argentine National Patagonia Iron Ore Company to you, have you dealt with them before, do you know about them?" ”
"As a member of the negotiating team in the Uruguayan delegation told us, we estimate that this guy has probably taken the benefits of the Argentine National Patagonian Iron Ore Company," Gu Binghe replied nonchalantly, "This kind of thing is normal, as long as we can get the iron ore, everything else is easy to say." ”
Is that so? Lin Hongfei was a little unsure, he hesitated, "In this way, get in the car and I'll make a call." ”
Don't...... What's wrong with this? Looking at Lin Hongfei's frowning brows and cautious tone, Han Tao and Gu Binghe, who were still full of joy from the inside just now, suddenly chuckled in their hearts.
However, there shouldn't be anything wrong with such a big thing, right? Besides, the Argentine national Patagonian iron ore company, which supplies iron ore, was coordinated by the members of the Uruguayan negotiating team, how could they not know the bottom line about the Argentine national Patagonian iron ore company? Han Tao and Gu Binghe kept comforting themselves in their hearts.
That is, because the person who said this was Lin Hongfei, if it was replaced by any other person, Gu Binghe and Han Tao would simply sneer at all: If you want to sow discord between our friends in the two cities of Steel and Uruguay, you are simply too bad.
…………………………………………
Hung up the phone, Lin Hongfei's face was so gloomy that he could almost drip water, "Lao Gu, Lao Han, you don't have to think about this mountain mine and the Argentine National Patagonia Iron Ore Company, they closed down last year because of financial problems." ”
Lin Hongfei finally remembered what he was talking about, and he felt that the names Dashan Mine and the Argentine National Patagonia Iron Ore Company were very familiar. It's not that they went out of business, but because about five years ago, five years before I was exact, in 2007, there was a domestic company called GradeTrading Group that planned to sell Dashan Mine to itself for $7.5 million.
At that time, Lin Hongfei was in the ascendant in the field of international engine and vehicle design, and it was normal for someone to want to do business with him, but after a little understanding of the GradeTrading Group, it made Lin Hongfei suspicious, and it seemed that this mountain mine was acquired by the GradeTrading Group Group at the end of 2004 for $6.5 million, and now it is being sold to himself at a price increase of $1 million...... How can it be so cheap? If the analysis is based on the iron ore reserves data provided by the GradeTrading Group to itself. In recent years, the iron ore Zhang family is not worth $1 million, isn't GradeTrading Group losing a lot of money?
Lin Hongfei, who was suspicious, naturally wanted to have a detailed understanding of this GradeTrading group, and after understanding it, he realized that this GradeTrading group was a leather bag company made by the children of a certain leader in a certain province in China.
Memories that have been restored like a tidal wave. Let Lin Hongfei briefly introduce his understanding of Dashan Mine and the Argentine national Patagonian iron ore company to Han Tao and Gu Binghe.
"What?!" Han Tao and Gu Binghe all exclaimed, and their eyes suddenly went dark. Venus is on the rise!
The Big Mountain Mine and the Argentine state Patagonian iron ore company actually closed down last year because of financial problems? An iron ore plant is nothing more than a huge money printing machine. As long as iron ore can be produced, there is no need to worry about financial problems at all, and what problems will an iron ore company have a financial crisis because of it? Naturally, the reserves of iron ore have been almost depleted, and if they continue to mine, they will only make ends meet, and the owners of their iron ore will close their iron ore farms.
They didn't care who Lin Hongfei was calling just now, how could they know this information so quickly. They don't have the slightest doubt about Lin Hongfei's words in their hearts now, and they are full of happiness: Lin Hongfei really has no need or reason to lie about this matter, what is going on between this mountain mine and the Argentine National Patagonia Iron Ore Company, as long as they inquire a little, they will soon be able to find out.
Gu Binghe and Han Tao are now only happy in their hearts: Luck. If it weren't for Mr. Lin's knowledge of this mountain mine and the Argentine National Patagonia Iron Ore Company, we would have been pitted by the Uruguayans this time.
Right! It's Uruguayans!
Thinking of this, Han Tao and Gu Binghe were so excited that they couldn't wait to rush to the Uruguayan embassy right now and drag out the bastard who was the matchmaker between himself and the Argentine National Patagonia Iron Ore Company: Nima! It's not your way to find death.
"Forget it, it's useless to go," Lin Hongfei waved his hand to stop Han Tao and Gu Binghe's idea of going to trouble the Uruguayans, "Now these Uruguayans are important foreign guests of our country, and you beat them up, it was comfortable at the time, but this is immediately a diplomatic crisis...... The old prime minister once said that diplomacy is no trivial matter, and if it is not done well, it will be a big trouble...... I think it's better to think about it in the long run. ”
Hearing Lin Hongfei's words, Gu Binghe and Han Tao's faces suddenly turned a little pale: If you have a little dispute with a foreigner, you can be raised to the height of "affecting the diplomatic relations between China and X", not to mention beating up a foreigner, I must have been happy when I beat someone at that time, but the trouble after the fight was over...... As soon as they thought that this was tantamount to making a very serious political mistake, the two of them instantly shuddered in their hearts: if the two of them really beat up such a high-level foreign guest, it would be light to be stroked to the end at that time.
But their faces turned pale, and when they thought that they had been tricked by someone and couldn't fight back, Han Tao and Gu Binghe felt very aggrieved in their hearts, "Could it be that we just suffered this dumb loss?" …… Mr. Lin, you have a brain, let's think of a way, this is obviously a stumbling block for us by the Uruguayans. ”
"It's easy to deal with this matter," Lin Hongfei smiled slightly, don't look at the problem if Han Tao and Gu Binghe are allowed to beat people, but if you look at it from another angle, this matter is too simple to solve, "You go directly to the two heads of the Uruguayan negotiation team: Uruguayan Minister of Industry Robert . Clem. Mr. Lopez and the Minister of Commerce, Carlos Lopez. Mr. Gutiérrez, tell them everything from beginning to end, and then ask them to give you an explanation and deal with the parties accordingly, if you are not satisfied, you will be very suspicious of the sincerity of the cooperation of the Uruguayans, and you do not rule out the possibility of revoking this cooperation for the consideration of risk aversion. ”
Han Tao and Gu Binghe were dumbfounded when they heard this, thinking in their hearts that it should be extremely complicated, maybe they would have to pinch their noses and eat such a big dumb loss, but it was so simple to do it?
"This ...... Isn't that a threat? Gu Binghe whispered that when it comes to dealing with foreigners, Chinese people are really not used to dealing with problems in a threatening way.
"No, this is not a threat, this is a warning," Lin Hongfei shook his head, correcting the mistake in Gu Binghe's words very seriously, "I will also ask Robert when I turn around. Clem. Mr. Lopez and Carlos. Mr. Gutiérrez protested against this immoral practice of theirs...... You know, we've been waiting for the Uruguayans to make their own mistake in order to give us an excuse to offer more conditions, and the mistake they made was so timely that I would like to personally thank the bastard who cheated you. ”
So we were cheated like this, and we gave you a chance to come out? Han Tao and Gu Binghe were speechless for a moment, Han Tao and Gu Binghe, who had been "honest and loyal" all their lives on foreign issues, really couldn't accept Lin Hongfei's way of thinking, but when they thought that if it wasn't for Mr. Lin inadvertently discovering this huge problem, it is estimated that the steel in the two cities would not be able to fill this huge hole, thinking of this, the two couldn't help but be indignant again, glanced at each other, and nodded heavily at the same time, "Mr. Lin, we listen to you about this."
