Chapter 795 Asking for someone (asking for a monthly ticket)
It can be said that the Haiping Mining Company, which was invested and established by the Fang family alone, began to prepare for the acquisition and mining of the Carasso mine in Western Australia before the outbreak of the Southeast Asian financial crisis in [-]. It was not until the end of [-] that it successfully acquired the mine. The income of this mining area has been brought into his own pocket.
The Carasso mining area is about 330 kilometers away from Perth, covering an area of about 270 square kilometers. It is also more than 230 kilometers away from the nearest port, Kurisbane Port. In order to transport the mined iron ore out, Haiping Mining Company built a A railway connects the two places, and it also acquired 70.00% of the shares in Kurisban Port, and gradually expanded it into a large-scale port with an annual export of iron ore and ore that can reach 2000 million tons.For these two items alone, Haiping Mining Company has invested a huge amount of money.If it weren't for the support of Fang Mingyuan's huge profits from the Nasdaq stock market, these expenses alone would have increased the financial pressure of the Fang family!
But even so, as the president of Haiping Mining Company, Xia Wen was under a lot of psychological pressure, which was far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.
With such a huge amount of capital invested, if the world iron ore price cannot rise significantly, the Fang family's losses will be in the billions of dollars!
Every time Xia Wen thinks of the astronomical loss for ordinary people, he can't help breathing faster and breaking out in a cold sweat!At the beginning, when Fang Mingyuan asked him to come to Australia to establish Haiping Mining Company, he never thought that Haiping Mining Company would one day develop to the scale it is today.While being grateful to Fang Mingyuan for his trust in him, he naturally also felt the pressure on his shoulders.
Moreover, Xia Wen's father Xia Tian also put a lot of mental pressure on him. Xia Tian is now one of the top managers in the Deguang Electronics Group. Knowing that his son is alone in Australia, Xia Tian is happy and worried that his son will not be successful. He caused great economic losses to his family, so every time he called, he would more or less mention a few words to him.He must be cautious and not arrogant.If you have any problems, you should report to Fang Mingyuan in time and ask for guidance.
Xia Wen is indeed walking on thin ice and working conscientiously as Xia Tian asked, and with the completion of the railway construction and the completion of the second phase of the Kurisbane Port, it can be said that everything is ready now and only needs to start.He could also breathe a sigh of relief.
To his relief, although the price of iron ore in the international market is still not high, it is compared with that in [-] and [-].However, there has already been a significant improvement. In this case, the iron ore mining cost of Haiping Mining Company, including the freight rate, has limited losses.This made him a little more confident in what Fang Mingyuan once said, that the international iron ore price would skyrocket.
Fang Mingyuan came to inspect the Carasso mining area, and Xia Wen naturally wanted to accompany him the whole way.
"Brother Xia Wen, you have really made a career in Australia over the years!" Lin Rong said standing on the top of the hill and looking at the vast land in the distance. "I really didn't expect that the iron ore reserves here are so amazing."
Although Xia Wen also reported to Fang Mingyuan before, after careful exploration of the Carasso mining area.They found that the data obtained before had a large deviation.But after seeing the mining area with her own eyes and listening to Xia Wen's story, Lin Rong believed it.This is actually a super mining area of iron ore!
The initial exploration results they got were that there were only 20 billion tons of magnetite with a grade of 20.00% five or six in the Carasso mining area at most!And the latest exploration results.After in-depth exploration of 40.00% of the land in the entire mining area, the total reserves discovered exceeded 31 billion tons. The highest ore grade was 30.00% 30.00 and the lowest was [-]% [-]!
This also means that the actual value of the Carasso mining area has taken a leap forward. From this point alone, the value of Haiping Mining Company, which has taken down the Carasso mining area, has more than doubled.
"Yeah, I was also shocked when I saw this result! I can only say that fortunately, Fang Shao didn't listen to me at the time, and gave up the Carasso mining area and bought other mining areas." Xia Wen took a long breath and said.Now whenever he thinks back to the time when he persuaded Fang Mingyuan to change his mind, he can't help being a little scared. If Fang Mingyuan had followed his persuasion at that time, the loss would have been great.
Lin Rong glanced back. Not far away, Fang Mingyuan, who was laughing with two white men, couldn't help flashing a flash of enthusiasm in his eyes, and said softly: "He, his vision has always been very accurate in this regard."
"Mr. Fang, the government of Western Australia welcomes investors like Mr. Fang to invest and develop!" Stanley Bisef Bruce said with a smile on his face, "Our Governor, Mr. Alfred Edmund Barton Now I am attending an important meeting in Congress, and I can’t come back in time, so Cruise and I will be in charge of the reception for the time being. As soon as the meeting is over, Mr. Governor will come back immediately.” The Cruise he was talking about was his His younger brother, Cruise Bisef Bruce, is the head of the Western Australian State Government's Mineral Development Department.
At the beginning, when Haiping Mining Company wanted to develop the Carasso mining area, it was interfered by several puppet companies pushed forward by the three giants of the mining industry to add chaos to Haiping Mining Company. Congressman Bruce was "speaking out of justice" at the time, saying that those puppet companies were simply The fact that there was not enough money to develop the Carraso Mine paved the way for Haiping Mining to take over the Carraso Mine.And Cruz Biserve Bruce is the person in charge of Perth's mineral resource review department!
Over the past few years, Haiping Mining Co., Ltd. has continuously invested in the Carasso mining area, which has not only contributed to the economic recovery of Western Australia, but also provided a solid foundation for the social status of the Bruce Brothers in Western Australia. , it can be said that the cooperation between the two parties is very pleasant.
Especially after Fang Mingyuan took over Hong Kong Kumho Film Group and Hong Kong Guo's Shipping Group Company, it was recently revealed that he is the most famous screenwriter "Fang" in Hollywood. The Australian government's attention to Fang Mingyuan can be said to have changed drastically.The Bruce Brothers, as people who have a good cooperative relationship with the Fang family, naturally benefited greatly from it.
The reason is actually very simple. Although Australia’s economic development has seen a significant recovery compared with the years of [-], [-], and [-], the overall economic growth is still sluggish because the international market still has not recovered significantly. Lacks stamina.
In order to boost the economy, the Australian government proposed to vigorously develop tourism and increase the development and export of mineral resources.Not to mention that Haiping Mining Company itself is an iron ore mining and exporting company. Hong Kong Kumho Film Group and Guo's Shipping Group are also important partners of the Australian government to develop tourism and mining.
A "Lord of the Rings" has caused a blowout growth in the tourism industry of Australia's neighbor New Zealand, and with the release of "Lord of the Rings 2" this summer, it is bound to bring New Zealand's tourism industry to a higher level.This makes how the Australian government can not pay attention to the relationship with Hong Kong Kumho Film Group.They are looking forward to the fact that Australia will also become an important filming location for Hong Kong Kumho Film Group in the future.Thereby stimulating the further development of domestic tourism.
Moreover, Guo's Shipping Group has become one of the most important shipping companies in the Pacific Ocean. If Australia's various mineral resources do not have enough shipping capacity, they can only be piled up in the port.What's more, the good relationship between Guo's Shipping Group Company and the Chinese government has also attracted the attention of the Australian government. With the economic development of China, especially the growing prosperity of the southern and coastal areas, China has become a source of various minerals in Australia. An important importer of resources.
Another very important point is that Guo's Shipping Group is now the largest oil transportation company in the Pacific Ocean and even the global shipping industry. It has a huge fleet of tankers and also controls two shipyards capable of building supertankers. The close relationship with South Korean shipyards and Japan's Changshi Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. means that the tanker fleet of Guo's Shipping Group can expand rapidly.This is due to the current international oil transportation market where single-hull tankers have been forcibly withdrawn from the transportation market one after another. The tanker transportation capacity of Guo's Shipping Group Company can be said to be very important.
When countries in Southeast Asia and East Asia successively required single-hull tankers to withdraw from the transportation market within a time limit, although the Australian government raised the standards for single-hull tankers to enter their territorial waters, they did not put forward a clear timetable for withdrawal like the countries in Southeast Asia and East Asia.However, following the European Mediterranean crude oil spill incident in April, and European countries successively proposed a timetable for banning single-hull tankers from entering their territorial waters, the call for the government to clarify the withdrawal of single-hull tankers from the transportation industry in Australia suddenly became louder. stand up.
Regarding the demands of the public, the Australian government naturally does not dare to delay using excuses such as research and research, so the government's shipping authority is now actively drafting a draft.Although Australia is rich in various mineral resources, it is an out-and-out net importer of crude oil and refined oil.Tens of millions of tons of crude oil and refined oil are imported from overseas every year, and domestically produced crude oil can only meet more than 60.00% of domestic consumption.Moreover, the quantity of imported crude oil and refined oil products is still rising steadily.
Therefore, the Australian government and enterprises hope to reach a stable crude oil transportation agreement with Guo's Shipping Group Company to ensure domestic demand for crude oil and refined oil products. (To be continued..)
