"In fact, he still has another idea, but this is my own judgment." Aso Xiangyue said, "I think he seems to intend to acquire a steel factory in the United States."
"New Lipetok Iron and Steel Company intends to acquire a steel plant in the United States?" Fang Mingyuan sat up straight in surprise. This Petrov is quite courageous.In order to avoid the introduction of similar protective tariff policies by the United States in the future, it actually planned to open the factory directly to the United States.
This policy implemented by the U.S. government in [-] also had a certain impact on Huaxia’s steel exports to the U.S., but compared with the previous life, the influence was much smaller, because members of the Special Steel Association Emergence of jointly formed steel export companies.Members of the Special Steel Association, the steel to be exported is basically through the export company. In this way, the phenomenon of self-depression by the major steel companies in the previous life in order to increase exports has been reduced. The price of steel exported to the United States is high. , the profit margin will naturally be much higher.In this way, the steel companies on the American side will naturally not use the excuse of product dumping.
Another point is that Fang Mingyuan used his own influence in the United States to make the steel products exported to the United States by the members of the Special Steel Association basically either not on the list of additional tariffs, or even if they were, most of them were subject to an additional [-]%. In this way, the US government's policy will reduce the influence of China's steel exports by more than half.
The United States implements this policy, and the greater impact on China is not in exports, but in imports!After the United States implemented this tariff policy, the world's major steel producing countries, Japan, the European Union, and Russia, saw a sharp decline in the amount of steel exported to the United States, but the amount of steel exported to China has increased significantly, or at least increased. Thirty percent to fifty percent, such a large amount of steel was sold to China at a low price.Undoubtedly, it has had a serious impact on China's steel industry.The poor performance of the domestic steel industry from last year to this year is largely due to this reason.
And if we talk about building factories in the United States, we will naturally avoid the restrictions of US tariffs. Moreover, the US steel industry is now in a decline stage. Many domestic steel companies are in business difficulties. Several major steel companies in the United States The company is also actively carrying out restructuring and mergers and acquisitions.It's just...does Petrov have the confidence to run a steel company in the United States?Can a Russian company adapt to the operating conditions in the United States?
"Petrov's ambitions are not small. Not only did he take a fancy to the steel market in the United States, he also thought about buying domestic steel companies in China, so as to bypass the import controls of the Chinese government and expand the new Lipetoc The share of the steel company in the Huaxia steel market!" Aso Xiangyue leaned on Fang Mingyuan's arm and said softly, "He heard that you were also in the United States on the way here, so he wanted to meet you. In Russia, the recent economic situation is very bad. No, it is not easy for companies to get loans.”
Fang Mingyuan was stunned.Novolipetok Steel Company is also a well-known steel company in the Russian steel industry. Naturally, it will not be as difficult to get a loan as a general company, but this is also a score, if it is a huge loan.Among those banks in Russia, those who dare to lend will probably have more stringent conditions.If you can get a loan from an overseas bank, sometimes.Even better than the domestic banks in Russia, the conditions are better.
"What do you think of his acquisition intention?" Fang Mingyuan asked after pondering for a moment.Of course, he is not as familiar with the current situation of Russia's Novolipetok Steel Company as Kazuki Aso.If this Petrov is really talented, then it is not impossible to do this.In the previous life, it was not without success that foreign companies acquired American steel companies.
Aso Xiangyue turned over, lay in Fang Mingyuan's arms in a more comfortable position and said, "I don't have your vision, I can only speak from my own feelings."
Fang Mingyuan was dumbfounded, and lightly patted her on the buttocks: "The queen of the Russian business world, there are times when she is so humble? How can you make many men feel sorry for you?" The news came back from Russia, As the woman who controlled the most wealth in the business world in the former Soviet Union, Russian men nicknamed her the Queen of Business.
Aso Xiangyue twisted her body, and said softly: "What kind of business queen is said by those boring men, how dare she call her a queen in front of you."
Fang Mingyuan only felt that his heart was getting angry again, and Asang Xiangyue, who also felt it, was startled, and quickly turned to the outside. She couldn't stand another round of frenzy now, otherwise, she might not even be able to eat. I'm too lazy to go, let alone go shopping with Uda Mitsuri at night.
Fang Mingyuan also retreated back, sat up straight, leaned against the head of the bed, picked up the water glass on the bedside table, took a couple of sips of water, and then calmed down the anger in his heart: "Tell me, I I would also like to hear your opinion."
"Petrov is very courageous and resourceful. In his hands, the New Lipetok Steel Company has developed quite rapidly and accumulated considerable wealth in the past few years. He did not put The wealth was squandered, but he continued to increase his investment in the New Lipetok Steel Company, which also made him hold more and more shares in the New Lipetok Steel Company. However, although He is already the controlling shareholder, but on important issues, he still respects the opinions of other shareholders and does not act arbitrarily." Aso Xiangyue said slowly.Fang Mingyuan listened carefully, and gradually got a general understanding of Petrov in his heart.
Judging from the information obtained from Aso Xiangyue, Petrov is very ambitious, scheming and cunning, but he is not annoying.He has contributed a lot to the achievement of the New Lipetoc Steel Company today.Aso Xiangyue has merged some of its steel plants into the New Lipetok Steel Company, and the benefits obtained are quite satisfactory.Otherwise, she would not have agreed to help Petrov connect and introduce him to Fang Mingyuan.
Fang Mingyuan pondered for a long while. Although Russia's economy is not optimistic now, Fang Mingyuan knew that the price of crude oil in the international crude oil market would soon start to rise, and this time, it would rise to more than 180 US dollars. , this price is enough to make everyone feel incredible.As the world's largest producer and exporter of crude oil, Russia's economy has entered a high-speed road with its foreign exchange reserves greatly increased in the era of high oil prices.It is conceivable that Russia's domestic demand for steel will definitely be considerable in the future.As long as nothing fundamentally goes wrong, the future earnings prospects of Neo Lipetok Steel are sure to be good.
"I think you can meet him. Anyway, I'm just responsible for introducing him to you. As for whether you agree to him or not, I don't care." Aso Xiangyue smiled, "I personally think you have many friends in Russia. It’s not bad either. Podlov’s reputation in Russia is still good.”
"Okay, it's up to you. Then I'll see who this polar bear is." Fang Mingyuan's heart moved, and he nodded in agreement.
Aso Xiangyue's words reminded him that the real power figures he knows in Russia today are indeed a little small, except for the old Belevsky, Khordokovsky, and Chudakal, the others The relationship can be said to be forged by Aso Xiangyue.Although Aso Xiangyue is known as the queen of the business world in Russia, it is not difficult for those high-level figures to know that she is actually the agent of the Fang family in Russia.No matter how much authority and trust the agent has, in the eyes of many people, he is still inferior to the boss after all.
Now the Fang family’s shares in the New Lipetok Steel Company have become the second largest shareholder. Although it cannot affect Petrov’s controlling stake, it must be combined. The Fang family’s interest in the New Lipetok Steel Company The supply of coal, iron ore, and electricity, even Petrov did not dare to ignore the opinions of the Fang family.Hehe, 50.00% of coal, iron ore, and one-third of electricity supply, it is not too much to say that the Fang family has blocked the energy supply of the new Lipetok Steel Company.Moreover, the Fang family's influence in China, Japan, and the United States is enough to affect the export of products of the New Lipetok Steel Company, which also makes Aso Xiangyue not lose the slightest disadvantage in front of Petrov.
It is natural for Petrov to want to get to know himself better.As for the investment and loan he wanted to obtain from the Fang family, Fang Mingyuan didn't think he could draw any conclusions just by meeting him.After all, in the industrial world, it is often a process that uses years as the unit of time from the intention to start a new project to the actual implementation. Not everyone can be like Fang Mingyuan, who knows the general trend of the future and has sufficient resources With sufficient funds and unrestricted decision-making power, decisions can be made quickly.For a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars, which decision-maker does not make a decision after looking forward and backward and thinking twice.
Even if Fang Mingyuan immediately agreed to help Xinlipetok Iron and Steel Company to get a loan, whether Petrov can find a suitable acquisition target is another matter.
At this moment, Uda Guangli suddenly opened the door and walked in, holding Fang Mingyuan's mobile phone and said, "The caller in China said it was Zhou Ning from Nangang Group."
"Zhou Ning of Nangang Group?" Fang Mingyuan couldn't help being a little surprised. What did Zhou Ning ask of him at this time?
"Hello, Mr. Zhou, I'm Fang Mingyuan!" Fang Mingyuan answered the phone.
Zhou Ning said with a somewhat anxious voice on the phone: "Young Master Fang, I'm sorry to bother you, you have to help me, otherwise Nangang Group will have problems." (To be continued...)
