The negotiations with China have ended here for the time being. Obviously, this negotiation can become a protracted debate. Very literary

Originally, the other party probably knew about rare earths, but they did not pay attention to this emerging product in the future.

However, since Catherine will not stay in China for a long time, they need a preliminary agreement.

It is not unusually difficult for China to export rare earths on its own. Because they are a red country, they will face various problems if they want to export rare earths.

It would be fine if it were other resources. The problem is that these are rare earth resources, which are only needed by developed countries. Most of these products are used in high-tech products, so as far as they are concerned, such products are definitely needed.

High-tech. Most of the developed countries China faces are hostile to them.

Although countries like the United States are friendly to China, the United States is now a major country in rare earths and has a monopoly, so it is even less likely that the United States will help China.

Now China has not joined the WTO...

No, there is no so-called WTO even now, but a thing called the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) that was formulated in 1 year.

So at this time, if China wants to enter the international market, it must have an agent.

It is as if China is using Hunan and Hong Kong as its agents in this special era.

The prosperity of Hunan and Hong Kong is largely due to the fact that China used Hunan and Hong Kong as their agents when they were blocked, so Catherine believed that if she became a comprador...

...Well...being a general agent is a good choice.

Catherine does not say that she controls the market, but because of the financial thugs Quantum Fund, Catherine believes that she will not face too many difficulties when facing competition.

When American rare earths face Chinese rare earths, the price will definitely drop... Well, Catherine has decided that if possible, it is best to go to the Pentagon to fool them into stopping mining, and it is best to fully import from China...

However, Catherine is not very hopeful about this, but it is still an opportunity.

In the remaining days in Beijing, everyone was talking about business, and after the Chinese side used their channels to inquire about relevant information about the rare earth industry in Europe, the United States and other countries, the other party seemed to believe Catherine's words.

The temptation of rare earths is indeed great. The current price is US$100, which was US$100 in the 1970s!

The Chinese were also deceived by Catherine...

And next, everyone sat in rows, and then sat together to discuss related matters.

In this regard, China is purely a novice, so when facing negotiations, they mostly listened to what Catherine was talking about. Although they did not transport a bunch of experts like last time, Catherine had already made inquiries before coming.

Relevant information, so it can be said that Catherine knew everything about China and talked about everything.

Finally, the other party said that it still needed some time for evaluation, so there was no other way. Catherine could only choose to continue negotiations with these people in the future. Now the two parties are discussing specific matters.

During this period, China was not without small tricks. When they asked about rare earths, they also found people who might need rare earth resources, and then asked if they would buy cheap rare earths in China...

Of course, they asked questions through various means.

But their results embarrassed them.

Some regular Chinese customers don’t have any objections, but these people either don’t need rare earths or have very little demand. And more people doubt whether China has the ability to purify and process rare earths, and

There are very few people interested in this.

Although they found someone who was interested in this, they told them that if it came from China, it would only cost twenty or thirty dollars in the end. Because the technology there is definitely not good enough, the product still needs secondary processing.

, which also led to an increase in their products...

When it comes to the ability to process rare earths, China is not without it. The reason for this is actually very simple.

It has the advantage of having more power, so the output is definitely considerable.

But Catherine's view does not mean that others see it this way. Westerners' traditional view of the Chinese is suspicion. They always think that the other party cannot accomplish anything.

This is true now, and it will be true in the future.

When China achieves success, the first thing they hear is never praise from the Western world, but doubt.

Such double standards are deeply ingrained views for Westerners, so it is not an easy thing for them to change. Catherine has no pressure on this. From the perspective of a third party, China has

It has a very huge late-mover advantage. The other party can accumulate a lot of technology in a short period of time. This is also proved by facts. In the next thirty years, China has completed transcendent development that is difficult to achieve in the Western world for a hundred years. This

This is the proof.

According to the preliminary agreement reached between the two parties, if Catherine can be responsible for the agency, she will be able to obtain the rare earths she needs at cost price. In other words, Catherine herself can "go through the back door."

Today's rare earths also have different qualities. Although China also has rare earths, even under the same conditions as the United States, it is difficult to have high-quality purified products in US dollars, so Catherine can give them advice.

If Catherine made such a request in the United States, she would definitely be criticized.

Cost price? Go ahead and play with it!

But in China, for the Chinese, this concept is not unacceptable, and the only person they can look for is Catherine. If it were anyone else, their rare earths would be worthless.

According to the final agreement, the profit needs to be divided into 60% and 40%, and Catherine gets 40% of the profit.

Perhaps these Chinese people still don’t know that Catherine is now a giant in the consumption of rare earth resources. Although she can only get 40% of it, the so-called "cost" in China is almost nothing. In other words, Catherine occupies 40% of the total.

It’s a huge bargain—it’s just money for nothing!

China's so-called costs may be already very high from their own perspective, but from Catherine's perspective, such money is nothing at all. This is just like Miner a few days ago, after hearing their

Such a luxurious and extravagant life only costs 25 US dollars per person and makes people laugh. The money concepts of Chinese and Americans are simply an order of magnitude different!

Faced with such a huge amount of property, the Chinese people have actually not reacted.

...Why is this soil so valuable?

How come we have such a treasure and we don’t even know about it?

Why can't I sell such a treasure when I'm guarding it?

It will take some time for their doubts to be resolved, but Catherine is not in a hurry. For such a business, you can sit down and talk slowly, as long as the negotiation is successful in the end. Looking at the current situation in China, Catherine already has 70% of the

Got it.

The rest is just for Catherine to convince the Pentagon. Nowadays, none of the rare earth people are big players. They are like three-legged cats in front of Catherine.

As long as the Pentagon can be deceived into realizing the plan for the 21st century in advance and sealing up a large number of mines, that will be fine.

If you can't deceive me...then you can only rely on the help of Catherine herself and the Quantum Fund.

The cost of ore in China is very low, so Catherine can come up with a trump card - Qing.

pin.

How did China destroy the U.S. manufacturing industry in the 21st century?

Very simple: tilt.

pin.

The price of madeinchna's products is lower than the cost price of madewn-usa, so they have no way to continue, and when the time comes, they can legitimately establish a monopoly.

However, I am afraid that this matter will have to wait until next time before Catherine can talk to the other party.

In fact, for the Chinese, even if the current price is 1 US dollar per kilogram, they will probably laugh. So Catherine believes that next time she negotiates with the other party, if she puts forward this condition, it should be successful.

It is now 1974. Catherine estimates that she will be able to obtain the agency rights around 1976, and it will probably be around 1978 when China will actually start producing rare earths. The two parties signed a thirty-year contract. Here

That's it.

Catherine feels that thirty years should be a limit. By then, China will already have enough autonomy, and compradors like Catherine will definitely not be valued by the other party. By then, the enviable profits will definitely be torn apart by the other party.

peace treaty, and according to the thirty-year time limit, by then the Chinese

The country has just developed, and their contract has just expired. The Chinese will definitely feel greedy when they see Catherine making money, but think about it, if they tolerate it for a few years, they will not come to trouble Catherine.

Why ruin your good image just for a few years of profits?

For Catherine, thirty years of profits are enough for her.

If she still relies on rare earths as the source of her industry thirty years later, I am afraid that Catherine herself will despise herself.

After the business was settled, the others were almost done, so in the end everyone left the capital in a group, and then went all the way south, crossed the Yellow River, enjoyed the Taihu Lake, enjoyed the coolness in the West Lake, then arrived at Guangzhou, and finally crossed

Once we reach the border and arrive at Hunan and Hong Kong, our journey to China is over...

Mitsuyo Hiro...

I just got a call, what a scam...
