Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

The original plan was to stay in the Soviet Union for a week at most, but who would have thought that the host would be so welcoming. I didn't want you to leave prematurely, so it wasn't until the tenth day that Bao Zixuan left the Soviet Union and flew directly to Baghdad on a special plane.

However, staying in the Soviet Union for such a long time was not without gains. Not only did we achieve our set goals, but we also received many unexpected surprises. I believe these surprises will play an important role in the future. All investments now are for better development in the future.

Although the cost is not small, fortunately, you basically don’t have to pay for it yourself. This time, through the UFO authorization, a lot of funds were obtained. It can even be said that Fucaira's navy was established with the help of various countries, but no letters of thanks were issued to them. I wonder how other high-level officials would feel if they knew this.

Because my time in the Soviet Union was quite long, and I also planned to spend more time in Saudi Arabia and Fucairad, I could only keep compressing my time in other countries.

The Iraqi side paid enough attention to Bao Zixuan's arrival; although the president did not greet him, the second son drove the car himself to show respect. Iraq is not a small country in the Middle East. As a future successor, it is not easy to be able to do this.

At this time, Bentley and Heiyun cars have become the official vehicles of Iraq. At least in this regard, Bao Zixuan is very successful. You must know that when Iraq was the richest in its previous life, the cars on the streets were basically Mercedes-Benz and BMW. It can be said that they have robbed a lot of business from the Germans, and it is not easy to snatch food from the tiger's mouth.

After getting to the car, the second young master said apologetically: "Your Excellency, the President, is really unable to get away because he has to meet an important guest; I hope you can understand."

In fact, I really don't blame him, after all, it was Bao Zixuan who changed his itinerary temporarily. The original plan was to come here three days ago, but who knew that the plan could not keep up with the changes, and the delay in the Soviet Union was a bit long. As the president of a country, your schedule is very tight and you cannot wait for you all the time.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "It's my problem. The Soviets are too enthusiastic. They refused to let them leave without saying anything, so it was delayed for a few days. Your Excellency, the President, has many things to do, so he can just be busy with his work. And we are about the same age, so we can communicate It will be more convenient to get up.”

"When I came here this time, I saw a lot of changes in Iraq, and I heard reports from my subordinates that the economy is developing very well. It's really gratifying."

Since the Iran-Iraq War ended prematurely, Iraq has also realized that the war has taken too much of a toll on them. Even if the Iranians come over, they are not alone. Moreover, the Iranians do not have the strength. After all, they are subject to sanctions all over the world; how can they have the ability to attack a powerful military country.

At the same time, several stealth bombers purchased from Heiyun Group gave them absolute confidence. If Iran and Israel really dare to risk the world's disapproval, then Iraq will definitely not be polite. If we can live in peace, no one wants to go to war. It’s not like you can’t hold on until you’re full, so it’s better to develop the economy with peace of mind.

If you want to be accepted by the people, you must let them live a happy life. If you have nothing, you will be extremely poor; if you add some other things, there will definitely be problems.

At the same time, Bao Zixuan's words were very useful to the second young master. The two are about the same age, so they can communicate more smoothly together. It shows that in my heart, the man in front of me has recognized his ability and identity. This is paving the way for the future. At least with the help of the Black Cloud Group, the Iraqi economy will not be in bad shape.

Regarding this, the second young master is still very confident. If Bao Zixuan cannot develop the Iraqi economy, then other companies and people will be even more in trouble.

It can be said that through contacts in recent years, he has unconditional trust in Bao Zixuan, of course, it is currently limited to economic and technological aspects.

The second son smiled and said: "I really want to thank you for this. Your Excellency the President said that you are the true friend of Iraq."

In fact, Bao Zixuan really didn't know what to say about this. When he came to the Middle East to invest, he first wanted to build good relations with various countries. After all, Fucairah needs everyone's support. Then there is the matter of making money. Although Middle Eastern countries are technologically backward, their economies are not bad at all.

It has a small population and rich oil reserves. Entering modern society, people's lives have become inseparable from petrochemical products. The country is very rich and the people are very wealthy. However, the goods that can be produced domestically are very rare. This is an opportunity. You can see Heiyun cars all over the streets, and people are using Heiyun mobile phones. It can be seen that Bao's investment in Iraq is definitely worth it.

Bao Zixuan: "Don't say that, we are a win-win situation. Iraq's economy has developed, and Heiyun Group has made friendship and profits. I came here this time and had an idea; the group wants to increase investment in the Middle East. Iraq is currently The political situation is stable and it’s a perfect fit.”

The second son was very excited to hear that he was planning to increase investment in Iraq. Heiyun Group is a high-end industrial enterprise. If it can build a factory in Iraq, it will have huge benefits for the industrial improvement of the entire country.

Second Young Master: "This is the most exciting news I have heard in recent times. I don't know what Heiyun Group wants to invest in, but Iraq will fully cooperate."

Bao Zixuan: "Heiyun Group is preparing to build a solar power plant and a steel plant in Iraq; it is also preparing to join forces with Japan's Mitsubishi Group to jointly establish a shipyard."

"The shipyard mainly serves customers in the Middle East; it can produce oil tankers within three years and liquefied natural gas carriers within four years. However, if you want to bring Mitsubishi into the partnership, they must benefit. Therefore, we hope that Iraq can develop oil exploration and smelting." ;Give them some convenience.”

Oil tankers are easy to understand, but LNG carriers have very high requirements.

Liquefied natural gas ship, referred to as "LNG ship". Refers to a "ship" specialized in transporting liquefied natural gas. The earliest LNG ship was the 5,100-square-meter "Methane Guangduo" converted from an ordinary old oil tanker in the United States in 1958. According to the structural form of the cargo tank, it can be divided into independent tank type and membrane type. The former places cylindrical, tank-shaped, spherical and other shaped storage tanks inside the ship; the latter adopts a double-shell structure, and the inner shell is the load-bearing shell of the cargo tank. Compared with the independent type, the advantage of the membrane type is high volume utilization , the structure is light in weight, so newly built LNG ships, especially large ones, mostly use membrane structures. Liquefied natural gas ships have complex equipment, high technical requirements, and high construction costs.

Oil and natural gas are associated minerals, but natural gas transportation is a troublesome matter. The best way is to use pipeline transportation, but there are considerable conditions. Countries and regions must be bordering by land, otherwise the pipeline cannot be erected at all. The countries that currently consume the most natural gas include Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea. These countries are not even thousands of miles apart from the Middle East, but thousands of miles are still worthwhile.

Moreover, across the vast ocean, there is no way to erect pipelines. Then other methods of transportation must be used, so LNG carriers came into being. Moreover, Bao Zixuan knew that with the needs of industry and daily life, the demand for natural gas would be increasing.

If we can plan ahead, I believe there will be great potential in the future.

But now we are facing a serious problem, and that is technology. Although through exchange, Heiyun Group has shipbuilding capabilities. But those are just ordinary freight, oil tankers and LNG ships, but there is no technical reserve at all.

If Mitsubishi is not involved and Heiyun Group is relied upon alone, too much time will be wasted even if the shipyard can start construction.

I used to think that Fucaira was the best choice, but I was worried that the Japanese would have other ideas. Moreover, the land area of ​​Fucaira is small, so building such a large shipyard is also a waste of resources.

After all the choices were made, Iraq was a very suitable location. First of all, oil and natural gas reserves are abundant. As long as the ships are of high quality and the price is reasonable, there is no need to worry about sales. Secondly, in recent years, Iraq has invested heavily in basic education, making it the country with the largest investment in the Middle East.

After a few years, these people will become mature industrial workers. And if you want to bring Mitsubishi into the fold, you must benefit from it. In other royal countries in the Middle East, the situation is too reexamined. Mr. Bao himself has no idea whether profit distribution is reasonable, but these problems do not exist in Iraq.

The most important thing is that Iraq is not far from Fucairah. If there are any changes, they can be resolved immediately. Buying so many warships and submarines is not just for show.
