Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Any decision made will be supported unconditionally. This sentence is absolutely powerful. It is not only the father's recognition of his son, but also the boss's assurance to his subordinates. It shows that in Dad's heart, his current ability is enough to take charge of his own business. As for the president's meeting with both parties, it is more out of politeness and respect. In other words, his position has become more stable; this is a good thing for him.

Without saying anything, the Iraqi president returned to the room. My son has grown up and has done a few things very satisfactorily recently. It seems that we really need to give more opportunities to young people, otherwise there would be no such great progress. Their generation is old and many of their ideas are outdated.

At least I don’t study materials at night, and my attitude towards learning is far behind the young people.

Early the next morning, the second son went to the airport in person to greet Iwasaki Koki. The richest man, Bao, came to the presidential palace to communicate with the Iraqi president in advance.

The two of them were considered acquaintances, and after a few brief greetings, they got down to business.

The Iraqi president smiled and said: "Last night I heard that Heiyun Group was planning to invest in building three factories in Iraq. I was so excited that I didn't sleep well all night. I really blame you for this, but it gave me a big surprise. "

"To be honest, after experiencing the Iran-Iraq war, I found that a country without industry is really not good. In times of crisis, no one can help you."

"Iraq has oil, which means we will not be poor. But if we want the country to be strong and prosperous, oil alone is not enough. After all, if technology and industry are not strong, our international status will not be too high. And once the country encounters a crisis, There is an international embargo on you; but nothing can be done."

"Other countries in the Middle East all want to live a good life. But how do they know that the good life is not that easy. A life of luxury and enjoyment is destined to not last long."

"I used to think of relying on war, but now I find that a prosperous country and people living and working in peace and contentment seem to be more important than anything else. But if you want to do this, you can't do it without weapons. If you don't have the ability to make weapons, it's even more useless."

"I spent a lot of unjust money before, but in the end I got nothing. Fortunately, I met your friend when Iraq was most critical. Without the help of the Black Cloud Group, the war would never have ended so honorably."

"We will support Heiyun Group unconditionally if it wants to build a factory in Iraq. I have already told my boss about this and he will fully cooperate."

Although I don’t know why the other party expressed such emotion, if it can be done and done well, it will be really lucky for a country. But at this time, Bao Shaofu's heart was very simple. He had to make more friends and actively expand his strength, otherwise everything would be fleeting.

Bao Zixuan: "You must not say that, I am not the savior; Heiyun Group invested in Iraq to make profits. So far, the results seem to be good, so we will increase investment. Our previous cooperation must be It must be based on fairness, justice and openness, otherwise it will not last long.”

Saying this, the Iraqi president is even more satisfied. In the past, when European and American companies came to invest in the Middle East, they acted like poverty alleviation. Little did they know that the Arabs paid for their oil resources, and neither party owed anything to the other.

The guy in front of me is more down-to-earth, and he makes money openly; for this reason alone, he is much better than other businessmen.

While the two were talking, Iwasaki Koki had arrived at the Presidential Palace.

Although I know that Bao Zixuan's status in Iraq is very high. But he didn't expect that it would be like this. The second young master would drive to greet him in person. He still knows a thing or two about the doorways here.

Although the Mitsubishi Group is very powerful, it is not small in scale. But when investing in Iraq, you definitely don’t need your heir to come out to greet you or even drive in person.

After a brief exchange in the car, the two discovered that all this was because of Bao Zixuan's preparation. The second young master is the future heir to the country. If every investor needs him to greet them and even drive them, he will probably be exhausted from being a driver every day.

Bao Zixuan quickly introduced: "Your Excellency, this is Mr. Koki Iwasaki, the head of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries."

"Mr. Iwasaki, I don't think I need to introduce you too much!"

At this time, Iwasaki Koki really regretted not learning another foreign language. Why was Bao Zixuan able to blend in immediately wherever he went? Language skills alone are something most people don’t have. It seems that in the future, children must be trained in this aspect, otherwise it is really easy to suffer losses.

The President of Iraq smiled and said: "Hello, Mr. Iwasaki. Welcome to Baghdad. I hope that Iraq can leave a good impression on you in the future. Mitsubishi is a large international company. If we can invest in Iraq, then we We will definitely cooperate fully.”

"Iraq invites investors and friends from all over the world with sincerity."

I didn't expect the Iraqi president to be so polite. It seems to be really different from the rumors outside.

But if someone is polite to you, that's because they have high standards; you can't be too arrogant. In fact, the bigger the family members are, the more humble they will be. This is similar in that country, but it's the kind of sudden wealth that makes you feel great and arrogant.

Koki Iwasaki: "You must not say that. Iraq is a country with an excellent history and a splendid culture. It is an honor for the Sanling Group and the Iwasaki family to come here for inspection and investment."

"I feel the enthusiasm of His Excellency the President and the Second Young Master, and I am even more confident about this cooperation and investment."

Attitude is important, after all, it is the key to Mitsubishi Group's ability to exploit oil in Iraq. It can be said that the Japanese are really fighting for oil.

And he knew how much concessions his father had made in order to convince other members of the family to agree to Mitsubishi Heavy Industries going to Iraq to exploit oil and invest in building shipyards.

Members of the Iwasaki family know that investing in oil fields in the Middle East was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity, so they must seize it. But there is no need to invest in building shipyards in Iraq.

The shipyard first requires a large amount of steel, as there are no iron ores in Iraq; it also requires a large number of mature skilled workers, which no other country in the Middle East except Israel has. If neither of the above is available, a supporting steel plant must be built first. However, coal in Iraq also has no mineral deposits; as for natural gas steelmaking, the caloric value does not meet the requirements. Ordinary steel may be OK, but forget about special steel!

Moreover, there is no natural harbor in Iraq; therefore, the time and money required to build a large shipyard will be difficult to estimate. After a comprehensive analysis, it is very uneconomical.

Japan also does not have resources, but it does not lack in other aspects; the most important thing is that it has a strong industrial base. So it is better to produce them in Japan and sell them to Iraq. Even if the price is lower, it doesn't matter. It's an exchange of interests.

Hearing this, Iwasaki Eiichi almost fainted. It's not because the family members find so many reasons, and their ideas are too naive. If the Mitsubishi Group is managed by these people, sooner or later there will be trouble.

Isn’t Iraq’s purpose obvious enough? If Mitsubishi wants to be qualified to exploit oil, it must go to Iraq to invest and build factories. Although this is not written in the contract, some things go hand in hand.

In fact, the other members of the Iwasaki family are not stupid, and of course they understand what is going on. It's just that they can't do anything good if they are all occupied by one person, so what's the use of them? Although Iwasaki Eiichi is the patriarch, others need the right to speak; they also hope that the company they are responsible for can develop and grow.

This is what a large family is like, if the founder is still alive. Then the problem will be simple, and everyone will listen to his opinion. But for a family like this that has been passed down for hundreds of years, it is impossible for one family to have the final say. Even as a clan leader, he needs to seek everyone's opinions on many things.

In the end, there was really no other way, so Iwasaki Eiichi made a compromise. It was agreed to allocate part of the funds to support Mitsubishi Real Estate's outward expansion; at the same time, it cut off some other projects of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

In other words, except for oil exploration in Iraq, construction of shipyards, and research and development and manufacturing of flying saucers, other Mitsubishi Heavy Industries projects will be delayed or cancelled.

Leave the funds to other companies and the matter will be settled.

Although Bao Zixuan didn't know about the Iwasaki family's internal decision, he would definitely applaud if he knew about it. At present, industrial competition is very fierce, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. If Mitsubishi fails to keep up with the development of the times, it will become more difficult to catch up.
