Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

The State of Qatar, commonly known as Qatar. It is an Arab country in southwest Asia, located on the Qatar Peninsula on the southwest coast of the Persian Gulf, bordering Saudi Arabia to the south. The coastline is 563 kilometers long.

Speaking of Qatar, many people know this country. Qatar not only has a great influence in the Middle East, but also has a great influence on the entire international community. The reason for this is that this country is rich in oil and natural gas resources. With these resources, Qatar's influence has become very large. However, as a Middle Eastern country, Qatar does not have a good reputation in the Middle East. It can be said that Qatar has offended almost all Middle Eastern countries, and Saudi Arabia even wants to dig it into an island country.

Therefore, although the Saudi royal family said nothing about Bao Zixuan's desire to go to Qatar, they were not very happy in their hearts. Fortunately, my father-in-law was there to smooth things over, otherwise I wouldn't have known how to explain it.

In fact, the richest man Bao felt that he was investing in Israel, and the Arab countries did not say anything. Why was there such a big response in Qatar? I didn’t understand the reason until Prince Sultan explained it.

The Gulf region has always been characterized by complex conflicts, and relations between Qatar and neighboring countries continue to be tense. The crisis of severing diplomatic relations in 2017 in the previous life was the result of the continuous accumulation of related conflicts.

The conflicts between the two sides generally stem from two major contradictions; one is the issue of the Muslim Brotherhood. Qatar's support has led to the continued expansion of the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood, and it has become a dissident force that threatens the stability of many royal families and countries in the Gulf. However, Qatar regards it as the main lever to restrict other countries and expand its own interests. This has long-term unharmony between Qatar and other Gulf countries.

The second is the Iranian issue. Saudi Arabia has always regarded Iran as a regional competitor; however, Qatar has always had good relations with Iran. Not only does it share the "North-South Pars Natural Gas Field", but it has also repeatedly recognized Iran's role in maintaining regional stability.

We are all Arab brothers, but you are on good terms with the Persians. Isn't this betraying brothers and helping the enemy? And this kind of person often causes greater harm to the family than external enemies, and is certainly more hated!

Bao Shaofu, who knew the whole story, arrived in Qatar with Ayesha's reluctance. But he has already decided to invest in Qatar, so forget it! The best thing to say is that after all, Saudi Arabia cannot feel that Heiyun Group and itself are unreliable because of this, otherwise so many years of hard work will be in vain!

Qatar paid enough attention to Bao Zixuan's arrival. Crown Prince Hamad personally greeted him at the Shaka border. This is the treatment you would expect when a foreign head of state comes over.

The two had already met in Paris, so they were quite familiar. As the crown prince, of course he knows the relationship between Bao Zixuan and Saudi Arabia. I didn't expect this kid to dare to go directly from Saudi Arabia to Qatar. He is really brave for a talented person. Even American dignitaries cannot enter Qatar from Saudi Arabia to avoid suspicion. After all, the emotions of both parties have to be taken care of, but who would have thought that Bao Zixuan would dare to do this.

Now it seems that we really need to interact more with young people, because the thinking of the older generation has fallen behind.

Hamad gave Bao Zixuan a hug and said with a smile: "Welcome, my friend from afar."

Qatar is not a very big country, with a population of only 2 million; it cannot support a large amount of oil and natural gas. For such a country, no company can ignore it. Besides oil and natural gas, the country has no other industries.

Qatar has 28,000 hectares of arable land nationwide, and 7,000 hectares of cultivated land. We cannot be self-sufficient in agricultural and animal husbandry products, and we mainly rely on imports of grain, vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs, milk, etc. Only fish and shrimp seafood production can basically meet domestic demand.

It can be said that this country has no bright spots except for its oil and natural gas. But just because the oil and natural gas reserves are so abundant, and the country is small and the people are few, life is quite comfortable.

But this is an important market for Mr. Bao. Fucaira is smaller and has a smaller population. As for Heiyun Group, it is just an enterprise at best. It may be said that you are as rich as a country, but you want others to truly recognize you as a country; unless you have your own territory.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "I promised His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, then I must come. I am a businessman and have always adhered to neutrality. I never participate in matters between countries, and I don't want to participate. Qatar is a country with rich resources, economic It is a highly developed country. There is no reason for Heiyun Group not to come and take a look. Even if they cannot cooperate and have no chance to invest, they still have to investigate and find out what the reason is."

In fact, Qatar has always pursued a neutral and non-aligned foreign policy. It's just that some things cannot be decided by oneself at all, so in the eyes of other Arab countries, it is a bit out of place. When Bao Zixuan said these words, Hamad was still very happy.

He is really a pure businessman, and may be biased towards Fucaira. But that place is so big, if Heiyun Group really moves there, it might not be able to fit in it. As an entrepreneur with factories on every continent in the world, Qatar can fully rely on Heiyun Group to develop its own industrial system.

Countries in the Middle East know that oil resources may make them rich, but they are still far from becoming powerful. But before, whether it was the United States or Europe, they just wanted to exploit oil here. As for investing in industry, I'm sorry. They will always find various reasons to refuse, but Bao Zixuan has invested and built many industrial enterprises in the Middle East.

Although Qatar is inferior to European and American countries, it has no industrial foundation. But the investment environment is much better than that of Iraq and Israel. If you can invest in both countries, there shouldn't be much of a problem in Qatar.

After seeing the car, Mr. Bao wanted to laugh very much. Wherever he goes now, he will be greeted by black cloud cars. However, this can also be reflected from the side. The influence of Heiyun Group is growing. Otherwise, why would so many countries and institutions cater to you?

Looking at the scenery along the way, Mr. Bao fell into deep thought. Although Middle Eastern countries are rich in oil and natural gas, they are very wealthy. But when it comes to domestic infrastructure construction, I really don’t care that much. Although the road was built, the land on both sides was wasted.

Perhaps sensing Bao Zixuan's thoughts, Hamad said with emotion: "Mr. Bao, do you feel that Qatar's economy is a bit backward?"

This guy has studied in Europe and the United States for many years, so he certainly knows the differences between countries. Perhaps not only in terms of industry and economy, but most importantly in terms of thinking and vision, it cannot keep up with the level of developed countries in the world.

Bao Zixuan: "I was born in Xiangjiang, where every inch of land is precious. In the past few years, housing prices in Xiangjiang have reached more than 3,000 US dollars per square meter. It is a pity to see such a large area of ​​land without any construction."

Hamad certainly understands what is going on. Although Qatar is a small country, there is even less land that can be truly utilized. This is a huge waste, and if the royal family can find a way to solve it, this situation should never happen.

But now he is only the crown prince and cannot make the final decision. But I also want to go back and have a good discussion with my father. If the country wants to be strong, it must make changes. Otherwise, it will only give people the impression that they are rich and stupid and have too much money.

Qatar has a very good relationship with the United States and is also a country that purchases large amounts of U.S. Treasury bonds. If they are allowed to increase domestic infrastructure construction, Heiyun Group can make money at the same time. The amount of U.S. Treasury bonds purchased will also decrease accordingly. This can also play a role in limiting the development of the United States. Although it is not big, even a mosquito can bite a little blood.

Hamad: "Although Xiangjiang's area is not large, less than one-tenth of Qatar's, its population is three times that of ours. As for the total economic volume, it far exceeds Qatar's. This is still based on no resources. . If we have conditions like Qatar, it is really unimaginable what kind of miracles the people of Xiangjiang will create."

"This is inseparable from the hard work of the people of Xiangjiang, and is directly related to having great entrepreneurs like Mr. Bao. It was with the purpose of learning and the hope that Heiyun Group could come to Qatar to invest that we invited Mr. Bao to Qatar for inspection. I hope this time I can make a good impression on you.”

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "When I do business, the geographical environment is one aspect; the most important thing is whether it is worth cooperating and whether we can continue to cooperate for a long time."

"So it mainly depends on the people and the economy is backward; as long as the people in power want to change the status quo and are not lacking in ability and courage, then this place is still worth investing in."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I have a good rapport. I believe that Qatar and Black Cloud Group will be able to cooperate well."

Bao Zixuan's attitude made Hamad very happy. As long as the other party recognizes his ability, everything will be easy!
