Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth

Chapter 204: Journey to the Deep Sea 1

After arranging some matters for the Berlin Consumer Electronics Show and the Frankfurt Auto Show, Bao Zixuan returned to Xiangjiang. China has officially designated Shenhai City as a special economic zone. In response to national needs, Huo Yingdong organized a group of Xiangjiang businessmen to come and support him. See if he can

Huo Lao always considers the country when investing in and building factories in the deep sea. He often uses his influence to bring Xiangjiang businessmen to invest in the mainland, and he also invests in and builds many large-scale projects.

After Bao Zixuan returned to Xiangjiang, he just rested at home for a day and came to Huo Mansion early in the morning. Many Xiangjiang tycoons had already arrived there in advance. When Bao Zixuan came, everyone said hello to him.

Dong Haoyun: "Xiaobao, I haven't seen you for a few months, but your efforts are getting bigger every time. Not long after I just acquired Hutchison Whampoa, I acquired two car brands in the United States, and the sales at the exhibition reached more than 1 billion US dollars. You kid!

We made more money in two years than we did in 20 years.”

Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Dong is joking, it's just a fluke. I still have a long way to go compared to your seniors, but I haven't seen you for a few months, Mr. Dong, and you look much better. Is there any happy news?"

Dong Haoyun: "Xiao Bao knows me well. I just bought the world's largest oil tanker with the largest displacement. Once completed, it will definitely bring the Dong family's shipping business to a higher level."

Hearing this, Bao Zixuan knew that sometimes history is really difficult to change. Because of the foundation of cooperation with Heiyun, Dong Haoyun's appetite grew bigger and bigger, "He strived to be the best in the world in everything. The oil tankers at that time were the largest.

60,000 tons, he wants to order 80,000 tons; others develop to 100,000 tons, he wants 120,000 tons." Since 1967, Dong Haoyun has successively asked RB Sasebo Shipyard and other

Several shipyards have successively ordered three batches of very large oil tankers with a load capacity of more than 220,000 tons, with 6 ships in each batch, a total of 18 ships. The first two batches of 220,000 tons were already very large oil tankers, and the third batch has impressively entered the 30

The super-large oil tanker stage of more than 10,000 tons. Such 18 extremely large oil tankers are enough to form a giant fleet. Such a big spirit is so majestic that it makes the world stunned!

Dong Haoyun did not stop, and later bought the 360,000-ton "Brazilian Glory" and the 380,000-ton "Brazilian Vision". But this was not the climax of the story.

In 1976, a Greek shipowner ordered a 420,000-ton oil tanker at RB Sumitomo Heavy Industries’ Oppama Shipyard in Yokosuka. However, God’s calculations failed and the Greek went bankrupt before the tanker was completed. In 1979, the Greek shipowner went bankrupt.

, this oil tanker fell into the hands of Dong Haoyun.

But Dong Haoyun still thought it was not big enough. He was determined to be the best in the world, even if it was only a little bigger. So he handed this problem to the chief engineer Huang Cifa. After careful design and careful calculation, Huang Cifa came up with a different idea: 420,000 tons

The ship was cut in the middle and a section was added. This addition added 140,000 tons, making it the "Sea Giant" with a deadweight of 564,763.

On December 19, 1980, the "Sea Giant" was successfully launched, causing a sensation in Japan and the world. It is worthy of being the largest ship in the world, and is longer than the world's largest aircraft carrier, the US Navy's Nimitz-class aircraft carrier.

More than 120 meters, and 8 times heavier!

The development of oil tankers into "sea giants" can be said to have reached its pinnacle, unprecedented and unparalleled so far! "Sea giants" are mankind's greatest masterpieces on the sea, and the winding tracks behind them are reminiscent of human beings on land.

The greatest masterpiece - the Great Wall of China!

"Sea Giant" also marked the peak of Dong Haoyun's shipping career. From a 16-year-old boy entering the shipping industry in 1928, after decades of turbulent times, he finally established a fleet of 150 ships with a total tonnage of more than 11 million

The powerful fleet - twice that of the Greek shipping king Onassis. He and Bao Yugang, another Ningbo native, were like two peaks in the clouds, and they jointly ascended the throne of "World Shipping King"!

But now I don’t know how to persuade Dong Haoyun. The Sea Giant is the pinnacle of the Dong family’s career, and it is also the source of almost bankruptcy. As the oil crisis intensified, it brought about a shipping crisis. As a result, the Dong family almost went bankrupt. Fortunately, both sons are very happy.

He has the ability, and Dong Haoyun had many friends during his lifetime, so everyone helped him at the critical moment! It seems that he can only contribute some money to help the Dong family tide over the difficulties, but he still needs to be reminded.

Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Dong, the current oil market is very unstable. There may not be a need for too many tankers in the future. I feel it is better to buy more cargo ships."

Dong Haoyun is now obsessed with surpassing Bao Yugang and becoming the world's number one shipping king, but he still listened to some of Bao Xuan's words. He knows that things must be reversed at the extremes, and too many oil tankers is really not a good thing. It seems that some oil tanker procurement contracts will be reduced in the future, which is also a disguised form.

Help the Dong family!

Huo Yingdong came over and said: "Little Baosheng, we are ready and waiting for you. But this time you have set an example for Xiangjiang businessmen. You even bought an American car brand. This has greatly improved our family in Xiangjiang."

The ambition of a businessman.”

Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Huo has won many awards. These are insignificant compared to your previous feats."

Huo Yingdong: "Well, what feats I have now are all in the past. I asked you to come back this time because I want to go to the deep sea together and build a new industrial zone in Shekou country. Xiangjiang businessmen are very welcome to invest.

, I'll go over there tomorrow and see how it goes. In addition, your car pass has been processed for you, so you can drive there directly."

Bao Zixuan knew that except for the roads in a few special cities, it was difficult to travel anywhere else in the mainland. So when he decided to go to the deep sea, he expressed his concerns to Huo Yingdong and wanted to drive Black Cloud Knight XV there. Otherwise,

No one knows how much punishment he will suffer!

However, after Huo Yingdong told Bao Zixuan's request to the leaders of Shenhai City, they did not dare to make the decision. After all, there was no precedent before. Not only did Shenhai City not dare to make a decision, but they also did not dare to make an independent decision when the report was submitted to Nanyue Province. In the end, it was still up to the highest level.

Only after the special approval did we have the precedent of being able to drive directly there.

After all, everything now has to be crossed by feeling the stones, and many things and policies have to be changed and tilted accordingly. This is what Huo Yingdong applied for, plus it was Bao Zixuan's car, otherwise it would be impossible to do it.

In the words of the top management: "If you don't even let people come over with a car, why would they invest a lot of money in you? Why should they trust you and do anything special?"

It's just that Bao Zixuan didn't know, and he didn't expect that things would be so troublesome. After all, there were many license plates in Xiangjiang and Shenhai in the previous life, and a large number of vehicles traveled between the two places every day.

Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Huo, who among us will go there tomorrow?"

Huo Yingdong: "You, me, Dong Sheng and Bao Sheng. The four of us will go explore the way first. The other people have to check the situation. Besides, there are too many people going there and Shenhai City can't handle them. The infrastructure there is not good now."

Very good, you have to be mentally prepared."

But we can only go there, and the bodyguards and entourage are waiting for us at the port. I hope you can understand this.

Bao Zixuan: "I have no problem, but now it seems that I can only drive you three; I will wait for you at the port at what time."

Huo Yingdong: "We are old, and most people can't drive your car. We will meet at Luohu Port on time at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. We will go directly there in your car."

Bao Zixuan: "No problem, but my car consumes a lot of fuel. There is a supply of diesel in Shenhai City! And how can we exchange for Chinese currency? After all, the mainland is not financially well-off now, and we can no longer ask people to pay for us. This is also a problem.

It’s not a small fee.”

Huo Yingdong did not expect that Bao Zixuan would consider it in such detail. It seemed that it made sense for this young man to make a fortune. He was smart, bold, and careful, and had all the conditions to become a big entrepreneur.

Huo Yingdong: "There is still diesel. You don't need to bring Chinese coins. I will pay for all the expenses. You can just bring some US dollars, which can be exchanged in the deep sea."

After Huo Fu finalized the details of going to the deep sea, Bao Zixuan returned home. He also wanted to have a good rest. After all, he would be driving for three tycoons tomorrow and there was no room for sloppiness.
