Resource Tycoon Reborn

Chapter 119 The bet was right

"He's really a Chinese!" Qi Weiqiang was very excited when he saw the code that Liu Yan called back. Being able to meet a Chinese in this Nordic country, not to mention whether he can be of help when the time comes, it's just that the two sides can sit together.

What a fate!

Lin Rong was also very happy. Except for her, all the people who came with Fang Mingyuan this time were men, and there were no peers. Most of the talks with the Nokia Group had already been basically completed before they came.

After it was settled, Fan Mingyuan came here just for final confirmation. As for those improvised plans, currently only framework negotiations were needed. Fan Mingyuan and Nokia executives could finalize it. Detailed terms negotiations were now used.

She couldn't, so she felt a little bored. Liu Yan's appearance naturally made her feel like there were more than one person talking.

"Are you really Chinese?" Liu Yan said with a face of surprise, "I've been looking there for a long time, but I still can't confirm your identity. I was wondering if you were Japanese or Korean. But judging from your temperament and

Judging from your conversation, I don’t think you are Japanese or Korean, so I took the liberty to come over and ask.”

"Why do you think we are Japanese and Koreans?" Lin Rong couldn't help but feel a little strange. Liu Yan smiled awkwardly and said nothing. But Fang Mingyuan had already understood and explained a few words to Lin Rong. Lin Rong then

relieved.

"Then how did you come to Finland?" Lin Rong couldn't help but become more curious.

"I came to Finland with our factory director to buy scrap ships. Look, factory director Qi and accountant Qin are over there." Liu Yan pointed at Qi Weiqiang and the others. Qi Weiqiang and the others naturally joined in.

come over.

"Buying a scrap ship? Are you buying an old ship?" Lin Rong said in surprise. This old ship can be repaired and used for a few years after being bought back. What does it mean to buy a scrap ship?

"No, I'm buying a scrap ship!" Liu Yan shook his head and said.

"Director Qi, are you from the ship-breaking yard?" Fang Mingyuan asked with a smile.

"Yes! We are Shuguang Shipyard, a subsidiary of East China Shipyard. Over the years, the performance of our state-owned enterprise has been sluggish, and our factory's orders have become less and less. There is nothing we can do about it. Everyone has come up with an idea. Since we can build

, then in turn, ship scrapping is no problem! And don’t underestimate ship scrapping, it is also an important link in the ship industry chain! The development of the ship scrapping industry is conducive to protecting the marine and other water environments, and accelerating the elimination of scrap ships.

Realize resource recycling and promote the healthy and sustainable development of the shipbuilding industry." Qi Weiqiang said, waving his arms.

"Director Qi!" Accountant Qin on the side whispered, then reached out and poked his waist.

Only then did Qi Weiqiang react, and he smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, I have been constantly cheering up the workers in the factory these days, and this is all right!" Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

"Director Qi, I can understand buying old ships, but is it profitable to buy scrap ships and dismantle them?" Lin Rong asked curiously.

"It can't be said to be very big, but it is indeed profitable. Now we can't get orders. If this continues, the workers in the factory will be confused. We can't care about so much anymore, even if it is only a small profit.

At least the workers will have something to do, the equipment will be running, and the dock will not be abandoned." Qi Weiqiang grinned and said with a bitter look on his face, "This is better than sitting back and having nothing to do."

"Then how much can the shipping company give you if you dismantle a ship?" Lin Rong's layman's question made Qi Weiqiang and others laugh.

"It's not that the shipping company pays them, but that they have to buy the scrap ships from the shipping company and transport them back to the country for scrapping!" Fang Mingyuan had read some information about the shipbuilding and shipbreaking industries in his previous life, so he knew a little bit about it.

"Ah?" Lin Rong covered her mouth in surprise. If she bought the boat back and then dismantled it, there would be no profit at all!

"Our ship-breaking yards buy ships that are to be scrapped from shipping companies, and then dismantle the ships and resell the scrap steel on the ships. In recent years, the world's steel consumption has been increasing day by day, and the steel industry

The production capacity is also constantly increasing, and the price of the main raw material iron ore is also rising. As a renewable resource, scrap steel has become the main substitute for iron ore with its advantages of low natural loss, high utilization rate and low pollution emissions.

, the demand has increased significantly, and many steel mills in the United States and Japan require a large amount of scrap steel every year. The ship-breaking industry, whose final product is scrap steel, has benefited from this!" Qi Weiqiang explained, "And some parts and equipment on the ship can also be repeated.

What we use, these are where our profits lie.”

Lin Rong nodded with some understanding.

"Director Qi, why did you come so far to buy scrap ships?" Fang Mingyuan asked casually, leaning on the railing. Although Finland can be considered a big shipping country, with dozens of ports, the annual cargo throughput is also dozens.

Billion tons, there are hundreds of merchant ships of all kinds, but there are many shipping countries in the world, such as Japan, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, and Italy, which sell a large number of scrap ships every year.

"Hey!" Qi Weiqiang let out a long sigh before he spoke, "Didn't we just turn into a ship-breaking yard? Money is tight, so it doesn't matter. Those shipping companies that are easy to contact will eliminate the scrap ships every year.

They were being watched closely. It was difficult to get ships from those places! We also heard the news by chance that two freighters of Finnish Shipping would be scrapped and sold in the near future, so we came here in a hurry.

, no one expected that even the person in charge of Finnish Shipping has not been seen after three days here!"

"If this were all, we could wait patiently, but the prices here in Finland are too high, which are simply unbearable for the three of us. And we also heard that an Indian shipbreaking company has also come to Finland.

Their target must also be those two scrap ships." Accountant Qin said with a grimace. As an accountant, he is even more sensitive to the prices in Finland.

"Indian ship-breaking companies?" Fang Mingyuan pondered for a moment. He seemed to vaguely remember that in the new century, the world's main ship-breaking centers were in several countries in the Indian subcontinent, while China had slipped from the top.

Although it can still be considered a big country in the shipbreaking industry, its share is nothing compared with that of several countries in the Indian subcontinent. However, in the mid-1990s, the Indians had already begun to expand their

Shipbreaking industry?

I believe most Chinese people don't have a good impression of Indian Asan, so Fang Mingyuan doesn't mind helping the Chinese when he steps on them.

Fang Mingyuan turned to look at the Nokia escort in the distance and waved. The man immediately walked over quickly.

"Please help me check. Are there any guests from Finnish Shipping Company in this banquet hall now?" Fang Mingyuan said bluntly.

Qi Weiqiang and the other two looked at each other excitedly. This time they made the right bet!
