"Smith, you just talked to that person, how do you feel about his attitude towards you?" Among the representatives of the Maersk Group, a middle-aged Caucasian man with a hooked nose asked Amundson.

Amundsen glanced at Li Xianlong hatefully and said, "Mo, Fang's attitude is okay. At least I don't think he has any hostility towards us. But this Li is a big trouble!" This middle-aged man is

Mo Williams, head of Maersk Group's Asia division in Singapore.

Williams shook his head slightly and said: "Smith, the methods used by Li back then are very common here in Asia. I can only say that you don't understand the thinking mode of Easterners. Of course, from reality,

For us, he is indeed a strong competitor and a big trouble!"

"Mo, this Li is a guy who can make honey flow from his mouth. If Kuok Shipping Group Company and Singapore Port Group cooperate, it will be difficult for us to win the share of the core essence of this deep-water port project." Amundsen

Worryingly.

Although rumors have been circulating in Europe that the two companies are going to merge, not many people actually know that as early as last year, that is, in 1999, the core levels of the two companies had actually reached an agreement.

Cooperate closely, gradually integrate, and finally merge to jointly fight against the development policy of Mediterranean Shipping. Although Maersk Group and China Railway Corporation are still two companies that have nothing to do with each other in terms of equity, in many aspects, the two companies

Senior officials are already interested in coordinating cooperation with each other.

This time, the two companies have joined forces to pursue the Yangdao deep-water port project, which can be regarded as a big move for the two companies this year. Amundsen and he are the heads of the Asia aspects of their respective companies. The final result of this cooperation will be of great significance to

The future development prospects of both of them can be said to be very important.

Williams, in particular, wanted to talk to Fang Mingyuan to see if the Asian branch of Maersk Group could lease one or two supertankers from Kuok Shipping Group. After entering the second millennium, the economies of East Asian countries have experienced strong economic growth.

The recovery momentum has also put forward more and higher requirements for energy supply. The result is that on the crude oil transportation route from the Middle East to East Asia, oil tankers are like crucian carp crossing the river, with an endless flow. Maersk Group is working with Japan and China

Two large oil refineries in China are discussing and want to take over their crude oil transportation contracts.

Once a formal agreement is reached between the two parties, Maersk Group's influence in the Asian shipping industry will undoubtedly be further enhanced. However, what gives Williams a headache now is that if it really wins these two contracts

, then Maersk Group will face a serious shortage of crude oil transportation capacity on the route from the Middle East to East Asia.

Williams has thought about leasing oil tankers from ship leasing companies, but to his helplessness, most of the ships left by leasing companies are old and single-hull oil tankers with a load of about 100,000 tons.

, there are no supertankers at all. These single-hull tankers, which are old and have low load capacity, will undoubtedly increase the operating costs of the ships and the risk of leaks. And if they are adjusted from other divisions in Europe and America, the two

The transportation capacity of most branches is not too loose now. Moreover, the transportation capacity of Zhahua Railway is also quite tight. Even if you want to temporarily borrow the transportation capacity, it is not easy.

It was not that he had never thought about simply ordering two new supertankers from the shipyard. The shipping industry had just emerged from the shadow of the economic crisis. Just in the first half of the year, he heard that many shipyards had no ships to build at all, and even

There is no company to accept the ship. In this way, as long as the transportation capacity is tight in the first few months and the new ship is launched, the problem of insufficient transportation capacity will be solved. But once we understand it, we know that Japan and South Korea can build super

The oil tanker shipyard has currently placed orders until March next year.

Due to the large number of oil tanker orders placed by Kuok Shipping Group and companies whose origins are unknown, and as the world economy recovers and the shipping industry is back on track, many shipping companies are aware of the need to increase shipping capacity, and Maersk Group has been

It is planning to merge with Tiehang Zhua. By then, the ships and personnel of the two companies will definitely need to be integrated. Therefore, in the past few years, if it is not necessary, both Maersk Group and Tiehang Zhua will

This has reduced the intensity of ship procurement. This is one of the important reasons why Mediterranean Shipping has been able to quickly close the distance with the Maersk Group and widen the distance with the Railway Company in the past two years.

Although Williams is also actively looking for suitable leasing ships, he has also heard that Guo's Shipping Group has been continuously accepting new supertankers to join the fleet, and currently, Guo's Shipping

The group company has just lost a big customer, and maybe they have excess shipping capacity. If they can buy two ships at the right price, then it is naturally the most suitable. If not, rent them for a while and give yourself a

Buffer time is also a good choice. The crude oil transportation contracts negotiated by Maersk Group and the two large refineries in Japan and China have considerable annual carrying capacity. If it cannot be obtained due to insufficient transportation capacity, then

What a pity.

But Williams was not sure what Fang Mingyuan's attitude would be on this matter. Although Fang Mingyuan didn't understand them, how could they understand Fang Mingyuan!

The yacht has arrived near Xiaoyang Island. "Mr. Li!" Sang Haoyuan got rid of the entanglement of Mitsuko Itochu and Nakao Tsunoda at this time, walked over and held Li Xianlong's hand, "We welcome you Singapore Port Authority

The group company has joined the construction of Yangdao Deep Water Port. Along the way, does Mr. Li have any ideas about the Yangdao Deep Water Port project? Don’t hide anything."

Li Xianlong said with a smile on his face: "Mayor Sang, I really envy you. You can find such a good deep-water port site. I am completely optimistic about the future cargo handling capacity of Yangdao Deep-water Port. I believe it will

It will definitely become a very important hub port in East Asia in the future!"

The two of them exchanged words with each other and communicated enthusiastically, but there was not much substance in the conversation. It was obvious that both parties had the idea of ​​​​not letting the rabbit out of sight, but Fang Mingyuan was a little bored.

"Mr. Li? I forgot to ask, what position do you hold in the Singapore Port Group?" Fang Mingyuan interrupted and asked. This Li Xianlong should not be among the representatives of the Singapore Port Group at first. Fang Mingyuan also got on the ship today and found out.

, there is such a number one person in the Port of Singapore Group.

"Aha, doesn't Mr. Fang know that Mr. Li is the General Manager of China Port of Singapore Port Group?" Sang Haoyuan said in surprise.

"I only know that he is from the Singapore Port Group and the father of two daughters." Fang Mingyuan shrugged. The general manager of China District? It sounds like he is also a very important person.

"In front of Mr. Fang, is there any point in talking about these positions? Mr. Fang is the co-president of three major companies. And we are just errand boys below." Li Xianlong joked, "It is better to talk to Mr. Fang.

My two daughters, who regard him as their idol, impressed him even more." It must be said that Li Xianlong is very good at talking, and just a few words are very comfortable to listen to.

"Mr. Li, you have two daughters? Congratulations to you!" Sang Haoyuan also smiled, "A daughter is a cute little cotton-padded jacket for parents. Compared with a boy, it is much easier to worry about. The boy in my family

, I get a headache when I talk about him, and I don’t know where I learned those strange words, and they sound specious. Hey, I recently watched a movie called "Death" from someone who doesn't know where.

"Come", when I have nothing to do, I wonder if this is advocating the cycle of cause and effect."

Li Xianlong glanced at Fang Mingyuan, and Fang Mingyuan twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly. "Death is Coming" should not have entered the Chinese film market yet, and Sang Haoyuan's son probably watched it as a pirated version. I don't know how old Sang Haoyuan's son is.

At my age, I can actually think of the cause and effect cycle after watching "Death Comes".

"Speaking of movies, I'm really looking forward to "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" being released around Christmas. Hey, President Fang, when will it be released in Singapore?" Li Xianlong laughed, "If it's too late, I might as well

I took the two girls to Hong Kong to see them, so that they would not be nagging in my ears all day long, like cutting flesh with a dull knife, which would drive me crazy."

Fang Mingyuan spread his hands and said: "Anyway, Singapore will definitely arrive later than Hong Kong. If Mr. Li is in a hurry, he might as well go to Hong Kong for a weekend. As long as conditions and time permit, I will definitely welcome you. You can stay in my hotel

I can satisfy the rich daughter's request in a private cinema. Even if I'm not here, I can let the three of them watch it in the small screening room in the headquarters building of Kumho Film Group in Hong Kong." Fang Mingyuan has an intuition that Li Xianlong is not the president of China District.

The manager is such a simple person, and he has been showing kindness to him just now, so Fang Mingyuan doesn't mind more contact between the two parties.

Li Xianlong immediately beamed with joy and said: "That's great, my two little aunts will definitely be very happy!"

"Damn guys!" Looking at Li Xianlong and Fang Mingyuan, Sang Haoyuan couldn't help laughing. Amundsen was so angry that his teeth were itching with hatred. Even Williams, who didn't care at first, gradually became impatient.

The size of Dayang Island and its affiliated islands is not large, and the yacht quickly circled them twice to ensure that those on board could clearly see the situation of these islands, and then began to return. (To be continued.
