Li Jianxi had a kind smile on her face, touched her hair and said, "Then you have to cherish this opportunity. I believe Mr. Fang will be able to give you some good constructive suggestions!"

"President Li, your words have put me on the fire!" Fang Mingyuan said with a bitter smile. As a semi-otaku in his previous life, he didn't have any good experience in amusement parks, theme parks, etc.

Li Jianxi smiled, handed the phone to his daughter and said: "Young Master Fang, this is really in line with the old saying in your country, good fortune never comes in pairs, misfortune never comes alone!"

Fang Mingyuan was startled and blurted out: "Could it be that something happened to Diamond Cruises Co., Ltd. again?"

Li Jianxi shook his head and said: "No, but it's almost the same."

It turned out that Cui Taiyan, chairman of SK Group, had just told him the news that just this morning, four or five hours ago, a Panamanian oil tanker leaked water in Indonesia's second largest seaport, which is also Indonesia's main trade and commercial city.

In the incident, it was parked near the port waiting to enter the port and was hit from the side by another Philippine cargo ship, causing serious damage to the hull. The tanker carried more than 7,500 tons of crude oil, which caused a large amount of crude oil to pour into the sea, causing

Serious marine pollution. The Indonesian government is currently actively providing disaster relief, and there is no specific figure for the amount of crude oil leaked.

"Ah?" Li Xintong opened her mouth from ear to ear in surprise.

"Could it be that it's another single-hull oil tanker?" Fang Mingyuan asked immediately. Li Jianxi nodded heavily.

"I don't know where Cui Taiyan heard it from. You are in South Korea now, so you want to meet Fang Shaohan through me." Li Jianxi said with a slightly proud smile, "It's rare for him to ask for anything from me.

It’s such a joyful time.”

Fang Mingyuan understood the truth in his heart. As the largest energy and chemical company in South Korea, SK Group undoubtedly transports the most crude oil back to South Korea from overseas every year. In less than a week, what happened in the East Asian waters and Southeast Asian waters

Two incidents of crude oil leakage from single-hull tankers have made the Koreans, who have become frightened, unavoidable in their concerns about single-hull tanker transportation.

Although SK Group has made a high-profile announcement that it will refuse to continue to perform the contract if Japan Diamond Cruises Co., Ltd. does not use double-hull tankers to transport crude oil, this is based on the fact that Diamond Cruises Co., Ltd.'s crude oil transportation volume only accounts for what SK Group needs.

A small part of the crude oil. Without the transportation capacity of Japan Diamond Cruise Co., Ltd., SK Group can completely re-sign transportation agreements with other shipping companies. In this way, it not only draws a clear line with Diamond Cruise Co., Ltd., but also improves itself.

Although there is a financial loss in terms of the image in the minds of the Chinese people, the overall balance is not a loss at all.

However, if Koreans are more concerned about the risk of crude oil leakage from single-hull tankers, then as the largest importer of crude oil in South Korea, SK Group will also have to consider how to properly deal with this matter. In a short period of time,

It is absolutely impossible to ask the shipping companies responsible for SK Group's crude oil transportation to replace all single-hull oil tankers with double-hull oil tankers. Double-hull oil tankers are not simply single-hull oil tankers with a layer of shell added on top! The entire East Asia

, among the shipping companies including Southeast Asia, with the exception of Kuok Shipping Group, no double-hulled oil tanker can account for 30% of the deadweight tonnage in the oil tanker fleet! Nowadays, shipping companies around the world

Among them, there are only shipping companies with contracts to transport crude oil to the United States. They have a relatively large number of double-hull oil tankers. Even European shipping companies have much higher deadweight tonnage of single-hull oil tankers than double-hull oil tankers.

It is impossible to require shipping companies to replace all oil tankers with double-hull oil tankers, but SK Group can take a proactive stance, which at least shows that it is actively responding to this incident. Although the opinions of the public are important,

But we can’t ask the company to do something that is simply impossible.

"Of course I have to give you President Li's face!" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile. If you don't break the money, it will be in vain!

SK Group is not only South Korea's largest energy and chemical enterprise, but also an important information and communication enterprise in South Korea. SK Telecom, South Korea's largest mobile communication operator, is a member of SK Group. In its hands, it also controls cdma2000 and wcdma technologies.

Multiple patent rights.

Cui Taiyan hurriedly flew from the SK Group headquarters to Busan, where a sea speedboat was ready to quickly take him to Li Jianxi's yacht.

Cui Taiyan secretly cursed Li Jianxi. He is the boss of the largest group company in South Korea. Why didn't he buy a yacht with a helicopter platform? Otherwise, why would he go to such trouble?

But he had to rush there quickly. The oil spill outside Surabaya Port in Indonesia, no matter how much crude oil was ultimately leaked, was just like spreading a pinch of salt on the hearts of the already worried Korean people! Although

It is said that South Korea is already a developed country today, but many years ago, fishery was South Korea's pillar industry, and its land area of ​​less than 100,000 square kilometers made every Korean extremely serious about the importance of territory. A sudden

The crude oil leak caused serious pollution to the coast near Busan and also affected the East China Sea. This undoubtedly sounded the alarm in the hearts of the Korean people.

Although these oil refining companies in South Korea have drawn a clear line with Japan Diamond Cruises Co., Ltd. in the past two days, this alone is not enough.

Currently, among the companies involved in the refining and chemical industry in South Korea, only Samsung has not been criticized because the oil tankers used by Kuok Shipping Group Co., Ltd., which is responsible for its crude oil transportation, are double-hulled supertankers less than one year old.

It is said to be the safest maritime crude oil transportation ship at present. If SK Group wants to get a good reputation in the minds of the Korean people, it is undoubtedly best to cooperate with Kuok Shipping Group.

Currently, more than 95% of the Kuok Shipping Group's tanker fleet are double-hull tankers. As early as two years ago, Kuok Shipping Group was gradually clearing out single-hull tankers in the fleet, or

Retired or transferred or leased out, so far, the remaining single-hull oil tankers have basically no longer participated in ocean transportation. Moreover, the fleet age of Kuok Shipping Group Co., Ltd. is generally low, with an average of only two to three years.

, and there are many super tankers in the fleet. In this case, although it is a double-hull tanker, the overall transportation cost will be lower than those of medium-sized single-hull tankers.

Although, in the past few days, shipping companies from North America have contacted SK Group to express their intention to cooperate, but their freight rates are only higher than Diamond Cruises Co., Ltd., not lower than it.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Guo's Shipping Group Company is undoubtedly the best partner at present!

In fact, Cui Taiyan did not want to be so proactive. This would undoubtedly put SK Group at a disadvantage in the negotiations. However, Cui Taiyan thought that when the crude oil leak outside Surabaya Port in Indonesia became known to the world, other

From the reaction of domestic enterprises, he knew that he had no choice at this time!

Moreover, Cui Taiyan is also worried that because of the crude oil spill outside the Surabaya port in Indonesia, will several countries in Southeast Asia, like South Korea now, prepare to issue restrictions or even restrictions on the use of single-hull oil tankers under pressure from all walks of life?

As a result, the ban caused single-hull oil tankers to withdraw from the maritime industry early.

If that were the case, Guo's Shipping Group's current shipping capacity would become even more of a waste. He knew very well what would happen if there were too many people and too little food.

Therefore, we must reach an agreement with Kuok Shipping Group before other companies can react. Even if it only accounts for a few percent of SK Group's crude oil demand, this will at least show the Korean people their determination to protect the country's environment!

Of course, if possible, he would like to be able to swallow up all the current excess shipping capacity of Kuok Shipping Group Company in one go.

However, Cui Taiyan felt that Fang Mingyuan might not agree to his request.

Cui Taiyan has naturally heard about Fang Mingyuan for a long time. The Pingchuan Fang family has many cooperations with the Samsung Group. It is with the help of the Fang family that the Samsung Group can be said to be the one with the smoothest entry into the Chinese market in South Korea. Not only in China

It established the electronics industry and established a joint venture between Samsung Motors and a Chinese automobile company. It is said that Samsung Group is still negotiating with China to build a modern chemical plant in China...

Compared with Samsung Group, SK Group entered China not later than it, but so far, the results achieved are far inferior to Samsung Group - a strong partner, sometimes it is also very important

of.

Therefore, Cui Taiyan was full of expectations for this meeting. Fang Mingyuan is now also a hot topic among the upper class society in South Korea. His age! He is actually the president of three well-known companies. The important thing is that regardless of

Whether it is Kuok Shipping Group, Hong Kong Kumho Film Group and sogo0 Co., Ltd., they are not unknown in their respective industries! His status as an Oscar screenwriting award winner! As the first heir of the Hirakawa Fang family

Identity! The Pingchuan Fang family's industry in China... people have too many things to talk about.

In particular, "The Lord of the Rings", which was released not long ago, took in more than 438 million U.S. dollars at the North American box office in its first week, firmly occupying the top spot in the North American film market. When this figure reached South Korea, almost the entire

The Korean film industry is excited about it.
