Resource Tycoon Reborn

After entering April, it is the time when soybeans from the southern hemisphere are on the market. Newly produced soybeans from Brazil and Argentina begin to enter the international market. However, compared with last year’s soybean prices, South American soybeans are born at the wrong time. The international soybean market

Compared with the peak period, prices have fallen by more than 36%! Moreover, it seems that the recovery of soybean prices obviously lacks stamina, and the trend in the second half of the year is not optimistic. This has made many people who were originally optimistic

People who are interested in the soybean market outlook are shocked.

Especially after the 2004 data from the U.S. agricultural department was released, the prospects for soybeans became even more bleak - it is expected that the soybean area in the U.S. will reach 75 million acres in 2004, which requires

This is almost 1.5 million acres more than last year’s planting area! In this case, the output of U.S. soybeans, which will be launched in September, will be a record 80 million tons! At the same time, many international institutions also predict that although the international market

The price of soybeans has been falling continuously, but compared with before 2002, the price of soybeans has increased significantly, and farmers in Brazil and Argentina are very enthusiastic about planting soybeans. Therefore, Brazil and Argentina

Argentina is likely to continue to expand the land area for planting soybeans. This will undoubtedly continue to increase the soybean production in South America. The harvest of South American soybeans has already begun and the total production has exceeded 100 million tons, which is close to half of the global soybean production!

Moreover, some international organizations have pointed out that global oilseed production in 2004 is likely to reach a record high of 380 million tons, an increase of nearly 40 million tons from last year, and this is also likely to reach a record high of 380 million tons.

It affects the sales of soybeans. After all, oil seeds can also be used to extract edible oil.

In short, in a nutshell, the international community generally believes that the price of soybeans in the international market will not return to the peak price in the second half of 2004! As a result, some people will naturally cry.

laugh.

Viktor Artorov walked into his office in the Supreme Parliament Building of Ukraine under the envious eyes of many people. Today, his power has grown to a higher level than before.

"Your Excellency, Congressman, you have five meetings to attend today, among which the Parliamentary Agenda and Activity Guarantee and Parliamentarian Ethics Committee, the Finance and Banking Working Committee are in the morning, the Taxation and Tariff Policy Committee and the Foreign Affairs Committee will be held in the afternoon. Also

At 4:30 in the afternoon, the State Assets Fund will vote on the auction plan for the Klisvorog State Steel Plant in May. Representative Yarmolenko called and asked me to remind you that it is necessary to

Come on time." The secretary reminded him softly.

Altorov casually patted the secretary's round buttocks, feeling the elasticity full of youthful vitality, and then said: "I understand, tell Senator Yarmolenko that I will definitely attend." Chris

The auction of the Vorog State Steel Plant went through several twists and turns. After it was finally determined that the acquirer for privatization could only be a domestic enterprise in Ukraine, it was approved by the State Assets Fund. However, Artorov was not discouraged. Because

He knew that Fang Mingyuan was still paying attention to the Klisvorog National Steel Plant. Therefore, he also had to have first-hand information at all times to avoid Fang Mingyuan mentioning it at that time. But he couldn't tell clearly. That was given to Yaer

An opportunity for Molenko to get closer to Fang Mingyuan!

Although Yarmolenko is his ally in the political arena, it is as common for politicians to change their stance as to eat and drink. An unchanging ally is definitely as rare as a feather. After he introduced Yarmolenko to

After Fang Mingyuan, Yarmolenko's enthusiasm for Fang Mingyuan exceeded his expectations. This was of course due to the good relationship between Fan Mingyuan and Russia's largest oil company, Yukosky Oil Company, which was very important to Yarmolenko.

The Molenko family's business has a very important influence. On the other hand, he also realizes the importance of having such a strong foreign support for his political career! He, Altorov, was just a regional leader back then.

An ordinary member of the party, not only because he embraced the Fang family and promoted the cooperation between the two parties, but also gained the recognition and support of party insiders and the public, and became a star member of the Supreme Parliament of Ukraine in a few years.

The Yarmolenko family is still quite strong. If they can get help from Fang Mingyuan, who has a background in both Russia and China, Edward Yarmolenko's future achievements should not be inferior to his own. This

Yarmolenko understands the truth, and Altorov understands it even more. Therefore, there is both cooperation and competition between the two parties!

The secretary gave a coquettish cry, which made Altorov's heart tremble and his lower abdomen couldn't help but heat up.

"Ah, there is one more thing!" the secretary whispered, "Your Excellency, Mr. Alexander Peter Milevsky and Mr. Rivli Rad Seleznov have both called, hoping that you will

If you can spare some time from your busy schedule, they all say they have important things to discuss with you."

"Milevsky and Seleznov?" Altorov's face darkened, and after a moment he said, "Well, look at the past few days, whenever I have time, I only give them half an hour.

Time!" The two major families still have considerable influence in the central and western regions of Ukraine. If Artorov and the Party of Regions want to gain greater power in the Supreme Parliament of Ukraine, then the votes of the central and western regions will

You have to pay attention to it.

The secretary turned over the record in his hand and said: "Sir, if it is only half an hour, then you should be able to do it after attending the meeting of the State-owned Assets Foundation today."

"Well, then you can make arrangements." Altorov waved his hand.

"Yes!" The secretary responded with a hint of joy in her eyes and withdrew.

Altorov looked at her graceful back, but his face was a little gloomy. He had an intuition that his secretary might get some benefits from it. If it was just an insignificant thing, he didn't mind if the people around him benefited from it.

Take some benefits, but...this doesn't mean that he can allow things like this to happen.

At this time, in a villa in the city of Kiev, Alexander Peter Milevsky and Rivli Rad Seleznov were waiting anxiously.

Due to the skyrocketing price of soybeans in the international market in 2003, the two families that successfully got back the contract have invested huge human and financial resources in expanding the soybean planting area. This year, the total soybean planting area in Ukraine is estimated to be more than

It will be 30% to 35% higher in 2003. If everything goes well this year, Ukraine's soybean output will hit the highest level since the disintegration of the former Soviet Union!

The price of soybeans on the international market did not disappoint them at first, but what made them unhappy for a long time was that after reaching a historic high of 390 US dollars per ton, the price of soybeans on the international market went from bad to worse.

, it has now fallen 36% from its peak, and it continues to decline.

Although the current international market price of soybeans is still at a safe distance compared with the cost of planting soybeans in Ukraine, it has fallen to the level at which they and Fang Mingyuan reached the soybean purchase contract that year. This makes them feel extremely painful and means that

It is completely wrong for them to terminate this purchase contract with Fang Mingyuan.

And this has also brought huge trouble. If the international market price of soybeans continues to fall in the second half of the year, it means that they will suffer more losses, not only the price they paid to terminate the contract, but also the price they paid to terminate the contract.

There is also the cost issue of how to sell all these soybeans.

When Fang Mingyuan purchased, almost 95% of the soybeans exported from Ukraine were purchased by him. They only needed to plant and harvest the soybeans and purchase them from farmers, and they did not need to worry about the rest.

When soybean prices remain high, it is not difficult to find buyers. In fact, many international buyers have contacted them.

But in the international market, after the price of soybeans plummeted, the international buyers who were originally active in them left Ukraine without hesitation. Now, the two major families have to consider how to sell these soybeans in the future.

——Ukraine’s soybean production, before Fang Mingyuan signed a contract with them to purchase it, was not exported in large quantities and the scale was quite small. After Fang Mingyuan signed a contract with them, the soybean production surged, and most of them were purchased by Fang Mingyuan, and

Considering that the contract period is as long as five years, they are not in a hurry to develop sales.

They thought very well when they terminated the contract. The profit margin of soybeans is so high. At worst, if the price is slightly lowered, they will not be able to find buyers. But now, they have discovered that in order to reopen sales channels, they must increase production compared with the previous year.

It is not easy to find a good home for millions of tons of Ukrainian soybeans. During the former Soviet Union, Ukraine’s traditional soybean market in Central and Eastern Europe had already been occupied by American and South American soybeans. It wanted to trade with those international

Seizing the market is an arduous task for the two families. After several efforts, the two families sadly discovered that unless the soybeans they exported had a clear price advantage, they would not be able to open the market at all.

!

As for China and Russia, the demand for soybeans is very huge. That is where the power of the Fang family lies. If they want to enter these two major markets, they cannot get the understanding of the Fang family... How is it possible! (To be continued...)
