Chapter 50 Hidden dangers

It can be said that the shipping market in today's world is basically in the hands of a few major shipping countries. According to statistics from relevant institutions at the end of 2004, the top five countries in terms of shipping capacity are Greece, Japan, Germany, China, Norway, and Hong Kong.

Its transport capacity ranks sixth, higher than the United States, South Korea, Singapore and the United Kingdom.

Although Huaxia ranks fourth, the number of iron ore transport ships is not only small, but also small! The largest domestic ship carrying imported iron ore is only 160,000 tons, and some still use the 70,000-ton Panama

Ship type - This is definitely not an economical ship type for the iron ore routes imported from Brazil and Australia. In the global transportation market, there are more than 720 ultra-large Capesize ships with a class of more than 130,000 tons.

Ten ships, while there are only thirty ships in China! This puts domestic shipping companies at a clear disadvantage in terms of shipping capacity.

Due to the disadvantage in transportation capacity, only 35% of the domestically imported iron ore is carried by domestic shipping companies, and another 30% is carried by Hong Kong shipping companies, mainly Kuok Shipping Group Co., Ltd., and the rest is mostly carried by Japan and South Korea.

Shipping companies have grabbed it. Since 2001, the price of sea freight has been rising continuously. This is because the growth rate of the world's total iron ore trade has been higher than the growth rate of ship transportation capacity. When ships

The shipping capacity cannot meet the growing demand for iron ore shipping volume, so sea freight will inevitably rise.

In fact, not only the shipping costs of iron ore are rising, but the shipping costs of soybeans, oil, and coal are also rising. This allows Guo's Shipping Group to have enough profits to continue to expand the size of its fleet. At the beginning,

Kuok's Shipping Group Company has transferred the construction technology of three major ship types, including supertankers, to major domestic shipyards, allowing Kuok's Shipping Group Company to start from these domestic shipyards without disturbing Japanese and Korean shipyards and shipping companies.

Acquired a large number of new ships. Now, it is time for Kuok Shipping Group Co., Ltd. to begin to reap rich fruits.

From iron ore production to transportation to smelting to sales, it can be said that the Fang family has created a complete industrial chain, making itself invincible in today's rising iron ore trend. Even Lao Wei

Wolf, faced with all this, had to say "I'm convinced".

Such an achievement, not to mention it was accomplished by a young man in his twenties, even if it was accomplished by the bosses of world-renowned steel companies, it can be called a miracle in the history of world steel industry investment!

For thousands of years, the Welf family has produced countless heroes, and has brought countless heroes under the family's command. In his life, old Welf has never been so eager to make the Welf family and the Fang family become the same.

In-laws will become staunch allies in the same camp in the future! Fang Mingyuan is still very young, and he still has at least forty or fifty years to continue to grow the Fang family and compete for a higher status and a larger share in the world economic map.

.

"Fang, I'm here to see you this time. I'm here to ask you some questions on behalf of the board of directors of Aselock Group." Although old Welf was a little agitated, he had not forgotten the business.

"The board of directors of Aselock Group Company? What is it? It seems that I am also a member of the board of directors, right?" Fang Mingyuan said thoughtfully. The Fang family, which owns 12% of the shares of Aselock Group Company, is indeed

One of the members of the board of directors, but under normal circumstances he will not come to Europe to attend the board of directors. Instead, after seeing the proposal, the members of the Welf family on the board of directors of Aselock Group will vote on their behalf.

"We don't mean to exclude you, it's just that this matter has something to do with you, so we discussed it first. We plan to listen to your opinion." Old Welf said, "You are familiar with lnm Group, right?

?" How could Fang Mingyuan be unfamiliar with the world's second largest steel group company today? In the future, it will merge with Aselock Group Company to become the world's largest steel group company. When lnm Group acquires Aselock Group Company, the steel industry will

It caused an uproar all over the world.

"Has lnm Group proposed to acquire Aselock Group?" Fang Mingyuan understood immediately and pretended to be stupid, "Has it been approved by the governments of France, Spain and Luxembourg?"

"Of course it hasn't been formally proposed yet. By the time it is formally proposed, it will be too late." Old Welf glared at Fang Mingyuan and said, "I know you don't care about Aselock Group's shares. You are more interested in technology and

Possible benefits, if lnm Group provides enough benefits, will you transfer the shares to them?"

"How is that possible? Of course I will give priority to transferring it to your Welf family." Fang Mingyuan said without hesitation - telling lies with open eyes is an essential skill for a successful social elite.

"Under the same conditions, right? Our Welf family is not as wealthy as the lnm group, and the company's board of directors does not want our Welf family to own too many shares of the company." Old Welf revealed unceremoniously.

"Of course, under the same conditions, is it possible that I still want to sell the shares of Aselock Group Company at a low price?" Fang Mingyuan said in surprise.

"What the board of directors means is that if you can promise not to sell company shares to Lnm Group and companies controlled by Lnm Group in the future, or individuals who may transfer shares to Lnm Group, the company can transfer energy-reducing energy to your steel companies.

and consumption of raw materials, reduce factory pollution emissions, and enable it to achieve technology that meets European environmental standards. However, there is an additional condition. After these technologies are transferred to you, within five years, your steel companies must not expand their operations in Europe and North America.

Export share." Old Welf said seriously.

"That won't work, it will take too long, up to three years, and I have to see these technologies before I can determine whether they are worth it. I promise not to transfer shares to companies and individuals related to the lnm group without the permission of the company's board of directors.

." Fang Mingyuan said.

"Okay, we can continue to discuss specific matters. At least you agree with the board of directors' idea, right?" Old Welf shrugged. Anyway, the entire decision was made by the board of directors of Aselock Group Company, and he was only responsible.

Send a message.

"I can understand the idea of ​​​​the board of directors, but before the final negotiation results come out, I will not say I agree." Fang Mingyuan said. Although it is impossible for him to control Aselock Group, he will not

If he wants the Indians to successfully obtain the Aselock Key Group Company, whether it is public or private, he has enough reasons to dislike the Indians.

"And the board of directors hopes to jointly build a factory in China with your Liaoning Iron and Steel Group Company!" Old Welf continued.

"A joint venture to build a factory in China?" Fang Mingyuan stopped and asked, "Why? Is it to stop the lnm group again?" China's domestic steel industry has already shown signs of overcapacity, and the government has tried its best to control new production capacity.

The construction and elimination of backward production capacity, and whether it is building joint ventures or acquiring shares of domestic steel companies, are much stricter than in previous years. In early 2005, relevant ministries and commissions promulgated the "China Steel Industry Development Policy".

It is clearly stated that foreign steel companies investing in China's steel industry must have independent intellectual property rights in steel technology, and their ordinary steel production in the previous year must reach more than 10 million tons, or special steel production must reach one million tons.

It can be considered. Moreover, it is also required that the investment must be implemented in conjunction with the transformation and relocation of existing domestic steel companies, and no new points will be introduced.

Therefore, if it is not high-end products and technologies, Fang Mingyuan has no interest in entering into any joint venture with Aselock Group Company. What he needs to do now is to take advantage of the rising iron ore prices and shipping costs to acquire domestic enterprises.

of those valuable steel companies.

"Well, there is a reason for this, and everyone hopes that Aselock Group Company can strengthen cooperation with Liao Provincial Iron and Steel Group Company." Welf coughed.

"Then if you show sincerity, I won't be able to consider it." Fang Mingyuan said bluntly, "If it's just ordinary technology, then forget it." Domestic steel production capacity is already sufficient, and although the government has repeatedly reduced steel production,

Production capacity, but effectiveness... Needless to say, he didn't want to add another one.

"Okay, then we've made an agreement!" Old Welf said, not feeling dissatisfied.

In this world, there are always people who are happy and others who are sad. Lu Guangyao Steel Group Company, which has always been known as the third largest private steel company in China, is a company with total assets of 17.5 billion yuan and net assets of over 80

It is a very large private steel enterprise with RMB 100 million and nearly 10,000 employees. Last year it produced 3.2 million tons of iron, 4.07 million tons of steel, and 4.13 million tons of steel. No one would have thought that a company in the last century would

The workshop-style steel rolling workshop established in the late 1970s with 400,000 yuan of self-raised funds was able to develop to its current scale. In 2004, the steel output of Guangyao Steel Group ranked 17th among the national steel companies.

Steel production ranks ninth.

However, behind Guangyao Steel Group's glorious honor, there are hidden dangers. In 2002, Guangyao Steel Group invested heavily in the construction of a hot-rolled plate and coil project using second-hand equipment imported from Germany's ThyssenKrupp.

According to the construction period, this project will be put into operation at the beginning of next year. By then, Guangyao Steel Group will be able to produce 10 million tons of iron, 12 million tons of steel, and 13 million tons of steel annually.

ability!

Although this scale is far less than that of Liaoning Iron and Steel Group Company, the largest private steel enterprise in China, it can ensure that Guangyao Iron and Steel Group Company will take a further step in the ranking of domestic steel companies!
