Resource Tycoon Reborn

Angelina's eyes widened immediately. Fang Mingyuan owned 12% of the Aselock Group Company. This was originally obtained by him in exchange for the shares of Japan's Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Group and HSBC Holdings Co., Ltd., but this

Twelve percent of the shares have always been managed by old Welf. Fang Mingyuan will not interfere with the normal operations of the Aselock Group unless the dividends are lower than his psychological expectations. And this 12%

The shares are very important to the Welf family. It can ensure the Welf family's voice and influence in the Aselock Group of Companies and suppress directors who disagree with them.

And without these 12%, it will not be so easy for the Welf family to take the lead in the Aselock Group. In recent times, the Aselock Group has been under pressure due to international competition.

The sales of steel products in the market are booming, and the performance is still very good. In particular, it successfully cooperated with Liao Iron and Steel Group Company, jointly invested in Guangyao Iron and Steel Group Company, and successfully entered the Chinese steel market, which made its stock

It has performed well in the European stock market. As an important shareholder of the Aselock Group, the Welf family has still made considerable profits from it, especially since they also own 12% of Fang Mingyuan's equity.

Agency rights, although this does not allow them to get the dividends that Fang Mingyuan deserves, it does give them opportunities to make money in other ways.

"You are so boring!" Angelina said coquettishly, "I don't know why Xintong and Jiayi fell in love with you?"

"I remember back then..." Fang Mingyuan noticed Angelina's dissatisfied eyes and opened his mouth silently. In the end, he didn't say anything. Well, he just thought that women, especially young and beautiful women, were cheating.

Right. He should not use the original incident to provoke this person again. However, Fang Mingyuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It seems that what he just said was not entirely the opinion of the Welf family. It was Anjie's.

Lina didn't know how many of her own things were added to it to scare herself. Before the subprime mortgage crisis came, the Welf family lost their friends in Europe, and even turned against each other. For Fang Mingyuan, it was natural

Don't want to see it.

"You can think about this matter slowly, as long as you think about it clearly before going to Europe. Grandpa asked me to tell you, don't worry about being passively involved in the competition between the Welf family and other families.

And at this current period, the Fang family does not have enough strength to interfere in European affairs, so you can rest assured." Angelina said quietly. "I just hope that during the meeting, we will face what they have to say.

When a certain request is made, you can say 'no' with the same firm attitude as before."

Fang Mingyuan was stunned for a moment and looked at Angelina with enlightenment and said, "It's not that marriage request again, is it?" Angelina smiled sweetly and was noncommittal.

Fang Mingyuan shook his head speechlessly and said: "Your family is really...out-and-out German! You will never give up until you reach your goal. Hey, you can always tell me who are your competing families in Europe, right?

Just spread the knowledge to me."

Angelina pondered for a moment, and then said: "You have an old saying in China, which is that the world's general trend will inevitably unite if it divides for a long time. If it unites for a long time, it will divide. I think this is the best portrayal of the European continent. You don't need me to tell you the history of Europe again, right?

From the Roman Empire in the past to the subsequent establishment of various countries, and now the establishment of the European Union. Although the forms have been different, fundamentally speaking, Europe is moving towards speaking with one voice."

Fang Mingyuan nodded. Europe actually had no choice. After World War II, the European countries were scattered and beaten to pieces. Even though the United Kingdom and France were permanent members of the United Nations, they were under strong pressure from the United States and the former Soviet Union.

Next. There is no independent voice at all. If one's own legal rights and interests cannot be guaranteed, what is the meaning of a nominal independence? Therefore, during this period, European countries have been trying to unite. This is also

This led to the emergence of multiple European communities. This is also why after the end of the Cold War, the former Soviet Union split into multiple countries and the Americans were the dominant force, the European countries still decided to establish the EU and continued to absorb them in a short period of time.

The important reason for new member states, even if these member states will drag down the original members of the EU, is to have enough voice and influence in the international community. However, the EU is so eager to absorb new member states and implement the euro

, although in a short period of time the EU's economic strength and influence have expanded dramatically and it has become the world's largest economy, it has also laid hidden dangers for the future.

Fang Mingyuan remembered that shortly after the US subprime mortgage crisis in 2008, the European debt crisis broke out one after another. Iceland, with a GDP of less than 20 billion US dollars, had debts of nearly 140 billion US dollars, becoming the first country to go bankrupt!

For Europe, Iceland was just the first country to be in trouble. Then, more and more European countries fell into debt crisis, including even important countries like Italy and Spain.

"Although everyone wants Europe to have only one voice to the outside world, there is no consensus on who should make this voice. We Germans, French, British, Italians, and Spanish all want to fight for this right. The country is in

Fighting, these families behind the scenes are also fighting for economic dominance. This topic is quite long to talk about, are you sure you want to hear it?" Angelina said with a genuine smile.

"Then you can briefly and concisely tell us who the competitors of your Welf family are." Fang Mingyuan replied immediately. He completely imagined the intricate relationships between these families. From the perspective of Chinese people, the European aristocratic genealogy is

It's simply a mess. These nobles can basically be said to be relatives. This can be seen from the chaos in the succession of monarchs in various European countries.

"The Don Moragas family in Spain and the De Rocheix family in France are currently the biggest competitors of our Welf family. If you are interested in them, I can give you a copy of them.

Detailed information." Angelina held her chin with both hands and chuckled, "Fang, if you want to enter the upper class of Europe, then a lot of knowledge about European aristocrats is essential. Otherwise, in many cases,

In the eyes of others, no matter how many achievements you have made, you are still a country bumpkin." (To be continued...)
