Chapter 1057 Cooperation with Waite (Please Subscribe!)

Waite sat in the car.

Look out the window quietly.

Come this time.

He took a lot of risk, but he came anyway, because this may be an important milestone in his political career - the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is about to have a heavy industry chain.

There used to be only extractive industries here.

Now.

More smelting.

There will even be processing later.

The formation of a complete heavy industry chain of iron and steel will bring benefits to a country's economy. Looking at the history of various countries can get the answer, and the benefits are numerous.

First of all, it is driven by a sharp increase in GDP.

Second, solve a large number of employment.

Third, save foreign exchange for imported steel.

Fourth, derivative related manufacturing.

. . .

Think of this.

Waite also had a little excitement in his heart.

Not only that.

Last month, there were also two industrial projects that were the most historic in the history of the Democratic Republic of Congo, an oil refinery and a chemical plant, which made Waite unable to sleep with excitement for several days.

but.

Think of the situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Waite sighed.

In stark contrast to the prosperity here, other places are still stagnant, with poor security, unstable situation, serious fiscal deficit, and difficult reforms.

It's something he can't escape.

On stage for more than half a year.

The level of complexity in the DRC is growing.

He wants to develop the economy, get rid of the hat of a pure raw material supplier, and learn the development ideas of other countries. He can't always sell mines, because there will always be a day when the money from selling mines will be spent.

and this.

Foreign capital is needed.

Technology is required.

Can people be stupid?

So many countries in the world do not invest, so invest in them? They have nothing but mines. There is a lot of population, but the quality of the population makes their competitiveness almost zero.

This is almost a common problem faced by African countries.

gradually.

Most of the income from selling mines was spent by everyone.

effect.

Ha ha.

All of these things were invested in infrastructure construction and renovation, and did not create more value. Most of them were swallowed up by various interest groups, similar to the predecessor Moyi.

Waite was also caught in a political quagmire.

Also at this time.

Wanqing Iron and Steel entered his field of vision.

When reporting to subordinates.

He just remembered.

This is Huaxia Capital, which won the bid for many mines last year. As more and more information gathered in Waite's hands, when he learned that its owner was Tang Qing, Waite was very excited.

This is a man who has done miracles.

He hopes to bring miracles to the Democratic Republic of Congo.

And the miracle he was looking forward to happened soon. In his opinion, it was because of Tang Qing's demonstration effect that two heavyweight capitals from China entered, which made him suddenly a little grateful to his predecessor Moy.

No Moy.

It is estimated that Tang Qing will not be able to win the iron ore over there.

then.

Under the joint invitation of three or two companies.

He came here.

Not only take a look at the steel plants that have been put into operation, but also participate in the groundbreaking ceremony to express their friendship, because this is related to many of their next policies and guidelines.

ten o'clock in the morning.

Waite came to the steel mill.

at this time.

The security here has been fully alerted.

Looking at the military Humvees and the mighty security guards on the roadside, although he was holding a gun, Waite was relieved.

With the security situation here.

Plus the importance of steel mills.

Waite also wished that there were more of them. Anyway, no matter how many these security guards were, they would not threaten him. With Huaxia's behavior, it was impossible to allow Tang Qing and the others to interfere in other countries' internal affairs.

He wanted to send soldiers to protect.

But next to this place is Sadok. If he dares to send someone here, Sadok may let the soldiers live at the door of the mining area. This is a situation that Waite is even more reluctant to see.

Waite's arrival.

Naturally received a warm welcome.

banner.

Red carpet.

play music.

In terms of face, the steel plant has done a lot.

The person who received him was Guan Songhua, the general manager of the steel plant and mining area. As for the managers of the other two companies, they were all standing behind. Although their own bosses were powerful, Guan Songhua was the leader here.

Twenty percent equity.

Guan Songhua is also temporarily driving here.

"Hello, Mr. President, I'm Guan Songhua, the manager here." Guan Songhua smiled.

Waite shook his hand cordially, "Hello, thank you for your support for the construction of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. If you have the opportunity, be sure to convey my gratitude to you, Chairman Tang."

"Thank you, I will definitely." Guan Songhua said hurriedly.

to their own boss.

Guan Songhua was completely convinced.

Just walk sideways wherever you go.

After that, Guan Songhua introduced the heads of the other two companies, but Waite didn't remember them at all. Before coming, Guan Songhua was the one who read the most information.

Next.

Under the leadership of Guan Songhua.

Waite visited the various factories of the steel plant. Although he could not understand the data explained by Guan Songhua, he only needed to know the output here. As for the process and implementation method, he did not care.

Waite kept nodding.

The first phase has an annual output of 2.6 million tons.

Hearing Waite's body trembling, he was excited. Although this was not as good as 1% of Huaxia's annual output of more than 400 million tons last year, it could still be ranked in the world.

Although very backward.

But also much better than those countries with no smelting industry at all.

Waite calculated how much foreign exchange consumption this could reduce, and he was overjoyed to do so.

If all steel plants are built.

They will reduce the foreign exchange outflow of at least 800 million US dollars every year. The most important thing is that the other processing industries derived from steel smelting are what Waite really cares about.

"it is good."

"it is good."

"..."

Along the way, he can't remember how many good things he said.

After visiting the steel factory.

It is already noon.

They invited Waite to eat authentic Chinese dishes, which Wete was full of praise. During this period, after friendly negotiation, they reached several cooperations, which were submitted to Waite before.

First, funded by the DRC government, the road from the steel plant to the DRC capital will be renovated and expanded to facilitate the transportation of steel and ore in the future.

Second, under the same quality, the government-funded projects in the Democratic Republic of the Congo give priority to purchasing products from steel mills.

Third, encourage civil construction projects to purchase steel mill products.

Fourth, the Kivu Industrial Zone was established, with 200 square kilometers surrounding the entire mining area. Wanqing Mining was responsible for management, planning and investment promotion, but it did not hold any administrative positions in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This is an economic industrial park.

Fifth, steel mills are exempt from tax for five years.

each one.

Waite agreed after careful consideration.

Since do.

Don't be petty.

This is a reform pilot. If it succeeds, the DRC will earn it, but if it fails, the DRC will also earn it, so why not do it.

. . .

afternoon.

After the groundbreaking ceremony.

Waite didn't stop.

Leave immediately.

He didn't dare to spend the night here, and went directly to the provincial capital of Nanji Province. This is too close to Sadok, although Sadok wouldn't have done anything to him if he wasn't crazy.

But have to guard.

Four chapters today, the first chapter.
