Chapter 1526 Thor?

Yang Cheng pulled Conrad back, and asked rather scrupulously, "If I join your core meeting now, will it cause dissatisfaction among the old members?"

He wasn't afraid of offending anyone, he just didn't want to get into unnecessary trouble.

Conrad shook his head slightly, "No, my uncle has informed everyone that we will introduce new members tonight, and everyone's purpose is to make money, not to fight for power. Those who can get together are people who yearn for freedom. Do you think you like freedom? Would you be willing to bind yourself in the big dye vat of ZZ?"

Yang Cheng approved of Conrad's rhetoric, and followed him to Koch's private meeting room. When they entered, the Koch brothers hadn't arrived yet. Except for him and Conrad, there were three old gods sitting there. There it was, and he discovered that Santander was among them.

From the looks of it, the old man's background is still very deep.

The other two Yang Cheng didn't know each other, so they nodded as greetings.

The meeting room is very quiet, everyone is playing with their phones with their heads down, or is it dealing with business?

When Santander saw Yang Cheng coming in, he also showed a slightly surprised expression, and then acted very naturally, beckoning to Yang Cheng, "Jason, sit here."

Yang Cheng sat down amidst the inexplicable expressions of the other people, and called out respectfully, "Mr. Santander~"

"Bonny, call me Bonny, it seems that Charles and David think highly of you." Santander didn't look too intimate, but shook hands with Yang Cheng lightly.

Although Yang Cheng's acting skills can't be called natural now, they are enough to deal with laymen. At least no one else can see that he and Santander are acting.

"It's my honor. In fact, I have a good relationship with Conrad. Maybe there is a reason for this?"

Needle drop could be heard in the room, and no matter what Yang Cheng and Santander said, others could hear them, so Yang Cheng chose his words carefully.

"Hehe, everyone, let me introduce you first~"

Before he could speak, a strong man with loose hair like Thor laughed and said, "Old Pony, do you still need your introduction? Who doesn't know Jason Yang who has been in the limelight recently?"

Yang Cheng smiled politely, "I'm very low-key~"

One sentence amused several people, and Thor smiled happily, "This is the best joke I've heard this year, you are a genius for humor."

Yang Cheng was very innocent, and spread his hands, "I'm really low-key, when do you think I ran under the flash?"

Thor smiled and shook his head, "That's right, you're on the news, and it's basically related to other people. By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Rector Sanchez, and my friends call me Saul."

Sol? Really Thor?

Yang Cheng felt that it was not good to laugh directly, so she said tactfully, "Because you look like Thor?"

Saul was 'surprised', "How do you know?"

Yang Cheng had no choice but to slander in her heart, "I also know you're a joker!"

"It's nice to meet a hero who saves the world. By the way, do you have a hammer? I'm curious if I can lift Thor's hammer."

Thor raised his arms and puffed out his thick biceps, "First of all, you have to have such muscles to be qualified to lift Thor's Hammer."

Yang Cheng found out that this guy was not only funny, but also a fucking childish ghost.

Looks like this guy is 50 years old? How do you play house like a child?

Santander couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "Don't pay attention to this guy, his family used to hold shares in Marvel."

Yang Cheng laughed, no wonder, it seemed that Thor had a great influence on his childhood.

Conrad also said, "That's right, if you have a chance, you can go to his house to have a look. It's almost a Marvel world. By the way, his family has shares in U.S. Steel and Alcoa."

Yang Cheng was dumbfounded, this buddy really has an indescribable connection with Thor.

But U.S. Steel, like Alcoa, is in decline, and a down-and-out phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken!

Still the same sentence, how glorious it was once, how lonely it is now, there are reasons for the times, and there are also factors for U.S. Steel itself.

However, Sol's appearance here today is somewhat intriguing.

You must know that when Donald was running for election, the slogan he shouted was to impose high taxes on imported steel and aluminum products. As soon as this slogan was shouted, it immediately aroused strong opposition from home and abroad, but for American metal products To industry, unions, and politicians in the Rust Belt, this is the fruitless woman waiting to be pampered.

Donald has always wanted to revive the steel industry in the United States because it would help him start a trade war. In his view, steel and many other traditional industries have suffered huge policy injustices in the past few decades.

It has to be said that from the perspective of the United States, his views on this matter are correct, but the root of the problem can even be traced back to the time when Donald was in elementary school. At that time, a disastrous disaster in the American steel industry The decision directly led to the loneliness in the next few decades, and even today.

At the end of World War II, U.S. Steel was the only company in the world, and there was no one who could truly be called a challenger.

At that time, U.S. Steel produced nearly three-quarters of the world's steel products. Its biggest competitors were RB and Germany, but their factories were in ruins due to the war.

If nothing else, giants like U.S. Steel look set to dominate the world for the foreseeable future.

Yet the opposite is true, Europe's steel industry has risen, and so-called unfair trade practices among the American population have not been a factor at all.

In Europe at that time, perhaps because many factories were destroyed in the war, they had to find another way to find a way out. After all, the steel industry is the foundation of a country's development!

So they began experimenting with the idea of ​​turning iron into steel by spraying pure oxygen onto molten metal.

This method is called the "alkaline oxygen blowing method". It was first tried in a small steel factory in Linz, Austria in 1948, but soon because of the successful experiment, the small steel factory grew into a giant!

In the years that followed, Linz became an industrial mecca as steelmakers from all over the world came to see the new process in person.

Most importantly, the cost of building a steel plant using a basic oxygen furnace is 40% to 50% lower than that of a traditional open hearth furnace plant, and the operating cost is also reduced by 25%. good idea.

As a result, the global steel industry has carried out reforms accordingly. Unfortunately, the big steel companies in the United States are too proud to pay attention to the development of Europe.

One step behind, step by step behind, since then, U.S. Steel has been on the road to failure!
