Chapter 1405 Reciprocity (Part 2)
Guo Tailai also has a special New Year gift? Pu Dadi was surprised, but also looking forward to it. He thought that the two guns were given by Abu and Guo Tailai, but he didn't expect that Guo Tailai didn't take the credit.
"So, G, what's your New Year's gift?" Emperor Pu asked curiously.
"A mine." Guo Tailai looked at Pu Dadi's expectant eyes, and said his gift.
In order not to get the beauty sent by Emperor Pu Dadi, Guo Tailai decided to go all out. Fortunately, I remember that Russia will discover an important mineral deposit in a few years, and I will give it to Emperor Putin as a gift. I believe he will be very happy.
"Mine?" Pu Dadi was even more surprised. The gift Guo Tailai gave him was actually a mine?
"To be precise, it's information about a mine lode." Guo Tailai corrected his statement, there is no shadow of that mine yet, so what to give to Emperor Pu? It can only be data.
"What mine?" Pu Dadi did not pay attention to what a foreigner like Guo Tailai said. On the contrary, a person of Guo Tailai's status would definitely not speak easily, and speaking would not be a trivial matter.
"Metal rhenium ore." Guo Tailai replied with a smile: "You can consult an expert about the strategic role of these metals."
Pu Dadi is definitely not proficient in technology, and he may not know a certain kind of metal all at once. Guo Tailai asked him to consult, Pu Dadi dialed a number without hesitation on the spot, and asked the person on the other side of the phone for a while.
Rhenium and its alloys are widely used in aerospace, electronics, petrochemical and other fields. Superalloys are the largest consumption field of rhenium, accounting for about 80% of the total consumption of rhenium, and catalysts are the second largest consumption field of rhenium. What people generally know the most is that it will be used in aero engines, which is very important. As Guo Tailai said, this is a strategic resource.
Putting down the phone, when Emperor Pu looked at Guo Tailai again, his gaze was different again. The global resources of rhenium metal are not very rich, and suddenly there is an extra rhenium mine, which is definitely a strong benefit to Russia. However, knowing that this is very important, Emperor Pu was not so eager, and looked at Guo Tailai for a long time without saying a word.
Guo Tailai also sat quietly, smiling and looking at Emperor Pu Dadi without breaking the etiquette.
"In Russia?" Pu Dadi looked at it for a long time before he asked Guo Tailai.
"Yes!" Guo Tailai nodded with a smile, there is no need to deny it. Which country would be willing to hand over this kind of strategic resource mine to foreigners? Unless it is a small country with no real industrial capacity, but in this case, where it is Russia's turn, the Americans and Europeans will definitely rush to the forefront. Only in Russia can it be the safest and least worry about accidental mining.
"Use the mines in our country as a gift for me?" Pu Dadi looked with a half-smile in his eyes, as if he was asking.
"At least people in your country haven't found out yet." Guo Tailai replied calmly, not worried.
"Then how did you find out?" Pu Dadi didn't rush to ask where the mine was, but just asked Guo Tailai.
This question is not easy to answer. Once Emperor Pu thinks that he is secretly looking for mineral deposits in the Russian territory, I am afraid that there will be no good fruit for Guo Tailai. Although Pu Dadi is very kind every time he faces Guo Tailai, he is definitely a qualified political figure. When some actions cross his bottom line, Pu Dadi is not afraid to turn his face.
"Hmm..." Guo Tailai was not worried. He already had a plan to deal with it just now: "You know, besides the people around me, I also secretly have a group of people who help me with some security and intelligence matters, as well as Help me get rid of some people who are not friendly to me."
"Hmm!" Emperor Pu nodded slightly. It is certain that Guo Tailai has a group of people on hand, and there are a lot of people around him every time he travels. The characteristics of these people are very obvious, and it looks like they came out of the army.
There are one group on the surface, and one group behind the scenes. This is normal. It would be strange if there is no one. Whoever thinks that Guo Tailai is a kind person who can be bullied casually is the biggest fool.
"My men were chasing and killing an...unfriendly guy." Guo Tailai spread his hands: "You know, sometimes some guys have some national characteristics."
This is not surprising at all. Emperor Pu knew that at least a dozen countries could not wait to either kill Guo Tailai or kidnap him to their own country before a certain period of time. Even Pu Dadi himself had been tempted, let alone others.
"On that guy, my people found some information about rhenium mines." Guo Tailai looked into Emperor Pu's eyes and expressed his innocence: "It's in Russia."
"So you actually didn't intend to take it out at this time, right?" Pu Dadi said to Guo Tailai as if he had seen everything about Guo Tailai.
"Honestly speaking, yes!" Guo Tailai did not deny it: "Actually, I just got the information not long ago. I originally planned to take a look at the situation and see when it would be most beneficial to take it out."
When dealing with people like Pu Dadi, tell the truth when it's time to tell the truth. For example, now, when Guo Tailai told Emperor Pu that he wanted the greatest benefit, Emperor Pu was not angry, but felt that this was a normal idea, which was in line with human nature.
"So, what do you want?" Emperor Pu asked leisurely. Anyway, since Guo Tailai has already said that it will be a New Year's gift, he will definitely say,
"One-fifth of the output of this mine." Guo Tailai said his request without hesitation: "I can buy it at the market price."
Emperor Pu looked at Guo Tailai, and remained silent for a while, before he said, "One tenth!"
"Deal!" He immediately agreed without thinking about it.
In 2006, Russia announced that experts from the Russian National Research Institute for Nonferrous Metals discovered a rich reserve of pure rhenium on Iturup Island (known as Iturup Island in Japan) in the South Kuril Islands. This is the first discovery in the world so far. Pure rhenium ore.
Guo Tailai can buy one-tenth of the output from here with just one message, which is really profitable! It should be known that the reserves of rhenium resources in my country are only 237 tons, and the current annual output is two tons. It will not be until after 2016 that four to five tons will be imported every year. And even if Guo Tailai doesn't say anything, Russia will find out by itself after three years that this business has made a lot of money.
"So, where is the mine?" Pu Dadi finally asked the most critical question.
After Guo Tailai told the address of the pure rhenium mine, Pu Dadi's eyes suddenly lit up: "So, you got the information from the Japanese?"
The mine was originally located on the four northern islands where Russia and Japan had territorial disputes, so Guo Tailai nodded naturally. Anyway, they have been arguing about it. One more pure rhenium ore may cause even more controversy. However, what does this have to do with Guo Tailai? One-tenth of the yield is what counts.
