Chapter 214 Wealth and Discourse Power

After drinking, the conversation will naturally increase.

Tong Yushan drank a few cups with Fan Wubing, and then remembered something, so he asked curiously, "There is a saying that I have never had the nerve to ask you, how big is your business? Just in Shanghai My son's entertainment company should be worth tens of thousands, right?"

Fan Wubing nodded and said, "The New Silk Road Entertainment Company has invested a total of 20 million US dollars. Others have some small and large industries in various places, and there are some stocks and bonds in the United States and Japan. Yes, it should be considered a little money."

"More than 20 million US dollars, just from the New Silk Road Entertainment Company—" Tong Yushan was a little shocked when he heard this before he had drunk too much. 20 million US dollars is almost 200 million RMB Well, this is only a part of the investment. According to Fan Wubing's tone, there are many big businesses besides this.

I don't know how Fan Heng's son was raised, and why he can make money so much? Tong Yushan still couldn't figure this out, so he continued to drink with Fan Wubing.

After Tong Xiaoyun finished eating, she went with Aunt Ding to help the babysitter clean up the dishes.

"Why did you ask Wu Yi to cook again today? It's not good to let others do this kind of thing." Auntie Ding complained a little.

"What can I do?" Tong Xiaoyun snorted, "He cooks well, can you stop him?"

"There should be a distinction between subject and guest. He is not our son-in-law." As soon as Aunt Ding said this, she felt a little regretful. It is a pity that her daughter is slightly older than Fan Wubing. Not very big, but enough to create an insurmountable gap between two people.

Tong Xiaoyun went to get dish soap to soak the bowls and chopsticks. After hearing Aunt Ding's words, she suddenly felt a little irritable, so she moved a little harder, making the bowls and chopsticks rattle.

"Take it easy, look like you. After washing the dishes, these dishes are unusable." Auntie Ding looked at the set of tableware she had spent a lot of money to order from Jingdezhen with some heartache, and her daughter had tormented her There are only a few left.

"If you can't use it, just replace it with a new one. It's not that our family has no money." Tong Xiaoyun said forcefully.

Huh. Is the daughter's condition a bit wrong today? Aunt Ding suddenly discovered this problem. So he looked at Tong Xiaoyun suspiciously. I hope to find some clues from his face. But it's a pity. After Tong Xiaoyun vented a bit. Calm was restored. Aunt Ding never figured out the reason for her daughter's gaffe. It was because of Fan Wubing.

Tong Yushan and Fan Wubing were drinking vigorously. He suddenly thought of a question.

So he asked Fan Wubing. "It's very strange recently. A vice president of Baosteel mentioned it when chatting with me yesterday. The price of international iron ore has suddenly risen without warning. And the magnitude is not small. You are speculating on US stocks. Do you have any idea about this? learn?"

Has the price of international iron ore land increased? Fan Wubing was taken aback. Patted his forehead. then asked. "Did the price of Australian iron ore increase? It caused the global iron ore price increase?"

"That's right! It was the price increase of Australian iron ore. It caused the global iron ore price to skyrocket. There is no sign of this. Baosteel suffered a lot of losses because of it." Tong Yushan asked curiously . "It seems that you really have a lot of research on this matter. As soon as I mention the price increase of iron ore, you will know where the problem is."

Fan Wubing thought. Of course I know that the price of Australian iron ore has increased. Nobody knows what's going on here better than I do.

Previously, Fan Wubing gave death orders to his subordinates in the United States to collect stocks of Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton from the market or private channels through various channels. The tens of billions of dollars of big moves, no matter how secretive they are, It can't escape the sharp-smelling investors and conspirators, the price increase of iron ore. Of course it is a very obvious market reaction.

It seems that this acquisition plan of my own will not be smooth sailing, but Fan Wubing has already realized this, and the Brits will not watch the bargaining chips in their hands be taken away easily, and the Australians will not I am willing to see my way of making money change owners again. All of these will cause great obstacles to my acquisition plan, which is predictable.

Fortunately, my goal is only to collect about 20% of the shares, and I don't have to become the controlling shareholder all at once. Therefore, it is not necessary to blindly fight for equity.

Selling high and buying low is a common method. Fan Wubing is not worried about the time being too long, he has enough time to deal with others. You can wait for the right opportunity, jump out and bite the opponent's fat hard, and accumulate over time, without worrying about failing to achieve your goal.

Fan Wubing said to Tong Yushan, "The international price of iron ore has never been fixed, and it is normal for there to be some fluctuations now."

In fact, the two largest buyers of international iron ore are China and Japan. The top three iron ore companies in the world, apart from Australia’s Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton, are Brazil’s Vale Yes, the main customers of the three companies are steel companies in Japan and China.

However, the operation methods of Chinese companies and Japanese companies in purchasing iron ore are somewhat different. Chinese companies generally fight on their own and negotiate prices with sellers separately. In this case, the purchase prices of each company are somewhat different. According to Depending on the demand and payment method, as well as the different negotiation methods, this difference may be very large.

Domestic companies such as Baosteel have the right to directly negotiate with foreign companies. At most half of the business they negotiate is land for their own use, and the rest is resold to other domestic companies at a markup price. , alone, can bring a lot of benefits to the company.

As for the Japanese companies, they are much smarter. They have established the Iron and Steel Industry Association long ago, and united to conduct relevant negotiations with various iron ore companies. After agreeing on the price, each domestic steel company will place orders according to their own needs, so Their demand may not be great, but the price is very favorable. It is not at all like a Chinese company fighting for business.

If it wasn't for this reason, Fan Wubing wouldn't have put in such a lot of effort to do it for him, and wanted to gain the power to speak about international iron ore pricing.

In fact, in this era, the international price of iron ore is still fair, because the domestic demand is not very large, but if you wait more than ten years, the situation will be completely different. The iron ore of many domestic steel companies They all rely on imports, especially iron ore imports from Australia. Although the Iron and Steel Association was established later, the interior is still a mess. When good things happen, everyone swarms up, and when bad things happen, everyone hides. , difficult to accomplish.

Therefore, domestic iron and steel companies have always been the targets of oppression by several iron ore giants.

This fluctuation in the international iron ore price is probably a signal released by Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton that they are alert to their acquisition plan.

Tong Yushan didn't feel that Fan Wubing was a young man who had just entered university. He felt that Fan Wubing's maturity should have surpassed that of many middle-aged people, and he even had the wisdom of an old man in him. Can cause great confusion, especially after drinking a lot.

"What do you think are the underlying factors behind the price increase of iron ore?" Tong Yushan asked.

Fan Wubing smiled and said, "It's very simple! The main reason is that the domestic reform and opening up has been accelerated! The large-scale launch of various infrastructure projects has caused the price of raw materials to continue to rise. Iron ore, which is the foundation of the steel industry , Naturally, the tide will rise and the boat will rise. The foreigners took this opportunity and took the opportunity to get stuck in the neck of the Chinese."

As a result, while talking and drinking like this, the two of them drank too much again. Although Fan Wubing had absorbed the experience from last time, his steps were a little sloppy. went.

Fan Wubing took out his mobile phone and wanted to call the people in the company and ask them to drive to pick up his phone, but Aunt Ding stopped Fan Wubing, saying that he should stay here, anyway, it’s okay to squeeze No problem.

Tong Xiaoyun resignedly gave up her boudoir, and squeezed together with the babysitter

This time, Fan Wubing fell asleep peacefully, sniffing the faint fragrance on Tong Xiaoyun's bed, his mind was a little ethereal.

The last time it was on this bed - Fan Wubing put his arms behind his head and gradually fell asleep.

But before he fell asleep, he suddenly found that the door of the room was pushed open a crack, and then a nimble figure sneaked in, locked the door behind him, and then slipped onto his own bed.

"Xiaoyun?" Fan Wubing saw Tong Xiaoyun's face clearly through the moonlight coming in through the thin gauze curtain outside the window, and couldn't help being a little surprised.

The last time they were drunk, both of them were doing it instinctively, so this time, neither of them was drunk at all.

Tong Xiaoyun didn't leave any time for Fan Wubing to speak, so she directly kissed Fan Wubing's lips, and stretched out her sweet tongue somewhat jerky, expressing her emotions to Fan Wubing.

Fan Wubing's mind froze a bit, and he reacted instinctively immediately, and responded enthusiastically.

The two quickly broke free from the shackles of their clothes, wishing they could tear each other apart and rub them into their own bodies.

This time, Fan Wubing took the initiative and deeply poured his enthusiasm into Tong Xiaoyun's slightly thin body.

Tong Xiaoyun endured a bit of pain, and responded to Fan Wubing's actions, scratching bloodstains on his back with her nails.
