After spending an afternoon in the Xinma Special Zone, the two did not return to the company headquarters after dinner. Instead, they went to the only five-star hotel in the SAR to open a room.

It is lingering overnight.

The next day, although I wanted to sleep more timidly with a gentle little girl, Jiang Chen still got a bed.

According to Jane’s itinerary, he will meet with representatives of the bhp group today to discuss the renewal of the iron or aluminum ore supply contract.

Luke Joyce, chairman of the bhp group, arrived in the SAR and started talks with Jiang Chen at the headquarters of the future heavy industry.

"Mr. Jiang is a good means. I am afraid that in Germany, the design of Penglai City will be on your desk."

As soon as he met, Luke smiled and extended his hand, but Jiang Chen could still hear some dissatisfaction from his mouth.

This is inevitable, after all, Jiang Chen is very pitted.

The displacement of an aircraft carrier is also 100,000 tons. The steel and aluminum materials consumed by Penglai City can top hundreds of aircraft carriers. Imagine if the United States announced a construction plan for 100 aircraft carriers, which will cause a market for iron and aluminum ore. What impact.

What's more, the Future People Group has never said that they only intend to build a city in Penglai. If the city of Penglai works well, many countries will definitely be interested in this stuff. When Jiang Chen is interested in exporting this "marine city" project, I believe that the order will fly like a snowflake to the future.

Needless to say, China will definitely become the biggest buyer.

The reality is that compared with last year's sluggish metal ore market, iron and aluminum ore have seen a large rebound in both futures and spot. Jiang Chen’s 80 million-ton supply contract was undoubtedly copied on the floor, and he also made a 20% discount on the floor price at the time.

Luke is remorseful and the intestines are green. But there is no way, the contract is here. For the group's reputation, their bhp group had to pinch their noses.

Recognize it. The 40 million tons of ore has already been supplied, and the future group wants to renew the contract? Then let's talk about the price increase!

“The price of iron ore has risen all the way this year. The original price is no longer suitable.”

"How much are you going to raise the price?" Looking at Luke's face, Jiang Chen smiled.

"According to the current market price, we will give you 90% cheaper." Luke did not hesitate to speak.

"What is the current market price? Do you think that I don't know that you released the global iron ore reduction report by the International Mining Union a week ago, raising the price of iron and aluminum ore in the futures and spot markets?" Jiang Chen said with a smile. .

With Jane's data collection capabilities, any information that has been published can't escape her capture. After summarizing this information, it is not difficult to analyze the connection between these two things.

Luke looked stiff.

He did not expect that Jiang Chen, who was focusing on the layout of the graphene market, could also focus on the commodity market that did not stand up. Generally speaking. The report of the International Mining Union (imaa) will only be of concern to the industry. If it is not for the first time, Jiang Chen will be prepared to do so enough!

"85% of the market price can't be lower. It is impossible to supply at last year's price! If you nod, we can sign the contract now," Luke said.

Jiang Chen shook his head.

“The Penglai project has consumed a total of 1.79 million tons of steel and aluminum. Most of the steel and aluminum are consumed in the post-war reconstruction of Mindanao and the development of the Xinma Special Zone. We have 5 reserves of more than 40 million tons in Mindanao. The iron mine, but there is no plan for mining. You don’t have too many chips in the bargaining. Do you understand what I mean?”

Future People's Mining's main project is subsea mining, which mainly produces metals such as molybdenum, manganese, copper, nickel and cobalt. The gross profit of mining iron, aluminum and other ores is too low, so even if there are many iron mines from the Moro government. In the future, the mining industry is also slow to plan to mine.

Luke narrowed his eyes and pointed his fingers on the table, thinking about how to talk about the business. Jiang Chen looked at him with a smile. Waiting for his offer to make concessions.

"Do you have iron ore in Mindanao?"

"Yes, and it is still a very high quality iron ore, probably 67-68. Not only iron ore, but also two aluminum mines." Jiang Chen smiled. "You should know. A year ago, in the organization Under the harassment, the investment environment in Mindanao is very poor, and the Philippine government is simply unable to develop those rich mines on a large scale. But now, these minerals are in our hands."

Jiang Chen’s words expressed two meanings. The first layer is: we have mine in our hands. If your price is higher than the cost of our own mining, we will not take you to play! The second layer is: The Future People Group is no longer a group of future people a year ago. Don't think again, we will be forced to make compromises at other levels of pressure. Not to mention the Irish aristocrats who followed Rothschild, the Boston consortium was dried up by us. Will we still be afraid of you?

Silence lasted for a long time, and Luke sighed.

"After life is awesome."

"Do you still know Chinese?" Jiang Chen smiled.

"I only learned a little bit recently." Luke waved his hand. "I don't want to go. I have a proposal now, which is in the interest of both of us."

"Appreciate further details."

“We have an advantage in iron ore mining, transportation and management, and your advantages have just been mentioned. You have the resources of Mindanao and the influence in the Moro country. We can jointly register a joint venture in Moro. Mining companies, we each hold 50% of the shares. We are out of the people and technology, you out of the mine and responsible for public relations, how do you see?" Luke leaned forward and lowered his voice.

Bhp can push the price of ore to a very low level, but it is limited by the import and export tariffs, the opening of fiscal taxes, environmental penalties and other expenses, so that the gross profit of iron and aluminum ore has not been able to go up. If the future people's group can rely on its own influence to reduce the taxes and fees on the production and export of Mindanao, the bhp mining industry will have a large profit margin even if it supplies cheap ore to the future people group.

"This proposal is really good." Jiang Chen's eyes lit up and he was interested in nodding.

Those iron ore mines and aluminum mines have been idle, and there is no extra energy for mining in the future. This proposal is equivalent to contracting mining to the bhp group, and the two parties are divided into five to five profits.

However, when Luke thought that the agreement was reached, Jiang Chen was a turn of the word. "But is the stock you want too high?"

This vampire!

Luke snorted in his heart, but his face did not make any expression, calm face and Jiang Chen argued. In the end, the two sides reached an agreement. Jiang Chen invested 70 million US dollars and minerals, and bhp Mining Group invested 150 million US dollars. The equity ratio of the two parties is 55% and 45%.

This is also Luke’s bottom line.

It takes time to print the contract, and the parties agree to formally sign the contract tomorrow. However, as both parties, it is unlikely to make a temporary return, so the cooperation between the future mining industry and the bhp group can basically be finalized.

Feel the vibration of the watch.

After Luke left, Jiang Chen pressed on the watch, and Jane's holographic bust appeared next to the desk.

"Is there any problem?" Looking at the Jane who had something to say, Jiang Chen and Yan Yue opened their mouths.

Because of the need to make a transcript for the conference, Jiang Chen turned on the recording function. His conversation with Luke can be heard naturally.

“In my database I have retrieved more advanced mining technology than the world, and we can mine it ourselves.”

Upon hearing Jane's question, Jiang Chen smiled and shook his head, and stuffed the signed documents into the drawer.

"We can never make the world's money, and it doesn't make sense to do so."

“Is there a problem with my proposal from the perspective of efficiency?” Jane asked.

"A lot of things are considered from the perspective of efficiency. It is a problem in itself. Compared with the last profit of the crush, we can completely separate this part of the benefits and use this chain of interests to tie more people to our chariot. In exchange for greater benefits." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Greater interests? What is that?"

"No matter what it is, it is not the US dollar anyway." (To be continued.)
