Chapter 113 Travel

Zhao Guodong was very optimistic about Fangziquan's proposal that many private steel companies such as United Shagang Group, Rizhao Steel, Guofeng Steel and other private steel companies have acquired stakes in Fosterke Metal Group to form a consortium to control the upstream ore costs with interest. He immediately agreed. Zhao Changchuan and Zhao Deshan also cautiously expressed their support after Zhao Guodong expressed their agreement, which made Fangziquan overjoyed.

I originally thought that I would get support from the Zhao brothers in this plan, but I didn't expect that Zhao Guodong expressed his support attitude so simply and quickly. This is an unexpected surprise.

In the early stage, the house has purchased 7% of the shares of Fosterke Metal Group through Guoquan Energy's Hong Kong subsidiary, Guoquan Investment Company. Since Fosterke Metal Group's current share price is low, less than AUD 0.1 per share, it costs only more than AUD 1 million.

According to the agreement between Fangziquan and the Zhao brothers, investments of less than 10 million do not need to be reported to the controlling party, Canglang Group in advance, but only need to report them like board members in the monthly routine report. This is mainly to facilitate Fangziquan to temporarily handle some affairs.

House Quan Hope Guoquan Investment has joined forces with Shagang, Rizhao Steel, Jianlong Steel, Guofeng Steel, Rongcheng Steel and other private enterprises to invest in Fosterke Metal Group, but it does not require a controlling stake because Andrew Frist himself hopes that he will lead the mining and construction of the Pilbara area. On this point, House Quan has had contact with Frist himself twice in Hong Kong.

Due to the domestic instinct distrust of foreign companies, through Guoquan Energy, a large enterprise that has close strategic business relations with various steel companies, this can make Fosterke Metal Group more smoothly recognize the domestic steel companies, and jointly investing in Fosterke Metal Group will also help eliminate doubts about domestic steel companies.

After two rounds of negotiations with Fangziquan, Frist himself initially accepted Fangziquan's opinion and agreed to Guoquan Investment to join forces with many domestic steel companies to acquire shares in Fosterke Metal Group without seeking control, becoming a strategic shareholder of Fosterke Metal Group. At the same time, the steel companies will provide high deposits in advance like Fosterke Metal Group in the form of signing long-term supply to obtain stable long-term supply.

Zhao Guodong cannot help but admire Fangziquan's understanding and operational ability. He was able to capture such information so quickly and take it for himself. This is to seize the opportunity and come up with such a strategy to enter upstream iron mine enterprises. Not only can we make profits from the mining of iron mines, but it also brings Guoquan Energy's connection with these steel enterprises closer, allowing Guoquan Energy's coal to obtain more stable sales channels.

The formation of Fosterke Metal Group, Guoquan Energy and many domestic private steel companies will undoubtedly make Guoquan Energy more prominent as the link between Fosterke Metal Group and many domestic private steel companies, and can also enable Guoquan Energy to use some of the personal resources of Fosterke Metal Group in Australia to help Guoquan Energy gain help in the acquisition and development of Australian coal resources. From another perspective, it will also make Guoquan Energy more closely connected with many private steel companies, and also open the door to sales for these private steel companies.

"Brother, do you really think that Brother Ziquan's decision is fine?" Zhao Deshan was still a little worried.

"Deshan, Ziquan is better than your brother in some aspects. At least in this judgment, your brother Ziquan did a very exciting job. I believe that Guoquan Energy's attack this time will achieve unprecedented returns." Zhao Guodong lay on the sofa, thinking about something.

The houses are all gone. He wants to fly to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow to continue discussing cooperation with the Australians. After obtaining the consent of the Zhao brothers, he will speed up the acquisition plan of Fosterke Metal Group shares.

According to the agreement signed by Fangziquan and Fosterke Metal Group, Guoquan Energy will increase the proportion of holding Fosterke Metal Group to 19% at the price of AUD 0.1 per share, and many other domestic steel companies will also hold 20% of Fosterke Metal Group within three months. Then the steel companies will sign a long-term supply contract with Fosterke Metal Group within the agreed time and deposit a high deposit into Fosterke Metal Group's account. Fosterke Metal Group needs to start mining and infrastructure construction projects in the Pilbara mining area within the specified time.

"Brother, I don't know how much benefit Guoquan Energy can get in the investment of Fosterke Metal Group, but at least Guoquan Energy has acquired the ally of Fosterke Metal Group in Australia in this way, and on the other hand, it has obtained a group of stable sales customers in China, which can greatly enhance Guoquan's risk resistance, especially in the event of economic recession." Zhao Changchuan also saw this clearly.

"Well, this is a good thing to win three goals in one go. Deshan and Changchuan, you must learn from Ziquan in these aspects. Once you have determined a certain decision, you must do your best to implement it without hesitation and win the initiative to the greatest extent." Zhao Guodong was also a little intoxicated by the plan of Fangquan. This action may have an unexpected impact on the entire China's steel industry, especially triggering domestic steel companies to take the initiative to go out to find upstream resources and reduce the cost increase pressure brought by raw material imports.

Zhao Guodong never expected Lan Dai to use this trick. When he got on the plane, he found that Lan Dai had already sat in a corner on the plane.

Although it is several rows away from her position, such an elegant and unique girl can easily attract the attention of the passengers on the plane. Zhao Guodong is not blind. Of course, he can see Lan Dai quietly sitting by the window and looking out the window and not daring to look at him.

He was helpless about Lan Dai's behavior. He had no right to ask Lan Dai to not take this plane. If you say more on the plane at this time, it would cause unnecessary trouble. He could not determine whether there were people he knew on the plane. Maybe there were passengers from Ningling who were following him?

Fortunately, Lan Dai was not so ignorant. Until she landed in Wujiaba Airport in Kunming, she just stayed quietly in a corner, and didn't even look at Zhao Guodong, which made Zhao Guodong feel much more at ease.

It was not until a Buick business car with a Dian O license plate came to pick up Zhao Guodong that Zhao Guodong pretended to be surprised when he passed by Lan Dai and asked the driver to stop the car as if he had met by chance.

Buick business car took Zhao Guodong and the others to the Cuihu Hotel in Kunming. It is located near the emerald of the city center of Queensland. The scenery is beautiful and pleasant, so the Cuihu Hotel is named after it. It is also one of the main choices for high-end customers who come to Queensland to travel.

Compared with the prosperity and complexity of Andu, Kunming is like a small family in the southwest border, charming, with a pleasant climate like spring all year round and a unique environment with a high and high profile, making it quite livable throughout the country and even the whole world.

This is also a well-known tourist city in the country and even the world. The climate of spring all year round and the environment of multi-ethnic settlements make this place a well-deserved brilliant pearl in the southwest of the motherland.

The person who received Zhao Guodong was a staff member from the Provincial Party Committee's Office. He was calm and had no extra words. Even if Zhao Guodong pretended to meet Lan Dai by chance, he said hello to the other party and invited him to the city together, the other party looked like he was unfaithful and had no feelings, which made Zhao Guodong admire the other party's qi cultivation skills.

Zhao Guodong didn't say much. He got off at Cuihu Hotel. Although the other party didn't say much, he was very enthusiastic. He also asked if he needed to book a room for Lan Dai. Lan Dai politely declined, saying that he had his own itinerary in Queensland, and the other party didn't say much. He said hello to Zhao Guodong before leaving.

Lan Dai is very relaxed, with only a backpack on her back. The milky white down jacket looks a bit thin in An, but it looks very suitable in Queensland. The pair of fitted black jeans and a pair of Gaobang travel shoes are refreshing and bright.

"You really want to travel alone?" Zhao Guodong frowned in a corner of the hall with some worries.

"What, can you still take care of me in Queensland?" Lan Dai smiled playfully, "You go and do your business, well, if you have time after you finish your work, then let's talk about it."

Zhao Guodong shook his head. Cai Zhengyang was not like him. He could take a few days to come and have a leisurely trip. As the Party Committee of the Southern Yunnan Provincial Committee, it is no exaggeration to do anything every day. Even during the Spring Festival, there is not much time for him to be private. Although he had already made an appointment to come to Kunming, maybe he was still full of everything and could take time to have a meal with him, and then have two hours to talk quietly with him. That was already Amitabha.

"Then you go and do your business. Don't worry about me. I have long wanted to come to Queensland for fun. Maybe I also want to visit the Wild Elephant Valley in the south. I especially like tropical primeval forests, which are completely different from our northeastern forests." Lan Dai's eyes showed a yearning look, "I have gone to many places, but I have not been to the south yet."
