Chapter 337: Game
Feng always wondered why Zhirkov was suddenly anxious to find Chen Ling, but Chen Ling could instinctively smell it.
It should have something to do with iron ore!
At this time, Chen Ling was having a headache how to solve the Tangkelili iron ore problem. At this time, someone in the industry was looking for himself, and he wanted to hear what the other party would say.
After lunch, Chen Ling and Hu Xiaoxiao went to a nearby park and hid in a cool place to chat. They could sit back to back or lie on their thighs. They just stay together anyway.
As it was getting dark, Zhirkov called.
Zhirkov was very polite, thanked Chen Ling again, and then talked about his purpose.
Sure enough, it has something to do with iron ore. Zhirkov was invited to Cameroon by Mellina, with the purpose of using the capabilities of Zhirkov’s steel company to develop a super-large iron ore in Mbaram to drive Cameroon’s economic development. This Mbaram iron ore mine is so large that even though the Cherkov Steel Company in Zhirkov is the largest in Russia, it is difficult to invest and develop independently, so it considered finding a strong unit to cooperate in investment.
“How big is the investment scale?” Chen Ling asked. This kind of thing can’t be completely believed, so we must first hear the information clearly before telling it.
Zhirkov said: “The total investment is 5 billion U.S. dollars.”
“So much!” Chen Ling was taken aback. Cameroon has a lot of people and a lot of land, but its economic strength is not very good. Will it be too greedy to get a $5 billion project all at once?
Zhirkov explained: “The initial investment of this project is relatively large, mainly because of the construction of a brand-new railway, a deep-water port, and the first phase of investment in the mine.”
“How big is the mine reserves? Is it enough to recover the infrastructure investment?” Chen Ling asked. With this $5 billion going down, I don’t know how much iron ore is needed to exchange investment back.
“The reserves of Mbaram iron ore exceed 2 billion tons, and there is still potential for future exploration. Railways and ports are not only used for Mbaram iron ore. Neighboring countries like Congo-Brazzaville and Gabon have large iron ore mines. It’s called the Iron Triangle. The initially proven volume exceeds 10 billion tons, and the prospective resource volume exceeds 100 billion tons.” Zhirkov explained, “I will send you a business plan with specific data and original data. Exploration data.”
Chen Ling couldn’t help but shook his head and said, “Such a big project, it’s too hard!”
Zhirkov continued: “Mr. Chen, if you are not in this industry, you may not know your country’s desire for iron ore. Don’t say 5 billion US dollars. As long as you can get high-quality iron ore, you can invest more in your country. All are willing to pay.”
“I’m just a person, and I can’t represent our country.” Chen Ling said.
“Mr. Chen, to be honest, I didn’t consider letting you invest…”
“Then why are you looking for me?”
Zhirkov said: “I have a list of large steel companies in China. They are very interested in iron ore in Africa. I want to find one of them to cooperate and develop this project together. So , I would like to ask you to act as an intermediary to help me introduce them to Cameroon for inspection. You can get a commission for every one you introduce.”
Chen Ling probably understood, and asked, “Do you want me to earn this commission?”
Zhirkov smiled and said, “You earned this from your own relationship, not I gave it to you.”
“Mr. Zhirkov, you are so good at thinking for me… Well, you can send me the materials first, and I will think about it.” Chen Ling decided to take a look first. Shuixi Iron and Steel is eagerly looking for iron ore. Perhaps the steel company in China really needs iron ore.
There is no jujube to play three poles, anyway, it doesn’t take much effort.
Hu Xiaoxiao sat next to Chen Ling, listened to a vague voice, watched Chen Ling hung up the phone, and asked: “Boss Chen, $5 billion?”
“Well, an iron ore and supporting facilities, the investment scale of 5 billion US dollars.” Chen Ling said.
Hu Xiaoxiao frowned and said, “Is it iron ore again? Unfamiliar industry, be careful!”
“It’s okay. He didn’t pull me to invest, but wanted me to be an intermediary. Let me see first, and if the opportunity is good, I will also intervene.” Chen Ling said, “Non-renewable natural resources are good to control. of.”
“You don’t have a diamond mine to change this time, how can you get in?” Hu Xiaoxiao teased.
“I don’t know, watch while walking.” Chen Ling said, “It’s dark, are you hungry? If you are hungry, let’s eat; if we are not hungry, how about we go to the movies?”
“Oh, we are so deserted, we only know that we eat, drink and have fun, and feel guilty…” Hu Xiaoxiao suddenly raised her arms with a self-reproachful expression, “It’s so happy! Let’s buy fried chicken and coke, and then watch a movie!”
…
The next day was Monday, and Hu Xiaoxiao was going to work, so she didn’t have time to accompany Chen Ling, let Chen Ling play alone, and contact him in the evening.
The internet in the hotel is not good, so Chen Ling found an internet cafe and started to work listening to music.
Zhirkov sent the materials, and Chen Ling looked around. He could understand the investment content, but he was dazzled by the iron ore introduction, so he gave up directly.
The list of iron ore companies is all in English. Chen Ling searched the Internet for a while before translating all of them into Chinese and found that one of them was Shuixi Iron and Steel.
There are not only company names on the list, but also a brief introduction of each company’s attempts and successful cases to develop mines overseas in recent years. After reading it, Chen Ling realized that Huaguo’s steel companies are eager to obtain their own iron ore sources overseas.
Chen Ling thought for a while, planning to contact Shuixi Iron and Steel first. For other steel companies, Chen Ling had only heard of the names, and didn’t know any one of them. He contacted them rashly. He might be questioned by someone as a liar. That feels bad.
“You are lucky.” Chen Ling found out the phone number of Shuixi Iron and Steel Hou Yongsheng.
The Internet cafes in the morning are quieter. The webmaster girls are cleaning, a few young people who have failed the night to sleep in front of the computer, and a few wearing headphones are playing games and watching movies.
The road was too noisy, and Chen Ling decided to call in the Internet cafe.
“Hey, hello, Mr. Hou, I’m Ling Chen…Yes, yes, I was busy last time, sorry…That’s it, I have another mine in my hands, I don’t know if your unit is interested… ”
Hearing “I have another mine in my hands”, the cleaning girl glanced at Chen Ling, wondering what game this is, and can trade mines?
“…In Cameroon, Africa, the Mbaram Iron Mine, the one known as the Iron Triangle…oh, you know, that’s good…the investment scale is 5 billion US dollars…”
The webmaster girl is even more curious, what kind of realistic game is this? Africa, the US dollar, but the amount is too exaggerated, not close to reality at all.
“… President Hou, we will talk about the Tang Kelili matter later. Today, I will talk about the Mbaram iron mine. I have the information. I will send you… I will find another one?… Is it an infrastructure company? I can find what I am familiar with. You are right, go to sea in groups, and each do professional things…”
Chen Ling put down his mobile phone and saw that the shape of the bones stood up, and the pale-skinned webmaster was standing next to him. Chen Ling stood up to help her sweep the floor.
“What game are you playing?” The female webmaster smiled and spoke softly, like a decadent girl in anime.
“Games? I didn’t play games.”
“Oh…Tang Keli, Mbaram, do you want to add up to 10 billion US dollars?” The female network manager has a good hearing and memory, and she will remember it after listening to it from a distance.
Chen Ling smiled and said, “Did you hear? It’s not good to eavesdrop on other people’s calls. Get off the phone!”
“Will this kind of realistic game be difficult?” The female webmaster didn’t give up.
“Why do you think this must be a game?”
The female webmaster sneered and said, “Who is going to dangerous places like Africa, except for playing games?”
Chen Ling was dumbfounded and said, “Yes, it’s just a game.”
