Germany, at 340:[-] p.m., the Airbus A[-] business jet of the Welf patriarch took off from Berlin International Airport and flew eastward.

In the spacious cabin of the business jet, in the luxurious office, old Welf was sitting with two middle-aged men.

"Father, I still want to say that you go to Fengyuan in person this time, and you really think highly of that kid named 'Fang'." The burly middle-aged man with blond hair in his 40s said, he is Old Welf The second son of Luis George Luger Anderson Welf.

"Louis is right. The two of us can go to one and discuss with him about the equity of the Haiping Mining Company." Martel Marshall Ruger Anderson Welf echoed, he is the third son of Old Welf's younger brother. son.Both of them are now the best of the second generation of the Welf family.This time, at the request of Old Welf, he went to Fengyuan with him.

Old Welf glanced at the two of them calmly and said, "Do you think that my old eyesight is blurred and I can no longer tell the priority of things?"

"Father!"

"Uncle!" Louis and Martel were taken aback and shouted quickly.Such rebellious remarks are not something they dare to say, especially Louis.

The old Welf waved his hand and said: "I have been teaching you since you were young. Although the Welf family has been a noble for a thousand years, it is only the achievements of our ancestors. We are just lying on the ground. The wealth accumulated by the predecessors is the reason for today's status. Over the past thousand years, we have seen countless nobles rise and watch them die. So, don't underestimate anyone! Although he is young, he is already Chinese. The patriarch of the Fang family. And, you go. What is it? Moreover, the equity of Haiping Mining Company is related to the future status of our Welf family in the Aselokki Group Company. It is of great importance, and no mistakes can be tolerated error."

Louis and Martel glanced at each other, with a look of sudden realization on their faces.They also understand that if there is no background of a thousand-year-old nobleman behind them, the wealth and status of the two of them are actually not enough to be on the same level as Fang Mingyuan, and although they thought of the old Welf to go there in person.They valued the iron ore output produced by Haiping Mining Company, but the two did not link this with the Welf family's future status in the Aselokki Group.

Aselokki Group Co., Ltd. is the largest steel group company in Europe and the world at present. It has more than 11 employees and produces nearly 6000 million tons of steel per year, accounting for 5.00% of the world's total output. The annual output value exceeds 300 billion euros !It is the pride of the European steel industry.It is also the pride of the Welf family.

It's just that the other directors of the board of directors of the Aselokki Group Company are still wary of the Welf family, which makes it difficult for the Welf family to increase the shareholding ratio in the company.Although it is said that the Welf family has added an ally to the board of directors by transferring their original shares to the Fang family, but the Fang family's focus is not on Europe. It is still difficult to obtain the top position in the group company.

even though.The steel industry is now known as a sunset industry.It is a smaller and smaller share of a country's GDP, but it is undeniable.It is still a pillar industry of a country.Without a steel industry belonging to one's own country, many other industries in the country, such as shipbuilding and the automobile industry, have to look at the eyes of other countries.It can be said that it is an indispensable pole related to the economic stability of a country.

The Welf family has been engaged in this industry for many years, but the European steel industry is developed and the competition is fierce. It is not easy to create a steel company that can dominate Europe and the world.After many years of secret promotion, the coordination and compromise of multiple families, and the market pressure from the steel companies in the United States and emerging countries, the Acerokee Group was successfully established.But even so, there are still many powerful steel group enterprises in the European continent.

"LNM Iron and Steel Group Corporation is not doing well recently, and I'm worried whether it has a new acquisition target." Old Welf sighed softly.

"Is it possible that the Indian still wants to annex the Aselokki Group?" Louis blurted out.

LNM Group is currently the second largest steel company in the world and the most globalized steel company in the world. The chairman is Mittal who was born in India.The original LNM Group was just a small multinational company with a production capacity of 30 tons of electric furnace steel and two small rod and wire rolling mills in India and Indonesia.However, since entering the 90s, LNM Group, under the leadership of Chairman Mittal, has launched a series of mergers and acquisitions that dazzled and amazed the industry.

Mexico's third largest steelmaker, Canada's fourth largest steelmaker, Germany's Hamburg Iron & Steel Company, Kazakhstan's Steel Company, Irish Steel Company, and the US Steel Company... have all become part of the LNM Group's portfolio.So far, LNM Group has completed twelve acquisitions, and after each acquisition, LNM Group has been able to smoothly integrate and operate new assets and quickly start to make profits.This is also a miracle in the world steel industry.

It is precisely because of this series of acquisitions of steel companies that the LNM Group has rapidly expanded. From an unknown small oriental multinational company, it has now become headquartered in London, England, with an annual output of more than 4000 million tons of steel and an annual output value of 60 tons. The world's second largest steel company with US$[-] billion, following closely behind the Aselokki Group, has become a strong competitor of the Aselokji Group.Judging from the news obtained by Aselokki Group, LNM Group is not complacent because it has expanded to become the world's second largest steel group company, but is continuing to look for the next acquisition target.

"What's impossible?" Old Welf immediately raised his eyebrows. His son's ability is not bad, but he has a shortcoming, which is too arrogant.And he values ​​his aristocratic status too much!Mittal is an Indian. Although he is not from the ordinary commoner class, he is not from a wealthy family either.Therefore, when speaking of him, Louis would often refer to him as "the Indian."

"It's not just the Aselokki Group. Japan's Nippon Steel Corporation, and South Korea's Pohang Iron and Steel Corporation. Which one does it dare not acquire?" Old Welf said, "He made his fortune through a series of acquisitions. , has become the world's second largest steel company, why don't you dare to make another acquisition to become the world's largest steel group company?"

"Uncle, I think we need to be alert to the ambitions of the LNM Group, but we don't have to pay too much attention. As long as we maintain the momentum of rapid development and continue to expand the scale of the Aselokji Group, the LNM Group wants to surpass Aselok It’s not something you can do if you want to. At least, I don’t think the governments of France, Belgium and Luxembourg are happy to see the LNM Group’s acquisition of the Aselokki Group.” Martel said.

"Well... that's a good point, but we can't be careless because of it. Everyone thinks that they will fail every acquisition of LNM Group. Even if the acquisition is successful, the future operation will be difficult, but they always I guessed wrong, I don’t want the Aselokki Group to become its prey in the future!” Old Welf nodded and said. "Those guys on the board of directors always fail to see where the crisis lies! They are only intoxicated by the halo of the Aselokki Group as the world's largest steel company, but they don't see that there are already too many emerging steel companies Catching up!"

Old Welf couldn't help thinking of Fang Mingyuan again. He had already received news that the two major iron and steel groups under the Fang family, Liao Provincial Iron and Steel Group Company and Qinxi Provincial Iron and Steel Group Company.are continuing to expand production capacity.Especially the Fang family's new steel plant in Tangshan, once it is completed and put into operation.It is a huge leap forward for the total output of the Fang family's iron and steel group.

"The kid seems to attach great importance to the steel industry." Old Welf thought to himself, and he also noticed that the Tangshan City Government began to vigorously rectify and control the pollution caused by the production of steel enterprises in the territory.He didn't know why, but he had a feeling that there might be reasons for the Fang family.The Fang family seems to be different from many families in China. While making money, they are also concerned about many other things, such as environmental pollution.

"A bunch of idiots are not as far-sighted as a young man!" Old Welf cursed again in a low voice, not only scolding other directors in the board of directors of Aselokki Group, but also scolding many people in his own family.They did not pay attention to the signs of changes in iron ore prices in the international market.Although the Aselokki Group Company can obtain considerable steelmaking raw materials by recycling scrap steel every year, it still needs a large amount of iron ore. After so many years of mining, iron ore in Europe has been basically exhausted. , Australia, India, Brazil imports.Once the international market price of iron ore rises sharply, if it is only a short-term fluctuation, it will not have a big impact on the Aselokki Group Company, but if it is a mid-to-long-term rise, then it is necessary to have an iron ore company in advance. The shares of ore production enterprises are very important to Aselokki Group.It is even related to the future life and death of the Aselokki Group Company!
Old Welf knew that the reason why LNM Group was able to develop and expand rapidly was not only Chairman Mittal's unique vision and high management level, but one of the most important factors was the iron ore production enterprises under LNM Group. , can meet more than 40.00% of its demand, and coke can be completely self-sufficient, coupled with its ever-expanding production scale, which allows it to obtain greater pricing power when negotiating with those raw material producers .Therefore, if the international price of iron ore has risen sharply, for LNM Group, it is a good opportunity for them to continue to acquire and expand!

Although the old Welf did not discriminate against Mittal, but this does not mean that he is willing to let the LNM Group reach out to the Aselokki Group.When he went to Fengyuan this time, he also hoped to have another talk with Fang Mingyuan on this matter and listen to Fang Mingyuan's opinion.

Although Fang Mingyuan owns 12.00% of the shares of Aselokki Group, old Welf knew that what Fang Mingyuan valued more was the other benefits brought about by his shareholder status, such as cooperation in sales channels, new technology transfer, Staff training etc.If someone could guarantee his requirements, Fang Mingyuan didn't mind transferring all the shares in his hand.This result is not in the interests of the Welf family, especially when the LNM Group company is watching from the sidelines.

Moreover, the old Welf has another idea. If the LNM Group really initiates the acquisition of the Aselokki Group in the future, then it will look for an international partner and reach a cross-shareholding or other financial partnership with it. Undoubtedly, it is one of the effective means for the Aselokki Group to resist its takeover, and the Iron and Steel Group under the Fang family is a good choice.Although this will further strengthen the Fang family's right to speak in the Aselokki Group Company, Fang Mingyuan's attitude of not intending to control the Aselokki Group Company determines that in the future, the Aselokki Group Company will be able to pay a certain amount of money. At the expense of regaining independence.

As for these, Fang Mingyuan needed to be greeted in advance and his approval was obtained before they could start preparing.

However, the most important thing now is to obtain the shares of Haiping Mining Company. Only in this way can we lay a solid foundation for the Welf family to expand their voice in the Aselokki Group in the future.It's just... Although we have had many phone conversations up to now, old Welf still can't grasp the bottom line of Fang Mingyuan's psychology, and he doesn't know what to exchange to increase the attraction of Fang Mingyuan!Although money is good, when facing a person who is not short of money, it can play very little role.

Old Welf's voice was not loud, but because the room was relatively quiet, Louis and Martel also heard it, and the two lowered their eyes at the same time, as if they hadn't heard anything.

There were several knocks on the office door, and old Welf said in a deep voice, "Come in!"

The door was pushed open, and Old Welf's secretary walked in quickly, put a piece of paper on Old Welf's desk and said: "Miss Angelina sent an urgent email, I hope You can see it right away."

Old Welf picked up the paper, glanced at it twice, and couldn't help laughing. (to be continued~^~)
