Chapter 183 I Have Iron Ore (Add More)

The person who came in was a middle-aged man with a slightly bald head. He was probably one of the senior executives of Donghai Iron and Steel Group. This person also knew that Chang Jianliang was receiving important guests in the office. When he came in, he nodded slightly to Wang Xudong and Zheng Xiaotong.

However, I was also very astonished in my heart. I must have never thought about it. The two guests of Chang Jianliang are so young, they only look like they are in their early twenties, and the male is sunny and handsome, while the female is very beautiful.

This middle-aged man was indeed one of the top executives of Donghai Iron and Steel Group Corporation. Meng Zhixiang, the deputy general manager, was in charge of procurement. He knew that Chang Jianliang was meeting important guests and knocked on the door. Meng Zhixiang must have encountered a big event.

Sure enough, Meng Zhixiang nodded apologetically towards Wang Xudong and Zheng Xiaotong. After saying hello, Meng Zhixiang's face changed slightly, with a bit of anxiety and solemnity, and said slowly: "Mr. Chang, I'm sorry to disturb you, there is an important thing Things need to be reported to you."

Chang Jianliang saw that it was a matter of work, so he dispelled the trace of dissatisfaction from his heart just now, and said in a calm tone: "Mr. Meng, what's the matter?"

Meng Zhixiang looked at Wang Xudong and Zheng Xiaotong, hesitated to speak, Chang Jianliang waved and said: "Mr. Meng, tell me what you want, this is not an outsider."

Seeing what Chang Jianliang said, Meng Zhixiang reported the matter again. Meng Zhixiang was in charge of procurement. For a super-large steel group, the most important thing in procurement was naturally raw materials, and the most important of raw materials was undoubtedly iron ore.

Donghai Iron and Steel Group imports tens of millions of tons of iron ore every year, a large part of which is imported from Australia. It is now December, and the iron ore procurement work for the next fiscal year has started and started.

There are more than a dozen mining companies that have business relations with Donghai Iron and Steel Group, including some international mining giants and some relatively powerful mining companies in Australia.

Now there is a small problem. An Australian mining company unilaterally proposed to increase the price of iron ore, and the increase was relatively large, directly increasing by 10%. A professional, Meng Zhixiang smelled something unusual.

After listening to Meng Zhixiang's report, Chang Jianliang's expression suddenly turned solemn. Obviously, Chang Jianliang also had a keen insight into the crisis involved.

Chang Jianliang said slowly: "Mr. Meng, the Australian mining company that proposed a price increase can only be regarded as medium in scale and strength among our many iron ore suppliers. Such a mining company proposed a price increase. We have to pay attention to that.”

According to the truth, the price increase of bulk commodities like iron ore is usually led by some international mining giants on the bright side, but this time is different, and there are mysteries everywhere.

Meng Zhixiang nodded and said: "Mr. Chang, my opinion is the same as yours. I guess that there are some international mining giants behind this. Maybe they are instigating behind the scenes, and this company proposes to raise prices. The purpose is to test."

This is indeed a test. The rapid development of China's domestic economy has stimulated the prosperity of the steel industry. The development of the steel industry is so good that it requires a large amount of iron ore, and most of these iron ores need to be imported. Some international mining giants Under the leadership of the company, the international iron ore price has been rising.

From everyone's point of view, the current price of iron ore has reached a peak, more than 200 US dollars per ton of iron ore, equivalent to RMB [-] or hundreds of yuan per ton, the price is already scary enough, if the price rises again, steel The profit margin of the enterprise will be greatly compressed, and even losses may occur.

Steel giants like Donghai Iron and Steel Group consume tens of millions of tons of iron ore every year. If the iron ore rises by one yuan per ton, it will cost tens of millions more, not to mention that the other party will increase by 10%. It is absolutely unacceptable.

After gaining insight into the opponent's plan, Chang Jianliang knew that there were some international mining giants behind him, and knew that the opponent was a kind of temptation.

If you agree to the other party and agree to the price increase of that mining company, once you start this one, if the first mining company raises its price, there will be a second one immediately. The final result is that all mining companies collectively increase their prices. The other party, the other party will use this as a threat.

Because the import of iron ore is controlled by others!

Chang Jianliang stood up with a solemn expression, walking back and forth in the office, thinking about countermeasures, and Meng Zhixiang also had a serious expression, waiting for Chang Jianliang's decision.

Zheng Xiaotong looked at Wang Xudong, and then at Chang Jianliang. Seeing that Chang Jianliang encountered such a difficult problem, Zheng Xiaotong couldn't bear it.

Zheng Xiaotong couldn't help asking: "Xudong, don't you have iron ore?"

Wang Xudong does have iron ore. There are two major iron ore mining areas in Wujiang City, the Doulishan mining area and the Huangtang mining area. The daily iron ore production of the Douliashan mining area is about [-] tons. Lin has undergone some expansion, and it should develop very quickly. Wang Xudong is very confident that it will reach a daily output of more than [-] tons before the Chinese New Year.

In Australia, Wang Xudong also has a large iron mine. The original owner of this iron mine has invested huge sums of money, and even the railway has been repaired. Such a foundation is there. After Song Qingsong arrived there, it developed rapidly and produced a large amount every day. of iron ore.

Wang Xudong holds three large iron mines, all of which are under rapid development, and the output of iron ore is steadily increasing, especially the development of Australian iron mines is simply rapid, with a large amount of iron ore for sale.

Wang Xudong nodded, and then said to Chang Jianliang, "Uncle Chang, I have some iron ore on hand."

Thinking that Wang Xudong had very little iron ore, Chang Jianliang shook his head, "Xudong, your iron ore is probably a drop in the bucket, not enough at all."

Wang Xudong asked, "Uncle Chang, how much iron ore do you want?"

Chang Jianliang thought about it, if he could sign an iron ore contract of 500 to [-] million tons, it would turn things around and even shatter the opponent's conspiracy.

The other party unilaterally proposed a price increase, and there are some world mining giants behind them. If Donghai Iron and Steel Group can withstand the pressure, refuse the other party's price increase, and even sign a high-profile contract with another mining company for a three- to five-million-ton iron ore Stone contract, then things will be completely different.

If it is possible to sign a 500-[-] million ton iron ore contract with a new mining company right away, it is to tell those overseas mining companies who want to raise prices, especially those mining giants, take a look, we are not threatened, You want to increase the price, no way, we do not accept your price increase, we have new iron ore suppliers.

However, it is estimated to be difficult. The international procurement of iron ore is not a buyer's market. On the contrary, it is a seller's market. The output and price of iron ore are dominated by the seller. Those international mining giants who are sellers want to raise prices Generally, it will be able to rise, especially in the environment and background of such a shortage of ore supply, the price increase can generally be successful, which has also led to the rise of international iron ore prices.

To crush the conspiracy of those international mining giants, Donghai Iron and Steel Group needs a new mining company and needs to sign a contract of 500 by the size of the new mining company by [-] million to [-] million yuan.

Tell the other party through the signing of this new contract, take a look, you want to increase the price, right?

But where to look for such a new mining company anytime soon?This is a difficult problem, a very difficult problem.

In Chang Jianliang's view, even if Wang Xudong's Douliashan mining area has a daily output of 100 tons, it can only meet the local needs of Wujiang City. It is impossible to sell a large amount of iron ore to Donghai Iron and Steel Group. Some of the iron ore can be sold to Donghai Iron and Steel Group, and the estimated amount is not much, hundreds of thousands of tons, or more than [-] million tons.

It is estimated that more than 100 million tons are the top of the sky, so Chang Jianliang sighed, saying that the quantity is too small, and it is a drop in the bucket.

Wang Xudong smiled, knowing that Chang Jianliang didn't know that he had just taken over the Huangtang Iron Mine, let alone that he had a large iron mine in Australia.

Seeing that Wang Xudong was confident and smiling, Chang Jianliang was puzzled at first, but then he remembered what he knew about Wang Xudong, and knew that Wang Xudong was not a person who fired empty guns. If he was not completely sure, Wang Xudong would never be like this.

Chang Jianliang thought to himself: "Could it be that Xudong has a large amount of iron ore, can it sign a big contract with Donghai Iron and Steel Group for three to five million tons?"

Immediately, Chang Jianliang's eyes lit up, and his eyes fell on Wang Xudong.
