Rebirth 76: Industrial Internet Empire

Yang Mo's request does not matter to Wukaba. The cost of relocating the aboriginal people is also the wool on the sheep. As the mining area expands, the copper ore reserves will also increase accordingly. The value of the mine will increase. In the end, it will be determined by Zhiyuan pays the bill.

The mining survey technology of this era is destined to severely underestimate these world-class copper mines. The preliminary survey results of the Kamoa-Kakula copper mine show that the copper reserves are only about 100 million tons, and the commercial mining value is less than 2.5 million. Dollar.

The assessed value of the West Comine copper and cobalt mine is even lower, only US$1.2 million. The assessed value of several other small and medium-sized mines is even lower, almost none exceeding US$5000 million.

Zhiyuan Group only spent US$5.8 million to obtain the 35-year mining rights of seven mines.

For Uqaba, the Minister of Mining, this is a remarkable achievement. What Zaire has received is not just 5.8 million US dollars in precious foreign exchange. If the Zhiyuan Group wants to fully develop these mines, it needs to build power plants, mineral processing plants, etc. The industrial facilities infrastructure still needs to invest a few US$5.8 million, which does not include investment in terminals and railway lines...

Future tax revenue will be a big part, and mine development will also drive local economic development. In short, this is a result that Uqaba is very satisfied with.

What Wukaba did not expect was that the commercial value of the Kamoa-Kakula copper mine alone would be enough for the Zaireans to initially lift themselves out of poverty.This large-scale open-pit copper mine with the highest grade in the world can process 380 million tons of copper ore every year after it is fully developed. These high-grade copper ores containing more than 10% copper will have a cathode copper production capacity of nearly 40 tons... …

A good start is half the success. Yang Mo still needs to tie this "world's raw material warehouse" firmly to the Zhiyuan Group tank!

Looting and embezzling at low prices will bring disgust to the local indigenous people. Uncle Sam will never sit back and watch this resource-rich country completely turn to the mainland. They will try every means to incite public opinion. This is a country with more than 200 ethnic groups. The country, for Uncle Sam, wanting to cause political unrest is as simple as eating and drinking...

After Yang Mo pondered for a moment, he said with a smile: "Your Excellency, Minister, I have another proposal. I wonder if you are interested?"

"What proposal?" Uqaba asked with interest.

"Zhiyuan hopes to reach an in-depth strategic partnership with Zaire on the basis of this good cooperation. Zhiyuan is willing to increase investment in Zaire in the next few years..." Yang Mo said.

Uqaba looked delighted and said quickly: "The Zaire government is very much looking forward to the investment of outstanding companies like Zhiyuan, and we will do our best to create a first-class business environment for you..."

"In order to express our sincerity, Zhiyuan will come forward to form an investment inspection team including many outstanding multinational companies from Germany, Japan, and mainland China. If possible, we will also invite some Western banks and asset management companies to visit your country... ..." After Yang Mo pondered for a while, he said in a very sincere tone.

"Is this true? Mr. Yang, the Zaire government is very much looking forward to your arrival, and our people will also thank you for everything you have done for this country!" Uqaba said excitedly and somewhat incoherently.

Yang Mo waved his hand and said carelessly: "Zhiyuan Group is a company that attaches great importance to friendship and feelings. Our investment philosophy is a win-win situation. While making money, we should try our best to promote the development of the local economy!"

Uqaba nodded in agreement: "Yes, win-win cooperation is also the original intention of our Zaire government to introduce foreign investment..."

After Yang Mo thought for a while, he suddenly said: "Mr. Minister, I have another unkind request. The Zhiyuan Group has spread too much in Zaire, and it is not very considerate of your country's government and customs. I'm familiar with it. Could you please help me find a few consulting companies with good government connections? Of course, we will pay these consulting companies a lot of money..."

How could Wukaba not understand Yang Mo's intention? This is a commercial bribery commonly used by Western companies. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded and agreed: "Mr. Yang, don't worry, I will make arrangements..."

Yang Mo had no choice but to do this. Now Zhiyuan can rely on its status as a "Commonwealth Enterprise" to quickly complete its layout in Africa. Once his tendency is exposed in the future, Uncle Sam will definitely try his best to invest in Zhiyuan overseas. Stir yellow!

Bind some big guys and form a community of interests, and maybe you can get miraculous results when the current situation is turbulent!

Just as Yang Mo sent Wukaba away, Luo Binghui hurried in.

As soon as he entered the door, Luo Binghui complained: "Mr. Yang, you can't be a hands-off shopkeeper! We can't afford to offend any of these big guys. You should decide for yourself who to hand over the project to!"

"What's wrong?" Yang Mo asked in surprise.

Luo Binghui smiled bitterly and said: "It's not the mining projects we signed that caused the trouble! Several large companies came to ask for cooperation at once, and the phone number in my office was buzzing. They were all interceding big guys, including the Pengcheng City Committee, The Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, the Ministry of Metallurgy, and the Ministry of Machinery all have them, and whoever gets the final project will offend a lot of people..."

Yang Mo chuckled and said: "I thought it was such a big deal! This is a good thing, the more people come, the better, we just want to bid together!"

"These companies are not small. They are all determined to win. They are eyeing several big projects. In the end, they may offend some Buddha..." Luo Binghui said with concern.

"It's okay, you transfer Chang Yonggui back to be responsible for the bidding for overseas mine construction. He doesn't rub sand in his eyes and doesn't buy anyone's account. As long as it's absolutely fair, everyone has nothing to say!" Yang Mo waved his hand and said .

"Mr. Yang, our estimate of the influence of this Asia-Africa-Latin America Industrial Development Forum is obviously insufficient. All our staff are spinning around and still can't cope with it. It's not appropriate for some young people to talk to other ministers and deputy ministers. !Many countries also complained, feeling that we have neglected others, and they all want to see you..." Luo Binghui changed the topic and continued.

Yang Mo nodded and said: "That's true. People come all the way here, and they can't just meet on the day of the opening ceremony, and then ordinary staff will deal with it. Otherwise, you ask the staff to sort out their needs. , according to the itinerary arranged by them, we will try to meet and talk with them one by one, and the minimum courtesy cannot be lost!"

"Mr. Yang, why don't you meet with those mining companies? Bidding is bidding, and the leaders above must still give them face..." Luo Binghui persuaded.

Yang Mo nodded in agreement and said, "Okay! Which companies are here?"

"Large mining companies such as Hardware Mining Company, MCC, Honghe Copper, CITIC Metal, and Western Mining are basically here, but the strange thing is that there is also a small company that I have never heard of, and it is also here to join in the fun and ask around. You..." Luo Binghui said.
