Reborn as the richest man in India

"Qiao Ge, how big is this?" Hu Lin calmed down and asked.

"If you want to do it, you have to be big. I dare not say monopoly. At least you have to be among the top players in the industry." Qiaogo said with a smile, "Judging from the iron ore mines discovered now, high-quality ore is mainly concentrated in Brazil. and Australia, so our investment direction is mainly in these two places. When the time comes, exploration and acquisition of iron ore companies will go hand in hand. Now the steel industry is in a downturn, and the mines acquired do not need to start production immediately. As strategic reserves, I believe in the future of this industry It’s definitely bright.”

Hu Lin did not say anything immediately. He knew very well that foreign iron ore was indeed cheaper and of higher quality.

If there are more people like Qiao Ge in the world who want to acquire iron ore companies, it is very likely that a few major companies will monopolize the iron ore market.

Hu Lin expressed his concerns.

Qiao Ge was a little impressed. Hu Lin could think of this now. It was really not easy. He was worthy of being an elite figure in China.

"It is possible." Qiao Ge said, "Judging from some news I have received, some iron ore companies have begun to merge. The current actions are not big, but I think this trend will accelerate in the future. From my side The funds for the newly formed International United Mining Company have not yet been fully secured, and the equity aspects have not yet been decided. We are going to go to the beautiful country in half a month to have detailed discussions with Rohatin, where we will finalize everything."

Hu Lin stared at Qiao Ge and understood immediately: "Qiao Ge, what do you mean, we can also join your company?"

"I can't guarantee this to you, because there are others. But I can mention that if you really want to join, I will try my best to convince them to let you join in," Qiao Ge said.

"Qiao Ge, is this company headed by Mr. Rohatin?" Hu Lin asked.

He also wanted to know how much say Qiao Ge had in the company.

"No, his investment won't be too much. I should be the big one." Qiao Ge said with a grin.

"Big head?" Hu Lin asked in surprise, "How much can it account for?"

"I think it can account for more than 50%." Qiaogo replied.

"Can they agree to this?" Hu Lin said with his eyes widened.

In his opinion, even if Qiao Ge could join this company, he would definitely only be a small shareholder.

But I didn’t expect Qiao Ge to say that he could account for more than 50%.

He should be confident that he could say this.

50%, that’s 1 billion US dollars.

Qiao Ge has already invested 500 million in Hongkong, can he still spend at least another 1 billion US dollars?

It seems that Qiao Ge's benefits from Big Brother are much greater than he expected. It's amazing.

"Their minds are not here." Qiao Ge thought for a moment and said, "They are more interested in financial investments, such as stocks."

This is true, people like Rohatyn and Lawrence are experts and powerful in financial operations.

Generally speaking, there is little direct involvement and investment in physical companies.

Even if Rohatyn manages Lazard Investment Bank, he mainly provides funds to others, such as supporting Arnault, and conducting various acquisitions of companies.

It is impossible for them to actually enter the company's operations. They often control and harvest through indirect means.

Hu Lin thought about it. Qiao Ge basically invested in industry, so he could invest so much.

"Alas~~" Hu Lin suddenly sighed and said, "I think most of the leaders above will not agree to participate in the stock."

"Why?" Qiao Ge asked a little strangely.

How could Hu Lin be so sure without even asking?

From Qiao Ge's point of view, this is definitely a good thing.

It can be said that I have made a profit, and I hope that I can somewhat resolve the situation of China being extorted in iron ore in the future.

"To tell you the truth, our country currently has very little foreign investment. If you want to invest, you must either invest fully, or if not, at least have a controlling stake." Hu Lin explained.

These words made Qiao Ge stunned for a moment.

That certainly won't work.

If Rohatin and the others knew that Huaxia wanted to take control of the company, how could they agree?

The reason why I hold the controlling stake is because I had a huge interest relationship with Rohatin and the others before, and Rohatin and the others are not that interested in these industries.

So they just join in the fun and have little control over the actual business.

They will only come forward if the project encounters any problems.

Of course, they are shares of the company. This alone has great power and can save the company a lot of trouble.

If it was really a project they were interested in, could they not hold the lion's share?

"This is unlikely." Qiao Ge said.

Qiao Ge couldn't help but think of some news circulating on the Internet in his previous life.

It is said that China once had the opportunity to acquire a large share of FMG, the fourth largest iron ore giant, with a 20% share. This share is absolutely amazing.

And it was still in the early days of FMG, when the stock price was still cheap. Once successful, the benefits would be huge.

But in the end, because China's domestic requirement was to hold a controlling stake, which meant at least 50%, the negotiation failed.

However, there is still some domestic capital in FMG, which was invested at an earlier stage, but unfortunately the shares are much smaller.

Qiaogo can understand the domestic persistence.

That is the distrust of those foreign capitals. I feel that I am not a controlling shareholder. I am just a small shareholder by investing alone, and I feel uneasy.

But foreign countries are also wary of China. Not to mention holding a controlling stake, even if they have a larger share, they may not necessarily agree.

Regarding the idea of ​​domestic holdings of foreign investments, Qiao Ge did not want to make any comments, because there are advantages and disadvantages, and one cannot judge whether it is good or bad based on one thing alone.

Hu Lin also sighed, knowing that Qiao Ge would not agree.

This investment was made by Qiao Ge and the others, and they later wanted to hold a controlling stake. Wouldn't that mean they were mainly anti-customers?

Besides, Qiao Ge and the others don’t lack funds. They can do it by themselves, so why bring themselves?

"I will report this matter and try to convince the leaders." Hu Lin said.

"Brother, regarding overseas investments, especially investments related to some national strategies, the forces in Europe and the United States may not let you intervene easily. They are very wary of red capital and are naturally resistant and hostile. So I really want to If you want to invest, it is best to change your identity, not directly in the official name, find an agent or the like," Qiao Ge said.

When Hu Lin heard what Qiao Ge said, he immediately understood.

Socialism will indeed be hostile to those countries.

What Qiao Ge said makes sense. If you invest in the future, you really need to change your skin.

It may not be possible to hide the investigation from those who are interested, but when the interests are great enough, the other party may still turn a blind eye and pretend not to know.

"Actually, you really don't have to be obsessed with holding shares." Qiao Ge said, "Many times, being able to participate in shares is a victory. I wonder how much you know about the investment situation of island countries in the overseas iron ore industry?"

"This?" Hu Lin thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about it, but I know that they have stakes in many iron ore companies overseas. Now, they have more or less shares in those big companies."

"Yes, in their camps in Europe and the United States, it will be much easier to acquire and acquire shares, but even so, there are not many who can control the shares. They just participate and occupy a small share." Qiao Ge said.

Of course Hu Lin understands what Qiao Ge means. Even island countries have no chance of holding a controlling stake, let alone China?

And they have all accepted it. Do they really want to insist on holding the controlling stake?

"I have to say that the island countries are still very aware of the crisis, and their investment in resources is very advanced." Qiao Ge said, "They started investing in these long ago, and then their economy took off and the usage of steel increased sharply. But With their own interests in iron ore overseas, even if the price of ore rises and they lose some money on imports, they can still share part of the profits from the shares of the iron ore company, thus indirectly reducing costs. I think China will do so in the future. The development achievements of China will definitely far exceed those of island countries. By then, the demand for steel will increase several times or even dozens of times. If we do not have our own source of iron ore, we will be stuck in the neck, which is very disadvantageous."

Qiao Ge's words shocked Hu Lin's heart.

If Qiao Ge just said that he was optimistic about the future development of the steel industry, in his opinion, this was just Qiao Ge's inference. He could believe it, but he did not dare to say that the future would be like what Qiao Ge said.

Now that Qiao Ge is talking about the neighboring island countries, this has great reference significance.

Of course, their development is very rapid. Although there have been economic problems due to the Plaza Accord in recent years, they have many overseas layouts, which are worth learning from their own families.

There are various studies in China regarding the economic development experience there, and he is no exception.

"Qiao Ge, are you so optimistic about China's development?" Hu Lin asked.

"Of course." Qiao Ge said with a smile, "How old is the island country? They can develop to this level, why can't you? This size is completely incomparable to them. Once it develops, think about the demand here. It's incomparable. fear."

Hu Lin was silent.

Of course he is confident in the development of the country, but can he really reach that level?

He really didn't have much confidence. After all, the development there was too terrifying to even imagine.

However, even if it cannot be achieved, Qiao Ge is right in saying that with the size of his home here, the demand for various resources will be massive in the future.

If you don’t plan ahead, when the day comes, it will be too late to think about it.

"Qiao Ge, I understand. Thank you for your reminder." Hu Lin said gratefully.

If Qiao Ge can talk to him so much, he really thinks he is a friend.

I really want to report some suggestions about Qiao Ge immediately, and ask the leaders to study them.

Overseas, it is indeed difficult to control your own capital.

But if you do some operations, you should still have a chance if you just want to take a small share.

With these shares, I can’t say how much I can earn, but I can at least hedge risks in the future. (End of chapter)
