Chapter 788 Cooperation at the dinner table
Long Jianhua called a buffet and sat with Carlson, and started chatting while eating.
Before Long Jianhua could ask, Carlson told him why he had arrived in Nairobi today.
He went to Lagos to negotiate a contract. After the talks, his companions returned to South Africa. He only brought a bodyguard to play with the Sukulu cultural landscape, and then came here for a meeting. He also had to meet an upcoming old friend who was very good at researching water treatment equipment.
When he heard the man's name, Haner, Long Jianhua nodded. He was familiar with the name. The American scientist Teslie is indeed a famous water treatment expert in the world.
Tesere's expertise lies in sewage treatment, while Chongshi Institute only conducts seawater desalination in water treatment; the reason for this research is actually paving the way for tidal power generation.
Long Jianhua used to eat very fast, but today he chatted with him and unconsciously slowed down his speed and learned about the mining and processing of vermiculite and the use of it.
Carlson was extremely excited to be able to eat at the same table as the richest man in the world, even on the same list; he could speak everything, and he could explain some specific details clearly.
What surprised him was that the richest man in the world could ask some questions, which he took for granted in production and operation; but after he asked this question, he immediately explained some solutions, which made him suddenly realize.
After almost the same talk, Carlson smiled and said, "If someone who doesn't know the two of us see it, he will definitely think that Mr. Long is an expert, and I am just a fledgling man."
Long Jianhua smiled and said, "I just stood on the shoulders of a giant and saw a little further, and you are that giant. There is an old saying in China, "The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear." There is another saying, "The layman watches the excitement, the expert watches the tricks." I am just a bystander watching the excitement."
Carlson took the opportunity to ask, "Mr. Long, are you interested in investing in vermiculite?"
He did not talk about cooperation between the two parties, but asked him if he was interested in investing. This was both a test and a statement that brought the relationship closer.
Long Jianhua nodded, "Vermiculite does have a wide range of uses, and I am not afraid of competition, but its use is still relatively single now; if I want to intervene, I have to develop more uses."
Instead, he asked, "Mr. Carlson has a deep research on vermiculite, and I don't know if he has paid attention to other minerals. If he is interested, we can cooperate."
South Africa has many mineral reserves in the world, and second. Since it has entered the mining industry, it will naturally not only focus on vermiculite.
The mining company has been established for more than three years. Although it has achieved a lot of results, the ones that pay attention to are iron ore and copper ore, so it has been wandering around Australia, Asia and America, and has not turned its attention here yet. It was because of his reason that he devoted his energy to Africa for the first time.
Carlson now wants to cooperate with him and is afraid to cooperate with him. He is the richest man in the world and has a giant like Chongshi Group. The strength of both sides is completely unequal; if it is not done well, he will be swallowed alive by others, and there will be no hair left.
He was confused for a while and asked, "Mr. Long, I am a native South African. Although I own a vermiculite processing company, I have friends from all kinds of mines. If I need it, I can still find some capable people. I just don't know how we can cooperate."
Looking at his entangled appearance, Long Jianhua knew what he was taboo and said lightly, "We two set up joint-stock companies, we account for 80% and you account for 20%. The joint-stock companies focus on mining and processing of minerals such as gold, antimony, and phosphate."
He doesn't want to eat the place dry and squeeze it all, but just wants to take advantage of the other party's identity as a local snake. Those who can enter the top 100 rich people in the world will have a certain impact on the local area.
The fact that making vermiculite alone can achieve a net asset of over 100 million US dollars and it has a steady growth shows that its actions are stable; by himself, he personally went to two shipyards to promote vermiculite slabs, it shows that he has a good idea in marketing.
A boss personally sells products, which will give the negotiating opponent an irresistible satisfaction, and the probability of a transaction being reached will first increase by 30%.
As a bigger boss, his advantages in this regard are more obvious.
After hearing this, Carlson immediately agreed and "deal."
He originally thought Long Jianhua would make a fuss about his company, but he was thinking about how to bargain, but he didn't expect that they didn't think that they had the intention at all. He didn't participate in the company they founded.
If he just set up a company, he would still want to win higher shares; now he has proposed three at once, and he has only this strength and cannot afford more funds.
Long Jianhua reached out to him, "Happy cooperation."
Carlson laughed, "Happy cooperation."
This is just a cooperation framework, which can be solved by Long Jianhua and Carlson on the dining table, so there is no need to bother others.
After Long Jianhua expressed his thoughts on the company's future, Carlson was so excited that he shouted in his heart: I made a profit, and I made a fortune!
The two companies first set up a group company. The three projects mentioned just now are branches. There is no dividend distribution in the first three years of profit generation, and then they use these profits and bank loans to expand horizontally and vertically.
He also understood why Long Jianhua didn't intervene in his business, leaving him a piece of private land to ensure that he can live a normal life as a rich man in the next three years and not fall from the list of rich man.
Long Jianhua wanted to divide his troops and cover the world of mining as soon as possible.
It is true that Li Guanghai's progress is good, but the goal is too big and it can easily attract others' attention. With Carlson's participation, whether in Africa, Australia or South America, his results are better than Li Guanghai.
The next day, Li Guanghai's team, who stayed in Nigriya, came to Nairobi and implemented details with Carlson. In this company, Li Guanghai is the chairman and Carlson is the general manager, and it is all decided by Long Jianhua.
The facts were developed at the pace of Long Jianhua. Twelve years later, the profit generated by this group reached 10% of the profits of Chongshi Group, becoming the world's third largest gold company, and its own refined factory. It is also the largest phosphate product provider, the largest lithium product supplier, the second largest antimony product provider... There are also twelve other ore processing products in the top five in the world, and the types of ore processing products provided reach 26.
A long time later...
Li Guanghai recalled this cooperation and smiled, "At that time, I was inspecting a phosphate mine in Nigriya. I was called to Nairobi by President Long and found that they had already talked about a rigorous framework and just waited to fill in some details. Unexpectedly, Mr. Carlson was actually a buried mining management expert and was discovered by President Long. President Long's vision..."
Liu Haoyu smiled and said, "I didn't expect that a misunderstanding could make the group accelerate its development again. Many coincidences are created, and many coincidences are really just coincidences; no matter which coincidence, they may produce unexpected results."
Carlson, who is already the fifteenth place in the world's rich list, said excitedly, "All this is a coincidence. If I hadn't gone to Nairobi to find a bargain, I wouldn't have known Mr. Long, I wouldn't have eaten at the same table with him, and I wouldn't have jumped up quickly later... This was also a big bargain..."
