Chapter 306 The reality that must be accepted(2/2)
The Catero Steel Plant project was inevitably discussed at the dinner. Zhang Chaoyang wanted to have a broader understanding of the opinions of Draculamo's Chinese businessmen, and the opinions of the consulate were also more important.
Huang Hebin and Lu Yan did not mean to cause trouble this time. They talked about their many opinions on the project in a clear and logical manner, and they were basically positive.
Of course, Cao Mo knew their thoughts very well.
When Shen Ji accompanied Zhang Chaoyang to Draculamore, he stayed at Draculamore for a day and met with officials from the consulate and China Civil Engineering Construction. At that time, Lu Yan and Huang Hebin pretended to be deaf and did not show up, knowing that they were frightened. They were angry and didn’t want to see them good, but more than half a month had passed. Even if Lu Yan, Huang Hebin and the others were still angry, Lu Jianchao and Cao Mo had never had a chance to meet Lu Jiancheng. They must have figured out that New Steel United invested in Catero Steel. The factory will benefit Taihua without any harm.
Therefore, they are not worried that Lu Yan and Huang Hebin will cause trouble.
The main reason is that the Chinese businessmen in Kanem are too weak and they need to stay together as a team so that they can face the changes in the political situation in Kanem more easily.
If New Steel Union can take over the Catero Steel Plant project, and then develop more high-quality steel processing projects around the Catero Steel Plant, and even invest heavily in the Mamba Iron Mine, it will greatly strengthen the influence of Chinese business capital in West Africa.
How could Taihua refuse this situation?
Another thing is that Taihua's influence on New Steel Union is equal to that of Dongsheng. Both parties hold 4-5% of the shares of New Steel Union. Cao Mo's influence on New Steel Union is still two layers away. , much smaller.
If New Steel Union really could win the Catero Steel Plant project, Lu Yan and his friends would have a stronger interaction with New Steel Union in Kanem than he did. What reason does Taihua have to oppose New Steel Union's entry into Kanem?
Cao Mo had previously thought that Lu Yan and Huang Hebin had lingering resentments in their hearts, and even if they would not cause trouble, they would not publicly express anything. However, he did not expect that Lu Yan and Huang Hebin would organize the dinner and publicly express their stance.
Cao Mo didn't know whether this was decided by Lu Jianchao or Lu Jiancheng, but both of them showed that the Lu family could bend and stretch, and it was more difficult than imagined.
Of course, this matter is also very beneficial to Cao Mo and the others.
Together, Dongsheng and Taihua only hold 9% of the shares of New Steel Union, which may not have much influence on New Steel Union's fundamental decision-making, but to make a statement on a project of the scale of Catero Steel Plant, I believe that There will be no more resistance, it can even be said to be a foregone conclusion.
Zhang Chaoyang's attitude was completely relaxed at this time, and his tone was not as tight as the previous few days. He asked Cao Mo at the dinner table:
"If New Steel Union finally makes the decision to invest in the Catero Steel Plant project, I will also recommend the board of directors to inject capital into the Gulf of Guinea Shipping Company and Mining Investment Company. I wonder what Mr. Cao's opinion is?"
New Steel Union's investment in the Catero Steel Plant project must purchase iron ore from the Mangba Iron Mine in order to ensure a clear profit prospect. The Gulf of Guinea Shipping Company and the Gulf of Guinea Mining Investment and Trading Company actually control the Catero Steel Plant. Upstream raw material supply for the project.
New Steel Union does not expect to completely control the supply of upstream raw materials, but it is appropriate to inject capital and hold a certain amount of shares to ensure a certain influence in the raw material supply channels, so that the entire project will be more secure.
Cao Mo spread his hands and said there was no problem at all.
He was too late to welcome me, so how could he refuse?
With the capital injection from New Steel Union, he can withdraw the part of his capital that was occupied by mining investment and trade in the Gulf of Guinea and use it to speed up the construction of the Usan River copper and gold mine.
This scene made Lu Yan feel even more depressed.
When Cao Mo roped in Brahm to invest in the Gulf of Guinea Shipping Company, he still considered Garon Targaryen's identity in order to get into the situation in Akwa as quickly as possible and close the relationship with the Democracy Promotion Front. They also took over the 30,000-ton ore ship from Xie Sipeng.
After smashing Ufo Bonya's coup attempt, they established the Gulf of Guinea Mining Investment and Trading Company and obtained coal and iron supply contracts totaling millions of tons from Akwa. This was Cao Mo and his group's most direct involvement in Akwa's political situation. s return.
As for Cao Mo, Shen Ji and the others, in wooing the New Steel Union to invest in the Catero Steel Plant project, they only wanted to continuously supply the coal and iron obtained from Akwa to the Catero Steel Plant and realize stable profits.
