With the arrival of many senior executives of Fan's Investment Group, Fan Wubing began to make arrangements, mainly to examine the work performance of senior executives, listen to their next stage work arrangements, and put forward some of their own opinions and guidance from a high-level perspective.

At this time, it is also the time when senior executives feel the most rewarding, because Fan Wubing can point out the work direction and focus on everyone, which can achieve enlightenment.

The focus of this year's work is mainly on the developing industries, that is, the automobile manufacturing industry that has just been initially successful, which was led by Wuzhi Xiaoji. On this issue, Wuzhi Xiaoji put forward the intention of developing hybrid vehicles.

When talking about this issue, Wu Zhi Xiaoji raised a question by the way, "We need a large amount of rare earth elements in our research and development process recently, and I hope Mr. Fan will solve this problem."

"Does it also require rare earths to build cars?" Fan Wubing never knew about this and asked in surprise.

"Of course, Mr. Fan, don't you know?" Wu Zhi was also a little surprised. Unexpectedly, Mr. Fan was also confused.

The large number of rare earth elements in automobiles has begun in recent years.

The application of rare earth elements in automobiles is mainly to make high-performance rare earth magnets. In automobiles, rare earth magnets must be used in places such as motors of electronic power steering systems, engine speed sensors, and wheel speed sensors in the ABS system.

Since the emergence of new energy powered vehicles, the use of rare earth magnets has increased exponentially.

For hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles, miniaturized and high-power drive motors are necessary, and these motors now use a large amount of rare earth magnets.

For example, Toyota is developing a new generation of cars. Now, every one is produced on average. It requires about 20 kilograms of rare earth elements. In the next few years, all hybrid models in Toyota will sell more than one million units.

So, just how much rare earth metal is needed for hybrid vehicles? It can be calculated very simply.

In the near future, hybrid vehicles will become the mainstream of the automobile market. It is a recognized fact. In addition, electric vehicles that also consume a large amount of rare earth metals are also gradually rising.

Therefore, the importance of rare earth resources for the future development of automobile industry has been very obvious. It is no exaggeration to say that rare earth elements play a role in the manufacturing of new energy vehicles. They are comparable to that of oil in the use of fuel vehicles.

After hearing Wu Xiaoji say this, Fan Wubing suddenly felt a little regretful. This time he promised to sell a large amount of rare earths to the Japanese. Isn’t it a bit hasty? He, a reborn man, has a knowledge of the importance of rare earths. He is even worse than Wu Zhi Xiaoji, an ordinary Japanese businessman. It can be seen that there are great loopholes and lack of land in resource education in China.

Although the country has always emphasized that the land is big and the material is vast, but it is actually just that the land is big and the material is thin. The total amount of land is compared with the per capita share. It can be said that the country is poor and has poor resources.

The Chinese people’s problem is that they like to pick up good words and are unwilling to self-destruct their shortcomings. This can be confirmed by folk customs. Every year on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, everyone will buy some sesame candy to worship them, just hope that he will speak good things to heaven and tell the Jade Emperor less unhappy things to avoid the Jade Emperor’s crime.

When Fan Wubing thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little angry, thinking that he needed to formally propose to add these contents in the basic education textbook now? After all, cultivating a generation of young people who have a full understanding of the national conditions can prompt China's awakening more than ten years. This is of great merit. Regarding this matter, Fan Wubing decided to talk to Boss Zhu and Chief No. 1, and should not be ignored.

"Specifically, what types of rare earth elements do we need?" Fan Wubing asked Wu Zhixiaoji.

There are seventeen rare earth elements in total, so there must be one priority. It is impossible to grab the beard and eyebrows at once.

Wu Zhi Xiaoji had a very serious understanding of the specific situation and had very detailed information on hand, so he turned on his laptop and explained the details to Fan Wubing and others.

According to the simple classification of rare earth elements, the representative part is called light rare earth elements, and the representative part is called heavy rare earth elements.

Wuzhi Xiaoji said to everyone, "Generally speaking, the content of heavy rare earths is relatively small and the price is relatively expensive. Specifically speaking of cars, among the high-performance nd-fe-b magnets used now, nd is a light rare earth element. The disadvantage is that it has poor heat resistance and the magnetic retention will be significantly reduced at high temperatures. Therefore, we will add dysprosium to replace part of nd, which can ensure that it is used in a 200-degree environment, which is enough to cope with the working environment in the car."

According to Wuzhi Xiaoji, dyspros is a heavy rare earth element.

The distribution of resources of rare earth elements is very biased towards China, while the distribution of heavy rare earth elements is especially biased towards China. According to the amount of burial

There are still places such as Australia, the United States and other places that can compete, but the burial amount outside of China is minimal.

"Did Japan order the rare earth project with us this time focus on these elements?" Fan Wubing asked the representative who was responsible for rare earth negotiations with the Japanese.

The representative nodded, and he also realized that this time the price was set too low. So he suggested to Fan Wubing, "If it is not cost-effective, just break the contract. Anyway, we have not received the money, and they have not received the goods."

If the contract is broken, a large amount of compensation will be paid, and Fan Wubing doesn't want this.

But if the Japanese got this cheap, he was unhappy, so he began to think about how to make a fake shot and let the Japanese break the contract on their own? This difficulty seemed to be quite great.

The market share of rare earths produced in China can account for about 90% of the international market. The only reason why they can occupy such a large market is because of the cheaper. Because importing rare earths from China is cheaper than those produced in their own country, Australia and the United States, two countries with relatively large rare earth burials, have also closed their own rare earth mines and imported them from China in recent years.

If Fan Wubing suddenly killed him and monopolized more than 80% of domestic rare earth resources, it is estimated that Western countries will continue to do the import of rare earths from China until they snatch all of China's rare earth resources.

As for now, Americans and Australians are a little caught off guard. While negotiating with China to demand the opening of the rare earth market, they are also opening their own rare earth mines one after another to prevent being controlled by others.

For the Japanese who have a high demand for rare earth resources, although China has always advocated Sino-Japanese friendship. However, all the rare earth resources needed by Japan now rely on imports, and more than 90% of them are imported directly from China. Although the rest does not come directly from China, the ultimate source is still China.

Therefore, if you place all the sources of such important resources in China and such a unique country, no matter how friendly China and Japan are, Japan is still worried. But then again, it is precisely because Japan always has this sense of crisis that it can maintain its advanced technology fields such as energy conservation and resource conservation.

In fact, China has always been quite generous. Not only is the export volume of rare earth resources very large, but the price is also quite cheap. Therefore, although Japan often complains that the distribution of rare earth resources is too biased towards China, it is not very dissatisfied.

However, it was not possible after Fan Wubing began to monopolize rare earth resources. Under Fan Wubing's suggestion, the Chinese government began to strictly manage the production and export of rare metals, including rare earth metals, so the Japanese worried that it finally became a reality.

Therefore, they tried every means to use all means to obtain the maximum rare earth resources from the channels that China can export now, such as Shen Peiming's company, the only company with large-scale export capabilities.

Shen Peiming's company has now tightened its exports. When the fact has monopolized the rare earth export resources and a small amount of exports can obtain high returns, Shen Peiming naturally cannot buy rare earths as cabbage, and he is also good at hoarding tricks.

And what makes the Japanese most confused is that most of the companies under Shen Peiming export light rare earth elements, and heavy rare earth mining areas are basically in the hands of Fan Wubing. This is also the reason why they contacted Fan Wubing through Shen Peiming.

Because they investigated clearly, Shen Peiming's daughter is Fan Wubing's fiancée. This relationship needs to be made good use of, and at least one person can pass on the message. But Shen Peiming is not a person who can use it for nothing. In order to pass on this sentence, the Japanese put in a lot of effort and were extorted by the old fox of Shen to get this opportunity.

After Fan Wubing understood these problems, he came up with an idea. Since he had decided to sell some rare earth elements to the Japanese, it would be difficult to change. The only remedy now is to double the price based on the price, so that they can make a good return of blood.

There are obviously many benefits of allowing Japanese people to accept high-priced rare earths. One of the benefits is that their automobile cost will increase a lot. This is also quite good news, especially for Fan's Investment Group, which has entered the automobile market.

Finally, Fan Wubing said to the person in charge of the rare earth project, "Well, that, you said decisively, give them the refund, don't tell them the reason, and we will restart the contact mechanism when they are anxious."

The person in charge nodded and agreed, thinking that Mr. Fan was really decisive and had a countermeasure so soon.
