In international politics and trade, a conversation between the government of a country and a company of another country often occurred. But in most cases, the government's position and angle were higher than the company's. The so-called conversation is mostly about trade cooperation. But this was the first time a government had submitted to a business for the first time in history.
The main culprit behind the economic depression of the Dongwo was the Dongchen Group, and the Government of Dongwo had been tested by him. They had already seen the reality of the situation. They did not have the ability to resolve such a serious economic crisis and unemployment problem in the country. Only Dong Chen could save the Dongwo at this time. But... The Government of Dongwo was also struggling. Was Dong Chen really willing to do this?
The answer was obviously not willing.
Director Liu conveyed the instructions to Zhang Yunfeng's higher ups. From the words of the higher ups, it could be seen that... Firstly, they did not wish for Dong Chen to stop taking the Dongwo, and secondly, they did not wish to compete for the benefits between Dong Chen and the Dongwo Enterprise. It was because of this that they sent a message to Zhang Yunfeng. They hoped that Zhang Yunfeng could find a way to solve this problem.
Under such circumstances, Zhang Yunfeng naturally could not be the same as before. He simply rejected the request to meet with the Dongwo. Furthermore... The perfect invasion that Director Liu mentioned had given Zhang Yunfeng a new idea. He was willing to "help" the Dongwo solve its current predicament, but he would never do something that would make him lose money. If he wanted to make Dong Chen take a step back in the domain he had set foot in, then he had to make Dong Chen advance in the other domains.
After meeting with Director Liu, Zhang Yunfeng set the time for the meeting with the Government of Dongwo to be in Yanjing three days later. After Director Liu received a definite answer from Zhang Yunfeng, he returned to Yanjing first, while Zhang Yunfeng quickly contacted Su Nuoyan's mother, Nie Minhui.
Nie Minhui was currently in Brazil, discussing the price of a new round of iron ore imported from the freshwater river company. As the Dongwo Enterprise had a large proportion of invisible assets in the iron ore domain of the world, Nie Minhui had a huge headache over the iron ore problem. Mitsui Property, Itinerant Merchant, Resident Friend Financial Group, Mitsubishi Financial Group, these famous large financial groups that held shares or mining rights in the Dongwo industry in Brazil or Australia, more or less. Therefore, these Dongwo consortiums were always secretly promoting the rise of the international iron ore price. On the one hand, the Dongwo Financial Group was secretly pushing the rise of the iron ore price. On the other hand, the Dongwo consortiums were also making concessions to the local steel companies. The final result was that the Dongwo steel company was not affected by the rise of the iron ore. The cost of steel in other countries would be directly affected by the rise of the price of the iron ore. Nie Minhui's Zhongyu Group would be directly affected.
Although during this period of time, the Zhongyu Group had continuously gained a bigger market in the high-end steel industry. However, the core of the steel industry's profits came from ordinary steel. The competition in the ordinary steel market was very intense. The iron ore was directly related to the production cost of the company. Hence, once the iron ore market changed, the steel company would be greatly affected. This time, the Brazilian Vale company wanted to raise the price of the iron ore by 25%. Bi He, Bita, and other companies also responded. This round of negotiations attracted many steel companies from China, Japan, Russia, and many other countries. However, China's steel companies were the most passive because the other countries... The source of the iron ore all had their own invisible assets and shares. Once the iron ore raised the price, the companies that controlled the source of the iron ore would obtain greater profits from it. Under the government's interference, their own steel companies could use all sorts of methods. The cost of secretly offsetting the rising price of the iron ore would increase.
If Mitsui and the other Dongwo financial groups controlled the price of the iron ore to rise, their invisible assets at the source of the iron ore would bring them huge profits worldwide. And they had a very close relationship with New Sun Iron and other companies. In other words, new Sun Train could basically ignore the rise of iron ore prices. At the same time, Mitsui Property and other consortiums earned huge profits. As long as they sacrificed less profits, they could continue to operate the new Ri Train at the same cost.
But this way, the steel industry in China would suffer heavy losses. The cost of steelmaking in China increased, and the price of steel rose. The price of steel exports also rose because of the increase in cost. As a result, they would lose the advantage of competing with foreign companies. Not only steel companies, but the entire industry chain related to steel would also be affected.
China companies had tried many times to get involved in the operation of the source capital of the iron ore. They tried to buy and invest in it. They wanted to increase their control over the source industry. However, the Dongwo Financial Group had tried many times. This caused the beautiful wishes of the China Enterprise to be foiled time and time again. Every time the man-made iron ore rose in price, it would bring a huge blow and loss to the porcelain country's steel companies.
This time, Nie Minhui also hoped to be able to stop or delay the rise of the price of the iron ore through negotiations. However, the negotiations for a few days did not have any results. Many steel companies in the country cursed in anger. However, Brazilian and Australia's iron ore companies did not give any opportunities to porcelain companies. The rise of the price was inevitable.
Hearing Nie Minhui's worries, Zhang Yunfeng smiled and said, "Auntie Nie, you should prepare to return to the country tomorrow. Three days later, Dong Chen will directly talk to the Government of Dongwo in Yanjing. This time, I will help you solve this problem once and for all. "
"How?" Nie Minhui asked in surprise, "The Government of Dongwo is definitely not here to discuss the problem of the iron ore with Dong Chen. You have been dealing a direct blow to the Dongwo economy. I'm afraid that they have already hated you to the core."
Zhang Yunfeng smiled and said, "This time, we have to change the plan. I have a rough idea. Let's discuss it in person when you come back."
Nie Minhui also agreed and said, "There is no longer any meaning here. The chiefs of several state-owned steel companies in the country are also preparing to return home. I will go back tonight. Yanjing time will arrive tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay." Zhang Yunfeng said, saying, "Then I will fly to Yanjing tomorrow afternoon. Let's meet in the manor and discuss it in detail."
The next day, Zhang Yunfeng flew from Zhonghai to Yanjing. The Government of Dongwo had received a clear reply from the government of the porcelain country. Dong Chen was willing to meet with the Government of Dongwo face to face, and the time was set to be two days later.
The Government of Dongwo was planning to send a professional government economic team to negotiate with Dong Chen, and to keep a low profile about the meeting between the Government of Dongwo and Dong Chen. However, Dong Chen did not give the Government of Dongwo a chance to keep a low profile. Zhang Yunfeng had just landed in Yanjing, so he immediately called Long Xiaoyue to make a public statement about this matter. He directly placed the Government of Dongwo in an awkward position where it was impossible to back down.
All the media in the world reported on this, and the content was almost the same. That was, the Government of Dongwo tried to find a way to break out of the depression and crisis of the Dongwo's economy, but after the 100 billion USD rescue failed, the Government of Dongwo could only place its hope on Dong Chen. Yesterday, dong Chen had officially agreed to the Government of Dongwo's request for a meeting. Both parties would be meeting in two days. It was rare to have a meeting in the Yanjing. A conversation between a government and a private enterprise. Without even guessing, it was obvious that Government of Dongwo had given in to the Dongchen Group. He asked Dong Chen to stop the economic blow on the Dongwo, or in other words, choose to cooperate to solve the financial problem of the Dongwo that was becoming more and more severe.
The Government of Dongwo felt very angry and annoyed at Dong Chen's noisy voice. They wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible. However, Dong Chen's big mouth directly exposed the matter of the meeting between the two parties. This caused the Government of Dongwo to lose all its face in the world. Think about it, which country would give in to a company? Perhaps this was the first time the Dongwo had done so.
Although the Government of Dongwo was very angry at Dong Chen's actions, the truth was that they had no choice but to brace themselves and continue to prepare for the negotiation plan in Hua in two days. Furthermore, in order to truly solve the problem, the Government of Dongwo had sent out a team this time. It was led by the Minister of the Economic Industry, Kaieda Banli. The team consisted of more than ten important members and economists of the Economic Industry Province. There were also many leaders of the Japanese Enterprise in Toyota, Toyota, Japanese, Matsushita, Sony and Jianeng. It could be said that the scale of the team was huge. It was comparable to an economic visit between two countries.
At the same time, Zhang Yunfeng met Nie Minhui in the manor. He tried to make an exchange with Donghu this time. One of the reasons was that it had a lot to do with Nie Minhui.
Nie Minhui did not know what Zhang Yunfeng's intention was, so when they met, she impatiently asked, "Yunfeng, what plans do you have for the meeting with the Government of Dongwo representative two days later?"
Zhang Yunfeng smiled and said, "Auntie Nie, this is also the reason why I asked you to return to the country in a hurry." As he spoke, Zhang Yunfeng said, "The Government of Dongwo can no longer hold on anymore. The trillion-dollar economy has suffered a peak-level blow. Millions of people have lost their jobs, and they are powerless to reverse the situation. Now, the only one who can solve the problem is Dong Chen. Since they want Dong Chen to help them, they must pay a certain price. I have two conditions. One is to ask the Dongwo Enterprise and the consortium to move all their property and shares in the iron ore Domain. Dong Chen will take everything. The other is that Dong Chen wants to buy all the businesses that are difficult to continue with the Dongwo. And I will only give 50% of the market value. "
Nie Minhui said with some doubt, "Sanjing Property, Itinerant Commercial Affairs, Resident Friends Financial Group, Mitsubishi Financial Group, and other companies and consortiums. It is very difficult for Government of Dongwo to directly interfere with them. It is impossible for them to be willing to transfer their rights in the iron ore industry to Dong Chen. Furthermore, using such a low price to buy their company was no different from taking advantage of the situation. How can they accept it? "
Zhang Yunfeng smiled and said, "The biggest temptation I can give them is a job. Just this alone can make them make many concessions and sacrifices."
As he spoke, Zhang Yunfeng explained," Take Toyota for example. Toyota has over 150,000 employees in the land of Dongwo. But now there are less than 20,000 employees left. In other words, they lost 130,000 jobs in Dongwo alone. This does not include the jobs lost by the suppliers in Toyota's entire industry chain. In total, there were more than 200,000 jobs left. Toyota was dead. The industry chain attached to Toyota was also dead. If Dong Chen bought Toyota with all his funds, then, he could convert Toyota into a production base for Dong Chen. Then, he could make up for the two hundred thousand jobs that were missing in Dongwo. Looking at the current economic situation in Dongwo, they wanted to provide 200,000 jobs. It would require 100 billion USD of investment, but as long as Dong Chen was willing to transfer a certain amount of orders to Toyota Factory for production. These 200,000 jobs could be immediately restored, and so did the other companies. If I am willing to let Sony, Songxia, and Jianeng companies work for Dong Chen, then the hundreds of thousands of jobs that they have lost will be reinstated immediately. If Government of Dongwo agrees to my request, I can reinstate 1 million jobs for them. "
Nie Minhui thought for a moment and suddenly realized something. "You bought all these companies with full capital and then restarted their production in Dongwo. To Government of Dongwo, the biggest advantage is that their jobs are recovered. Once their employment positions are restored, the economic pressure in the country will be greatly reduced. Even if their companies suffer heavy losses, their livelihood will still be guaranteed. "
"Right." Zhang Yunfeng nodded and said, "If I provide one million jobs, it will be enough to let Government of Dongwo heave a sigh of relief. However, these one million jobs were not given for free. I will buy all their companies, and these one million jobs will belong to Dong Chen. If I let them work, they will create benefits for Dong Chen. I also have the absolute initiative to let them work at any time. The initiative is in my hands. "
Nie Minhui could not help but ask, "Then do you think they will agree to your first condition?"
"Yes." Zhang Yunfeng replied without thinking, "Although the process of making a decision will make them feel incomparably painful, I believe that they will care about the overall situation. I will definitely agree. This way, Dong Chen will gradually transform the Dongwo into a proxy base. Give them the lowest profit and let them work for Dong Chen. In the beginning, it would be one million people, but in the future, it might be millions of people. Moreover, in the automotive and electronics industry, only Dong Chen's products could survive in the market. Therefore, in the whole world, only Dong Chen could give a few million unemployed people a way out. Other than Dong Chen, no one else could do this. Imagine if there were millions of people working for Dong Chen and relying on him to survive. It's only a matter of time before they are assimilated by Dong Chen. "
