Rebirth of the Financial Overlord

Vol 5 Chapter 165: No. 1 non-ferrous metals

London, England.

The autumn rain fell continuously from the sky, and Fei Fei was continuous and flowing.

Like silk, like silk, like fog, like smoke. It falls on the face and flows into the mouth, sweet and glutinous, like rice wine, like honey, making people like drunkenness, dreams, infatuation, and drunkenness.

Stretch out your hands, the rain falls into your hands as smooth as milk; taste the rain with your mouth, with a hint of sweetness; use your nose to smell the autumn rain, which seems to have a faint fragrance; use your eyes to appreciate the autumn rain, That autumn rain was like a happy dance of elves, falling into the world happily from the sky.

A gust of autumn breeze blew, and the drizzle suddenly became hard, and the dense raindrops slapped on the windows, as if they were composing a cheerful and light music.

It is no longer the sad autumn rain, but full of hope and enthusiasm. Just like life, there is sadness and happiness. The scenery on this road may be bleak and clear, but maybe at the next turning point, you will see a brand-new scenery: misty rain, clouds of smoke, red trails, wild and green fields, hidden warblers in green leaves, swallows across the vermillion curtain...

I don't know how long the wind and rain stopped suddenly.

Sophie Calumet's face is probably rain watered and wind blown, she looks delicate and dizzy, the color is bright, pitiful and heart-warming.

Shen Jiannan couldn't help thinking of a seven-character poem.

When the spring breeze peaches and plum blossoms bloom,

Autumn rain when the phoenix leaves fall.

There are many autumn grasses in Nishinomiya South,

Fallen leaves are full of red without sweeping.

In the rain, the autumn grass rots to death,

Cassia is fresh in color...

"Why look at me like this?"

Shen Jiannan's eyes looked a little uncomfortable, Sophie Came drew a circle on Shen Jiannan's chest and asked with a smile.

"You are really a good sister of Katina."

"But you seem to enjoy it."

"I just want to say, fire prevention, theft prevention, and best friend, this sentence is not fake at all."

"Shen. Are you Orientals so shameless?"

"..."

In the adult world, some things do not require emotion.

But the game between men and women will more or less change the taste due to in-depth communication.

Shen Jiannan never thought about what would happen to Sophie Calumet, even though she has a proud figure and delicate face.

But once happened is an accident, happened twice, it can only be fate.

Who can resist fate?

After some mischief and mutual warmth, Shen Jiannan barefoot went to the bathroom and took a hot bath, wrapped in a towel and walked to the living room.

My throat is a bit dry.

It's like running ten kilometers in summer, it makes people want to drink water.

While wiping his hair, Shen Jiannan picked up the warm water bottle and poured a cup of warm water. As the warm liquid entered his throat, the lost energy and moisture were finally quickly replenished.

Papa--

The sound of leather shoes rubbing against the floor was far and near, and Tang Dunhou's voice was also heard in the clear footsteps.

"Boss. You won't take a break anymore?"

"Monkey. I found that your kid talks more and more."

"Hey. I'm not worried that the lady boss will find that you have lost weight this time."

"Stop talking nonsense. What did Brother Zheng say over there."

"The captain said that the Chiluba government army has no money. They want to use 30% of the Kongkola Copper Mining Company's equity to pay for the reward. But he is worried that these guys will turn their faces and are still considering it. The Dark Night Team has arrived in Zimbabwe. If it goes well, we can send someone over next month."

Shen Jiannan pondered, picked up a cigar on the table and lighted it.

Africa is known as the chosen place of heaven because it is the continent with the richest resources and the richest land in the world.

As the core of Africa, Zambia has the world's largest copper deposit, with copper resources accounting for more than 65 percent of the world. Zimbabwe is even more powerful. As an African granary, the fertile land and economic development here are only one step away from the ranks of developed countries.

1 US dollar=100000000000 Zimbabwean dollar?

Speaking of Zimbabwe, people may immediately think of the shame of human currency.

Tons of banknotes were weighed on wheels, and they were thrown out without anyone stolen.

But in fact, Zimbabwe 90 years ago was a quasi-developed country in Africa second only to South Africa, with per capita income as high as several thousand US dollars. Only food exports can make huge profits from neighboring countries.

The currency value of Jin Yuan is even more expensive than the US dollar. One Zimbabwean dollar is about 1.2 US dollars.

As for why the Zimbabwe dollar depreciated into waste paper.

Uh......

The reason is actually ridiculous. The locals felt that the colonists had robbed them of their wealth, so they took the guns and slaughtered the whites, robbed the farmers of the wealth, declared independence, and implemented the blacks' self-management.

Then...there is no more.

Anyway, Zimbabwean dollars can buy a lot of things at such a value, so you can just print more money to buy things. What a stupid job.

Yes, it is so absurd.

Zimbabwe has just been independent for ten years, but it has taken away the wealth accumulated by the whites for decades and is still in the final prosperity. If you don't pack and sell these guys, then Shen Jiannan is not Shen Jiannan.

However, thinking of this place in Zambia, Shen Jiannan has a headache.

Copper, the largest non-ferrous metal.

In ancient times, it was even defined as gold.

In modern industry, in terms of industrial practical value, it is still more practical than gold.

The development of any modern technology is inseparable from the metal such as copper.

As early as 20 years ago, the country spent countless manpower and material resources, even at the expense of 69 experts, technicians and workers, and helped Zambia build a nearly 2,000-kilometer-long traffic line that runs through East Africa and Central and South Africa to the sea port of Tanzania. Trunk line.

But it is a pity that the investment may not have a return. In less than 20 years, Zambia is now the largest anti-Chinese country in Africa.

Frowning for a long time, Shen Jiannan picked up the phone on the table and dialed out.

"Sora you Jiwa. This is Qiu Shan's house. Who are you looking for?"

An Huimei Tomoko's voice came from the earpiece. Although she could not be seen, Shen Jiannan's complicated heart couldn't help calming down.

"Michiko, it's me."

At the sound of Shen Jiannan's voice, An Hui Michiko's excited call almost fell to the ground. It's been almost half a month since I returned to Japan. This is the first time Shen Jiannan has called her.

"Simi Masai. Qiushan-kun, I didn't know it was you."

"Oh. Michiko, isn't it time to go to class today? Why are you at home."

"I felt a little sick, so I took a day off."

"what happened?"

"No...nothing, just a little bit of discomfort."

Suddenly, Shen Jiannan became suspicious.

Michiko An Hui doesn't lie, hesitates, and knows that he is not telling the truth.

"Michiko. Is it really okay? If you get sick, you have to go for a serious check. I will go back to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow. If Japan is not convenient, I will take you to Hong Kong."

"It's almost done. It's really just a little uncomfortable."

"Really?"

"Actually... it's just that the stomach is a little uncomfortable. Don't always ask, Qiu Shan-kun, it makes people feel embarrassed."

"..."

For this reason, Shen Jiannan is also helpless.

A woman's mind is just like a needle on the bottom of the sea, she has everything, and she is shy with a little bit of things.

After chatting for a while, Shen Jiannan talked about business, An Hui Michiko called An Hui Koji who had been waiting for a long time.

"Father, Qiu Shan-kun has something to tell you."

"Akiyama-san. Good afternoon."

"An Huisang, I am here in the morning."

"Ah. Haha, I'm really sorry, I forgot the jet lag."

"It's ok."

"..."

"Ms. Lu believes that Lucheng in Southern Fujian Province is more suitable for us in terms of geographical location. I also visited last week. Although Lucheng does not have the advantage of Dongguan to Hong Kong, it is more convenient to travel to and from Osaka and Tokyo than Dongguan. It is very suitable. The export of the first department store. However, the location of the project of the First Industrial Co., Ltd. is a bit inconvenient for Ludao."

"I have determined a few locations for the site selection of the Dalian project, but where they are specifically determined. Since you are going back to China, I will go with you to check again when that time comes."

"..."

Listening to An Hui Haoer's report on the work of the Italian market and the China Project, Shen Jiannan nodded in satisfaction.

An Hui Hao'er is very measured, and he has never regarded himself as the old man. Every time he talks about official affairs, he is very serious and cautious. It is completely official. In fact, although Capital One has absolute controlling rights in the First Industrial Co., Ltd., according to the previous agreement, there is no need for An Hui Koji to report back to Shen Jiannan for these matters. He has the right to operate and manage.

At this point, I have to say that Japan’s life in the world is indeed more reassuring and comfortable than nepotism in China.

Of course, Koji An Hye’s ability to work is also unclear. After all, it is a high-achieving student who graduated from the University of Tokyo and has many years of business management experience and some connections. Although the plate of the Daiichi Industrial Co., Ltd. is much larger than before, He also did not appear to be difficult to comply with.

One speaks and the other listens.

After a long time, Shen Jiannan laughed twice: "An Huisang. You can make these things yourself, there is no need to tell me. I am calling this time mainly to ask, have you heard of Binzhong Tainan? people."

"Binzhong Tainan? Oh, you mean the chief trader of Sumitomo Nonferrous Metals Trading Department?"

"An Huisang knows Binzhong Tainan?"

"I saw it at a cocktail party with Kawasaki. It's not too familiar, but Junkishi Okamoto, a trader in our risk control department, was formerly under Yasuo Hamaka's. The relationship is pretty good. What's the matter?"

"There is nothing special. If it is convenient, you can ask this Okamoto-kun to call me. I want him to make an appointment with Haminaka Tainan for me."

Seeing how much Shen Jiannan was unwilling, An Hui Koji wisely did not ask much. When he hung up the phone, he immediately called Okamoto Jungishi.

London.

Shen Jiannan wrapped a bath towel and returned to the bedroom. Sophie Calumet fell asleep, but she kicked the quilt away. Shen Jiannan couldn't help but smile because of her poor sleeping posture.

Bare feet cautiously stepped on the soft cashmere carpet. After making sure that the sleeping person was not awakened, Shen Jiannan gently stopped the quilt and carefully covered it for Caron Mei before turning off the light and walking to the fitting room.

It's not about love.

For people like Shen Jiannan, they never believed in love.

He just felt that as a man, he slept with others and was very happy, so he should do so.

But for Sophie Calumet, who should have fallen asleep, it was a different feeling. In this deceitful world, she first experienced the care from a man other than her father. She was cautious and frightened. His gentleness caused her eyes to shimmer in the night.

How many people admire her young and beautiful face, and how many people are staring at the wealth accumulated by the Karomé family.

But there has never been a man who would neither indulge in her exquisite face, proud figure, and generous net worth.

Thinking of this, Kalongmei showed a weird smile in the night. Since I met Katina when I was a child, they have been entangled with each other. Unexpectedly, even men will continue to fight.

Destiny, I really like to tease people!

Shen Jiannan, who was changing his clothes, didn't know that Kalongmei was pretending to be asleep. He took a set of clothes that Armani had never heard before, looked at himself in the mirror, and slowly **** his tie.

World War I and World War II caused the world to be riddled with holes, and the main roads changed and turned constantly.

Germany’s strength has been consistently ranked at the pinnacle of the world. The level of technology and industry, even in the world, is enough to rank in the top three. Even if the defeated country in World War I compensated a huge amount of war damages, in just a few decades, it had the power to sweep Europe.

why?

From an industrial point of view, it is because Germany has the most advanced military R&D and production capabilities ~www.novelmtl.com~ But from the perspective of military materials, its core source is directly at the first non-ferrous metal-copper.

In World War II, Germany had two younger brothers, one who dared not fight, and the other who dared to fight.

Naturally, the one who dares to fight is Italy, and the one who dares to fight is Japan.

While fighting the Soviet Union, fighting India, fighting Burma, fighting Singapore, fighting the Philippines, fighting Malaya, fighting China at the same time, even fighting the United States.

Its crazy and arrogant and domineering, from an objective point of view, is simply awesome.

But in wars such as wars, they are fighting ammunition and weapons. The reason why Japan has the confidence to go to war with many Asian countries at the same time is because industry has always been on the top.

If we must trace its development trajectory, we can even trace it back to the Tokugawa shogunate era.

In the 16th century, the Sumitomo family grew stronger by opening and operating a copper mine on Shikoku Island, and became the official Japanese copper supplier, mainly serving some of the most powerful Japanese families at the time, including in 1603-1868 The Tokugawa Shogunate ruled Japan for more than two hundred years.

At that time, the head of the Sumitomo family proudly declared that Sumitomo Corporation was the world's largest copper exporter.

Bullets need copper.

Running bullets need copper.

The core motor needs copper.

As we all know, the development of military industry is fundamentally inseparable from copper. This kind of resource, like cotton, is the main strategic material in the development of modern industry.

From a strategic point of view, copper is simply a strategic material that cannot be replaced.
