On the phone, President Fujiwara's voice was timid and humble. Before he began to say anything, he began to apologize one after another.

Wu Tao patiently listened to her say enough sorry, and then slowly got to the point.

It turned out that it was the price of international iron ore raw materials.

Since ninai Fujiwara handed over the traditional business of Mitsui consortium and began to devote herself to the semiconductor industry, the elderly within the consortium began to control the lifeline of the steel industry again. Through the influence of shareholders, they combined with the three major iron ore origin bases in the world and began to manipulate the iron ore price.

As of today, iron ore prices have soared by as much as 20% after three repricing.

Before the last China Sea party, Fujiwara Lina noticed this operation and was worried that Xiao Ruiguang would be struggling, which would affect her relationship with Huaxia Wu, so she gave instructions as president.

However, the old school who tasted the benefits of the rise in the price of iron ore raw materials completely ignored her instructions.

This made Nina Fujiwara realize the seriousness of the matter. Even if she didn't hesitate to break Wu Tao's appointment, she had to rush back to deal with it in person

After hearing the whole story, Wu Tao came to understand.

But there was no news from Xiao Ruiguang. It was probably that he didn't respond much to the rise in iron ore prices.

But even so, Fujiwara's response is commendable.

What's more gratifying is that the old school's agitation was successfully curbed by her.

It can be seen that this beautiful Japanese president has really grown a lot.

So on the phone, Wu Tao quietly responded to Fujiwara's report. On the one hand, he did not give her too much pressure, on the other hand, he expressed enough praise for her behavior without trace.

Hung up the phone of Lina Fujiwara, and the team has entered Beijiang.

Wu Tao recovered and ordered the team to be divided into parts so as not to attract too much attention in his hometown Beijiang.

Then he fell into the thinking of iron ore.

Now, the domestic real estate industry is in the rising period of the first wave of explosive rise. Zhongguang iron and Steel Group under Xiao Ruiguang's name has made a lot of money, so it is naturally insensitive to the price of iron ore raw materials.

In addition, Zhongguang iron and Steel Group has always paid more attention to technology research and development. Its technical advantages also determine that they are less dependent on high-quality iron ore than other domestic iron and steel groups.

After thinking about it for a while, Wu Tao analyzed it himself.

Rao was so calm that he called Xiao Ruiguang.

As soon as the phone was connected, Xiao Ruiguang's hearty laughter came immediately, almost immediately confirming Wu Tao's own judgment.

Otherwise, if he is really troubled by the rise in raw material prices, Xiao Ruiguang may not be able to laugh at all.

After three or two greetings, Wu Tao resolutely got to the point and asked about the rise in raw material prices.

As a result, Xiao Ruiguang patted his thigh, and his voice was a few points higher: "the rise in the price of raw materials has really helped Zhongguang!"

Wu Tao was confused by this.

Xiao Ruiguang's excited voice continued: "when I had abundant funds last year, I imported a large number of high-quality raw materials at one go through the relationship with President Fujiwara. According to the consumption of Zhongguang, it will be enough for at least three years! "

"... therefore, the rise in raw material prices this year has not affected Zhongguang, but helped Zhongguang seize a lot of market share unexpectedly. My staff has just checked, and their performance has directly doubled over last year... "

That's what happened.

No wonder Xiao Ruiguang not only had no response, but also was so happy that he finally remembered to ask Wu Tao about his motivation for making this call.

As a result, Wu Tao took the phone and began to hesitate.

The other party is now in a state of complacency. His advice seems a little out of place.

But at the thought of the impressive event of BHP Billiton, Wu Tao felt it necessary to make ugly remarks.

"Brother Xiao, first of all, I would like to congratulate Zhongguang iron and steel on its major breakthroughs and outstanding achievements in the past year..."

As soon as Wu Tao's tone changed sharply, Xiao Ruiguang, who had been floating all the time, smelled an unusual meaning: "brother, if you have anything to say, tell me, you don't have to beat around the bush."

In this case, Wu Tao's voice was a little louder, "I mean, since most of the domestic high-quality iron ore depends on imports, we can't sit idly by this price rise."

"... because with the rapid development of the domestic real estate industry, the steel industry still experienced several * * rises. By then, there will be more iron ore to be imported. Therefore, if the price of raw materials is raised now, we will only have the right and opportunity to negotiate in the future. "

"... therefore, since Zhongguang group holds a seat for price negotiation, it's best to take this opportunity to make use of it. On the one hand, it can enhance its influence in the domestic steel industry. On the other hand, it must at least make the raw material suppliers afraid. "

"This is to plan ahead." Xiao Ruiguang's face became dignified, and he was even ashamed.

Compared with Wu Tao, his own pattern is lighter after all.

However, Wu Tao's words have not finished yet. "It is precisely because of the sustainable development of the real estate industry that it may become easy for the steel industry to make money in the future. But even so, I suggest that Zhongguang should not forget technology accumulation and reduce technology investment. "

Xiao Ruiguang reorganized his mind and said, "don't worry, brother. This time, Zhongguang tasted the sweetness, just because I listened to your suggestions before. So I'll do what you say. Immediately, I will join hands with domestic steel manufacturers to protest against the rise in raw material prices... "

After chatting with Xiao Ruiguang for a while, the two sides happily ended the call.

I put down my cell phone and looked out of the window. I found that the car had entered the boundary of Binhu lake. Inadvertently, Wu Tao even thought he had come to a new socialist countryside.

The farmland is connected into a piece, all of which are planted on a large scale, together with water conservancy facilities.

The two-way six lane asphalt road is much wider than the ordinary country road. More prominently, there are obviously more cars on the road.

Motorcycles are in an endless stream, mixed with many four-wheel vehicles, so that Wu Tao's two cars are not so prominent except for the brand.

Near the end of Liyuan Village, the scenery has changed again.

From a distance, in addition to his own family and uncle Dai, there are many farmhouses with different themes in the village.

The whole Liyuan Village has become a modern village focusing on the development of farmhouse entertainment.

This was the development situation that had been thinking about stabilizing the country day and night. Unexpectedly, it was realized in Liu minhao's hands.

"It seems uncle Liu did a good job!"

With a simple compliment, Liu Ruoxi was happier than praising herself. Wu Tao looked into his eyes and said with a smile, "you go home and take some gifts from the car. Don't empty your hands."

Speaking of her family affairs, Liu Ruoxi was also a little proud. "It's good for their baby daughter to come back. What else do you want? I'm not getting married and going home... "

Wu Tao was speechless for a moment and immediately waved angrily, "OK, just take it as I brought it to them, OK?"
