Return to the exciting era of 1999

Chapter 2223 The First Export Energy Project

Brent alone has energy transactions worth hundreds of millions of yuan every day. Is it blocked?
As for several countries in South Asia, they are also conducting transactions at this time. The agreed US dollar settlement is not working. How is this done?
Instead of watching others get rich, Ji Donglai would be a fool not to get involved.

Just like that, Lu Jinqiu and Ji Donglai didn't even discuss their salary and directly joined Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing. Their status was the same as Hu Xinyu's. The difference was that Hu Xinyu sold most of her European business.

Hu Xinyu was still in charge of the bank matters for the time being, and after Lu Jinqiu sobered up, he went directly to St. Petersburg.

Ji Donglai was basically no longer worried about Lu Jinqiu's matter. He spent the rest of his time focusing on energy projects. Especially the three-party negotiations involved now. Unlike the previous concessions, this time Jiang Haokun was almost going all out.

No matter what conditions the European delegation put forward, as long as they were unreasonable, Jiang Haokun would reject them all without any room for compromise.

"Mr. Jiang, if you continue to negotiate like this, there is no need for us to continue. Business negotiations are based on mutual concessions. Your country emphasizes mutual benefit. We think what you said is right. You are not in that attitude now. We are confused now."

During the second round of negotiations which lasted for nine consecutive days, Jiang Haokun hardly gave in, which made the group very angry.

The leading white man lit a cigar and looked at Jiang Haokun with fierce eyes.

"Then let's not talk about it. You have no hope of making it a success anyway. Don't treat me like a fool! If we really want to make it a success, this is your attitude? You keep saying this and that! You even dictate what clothes our employees wear, what they eat and drink, and how many times they need to go to the bathroom, and you keep complaining endlessly!"

"When your mother gave birth to you, she told you that you could only poop once a day. If you poop more than once, you should plug your butt. We are human beings. If the engineering team goes to do the project, we should be treated like human beings, not like machines!"

"From the first contact until now, we have been giving in to you. Damn, you guys are still not done! Let me tell you, this is our attitude at Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing. If you don't buy our technology, the world is so big, there are plenty of places to sell it. Who do you think you are? Do you really think you can control the world?"

"Remember, our original plan remains unchanged. If we are needed for the construction, we will do it. If we are not needed, we will not sell the project to you! We have really spoiled your bad habits. When we bought your machine tools, you were so arrogant. You just sprayed a coat on the old machine tools and sold them to us at the price of a new one. Now I tell you, that era is over. If you don't want to talk, get out of here!"

Faced with a group of arrogant foreigners, this time Jiang Haokun directly cursed his ancestors.

The group of foreigners opposite frowned. In the hypocritical civilization of Christianity, only masters could curse their servants in such an endless manner.

During this negotiation, the inherent idea of ​​these foreigners was that white was the main thing and the rest were just hard laborers.

Including Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing, which has absolute technological advantages, previous negotiations were like this: Chinese companies made continuous concessions and let these foreigners make money comfortably.

I didn't expect Jiang Haokun's reaction this time to be so intense, which was completely different from the first negotiation.

"Mr. Jiang, you should know who you are talking to! If we don't buy your technology, you won't be able to sell it in any country in the world. That's what we say!"

The leading foreigner blew out a smoke ring and stared at Jiang Haokun coldly.

"Haha, you are the ones who should recognize the situation. You all know who is the most in debt in the world! Without cheap electricity, you want to easily maintain your affluent life. You don't even have the qualifications to charge your mobile phone!"

"Don't be so nagging. If you want to talk, take a serious attitude and go back to think about it. We didn't reach any agreement this time. If you still come to negotiate with the same attitude next time, then don't come. We have our own bottom line, which no one can break, no matter who it is. Have I made it clear enough?"

With a threatening gaze passing across everyone's face, Jiang Haokun spoke in a very domineering tone.

At this time, the group of people on the opposite side can only be angry, as for the others?
Just like that, Jiang Haokun left the venue amid a group of people's complicated gazes, got into his luxury car, and the motorcade immediately set off for the airport and flew directly to Dubai.

"Kill him and make Yiyuan Zhizao wake up!"

A white woman stood up and her eyes began to cool.

"Give up this idea. What era do you think this is? That way we will completely lose our right to negotiate with others. Ji Donglai has an even worse temper than this guy."

The leader was very conflicted at this time. Did he want to kill Jiang Haokun? The other party wanted to do it from the bottom of his heart, but could he do it? No!
The lies of environmentalism have been repeated in Europe for half a century. There is a Western proverb: A lie repeated a thousand times becomes the truth, and this is the case now.

It is difficult for the entire West to build anything under the blessing of "environmental protection".

Nuclear power plants cannot be built now. Wind power and photovoltaic power are gradually disappearing from the historical stage because they will disrupt the lives of birds. Hydropower is also being dismantled.

The lies that have been repeated for decades have made the people believe them without a doubt, leaving all kinds of messes for the current group of people, who now can't wait to drag out the former masters and whip their corpses.

The cheapest electricity model at the moment is Ji Donglai's space power generation project. Except for the relatively high basic cost, the rest of the project conforms to the lies that Europeans have set for themselves. Once this model is set up in Europe, the whole of Europe will undergo a new industrial revolution, and all energy giants will bow down to it. Now? The whole of Europe is worried about energy, and a group of energy giants are tyrannical.

"What should we do now?"

People had already started to get up and leave, and another white man lit a cigar and walked up to the leader.

"Let's continue the meeting to discuss whether we can reach a more stable solution. The people from Yiyuan Zhizao are not easy to mess with. We need to know that we need some skills to deal with them."

No one has lost their backbone. After all, winter is getting closer and closer. If the entire project cannot be acquired before then, Europe will experience a winter of high prices this year and next year.

The price of oil and gas from America is nearly twice that of Russia, and it is still not enough.

As for summer?

Many Europeans can die of heatstroke. No European can endure a summer without air conditioning, especially in southern Europe!

While the Europeans were still "planning", Ji Donglai's motorcade had already appeared in Harat, where a group of tall Middle Eastern men in suits and ties were waiting in line.

"Hello, Mr. Ji Donglai, nice to meet you, long time no see!"

The leader was none other than Ali, Ji Donglai's old friend who had frequent contact with him in the past! Some sources said he was Indian, then Canadian, and some said he was American. Now? Ji Donglai had no way of judging.

"Mr. Ji, let's get straight to the point. We want to build a large steel plant here to carry out primary smelting of iron ore, and then wait until the railway here is completed, and then the steel ingots will go south along the railway."

"We need a lot of electricity here. We want to know whether your electricity can meet the production capacity needs of our steel plant. What we need is long-term and stable electricity, not the kind that causes power outages during production."

"At the same time, our ironworks near the Afghan border also needs a lot of electricity. It's not far from here. We hope you can pull a line for us to connect to the grid and generate electricity there. As for the price, no problem!"

Ali spoke English the whole time. Looking at Ji Donglai and then at the other group of Westerners with Middle Eastern faces, Ji Donglai finally understood.

Think about the large iron mine here, the smuggling of refined oil around, and this large railway line, and it's a good plan.

"Give me the capacity data. I'm talking about the actual capacity, not the theoretical or possible capacity you mentioned!"

Without saying a single word, Ji Donglai stretched out his hand to Ali, and Ali looked at the bearded man beside him.

The other party hesitated for a moment and took out a document. Ji Donglai took it, looked at the first page, and then quickly flipped through it.

"Impossible! Your report is fake. I want real data!"

After just a glance, Ji Donglai threw it back to the other party.

"We can achieve an output of 78 million tons. Last year, our factory achieved the annual output, which is well documented. We also exported some of it."

"We need to expand production in the next few years because our country is in great need of the steel industry, so we are confident that we can reach 380 million tons!"

The bearded man looked at Ji Donglai and threw the report back, and his face immediately showed displeasure.

This time Ji Donglai directly stopped it and looked at Ali.

"You'd better take a look at your report. It says the output is 380 million tons per month, not per year! China's steel output is 1.39 billion tons per year, which is well documented on the Internet. Your output is a mystery to the world, so if you want to cooperate with us, you have to be more serious in your work."

"We only work with highly efficient teams, not sloppy teams. Before we start working with you, we need to know whether we can effectively meet your production requirements. If we can, we will be very happy. If not, we will make a breakthrough."

"You produce 1000 million tons per month, which consumes a huge amount of electricity. With China's advanced steelmaking technology, the electricity consumption of one ton of ordinary carbon steel is between 2000 and 2000 kWh. You must be producing more than kWh per ton of steel, which is determined by your technology."

"Your total electricity consumption is 950000000000 billion kWh per year, which averages out to nearly 8000 billion kWh per month! Such a number is absolutely impossible."
