I hide the white roses behind me

Chapter 147 The Old Fox and the Little Fox ([-])
"Currently, Putuo Shipping currently has no container freighters, nor does it have the qualifications to transport chemicals. The fleet all uses flat-bed freighters, engineering ships, and a small number of small river-sea intermodal bulk carriers for offshore use. The construction of new container freighters takes a long time and requires a large investment. , we cannot afford it.”

How big is the bowl and how much rice is in it? Although he will not reveal the truth at will, but he has to say what needs to be said. Lin Zengxian will not tell lies at this moment.

"Lin Jun is right. When I talked with my cousin before, I heard him say that the cost of shipping is getting higher and higher."

Knowing the situation is the most basic, and it is also necessary not to get hotheaded. Ming Jingyang will not think highly of Lin Zengxian because of what he said, but at least this little fox knows his own measure.

"It's like this. With the [-] TEU super-large freighter put into use, many routes cannot be fully loaded, and the cost is evenly shared by the remaining containers."

Taking out a new large teacup from the tray on the table, Lin Zengxian placed it between himself and Mingjing Yang.

"Jun Lin means that the age of big ships has come?"

Speaking of this point, Ming Jingyang no longer had the intention of competing just now, and followed Lin Zengxian's gesture to look at the big teacup.

"In recent years, container shipping companies have spent heavily to order ultra-large freighters, believing that Asia's consumer goods trade will grow. Alphaliner, a shipping industry data provider, predicts that container shipping capacity will increase by 3.9% next year, while global demand will grow by more than 5.2%. [-]%, as you said, the era of big ships is already before our eyes.”

Putting his hands on the table, Lin Zengxian stretched out his fingers and surrounded the big teacup far away, as if he was about to hold an apple.

"So, they are all planning to set up a shipping alliance, aren't they?"

Mingjing Yang nodded, put his hands on the table in the same way, and made the same gesture as Lin Zengxian.

The cost of input is rising, major companies are ordering ships on a large scale, and expenses continue to increase, so it is currently the best way for everyone to keep warm.

"Yes, after all, the strength of a company is limited after all, but I think it is a very bold decision to build a large-scale transport fleet like Hanjin Shipping."

Putting all ten fingers into the palm of his hand, Lin Zengxian leaned forward slightly, looking directly into Mingjing Yang's eyes.

It has been paved the way for a long time, and now the old fox has finally "taken the bait".

"Hanjin Shipping?"

Facing Lin Zengxian's slightly sharp gaze, Mingjing Yang pondered for a while, leaning his elbows on the table and resting his thumb on his chin, his eyes also subconsciously changed.

The little fox used the subtle word "courage"...

Mingjing Yang's heart skipped a beat, and his gaze became a little bit sharper.

"Hanjin Shipping is still making a profit. Their financial report this year is very impressive. Although the debt ratio is 850%, in recent years, various companies have been ordering freighters on a large scale. The debt ratio of each company is not low. As long as it is profitable, the debt will eventually come. Pay off, does Mr. Lin think there is a big problem with this?"

What Nai Yang said is the current mainstream view, and the industry is basically optimistic about Hanjin Shipping.

However, to ask questions from this point of view, apart from Mingjing Yang's own approval, he also has other thoughts.

As he himself has just stated, he hopes to expand his influence within the family.

So, how can we expand our influence?
There is never a shortage of people who make the icing on the cake, and there are only a few who give charcoal in the timely manner.

Only by turning the tide in a crisis and solving other unsolvable problems can we expand our influence.

At present, MOL is discussing cooperation with Hanjin Shipping. Mingjing Yang knows it, and naturally he will not tell Lin Zengxian.

Now he wants to use Lin Zengxian's words to see if he can get some news about Hanjin Shipping, so as to help the family occupy more interests in the negotiation, so as to improve himself.

On the one hand, he has reservations, and on the other hand, MOL does not have the qualifications for him to intervene, so he will not directly propose the cooperation between MOL and Putuo Shipping.

"There is a saying in our country that everything is in moderation and too much is too much. It means that everything has a limit. If something is overdone, it will be the same as not doing enough. It is inappropriate, just like this pot of tea. If you boil it for too long, it won't taste good."

Stretching out his index finger, he tapped the rim of the big teacup lightly with his fingertips. Lin Zengxian reached out to pick up the teapot and poured tea into the big teacup.

Lin Zengxian didn't stop until the teacup was filled with water. He continued to raise the angle of the teapot, and poured in the tea so that the tea overflowed the cup and spread a large area on the table.

"Jun Lin is right. It seems that there will be great cooperation between us in the future. Nippon Paint's transportation business in your country needs to be taken care of by Mr. Lin."

Nai Yang's expression paused for a short while, and he shifted his gaze towards the big teacup to the opposite side, and laughed aloud twice.

Lin Zengxian's teacup was still full and he didn't take a sip.

After talking so much just now, Ming Jingyang already knew that Lin Zengxian was not a "reckless man", but a real "little fox".

Since this little fox can say that, he probably has some important inside information.

So, at this time, it is necessary to divert the topic appropriately.

I have the ability to cooperate, and you also have the ability to cooperate. You also know inside information. If you want to facilitate cooperation, you can start to draw closer.

"Thank you, Professor Mingjing, for taking care of me. I will definitely offer Libang the most favorable qualification."

The temptations of the two parties are all over here, Lin Zengxian also knows that it is time to get closer to each other, but he still does not drink his cup of tea.

"I hope that in the future, Fuso Paint and Putuo Shipping will have mutual benefits and in-depth cooperation."

Mingjing Yang did not mention Nippon Paint, whose father was the vice president, but Fuso Paint.

Because Nippon Paint is a joint venture between Fuso Paint and Temasek Paint, Fuso Paint is the real representative of famous well forces.

"I will, but I still need to take care of my job as a doctor and learn more about business."

Lin Zengxian put down the teapot, took out several tissues from the paper box, kept half in his hand, and handed the other half to Mingjing Yang.

"I believe Lin Jun will do better than me in this aspect, and can keep the two in a good balance."

Mingjing Yang took the tissue and looked at the little fox with somewhat relieved eyes, with some regret in his tone.

His own path is already obvious. He is completely biased towards medicine and lacks too much in business. He didn't feel anything in the early years, but now he can only feel regretful.

"Thank you for your blessing."

Even if he didn't know Mingjing Nan, Lin Zengxian knew what was going on with the person in front of him, so he followed up with a fluffy sentence and waited to hear the real chapter.

At the door of the kitchen, Mingjing Nan, who had been watching the "live broadcast", looked back at the still slow "chef", and poked his chin with his fingertips.

It should be almost the same, right?
"Mom, I feel like we can get started."

Bowing his head and rolling up his sleeves, Minami Minami was going to fry dumplings after the "live broadcast" was over.

"You know again?"

Ming Jinghai, who "stealed" a slice of ham, staggered his neck back and curled his lips.

My sister has grown up...
