Chapter 260 Investing in South Africa

South Africa is the most developed country in Africa. Although there is still some gap with other developed countries in the world, for the African country where it is located, the citizens already have a very high standard of living.Moreover, South Africa's economy is relatively stable, and its major industries in finance, law, communications, energy and transportation are also relatively developed. It has a complete hardware infrastructure and a stock trading market, and its gold and diamond production ranks first in the world. throne.

In a country with stable economy and political stability, its industry will also develop rapidly. In fact, the factories of many enterprises have production lines in South Africa, and the products they produce supply most countries in Africa. In addition, the salary in South Africa is relatively low compared to the local countries. It is quite cheap, especially the salary of black South Africans is only half of that of local whites, which is quite attractive for many industrial enterprises.

However, the various conglomerates owned by Ji Feng did not come here to take advantage of it completely. Ji Feng has always believed that only a win-win situation can last for a long time, and eating alone is the most hated thing.

Jacob attached great importance to Ji Feng's arrival, and held a grand welcome banquet that night. The senior officials of the South African government and the leaders of various famous enterprise groups were invited to join in the reception of Ji Feng, the titular world leader. richest man.

Someone once did a calculation for Jifeng. Although last year Jifeng's personal net income was more than 1000 billion yuan, close to 2000 billion US dollars, no one can calculate the fixed assets he owns, especially with this year's With the newly added islands, sea areas and investment in various places, Jifeng's actual assets definitely exceed trillions of dollars.

The most important thing is Jifeng's exclusive wireless power technology.With the opening of Jeju Island for formal application, it has been favored by countries all over the world. All countries have sent people to Jeju Energy Co., Ltd. to prove the huge advantages of this technology. Electricity no longer needs to be bound by cables. , within a radius of 500 square kilometers, you can access it at any location, which is a huge temptation for mountainous, hilly and relatively uneven terrain, and even plain areas.At least everyone no longer has to worry about laying electricity bills.

Although South Africa's energy industry is considered developed for Africa, there is still a huge gap for truly developed countries.

Especially as there are more and more industrial enterprises in South Africa and the depth of each mine is getting deeper and deeper, the difficulty of laying electricity bills in mountainous South Africa is unimaginable, especially as the demand for electricity is increasing The issue of energy has to be placed on the agenda of the South African government.

South Africa is struggling with how to implement a new energy strategy.High attention has been paid to the radio station on Jeju Island from the very beginning. After the initial test passed, the South African government wanted to introduce this system to South Africa, and the blockade of the northern Philippines by the Jeju Island fleet is firm in this idea. The most fundamental reason.

Of course, this is also the reason why other countries must introduce wireless power systems, regardless of any new technology applications.The first thing that countries think of is the application in military and national defense.The warships, aircraft, armored vehicles, and tanks that never need to stop are obviously too tempting to all countries.

South Africa is the most economically and politically stable country in Africa.But they also face a lot of threats. There are too many gunmen in South Africa, and a group of militants can easily be gathered. Although the threat to South Africa from neighboring countries is not too great, it is not absolute. South Africa must seize the opportunity of the first wireless power development, so that it can be transformed for the South African power industry.At the same time, it can greatly strengthen the national defense and military strength.

At this point, all countries with a brain have seen a new way of warfare in the future through the Jeju Island Fleet.Even the United States wants to delay the delivery of the remaining littoral combat ships.

The dinner went smoothly. As a world-renowned rich man, Ji Feng highly appreciated the South African government’s invitation to invest in him. He also said that it would bring more economic, trade and financial cooperation between Jeju Island and South Africa. Get off to a good start.

Similarly, South African President Jacob also extended a warm welcome to Jifeng's arrival, and expressed his full confidence in Jifeng's investment in various industries in South Africa. Finally, he said that Jeju Island is the most popular investment consortium in all countries. South Africa can invite the Jeju consortium to invest in South Africa, which will greatly improve South Africa's economy.

"What is the total amount of investment in South Africa?" After the dinner, Ji Feng arranged to hold a meeting in the state guesthouse to hear the progress of all parties' recent achievements in South Africa. The other 100 people from Jeju Island also all asked Lived here for nearly half a month.

Zhao Yu took out a calculator and immediately added the figures of each group, and immediately replied: "A total of 1380 billion Jiyuan needs to be invested."

This number is relatively small compared to the United Kingdom, but for South Africa, it has indeed exceeded its national fiscal revenue for several years, which is equivalent to one-third of South Africa's total GDP for a year. It is no wonder that South Africa is like this It is necessary to know that the actual investment in foreign investment last year was only 117 billion US dollars, and the investment figure of Jifeng is at least the sum of its foreign investment in more than ten years.

Ji Feng, who was flipping through the investment briefings of various groups, nodded slightly, raised a plan in his hand, and said to a middle-aged white man with a nervous expression: "Lawrence, your plan is not bold enough, South Africa The infrastructure, construction and real estate industries will all be important economic growth points in the future. However, it is still too one-sided to focus on the real estate industry, and infrastructure and construction will also be the focus of our investment in South Africa."

"Everyone, South Africa is the most economically stable country in Africa. I know what everyone is worried about, but you must see that after we enter this market, South Africa or Africa will open a door for us to a bigger market. the gates of wealth."

"With our support, coupled with the needs of other African countries for South Africa, South Africa's future economic and political stability will be durable, so we don't have to worry about not being able to recover the investment. Although this payback period will be slow and long Yes, but we are here to make long-term investments. So we have to take a long-term view of ourselves, ten years, 20 years or even 50 years.”

"Everyone should not always focus on the energy group. The model of the energy group cannot be replicated. The wireless power patent and technology will bring us unlimited funds in the future, and it will be an excellent project for long-term benefits. But we must also see that other group companies have their own advantages, such as the reorganized Jeju Real Estate Group, Lawrence has a keen business vision, but needs to take a bigger step.”

"Another example is Jeju Media Group. Our Jeju Island TV station has covered more than one-third of the world's population, and it is expected to reach one-half of the world's population by the end of this year. Is this a rather remarkable number? Cultural export has a great role in promoting, and it will be of great help for us to promote new technologies in TV in the future."

"There are also Jeju Air Group and Jeju Shipping Group, relying on our advanced aircraft technology. In the future, we will have our own aircraft manufacturing plant, and this calculation I plan to place under the Aviation Group, so that it has the full control over everything from design to manufacturing to operation." One-stop service, and our new passenger aircraft will fly between continents with greater advantages. The same is true for shipping groups. We have more advanced ship manufacturing technology. After Sabah stabilizes, I plan to find an address in Sabah to build A shipbuilding base, also put it under the shipping group. That will bring more benefits to our shipping group.”

"Of course, other group companies will also get better technology and development one after another, but everyone needs to have more patience. Before that, I need you to prove to me that you have a long-term vision. To make greater profits, or decision makers with long-term stable profits. I don’t need a group of entrepreneurs who are short-sighted and only know about crazy profits at the moment. Jeju Bank is enough to make money in the short term. Spark didn’t come today. Otherwise, he will tell you , how to maximize their own interests."

More than a dozen leaders of various groups at the scene sweated on their foreheads, humbly accepting Ji Feng's lectures without any hesitation. You must know that their identities do not have many such opportunities, and even most of Ji Feng at the scene are number one. This is the first time I know that even though they both attended the year-end meeting last year, after all they couldn't have participated in the core meeting at that time, and it's normal that Ji Feng couldn't remember them.

On the second day, Jifeng had a cordial exchange with Jacob. Under the positive response of the South African ministers, Jifeng obtained the license to operate most industries in South Africa, and gave all Jifeng group companies the most preferential treatment , the first three years are completely tax-free, and the next two years are halved. Then, the tax rate will be calculated according to the franchised foreign-operated enterprise, that is, the full tax will be paid five years after the profit, but 30% of the tax will be returned to Jifeng's companies. Equivalent in kind, these things can be any products from South Africa, just give in kind, which means that Jifeng has to be replaced with South African products to take away or sell to other regions and countries.

This discount is not insignificant, but in order to solve the unemployment rate of more than 25% in South Africa, the South African government is also cruel this time. Jifeng’s investment of hundreds of billions of dollars can at least solve the hundreds of thousands of unemployed people in South Africa. Not to mention that Jifeng will also invest in important industries such as infrastructure construction, mining, banking, and steel manufacturing, especially when he heard that the steel manufacturing group investing in South Africa will supply the two major manufacturing industries of Sabah Airlines and Sabah Shipping in the future , The South African government's eyes suddenly began to shine.

Many group companies such as banking, agriculture and animal husbandry, energy, steel, mining, aviation, fishery, shipping, communications, media, hotels and catering, real estate, medical care, education and municipalities are almost all in the South African investment list this time, and all of them are found This huge investment plan has really excited the South African government. The most important thing is that they do not make any demands, only preferential policies, and have no other political demands at all. Such investors Presumably no country will let it go.

The biggest investment is that Jeju Energy will build two 00-kilowatt-hour radio stations in South Africa, and completely replace the mainstream thermal power stations in South Africa within two to three years to supply the entire South Africa or even more than half of the country. Electricity demand in Southern Africa.

The South African National Power Company will pledge all assets and future profits to borrow 6 million Jeju from Bank of Jeju, occupying 49% of the shares of the joint venture power company, and obtain the company's operating qualifications. Jeju Energy is only responsible for the construction of the radio station. and financial oversight.

Limited by limited human resources, most of Jeju Energy basically chooses the strategy of holding shares but not operating them. In this way, as long as the operator finds any illegal or unsuitable behavior, he can suspend it at any time. The other party's business qualifications and a new leader are the reasons why Ji Feng strongly demands that he must hold a shareholding. At worst, he must obtain half of the shares. After all, this is a stable situation that lasts for decades or even hundreds of years. Earnings, there is nothing more reassuring than this. (To be continued.
