Chapter 1121 Rare Earths
Eating barbecue simply is too greasy, wrapping it with lettuce leaves can reduce the greasiness.
Then I picked up the spoon and scoop some soup with the added soy sauce called "dashes" and the taste was very strange.
Lee Kun-hee hadn't moved her chopsticks yet, and kept watching his movements, asking, "How is it?"
Han Xuan raised his thumb and said, "It's delicious. I rarely see authentic Korean restaurants in the United States. The first time I have eaten it, the characteristics of Chinese and Japanese cuisine can be reflected in Korean food."
"Ha ha!
Our Korean food is nutritious, but Chinese food is also good. A few years ago, I was on a business trip in Yanjing and had a dinner called Manhan and Han banquet, which scared me.
I have eaten countless meals in my life, but I have never seen the rich dishes and I still miss them.
Unfortunately, not many people can do it, and Chinese culture is indeed profound and profound.”
No country will only say bad things about themselves, but also say good things about other countries. In comparison, the lower-level residents generally have shortsighted eyes because they don’t have many opportunities to go to other countries to experience them personally.
Information is obtained from the media, and the media itself has a clear political tendency.
And at their level, especially multinational merchants, the boundaries of the country are no longer obvious. In their eyes, the whole world is a huge field of fighting. With good cultivation, they will not say rude words like ordinary people.
Everyone here is jealous of the huge market in China and knows it very clearly.
When Han Xuan heard Mr. Lee Kun-hee’s praise, he also smiled and said, “I have heard of that dish. If you have the chance, you must try it.
If Korean Dingshi is the representative of Korean food culture, then the Manchu and Han banquet is probably the pinnacle of Chinese food.
There are fifty-four dishes in the south and fifty-four dishes in the north, and there are at least one hundred and eight dishes, and it takes three days to finish it.”
Old Man Lee Kun-hee looked shocked: "There are so many?"
I only had more than thirty dishes, and it seems that it is not a complete version of the Manchu and Han chew. It's so scary."
Winnie squatted on the carpet not far away, staring at the table full of dishes, saliva was about to flow out, her nose was too sensitive, and she was so stimulated by the smell of food that she was going crazy.
But it didn't recognize those people, so it didn't go up to disturb the owner. Winnie thought he was a polite and good bear.
Standing there, he continued to sigh until the waiter thoughtfully brought a large pot of fruit stirred with honey, and his little eyes lit up instantly.
Fat Ding and Little Barry also got their favorite food. A young woman was holding a basin full of beef and didn't dare to approach White Tiger Obama.
Gabriel helped take it and placed it in front of Obama. The waitress repeatedly expressed her gratitude.
When he tasted kimchi, Han Xuan quickly took a sip of the soup.
If you want to say that other dishes can be made of it, these pickled cabbages are like poisonous to him. His tongue really couldn't adapt, so he swallowed them in a hurry.
The history of eating kimchi in China has a long history. I like to add some kimchi in everything. The reason is not as romantic as people imagine. The latitude of this country is high, and vegetables cannot be preserved in ancient times.
In order to have vegetables in winter, they were pickled in advance. Over time, I developed the habit of eating kimchi, which has continued to this day.
There is no reason to joke with others. Currently, China and the north and south also have the habit of pickling kimchi. There are a lot of salty goods in winter. The reason is actually similar to that in South Korea, and it is also for long-term preservation.
However, with the economic development, many people gradually kicked pickles out of the dining table after entering the new millennium, and the elderly still remember it.
Almost half full of my stomach, I drank more and more times.
Han Xuan drank half a bottle of soju wine alone, and he almost didn't feel anything. The cup was small, so he drank it one cup after another.
The voice of old man Choi Jong-hyun came from his ears. When he heard the content of his conversation with others, he was suddenly shocked!
Because Chairman Cui of sk Group actually said that the Chinese government inexplicably rejected the orders being negotiated with sk Group and began to limit the export volume of rare earths.
If it were just like this, Han Xuan would not be surprised. However, the loss of rare earth resources in China in his previous life has not been alleviated. Logically speaking, in this era, the government should not pay attention to rare earths.
What shocked Han Xuan was that he remembered the paper he had written before.
It describes the importance of rare earths that have continued to increase in exports in recent years and raises them to the height of strategic resources.
He guessed in his heart whether the paper was obtained by China, otherwise why would he suddenly pay attention to rare earths that are cheaper than pork now.
When it comes to rare earths, many people may not know.
It has the beautiful name of "industrial vitamins", which refers to the general term for fifteen types of lanthanide oxides in the periodic table of elements with atomic numbers of fifty-seven to seventy-one.
It can be used in high-tech products such as tanks, aircraft, missiles, aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, titanium alloys and other high-tech products.
The reason why the Soviet Union was at a disadvantage in the competition with the United States was that it was because it lagged behind in rare earth research and produced military products that were not as good as the United States.
Currently, LED lights, cameras, mobile phones, TVs, etc., countless products closely related to people contain trace rare earths.
Han Xuan once saw in a report that in the early 1990s, China still had 80% of the world's rare earth resources, but twenty years later, only 20% remained.
Countries such as Japan and South Korea that do not have rare earth resources are importing rare earths from China for a long time at a bargain price. The amount of rare earths stored in China is enough to be used for hundreds of years. However, China's rare earths are less and less, and they may even face the dilemma of possible imports from abroad in the future.
There are also many rare earth resources in the United States, but they know the importance and would rather buy from China than mine it, because China's rare earths are cheaper, and the price is even cheaper than the labor cost of mining in the United States.
But a group of people in China competed with each other and sold rare earths as soil, and the quotations were lower than the other. Han Xuan felt heartbroken when he thought about it, so he mentioned this in his paper.
From a strategic perspective, of course, the more resources you reserve, the better. However, from a benefit perspective, whether you hoard resources or keep them open, it will cause losses in profits, which will increase storage costs and resource utilization costs.
So he also wrote in his thesis that it is OK to open appropriately, but the number of exports should be limited to ensure sustainable development.
In my previous life, in just over ten years, the export volume of rare earths increased tenfold, which was simply unreasonable.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Huaxia got its paper on the exhibition and corrected it according to the suggestions.
Happy emotions are expressed on Han Xuan's face (to be continued.)8
