Chapter 241 Abandoning the Acquisition

"Contact Felix Company, we will go to Western Australia to check immediately to ensure that their coal mine is true. Notify the crew to fly to Western Australia and we will go to the Moraben Mine." Jiang Lang glanced at the terms that must be agreed and immediately issued an order.

After just returning to the hotel from the airport and waiting for less than half an hour, Jiang Lang and others left the hotel again. After arriving at the airport, they drove directly to the apron. After boarding the plane and getting approved by the tower, Peng Li took off from the runway and flew to Perth, an important Western Australian city.

Zhou Xiao's phone call didn't stop halfway. As soon as he hung up, someone called in, or he was calling her and explaining something to the outside.

Everyone realized how serious the problem was. Resource depletion meant that all their efforts were wasted. Everyone had a solemn expression on their faces. Only Jiang Lang, who said he wanted to think carefully, could not see how anxious he was hiding in the bedroom. He even had the intention to lit a cigarette in the bedroom and listened to the music with his feet raised.

After getting off the plane, several business vehicles drove into the airport. After receiving everyone, they went straight to the Moraben Coal Mine. Accompanied by the coal mine manager Havi Eles, Jiang Lang and others focused on checking the mine pit that was originally being mined normally. It was no longer black coal inside, but now it has completely turned into a kind of rock and soil.

"It's so strange. Even if a geological natural disaster occurs, how could the original coal suddenly disappear? Is there no reason at all?" Ha Wei was completely confused. Because it was an open-pit mine, what was going on can be seen at a glance.

"It is indeed completely different from other Asian countries. Mr. Jiang, we should terminate this acquisition case immediately." Dong Yunhao said with rich experience again, as if Jiang Lang refused to listen to what he would go crazy, and the other employees were also not good-looking. Yin Shangjie, Zhang Zhengrong and others all advised Jiang Lang that the acquisition failed and must not continue. It would be better to say it while it was discovered early. Moreover, if it was stopped now, the first payment of 1 billion yuan from Felix Resources Company is likely to be a little longer at most. But once it continues, not only will it lose 1 billion yuan, but it will also include all subsequent ones, because the resources have been exhausted, and once all matters of the transaction of thousands of workers are completed, it is equivalent to placing yourself on your shoulders.

"Lawyer Zhang, contact Felix and let them explain, it is impossible for us to buy an empty shell. But so many resources cannot disappear for no reason. We have registered our own sole proprietorship in Perth and applied for exploration rights and land from the local area. We need to find out where these resources have gone." Jiang Lang took a deep breath and agreed to the suggestions of several people to terminate the transaction, but the Qian Jianglang brought over did not intend to bring it back. The loss of the exchange rate alone would be hundreds of millions.

Although Jiang Lang didn't care, he still had to do a full set of plays. He came to Australia for resources. If he lost it, he still had to find a way to get it out. Otherwise, it would lead to the rise of international iron ore to a limitless level. The domestic steel industry could not hold on to such huge losses. They were still waiting for the iron ore to be put into the pot, and it was too late to urgently increase the supply of Maxi.

"Mr. Harvey Elise, the Moraben Mine does not match the information you provided before, so we have to terminate the acquisition. Sorry, please express our apology to Mr. Felix." After Zhou Xiao finished his fluent English expression, he directly asked everyone to get in the car and leave. There is no need to stay here anymore.

Back in Perth, Dong Yunhao immediately negotiated with the local mining association. Zhang Zhengrong and Yin Shangjie were still persuading Jiang Lang, hoping that he could change his mind and not continue to waste money in Australia. Although the money was Jiang Lang's own, if Jiang Lang couldn't think about it for a while, if Jiang Lang had to do exploration here, once it went bankrupt, there would be tens of thousands of workers in the country, and everyone was still waiting for Jiang Lang to have a meal. Even Zhou Xing's people did not agree with Jiang Lang's continued investment in Australia.

But Jiang Lang refused to listen: "Everyone, I understand your concerns, but we must understand that this is a mineral, no one can steal it, let alone such a huge amount, there is no reason why the good minerals were suddenly gone? I won't invest too much. The one billion Australian dollars has been paid to the other party anyway. Even if we want to come back, we don't have a better investment channel. I will discuss with Delma International and strive to get a few advanced exploration equipment. We have no choice. Maybe Delma has a solution?"

"But Mr. Jiang, you must understand that once you really decide to invest more, your funds may not be recovered at all." Zhou Xiao warned Jiang Lang carefully.

"I understand, but Australia is China's main iron ore supplier. If all the coal and iron ore are gone, what should the domestic steel mills do? Once they stop production due to lack of iron ore, it will cause the coal of many domestic coal companies, including us, to be unable to sell them. At that time, it will accumulate in large quantities in our coal yards. It's okay if steel companies don't want us to sell them to power plants, but once malicious competition occurs, those small and medium-sized coal mines will only be forced to close their doors. This will be a problem for millions of domestic families. Do you want to see this happen? We have money, and we have crude oil and natural gas supply, so it's no problem to keep everyone's high salary. Now we are all in Australia, and just in time to catch up with this kind of energy depletion. We can terminate the acquisition of Felix Resources Company, but I still want to find more for the country that can ensure that all steel companies in the country have sufficient ore.

It is true that we are an energy company. Although we mainly produce energy, we cannot only limit ourselves to energy. We must also look at all related industries across the country, and try our best to ensure the economic recession of our country and the lives of millions of families."

What Jiang Lang said was a little emotional, but it moved Zhou Xiao, Yin Shangjie, Zhang Zhengrong and others, especially when they thought that the situation that Jiang Lang said really happened, it would inevitably lead to large-scale turmoil in the country.

Now international oil prices have remained high due to tight supply. Although the Chinese government announced that it would sell hundreds of millions of tons of crude oil to the international market in 2011, after all, there were still few exports in the first half of the year, mainly concentrated in the second half of the year. After all, we have to wait for the Zhanjiang Mine to be put into production. Now, except for exporting the crude oil from Qidong Energy to sk Group, the rest is being supplied to domestic.

The depletion of iron ore will certainly push iron ore in the international market to an unacceptable price height, and all the people in the country will pay for it. The continuous reactions caused will lead to inflation and prices in various industries soaring, and the national order is even facing challenges.

When the cell phone rang, Zhou Xiao answered a call. Almost everyone bought a local phone card after coming to Australia. Now each person has two mobile phones. It was called by the Sydney branch. Faced with the sudden arrival of Australia's resources, the country also attaches great importance to it. Tomorrow, there will be a party organized by corporate bosses from China to discuss how to face this situation.

There are many domestic companies in Australia, many of which are mainly iron ore invested and acquired by various groups in Australia, but there are also some other mineral companies.

Jiang Lang agreed to attend the meeting in the past, but he still stubbornly left behind the staff, let Zhang Zhengrong and others stay in Perth, register the Qidong Energy Australia Branch, and let Gao Xiaoya stay and handle various procedures. Her English is not bad, and she is enough to deal with the registration matters. The most important thing is to face the current energy depletion, and apply for exploration and mining rights from the Western Australian government.

That night, Jiang Lang, Zhou Xiao, Li Meili and two Chinese from Sydney branches flew to Sydney again. The next day, he had a conversation with the bosses stationed in Australia from various groups from China. Although everyone regretted that the losses were huge this time, there was no better way. When Jiang Lang proposed to continue investing in exploration in Australia, many people sneered at this. Most of them were state-owned enterprises, and they were not invested as long as they wanted. Jiang Lang could say this, but they did not dare to squander the money of the country.

This behavior of losing all his money is obviously not in line with their business methods. Even though they know that the resources are exhausted, they will continue to invest in it. At that time, they will not be able to explain to their superiors, let alone to the people across the country.

Two days later, in Melbourne, the Australian government had no choice but to announce that Australia had entered the footsteps of Asia and entered the era of depletion. All coal, iron ore, copper ore, oil and aluminum ore were exhausted and stopped production. Although this was not what Australia hoped, it was a fact. At the same time, the Felix acquisition case was terminated, and Felix returned one billion Australian dollars very happily. This was something Jiang Lang had never expected. He thought it would take him to get back the money.

The entire Australia, due to the depletion of iron ore, coal and other resources, has led to a downward decline in the economy. The GDP status this year is no longer worth expecting. The Australian government has adjusted its own economic indicators and strived to control it within 2. But this is just an ideal situation. With the silence of the largest minerals, it will lead to the bankruptcy of a large number of major mining companies and tens of thousands of people unemployed. At that time, Australia will be in a chaotic situation.

On January 17, the registration of Qidong Energy Australia Branch was officially completed, and the local government successfully completed all the procedures with surprising efficiency. At the same time, Yin Shangjie's application for exploration on the western coastline of Australia was approved on the same day.
