Rebirth of the Evil Life

Chapter 3520: Dispute over Shipyard Orders

When US Secretary of State Rice, relying on a woman's intuition, investigated Lin Feng's recent whereabouts, Lin Feng left Italy.  M

Although Bernardo's recent life was not easy and he was wanted by the whole of Italy, after he got Lin Feng's $100,000 funding and regained his position as the godfather of the Mafia, his life was much better than before. He didn't go anywhere, but to Sicily. But the police didn't know where he was hiding in Sicily.

Although the military also went to Sicily, Italian law could not allow the military to conduct door-to-door searches in Sicily. With the money opening the way, Bernardo spent every day in debauchery, enjoying champagne, wine and beautiful women, and his life was very comfortable.

Therefore, when Lin Feng contacted him and agreed that this matter had nothing to do with Berlusconi and should not involve Berlusconi, Bernardo agreed. For him, he didn't want to cooperate with Berlusconi at all. He hated this playboy-like prime minister. Naturally, he would not use this incident to threaten Berlusconi. This time he was fulfilling Lin Feng's promise, not working for Berlusconi. It's just that while helping Lin Feng fulfill a promise, he also helped himself to avenge a great revenge.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, there are also ways to steal. Our Mafia is not the kind of street thugs who will go back on their words. We have our own discipline. Since I have accepted your funding and promised to help you complete three things. As long as it is within my ability, I will never shirk it, and no matter what the final success or failure is, I will not leak to any party!" Bernardo said frankly, "If there were no such disciplines, our Mafia would not have developed to this day, and the government would want to eliminate it, but it has never been eliminated."

After getting Bernardo's affirmative answer, Lin Feng returned to Shanghai. Now that the EU and Libya have reached a friendly cooperation agreement, it is time for us to send workers to Russia and Libya.

After Lin Feng arrived in Shanghai, a total of 200,000 workers from China Construction Company embarked on a journey to Libya and Russia by plane and train. Among them, there are 50,000 workers in Russia and 150,000 workers in Libya. They will be in the next five years. Roads will be renovated in Russia, and various modern civil infrastructure will be renovated. In Libya, two railways will be built, one horizontal and one vertical, running through Libya, to make Libya and African countries more closely connected. A modern hospital will be built, and telecommunications cable facilities will be laid throughout the country. Libya will become the first country in Africa to have access to the Internet.

Of course, neither Russia nor Libya will pay directly in US dollars for settlement, but will use their own abundant resources for settlement. Oil, natural gas, and various minerals will be the remuneration they use to pay for this major construction. Then Lin Feng will sell these resources and convert them into cash. To pay the wages of these 200,000 workers.

"Boss, we are really at a disadvantage!" Lin Chiling frowned.

"Well, usually this is the settlement funds,

As a result, we receive various resources, and then we need to sell them, convert them into US dollars, and then settle the wages with the workers. And this is settled every three months. This is too uneconomical!" Natalie also frowned. */.//*

Melissa, the former French anchorwoman, looked at Lin Feng with a pen in her hand. She wanted to see what Lin Feng would say. In his opinion, this was indeed very uneconomical.

Lin Feng laughed.

"It is a little disadvantageous. Otherwise, these two countries would not have come to me, right!" Lin Feng laughed, "Of course, I have no direct economic losses. Both countries will give me a little commission, and these resources have never been worried about buyers. It is always good to be able to do a favor for President Putin and President Gaddafi."

"But where can we get so many ships?" Lin Chiling asked with a frown.

These minerals, oil, and natural gas all need tankers to transport, and neither Russia nor Libya can provide tankers. This must be solved by Lin Feng. Of course, Lin Feng can rent tankers, such as the tanker company under the former world shipping king Pao Yue-kong. Although with the death of Pao Yue-kong, the Bao family no longer enjoys the title of world shipping king, but the Bao family still owns the world's top five fleets. With the friendly relationship between the two sides, it is indeed possible to borrow enough ships.

"Buy!" Lin Feng said word by word.

"Ah!? Buy!" Everyone exclaimed.

Buy a ship? That's right! How can you buy a ship? Isn't it just to transport some ore? Buying a ship is a bit exaggerated. The contract period is only five years. For five years of ore transportation, Lin Feng bought a ship. No matter how you think about it, it feels a bit exaggerated. To use the popular online words now, it's a bit stupid!

Lin Feng didn't explain much to the stunned expressions of the girls. He is the boss and doesn't need to explain too much like Lin Chiling and the others. They just need to follow their orders.

As for why they want to buy a ship, it is actually due to two considerations. One is that China's current domestic shipbuilding industry has a serious overcapacity. In the past two years, due to the rise in ore prices, the shipping industry has also risen. At present, the global energy ore transportation industry's ships are mainly in the hands of Japan's Mitsui Group.

China first paid a high price to buy energy ores controlled by Japan's Mitsui and other consortiums, and then was designated to hire the Mitsui Consortium's ship logistics and transportation. Naturally, the price was high again. If you don’t pay a high price, they won’t give it away. After learning from the painful experience, the country called for vigorous development of the shipbuilding industry. As a result, the shipbuilding industry has been vigorously developed in various places, and several provinces have launched large-scale shipyards for 10,000-ton cargo ships. As a result, there was suddenly overcapacity.

There are so many shipyards, but there are not enough orders. If these hundreds of billions are thrown in, if they cannot produce, it will be in vain. Therefore, Lin Feng decided to help these shipyards and place a few orders to do the work for them. Although it cannot completely solve the overcapacity crisis, it can at least make up for the deficit, right?

Of course, just because of this, Lin Feng wouldn't really go out of his way to buy a boat. It's really not cost-effective. The focus is still on Lin Feng’s second reason. Mineral energy, Lin Feng will be able to obtain more and more mineral energy, and these will definitely require 10,000-ton cargo ships to transport. Rather than always relying on others to transport your goods, it is better to set up a freight shipping company yourself. This is not only more convenient, but also more concealed when transporting some special products.

As for which shipyard to choose, Lin Feng actually didn’t have to go find it. Regarding the current overcapacity in China's shipbuilding industry, Lin Feng directly issued a slogan to the outside world, announcing that he wanted to buy ships to transport ore, oil and natural gas. General managers of China's top ten shipyards swarmed in. There is now excess capacity. Now Lin Fenghao has said that he will buy at least 10 10,000-ton cargo ships. Who wouldn’t grab such a big order?

Not only the general managers of these shipyards came to grab orders, but also the provincial leaders from the places behind them came. Yes, it is the provincial leader. The buyer this time is Lin Feng. Ordinary city leaders are not enough to see it. It must be a provincial leader. And it must be at least at the level of deputy governor in charge of the economy. Any lower than that, and it’s not good enough. That was contempt for Lin Feng.

As a result, when so many people arrived, Shanghai became a little panicked. Originally, there was a shipyard in Shanghai, one of the best in the country. It's called Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. This time, the Shanghai Shipyard also sent someone at the general manager level to seek orders without notifying the city government. In their view, Lin Feng is now considered a Shanghainese, and he is the pride of Shanghai. For such a large order, Shanghai should at least take the lion's share, not to mention the Shanghai shipyard alone.

But now the provincial leaders of these provinces have arrived. Shanghai Shipyard can't stand it anymore. In case this order is taken away by other provinces. That's it. We already had overcapacity, but we finally got a big order. It's so close to the water tower. If someone robs me of this, how can I feel so good? At the moment, without saying much, he immediately went to find Secretary Wang.

When Secretary Wang heard this, he became anxious. The selling price of this 10,000-ton cargo ship is generally around US$30.5 million. According to domestic prices, that is more than 200 million yuan. This time and again, that is a GDP of more than 500 million. If Lin Feng orders ten ships, it will be a GDP of more than 5 billion. Although more than 5 billion GDP is nothing to Shanghai as a whole, after all, Shanghai's GDP last year was 912.5 billion yuan.

The GDP of more than 5 billion only accounts for 0.54% of the total GDP. This doesn't sound like a lot, but when you think about it, just one shipyard can increase GDP by 0.54%, which is pretty good. Especially when the shipyard is still in a stage of severe overcapacity and losses, let alone that. Moreover, this will also drive the development of related industrial chains. After calculation, its production capacity will be far more than 5 billion.

Rob! It must be snatched back.

"Ah, Mr. Lin, are you free tonight? I'll treat you to dinner!" Secretary Wang called Lin Feng immediately. Compared with those at the provincial governor level from other provinces, his biggest advantage is that he has Lin Feng's phone number and can contact Lin Feng at any time. He believed that he could treat Lin Feng to a meal, say good things, and give him some preferential policies, and then the order would be completed. After all, Shanghai is Lin Feng’s home.

Although Lin Feng’s hometown is not in Shanghai, up to now, everyone in Shanghai doesn’t think that Lin Feng is from Shanghai! And all this time, governments at all levels in Shanghai have taken great care of Lin Feng. They give people to people when they need them, land to people when they need them, and they give them whatever they want. This relationship has long been unusual. Therefore, Secretary Wang believes that this matter should be a piece of cake.

But what Secretary Wang didn't expect was that Lin Feng politely declined Secretary Wang's invitation. At this moment, Secretary Wang was anxious.

"Mr. Lin, we are all old friends. Although Shanghai is not your hometown, I have always regarded you as a hometown person. In Shanghai, everyone regards you as a city hero. You are the pride of all us Shanghainese. . The whole city is proud of you! Mr. Lin, you can't let the people of Shanghai down. This time, the Shanghai Shipyard is very sincere in doing this business. You also know that if they have overcapacity, they can't take it. This order is a very heavy blow to the entire shipyard. It may even affect their future plans, and I may even say that there may be layoffs. After all, the competition is too great. You are the pride of Shanghai, and this time you are also the savior of the shipyard. You can't ignore it!" Secretary Wang said with tears and runny eyes, as if Lin Feng didn't give this order, the shipyard would go bankrupt.

Lin Feng smiled. Secretary Wang is fooling himself. Even if the Shanghai shipyard has overcapacity, it still has orders. What's more, when I didn't want to buy a boat, didn't it come over too? As for being surrounded by dangers like this?

"Secretary Wang, don't worry. I, Lin Feng, am not an ungrateful villain. I will definitely take care of them. However, for now, I also have to meet with representatives from shipyards in other provinces, don't you think? These people have come from far away. If I don't even meet them, it would be too unreasonable and too offensive. You should also know that my business is now spreading all over the country and has connections with various provinces. I can't offend them all, don't you think!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

Secretary Wang knew that he couldn't expect to get the order today. He could only sigh, say a few words to do his best, and then hang up the phone. Of course, he would not give up. He must strive for 0.54% of GDP. An internal meeting was held immediately to discuss how to deal with this situation and get this 0.54% of GDP.

Then Lin Feng did not show up himself, and asked Lin Zhiling and Natalie to meet with representatives of shipyards in various provinces on his behalf. As for the leaders from various provinces, they were still met by Lin Feng himself. If this is met by a secretary, it would be a bit disrespectful. Officials are not like people in the business world, who put interests first. Officials care most about face. If I let my secretary meet them, they will definitely be angry.

Of course, since Mr. Wen and Mr. Xi are standing behind Lin Feng now, these leaders dare not rush with him. However, there is a Chinese saying that it is better to offend the King of Hell than to offend the little devil. These leaders of various provinces dare not rush with him openly, but it is okay to make some trips in secret. Moreover, you can't rush with them.

So, Lin Feng personally came forward and met with the leaders of nine provinces. After a long conversation, the host and the guest were both happy, but in the end Lin Feng did not agree to anything. These leaders were amused. But they couldn't rush with Lin Feng, and they couldn't leave. If they left, there would definitely be no play. So, even if they did useless work, they could only stay here. Waiting for Lin Feng to reveal the final answer.

As a result, while waiting, the Shanghai government made a move first. What should we do? Sing praises to Lin Feng for his great achievements, erect a plaque for him. We should move Lin Feng and make him feel embarrassed to give the order to outsiders! (To be continued. Mobile users please read here.)
