Chapter 668 Dangerous Australia

Regarding Zheng Jiayi's proposal, Fang Mingyuan finally nodded in agreement. Since this was the case, Fang Mingyuan planned to include the Guo family as well.The three companies will contribute capital, and Luo Meiyu and the others will invest in the shares. As long as the three companies agree, Luo Meiyu and the others will not be able to turn the sky no matter what!Just treat them as an emotional investment and play with them.Anyway, the company is headquartered in Hong Kong, and the factory can be located in the mainland across the river, so the cost can still be effectively controlled.Even if you lose money, you can't lose anywhere!

"Then let them go back and prepare. When the time is right, they can establish the company first, purchase the plant and equipment first, recruit and train workers." Fang Mingyuan said, "However, don't ask them to think too simply. New things It takes a process to be recognized by consumers! Being a pioneer, sometimes, is not necessarily a good thing! If it were me, I would wait for Sony and Apple to obtain authorization, and then rush before they launch products , just launch your own product!"

"Okay, as long as you can get your authorization, you don't have to worry about other things! Meiyu and the others also graduated from prestigious universities. Even if they don't have much work experience, there is no shortage of manpower at home! Manage this booth , you don’t have to worry about it!” Zheng Jiayi said happily.Fang Mingyuan was able to listen to her opinion, which made her extra happy.

Fang Mingyuan smiled, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Hey, by the way, I forgot to ask you, how long have you stayed in Hong Kong this time?" Zheng Jiayi asked again, "Will you turn around and leave again?"

Fang Mingyuan smiled bitterly and said, "You're right, I'm going back to the Shanghai stock market tomorrow. After staying in the Shanghai stock market for a day or two, I'm going to Perth, Australia!"

"Perth? The capital of Western Australia? What are you doing there?" Zheng Jiayi said in surprise. She seemed to have never heard of the Fang family's big business there.

"I plan to invest in several mines in Western Australia to make some raw material reserves for domestic steel plants. We have been talking for a long time, but there is no substantial progress. But recently, the Australians have finally let go. So I plan to personally Go over and see the situation." Fang Mingyuan didn't hide it from her.

Zheng Jiayi nodded knowingly. She also knew that Fang Mingyuan had a steel industry both in China and in Japan.The annual consumption of iron ore is quite astonishing. "I have also heard that Western Australia's mineral resources rank first in Australia, and the reserves are large. They are widely distributed, shallowly buried, and easy to develop. However, there have always been controlled by European and American companies. In recent years, Ri's company has invested a lot, and it is not so easy for you to open up the situation!"

"If it was easy, I wouldn't need to step in." Fang Mingyuan said.

Zheng Jiayi couldn't help laughing, she stepped forward a few steps.Came in front of Fang Mingyuan, looked into Fang Mingyuan's eyes and said softly, "Go to Australia, pay more attention to your own safety! Don't let people worry!"

"I've stayed here for many years, so I'm used to it!" Xia Wen and Lin Rong have known each other since childhood, and the relationship between the two families has always been very close.then.If it wasn't for Xia Wen and Lin Rong's eldest sister not calling each other, otherwise, Xia Wen might be Lin Rong's eldest brother-in-law now!

It has been several years since Xia Wen was sent by Fang Mingyuan to Australia to take charge of the work. His main task here is to build a good relationship with the local government and lay the foundation for the Fang family's mining in Western Australia.Just because this is the traditional territory of European and American companies, Xia Wen's work here has not been very smooth.Even with a multi-pronged approach, the achievements so far can only be said to be barely impressive!

However, after the Southeast Asian financial crisis, the East Asian financial crisis and the Russian financial crisis, the financial crisis has spread to the whole world and is no longer limited to Asian countries.Australia, which is not far from Southeast Asia in Oceania, is naturally not immune!

Australia was a British colony at the time, and it was originally where the British exiled prisoners.Later, Australia acquired du li, but it has always belonged to the British sphere of influence.It can be said to be a loyal ally of the British.In the two world wars, the Australians all stood on the side of the United Kingdom and sent troops to fight.Therefore, although it is in Oceania, when it is mentioned in the international community, it will still be included in the ranks of European and American countries.The Australian government has indeed always believed that it belongs to the ranks of European countries.

But with the 80s, the Asian economy entered a period of rapid development, and after the 90s, the attitude of the Australian government also changed.Not only is it sending eyeballs to Southeast Asian countries, but it also repeatedly claims that it should be considered an Asian country, hoping to join the free trade zone that Asian countries intend to establish in the future.

However, in the eyes of a discerning person, this is actually not surprising—in the early 80s, only one-third of Australia’s products were exported to Asia, and in less than a decade, this figure has tripled. , becomes at least 60.00% of export trade is related to Asia.The ultra-high-speed growth of trade has also changed the business focus of Australia's financial industry. In addition, the profits they can obtain from the European and American markets are declining year by year, while the Southeast Asian market is increasing year by year, so Australia's four major banks have accelerated Seize the footsteps of the Southeast Asian market, and even the East Asian market!And the rich rewards they got made the Australians stunned!

At that time, the emergence of the miracle in Asia seemed to have just begun. For those bold and quick-footed, Asia was like a huge money printing factory. As long as you are willing, there will be a lot of wealth rolling in. Can't stop it!As long as you invest a sum of money casually, you can get a rich return of ten times or dozens of times!

Due to the vast land area of ​​Australia.The population is only 2000 million, and the national economy is quite dependent on export trade.Australia has well-developed agriculture and animal husbandry, and is rich in natural resources. In the international community, it is known as "the country riding on the back of a sheep", "the country sitting on a mine cart" and "the country holding ears of wheat".It is rich in sheep, cattle, wheat and sugar, and is also an important producer and exporter of mineral resources in the world, so its export products are mainly agricultural and animal husbandry products and mineral resources.By cooperating with Asian countries, especially close to Southeast Asia, they have made considerable profits from Asian countries with rapid economic development.

in this case.It is not surprising that Australians have the intention to abandon Europe and enter Asia!

It's just that the Australians didn't expect this Asian "magic lamp" that seems to be constantly miraculous.After [-], there was no lamp oil!After a vigorous financial storm, it left a mess!Decades of economic construction achievements have all been wiped out!The economies of Southeast Asian countries have suffered greatly!This has caused the Australian economy, which was originally close to the water, to be strongly affected!

Needless to say, in [-], the economy not only did not grow, but actually declined significantly.And so far in [-], there has been no obvious improvement!And as the impact of the financial crisis spreads to the world, it seems that there will be a worsening trend!Economic development is sluggish, and the unemployment rate is rising steadily.This is naturally a very dangerous thing for the Australian government-this is an important factor related to the results of the government's general election!Therefore, during this period of time, Xia Wen has achieved many gratifying results.

A group of people got into the car, and Xia Wen brought a total of four cars.They are all CMB.

"Mr. Fang, all leaders, welcome to Perth, the capital of Western Australia!" As soon as the car started, Xia Wen turned his head from the passenger seat and smiled at everyone, "I hope that you can spend the next few days in Had a great time here."

Everyone couldn't help laughing, and Lin Rong was the first to say, "I'm not your leader. You are directly led by Gui Fangshao!"

Aso Xiangyue raised her hand and said with a smile, "President Xia, I have a question for you!"

Xia Wen shook his head again and again and said, "In front of Young Master Fang and everyone, I'm no boss, Miss Aso, you should call me by my name!" Today Xia Wen can be regarded as a middle and high-level manager in the Fang family's industry. , As for Aso Xiangyue's status in Fang's family, she naturally knew more clearly!He didn't dare to think that he, who might become the main person in charge of the Fang family's industry in Australia in the future, could outshine Asa.

"Sister Xiangyue, Brother Wen should be younger than you, so you can call him Xiao Xia. Brother Wen, don't call him Miss Aso, but Miss Xiangyue!" Lin Rong said with a smile.

"Then I'll follow the good advice and listen to you!" Aso Xiangyue said with a sweet smile, "Xiao Xia, you should tell us about the poisons here in Australia. We live here, and there are things we need to pay attention to!"

"Australian poison?" Xia Wen asked in surprise.

"Yes, on the plane, Mingyuan told us a lot about the poisonous creatures in Australia. For example, the eastern brown snake, and spiders!" Lin Rong gave Fang Mingyuan a bitter look and said.

"Ah... the eastern brown snake." Xia Wen glanced at Fang Mingyuan, and said in a drawn out voice, "The eastern brown snake is indeed a very terrifying poisonous snake, it is the second most poisonous land poisonous snake in the world, even if it is a juvenile The snake also has enough venom to kill humans. Because its venom contains ingredients that prevent blood clotting, there is a risk of bleeding after being bitten by an eastern brown snake."

Aso Xiangyue and Lin Rong's complexions turned a little blue - the second most poisonous land snake in the world!

"However, the eastern brown snake lives in the central part of Australia. This is the state of Western Australia. Unless someone brings it specially, otherwise, you will never encounter the eastern brown snake!" Xia Wen laughed, "As for what Fang Shao said The spider, is it called the Sydney funnel-web spider?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lin Rong, who heard that there were no eastern brown snakes in Perth, could not help but let out a sigh of relief, nodding repeatedly.The name made quite an impression on her.

"The Sydney funnel-web spider is an irritable creature, and it is the most aggressive spider in the world! The venom of the funnel-web spider spreads quickly, and you can feel the super venom within minutes after being bitten by it Under the influence of xing, the injured will have muscle spasms, sometimes extremely violent, and even produce spastic paralysis! In the end, the patient will fall into a coma, the toxin will invade the respiratory center, and the patient will eventually suffocate to death." Xia Wen smiled and said, "But I have good news and bad news, which one are you going to hear first?"

"Good news!" Aso Xiangyue said first.

"The good news is that it only exists in one city on the east coast of Australia!" Xia Wen said. "The bad news is that that city is the most prosperous in Australia, Sydney, which everyone who travels to Australia will go to!"

"Ah..." Lin Rong exclaimed in surprise, and then suddenly realized, "No wonder it's called the Sydney funnel-web spider!"

"Yes, that's why it was given this name!" Fang Mingyuan smiled, "And you can rest assured that this kind of spider has serum now, and all hospitals in Sydney will have it all year round." Sufficient storage. Therefore, under normal circumstances, as long as you report to the doctor in time, there will be no danger to your life! Of course, the patient will suffer a lot! So when you go to Sydney in the future, you must remember to put on your clothes in the morning Before shoes, shake them to avoid spiders in them!"

"Young Master Fang is right. I remember that this serum should cost $750 per dose," Xia Wen said.

"750 dollars a dose, so expensive!" Lin Rong couldn't help but gasped.This is almost equivalent to the annual income of ordinary Chinese people.

"For Australians whose per capita annual income is around [-] U.S. dollars, it's nothing!" Xia Wen spread his hands.

"You basically won't encounter the kinds of creatures Fang Shao mentioned in Western Australia. But I still want to remind everyone that there are many famous beaches in Perth, and their scenery is as beautiful as those in southern Australia. Comparable to the Gold Coast, it can be said that it is a must-see for tourists who come to Perth. Moreover, there are many recreational activities in the sea in Australia. When you go into the water, you must be careful of creatures such as sea snakes and jellyfish! They are dangerous, sometimes , not smaller than the eastern brown snakes and spiders just mentioned! Every year in Australia, people encounter cases of these creatures dying because of entering the water!" Xia Wen said solemnly. (to be continued)rq
