Chapter 789 Valencia Mining Area
The drones are all ready-made. Long before Jiang Chen arrived in Xiangjiang, Future Heavy Industry has added several beta-3 drone production lines, and it will be no problem to complete the production of 100,000 beta-3s by the end of the month.
The most important thing now is to negotiate with the Xiangjiang City Government...
“What about the safety aspect? What happens if the cargo delivered by the drone falls out of the sky?”
"There is no need to worry about this aspect at all. Safety is one of the design priorities of beta-3. Even if there is an accident, beta-3 will start the emergency procedure to open the slow-falling objects, and the cargo will land on the roof and other uninhabited areas. Other drones are responsible for the recovery. At the same time, Global Express will plan the route of the drone to ensure that the aircraft carrying heavy objects will not pass through densely populated areas to ensure the safety of personnel.”
"*What? You installed a camera on the drone. Does that mean that the beta-3 can film the private space of the building's occupants?"
"Beta-3 is indeed equipped with a camera, but under normal circumstances its actions are performed by AI. Unless there are special circumstances, the staff will not manually control the drone, so there is no need to infringe on the issue of * leaking! All video data will only be saved on the server for 30 days, and will be automatically cleared after 30 days."
"..."
The most grueling part is the Legislative Council. The delegation sent by the Future Group must face inquiries from various affairs committees, and finally convince the people in the Legislative Committee to make a decision on drone management regulations that is conducive to the development of unmanned express delivery worldwide. machine business regulations.
But in general, the progress of the negotiations is still very smooth.
On the other hand, Jiang Chen had a meeting with the Chief Executive. On the one hand, they settled the matter of drone logistics, and on the other hand, they exchanged opinions on Future Group's investment in Xiangjiang. Judging from the Chief Executive's attitude, the Xiangjiang City Government still values the Future Group, and has also shown a considerable degree of interest in the drone logistics network.
If nothing else, the Legislative Council will issue drone management regulations before the 25th, and global express delivery will start on the 30th to start building a drone logistics network.
In the evening, back at the hotel, Aisha called.
"Evelyn is under control. He was transferred to Droplet 1 two hours ago and has now left Albanian territorial waters."
"Pay attention to safety... By the way, how is the situation in Europe?"
There was a pause on the phone for a few seconds.
"The atmosphere is a little weird.
"
"Is it weird?" Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, "Let the Ghost agents keep an eye on the movements of the Rothschild family and find out what they want to do."
"Leave it to me." Aisha replied softly.
...
In the past few days when Jiang Chen was in Xiangjiang City, many things happened outside.
Recently, several large-scale mines have been explored in Mindanao, and they are named the Valencia mining area because they are concentrated in the Valencia area in central Mindanao. The estimated reserves of this mining area are quite astonishing, and the mines also cover iron, aluminum, lead, zinc, and copper mines that are in high demand in the New Malaysia District, and the grades are above the average!
However, it was this Valencia mining area that ignited the differences between the bhp group and the future mining industry.
As the explorer of the Valencia mining area, bhp Group requested more equity and reinterpreted the signed contract. They believe that based on the contributions of both parties, the original 55% and 45% shares are obviously unfair, and the bhp group should hold 55% of the shares.
Naturally, Future Mining would not agree, and insisted on following the contract, or they would break up at once.
The two parties have been negotiating on this issue since March this year. Originally, the attitude of the bhp group had begun to soften. However, since May, the specific point seems to be that after Jiang Chen gave the golden apple to Rothschild, their attitude has changed again. Hardened.
There is no doubt that Mr. Luke of the bhp group is also a member of the Freemasonry. The Freemasonry obviously believed that Jiang Chen had given in to them.
But they obviously got something wrong.
The contract between bhp Mining Group and Futureman Mining on Mindanao expired, and Futureman Mining directly and strongly refused to renew the contract. In the future, Futureman Group will independently complete the development of mineral resources in Mindanao, kicking bhp Group out of the game.
BHP Mining Group expressed surprise and regret for Future Group's decision, but still made the decision to withdraw equipment and personnel from Mindanao, and evacuated assets from Moro with a face full of disbelief.
From this incident, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the honeymoon period between the Future Group and the Rothschild family is over.
But then again, at this level of development, the Future Human Group no longer needs to look at anyone's face.
Now the resources of the New Mata Special Zone and the Anga Island High-tech Industrial Park are basically supported by the mining areas in Mindanao, especially after several rich mines have been explored, the Future Group no longer needs to rely on these mining giants.
It's not kind to kick the bhp group away, but who wants the Freemasonry to be unkind first?
On the other hand, Gaoxin Danshui and Future People Bank listed in New York were shorted by unknown funds, and their stock prices fell by 30% within three days.
Faced with such a situation, Jiang Chen calmly increased his holdings of the subsidiary's stocks in the secondary market, buying as much as they fell. He knew who was using financial leverage to beat him, but this trivial warning was nothing to him.
The big deal is that both Gaoxin Danshui and Future People Bank will be delisted and privatized. Now Future People Group no longer needs to seek loans from other banks, and its own bank is enough to complete the blood transfusion.
After completing the negotiation of the drone management regulations, Jiang Chen immediately left Xiangjiang by private jet.
However, he did not go directly back to Koro Island, but went to Morocco and got off the plane at Davao City International Airport.
It has been more than a year since the civil war. The army led by Santos used the munitions smuggled in by Jiang Chen to fight fiercely with the government army here, but now the streets and alleys here no longer see the scars of the civil war. .
Backed by the Future Group, Davao City recovered much faster than expected.
After getting off the plane, Moroccan President Santos went to the airport in person to meet Jiang Chen.
As soon as they met, Jiang Chen almost didn't recognize this guy, thinking that their president had changed.
After confirming that it was Santos, Jiang Chen couldn't help sighing in his heart, time is really like a butcher's knife. It turned out that the muscular man with the bullet belt on his shoulders had grown a belly, and the flesh on his face had also appeared.
After meeting with Santos, Jiang Chen didn't talk nonsense, and put forward his request straight to the point.
"Investment of US$1 billion in exchange for 20-year mining rights in the newly developed mining area in Valencia."
"no problem."
For Jiang Chen's proposal, Santos agreed without hesitation.
Although the price offered by the bhp mining group is slightly higher, who wants the Moro country to be a vassal of the new country? Until now, the Star Ring Trade still has a small number of garrisons in the two major cities of Cagayan and Davao, as well as a considerable number of attack drones.
With the help of the United States, the Philippines in the north is eyeing to reorganize the crippled army and navy.
The two sides signed a ceasefire agreement. The Philippines has never recognized the independence of the Moro country, nor has it given up its ambition to recover the sovereign area. At this time, if you don't hug the big tree of Xinghuan Trade tightly, you will be brain-destroyed! (To be continued.)
