If this matter can be passed, it means that there must be higher-level forces involved...

Could it be that someone above is going to provide benefits for this Yimiao development?

"Thank you for your trust, I will start arranging this matter immediately."

Putting aside her doubts, Gao Yuan immediately told Hu Yonghua that she would actively promote the matter and supervise it personally.

Originally, this was Bai Yeji's business, and Hu Yonghua should have gone to talk to Hu Yifei. However, since they bypassed his own son to find him, it was probably to avoid suspicion, so Gao Yuan made the decision and agreed on Bai Yeji's behalf.

"Hu City, you are so supportive of our company, of course we cannot fail to express it."

Gao Yuan pondered for a moment, then suddenly said.

"Ah?" Hu Yonghua, who was relieved to have completed the old man's task, was obviously stunned when he heard Gao Yuan's words.

express?

What does it mean? Could it be...

"Director Gao, public is public and private is private. I do this without any intention of asking for anything in return." Hu Yonghua said sternly.

"Haha! You misunderstood. What I meant was that I wanted to place an order with the government on behalf of the group." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"Place an order?" Hu Yonghua was startled.

"Yes, I would like to ask your help to place a shipbuilding order with a shipbuilding company in the province."

"Shipbuilding order?" Hu Yonghua looked at Gao Yuan with some confusion, and then suddenly realized.

I'm afraid you got a taste of the sweetness on those 8 large oil tankers not long ago. Do you want to do it again?

"But I remember that your company just acquired 49% of the shares of Bincheng Shipyard not long ago?

If you want to build new ships, wouldn't it be better to give the order to your own company?" Hu Yonghua asked puzzledly.

After all, the money doesn’t flow to outsiders, right?

"Haha! Our order this time is a bit large, and we are in a hurry. Bincheng Shipyard alone may not be able to accommodate it for a while."

"Ah?" Hu Yonghua was stunned.

He was previously responsible for the bailout of the Bincheng Shipyard and had some understanding of its production capacity.

As far as he knows, the Bincheng Shipyard has a total of eight large shipyards and can build eight large cargo ships at the same time.

Moreover, the last cheating order has just ended, and the market is also sluggish. There should still be many shipyards vacant.

Quantity a bit too much?

If there is one more high-tech person like you, so many shipyards can’t handle it?

Could it be that they want to build some kind of special ship?

"What ship do you want to book?" Hu Yonghua asked.

"I mainly want to buy some car roll-off wheels, container ships, LNG ships and breeding ships. The total number is about 30 ships. If there are sufficient funds in the future, I may add additional orders."

"Wha...what?"

Hu Yonghua took a deep breath.

3...30 ships?

Maybe more will be added later?

Just kidding!

That’s 30 big ships! Not 30 small sampans!

Even if you don’t know much about the shipping market cost, leaving aside the strange-sounding breeding ship, the other types are all large cargo ships, and there are even special ships such as LNG. It is conservatively estimated that the total cost of 30 ships is adequate.

More than 3 billion…

I'm talking about US dollars!

That is a super large order of over 20 billion RMB!

It would be fine if they were international ocean giants, but your job is to be technical, right?

If you don't work hard on technology, are you planning to form an ocean-going fleet to go to sea?

What's more, given the current size of the other party, let's not talk about whether there is so much cash flow...

Such heavy assets will definitely affect the development of the company, right?!

"Director Gao, are you kidding me?"

"Of course, I can't joke about this kind of thing, our company does have a need in this regard.

Of course, I also have the strength in this area." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

Hu Yonghua's estimate is quite accurate. The current cost of a car roller is about 50 million RMB, a container ship is 500 million, and LNG is 1 billion... According to the current market price, the total cost of this order is indeed more than 20 billion RMB.

But the total cost is one thing, and the cash that needs to be paid out at once is another.

The shipbuilding cycle of these large ships often takes half a year to a year, which is a sufficient buffer period for Gao Yuan to raise enough final payment.

According to convention, the down payment ratio for shipbuilding orders is generally 20%, which is 4 billion RMB.

Moreover, the ships Gao Yuan ordered this time were all internationally accepted standard freighters, unlike the previous order from Bincheng Shipyard, which had special construction requirements and was not conducive to resale.

Even if the customer cancels the order, the shipyard can resell it to ensure that it will not lose money.

For a standard order like this, the down payment ratio can continue to decrease.

If it is a large-scale centralized purchase order of 30 ships, the down payment ratio can continue to be negotiated. In the end, it is not impossible to place an order with a minimum advance payment of 10%...

In other words, Gao Yuan only needs to spend 2 billion to leverage this sky-high super order!

This is 10x leverage.

For ordinary people, this means a very high risk, but for the foresight Meng Lang, he only hopes that this lever can be as long as possible, long enough to allow him to leverage the future of the earth...

As for the 2 billion down payment...

Gao Yuan just received 13.6 billion from Gaosheng. In addition to the investment in large-scale projects such as the automobile production line and Guizhou cloud computing center that have been allocated, there is probably about 1.5 billion left.

Together with the 500 million that Hu Yonghua just sent, we just have enough start-up capital.

When she originally saw the plan, Gao Yuan thought she would have to wait at least a few more months, but she did not expect that the speed of fund raising was much faster than she expected.

Planning can start in advance...

She didn't know why Meng Lang was so sure of the subsequent market trend, but the investment in Bincheng Shipyard had confirmed Meng Lang's accurate prediction ability.

So faced with this somewhat crazy "advanced version" shipbuilding plan, she chose unconditional trust.

"Uh... Director Gao, although it may be a little offensive to say this, we are very lucky to be able to resell the previous eight oil tankers. I'm afraid this kind of thing will never happen again..."

Hu Yonghua couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said with some difficulty.

When middlemen make price differences, they take advantage of information gaps, but information gaps cannot always exist.

In his opinion, Gao Yuan was still too young. She was dazzled by the temporary victory and actually wanted to gamble again.

And the bet this time is even bigger, that means almost all your wealth is being bet!

It is rumored that Director Gao likes to be all in. This evaluation is so correct...

"Haha! The reason why we made such a decision is not all for resale...

In short, you don’t have to worry, we naturally have our strategic investment plan.

Do you think that as a businessman, I would not do unprofitable things?"

"This..." Hu Yonghua couldn't refute.

Although from a process perspective, this senior executive seems to be taking huge risks.

But in terms of results, the other party always gets the most generous rewards in the end...

The so-called high risk and high reward.

Maybe this is the world of genius, and the wisdom of mortals can only be revealed later?

After confirming that the other party was not joking, Hu Yonghua's heart started beating rapidly.

20 billion... That's a super big order of 20 billion...

Let alone a city, even if it were placed in the entire province, it would probably be able to attract one or two percentage points...

Political achievement! This is truly a super political achievement!

"What you just meant, Director Gao, is that you want me to take the lead in leading several large shipyards in the province to digest this order?" Hu Yonghua said in a dry voice.

China has three major shipbuilding bases, one of which is located in the Yangtze River Delta region centered on Shanghai.

There are 30 large ships of various types, and they seem to be in a hurry. The local idle shipyards in Suzhou City may not be able to absorb them for a while, and the orders will definitely overflow outside the city.

Although the market is now showing some signs of warming, major shipowners are still in the final wait-and-see period, and shipyards are still in urgent need of orders.

Once the news spread that he has 30 shipbuilding orders...

I am afraid that several major state-owned shipbuilding companies in the province will flock here.
