Looking at the whole of China, the most suitable area for coal and iron joint ventures is the Northeast, that is, Benxi, Anshan, Fushun and other places. Coal and iron resources are rich, the taste is extremely high, and the development value is great. It is here that the foundation of China's heavy industry was born.
, Zhang Tinglan naturally knows that he has already set his sights here.
However, his actions were already too late. During the Russo-Japanese War, the Benxi Lake Coal and Iron Company had been established and illegal exploration work was also carried out in Anshan. Not long ago, the Japanese also passed Yu Chonghan to ask Lao Zhang
He made a request to develop Anshan's iron ore resources and establish Anshan Iron Works, which was the predecessor of Showa Steel Works.
The Japanese have shown crazy ambitions for coal and iron resources. Zhang Tinglan knows this clearly. As a rapidly industrializing country, the demand for steel is quite astonishing. However, the Japanese archipelago has no way to provide it. The Japanese will naturally
Set your sights on the Northeast.
However, Zhang Tinglan has always hoped to establish Fengtian's own heavy industry system. Without steel as a support, there would be no modern army. Therefore, incorporating Fengtian's resources into his own pocket has been Zhang Tinglan's long-term goal. The two sides are on this issue.
It can be said that the tip of the needle is right.
When Zhang Tinglan asked for the shares of the Coal and Iron Company, not only Kihachiro Okura, but also the lost land couldn't sit still. They stared wide-eyed. This warlord Zhang didn't want guns, cannons, or even money.
But he stared at the steel company, which made Shi Tian feel frightened. Zhang Zuolin's eyes were so vicious!
"Zhang Sang, the distribution of shares in the Coal and Iron Company was negotiated between us and the former Qing Dynasty and cannot be changed. Moreover, this is not something Mr. Okura can decide. The Japanese government will never agree to it."
"Mr. Shida, why did you forget what you said so quickly? Don't you have no opinion on how to solve it? Are the shares of Benxi Lake Coal and Iron Company in the hands of the Japanese government or Okura?
"
"Of course it is in the hands of Mr. Okura, but the products of Benxi Lake Coal and Iron Company need to supply Japan's military needs. Currently, China and Japan each hold 50% of the shares, which is already the biggest concession for the empire. Don't have any wishful thinking.
!”
Zhang Tinglan sneered: "You are talking about product supply issues, which have nothing to do with the company's equity. Even if we in Fengtian have the controlling power, we will still sell to the Japanese."
Zhang Tinglan is right. For the time being, Fengtian does not have the ability to consume a large amount of steel. It still needs to be sold to the Japanese. But it does not mean that there will be no future. As long as you hold the controlling stake in your hands, you can dominate the business strategy in the future. Of course, in this case Zhang Tinglan
It won't be said out loud.
"In any case, Benxihu Coal and Iron Company involves Japan's national interests. It has exceeded the scope of our agreement. Please change the conditions."
"As long as Japanese interests are involved, you are so domineering. Then if you send killers to assassinate China's frontier officials, isn't it an act of declaring war?"
"The assassination has nothing to do with the Japanese government!"
"It has nothing to do with whether Date Junnosuke is an active military officer in Japan or how many of the murderers are serving in the military. If Japan doesn't mind, let's announce it and see what the international community thinks.
The Japanese government is innocent!"
Faced with Zhang Tinglan's stern questioning, Shi Tian's momentum weakened. Although he said it had nothing to do with the Japanese government, in fact, without the tacit approval of the military, people like Date Junnosuke did not dare to act so recklessly. In the final analysis, what they represented was
Japanese official will.
Zhang Tinglan saw that Shitian's momentum was weakening, and continued: "Mr. Shitian, if the Japanese official insists on intervening in our transaction with Okura, then Fengtian will have no choice but to announce the truth of the matter. If you can maintain restraint, I can guarantee that this will happen."
It's just a change in equity, and it will definitely not affect Japan's interests. On the contrary, we can expand the scale of the steel plant and develop deeper cooperation with you. Both parties will benefit from it. Where to go depends on the wisdom of you Japanese people."
Shitian's face was livid, he stared at Zhang Tinglan, and said viciously: "You are blackmailing the Japanese government. Aren't you afraid of our revenge? The Japanese Imperial Army can kill Fengtian at any time and crush you all!"
Zhang Tinglan looked at Shitian. He was not worried. As the saying goes, a biting dog does not show its teeth. Now that Shitian is shouting so fiercely, he must not be ready for war. He is just scaring people. Since he talks about scaring people,
, Zhang Tinglan won’t be polite either.
"Mr. Shitian, little Fengtian will definitely not be able to defeat your majestic Japanese Empire. We will not attack the stone with an egg. If you attack us, we can only escape." At this point, Zhang Tinglan showed a sneer on his face: "Hundreds of thousands,
Millions of refugees will go north and flock to the Russian Far East. At that time, the Russian Far East will definitely be in chaos, and even Russia will be in chaos. The entire Eastern Front battlefield will be in chaos. I think as a member of the Allied Powers, the Japanese will not
I would be willing to see this day!"
Everyone here never expected that Zhang Tinglan would come up with such an incredible idea. The Japanese attacked us. Fengtian did not want to fight, but instead broke the pot to disrupt Russia.
It seems crazy, but these words are indeed very intimidating. Without the restraint of the Eastern Front, Germany may be able to quickly sweep Britain and France. By then, the world structure will undergo drastic changes, and the Japanese cannot afford such consequences.
And Britain and France will not take this risk.
Shitian was so angry that he trembled. He pointed at Zhang Tinglan and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "You are acting rogue!"
"In the face of murderers, any means we use are justified!"
Shitian was speechless immediately and sat blankly on the Taishi chair, but his mind was spinning crazily. Should he hand over the controlling stake? This question is indeed too difficult to decide. Coal and iron are the lifeblood of Japan. Without
Without sufficient steel, how could Japan make guns and cannons and build huge battleships?
But he refused and Zhang Zuolin released the evidence in his hands. The Japanese government would soon face an unprecedented crisis with unpredictable consequences. It was really a difficult choice. Shi Tian closed his eyes in pain and said nothing.
Zhang Tinglan set her sights on Okura Kihachiro again and sneered: "Mr. Okura, you have been in business for many years, so you don't understand that the most important thing for a businessman is credibility. If someone knows that you specialize in buying and killing people behind your back,
Husband, how can you gain a foothold in the business world if you tell me who will cooperate with you?"
Okura Kihachiro's mind has long been messed up. As a wealthy chaebol, Okura's thoughts are not the same as losing his land. If Zhang Zuolin makes the evidence public, no matter how the Japanese government responds, one thing is certain.
That is to say, Okura will definitely be ruined and even destroyed.
After all, Kawashima Naniwa's role as a scapegoat is too light, and he probably won't be able to escape. Therefore, the question before Okura is not a question of agreement or disagreement, but a choice between cutting off the flesh or taking off the head.
After thinking about this clearly, Okura Kihachiro gritted his teeth and said: "The shares of Benxi Lake Coal and Iron Company can be negotiated, but we must not give you 20%, and you must sign a sales agreement to ensure that products are provided to Japan first.
military."
As soon as Okura said these words, Zhang Tinglan showed a smile on his face. He finally broke through a gap and built a steel plant from scratch. Not only did it require a huge investment, but it also required suitable site selection and talent training.
There is no way we can do it in just a few years, and now we have run out of time.
If I can take advantage of this opportunity to get the controlling power, use the equity steadily and steadily, and make Benxihu Coal and Iron Company available to me, it will undoubtedly be the best shortcut, especially since this factory has also devoted the efforts of the Japanese and used
The factories built by the Japanese turned around and attacked the Japanese. Nothing in the world would be so comfortable these days.
"A sales agreement can be signed, but the term must be limited and cannot exceed five years. The price must also refer to the market price. As for the shares, it can be reduced to 18%."
Okura shook his head like a rattle. He currently controls 50% of the shares. If he gave up 18%, it would be equivalent to one-third. How could he agree?
"Fifteen percent, this is the final limit, otherwise our deal will not be able to continue."
Okura Kihachiro was also caught in a dilemma for a while, and suddenly Shitada spoke up: "One or two percentage points are negotiable, but one or twenty is not enough. Don't even think about taking advantage of it."
"Okay, according to what Mr. Shitian said, we only need 1% of the shares, and we have a deal!"
Shi Tian was stunned. He had never seen anyone negotiate terms like this. Just now he was insisting that 15% was the bottom line, but how could it become 1% in the blink of an eye? This caught everyone off guard.
.
In fact, in Zhang Tinglan's view, not to mention 1%, even 0.1% is fine, because it means absolute controlling power. Originally, the two sides were evenly matched. The Japanese controlled the management and also controlled the sales, which was equivalent to turning the factory into a factory.
It becomes its own, but once this one percentage point of equity changes, the Fengtian government will be the well-deserved owner of the factory. How it develops in the future is not a matter for the Japanese to have the final say.
From this point of view, Zhang Tinglan just wants a head start. As for the benefits, he really doesn’t care. According to the Sino-Japanese joint venture, one percent of the shares was only 20,000 yuan. Now the most is
It's only 50,000 yuan. For this little money, it doesn't seem worth fighting for.
But the meaning behind this is that half a million oceans, or even five million, cannot be exchanged, so Zhang Tinglan is still very satisfied. Both Shitian and Okura Kihachiro's faces were extremely ugly at this time. Shitian still wanted to deny it, but he also
He couldn't find a reason, and he wasn't very clear about the meaning of this one percent, so he was a little stunned.
On the contrary, Zhang Tinglan continued to smile and said: "We have made such a big concession, and we also hope that Japan can provide some loans. I think it will be five million for the time being. Of course, we will not use the money randomly. We will use it all." What do you two think about purchasing Japanese machines and introducing Japanese technicians?" (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
