After a night's rest, in the morning, after enjoying the warm hospitality of the owner in markridge's manor again, the party finally began to sit down and chat.
There were a lot of people who chatted this time. In addition to the few people we met last night, we also met with leaders in all aspects of Glencore, such as the heads of copper trade, iron trade and grain trade. These people belong to the company's partners and hold most of Glencore's shares.
Similarly, after a chat, Li Feng also had a general guess. Mark Ritchie and his original partner green really had a big say in Glencore. In addition to these two people, even the two people in Glencore still held a lot of shares, which were hidden. Li Feng had a guess from the beginning.
Although markridge has been completely separated from Glencore on the surface, it has dozens of Companies in Zug, Switzerland. There are several trading companies in public, and the rest are hidden by means of cross shareholding and a large number of offshore companies.
Perhaps the annual revenue of these unknown companies is in the unit of 10 billion, and even these companies secretly hold the shares of many commodity trading giants such as Glencore and Vitol.
If Li Feng really wants to insert Glencore, he should make a good investigation, otherwise he won't be sold by others and count the money for them. Naturally, if we can really come together with these big men, it will be bright in terms of influence and money.
"John, we're curious. How did you think of getting involved in the commodity trade?" After some greetings, markridge asked Li Feng curiously.
"Haha... Mark, I think you should know that I have an energy company. Similarly, I have established a resource company. Unfortunately, most of the world's energy resources are owned now. It's not easy for me to enter, and Glencore is a good partner in my opinion.
As far as I know, Glencore has now begun to intervene in the upstream chain of minerals such as energy resources and acquire some mineral resources. I am very optimistic about this. After all, we all know that these are non renewable resources and use less.
Of course, if it is purely about the ability to make money, I think we all know that high-tech industries are the most profitable, such as today's Internet industry, computer software and hardware industry, etc., but I always maintain a principle that I can't put the plate in one basket.
Besides, making money is not my only purpose now. Sometimes money can't represent everything, can it? " Li Feng explained with a smile.
......
In fact, these explanations are clear to everyone. After all, the profits of Li Feng's high-tech companies are very rich, while the profits of commodity trading companies are much inferior.
Obviously, Li Feng's intervention is not for profit, but for the invisible influence. After all, it involves the energy and mineral industries, which can involve the national strategies of countries around the world, and the potential influence is huge.
"We heard that now your team is still negotiating with Bangui. John, don't you worry about the stall being too big?"
"Ha ha... I don't worry. In fact, everyone who knows me knows that as long as everyone can work together, I will be the best investor shareholder. Of course, if anyone thinks I can play around at will, maybe I will talk to him."
"Hehe... If you can play with St. John Lee at will, anyone in the world can play with it at will. I think anyone will cooperate with you carefully."
"Mark, as long as we are sincere, I am the best partner. This has been proved by a lot of reality. I think you should all know my major companies. Those managers are now regarded as shareholders rather than working. They all have sufficient rights and obligations.
Of course, now the world is facing a rare feast of economic transformation. A new economic model with computers and the Internet as the core is taking shape. My partners and I look forward to it. "
"The new economy, to be honest, we laymen are full of interest. After all, no one can refuse the temptation of dollars, can't we?"
"Ha ha..."
“...”
Li Feng's meaning is very clear. If I enter Glencore, you are generally in charge. As long as you don't think I'm a newcomer and easy to bully, you may have to talk about it.
Similarly, it shows the support for today's Glencore business strategy. Glencore has now begun to set foot in the upstream of energy resources and become a supplier plus trader model, not just a simple trader.
Markridge also hinted that you St. John Lee are not ordinary people and fools. They don't want to deceive you. If they cooperate, they are absolutely sincere.
Naturally, if we cooperate, as the best partners, we can naturally share all kinds of dividends with each other. For example, Li Feng threw out Internet dividends. Markrich and they also expressed great interest in this. After all, this is directly equivalent to "giving money" to others, and they are naturally happy to accept it.
......
At least from the current exchange, both sides have shown their sincerity. As for the final result, no one knows for the time being. After all, if we really want to cooperate, it can not be decided immediately after a simple chat.
In fact, the two sides only expressed their attitude at this meeting. At least for now, it's good. Mark Ritchie and Glencore need Li Feng's influence in the United States to help mark Ritchie and Glencore. Bi mark Ritchie and Glencore are on the blacklist of the United States. After all, the United States is the only superpower in the world, Li Feng also needs the influence of an international trade giant such as Glencore. It can be said that both sides are happy.
At least we had a good start. Next, we didn't talk about the details and began to really chat at will. From politics to economy to romance and snow moon, from Africa to the Middle East, to Europe, America and even Asia, the rambling casual chat opened Li Feng's eyes.
To tell the truth, when it comes to the real understanding of the world, Li Feng must admit that he is far from the understanding of these commodity trading giants. After all, they cooperate with giants in various countries and between countries, and there are too many tricks.
Li Feng is well-informed now, but he is still surprised by many secret things they say, which can only make Li Feng sigh. Compared with those private and dark things, he is really a little Aries.
In fact, if Li Feng really wants to participate in his own career, he may have been blackened for a long time. Whether it is Michelle energy company, real estate company, military giant and lawyer industry, these industries are deeply involved. After all, they are faced with various interests. If he really wants to participate, it is estimated that the whole person will have been blackened long ago.
However, Li Feng chose to give it to professionals, which is still a good choice. Although facing the so-called test of the loyalty of professionals in all aspects, when Li Feng's intelligence agencies, financial audit agencies and even personal security protection agencies are fully involved, these professionals give Li Feng full protection.
After all, there is mutual supervision everywhere in your personal life. Since you can enjoy a good life, you don't need to ask for trouble. Most people still understand the truth. Of course, some people will not be satisfied, but most of them have no good results.
Li Feng now looks at the reports sent by major companies every day and makes some predictive instructions in line with the historical trend, which not only ensures his wisdom and foresight, but also keeps away from the dark side of those events.
......
In the next two days, Li Feng spent a few days in Zug, visited the famous Glencore company and learned how commodity trading giants like Glencore controlled global commodity trade.
Similarly, I took a holiday for myself. I visited the famous Swiss resort lucerne lake and tielish snow mountain for a while, and the idea of buying luxury houses and manors by lucerne Lake arose, laughing that I wanted to be a neighbor with rich.
