Lucheng.

A Sukhoi Super 100 aircraft was getting lower and lower in the sky, getting bigger and bigger. The shadows and huge roars of the fuselage caused some people to subconsciously look into the sky. However, for people living near Takasaki, they have long been used to planes passing by overhead. Apart from some amazing how huge the planes are, they don’t feel that there is any big reaction.

There are few strange things.

Soon, the plane slowly landed on the runway of Takasaki International Airport. An Hui-Hoji, who had been waiting at the airport for a long time, looked at the time in his hand and hurriedly met.

The plane gradually stopped.

When the cabin door opened, Shen Jiannan walked out of the cabin and stood on the suspension ladder and stretched.

"Thank you for your hard work along the way!"

That's not the case. The bumpy and slap of the journey back and forth is so tiring.

But there is no need to tell An Huihaoer about these things. Shen Jiannan called someone to stay and took care of Lu Xinyue and Shen Yimei, who were still resting, and started to greet An Huihaoer.

"An Huisang has been working so hard recently, so you should pay more attention to your health!"

An Hui-Hoji's eyes were covered with bloodshots, and his sideburns seemed to have a lot of white hair than before. His face was a little haggard, and he seemed to have not had a good rest for a long time.

But when this guy heard Shen Jiannan's words, he suddenly became excited as if he had chicken blood.

"Thank you Qiushanjun for your concern, it's not hard work. I have fully understood the organizational framework of Ludao Shipyard. Whether it is geographical location, personnel configuration or site planning, it is very suitable for our requirements..."

“…”

Southeast Province is located in a coastal area and has a topography of "eight mountains, one water and one branch of fields". The rivers are short and the plains are scarce. The mountainous area accounts for about 90% of the total land area. The remaining land that can be cultivated is red soil and red soil that are not suitable for planting crops.

Since ancient times, the agricultural development here has been unfavorable and the economy is backward. For a long period of historical period, the local area was very poor and destitute, and many people lived a hungry life.

But as one sentence says, God closes a door for people and opens another window. The narrow and winding coastline makes the sea transportation convenient and well-connected here. Therefore, many people choose to carry their bags and go to Southeast Asia to find a way out when local development is unfavorable.

However, there was no developed navigation technology in ancient times. Wanting to travel across the ocean to make a living elsewhere was a very risky thing. I don’t know how many people were riding fishing boats and rushing into the distant and unknown seas, they died in the vast sea.

Culture is always passed down and glorious in life.

By the middle of the Song Dynasty, generations of people had their lives at sea and developed large ships that could fight against huge waves on the sea.

In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, with the three treasure eunuchs building ships in the southeast and making great achievements in the Southeast Asia, China's ship repair industry also emerged and developed rapidly in the developed maritime trade.

In the late Ming Dynasty, Zheng Chenggong built an iron-clad ship with artillery here. With the help of his brother Takawa Shisaemon, he traveled to Taiwan to fight against the Dutch colonists. If it was necessary to define it, this shipyard can be said to be the first captain in modern Chinese history to have a naval fleet.

By the Qing Dynasty, especially after the establishment of trade as the Five Ports, the shipbuilding industry flourished with the active fishery and the demand for economic development.

In the late Qing Dynasty, because the Qing government was unable to resist the invasion of foreign races, it had to open the coastal and trade on both sides of the coast. The British took a fancy to the geographical location of Lucheng and established a new Ludao Shipyard here in 1858, creating the first modern steel cargo ship.

It has the first 1,000-ton granite dry dock in China, and it is one of the birthplaces of modern Chinese industries.

British writer Martin once called it "the first seedling in the Chinese machine industry."

In 1983, Ludao Shipyard took the lead in moving from the military product market to the international ship market, producing the first batch of various ship freighters exported to Hong Kong and Peru in the country.

It can be said that due to its special geographical location, Ludao Shipyard has witnessed many firsts in the Chinese shipbuilding industry.

Ludao Shipyard, in the historical precipitation, gradually abandoned technology and eliminated military ships after several mergers, mainly focused on maritime trade bulk cargo ships. Relying on overseas export orders and maritime trade ship orders, it was once the number one in heavy industry tax payments in Ludao.

But no matter how brilliant the history is, it cannot withstand the erosion of time.

With the end of the Gulf War, coalition forces withdrew from Iraq, oil-producing countries in the Middle East increased their supply of crude oil. The crazy output supply hit the crude oil price sharply in just one year, and crude oil surged and began to fall out of a plunge mode, falling from a maximum of 22 US dollars per barrel to 11 US dollars per barrel.

In addition, the Asian economic turmoil caused by the bursting of Japan's economic bubble, the expansion of oil companies' production capacity caused by the Soviet split, and no one could guess how much crude oil would fall like a waterfall.

As prices fall, no one can make money.

Under the mechanism of economic transmission, freight rates for bulk and large freighters plummeted simultaneously, and the Baltic Index also fell by 60%.

It rained all night long.

The European currency crisis has led to economic turmoil in Europe, with sharp decline in automobile sales and sharp decline in industrial equipment sales, and various industries have highlighted a huge industry crisis.

Copper ore and iron ore have almost fallen by half.

This fall, there is a problem with the decline.

Two years ago, Ludao Shipyard undertakes the 13,500-ton bulk cargo ship of the British-American United Mining Group.

Value, $180 million.

However, when the construction and delivery were completed and delivered half a year ago, the ship owner of the United Kingdom and the United States chose to abandon the ship and default.

Because, according to industry rules, a deposit of 20% is generally collected in advance for ship construction, but due to the plummeting commodity prices in the international market and the rapid decline in freight costs, the prices of finished ships also fell simultaneously.

It is so low that if you follow the market price, you only need 50% of the original ship to customize it.

As the original production capacity expanded, the United Kingdom and the United States had to choose to stop work to reduce input costs, and there was no need to add new ships for transportation.

In other words, if the ship owner purchases a pre-customized ship at the original price, it will directly cause a loss of 30%, and the ship obtained will not be used for any purpose.

Therefore, the United Kingdom-American United Mining Company chose to abandon the ship.

This abandoned ship was a huge nightmare for Ludao Shipyard.

Like most companies, Ludao Shipyard built these thirteen bulk carriers, and most of the funds were borrowed from banks.

Once the shipowner abandons the ship, it means that all these freights are hit by the shipyard itself.

Coupled with the continued sluggish shipping market, even after another half a year, Ludao Shipyard did not sell these ships.

If you can't sell the ship, you can't exchange the bank's money.

With insolvency, Ludao Shipyard has only one way to go.

Waiting for bankruptcy.

But for First Industrial Co., Ltd., the meaning is completely different.

First Industrial Co., Ltd. has been working with Kawasaki for many years and is far ahead of Ludao Shipyard in the manufacturing of supporting facilities for ship heavy industry. It has also acquired the Baltic Shipyard. With the technology mastered by First Industrial Co., Ltd., it can completely build a brand new ship heavy industry enterprise.

In order to choose an excellent factory site, An Huihaoer traveled around the coast of China for countless round trips. When he found out about the preparations of Ludao Shipyard, he was so excited that he didn't sleep well for several nights.

This is like someone gives you a pillow when you are sleepy.

There is a perfect site, complete dock supporting facilities, and even materials and workers, and there is no shortage of everything.

As long as you invest a certain amount of money, you can regain your vitality.

"I have seen it in the factory before. There are three docks in the factory that can fully meet our needs. Most of the workers are young and middle-aged people under the age of 40, willing to endure hardships and work hard. Although the cultural level is generally not high, it can fully meet our needs for ordinary workers."

"And, the labor cost here is really too low. I really can't imagine that a five-year welder's salary is only 600 yuan."

“…”

"I have seen their leaders, and I found that they have regarded this shipyard as a burden and can't wait to throw it away."

“…”

"The total budget budget budgeter has calculated that we only need to invest 15 million US dollars at most, and we can revitalize this shipyard."

“…”

Shen Jiannan didn't know whether he should laugh or be helpless.

It is impossible for crude oil prices to keep falling like this. It is obvious that An Hui-Hoji also knows this.

Non-renewable resources have a limit to the decline. When the market price recovers, the more than a dozen ships in Ludao Shipyard will probably make ten times the profit.

This is a super cheap.

What Ludao Shipyard is missing now is money.

But a penny can stump the hero... The dozen ships alone are worth more than one billion US dollars, but now they can only be sold as waste.

These guys are so fucking prodigal.

"What do you say about Ludao?"

"Their meaning is of course that we hope we will accept it as soon as possible, and it depends on what the adults mean now."

"There is no hurry to do this. You can continue to hang them, but don't agree or agree."

"Sir! Ludao Shipyard is really suitable for our requirements..."

"I'll take you to meet someone tomorrow, and you'll understand."
Chapter completed!
