"Is it just the scope of private mining?
It seems that the state is still a little cautious about foreign mining investment. ”Yang Jing touched his chin and narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself.Seeing Yang Jing's expression, Guo Dabao closed his mouth very interestingly, and after a while, Yang Jing asked, "Uncle Guo, has the scope of our survey authority been determined?"
Also, if we take it, how much survey rights can we get?
If a mine is discovered, how will the equity ratio be distributed with PNG?
”Guo Dabao said: "The specific scope has not yet been determined, but the general scope is temporarily set on Irian Island.Of course, if we are able to discover mineral resources in other provinces of the country, we can also apply for exploration and development in those provinces.Generally speaking, we now have the capital and the technology to survey and mine, and the PNG government is looking forward to us taking and exploiting the mineral resources in its territory in the past.As for the distribution of the equity ratio, it is said that if the mineral deposits are discovered, the equity distribution ratio between us and the PNG government is temporarily set at 75 to 25, but we will occupy 75 shares of the new mine, and the PNG government will take the mineral resources as a shareholder and obtain a 25 ratio. ”Yang Jing was slightly startled and said, "Uncle Guo, this ratio is generous enough." ”Of course, Guo Dabao can hear which side this so-called "generosity" refers to.In an underdeveloped country like PNG, the PNG government can directly occupy 25% of the shares by virtue of its mineral resources, which can only be said to be too generous to the Chinese government.You must know that almost all the mines in PNG are now controlled by large foreign mining companies, such as the largest copper mine in PNG, the Panguna copper mine on Bougainville Island, which is one of the largest copper mines in the world.But the nearly 60 percent controlling stake in the mine has been held by Rio Tinto.Even though 27 percent of the shares in this huge copper mine are privately owned, most of the people who hold these shares are from the wealthy Australians.There are also two of the largest copper-gold mines in PNG, the Lihir Island gold mine on Lihir Island and the Porguela copper-gold mine in central Irian Island, which are controlled by large foreign mining companies such as Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton.You know, the proven gold reserves of the Lihil Island gold mine alone are as high as 573 tons, and the reserves of the Porgela copper-gold mine are also 420 tons.These are all large gold mines worth more than 10 billion dollars.It can be said that almost all the potential mineral resources in PNG are controlled by foreign mining companies, especially from Australia, and the poor PNG government is obviously sitting on a huge amount of high-quality mineral resources, but it is difficult to obtain sufficient profits from these mineral resources.There is no way, this is the sadness of the underdeveloped countries.If you can't do it, you will inevitably be bullied!
And now the Chinese government has directly promised the PNG government 25 shares, isn't this generous?
Of course, the consideration of the top level is definitely not something that ordinary people like Guo Dabao or Yang Jing can imagine.The reason why the top level is a top level is because they stand on a high plane and look far away, so they can consider things as a whole from the perspective of the interests of the whole country.Guo Dabao pointed to it helplessly and said, "Don't you know the situation of our company?"
It's not something I can decide about at all.However, if these 25 shares can really be exchanged for a precious metal mine with low mining cost and high reserves, it is actually very worthwhile.So, didn't I just bring you here?
Xiaojing, if we throw out 25 shares, it is equivalent to throwing out 25 profits.Therefore, it depends on you whether we can start the shot of entering the international precious metal minerals. ”"Me?"
Yang Jing pointed to his nose, then shook his head and said, "Uncle Guo, don't expect too much from me.I don't even know if I can use this technique to find precious metals, so you can expect too much. ”"No problem, no problem!"
Guo Dabao was obviously very confident in the so-called "Great Wangqi Technique", rubbed his hands and said: "Xiaojing, you see if this will work, let's go to PNG tomorrow or the day after tomorrow for a spin, you first try your Great Wangqi Technique to see if it works, and after the results are available, let's talk about other things carefully."
Oh yes, Xiaoxiang just flew from Algeria to PNG last week, and things are completely on track in Algeria, and Xiaoxiang can preside over the work here. ”When Guo Dabao mentioned his son Guo Xiaoxiang, his face was full of pride, it was obvious that Guo Xiaoxiang had done a very good job in Algeria these days, otherwise Guo Dabao, the father, would not be so proud."
Xiaoxiang is also in PNG?"
Yang Jing asked in surprise, I haven't seen this fat man who has successfully lost weight for a while, and now when he mentions this guy, Yang Jing is still quite excited, "Uncle Guo, then I'll go with you, PNG is not very far from China." ”"Okay, can I arrange to book a plane ticket?"
By the way, do I need to apply for your passport?
”Yang Jing shook his head and said: "No need, I am now holding a Cypriot passport and a dual passport of the European Union, and I can go to PNG directly with a visa on arrival for 60 days." ”Guo Dabao shook his head helplessly, and gave Yang Jing a thumbs up, as if he was very envious of the benefits that this kind of guy with a double passport can enjoy.Guo Dabao's speed of work is very fast, in just one day, he called Yang Jing to inform him that it was a flight in the evening, the ticket had been booked, and he could have a dinner together in the evening and then go directly to the capital airport to take a plane.Yang Jing estimated that Guo Dabao had already completed all the formalities and was waiting for himself.However, since he promised him to go to PNG, Yang Jing drove Gege to Guo Dabao for a sumptuous dinner, and then said goodbye to Gege, who was reluctant, and boarded a flight to Singapore with Guo Dabao and seven or eight entourage.There are no direct flights from Yanjing to PNG, so instead of taking a domestic flight to stop here and there and finally arrive in Port Moresby, Yang Jing and his team might as well take a plane to Singapore first, and then transfer from Singapore to Port Moresby, the capital of PNG.Such a route is more reliable than a flight from the capital to Port Moresby, and there are few delays in between.Yang Jing and Guo Dabao took the first class, and those entourages could only take business class.When I got on the plane from the capital at night, it was still freezing, but when I arrived in Singapore, it was so hot that I hated to peel off all the skins.And when the plane took off from Singapore, flew eastward and crossed the equator, and finally landed at the Jacksons International Airport in Port Moresby, the capital of PNG, the hot flashes that hit Yang Jing even more.Yang Jing belongs to the kind of fiery physique, so don't look at his figure is not fat, but he is afraid of heat and cold.Compared to the hot sauna days in Port Moresby, which is located at about 10 degrees south latitude, Yang Jing prefers the freezing cold of the Arctic.From the VIP room in Singapore, Yang Jing and his party changed into colorful casual summer clothes, and Yang Jing was wearing an extremely fancy Aloha shirt, which didn't look like a person who came to inspect a billion-dollar business, but more like a tourist who came to travel and vacation.The group didn't have a lot of luggage, just some change of clothes and some simple information.I have to say that there is definitely a reason why Guo Dabao can make his business so big, and one of the very important reasons is Guo Dabao's character.This fat man doesn't look wide and fat, he looks happy all day long, like Maitreya Buddha, but Yang Jing discovered a very decisive side of this person's personality through his contact with Guo Dabao during this time.As long as Guo Dabao recognizes things, he will often be very decisive, coupled with his sharp eyes and careful thinking, this decisive character will often allow him to seize the fleeting business opportunities, so as to obtain the greatest benefits in it.Just like this trip to PNG, if you change to another mining company, you will usually inspect first and then investigate, and you will never invest rashly if you don't inspect it three or five times.But Guo Dabao is different, after learning that the state listed four private mining companies, including Rongbao Mining, as the first batch of lists to enter PNG mining, he immediately set off to PNG, and after staying in PNG for more than 10 days, he immediately and decisively invested more than 20 million national dollars to establish a branch of Rongbao Mining Port Moresby in Port Moresby, the capital of PNG.At this time, the other three qualified mining companies in China are still under investigation.It is not enough to just establish a branch, Guo Dabao decisively transferred Wu Zepeng, the boss of the Yanjing branch, to temporarily take charge of the work here.is different from Zhao Meng who is far away in San Francisco, Zhao Meng can only be regarded as Guo Dabao's partner, and Wu Zepeng is Guo Dabao's real right-hand man and confidant, who has followed Guo Dabao since he started and has been going on until now.In the first half of the year, Yang Jing drank with Wu Zepeng once for Jiang Bin's ex-wife Zheng Yating's work.So Yang Jing is very clear about Wu Zepeng's ability.The Port Moresby branch that has just been established has him in charge, and Yang Jing is also very relieved.After coming out of the airport, Yang Jing saw Wu Zepeng and three people picking up the plane outside the gate.Because there were nine people in Yang Jing's group, Wu Zepeng brought three cars, all of which were high-horsepower off-road vehicles.After all, PNG has a lot of mountainous areas, and most of PNG's mineral resources, especially metal minerals, are mostly located in mountainous areas, so this kind of high-horsepower off-road vehicle is far more reliable than those cars.After the two groups met, they exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then they got into the car together and went straight to the location of the Port Moresby branch of Rongbao Mining.
