Chapter 410: Strong foundation, opponent is helpless!
Last night, Li Zetian showed his prowess and defeated two peerless beauties in a row, and Hugang was able to revive!
When I wake up early in the morning, I feel refreshed and extra energetic.
After breakfast, I went online.
The movie "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" has become popular after last night's word-of-mouth promotion. On the IMDB (Internet Movie Database) website, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" has a score of 9.4, which is a rare high-scoring movie. Basically, the movie review section is praising this movie.
"I'm not bragging, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is so good. This movie will definitely set off a magic craze around the world!"
"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is the most surprising movie this year!"
"After watching "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", I especially wanted to find King's Cross Station. King's Cross Station is the departure station of the Hogwarts Express! I just don't know if there is a King's Cross Station in London, England. Stations of the Cross?”
"..."
Li Zetian sighed: "The novel itself is excellent, coupled with the excellent film production, no matter in the past or present, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" will still be popular!"
…
At 8:30 in the morning, Selena and Vanessa rushed to work.
"Have you had breakfast? If not, just eat it here." Li Zetian asked.
"Thank you Mr. Li, we have eaten." Selena and Vanessa said in unison.
"Well," Li Zetian nodded, and then asked, "Have Nucor Steel and Vale responded to their messages?"
"Mr. Li, the chairman of Nucor Steel Company said that he may not be able to comply with your request. However, he does not want to offend you. He hopes to cooperate with you and guarantees that he can provide the best preferential terms!" Celine Na said.
Li Zetian shook his head, very dissatisfied with this answer. Li Zetian's purpose is to completely control a steel company, so there is no need to continue talking.
"Is Chronos Steel registered?"
"We have already sent people to register, and it will be approved in a few days."
"Well, very good. From now on, dig people for me. Steel technical talents all over the world are our goals!" Li Zetian said solemnly, "The foundation of industry is the steel factory, and we must definitely control it in our own hands. !”
"Understood!" Selina responded loudly.
"Okay, what about Vale in Brazil?" Li Zetian looked at Vanessa.
Vanessa smiled and said, "Mr. Li, you want to sign a long-term contract with them. It's too late for them to be happy. How can you refuse?"
"Well, that's true!" Li Zetian smiled.
"Mr. Li, do we need to buy some more mines from other places? If something goes wrong with Vale, we won't be caught off guard." Vanessa asked.
Li Zetian thought for a while and replied: "Well, you are right. As the saying goes, 'Don't put all your eggs in the same basket.' We really can't rely entirely on Vale. In this way, you have people buy some mines. , the scale does not need to be too large, it is enough to be able to cope with temporary crises. Oh, by the way, some rare metal mines, remember to have more, the better, maybe they will be needed in the future."
During the 2008 financial crisis, steel prices plummeted and countless mining companies went bankrupt. Li Zetian doesn't have to suffer this loss. Mining the earth's minerals is equivalent to sitting on nothing. If you want to mine, go to outer space to mine.
The level of aerospace technology in this life is several years ahead of that in the previous life. Coupled with Li Zetian's willingness to spend huge sums of money, it will not be difficult to mine the moon in his lifetime.
The moon is rich in mineral resources, including cobalt, gold, palladium, titanium, tungsten and uranium. Of course, the most valuable resource is a gas called helium-3, which can be used as a raw material for future nuclear reactors. Helium-3 is an extremely rare material on earth, and each ton of helium-3 is worth billions of dollars! ! !
Today, all nuclear power plants generate heat and generate electricity through nuclear fission. Specifically, in today's nuclear reactors, neutrons smash atoms such as uranium and plutonium, which releases atomic energy but also produces highly toxic nuclear waste. In contrast, in future nuclear power plants, the two fuels can be brought together more safely, and helium-3 will appear here. Because it can be used with deuterium to power nuclear power plants, the only by-products are helium atoms and free protons. Nuclear power plants using helium-3 and deuterium still have great potential to provide safe energy for the future world.
To avoid the hassle of transporting physical materials over a distance of 250,000 miles, future lunar colonies may use microwaves or lasers to send energy directly to Earth. This energy could be generated by nuclear power plants on the moon, or by large solar panels built from lunar materials that stretch across the lunar surface. If these become a reality, the moon may become the next superpower, relying only on some supplies from the earth, but dominating the earth's economy!
…
Three days later, Kronos Steel Company was established and began intensive development.
At the same time, the people Li Zetian sent to negotiate with Brazil's Vale also signed a long-term contract with the other party. Although Kronos Steel has just started, its abundant funds and its own huge demand are enough to create a powerful steel empire! ! !
The emergence of Kronos Steel Company has changed the entire steel industry.
However, if you look at the world's most powerful industrial companies, which one does not have its own steel plant, let's just say South Korea's Hyundai Group, which makes cars, has Hyundai Steel Company.
At this moment, the most anxious ones are U.S. Steel and Nucor Steel. Previously, Li Zetian had been one of the major customers of these two steel companies.
In an office building in New York.
Executives from U.S. Steel and Nucor Steel came together.
The middle-aged man sitting first on the right said in a deep voice: "Obviously, Kronos Steel Company will definitely be a competitor of our two companies in the future. I feel that we cannot let him grow bigger and stronger so smoothly. Why not join forces to ban it and let Chronos Li know how deep the water in this industry is?"
"Block it? Is it easier said than done? Let's block it so that Chronos Li can hand over orders to other steel companies?"
"That's it! There are so many steel companies around the world, they are eager to watch the show! At the moment, Chronos Steel Company is very small, but the industry under Chronos Li's name requires a huge amount of steel, so it naturally needs to be purchased from other steel companies! Don’t you want to make money, and others don’t want to make money either? Unless you can unite the world’s most powerful steel companies, but this is obviously impossible!”
"..."
Everyone discussed for a long time but could not come up with a good solution. It seemed that they could only sit back and watch the rise of Kronos Steel Company.
Even if Cronos Steel only provides steel to the industries under Li Zetian's name, it is enough to support a powerful steel company.
Deeply helpless!
It's not that I'm too incompetent, but that my opponent is too powerful! !
