    It¡¯s the last three days. Thank you for your support all the way. Finally, let me announce that Ant¡¯s new book has been uploaded. It has more than 800,000 words. You can kill it.

    ??************

    There are many types of nickel ore resources in the world, but among them, the nickel-containing ore with the highest quality is of course laterite nickel ore. In the current world, there are two countries with the richest laterite nickel ore resources. One is the Philippines.  , and another one is Indonesia.

    ??In the past, Indonesia and the Philippines were the same. They were both open to the outside world in terms of mineral resources, allowing foreign capital to invest in their countries and independently develop those mineral resources.

    But last year, the Indonesian Congress passed a bill that strictly prohibits foreign capital from developing various mineral resources in their own country. Even if they can be developed, they must be open to state-owned capital and allow their governments or individuals to finance those mineral resources.  .

    To put it bluntly, you are not allowed to play alone. If you want to make a fortune in silence, you have to ask our local people if they are willing and whether they agree.

    ¡°And they are very tough. Anyway, you have to agree even if you agree, and you have to agree even if you don¡¯t agree.

    If you agree, you will have to give up part of your shares, or give part of your profits to everyone. If you don't agree, then you won't even be able to keep the mine, and at worst, the national government will give you a pitifully low compensation.  , and then you have to get out.

    The tough tactics of the Indonesian government really left many mineral investors helpless. After all, the Indonesians chose their timing very well. At this time, the Americans focused their attention on the Middle East and had no time to take care of them.

    ¡°It is also difficult for other countries to exert national influence here, so those mineral investors can only stare blankly or accept the terms of the Indonesians.  Either just accept the pitifully low compensation and get out of here.

    But there are very few people who choose the latter option. After all, even though Indonesian monkeys have to share a large amount of profits, those mines are.  Still profitable.

    Especially for a large chaebol like Mitsui whose ultimate goal is to control resources, compared with giving away a part of the profits.  Controlling resources is their lifeblood.

    But no matter what, the Indonesian government¡¯s actions last year still caused them heavy losses.

    What¡¯s even more frightening is that the Japanese are very afraid that after the Indonesians make such a start, the Filipinos and Malaysians will follow suit. You must know that in these Southeast Asian countries, they have a lot of mineral resources.

    When I first invested in mining.  But everything was well said, and everyone signed the contract. According to the terms of the contract at that time, the price paid by the Japanese was very small, and these countries suffered a big loss.

    But now if everyone is like the Indonesians, seeing us making money, they will forcibly break the contract and come over to share the pie. Is this too unethical?

    There are Indonesians who have made such a bad start, and those other countries.  What if we all learn from the same thing?

    So Mitsui found the head of Betonio today. This Betonio is the future leader of the Philippines that they are very optimistic about.

    Over the years, the Japanese have been economically and politically.  The penetration into these countries in Southeast Asia has been done very well.

    Economically, they choose the means of investment, penetration, and control, while politically, they prefer to increase investment in those political rookies who are expected to become the future leaders of these countries.

    ¡°Whether it¡¯s economic or other aspects, the Japanese have resources in all aspects that these guys can¡¯t match.

    This time Mitsui Yukira.  On the one hand, I wanted to find Betonio to test his relationship with Andal, the governor of Napalawang Province.  Bangkok's stance on the proposed motion.  On the other hand, I also want to see if this person has any prospects worth investing in.

    ?? And Betonio is a politician.  Why don't you know Mitsui Yukira's thoughts?

    At this time, his face didn't change much. He had a paralyzed face. It was difficult for others to analyze this guy's happiness and anger from the expression on his face. From this point of view, this guy was absolutely perfect.  He is a qualified politician.

    Mitsui Yukira, at this time, was gently shaking the red wine glass in his hand, watching the red liquid in the glass, constantly swaying in the glass, and then hanging on the wall of the wine glass, slowly sliding down.

    Neither of them spoke, but they were actually trying to figure out each other's thoughts. The atmosphere in the living room fell into an unspeakable silence and embarrassment.

    After a while, it was Mitsui Yukira who spoke first: "Mr. Betonio, the reason why we found you is because of your father, the former president of the Philippines. He is a great man."?When he was in power, the elders of our family had always been good friends with him. Our two laterite nickel mines in Palawan Province were approved by the president for investment when he was in power.  Those two mines are testimony to the friendly relationship between our Mitsui family and the Noga family in the Philippines. Now the governor of Palawan Province is trying to challenge order. He actually threw out such a bill to grandstand. This is not a good thing.  , as far as I know, this Andal.  Governor of Bangkok Tat, it seems that he will enter the National Assembly and become a member of Parliament in the second half of this year, right?  And he is a well-known hardliner in the Philippines. His attitude towards foreign investment is very unfriendly. He often advocates that foreign investments are thieves and robbers who come to steal the wealth of the Filipino people. He advocates using these foreign investments as  Treat it with the strongest possible means.  Not only must heavy taxes be imposed, but previous preferential policies for foreign investment must also be cancelled.  Although I strongly disagree with his theory, his theory seems to be very popular in the Philippines and is very popular with ordinary people at the bottom. And I heard that the reason why he does this seems to be for the lower class.  He is very interested in the presidential election. He is so high-profile now because he is paving the way for the election of the next Philippine president.  .  .  "

    There was something in Mitsui Yukira¡¯s words, and when he finished speaking, Betonio, who had been sitting opposite him, was paralyzed in front of him.  Noga V's expression finally changed at this time.

    "Yes, that guy Andal, it's true. What he advocates has offended many people, but in China, it is very popular with ordinary people. But in my opinion, this is not very good.  Our Philippines¡¯ economic development is very backward and requires heavy investment from foreign capital. How can we oppose foreign investment like this?¡±

    Although he didn¡¯t say it directly, his attitude was already expressed in just a few short sentences.

    And Mitsui Yukira, after seeing that Betonio was persuaded by him, his face was full of joy. After all, if he persuaded this guy, it meant that what happened next would be possible.

    Li Yifan, Li Anne, and Heidi, who were sitting in front of the monitor, also had their own thoughts at this time. Heidi was not too concerned about this guy's changes, but Li Yifan and Li Anne were very concerned about this Betonio.  The changes are very concerning.

    Both of them hope that Betonio can show his fox tail sooner. This is obvious today. Mitsui Yukira came to Betonio and talked to him about these things. In fact, he hoped that Betonio could agree to him.  , helped veto Andal during the Congress meeting.  A bill proposed by Bangkok to ban FTAA.

    In return, he will definitely give Betonio a lot of benefits, and this is the handle they need most. As for the fight among the Filipinos, they don't care at all.

    What they care about is only the future development of Betonio. They hope that Betonio will go higher and higher in the future, and finally become the president of the Philippines. That will be the last thing, because only after this guy becomes the president of the Philippines, then he  value can be maximized.

    Not only for Mitsui Yukira, but also for Li Yifan and Li Anni who have grasped his handle.

    Betonio finally stopped pretending to be paralyzed and instead made a statement. This made Yukira Mitsui very happy, and he quickly had a heated conversation with Betonio and talked a lot.

    The final result, just as Li Yifan and Li Anni predicted, this guy directly wrote a check to Betonio.

    Bertonio looked at the check that Yukira Mitsui had returned on the coffee table, then glued it together with two fingers, glanced at the numbers on it, then flicked the check gently and put the check in  In the pocket.

    Mitsui Yukira was very happy when he saw that he had received the check. Although the expression on Betonio's face was still serious at this time, he still raised it and prepared to hold a drink with Betonio to celebrate this time.  Everyone cooperates successfully.

    Betonio also gave him face, and he was held up when he raised it, but his movements were very stiff. Mitsui clinked glasses with him, then stood up, stretched out his right hand, and wanted to shake hands with Betonio.

    But Betonio did not get up. Instead, he raised his head and began to look around the villa.

    "Mr. Mitsui, this villa of yours looks very nice. Can you please let me take a look at it? I originally wanted to buy a villa like this in Singapore, but Haha, as you know, we are civil servants.  , don¡¯t have that much money?¡±

    After listening to Betonio¡¯s words, the expression on Mitsui Yukira¡¯s face was stunned for a moment, but it soon returned to normal.

    "Haha, is that so? Mr. Betonio, you have really good vision. This villa of mine was built a few years ago.I spent three million dollars to buy it. It was the best building in the best location on the island. It was designed by a designer specially invited from New York. The furniture was all Italian.  But Mr. Betonio and I hit it off right away. We are good friends. Since you like this villa so much, I will give it to you. I will have the deed of this villa delivered to your house tomorrow.  .  .  .  "(To be continued)
