0283 The location of the castle
Three days later, rumors about the merger between Albeid and Bethlehem were abuzz.
This matter was discussed everywhere, suppressing all conspiracy theories and news about the Kendi family for a while.
The mining giant that signed a formal agreement and completed the merger is named: Albeid-Bethlehem Mining Group.
It will become the largest multinational mining group in the United States and Europe. International steel and bronze prices are turbulent, like a roller coaster that makes people unable to understand.
Albed-Bethlehem Mining Group’s disclosed shareholder structure.
After the exchange, Bethlehem Steel controls 31% of the new group's equity.
The Blue and White Chamber of Commerce controls 16%.
The Grand Duke's family's share dropped to 26%, occupying second place.
Roger Capello holds 10% of the shares, occupying third place.
Former Hassan Steel shareholders hold 8% of the shares, occupying fourth place.
Former Manda Steel shareholders hold 6% of the shares, occupying fifth place.
The remaining 3% of the shares are in the hands of other small shareholders, and there are currently no circulating shares on the stock market.
Immediately after Albeid-Bethlehem Mining Group, it announced that the company would be delisted from the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange, causing a sensation.
The world's largest multinational steel group will become a non-listed group company and expand its business to the copper mining industry.
…
…
"We hold 18% of the shares in Bethlehem, plus the Blue and White Chamber of Commerce owns 16% of the shares, boss, your current shareholding is 34%."
After hearing Ben's report, Li Zitao looked through the documents with satisfaction, which means that from now on, he will become the largest shareholder of this multinational giant.
Moreover, it is about to delist and become a private company, which will explode.
The stock market is now a complete mess. If you choose to delist, you will not suffer any losses, and you can also be prepared for Morgan's little moves.
As long as the delisting is successful, the absolute controlling rights held by Li Zitao and Dagong together will be able to prevent any accidents from happening.
Morgan can bribe small shareholders to enter the market, but if he wants to occupy the magpie's nest, he has no chance.
"Has there been any result from our survey in South America?" It has been 13 months since the initial negotiations between Chile and Peru.
The early negotiations and land purchase took too much time. The formal survey took about five months, which is not a short time.
"We have made some discoveries and bought a large amount of land around the city of Chuquicamata in Chile. I believe the final result will not disappoint."
Chuquicamata City, a mining city in northern Chile, is also home to the world's largest open-pit copper mine.
Precisely because the location previously selected by FSC was in this area rich in mineral resources, the negotiations were extended to nearly 8 months.
"The integration of ad-b will take a long time, but the exploration and acquisition of mineral resources will still continue. Let the group send representatives to Indonesia to speed up negotiations and cooperation with the government."
Cooperation and surveying in Chile, Peru, Indonesia, Spain, Australia, including African colonies were carried out simultaneously.
Limited by the scale of the fsc, it was not possible to carry out simultaneous operations before, but for the current ad-b (Albed-Bethlehem), this kind of thing is not difficult.
Regarding the company's executive director and CEO, Li Zitao had full power and even helped Luo Jiefu during his election campaign.
The other party took the initiative to add 3% points to Bethlehem's share exchange, which was a reward for his help.
The group headquarters will naturally be located in Luxembourg. The former headquarters of Bethlehem will be the North American branch of the group company, responsible for North American business.
The pressure and blockade caused by American steel companies became increasingly powerless in just a few months, and Luxembourg attracted many steel companies to settle there.
Various supporting industries and talents have poured into Luxembourg in large numbers, bringing prosperity but also some minor troubles.
But the Grand Duke didn't mind this at all. Every time he talked to her on the phone, his laughter was as gentle and hearty as ever.
…
…
While the matter was fermenting, Li Zitao became busy with a major event, concerning the promise he made to Her Royal Highness, a castle that attracted worldwide attention.
Although his fiancée was not unhappy about giving Harry Saintson's manor to Wang Dagou and Da Niu, Li Zitao had to make some attitudes.
Who made him determined to be the perfect boyfriend!
California, Southwest.
The planned end point of Highway 1, Santa Monica, Marbury Beach.
The long coastline is about five kilometers long. Standing on the slightly sloping cliffs of the coastline, Li Zitao raised his telescope and looked around.
There are strange rocks, rugged cliffs and reefs, a clear blue sea and a gentle sea breeze. The inner bay below is full of reefs, and the waves crash on the rocks, creating beautiful sprays.
If you want to build a pier here in the future, it will be a big project, but it is only 5 kilometers away from the jetty pier, so you can definitely put your yacht there.
Behind it is a large open space with lush grass, which can be modified to build a castle garden, a playground, and a helicopter lift.
After the castle is built, a rectangular infinity swimming pool can be specially built, a circulation system can be arranged, and it can be directly connected to the sea to form circulating running water.
The bottom material is reinforced with reinforced concrete and covered with 5cm long conical steel nails to prevent mechanics from intruding.
Stan's flat-headed brother was so awesome that he left a serious psychological shadow on Li Zitao. When he thinks of the infinity pool, his face pops out of his mind.
The frame is made of the latest resin glass, which Li Zitao personally tested and fired continuously with a large-caliber heavy machine gun without leaving any bullet marks.
Going forward is connected to Highway 1, making future transportation very convenient.
The top of the cliff is upturned and the slope is very gentle. The geology here has been surveyed, and there is no problem in building a castle.
"How do you feel here?" Li Zitao put down the telescope and looked at his fiancée beside him.
"Perfect." Adelaide put down the telescope, stepped forward and hooked his neck with her hands, giving him a sweet and deep kiss.
Blue sea and sky, beautiful scenery, beaches, gardens, a future playground for children, and an amazing swimming pool.
There is also convenient transportation. It only takes 10 minutes to reach Santa Monica and 45 minutes to Los Angeles, which is very convenient.
Once Highway 1 is fully opened, it will take less time.
As for the desolation on the road, Adelaide doesn't mind, and she bets that after the construction of the castle is completed, this place will be favored by countless rich people.
Elegant environment, in the company of rich people, quiet and carefree, enjoying the clear air and walking on the beach with the sea breeze.
Just the picture in her imagination made her look forward to it, and she believed that others would be equally interested.
"How many acres are there in this land?" Li Zitao pointed to the entire spire-shaped grassland and cliff starting from the road and dividing it at the corner.
"A total of 5,489 hectares, equivalent to approximately 13,566 acres." The statistician in charge of the measurement said while holding a notebook.
"Let me think about it, if it is too close to the highway, there will be protests. How about leaving some grassland for ordinary tourists? 10 acres should be enough?" Li Zitao looked at the statistician and asked.
"..." The statistician said he didn't want to talk.
Based on the length of this land, 10 acres, if divided, it would be 10 to 15 meters set back from the road, which is just enough for people to stop and visit when passing by.
"Do you have a measured topographic map?" As for the design of the castle, Li Zitao planned to leave it to Bechtel and invite famous European designers to participate.
"Here." The statistician took out the scroll under his arm and took out the topographic map.
"This is the main body of the castle. The fang-shaped protruding part of the cliff. The part extending from the spire above is the swimming pool.
The lower part is fenced with iron rods and can be used as a viewing platform. Perhaps a small pavilion should be added to overlook the sea and enjoy afternoon tea.
This is used as a playground, here is the garage, which is divided independently, and here is the public parking lot, the garden is here, and the two guard booths are here.”
