giants of the era

Chapter 410 Strong background, opponent is helpless!

Last night, Li Zetian showed his glory and defeated two peerless beauties in a row, and Fu Gang was revived!

Waking up early in the morning, I feel refreshed and extra energetic.

After breakfast, go online when you have nothing to do.

After the word-of-mouth promotion last night, the movie "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has become popular.On the IMDB (Internet Movie Database) website, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has a score of 9.4 points, which is one of the few high-scoring movies, and the movie review section is basically praising this movie.

"I'm not bragging, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is really good, this movie will definitely set off a magical frenzy in the world!"

"Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is the most surprising movie of the year!"

"After watching "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", I really want to find King's Cross Station, which is the departure station of the Hogwarts Express! I just don't know if there is a king at the London Railway Station. Stations of the Cross?"

"..."

Li Zetian sighed: "The novel itself is excellent, coupled with the excellent production of the film, no matter the past or the present, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" will be popular!"

……

At 08:30 in the morning, Selena and Vanessa rushed to work.

"Have you had breakfast? If not, eat 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 and Vale responded to the message?"

"Mr. Li, the chairman of Nucor Iron and Steel Company said that he might not be able to obey your request. However, he doesn't want to offend you. He hopes to cooperate with you and promises to give you the best preferential terms!" Celine Na said.

Li Zetian shook his head, very dissatisfied with this answer.Li Zetian's goal is to fully control a steel company, so there is no need to discuss it further.

"Is the Chronos Steel Company registered?"

"I have already sent someone to register, and it will be approved in a few days."

"Well, very good. From now on, dig people for me. Steel technicians from all over the world are our goals!" Li Zetian said in a deep voice, "The foundation of industry is the steel factory, and we must absolutely control it in our own hands. !"

"Understood!" Selina replied loudly.

"Okay, what about Vale in Brazil?" Li Zetian looked at Vanessa.

Vanessa smiled and said, "Mr. Li, you are going to sign a long-term contract with them. They are too late to be happy. How can they refuse?"

"Well, that's true!" Li Zetian smiled.

"Mr. Li, do we need to buy some 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, what you said makes sense. As the saying goes, 'Don't put all your eggs in one basket'. We really can't completely rely on Vale. In this way, you let people buy some mines , the scale does not need to be too large, it is enough to be able to deal with temporary crises. Oh, yes, some rare metal mines, remember to have as many as possible, maybe they will be used in the future."

In the 2008 financial crisis, steel prices plummeted, and countless mining companies went bankrupt.Li Zetian couldn't afford to suffer this loss.Mining the earth's mines is tantamount to sitting on the mountain, and if you want to mine, go to outer space to mine.

The level of aerospace technology in this life is several years ahead of the previous life, and Li Zetian is willing to spend huge sums of money. It is not difficult to mine on the moon in his lifetime.

The moon is rich in mineral resources, including cobalt, gold, palladium, titanium, tungsten and uranium.Of course, the most precious resource is a gas called helium-3, which can be used as a raw material for future nuclear reactors.However, helium-3 is an extremely rare material on the earth, and the value of helium-3 per ton can reach 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 more safely aggregated together, and helium-3 will make its debut here.Because it can be used with deuterium to power nuclear power plants, and 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 across the 250000-mile distance, future lunar colonies could send energy directly to Earth using microwave or laser pathways.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 this becomes a reality, the Moon might become the next superpower, dominating the Earth's economy while relying only on some supplies from Earth!
……

Three days later, Chronos Steel Company was established and started to develop intensively.

At the same time, the person Li Zetian sent to negotiate with Brazil's Vale also signed a long-term contract with the other party.Although Chronos Steel Company has just started, its strong capital and huge demand are enough to create a powerful steel empire! ! !

The appearance of Chronos Steel Company made the entire steel industry turn pale.

However, let's say that there are powerful industrial companies in the world that don't have their own steel plants. For example, Hyundai Group in South Korea, which manufactures cars, has Hyundai Steel Company.

At this moment, the most anxious are U.S. Steel and Nucor.Prior to this, Li Zetian had been one of the major customers of these two steel companies.

In an office building in New York.

U.S. Steel and Nucor executives gathered.

The middle-aged man sitting first on the right said in a deep voice: "Obviously, Chronos Steel Company will definitely be a competitor of our two companies in the future. I don't think we can let him grow bigger and stronger so smoothly. Why don't we join hands to block and let Chronos Li know how deep the industry is?"

"Banned? Easier said than done? Let's block it so that Chronos Li can hand over the order to other steel companies?"

"That's right! There are so many steel companies around the world, so I can't wait to see a good show! Right now, the Chronos Steel Company is very small, but the industry under Chronos Li's name needs a huge amount of steel, so naturally it needs to buy from other steel companies! You don’t want to make money, and don’t others want to make money? Unless you can unite the world’s powerful steel companies, but this is obviously impossible!”

"..."

Everyone discussed for a long time but failed to come up with a good solution. It seems that they can only sit and watch the rise of Chronos Steel Company.

Even if Chronos Steel only provides steel to industries under the name of Li Zetian, 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! !
