Chapter 577 Karuizawa Heavy Industries

Park Junlong suddenly blurted out: "I'm afraid South Korea will never be able to do it for a long time. Today's Karuizawa Heavy Industries has not only integrated all the steel plants in Wakayama City in the past, but also successfully upgraded them.

The steel plants owned by Karuizawa Heavy Industries have implemented Industrialization 4.0 one by one and directly entered the era of intelligence.As of now, it is the first steel plant in the world to achieve this.

This means that it can significantly reduce production costs, especially in labor expenses.Although the initial investment is huge, it is worth it.

In order to re-employ the redundant Wakayama City steel workers, the Karuizawa Group has also launched a related enterprise package to resettle them, and has not directly laid off employees or abandoned them. "

He paused intentionally when he said this, and then continued with a change of topic: "Take the current outbreak of urea panic in South Korea as an example. Urea is a by-product of the steel industry.

Because the cost of directly specializing in the production of urea is too high and it is simply not cost-effective, there are no companies specializing in the production of urea in South Korea.

Companies such as Posco Steel are bound to reduce steel production in the future under the huge competitive pressure from Karuizawa Heavy Industries, which means that South Korea's domestic urea production will be further reduced.

On the contrary, the steel plants owned by Karuizawa Heavy Industries are operating at full capacity, which will inevitably increase the production of urea and then export it to South Korea.

This means that whether it is Karuizawa Heavy Industries’ steel or urea, they are making money from Koreans.If South Korea wants to solve the current wave of panic about urea, it can only import it.

Apart from Japan, the only country that is closest to South Korea and can export urea in large quantities is China.

Under the current situation, urea from China may not have a price advantage over urea from Japan.

As for the South Korean government's decision to import urea by air from Australia, apart from being a drop in the bucket, it is also more of a political show. "

Song Enxi listened carefully and said: "Since you know everything, why can't you help us, South Korea?"

Park Junyong didn't even smile, nor did he say: "We are talking about business. Not only is South Korea really doomed this time, but it will also have to be watched by Karuizawa Heavy Industries for a long time in the future.

Karuizawa Trading Company, a subsidiary of the Karuizawa Group, has long been directly or indirectly controlled abroad and has invested in many related companies that produce high-quality iron ore.

The famous ones include Australia's BHP Billiton and Brazil's Vale... This enables Karuizawa Heavy Industries within the group to continuously provide iron ore and iron ore at more favorable prices.

This naturally allows the steel plants under Karuizawa Heavy Industries to reduce the cost of raw materials before producing related steel products.

If the Karuizawa Group establishes a shipping company and builds their own fleet specifically for transporting iron ore, iron ore, and various types of steel, they can further reduce costs.

This complete industrial chain from bottom to top is firmly in the hands of the Karuizawa Group.To be honest, my dad has not only been planning this for a long time, but he is also personally coordinating the overall situation. "

Song Enxi's face showed a very frustrated look: "From now on, South Korea in this field will not be the meat on the chopping board, but will still be slaughtered by Karuizawa Heavy Industries."

Park Junlong shrugged his shoulders and said: "There is no other way! At the very least, South Korea can still make some profits from it. As long as there are still profits, then there will be companies that continue to work.

As long as there is business, people will be hired.As long as people have jobs and income, it will not be easy for them to do anything illegal or disorderly.Otherwise, South Korea's fate will be even worse.I dare to boldly predict that South Korea will experience an economic recession in the future and a long-term wave of unemployment is not impossible.

Even if South Korea does not accept it and has to fight to the end, these steel products of Karuizawa Heavy Industries will be easily sold to Southeast Asia even if they are not digested in Japan.

Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia not only have their own car brands, but also have many assembly plants for Japanese car brands.

Once the prices of cars produced in these countries are lower, do you think consumers in those countries will still choose higher-priced Korean cars?

As for the shipbuilding industry, the same is true.Singapore’s shipbuilding industry is not inferior to that of South Korea.Its shipbuilding industry is also very developed. "

Song Enxi said angrily: "Doesn't that mean that we Koreans can only eat the leftovers of the Japanese?"

Park Junlong said without joking: "Yes, it is better than nothing! At least, there will be no general strikes, protests, or even turmoil in the country because of this.

While the Koreans are eating the leftovers of the Japanese, the Vietnamese and Filipinos are also eating the leftovers of the Koreans!If you think about it this way, you should feel more balanced in your heart! "

Song Enxi suddenly asked with a serious face: "In your heart, do you think you are Korean or Japanese?"

Park Junyong wrote lightly: "Japan does not recognize dual nationality, but I chose Korean nationality back then, so I am Korean."

Song Enxi said straightforwardly: "I see in your heart that you have always considered yourself Japanese."

Pu Junlong was too lazy to argue with her about this issue and said: "If you think so, it's not impossible. People like me are citizens of the world.

Naturalizing in any country is an extremely simple matter.The generally accepted investment immigration amount in developed countries is only US$50. "

Song Enxi frowned angrily and said: "The future trend of automobiles is new energy electric vehicles."

Park Junlong laughed and said: "Even new energy electric vehicles still use steel! Not to mention the details. The body frame alone will definitely use steel.

Is it possible that, in your mind, new energy electric vehicles have always had a body frame made of aluminum alloy?Besides, what does South Korea say about the field of new energy electric vehicles?

It doesn't have any big advantages.For now, Tesla in the United States is the real unshakable king in this field.Even China is still far behind.

To this end, the Chinese government has also provided a lot of related subsidies.Although I can’t count China’s new energy vehicle brands on one hand, most of them are still making money at a loss.

The bankrupt WM Motor, one of China's new energy vehicle brands, has a debt of 410 billion yuan, but has only delivered 10 vehicles in total. "
