Chapter 790 Abandon the Port of Maputo?

"It's an expected thing!" Yu Qingyang said with a smile.

Whether Japan wants to cause trouble for Hua Yu or really wants to invest in Maputo Port, it will not be so honest.

I will definitely bribe officials at all levels of the Ministry of Commercial Affairs of Mozambique. This is a common practice in Japan. Through bribery, I can obtain some relatively secret information, and then use this to obtain greater benefits.

The Mozambican government is also famous around the world for its corruption.

Otherwise, they are also extremely poor, and the credit ratings of other countries are only low, very low, and Mozambique's credit rating is junk level.

Junk grade means hopeless, without any value, and not worthy of trust.

"As expected? Chairman, is there something we don't know about this?" Lu Meng looked at Yu Qingyang in confusion.

"Well, Yokohama International Seaport Group, a subsidiary of Japan's Mitsui Group, also intends to invest in Maputo Port and reconstruct and expand Maputo Port!"

"Japan Yokohama Company?" Lu Meng couldn't help but take a breath.

Japan's Yokohama Company is a well-established port company in the world.

A company that existed before World War II.

"What? Are you afraid? Are you worried that you won't be able to compete with Yokohama Company?"

"Afraid? That's not the case. I'm just a little surprised by how powerful my opponent is!

Chairman, it seems that you need to come forward to resolve this matter!

Japan's Yokohama appeared at this time and intervened. The purpose may not be simple!

We are not afraid of fair competition, but we are afraid that Yokohama Company does not come with the attitude of fair competition!

If they just want to disrupt the situation, then we will be passive!" Lu Meng analyzed calmly.

Lu Meng was able to grasp the essence of the problem in such a short time, which made Yu Qingyang unable to help but admire Lu Meng, a chubby, short, and somewhat balding guy.

Yes! Japan's Yokohama Company is intervening at this time, certainly not because it values ​​Mozambique's development potential.

The purpose is to cause trouble for Huayu Group.

They could lower the conditions without any bottom line until Hua Yu could no longer hold on.

Wait for Hua Yu to withdraw, then conduct a second round of negotiations and add various additional conditions to make a profit.

At this time, Mozambique had offended the Huayu Group. Even if it was dissatisfied with the additional conditions of the Yokohama Company, it could only swallow its anger and agree to various unreasonable conditions.

Unless they abandon the Maputo Port and let Maputo continue to sink until many years later, Maputo will be abandoned due to aging equipment and silted waterways.

As for Hua Yu, once the Japanese Yokohama takes control of Maputo Port, it will be the beginning of disaster.

No matter how many resources Mozambique has, it will be nothing if they cannot be shipped out.

“I will meet and talk to the President of Mozambique tomorrow!

I believe that as long as the President of Mozambique is not stupid, he will not agree to hand over the port to the Japanese Yokohama Company!

At most, I just hope to take this opportunity to get more benefits!" Yu Qingyang smiled calmly.

The sudden appearance of the Japanese Yokohama Company will make Hua Yu more passive, but it is not a fatal blow.

At most, it would be a complete withdrawal from Mozambique and a small loss of funds.

As long as you have money, there are many places in Africa where you can invest, not to mention Mozambique’s neighboring countries, such as South Africa, Rwanda, and Tanzania.

The four of them chatted for a while and exchanged their views on the sudden intervention of the Japanese Yokohama Company, and it was time to eat.



The next day, both Lu Meng and Ma Xinjing followed Yu Qingyang's request to continue negotiations and spend time with officials from the Mozambican Ministry of Commercial Affairs.

Yu Qingyang went to meet the President of Mozambique.

"Good morning, Mr. President!"

"Good morning, dear Mr. Yu, you want to see me. Do you have any good news?" The President of Mozambique warmly welcomed Yu Qingyang into the reception room.

"I heard that the Japanese Yokohama Company is also interested in investing in your country's Maputo Port?" Yu Qingyang didn't bother to beat around the bush and asked directly.

"Yes, this is all the good luck that respected Mr. Yu has brought to us!

Japan's Yokohama Company is a large international port company, affiliated to Japan's Mitsui Group, which is a large company with the same strength as your company..."

"Haha, Mr. President thinks too highly of our company!

Our company cannot compare with a large consortium like Mitsui!" Yu Qingyang laughed softly.

"The purpose of my coming here today is to tell Mr. President that since super port companies like Yokohama, Japan are willing to invest in your country's terminals, our company is also willing to invest in the beauty of adulthood!

We are willing to withdraw from investment in the reconstruction and expansion project of the Port of Maputo!”

"Dear Mr. Yu, why are you doing this? I never said that I would hand over Maputo Port to the Japanese Yokohama Company!

I am more willing to cooperate with your company than the Yokohama company in Japan!

Under the same conditions, I will definitely choose your company!

Mr. Yu must believe us on this point!" The President of Mozambique thought that Yu Qingyang was going to withdraw his capital and hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay.

"Mr. President, I think you have misunderstood!

Our withdrawal from the competition for Maputo Port is also for your country's consideration!

After all, Japan's Yokohama Company is more powerful and can better help your country develop Maputo better!

This is a better choice for your country!

However, our company can just find a port to invest in Zambezi Province, Sofala Province, Nampula Province or other places!

Anyway, we just need to have a port that can dock 100,000-ton ships, it doesn’t matter which port!" Yu Qingyang said with a relaxed smile.

"This..." The President of Mozambique was a little moved.

"We can randomly find a port to invest in and expand it into the port we need. This will not affect our investment in your country, and your country can retain a large international port company like Japan's Yokohama Corporation!

Maybe in the future, your country can build a relationship with Mitsui through Yokohama Company. If the Mitsui Consortium is willing to invest in your country, then your country will be able to get rid of poverty just around the corner!" Yu Qingyang looked like he was thinking about Mozambique and continued to work hard to persuade.

With the President of Mozambique.

The more Yu Qingyang acted like this, the more the President of Mozambique felt unsure.

The President of Mozambique is worried that what Yu Qingyang said is ironic. If he misunderstands it and Hua Yu turns around and withdraws investment, then Mozambique will lose more than just an investment.

Maybe he, the president, will be impeached.

You must know that Mozambique is not governed by one party, but by multiple parties. Although his Liberation Front is the largest party in Mozambique, it has always been the ruling party.

However, other parties cannot be ignored, and they are all looking forward to the FRELIMO party making mistakes.
