(Thanks to the Supreme Alliance for the first update...)
Not to mention the Oppenheimer and Rupert families, Oyo State Governor Blake does not have particularly high hopes for the construction of the hydropower station group on the upper reaches of the Lukaku River in the short term.
If Dongsheng or the Felician Family Electric Power Company are willing to use such a gambling agreement to ensure the introduction of US$50 million in construction funds within five years, Blake is personally happy with it.
Apart from the family's investment interests, as the governor of Oyo State, he is not only willing to see the hydropower resources in the upper reaches of the Shikakugawa River be developed as soon as possible, but also willing to see a real road connecting Lonta and Draculamo——
The previous gravel road was still too easy.
In fact, with Blake's support, Abacha and Ochosan already hold an absolute majority on the board of directors of Sika Aidate Power Grid Company, but they are trying their best to unite the Oppenheimer and Rupert families, Cao
Mo, Abacha, and Ochosan still cooperated with Nguesang and Brahm in their work.
Oppenheimer and Rupert did not have particularly high expectations for the power grid company, and they quickly completed the work. On January 19th, which was also the same day that the foundation stone of the Ibogu Refinery of the Felician family mining company was laid.
In the name of the Felician Family Power Group, Cao Mo signed a gambling agreement with Sika Aidet Power Grid Company, which was authorized by all shareholders.
Le Clézio, Nguesang, and Brahm also each obtained personal shares ranging from 5-8% in the power grid company from their respective families, and jointly promoted the construction of the largest project in the history of the Lonta region.
The overall framework of the gambling agreement generally followed Cao Mo's idea, with only some minor adjustments made in the details to benefit the three major families.
The core is also to ensure that the upstream hydropower station group will achieve the goal of supplying an annual power supply of no less than 400 million kilowatt-hours to Sika Aidet Power Grid Company in five years.
Within five years, the annual dividends of Sika Aidate Power Grid Company shall not exceed US$600,000, US$1.2 million, US$2.4 million, US$5 million, or US$10 million per year; the balance beyond annual dividends
50% of the funds will be invested in the upgrading and reconstruction of the Lonta-Daculamo road. The board of directors is authorized to borrow construction funds from financial institutions in advance, and 50% will be used for the construction of basic power grid facilities in Lonta.
After five years, annual shareholder dividends will still be limited to US$10 million or 50% of profits (whichever is higher), and excess profits will be used for investment in income-generating infrastructure projects such as electricity in the Lonta area.
If the Felician Family Electric Power Company fails to fulfill its commitments, it will compensate the Sika Aidet Power Grid Company for all income and interest on the Lonta-Daculamo highway.
The power grid company is expected to eventually bring in at least two million US dollars per year to each family, so supporting Ochosan's candidacy for federal parliament is not a condition.
Spending one million dollars in Kanem can directly buy a parliamentary seat.
The vast majority of construction workers for the construction of hydropower stations are provided by Yibogu Labor Service Company. China Civil Engineering Construction Group mainly provides technical and operational personnel as well as engineering construction machinery that Cao Mo is no longer able to purchase on a large scale.
Kanem has no concept of the Spring Festival. Twelve small and medium-sized hydropower stations located along the Gray Crow River, Ibogu River, and the nearby Santuo River and Kaya River rushed to lay the groundwork on Little New Year's Eve.
…………
…………
On New Year's Eve, the administrative office building and two employee dormitories of the Conero Lake Industrial Park were officially opened.
Although the conditions are simpler, the custom of having New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve will not be abandoned.
In addition to the investors, employees and family members of the industrial park, Cao Mo and Yang Deshan also specially invited Feng Rui, Wang Wen, Xu Sheng, Xu Ling and other Chinese workers from the Qionai Gold Mine who stayed in Draculamore to the park.
Come and enjoy the seafood barbecue dinner.
In addition to Dongsheng's dispatched employees, there were almost hundreds of Chinese people in Longta before we knew it.
The barbecue dinner was also very lively.
In less than three months, the Conero Lake Industrial Park has been connected to the outside world by a simple road, and the first phase of supporting projects has been completed. Three more factories are scheduled to be put into operation after the Spring Festival, the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the God of Wealth Festival. Such speed
It would be extremely efficient even in China.
A new cement plant with an investment of US$6 million per production line has also been under construction and is expected to be invested in three months at the earliest.
In any case, the Conero Lake Industrial Park already has a little bit of shape.
In order to ensure that the industrial park would have sufficient funds for subsequent development and construction, Cao Mo directly paid the land transfer fee for the second phase of the new cement plant in advance.
Under Shen Ji's promotion, Dongsheng also agreed in principle to start the construction of the third phase of crude crushing and refining plant in Conero Lake Industrial Park, and also transferred the transfer fee of 120 acres of industrial land of US$800,000 in advance to
into the account of the industrial park.
During this period, the foundations of the Taihua Industrial Park and the Conero Lake Port Terminal were also officially laid, and the costs of the Longdong Highway and telecommunications infrastructure built by the Conero Lake Industrial Park in the early stages, plus three months of interest, were paid.
At present, the industrial park has more than three million US dollars in cash in its account, which can continue to be used for the infrastructure construction of new towns and the second phase of the park.
Cao Mo is not very involved in the construction and management of the industrial park. In addition to the hydropower station group, the refinery, the new cement plant, the cocoa butter processing plant and a lot of other things, he also has the 80 acres of original new cement at the mouth of the Lujiao River.
The factory planning site was purchased.
He did not intend to build a wooden hotel here directly from the industrial park for vacation and business negotiation.
Even if the investment in the wooden hotel is limited, it will occupy the industrial park's extremely valuable construction funds.
The vast majority of small and medium-sized traders in Kanem are still unwilling to invest in fixed assets.
To attract these traders to invest and open factories, the only way is for the industrial park to build steel structure factories in advance and then lease them to them.
Only in this way can we further expand the enterprise occupancy rate and continue to increase the scale of the park. However, at the same time, the industrial park must directly invest more construction funds. We cannot just think of building supporting facilities and continue to make money by selling industrial land.
Cao Mo was planning to build a formal training base here for the newly registered Cornero Security Company in the next year. At the same time, relying on the security company's training base, he would build a 40-acre wooden house group as accommodation and accommodation for the management.
For use in business hotels.

…………
On New Year's Eve, Cao Mo and the others organized investors, employees and families in Longta to hold a barbecue dinner in front of the administrative office building to welcome the New Year. A speedboat crossed the Kehuluo Lake in the dark from south to north and stopped at the mouth of the Lujiao River.
.
Although the power supply has come up and street lights have been installed on the roads inside the park, the lights are still sparse. Only the administrative office building is celebrating its official opening. The lights are turned on in every room from top to bottom, giving it a somewhat brightly lit feel.
.
Standing on the yacht and looking at the administrative office building of the park in the dark, it is particularly dazzling.
"How come they have so much money in their hands?" Lu Jianchao looked into the distance with gloomy eyes and couldn't help but asked with doubts in his heart.
However, no one around him could accurately answer his question.
Dongsheng's investments in Kanem are mainly made by listed companies. Financial announcements are released every quarter, and even foreign investment plans are disclosed in a timely manner.
In addition to the local investors headed by the Felician family and the Sika family in Dongsheng and Longdi, Xie Sipeng is still the strongest among the twenty or thirty Chinese investors currently entering Longta.
In addition to Xie Sipeng, the other strong Chinese businessmen who have entered Longta are also nine other gold mine investors. The nine Chinese companies currently settled in the Conero Lake Industrial Park have a total investment of only three million US dollars.
Four investors in mining of limestone, silicate ores, total investment
The capital amount is just over three million US dollars.
Now the international gold price is rising rapidly. It has risen to more than 530 US dollars per ounce in late January. Compared with the low point last year, it has increased by 30%.
This new addition is pure profit.
For example, Qionai Gold Mine's net profit in the past year may have been only six to seven million U.S. dollars, but if the international gold price can maintain its current level, their net profit this year will surge to two million U.S. dollars.
Now more people want to invest in gold mines in Longta, but it is a pity that the nearly two hundred square kilometers of mining rights near Yibogu are monopolized by the Yibogu Gold Mine; and after the international gold price continues to rise, Xie Sipeng and others quickly
They became smarter and applied for mining rights from regions one after another, and then combined it with mining area land contracting and other means to legally monopolize the mining rights in their respective mining areas and nearby areas.
The scope of Lungta's gold veins is not particularly large. It is mainly concentrated in the hilly and mountainous areas in the north. Currently, it is almost monopolized by eleven small gold mining companies, led by Ibogu Gold Mine. It is difficult for other investors to enter.
When international gold prices are rising rapidly, even if Xie Sipeng and others have extra funds to invest, they will mainly consider expanding gold mining. It is difficult to imagine that they will transfer their limited funds to hydropower development on a large scale.
The Felician family, or the Sika family, seems to have used all the huge profits they gained from the cement storm to invest in new cement plants, but nearly two years ago, they started the construction of more than a dozen small and medium-sized hydropower stations at the same time.
Where did the tens of millions of dollars in construction funds come from?
"Shen Ji came to Dracula Mo before and said that Dongsheng planned to use 50 million US dollars to invest in small hydropower. However, Dongsheng's top management had different opinions. There is no clear conclusion yet. This may be Shen Ji or Chen Rong.
Funds raised from other places?" Yao Haiming guessed doubtfully.
Yao Haiming is the person in charge of the Taihua Industrial Park and Lake Port Terminal Project. In the past three or four months, his main focus has been on Longta. But even if he tried hard to maintain a personal relationship with Niu Genxi of the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation branch in Cardiff, he learned from Niu Genxi
The situation is the general investment scale of the hydropower station group in the upper reaches of the Lukaku River.
At present, the total investment in the hydropower station group on the upper reaches of the Lukaku River has reached 50 million US dollars.
The initial investment of US$12 million was made by the Felician Family Electric Power Company; the Yeyangxia medium-sized hydropower station was funded and constructed by China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, entrusted by the Felician Family Electric Power Company; more than a dozen of them were recently launched.
The main investor in small and medium-sized hydropower stations is Cornero Energy Investment Co., Ltd., with an investment scale of US$20 million.
The legal person and major shareholder of Cornero Energy Investment Co., Ltd. is Cao Mo. This is easy to verify, but they cannot find the source of funds of Cornero Energy Investment Co., Ltd.
However, they have already figured out Cao Mo's background, family background and even his relationship with Chen Rong, the director of Dongsheng Group. Yao Haiming and Huang Hebin do not really think that it was just Dongsheng Kuan more than a year ago.
Haha, Cao Mo, a grassroots employee, can really afford an investment of 20 million US dollars.
They are more inclined to believe that the shares of Cornero Energy Investment Co., Ltd. are held by Cao Mo on behalf of others.
It is quite normal for China to hold shares on behalf of others, or entrust them to hold shares. This is also common in Dracula Moor. For example, the Lu family's shares in Lana Del Rey Beach Casino are actually held by someone on behalf of others and will not be made public.
Let regulatory agencies and small and medium-sized companies know that the Lu family, as the major shareholder of listed company Taihua, is involved in the operation of overseas casinos.
In other words, even if Cao Mo is the legal person and major shareholder of Cornero Energy Investment Co., Ltd., in their eyes, he is just an agent or a puppet.
Yao Haiming is more inclined to believe that the actual investor or fundraiser behind Cornero Energy Investment Co., Ltd. is Shen Ji.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain that during New Year's Day, Shen Ji would personally rush to Dracula Mo to stand up for Cao Mo.
