After the new century, with the strong rise of China, China has also become a real "world factory".

Shipbuilding tonnage ranks first in the world, cement output ranks first in the world, chemical fiber output ranks first in the world, automobile output ranks first in the world, steel output ranks first in the world, and mobile phone output ranks first in the world

Although many of the world's first are advocating the strong rise of China, they are also consuming huge resources.

Who would have thought that in China, where oil was also exported to earn foreign exchange in the 1980s and 1990s, after the new century, oil consumption would become the first in the world, and oil imports would also be the first in the world?

In the 1980s, iron ore, which was also known to be used by China for hundreds of years, began to be stretched in the new century. As a result, as China's steel production began to be far ahead of other countries, and even accounted for half of the world's crude steel production, iron ore that could have been used by China for hundreds of years has also become China's Achilles heel.

Oil is good to say. After all, in the Middle East, China can import crude oil from Saudi Arabia and Iran, and Angola in Africa can also import a large amount of oil. The five countries of South America, Russia and Central Asia have become the areas where China imports oil.

No matter how powerful the United States is, it cannot monopolize the world's oil.

But iron ore really stuck China's neck.

China's iron ore can not be said suck. The key is that China's iron ore is not strong, its grade is low, and its impurities are numerous. If small-scale steelmaking does not matter, once the large-scale steelmaking is done, the high cost of steel produced by such iron ore can make people collapse.

In desperation, Huaxia can only import high-grade iron ore in large quantities abroad.

But there are so many places in the world that produce high-grade iron ore, and they are all controlled by the three iron ore giants. Therefore, these iron ore giants have been tossing about China in recent years, but China has no other way but to stare.

Who let people pinch your neck!

Japan is also a big importer of iron ore, although not as much as China, but the quantity is also very considerable.

However, due to the rise in the price of iron ore, he said that not only did he not lose money, on the contrary, others could make a pot full of profits. Why? Very simple, because the four consortia of Japan control a lot of high-quality super iron ore, and even the three iron ore giants, the four consortia of Japan can deeply affect!

Because whether it is the three iron ore giants or other second-class iron ore producers, the four consortia occupy a large number of shares!

Among them, the most far-reaching layout is Mitsui products.

As we all know, the production of high-quality iron ore in the world is mainly concentrated in the iron four corners of Western Australia and Brazil.

Japanese companies can be seen almost everywhere in Western Australia. Among the 24 major iron mines in Australia, Japanese enterprises have focused on investing in 8 and taking shares in 16. Even giants such as Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton have been deeply penetrated by Japan.

In Brazil, Vale is undoubtedly the largest iron ore giant, but it is such a giant iron ore producer. Mitsui also controls 18.4% of the shares.

In Chile, India and South Africa, as long as it can produce high-quality iron ore, Japan, especially Mitsui products, is indispensable.

Therefore, even if the price of iron ore increases all over the world, my iron and steel enterprises will reduce their profits because of the price increase of iron ore, but they can't stand chaebols holding a large number of shares of iron ore producers such as Mitsui products. They can make a lot of money while the price of iron ore increases, and then they will subsidize the profits to iron and steel enterprises in China!

In any case, Japan's iron and steel enterprises will not lose money.

Japan's iron and steel enterprises benefit from the fact that the price of iron ore does not rise. The rise in iron ore prices will benefit Japan's four consortia, which in turn will feed Japan's domestic iron and steel enterprises, and Japan itself will also benefit.

Therefore, no matter whether the price of iron ore rises or not, Japan is the one who benefits!

Only bitter Chinese.

Yang Jing has crossed over from the future. Of course, he knows how hard it is for China to be stuck by the major iron ore giants. In serious cases, it can even affect China's economic fundamentals.

Without this ability before, we can only watch the country suffer huge losses. Now that he has this ability, Yang Jing will certainly not allow this situation to continue to happen.

Although Yang Jing can't do anything before taking over the Dragon Fund, it can't stop him from starting layout now. Once the layout is completed, when he takes over the Dragon Fund in the future and cooperates with the strength of Huaxia, the situation of Huaxia being slaughtered by foreign iron ore giants will be completely changed!

Japan's four consortia began to layout the iron ore industry all over the world long ago, among which Mitsui's products have the deepest and widest layout.

As early as the early 1970s, Mitsui products began to be distributed in Brazil. At that time, Mitsui property invested in CMM company and occupied 40% of the shares.

Just a few years later, in 2001, Vale prepared to acquire CMM. As a result, Mitsui property got the news long ago. They bought 60% of the voting shares of CMM company from frering brothers, the grandson of CMM founder, plus 40% of the shares previously owned, and Mitsui property completely acquired CMM.

After Mitsui completely acquired CMM, it sold half of CMM shares to vale, helping the latter successfully control CMM.

On the surface, Mitsui seems to be helping vale in vain, but in fact, Mitsui's layout is far more than that.

After the successful cooperation, Mitsui not only provided products and technology to vale, but also actively provided financial assistance to the latter to help the latter expand its business scope. The two sides also have very close personnel exchanges. For example, Mitsui sent someone as Vale's customer manager to lead Mitsui's customer management team to stay in Brazil and promote various businesses with vale on site.

Finally, in 2003, Mitsui once again acquired 15% of the shares of valepar S.A., the parent company that controls vale!

At the same time, Mitsui property finally acquired 18.4% of the shares of valepar S.A. with the help of these 15% shares, becoming the second largest shareholder after the Brazilian government.

Although CMM is not small, compared with Vale's 18.4% stake, it is obvious that the value of the latter far exceeds that of the former.

This operation of Mitsui's products is typically small and broad, but it happened that others succeeded.

Mitsui products are produced in India, Chile, South America and more in Australia.

Mitsui products has finally completed the global iron ore layout with the operation of a hammer in the East and a hammer in the west, which seems to have little effect!

According to Yang Jing's information from the future, the shares of iron ore producers controlled by Mitsui products are about 8.4% of the shares of iron ore producers in the world on average!

In other words, just a Mitsui product controls almost one twelfth of the world's iron ore production!

This is definitely a terrible number and a terrible layout means!

No wonder people say that I am never afraid of iron ore prices. Because no matter whether the price increases or not, I am the ultimate beneficiary!

At present, the layout of Japan's four consortia in terms of iron ore has not been finally completed, but at this stage, with the arrival of the wave of large-scale merger of world mining companies, Japan is also accelerating this progress.

They are also well aware that it is obviously a matter of getting twice the result with half the effort to speed up the layout by taking the opportunity of the wave of major mergers of world mining companies, so they have also begun to speed up now.

But what they probably didn't expect is that a long brewing financial storm will interrupt this process, and this is Yang Jing's good opportunity.

The erosion plan was carried out secretly. Now it has been carried out almost. Now there is a good opportunity to make a more radical plunder of the previous erosion plan. It's like wrapping steamed stuffed buns. Finally, you need to take a pinch to wrap the steamed stuffed buns.

Yang Jing wants to take advantage of the Asian financial storm that will begin next year to get this last pinch. And finally swallowed Japan's carefully prepared iron ore layout for decades!
