Chapter 414
Chapter 419 Unwilling To Miss The New Era
Harry’s words made everyone present seem to have been beaten in the head.
Yeah, the scarier thing than falling prices is the absence of buyers.
The steel production in the East accounts for more than half of the global steel production, which means that they are the world’s largest consumer market, and the world’s iron ore is expected to be consumed by them.
You must know that although Dongfang is the country with the largest steel production, it mines very little iron ore and cannot meet its own needs at all, and most of it relies on imports.
The ore in the hands of these mining giants present was basically sold to them.
Now that they don’t buy iron ore, who else can you sell the iron ore in your hands?
The price has dropped, and there is nothing else. Selling them cheaply can still live a good life comfortably. It is nothing more than making less money.
But now they don’t buy your ore directly, and the iron ore in everyone’s hands can only be rotted in their hands.
In the past, everyone is not afraid.
Where the resources are placed, they won’t rot. If you don’t buy them, I will wait slowly. If you want to develop, you must buy my ore, and you must accept my request for price increases, and even At a critical moment, you must accept some unreasonable conditions on my side before we are willing to sell ore to you.
Otherwise, you will wait for all your iron and steel enterprises to close down.
This is the confidence they have always had, and the confidence that they dared to keep raising prices all the time.
Because the major international ore transactions are in their hands, and they have the final say.
But now, everyone is really scared.
The Star Catcher brought back 200 million tons of steel at one time, standing at one-tenth of the world’s total last year. Come on a few such spaceships and go back and forth several times a year. At that time, they will not only be able to meet their own needs for steel. It can also sell various resources to the world on a large scale.
From the original buyer to the seller, not only does not want your ore, but also competes with you along the way, who can stand this?
The current price will definitely fall. The key is that it has fallen, and no one has bought it. This is really disastrous.
“what should we do?”
Someone thought about it and said, “Are we just watching our resources turn into cabbage prices and watching the right to speak in our hands being taken away by them?”
This person mentioned another extremely critical and sensitive thing, that is, the right to speak.
In the past, because the resources were in their own hands, the right to speak was naturally their own. There have been countless storms in the market, making big profits.
But once this right to speak is lost, not only will iron ore not be sold, but it will become extremely difficult to make money in the futures market.
“Our economy is already so bad, now if we can’t even sell our mineral resources, we’re really bad.”
Someone heard it and said helplessly.
“Everyone, do you just see these benefits in front of you?”
“Don’t you see something in the long run?”
Harry looked at them and spoke again.
“The resources in the interstellar universe are almost endless. This resource on the earth is simply a drop of water in the sea. Even if we stick to it, it’s just a drop of water.”
“But the Orientals, they have already begun to exert their strength in the interstellar universe. They are mining rare earths on the moon, and now they have completely mastered the rare earth market.”
“They are now going to the asteroid belt to mine iron ore, copper ore, gold ore, etc. Based on this, the explosive growth like a snowball will continue. It won’t take long for the resources they can master to show geometric multiples. growth of.”
“At that time, we can only keep a drop of water on the earth. They don’t even need to compete with us, and they will naturally grasp everything in the new era.”
Harry’s words caused everyone present to look at the blue sky above their heads, as if they were about to see the vast starry sky.
“Yeah, that’s the scariest thing!”
“They’ve been on the wave of the times, and we’re still looking at this little thing on Earth.”
“No, absolutely not, we have to get involved, and we have to get a place in the new era, otherwise we will never agree.”
Some people expressed strong dissatisfaction and extreme dissatisfaction on the spot. They can have a good life now, not because their ancestors colonized the world, seized land and resources, and left them a huge amount of land and resources, so they can easily live a happy life now.
This era of interstellar universe will be a new era of resources and living space explosion. If they cannot grasp the opportunities and opportunities in such an era, they will lose their future, and perhaps in the future, they will never again Unable to live a comfortable life now, I have to rely on hard work to earn a meager income to support my family in Hukou, just like the Orientals.
This is something they absolutely will not allow, and it is also unacceptable.
“What if you don’t agree?”
“Oriental people are not objects that can be bullied casually.”
Harry listened and said helplessly.
The rise and power of the Orientals, they have been trying to suppress them all the time, but they have never been able to suppress them.
However, with the rise of Xinghai Technology, in just a few years, everything has undergone tremendous changes. It was difficult to suppress, and now it is soaring. On the other hand, the economy has fallen into a boundless abyss. Wandering back has never been more difficult than it is now.
“We must unite, so that we can be stronger. Only in this way can we compete with the Orientals and gain the right to speak that belongs to us. In any case, in the interstellar era, we must not fall behind others, otherwise we will meet our destiny. It would be extremely tragic.”
“Yes, it must be united~ Resources belong to everyone, not theirs.”
…..
In a quiet villa in the eastern Japanese country, many elders gathered to discuss the current situation.
“Gentlemen, the wave of the interstellar era has arrived, and they can all go to the asteroid belt to mine resources, and even go to Mars to build space factories and immigration bases, but we have not even landed on the moon yet. go up.”
Ichiro Sato looked at everyone and said with great concern: “The interstellar era brings not only huge and vast resources, but also the space and foundation for the future development of a country and a nation.”
“Xinghai Technology is right. The resources of asteroids and the entire solar system are for the next step to truly buy the foundation of the interstellar universe era. Whoever masters and occupies more resources will master the future!”
“We are a country with limited resources, and we need resources very much. However, now, our eyes are still on the earth, and we have never been able to make a difference in interstellar space.”
“Xinghai Technology can already go to Mars to build space factories and mine asteroid resources, what about us?”
“One step behind is one step behind. If we cannot keep up with the trend of the times, we will lose our future and lose hope.”
“Zato-kun, what do you think we should do?”
Takahashi Jiro looked at Ichiro Sato and asked.
“I think we have to change our pro-West strategy. The West is weakening at a terrible rate, but the East is rising and growing like a rocket.”
“In the past few years, the world’s technological breakthroughs have all been in the East, and the major progress and development in the development of human history are all created by the Oriental Dragon.”
“Returning to the moon, mining resources on the moon, building a space fleet, mining asteroids, landing on Mars, etc., a magnificent era is coming, and the Orientals are constantly advancing towards the era of the interstellar universe.”
Ichiro Sato thought for a while and said very firmly.
“You mean to return to the East?”
When everyone heard this, they immediately frowned and thought deeply.
Since their innovation more than 100 years ago, they have always been one-sided towards the West, learning everything from the West, and even once it was popular to say that they were leaving Asia and joining Europe. They were the only powers in the East.
However, time has changed, and after more than a hundred years, the world has undergone such huge changes. The East is once again strong, while the West is constantly weakening.
Look at the current West, it is no longer the original West.
“We must keep up with the pace of development in the new era, and we will follow and learn from whomever is stronger. Only in this way can we seize the opportunities of the new era, gain a place in the new interstellar space era, and contribute to the future interstellar universe. time to lay the foundation.”
“Everyone, I have a hunch that the era of interstellar colonization is very likely to come soon. At that time, if we can seize the opportunity and get one or a few of our own planets in the interstellar universe, Then we can completely get rid of the shackles of the island country and become a truly powerful empire!”
Ichiro Sato’s eyes were firm, and fire flashed in his eyes, as if he saw the arrival of a big era, and saw a magnificent new era.
“I agree with Sato-kun. Maybe we should change over. The Westerners’ set of logic and thinking is actually a robber’s logic and thinking. It is based on external plundering. After all, this is not the long-term solution. , only self-improvement is the real way to be strong!”
“And this is the core of our Eastern thinking!”
PS: What do you think is the core difference between Eastern and Western ideological development?
