Tycoon: I can see the goddess's wish list-Chapter 850 - 846: Chasing Girls and Missions—Can You Really Do Both?
"Good evening!" Luofeng smiled at Shen Na and then turned to Shen Wei, "Sorry, Uncle, I forgot to mention that I know Shen Na!"
Shen Wei sighed again and felt relieved.
It didn't matter what Luofeng's intentions were for coming.
After all, his company had gotten help.
Besides, judging from Shen Na's attitude, she didn't dislike Luofeng, and that was enough.
Is it really that being handsome, young, wealthy, and awesome lets you do whatever you want?
Why does a glimmer of hope in Uncle's life disgust Shen Wei so much?
After Shen Wei left, Luofeng's phone vibrated. It was a message from Tang Ren in Siam.
"Bro, I'm sending you some news from the other side of Baiyue's Sea. Has our plan been discovered by the other side? Should we act in advance?"
As Luofeng checked Tang Ren's message, he said, "Student Shen Na, hold on a moment, I need to handle a bit of work!"
Shen Na hesitated for a moment and then suddenly said, "Thank you!"
Shen Na actually misunderstood as well.
Just like Shen Wei, she thought Luofeng was after her because she's a beauty.
But regardless of how Luofeng felt about Shen Na, whether he liked her or not,
whenever the system gave him a task, even if the target was unattractive, he would still acquire her company for the rich rewards, right?
Luofeng could only say that getting to pick up girls while completing tasks was such a great deal; he hoped for more opportunities like this in the future!
"Student Luofeng, I'm going over to my dad now, later... I'll come back to find you later!" Shen Na added.
Luofeng nodded, "Mm, okay!"
After Shen Na left, Luofeng put on his wireless earbuds.
Then he started playing the video sent by Tang Ren.
The video was an interview.
Luofeng generally didn't watch news or programs from that side, so he wasn't familiar with the hosts.
"Teacher Li, have you noticed that the prices of plastic bags and rubber gloves have been rising lately?"
In the video, the host began to ask a middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man was a well-known speaker.
"Yes, there are such issues; I noticed it at the wet market!" one of the guests chimed in.
"For this kind of economic issue, we must ask our Expert Huang to talk about it!" Teacher Li passed the question to the person beside him.
Teacher Huang replied, "From the current perspective, this price increase is within an acceptable range because, in recent years, global rubber demand has continuously increased, yet rubber production hasn't caught up. For instance, over ninety percent of our demand relies on imports! With supply unable to meet demand, we can only reluctantly accept such price hikes!"
The host inquired, "So, Teacher Huang, concerning this issue, is there any way we can change it? For example, could we grow rubber trees ourselves to reduce reliance on imports?"
Teacher Huang said, "The possibility is quite small. After all, rubber trees have strict growth environment requirements, mainly concentrated in the Southeast Asia region, which makes it very difficult for us to plant on a large scale!"
"Plus, our land area is very limited!" Teacher Huang said helplessly.
Teacher Huang continued, "The only solution is to acquire rubber plantations in Southeast Asia, control the place of origin, and thus reduce costs!"
Teacher Li, the renowned speaker, spoke, "Expert Huang, stop being so meticulous, such an assumption is a false proposition!"
The host looked at Teacher Li, "So, does Teacher Li have a different insight?"
"Let's assume that if we had companies controlling a piece of rubber plantation in Southeast Asia, it could solve our rubber import issues."
"And let's assume rubber market prices are 60,000 per ton, and when the market sees an increase, the price goes up to 70,000 per ton!"
"In this scenario, would our enterprise sell rubber at 60,000 per ton or 70,000 per ton?"
Faced with Teacher Li's questioning,
Teacher Huang replied, "It should be 70,000 per ton?"
Teacher Li said, "That's right! Enterprises need to make profit too. When market conditions are at 70,000, how could enterprises possibly sell to us at 60,000? So the hypothesis is a false proposition unless our government controls the rubber plantations, but the government isn't going to manage it!"
The host asked, "So regarding this rubber price increase, do the two teachers have any predictions?"
The video ended here.
Luofeng immediately messaged Tang Ren, "Brother Tang, where's the rest of the video?"
"There's no more, the interview program cut to commercials, and the rest was canceled!"
"So I suspect our plan might have been exposed?"
Tang Ren said through the earpiece.
Luofeng thought for a moment and asked, "In the spot market, has anyone been stockpiling?"
"No major stockpiling detected for now!" Tang Ren said, "Mainly because we've already integrated the Siam market, and the market along the Nixia shore is almost unified as well. We're also in the process of doing the same in Malay! We're not just targeting them but completing price control through an industry alliance!"
Luofeng laughed, "That's quite a ruthless move! If I recall, you have many pathways from the west and American rubber plantations, right? Is there any way to manage their output?"
Tang Ren said, "They're not significant. Their production can't even meet their needs; they require purchases every year! We certainly don't need to ally with them, and they wouldn't sell cheaply to the other side of Baiyue's Sea either!"
Luofeng said, "Then there's no problem! Regarding this video, Brother, there's no need to be anxious. Maybe they really did learn about our plan, but so what if they did?"
Far away in Siam, Tang Ren, hearing Luofeng's response,
thought for a moment and understood Luofeng's point.
Like Luofeng said, so what if they know? It's just a tiny place.
Luofeng quickly concluded the conversation with Tang Ren.
He casually sent a message to Tong Tianlong, "Check the spot rubber market, see if there's any stockpiling!"
"Boss Luo, one moment!"
In less than three minutes, Tong Tianlong replied.
"Boss Luo, there's no stockpiling for now!"
Luofeng said, "Then let's begin early arrangements; our plan is about to commence!"
Afterward, Luofeng put down his phone; it was just a few minutes before seven o'clock, and the ocean shipping evening banquet was about to start, so Luofeng took the opportunity to have a bite of the small cake.
Not to mention, it tasted quite good.
Luofeng looked around and didn't see Shen Na.
