Chapter 248 Acquisition of a new shipyard

"Ayao, do you think I want to implement your policy in Thailand? I have experienced too many coups in my life, which made me numb and really bored. If I implement your policy, can I reduce the occurrence of coups?"

"Your land area is large and the domestic population is tens of millions. You must be cautious in every move. If you really want to implement such a policy, then I suggest you can do it step by step, first conduct pilot projects, and then gradually expand it. Don't be confused. After all, these policies are all thought out by me. Fun is real, but they are not necessarily reliable. Only small countries can implement it. If it is inappropriate, it is easy to change. If the boat is small, it is easy to turn around.

And you can't do it. For example, if you want to implement a digital currency policy and then cancel the paper currency, your people may not be able to stand it. You can't cancel the religion, and there are tens of millions of Buddhists in your country, which will make a big fuss. There are also political parties. If you abolish the political party, you will have to work hard, which is no better than me, a piece of paper, and you can paint it at will.

The contribution points are actually complementary to the chip ID card and the database behind them. With the current computer level and your population size, I guess the cost alone is enough for you to drink a pot of money."

"Yes, the benefits of having more people are more people, but the disadvantages of having more people are more people. The stall is too big, and it is particularly difficult to carry out reforms. The corruption problem in Thailand is now very serious, but it is impossible to rectify it. I value the contribution point plan you talk about is to use it to clean the ruling team."

"Take it slow. With the rapid development of computer technology, when one day physical currency is cancelled, every transfer record can be clearly checked, and then asset registration and sorting are carried out through big data, corruption will become increasingly difficult."

"Okay, then I'm looking forward to the development of computer technology. I hope I can see that day coming. So depending on what you mean, are you going to vigorously develop the technology industry?"

"Of course, I can't do planting. Although I have a juice beverage company and a wine company, the added value of this thing is too low. There are many industries I want to invest in, including wind power generation, marine power generation, seawater desalination, sea reclamation and island building technology, new materials and new energy, computer technology, and Internet technology, all of which need to be studied.

I also want to build a luxury underwater resort hotel and build skyscrapers in the sea near the island. The transportation of the three islands of Lingxi will be electric vehicles, and will also support autonomous driving technology in the future. The remaining small islands will not allow any cars to exist.

I also want to build an airport on Xiang Island and two plane runways on Lingxi Island. Within ten years, all this will be realized and you can see it with your own eyes. When I invite you to stay here, it will definitely be no worse than your summer palace."

"I was so excited just by listening to you. I gave you these islands. It seems that they were for the right person. In our hands, I really can't bear to use hundreds of billions of dollars to build them. By the way, our royal family has many industries, and you should give priority to the use of our raw materials for these projects."

"Of course, as long as the quality is passed, I will definitely not look far and wide. I need all kinds of stone and steel, and I also need those precious woods. So, you don't have to worry about this financial crisis. You will definitely be able to stand up again in less than three years."

"Hey, hope! This financial crisis is really too hurt. It has been so hard for several years. Do you think the United States is making trouble behind this?"

"How obvious. You have developed so well that you cannot harvest a wave. You have to know that if the crops grow well, you have to harvest them, otherwise they will rot in the field."

After hearing Cang Yaozu's words, the old Thai king sighed again. It was so difficult for him.

Farewell to the old Thai King, Cang Yaozu and Zheng Bolin returned to their villa, while Ubonrat and her youngest son and daughter stayed with the old Thai King.

Cang Yaozu had supper with the girls, and then sat on the beach together and blew the sea breeze. Emily, Scarlett and Cang Guoguo were playing on the swing together, and laughter came from time to time. Jennifer has been pregnant for more than 4 months now and her belly is a little obvious, so she likes to wear looser skirts recently. Fortunately, the temperature in Hua Hin is high, so it won’t be cold no matter how you wear it.

After lying for a while, Cang Yaozu saw Scarlett and Emily running to the beach. It turned out that Jinglei ran over and followed the two giant pandas, Dabao and Erbao. Although the two girls had been playing with them for an afternoon, they still couldn't help but lean in with them. It was so rare for them to see them.

Cang Yaozu planned to keep all these animals on Lingxi Island, and then build a zoo on the island and sell tickets. Haha, it's such a good idea. Isn't this tourism industry available?

Cang Yaozu has already made relatively complete plans for the large-scale construction of Lingxi Islands. Of course, he will not bomb mountains and reclaim seas to build islands. Cang Yaozu's plan is to transport the soil and stones that excavate the Kara Canal to build islands when the Kara Canal is excavated. At the same time, through technical acquisition and investment, it is planned to start the construction of a large suction dredger to facilitate his sand to build islands.

Speaking of shipbuilding, the partner selected by Cang Yaozu is naturally China Merchants Heavy Industry Company. Cang Yaozu is also a major shareholder of China Merchants Bank after all, so of course he has to choose related companies to do this. Moreover, the future Tiankun suction dredger was made by this company. Those large suction dredgers established the name of China's island-building madman.

Of course, China is still a newcomer in the dredging industry. In order to quickly carry out shipbuilding work, Cang Yaozu is preparing to invest in two old Belgian dredging business companies, namely Yang Deno and Demi. These two companies have a history of dozens or hundreds of years. Cang Yaozu is preparing to dig one of them to Lingxi Country. If you really can't dig it up, you will establish a new company in a joint venture. Cang Yaozu has been a little tight recently, but he has a large number of orders, which is a good bait.

Cang Yaozu is so concerned mainly because these two companies are not only engaged in dredging business, but also in offshore wind power business, etc. Cang Yaozu has always been obsessed with the research and development and construction of offshore wind power and offshore nuclear power ships. Without electricity, there will be no fresh water, there will be no network, there will be no air conditioning, and there will be no everything. As an island country, the most important industries are electricity, water conservancy and shipbuilding.

Of course, Cang Yaozu also has demands for big guys such as sightseeing and accommodation submarines, large luxury cruise ships, warship submarines, etc. Cang Yaozu really wants to design several luxury cruise ships, such as setting up a goddess, or something to engage in adult business, and why should you grab the Pattaya business? Of course, you can actually cooperate to jointly build a super sea red light district.

To this end, Cang Yaozu specially sent the Lingxi private jet to Italy to take Old Agnelli and his newly recognized heir John Elkan to Hua Hin for a few days. Cang Yaozu found Old Agnelli for the Fincantieri Group, which is currently the world's largest cruise manufacturer, able to build all levels of cruise ships from modern to luxury, and also produce warships.

Cang Yaozu wanted to acquire some shares of this group or jointly build a new company with this group. Cang Yaozu really wanted to use the lithium battery technology he mastered to build pure electric versions of luxury cruise ships, pure electric versions of warships and submarines. Anyway, the main purpose of his construction of these things was not war, but mainly for tourism and visiting.

The reason why Cang Yaozu operates like this is because even if there is only one's own order, it can support the company, not to mention that it can be sold outside. Cang Yaozu tends to acquire a shipyard first, and then inject funds and technology with Fincantieri Group to complete the establishment of this pure electric ship company.

As for the location of the company, Cang Yaozu hopes to be Hua Hin or Songkhla in Thailand. Of course, it depends on where the old Thai king set it into a special economic zone. The controlling stake in this company will be in Cang Yaozu's hands, and 51% of the shares are necessary.

There was a private jet to pick up people in Italy. Old Agnelli and John Elkan came very quickly. On the sea viewing platform of the villa, Ginie Elkan accompanied Cang Yaozu to chat with them.

"Ayao, you just said, you bought three island groups of 812 square kilometers in Thailand and wanted to establish a country? My God, this is the most bizarre thing I have heard in decades. Thailand is really sold to you? Are you sure you are not talking in your sleep?"

"Old man, of course it's true. The old Thai king really sold it to me. For this reason, I will marry his granddaughter. She will be the first queen of this small country. Not only do I want to establish a small country, I also want to build Lingxi into a super island country that is better than Dubai. What kind of undersea luxury hotels, seven-star hotels, and luxury cruises are all about to be done. I have hired several world-renowned architectural firms to plan the entire Lingxi islands, reclamation of what should be reclaimed and what should be landed. For this plan, I will invest hundreds of billions of dollars in 20 years."

"You have so much money?"

"No, but I can make money. Several of my companies have developed very well. In a few years, it will be no problem to become a company with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars. At that time, my funds will be abundant. Building the Lingxi Islands is not a matter of overnight. I have time, and time can be exchanged for a lot of money."

"Okay, you little guy is really amazing. I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you to play like this."

"It was also a coincidence that not only encountered the Asian financial crisis that was rare in a century, but also happened to encounter the old Thai king's health."

"What's wrong with the bad health? Don't tell me that you can still cure the disease? The old Thai king is not young, right?"

"Well, it's 71, 7 years older than you. Although I can't cure my illness, I have some sapphires that have been blessed by the master. This sapphire is very good for the body and is priceless. I gave the old Thai king a big one, and he had to agree to my conditions."

"So magical? Can it really cure diseases? Do you still have it in your hands?"

"Since I've told you, I'll have it, but the big one is only 8 carats and the small one is only 2 carats, so I'll give it to you both."

Old Agnelli and John Elkan took it, looked horizontally and vertically, and could not see anything special about the stone, but they knew that Cang Yaozu would never deceive them in this regard. Then, they could only rely on time to verify it.

Cang Yaozu solemnly introduced: "This sapphire is produced in Paparacha, Sri Lanka. After the blessing of the master, it produced a magical effect. I named them Lingxi Stone, which means lotus sapphire rich in life energy.

As for the efficacy, you will know everything after wearing it for a few days. Just know this spiritual stone and its efficacy. Never tell anyone, otherwise it will be unbeautiful if you are robbed. Remember."

"Okay, Ayao, we've recorded it. By the way, on the phone, I heard you say that you are related to Fincantieri Company?"

"Yes, I will need a lot of luxury yachts, warships and submarines in the future, as well as some engineering ships, such as nuclear power ships, wind power ships and dredgers, etc. I want to use lithium batteries to power these ships instead of gasoline and diesel, so I want to acquire or invest in your Italian Fencantini Yacht Company to produce this new energy ship."

"A's wholly-owned subsidiary, a is controlled by the Italian State Finance Bureau. The company is quite large, but its market value is not high. It has been in losses for a long time in recent years. You also know that the shipbuilding and shipping industries have not been very prosperous recently, and the overcapacity is very serious. The government wants to start privatization, but the action may not be very big at the beginning."

"It doesn't matter if the recession is the case. I have to place a lot of orders, especially this kind of new energy ship. I am very optimistic about its future. I hope to invest 30%. Then Fencantini and I set up a new energy shipyard controlled by us in Hua Hin or Songkhla, Thailand. We have invested a lot of investment in R&D in lithium batteries and motor and electronic control. There are already a lot of patents. Fencantini has accumulated a lot of technology in the shipbuilding industry, and can join forces to create a new future for new energy luxury ships."

"I feel that this is very feasible, grandpa, what do you think?" John Elcan interjected.

"Ayao has invested such a lot of money, and it's okay if it doesn't work. The old man will run for you when he goes back. I have a lot of connections in both the political and business circles. There is also the matter of Ayao's establishment. As long as you marry our Ginny, I will definitely open up all the connections for you. Italy will establish diplomatic relations with you as quickly as possible and endorse you."

"Okay, old man is happy. Ginny, whether you can marry me depends on your performance in the future. Well, there are about 10 months left, and you have to work hard."

"Ayao, you are too shameless. You won't chat with you anymore. I'm going to find Giselle to study and make dinner." Ginny turned around and ran out, before leaving, glaring at the three annoying guys here fiercely.

"Ayao, do you want to establish a constitutional monarchy? Is it to solve the identity of women you?"

"Haha, you know. But it's not a constitutional monarchy. It's too tricky to create an elected government. It's all internal friction when it comes to quarrels and chooses. There's no need to do that in such a small country. Look at Thailand, it's too noisy to have a coup in a few years and a wild one in a few years. It's too noisy. This is not good.

My plan is to implement the company system, can it be called the monarch's company system? What if it is, it is the hereditary monarch, which is equivalent to the chairman. The prime minister is selected by the chairman. It can be his own family or other people. It is enough to have the ability. But the army must be in the hands of me and the Management Committee. The Prime Minister's task is to create higher returns, make the Lingxiguo general company stronger and stronger, and the following branches, subsidiaries and brother companies develop."

"Is this really a bit new in the monarchy?"

"In fact, it's not new. Many countries do this. The royal family set up a management committee, which is equivalent to the board of directors of a holding company. The monarch is the chairman of the holding company, and then the group company is established. The prime minister is the CEO of the group company. He then set up the board of directors of the group company and various functional departments to help him manage the entire group company. Then the group company is under the various subsidiaries and subsidiaries, and the overall layout is like this.

All I need to do is to control these companies and control the army, and then the royal family is hereditary, and all the Prime Minister and civil servants at all levels below are elected, not elections. We are a small country, so we must understand our positioning and not be foolish, which is too energetic."

"Ayao, you are very politically wise. It seems that our family is going to open a branch base here. Do you have any preferential policies?"

"There must be preferential policies. My family will set up a management committee. My relatives, women, and children are lifelong members of this management committee. Lingxiguo stipulates that enterprises controlled by the management committee are exempt from taxes and there is no fee. At that time, you ask the management committee to invest 30% of the shares, and then you will hold some shares for Jinni personally. Even if the company in your family is a company controlled by the management committee, you will enjoy the corresponding tax exemption.

The Management Committee generally does not interfere in the development and decision-making of various companies, but will give its subsidiaries some linkage and cooperation to promote their respective developments. In addition, it is to coordinate relations and prevent excessive internal competition. In the future, we will focus on the internal development of China and ASEAN, which means that East Asia and Southeast Asia are our basic platforms, and America and Europe are the markets we need to vigorously expand."
