Chapter 701 The Restless Grain Merchant
Canada's oil fields are mainly located in the central part of the country, and transported to the west coast has to traverse thousands of kilometers of mountains in the entire Cordillera Mountains.

There are not only mountains in the middle, but also a large number of lakes and rivers. The construction is very difficult, and many environmentalists made trouble during the construction.

These people sneaked into the construction site in the middle of the night to cut the cables and fill the fuel tank with water.

Even more reckless, he went straight to the middle of the road, obstructed the passing of trucks transporting equipment, and was able to lie down and accept media interviews.

The entire project was shut down several times by these people.

The construction site can only resume work after they have finished their supplies and the media has left!
"Can't we call the police?" Yang Dongsheng asked.

"It's useless to call the police. Environmentalism is now politically correct! Environmentalists have always believed that they occupy the moral high ground and act recklessly. In Canada, their performance is still good. Overseas, they even dare to use explosives! If the police dare to arrest people , the next day the police station will be surrounded by more environmentalists, and the media will get wind of it." James Whistler said.

"I dare to use explosives overseas, because I'm bullying the weak and afraid of the strong!" Yang Dongsheng sneered, "Environmentalism? Still not hungry!"

What green peace, environmental protection little princess, are double standard party!

Some countries eat pork, and they see it; other countries eat beef, but they don’t see it; some countries help backward countries build thermal power plants overseas, and they scream louder than anyone else; when other countries dump nuclear sewage , they collectively went blind again...

"ADM and Cargill expressed their willingness to buy out our wheat and corn production in the next five years at a price 15% higher than the current price!" James Whistler said again.

Aidimon and Cargill are two of the world's four largest grain merchants, both headquartered in the United States.

Among them, Aidimon's corn processing and oil pressing ranks first in the world, and flour processing can also rank first in the world. Aidimeng is also the largest corn-based ethanol company in the United States.

Cargill is one of the world's largest producers of meat and corn feed, as well as flour milling.

Judging from their industrial structure, Aidemeng and Cargill do need a lot of corn and wheat.

But do they need to buy corn and wheat from Alice?The United States is now the world's largest exporter of wheat and corn!

"After tossing soybeans, they started tossing corn and wheat again!" Yang Dongsheng said.

"It's not surprising. The four major grain merchants have never made money by doing grain business honestly! Using the grain supply and demand information they have, speculating in futures is their biggest source of profit." James Whistler said.

"They make an extra dollar, and I don't know how many more people will starve to death every year. We don't make this kind of money, so don't deal with them in the future!" Yang Dongsheng said with a gloomy face.

The speed of Alice's expansion in the past one or two years has indeed slowed down, and the resources and land she has obtained have also decreased.

However, as the prices of various resources increased, Alice's revenue and profits also increased.

In the first quarter, Alice's turnover exceeded 300 billion U.S. dollars, with a profit of nearly 110 billion U.S. dollars.

Now they have oil fields in the United States, the world's largest oil consumer; on the eve of the rapid growth of the semiconductor industry, they control the world's highest-quality unimin quartz placer; in Germany, France, and Italy, which are major natural gas importers in Europe, they There are natural gas fields...

In the first five months of this year, Alice achieved a total output of 3600 million tons of coal, 1.7 million barrels of crude oil, 550 billion cubic meters of natural gas, 4000 million tons of iron ore, and 160 million tons of refined copper ore.

In addition, there are diamonds, rubies, sapphires, wheat, grass, beef, mutton, dairy products, piped gas, etc.

Now Alice's farms, pastures, forest farms, real estate, coal mines, oil fields, natural gas fields, iron ore, tungsten mine, quartz placer, lithium mine, cobalt mine... are all over the world.

James Whistler reports back on the movie and the team.

A release date for "Thor" has been set, and pre-production work has begun on the first "Avengers."

As for the team, the Mavericks won the championship again and achieved three consecutive championships.

There are also hidden dangers. Gasol has the last year of his contract left in his rookie period. The Mavericks discussed with him and his agent about renewing his contract in advance.

The Mavericks offered a big contract with an average annual salary of $1000 million, although it was not a maximum salary.

In this life, Gasol was only selected with the sixth overall pick in the first round, and he has been playing as a substitute for the past few years during his rookie period. He and his agent can accept this price, but one of Gasol's renewal conditions is He's going to start.

This puts the Mavericks in a dilemma!

Although Gasol is an All-Star player and can play both positions of center and power forward, the Mavericks' current starting center is Duncan, and the starting power forward is Nowitzki.

Compared with these two people, Gasol's advantage is that his free throw level is better than Duncan's, and his level of playing center is better than Nowitzki's.

Yang Dongsheng can only choose to send Gasol away in exchange for draft picks.

There is another Bobcats team in the NBA this year.

In order for the Bobcats to form a team in the new season, each team can set up a protection list of 8 people among the existing members. Outside the protection list, the Bobcats can choose at most one player at will.

Yang Dongsheng quickly determined the protection list: Duncan, Nowitzki, Billups, Tayshaun Prince, Josh Howard five starters, plus Gasol, Boozer, Steve • Blake three substitutes.

Even so, Yang Dongsheng still doesn't want the Bobcats to choose someone from the Mavericks, because the Mavericks are not included in the protection list as well as Fred Hoiberg, Haslem, Matt Barnes and other outstanding players.

Fred Hoiberg has a three-point shot, and Haslem and Matt Barnes are iron-blooded fighters!

After brief talks between Jobs and Vice President Huang, and Bezos and Yang Huai, they went to Shanghai and Guangdong, respectively, to visit Dongsheng Semiconductor and Dongsheng Technology.
