Chapter 156: A fleet of six million tons with a total load passed through the Suez Canal! Five times liquidated damages!!
Dahua Zhengshi said: “Mr. Dong, I don’t know much about this aspect, and I don’t know anything about it. ”
“Excuse me if you can introduce your company’s ships that can carry ocean freight.”
“Probably how many tons can it carry? What are the types? ”
“I can tell what kind of freighter I need.”
“Okay.”
Tung Chee-hwa nodded and said, “Since Manager Yan is talking about ocean-going business, I will not introduce those small ships that can only reach Southeast Asia as far as possible, let me briefly introduce them.” ”
Seeing that Dahua had no opinion, Tung Chee-hwa continued: “Generally, arrangements are made according to the type of goods to be transported and the mode of transportation. ”
“Such as oil tankers, container ships, ro-ro ships, barges, bulk carriers…”
Seeing that Dahua was a little puzzled, Tung Chee-hwa smiled.
After all, he has been immersed in this industry for several years, and he naturally knows the types of boats.
The layman must be confused when he hears it.
He took out a document from the drawer and said with a smile: “The specific documents of these types of ships are introduced in detail, Manager Yan can take a look.” ”
“What I explain verbally alone may cause some misunderstanding.”
“Good.”
Dahua nodded, raised his right hand and said, “Mr. Dong, I’ll see it later, please continue.” ”
Tung Chee-hwa continued with a smile on his face: “Among these types, container ships are generally widely used, which are inclusive… However, there is now less business and more bulk carriers are used. ”
Dahua couldn’t help nodding when he heard this, and asked, “Mr. Dong, please introduce the specific tonnage of these ships.” ”
“Oriental Shipping has a total cargo capacity of more than 10 million tons”
“Ships that can carry ocean-going cargo have different capacities depending on the type of ship.”
“However, the total deadweight tonnage (full load displacement minus empty ship displacement) is basically in the 450,000 tons.”
“The largest Tianlong is 200,000 tons, and the smaller one is 3,000 tons, I don’t know what class of ship your company needs?”
Flipping through the introduction documents of the ship, Dahua asked seriously: “Mr. Dong, how many freighters are there more than 10,000 tons?” ”
Tung Chee-hwa blurted out: “Regardless of the type, there are 167 ships above the 10,000-ton level, with a total capacity of about 6 million tons. ”
“Okay.”
Dahua nodded and said, “Mr. Dong, let’s talk about the price of renting these ships for a round trip. ”
Tung Chee-hwa suspected that he had misheard.
Six million tons of deadweight.
Even at full load tonnage.
But minus the weight of fuel, fresh water and other reserve items that need to be stored during the ship’s voyage.
According to the net deadweight tonnage, it will not be less than five million tons.
What goods do you need to ship?
Need so much?
“Manager Yan, you’re not kidding me, are you?”
Tung Chee-hwa said in disbelief.
“Mr. Dong, do you think I’m joking with you?”
Dahua was also not annoyed, and asked rhetorically with a smile.
“Manager Yan, don’t mind, I’m not questioning you.”
“It’s just a little hard to believe, after all, you don’t know much about this industry, the total load capacity of six million tons, I am worried that this carrying capacity exceeds the needs of your company.”
“Or I misheard.”
Tung Chee-hwa pushed his glasses and hurriedly explained that this was true.
That would be great, directly solving the company’s urgent needs.
This business can’t be yellow.
“Mr. Dong, don’t worry, I read it right, and you heard it right.”
Dahua shook his head, gave a definite answer, and continued: “In addition to liquefied natural gas ships and refrigerated ships, there are other types of ships left, which our company needs. ”
“So, Mr. Dong, introduce the price of renting these ships for round-trip transportation.”
It turned out to be true.
Lost by the huge surprise.
Tung Chee-hwa couldn’t believe it.
But, before professionalism.
Immediately came to his senses and said: “Manager Yan, the transportation cost is calculated according to the distance, which country is your company going to?” ”
“Mr. Dong reminded me and almost forgot to say.”
Dahua laughed self-deprecatingly.
“It’s okay, it’s the same now, after all, people have strengths, Manager Yan is proficient in security, and I am proficient in shipping business.”
Tung Chee-hwa said with a smile.
This business is the biggest cooperation in recent years.
Or a full category all-inclusive.
If only we could talk about it.
The company can hold on for years again.
Now his mood can be described as seven up and eight down.
Happy and worried that the duck in hand flew, it could not be said that it was not entangled.
“First go to the sun never sets, then to Yilang, and then from Yilang back to Hong Kong Island.”
Dahua nodded and gave the answer.
Tung Chee-hwa blurted out: “We must first reach the sun from Malacca, the Suez Canal, and the Mediterranean Sea. ”
“When the sun never sets, if you go to Iran, you can go from the Atlantic Ocean, the Strait of Gibralto, the Mediterranean, the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait…”
“Mr. Dong, wait.”
Dahua interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
“What’s wrong? Am I wrong? ”
Tung Chee-hwa asked with some doubts.
“Mr. Dong, you don’t need to tell me how to take these routes, after all, I don’t understand, you just need to tell me how much it costs to go back and forth.”
Dahua said with a smile.
Tung Chee-hwa reacted, and hurriedly said: “Yes, yes, you see my memory, sorry, sorry.” ”
“Don’t get in the way, Mr. Dong, let’s talk about the price.”
Dahua said with a smile.
“Okay, according to the current price, if you take such a trip, the transportation cost is about 80 million to 90 million Hong Kong dollars.”
“However, the specific cost has to be discussed with the Ministry of Transport before I can give the specific cost.”
Tung Chee-hwa thought about it and said seriously.
Afraid to scare away such a big money lord.
Tung Chee-hwa added: “Manager Yan, if you don’t believe it, you can go out and inquire, this is already a very favorable price, after all, your company needs a little more cargo ships, and the road is long.” ”
“You don’t have to inquire.”
Dahua shook his head and said with a smile: “I still know the reputation of Oriental Shipping very well, otherwise I would not have found your company here.” ”
“Thank you Manager Yan for your trust, I can guarantee that China Eastern Shipping will not disappoint your company.”
Only then did Tung Chee-hwa relax his heart.
“Mr. Dong, without further ado, I will ask the key question, in the middle of January next year, can all these ships be in place?” A trip back and forth must be within five months, is there a problem? ”
Dahua Zhengshi asked.
Hearing this, Tung Chee-hwa frowned and thought.
There is certainly no problem with this aspect of the vessel.
It’s only early November, after all.
And there is no business either.
Some scattered transport can be returned to Hong Kong Island in early January.
After that, you can just push out all the scattered business.
The most critical thing is the limitation of shipping time.
But.
If the sun does not set from the Suez Canal, it will only take about a month.
Even if you have to go to Yilang again, there are accidents in the middle that delay some time, and five months is enough.
Think there will be no mistakes.
Dong Chee-hwa said with a smile: “Manager Yan, no problem, five months is enough.” ”
“Mr. Dong, it’s not that I don’t trust you, because the goods transported by the company are more dependent on timeliness, so there is a time stipulation, this must be signed on the contract, and the liquidated damages I require are five times the transportation cost.”
Dahua said solemnly.
“Manager Yan, I understand this, and I can also agree.”
Tung Chee-hwa smiled and nodded.
This is very common in shipping, but he thinks it’s nothing.
That is, Manager Yan is not familiar with this industry, so he will be so solemn.
Although he didn’t know what kind of cargo the shield fox was transporting.
However, it can be guessed that such a large amount must not be an ordinary commodity.
In the case of some minerals, prices are not static.
At a certain time the price will soar.
Naturally, precise timing is required.
Very normal.
Tung Chee-hwa is still very confident in his own company’s transportation capacity.
“Okay, then I’m relieved.”
Dahua nodded and said with a smile: “Mr. Dong, the matter is more urgent, it is better that you discuss with the Ministry of Transportation now and give a specific freight fee.” ”
“I can wait for you here, if the price is right, you can sign a contract today, and tomorrow the company will call the deposit.”
Saying that, Dahua pointed to the man beside him and said, “Look, I even brought a lawyer.” ”
“No problem, Manager Yan, then I’ll leave company and bother you to wait for me for a few hours.”
Tung Chee-hwa hurriedly agreed to come down.
He is also anxious, it is better to finalize it today, there are many long dreams at night.
“Don’t get in the way.”
Dahua shook his head and said with an understanding smile.
Tung Chee-hwa gave a smile and hurriedly left the reception room.
Three hours later.
Tung Chee-hwa stretched out his hand with a spring breeze on his face and said, “Happy cooperation.” ”
“Happy cooperation!”
Shaking his hand, Dahua said with a smile: “Mr. Dong, the deposit of two thousand years will be hit in your company’s account tomorrow.” ”
“Please have the freighter ready before January.”
“Manager Yan, don’t worry, it won’t disappoint you.”
Tung Chee-hwa nodded and said.
Don’t need Dahua’s advice.
He will personally supervise this matter.
This funding will not only alleviate the company’s predicament.
It is still the key to turning losses into profits next year.
Besides, there is also the five-fold liquidated damages, no matter what, you have to pay attention.
“I am relieved with President Dong’s words, then I will go back first.”
Dahua took his leave.
“Manager Yan, I’ll send you.”
Tung Chee-hwa stood up and said enthusiastically.
“It’s too polite, no need, Mr. Dong, stop…”
Dahua waved his hand and said.
“No, no, Manager Yan, I’ll send it to you.”
Tung Chee-hwa insisted.
“Okay, then it’s troublesome.”
Seeing him so enthusiastic, the smile on Dahua’s face was a little strange, and he nodded and said with a smile.
“No trouble.”
Tung Chee-hwa shook his head.
If you have such a big list, how can you be troublesome, if you have this kind of trouble, please come more often.
Send Yan Hua away.
Tung Chee-hwa returned to his office.
Looking at that contract, my face was full of joy and I was very happy.
“Now the company is saved.”
