Two days later, Sucheng received a diplomatic package from the Chinese Embassy, ​​which contained information about Setan collected by CNOOC.

Although only initial exploration was conducted, the proven reserves were 167 million tons and the water depth was less than 30 meters, which was the most suitable shallow sea oil deposit. Su Cheng thought to himself: If the single well production can reach more than 10,000 barrels, the cost would be only US$8, which might be less than US$5.

This price is cheaper than the onshore oil fields of Shengli Oilfield. Oil wells with a moisture content of more than 90% are both electricity and labor-intensive. They have been abandoned in the Middle East. This is definitely a good thing for countries and companies that have successfully bidding, but it means greater pressure for bidding.

"The bidding fee is probably going to rise. I wonder if there is any new news from the barber." Su Cheng turned his mind, put the documents back into the package, and then deposited them in the hotel safe.

Now there is more than a month left before bidding, and the location of the oil field should be the faster among all bidding companies.

Su Cheng saved the things, returned to the living room, and said, "Goro, I want to go out. You can stay in the room. If someone sends something, just put it away. Don't let others enter the house."

"I understand." Goro has experienced the competition for fishing boats at the port and the storm of international bidding. He has become very mature and is a brave and responsible Jingshan person, just like the Jingshan person who walked in the West Entrance era.

Su Cheng stayed with confidence and went to the tailor in Wahaibi Alley to retrieve a suit. Then he asked the other party to customize a tuxedo.

When he returned to the car, he tore open the lining of his suit and found a note from it, which contained a passage in English.

Sucheng took out a copy of Shakespeare with him. Following that passage, he found the page number and line number he was in, and then multiplied and subtracted with the agreed formula, and then obtained the current bid price: 41.2 million.

"It's so deadly!" Su Cheng let out a sigh.

This money is naturally not that much compared to oil reserves. However, if you haven't seen a drop of oil, you can pay 41.2 million US dollars first, which is also a challenge for multinational companies.

According to the unspoken rules of the oil industry, 40 million is already on the verge of the upper limit. Oil groups that bid for large oil fields every year have to prepare economic assistance plans with tens of millions or even more every year, and may lose all their money. These costs are equally distributed to a successful winning bid.

Behind each $40 million winning bid is the cost of a hundreds of millions of dollars in economic assistance programs.

Coupled with the huge exploration costs, Su Cheng felt a little scared.

He prepared a total of US$45 million... Domestic assets, except oil, cannot be cashed out. Moreover, they must be mortgaged as assets to Evergreen Group and Formosa Plastics Group...

Siu Cheng closed Shakespeare, looked out the window, settled himself again, and pondered his decision again.

He participated in international bidding before 1989. It was his only chance to obtain oil fields within a few years. Because domestic oil fields will never be sold to Chinese private enterprises, he lost this opportunity. Foreign oil fields will also set barriers for Chinese enterprises.

Su Cheng was unwilling to have the knowledge and information he had, because of political reasons, and it was less and less until it lost its effectiveness.

However, the pressure of international bidding still made Su Cheng think secretly: "Am I too anxious..."

The answer will never appear until the end of the matter.

Bentley stopped lightly in front of the Kempinski Hotel.

The waiter helped him open the door and stood respectfully.

Su Cheng handed out five dollars casually, walked into the hotel with the waiter's smile, and went straight to the swimming pool. He needed to calm down: 41.2 million means that the final bid price must be more than 42 million...even, 45 million US dollars may not be enough.

Although the third phase of financing has been prepared, it should be that the oil field was bid for and prepared for exploration.

"It seems that we can only raise funds from Formosa Plastics and Evergreen again." Su Cheng took a deep breath. It must be difficult...

He lowered his head and quickly raised it up again. He remembered what the teacher who followed the script said when he was in school: You must not show negative emotions.

The words that thought it was meaningless back then were so vivid now.

"Mr. Sucheng, we're meeting again." Moriyama Nori showed his teeth with a smile.

"Mr. Moriyama Nori, it's been a long time since I saw him." Su Cheng nodded slightly, and there was no expression on his face. After experiencing all the things he had traveled through time, his temperament was also tempered and became more persevering. In fact, every young man who can be a "face dominant" has the factor of perseverance.

Moriyama Nori's bold laughter attracted countless people's attention and said: "Has it been half a month since we last met? I didn't expect that Dahua Industry is not favored by anyone, and has become a strong competitor. I will introduce you to a friend, Mr. Takanobu Ito, the vice president of Ito Trading Company."

"Mr. Ito." Su Cheng nodded.

Takanobu Ito is about 40 years old and has a tall figure, which is equivalent to Sucheng. This is very rare among the Japanese who came from before the war. When he smiled, he was also arrogant, but he just concealed it well, saying, "Mr. Sucheng. We have got a rumor that doesn't know whether it is true or not. Dahua Industrial has obtained an oil field location?"

Su Cheng looked at him without any expression.

"We also know the location of the oil field, and maybe we can confirm each other."

“No need.”

"Are you very sure of your intelligence source?" Takanobu Ito smiled.

Su Cheng asked back: "Don't you believe in your source of information?"

Ito laughed and said, "You are indeed an interesting Chinese. Maybe we can cooperate."

"No." Sucheng answered quickly and resolutely.

Ito said in surprise: "Don't you listen to the cooperation content? I believe it must be the condition you like."

Su Cheng shook his head and said, "It's nothing more than capital, technology and equipment...I don't need it."

"No need? The situation of Dahua Industrial is not like this. I heard about you going to Taiwan to raise funds, so I guess how many? 45 million?" Takanobu Ito directly said the exact number.

Su Cheng frowned and said, "You are a little too concerned about Dahua Industry. Maybe if you turn your target to the UAE, you can get better rewards."

"I know how to defeat you, 45.5 million." Takanobu Ito raised his head: "If you don't work with us, we will raise the bid price to 45.5 million."

"It increased from 30 million to 45.5 million? Because I have so much funds?" Su Cheng said, "This is not even evidence, it is the basis at best. Can the shareholders of Ito Trading Company agree?"

"I have obtained the president's consent. The major shareholders of Ito Trading Company are all members of the Ito family."

"Family members are the most troublesome, right? As long as you have a problem, someone will blame you immediately." Su Cheng smiled and said, "If you are willing to bid based on the total amount of funds from China Dahua Industrial, then you can do whatever you want."

Takanobu Ito said dismissively: "The price will rise in the end."

"oh?"

"It's Setan." He said lightly, "The reserves of 1 billion barrels have been initially discovered, and it will increase in the future."

Su Cheng was shocked.

He thought Ito Trading Company had obtained an unstable source of intelligence, and perhaps it could still obtain information through means. However, there were actually only a few people who could obtain the location of the oil field. The king, the crown prince, and perhaps two or three chiefs, but not all.

In fact, Su Cheng did not see the crown prince either. He only contacted the crown prince through his confidants around him.

However, wealthy and developed countries such as Japan and Switzerland can convince their leaders and have a direct contact with the crown prince and the king.

"If Dahua Industrial has the intention to cooperate, come to me again." Takanobu Ito left with a smile.

Sucheng knew that he was interested in oil concessions.

Ito Trading Company would never dare to sign a contract for the 180 billion tons of liquefied natural gas underwriting agreement. However, if Dahua Industrial undertakes this underwriting agreement, Ito Trading Company will share the oil concession, which is a very cost-effective transaction for them. Therefore, it has nothing to do with the expenditure on equipment.

As for the intelligence relationship that Su Cheng has, as a tycoon, it is probably very suitable for the Ito family's appetite.

Su Cheng walked into the swimming pool without saying a word. Under the service of the waiter, he changed into brand new swimming trunks, walked out of the locker room with a towel, and then jumped directly into the constant-thermal swimming pool.

The water is cooler than the outside, like washing your face with tap water in summer.

Su Cheng slowly sank into the bottom of the swimming pool, sitting cross-legged, thinking in an extremely quiet environment...

The lifeguard jumped into the swimming pool and rescued Sucheng, who had disappeared for a minute.

Su Cheng pushed him away, changed his breaths, and sank into the swimming pool again.

The lifeguard was used to seeing all kinds of sentient beings in the hotel, so he had to stay by the side of Sucheng. Kempinski had several swimming pools of different depths and lengths, so naturally other lifeguards came to take the shift.

Sucheng poked out of the swimming pool once a minute later.

Water and quiet allow him to think better.

Su Cheng knew in his heart that when he reached this point, no matter how accurate the future information was, he could not help him. Everything had to be adapted to the situation.

Just like bidding money, it always changes according to the bidder.

He climbed out of the swimming pool, wiped the water on his body, found the phone number, called Formosa Plastics Group Hong Kong Power Supply, and informed them to add another $10 million in funds. This was naturally extremely difficult. I guess when Wang Sheng and the others saw it, they would get angry again.

Su Cheng shook his head and went back to his room to rest.

Of course, he could not be the only one who felt the difficulty. Zhang Haochang was also making a desperate call to fight for natural gas underwriting; while Ito Trading Company was working hard to get more funds.
