1806 [The Thief Enters the Internet]
After receiving Xia Tian's order, Zhao Shikang immediately went to do it. Using the vest company registered in the tax haven British Virgin Islands to launch an oil well acquisition in Kuwait. The initial investment amount was 20 billion Hong Kong dollars.
"He really had an idea, and he actually wanted to use overseas companies to invest. Unfortunately, he was smart and confused for a while. The Virgin Islands are our British territory. Whenever there is any disturbance, we will receive the news." Pu Weishi smiled proudly, "Otherwise, he will be blinded by him."
"Mr. Pu Weishi has a wide range of hands and eyes and great powers. No matter how powerful Xia Tian is, he will never escape your Five Fingers Mountain." Li Zhaoji said with a smile.
"This is called "The Demon is one foot taller and the Road is one foot taller. Xia Tian thought that by investing in overseas companies, we could avoid our attention. However, we did not expect that we could control every move of him." Kessek also smiled.
"Okay, everyone, it's not the time for Wang Po to sell melons and boast about himself." Li Jiacheng waved his hand and said, "Mr. Pu Weishi, the key now is whether the oil well investment in Kuwait and Iraq is worth it?"
"If it were before, I was indeed not sure. But now, I think investing in Iraq and Kuwait is indeed a good opportunity." Pu Weishi nodded, "The Iraqi War has just finished fighting the Iraq-Iraq War. It is the time for restoration and restoration, and it urgently needs financial support.
Kuwait is one of the largest oil-producing countries in the Middle East. The sluggish oil prices in recent years have caused their countries to plummet incomes, their economy is sluggish, and they also need foreign investment in urgent need.
The only thing they can do in the two countries is oil wells, so if you want to buy it, you can indeed get it at a lower price. Once the oil price recovers, you will inevitably make a big profit."
After listening to his analysis, everyone's eyes lit up, thinking that his analysis was reasonable and convincing, and it was indeed very convincing. They were all moved and wanted to buy an oil well in the Middle East to survive the oil king's addiction.
"But, international oil prices will rebound in some ways. It may take three to five or seven years to wait." Li Jiacheng smiled slightly when he saw everyone looking eager to try.
"It's okay to wait for three or five or seven years. Oil is a non-renewable resource. In the future, with the growth of the economy, international oil prices will inevitably rebound. At that time, it will be several times or dozens of times the profit." Bao Yugang said with a smile.
"Yes, Brother Li, you have bought so many oil and gas wells in Canada. Isn't it just that I have the idea? Why are you still afraid that we won't be able to compete with you?" Guo Desheng smiled, his smile was very warm and his words were heartbreaking.
After hearing what he said, everyone looked at Li Jiacheng with a strange look.
They all know that in recent years, Li Jiacheng has been working hard to acquire Canadian oil and gas companies, and for this reason, he has not hesitated to let his eldest son Li Zeju become Canadian citizen.
But now he advised others that oil prices will rise at some point and that they will ask everyone to give up their investment. Isn’t this a thing or another?
Seeing Guo Desheng say this, Li Jiacheng waved his hand awkwardly, "Please don't get it wrong, I'm just a kind reminder. Whether you want to invest or not is up to you."
"Okay, now is not the time for internal strife. Everyone unites and defeating summer is our real goal." Pu Weishi saw that everyone had signs of internal strife, and quickly spoke.
In fact, this alliance is not stable, because everyone is doing business in Hong Kong, so there is naturally competition. Over time, a lot of new and old hatreds have been accumulated. Pu Weishi is a senior class who has just taken over as HSBC. In terms of qualifications and friendship, there are too many differences between Chen Bi, so these rich people don’t always give him face. If they can’t stand it, they will fight each other, which makes Pu Weishi feel very upset.
"Mr. Pu Weishi said, don't quarrel, we should think about how to defeat Xiatian." Li Zhaoji also agreed. Among all the people here, he suffered the most losses in Xiatian. Zhonglong gas is worth 30 billion Hong Kong dollars, and he spent hundreds of millions of dollars, which really made him suffer a big loss.
After hearing this, everyone nodded. After all, Pu Weishi still has to give him face.
"Who would like to agree to invest in Iraq and Kuwait raises his hand?" Pu Weishi then presided over the overall situation.
After thinking for a while, everyone raised their hands one after another. Even Bao Yugang, Guo Desheng, etc., who have never been involved in the energy industry, have raised their hands.
In their opinion, since Xia Tian and Li Jiacheng have invested in oil wells one after another, they must have made money in the future. Why not make a fortune with them?
"Okay, ten votes agree, that's it." Pu Weishi nodded.
"Mr. Pu Weishi, how much should we invest?" Jia Daoli asked curiously.
"As far as I know, it seems that summer has initially invested 20 billion Hong Kong dollars." Pu Weishi revealed that as a senior HSBC Bank, he has many unknown channels and can receive a lot of confidential information.
"I don't think we should lose to him. I suggest investing 50 billion Hong Kong dollars." Pu Weishi said then.
"Hong Kong dollars 50 billion?! It's a little too little. In my opinion, it's almost the same as 100 billion Hong Kong dollars." Zheng Yutong curled her lips when she heard it. Zheng Yutong's nickname is Sha Dantong, and she is the most bold. As long as she is sure of investment, she has always been willing to pay attention to money. And his investment vision has always been good, so she can make a big profit after returning.
"Yes, I can't buy a few oil wells for 50 billion Hong Kong dollars. Since I make money, of course I have to place a heavy bet, so that I can win more." Shi Huaiya also said.
"Investing in oil wells is indeed profitable, but the key is that the return is slow. Who knows when the oil price will recover?" Pu Weishi waved his hand and said, "Besides, you have already borrowed 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to trade real estate in Fusang. Are you still planning to borrow 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to trade oil wells?"
Among the richest people here, even the richest Li Jiacheng has only a net worth of only 20 billion Hong Kong dollars. And Li Zhaoji, who has the least wealth, only 8 billion Hong Kong dollars.
They had previously borrowed 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to speculate in real estate in Fusang, and had overdrawn their loan amount. Now they borrowed 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to speculate in oil wells. Even if HSBC supports them, they would not dare to take such risks. After all, it is okay to make a profit, but once they lose money, they can't even pay back the money.
"Mr. Pu Weishi, you also said that going to fry oil wells is profitable, so why bother so worried?" Zheng Yutong said unhappily when he saw Pu Weishi refused to borrow money.
The reason why they want to fight against Xiatian is mainly because of HSBC's instigation. Now it is easy to have the opportunity to make money, but HSBC has to go up the house to pull the ladder. Isn't this not only letting the horse run away but also letting the horse not eat grass?
"Yes, we don't refuse to pay back the money." Li Zhaoji said unsatisfiedly.
Now he has finally had the opportunity to make money and can still cheat him in the summer, but HSBC still has to mess with him and refuses to take out the money quickly, which also makes him feel very upset.
"No, if we do this, our HSBC will take too much risk." Pu Weishi shook his head and said.
These rich people all want to take out loans, but they don’t have decent collateral, which means that all the risks are on HSBC. If it’s one or two billion, it’s fine. The key is that it’s 100 billion Hong Kong dollars. Once the loss is made, something big will happen.
"We will spend the summer with you, and we also take great risks. If this is the case, I might as well disband if I see it." Li Zhaoji said unhappy.
"No, not bad, I think it's better to disband earlier." Zheng Yutong, Guo Desheng and others also echoed. They also looked down on Pu Weishi's sloppy appearance.
Seeing everyone saying this, Pu Weishi was also a little panicked. These wealthy people were supported by HSBC and used to help control the lifeline of Hong Kong's economy. If they were all separated from HSBC, then HSBC's decades of hard work would be wasted.
