Reborn as an oil tycoon

Chapter 503 The Last Ticket

Listening to Jiang Chao's explanation, Jiang Ruolin gradually relaxed her frown.

"Kids, just take care of your own studies."

"Remember to call me when you get back to school!"

Afterwards, Jiang Chao, who had a ghost in his heart, hurried on the plane.

Jiang Ruolin also returned to her residence.

On the other side, after getting off the plane, Jiang Chao couldn't wait to send a call to Jin Yang who was far away in China.

"Brother Jin, I'm back in Washington!"

"You must not lose the chain, you must help me settle the school, this time I took a great risk to skip school and run to Houston."

Jin Yang on the opposite side smiled, "Don't worry, I will take care of your high school and Howard University you want to go to in the future."

"Americans are dogmatic, but when they have money to open the way, they are just like that."

"Also, you did a great job this time."

"I have transferred $10 to your account."

"You can take drugs and pick up girls as much as you want."

Hearing his words, Jiang Chao's eyes flashed an indulgent light that was extremely inconsistent with his age.

"Okay, Brother Jin, thank you!"

"I will continue to support you in pursuing my sister!"

……

On the third day after Liu Shang prepared his ultimate petroleum additive, he suddenly received a call from Sauron.

On the phone, Sauron just said that he happened to be passing by and would like to pay a courtesy visit.

It is also to express Seadrill's emphasis on the Huaguo market.

Liu Shang smiled, then took Shi Lei together, and went out naturally as usual.

When he came to the agreed, very luxurious mountaintop holiday villa, Liu Shang met Sauron and two other people, Tata and Mitchell.

In the end, when Shi Lei was blocked and only the four of them were left in the garden on the second floor, Tata spoke first.

"Hello, Liu, I'm the arbitration officer of Seadrill, and Mitchell is the secretary general of our board of directors."

"To be frank and honest, we came to see you this time to hear about your bargaining chips for our company."

"As far as I know, your Light Wheel Group is far from having this strength."

"Of course, with the mystery of your country, I believe there is a shadow of your country behind you."

"Of course, please don't misunderstand, our company has no problems."

"We came this time just out of curiosity..."

Seeing that they were still in the fog, Liu Shangqiu sighed.

"Actually, today's scene is already in my expectation."

"Moreover, the arrival of the two of you today has confirmed my thoughts even more."

"I'm a person who doesn't like to go around when talking about business."

"Also, I don't think we have time to circle around."

"Once the hungry wolves like Schlumberger and Halliburton come to their senses from the other side, it will be difficult for us to make a deal."

Hearing Liu Shang's incomparably firm words, and seeing his incomparably firm eyes, after a while, Tata still sighed.

"Before the negotiations, can I ask a personal question."

"Where did you get the top-secret information about our group company?"

"It's not exactly accurate, though."

Liu Shang smiled, "We have an old Chinese saying that there is no impenetrable wall in the world."

"In the case of top-secret information, there will be a day when it will be leaked."

"Also, looking carefully at some external data, there are some clues."

"During the US subprime mortgage crisis and the global financial tsunami, your company has been greatly affected."

"In addition to the plunge in international crude oil prices, OPEC and other oil member countries not only did not cut production, but even further increased production."

"Then the impact on your offshore oil business will be even greater."

"On the data sheet, Seadrill's daily lease for drilling rigs has dropped from $80 to $40."

"I estimate that there is still a large part of the water in the $40."

"In order to cut costs, you laid off 1724 employees."

"Of the 1724 people who were laid off, 1393 were sea workers and 331 were land-based workers."

"It also shows that your offshore drilling business is very pessimistic."

"Also, all of this is not just my speculation. I also learned about some extreme situations within your company through top-secret channels."

"Of course, it's not convenient for me to go into details about the others."

After listening to Liu Shang's words, Tata and Mitchell's expressions became a little ugly.

After any company learns that its core secrets have been leaked out, it is afraid that it will not be in a good mood.

"During this global financial tsunami, there are too many companies that have laid off employees and been affected."

"That doesn't mean anything."

"However, we also admit that the company does encounter some difficulties at present."

"But it's not nearly as serious as you might think."

"If you are interested, we can sell you a part of the equity."

Liu Shang shook his head, "What I want is not just a part of the equity."

"I want all of Seadrill."

Listening to Liu Shang's determined tone, Tata shook his head.

"Well, if we'll sell."

"What is the price you quoted?"

Later, the price quoted by Liu Shang surprised and angered Tata and others.

"what?!!"

"A billion dollars?"

"Are you kidding us?"

"Do you know what the market value of our company is?!"

Liu Shang smiled, "No matter your company's market value is tens of billions, it is meaningless when it is in an avalanche or bankruptcy."

"In addition to this billion dollars, I also need to accept all the current debts of your company."

"I don't know its exact number, but how many are there?"

"80 billion? Or 100 billion?"

Before the extremely angry Tata and the others could speak, Liu Shang clapped his hands, and then Shi Lei downstairs put an extremely exquisite small alloy box containing several small bottles of medicine on the table.

"The medicine inside will start the next round of technological revolution in the oil industry."

"With it, crude oil extraction, shale gas and shale oil technology around the world will make a qualitative leap."

"At that time, your extremely expensive offshore drilling business, your offshore platform leasing business, will be devastated."

"So, your bankruptcy time depends on me!"

"This one billion dollars is the last boat ticket I bought for you."

"I will stay here for at most half a month."

"Besides, Schlumberger and other oil service giants leave us with only so much time."

"By the way, the reagents inside must be kept secret."

"Otherwise, once these hungry wolves smell blood, you Seadrill will definitely be dead."

After saying this, without waiting for Tata and the others to respond, Liu Shang led Shi Lei and turned around and left.

　Thank you [Violent Flying Man] for the 2000 points rewarded by the master, thank you very much!
