Chapter 122: Don't Blind Your Eyes
Your Highness, don't come unharmed. Here is 30 billion US dollars, which is the income of the blue sovereign and royal funds in this series of investments. There may be more than a billion in the follow-up, and I can't pay you back until I withdraw some of the chips in the Hong Kong real estate stock sector. I promise to pay it all before next year's Chinese New Year. ”
On October 1, the first day after returning to the Lanfang Islands, Gu Kun took great pains to visit the Grand Duke Zhu Youdong, who he had not seen for several months, and offered the funds that he should have given.
Prior to this, Zhu Youdong was a little suspicious of Gu Kun after all, even if he was already inclined to regard him as a son-in-law, the case of the Lanfang Oilfield, more than 2 billion barrels of oil, excluding the cost of exploitation, was worth more than 50 billion US dollars.
Even if Gu Kun wants to pay taxes, divide the dirty, and divide the scope of interests with Huaxia in exchange for Huaxia's military protection and international relations, Gu Kun can still net at least 200 billion yuan.
Even if it is a son-in-law, if the son-in-law has too much power and too much money, I am afraid that his daughter will suffer in the future, and he will not dare to restrain her husband.
However, at this moment, seeing that the $3 billion in real money has arrived, and there will be more than a billion in a few months, the last trace of unwillingness in Zhu Youdong's heart has finally been completely erased.
What's not to be satisfied with?
Two or three billion oil interests, first, it is Gu Kun's good intentions and good rewards, and the chosen ones are always helping him, and he can't be jealous.
Second, oil is such a thing, after all, it pays attention to a production-to-reserve ratio, and it is not something that can be dug up all at once. Therefore, the value of options lying underground to be developed must be discounted compared with the cash that has been received with real money.
In most countries in the world where there is no time limit for freehold land rights and mineral exploitation rights, the ratio of mining to reserves is between 70 and 90, which means that a mine or oil field will take 70 or 80 years to be excavated.
In this case, the cost of mining facilities is the most economical in terms of overall calculation, so that there will be no problem that "the built equipment and planned facilities are not used up enough, the mine is dug up, and the facilities that have not been completely depreciated are scrapped".
Only miners and coal bosses in a very small number of countries such as Huaxia generally use the plan of "35 times the ratio of mining to reserves", and the mines they get their hands on will be dug up in 35 years. But this is very cost-effective in terms of cost, and the waste of duplicate construction and insufficient depreciation is extremely serious.
The reason why the Chinese people do this is not based on technical reasons, but purely because of laws and policies. Because China's mineral deposits and land are state-owned, coal bosses can only get the right to contract for a maximum of 30 years.
In addition, the coal boss is always worried about uncertain factors such as policy changes and hatred, so even if the extensive construction is repeated and the expansion is crazy and wasteful, it is necessary to ensure that the contracted mine is completely dug up within 30 years, and it is best to leave no hair for future generations after the contract expires.
Obviously, the Lanfang oilfield can't do this, because the previously estimated "$15 per barrel of production cost" is based on "other oilfield infrastructure except for wear parts, which will be depreciated for 70 years after construction". If the Lanfang Oilfield also wants to learn from the Huaxia model and accelerate the realization of crazy money, and dig it up in 30 years, it will not be a cost of 15 US dollars, but may rise to a mining cost of 25 US dollars. All in all, the gains outweigh the losses.
In later generations, Saudi Aramco claims to have more than 200 billion barrels of crude oil reserves, but it can be valued at two or three trillion US dollars in the international financial market. The financial valuation of a barrel of oil reserves is less than $15, which is far lower than the international oil price.
In the same way, there is 80 billion US dollars worth of oil under the ground of Lanfang, which is worth 50 billion after deducting the extraction cost, and if it is really converted into the market value of the oil company, it may be discounted to 20 or 30 billion, and the benefits that can be attributed to Gu Kun will be more than 10 billion.
More than 10 billion dividends are not necessarily more fragrant than four or five billion dollars in cash, and they save you from worrying.
Zhu Youdong, who had completely turned the corner in his heart, became more and more cordial to Gu Kun: "What is the urgency of the virtuous son-in-law, our money is the family's money, what are you anxious to do with me, continue to keep it in your hands, I am very relieved." ”
Zhu Youdong is relieved, Gu Kun doesn't want to be reassured. He was in a hurry to repay the money, also because of the Internet bubble next year, Gu Kun didn't want to take Zhu Youdong to play, so he had to settle the account as soon as possible.
As mentioned earlier, according to Gu Kun's prediction, after the end of the Internet bubble and the successful cashing out of telecom network stocks at a high level, his own earnings could increase sixfold in the past two years.
And Zhu Youdong's money has risen from more than one billion to four or five billion, but it has actually only quadrupled.
There is still a difference of twice the principal, and the joint is that "Gu Kun only takes Zhu Youdong to play the first half", and only unites with Zhu Youdong when he is still short of money.
Of course, you can't say that, you have to play Weng Ci and filial piety.
Gu Kun's answer was very modest: "Your Highness has won the prize, the more I earn, the more cautious I am, and I deeply feel that I am not capable - Warren Buffett, the god of stocks, rarely makes a move, he only takes a shot to study the most thorough industry by himself, and he doesn't touch anything he doesn't understand."
In this line of investment, those who do not have to serve are belligerent and will die. I think I've exhausted my talents, and I'll help you manage the money in the future, I'm afraid there will be no gain. ”
In ancient times, there was a great filial son of Luo Danlun, and now there is a great filial son-in-law of Lan Fang.
Hearing that Gu Kun had to be so modest, Zhu Youdong stopped insisting, obediently accepted the money, and then asked about various things he had seen and heard in Xiangjiang.
Perhaps because he witnessed Xiangjiang withstand the sniping of the exchange rate and the stock market, and officially became the end of this wave of Southeast Asian financial crises that lasted for a year or two, Zhu Youdong, as a layman, inevitably had a fantasy of looking down on Xiangjiang's system and laws.
During the chat, Weng's son-in-law talked about how to spend the money earned in the future, and how to allocate the high-quality assets of the shipping real estate and financial industry from Xiangjiang to cooperate with the future industrial upgrading of the country.
Zhu Youdong always tested Gu Kun's opinion: "Do you think it would be better for us to have our own bank in the future, and other industries will also be upgraded, and we will copy some of the economic management regulations and criminal and civil laws of Xiangjiang?"
The world's major financial centers, except for Frankfurt, which applies civil law, all affairs rely on articles and regulations, and the rest seem to be in the French system. I also think now that the commercial law is a little tighter, and the criminal and civil laws are moderately Westernized, which seems to be good.
Although there will be great problems in other countries, our Lanzhou side now has a small population and few disputes, and the boat is small and easy to turn around, and it is time to get up quickly. In the future, if we really add foreign workers and tourists, and the permanent population exceeds one million, it will be troublesome to think about large-scale reforms. ”
Gu Kun was slightly startled, and hurriedly dissuaded: "Your Highness, you must not have such thoughts! I think our Lan Fang is used to using the Huaxia method, and it is not good to continue to keep it as usual? The reason why Xiangjiang won this time is also due to the support and support of the mainland, you must not have the illusion that it is how good Xiangjiang's own system is." I can see through that Xiangjiang can only prosper by relying on the mainland, and its own system of digging pits left by the colonizers actually plays a negative role. ”
Lan Fang's current laws, except for the economic and political fields, are mainly copied from Huaxia, because it is convenient to copy the same text and the same kind of work.
Taking the criminal law as an example, when the Lan side was founded in 84, it was possible to basically copy the law enacted in 79 years of China, except for Chapter 1 (on ideology and national security) and Chapter 3 (on economic crimes) of the sub-rules.
The first chapter certainly cannot be copied, because the ideology is different.
The third chapter cannot be copied, at least some of the articles cannot be copied, because there is a lot of public ownership in the economy of China, and there is almost no in the Lan side. Moreover, there are almost no judgments on "illegal operation" in Lanfang, and many special service industries and special entertainment industries are open and legal in Lanfang, as long as you pay taxes and obey the management according to the regulations.
The rest doesn't matter.
As for Huaxia, in fact, the sentence was revised in 97, which was the first major repair since 79. After the Lan Fang people copied it more than ten years ago, they are still discussing whether to continue copying, and everything is still inconclusive.
At this juncture, Gu Kun didn't want Zhu Youdong to make any misjudgment, he must dispel Zhu Youdong's institutional illusion because of Xiangjiang's victory.
"Your Highness, the history of the future will prove that the East is superior to the West even in the field of justice, and we must not do stupid things to enter the treasure mountain and return empty-handed. The so-called freedom of the media left by the current colonizers of the Xiangjiang people was completely caused by the chaos during the financial crisis.
Let's just say that Kong Shangzhong is that kind of crumb, and the whole family will end their sinful life, and this kind of scum should die silently. However, many foreign media in Hong Kong with ulterior motives like to play with rhythm.
As for what I tried to do later, I tried to cooperate with the authorities to suppress housing prices and squeeze the hot money from the property market into the stock market, but what happened to the result? A few high-leverage real estate speculation dogs, with inferior gambling products, refused to admit defeat in gambling, and another wave of jumping off buildings to the media to see, speculate and exert pressure. What is there to learn about the poison of this Breton dog? Your Highness, it is not easy for us to build a country, you must persevere, think about the courage when you fought against the Breton dog to the end more than ten years ago, and you must not lose your fighting spirit and vigilance when you are rich. ”
Zhu Youdong was surprised.
He didn't understand Gu Kun's three views.
In Zhu Youdong's view, the Chinese system does have many advantages, but those advantages are also the advantages that Germany and Japan have already imitated their predecessors. As for the system of justice and fairness, Zhu Youdong has always felt that the reputation of the Huaxia faction in the international community does not seem to be very good.
Especially in the financial media lawyer country of Oceania, which is known for its judiciary. Even if one day they say that they suspect that their economy and scientific research will not work, they will definitely not hear anyone criticize the laws of Oceania.
Gu Kun's words have to be said to be amazing.
"What should you interpret what the virtuous son-in-law said?" asked Corporal Zhu Youdong Lixian.
Gu Kun knew that Zhu Youdong was not an expert and couldn't talk too much, so he picked a point: "Let's just say the most simple truth, the Chinese people have a saying that says it best: all human rights, the most fundamental is the right to survival and the right to development." Survival is above what speech, media, publishing, and other fields of expression. It's not that speech isn't important, but that there is a hierarchy and priority for any legal interest. Speech should not be an obstacle to survival, and life should be more important than the two.
Going deeper, human beings do not have the right to dispose of their own lives, and suicide is a manifestation of the crime of intentional homicide in legal theory, which cannot be ambiguous. It can't be the same as the cloth dog and the ocean dog, leaving people with the operation space of 'suicide for profit and suicide to become famous'. Those pigs and dogs have fallen under the control of the financial media dogs of the Shining Gold Clan, and have put the right of public opinion above the right to life, which is just fattening the Shining Gold Clan's financial media lawyer class. ”
