Chapter 414: Windfall (2)
James pursed his lips and said: "Phew, big brother, our British politicians have no political vision at all, and they are behind the ass of the Yankees, and they have no chance at all, they are simply losing their power and humiliating the country, and the loss of our British Empire's colonies has a lot to do with the Yankees, and this American government is an extremely bastard politician!"
Yao Yi said with a smile: "Okay, don't complain, where is his bastard, let's hear it!"
Yao Yi knew very well in his heart that the US government was a hegemonic government, and during the Cold War, it was contained by the Soviet Union and slightly restrained, but after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the hegemonic behavior of the United States was fully exposed.
James said: "According to the legal procedures, the company is a limited liability company with limited liability, and the punishment of the United States has made the company and the major shareholders at most lose a share of the company's stock." However, because the company is insolvent and cannot pay the fines, let alone the cost of cleaning up the oil pollution, the US court has frozen the assets of those shareholders, changed the limited liability into unlimited liability, and let all shareholders clean up the oil pollution according to their shares.
Yao Yi said with a smile: "This is normal, who makes the old United States rich, the economic strength and military strength are the first in the world, no one can compare, Canada knows if it is his little follower, the eldest brother has spoken, the younger brother can not comply, besides, this matter has nothing to do with us, the United States bullies Canada, not us!"
James sighed and said, "It didn't have anything to do with us before, but now it does!"
Yao Yi said: "It has something to do with us, what's going on, what does it have to do with us!"
James said: "More than a dozen major shareholders of the giant oil and gas company are members of the Canadian parliament, and they are very influential in Canadian politics, they themselves are in trouble, so they came up with the idea of selling the two northern regions of Canada, so they talked to me about this matter intentionally or unintentionally, it turned out that I didn't care, I knew that the last time you talked about wanting to buy Greenland, I only mentioned this matter to you!"
Yao Yi said: "What do they mean, do you want me to help them carry this black cauldron!"
James said with a sad face: "That's right, they just want you to buy the full amount of Juneng Petroleum and Natural Gas Company, and turn the limited company into an unlimited liability company, and take full responsibility for this oil spill!"
Yao Yi smiled bitterly and said, "What if I don't buy this oil company!"
James said: "Then the possibility of us acquiring the two regions in northern Canada is almost zero!"
Yao Yi said, "His uncle, what kind of logic is this, how much does this whole cost cost!"
"The cost of fines and oil clean-up alone is estimated to be around $3 billion, while the total assets of Juneng Petroleum & Gas Company are $2 billion, plus the purchase of the two northern districts of Canada, the total amount should be $10 billion," James said.
Yao Yi said: "I'll do it, so much, they rob money!"
James said, "Well, I can talk about this now, and I have done my best, and then it will be up to you to decide!"
Yao Yi said: "How is the situation in Greenland?"
James said: "It's very miserable, it turns out that when I talked to the Danish royal family, everything was very good, and when I finished talking with Canada, the Danish royal family changed its mind!"
Yao Yi asked, "What is the situation, how can such a thing happen!"
James said: "The thing is clear, if we don't buy Canadian land, we will never be allowed to buy Greenland, and the shareholders of Juneng Oil & Gas Company have deep economic cooperation with the Danish royal family, they have a lot of economic interests, and now they are hugging together!"
Yao Yi asked: "Did the Danish royal family talk about the specific price when they talked for the first time?"
"No, they just said that they wouldn't stop it as long as the local people of Greenland agreed, but now they have made it clear that they won't stop it," James said.
Yao Yi said angrily: "Fuck, what rotten rules!"
James said: "Duke Yao, I think this matter will end here, the US government is a bastard, and the current condition is three billion US dollars, but if they know that you wholly own this oil company, I'm afraid they won't let you go easily, I suspect that there are some oil tycoons behind this US government, they covet the giant power in the Gulf of Mexico, Venezuela, The oil and gas fields in the Middle East and North Africa, they are not only going to bring down the giant power, swallow it up, and reduce one competitor, but also to hit the Canadian oil industry and further control the Canadian oil fields!"
Yao Yi said: "So that's the case, tell me about the general situation of this Juneng Petroleum and Natural Gas Company!"
James said: "This giant oil and gas company is mainly divided into two major regions, one is the domestic oil production and smelting in Canada, and the other is the exploration and production of offshore oil, and then shipped back to the country for smelting, and then exported to the United States."
Yao Yi asked, "How is their oil exploration technology?"
James said: "If you want to talk about this exploration technology, it can be said that their technology is first-class, not to mention anything else, let's say that the Gulf of Mexico, several major oil giants in the world have explored there, and come to the conclusion that there is no oil there, but the giant energy does not believe in this evil, and finally it is even more than the oil reserves off the coast of Alaska, the reserves are as high as 10 billion barrels, it can be said that those American oil giants are greedy, and it is not surprising that they are doing everything possible to complete the giant energy!"
Yao Yi asked again: "Exploration ability is one thing, how about their offshore drilling technology!"
James said: " Drilling oil on the ocean is a huge risk project, the average company does not dare at all, even the American oil giants are often oil spills, you look at the oil stains off the coast of Alaska, in general, the offshore drilling technology of the giant energy is the world's leading, especially the super offshore oil drilling platform they are building, which can drill oil in the ocean at a depth of 300 meters, it can be said that this technology makes those American oil giants envious, and those oil giants are watching the harvest of this super offshore oil drilling platform!”
Yao Yi pondered for a while, and then asked, "You said, if I buy Giant Energy, what tricks will those American oil tycoons make against me." ”
