Chapter 573: The Great Brazilian Family
……
"Explain to the Ministry of Information, and notify me as soon as the matter of Chevron Texaco is clarified. ”
"Yes!" Wang Jue nodded quickly.
"How's it going to do with what I told you three days ago?"
"It's been done according to the boss's instructions. ”
"He took it?"
"Hmm!" Wang Jue nodded and hesitated for a moment, "Boss, is the price too great?"
"It's just money, and you can earn it again if you spend it. But we can't afford to be careless with our connections in Brazil. In particular, Fernando Michel is also the Director General of Petrobras. He is so connected to many of our businesses in Brazil that it would be a shame to spend more money. ”
The level of corruption at all levels in Brazil is appalling. Take this time as an example, in order to stabilize the relationship with Fernando Michel, Guo Shouyun secretly smashed out nearly $5 million in real estate and cash.
And that's just him, and the rest of the large and small parliamentarians, judges, and the like, add up to nearly 10 million in total. This PR expenditure is huge, but it can't afford to spend it. Because, other energy giants are playing up and down, and if you don't do it, you won't have a chance next time.
Of course, although corruption in Brazil is very serious, and the collusion between politics and business is also well known, in order to avoid stepping on thunder in the future, Guo Shouyun has never personally touched this kind of thing.
"What time is it?"
"Forty-five minutes to six o'clock in the afternoon!"
"Matthew, clean up, we'll go out at six o'clock!" The words fell, looking at Wang Jue and Wu Xiaojing's inquiring eyes, Guo Shouyun smiled, "I'm going to attend the Marinho family's business dinner." ”
"Boss, didn't you refuse before?"
"I changed my mind. These Brazilian snake families still need to be visited. ”
In fact, Guo Shouyun's change of attention was not because of the Mariño family's status as Brazil's No. 1 giant. Instead, he stumbled upon a guest invitation that interested him in a few names. It just so happened that he had time tonight, so he simply ran it himself.
"By the way, the two of you will prepare a report on the current situation of Huaxia's oil industry and the development status of CNOOC this evening, and I will read it tomorrow. ”
"Yes!"
After the explanation, Guo Shouyun walked out of the house with Matthew.
……
Although Brazil is not a Western country, it inherited the Portuguese culture, and in the hundreds of years since its founding, it has also cultivated a large number of Western-style aristocracy. Among them, the fifteen families are the most famous, such as Marinho, Safra, De Moraes, Salles, and Camargo. As the head of the fifteen families, Mariño holds all the shares of Universal, the largest media group in South America.
The group's Globo Television Network, which accounts for about half of Brazil's broadcast and television market, generated sales of US$4.8 billion and profits of US$1.1 billion in 2002. Despite being Brazil's largest media company, Global Group has refused to go public and remains a family-owned business.
The family's three brothers, Illineu Roberto, João Roberto and José Roberto, have a combined net worth of $28.3 billion.
Although the matrix gap between Universal Group and Guo Shouyun is still huge. But in Brazil, it's already a formidable giant. Therefore, today, the commercial charity reception organized by the Marinho family has gathered almost all political and business celebrities in Brazil, especially in Rio de Janeiro.
Getulio Fellho, owner of Filho Films. Like most small film and television companies, he also took a lot of trouble to get the invitation to today's party. In order to expand my network, it would be great if I could work with the media trust 'Universal'.
So, after waiting for a long time, he finally saw his chance.
"Hello Mr. Roberto!"
Illineu Roberto didn't know the man in front of him, dressed in a black suit with a flattering smile on his face. However, in the business world for a long time, he has seen a lot of people who take the initiative to come up, and out of courtesy, he also held the hand that the other party took the initiative to reach.
"Hello!"
"Mr. Roberto, I have always had great admiration for Universal, especially this year when it has achieved amazing results under your leadership!"
Illineu Roberto smiled faintly and did not speak.
After seeing that the other party did not say anything, Getulio Fellio, who was short of time, gritted his teeth secretly, "Influenced by you, I also set up a film and television company, and I just filmed a TV series this year, and I hope to cooperate with your company and release it on the Global Television Network!"
"Universal will not turn down any film and television company that wants to work with us. As long as the quality of Mr. Fellho's TV series is passable, I think the people in the company will take the initiative to talk to you about ....... ”
As soon as Ilineu Roberto finished speaking, a middle-aged man in a black suit next to him hurried past the guests, walked to his side, and then quickly whispered a few words in his ear.
"Really?"
Illineu Roberto's voice suddenly became louder. Let the people around him, including Getulio Fellho, subconsciously turn their heads to look.
"Really, now the other party's car has entered the manor!"
The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly.
"Let's go!"
Illineu Roberto, who had been calm, had a touch of excitement and urgency on his face, and after handing over the middle-aged man, he strode through the living room and walked towards the door.
Seeing the host like this, the people in the banquet hall who noticed the movement here subconsciously turned their eyes away. After the disappearance of Illineu Roberto's back, there were more and more curious people, and the eyes on the door became more and more. Especially about the whole change of attitude of Illineu Roberto, Getulio Fellho, who observed it most clearly, was even more curious.
After a while, under the eyes of a group of people who watched from time to time, Illineu Roberto, who had gone out before, quickly walked back. But beside him, there was an extra young man in a dark blue suit, tall, handsome, with a faint smile on his face, but he did not lose his calm and mature temperament at all.
From the attentive and enthusiastic attitude of Illineu Roberto, and the relaxed demeanor of the young man, it is clear that this man is extraordinary.
"I didn't expect him to come too. ”
"Mr. Goulart knows?"
"Of course I do. This person is the famous Bruce Guo. Boss of Pacific Energy Group, Unocal, Apple, Phoenix Bank, Matrix, Kuok Business Group, Ruby, Google. ”
"He's Bruce Kwok?... Unexpectedly, as rumored, he was so young. ”
"The Marinho family's energy is really amazing, and they can actually invite him. ”……
Although Guo Shouyun still rarely participates in news interviews and business receptions, with the development of his various companies, his position in the industry has become more and more important, and he has been mentioned more and more often. Coupled with the interview and report of Time magazine some time ago, more and more people know him.
The faint discussion in the living room, and the growing attention of the eyes, excited Illineu Roberto. Being able to have a heavyweight guest is a huge benefit for him personally, as well as for the reputation of the Marinho family!
