Chapter 138: I Need Your Gratitude

Leng Lan suddenly wanted to lead a factory herself: "This silicon wafer factory is really important? The market prospect is really great, so how about I try it?" Su Dingyu and Gu Changfeng can both be in charge of a factory and a company, can't I Leng Lan?...... He just wants me to use my family's power to start this factory?...... This guy is so mysterious,......

When these three things were finished, Frankl hesitated, looking like he wanted to say something.

Jiang Xinwei said with a smile: "I have made so many requests to you, and you have readily agreed, there must be something to ask me, right?" Don't worry, Leng Lan is not a person with a lot of mouths, she will definitely not say anything after listening to it. ”

His words made Frankl's face redden, and Leng Lan was also surprised.

Leng Lan suddenly realized: No wonder this foreigner scolded him so much, he dared to be affectionate because he had something to ask him. I'll see what they say, see how capable this guy is, how can a foreigner beg him? How does a foreigner know that he has this ability?

Frankl smiled awkwardly, and then said impatiently, "Jiang, are you right?"

Leng Lan looked at the two of them blankly, wondering what this "quasi-not" meant.

Jiang Xinwei obviously saw the confusion in Leng Lan's heart, and asked Frankl, "Are you talking about the price of London crude oil futures?...... What is the current price of crude oil futures?"

A large part of what he asked was to explain to Leng Lan. Leng Lan was even more surprised when she heard his explanation: This guy still knows about the world's crude oil futures? A foreigner even asked him for advice?

The words had already been spoken, and Frankl was no longer hiding because Leng Lan was here, although he did not immediately name the specific price figures of the world's crude oil. But he still answered Jiang Xinwei's question: "Now the price of oil is close to the price at the beginning of 1981." ”

His reply was also very meaningful, and the purpose was to remind Jiang Xinwei from the side: The situation in the Middle East is so chaotic, how can the price of crude oil futures not exceed the price of 1981? Not to mention that the current situation is much more turbulent than it was then, and the demand for crude oil in various countries in the world is much greater now than it was nine years ago, and oil prices should rise.

Jiang Xinwei shook his head and said: "I can't say anything about this, I only know that this war provoked by Iraq will definitely subside soon, and the turmoil in the Middle East that many people think will not be able to move in the end." ”

Frankl sat up straight. He retorted: "How can it not be turbulent? Iraq is a powerful country in the Middle East, and it has been fighting Iran for so many years. His subordinates are all elite soldiers. Didn't the media in your country also say that if the United States attacks Iraq, it will definitely end up in the end, just as they did when they fought Vietnam. You don't doubt what your national media say, do you? Your country has defeated the Americans twice. At that time, your weapons were much worse than those of Iraq. ”

Although Leng Lan is a girl, she still often listens to the news when she grew up in a cadre family, and in her heart she also thinks or hopes that the United States will fall on her heels in Iraq. A poor and backward Vietnam, which has been in war for many years and has no time to live and rest, can defeat the United States, and it is not difficult for Iraq, which now has modern weapons, to defeat the United States, and even if it cannot be defeated, the United States will fall into the sea of Iraqis and finally have to slip back into ashes.

Don't you say the same thing on TV and in newspapers?

Jiang Xinwei ignored her inquiring gaze, and said to Frankl with a smile: "This can't be compared at all. You know when the United States was fighting Vietnam. How many countries support Vietnam? Moreover, China and the Soviet Union are two powerful powers. And now how many countries in Iraq support it? No!

Can a country that does not have the support of other countries confront the US-led NATO? As long as the United States really makes up its mind to fight, Iraq will soon be defeated. The situation in the Middle East will soon calm down, and the influence of the United States will further penetrate into the Middle East region. Think about it, if everyone knew that the United States would use this war to infiltrate the Middle East, would they think that the Middle East would be more chaotic or calmer than before?"

Frankl said in frustration: "People will definitely think that there will be calm down, and the American team will be like the police, just go in." A small Middle East should be able to control zhì well. ”

Jiang Xinwei smiled confidently: "Hehe, isn't that it?

The reason why he is so confident. It was because he had already known the result and knew that the price of crude oil would fall immediately, and now he was just looking for the reason.

As a matter of fact, what Jiang Xinwei said just now is not correct, and his judgment of the future situation in the Middle East can be said to be completely wrong: Although Iraq was quickly defeated, the situation in the Middle East has not been calmed down because the Americans have infiltrated into the Middle East, but on the contrary, the situation in the Middle East has become a mess because of the Americans' show of force. Ten years later, after the Second Gulf War, oil prices began to climb steadily, reaching a maximum of $140 a barrel!

Of course, this is a matter for the future, Jiang Xinwei will not tell the real situation now, in that case, it will prove that the other party's previous judgment is correct, and it will come to the conclusion that oil prices will rise further, isn't it bad?

The reason why he said the lie that "as soon as the United States enters the Middle East, there will be peace" to deceive the other side, is to convince Frankl of the fact that oil prices will fall immediately after rising in the last month or two, instead of giving him an analysis of the future trend of the situation in the Middle East.

It wasn't until soon that the price of oil did drop that Frankl realized that he was genuinely helping him. Only by convincing him that oil prices will fall, can his family's financial investment avoid the losses caused by the fluctuation of oil futures prices, and his father can avoid bankruptcy and jumping.

With this gratitude, Frankl will be able to help himself purchase some higher-end chips more intimately in the future.

Jiang Xinxu's purpose is in the past few months, not in the future. What the situation in the Middle East will be in the future, and what the future direction of oil futures prices will have nothing to do with Jiang Xinweimao, and if Frankl and his father cannot avoid bankruptcy in this crude oil price, the future will be even more meaningless.

Jiang Xinwei deliberately befriended Frankl because he knew that Italy was an industrially developed country with a high level of electronic technology, but it was not very valued by the United States, Britain and other big countries, and it was very possible to break through the embargo of Western countries. What's more important is that the electronics company owned by Frankl's Luches family was once in the limelight, and even now, it is a skinny camel bigger than a horse, and its power is definitely incomparable to Zeng Hetao.

Jiang Xinwei just hopes that he will take advantage of the plight of the Luches family business to gain their favor, and when they get benefits, he will also help him do something that Zeng Hetao can't do.

Jiang Xinwei's judgment did not completely dispel Frankl's concerns, and he was still skeptical.

However, he didn't ask any more questions, because he knew that Jiang Xinwei was not an immortal, and at most, he would express some of his opinions like this now. In the end, only God knows how the international crude oil price will go, and in the end, it will have to be decided and operated by his father.

Frankl didn't ask, and Jiang Xinwei naturally didn't continue to be a god.

The three of them began to eat their lunch in earnest. Because Frankl will return to China tomorrow, Jiang Xinwei said a few words to wish him a smooth journey.

Coming out of the Shuangzhou Hotel, Jiang Xinwei and Leng Lan also broke up: Leng Lan was going to the hospital to visit her good sister, while Jiang Xinwei went back to her unit.

When he took a long-distance bus back to his unit in the evening, Director Wei and Su Dingyu were not there, and the director of the factory office told him that they had gone to attend the farewell banquet held by the city government for Zeng Hetao.

Jiang Xinwei disagreed, and asked casually, "Mr. Zeng is also going back to the United States?"

The director of the factory office said: "No, but it's about the same. He first went to his hometown in northern Hebei Province, where he went to worship his ancestors, and then returned to China after visiting the people in his hometown. ”

Jiang Xinwei didn't ask again, but went to take a bath, yesterday I was tired for a day, and today I took a half-day car, I have to rest and rest, and do things well tomorrow.

He knew that the city attached great importance to Zeng Hetao, because everyone expected Zeng Hetao to invest five million dollars in Yiyang City. But what he didn't know was that the importance of this banquet was far greater than last time, not only several high-ranking officials in the city attended, invited Su Dingyu and other people who knew Zeng Hetao, and even notified the leaders of several major enterprises in Yiyang City to participate. Among them was a character he didn't expect - Gu Changfeng.

Although the enterprise in charge of Gu Changfeng -- the Post and Telecommunications Equipment Company -- was only a subordinate enterprise of the Municipal Telecommunications Bureau, for reasons that were well known to everyone, he still attended the banquet with Xu Dongkai, director of the Municipal Telecommunications Bureau.

Gu Changfeng was still in high spirits on the way to the banquet.

However, when he saw Su Dingyu at the banquet site, not only did he come, but the organizer also arranged his position at Zeng Hetao's table, sharing the table with the municipal party secretary, mayor and other leaders, but he was arranged at the table of enterprise leaders, although the business leaders at this table were higher than his level, but he thought that he had been greatly insulted, and he couldn't help but be angry, and hated this guy he looked down on more and more.

Because he has a long face since he came in, even if Xu Dongkai takes the initiative to chat with him, he doesn't talk much, let alone talk to other business leaders, so everyone stays away from him and invisibly isolates him.

Gu Changfeng didn't think about his own reasons, but thought that it was others who were tending to be inflammatory, especially when he saw Zeng Hetao talking and laughing with Su Dingyu, and the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor also talked to him from time to time, Gu Changfeng snorted coldly, and simply withdrew angrily.

Fortunately, this guy was placed in a seat far away from the chairman, and his withdrawal did not let Zeng Hetao and them notice, so it didn't cause much turmoil, only a few people who saw this scene shook their heads secretly, feeling that this Gu family disciple was nothing more than that.
