Jiang Xinwei was amused when he heard this young prince say such a thing, maybe he was still young, maybe he had just ascended to the throne, and he didn't have too deep a city government, so that he blurted out this kind of thing that should not be said by a high-ranking official.

He said: "How is it possible? I am an entrepreneur, how dare I do such a thing, let alone your country has good relations with our country." For me, making a profit for the business is my highest goal. ”

Sayyafman obviously knew that he was a bit out of shape, so he smiled and said, "Then what can you do? I believe that if I buy your mobile phones, you will definitely make a lot of money." ”

Jiang Xinxu replied: "Your Excellency Prince, if I say that I don't want Your Excellency to pay for this batch of limited-edition luxury mobile phones now, at least I don't want you to buy them with cash, do you believe it?"

Sayevman was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't believe it. Didn't you just say that your highest goal is to make a profit for your Flycom technology company?"

Jiang Xinxu said: "But I hope to deepen our friendship while making profits. ”

Sayevman nodded and said, "Jiang, what exactly do you want to say?"

Jiang Xinxu said: "I hope we cooperate. ”

Sayevman said: "Cooperation? Of course I want to cooperate, but how can we cooperate? Aren't we already cooperating in the procurement of your communication equipment? It doesn't mean that you want me to help you sell your mobile phone?"

Jiang Xinwei smiled: "How is it possible? I don't have the courage to hire Your Excellency as a salesman for our company, we can't afford such a high salary." I mean, we can do other collaborations. Like what. You buy our phones, we buy your crude oil. I know that your country is very rich in oil resources, and the quality of oil is good. ”

It is a well-known fact that Saudi Arabia has a large amount of oil storage underground. Sayevman smiled and asked, "This is no problem, as long as the price you offer is the same as the market price, we can sell it to you." However, your Feixun Technology Company is engaged in telecommunications equipment, do you have a crude oil trade license? Does your country allow you to trade crude oil?"

Jiang Xinxu said: "As long as your government agrees to sell to us, we have a way to trade, if our government does not allow it." We can sell the crude oil we buy from your country to other countries, such as Japan or something, and they will definitely be willing to buy it. ”

Sayevman laughed: "They can buy directly from our country. Why should they go through your hands to buy it, unless they are stupid, how can they be willing to pay you a little more?"

Jiang Xinxu smiled and said, "So I want to make a bet with Your Excellency." ”

Sayyafman's eyes lit up. He asked, "Bet? How do you bet?"

Jiang Xinxu said: "Bet that crude oil prices will rise in the future. It's like when I go to the London Crude Oil Futures Market to buy crude oil futures. I would like to buy a share of future crude oil from His Excellency the Prince. …… What price do you expect the price of crude oil to reach in the next few years?"

A hint of vigilance flashed on Sayevman's face, and he did not answer Jiang Xinwei, but stared at Jiang Xinwei with his eyes.

Because Saudi Arabia has very large crude oil reserves and is the initiator and leader of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries - OPEC, it can be said that Saudi Arabia's every move affects the price of crude oil. In Sayevman's view, Jiang Xinwei's move was to get inside information. It is to get the news from Sayyafman and then go to the London crude oil futures market to speculate on futures to make a profit. Of course, Sayevman can't be so stupid to hand over the news to Jiang Xinwei, this has to be leaked. Not only will he Sayyafman not be able to eat and walk around, but even the Saudi government will be in trouble.

Jiang Xinxu saw it and said, "Your Excellency Prince, you have misunderstood. I just want to sign a long-term contract with you at a price higher than the current price of crude oil, and whether I win or lose in the future depends on my luck, that is, whether I can make money or not. ”

Sayevman sighed, still in disbelief: "At what price are you willing to sign a long-term contract, and how much?"

Jiang Xinwei said: "The price of oil has been hovering below $15 for a long time, and I would like to sign a 10-year purchase contract with you at a price of $18 a barrel. ”

Sayalman blurted out, "Are you sure?"

This price is a very attractive price, you must know that the price of crude oil rarely exceeds 15 US dollars, and now the world economy is not in a recession, crude oil prices not only do not have any hope of rising, but after the United States sent troops to the Middle East, the world situation has further stabilized, the United States' influence on the Middle East has increased, OPEC has been influenced by the United States to a certain extent, and the possibility of using oil production to influence world oil prices is getting smaller and smaller, which further increases the expectation of crude oil price reductions.

If Jiang Xinwei can sign a long-term contract of 18 US dollars now, it will undoubtedly be beneficial to Saudi Arabia. However, Sayevman can't fully trust Jiang Xinwei, he doesn't know how much he needs, if the amount is too small, this matter is naturally meaningless, but if the amount is too large, oil prices are likely to rise because of this, and he may be criticized.

Jiang Xinwei nodded and said, "100 million barrels a year." ”

100 million barrels may be an astronomical amount for others, but it is not a big deal for Sayyafman, Saudi Arabia produces 400 to 500 million tons of crude oil a year, which is equivalent to more than 3 billion barrels, and the figure of 100 million barrels to Jiang Xinwei is exactly what he wants: he sold his crude oil at a high price of 18 US dollars, and it will not have any impact on the world crude oil price.

Still, he asked uncertainly, "Do you conclude that the price of crude oil will really rise above eighteen dollars?"

Jiang Xinwei smiled: "I said it at the beginning, I am gambling." Your Excellency should also know that I am not short of money now, only a passion, if I can gamble, although the money is not much, but it is enough to be excited. Even if I lose, I won't lose much. Isn't it just a few hundred million dollars a year? It's a big deal to produce more telecommunications equipment. …… , Your Excellency the Prince, do you dare to bet?"

Sayevman sneered inwardly: "Grass! In front of me, you actually said that you have money, there is no shortage of money, and your money is one-third of mine? You are just a nouveau riche who has only made a fortune in recent years, and I am still afraid of you?

If it had been before, Sayevman would have gambled without even thinking about it. It's just that now that he has become the deputy prime minister, many things can't be done as he wants, and it's better to win the bet, but the royal family will not praise too much, at most they will laugh, but in case the bet is lost, the royal family members still don't say that they are immature?

After thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "I don't lack money, but I can't gamble." The reason can also be said: I am not short of money. I don't want to gamble to make that money. ”

But when he saw Jiang Xinwei looking like he didn't dare to gamble, Sayevman couldn't help but say again: "Unless you agree to a better gambling method that can be put on the table." ”

Jiang Xinwei said disapprenously: "You say." ”

"The price of crude oil is based on $18," Sayevman said. However, if the world price of crude oil is less than 18 dollars, you buy 100 million barrels of crude oil at the actual price, and the difference between them is filled with your company's telecommunications equipment, but the price of your telecommunications equipment is reduced by a percentage of the difference in the price of crude oil. ”

Jiang Xinwei looked at the other party in surprise, this gambling method is much better than the gambling method proposed by Jiang Xinxu. For example, in the future, when the international price of crude oil is only $9 per barrel (only half of the agreed price), Jiang Xinwei will have to buy 100 million barrels of crude oil from Sayyafman with $900 million, and Jiang Xinwei will have to fill the remaining $900 million difference with telecommunications equipment produced by his own company, and the price of telecommunications equipment must be reduced by 50 percent on the basis of the market price. However, Jiang Xinwei lost not only $900 million, but also an additional 50 percent of the equipment.

The other party sneered: "Do you dare?"

Jiang Xinwei did not answer directly, but said: "But what if the international crude oil price at that time exceeds the agreed price?"

Sayevman said: "I will fill as much crude oil as I exceed! The price of crude oil will be reduced by a percentage above the agreed price." ”

When Jiang Xinwei heard this, his heart was like a raging fire: This is not a big profit?!

For example, in the future, when the international crude oil price reaches $27 a barrel (more than 50 percent of the agreed price), Jiang Xinwei will take out $2.7 billion and hand it over to Sayyafman, and he will have to pay the price of 100 million barrels of crude oil (the price is calculated at $18), and the remaining $900 million will still be paid by Sayyafman, and the price of this batch of crude oil will be reduced by 50 percent (that is, $13.5 a barrel) on the basis of the international crude oil price of $27 and delivered to Jiang Xinwei.

However, Jiang Xinxu found that there was a huge risk in doing so, and it was likely to cause the Saudis to break the treaty. Because he knows that the price of oil in the future will be far more than $27 and will reach $100 a barrel in less than 10 years, so how much crude oil should he Saevman accompany! More than $100 a barrel is equivalent to 600 percent of the price of $18 a barrel, so how can 600 percent drop it? Sayyafman will not be enough to give away hundreds of millions of barrels of crude oil for nothing, and no matter how much Saudi Arabia has crude oil, it will not be possible to be so generous.

It's better not to get it than not to get it.

He thought for a moment and said, "Your Excellency, I can't afford to make such a big bet, can we agree on a maximum price reduction ratio, and agree on 50 percent for each of us? For example, if the price of oil is reduced to less than 50 percent of the eighteen dollars, the price of our telecommunications equipment will be calculated at 50 percent." Similarly, if the price of oil exceeds 50 percent in the future, the maximum price reduction will be calculated at a maximum of 50 percent?"

Sayyaf Man laughed and said, "What's the matter? Aren't you really trying to gamble just now?"
