Chapter 0326 Serial Trap Man
Chapter 0326 Serial Set of Pit People
According to the pressure exerted on Gu Yu by domestic public opinion, it is hoped that Gu Yu can transfer all the shares of the oilfield to the domestic state-owned petrochemical enterprises at a low price, so that these petrochemical enterprises and the stakeholders behind them can obtain huge profits, but Gu Yu did not completely obey their wishes, he chose to auction the shares of the oilfield publicly, facing the world, and the highest price will win, so that Gu Yu can lose much less profits, and the profits that can be obtained by the companies auctioned to the oilfields will also be reduced a lot.
After seeing Gu Yu's press conference, the behind-the-scenes instigators who created public opinion in China hated Gu Yu so much, but there was no way to take Gu Yu at all. It's not that they haven't thought about using other means to force Gu Yu to submit, but there are too many people in the country who are staring at Gu Yu and creating some public opinion, and there is no problem, but once administrative means or something else are used, it is easy to cause a backlash from some people, and they will face to face, not to mention whether they can beat the other party, even if they win, they will kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 themselves, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Gu Yu's press conference not only caused an uproar in China, but also caused quite a stir in the world. Examples such as this of the public auction of oil fields with proven reserves are rare internationally.
There are two main types of oil field auctions in the world, one is to package and sell the plots suspected of having oil, as for whether the oil can be dug up, when it can be dug up, how much real oil reserves are, and whether the auctioneer can make money, it has nothing to do with the landlord. This was the case when Gu Yu bought this oil field.
There is also a kind of auction, which is to auction the known oil fields, these oil fields have proven reserves, and some even have ready-made oil wells, but the landlord or the country where the plot is located does not have the economic or technical strength to exploit the oil, at this time, they will choose to auction the oil field. The bidder needs to take out a large sum of money to auction the exploitation rights, and the extracted oil does not belong to the bidder, but needs to be handed over to the owner of the oil field, and the owner of the oil field pays the extractor a few dollars per barrel, that is to say, the bidder is a role for the owner of the oil field, and the majority of the money is still earned by the owner of the oil field.
Nowhere is this more common than in places like Iraq.
What Gu Yu is doing now is not in these two cases, but in the third case, that is, to package and sell the oil field, only collect money once, and then the oil field has nothing to do with him at all. In this case, if the bidders can unite to reduce the price together, and after bidding for the oil field, and then do a good job of cost control, there will still be a considerable profit in the end.
All of a sudden, the global petrochemical industry was surging, and oil developers were everywhere who were in tandem with each other and urgently negotiating, and even the domestic petrochemical giants also took action. They even launched various relationships, went to Gu Yu's side to probe the rumors, and said favors, hoping that Gu Yu could give them a thorough understanding in advance, so that they could get the greatest benefits.
Gu Yu quickly announced the time and conditions of the bidding. Half a month later, the condition is the secret bidding method, the auction process is not public, all bidders or units, only need to submit bids to Gu Yu, as long as the bidding price exceeds the bottom line delineated by Gu Yu, it has the qualifications to bid, and who can win the bid in the end, then uphold the principle of the highest bidder.
What is the specific bottom line, Gu Yu will announce it at the last deadline for receiving bids, and the winning bid price of the final winning bidder will also be announced when the information of the winning bidder is announced.
In addition, Gu Yu also emphasized that as long as cash, no equity replacement, it must be paid in a lump sum, and installment payments are not accepted. At the same time, several oil developers are allowed to bid jointly, and it has nothing to do with how much each of them contributes and how much shares they ultimately share.
After Gu Yu's series of measures were announced, those oil developers who were interested in bidding for the Guyu oil field were busy, and the first thing they did was to send someone to negotiate with Gu Yu, hoping that Gu Yu would allow them to go to Gu Yu's oil field for detailed exploration, so as to determine the value of the oil field, so as to determine whether it was worth their auction.
Of course, Gu Yu had to meet this requirement. If he shirks the blame in this matter, it will seem that he has a ghost in his heart, and it will make the guy who really wants to set up a situation vigilant, if he retreats in the face of difficulties, Gu Yu will be tossed in vain. In addition, Gu Yu is also quite relieved of today's technical means, the oil exploration company he invited some time ago can basically represent the highest level of technology today, even they have not been able to discover the oil field, and the possibility that other oil developers can find it can be said to be very small.
Gu Yu expected that even if someone found out by luck, he would not share this discovery with others, no one is a fool, everyone is an oil developer, and they are competitors to each other. After all, one less is one less competitor.
Gu Yu's release, hundreds of oil developers sent people to investigate, Gu Yu's focus on Thomson Oil Company has not appeared, but Gu Yu is not in a hurry, he believes that Thomson Oil Company must have secretly sent people over to investigate. And Gu Yu firmly believes that the final winner will be Thomson Petroleum Company.
The reason why Gu Yu has such a judgment is based on firm theoretical inference.
Judging from the results of the so-called oil exploration, Gu Yu's oil field and Thomson's oil field are one, and Thomson Oil Company didn't want to share this oil field with anyone. Now that Gu Yu is leaving, if another oil developer comes over, it means that Thomson Oil Company will have to share the oil field with others, which is something they must not accept, and in this case, it is better to spend money to buy Gu Yu's oil field, so as to eliminate the possibility of sharing it with others.
In addition, in terms of development costs, if other oil developers auction off this oil field and develop it, all the infrastructure and equipment need to be built from scratch, and the upfront investment is huge, but Thomson Petroleum Company is different, they have on-site infrastructure and equipment here, and the investment in this piece can be completely saved. This gives them an advantage over others.
Based on the above two points, Gu Yu is 100% sure that the final bidder for his own oil field must be Thomson Petroleum Company. This is also the big boss of Gu Yu's pit this time.
Half a month flies, during this time, Gu Yu doesn't know how many calls he answered, how many people greeted him, and how many people sent him banquets, domestic and foreign, countless.
Fortunately, Gu Yu survived in the face of this surging flow of people, and he doubted that if he planned for a longer time, he would be able to persevere.
On this day, Gu Yu opened the door and began to accept bids from various oil developers. Bids flew like snowflakes, one, two...... Ten letters, hundreds of letters, and finally broke through a thousand seals, which made Gu Yu amazed, without personal experience, he couldn't imagine that there were so many oil developers in this world, it seems that he still underestimated the potential of the petrochemical industry.
After the bidding deadline arrived, Gu Yu stopped accepting bids, and at the same time announced the bidding bottom line he set, which was very simple, that is, the bid price could not be less than 80 billion US dollars. This price can definitely be regarded as a conscience price, after all, the results calculated by the vast majority of people, if Gu Yu does not buy the oil field, on the premise of not counting the inflation factor, he can make a profit of at least 150 billion US dollars, compared with 80 billion US dollars, it is basically equivalent to halving.
It can be seen from this that Gu Yu has endured much pressure from public opinion in China, so he did not hesitate to sell oil assets at half value. Of course, the final transaction price will definitely be more than 80 billion US dollars, and it will definitely be much higher than this price, but this has nothing to do with Gu Yu.
No one knows that the $80 billion given by Gu Yu is actually the result of his strict accounting, and the oil reserves of this small oil field he is exploiting now are about 2.5 billion barrels. It is equivalent to Gu Yu not spending a penny, so he recovered all the money he could make from exploiting this oil field in advance. This is naturally a pretty good deal for him.
Of course, to say this is not to count the big oil field in the corner of the oil field. If you count the big oil field, the bottom line of $80 billion naturally seems a bit low. However, it depends on that point of view, Gu Yu has also taken some special measures to prevent it in advance, one of which is the first oil well he chose to drill, which is very close to the corners of the big oil field.
It is equivalent to saying that this position goes to the corner of the large oil field, that is, the distance of more than 500 meters, and to the other direction, there is a distance of several kilometers.
That's what goes dark under the lights. It is also Gu Yu's deliberate hand, of course, if the other party has to dig into the corners, it will be nothing for Gu Yu. If Thomson Petroleum Company finally wins the bid, it is equivalent to spending a lot of money to buy the oil fields that could have been continuously exploited without spending a penny, and it can be said that the money they spent was unjustly wasted. If it weren't for the successful bidding of Thomson Oil Company, then they would be able to dig a well here, and it would be regarded as spending a lot of money to bid for the oil field for them, and they would get a compensation, so that they would not lose their money.
After all the bids were received, Gu Yu, Xu Xiaoqing, Gu Changsong, Ye Rou and others began to dismantle the bids and select the final winning bidder. More than eighty percent of them were invalid bids, and their bids were either too low, or they proposed a similar way to installment payments, and they were directly passed by Gu Yu.
Among the four people, Gu Yu is the calmest one, in his private space, there are more than 2,000 tons of gold piled up, even if each bidder's offer exceeds 100 billion US dollars, he is as calm as water. The other three were agitated and extremely excited.
Gu Changsong was forced to bankrupt by more than 3 billion Huaxia coins before, and even almost died of a heart attack, and now the ones he sees are all tens of billions of dollars of sky-high prices, and even hundreds of billions of dollars are eliminated because they are not in accordance with the rules, which is something that he couldn't think of before.
Xu Xiaoqing was praised by the media as a genius in the business world before, and after she joined Gu Yu Beyond Technology, she also proved her ability again and again. She once imagined that with her assistance, Gu Yu's assets would one day reach one billion dollars, tens of billions of dollars, or even hundreds of billions of dollars, but she found that Gu Yu's ability to make money far exceeded her imagination, especially this time, she was able to earn more than 100 billion dollars of money all at once, according to her original idea, Gu Yu would have to reach this order of magnitude at least when he was seventy or eighty years old, not now.
Ye Rou's thoughts are much purer, she is simply happy for Gu Yu, and she also thinks that Gu Yu is too powerful to find a second one in the world.
After nearly 20 hours of tireless work by four people, the final winning bidder was finally found, and judging by the bid, it was a consortium of oil developers who joined together to bid $156 billion.
This price is not the highest among all the bids, but compared with several other bids that are higher than it, it promises to put the winning bid amount into Gu Yu's account within 24 hours of Gu Yu announcing the winning bid, and the other bids either require installment payment, or plan to offset part of the funds by equity replacement, and some even say that after the oil is extracted and sold, the payment will be given to Gu Yu.
Gu Yu only wants to get out of this vortex as soon as possible, but he is not willing to wait too long, it is good to get the money one minute earlier. Of course, there is another reason that prompted Gu Yu to make this choice, that is, he used an intermediate information processor to check several oil developers on this bid, and found that these oil developers are actually leather bag companies registered by several shareholders of Thomson Oil Company under pseudonyms or other means, and this bid is equivalent to the bidding of Thomson Oil Company.
Gu Yu immediately announced the winning bidder, and then notified the representative of the winning bidder to negotiate a contract for the sale and purchase of oil shares. Of course, at this time, it is necessary to notify the JND government, another major shareholder of the oilfield.
John was again present at the negotiation site as a representative of the JND federal government. Under his witness, Gu Yu and the other party signed the contract very smoothly. Subsequently, Gu Yu's account added a huge amount of income, as high as 156 billion US dollars. This money must be taxed, but even if it is paid again, Gu Yu will get a large amount, compared with the less than one billion dollars he invested in this oil field, it is simply = double the profit.
After the contract was signed and the money was obtained, Gu Yu left the oil field. At this time, Thomson Petroleum Company officially surfaced, and Thomson officially applied to the JND federal government on behalf of Thomson Petroleum Company, intending to buy all the oil fields they had discovered. In the past, no one noticed the value of this oil field, and they could secretly extract oil without spending a penny, but now that Gu Yu is making such a fuss, too many people are eyeing this side, if they still want to secretly take advantage of the idea like before, it is to take others for fools. Only by buying all the oil fields and controlling all the oil reserves in this oil field can they protect their interests.
Then, when the Thomson Oil Company submitted the application, it was found that the area around the oil field that Gu Yu had originally bought had been bought long before them, and someone had spent three billion US dollars to buy the three times the size of the Gu Yu oil field, and the oil exploration company that Gu Yu had invited to explore the oil had also spent one billion US dollars to buy a piece of land, so that there was nothing left for the Thomson Oil Company. And this part of what remains is where Thomson Petroleum explorers determined that there was no oil, and if you spend money to buy it, you will simply lose money.
Thomson Oil Company was angry, and they spent a lot of money and bribed the representatives of the local government, only to learn that the one who spent three billion dollars to buy the oil field was a businessman from country E, named Alexander, who almost bought the oil field with Gu Yu. It hasn't been there since the oil field was bought, but in a legal sense, Alexander is the rightful owner of the land, and no one, including the JND government, has the right to drill oil wells on it.
After hearing the news, a mouthful of old blood spurted out of Tomson's anger. It was not easy to send Gu Yu, the plague god, away, how could he open another one that was even more ruthless than Gu Yu. Three times the size of the land, occupying a considerable part of the great oil field, if Alexander hired people to exploit the oil fields there, wouldn't Thomson Oil Company have to share the oil reserves?
Do you have to spend another $365 billion to buy the oil field in Alexander's hands? If you kill them, it is impossible to make up the money in a short period of time, not to mention, that Alexander is very mysterious, and even the local government does not have a lot of contact information in the hands of the local government, and even if he makes up the money, he will not be able to contact him.
