Chapter 481: "The King's Daughter Doesn't Have to Worry About Marrying"
"Mr. Dudleywi, I think it would be more appropriate for you to ask the staff of our embassy in Kuwait, or in London, for this part. Of course, if your company intends to donate in the name of the Hong Kong branch, I think it should not be difficult," Fang Mingyuan replied bluntly.
Du Deliwei shrugged his shoulders and said: "Of course we have asked, but when they give us an answer, we need to consult the relevant departments in China, and then give us an answer after consultation." Fang, what kind of department is this department? Weishenme: We want to donate but no one collects it?"
Fang Mingyuan spread his hands helplessly, this "relevant department", let alone foreigners, is a Chinese, and not many people can figure out what kind of department this relevant department is.
Although it is said that people usually hear this phrase frequently in the media and in the speeches of leaders, such as the collapse of a building under construction and the "relevant departments" have been instructed to deal with it; the regulations on measures to control road congestion have been handed over to the "relevant departments" for deployment and implementation; and the "relevant departments" have been severely criticized for the damage to the interests of the masses by land requisition and forced demolition, and the "relevant departments" should bear unshirkable responsibility. In media reports, there are more: "learned from the relevant departments", "learned from the relevant departments", "the relevant departments are investigating and handling", ......
However, it is not for ordinary people to know which department this "relevant department" is.
In the previous life, some netizens even summed it up, the relevant department is an unfathomable department, it is like a ghost all the time around you, everyone is talking, but just haven't seen it; the relevant department is a selfless department, it is not self-interested, it specializes in benefiting people, and it has long played the spirit of selfless dedication in the society, it has given all the opportunities to be praised to other specific departments, as well as the leaders of specific departments, and once something bad happens, the relevant departments immediately stepped forward and took up the black cauldron. And sonorously and forcefully threw down the 16 major investigations to the end, strengthened supervision, learned lessons, and did not take an example, this is a selfless and fearless sentiment, a kind of spirit that is willing to put the basin on one's head in order to protect others
So the conclusion of netizens is that the relevant department is a great department, a pure department, a department that is detached from low-level interests, and at the same time it is also a department with a habit of carrying a black pot
But how can Fang Mingyuan explain these things to a foreigner? Fortunately, Du Deliwei did not dwell on this issue, which made Fang Mingyuan breathe a sigh of relief.
"Fang, Prince Abdullah told me that from now on, 25 percent of the crude oil produced in the Calafar oil field will be owned by you, and you can find a buyer for this crude oil?" Dudley quickly turned to the point. He came this time for the sake of those parts of the oil in Fang Mingyuan's hands. For them, the European and American oil companies that are deeply entrenched in Kuwait, they can't hide anything from them here, not to mention such a major event as Fang Mingyuan's acquisition of a quarter of a medium-sized oil field, and Prince Abdullah's previous secrecy is just to say, don't make this matter known to everyone and make it a public matter, otherwise, there will be no room for turnaround.
"Mr. Dudleywei, I just learned the news yesterday, do you think I can find a buyer so quickly?" Fang Mingyuan asked with a smile, "But I don't have anything to worry about, as long as Shijie's economy does not decline, it shouldn't be difficult to sell them." โ
"If Mr. Fang believes in my Fudy Petroleum Holding Company, our company is willing to sign a crude oil purchase contract with Mr. Fang to purchase all the oil ...... under your name" Du Deliwei was just halfway through his words, Fang Mingyuan shook his head, and Du Deliwei stopped in surprise.
"Mr. Dudleyway, I wonder if you're in a hurry. The news I just learned yesterday, I still don't have a concept of the Calafar oil field at all, isn't it a little too early for you to talk to me about this now?" Fang Mingyuan didn't want to reach an agreement with Du Deliwei in such a vague way. No one will think that there is a lot of crude oil. What's more, I believe that the results of my own refinery in China should come out these days, and when the time comes, it is not too late to make a decision on whether to reserve first, or reserve part of it, and sell part of it. Anyway, here in Kuwait, there is no shortage of oil storage tanks.
Du Deliwei opened his mouth and stammered for a long time, he didn't expect that Fang Mingyuan didn't even listen to Fudy Petroleum Holdings' offer, so he interrupted his words. But fortunately, Fang Mingyuan didn't refuse, which made him feel better.
Seeing Dudliwei's deflated appearance, Prince Haha, who was sitting on the side, laughed, Dudleywei's Fudy Petroleum Holding Company has always been the largest buyer of the Calafar oil field, and heard that a quarter of the shares of the Calafar oil field will fall into the hands of Fang Mingyuan, and the original oil purchase contract reached between Fudy Oil Holding Company and the Kuwaiti government will expire in three months, Fudy Petroleum Holding Company is worried that this part of the crude oil of the Qafar oil field will be sold to itself again, Dudley Wei was asked by the board of directors of Fudy Oil Holding Company to confirm this contract with Fang Mingyuanใ
However, Prince Abdullah believes that with Fang Mingyuan's character, he should not agree to renew the contract so easily. Now, facts speak louder than words, and Fang Mingyuan unsurprisingly rejected Dudley's request for a detailed discussion.
"Mr. Fang, as far as I know, your country still exports millions of tons of crude oil to other countries every year, so naturally it will not import oil. Moreover, your country does not allow private capital to enter the oil refining industry, and your share of oil will still be sold in the international market after all, and we Fudy Petroleum Holding Company are willing to cooperate stably at a favorable price to buy the oil in your hands. Dudleyway still doesn't give up.
"Mr. Dudley, it is true that my country does not import oil at the moment, and I do not have a refining industry myself, but you must not forget that our neighbors, whether they are Japan or South Korea, have a very strong demand for crude oil, and I think they don't mind buying some oil from me. Fang Mingyuan said in a good time, "Now the Shijie economy is still on the rise, and oil is the king's daughter who does not worry about marrying."
"The daughter of a good king is not worried about marrying," Prince Abdullah exclaimed, "Dudliwe, it's not so easy to persuade Fang, right?"
Dudley shook his head helplessly and said, "Your Royal Highness, even if you don't say a few good words for me, you don't have to watch my jokes on the sidelines, right?"
Prince Abdullah spread his hands and said, "I'm not looking at your jokes, but I'm talking about the facts, but those who have ideas will not be easily persuaded by you." If you want to convince him, you have to come up with something that will appeal to him. โ
"What makes him feel excited?
"For example, the shares of your Fudy Petroleum Holding Company, for example, your oil refining jishu, I think these things, Fang must be very interested"
Dudliwei's face changed color at that time, how could he decide these things as a foreign representative? Prince Abdullah's suggestion was not realistic at all, but he did not dare to reprimand Prince Abdullah to his face, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "Prince Abdullah, you are joking, how can I, a small representative, decide such an important matter." โ
"Then I'm helpless. Fang is my brother, you are my friend, who do you say I should turn to?" Prince Abdullah said slyly. Dudleyway sighed, Prince Abdullah's position has been revealed, this kind of thing, of course, is towards the brothers
"Your Royal Highness, there is one thing I would like to ask, there is a manor, or residence, in Kuwait that has always been called Kausser. Fang Mingyuan decided to change the topic.
"Huh?" said Prince Abdullah and Dudliwe, in unison.
Fang Mingyuan looked at the two of them who had changed color in surprise, and he didn't understand what was worth being so surprised by his question.
"Fang, Kausel Manor is the asset owned by Fudy Petroleum Holding Company in Kuwait" Prince Abdullah's answer surprised Fang Mingyuan, this matter is too coincidental.
"Mr. Fang, Kausel Manor is indeed an asset owned by our Fudy Petroleum Holding Company in Kuwait, how do you know?" said Dudleywi strangely.
"Your Royal Highness, apart from this manor of Fudy Petroleum Holding Company in Kuwait, there is no place with this name anymore?" Fang Mingyuan did not answer Dudliwe's question, but continued to ask Prince Abdullah.
Prince Abdullah frowned and pondered for a long time, then shook his head and said, "There are still places named after Kausel, but when it comes to manors or residences, there is only that one. Fang, it was a fairly old manor, and it existed before the founding of Kuwait. It was once the property of members of our Kuwaiti royal family, but only fifty years ago, it was transferred to Fudy Petroleum Holdings. Fudy Petroleum Holding has since used it as their headquarters in Kuwait."
"Mr. Dudleyway, I take the liberty of asking, can I go to this manor to have a look?" Fang Mingyuan turned his head to look at Dudleyway.
"Huh?" Dudley was stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly, "Of course, but it's in ruins now. โ
