Although the theme of this banquet is to celebrate the move of Xu Cun's family into Shek O Manor. www.biquge.info But in fact, this is a relatively high-end meeting, and this is still a relatively successful meeting -- in this meeting, dozens of investment cooperation intentions were reached on the spot, and this is the result of Li Hao's careful selection, otherwise the results must be greater.

Later in the banquet, the more important guests either left early or moved to the guest building.

After the more romantic George W. Bush and Pierre Laliberte, chairman of the board of directors of the Royal Bank of Canada, finished dancing with Gao Lihong and Li Meixi, Xu Cun personally sent George W. Bush and Pierre Lalibert to the guest building.

At this point, for Xu Cun, this banquet is over.

As for those guests who haven't left yet, there is no need for Xu Cun to worry about it personally, someone will naturally arrange them.

……

Xu Cun, George W. Bush, and Pierre Lalibert on their way to the guest building.

Xu Cun asked George W. Bush and Pierre Lalibert: "How is it, Georges, Pierre, my friend, are you having a good time?"

Pierre Lalibert smacked his lips and said, "It's okay, it's that Miss Li Meishu who won't give me her phone number, which makes me very distressed, Xu, my friend, I think you should be able to help me!"

Xu Cun shook his head and said, "I can only help you get her phone number, and I can't help the rest." ”

Pierre Lalibert confidently said: "That's enough, I think with my charm I will be able to charm her." ”

Glancing at the short and fat Pierre Laliberte, Xu Cun secretly shook his head - Xu Cun really couldn't figure it out, where did Pierre Laliberte get so much confidence?

Xu Cun asked George W. Bush again: "George, my friend, do you need my help?"

Bush Jr. said very gentlemanly: "Miss Gao said that she has a boyfriend, and she also said that she loves her boyfriend very much, and I am afraid that Miss Gao and I are fated to have nothing to do." ”

Xu Cun smiled: "You're really unlucky, George, it seems that you can't have an unforgettable trip to Xiangjiang like Pierre." ”

Pierre Lalibert shook his head and said, "Hey, my friend, you don't need to remind me that I owe you a favor, in fact, I want to repay you." ”

Pierre Laliberte would not repay Xu Cun for such a small matter as Xu Cun asking him a phone number, and Xu Cun did not believe that Pierre Laliberte would repay him for this trivial matter, Xu Cun knew that this was just an excuse for Pierre Laliberte to say what he wanted to say. Therefore, Xu Cun cooperated with Pierre Lalibert and said, "How are you going to repay me, my friend?"

Pierre Lalibert asked Xu Cun, "Xu, have you heard of Husky Energy?"

Xu Cun really didn't know anything about oil companies.

But it doesn't matter, because Xu Cun knows that Bush, who holds many positions as an oil speaker, must know.

Xu Cun looked at George W. Bush and asked, "George, do you know Husky Energy?"

Bush Jr. said: "Husky Energy is a relatively large oil company in Canada, with more than 5,000 oil and gas production wells exploited by the company, of which about 40% are exploited by the company, in addition to holding 26.67% of the equity of heavy oil refineries and 343 gasoline stations. ”

When Bush Jr. stopped talking, Pierre Lalibert said: "We have a large amount of oil reserves in Canada, and the political environment is very stable.

Xu Cun glanced at George W. Bush, as if asking, "Can this deal be done?"

George W. Bush glanced at Pierre Lalibert and said, "Remember to pay my consulting fee to my account, and my consulting fee was $50,000 a quarter of an hour." ”

Xu Cun shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "Okay, you miser!"

George W. Bush retorted: "I think it won't be long before you know how well you're getting the money." ”

"Well, let's get down to business, if you buy Husky Energy, you have to be prepared for long-term losses, after two oil crises, except for our United States because of the relationship with the Middle East is not very good, oil stocks are in the doldrums around the world, and this downturn may continue for a long time.

So, from a money-making point of view, I wouldn't recommend buying Husky Energy, because the payback period for this investment is going to be quite long, and it will tie up a lot of your capital.

In addition, Canada's business law stipulates that foreigners cannot buy financially sound energy companies – Husky Energy shows no debt. So, if you want to buy Husky Energy, you have to find someone you can trust to become Canadian citizens.

Of course, that's not to say you can't buy Husky Energy, and the oil industry is still very promising in the long run.

And ......"

Moreover, Bush Jr. did not say the latter words, but Xu Cun understood what Bush Jr. wanted to say: "Moreover, you own a lot of shares in oil companies such as Spectrum7 and Harkenenergy, and buying Husky Energy can form an oil and natural gas network." ”

Seeing that Bush Jr. stopped talking after saying "and", Pierre Lalibert said: "Xu, my friend, it's up to you whether you buy Husky Energy or not, but I have to tell you bad news, the guys at the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce are lobbying the guy named Li Jiacheng on the table just now to buy Husky Energy." ”

As soon as he heard Pierre Lalibert say this, Xu Cun immediately remembered, what is Husky Energy? It is: In the last life, Li Ka-shing made the greatest investment in his life.

Knowing what Husky Energy is, Xu Cun quietly asked Pierre Lalibert: "How much does it cost to buy Husky Energy?"

As soon as Xu Cun asked about the price of Husky Energy, Pierre Lalibert knew that Xu Cun was tempted. So, Pierre Laliberte laughs: "Nova wants to sell half of Husky Energy, and they are offering a price of $500 million. ”

Xu Cun asked Pierre Lalibert: "Nova Group is not ready to sell the whole Husky Energy?"

Pierre Lalibert shrugged and said, "Yes, even though Husky Energy has been losing money for three quarters, Bob's group of guys are still a little reluctant to sell the entire Husky Energy. ”

If you buy a foreign company and can't obtain the absolute right to operate that foreign company, you will definitely be controlled by local personnel, and Xu Cun, who hates this kind of constraint, said directly: "Pierre, my friend, you go and tell those guys in the Nova Group that it's okay for me to buy Husky Energy, but I want the entire Husky Energy, not half of the shares, as for the price, it's easy to say." ”

At the same time, Li Ka-shing, who had just arrived at home, took the phone and bargained with Bob Blair of Nova Group: "Mr. Blair, I think the acquisition of 60% of Husky Energy's shares by HK$2.5 billion is a very fair deal......
