Chapter 497: The Oil Project Really Sets Sail

Royal Dutch Shell wants to cooperate with Phoenix Group, of course Lu Shaohua will not object, not only will not object, but also welcome, but the plan they proposed is all-round cooperation, Lu Shaohua can not accept it, but this does not mean that the two companies can not cooperate, in other places can still cooperate, such as agents.

Yes, it's an agent, it's not the Royal Dutch Shell that acts as an agent for the Phoenix Group, but the Phoenix Group as the agent for the Royal Dutch Shell.

What do you represent?

Royal Dutch Shell is engaged in the oil industry, and the things that act as agents for their companies are of course related to oil, but Lu Shaohua doesn't want to act as an agent, he only wants to act as an agent for three things, natural gas, gasoline, and diesel.

Natural gas, gasoline, and diesel are all extracted from crude oil, and they are part of the oil, and Lu Shaohua wants to act as an agent for these three petroleum products in order to open the embarrassing situation of Phoenix Petroleum and get rid of the name of a shell company.

Of course, it does not mean that the Phoenix Group is willing to act as an agent, and Royal Dutch Shell must be willing, and it still needs to be negotiated and discussed there before it can be decided. No, Lu Shaohua was not worried at all that the other party would refuse.

The reason is very simple, the current Royal Dutch Shell has not yet entered Asia, Asia is also a big market, they dream of getting into the Asian market, but they are not familiar with the place, how can it be so easy to get involved.

There is a more important reason, Royal Dutch Shell is now ranked 49th in the world, the second from the bottom, which is a result they have achieved after years of hard work, and they cherish this achievement.

However, ranking 49th is an embarrassing and dangerous ranking, maybe they will be squeezed out of the top 50 next year, they must work hard to keep this position this year, and let Phoenix Group act as an agent in Asia, their business will definitely skyrocket, the company will also develop, and there will be development to keep the ranking.

Keeping the ranking is a conservative estimate, with the current scale of the Phoenix Group and its influence in the world and Asia, it will definitely give them the excellent results of the Royal Dutch Shell Company, and the final result may not fall but rise, and it is not necessary to rise a few places.

Another important thing is that Phoenix Group has an excellent reputation in the international market, ranking 37th, and cooperating with such a company, Royal Dutch Shell's reputation will also rise, and it will better establish its own brand.

More importantly, Lu Shaohua also gave them certain benefits, this benefit is that the lubricants used by Phoenix Motors are all purchased from their Royal Dutch Shell Company, which is a large amount of business, and at the same time, it is also disguised to promote the lubricating oil of their Royal Dutch Shell Company.

Lu Shaohua couldn't think of a reason for the other party to refuse, but after all, they were a joint-stock company, not Philip? If the president of Watts can make a decision, he must return to the company's headquarters to hold a shareholders' meeting, and the vote can only be approved to agree to Lu Shaohua.

Lu Shaohua also knows Philip? Watts did not force him on this dilemma, and gave him enough time to go back to the company to hold a shareholders' meeting and then come over to discuss cooperation between the two sides.

Philip? Watts only stayed in Hong Kong for two days, and on the third day, he boarded a flight to England and hurried back to hold a shareholders' meeting to discuss Lu Shaohua's proposal.

And what about Lu Shaohua's side? He also hopes to cooperate with Royal Dutch Shell, because once the two companies cooperate, it means that Phoenix Group has officially entered the oil field, and more importantly, Phoenix Group can avoid many detours.

The strength of the Phoenix Group is strong, but that means that on the whole, not all are strong, such as the field of oil, the Phoenix Group has just entered, it is a newcomer, if there is no Phoenix Group, the road ahead will be very difficult.

Although the cooperation with Royal Dutch Shell cannot make Phoenix Oil climb to the sky in one step, it is almost the same, it can bypass many bends, go directly to the center, and get on the right track, and more importantly, Phoenix Oil can get rid of the situation of only investing and no return, and directly start to make profits.

Both sides are profitable, Royal Dutch Shell can smoothly enter the Asian market, commission performance, maintain or rise to the world rankings, and Phoenix Group can use cooperation to get involved in the oil field, on the right track, get rid of the situation of only investment but no return, it can be described as a win-win situation for both sides.

Of course, it's too early to say this, after all, the cooperation plan has not been finalized, and we still have to wait for Philip? Watts' message was confirmed.

However, Lu Shaohua is very confident that he can cooperate, recruit relevant talents with great fanfare, and begin to build the team of Phoenix Oil, making a picture of Royal Dutch Shell not cooperating with Phoenix Group, Phoenix Group will do it itself.

In fact, this is also the case, Lu Shaohua's plan is also like this, if Royal Dutch Shell does not cooperate with Phoenix Group, Lu Shaohua will let the Tiger Roar base in Africa refine some crude oil to operate it himself.

In fact, at the beginning of the establishment of Phoenix Oil, Lu Shaohua also planned to do so, but the Royal Dutch Shell Company was inserted, and Lu Shaohua saw a trace of the foundation that could quickly lay the foundation of Phoenix Oil, so he personally came forward to meet Philip? Watts, talk to him about cooperation.

Who doesn't want to take fewer detours, and who doesn't want to make a profit from the start?

Lu Shaohua just wants Phoenix Oil to take fewer detours, so that Phoenix Oil can win without investment from the beginning. This is the basis for Lu Shaohuayang's cooperation with Royal Dutch Shell, as for the future, Lu Shaohua has not thought about it, but one thing is certain, it is a matter of time before Phoenix Petroleum operates itself, after all, Lu Shaohua's purpose is far greater than others think.

Controlling international oil is Lu Shaohua's ultimate goal, and Lu Shaohua is also constantly working in this direction......

There is a saying that is good, hearing is false, seeing is believing, now there is still a stroke of eight words, Lu Shaohua cannot guarantee that Royal Dutch Shell will definitely cooperate with Phoenix Oil, and they have to wait for their shareholders to vote to determine the result, so it seems a little too early to be happy now.

Maybe, Lu Shaohua's heart is more or less worried, worried that the cooperation will be lost, but is it possible?

You must know that Lu Shaohua handed over the order for the lubricant needed by Phoenix Motors to Royal Dutch Shell, which is a large order! Originally, Lu Shaohui was completely self-sufficient, and let Africa refine and supply.

However, in order to be able to cooperate with Royal Dutch Shell, Lu Shaohua gave up this idea and changed it to be provided by Royal Dutch Shell. Of course, knowing how to save money, Lu Shaohua will also do it, just because the Tiger Roar base in Africa also needs lubricating oil, and there is not much crude oil refined, and the amount of lubricating oil is limited, which made Lu Shaohua give up this practice.

Careful calculation, this is a must for every businessman, Lu Shaohua is now a qualified businessman, of course this thing will be calculated, and lubricating oil is the result of Lu Shaohua's careful calculation.

The benefits have been given, the cooperation plan has also been proposed, Lu Shaohua has tried his best, the final result depends on Royal Dutch Shell, Lu Shaohua can only take it to heart even if he is worried, and what should be done is still to be done.

In the Phoenix Petroleum team in full swing, the conference room of the Royal Dutch Shell Company in the UK is a different scene, and shareholders of all sizes are present to discuss the cooperation with the Phoenix Group.

People's ideas are decided by themselves, and the advantages of cooperating with the Phoenix Group outweigh the disadvantages, but there are also some people who oppose the cooperation with the Phoenix Group, they believe that Royal Dutch Shell does not need to rely on the Phoenix Group to enter the Asian market, and they have the strength to enter.

Does Royal Dutch Shell have the strength? The answer is obvious, they have this strength, but those who oppose it ignore one point, that is, is their strength stronger than the Phoenix Group?

The answer is also obvious, one ranks 37th and the other ranks 49th, this is the gap, Phoenix Group is stronger than their Royal Dutch Shell, so if Phoenix Group itself enters the oil field, try to ask them Royal Dutch Shell can still enter Asia?

No, absolutely not, with the influence of the Phoenix Group in Asia, it will be even more difficult for them to enter, and if they will run into the Phoenix Group in time, they will become enemies of their peers, and then they will not be partners, but enemies.

Philip? Watts is the CEO of Royal Dutch Shell, and although his stake is only a small one, he is the initiator of the cooperation plan, and he has the right to sit in this conference room.

And when there was some opposition to working with the Phoenix Group, Philip? Watts spoke, analyzed the whole thing in detail, and explained the pros and cons even more clearly, which suddenly made those shareholders who opposed it extinguish their flames and expressed their support for cooperation.

And just like that, the plan passed, and Philip? Watts also flew to Hong Kong the day after the shareholders' meeting to begin negotiations with Phoenix Group.

This time was different from last time, Lu Shaohua did not come forward in person, handed over everything to Qin Sichen, and asked Qin Sichen to talk to Philip? Oaz negotiated, he just wanted to know the result.

Qin Sichen did not disappoint Lu Shaohua, and after three days of negotiations, the two sides finally determined all the terms in the cooperation plan, and the cooperation was finally reached.

The cooperation between the two sides has set off a wave of enthusiasm both internationally and in Asia, which is a major news, and many media have also reported it, pushing the two Fortune 50 companies, Phoenix Group and Royal Dutch Shell, to a new level.

Lu Shaohua's current identity has been known to the outside world, and this kind of thing, he, the chairman, also needs to come out, accept an interview with the media, express his opinions, and then say some sensational words to establish his own influence.

Of course, these are all superficial, Lu Shaohua doesn't care, what he cares about is that his plan has finally begun.

The oil program has really set sail......
