265 The clarion call for the old energy system to fight back
"Of course you're not worth it, well, Ginnings, put away your ridiculous set, I don't think you're very welcome here," Hughes was reluctant to talk too much nonsense with him, because the other party was insincere.
"Is this your final answer?" Ginnings was a little angry, as no one had ever humiliated him in public since he became vice chairman of the Shell board.
"Of course, how could I possibly agree to such a ridiculous request?" Hughes squinted, then made a gesture of please, "I don't think you're fit to stay here." ”
"You'll regret it, damn it." Ginnings tugged at his bow tie and shook his head away in hatred, knowing that he had been abandoned, as almost no one in the room had chosen to keep him.
"It's really disappointing, but it's better that he's gone, and everyone can be happier to get together at this moment." Sir James looked at his distant back and sneered, maybe tomorrow the Barclays Bank demand receipts will all be sent to the Shell Group.
"Mr. Aldrich, things are troublesome, they have reached an agreement to promote new electric cars and aero engines, and they have strongly rejected our request for a stake." As soon as he left the palace, Ginnings immediately chose to convey the news to the people behind him.
"Go to my castle at once and tell me everything completely!" There was only this cold voice on the phone, and then the other party quickly hung up the phone without even waiting for Ginnings to continue......
And at this moment, in a castle in Warrington, Cheshire, there was a roar of anger followed by a voice of persuasion, "Hey, my old friend, this precious Persian carpet is very rare, it is worth at least 200,000 pounds, you are destroying a precious work of art." ”
"Listen, Reuben, our plan is over, the Shell you tried to get your hands on and was unsuccessful is being treated like a dog today, and your Scottish gas energy group is likely to be the biggest threat."
Baron Michael Aldrich, one of the biggest hidden giants behind Dutch Shell, also controls a large stake in Eagle Grand North Sea Oil Company and Royal Oil Company, but after today he will face the biggest threat of his life, as electric engines and solar panel technology will completely crush his business empire.
"Watts? But what does this have to do with me, I'm in the natural resources investment and carpet real estate business. Next to him was David Reuben, the second richest man in the Forbes Eagle Nation, who was a little surprised when he heard this.
However, it is obvious that his ancestry makes him unable to fully integrate into the top class of the Eagle Country, even if the wealth difference between him and the richest man in the Eagle Country is only 2 billion meters, but the gap between their level and status is world-wide, and it can even be seen from just one title, the Grand Duke of Westminster and the commoner David Ruer, God knows that he didn't even have a knighthood.
"Put away your funny smile, don't think I don't know you've been trying to get your hands on the energy market, your gas group has made a total of seven acquisitions this year, involving more than 600 million eagle pounds, if it weren't for me covering for you, do you think your acquisition plan would be so smooth?"
As an invisible super-rich, Aldrich secretly has a wealth of more than 100 billion meters, but even so, he is not completely accepted by the upper echelons of the Eagle Country, because he used the so-called legitimate means to seize more than three large oil fields from the Eagle Grand Royal Oil Group, causing the latter to lose billions of meters and a lot of expansion time, and behind the Royal Oil is the group of oligarchs gathered today.
The conflict between the two sides cannot be reconciled, but the other party obviously has no good way to deal with him, because he is also not easy to provoke.
"Okay, but what does that mean? Aldrich, you must know that my business focus has not changed, real estate is my foundation, even if I give up this part of the natural gas shares, I can still gain a foothold in the upper echelons of the Eagle Country, I can't offend these people, their power is too strong. David Ruben tried to pretend to divert the topic intentionally or unintentionally, but the slight angle of his mouth revealed the fear in his heart at the moment.
"Don't try to provoke me, I know all the details of you, and if you don't care, then what are you doing here at the moment? Don't tell me that the biggest owner behind Libya's No. 7 oil field is not you, it is a super oil and gas area worth 9 billion meters, if you retreat at this moment, then your total loss will exceed 4 billion meters, or even more than one-third of your value, can you accept it calmly? ”
Aldrich looked at him with disdain, the sad descendant of Ah San, lacking roots and connections in the entire Eagle Country, this is the most fundamental factor that he can play with this kind of person in the palm of his hand, he doesn't even have the capital to fight with himself, if it weren't for Hughes throwing out new energy to disrupt his position, then he may be in a few years, he will completely eat this fool sent to the door, which can make a lot of money, but it's a pity, now they have a common enemy, and they have to stop temporarily.
"It's impossible, my oil field is there, and the oil exported every day is constantly bringing me profits, and they can't crush us all at once." David Ruben looked at the man who had overturned him in shock, and for a moment, he almost felt as if he was being targeted by a cold wolf.
"Put away your self-entertaining tricks, I'm sorry to tell you, these are your conjectures, oil black gold is indeed full of charm, but you have to have time to turn them into cash, but now, Hughes They can't give us this time, once the pure electric engine is put on the market, then our company's stock will dive sharply, and the global oil price will continue to fall, in order to earn the last income before the oil apocalypse, the world will be crazy to dig for oil, Will you be able to make sure that your oil will sell? ”
Aldrich said the worst outcome, a pure electric car is not terrible, because it will give them enough buffer time, what is terrible is the same use of this high-power electric engine and solar technology in the aerospace field, because this will mean that many countries will selectively abandon some oil, which is equivalent to slowly cutting meat with a soft knife for the huge Shell, it will hurt every time, but it will not die immediately, but for David Reuben, a new tycoon who lacks channels in the world, It's almost fatal.
"Oh my God, you can't do that." David Ruben said in horror that he must plan for his future, knowing that most of his liquidity has been invested in Libya, and the rest is to choose to go to the bank for financing, it is unfortunate that the object of his financing is Barclays Bank and the Bank of Scotland, once the other party takes a preemptive offensive, then he will not even have a chance to resist, he will be instantly crushed by debt, and thus go bankrupt, and no bank will choose to continue to support him at that time.
"Listen, once there is a bad point in things, then it will definitely develop towards the worst outcome, you have no other choice, this is your war to the death, they rejected our overtures, then it is a clear signal of war, we must fight back fiercely, in order to gain a foothold, now, I ask you, do you also join forces with me, join forces with the old energy system of our whole world, and defeat them together."
Aldrich was unwilling to raise his hand and surrender, and he would not even have a chance to negotiate peace, because what he thought was the most moderate means of peace was also closed by the other party.
"What do you want me to do?" Being able to go from rags-to-riches to a business tycoon with 11.5 billion yuan in assets is enough to prove that David Ruben is by no means an ordinary person, although he may be blocked for rashly getting involved in unfamiliar areas, but this does not mean that he will not fight back fiercely after gaining a foothold.
"The most important point of the matter is the information that the mysterious L will provide to Hughes, as far as I know, it is now quietly hidden in some hidden place, we need to get it, or stop Hughes's footsteps, and kill him is the best option, and among us, you are the most suitable, because you have a whole army in Libya, don't doubt it, I know that it is your backhand that is preparing to fight back against us oil predators, but now we are on the side."
Aldrich sneered in his heart, if a private army of two or three thousand people can protect billions of Mi Yuan assets from being infringed, then it is too easy to earn Mi Yuan in this world, no background is no background, doing things like a hillbilly is as reckless and ridiculous, he is not even as good as a certain Zafi, at least the other party also has a private army of more than 100,000 yuan, but so what? For the sake of profit, the capitalists can persuade a whole coalition of countries to provide military force against rivals.
"You want me to kill him? But this is a clear violation of the rules of the game. David Ruben said in horror, and even the red wine he had just picked up in his hand to drink to relieve stress fell on the blanket in shock, but this time he didn't have time to worry about it anymore.
"If you don't kill him, then when their alliance is formed and they attack us, you won't even have room to resist, think about it, as long as you can kill him and delay this happening, our entire European and even the world's oil groups can join forces to buy time to force them to make concessions, and you, as the biggest hero among us, will get profits that you can't even think of!"
Aldrich was like an old wolf staring at his prey, closer, closer, and closer, and he could not escape from his palm...... (To be continued.) )
