Syllable.

Peter turned off the phone and skillfully redialed, still without a response, and tried again and again...... Didn't get through.

"How's it going, no one answered?" Ayrt asked anxiously.

Well.

Peter put down the phone and whispered helplessly, as if his mood was a little heavy. It was as if he had a premonition of something bad.

"Neither Salim nor the Kuwait Investment Authority office answered the phone, and there may be an accident...... No, I need to visit Salim quickly. ”

With that, Peter quickly stood up and rushed out of the office.

"Wait, Peter!"

Alt was also anxious, but he did not lose his ability to think calmly.

"Huh?"

Peter subconsciously stopped his steps, turned around, and cast a puzzled look at Ayrt, as if he didn't understand why he was stopped.

Right now.

Any more second of delay could result in an irreparable defeat. What other brilliant ideas does Ef-Elt have?

"Hmm...... Peter, I thought about it for a moment and felt that someone had leaked the news that the Kuwait Investment Authority was going to reduce its stake in BP Oil. It's very important who leaked it! You have to understand that with the help of the government, we are forcing the Kuwait Investment Authority to act in a way that is very unpleasant. At the critical moment, Ayrte became much calmer, his voice revealed coldness, and said: "It can be said that the Kuwait Investment Authority is very hateful about this, and they may be involved." ”

In fact.

Ayrt did not suspect the Kuwait Investment Authority at first, after all, the other party owns 25.93% of the British BP oil company, and is the deserved largest shareholder of British BP oil company, and the stock price has plummeted, and for them, their losses are also the heaviest. However, at this delicate juncture. It's a bit of a coincidence that Peter's calls to Salim and the Kuwait Investment Authority offices went unanswered.

"What? Ayrte, don't be kidding, the stock price has plummeted, and they have lost the most. Peter subconsciously smiled and shook his head.

He thought Ayrte's statement was very ridiculous.

Now.

Kuwaitis should pray for a boost in the share price of BP and then find a good time to slowly exit.

"Peter, I'm very serious, no kidding!" Ayrt said solemnly. "Don't forget, the Kuwait Investment Authority's money comes from oil revenues, and every corner of their land is an inexhaustible supply of oil, and even if it is lost, it can be quickly recouped. In other words, they seek to gain on their investments, but may not mind losing money at some point. ”

"For example...... They feel humiliated by our strong persecution. They may be trying to get revenge......" Alt speculated.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Peter became more serious. At the same time, his mind couldn't help but think of the kindness you had shown to the Kuwait Investment Authority when Salim left the British Treasury building that night. Someday I'll regret it. Neither he nor Sir Middleton cared about it at first, but it was just a verbal catharsis of Salim's dissatisfaction.

Neither Peter nor Sir Middleton thought that Salim would dare to do anything against them.

But.

Now it seems that they all underestimated Salim. If you short the BP oil company stock in the UK. With the Kuwait Investment Authority involved, then the trouble is big.

"Hoo ......"

Suddenly, Peter felt the pressure on him increase again.

"Peter. Relax. ”

Ayrt seemed to sense that Peter was feeling a little heavy, comforted, and then said a little softened: "This is only the most serious consequence I guessed, and I thank you for thinking too much about it." Either way, it's better if you visit Salim in person, if it's not them, it's better. You can also ask them to suspend their shareholding reduction plan......"

"Hmm."

Peter nodded.

It's stressful.

However, since becoming the chairman of the board of directors of BP Oil, he has encountered all kinds of pressures, just like last year, when the stock was publicly listed, it hit the stock market crash, the stock could not be sold, and the relationship with the American brokerage company was strained, and even alarmed the leaders of the two countries, but in the end he did not survive. BP Petroleum also made its way to the New York Stock Exchange, and its share price slowly climbed.

After overcoming all the difficulties, do you still care about the pressure of a stock price crisis?

"Ayrte, try to raise as much money as possible, and be ready to deal with the unexpected." Peter told him that he could not let the company's share price fall.

"Well, I understand." Ayrt replied.

……

The headquarters of BP Petroleum is not very far from the embassy in Kuwait, and it only took more than half an hour to drive there.

The car was parked opposite the Kuwaiti Embassy.

Peter sat in the car, straightened his clothes a little, took a deep breath, and the moment he stepped out of the car, he already had an impeccable smile on his face.

This.

He took the initiative to visit Salim, he was at an absolute disadvantage, and if he was as strong as that night, it would be tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.

Right now.

Peter secretly prayed in his heart that the short sale of BP oil shares had nothing to do with the Kuwait Investment Authority, let alone join it.

Come inside the embassy.

Peter explained his intentions, but no one was perfunctory, and he was soon led into Salim's office.

"Hello, Mr. Peter. What an accident, you're here to find me. Salim greeted him with a smile, as if he had long forgotten the previous unpleasantness.

When I met Peter, I was as enthusiastic as seeing an old friend.

"Hello, Mr. Salim."

Peter smiled and stretched out his hand and shook Salim's hand, and at the same time, looking at Salim's enthusiasm, the heaviness in his heart lightened slightly.

After exchanging pleasantries, Salim and Peter sat down one after the other.

Then.

Peter didn't have the time or mood to do the foreshadowing, so he went straight to the point, "Mr. Salim, the Kuwait Investment Authority is the largest shareholder of BP Petroleum in the United Kingdom......"

"Hehe, this is only temporary, and it won't be anytime soon." Salim corrected with a smile.

"Uh."

Peter didn't expect that he was interrupted by Salim before he could finish his sentence. I was a little unhappy in my heart, but when I thought of today's intention, I quickly suppressed the unhappiness in my heart. At this time, he realized that Salim had not forgotten about the oppression he had suffered with Sir Middleton a few days ago, and that the other party was very concerned.

Peter was guessing Salim's thoughts.

Suddenly.

Salim said, "Mr. Peter, in fact, you don't need to come and urge you personally, since we have all agreed to your conditions, we will naturally abide by it, and the Kuwait Investment Authority will reduce the stock price below the upper limit within the agreed one-year period." Rest assured. It's going to be soon! Well, this acquisition of BP shares was presided over by Taraka, and I had already called yesterday to urge him to reduce his holdings as soon as possible. Or will I urge again? ”

"Uh...... No, no. Mr. Salim, I think you misunderstood, this is not in a hurry. Suddenly hearing that Salim wanted to urge the Kuwait Investment Authority to reduce his holdings as soon as possible, he was startled and hurriedly waved his hand.

"Huh? Mr. Peter. What do you mean by that? Isn't the Kuwait Investment Authority's reduction of its holdings as soon as possible exactly what you want? ”

Salim asked, looking at Peter strangely.

Forehead.

Peter looked at Salim, who looked puzzled, and suddenly the bad feeling became even heavier. Although Salim seemed normal, he always felt that something was wrong with the other party, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

"Mr. Salim, the Kuwait Investment Authority's plan to reduce its holdings will be completed within one year. No need to rush. You should understand that too many BP oil shares appear on the market, which affects the share price...... to the Kuwait Investment Authority. It's not good for BP Oil! ”

Peter pretended to be magnanimous.

Then.

After a slight pause, he asked slowly: "Mr. Salim, have you disclosed to outsiders about the Kuwait Investment Authority's intention to reduce the shares of BP Oil?" ”

After asking.

Peter's eyes were fixed on Salim, unblinking, observing the other man's reaction. But he was doomed to disappointment.

How could Salim be Kuwait's ambassador to the United Kingdom so superficially and reveal his thoughts to others.

Really.

Salim's reaction was not unusual, and he smiled in surprise and said, "Mr. Peter, your question is a little strange. The Kuwait Investment Authority leaked the news, causing the stock price of the British BP oil company to plummet, and the biggest loss is ourselves, and the leak will not do me any good? ”

"Huh? Mr. Peter, you mean that the outside world has already learned of the agreement we reached? Salim suddenly asked anxiously.

"Forehead ......"

Salim's reaction was unexpected, but it was also in love. After all, the collapse of the share price of BP oil will undoubtedly be bad news for them.

"Mr. Peter, you must give me a reasonable explanation. The news leaked, and the Kuwait Investment Authority will face even greater losses. We're not going to do such a stupid thing, it's definitely from your side......" Salim said angrily, with a deep sense of displeasure on his face.

"Mr. Salim, this is just speculation. Like you, we're not going to do such a stupid thing. The stock price has plummeted, you have suffered heavy losses, and my life will not be easy. Peter smiled wryly. He didn't expect that he didn't get any clues from Salim, but was beaten upside down.

Peter could also understand Salim's anger.

"It shouldn't be them...... looking at Salim, who was angry like a lion, Peter became much more relieved, it wasn't the Kuwaitis who did it, and the matter was much easier to solve.

After having a basic judgment.

Peter decided to tell the story, saying, "Mr. Salim, maybe you don't know it, but today someone is suddenly selling off the stock price of BP Oil Company in the United Kingdom and suppressing the stock price. I think we should face this situation together. It is not a good time for the Kuwait Investment Authority to reduce its holdings at this time. So, please don't move for now! ”

"No problem, as long as you don't rush, we are naturally not in a hurry, waiting for a good opportunity to sell shares, for the Kuwait Investment Authority, it is naturally better!"

Salim said with a smile without any hesitation.

Then.

He seized the opportunity and continued to complain: "Mr. Peter, I think the one-year deadline you have given is too tight, and it will be a great loss to the Kuwait Investment Authority to sell such a large number of shares in such a short period of time, and it will not be good for you. ”

"Well, yes. But this is Sir Middleton's order, and you should know that it is really very difficult to change his decision! Although Peter didn't think so, at this time, he really didn't dare to provoke Salim, so he could only take Sir Middleton out of the blame.

"So, Mr. Peter would be happy to accept more time for the Kuwait Investment Authority?" Salim's eyes lit up.

"Hmm."

Peter could only reply, which was an answer. Now that the stock market is uncertain, it may really need the support of the Kuwait Investment Authority.

Therefore.

His answer was also to reserve an extra way out.

……

A brief chat.

Peter did not want to say more on these pointless questions, and reminded: "Mr. Salim, please call the person in charge of the BP oil company at once and ask them to temporarily stop the plan to sell the shares." I'm worried about ......"

"Oh, yes, yes."

Salim also seemed to react, and replied again and again, followed by the phone, and said: "I will immediately inform the ...... of Taraka" (to be continued...... R1292
