"Happy working together!"

"Happy working together!"

After signing the trade contract, Peter and Owen smiled at each other and shook hands. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Although there were some twists and turns in the negotiation process, both parties were happy with the deal.

Transactions involving petroleum resources need to be reviewed and approved by the regulatory authorities of the relevant countries. Owen Petroleum is a British company that has interests in two oil blocks in the North Sea of the United Kingdom, as well as oil and gas assets in the Gulf of Mexico and Canada. Therefore, Tang Dynasty Energy Group's acquisition of Owen Petroleum Company needs to be approved by regulators in the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada at the same time to be successfully completed.

Of course.

When Peter decided to buy Irving Oil, he assessed the difficulty of government review and believed that the transaction would successfully pass the review of the regulators in the three countries.

Subsequently.

Peter quickly referred the case to review regulators in the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada.

Tang Dynasty Energy Group's $500 million acquisition of Owen Petroleum Company, the transaction amount is not large, but it is not a small amount, and Peter, who led the acquisition, is in the whirlpool of public opinion, and it stands to reason that the acquisition case will definitely attract the strong attention of reporters, but unfortunately, at this time, another thing attracted the attention of the whole world.

The war in Kuwait has broken out!

August 2, 1990.

At two o'clock in the morning, Iraq's 100,000-strong army, with the support of the air force and the cooperation of the navy, raided Kuwait. The Kuwaiti army, which had long been vigilant, broke through the border defense line before it could organize a decent resistance in the face of a large-scale attack by the Iraqi army, despite its strict precautions.

At 11 o'clock, Iraqi forces stormed Kuwait City, quickly occupied radio and radio stations, closed Kuwait International Airport, and surrounded Dasman Palace, the Prime Minister's Office, and the Ministry of Defense.

At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Iraqi troops stormed Dasman Palace and took control of the entire city of Kuwait. Prince Fahd, the youngest brother of King Jaber III, led some members of the royal family to be killed in the defense of the palace, while the rest of the royal family fled into Saudi Arabia.

It took Iraq just a dozen hours to destroy Kuwait!

Well.

When many people woke up, the first thing they got was that Kuwait had been wiped out by Iraqi forces.

The whole world was stunned.

Relations between Iraq and Kuwait are well understood, but Iraq's brazen invasion of Kuwait remains appalled.

The UN Security Council convened an emergency meeting to strongly condemn Iraq's aggression and demand that Iraq withdraw its troops immediately and unconditionally.

US President George H.W. Bush delivered a speech condemning Iraq's aggressive behavior in Chiguoguo, freezing Iraq's assets in the United States at the first opportunity, and at the same time ordering two aircraft carrier battle groups to sail toward the bay.

Other countries and international organizations in the world have also responded swiftly to Iraq's military aggression and have generally and strongly condemned Iraq's aggression......

Kuwait is small, but it has the world's fourth-largest oil reserves, and it has interests in all countries around the world. In addition, the outbreak of war was sudden, and many foreign nationals were trapped in Kuwait and unable to evacuate.

So.

Countries are busy.

……

this day.

In every corner of the world, if you turn on the television and switch to a channel at random, you will see news reports about Iraq's invasion of Kuwait.

The big TV screen scrolled with the latest news about the war in Kuwait. The war in Kuwait is a global sensation, so many TV channels have chosen to pause other programs to keep track of the latest developments in the Kuwaiti war and invite celebrity experts to interpret the war.

"Phew, the war in Kuwait has really broken out." Kate muttered to herself as she watched the constant images of war coming across the TV screen.

Then, he cast a very complicated look at Tang Bao. Others didn't know, but she knew that Tang Bao had long asserted that war would break out, but she didn't expect it to be true.

Well?

Tang Bao's senses were very keen, Kate stared at her, and was instantly noticed, of course, he also found the complexity in Kate's eyes.

"Oh, Kate, why are you looking at me with a strange look, is there something wrong with my face?" Tang Bao quipped with a light smile.

"This ...... No! It's just that the war in Kuwait broke out and I was shocked. Kate hesitated and argued.

Oh.

Tang Bao smiled and nodded, he could see that Kate's explanation was a little insincere, but since she didn't want to say it, he wouldn't force it.

"Well, boss, it's a good thing we left Kuwait in time, if it's two days late, I'm afraid we will be affected by the war." Kate said with a look of joy on her face.

Affect?

Tang Bao smiled secretly, he knew the exact time when the war broke out, how could he be affected by the war? Of course, this is a secret that belongs to him, and he can't tell the outside world.

"yes, very lucky. I expected the war in Kuwait to break out, but I didn't expect it to be so sudden, I almost ......," Tang Bao deliberately sighed.

"Hmm."

Kate nodded silently in agreement.

Then.

Kate asked in surprise: "Boss, the war in Kuwait will cause a sharp rise in international oil prices, you expected the war to break out, why don't you operate oil futures?" ”

"Oh, the rise in international oil prices is inevitable, but it does not reach the level of skyrocketing, and the profits of long oil futures are very limited. Why, are you interested in oil futures, do you want to allocate some money for you to try your hand? Tang Bao said with a smile. After shorting the Japanese stock market, he made a lot of money and raised his appetite. Ordinary investment income projects, it is difficult to attract him to make a move in person.

Hearing that Tang Bao was going to give her the funds to operate, Kate hurriedly shook her head and excused herself. She followed Tang Bao and witnessed many large transactions, but she had no confidence in her heart to let her go into battle in person.

Suddenly.

Just then, the phone rang. Kate hurriedly connected, and as soon as she had just spoken a few words, she quickly transferred the phone to Tang, reminding her that it was the phone of a domestic old man.

"Grandpa."

"Where are you? Not affected by the war in Kuwait, right? The old man asked.

"Ha, don't worry, grandpa, I'm in England." Tang Bao replied with a smile.

"Well, that's good."

"By the way, grandpa, have the domestic personnel in Kuwait been evacuated in advance?"

"......" the old man was silent.

Ay.

Tang Bao couldn't help sighing, it seems that the country did not take his warning to heart. He did everything he had to do, and he couldn't do anything else.

"Where did you get the news that war is about to break out?" The old man asked.

"This ......"

Tang Bao was embarrassed, how could he have any sources, knowing that the outbreak of the war in Kuwait was completely from the memories of his previous life.

"That's it, I won't embarrass you."

Call.

Tang Bao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the old man would find out the bottom line.

"Okay, nothing else, I'm hanging."

"Okay, grandpa, you pay more attention to your body. Well, remember to tell my parents and sister-in-law that I'm fine. I will return to China during the Spring Festival this year. ”

……

Ding Ding Ding.

Belch.

As soon as I hung up the phone, the phone rang again. Tang Bao was slightly stunned, and secretly thought, today's calls are really frequent.

"Hey."

"Why can't I get through on the phone?"

"Oh, I was on the phone with my grandfather just now, let's get busy." As soon as the familiar voice came, Tang Bao could tell who it was, it was his girlfriend Li Zhen. After receiving Li Zhen's words, Tang Bao was still a little surprised, usually Li Zhen rarely took the initiative to call him.

"Where are you?" Li Zhen asked again.

"London." Tang Bao replied.

Call.

Li Zhen on the other end of the phone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and sighed that it was okay. When she returned from the library and saw the news of the outbreak of the war in Kuwait, she panicked. Because she remembered that she was very hungry, when she was on the phone with Tang Bao not long ago, Tang Bao mentioned that she was going to Kuwait for investment inspection. She was afraid that Tang Bao would be trapped in Kuwait, so she hurriedly called, so she couldn't get through the line all the time, which further aggravated the panic in her heart.

"Ah, Li Zhen, why did you cry suddenly, what grievances did you suffer?" Suddenly hearing a soft sobbing sound from the phone, Tang Bao asked in a panic.

Pity.

Tang Bao didn't speak, but when he opened his mouth, the sobs became louder.

"What the hell is going on?" Tang Bao was in a hurry.

"It's fine, just missing you a little. When I finish my summer papers, I'll go to the UK to find you. Li Zhen put away her sobbing and said softly

Said with a smile.

Forehead.

Tang Bao felt a little inexplicable, but he was quickly distracted by Li Zhen's words, "Come to London? When? ”

"The plane the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Tang Bao said excitedly.

Since he went to Harvard University to eat Li Zhen, the two have not seen each other for several months. When the two get together, they can naturally enjoy the joy of fish and water...... (To be continued.) )
