Chapter 423: The Third Secret Talk
Jobs and Wildcat had two meetings, in which a lot of people and baggage were acquainted. Last time, he was coerced by the cold heart, so he reluctantly agreed to the idea of not going to fight the wildcat. However, after going back, I discussed with the boss the opinions put forward by Hanxin, and the boss meant that both should be carried out simultaneously, and one should not be missing.
The sea is very rich in resources, especially in places frequented by pirates. It's sparsely populated, and because everyone knows that there are pirates there, there's not much to build an oil platform there. Since Hanxin has its own forces over there and can guarantee its own exploitation, it is naturally a very happy thing to cooperate, and not only the oil under the seabed, but also some heavy resources such as natural gas and ancient shipwrecks. The value of these things is very large, and the income will be very objective.
However, the resources on the ground cannot be abandoned, and the discovery of the Chinese military department and the loss of oil extraction that Jobs was worried about before were denied by the boss Kidodov. He said there was a lot of oil in the north, and a lot of pipelines had already been bought. and some other oil supply points on the drawings form a cycle. If you don't care about this section and give it up, it will cause a lot of loss. So this matter is worrying Jobs, but I didn't expect Wildcat to take the initiative to contact him today. This surprised him.
The wildcat's relenting mouth made Jobs seem to see a glimmer of hope, if things messed up here, he really didn't have the face to go back to his boss Kikodov. So his eagerness lost his mind, and he forgot the point of why the wildcat suddenly changed his mind and wanted to sell the land to himself.
Sanjin Palace is always a little apprehensive. Although Wildcat agreed to sell the land to her, she would definitely have some other demands of her own. Jobs was really afraid that if the two of them didn't talk well and the talks broke down, it would be troublesome.
The first two times I came to negotiate made the situation tense, and I also caught up with a lot of people and strong. This time Jobs learned to be obedient. I didn't bring anyone, but I brought two entourages, and they looked particularly sincere in negotiation.
Outside the wildcat camp, Jobs got out of the car with trepidation, took a deep breath, and then walked out slowly, his face covered with sadness, as if he was thinking about how to deal with the wildcat himself later.
Because the first two times this guy was more noisy, Jobs was worried that it would be difficult for him to enter the camp, but when he passed Guò, no one stopped him, and after entering, someone made tea and poured water for him, which looked very polite. This made his heart suddenly feel a lot more relieved, and the original worry seemed to be thrown out of the clouds all of a sudden.
"Boss, the guest has arrived."
Wildcat's men greeted Wildcat respectfully, then helped them prepare some refreshments and went down.
"Mr. Jobs, let's try our Chinese desserts first, they are absolutely a must, you can't eat them abroad." Wildcat looked at Jobs with a smile and greeted him, never mentioning business matters.
Jobs looked around in large numbers, the house had seen a lot of people at once last time, and he was worried about some ambush this time. There is never a pie in the sky, and the wildcat takes the initiative to find himself, and he is a little worried that it is a conspiracy.
Wildcat looked at Jobs' vigilant appearance and couldn't help but smile: "Mr. Jobs, are you worried that I will recruit someone to ambush you?" The hospitality of our Chinese people is that you respect me a foot, and I will return you a foot. Mr. Jobs came alone this time, so how could I put you along? Rest assured, there is no ambush here. ”
"Hahaha...... Lady Wildcat said with a smile, I just looked at the murals on the walls around me and was admiring them. ”
"Oh? Really? Hehe. The wildcat didn't say anything, just smiled.
Jobs was a notoriously sinister man, so his caution was just right. This guy has always followed the South American oil tycoon's left and right like a pug, never leaving his side half a step all day long. He is very docile in front of his master, but he becomes very fierce in front of others.
Having a request for a natural greeting is indispensable, Jobs has been out for so long, this rule is still understood, he took out something from his arms, and then handed it to the wild cat with a smile: "Wild cat lady, there was a little misunderstanding between us last time." It caused some minor friction, but I think our friendship is still there. Buying and selling is not benevolent, don't you say? Please be sure to accept this item. ”
Wildcat glanced at the gift in Jobs' hand, then put it aside without opening it: "You're too polite." Every time I come, I give gifts, how embarrassed am I? ”
"Hehe, it's a little meaning, it's not a tribute." When Jobs saw that the wildcat accepted the gift, his heart was much more relieved. The rest of the story became much more natural. This is the case when you go out, you ask someone to do something, and someone else takes something from you, and you have at least sixty percent certainty that you can do it.
The wildcat didn't be too polite with Jobs, accepted the gift and said coldly: "Mr. Jobs, let's talk about business, this time I came to you, in fact, I want to sell the land in my hands." ”
"Oh?" Jobs looked indifferent, "Ms. Wildcat, you refused to sell last time, why did you take the initiative to sell it this time?" ”
Jobs knocked on the side as if he was testing the tone of the wild cat, as if he was worried about something. This old fox has been galloping around the mall for a long time, and he is still very vigilant and uneasy about some things.
"Hehe, can I not say it?" The wildcat looked a little embarrassed.
"Of course, it's okay if Miss Wildcat is upset to say it. It's your freedom. ”
"Thank you." Wildcat nodded slightly at Jobs, "This land has a special meaning to me. This is a piece of land where I came to the north to gain a foothold. But I've always been a woman. I've always been strong, but I think women are women after all, and in the face of money and war, I think it's more practical for me to have money in my hands. ”
In a materialistic society, money is more important than anything else. Everyone understands this. Jobs's vigilance against wild cats slowly decreased.
"And what's the price Wildcat Lady has offered this time?"
Jobs was like a big boss with his legs crossed and trading with the wild cats, and the last time the wild cats offered a very high price, and then he went back without catching his fart. This time, if the wildcats offered a sky-high price again, Jobs didn't know what to do.
The wildcat glanced at Jobs with a smile, and then raised his two hands, and Jobs smiled slightly: "A million dollars? ”
Wildcat shook his head slightly: "One hundred million dollars." ”
"What?"
Jobs' face turned pale suddenly. The things he had in mind finally came to him. This woman is really a lion, and she said such a high price at once. With the addition of the previous things, the total value of this land has exceeded 150 million US dollars.
If this matter is messed up, there is really no way to explain it to the boss, and he is beating the drum in his heart, and he doesn't know what to do. There was really no such thing as a pie in the sky, and he frowned slightly and looked a little embarrassed.
"How about $50 million?" Jobs suddenly cut the price in half. He seems to be able to afford such a price.
"Fifty million dollars?" Wildcat couldn't help but be stunned. The price of such a is already very high, much higher than I imagined. I didn't expect that the old man Xu Jianguo really didn't fool himself. He let himself lease the land in his hands to the gringos first, and then he made money himself, and he was able to do things for the country. In the future, the military department will inevitably take care of her.
In the north, for the time being, the wildcats are relying on the power of the Jin family. But Jin Shiqiang is not a good thing, he has always wanted to pit himself and regarded himself as a pawn in his hands. The wildcat knew that he would break away from him at any time, so it was better to find a stronger support for himself, and then take the money on himself first.
The South American oil tycoon wants his land so much, and it is estimated that he is willing to pay 50 million US dollars. The wildcat was somewhat stunned, and Jobs's appearance looked as steady as Mount Tai, without a trace of superfluous expression on his face.
"Mr. Jobs, I'm sincere in my business with you. It's not kind for you to bargain like this, even if you buy clothes, you can't cut half of them all at once! 50 million dollars to buy a piece of land as big as mine, don't even think about it. However, if you want to say that it is not a purchase, but a rent, then I can consider this price. ”
Wildcat suddenly changed his tone and said that the original purchase had been rented. Jobs thought carefully about it, and if the rich oil resources under the ground were leased for ten or twenty years, it was estimated that they would be exhausted early. If you buy it at once, when the resources are exhausted, the land will lose its original value, and the other $50 million will be lost. But if you don't buy it but rent it, then you can still earn it back, and you can earn many, many times more.
Wildcat looked at Jobs' pensive look and couldn't help but snicker secretly. This nerd looks like he's about to take the bait.
"How? Have you figured it out? If you don't agree to rent, unless you pay more, our negotiations will end there. ”
As the wildcat spoke, he was about to get up and leave, and at this time, Jobs was most afraid to hear two words: send-off.
"Wait......"
Jobs suddenly stopped the wild cat, and the wild cat's head couldn't help but twist and glance at Jobs, and some kind of weird sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "What? Have you figured it out? ”
"Rent is rent. But how about renting it for $50 million for 20 years? ”
"Fifteen years!"
Wildcat's eyes were cold, and like Jobs, he was particularly good at bargaining.
"Eighteen years!"
"Ten years!"
Jobs also wanted to fight for a little more for himself, but he didn't expect the wildcat to talk less and less. Her meaning was already obvious, and she refused to bargain.
Now the initiative is completely out of his hands, and Jobs looks particularly helpless.
Looking at the Wildcat's determined face, Jobs hesitated a little: "Ms. Wildcat, can we ...... Can you discuss it again? In terms of price, we can ......"
"I'm sorry, I've already decided. If you can't decide, then that's all we can do. ”
Jobs saw that the wildcat had no room to back down, so he could only grit his teeth and stomp his feet to win the lease of the land.
"Okay, if you rent for ten years, you can rent for ten years." Jobs made a decision at once. He felt that within ten years, the underground oil in the north would be almost exhausted, and then it would be worthless, and it would be meaningless to take a few more years. Ten years is ten years.
The wildcat smiled, and the smile was full of triumphant triumph.
"It's refreshing enough, I like to work with very bold men, Mr. St.Jobs, you are one of the most powerful men I have ever met." The wildcat finished speaking haha. Although this was a compliment, it sounded sarcastic to Jobs.
Wildcat suddenly came up with a new agreement for Jobs to sign, and Jobs signed his name without thinking.
