I didn't pay attention to it before, but at this time, listening to Zhang Bingqian say this, Guan Zhilin recalled the scenes of the last few meetings with Wu Siyuan, and now Wu Siyuan's attitude towards her does have a very subtle change, Wu Siyuan used to treat her as a junior, and he spoke and did things casually in front of her, and he didn't deliberately pay attention to anything, but the last few times he seemed to be a little more cautious in front of her, or a sense of distance.

Zhang Bingqian continued: "If all the rich people in the world are compared to the lion who is the king of all beasts in the animal world, then Gu Chen is the lion king, and the entire animal world is his prey. ”

"Back to the topic of contraception, now your task is to stop contraception, but this must be done with Gu Chen's consent, and you must not do it privately, otherwise it will not be good for him to have thoughts about you. As for what to do, this mommy can't help you, you have to think for yourself. ”

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say, and I've taught you everything I can teach you, now let's eat, otherwise the food will be cold later."

Guan Zhilin also has a younger brother, Guan Shan and Zhang Bingqian followed Zhang Bingqian after their divorce, and they are in high school, but they are in full-time high school and can't go home until the weekend, so only the two of them eat lunch by themselves. But when she was eating, Guan Zhilin looked like she was in a state of despair, obviously thinking about what had just happened. Zhang Bingqian could only shake her head secretly when she saw this, just as she said - a man like Gu Chen is indeed irresistible to women, and it is reasonable that Guan Zhilin, who has always regarded love as a floating cloud, would be so fascinated by it.

In the middle of the meal, the landline phone in the living room suddenly rang. Zhang Bingqian put down her chopsticks and got up and walked over to pick up the phone, Guan Zhilin didn't care, just glanced up. continued to bow her head to eat, but soon she Zhang Bingqian's expression was a little weird, and when she was strange, Zhang Bingqian had already covered the microphone with her hand and whispered to her: "Your phone number is Gu Chen." ”

Hearing this, Guan Zhilin immediately jumped up from the chair. A few steps over to take the phone: "...... Well...... I'm having dinner with my mom...... It's cold there right now...... Uh-huh...... I'll let you know when I've booked my ticket...... You need to dress yourself more......"

Although Zhang Bingqian was very curious about what Gu Chen and Guan Zhilin said, as a mother, even if she was as close to her daughter as sisters, she had to be a little scruple about her image. So instead of standing by the telephone to listen, she returned to the dining table, and when she saw Guan Zhilin hang up the phone, she immediately asked anxiously: "This time in Hong Kong should be early in the morning." What did Gu Chen call you for. It should be a good thing to see you smiling. ”

Guan Zhilin sat back on the chair at the dining table and said with a smile: "Ah Chen is now in Ottawa, Canada, it seems that he is talking about business, and he asked me to accompany him." ”

……

Oil is known as the blood of industry, is an indispensable energy source for the world economic exhibition, and in the future, the price of international crude oil will increase year by year, and it will have passed 1oo US dollars when he was reborn. It is five or six times that of the current one, and the economic benefits are huge. And if he can master a large amount of oil resources, it can also greatly increase his influence. So just after the New Year, Gu Chen set his sights on oil.

This time, he came to Canada to target Petro-Canada, Canada's largest oil and gas company, which holds a large amount of oil and gas resources and belongs to the Canadian national enterprise. It stands to reason that since it is a state-owned enterprise, he has no idea of anything, but in recent years, Canada has been following the example of Britain and privatizing a large number of state-owned enterprises, which has provided him with an opportunity.

In fact, before the New Year, Ye Leixin, general manager of Tang Dynasty Petroleum Company, had already made a request to the Canadian government for acquisition, and the Canadian government's reply was that it was willing to negotiate with Tang Dynasty Petroleum Company on the acquisition issue.

Good progress had been made in just a few days, and by the time Gu Chen arrived in Canada, the negotiations were almost over. Although Canada has been relatively less affected by the global economic crisis triggered by the United States, since the beginning of the 80s, the Western economy has been generally sluggish, and Canada is also facing tremendous economic pressure.

Second, Gu Chen's trip to the UK at the end of last year greatly dispelled the concerns of the Canadian government; Finally, Tang Dynasty Petroleum has a U.S.-funded background, which further dispels the concerns of the Canadian government. The latter two points may be the root cause, after all, oil is a strategic resource, and the Canadian government cannot afford to let a person who disagrees with the West control Canada's largest oil company.

The day after Gu Chen's arrival in Ottawa, the Canadian government held a simple but grand signing ceremony in the office building of the Ministry of Industry. Jones attended the ceremony, and under the lens of Canadian television cameras, Tang Dynasty Petroleum Company General Manager Ye Leixin and the current General Manager of Petro-Canada signed an agreement under which Tang Dynasty Petroleum Company purchased 6o% of Petro-Canada for $1.2 billion and became Petro-Canada's holding company.

After the ceremony, Gu Chen came to Joseph's office, a very simple but spacious and bright office, the key is to have a small bar, which is still relatively rare in Hong Kong: "I'm glad you can come to my office, really, please take a seat." I heard that you like Amber Coffee very much, so I have some specially prepared for this, please wait. So saying, Joseph walked into the little bar. I saw him take out a grinder from the bar, and then put some coffee beans with a rich aroma into the grinder......

Watching Joseph grind coffee beans and brew coffee by himself in the small bar, Gu Chen experienced for the first time the pragmatic attitude of senior Western government officials, which is not only reflected in work, but also in the details of life. And this also reflects the values of the West from the side, they don't need form, they don't need vanity, they don't need a virtual thing, they care about practical interests.

This can be said to be the complete opposite of the Orientals, and the most striking comparison is that hundreds of years ago, Zheng He sailed to the West and Europe during the Age of Discovery. The Chinese emperor sent Zheng He to the West seven times, and every place he went to read the letter of the Ming Emperor, and sent a large number of gold, silver and jewelry to show the national prestige, to put it bluntly, it was to show the majesty and face of the Celestial Empire, and did not bring back any substantial benefits, and the treasury was empty, and finally had to stop ocean activities. Decades later, in Europe, thousands of miles away from the Ming Dynasty, the Italian Columbus led three ships that could not be compared with Zheng He's fleet to appear in the Americas 6, opening the Age of Discovery.

Unlike the Ming Dynasty, the Europeans did not bring gold, silver and jewelry, but killed, plundered and colonized the sea, and over the centuries the Europeans plundered countless wealth from their current Great 6, establishing the West's dominance in the world economy, politics and culture.

After a while, a cup of steaming and fragrant coffee was placed in front of Gu Chen, Gu Chen hurriedly said thank you, and then took a sip of coffee: "Very authentic Cuban Amber, let Mr. Jones bother, to be honest, I like coffee, but I rarely make my own coffee." ”

"It's normal, and so are a lot of my friends, but it's a pleasure for me to make coffee." Joseph sat down opposite Gu Chen, holding coffee in his hand, and said casually: "I heard that after leaving Canada, Mr. Gu's destination is the United Kingdom?" ”

Gu Chen smiled slightly and said, "That's right, there are some things that I need to deal with on the British side, and maybe there are some things to discuss with Margaret Thatcher." ”

Consult with Margaret Thatcher? Could it be that there is going to be some big move? Joseph secretly guessed in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he said: "Last year, Mr. Gu invested in a large number of infrastructure projects when he was in the UK, I wonder if he is interested in investing in Canada as well?" ”

The construction of infrastructure is known to be the most expensive to occupy, but a country wants to develop without infrastructure construction, which will undoubtedly occupy a large amount of government financial expenditure, so in many countries, especially in the western countries, tap water, highways, bridges, power grids and other infrastructure projects are basically contracted by private individuals, and the government only plays the role of supervision and regulation, which not only saves the government's financial expenditure, can use the excess finance to the place where it is more needed, but also can avoid monopoly and keep the market alive.

Obviously, the Canadian government is planning to treat Gu Chen as the wronged leader, but unfortunately Gu Chen is not so stupid: "Actually, I am quite interested in Canada's aviation industry." I heard that Bombardier Aerospace has just recently acquired Havilland, a subsidiary of Boeing in Canada, so it can be seen that Bombardier Aerospace has a lot of ambitions, and I am interested in buying Bombardier Aerospace, I wonder what Mr. Jones thinks? ”

Aviation enterprises belong to the core of industry in any country, and they are typical strategic enterprises, and the management of such enterprises must be much stricter, and it is impossible to let them be acquired by foreign companies or individuals. However, Canada's aviation industry can only be regarded as average in the entire Western world, and if Gu Chen really invests a large amount of money in Canada's aviation industry, it should be more beneficial than disadvantageous for Canada's aviation industry.

In an instant, many thoughts passed through Joseph's mind, and he quickly made a decision: "I personally have no objection, but you know, the aviation industry is a relatively sensitive industry, and I need to discuss this issue with Mr. Prime Minister." Moreover, Bombardier Aerospace is a private company, even if the government gives the green light, Mr. Gu still needs to get Morse if he wants to buy it? Mr. Bombardier's agreement.
