Chapter 1309: First Encounter

"Don't you know when you see him?" Song Yuqi said softly, resting her delicate head on Lu Jing's shoulder, "I think it should be related to the matter of the Fourth Petroleum Singapore Company." ”

Temasek is Singapore's largest state-owned enterprise. Temasek-Holdings' affiliates account for 13% of Singapore's GDP and 47% of Singapore's stock market capitalisation.

Singapore's Ministry of Finance owns 100% of Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited. As Temasek's executive director, Tsui must have close ties with senior officials in the Singapore government.

"Yes." Lu Jing smiled, and Song Yuqi stayed warm in the sunset for a while, picked up the mobile phone and dialed Mo Xinlan's number.

The engagement between Hehua and Temasek is mainly focused on the wafer business of Jinghua Microchip, the customized machine business of Jinghua Mobile and Singtel, and the competition between PLU Telecom and Singtel in the telecommunications markets in Southeast Asia, South Asia and Australia.

If Xu Yangcheng wants to see Lu Jing, he needs to contact Mo Xinlan, the president of Mo's Group, first.

…

….

In the living room of the Presidential Suite of the Lido Hotel, the luxurious hall is illuminated by intricate lighting, and the soft and precious Italian carpet is very comfortable to step on.

"Mr. Lu, what should I say?" Xu Yangcheng smoked a cigar and smiled helplessly. He knew exactly what the official announcement of Hehua's investment in Fourth Petroleum Singapore would mean. At his level, of course, he will not simply think that Hehua's capital injection is just capital injection.

Goldman Sachs and Mitsui have joined forces to do the game, who can't see it in Singapore now? -- Goldman Sachs' Jierun provided strategic support to deceive Chen Jiulin into continuing to sell short. Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation provided a loan to Chen Jiulin. Mitsui & Co. forced a warehouse.

This is like the quintessence of China - mahjong, a table of four people. Chen Jiulin's upper home, lower home. All opponents are opponents. Chen Jiulin doesn't "lose money", that's weird.

Hehua's injection of capital into the first petroleum Singapore company is a clear competition with Goldman Sachs and Mitsui.

Lu Jing shook the goblet in his hand, the fragrant red wine was shining charmingly under the lamp, "It's just a business deal." ”

Of course, Xu Yangcheng couldn't believe Lu Jing's words, so he cautiously persuaded: "Mr. Lu, the matter of the Fourth Petroleum Singapore Company is a pool of troubled waters. You have to be careful. ”

Temasek's total assets in 2004 were approximately US$40 billion. According to public financial statistics, the total assets of the Hehua consortium have exceeded 100 billion US dollars.

As Temasek's Executive Director and Deputy President, he still has to speak in front of China's speakers, and he can't be casual.

Lu Jing smiled, "Mr. Xu." Thank you for your kindness. You're old friends with Xinlan. Let's get straight to the point! I could hear something in Xu Yangcheng's words.

Seeing that Lu Jing refused so clearly, Xu Yangcheng sighed and said, "That's the case." Mitsui & Co.'s Vice President, Shunsho Muto, would like to meet and talk to you. As a creditor of Fourth Oil Singapore, he hopes that Fourth Oil Singapore will be able to turn its losses into profits. ”

Song Yuqi, who was sitting next to Lu Jing, got up and added red wine to Lu Jing and Xu Yangcheng. Suddenly, it turned out that Xu Yangcheng was here to be a lobbyist for Mitsui & Co. today.

However, Mitsui & Co. only gave the next step to the end of the day before yesterday, and after Hehua made it clear that he would keep the Fourth Petroleum Singapore Company, he said that he would talk. The attitude is respectful. What kind of calculation did Mitsui play?

Lu Jing pondered for a while and decided, "Okay." Then meet and talk. See you tomorrow at the Fourth Oil Singapore building. Turning his head and asking Song Yuqi beside him, "Yuqi, how much does Fourth Oil Singapore owe Mitsui & Co.?" ”

These numbers were all recorded in Song Yuqi's mind, "If I'm not mistaken." Mitsui & Co.'s combined debt is $143.7 million. Another $22 million is owed to Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation. A total of $165.7 million is owed to Mitsui. ”

Most companies operate in debt. For example, many businesses owe money to banks. It's not a surprise that Fourth Oil Singapore owes Mitsui & Co. money.

Lu Jing nodded, knowing in his heart.

Xu Yangcheng sighed in his heart, Song Yuqi's words revealed a lot of information. Obviously, he knows a lot about the structure of the Mitsui Foundation. I think so, Hehua and Mitsui are old rivals. smiled: "That's done." Mr. Luk, Vice President Shunzhao Muto will visit the Fourth Oil Singapore company building tomorrow. I won't disturb your rest. ”

Lu Jing and Xu Yangcheng shook hands. Send him out. When parting at the door, Lu Jing asked with a smile: "Mr. Xu, what do you think Mitsui wants to talk about tomorrow?" ”

Xu Yangcheng's face moved slightly, and after all, he smiled reluctantly, and said, "Mr. Lu, it's hard to say. ”

Lu Jing smiled and nodded.

Seeing Xu Yangcheng enter the special elevator of the presidential suite, watching the elevator door slowly close, Song Yuqi followed Lu Jing to the suite, frowned and said softly: "Lu Jing, this Xu Yangcheng is too slippery." Muto Shunzhao didn't give him a word of speech, how could he come to see you? It's a shame that he and Sister Xinlan are old friends. ”

Song Yuqi is wearing a white shirt today, a short black skirt, and flesh-colored stockings tightly wrapped around her slender legs. The standard OL girl dress up exudes uniform seduction. Lu Jing smiled and patted Song Yuqi's plump buttocks, which was extremely soft, "This shows that Singapore's elites are not optimistic about the results of our fight with Goldman Sachs and Mitsui." ”

He didn't care much about Xu Yangcheng's behavior when he was not optimistic about Hehua. This is a matter of "ex-convictions". At the beginning, Jinghua Microchip was ready to build a wafer factory, but because of the pressure of the Warren consortium, Xu Yangcheng's proposed investment of 200 million US dollars disappeared.

Song Yuqi glanced at Lu Jing lightly, and then said disapprovingly: "Then it's up to them." Lu Jing, how are we going to deal with Mitsui tomorrow? ”

Lu Jing smiled indifferently and said, "It's all torn face." The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. The real battleground is in the international crude oil futures market. I have already called Yang Xingchang and asked him to closely monitor the dynamics of oil futures prices. ”

Mitsui Energy Risk Management Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Mitsui & Co., Ltd., officially issued a default letter to Fourth Oil Singapore on October 26, calling for the payment of margins, and led Fourth Oil Singapore to partially liquidate its position at a long-standing high price of US$55.43 on the 28th. The actual loss was $131 million.

This beam has long been knotted. Tomorrow's talks will certainly not be able to talk about anything substantial. Lu Jing agrees that Shunzhao Muto, who has an opinion on Mitsui & Co., wants to see what Mitsui will say.

As for. The strategy for dealing with the current situation of Fourth Oil Singapore will not change according to Mitsui's attitude.

….

….

Shunsho Muto is a very typical Japanese. Medium build, with a cold expression. After seeing Lu Jing in the spacious and rich conference room on the top floor of the Sleepless City, a habitual smile appeared on his face, "Mr. Lu, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

Lu Jing shook hands with him with a very light expression, "Hello, President Muto." ”

In the structure of Japanese companies, the president is equivalent to the general manager, and the chairman is the chairman. As the vice chairman of Mitsui & Co., Muto Shunzhao has real power in his hands.

Chen Jiulin as the master. Inviting Muto Shunzhao and his party to sit down, his eyes fell on the face of a man in his forties behind Muto Shunzhao, and the anger in his eyes flashed.

Yu Le whispered to Kang Guangxi beside him, "Who is that?" Today, he and Sister Yuqi accompanied Lu Jinglai to participate in this meeting with Mitsui.

Keisuke Miura, senior manager at Mitsui Energy Risk Management. Kang Guangxi's face twitched muscles, and he said hatefully. How could he forget the arrogant attitude of Keisuke Miura who arrogantly sent a letter of default to demand the payment of the deposit.

Keisuke Miura is honest-looking, smiling at Yu Le and showing a mouthful of white teeth.

A beautiful clerk in a black uniform brings warm tea. The atmosphere in the conference room slowly became solemn. Muto Shunzhao put his hands on the crimson tabletop, and said with a solemn expression: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Nan, Mr. Chen." As a creditor of Fourth Oil Singapore, I am concerned about the current financial situation of Fourth Oil Singapore. ”

Shunzhao Muto spoke Japanese, and the round-faced female translator sitting diagonally behind the oval conference table quickly translated into Chinese.

Chen Jiulin immediately said unhappily: "President Muto, does the Fourth Petroleum Singapore Company have any debts owed to Mitsui & Co.?" ”

He added: "Mitsui & Co. is only a creditor of Fourth Petroleum Singapore. Not a shareholder, let alone a member of the board of directors, what qualifications does Mitsui & Co. have to express concern? ”

Then he sneered: "Even if the Fourth Oil Singapore Company is in debt." Doesn't Mitsui & Co. believe in its own debt collection methods? What's the difference between pretending to be worried and being a? Oh, I forgot. You Japanese people have always been like this. ”

Chen Jiulin asked three questions in a row, sneering. Obviously, Mitsui & Co.'s patience has reached its limit.

Kang Guangxi temporarily acted as a Japanese translator today, retelling Chen Jiulin's words very completely, and he was happy in his heart.

Mitsui & Co., Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and Jerun colluded to conspire with $381 million in assets of Fourth Oil Singapore, and now they are running and saying: I am concerned about your financial situation. Who is the initiator? -raised!

The smiles on the faces of several of Muto Shunzhao and his entourage immediately disappeared, and their faces turned cold. Keisuke Miura smiled all over his face, and said neatly:

"Mr. Chen, in October, Fourth Petroleum Singapore did owe Mitsui & Co. money, right? The day after tomorrow on the 18th, another futures contract expires, and we are really concerned about whether Fourth Oil Singapore can make the payment? ”

Kang Guangxi interjected coldly, "It turns out that I came to force the warehouse again!" One-trick pony. ”

Unmoved, Keisuke Miura continued, "At the same time, Fourth Oil Singapore owes a total of US$143.7 million to Mitsui & Co., and given the current financial position of Fourth Oil Singapore, we hope that Fourth Oil Singapore will be able to repay the debt early. Conditions are negotiable. ”

Nan Ran frowned slightly, "This is what you came here for?" ”

Muto Shunzhao nodded lightly, "Mr. Nan, I hope you can understand our concerns. Fourth Oil Singapore is no longer a leading stock on the Singapore stock market. ”

Nan Ran groaned: "Although Fourth Petroleum Singapore has a capital injection of US$200 million from Hehua, we currently do not have sufficient funds to repay the loan in advance. I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint President Muto. ”

Muto Shunzhao bowed slightly, indicating understanding. Then he looked at his entourage. Keisuke Miura immediately said: "Mr. Nan, the Fourth Petroleum Singapore Company can close all the futures contracts in your hand. ”

Show one’s true colors in the end.

Lu Jing understood Mitsui & Co.'s intentions: Mitsui & Co. wanted Fourth Oil Singapore to accept the incident of being pitted. (To be continued......)
