The blue Bentley drove in the middle of the night in the early winter of the city of Beijing. Occasionally, lights are reflected in the car.

In the back of the car, Lu Jing was pensive, his eyes bright. During the dinner just now, Zhao Houtang revealed in his words that in the competition between the eldest brother and Yang Xiuwu, the cadres in Jiangnan would support the eldest brother. That's a lot of fun. Come to think of it, if the people of the Yang family heard this, they were afraid that they would jump to their feet.

The music rings on the phone. Lu Jing answered Xie Jinwen's call and politely declined Xie Jinwen's invitation to invite him to Datang Yujing. Put down the phone, pondered, and dialed Song Yuqi's mobile phone. Ye Yan's lazy and charming voice came from the mobile phone, "Lu Jing, Yuqi is taking a bath." Wait a minute, I'll give her the phone. ”

Lu Jing smiled softly: "Xiaoyan, then let's talk first." During this time, Ye Yan came to the capital and lived in Yanhu Homestead. Fang Qin also returned to the capital last week. Yesterday at noon, we had dinner together.

"Okay." Ye Yan said with a smile. chatted with Ye Yan, and after more than ten minutes, Song Yuqi's voice came from the phone, "Lu Jing, what's the matter?" Call me so late. "It's ten o'clock in the evening.

Lu Jingdao: "Yuqi, you help me make an appointment with Chen Jiulin, I plan to meet him." After getting Chen Jiulin's business card from his eldest brother, Chen Jiulin did not call him, but went back to Singapore to deal with the affairs of Siyou's Singapore branch.

On October 28, the Singapore branch of Siyou Oil was forced to partially liquidate its position at the long-standing high price of $55.43 of WTI light oil. As a result, the actual loss of the Singapore branch of the four oil companies continued to expand. The cumulative actual losses amounted to $381 million.

From Zhao Houtang's words tonight, Lu Jing has confirmed that the eldest brother is about to be in charge of the domestic energy field. Then, he needs to go to the rescue of the Singapore branch of Siyou immediately.

The Singapore branch of Si Oil has a monopoly on 100% of the domestic share of imported jet fuel. If. If the Singapore branch of Siyou falls, then domestic aviation fuel imports will be controlled by foreign forces. This is not good news for the incoming big brother.

Song Yuqi said gently: "Okay." I'll contact Chen Jiulin. Are you home now? "She knows about Lu Jing going to the banquet at night.

Lu Jing looked at the landmark building on the side of the road and said, "It's going to take half an hour." Rest early, too. Sister Qin, Xiaoyan, and Xiaoli, you can speak for me on your behalf. ”

Song Yuqi smiled: "Lu Jing." Sister Qin, Ye Yan, and Xiaoli are all by my side, I turn on the mobile phone on speakerphone, you say it loudly. ”

Lu Jing smiled and scratched his head.

…

…

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the entrance of Xianghe Kindergarten in Hudong District was full of parents who came to pick up the children from work. Under the poplar tree diagonally opposite the entrance of the kindergarten listened to a black Audi A6.

In the car, Lu Jing sighed with a smile: "There are so many people." Brother Zhan, do you come to pick up Deyou every day? "Zhan Deyou, the son of Zhan Ge'er, is four years old this year. Enrolled in Xianghe Kindergarten.

Zhan Zhengfang smoked a cigarette and said, "How can it be every day." It's usually you Sister Le who comes. I've been taking a break lately, so I'm coming over and picking up this stinky boy. "There is a doting in the words that is hard to hide.

Zhan Zhengfang smiled and said: "Xiaojing, the oil road in Myanmar has been opened, and Brother Jiang's position should indeed be moved." It is estimated that the first barrel of oil from Sushan Port arrived in Ningxi. It should be time for Brother Jiang to be promoted to the next level. ”

Lu Jing nodded with a smile and said, "Results will be seen within a year." It should be settled in two or three years. "Brother Zhan has his news channels in the capital. I know the news that the eldest brother is about to become the deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission.

Zhan Zhengfang laughed and said, "That's good." Oh, Governor Li over there in Ningxi can control the situation, right? "It is said that Li Minghu's speech in Ningxi is not particularly weighty.

Lu Jing said with a smile: "Last week, Mayor Duan, who was working against Governor Li from Xishan City, has been transferred. The new mayor is Lingdongtai City Mayor Wen Guangyao. ”

Zhan Zhengfang smiled, and some understood. I think also, if Li Minghu wants to seize this opportunity, he must make a move to show his control.

Laughing and talking. Lu Jing's phone rang. Lu Jing connected the phone, and Qin Chengwen's laughter came from inside, "Lu Jing, do you have time at night?" Coming to Jianan for a meal? It's been a long time since we've been together. ”

Jianan Club is one of the four major clubs in Beijing. Qin Chengwen is the founder of the Jianan Club. Lu Jingxin said, when did I have this friendship with you? After a while, he said, "Okay." Qin Shao. What kind of food would you like to entertain me? ”

Qin Chengwen could hear Lu Jing's dissatisfaction, but Lu Jing could just agree to come. Once Lu Jing's eldest brother stood out in the competition with Yang Xiuwu, Lu Jing's status was much higher than him. smiled: "There is no sense of expectation when good things are spoken." I'm waiting for you in Jianan in the evening. ”

Hung up the phone. Lu Jing shrugged his shoulders and said, "Another person who shocked my brother and turned around." ”

Zhan Zhengfang smiled and patted Lu Jing's shoulder. In the matter of Myanmar's oil road, Lu Jing has at least 50% credit. The situation in Myanmar was changed by Lu Jing. Now in the capital, it is said that the Lu family is really so reliable. Brothers work together, and their profits are gold.

At this time, the school bell rings with a jingle bell.

…

…

Singapore.

In the top-floor office of the Singapore branch of the Fourth Petroleum Company, the pot-bellied Chen Jiulin looked at the rising international original futures prices on the computer screen, and his heart tightened. The beating number seemed to be like a sledgehammer smashing into his heart. If the price of oil rises again, the company will have to go bankrupt.

Kang Guangxi, assistant to the general manager, sighed and persuaded: "Mr. Chen, do you want to rest?" We're about to leave for the capital. If Mr. Luk is willing to support, we may not be able to tide over the difficulties. ”

A wry smile appeared on Chen Jiulin's fat face, "Guangxi, don't comfort me." The $381 million black hole, Lu Jing will definitely not take over. He could have started from scratch. When we first started, it was $200,000. ”

He already had a faint premonition in his heart that the loss in the trading of oil futures this time was very likely to be a game made by Goldman Sachs. And his end is very likely to face imprisonment by the Singapore government.

Kang Guangxi sighed, and he was not optimistic about this trip to the capital. It is impossible for Lu Jing to be a Lei Feng and invest in a company that actually loses nearly $400 million. And the company continues to lose money. No decision-maker can make such a decision.

But Kang Guangxi still said: "Mr. Chen, we have asked to see Mr. Lu several times before, but the day before yesterday, Assistant Song took the initiative to call, maybe Mr. Lu's mind has changed." ”

"Who knows. Maybe there's something else to talk about. Chen Jiulin said blankly, "Mr. Nan from the headquarters is still here?" "The liquidation on October 28 was a decision made by Mr. Nan.

Kang Guangxi nodded, and then persuaded: "Mr. Chen, call the members of the risk management committee for a meeting." This time in the capital, no matter what the result is, no matter how we guess, we still have to make a final effort. ”

Mr. Chen no longer has the spirit of the past. He could only persuade Mr. Chen to do something. This is better than Mr. Chen's cranky thinking.

At the end of October, Mr. Chen returned to the capital, cried in front of the boss of the headquarters, and asked for support from the headquarters. Mr. Chen, who was named Asia's business leader in 2003, cried bitterly in the conference room, begging the CEOs to save the Singapore branch.

How bleak it is. Although in the end, headquarters promised a loan of $250 million. But in the face of rising oil prices, this cannot save the Singapore branch. The net worth of the Singapore branch of the Fourth Oil Company is only $150 million.

Kang Guangxi had a helpless sigh in his heart.

Chen Jiulin snorted and said, "You ask Xiao Zhong to notify Gerald Rig, Abdala Kama, Liu and Xu to come over for a meeting." ”

"Okay, Mr. Chen." Kang Guangxi agreed, walked out of the office, and gently closed the door. If the company goes bankrupt, Mr. Chen will definitely bear legal responsibility. What about yourself? I'm afraid I'm going to go in too. Privately, he was desperate too.

…

…

In the office of Jinghua R&D Building, Lu Jing had just finished the call with Zhou Fusheng when he heard the sound of Song Yuqi's high heels stepping on the floor, from far to near. A moment later, Song Yuqi led Chen Jiulin in.

After the guests sat down on the hospitality sofa, Lu Jing smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, this is the third time we have met. ”

The first time we met was in the elevator of the Financial Plaza Building in Hong Kong. Chen Jiulin's attendant Xiao Zhong stared at Ziqi.

The second time they met was in the Yellow Sea, in the hall of the Deep Blue Yacht Club, and he just happened to see Cui Han come out.

Chen Jiulin took a deep breath, collected his mood, and said in a low voice, "Yes, Mr. Lu." ”

The first time he saw Lu Jing, he was very reserved and thought that he was a young talent. When he saw Lu Jing for the second time, he had already overestimated Lu Jing's identity as much as possible, but he didn't expect that Lu Jing was Hehua's talker. This is the third time he has met Lu Jing, and he is only left with humility in his heart.

For a person who is about to become a prisoner, he can't help but be humble when he sees Hehua's principal again. If it was just embarrassing, he wouldn't have come to see Lu Jing today. From the bottom of his heart, he still retains a glimmer of hope. Although, he was not sure in his heart that he would let Lu Jing invest in the Singapore branch of the Fourth Petroleum Company.

It is a well-known thing that Hehua has money. Lu Jing's words can decide his life and death.

Lu Jing smiled, lit a cigarette, pushed the cigarette case in front of Chen Jiulin, and said straight to the point: "I am ready to invest in the Singapore branch of the Fourth Petroleum Company." The Singapore branch controls 100% of domestic jet fuel imports. I won't allow it to go out of business. ”

Chen Jiulin looked at Lu Jing in shock, and then trembled with excitement, "Mr. Lu, is this true?" "He was afraid he had heard it wrong. 400 million US dollars, Lu Jing is ready to drop it like this?

Lu Jing nodded and said, "Smoking." ”

Seeing Lu Jing confirm again, Chen Jiulin trembled, tried to restrain his feelings, and said in a loud voice, "Okay, okay, smoking." Thank you, Mr. Lu. Thank you. "Incoherent.

Picking up the cigarette case from the coffee table, he took out a cigarette with a shaking. There was a soft "pop", and the cigarette case held in his left hand fell to the ground. Chen Jiulin bent down to pick up the cigarette case. "Ahh I couldn't control my feelings anymore, so I squatted on the ground, covered my face with my hands and cried. (To be continued......)
