Chapter 1027 White-hot bidding
Sitting in the auction hall, Chen Ruoling said to Yang Fei: "What we are going to take is the No. 5 oil block. This is the waters with oil reserves that have been explored."
Yang Fei said: "I guess there is no mistake in the blocks you can like."
Chen Ruoling said: "The starting price is 100 million US dollars, and every time you raise a bid, you will get an additional price of one million US dollars."
"Normally, what is the transaction price of a block like this?" Yang Fei asked.
"160 million, up to 200 million. There are no more than 200 million oil blocks."
"Is that true? Two hundred million US dollars, that's 1.6 billion RMB. The funds we raised in the early stage were only 1 billion, which was obviously less."
"Funds are not a problem. How much money is sold, and then the shares will be calculated according to proportion. One billion yuan of funds is definitely not enough."
While speaking, the No. 5 oil block officially started auction.
Yang Fei paid attention to it and there were not many people coming to the scene.
In fact, there are only so many international companies that have the ability to come to Africa to exploit oil fields, including European and American oil companies.
In addition, oil companies in South Korea and India have also entered Africa to make gold.
The starting price of 100 million yuan is increased by one million yuan, and the settlement currency is US dollars.
Yang Fei, Chen Shaohua and others were all very calm and allowed others to bid.
There were more than a dozen companies bidding on the spot.
The auction price soon reached US$150 million.
Chen Shaohua was very calm and never raised his sign.
Soon, the price reached 165 million.
There are obviously fewer people holding signs.
Only two European and American companies still hold signs.
"180 million!" The price was finally about to reach the top.
No one bids again.
It seems that everyone has a good understanding of this oil block, so it can only give such a high price.
Just when everyone thought that the deal was going to be completed for 180 million, Chen Shaohua raised the sign.
The representative of the European oil company was a fat white man, afraid of being over 300 pounds! He looked at Chen Shaohua, shrugged his shoulders coldly, and then continued to raise his sign.
The white fat man and Chen Shaohua rose and fell one after another. The tug-of-war between the two quickly raised the price to 190 million.
There was a heated discussion on the scene.
Yang Fei vaguely heard someone talking in English, saying where Asians came from? Why break the rules!
I heard someone say that this is not Korean, nor Indian, but mostly Chinese.
Everyone was incredible about the Chinese and Europeans bidding for oil fields.
Almost all the oil resources in the Gulf of Guinea are monopolized by Europeans and Americans.
Chinese rarely get involved here.
Because many of the African countries here are pro-American.
Sudan was also pro-American in the past.
In 1975, several Occupy Oil companies including Chevron Company in the United States successively obtained oil exploration and mining concessions in Sudan, earning a large amount of oil revenue.
Many people are familiar with the grudges between the United States and Sudan. It is precisely because of the abstention of the United States that it gives our country the opportunity to stick to it, and thus has obtained 40% of the rights to exploit oil resources in Sudan countries.
The oil-producing power Sudan was too poor to afford to eat, and to a large extent, it blamed the US sanctions. The cause of the sanctions was that after the outbreak of the Sudan civil war, three employees of the American Chevron Company were killed by guerrillas. The company evacuated Sudan in an all-out manner. The United States immediately launched international sanctions against Sudan for twenty years.
The divided north and south Sudan are among the poorest and least developed countries. According to statistics, about 90% of the population in South Sudan's average daily income is less than US$1, half of the population is struggling under the line of food and clothing, and the infrastructure is also very backward.
The once Pulitzer Prize-winning photography work "The Hungry Sultan" shows a starving Sultan girl about to be hunted by a vulture, which is very shocking.
It can be seen from this that the exploitation of capitalists is fully revealed.
In addition to Sudan, the Gulf of Guinea is also very abundant in oil production.
However, the resources here are basically monopolized by Europeans and Americans.
Today, I suddenly saw a Chinese participating in the bidding for oil blocks. Europeans and Americans found it incredible, and some even began to insult them angryly.
The price of Block 5 was raised to 200 million by Chen Shaohua!
Previously, the auction price of all oil blocks in this area did not exceed 200 million!
When Chen Shaohua raised the sign again, the fat white man obviously hesitated.
If you continue bidding, there is really no need!
The Gulf of Guinea is rich in oil resources, with more than 200 million blocks all raising prices.
However, Westerners look down on Easterners from the bottom of their hearts.
There is a famous metaphor that the rich in the West would rather pour milk into the ditch than leave it to the poor.
The fat white man obviously thought so, and would rather buy this oil block at a high price than let the Chinese get in the foot even if they don’t make money!
So, after a little hesitation, the fat white man raised his sign again.
You chase each other and refuse to give in!
The price of the No. 5 oil block was raised by 300 million US dollars!
Yang Fei looked at the calm Chen Shaohua and thought to himself that this person is really courageous!
When the price exceeded 350 million, the whole audience was in full bloom!
At the normal price, 350 million is enough to buy two identical oil blocks!
Yang Fei knew that whether it was Chen Shaohua or Fatty, he was competing for not only an oil block, but also competing for the spirit of the heart!
You don't want me to get it, I insist on getting it!
You want to take it down, but I insist on obstructing you!
Just like a gambler, when his blood is boiling, his husband is already rational. Even if he bet on everything, he just wants to win!
After the fat white man raised the sign again, Yang Fei suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Chen Shaohua's right wrist with the sign.
"What are you doing?" Chen Shaohua shouted in a deep voice, "Let go!"
Yang Fei said: "Don't bid anymore! Let's give up!"
"Why are we giving up?" Chen Shaohua was indeed on fire, "Even if it reaches 400 million US dollars, I will take it down!"
Yang Fei said: "We can get two blocks for this price! It's obviously not worth it."
"Then he should give up first!" Chen Shaohua said, "I must beat him!"
"Young Master Hua! We are businessmen, what do businessmen pay attention to? You don't know, right? The winning or losing momentarily doesn't mean anything!"
"Haha, if you are afraid that you can't afford it, you will take less shares! I will take them down too!"
Yang Fei said: "Young Master Hua, listen to me, let's give up this block and compete for the next block! We will definitely succeed!"
"Why do you say that?" Chen Shaohua said, "It's too late, I want to raise the sign!"
Yang Fei held his wrist tightly and refused to let him hold up the sign.
Chen Ruoling said: "Brother, I believe Yang Fei. His judgment will not be wrong."
At this moment, the auctioneer announced that Fatty White successfully won the No. 5 oil block for US$351 million.
The fat white man proudly pointed out his middle finger at Chen Shaohua.
Chen Shaohua said hatefully: "Made, let that fat man succeed! Yang Fei, are you trashing? Why are you helping them?"
Yang Fei said in a deep voice: "Only with giving up can you gain! Young Master Hua, believe me, I will definitely take it down Block No. 6! And the price will definitely not be too high!"
"Are you so confident?"
"I believe in my own heart!"
"Okay, I believe you again. If you can't get it, we will break up with each other!"
Chapter completed!
