Chapter 960 The Audacious Oil Company (Second update, please subscribe)
Looking at the car going away, Herman’s expression became more and more solemn. Standing by the steps, he did not get in the car immediately. , but stood there smoking a cigar.
At the same time, the previous conversation with Chen Dehua came to his mind again.
"This...the problem is a bit serious!"
Although Herman and Frank had reached a consensus long ago, he still showed an incomprehensible look.
Herman said.
“Although politics is very important, I think the agreement is sacred and should be guaranteed! If someone breaks the agreement, the country should take strong measures to protect the interests of enterprises.”
Thoughts Think, he said again.
“And didn’t General Li say that the government will use all means to ensure the safety of our overseas investments, which involves the national security of Nanyang.”
This is exactly what they and Aramco have The fundamental reason for the oil agreement - Aramco also hopes that Nanyang will intervene militarily when necessary.
Nanyang Petroleum Company also needs military intervention.
“That’s us, and we are not equal to the West.”
Chen Dehua’s explanation voice rang in Herman’s ears again.
“And even if we intervene in the future, we still need to consider many issues. After all, we have passed the era of direct military intervention and it is the international political form before the war. The current international political environment is different from the past. It is the United States and the Soviet Union that are confronting each other, and all countries must take sides. Even the United States cannot risk forcing them to the Soviet Union to protect the interests of oil companies, and we will definitely need to consider many external influences at that time. It is impossible to isolate yourself from the Western world for oil!"
Chen Dehua shrugged helplessly and said.
"After all, times have changed!"
"Times... times have changed, but people have not changed, and business interests must always be protected."
Herman He took a long puff of his cigar and said to himself.
“Business interests always need to be protected, business rules always need to be defended, and other countries cannot be allowed to tear up agreements just like this. If this is the case, then the contract still needs to be abided by. "
While Herman was thinking this, two guests walked out of the steps of the club and they were joking with each other on the steps of the club. The concierge called them a taxi.
And Herman just stood on the steps, smoking his cigar silently.
“There is something to say at the end,”
Chen Dehua’s reminder before leaving came to Herman’s mind again.
“Although the actions of the Free Officers have been quelled. However, the situation in Saudi Arabia is not as calm as it seems on the surface. I can’t say too much, but you must be prepared for this. After all, now The world is different from yesterday.”
Everyone is saying that the world is different from yesterday. It seems that in everyone's eyes, commercial agreements do not need to be observed, and those countries can tear them up at will.
Who cares about the sanctity of business agreements?
No country will care!
It seems that for them, only politics is the most important, for the sake of politics. The company's interests are expendable. Business rules can also be broken.
Is this the result of changing times?
Herman's brows frowned even more tightly, and his expression became more solemn.
"It seems that to everyone, the company's interests are not important at all. This is how the times have changed."
The corners of Herman's mouth rose, and his face was full of sarcasm.
“Different yesterday, is this a different yesterday?”
Recalling the information he got from Chen Dehua during the previous meal, after a long time, Herman seemed to have made up his mind. Yes, he said to himself.
“Well, we must not delay any longer. We must take action immediately. No matter what, we must completely control the oil field in the hands of the company!”
Then, after he got into the car, he sat in the back seat and leaned his body against the backrest. A thought came to Herman's mind involuntarily - why should he give oil that he discovered by his own skills to others?
What does return mean?
Obviously it’s time to grab it!
It is absolutely impossible for those guys riding camels to steal the wealth belonging to the Nanyang people. If they do, break their dog paws!
If they think the world has changed, then use hard facts to tell them that the world has never changed and is still the same as before.
It's still the jungle of the jungle, it's still naked.
"The world has never changed, it's just a different way." Just when this thought became stronger and stronger in Herman's heart, he had already arrived home. Just when he was about to take a shower and rest, he suddenly received a phone call.
The call came from the official residence, not someone else.
It was Li Yian himself, and the voice on the other end of the phone was simple - "Herman, come to the official residence."
So, Herman immediately took a car to the official residence and entered the study that countless people yearned for.
Although Herman is not a frequent visitor to this study, he can enter here as long as he wants. After all, he is the general manager of Nanyang Petroleum Company, and the largest shareholder of Nanyang Petroleum Company is the person in front of him. Bit.
“Sit!”
After Herman entered the office, Li Yian said without raising his head.
“Your Excellency.”
"Yemen!"
After reviewing the report in front of him, Li Yian looked directly at Herman and asked.
"Oil companies are very powerful now. They have actually started planning to invade a country. Come on, tell me what you think!"
To be honest, when I saw that report, Li Yian Immediately, my mother was stunned.
Hey guys, Nanyang Petroleum Company actually cooperates secretly with Aramco to train troops for Yemen through the "Black Knight Company" and even helps them improve their equipment. This kind of thing is simply incredible.
Maybe outsiders don't know what they think, but Li Yian knows why they do it, for oil.
It was precisely because of such surprise that he personally called Herman and asked him to come here, mainly because he wanted to hear his explanation.
After all, Li Yian is also very interested in this kind of thing.
"Oil! Your Excellency!"
Taking a deep breath, Herman said.
"We need those oil fields and we need to ensure that the profits from the oil fields, at least the vast majority of the profits, belong to the company and are not snatched away by guys riding camels with a piece of paper. This is exactly what we want to do."
Faced with your inquiry, Herman did not hide anything. In fact, he knew that this matter could not be hidden. After all, a company like "Black Knight" must have an intelligence background, and the matter would be exposed sooner or later.
The only problem is... it was exposed too early. In this case, there is only one option - to convince your Excellency,
"Your Excellency, the territory between Yemen and Saudi Arabia is now The conflict is our best opportunity. Through an American company, we can make Yemen believe that their actions will be acquiesced by Washington. Of course, this is planned by the American and Afghan oil companies. At the same time, our people are still It will help members of the "Free Officers Movement" to plan their internal uprising, thereby creating turmoil within Saudi Arabia. This plan has already begun to be implemented..."
Listening to Herman's explanation, Li Yian's brows furrowed. In a group, he really didn't expect...the oil company would be so bold!
For their profits, they actually want to destroy a country!
This...it seems that United Fruit Company is almost the same company!
What a bold bunch of guys!
"Free Officer Movement?"
Li Yi'an asked rhetorically.
"Don't you know what the nature of that organization is? They will never allow you to control the oil fields. If the king will leave you some scraps, if it is the Free Officers Organization, they will not even leave you any leftovers. A mouthful of soup, Egypt, Nasser of Egypt will prove this!"
Li Yian is reminding them that not everyone is a partner. Even if you want to cooperate, you should choose some people to cooperate with that are easy to control.
Cooperating with a group of so-called nationalists is simply shooting yourself in the foot.
In the end, oil companies are likely to face a situation where they are trying to get nothing out of a basket.
“Of course we know,”
Hearing His Excellency’s reminder, Herman explained.
“So, our purpose is not to create a winner, but to...”
