Centennial Family, Rising From Hong Kong Island

"Butterfly Bay Company 100 million Hong Kong dollars~"

"Wharf Company 110 million~"

...

"Butterfly Bay Company 230 million for the first time~"

"Twenty-thirty million for the second time~"

"230 million for the third time~"

"make a deal!"

The auctioneer made a final decision, and the commercial building of Sun Hungtu Real Estate Company on Central Avenue was bought by Butterfly Bay for 180 million yuan.

It's a huge profit!

Judging from the current popularity of land prices on Hong Kong Island and the future appreciation space of commercial buildings, the estimated value of the commercial building should be around 500 million.

But now, it was taken down by Butterfly Bay for less than half of the price, which could make Xinhongtu vomit blood.

And this is not an exception.

In fact, the asset liquidation auction house held by the bank is a feast for the division of Xinhongtu.

Butterfly Bay, Cheung Kong Industrial and other companies took knives and forks, and bit by bit they divided up the real estate giant Xinhongtu.

Among them, Butterfly Bay Real Estate Company has won the most land and obtained the greatest benefits.

Su Shaoze could have swallowed most of Xinhongtu's assets if he wanted to, but Su Shaoze wouldn't do it unless he had to.

He is very clear about the principle of sharing interests, and blindly eating alone will only bring himself into a disadvantageous situation.

You can share on the premise of ensuring your own interests.

Although in the real estate industry, Butterfly Bay and Cheung Kong Holdings, Wharf and other large companies are competitors.

But in the face of British-owned enterprises and international consortia outside Hong Kong Island, Su Shaoze, Bao Chuanwang and Li Chaoren are allies.

Su Shaoze must establish a Hong Kong Island consortium so that he has the strength to compete with international consortia.

An auction ended quickly, and Sun Hung Tu's main assets were acquired by companies such as Butterfly Bay at extremely low prices.

At this time, Xinhongtu, except for one name, only had a bunch of broken real estate with little value.

Everyone knows that when Sun Hung Ho is over, there will be no five major real estate companies on Hong Kong Island in the future!

Only four left!

It is Butterfly Bay, Wharf, Cheung Kong and New World that are controlled by the four major families!

This has also further consolidated the control of the four major families over the economy of Hong Kong Island.

While the four major real estate companies were enjoying this gluttonous feast, Su Shaoze welcomed a special visitor.

The Galactic Empire Building, which symbolizes the power center of the Galactic Empire, in Su Shaoze's office, Su Shaoze in a suit is sitting on the sofa with a calm expression.

On the opposite side of him, sitting is a white-skinned ghost.

He looks in his thirties, with dark yellow hair, a high nose bridge, blue eyes, a neat suit, and a faint smile on his face.

Holding the coffee in one hand, and stirring gently with the silver spoon in the other.

Exactly like an aristocratic gentleman!

"Mr. David, I wonder if this Blue Mountain coffee suits your taste?" Su Shaoze took a sip of coffee, put it on the table, and said with a faint smile.

He still likes to drink tea, and he is not used to drinking this stuff, but since the person here is a ghost, and he is also a ghost with a very simple identity, Su Shaoze can't be rude.

"It's not bad, but the way of brewing coffee is not enough. Mr. Su, your secretary needs some good training." David nodded lightly after taking a sip of coffee.

He still speaks English. Fortunately, in the past few years since he came to Hong Kong Island, Su Shaoze has often communicated with ghosts who can't survive. Coupled with the foundation of his previous life, his current English level is not bad.

"My secretary will be sad to hear Mr. David's comments~" Su Shaoze said.

David shrugged lightly, obviously these ghosts don't know what subtlety is.

A week ago, Su Shaoze received a letter from Mobil. David Rockefeller, Vice President of Mobil Oil, was going to visit Mr. Su Shaoze, Chairman of Galaxy Group.

As for the purpose, Su Shaoze can roughly guess it!

US float oil is the largest oil company in the United States and the largest oil company in the world. It has only oil in the intersection with the Galaxy Group.

The other party must have come for the oil in the Southeast Asia.

However, what really surprised Su Shaoze was the surname and first name of the vice president of MIFRO.

Rockefeller!

One of the most mysterious and wealthy families in the United States started out with the oil industry in the 1960s.

The founding Standard Oil once had a monopoly on 90 percent of U.S. oil production.

Even after the Standard Company was split into 37 oil companies, companies such as Mobil and Chevron still firmly occupy the position of the top ten oil companies in the United States.

If the Rockefeller family is of great significance to the U.S. oil industry, then the Rockefeller consortium it created has unimaginable influence on the entire U.S. economy.

It is also the role of the behind-the-scenes controller of the United States with the Morgan consortium and the First Citibank consortium.

Compared with the Rockefeller Consortium, the current Galaxy Group is still far behind.

As for the man from Rockefeller in front of him, if Su Shaoze remembers correctly, after the new century, the new generation head of the Rockefeller family seems to be called David Rockefeller! Big.

Chapter 421 Nanyang Petroleum Exploration Rights 【Seeking flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】

Because of antitrust laws, the Rockefeller family appears to have lost control of companies such as US Float Oil, many of which are owned by other consortia.

But Rockefeller's influence is still not easy to eliminate.

Even after entering the new century, Rockefeller and other three major eastern consortiums still firmly control the U.S. economy and exert strong influence on the political arena.

David Rockefeller, who became the vice president of Mobil Oil at the age of 30, is from the Rockefeller family.

And this is just a step in David's accumulation of qualifications.

Perhaps he himself would not have thought that in the future, he will occupy an increasingly important position in the family, and eventually he will become the head of a new generation.

David Rockefeller, definitely a very capable man!

And he did not come to Su Shaoze on behalf of the Rockefeller family, but on behalf of the US float oil company.

The purpose is really for the oil of the South Seas!

"I have to admire Mr. Su's vision. He bought a large number of uninhabited deserted islands in the South China Sea a long time ago, as well as oil exploration rights in the nearby waters."

"And no one thought that the oil reserves on the seabed of the South China Sea would be so rich."

"I heard that the Hong Kong Island Oil Company has discovered another large oil field on the seabed of the South China Sea?"

David Rockefeller quickly entered the topic of conversation with Su Shaoze, oil!

This is something that can make the whole world tense, and I don't know how many wars it has caused.

Before the 1980s, the world's oil centers were in West Asia and North Africa, but after the 1980s, Hong Kong Island Oil Company, a subsidiary of the Galaxy Group, bought a large number of uninhabited deserted islands in the South China Sea and conducted oil exploration on the seabed. .

The attention of many international oil giants has also shifted to the South China Sea, and they are surprised to find that the oil reserves on the seabed of the South China Sea are so amazing.

But unfortunately, most of the oil fields in these places in Nanyang have already been taken down.

Island Oil Company!

An oil company from the Hong Kong Island consortium, behind it is the Galaxy Group of Hong Kong Island!

And that's what David Rockefeller came to the Galaxy Group for.

Oil exploration rights in the South Seas.

But Su Shaoze gently shook his head and smiled: "It was purely a willful move back then, with gambling elements. I spent a lot of money to buy those uninhabited deserted islands, which also caused my funds to be in trouble for a time."

"Fortunately, I seem to have made the right bet. There are a lot of oil reserves under the Nanyang Sea," Su Shaoze said.

How many oil reserves are there in Southeast Asia?

According to the estimated data of later surveys, the oil reserves in the South China Sea are enough to account for 10% of the world's oil reserves.

This is already a very amazing data, and it is a huge cake.

Although the Hong Kong Island Oil Company is still an empty shelf, it has not produced a barrel of oil, but it is sitting on a golden mountain.

"Mr. Su's vision is not only amazing, but his luck is also amazing." David Rockefeller said with admiration.

The thirty-year-old Rockefeller is also a standard businessman, and he is enough to give up his Rockefeller pride in the face of interests.

The voice changed and he said, "I wonder if Mr. Su has any plans to sell some of the Nanyang oil exploration rights?"

Selling oil rights?

Su Shaoze was stupid to sell the mining rights, it was a golden mountain.

And more importantly, mastering the right to extract oil is equivalent to mastering the right to speak.

This black gold is the blood of the economic development of all countries.

How much money can be made by relying on oil is second, and the most important thing is to master this strategic resource, Su Shaoze will greatly increase his right to speak when facing certain forces.

Therefore, it is impossible to sell.

"Hehe, Mr. David is joking? There is no doubt about the importance of oil to the whole world."

"The value of this black gold is inestimable. In order to develop the oil resources in the South China Sea, our Galaxy Group specially established the Hong Kong Island Oil Company, and we have done a lot of preparations."

"So, the oil exploration rights in Nanyang are not for sale to our group." Su Shaoze said calmly.

Although in general business negotiations, there are not-for-sale products just because the other party doesn't offer enough prices.

However, Su Shaoze will never let go of Nanyang Petroleum's exploitation rights easily.

As for Su Shaoze's not-for-sale item, David Rockefeller just nodded and smiled lightly. He didn't take it seriously. Instead, he said:

"Mr. Su, the world's oil industry has developed for more than a hundred years, and it has been more than ten years since the discovery of submarine oil, but so far, few people have been able to utilize the submarine oil resources."

"Mr. Su, do you know why?" David said quietly.

And Su Shaoze knew what he wanted to say, nodded lightly and said with a smile: "It's nothing more than a question of technology and cost."

"Yes, it's technology and cost." David said immediately.

It is much more technically difficult than underground oil to drill an oil well on the bottom of the sea hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters to extract oil from deeper depths.

It is also affected by factors such as storms, waves, and deep-sea currents.

Because of this, even if oil 5.9 is successfully extracted, the time and labor costs it takes are far higher than land oil.

Therefore, before this, few people paid attention to the oil under the sea.

But it is different now. With the crazy rise of international oil prices, submarine oil will also have greater profit margins.

More people put their eyes on this piece, and the US float is by no means the last.

"We at Mobil Oil have some of the most advanced drilling technology in the world and have done a lot of research and development on subsea oil extraction."

"On the other hand, Mr. Su, your Hong Kong Island Oil Company~"

"Excuse my bluntness, that can't be called an oil company at all, but just a lord sitting on top of an oil field."

"So~".

Chapter 422 Give Rockefeller a bright muscle 【Seeking flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】

Therefore, the oil fields in Nanyang are completely wasted in the hands of Hong Kong Island Oil Company.

The current Hong Kong Island Oil Company is an empty shelf. It has money but no technology, no channels and no one. So far, it has not produced a barrel of oil.

The work done before is all about surveying and estimating how much oil resources are contained in the deep seabed of the South China Sea.

But what's next?

How does the Hong Kong Island Oil Company get the oil out of the seabed?

The difficulty is not generally large, and the cost is also high.

Because Hong Kong Island Oil Company is just a name, it has no experience and technology in oil extraction at all, and it will take at least ten years or more to develop.

"So, Mr. Su might as well sell the oil fields in the South China Sea to us, and the US Float Oil Company will give Mr. Su a suitable price." David Rockefeller said.
