Rebirth of Hong Kong's tycoons, shorting Eagle Sauce

Because a new oil field was discovered in the town, Lindgren's vacation was ruined.

The only thing that comforted him was that Robert, who was overjoyed, allowed him to work with his wife.

On this day, Wang Lei sent Qi Xiaona on the plane back to school.

"Xiaona, I asked someone to buy an apartment in the high-end residential area of ​​the college. You will live off campus in the future.

And these four are professional female bodyguards I hired. They will be responsible for your safety in the future."

"Not really, brother, it's okay for me to live in school."

"Be careful, it's not a big deal. If Hoff doesn't think clearly and does something to hurt you, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

Seeing that Wang Lei cared about her so much, Qi Xiaona didn't refuse again and reluctantly got on Wang Lei's private plane.

At this time, Lindgren drove his new car to catch up:

"Boss, you... didn't leave."

"I thought..."

"You thought I would forget the big business I promised you."

Lindgren nodded embarrassedly:

"I thought you were leaving California today."

Wang Lei has always been a mysterious person, and no one knows which country he will appear in tomorrow.

"I should stay in California for a few days. Let's go and find a place to talk about big business."

Lindgren nodded, and the two found a secluded cafe next to the airport.

"Recently, I have my eyes on the farm business and plan to buy some land in the United States."

"Boss, if you want to replicate this good luck, I advise you to put away the idea of ​​buying land.

Not every field has oil under it. Even if there is, most of it is difficult to mine and belongs to strategic reserves."

Wang Lei naturally understands this truth. He can't say that there will be an oil boom in North Dakota in the future.

He could only explain:

"No, oil exploration is just a side job. I had the idea of ​​buying a large amount of land before I found the oil field.

I am ready to spend 10 billion US dollars to buy land in various states in the United States. I want to be the largest landowner in the United States!"

In Lindgren's impression, the farm business is not profitable, and many small farmers live on government subsidies.

Although he did not understand the general consultant's wealth management, he knew that Wang Lei was a smart rich man and would not do a loss-making business, so he did not continue to persuade him.

He asked back:

"Boss, do you want to entrust Husky to help you buy farmland to explore oil?"

"Yes, I think I have bought 10 billion US dollars of things, and it is not bad to open a blind box. If there is oil, I will make money, and Husky will also have an extra way to make money, which is beneficial to everyone."

"Open a blind box? This metaphor is appropriate. On behalf of Husky, I agree to cooperate with you."

Lindgren felt that he came to the right place. That was 10 billion US dollars of land, that is, 250,000 to 300,000 acres of land.

With such a large area of ​​land, it is inevitable that there will be some oil fields suitable for exploitation.

This undoubtedly gave Husky a foothold in America.

You should know that Ellison Mobil has monopolized most of America's oil mines, and other local giants are eyeing it covetously.

Husky wants to become the world's largest energy company, America is an indispensable piece of the puzzle, and helping Wang Lei survey farmland is also a good opportunity for them to gain a foothold in America.

The shrewd Lindgren had no reason to refuse.

"Boss, where is our first stop?" Lindgren couldn't wait to do something big now.

"North Dakota! My people have already started a large-scale acquisition there."

"Okay, I'll take the team there as soon as I finish dealing with things here."

"It's good to be aggressive, but I hope you pay attention to your own security issues. Don't you want to spend this little money on you?"

"No, our company has sufficient funds. I personally think it's unnecessary, so I cut this expense."

"How can this be possible? This is my security company. Contact them. Not only do you need bodyguards, but your entire team needs protection."

Hearing this, Lindgren thought of his wife and the angry faces of David and his son:

"Okay, I'll contact them right away."

Wang Lei nodded. He has been secretly planning for the oil industry.

If Husky successfully takes over the oil fields in North Dakota, it will have the ability to compete with the three old giants, but to go further, it must have a bigger discovery.

He suddenly thought of the Guyana-Suriname Basin, which is known as the world's last offshore oil boom.

Mobil conducted several drillings in the Guyana Basin in the 1960s and 1970s.

But the results were not very clear, which led to the basinThe area was ignored by many energy companies.

But in 2001, the Geological Survey of the United States conducted further surveys on the Guyana-Suriname Basin.

The result is that the Guyana-Suriname Basin contains 2.8 billion to 32.6 billion barrels of undiscovered oil resources!

In fact, the oil reserves in the basin are still far underestimated. Until 2023, there are still oil blocks being discovered.

In the future, Guyana will become a new top oil producer!

If Husky's layout in Guyana takes the lead, then Husky may really surpass Mobil and replace it to become the world's number one energy giant.

When it goes public, Husky will not lack investors and optimists.

"Liu Hu, let's go to Western Petroleum in Los Angeles. I plan to meet Martin Davis, the old fox."

Martin Davis, chairman of Western Petroleum, bought Paramount, one of the five major Hollywood giants, in 1966!

Paramount, one of the three largest production companies in Hollywood, is well-known for its logo of stars surrounding a snowy mountain.

According to the latest news from the Thousand-Faced Fox, Martin has recently considered selling Paramount.

The reason can be traced back to the Paramount Act that shocked the entire film industry in 1948.

At that time, the five major film companies, as giants, monopolized both the production and cinema industries.

Small companies had almost no chance of success because they had no cinemas and no film schedules.

In order to break the monopoly of the chaebols on the film industry, the Paramount Act split the production companies and cinemas.

Coupled with the rise of the television industry, the film industry was in a slump, and as a giant among giants, Paramount fell.

Martin Davis bought Paramount during that period.

Soon after, Barry Diller, the former president of Paramount, made a brilliant appearance.

His two assistants, Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg, later became big names in the film industry.

This trio brought Paramount back to the top of Hollywood.

However, Barry Diller's ideal is to build a new TV network.

But Martin Davis, the boss behind the parent company, has no intention of taking such an adventure.

In 1984, Barry Diller finally found a soulmate.

It was Rupert Murdoch, the Australian media tycoon who had just taken over 20th Century Fox.

He was poached to build his fourth TV network.

Later, Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg were also poached by Disney.

For a period of time afterwards, Paramount fell into a slump again.

Seeing the elites leave and those who were poached, Paramount's performance was getting worse year by year, and Martin had the idea of ​​selling Paramount.

Wang Lei, who had always wanted to buy a large Hollywood production company, naturally set his sights on it!
