At the beginning, Gao Xian didn't realize how good his "anticipation" was.
When Huo Yingdong said to go, he accompanied him on the plane. On the way, he changed his previous cautious investment attitude and made it clear that he was willing to follow. Gao Xiancai determined that the other party was completely fooled by himself.
When you think about it, this phenomenon is not surprising.
It is no secret how long and deep the relationship between Huo Yingdong and Yanjing is.
But even so, in the cancellation of this year's National Day ceremony and the high-rise earthquake reflected behind it, Empress Dowager Huo Yingdong was aware of Gao Xian's inference.
It's strange that Huo Yingdong didn't shock after seeing Gao Xian's magic tricks with his own eyes.
Moreover, you know, at this stage, Huo Yingdong is very passive in Xiangjiang. All important commercial activities are suppressed by the Hong Kong government. It can be said that he has no strength, but there is nowhere to use.
With the deepening of his trust in Gao Xian, Huo Yingdong will naturally re-examine the feasibility of the overseas investment plan of this rising star in Xiangjiang business community,
Gao Xian explained: "when I visit Brunei this time, I first need to determine one thing, who is the most effective there; then I need to make specific investment."
Huo Yingdong said with admiration: "Mr. Gao is worried that the current power structure in Brunei can be described as both the emperor and the supreme emperor, which really makes outsiders confused."
It is necessary to point out that Brunei is not large. Of course, it is larger than xingjiapo. It is almost five times the area of the Xiangjiang River. In history, it is known as the three northern states of British Borneo together with Sarawak and Sabah, both British colonies.
It is not hard to imagine that the three states of Beipo and xingjiapo all hope to form a greater Malaya with the Malaya Union state with more abundant resources.
However, as a neighbor, Indonesia does not want to see a strong Malaya next to itself.
Therefore, in the process of the establishment of Malaya, there was a historical event called "India Malaysia confrontation", including the riots in Brunei.
In December 1962, a rebellion launched by the national army of northern Kalimantan broke out in Brunei. The goal was to oppose the monarchy and the proposal to join the Federation of Malaya.
However, because the most important action to capture the Sultan of Brunei at that time, Omar Ali saifitin III, failed, the rebellion quickly ended in failure.
Because of this rebellion, Omar Ali saiiftin III, Sultan of Brunei, decided that Brunei would not join greater Malaya. In fact, both sides would not offend for peace.
On the other side of Malaya, the United States of Malaya, Sarawak, Sabah and xingjiapo formed greater Malaya. Later, xingjiapo was expelled from greater Malaya, and finally formed today's Malaya.
In October 1967, Omar Ali saiiftin III, the Sultan of Brunei, abdicated and passed the throne to his eldest son - * * * * borkia, and Brunei became what Huo Yingdong just said. There was both an emperor and a supreme emperor.
Gao Xian is not worried about Brunei's national fate, because after entering the 1970s, the situation in Southeast Asia except the Indochina Peninsula has become less tense. Xingjiapo, which is more sensitive, can live well. Of course, Brunei is no exception.
But Gao Xian is worried that if he worships the wrong Wharf on the third mu of land in Brunei, he will not be guilty.
After Xiangjiang business entered the 1980s, many famous acquisition wars took place. One example was Bao Yugang, the ship king who had won jiulongcang, and the next city, acquired huidefeng. At that time, the competitor was Qiu deba, a famous businessman.
Qiu debar, who was selected as the richest man in Singapore by Forbes magazine at the beginning of the 21st century, suffered a big setback in Brunei. After the death of Brunei supreme emperor Omar Ali saifitin III, he was investigated and punished for a crime of financial fraud by Brunei Sultan * * * * bolkia. He not only wanted to lose money, but also implicated his eldest son and put him in Brunei prison.
No matter where, it is inevitable that there will be a hidden rule of one emperor and one courtier, but Brunei's current situation of "two state-owned monarchs" is really a dilemma.
In that case, why does Gao Xian have to do this multiple-choice question by himself?
The reason is very simple. Brunei is now waiting for all kinds of industries. Coupled with the predictable national stability, it is a rare opportunity to enter. It is difficult for other places to have such conditions.
Seeing that Huo Yingdong obviously knew something about the situation in Brunei, Gao Xian said modestly, "Huo Sheng, we need to make more use of Huo's contacts in Brunei to make this trip smooth!"
"Duty bound." Huo Yingdong smiled and asked curiously, "Mr. Gao, now crude oil is about two dollars a barrel. Even if we can get the oil field in Brunei, I'm afraid we can't make much money?"
After all, Huo Yingdong is an excellent big businessman. Finally, he turned the topic to the key point.
In ordinary people's daily life, it is difficult to think of the existence of "bulk commodities", and crude oil belongs to bulk commodities.
In short, commodities, the lifeblood of the national economy, do not directly enter the retail field. Its most critical pricing power reflects who is in charge in the world.
Take oil for example. Multinational oil companies led by the United States have controlled the international price of oil for a long time, maintaining a price level of about one dollar per barrel.
As a result, oil rich countries such as Iran, Iraq and Saudi Arabia can only watch western capitalist countries make a lot of money, but they can't get enough fair benefits.
Therefore, the organization of petroleum exporting countries came into being in 1960. Its mission is to strive for the pricing power of crude oil.
In this struggle situation, the international crude oil price has risen from one dollar to two dollars, which is what Huo Yingdong said.
Of course, Huo Yingdong's worries are reasonable. Even if Gao Xian gets the oil field in Brunei, the oil price is the boss's decision. He can't make much unless he invests more money to build an oil refinery to improve profits.
But in this way, the money is a little hard to earn, which is more stable, accurate and ruthless than investing in real estate.
For Huo Yingdong's doubts, Gao Xian couldn't help smiling and said, "just look at the tense situation in the Middle East. Another outbreak of war is inevitable, and the unprecedented global oil crisis will inevitably come. At that time, the international crude oil price will tumble to double digits. Isn't that a profit?"
In Gao Xian's plan, the equity of oil fields still under investigation, such as the North Sea and Texas, as well as crude oil futures, are opportunities that can not be missed, but he is also unwilling to give up the opportunity to engage in industry in Brunei.
After all, some characteristics of industry can not be replaced.
But how to explain to Huo Yingdong his motivation to invest in the oil industry really tests Gao Xian's deception level.
