Watching Zhou Wenyao put a series of documents signed by Intel on the table, Gao Xian can be sure that the company's ups and downs have been unable to shake its plan for microprocessors.
Of course, compared with Gao Xian's minority position on Intel's board of directors, if Fagin team can run away from Intel, it will be more under control.
When Gaoxian Zhengda was pleased, another good news came.
At present, little Bush, who is only waiting to study for an MBA at Harvard University this year, excitedly ran to Los Angeles to report the good news, "David, the No. 30 Eugene Island you bid for really has oil!"
"Sure enough, there is oil!" after Gao Xian laughed loudly, he urged little Bush: "tell me the details."
Little Bush, who was not in the past, gushed: "according to the plan, we built two offshore platforms. As a result, as soon as the second offshore platform was built, oil was found on the first offshore platform."
"David, you're lucky. Many people think that the rock strata of Eugene island are more likely to contain natural gas from the age. Unexpectedly, there is oil. You're going to be rich!"
"Get rich together!" Gao Xian stressed with a smile: "don't forget, you also invested $50000."
Little Bush smiled and said, "being a good friend with David makes you more lucky."
The head still kept a clear string and asked, "is there a conclusion about the oil reserves of Eugene Island 30?"
"The final data still needs time to be analyzed." Little Bush replied happily, "however, with existing experience, it should not be a problem for the daily output of crude oil on Eugene Island 30 to reach thousands of barrels; even more optimistic, the possibility of tens of thousands of barrels is very high."
Gao Xian glanced at Little Bush and muttered in his heart, what is "more optimistic"? Is your boy hairless and unstable? When you are happy, you can't help running the train.
It was not until he met old bush in Houston, Texas that Gao Xian's doubts were completely eliminated.
"From past experience, Eugene Island 30 should be an oil field with very good reserves." Bush, who became a millionaire by relying on the oil business, said in an authoritative tone: "at present, the enhanced oil production technology in the oil industry has achieved very obvious results. For example, through gas injection, the oil production efficiency can be increased by 20%
"Therefore, I think it is highly possible that Eugene Island 30 will produce more than 10000 barrels of crude oil a day after a sufficient number of offshore platforms are deployed."
Gao Xian asked curiously, "what is the specific level of the production capacity of Eugene Island 30 to produce tens of thousands of barrels of crude oil per day?"
Old Bush thought carefully, then answered his questions and said, "among the oilfields on the continental shelf of the United States, Eugene Island 30 is enough to be among the best."
Gao Xian pretended to be proud and smiled, "in this case, the $50 million I spent is still worth it!"
"David, you have to understand that the oil industry is a highly professional industry. The No. 30 oil field on Eugene island is such a large oil field, and it is also an undersea oil field. In addition to capital, its operation needs strong technical capacity."
"Therefore, even if I try my best to help, I still feel a little difficult."
Gao Xian nodded clearly, "I understand that with our current strength, if we want to fully operate Eugene Island 30, we can't do without cooperation with a multinational oil giant like royal dutch shell."
"Yes." Gao Xian nodded. "My career is based on Xiangjiang, and Xiangjiang has close economic ties with Britain, which naturally makes my cooperation with BP a lot easier."
"In addition, I inquired about the technical strength of seabed oil production. BP is no worse than Royal Dutch Shell. They have been engaged in some form of competition in the exploitation of oil fields in the Atlantic and North Sea."
"David's consideration is indeed comprehensive." Bush agreed. "After BP is introduced, there should be no problem in the exploitation of the No. 30 oil field on Eugene island."
Speaking of this, old Bush smiled and asked, "would you like to go to the No. 30 oil field on Eugene island in person?"
Although he knew it would be hard, Gao Xian still adopted the old Bush's suggestion and went to Eugene Island 30, 170 nautical miles away from New Orleans, Louisiana, by boat for an inspection to demonstrate his power.
After entering the US exclusive economic zone in the Gulf of Mexico, Gao Xian saw a ship hanging the Royal Dutch Shell flag in the distance.
"I remember that Royal Dutch Shell won the No. 31 Eugene island at the auction." Gao Xian asked with a smile, "I don't know what Royal Dutch Shell achieved on the No. 31 Eugene island?"
"Royal Dutch Shell also discovered oil on Eugene Island 31, even faster than ours." old Bush added in a good mood: "however, Eugene Island 31 can't compare with our Eugene Island 30 in terms of crude oil production."
Gao Xian compared the chart and couldn't help joking: "it's true. Without comparison, there's no harm."
Old Bush pointed out on the chart: "we need to build at least four offshore platforms to fully exploit the rich oil contained in Eugene Island 30."
In terms of the professional level of the oil industry, Gao Xian certainly can't compare with old bush, so he just nodded like a stream of good advice.
As for the funds required for early operation, Gao Xian is not worried at all.
Seriously, looking at such a large oil field, bank loans are not a piece of cake!
Old Bush finally said, "if everything goes well, oil and natural gas should be officially produced on the 30th of Eugene island next year."
Gao Xian raised his eyebrows and said playfully, "this progress is just good!"
……
Gao Xianhao threw $50 million into the large oil field of No. 30 Eugene Island, which is quite dramatic and entertaining, and then came to the public view from a small circle.
Compared with Gao Xian's indifferent "indeed there is oil", the external "really there is oil" reaction is inevitably mixed with a sour taste.
Gao Xian is not unaware of this, but he must keep a further low profile at this time. Otherwise, after the outbreak of the fourth Middle East War, the international oil price will rise from the current high of $3 a barrel to $12, and the $50 million invested by Gao Xian will return to capital in more than a year, which will stimulate more people.
