Centennial Family, Rising From Hong Kong Island

"Butterfly Bay Company 100 million Hong Kong dollars~"

"Wharf's 110 million~"

...

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

"230 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 Xinhongtu Real Estate Company on Central Avenue was bought by Butterfly Bay at a price of 180 million.

It's a lot of money!

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

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

And this is not an isolated case.

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

Butterfly Bay, Cheung Kong Industrial and other companies took their knives and forks to carve up the real estate giant Xinhongtu little by little.

Among them, Butterfly Bay Real Estate Company won the most land and gained the most benefits.

If he is willing, Su Shaoze may swallow most of Xinhongtu's assets, but Su Shaoze will not do so unless it is absolutely necessary.

He is very clear about the principle of equal benefit, blindly eating alone will only slowly put him in a disadvantageous situation.

Sharing can be done under the premise of ensuring your own interests.

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

However, Su Shaoze, Bao Chuanwang, and Li Chaoren are allies in the face of British-funded enterprises and international consortiums outside Hong Kong Island.

Su Shaoze had to establish a Hong Kong Island consortium to be more powerful to compete with international consortiums.

An auction ended quickly, and the main assets of Xinhongtu were acquired by companies such as Butterfly Bay at extremely low prices.

At this time, in Xinhongtu, apart from a name, there are only a bunch of broken buildings of little value left.

Everyone knows that after Xinhongtu is over, there will no longer be 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!

As a result, the control of the four major families over the economy of Hong Kong Island has been further stabilized.

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

In the Galactic Empire Building, Su Shaoze's office, which symbolizes the power center of the Galactic Empire, Su Shaoze, wearing a suit, sat on the sofa with a calm expression.

And opposite him, sitting was a white-skinned ghost.

In his thirties, he has dark yellow hair, a straight nose, blue eyes, and a neat suit, with a faint smile on his face all the time.

He held the coffee in one hand and gently stirred it with a 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 it, but since the person who came here is a ghost, and a ghost with a very special status, Su Shaoze can't be rude.

"It's not bad, but the technique of making coffee is not enough. Mr. Su, your secretary needs to be trained." David nodded slightly 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 are not as good as he is. Coupled with his background in his previous life, his current English level is not bad.

"I'm afraid my secretary will be sad when he hears Mr. David's evaluation~" Su Shaoze said hehe.

David shrugged slightly, obviously these ghosts don't know what is reserved.

A week ago, Su Shaoze received a letter from the US company, the US company's vice president, David Rockefeller, was going to visit Mr. Su Shaoze, the chairman of the Galaxy Group.

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

U.S. Oil is the largest oil company in the United States and the largest oil company in the world. The only thing that has an intersection with Galaxy Group is oil.

The other party must have come for the oil in Nanyang.

But what really surprised Su Shaoze was the surname and first name of the vice president of Meibu Petroleum.

Rockefeller!

One of the most mysterious and richest families in the United States, started in the 1960s with the development of the oil industry.

The Standard Oil Company created once monopolized 90% of the oil production in the United States.

And even after the standard company was split into 37 oil companies, companies such as Mobil and Chevron still firmly occupy the top ten oil companies in the United States.

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

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's memory is correct, after the new century, the new generation head of the Rockefeller family seems to be David Rockefeller! big.

Chapter 421: Nanyang Oil Exploitation Right【Ask for flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】

Because of the anti-monopoly law, the Rockefeller family seems to have lost control of companies such as U.S. floating oil companies. Many of the shares of these oil companies are occupied by other consortiums.

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

Even after entering the new century, Rockefeller and other three major eastern financial groups still firmly control the economy of the United States and exert a strong influence on the political arena.

David Rockefeller, who became the vice president of American Oil at the age of 30, came from the Rockefeller family, and his starting point in life may be the end point that other people can hardly reach in their lifetime.

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

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

David Rockefeller, definitely a very capable man!

And he came to Su Shaoze not on behalf of the Rockefeller family, but on behalf of the American floating oil company.

The purpose is indeed for Nanyang oil!

"I have to admire Mr. Su's vision. He bought a large number of uninhabited deserted islands in Nanyang long ago, as well as oil exploration rights in 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 Petroleum Company has discovered another large oil field on the bottom of the South China Sea?"

David Rockefeller and Su Shaoze soon entered into the topic of conversation, oil!

This is something that can make the whole world tense, and it has caused countless wars because of this.

Before the 1980s, the world's oil centers were in West Asia and North Africa, but after entering the 1980s, as the Hong Kong Island Petroleum Company under the Galaxy Group bought a large number of uninhabited islands in the South China Sea, and conducted surveys for oil on the seabed .

The eyes of many international oil giants have also shifted to Nanyang, and they were surprised to find that the oil reserves on the seabed of Nanyang are so amazing.

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

Hong Kong Island Oil Company!

An oil company from the Hong Kong Island Consortium, behind which is the Galaxy Group of Hong Kong Island!

And this is also the purpose of David Rockefeller coming to the Galaxy Group.

Nanyang oil exploration rights.

On the other hand, Su Shaoze shook his head and smiled slightly: "It was purely a willful act back then, with elements of gambling. I spent a lot of money to buy those uninhabited deserted islands, which also put my funds in trouble for a while."

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

There are more than a lot of oil reserves in Nanyang?

According to the survey and estimation data of later generations, the oil reserves in Nanyang are enough to account for 10% of the world's oil reserves.

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

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

"Mr. Su not only has amazing vision, but also has amazing luck." David Rockefeller said with admiration.

This thirty-year-old Rockefeller is also a standard businessman, enough to abandon his Rockefeller arrogance in the face of interests.

The voice changed and he said, "I don't know if Mr. Su has any plans to sell part of the Nanyang Oil Exploitation Rights?"

Sell ​​oil rights?

Su Shaoze would only sell the mining rights if he was a fool. It was a golden mountain.

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

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

How much money can be earned by relying on oil is secondary, the most important thing is to master this strategic resource, and Su Shaoze's right to speak when facing certain forces will be greatly enhanced.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to sell.

"Hehe, Mr. David is joking, right? The importance of oil as a resource to the entire world is beyond doubt."

"The value of this black gold is immeasurable. In order to develop the oil resources in Nanyang, our Galaxy Group has specially established Hong Kong Island Petroleum Company, and has already carried out a lot of preparation work."

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

Although in general commercial negotiations, the reason why there are not-for-sale products is only because the price offered by the other party is not high enough.

However, Su Shaoze would never release Nanyang Petroleum mining rights easily.

As for Su Shaoze's non-sale item, David Rockefeller just nodded and smiled lightly, not paying attention, but said:

"Mr. Su, the world's oil industry has been developed for more than a hundred years, and seabed oil has been discovered for more than ten years. But so far, few people have been able to use the seabed oil resources."

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

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."

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

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

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

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

Therefore, before this, few people paid attention to the oil in the seabed.

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

More people are focusing on this one, and the US oil is by no means the last one.

"We at Mobil Petroleum have the world's most advanced drilling technology and have done a lot of research and development on subsea oil extraction."

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

"Please forgive my bluntness, it cannot be called an oil company at all, but just a lord sitting on an oil field."

"So~".

Chapter 422 Brighten up Rockefeller's muscles【Ask for flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】

Therefore, the Nanyang oil fields are completely wasted in the hands of the Hong Kong Island Petroleum Company. Only by selling them to Meibu Oil can they maximize their value.

The current Hong Kong Island Petroleum Company is completely empty, with money but no technology, no channels and no people. So far, no barrel of oil has been extracted.

The work I did before was all about surveying and estimating how much oil resources are hidden deep in the seabed of the South China Sea.

But what next?

How should the Hong Kong Island Petroleum Company get the oil out of the seabed?

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

Because Hong Kong Island Petroleum Company is just a name, it has no experience and technology in oil exploration, and it will take at least ten years or even longer to develop.

"So, Mr. Su might as well sell the oil fields in Nanyang to us, and the American floating oil company will give Mr. Su a suitable price." David Rockefeller said.
