Goldfinger is a bit strange
Chapter 870 Welcome to the Battle (1/2)
In Professor Peter's office, Liu Qingshan was chatting and laughing with the professor.
Sitting next to them were Liu Yinfeng and Wu Tong. Liu Yinfeng was also a doctoral student of Professor Peter and graduated in the same year as his brother this year.
"Liu, I heard that you were attacked. In terms of safety, you still have to pay attention. Money is the root of evil."
Professor Peter looked at this beloved disciple with concern in his eyes.
He has studied economics all his life and has a broad view, so he has never been involved in specific economic operations.
"Professor, I will be careful." Liu Qingshan nodded in thanks. He respected Professor Peter precisely because of his purity.
Professor Peter's eyes glanced outside the window. He saw several figures moving below the office building. They must be Liu Qingshan's bodyguards, so he felt relieved.
So he added: "Warren will be coming over soon, so let's attend your graduation ceremony together."
Because it is now the holiday and the unified graduation ceremony arranged by the school has ended, Liu Qingshan's doctoral photos can only be taken alone.
Just as he was talking, there was a knock on the door, and Mr. Ba walked in with a smile: "Oh, Liu, are you okay?"
Liu Qingshan went up and hugged him: "Mr. Warren, you are not here to collect debts, are you?"
When buying antiques in the island country, Liu Qingshan didn't have that much cash on hand at the time, so he turned to this person to make a fortune. Who told Buffett to short the Nikkei Index and make a lot of money.
Mr. Ba also laughed: "Liu, even if you have an accident, according to the laws here, your company will bear the debt, so I am not worried at all."
Of course these are all jokes, they are all old acquaintances, and it is inevitable to make some jokes when meeting.
Seeing several bottles of monkey wine on the table, Mr. Warren took away two bottles without politeness, which was exactly half of what he shared during the meeting.
In addition to monkey wine, there were two paper boxes on the table, and Warren also picked one up unceremoniously:
"The Bluebird mobile phone is very popular now, I heard. Peter, you can't use two of them by yourself, so this one belongs to me."
Professor Peter could only shake his head helplessly. In fact, he also enjoyed the intimacy between old friends.
Liu Qingshan couldn't help but feel grateful. With Warren's wealth, he couldn't get anything, so of course he wouldn't come to Professor Peter to catch the wind.
The real intention is, of course, to help the Jade Bird mobile phone advertise.
You know, here in the United States, money is paramount, so these rich people are the main targets of the media, and their photos are often published in newspapers.
Think about it, if the photo of Baye holding the Bluebird mobile phone in his hand was published, it would be the best advertisement.
"Mr. Warren, it seems that I need to pay you an endorsement fee." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.
"That's not necessary. If you have any new papers, just let me have a look in advance." This is a sweet taste.
Liu Qingshan smiled and shook his head: "I will be satisfied if I can get a doctorate."
Professor Peter didn't think so: "Liu, if you write more high-quality papers, the school may consider hiring you as a professor."
This is not joking like Ba Ye, but full of expectations, so Liu Qingshan also became serious: "Professor, I will work hard."
"It just so happens that I have made some predictions about the international situation recently and want to write a paper on this aspect."
Professor Peter and Ba Ye were immediately interested. They knew Liu Qingshan best. Even though he usually didn't take action, when he did, he was a heavyweight.
"Tell me, why do I think it's a bit political?" Professor Peter looked at Liu Qingshan expectantly.
But Ba Ye's eyes became even brighter: "Politics is just an extension of the economy. Liu, are you planning to do oil business?"
He is indeed an old fox, and his sense of smell is so sensitive that people have to admire him.
Liu Qingshan nodded: "This may be a war caused by oil."
"Are you talking about Iraq and Keguo?" Professor Peter frowned slightly.
It is now close to the end of July and the beginning of August, and the war will break out over there.
At the beginning of next year, multinational forces led by the United States will also send troops, causing the Gulf War to break out and shock the entire world.
Lao Ba was also frowning and thinking, oil is the most important resource, and the price of oil will also fluctuate greatly due to the war.
For him, an investor who likes to do futures, this is really a very significant business opportunity.
"Liu, can you tell me in detail?" Old Ba's heart was also filled with excitement.
Liu Qingshan laid out the situation, and the old man listened and wrote something down in his notebook.
Professor Peter was also busy writing. After Liu Qingshan finished speaking, he also compiled a draft of a paper.
Professor Peter's hand holding the draft trembled slightly: "Can such a thing really happen?"
War is the last thing Professor Peter wants to happen.
"It's very possible!" Before Liu Qingshan could answer, Lao Ba said angrily, and then stood up: "I want to say goodbye first and go back to make the argument right away."
To him, time equals money.
"Mr. Warren, don't forget your wine and mobile phone." Liu Qingshan happily handed over the things, and the old man hurried away.
Before leaving, he turned around and asked Liu Qingshan: "Do you need to participate?"
Liu Qingshan smiled and shook his head: "Professor Peter is my mentor and my benchmark."
Lao Ba also shook his head regretfully: "I will find you later. Maybe you don't have to pay interest on the loan from me."
After Lao Ba left, Professor Peter shook his head and sighed for a while, and then said to Liu Qingshan:
"I will help you submit this paper to the school. Let's go, Liu, start your graduation ceremony."
This was indeed a ceremony for Liu Qingshan alone, and only a few of his relatives and friends were present.
Professor Peter was still very proud and borrowed a doctoral gown from the school.
Liu Qingshan finally put on his doctoral hat, holding his graduation certificate in his hand, standing in front of the ancient library, leaving a mark of his youth.
Then there was a photo with Professor Peter: the professor represented the school and awarded the graduation certificate to Liu Qingshan, and Liu Qingshan respectfully took it with both hands.
"Dr. Liu, congratulations!"
After Liu Qingshan's solo photo was finished, Wu Tong also smiled and came up to take a photo.
Liu Qingshan also laughed: "Don't make fun of me, my doctorate is not comparable to my second sister's doctorate."
Liu Yinfeng also came up to take a photo with her brother, with the same pride on her face: "No, I can't reach your insights now, but I will continue to work hard."
In addition to the library, some iconic buildings on campus should also be photographed as souvenirs.
Gu Yu For Liu Qingshan, this is a happy day. Although he is not committed to studying, who would not be happy to get a high degree?
After having lunch with Professor Peter, Liu Qingshan and his group returned to the villa, and then Liu Qingshan began to make phone calls.
After several twists and turns, he finally found the person he wanted to contact: "Mr. Fahd, I'm Liu Qingshan from China."
There was a hearty laugh on the other side of the receiver: "Oh, Liu, my friend, should I congratulate you or express my condolences?"
Liu Qingshan didn't want to laugh, he said seriously: "Sir, I have an important matter here and want to talk to you. I am in the United States now and need to meet with you as soon as possible."
"Is it very important?" A question came from the other side of the phone.
"Yes, we just drilled an oil well in the waters near the coast of Lilan, but we don't have the ability to mine, so we hope to cooperate with you."
Liu Qingshan's intention was very simple. He had a very good impression of the prince. Now that the war was imminent, he didn't want the prince to become a victim of the war.
As long as the other party was led to the United States, the crisis could be avoided.
As for Lilan, it is still drilling wells for exploration, and no large oil fields have been found.
It was Xiaowu who contacted that side and hired a domestic oil exploration ship.
Although the exploration ship is not as advanced as those in Europe and the United States, it is still not a problem to use it in offshore exploration.
There is no oil now, but Liu Qingshan knows that it will be produced sooner or later, so it is not a lie.
There was silence on the other side for a while, and then the prince's voice came again: "Liu, I'm sorry, I'm in the country and can't get away at the moment, but I will send someone to contact you."
How can this be possible? Liu Qingshan was a little anxious. It's useless for others to come. I want to save you.
I heard the other party's voice again on the phone: "Liu, thank you for your kindness, but if it were you, would you choose to leave when your country is in danger?"
Liu Qingshan was silent, because he didn't know how to do it either. In the end, he could only say: "Please take care of yourself, Prince, things cannot be done, and cannot be forced."
"Okay, take care of each other." The prince's voice came from the other side.
After hanging up the phone, Liu Qingshan was silent for a long time, and finally he could only sigh.
The next day, when Liu Qingshan went to the Hurricane Audio and Video headquarters, there were already more than a dozen reporters waiting for him at the gate.
In the past two days, he has been staying at home and has not had much contact with reporters.
"Hello, Mr. Mountain. In your latest paper, you predicted a war between Iraq and Kuwait. What is your basis?"
"Mr. Mountain, if a war breaks out, what impact will it have on oil prices?"
"Mr. Mountain, do you think that a superpower will join the war and trigger the Third World War?"
Liu Qingshan then realized that it was all his paper that caused the trouble.
He was a little puzzled: It's just a paper, it shouldn't cause such a big reaction, right?
Little did he know that the previous two accurate predictions had helped him accumulate a very high reputation, so his third voice would attract such a huge attention.
You know, oil prices will have an impact on the economy of the entire world.
Liu Qingshan is still quite handy in dealing with the media. He says what he should say and laughs about what he shouldn't say.
"Mr. Mountain, according to your inference, will oil prices rise?"
A reporter asked again. Of course, the issue of oil prices is what the public is most concerned about.
"This is a war caused by a barrel of oil." Liu Qingshan nodded affirmatively: "So you'd better prepare a few large barrels at home."
The fact is that from now until the outbreak of the Gulf War, the price of oil has risen by nearly 40%. wAp.
However, after the war really started, the price of oil dropped sharply and finally stabilized.
The reporters are really powerful. One reporter suddenly asked: "Mr. Mountain, I heard that you are drilling oil wells in the waters near Liland in northeastern Africa?"
Liu Qingshan nodded, and he was also a little puzzled: How did you get the news in such a remote place?
In fact, the oil tycoons in the United States have been paying close attention to the global mining situation and constantly regulating it from a macro perspective.
Only in this way can the price of oil always remain within the range they want.
Just like from the late 1980s and early 1990s, the oil price was basically maintained at US$20 per barrel, which is most conducive to the development of the Western economy.
Note that it is the Western economy.
So the final pricing power is actually in the hands of those who are really behind the scenes.
After getting Liu Qingshan's affirmative answer, the reporter immediately smiled. He knew that his chance to perform had come, so he continued:
"But in that coastal area, some oil companies' exploration teams have conducted similar explorations, and they concluded that there are no large oil fields."
"Mr. Mountain, do you think it is necessary to continue your exploration activities? Even if you donate the money to refugees in Africa, it would be good."
Offshore drilling, an oil well, in terms of current currency prices, will probably cost millions, and it is still US dollars.
So, this business, you can't afford it without money.
The domestic exploration ship hired by Xiaowu has drilled six exploration wells, but none of them yielded any results. Tens of millions of dollars were really wasted.
Liu Qingshan finally understood that the reporter was not here to show his support, but to cause trouble.
He was not annoyed, and said to the reporter cheerfully: "Sir, how about we make a bet? If we find a large oil field over there, you will pay for the initial drilling;"
"If no oil field is found, I will pay you 100 million."
The reporter smacked his lips a few times, looking dejected: "Mr. Mountain, if I had such a large sum of money, I would definitely bet with you."
100 million US dollars, this kind of temptation is really not small.
The reporters present also spitted.
The next topic began to deviate, all shifted to this bet, and a sober reporter suddenly remembered something:
In his memory, Mr. Mountain seemed to have never lost a bet with others, right?
At this time, a reporter said sourly: "Mountain, don't joke, you know we are all poor and can't afford it, so you dare to say that."
Liu Qingshan smiled and shook his head: "No, I never bully people with my wealth and fame. This bet is valid for everyone."
He stretched out his hands confidently: "So reporters can help me promote it. Those who are interested are welcome to fight."

The bustling streets in the past are now bleak.
The sandy road that was once crowded with people is no longer noisy.
Only blood mud mixed with pieces of meat, dust, and paper remains, which is indistinguishable and shocking.
Not far away, a broken carriage is deeply stuck in the mud, full of sadness, with only an abandoned rabbit doll hanging on the shaft, swaying in the wind.
The white fluff has long been soaked into wet red, full of gloomy weirdness.
The turbid eyes seem to have some resentment, looking at the mottled stones in front alone.
There, a figure is lying.
This is a 13 or 14-year-old boy, with tattered clothes and full of dirt, and a broken leather bag tied around his waist.
The boy squinted his eyes and did not move. The biting cold penetrated his tattered coat from all directions, attacked his whole body, and gradually took away his body temperature.
