Reborn American Giants

Chapter 194: A knife in the back

Victor is in the United States and of course does not know everything that is happening in El Salvador. He is now busy preparing for the first four-party talks.

Conditions have been negotiated with Aaron from Texaco and Oliver Levin, who represents the Queen's interests, and now it is time to finally let Exxon join.

These four parties are the Royal Dalton Petroleum Company, which represents the interests of the British royal family. This Royal Petroleum Company was founded in 1815. The founder was Sir John Dalton, a famous British chemist and physicist who specialized in

The Crown and Crown businesses provide energy services.

Exxon Petroleum Company was born out of the Standard Oil Company founded by John Rockefeller in 1882. In the following decades, it continued to develop into the world's largest non-governmental oil and gas producer, with a market value of more than 100 billion U.S. dollars. It is a well-deserved giant company.

.

Let’s not talk about Texaco. Although it is currently involved in a litigation crisis with Penzer Company due to its acquisition of Getty Oil Company, the company is in turmoil and its stock price has plummeted. However, as the second largest energy company in the United States,

Giant, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. As long as Texaco recovers, it will let the world understand what kind of huge energy an energy giant company has.

The rest is Green Bay Energy under Victor's name, with two or three kittens in his name. If he hadn't signed a Golden Bay Resource Development Agreement with the Grenada government and held the resource exploitation rights of the land, it would have been impossible to compete with the above mentioned companies.

Any contact with giant companies.

News of the discovery of oil fields in Grenada has spread from the USGS. Some media have begun to report that a huge offshore oil field has been discovered in this Caribbean island country that has just been liberated by the United States. At the same time, public opinion is slowly becoming restless. Reporters want to dig deeper.

, which lucky person discovered this cornucopia? Just like the exploration boom in the United States in the 18th century, the myth of getting rich overnight continues to be staged.

Several small energy companies have begun to come to the door. Victor does not expect his information to be kept secret for long. These small energy companies are said to be small, but it depends on who they compare with, Exxon, Texaco, etc.

Compared with these giant companies with assets of hundreds or hundreds of billions of dollars, they are certainly small companies.

However, each company is worth several billion dollars. If you want to crush Green Bay Energy, it will be easy.

Fortunately, Texaco now stepped forward to take over these "trouble" for Victor.

Because the crisis caused by the lawsuit is still going on, Texaco is still working hard on "public relations", hoping to strengthen the confidence of those investors who seem to be unstable due to the negative news. That is, after the market closed at 16:00 last Friday, Texaco

Gu’s stock price has reached $116 per share.

After the market opened at 09:30 on Monday morning, a large number of selling orders appeared, and the stock price instantly dropped by another 6 US dollars, and it continued to decline with a firm attitude that never looked back. This is definitely someone who is shorting Texaco.

stocks, and seek profits from it. But Alex Shelton, the head of the company's financial trading department, could only watch all this happen and was helpless.

Texaco's cash flow is close to drying up. The company's financial director is still in contact with Merrill Lynch, Deutsche and other banks, as well as several investment institutions such as Goldman Sachs and Bear Stearns, hoping to obtain valuable cash, but now loan negotiations

It's still in progress. Some people in the company's management also used black humor, "We have prayed to the Virgin Mary, but the person who saves us has not yet appeared," there was laughter all around. Now the only thing they can do

All it takes is waiting.

Therefore, Victor's appearance made Aaron's eyes brighten up as he was thinking hard about a solution. He knew that if Texaco seized this opportunity, all his worries would disappear. The investors' unstable confidence, the upcoming litigation crisis, and the White House's hesitation

support, as well as other giant companies that are secretly watching and ready to pounce on Texaco at any time to tear Texaco's flesh and blood, etc., all of this will be shaken when he faces the media and announces that Texaco has once again harvested a huge oil and gas field.

The smoke disappeared.

Therefore, Aaron asked Mavis to send someone to investigate all the details of Green Bay Energy, and then anxiously waited for Victor's arrival in the Texaco headquarters building at 47 Waffle Street...

The location of the meeting was arranged at the Marriott Hotel. A large number of lawyers from several major companies were sitting in the large conference room next to it. They were ready to draft any agreement on the spot and were just waiting for the results of the negotiations in the small conference room next to it...

However, people outside did not know that the discussions in the small conference room were filled with a strong smell of gunpowder from the very beginning.

"I don't accept that Exxon only gets 15%. It's an insult to us," said Exxon's co-CEO Steve Black, raising his voice.

Expressed dissatisfaction with the allocation of oil fields received by Exxon.

"Then Exxon can completely choose to withdraw," Aaron Elvis crossed his arms and said coldly: "Texaco is very willing to take over the share that Exxon gave up."

"Aaron, you are still so greedy, but you are not afraid of pushing yourself to death. You should solve your own troubles first." Steve Black spread his hands and said mockingly to Victor and Oliver Levin:

"Does Texaco still have the ability to develop such a huge oil and gas field? I deeply doubt it."

"Whether Texaco has such capabilities is not something you, Exxon, need to worry about..."

Aaron looked at Steve in front of him with great hatred in his heart. The investigation company had already investigated, and just three days after Texaco announced its involvement in the acquisition of Getty Oil Company, Hof Lidke, the chairman of Penzer Company, took the bus.

He took a private plane and flew to Texas, with the destination being Irvine, the home of Exxon Oil. And within a few days after Texaco announced the successful acquisition of Getty Oil Company, Hov-Liedtke ran away again.

Went to Aiwen City several times.

Aaron is not a three-year-old child. He no longer needs to see any solid evidence. The problems exposed by Hoff Lidke's frequent whereabouts are obvious. Exxon Oil definitely played a role behind the crisis encountered by Texaco.

It won't be some kind of white knight helping those in need.

It’s no wonder that a small company like Penzer has the courage to confront Texaco, an energy giant, and a large number of members of Congress suddenly jumped out of the House and Senate to support Penzer’s monopoly lawsuit against Texaco.

This situation is absolutely abnormal. Every year, Texaco spends a large amount of dollars to donate to these bipartisan congressmen, and also conducts a series of public relations actions that are in compliance with the law. Suddenly, so many "opponents" appear.

Aaron even wondered if Texaco's previous expenditures had lost their effectiveness.

It wasn't until he received the whereabouts report from Penzer Company Chairman Hoff Lidke from the investigation company that Aaron suddenly realized that only Exxon, also an energy giant, could have such energy to complete such a task for Texaco.

Huge trouble. The purpose is self-evident, it is not to want to see Texaco take the lead in getting out of the recession caused by the loss of oil-producing areas in the Middle East after acquiring Getty Oil.

It's all about profit.

Now every company is in a period of recession, but Texaco can significantly increase its energy reserves and market share after acquiring Getty Petroleum. It will be the first to get out of the recession, leaving behind several other brothers who are suffering, and launch expansion operations and further compression.

The market share of several other giant companies, especially Exxon Petroleum, which is also an American company.

Of course Exxon doesn't want to see this happen. For this purpose, its choice is not difficult to imagine, which is to secretly work behind the scenes and try its best to hinder Texaco. But Exxon

Unexpectedly, Texaco had made a desperate move to acquire Getty Oil Company and invested all the funds it could raise into the acquisition, so that the company's cash flow was close to drying up and it had no ability to fight back in the face of the crisis.

.

This allowed Exxon to see that it could eliminate in one fell swoop this old rival that had been struggling to catch up in the past. Therefore, Exxon's board of directors held a secret meeting and decided to strongly support Penzer's Hof Lidke and let him continue

causing greater trouble for Texaco.

This is what Aaron understood the moment he received the investigation report. The two companies only seemed to have no differences on the surface.
