Reborn Capital Empire

Chapter five hundred and seventy-two exchange conditions

…

"Mr. Guo, in fact, we don't mind you becoming a shareholder of our ExxonMobil!"

"Could it be that ExxonMobil is still planning to acquire our Unocal?"

"This is not very good. Once the two sides merge, Mr. Guo can become our largest individual shareholder of ExxonMobil."

Hearing this, Guo Shouyun's expression remained unchanged, but he couldn't stop complaining in his heart.

In Unocal he can speak his mind. But if the two sides merge, in the best case, he can get a dozen percent of ExxonMobil's shares. These shares are gold mines in the eyes of investment institutions, but they are tasteless in Guo Shouyun's view.

According to the existing commercial law, if the holding institution or individual holds no more than 30% of the total shares, there is no 'one-vote veto' over the decision-making of the group. Without this right, he is at best a larger shareholder, a shareholder that sounds good, but there are many such shareholders on ExxonMobil's board. Except that it will be useful to hold a general meeting of shareholders to exercise voting rights, it is not useful at all.

As for the idea of ​​increasing Exxon Mobil's shares to 30%, unless it is a special opportunity, such as the subprime mortgage crisis and the oil crisis, it is not very likely at all. Because the power is so great, ExxonMobil's chairman, CEO, and COO are definitely not willing to add a king to their heads. Guo Shouyun is 100% sure that once he tries to do this, ExxonMobil's management's stock split, poison pill plan and other ways to diversify equity will come.

Therefore, one is to be a nominal shareholder, and the other is to be a "one word", and a fool knows how to choose.

"Mr. Hurt, I'm still very young, and I don't plan to retire so soon!"

"Well, it seems that I have no chance to work with Mr. Guo." After a pause, "I would like to ask, if ExxonMobil supports Unocal's decision, we can use it in the Brazilian coastal natural gas pipeline plan. How many shares?"

"5%~10%!"

"That number is a little too low."

"If Exxon Mobil can help me get more than half of the Majinou oil field, I can give you all of the Pacific Energy Group's shares in the Brazilian gas pipeline."

Natural gas pipelines in Brazil contain huge profits, but how can they compare to a super-giant oilfield with proven reserves of 13 billion barrels and hidden reserves of 25 billion barrels!

Chris Hurt smiled and said nothing.

Support and win, the difference between the words, the meaning of which is very different. It doesn't take much effort to support, nor does Exxon Mobil need to use its own network of connections. It only needs to not oppose Unocal's claims when things come to an end. But winning is a completely different concept. In the situation of Iraqi wolves with less meat, even Exxon Mobil would have to use countless contacts and money to make it possible.

Paying such a large price for a Brazilian coastal natural gas pipeline project is really not worth it.

"Although I personally want to promise Mr. Guo, but unfortunately I can't convince the board of directors. So, I can only apologize."

"It doesn't matter. As long as ExxonMobil doesn't set obstacles in this matter." Guo Shouyun didn't expect the other party to really agree.

"OK! I can guarantee this!"

Although ExxonMobil and BP share the Rumaila field. But what they got was the South Rumaila oilfield with reserves of up to 1.96 billion tons. It's just that the reserves of South Rumaila are higher than that of the Majinu Oilfield, and they naturally have no reason to disagree.

Guo Shouyun nodded, "I will pass it on to the person in charge of Pacific Energy and ask them to discuss with ExxonMobil in detail."

After the two sides continued to communicate with each other, Guo Shouyun hung up the phone.

"Finally got ExxonMobil!"

On the government side, he's already got George W. Bush. Now ExxonMobil has almost won. Most of the factors preventing him from getting the Majinu oil field have gone.

"Wang Jue, is there any news about Chevron Texaco?"

"This is a document just sent from the Information Management Department. Yesterday, the Chevron Texaco board of directors officially issued an announcement on its official website, removing Calvin Booth as chief operating officer and replacing him with John Watson."

Guo Shouyun's expression moved, and he quickly read the result document from Wang Jue's hand.

"I feel unwell and resign voluntarily?"

Looking at the reasons for Calvin Booth's resignation written in the document, Guo Shouyun shook his head. When he met Calvin Booth a few days ago, he was full of energy and participated in Areg for Chevron Texaco. The natural gas pipeline from Ligang to Victoria, I keep fighting with myself, what kind of discomfort does it feel there?

"Is there a more precise reason?"

"There is no more accurate reply from the Information Management Department."

The Information Management Department is a branch of the Guo Shouyun Secretariat and is in charge of Will Harrington. It collects global economic, political and business intelligence and provides support for all Guo Shouyun's decision-making. After three or four years of development, this institution is now an astonishing institution with nearly 300 official staff and more than 10 million edited files. However, compared to the intelligence departments of those old-fashioned families and corporate trusts, they still lack some background.

However, in addition to making up for the defects caused by this time, Guo Shouyun couldn't think of a good way. Fortunately, Will Harrington is talented enough. Since he became the head of the information management department, the development of this intelligence agency has been very fast, and the information is also very timely.

In addition, under Guo Shouyun's huge secretariat, in addition to the Information Management Department responsible for intelligence, there are also the 'Security Department' responsible for security, the 'Bruce Foundation' responsible for think tanks, and the 'Finance Department' responsible for his personal finances and investments , the 'Personnel Department' responsible for personnel; the 'Administration Department' responsible for document editing and processing, book proofing and publishing, the 'Logistics Department' responsible for vehicle, ship and private jet arrangements, and the 'Legal Department' responsible for legal aspects.

Apart from not having a company name, it is almost indistinguishable from the management of a company.

And this increasingly large secretariat is Guo Shouyun's real brain, assisting him to manage all his companies, and to handle information and public and private matters from all aspects~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is very important!

Although there is no more accurate information from the Information Management Department, Guo Shouyun can also guess that the reason why Chevron Texaco has such a change is nothing more than the result of internal power struggle.

When a company is big, politics is inevitable. Even the Taizu said: There is no party outside the party, the idea of ​​​​the emperor; It is human nature to fight for power. And it's no secret that executives at Chevron and Texaco are battling for corporate power.

And now with the departure of Calvin Booth, it indicates that the battle between the two factions has gradually come to an end. From later generations, Chevron Texaco took the initiative to remove the name of Texaco, and only retained the brand name of Chevron. It can be seen that the former has won this battle.

However, these have little to do with Guo Shouyun. He didn't want to get involved either. Moreover, Chevron Texaco's infighting, if they can let them relax their attention on Iraqi oil, may be a good thing for him.
