Chapter 484 British Petroleum Company Visitors

Fang Mingyuan really doesn't understand why Fudi Oil Holdings is so interested in the oil in its hands. The most indispensable thing in the Middle East is oil. 100% of this medium-sized oil field

Twenty-five moles of oil is more, but less. Fudi Oil Holdings, as an old oil company, has been rooted in the Middle East for many years. Logically speaking, how can it make up for this small share of oil?

Come up?

With confusion in his heart, Fang Mingyuan received Dudliwe. As expected by Fang Mingyuan, within ten minutes of talking, Dudliwe turned the topic to the molecular oil in the Kalafar Oilfield.

"Mr. Dudley, I really don't understand why your company cares so much about the little oil in my hand?" Fang Mingyuan said without concealing his surprise, "Mr. Dudley, this is the Middle East and the world.

Oil depots export tens of millions of barrels of oil every year. To put it more exaggeratedly, even if you dig a well in your backyard, you might be able to dig out oil. Why does your company insist on buying this little bit of oil in my name?"

Dudliwe's face turned purple. Fang Mingyuan's words could be said to have gone straight to the center. Indeed, if he were in another place, he could still find reasons for his behavior. However, in the Middle East, where the world's oil depots are located, this oil field cannot be purchased.

For oil, you can buy oil from that oil field. If you can't buy crude oil from this country, you can buy crude oil from that country. There is too much oil exported here. Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company has enough room for choice. There is no need at all.

Hang yourself from the tree in Fang Mingyuan.

"Well...Mr. Fang, our company has indeed encountered some small troubles. If Mr. Fang can help our Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company at this time, our company will definitely be rich in rewards in the future." Du Deliwei still said vaguely.

.

Fang Mingyuan frowned and pondered. He still didn't understand why Fudi Petroleum Holdings was so obsessed with the oil production of the Kalafar Oilfield. In his memory, although the quality of the oil produced by the Kalafar Oilfield was good,

It is not unique among the oil fields in the Middle East. There are many fields in the Middle East oil fields that can replace it. But why does Fudi Petroleum Holding Company hold on to itself so tightly? And although he has not paid much attention to the recent oil prices,

We also know that the world oil price is steadily declining.

Dudley complained in his heart. In fact, the reason why Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company is obsessed with eating the molecular oil from the Kalafar Oilfield in Fang Mingyuan's hands is not for any other important reason. It is because this is Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company's current largest oil field.

It is possible to obtain a stable oil supply. Fudi Oil Holdings is now facing an acquisition by BP, an established domestic oil group. In order to achieve its goal, BP is also suppressing Fudi Oil Holdings' oil sources.

Several oil purchase contracts of Fudi Oil Holdings in Kuwait and various countries in the Middle East are nearing their expiry date. Due to pressure from BP, contract renewal negotiations between Fudi Oil Holdings and the state-owned oil companies of these countries are proceeding very poorly.

Smoothly. Not only has the purchase price of oil increased significantly, but also many more stringent conditions have been put forward. If it is impossible to successfully reach an agreement with the state-owned oil companies of these countries, then the oil purchase of Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company

If there is a considerable gap in oil production, oil will have to be purchased from the market to make up for the shortfall. This is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.

After the Gulf War, Iraq was still subject to United Nations sanctions and its oil exports were suspended. As the world's second largest oil reserve country, Iraqi oil originally played a very important role in the Middle East's oil supply. Now its oil is prohibited from being exported.

, several oil companies that originally imported oil from Iraq had to turn to other countries in the Middle East to import oil, which undoubtedly made it more difficult for Fudi Oil Holdings to obtain oil from the Middle East.

That's why Fudi Petroleum Holdings Co., Ltd. can make the 25% of the molecular oil of the Kalafar Oilfield in the hands of Fang Mingyuan so central. If this 25% of the molecular oil of the Kalafar Oilfield can be saved, even though it is far away

Filling up the oil gap of Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company will not have much effect, but it can make Fudi Oil Holdings Company breathe a little bit. Of course, the most important thing is Fang Mingyuan's background, which makes him not care too much.

Pressure from BP. BP had nothing to do with him. But Dudley did not dare to tell Fang Mingyuan all these words. If Fang Mingyuan used this matter to blackmail Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company to significantly increase the purchase price, or say

If you put forward any conditions that are unacceptable, you will be in trouble.

But looking at Fan Mingyuan's current appearance, it seems that he is about to break the casserole and ask the truth. He will not agree to sell molecular oil to himself without asking the truth. So how much crude oil supply will the Kalafar Oilfield have in three months?

, it’s hard to say.

Dudley gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Fang, it's like this..."

At this moment, the housekeeper of Prince Abdullah's villa appeared at the door of the living room and announced the arrival of Burris Fairbanks, the representative of BP. Although Fang Mingyuan was very surprised, why did the representative of BP want to

Come to visit yourself, but since everyone is already here, it’s not good to turn them away.

Burris Fairbanks, who is in his early fifties and has some gray hair, looks like a typical British gentleman. Even in the Middle East, he still wears suits and ties, and even holds a civilized stick in his hand.

When Fang Mingyuan saw him for the first time, he felt like he was going back in time. Dudliwe's face turned gloomy. It was obvious that Burris' arrival was aimed at him.

Fairbanks took a "gentlemanly" sip of the black tea brought by the butler, and then said in a London accent: "Dear Eastern visitor, Mr. Fang, I am here today to represent the British Empire and the British Petroleum Company to do something very important.

I will discuss the matter with you. But, does Mr. Fang intend to discuss it here?"

Fang Mingyuan raised his eyebrows. The first words of this Fairbanks made him feel very unhappy. There was a sense of superiority in these words, which was disgusting. And so far, he has not

I don’t understand the specific purpose of this person’s visit. “Dear Western visitor, Mr. Fairbanks, I don’t know that the British Petroleum Company you represent sent you to come to me to discuss something, but I still have guests here.

, you have to say one comes first and the other comes last, right?"

Fang Mingyuan gave Fairbanks a soft-spoken sentence, which caused a flash of anger in Fairbanks's eyes, but Dudley laughed happily. This Fairbanks was exactly what Dudley was doing.

An old rival in the Middle East, Dudley has often been against him these days.

Fairbanks is a typical Englishman. To be more precise, he is an Englishman who is still immersed in the glory of the empire on which the sun never sets and has not yet awakened to this day. Except for Americans, he looks down on people from other countries.

Of course, in some matters, he also looked down on the Americans, thinking that they were a group of upstarts with no historical background. BP's position in the European and world oil industries also gave him enough confidence, so

It's better to talk to those dignitaries in the Middle East. When dealing with ordinary people, the arrogance revealed in the bones is rarely concealed. This person probably learned the news of his arrival and came to disturb the situation.

, just like he did before.

However, his attitude obviously made Fang Mingyuan very unhappy, which is a good thing!

Fairbanks continued: "Mr. Fang, you are right. It is true that Mr. Dudley came before me. However, I just want to ask a question. If the British Prime Minister came to visit at this moment, would you also

Are you insisting on a first-come, first-serve basis?" In Fairbanks' view, Forte Oil Holdings and BP are completely incomparable, so as a representative of BP, he is naturally better than Dudley, who represents Forte Oil Holdings.

Powerful, more status!

"I insist!" Fang Mingyuan said without hesitation.

Fairbanks was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment. Dudley laughed unceremoniously.

"Mr. Fang, you are disrespectful to me, the Prime Minister of the British Empire!" Fairbanks said in a deep voice, "You are also disrespectful to me, the British Empire!"

"Anyway, he didn't come to see me! I don't have to receive guests for Prince Abdullah!" Fang Mingyuan shrugged, "According to Mr. Fairbanks' logic, as long as your British Prime Minister appears somewhere

, even the local cleaner who cleans the toilets must go out to greet him? Is this respect for your country and your Prime Minister? Well, Mr. Fairbanks’s logic really makes me feel

I can't understand. If that were the case, if your Prime Minister went to China... No, no, no, I think our government will definitely refuse your Prime Minister to enter the capital. Our capital has a population of tens of millions, and such respect costs

It’s really too high!”

"Hahahaha..." Dudliwei held his stomach and laughed so hard that he could hardly stand upright. Fang Mingyuan completely misunderstood Fairbanks' meaning. But what he said was correct. This is Abdullah.

Fang Mingyuan is not a political figure in the prince's residence. Even if the British Prime Minister comes to visit, he will naturally not be looking for him. Of course, there is no need for him to come out to receive him - there is also Prince Abdullah's butler here. Of course, this

This kind of thing is impossible to happen. Even if the British Prime Minister wants to visit Prince Abdullah, it will not be a temporary decision, let alone the situation where the master is not at home.

Fairbanks turned blue with anger and said angrily: "Mr. Fang, please stop being so messy! Misinterpret my meaning at will."

"Eh? Mr. Fairbanks, if you insist like this, then I have a question. I heard that there is a famous saying in the Western legal community - the wind can enter the poor man's thatched house, the rain can enter, but the king cannot.

Come on! Since Mr. Fairbanks thinks I am the owner of this place, do I have the legal right to refuse to meet anyone?" Fang Mingyuan said calmly, "The Prime Minister of your country, that is the Prime Minister elected by you British people, and

Not my Prime Minister, this is not London, let alone Buckingham Palace. I don’t understand why I have to take care of his ideas in my house? Mr. Dudley, is it the *** and *** that your country flaunts?

,Isn’t it like this?”

"Bah bang bang..." Dudley clapped, "Mr. Fang, you are right. Even if this is London, we British have the right to legally refuse to meet anyone! Even if he is the king!"

Fairbanks was so angry that his teeth itched. This yellow-skinned boy was so cunning!

Fairbanks decided to put the issue aside for the time being. He did not come here to argue with the young man. "Mr. Fang, since you insist, then I will say it here in front of Mr. Dudley. Listen."

Say, Mr. Fang has received 25% of the shares in the Kalafar oil field donated by the Kuwait government. We, BP, want to sign a long-term oil purchase contract with you. I wonder if Mr. Fang is willing to talk?

"

"Huh?" Fang Mingyuan looked at Dudley, whose face was a little blue, "It turns out that Mr. Fairbanks also came for oil, and he had the same purpose as Mr. Dudley. However, Mr. Fairbanks also came here for oil.

Where did you get the news?"

Fairbanks said with a proud smile: "The history of oil production in the Middle East by the British Imperial Petroleum Company can be traced back to before 1930. It is difficult to hide the news about oil in this land from our ears.

Mr. Fang was lucky enough to get a 25% share of the Kalafar oil field. But as far as I know, your country does not currently import oil, and your country also prohibits private companies from entering the oil refining industry. Fang

Mr. Fang's oil can only be sold externally. We, the British Imperial Petroleum Company, are willing to help Mr. Fang solve this problem."

"Problem? What kind of problem is this? Could it be that in today's world oil market, there is so much oil that it can't be sold? It's really strange, why didn't I hear Prince Abdullah say that OPEC is going to cut production?

Mr. Dudley, have you heard such news?" Fang Mingyuan hated Fairbanks' tone of voice. He obviously wanted to buy the oil in his hands, but he also pretended to be doing favors to him.

, which made Fang Mingyuan feel angry when he saw it. Naturally, he became even more rude in his words. Anyway, his current business plan is still incompatible with the UK. This old guy is rude to him, and he has no need to be polite to him.

He is polite.

The glory of the empire on which the sun never sets has long since declined!
