Wolong was completely bewildered.
He couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Boss, what's going on with these guys?"
Chen Dong said dismissively, "These guys look down on Chinese people and naturally don't want to have anything to do with me. I don't need to pay attention to them."
It should be noted that at this time, these people generally looked down on Chinese businessmen in the international business community.
In their view, only merchants with East Asian features, especially those from island nations, are symbols of wealth.
Even at the very least, they are still businessmen from South Korea.
As for Chinese merchants, they were considered to lack strength and capital.
At least in the market for bidding on oil fields, it's simply not good enough.
Furthermore, these people who came were all internationally renowned figures, so naturally they looked down on Chen Dong even more.
Chen Dong didn't seem to care.
Chen Dong didn't care, but Annie, who came with him, couldn't sit still.
Anne glared at the people from before and, in fluent English, sneered, "Who do you think you are? In front of my boss, you're nothing but a fart!"
The other person glanced at Annie, but didn't even reply, only giving her a disdainful look.
"you!"
Anne flew into a rage instantly.
The other party's actions did not cause much harm, but were extremely insulting.
Anne stood up, ready to rush over and argue with the other person.
At this moment, Chen Dong grabbed Annie and gestured for her to sit down.
Annie gritted her teeth; only Chen Dong could control this genius girl's fiery temper.
Chen Dong said in a low voice, "This time, our goal is to fleece them, not to argue with them. Let them be smug for a while, and you just watch how I crush them!"
"Great! Boss, I believe in you, keep it up!" Annie's eyes lit up immediately, and she had even more confidence in Chen Dong.
Annie didn't even ask Chen Dong how exactly the game was going to work.
However, as long as Chen Dong speaks, Annie believes him completely.
Meanwhile, the auction proceeded smoothly.
The people around Chen Dong didn't like him. They were all whispering and talking amongst themselves, but Chen Dong's side was very quiet.
Little did they know, Chen Dong actually preferred this tranquility.
If someone disturbs him, it will easily interrupt Chen Dong's thoughts. In this way, Chen Dong can concentrate on harvesting the韭菜 (a metaphor for exploiting others).
Time passed by, second by second.
As time went on, the previous oil fields were auctioned off.
At this time, Chen Dong also became somewhat interested in a newly discovered oil field.
This oil field has very high reserves; it is numbered 11, and the starting bid is 700 million.
However, because the oil field's extraction environment is extremely harsh, many people are considering this.
After all, if an oil field encounters an accident, large-scale collapses can easily occur due to the soil layer.
If this happens, all previous investments will suffer significant losses.
The entire mining line, in particular, is worth hundreds of millions just for its mining equipment.
If all the machinery and equipment collapse into the oil field, it's as good as being scrapped.
However, if a large amount of manpower and resources are invested, from the perspective of maximizing benefits, this advantage is not particularly outstanding.
Chen Dong didn't care about these things; even a small mosquito is still a piece of meat.
In addition, Chen Dong also wanted to test the waters and see how the audience would react after he made his offer.
Thinking it over, Chen Dong raised the sign.
Chen Dong offered 800 million.
Unexpectedly, the Mitsui Group immediately raised their sign and offered 1 billion.
Chen Dong frowned slightly.
At this moment, the Mitsui Group employees launched into a tirade of sarcastic remarks.
Annie translated in unison, meaning that Chen Dong, this Chinese businessman, was not worthy of getting his hands on this oil field.
In fact, Chen Dong should get out of here.
The Mitsui Group's appalling attitude goes beyond mere business competition; it represents contempt for China and an insult to Chen Dong himself.
Chen Dong took a deep breath, and then the corners of his mouth turned up.
good!
very good!
According to Chen Dong's plan, he will trick a lot of people tonight.
Unexpectedly, the Mitsui Group came to them on its own initiative.
Chen Dong silently made up his mind that tonight, he would teach these small landlords of the Mitsui Group what cruelty really meant!
After that, Chen Dong did not continue to bid, but gave up on the spot.
Upon seeing this, the Mitsui Group bidders spoke rapidly and incoherently towards Chen Dong.
Annie frowned; clearly, these words were unpleasant to hear, and she hesitated whether to translate them for Chen Dong.
Seeing this, Chen Dong sneered, "These trash words don't need translating."
"Yes, boss."
At this point, the next oil field appeared.
"Oil Field No. 33, starting bid 500 million!"
"The auction will now begin!"
Soon, the auction began, and the bidding was fierce.
After one round, Mitsui Group raised its bid: "1 billion!"
These words caused an uproar and shocked the entire audience.
Mitsui Group doubled the price of Oilfield No. 33, seemingly determined to acquire it!
At this moment, the representative from the United States also raised his placard: "Offer 1.5 billion!"
The Mitsui Group employees whispered amongst themselves, seemingly hesitant about whether to go against the United States.
Just then, Chen Dong raised his sign: "I bid 1.6 billion."
"you……"
The Mitsui Group executives were seething with hatred; after all, they didn't want to go against their American "daddy."
However, if Chinese merchants were to participate, the situation would be entirely different.
Next, Chen Dong, the US, and the Mitsui Group will compete for it.
