Abuda Mohammed Sabah was speechless.
As the richest man in the Middle East, Kuwait's favorite thing to do is to hit people with things.
But now.
Someone actually threw money at my face.
Feeling humiliated!
But everyone knows about Japan's arrogance.
When buying a building in the United States, the price was already agreed upon but then the price was increased by $200 million.
The Americans were humiliated to the point of their knees weakening, and the only thing they did was to call us daddy.
Can't compare.
It's really incomparable! There was a burst of whispers.
After Abuda Mohammed Sabah discussed with the Sabah family, the faces of these Middle Eastern chiefs all looked quite strange.
With a look of astonishment, the look in his eyes was no different from looking at a sand sculpture.
What is it like to be treated as a fool? If it was in the past, I would definitely try my best to explain myself if I was treated as a fool.
But I forgot one sentence at that time.
Psychopaths will always try desperately to prove that they are not mentally ill.
Now?
Being watched by a group of Middle Eastern chiefs.
Nagano Nao used his inflated skill of "I am a nouveau riche", and his eyes were filled with arrogance, whether you accept it or not.
"Is this little Japanese's brain broken?"
"The average price of oil in the past fifty years has only been sixteen dollars a barrel. Doesn't this guy know that?"
"Is he teasing us?"
"The Japanese are not particularly sane. This group of guys was like this when they bought houses in the United States before."
“They seem to really enjoy buying houses.”
"In addition to houses, these guys also bought 70 percent of Europe's luxury goods."
"Oh my God! This little Japan is not going to buy our Kuwait!"
"Should we sell it to him?"
“.”
A group of Middle Eastern chiefs gathered together to discuss.
After discussion.
Abuda Mohammed Sabah put his hands together, bowed with the most solemn and respectful courtesy, and said:
"Dear Mr. Nagano, your generosity and generosity are really surprising. Please allow me to thank you on behalf of Kuwait and the Sabah family for your support and trust in Kuwait!"
"Mr. Sabah is so polite. Japan is a peace-loving country. Kuwait is being invaded by evil forces at this time. Anyone with a conscience will lend a helping hand and help Kuwait restore peace as soon as possible."
Japan loves peace?
Do you think I'm stupid?
Abuda Mohammed Sabah really wanted to roll his eyes, but he still needed to maintain enough respect for the financial sponsor, even if he was a rich man.
Show a sincere expression.
Abuda Mohammed Sabah was moved and said: "Mr. Nagano's kindness and mercy are so touching. God will surely bless you!
However, we Kuwaitis have always been honest and fair in doing business.
Mr. Nagano's ability to lend a helping hand to Kuwait at this time is already the greatest help to the Kuwaiti people and the Sabah family.
If a long-term premium of thirty dollars a barrel is accepted, it will bring shame to the entire Sabah family and the conscience of the entire Kuwaiti people will be condemned.
so.
On behalf of Kuwait National Petroleum Company, I ask Mr. Nagano to accept the oil price of ten dollars a barrel, otherwise all Kuwaiti people will no longer have the face to serve the true God. "
"Your Excellency Sabah is really too particular, but please don't feel guilty about it. Kuwait is being invaded by Iraq at this time and must be under tremendous pressure. Nagano is very willing to do his best to help Kuwait out of its predicament."
"That is why Kuwait cannot accept such a premium purchase agreement. If we do something that goes against our conscience, God will blame us."
“.”
Things are getting weird.
It's like two tycoons showing off their wealth, and the US dollar has become meaningless waste paper.
Abuda Mohammed Sabah was determined to sell the oil at $10, as if saying you are looking down on me if the price goes higher.
Nagano Nao also insisted on thirty dollars a bucket, and he didn't seem to be giving me any face when bargaining.
Each of them has their own agenda.
No one was willing to expose it.
From the perspective of the Sabah family, Kuwait has been occupied by Iraq. If they don’t take back the territory, any price will be a blank check.
Now, the real task is to gain support from other countries and drive out old Saddam.
The guy in front of him has the power of a Japanese financial group behind him. If he gives up a little bit of benefits and gets Japan's support, it will naturally be a huge profit.
Nagano Nao's idea is much simpler.
Old Sa is awesome now, but because of what he did, the whole world dislikes him.
All countries have long been fed up with the predicament of the two oil crises. Now that crude oil prices have risen, except for the Soviet Union and Mao Zedong, the four major gangsters are all victims. It would be strange if they did not unite to beat them up.
The same is true for Japan.
By then, you don’t need to think about it to know that they will shout to defeat evil forces, uphold justice, support peace, and support US military operations.
Once the situation stabilizes and the Sabah family returns to power, the blank check can be cashed.
certainly.
In a short period of time, this transaction will definitely lose a lot of money.
But sometimes a good partner cannot be bought with money.
Just like Japan.
Our international business reputation is excellent and we are a very welcome partner in any country.
Nothing else.
Congenital deficiencies after the war.
If I don’t have a good business reputation anymore, I’ll have no business in the future.
The same is true in Kuwait.
The population is sparse, the military is outsourced, and although life is good, it is also based on good business reputation to make a living.
If the fairness and integrity of the Soviet Union, Mao Zedong, the United States, any of the five rogue countries, or Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc. were not reflected, he would not dare to sign a 30-year long-term purchase agreement.
Doing business requires integrity and fairness.
If Kuwait suffers a loss now, it will suffer in silence in the future and will have to swallow all the grievances.
that's all.
The scene was plunged into a strange atmosphere.
Seeing that it was no use to argue like this, Nagano simply said straight to the point: "Mr. Sabah, please don't feel guilty. Nagano has no other reason for offering this long-term agreement price.
One reason is Felina.
Now that Kuwait is occupied by Iraq, the Sabah family and the entire Kuwait are facing the most difficult time. I feel obligated to do my part to help the Sabah family drive out the Iraqi invader. "
“The second reason.
Like the Nagano and Sabah families, they are businessmen who value integrity and fairness.
The reason for helping Kuwait at this time is because we are optimistic about the future price of crude oil.
But if Kuwait is occupied by Iraq, it will be difficult for us to find a better partner, so helping Kuwait drive out this bastard Iraq is a top priority.
I think Kuwait must be under tremendous pressure to come up with $20 billion in military spending. We are here to help Kuwait drive out the invaders. I believe that no matter how much the oil price rises in the future, Kuwait will definitely abide by the agreement reached today within the long-term agreement."
Nagano Nao repeated his purpose.
Abuda Mohammed Sabah was obviously surprised. He didn't expect the other party to be so frank.
He glanced at Selena who was stunned.
I used to think that raising a daughter was a waste of money.
I just realized now that sometimes raising a daughter can be very profitable!
I had this idea.
The look in Aputa Mohammed Sabah's eyes when he looked at Felina was filled with a father's tenderness, satisfaction and relief.
"But it is indeed as you said. Kuwait is now under tremendous pressure to come up with 20 billion US dollars. That is why the Sabah family is running around hoping to get assistance."
"Now, Kuwait is in the most difficult time. You have extended a helping hand at this time. Both Kuwait and the Sabah family will always remember your kindness."
"I, Abdul Mohammed Sabah, swear to God that you, Mr. Nagano, will always be the best partner of the Sabah family and Kuwait. Within the agreed terms, no matter how the oil changes, we will definitely deliver the agreed oil to you as scheduled."
"Of course I believe in the credibility of the Sabah family and Kuwait, but I have a small request. Felina is my woman now. So..." Nagano Nao glanced at Felina, hesitant to speak. After all, as an outsider, it was difficult to say much about the other party's beliefs.
woman?
Abuda Mohammed Sabah understood immediately and immediately patted his chest and said, "I understand what Mr. Nagano means. From now on, Felina is your woman."
"Thank you so much! I promise to take good care of Felina." Nagano Nao showed Japanese politeness and bowed deeply.
Seeing how serious he was, Abuda Mohammed Sabah also bowed and said solemnly, "I, Abuda Mohammed Sabah, also promise you, Mr. Nagano, that Felina will always be loyal to you alone. God be your witness. If she dares to betray you, Abuda Mohammed Sabah will personally chop off her head to make amends for you, Mr. Nagano."
"I, Felina Sabbah, swear to God that I will always belong to Mr. Nagano alone. Please bear witness to this. If I break this oath, I am willing to be beheaded."
Nagano Nao almost fainted.
His original intention was to hope that Abuda Mohammed Sabah would give Felina the status that a woman deserves, but he did not expect that this father-in-law would be so hot-tempered.
The most outrageous thing is that the look in his eyes when he looked at his daughter was full of tenderness and doting, as if he was very satisfied that his daughter had found a good son-in-law for him.
And Felina was also very touched, as if it was an honor for her to be recognized by her father.
Are you really on the same channel?
The words are on the tip of my tongue, but I don’t know how to continue.
That's outrageous.
never mind.
It's up to you what happens with this kind of thing.
What's next.
It will be much smoother.
As an oil-producing country, Kuwait is a natural seller in the crude oil futures market and holds large short positions in the New York crude oil futures market.
Because market prices are uncertain, when oil prices rise to a certain level and you sell them, you can lock in production profits in advance.
Moreover, according to the New York NYMEX rules, Kuwait National Petroleum Corporation, as the seller, has already filled out the registered warehouse receipt.
Naoio Nagano also holds a large long position and is a natural buyer. He purchased standardized long contracts, and after closing his positions, he still has one million barrels of crude oil.
After contacting the New York Stock Exchange.
After explaining the situation here, the exchange expressed its willingness to coordinate the delivery between buyers and sellers.
As for witnessing the signing of the long-term sale and purchase agreement between the two parties, the chairman of the exchange expressed his gratitude and said that he would personally preside over the ceremony.
That day.
Naoio Nagano used a Cayman Islands company to acquire a shell oil company under the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation.
Get these done.
A group of people set out on their journey to the New York Stock Exchange.
A Boeing-modified super private jet glides smoothly over the Pacific Ocean.
The entire interior of the plane is decorated with such luxury that it is simply astonishing, with lion fur carpets, ivory decorations, and diamonds and agates inlaid everywhere. It is so magnificent that it is like a mobile treasure house in the sky.
upstart.
What a fucking nouveau riche! Nagano Nao secretly complained.
But in my heart, I secretly despise myself for only knowing how to make money but not how to spend money.
It is said that he is now worth more than one billion US dollars, but his only means of transportation is a broken Bayer.
The flight lasted ten hours.
The plane landed at Manhattan International Airport.
The rich man had already arranged a car.
The group rushed to the New York Stock Exchange in a mighty procession.
Witnessed by Carter John James, chairman of the exchange, Oman Oil Company, controlled by Cosmic Grey Wolf, and Kuwait National Petroleum Company signed a 30-year long-term purchase agreement.
Agreement provisions.
Between October 1, 1990 and October 1, 2020.
Oman Oil Company has the right to purchase 30 percent of Kuwait National Petroleum Company's crude oil production.
The target is Kuwait National Petroleum Company's highest standard light crude oil.
At the same time, Kuwait National Petroleum Corporation is also obliged to perform in accordance with the sales agreement and shall not violate the agreement unless there are force majeure factors.
Many terms.
After review by lawyers from both sides, both sides were very satisfied.
The exchange presided over the entire signing ceremony, took photos and videos, preserved evidence, and both parties shook hands and chatted happily.
Get these done.
That is, the October crude oil futures position has been delivered.
Although the futures market had risen to thirty-seven dollars per barrel, according to the current agreement, with the help of the exchange, the delivery units were coordinated and the price was finally settled at thirty dollars per barrel.
One million barrels of oil.
That’s seven dollars less than the current market price.
Tokyo.
Three Waters Club.
The presidents of Maruzen Oil Company, Sekisui Chemical, Cosmo Oil Company and others stood at the door and looked around.
Not far away.
A convoy of luxury cars drove up.
Wait until the car stops.
A dozen Middle Eastern men wearing white hats got out of the car.
Suddenly.
The eyes of all the presidents seemed to be filled with oil, shining with the luster of oil.
Introduced by Nao Nagano.
They greeted each other in a friendly manner and went up to the club.
But during the price negotiation, the wealthy Middle Eastern man insisted on the price of $37.
This puts Sanhe's major oil companies and chemical groups in a dilemma.
37 USD is the current price. Under normal business cooperation, a five-year contract may result in a big loss.
"Ms. Felina, our consortium is a very powerful consortium. I can assure you that no one in the world can offer Oman Oil Company a price higher than thirty dollars except our consortium."
"Since you said so, Nagano, we can make some concessions for your sake."
Hearing this.
The president of Riyan Trading Company immediately stood up and expressed his gratitude.
Felina smiled and said, "Don't thank me yet! We in Oman have to make some concessions, but we have one request."
"What request? We will try our best to meet your request."
"Well, I need you to give Nagano a week's vacation so that he can spend some time with me." Felina smiled charmingly, and everyone understood what she meant.
Nagano Nao immediately stood up: "This is impossible!"
Bang! Felina threw the crude oil sales agreement of Oman Oil Company on the table.
Thirty dollars per barrel.
Conventional five-year purchase agreement.
See this.
All the presidents present were green-eyed.
"Nagano-kun, please put yourself aside for the sake of the consortium!"
"Didn't Nagano-kun say that he was willing to sacrifice his soul for the consortium? Now it's time to sacrifice your body!"
"That's too much! This kind of work is very hard. Don't you bastards know how to pay me a little hard work fee?"
