Chapter 1036: 1 all-or-nothing story

Francis looked surprisedly at the Getty family, as well as Li Changheng from all major forces in California.

This is Paul Getty, who has maintained his position as the richest man in the United States for nearly 20 years. Even if the old man is really old, the family is in trouble.

But Paul Getty is, no matter what, a tycoon who has been in the United States for decades.

But just after thinking about the idea of ​​cultivating the United States in his mind, Francis shook his head secretly.

The old Getty is indeed very capable, but compared to the young man in front of him, it seems incomparable.

Regardless of age, mentality and cruelty, any big guy who compares with Li Changheng will be compared to him.

After all, the time it took Li Changheng to succeed was too short, and compared to Paul Getty, the old Rockefeller, the old Morgan, and the old DuPont and other wealthy second generations, Li Changheng is the real self-made.

Now as long as the young man in front of him is willing, Li Changheng will definitely get the final ownership of the gold mine.

The declining Getty family, the California Crude Oil Mining Company, which is now in panic, and the Black Mining Company, whether in terms of cash flow, connections, and political power.

It is definitely not as good as Lee Chang-hyung, who owns the Citi consortium and has a deep relationship with many consortia.

Moreover, in the past few operations, Citi’s shareholders and other consortia have long been conquered by his vision and ability to make money.

Otherwise, if Li Changheng wants to obtain the status of special envoy for negotiations this time, it is not enough to rely on Benjamin Arthur's consent.

Behind them stood not only many senators and congressmen, but also consortia from the East Coast, the South and the Great Lakes.

That is, no one can refuse his participation in the business field, and even wish him to participate.

As for the Getty family, perhaps the seven oil sisters of the United States, just waiting for the old Getty to take the initiative to jump out and share the victory with Li Changheng.

It is a pity that Li Changheng's eyes are not only on the gold mine.

In addition, other consortia and various forces within Citigroup want to take advantage of him, they must be prepared to be bitten by him, and even be taken advantage of by him instead.

-----

Li Changheng actually looks down on gold mines that require years of calculation to produce profits.

On the contrary, using gold mines as a gimmick and circling money on Wall Street is definitely higher and faster than waiting for the industry to bring in income, and it is easier to realize the benefits.

Once the interest of investors was mobilized, Li Changheng easily took a large profit and took a stable position.

Putting this money into the stock market and buying high-quality stocks owned by major consortia is at least 10 times more profitable than just keeping a gold mine.

And since Francis mentioned the Getty family, he focused on the giant oil field that was nationalized by Kuwait and Saudi Arabia and is located in a trivial zone on the border of the two countries.

The old Getty’s inability to force Saudi Arabia and Kuwait to make concessions does not mean that Li Changheng or other consortia have the ability to keep the oil fields.

After all, the old Getty can be said to have offended all the oil companies in the United States, even England and the Netherlands. He himself is unwilling to give up the shares and interests of the company or the oil field. Of course, major consortia are willing to see the Getty family unlucky.

Not only does it export bad anger, but it also loses a competitor.

After Li Changheng came to be interested, he left with Francis because the Capitol was not a suitable place to talk.

As soon as the two left, someone immediately confided in the news.

After he and Francis were protected by 18 bodyguards, they went to a golf course on the outskirts of Washington. Because it involved negotiations with Saudi Arabia on oil, some insiders knew that a gold mine was also involved.

Soon there were several people from mining and oil companies rushing over to the golf course.

Still not knowing that he has become the focus of more attention, Li Changheng and Francis changed the number of jerseys and talked about the gold mine while playing.

I quickly understood the cause and effect of the matter.

Busan Mining Company is a family-owned mining company established during the gold rush in the 19th century.

The scale has always been small, but because generations of people have only been engaged in the mining industry, they have a lot of reputation in the industry.

Three years ago, when the elder Bussan was at the helm of Bussan Mining, his son Wills Bussan Jr. had a dream.

Of course, the so-called dreams and subsequent stories were all proactively spoken by Busan himself during negotiations with the people of Black Mining not long ago.

In his dream, he saw a mountain like 4 fingers underneath a mountain with millions of ounces of gold hidden.

This is nothing at all.

Thinking day by day and dreaming at night, Wells himself didn't care much at first, but the pictures in the dream were still clearly printed in his mind.

It wasn't until two years ago that he saw a photo published by a geography magazine, which was exactly the same as his picture in his memory. Wilston packed his luggage and flew to Indonesia with excitement.

This may really be God's will.

Or Wells had accidentally seen the photo a long time ago but didn't care or forgot it, and when he remembered it in his dream, he mistakenly thought he had dreamed it.

Or get God's guidance ~lightnovelpub.net~ and the third possibility is that Wells just wants to tell his story more legendary to attract investors.

Regardless of the reason, the results of Wells's first visit to Indonesia to find a gold mine were a little unsatisfactory.

The samples sent to Columbia University are just as Li Changheng understands. The gold content is not high, and the mining area is in the rain forest.

Excessive mining costs are not enough to make Old Busan or other senior practitioners take a risk.

When the oil crisis broke out two years ago, Old Busan was anxious at the same time facing the rapidly rising labor costs and mining costs of several mines under his own.

Because of my old age, I was only tired for a few months and died of a heart attack one night.

This is a bolt from the blue for Busan Mining, which is already operating hard.

In addition, the bank stepped up to take back the loan, and Wells first sold all his property and borrowed a lot of money before he paid enough inheritance tax and got all the shares of his own mining company.

But after that, Wells had to sell a lot of assets to keep the company.

But only half a year later, Busan Mining has changed from a medium-sized mining company to a garbage company about to go bankrupt.

I don't know if Wells Busan is desperate or really confident.

After seeing an article named Mike Ashtar published in the Mining Magazine about his analysis of the distribution of Indonesia's mining industry.

Wells sold his watch, car, and house, and moved to his girlfriend's house at the same time.

With the last sum of 160,000 US dollars, I flew to Indonesia to find Mike Ashtar, who graduated from Oxford University and has been in the mining industry for a while.

The partnership continues to develop the gold mine three years ago.

It seems that the result may be good now, at least this story should have moved and attracted many people.
