Chapter 1851

"Oh, other oil companies."

Li Zitao's smile became playful: "David, I just want to discuss this matter with you. Let's go to the office to talk about it."

"A whisky first. Would you like some ice?" In the office, Li Zitao asked, holding up a crystal bottle.

"Yes, thank you."

David looked at the furnishings in his office and joked, "this office, you don't use more than 80 hours a year, but it's still the most gorgeous."

"And the biggest."

Li Zitao stood in front of the window, handed him the whisky and said with a smile, "the scenery here is also the best. I think this is the advantage of being a boss."

"Yes, boss." David raised his glass with a smile.

"A competent boss who can bring you wealth and reputation." Li Zitao and he raised their glasses together and killed half of them in one mouthful.

Over the years, his drinking capacity is getting better and better, half a glass of whisky, the whole person seems to be a lot of spirit.

"Charlie, what do you want to talk about?" David took the subject to business.

"Oh, yes."

Li Zitao put his glass on the table, opened the drawer and took out several different reports.

"I know the benefits of Exxon, Chevron and Texaco, which have not been very good these years. These reports are enough to prove it!"

David looked at him with a serious expression.

Put down the glass and pick up the report, page by page.

The data inside is shocking.

The data should have been confidential and would not be known to anyone outside.

Some of the detailed figures are even more detailed than he knows, which should not have happened.

But it happened, and it was in front of me.

"What do you want to know?"

"You're wrong. It's not what I want to know. It's clear in the report."

"Exxon's earnings have fallen year after year, and if it goes on like this, it can barely make ends meet."

"It's been two years since chevron made a profit... That's strange!"

"Because according to the company's latest quarterly results, its first half profit should be $3 million."

Seeing that David's face had turned livid, Li Zitao continued to point to the last report: "the worst thing is Texaco, which has been losing money for five years in a row."

David wanted to retort, but he couldn't say a word.

Because every word Li Zitao said was true, he could not use any excuse to refute each other.

"These are just immediate difficulties. The board of directors is determined to turn the situation around. We are looking for new investors and actively expanding the market."

"No hope." Li Zi Tao was determined.

"As one of the shareholders of Mobil, you should know exactly what the discovery of Bakken oil represents."

"Even if affected by the war, oil prices will remain stable and may increase slightly."

"But it's not enough to turn things around."

After David digested what he said, Li said with a smile, "but I'm very interested in the search for investors you mentioned."

When he saw the report, David guessed his purpose.

But when I heard him say so, I still felt angry and powerless.

"What do you want to do?"

David's momentum did not naturally weaken, because he did not have enough strength to fight Li Zitao.

In fact, in his heart, he also wanted someone to change the situation.

The decline of Exxon, Chevron and Texaco has become an indisputable fact.

It's just that they don't want to admit it!

It was the man standing in front of him that caused this situation.

With the strong rise of Mobil, it has mastered a large number of crude oil reserves, and first occupied the Persian Gulf, cooperating with the Sheikh to open up the international market.

Let them lose all the opportunities, step by step, step by step.

The market never cares about the cause of things, or the feelings of whose care.

The survival of the fittest is as cruel as nature.

If it wasn't for Mobil, it would take a step ahead and occupy a lot of oil reserves.

Not to mention Texaco, Exxon and Chevron will not end up like this.

At that time, they could have Exxon or chevron annex Texaco.

Or to carry on the merger and acquisition, bankruptcy reorganization.

Any method can effectively solve this problem.

Even Exxon and Chevron could be merged to annex Texaco.

By then, the new oil giant will have a quarter of the U.S. and a sixth of the North American market.

It's just an erection. The fact is that Mobil has discovered those fields.

But David has another way. He's just waiting for the right time.As long as he can survive the current crisis, he believes that new opportunities will emerge.

All they need is a little more patience. When the opportunity comes up, they should hold on to it and never let it go.

What he didn't expect was that Exxon, Chevron and Texaco were at their weakest point when they were targeted by a hungry wolf.

"Texaco filed for bankruptcy, Wells Fargo will help it complete the restructuring, and Mobil will wholly purchase chevron."

"There's enough money for Exxon to change." Li Zitao's proposal surprised David.

"Do you want chevron?"

He did not say, "why not Exxon?"

"Wondering why it's not Exxon?" Li said voluntarily.

"You're right. So why? " David admits frankly.

"Because I prefer Chevron to Chevron, that's it."

Of course, Li will not admit that Chevron has the land he wants.

If David knows, after leaving this office.

He would do everything possible, even by manpower, to dig the land three feet and turn it upside down.

That's not what he wanted.

"Think about it, David. It's not bad for you."

"You will hold more shares in Mobil, have more rights and earn more profits," Li said flatly

"I don't think anyone will refuse such a thing. It's good for you and for me." Li Zitao put his arm around his shoulder and said, "this is a win-win situation."

David was silent, but make complaints about himself: win win?

If he believed any word Li Zitao said, he must have been fascinated by the devil.

"Charlie, it's so sudden... I need time to think about it, and I need to consult with someone else. It's not up to me to make decisions on my own."

David starts to push back. He needs time now to calm himself down.

Then carefully analyze each sentence, each word and the tone of the other.

"Of course, I just hope that we can work together more closely and make more money together."

Li Zitao said with a smile, showing an unusual calmness.

But he still believed in his own perception, this greedy hungry wolf must smell the smell of blood, will take the initiative to open a big mouth.

"Thank you."

After taking a sip of whiskey from his glass, David said with a smile, "I'll go first. I'll contact you if I have any news."

"Don't make me wait too long, David."

"After all, my patience is not enough," he murmured
