Chapter 494 Fairbanks' Trick
Although the banquet was still going on, it was obvious that although the people present were chatting casually, their main thoughts were still in the back room, waiting for the evaluation results of the experts.If the value of the three patented technologies proposed by BP is higher than that of Forte Petroleum Holdings, then Fang Mingyuan, the final decision maker, is likely to choose to sell the molecular oil from the Calafal Oilfield in his hands to BP.
Then, Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company will face a bigger dilemma At this point, if he has sufficient authorization, when Fang Mingyuan puts forward these conditions, he agrees to them and forms a legally effective agreement. Even if Fairbanks has eight more heads, it will not be able to change the status quo.
Now that Forte Petroleum Holdings has been cornered by BP, Dudley doesn't think that the three patents that Fairbanks took out will be worth less than his two.
And even if those three patents were equivalent to these two of his own, Fang Mingyuan had nothing to say when he chose British Petroleum.After all, the export volume of 30 barrels of oil per day is also a considerable amount. After reaching an agreement with BP, this oil can be saved.As a businessman, which one is not for maximizing profits?
Time passed by, and when the tableware in front of everyone had already been removed and the black tea had been drunk for a long time, there was finally news from the expert group——as everyone’s opinions were difficult to unify, the five It is difficult to make a clear judgment on the value of the patent for a while, and it will take at least one day.
Fairbanks frowned and muttered a few words softly, but Dudley let out a sigh of relief. In any case, it is always a good thing that there is no immediate execution of the death penalty.
Fairbanks was also a little displeased. He didn't know what kind of patent Forte Oil Holdings had come up with that would make those experts come to such a conclusion.Or did the other party notice the little tricks he did inside?
Although the transfer of these three patents was approved by the headquarters of BP, Fairbanks was a little dissatisfied.Therefore, when he selected patents, he deliberately chose a patent whose utility would be greatly reduced without the supporting patents owned by BP.It's just that people who don't have in-depth research in this field will not be aware of this.In this way, the value of that patent will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.
But now he couldn't say anything in front of Dudliwei and Prince Abdullah, so he could only drag Mihalo to bid farewell to Prince Abdullah.
After Dudliwei also turned to leave, Prince Abdullah dragged Fang Mingyuan back to his study in his villa.
"Fang, that Fairbanks is indeed very cunning and has three patents. It sounds more sincere than Forte Oil Holdings, but he secretly played tricks," Prince Abdullah said angrily.Naturally, he hoped that Fang Mingyuan would completely kick BP away with one kick, and get the Causel Manor as soon as possible.But this is related to Fang Mingyuan's vital interests, so he can only be on the sidelines like this.
After listening to his detailed explanation, Fang Mingyuan understood what Fairbanks had done in it, and he couldn't help but lamented that there was nothing wrong with profiteering.This is someone who is sensible among the experts invited by Prince Abdullah. Otherwise, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to know that there is such a trap in it for several years, so I was fooled by Fairbanks.
"Prince Abdullah, I assure you, no matter who I sell the oil to in the end, the Causal Manor will definitely fall into your hands. Don't worry so much all day, okay?" Fang Mingyuan said helplessly , "It's really impossible, Prince Abdullah, you come forward and exchange oil for Kauser Manor, can Fudi Petroleum Holdings not sell it at this time?"
Prince Abdullah waved his hand and said: "Fang, it's not that I don't want to do this, but that if I do this, I will completely offend BP. You are from China, and the British can't influence your country, but here we are." It's completely different. If BP thinks that I intend to fight against them, the emir will have to give me some symbolic punishment. Although it is symbolic, it is also very disadvantageous to me. So, no As a last resort, I will definitely not formally agree to supply any oil to Forte Oil Holding Company. However, if you sell the molecular oil from the Calafal Oilfield to BP, how can Forte Oil Holding Co. Sell Manor to you?"
Fang Mingyuan chuckled a few times and said, "You will understand when the secret must not be leaked. However, it can't be so cheap, this Fairbanks..." Fang Mingyuan rolled his eyes, and he already had an idea in his heart .
Fairbanks and Mihalo returned to the BP office in Kuwait with some trepidation. The telephone on the desk rang before the seat was warmed up and the tea was not served.Michelle quickly picked it up.
"This is Abdullah, let Mr. Fairbanks answer the phone." Prince Abdullah's cold voice came from the phone.Even though it was June, Mihalo could still feel the chill in Prince Abdullah's tone. It was obvious that this one was not in a good mood right now.
Mihalo quickly pulled the phone in front of Fairbanks, and said softly: "Prince Abdullah's call." Fairbanks quickly answered it.
"Mr. Fairbanks, I don't understand. Do you really want to get these oils? If you say yes, what's the point of engaging in these small tricks?" Prince Abdullah said on the phone. You are welcome, "Mr. Fairbanks, it is because your company has been very happy to cooperate with our country in the past, and I believe that you can give a better price, so I persuaded Fang to allow you to participate. But you are like this Repay my kindness?"
Fairbanks felt a "click" in his heart at the time, and immediately understood that Prince Abdullah probably knew about his hands and feet.Before he had time to think about how to answer, the phone had already hung up.
"Damn heretic" Fairbanks gritted his teeth, "The yellow-skinned monkey is a proud and complacent guy, and a country the size of a palm dares to be so arrogant." "What's wrong? What happened?" Michelle quickly asked.
Fairbanks threw the phone on the phone and said bitterly: "They saw through the patent matter, that bastard prince Abdullah dared to threaten me"
After listening to Fairbanks' retelling, Mihalo said helplessly: "Then what shall we do next?" He now feels that it was a mistake for the headquarters to send Fairbanks to Kuwait.With a racial discrimination mentality, he always carries a sense of arrogance when dealing with orientals. This kind of attitude is nothing in front of ordinary people, but when facing upper-class people like Prince Abdullah, he is very arrogant. It is easy to arouse the resentment of the other party.And with antipathy, it will naturally dislike the other party, and when both sides see each other pleasing to the eye, it would be strange if nothing happens.
But at this time, Mihalo had no time to complain about the headquarters. The key now was how to appease Prince Abdullah's dissatisfaction as soon as possible.
Although Kuwait is indeed, as Fairbanks said, compared with the United Kingdom, it is only a palm-sized country, and it cannot be compared with the United Kingdom in terms of national strength or economic strength, but the country has the world's largest Four of the rich oil reserves, while other Arab countries that have good relations with Kuwait occupy this Middle East oil depot.If BP wants to develop stably, it cannot do without the Middle East. If Prince Abdullah is really annoyed, Fairbanks may not be punished multiple times, but he will definitely be transferred from the Middle East. that's it.As Fairbanks' deputy, he might become a scapegoat.
Fairbanks let out a long sigh. He was just talking here. If he really faced Prince Abdullah and Fang Mingyuan, he would also understand that his words would definitely cause great trouble. "What else can I do? Find a way to save it"
At this time, the phone rang again, but this time, it was the person in charge of monitoring Dudley from BP who called back. Shortly after Dudley returned to the office of Fudi Petroleum Holdings Company, he actually went to Abdullah the prince's villa
Dudliwei was also very strange. He just returned to his office with a bit of frustration, and when he was worrying about how to face the result, Fang Mingyuan suddenly called and asked him to come to Prince Abdullah's villa immediately.Although Dudley didn't understand why, he still answered the call.
Fang Mingyuan was the only one who received him. The servants in the villa all retreated after serving drinks and snacks. Only Chen Zhong sat in the corner of the room.This made Dudley Wei even more strange.
"Fang, you asked me to come, but what's the matter?" Dudley asked.
"Mr. Dudley, do you think your Fudi Petroleum Holding Company has a chance of winning now?" Fang Mingyuan sighed and said, "It's not that I didn't give your company a chance, and I think the conditions I offered are not too much. Although Your company wants to transfer two patented technologies to me, but on the one hand, you can solve the shortage of oil, and on the other hand, I will also pay the transfer fee. Wouldn’t it be better to transfer them to me than to keep them and eventually belong to BP? "
Dudley is speechless
