Reborn Capital Madman

Happy Energy was founded during the first world oil crisis more than ten years ago. At that time, the international oil giants who monopolized the fuel supply market in Hong Kong not only raised prices significantly several times, but were unable to guarantee supply, which seriously threatened Hong Kong society.

Stability and economic development, Gao Xian took advantage of his unique advantages and traveled around to solve the huge gap between supply and demand. As a result, he made great contributions and was invited by Hong Kong Governor MacLehose to join the Hong Kong Government Executive Council and received the honor of being awarded a CBE medal.

As a reward, he became Sir Gao.

Compared with Gaoyi's capital operation in the oil field, Gaoxing Energy's investments in the oil industry are mainly very specific physical projects. For example, the Qingyi Island Oil Port Terminal in Hong Kong has enough capacity to match the specific energy resources launched by the Hong Kong Futures Exchange.

Oil depots with futures contracts, several factories within Xiangjiang’s environmental tolerance, gas stations all over Xiangjiang, etc.

Today, Happy Energy accounts for half of the fuel supply market in Xiangjiang. As for the international oil companies that have been robbed of their market share, either because of some interest cooperation, or because the Xiangjiang market is ultimately limited and not worth the bloodshed.

They all accepted this fate.

In the final analysis, whoever lets them slip the chain and wants to take advantage of the situation and cause resentment among the people of Hong Kong, even the Hong Kong government under the control of Gui Lao is anxious, then they must accept the reality that local enterprises in Hong Kong dominate the market.

What's more, when the market situation comes, it is not necessarily possible to earn money quickly by working in the real estate industry through part-time jobs. For example, Mobil Oil developed the land at the Lai Chi Kok oil depot in Kowloon into Mobil New Village, which can be said to be a huge profit.

.

Outside of Xiangjiang, Kaixin Energy has broader development, including a series of oil fields and refineries in Southeast Asia, the European North Sea, Canada, the Gulf of Mexico and other regions.

As for the actual control of Happy Energy, there is no ambiguity. Gao Xian married the eldest daughter of the Yi family, so naturally there were many ready-made resources available more than ten years ago. For example, one of Yi Huirong's uncles graduated from Princeton University.

He has a doctorate in chemistry, and the long-term heritage accumulated by the family is reflected in this.

The current position of Happy Energy is definitely not as high as that of international oil giants like the Seven Sisters of Standard Oil, but it is an undisputed giant in Hong Kong. Its decision to become a publicly listed company this year is well received, and it is especially in line with the checks and balances of power.

That set of upper-level subtle psychology.

An interesting anecdote related to Happy Energy that began to spread was caused by the No. 30 oil field on Eugene Island in the Gulf of Mexico, where major interests were transferred to Happy Energy.

The Eugene Island Oilfield is located in the exclusive economic zone of the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, more than 130 kilometers away from the coast of Louisiana. It was a series of blocks put up for bidding during the world oil crisis more than ten years ago. Until now,

On the grounds of damaging the environment, the federal and state governments of the United States have almost refused to approve it. Anyway, the "rebel" OPEC has basically forced the "rebellious" Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries into a defeated situation. There is no need to dig and dig on its own territory, which will affect

Feng shui to the holiday beach.

When bidding for the block at that time, Gao Xian combined resources including Wellington Bank, the Bush family, and BP to win the No. 30 Eugene Island oil field in one fell swoop.

At that stage, Huifeng Bank and Gao Xian, who had not yet shown the strength to threaten their status, were in the honeymoon period of their relationship. Taipan Saya followed the example of his predecessor Sander Shi and supported the world's shipping king Bao Yugang, and was particularly interested in Gao Xian.

, unlike Shen Bi and Pu Weishi who later had evil intentions.

Gao Xian was lucky. To be more precise, he drew the right cards according to the diagram. The actual reserves of Eugene Island No. 30 Oil Field were considerable. After several offshore platforms were put into production one after another, the output reached its maximum in 1977. At its peak, daily crude oil production exceeded 95,000 barrels.

Gulf Western CEO Ronald Zegler was re-employed by Gao Xian at that time, and was transferred from the beleaguered Nicholson to manage the interests of this area.

Since we have reached the peak of production, it naturally means that the Eugene Island No. 30 oil field will eventually be exhausted.

In fact, whether it is theory, experience, or actual performance, after entering the 1980s, the Eugene Island No. 30 Oilfield began to obviously lose its glory and ushered in a depletion period. The most important indicator is daily production. , reduced to 4,000 barrels, the benefit-cost ratio is far worse than before, and we should even start to consider how to deal with the big holes in the seabed.

Also after entering the 1980s, the relationship between Gao Xian and Huifeng Bank also became complicated and subtle. For example, after Taipan was replaced by Shen Bi from Sha Ya, Li Bancheng became his popular person.

Just like the bank that was grinningly using the right to issue money as bait to try to drag down high-yield banks with poor management, Hui Feng Bank chose to withdraw from the Eugene Island No. 30 oil field.

Gao Xian, who knew it well, didn't take it to heart, but the shares of the Eugene Island No. 30 Oilfield, which had seemingly entered a period of depletion, did require skill to handle. As Gulf Western was a listed company, there were inevitably many restrictions. The best way to take over the deal was Xia is Gaoxing Energy, which has not yet been listed on the market.

From a business perspective alone, Gao Xian does not suffer at all from the overall perspective.

In the past two years, especially last year, the Eugene Island No. 30 Oilfield has shown a mysterious situation, which has attracted the attention of Huaer Street Daily. It specially compiled a production comparison table. The Eugene Island No. 30 Oilfield The daily production has steadily rebounded to 15,000 barrels.

This is not a simple anecdote, but is closely related to the jingling of real money.

You know, despite the continued decline in global crude oil prices, the crude oil produced by the No. 30 Oilfield on Eugene Island is dessert oil with very low sulfur content. Crude oil is a very complex mixture, and many oil companies must Buy sweet oil like the one from Eugene Island's No. 30 field and mix it with higher-sulphur crude to meet the standards set by the deal.

Now, the daily output of Eugene Island No. 30 Oilfield has inexplicably remained at 15,000 barrels. Although it is far less than the peak of more than 95,000 barrels, it is still profitable.

In this regard, Royal Dutch Shell, the owner of the adjacent block of Eugene Island No. 30 oil field, is not calm. Has my oil flowed to your territory?

Of course, Happy Energy cannot accept being touched. Even if it is jealous, don't talk nonsense. Such metaphysical issues can only be left to scientists to explain.

But experts also have somewhat different opinions. After all, the geology of the seabed is so complex, and the technological development of the oil industry is also changing with each passing day. For example, when the Eugene Island No. 30 oil field first started to be exploited, water was injected into it. By the late 1970s, And inject gas.

The last and more acceptable explanation is that the unexpected source of oil in the No. 30 Oilfield on Eugene Island should be caused by fault migration in older strata such as the Jurassic and Cretaceous. From the looks of it, it should be able to be exploited for more than ten years. .

No matter which aspect you look at, Happy Energy is naturally willing to accept this statement. Well, Shell Oil should not come to interfere with it. That is unkind!

After this anecdote spread to Xiangjiang, many people just laughed it off at first. Li Bancheng, for example, did not believe it. It was obvious that Gao Xing Energy was preparing to be listed on the market. This must be a trick to deceive people and make it easier to cut leeks.

However, Li Bancheng was always cautious. When discussing matters with Huifeng Daban Pu Weishi, he specifically asked the other party for confirmation.

As a result, Puweishi looked unlucky, but thanks to Shen Bi's clever move, the oil field had nothing to do with Huifeng anymore, and now it could only make money through the listing of Gaohua Energy.

After Li Bancheng heard this, his heart suddenly sank. Pu Weishi's implication was that the "rejuvenation" of Eugene Island No. 30 Oilfield was indeed a reality. This was too "metaphysical".

Pu Weishi said that of course Huifeng supports Dajiang Industrial's financing. After all, Huifeng can also make a lot of money, but now the momentum of Happy Energy is gaining momentum. If it were Huifeng, he would also hold the currency to buy Happy Energy. Stocks, you'd better wait patiently.

Li Bancheng couldn't help but sigh in front of Pu Weishi, what the hell is this? I originally thought that Happy Energy was just playing tricks in order to get listed, but I didn't expect it to be true. Could this be luck?

Pu Weishi also had a look of deep fear on his face. His opponent was very powerful and he was so lucky. How could he fight?
