Chapter 1709 Did I Show Off My Wealth?

Yang Cheng has been a little unlucky recently, why? Didn't he listen to Carson's words and accept the BBC's variety show, saying it was a variety show, but in fact it was an interview documentary under the cover of a variety show.

It stands to reason that I just pick it up, and it’s no big deal. Bill Gaizi often accepts similar variety shows. After the filming, he should eat and drink. He also went to the old man’s club to play bridge like the old man next door. I heard his card The skills are stinky, but the enthusiasm is high, the more you play chess with the stinky chess basket, the more you play chess; the richest man in the world plays bridge, the stinkier the more fun.

Bah~ What nonsense sentences, all in all, Yang Cheng has really had bad luck recently.

After the show was aired, European and American netizens jointly criticized Yang Cheng for flaunting his wealth, which made Yang Cheng very depressed. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he didn't do anything extravagant during the filming, right?

Didn't some netizens praise him for being down-to-earth and eating cod sticks like them?

Later, based on the comments on the Internet, he watched the show from beginning to end, and finally found the part where he flaunted his wealth. To be honest~ watching his own show is quite embarrassing.

No, at the end of the show, I accidentally saw a special limited edition bag in the display window of an Hermès on the street, worth 200,000 pounds. Because of this play, he was sprayed like shit by netizens.

Yang Cheng felt very wronged, what's wrong with me buying a gift for my fiancée? What's bothering you? You think it is expensive, but I still think it is cheap.

Originally, if it was only because of the high price, they wouldn’t have been sprayed so badly. After all, people are rich and self-willed. Buying luxury goods is like buying cabbage.

But the bad thing is that some gods found out the details of this bag.

The following is an excerpt from the comment of an enthusiastic netizen 'jason Yang is a dog': The reason why this bag can be sold at such a high price is entirely because the "Himalaiya" style is originally a rare model among Hermès platinum bags. right! You can understand it as the rare of the rare!

It requires an extremely complicated dyeing process to dye the white crocodile skin into such a gradient effect, and Hermès may not necessarily have one in its annual output.

In addition, this platinum bag is inlaid with 18k white gold decoration weighing 68.4 grams, which also adds a lot of color to it, which is very valuable for collection.

Is everything ok so far?

When Yang Cheng saw this, she felt nothing, except that her screen name was really annoying.

But the following comment was made by an environmentalist: a disgusting rich man who shouted about environmental protection and charity every day, but bought crocodile leather bags casually. I really feel sorry for those dead crocodiles, God bless them.

Then Yang Cheng laughed angrily, the crocodile is your ancestor? Besides, when did he shout the slogan of environmental protection? Charity is done a lot, but does charity have anything to do with buying bags?

If you are capable, don’t wear leather shoes, don’t use belts, and don’t eat meat!

What left him speechless the most was that there were more than 100,000 comments followed, 70% of which echoed the words of the environmentalist.

Of the remaining 30%, 20% of the netizens said that the matter had nothing to do with themselves, and the remaining 10% felt that Yang Cheng was rich and just bought a bag, which is understandable.

In the show, Yang Cheng bought a bag on the spur of the moment, which naturally aroused Helen Skelton's curiosity, "Who did you buy the bag for?"

Yang Cheng, who was paying the bill, said without looking back, "My fiancée~"

"Wow~ She must be very happy, she is really an enviable woman~"

When he said this, Helen Skelton inevitably felt jealous. Women are more or less competitive, and often fantasize that it would be great if my husband was a prostitute.

At this time, if Yang Cheng shuts up and keeps silent, everything will be fine, who made him add, "Buying a bag will make you happy?"

I swear to the lamp, when he said this, he didn't move his mind at all, he just blurted out purely out of cheap instinct.

Helen was stunned for a moment and then asked, "Don't you know how rare this bag is? And it's worth 200,000 pounds!"

Then a speechless scene appeared,

I saw Yang Cheng shrugged, smiled lightly, and said lightly, "It's okay, it's not expensive~"

OK~ You don't need to watch the show after it's played here, because in just a few minutes, he almost caused public outrage.

Isn't a £200,000 bag expensive? Do you know that this bag can be directly exchanged for a Ferrari? Maybe there will be a beautiful woman for sale!

So far, Yang Cheng has added another one to Yang Cheng's 13 quotations on classic outfits: a bag worth 200,000 pounds = not expensive!

Anyway, seeing how miserably he was sprayed, Yang Cheng wanted to sue the BBC. Malicious editing ruined his reputation, so he must be punished~

Fortunately, this idea was persuaded by Carson. After all, the final broadcast version of the program was reviewed by him. In fact, he also made an empirical error. In Carson's opinion, is 200,000 pounds more? not much! The wages paid to the servants of the manor are more than 200,000 pounds every year, not to mention that this is a gift for the future hostess of the castle, which is really not expensive!

That's why he didn't get too entangled in this part, because he didn't think there was a problem~

However, it is not luan, they have been away from the city for too long, and they don't understand the hearts of ordinary people. Fortunately, Yang Cheng had expected it a long time ago, and did not show his private jet and castle, otherwise he would be the target of street rats and everyone shouting and beating him.

Before Conrad and Abu arrived, Yang Cheng made an urgent appointment with Ms. Burns. As a director of EssenMobil, Yang Cheng hoped to hear Ms. Burns' true views on the Permian.

"Good evening~Ms. Burns~"

In a well-known Italian restaurant, Yang Cheng specially asked for a private room so that the two of them could talk conveniently.

"Waiter, give this lady the menu~"

Turning to Burns, he said, "I didn't order a set meal, choose what you like~"

“I know this restaurant, their porchetta is very good~”

Yang Cheng nodded, "Then add another porchetta, let the chef arrange the side dishes~"

To put it bluntly, porchetta is roasted pork. Although the translation is a bit blunt, it should be more appropriate to use "roasted crispy pork", at least it sounds more like a dish.

This is such a classic Italian dish that the mere mention of the word "porchetta" is enough to make most Italians drool.

This dish originates from a traditional dish in Umbria and is also common in places like Lazio, Abruzzo and Marche.

Garlic, wild fennel, salt and pepper are often used to season meat in Umbria, while rosemary and garlic are often used in Lazio and Abruzzo.

The people of Marche sometimes season the meat with white or ripe wine juice;

But to put it bluntly, this dish in country Z is a rotating roasted suckling pig.

In summer, porchetta festivals are held throughout central Italy, where family and friends come from all over to enjoy porchetta outdoors, listen to music and chat with friends.

After returning from Lake Como, Yang Cheng hadn't eaten for a long time and missed it a little.

After the waiter went out and closed the box door, Burns asked, "What's the rush to ask me out?"

Yang Cheng was blunt, "I want to hear your opinion on the Permian Basin."

Burns was startled, "You want to invest in the Permian?"

"Intention~"

Burns frowned and said, "It's a little late, you should know that the Permian Basin was once a hotbed for small independent explorers, wildlife, and small companies hoping to make a fortune here.

But now that the supermajors have piled in and bought up the area's smaller operators, you're running out of targets to choose from.

However, this is also a process that business development must go through. Big fish eat small fish and light rain eats shrimp. Business must also respect the laws of the natural ecological chain. Only large oil companies can achieve breakthrough production efficiency, and the huge crude oil reserves in the region are also will be released. "

The implication is that Yang Cheng's body is too small, forcible entry can only be swallowed by a big fish~

It is indeed a bit late from a common sense, after all, it is too late to invest in this kind of thing.

But there are some things that cannot be judged by common sense. The consortium headed by Yang Cheng, Abu, and Conrad has the strength not weaker than that of large and medium-sized oil producers. The pages that come out are sold!

"You can't compete with Jason~"

"How do you say that?"

“Both ExonMobil and Chevron now have the Permian Basin as their focus, prioritizing their investment in West Texas over all their other projects across the board, while the European supermajors, including Royal Dutch Shell and BP are also increasing their investments in the Permian Basin.

The Permian Basin looks huge, but with the influx of so many super giants, no matter how big the basin is, it will become crowded. Are you sure you can survive among so many giants? "

Without waiting for Yang Cheng to answer, Burns said directly, "EssenMobil now has 24 drilling platforms in the Permian, extending from west Texas to southeastern New Mexico.

Cambridge Resources, based in Midland, Texas, was previously the most active driller in the Permian, we've been talking about acquisitions recently, they have 18 rigs.

Chevron also has 18 drilling platforms in the Permian region, but Chevron has recently begun to increase its development efforts in the Permian Basin. In the next year, their oil production in the Permian Basin will soar by more than 80%.

After hearing these data, what do you think? Not to mention, you have to catch up with one of them in the number of drilling rigs in order to survive, otherwise. . . "

Hearing this, Yang Cheng couldn't help but sighed, "Ms. Burns, I understand what you said, you don't mind if we fight alone, what if we cooperate?"

"Cooperation? What do you mean?"

"It's exactly what you think it is, the same as our cooperation in Nigeria."

Burns frowned, "Are you representing yourself? Or North Sea Oil?"

"Of course it's Beihai Petroleum, which means I'm useless, and I don't have an oil company under my own name."

"If it's Beihai oil, it's not impossible to talk~"
