Chapter 443 Trivial
"Venezuela has been abandoned by God!"
Yang Cheng disagrees with John Paulson's lament. This matter has nothing to do with God and his old man. In fact, God has allowed Venezuelans to live a good life for decades. In terms of oil reserves, it is no less than the United Arab Emirates, the pearl of the Middle East. At least, who is the culprit behind Venezuela's degeneration to where it is today, he wants to know with his ass.
Of course, it is undeniable that they killed themselves, but the United States definitely did not play any bright role in Venezuela's near-bankruptcy.
You know, the United States has always been Venezuela's largest trading partner. More than 50% of Venezuela's oil is supplied to the US market, and Venezuela is the fourth largest oil supplier to the United States. Almost all refineries in the southern United States are used to process sulfur content. Venezuelan oil is relatively high, and this relationship has experienced some disharmony during the period when the Venezuelan authorities were in power. The Venezuelan authorities have been trying to get rid of this highly dependent relationship, and the United States naturally does not want its own economic interests to be damaged. The relationship between the two Contradictions arise from this.
I just don’t know if the Americans are secretly supporting the opposition in Venezuela. This is the consistent routine of the White House and the CIA.
Soon, the old cowboy came up with a tray. Even in this icy and snowy place, the draft beer mug with the golden beer was still steaming. Venison, pickled ham, salad made with seasonal vegetables, French fries, and fresh lamb chops. The dishes are not fresh, but the quality of the ingredients and the home-style cooking techniques are better.
After going back and forth three times, I finished all the servings, and returned to the back kitchen without saying a word, leaving space for the guests.
Because Yang Cheng knew something, she didn't find it strange. She picked up a glass of draft beer and took a sip. The cool and sweet taste was refreshing, even though it was below zero outside.
Picking up a lamb chop that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, he easily tore off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, he asked, "I just don't understand, why did Wall Street make a move? Are we going to be used as a scapegoat?"
John Paulson followed suit, but he was more interested in the plate of ham salad. After all, he was old and drank his own draft beer, nodded in satisfaction, and sneered when he heard Yang Cheng's question Said, "It's not that simple. Don't forget that today's people are not only from Wall Street, but also from Silicon Valley, Country Z, and Europe. When has Wall Street been under the control of the White House? They have not always been in charge. A character who wipes our ass?"
After a hard retort, John Paulson showed a thoughtful look again, and said ambiguously while drinking beer, "Do you think it is possible that the decision was made jointly by multiple countries?"
Before Yang Cheng could hear it clearly, John Paulson shook his head violently, denying himself, "No, no, it's impossible. Venezuela's bankruptcy will not benefit other countries, especially country Z."
Yang Cheng raised his head in surprise. Is there any inside story here that he doesn't know?
John Paulson turned his head and glanced at the puzzled Yang Cheng, smiled and explained, "Over the past 10 years, country Z has successively invested or borrowed more than 60 billion U.S. dollars in Venezuela, even if it has already been repaid. However, as long as Venezuela does not go bankrupt, they still have the possibility of repaying. After all, the whole world knows that country Z is short of oil, and Venezuela has a lot of proven oil reserves. 270 billion barrels."
With such an explanation, Yang Cheng immediately figured it out, but he had a different opinion, "However, no matter who comes to power or which party is in power, country Z can buy oil, but a stable political situation is better than a turbulent political situation." Much better?"
John Paulson was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "You are right, so it is not a small possibility that several big countries will unite and invest in Venezuela through commercial means."
Yang Cheng waved his hand, "I don't want to, anyway, this money is considered as a protection fee.
Anyway, they don't dare to owe money, but if they want to get it back, it may take a few years. "
"Well, although the signs of bankruptcy in Venezuela are obvious, there is still some time before the real bankruptcy. After all, it is a country's heritage. Even if they live on their laurels, they will be able to survive for a few years."
"Fuck, it's really not the right time to ask for this money, 1 billion dollars, how many things can you do." Yang Cheng cursed and complained unhappily.
"This matter is beyond our control. Just now Warren also said who led this incident. Even the two richest people in the world have not escaped being sheared. What are we people?" John Paul Although Ersen spoke calmly, Yang Cheng could still hear the deeply suppressed dissatisfaction.
Afterwards, the two chatted in various directions for several hours, and it was not until late at night that they bid farewell in front of the tavern.
In the next two days, Yang Cheng participated in one forum after another step by step. It was useless, and he talked a lot of empty talk, but there was no real help. Instead, he had a good chat with the little pockmark on Facebook. It may be because his wife is of Chinese descent, she has a natural affinity for Chinese people, and she kept pulling Yang Cheng to communicate in Z, and made an appointment to go back to the United States to find time for a reunion.
After attending the Davos Forum, Yang Cheng returned to London non-stop. Xu Lingyue finished her trip and was about to leave for China. Of course, Yang Cheng couldn't miss the chance to see her off, and told her that after returning to China, someone from Ahri Films would contact her. Don't be a liar, work hard according to the company's plan, and wish her a big star soon.
The young lady was dubious, but she still complied, and finally sent an invitation to him before boarding the plane, hoping to have a chance to meet again in China. Yang Cheng was overjoyed.
On the other side, with the help of Eiffel, Zachary successfully boarded the flight to Italy as an ordinary person, and successfully met the family he missed day and night in Naples. After a touching reunion, Zachary Ritter called Yang Cheng for help, hoping to take his parents to London for treatment, and he was responsible for any accidents on the way.
After Yang Cheng pondered for a long time, he nodded and agreed. He felt that Zachary was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of well ropes. Italy was too close to Albania, which made him very uneasy, and he would rather risk his parents' injuries to worsen I don't want the whole family to fall into the tiger's mouth again.
That being the case, Yang Cheng had nothing to hesitate, and immediately arranged for Hansen to escort him all the way. It took a full week to bring Zachary's parents to London and arrange them to be admitted to Wellington Hospital, the largest hospital in the UK and even in Europe. It is a private hospital with a world-renowned reputation in many specialized fields, and it is also the world's top rehabilitation hospital.
Here Zachary's parents will receive the best treatment. Zachary, who was born in a rich family, knows the cost of treatment and recovery here, but he is unable to pay back, so he can only ask for help over and over again. Yang Cheng thanked her.
Yang Cheng refused, but had no choice but to "reluctantly" accept Zachary's life-long repayment of kindness, and took the opportunity to test the possibility of Zachary's independent painting, and the result was unexpectedly satisfactory. All the paintings will be handed over to Yang Cheng for operation. He only needs to guarantee the expenses for his family to live a normal life.
The long-awaited plan was realized, and Yang Cheng, who was overjoyed, would naturally not be stingy, and said "generously" that Zachary would be in charge of painting in the future, and he would be in charge of running the auction, and the proceeds would be split in half.
There is no doubt that Zachary's painting skills are the most pure and self-contained modern painters born in the past few decades. As long as he is willing to spend time on publicity, it is only a matter of time before he becomes famous, and publicity is just a matter of time. What Yang Cheng and New Era Media are good at, it can be foreseen that Yang Cheng has personally dug a monopoly gold mine, which will continuously provide Yang Cheng and Yang Cheng's family with a steady stream of cash flow in the next few decades or even hundreds of years. This is the most satisfying investment Yang Cheng has made since his rebirth.
During the period of welcoming Zachary's parents to London, Yang Cheng was not idle. While continuing to dig into the news of Glencore with William, while enticing Zheng Jiaxuan, this guy didn't know if he got inside information. It was extraordinarily quiet, without the impatience they had before, making Yang Cheng and William instinctively think that the hole they dug had been found out, and the plan was about to fall through.
But judging from the actual performance, Zheng Jiaxuan seemed to know nothing, and was still looking forward to the cooperation with William. The two were puzzled and had to decide to take one step at a time, first implement the original plan, and the rest would be Everyone is in peace.
William has been in charge of public relations Alex Beard, constantly persuading him to sell the stocks in his hand, but that guy is determined not to give William face, no matter what, he won't sell it, even at a premium. Of course, Yang Cheng and the others will also Not too much of a premium all at once.
Anyway, this matter is temporarily embarrassing here, there is no possibility of progress at all, Yang Cheng has no choice but to procrastinate, there will always be a way, right?
Moreover, he has too many things at hand, and it is impossible to devote all his energy to this matter. Donna Lander has confirmed the preparations for the premiere of "Fifty Shades of Grey" in London, and remotely controlled the promotion process before the film's release. In addition, she went all out to negotiate with the Premier League on the North American copyright of the game. For this reason, she went to the Premier League headquarters almost every day, and took the trouble to have "friendly" exchanges with Richard Scudamore.
Time is very tight. Seeing that the negotiations on the copyright of the Premier League's local live broadcast have come to an end, a new three-year contract is about to be signed. After that, the Premier League will officially start negotiations with NBC on the renewal of the live broadcast copyright in North America. Donna Rondo is almost in a hurry Crazy, once NBC finds out that Cheng Yaojin has been killed halfway, then it will be several times more difficult to win the North American copyright in a head-to-head confrontation with NBC. She doesn't want to see such a thing happen, which will make Yang Cheng doubted her ability.
However, Richard Scudamore is surprisingly tough. He seems to have completely forgotten the verbal promise he made with Yang Cheng at the beginning, and made up his mind to let New Era Media and NBC compete with each other, while he and the Premier League will sit firmly on the Diaoyutai , the fisherman reaps the benefits, but will Donna Round, a strong woman who can make her way in Hollywood, do what Richard Scudamore wants?
