Chapter 1107 Energy Industry—Essenkofme Group (Part 1)

Located in the southernmost part of the United States, facing the Gulf of Mexico to the east, it ranks second in area among the fifty states in the United States, second only to the enclave of Alaska.

--Texas.

I believe you have heard the name even if you don’t know it, and if you also know something about this name besides poker,

Then you will definitely know the famous features of this land like its label.

The land is sparsely populated, the people are simple, the specialty is steak and BBQ, almost every household is equipped with a shotgun, and for six months of the year in summer, girls wearing hot pants are everywhere...

Just like Los Angeles without cars, there are no legs. You can imagine the style of painting here from the vast land and sparse population. It is definitely not a modern city with many high-rise buildings like San Francisco.

Most of them are sparsely distributed low-rise buildings, giving it a wilderness feel like a big town. Vast meadows, farmland and farms can be seen everywhere.

So you will find that the cars here are basically pickup trucks.

Really, people here really like to drive pickup trucks, and there is even a subtle chain of contempt.

Everyone thinks that only sissies drive cars, but real men should drive pickup trucks!

And unlike the liberal and open Northeast, here we have traditional, conservative ideas and Christian beliefs. Outside of big cities like Austin, you can really feel the warmth of people’s ancient ways.

For example, if you ask someone at a steakhouse for help, he will really take you back and drive you in his pickup truck. The simple folk customs are not empty words.

Of course, this simplicity is equated with toughness to a certain extent. This may also be due to the high rate of gun ownership and the straightforwardness of everyone.

To give you a chestnut,

You told people on the Internet that the reason why the team battle was AFK was because someone walked into your backyard, and you and your dad who got a gun went out and shot him. They might say that you are so stupid. ,

But if you say that your home is in Texas, then they may say that it is so, and then there is nothing you can do...

In short, based on various reasons like this,

People from other states always have some stereotypes about here, such as thinking about muscles, farmers, and cowboys.

How should I put it? It reminds me subtly that in China, many people always think that in a large province in the north, people there can ride horses, shoot arrows and live in yurts...

But as long as you go there once, this prejudice will disappear.

Especially against the summer background of golden farmland, I saw a sexy slender girl wearing hot pants and wheat color jumping out from the back of a pickup truck...

Ahem...I'm sorry, I originally wanted to introduce a few sentences, but I unknowingly went too far.

Back to the topic, although it gives people the feeling of a farm town, Texas is quite economically developed. It and California are the two richest states in the United States.

If you take it out and look at GDP alone, it is stronger than Australia.

Needless to say, the super-developed agriculture was born from a large area of ​​land, because prices, living costs, and most importantly, tax rates are relatively low. There are more than fifty Fortune 500 companies located here.

Based on strong industrial development, there are two highly developed industries in Texas, one is the world-famous aerospace industry with NASA,

And the other one is - energy.

Gasoline is very cheap, and although there is obviously a lack of preparedness for extreme weather, electricity is also very cheap because it has an independent power grid, which provides one-fifth of oil production.

Texas has always been the energy heart of the United States.

Among the many energy-related industries here, mining agreements have been reached in more than 180 countries or regions, including heating, gas supply, petrochemicals and even nuclear power plants.

The biggest giant in the energy industry, Esenco Formation Group is here!

North America, Texas, Irving,

After getting off the plane, Fangran opened his dark eyes in the customarily elongated Rolls-Royce and looked down at a high-rise building in front of him from high altitude.

"Is that Fiseld's energy industry?"

"That's right, that's the headquarters building of the Essenk Ferme Group, the energy industry controlled by Fiseld."

I still sat next to him as usual,

After all, she wasn’t dressed in a way that would make people look dramatic. Her formal attire exuded coldness and dignity. Adeline answered in the affirmative,

"This is the only business you have in the energy field?"

Thinking of the many industries in the medical field, led by the two upstream giants Shengqiang and Litonmi, it is a bit surprising that Fiseld, who has deep pockets, only has one company in the energy field.

"To be precise, it's not just this one, it's enough to open this one."

After correcting the deviation in Fangran's words, Adeline looked at the approaching building and explained calmly:

"It's not like you think, young master, to set up companies specifically for production, smelting, transportation and sales. In the energy field, we have adopted an integrated business model,"

"Through horizontal mergers of similar companies and vertical expansion along the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, we continue to use economies of scale to reduce marginal costs. "

Um... In short, it means that you take care of everything from production to sales, right...

After all, he had been the CEO for more than a week, but he could still roughly understand what she was saying. After a second of shame, Fangran couldn't help but look at the building again.

I was amazed at the huge scale of the entire industry chain within the group.

"Speaking of what an energy company does, are you responsible for generating electricity and heating?"

Looking at Adeline, Fangran asked this question,

He suddenly discovered that the energy field and energy companies sounded high-end, but he really had no idea what they actually did.

"The so-called energy company is a commercial company that develops and effectively utilizes energy, which determines the national economy and national development."

Seeing Fangran's expression of listening but not listening, knowing that this level of explanation was completely useless to a complete novice like him, Adeline understood his straightforward explanation very well:

"Specifically, it is engaged in the exploration, mining, and transportation of primary energy sources such as oil, coal, and natural gas, processing them into secondary energy sources for various uses, and selling them to earn profits,"

"These uses also include the power generation and heating you mentioned, Master. In addition, we also involve new energy sources such as wind energy and solar energy,"

"In a word, we are dealing with everything related to energy."

Listening to Adeline's simple and crude summary at the end, Fangran suddenly nodded thoughtfully:

"Is that why you are so anxious to get the oil we transport back?"

"To be precise, it's the crude oil from the three oil tankers that you escorted back, Master."

"Aren't these two the same thing?"

After being slightly startled, Fangran looked at Adeline's rhetorical question, and the cold silver-haired figure raised his calm eyes:

"I"
