Chapter 292: One Year Old
Whether it is Mingxiu Newspaper or Jinhe Securities, a large amount of information has been gathered into the hands of Cai Zhiliang. As Zhao Baocheng talked about yesterday, as a major global event, either the cause or the effect, once everything is unfolded and analyzed
, can always be slightly related to the Gulf War, as if the world is revolving around the upcoming war. After the defeat in Saigon, the United States once again intervened in a war on a large scale.
And Japan is no longer the focus of his attention.
As a result, the upcoming battlefield has become a speculation ground, and it depends on whose vision is quick and accurate. But at this time, there is a high probability that the banker will take the lead, and retail investors like Zhao Baocheng will be cut off.
It’s just leeks. After all, the channels for obtaining various information are too limited.
After Jinhe Investment gradually got on the right track, Cai Zhiliang only paid attention to the oil trade. Perhaps after owning several mines, he felt that he could compete in the oil field.
Throughout the past two decades, due to various reasons, two oil crises broke out in 1973 and 1979 respectively. There is no doubt that they were closely related to the Middle East. This also led to the economic recession of Western countries and triggered the world energy crisis.
Long-term structural changes in the market.
As the saying goes, every gain must come with a loss, and because of the oversupply in the market caused by these two oil crises, coupled with the United States' efforts to contain the Soviet Union, the global market share of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (opec), led by Saudi Arabia, dropped from half of the level in the 1970s.
To less than one third, it is intolerable. Because of this, Saudi Arabia
In 1985, the first oil price war in history was launched. Exports soared from less than 2 million barrels per day to nearly 10 million barrels per day in order to regain market share. As a result, oil prices fell from US$30 to US$10 per barrel, almost
Unprofitable, let alone countries outside the Gulf.
The fire at the city gate affected all the fish in the pond. In this price war, the Soviet Union was hit hard. It was no longer able to compete with the United States, which also laid the foundation for its disintegration.
After all, the price war could not last long. After hitting the bottom of 10 US dollars, Saudi Arabia began to lead OPEC to reduce production. Non-OPEC countries also cooperated in reducing production because they could not tolerate low oil prices. In addition, the economies of developed countries in Europe and the United States began to recover, and oil prices began to rise. As the two countries
After the war in Iraq ended and the Middle East stabilized, first the UAE and the emirates began to increase production on their own, and then Iran and Iraq increased their daily production from 4.5 million barrels to 8 million barrels. The global oil market once again faced an oversupply situation.
Here is the current situation of the oil market at the beginning of this year. It is inevitable that the price will fall back to 15 US dollars. However, at this time, Iraq invaded Kuwait, oil prices continued to rise, and the third oil crisis broke out.
Everyone knows that as long as the war ends and there is peace in the Middle East, the market will once again face an oversupply situation, and oil prices will inevitably plummet, so that any expert who pays attention to oil futures will have to predict how long this war will last.
Already.
As a man with a sharp weapon, Cai Zhiliang still needs to do something necessary. He spent a lot of money to buy several war predictions, including the famous American think tank Rand Corporation, which made accurate predictions on whether China would send troops to support North Korea during the Korean War.
Of course, the purchased information is naturally selected and is the development process that Cai Zhiliang hopes or is willing to believe, so that the entire investment process can be smooth and seamless.
In the next few days, in addition to dealing with the backlog of matters during this period, Hang Lung Bank acquired two banks located in Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru to form Hang Lung Bank Malaysia, which was regarded as a situation in Malaysia, and then went to
A trip to the film and television city in Tseung Kwan O.
"A Chinese Ghost Story III" is being filmed intensively, and Xiaoqian is still so beautiful. In this final film of the series, Nie Xiaoqian spent a hundred years cultivating herself, from birth to death, in exchange for seven short days with Ning Caichen
A tragic story of meeting each other, and finally losing their souls and disappearing between heaven and earth.
As the producer, Xu Ke did not come, and the script adaptation of "New Shushan Sword Immortal" still has no results. However, Xu Ke and Shi Nansheng have already traveled to the mainland, visiting famous mountains and rivers, looking for filming locations, and looking for some long-lost inspiration in order to
Next creation.
On the other hand, a Song Dynasty-style Kaifeng Mansion similar to Song City has begun to be built, and "Bao Qingtian" is also being created. Cai Zhiliang did not interfere. As for the various stories of detectives solving crimes, no matter how they are adapted, they can always achieve the same goal through different paths.
Don't do anything superfluous, it's nothing more than adding to the
Just add some legendary stories of "the sun is judged by the day and the yin is cut off by the night". After nearly two years of operation, the editorial department has already become familiar with various themes. Of course, "The Case of the Beauty" is still indispensable. This is the first shot.
, we must start, and other projects like "New Mandarin Duck and Butterfly Dream" can also be considered.
Soon it will be Zheng Yiming's daughter's first birthday party. Compared with the folds at the full moon last year, the little girl has opened up and looks a bit beautiful. Cai Zhiliang originally wanted to hug her and feel some joy, but the little girl looked lifeless.
Don't let anyone get close to you, you might burst into tears at any time.
Zheng Yiming also arranged for his daughter to have Zhou Zhou. According to their Chaoshan custom, because of the relationship between establishing a family and continuing the incense, generally only boys will arrange Zhou Zhou. Women have only become more popular in recent years. Those who are good at it will
A handful of candies are placed on the near side. The little girl may be covered in colorful flowers.
I was confused by the color, maybe it was a normal snack, so I grabbed it in my hand and immediately put it in my mouth. Jingchen looked at the candy in his daughter's hand and couldn't laugh or cry. He really felt sorry for her misfortune. He shook his abacus and pressed the button.
Calculator, and something that makes noise to attract my daughter's attention.
The little girl was stunned for a long time, looking at her mother who was selling products hard, leaning forward and looking around, and finally grabbed a ruler in her hand, waving it left and right, maybe because she felt more authoritative, she laughed "giggling" and also
Jingchen breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone congratulated him. Jingchen has a successor. The little girl will definitely be a great judge who will rule the world in the future.
“Is this from that brewery?”
Naturally, Cai Zhiliang did not go to see Zhou Zhou. Instead, he chatted and drank with Chen Qiang, Zhou Hai, Chu Tianxing, Yang Le and others. Today's beer tasted very good.
"It's the Huizhou brewery controlled by Benda International. The equipment was just imported from Germany a few months ago. Today, Mr. Zheng has spent a lot of effort to get the beer that just came off the production line from the brewery to here without a moment's delay."
It was Yang Le who said: "Jinhe Group has various beverages, wineries, grains, oils and food. I discussed with Mr. Zheng before about purchasing Huizhou Brewery, but he rejected it."
"No wonder you know so well." Cai Zhiliang felt the need to remind him, and said: "It is not easy to run these factories well. Don't just look at the height of this mountain, and the shopping malls are keeping a close eye on it."
When it comes to shopping malls, Yang Le is a bit silent. He already boasted about it at the beginning of the year. Now that more than half a year has passed, it seems that he will not be able to achieve the goal of 200 million.
This was just an interlude, and the topic immediately shifted to a newly hot topic, not the war in the Middle East, but the battle for Chinese real estate that started last month. Huang Zhouxuan once again raised the offer and extended the acquisition period, looking like he was bound to win.
Liu Luanxiong was no longer as careless as before, but was actively purchasing Chinese Real Estate shares from the market.
"Can the Liu brothers keep Chinese property ownership this time?" Zhou Hai asked, somewhat gloating, and said: "Liu Luanxiong has attacked so many companies, and now he finally has a taste of it."
"It's not difficult to keep Chinese property owners." Although he made a huge profit in this sniper war and pushed the acquisition to a fever pitch, Chu Tianxing was not optimistic about Parkview Group, saying: "Now Mr. Liu has
If you are willing to spend the money, it is estimated that this acquisition war will be over, but you must pay a certain price."
Zhou Haidao: "If the Parkview Group is still so strong, wouldn't it mean that both sides suffer losses?"
"Now that things have happened, the Zhou family can no longer survive in Taiwan. What else can we do if we don't become stronger?" Chen Qiang said: "Besides, with the competition for financial resources, anything may happen until the last moment. Besides,
, with the skyrocketing real estate prices, Chinese real estate is also rising, Parkview Group will not necessarily suffer losses, but will be resounding throughout Hong Kong."
After glancing at Cai Zhiliang, Chen Qiang continued: "It's probably like when Jinhe Investment acquired Jardine. Even if the acquisition didn't succeed, there were still a lot of benefits."
This is true. From now on, no one will dare to underestimate Parkview Group. It has completed its status transformation from a dragon crossing the river to a tiger sitting on the ground. Soon the place turned into a vegetable market, and people from all walks of life came in an endless stream.
, from the various groups under Jinhe Investment, to friends and friends of friends, there was no interest in chatting.
Cai Zhiliang met Yang Bingzheng again. Starting from the summer of the previous year, he had lost all his excess enthusiasm in two years. The current situation of the Miramar Hotel was like Wang Xiaoer's Chinese New Year. One year was not as good as the other. Take profits as an example, in 1988 it was still
There are more than 100 million. Last year we barely managed to save 100 million, but this year it is even worse. The half-year financial report only had a profit of 28 million. This is really unimaginable for a large company with a market value of more than 7 billion.
As for the resort project that we planned to invest in last year, there is no news. Later, we planned to cooperate with Regent Hotel, but finally introduced the newly acquired Ramada Hotel, hoping to bring advanced management experience.
However, we can still talk about it. After all, Miramar Hotel is an asset-heavy hotel group, and the value of its own properties still has certain investment value.
Therefore, Cai Zhiliang once again expressed his intention to increase his holdings of shares in Miramar Hotels and invest in joint venture hotels in mainland China. As Yang Bingzheng has always emphasized, although he got up early, he could only catch the evening market, but Miramar Hotel Group has been in business since 1979.
The expansion of the mainland market since 2001 has solidified Miramar's reputation and foundation in China. This is a very important intangible asset, and Cai Zhiliang deeply believes in it.
