Chapter 1325 Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents
He is not a fool, so he can naturally see that Frey wants to win over him.
He doesn't mind being attracted by Frey, after all, it doesn't do any harm to him.
But since it’s about wooing, you have to show your sincerity, right?
"Really want to know?"
Frey smiled a little, and he could clearly feel that in an instant, the relationship between him and Lin Chu had become much closer.
Don't you really want to know why I'm asking you? Lin Chu raised his eyebrows slightly, then smiled and said, "Of course."
Then he said, "Actually, it's not just the attitude of your Koch Industries that is weird, it's also the attitude of the Saudi royal family..."
Lin Chu considered it carefully and said, "It's not normal."
Yes, Lin Chu felt that he could only use the four words "not normal" to describe what he saw.
"Actually, many seemingly abnormal things in this world have certain reasons."
Frey smiled slightly, and then took a sip of the red wine in the glass.
He wouldn't find it funny because Lin Chu couldn't see some things clearly.
After all, things in this world are really too complicated.
If his father had not told him something, he might not have been able to see it clearly.
"Necessary reason?"
Lin Chu's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Benefit."
Frey hit the nail on the head, with a somewhat mysterious smile on his face, "As Mr. Churchill said, there are never permanent friends and enemies between countries, only eternal interests."
"How can a huge country allow someone to point fingers at their head?"
"I can see this." Lin Chu nodded slightly.
In the past few years, Saudi Arabia has taken frequent actions, and some clues can already be seen.
"It's just that Saudi Arabia doesn't seem to need to be so anxious..."
Although conflicts are bound to break out, Lin Chu always feels that it seems to be a bit too early for it to break out this time.
"oil."
Frey took a deep look at Lin Chu, and then said casually, "Saudi Arabia is preparing to reduce oil production."
"Um?"
Lin Chu was stunned for a moment. You must know that all of Saudi Arabia's economy is maintained by oil.ωωw.
Cutting oil production should be of no benefit to Saudi Arabia.
Shouldn't we seize the time and put more energy into production?
Not only the yield per mu is 10,000, but at least the yield per mu is 8,000, right?
wrong!
At this time, Lin Chu suddenly remembered the economic knowledge in his high school politics textbook.
Supply and demand determines price!
Saudi Arabia's oil production reduction is definitely not just its own production reduction, but together with all surrounding countries...
Their purpose is to drive up oil prices!!!
"It shouldn't be. This should be a good thing for the United States, right?"
Lin Chu glanced at Frey in confusion.
You know, the crude oil reserves of the United States are quite huge. If the global oil price rises, it will only benefit the United States, and there will be no harm!
If this is the case, then the United States should be in favor of it with both hands and feet.
"But national interests are not only reflected in the economic aspect."
Frey said solemnly, "Although the United States is the most powerful country in the world, there is no doubt about it."
"But no matter how powerful a behemoth is, it still needs people to help wave the flag and shout."
"We cannot just promote the development of our own economy. Under the current circumstances, if the price of oil increases, the consequences..."
"Understood."
Lin Chu nodded. Although the economy is very important, there is no doubt that his younger brother is also an indispensable part.
At least for now, that's the case.
He seemed to understand a little bit why His Majesty Feier did what he did.
To use a Chinese saying, cutting off someone's financial path is like killing one's parents.
The United States wants to cut off Saudi Arabia's financial resources, but if Saudi Arabia doesn't resist vigorously, then it's a ghost.
It’s a good thing that the Saudi royal family didn’t directly stand up and quarrel with each other!
"So, this is why you want to cooperate with me?" Lin Chu glanced at Frey and seemed to understand something.
The drop in oil prices is not good news for these energy giants.
"Also, why would my father buy out your technology without hesitation?" Frey added.
They can't stand up and do something openly, but when they take action behind the scenes, they don't hesitate at all.
Behind the worldly sophistication is the cold reality.
Why does the Koch family want to cooperate with Lin Chu?
Is it because Lin Chu is handsome?
Obviously not, but because they can earn astonishing profits by cooperating with Lin Chu.
"Driving oil prices up..."
Lin Chu sat on the sofa, looking at Frey opposite who was tasting red wine, and couldn't help but murmur to himself.
If it had been half a year ago, he wouldn't have dared to think about things like affecting the global oil price trend.
After all, this is definitely something that only the top figures in the world can do.
As a result, now, he is really involved.
It has even become a very crucial part of it.
"What are you thinking about?"
Frey asked with a smile.
"I wonder when this kind of thing has anything to do with a little person like me."
"Little person? If you are a little person, then there probably won't be any big people in this world."
When Lin Chu heard this, he smiled noncommittally.
Yes, now, no matter how you calculate it, he has nothing to do with the three words "little person".
"What I'm more curious about is, if I choose to cooperate in depth with the Koch family, will the Koch family provide support for my series of actions in Saudi Arabia?"
Lin Chu touched his chin, thoughtfully, "In other words, the energy behind the Koch family."
He is not a fool. I am afraid that the Koch family's cooperation is somewhat intended to push him to the forefront and act as a pawn.
After all, Lin Chu did hold an amazing amount of energy in his hands, and he could compete with that behemoth.
Naturally, they can use Lin Chu to leverage some of their profits.
This they, of course, does not only refer to the Koch family.
No matter how awesome the Koch family is, it is impossible to leverage such huge interests.
Unless they are really impatient.
"In terms of resources, we at Koch Industries will naturally help."
Frey narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said in a deep voice.
Chapter completed!
