Chapter 149 The oil crisis broke out
When Chen Yi opened his mouth, he asked what was the matter. Shen Bi knew that the other party still cared about the past, so he didn't care too much.
He believed that as long as he told Chen Yi the news about the Middle East later, the other party would definitely feel relieved.
These days, as long as there is interest, enemies can sit together and talk and laugh, let alone small things.
Shen Bi raised his finger and pointed to the sofa, and said with a smile, "Chen Sheng won't invite me to sit down for a while? You know, I came here specially to deliver good news to Chen Sheng."
"Uh, I'm sorry, please sit down, Manager Shen." Chen Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he seemed to think of something, hurriedly asked him to sit down, and asked impatiently: "I don't know what good news it is, it's worth Manager Shen to visit me personally ?”
It is not to blame that Chen Yi lost his composure, the main reason is that during this period of time, he was really anxious. It is better that this kind of life ends one day sooner.
Shen Bi looked at Boss Chen who was losing his composure, but he didn't have the slightest contempt.
Reminiscent of Chen Yi's previous family background, it's hard to imagine that the other party would put all his belongings in the stock market.
The most important point, I won the bet.
"Didn't Chen Sheng already guess it?" Thinking of Chen Yi's next big profit, Shen Bi suddenly sold out.
Chen Yi heard the words, smiled wryly and said: "Manager Shen, don't shut up with me, you know, I got all the news from the newspapers, and you HSBC Bank have great powers."
Shen Bi listened, nodded in satisfaction and said: "I just received news from the HSBC branch in Syria at noon today. Just this morning, the Syrian government cut off an oil pipeline and suspended its domestic oil delivery."
"In addition, Lebanon followed suit at noon and closed Sidon, an important oil delivery port in the south."
"According to reliable sources, the two countries banned their own oil shipments not because of the war, but to cooperate with other oil-producing countries in the Middle East to combat the price control of the seven major international oil companies on oil exports."
"If there are no accidents, in a few days, other oil-producing countries in the Middle East will gradually shut down their domestic oil pipelines."
When Shen Bi finished speaking, Chen Yi was a little surprised. In his previous life, he only knew that the oil crisis would cause the international crude oil price to rise sharply. As for the specific inside story behind it, he didn't know very well.
If he hadn't collected a lot of information before, he wouldn't even know that the seven major international oil companies control global oil prices.
It is for this reason that even if he knows that the price of oil will rise sharply in October, he still seems very disturbed.
After all, what the capitalists are best at is to open their **** mouths and eat everything that belongs to them and does not belong to them.
Now that the oil price has not risen, Shen Bi has obtained first-hand internal information. It has to be said that the power of an international consortium like HSBC is really not to be underestimated.
Of course, it is useless for HSBC to receive the news now. Among the global financial institutions, there are many more wealthy and powerful than HSBC.
The so-called, slow step by step, slow step by step.
Chen Yi knew the development of history, and started buying crude oil on the market one month in advance. Now behind the contracts in his hand are barrels of black gold.
At that time, the oil in his hand will be worth the money of the old man.
Now the news from the Middle East will come back soon, and although financial institutions like HSBC get the news one step ahead of ordinary people, it is obviously too late.
At this moment, who would be stupid enough to sell the oil in their hands?
Chen Yi didn't hide it at all, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then thanked Shen Bi: "Manager Shen, this news came too timely. You can let it go."
"Understood." Shen Bi nodded with a smile, expressing that he understood Chen Yi's situation very well. Anyone would be nervous if this kind of thing changed, and it would be abnormal if they were not nervous.
However, Shen Bi still kindly reminded: "However, Chen Sheng, after all, the news has not really spread, so you need to continue to pay attention to the stock market, and don't accidentally make a problem, and all previous efforts will be wasted."
Hearing Shen Bi's reminder, Chen Yi put away his emoji. He also knew that the more critical the situation, the more he couldn't relax. Once someone liquidated his position, all previous efforts would be in vain.
Seeing Chen Yi's solemn expression, Shen Bi said in a timely manner: "Of course, if Chen Sheng needs anything, HSBC will definitely support him with all his strength."
"Then I would like to thank Manager Shen first." Chen Yi naturally would not refuse such a good thing delivered to his door. With the support of HSBC Bank, it is equivalent to an extra insurance for him.
In this way, he eats and sleeps well.
Seeing that Chen Yi didn't reject his offer, Shen Bi was also very happy, which showed that the other party didn't care about the previous things.
Helping Chen Yi is also good for HSBC. Once Chen Yi makes a fortune in the oil market, HSBC will also get a lot of commission from it. No one will refuse such a win-win situation.
In the next few days, the local tyrants in the Middle East did not disappoint Boss Chen. As Syria and Lebanon closed their domestic oil pipelines, Iraq, one of the largest oil exporters in the Middle East, announced that it would transfer the Basra Petroleum Company, a subsidiary of the Iraqi Oil Company, to the United States. The shares jointly owned by Sen and Mobile were nationalized.
For a while, the seven major international oil companies were caught off guard by this wave of operations in Iraq. Others shut down the oil output pipelines, but Iraq went well and directly took the shares of the American oil companies into national ownership without saying a word.
This is tantamount to directly digging the roots of the seven major international oil companies and kicking them out of Iraq.
However, this is not the most important thing.
After Iraq took back the equity of its domestic and foreign oil companies, major oil exporters in the Middle East, including Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Iran, unanimously decided to increase the market price of crude oil in the Gulf region by 17%.
At the same time, a number of major oil-producing countries in the Middle East have announced a reduction in oil production, with a monthly reduction of 5% on the basis of existing oil exports.
In addition, a group of oil-producing countries in the Middle East directly cut off the export of oil from the United States, which has long supported Israel behind its back.
Throughout October, the eyes of the world have shifted to the Middle East. A group of oil-producing countries in the Middle East united unexpectedly, catching European and American countries by surprise.
No one thought that the Middle East country, which is usually inconspicuous and no one cares about it, could make such a big commotion, and hit seven inches with every shot.
Here, I have to say, in response to that sentence, the honest man got angry, and it was really out of control...
