Chapter 326: Big Toys for Big Boys(1/2)
Facing John Mellon's sigh.
Abel remained silent.
"Many people say so. I think the goddess of luck should be my lover. But there are also many people who are unwilling to believe it. They think they can beat me."
"hehe……"
When John Mellon was not speaking, Alpha, who was actually a little higher than John Mellon, finally found an opportunity to speak...
After a smile, he said, "Dear Mr. Sefrosa... Wells Fargo is very sincere and wants to cancel the bet agreement between Oasis Investment and Wells Fargo with you."
"Of course, we are willing to calculate the gains and losses between the two parties based on the current international crude oil futures price. Wells Fargo is willing to pay Oasis investment corresponding profits according to the contract!"
John Mellon nodded too.
Abel smiled.
He looked at the two of them with a relaxed expression.
He said: "Then I can get anything other than the money I deserve? If it is not cancelled, if international crude oil continues to fall in the next 19 days, I could have got more than that money."
What a greedy guy.
Alpha thought in his heart.
But now people are the slaughter and they are the meat. As a senior management of Wells Fargo, he has the obligation to recover the losses for Wells Fargo.
"Of course." Alpha said in a pondering manner, "Wells Fargo has always been the best strategic allies with Mr. Sefrosa. The friendship between the two sides can stand the test. I think Mr. Sefrosa will agree with the friendship between us."
This means that I don't want to give me benefits.
Of course Abel could understand.
Wells Fargo wants to cancel the betting contract agreement in advance, which is not impossible for Abel, as he has made money anyway.
The bet with Wells Fargo is only 1 billion US dollars, which means Wells Fargo lost about 695 million US dollars in the contract.
According to the current trend, it is entirely possible that the international crude oil futures price will drop below US$60. If the contract is really delivered on November 23, it should be able to cut from Wells Fargo to hundreds of millions of dollars.
In view of his always good relationship with Wells Fargo, Abel agreed to Wells Fargo to terminate the bet early.
But now Alpha doesn't want to pay the price, and of course Abel will not agree.
joke!
He is not a real philanthropist! John Mellon and Alpha were both opposed to betting against him, but the real senior executives of Wells Fargo in New York were attracted by the largest bet amount in recent years. Despite their opposition, they still took 1/10 of the order.
Now it seems that their senior management wants to shrink, but they send John Mellon and Alpha whom they had opposed at the time.
And it seems that he is unwilling to pay the price.
How could such a good thing happen in the world? I wanted to eat meat, but I found that the meat was from a tiger. I might not be able to eat meat and I would be bitten hard by the tiger.
As a result, after provoking the tiger, he retreated, and in turn told the tiger through his friends...
Don't bite me.
I gave in.
After beating the tiger, he was unwilling to pay the price when the tiger took revenge.
Of course Abel would not allow it.
After all, this is not a Chinese country that advocates the doctrine of the mean. The Chinese people's moderate character is weak and concession here, and what they get will always be gaining more and more. Especially in the business world, this is always the case.
Hear Alpha say this.
Abel shook his head.
He smiled sarcastically:
"I think Wells Fargo still has a chance. After all, there are still 19 days before the end of the contract, and it is still a long time before November 23. Things like futures are always unpredictable. Now it is $61.77, and it is likely to return to $80 in a few days."
"Wells Fargo made money at that time."
He waved his hand.
Alpha smiled bitterly again.
Of course he knew that Abel was talking.
In October, although international crude oil began to fall, many people still felt that this was just a cyclical price adjustment.
USD 80 is the normal price of international crude oil. The decline at that time was only temporary and oil will rise.
After all, it costs more than 100 US dollars a barrel at the highest time, which is an era when oil-producing countries make money so weak. The countries that should use oil can only be taken out and bought.
Throughout October, although international crude oil continued to fall, there were various brief rises in the middle, falling for three days and rising for one or two days. It is because of this that many investment institutions and investors only have an optimistic attitude.
Until November.
Although it is only four days.
The international situation has changed suddenly, and international crude oil has lost support at various price points. In conjunction with the overall pessimistic development trend of the world economy, whether it is oil-producing countries or major futures banks, they have almost begun to maintain a pessimistic attitude towards international crude oil.
Oil will continue to fall.
It is the new view of everyone now.
Alpha, one of the senior executives who had opposed the bet with Abel, received requests and instructions from senior executives of Wells Fargo in New York.
Hopefully, through them, Abel can cancel the bet with Wells Fargo.
Recover the losses on the contract.
But the senior executives in New York are unwilling to pay too much.
I hope to pass Alpha, who has a good relationship with Abel, and John Mellon, to let Abel agree to end the contract early at the current price.
Abel's party cannot unilaterally terminate this oil contract betting agreement. However, on the other hand, the bank can in turn demand early termination, provided that Abel's party agrees.
Want to shrink now.
For Abel, this is certainly impossible.
But Alpha can only try it.
As a result, Abel blocked him back.
Alpha wanted to try it again, but was interrupted by John Mellon.
John Mellon said: "No need to say it. Abel, we will make New York pay the price to satisfy you. Today we just want to get a statement from you, would you like to terminate the contract early?"
Compared with Alpha's desire to make money from nothing.
John Mellon obviously heard a lot of things, and Abel nodded, "Of course... as long as you can make money, it is OK to terminate it early. But what is the requirement..."
He smiled.
No further talk.
John Mellon nodded to show his understanding.
Then the expression of routine on his face finally disappeared and returned to the normal expression he usually communicated with Abel.
He smiled and stopped Alpha from trying to discuss this, saying, "Then I think we can start discussing other pleasant things. What do you think? Mr. Alpha."
"Why……"
"All right."
Alpha knew that this greedy young man would not agree without paying some price.
He had no choice but to force his face to smile.
"Tell me something happy. John."
"uh-huh!"
John Mellon nodded reservedly.
He looked at Abel.
He whispered: "Your helicopter has arrived. If it weren't for the late, you could start delivering now!"
"oh!"
Abel was a little excited.
The S-92 helicopter (helicopter bus) ordered by Wells Fargo from Sikorsky has been placed since early October. If we follow the general private helicopter production process, we will not be able to get the goods in a month.
It will take at least about half a year.
But at that time, there happened to be a Sikorsky S-92 helicopter (helicopter bus) that someone bought half of the money and had no money to pay was taken over by Abel and bought it.
After a month of rest and adjustment, there will be a comfort transformation, as well as some high-end private transformations.
For example, adding cork floors, upgrading them to the top aviation seats, and then renovating some genuine leather and wood in the interior, as well as various other comfort equipment.
One month.
Delivery is finally available now.
This is his first private helicopter. After Abel experienced the private helicopter, he knew that it was convenient for short-distance transportation. Excellent private helicopters were definitely the first. Now that his plane has returned, he is of course a little happy.
To be continued...
