The rebirth of the Hong Kong Island chaebol, starting with a short-selling Eagle Sauce

Chapter 139 Privatization?Let’s line our own pockets first.

Seeing Wang Lei's proud look, the Minister of Economic Affairs' face was full of dissatisfaction.

But when he thought about not having to bear this mess himself, he was naturally very happy.

Bavlov announced the official lifting of the curfew, and the troops returned to their respective defense areas after a short rest.

This also means that this power seizure incident has officially come to an end.

Wang Lei was complacent about getting the position of economic consultant. He was worried about how to ask for oil and natural gas exploration rights, and the other party took the initiative to set up a ladder for him.

After returning to the guest house, Wang Lei told Zhao Ling and An Dingguo what happened today.

"Xiao Wang...leader, it's okay. In this way, our mission has been successfully completed."

Zhao Ling also looked at Wang Lei with admiration.

The other party almost accomplished an almost impossible task by himself.

"Two division chiefs, the task is only half completed. Now you need to go back and report to the organization immediately. I am waiting for new instructions here."

Zhao Ling nodded reluctantly.

She really wanted to stay here to share the pressure with Wang Lei, but she couldn't help anything by staying here. Instead, it would make Wang Lei's hands tied.

"wait me back."

The two took advantage of the darkness and took the people on the plane back to Kyoto.

Watching the Boeing 757 pierce the sky, Wang Lei nodded with satisfaction.

Now that the two of them are separated, he can let go and do anything.

Otherwise, Zhao Ling would follow him all the time, and he would not be able to find a suitable opportunity to contact Robert.

"Robert, how is the development of Husky in Maple Kingdom recently?"

"The profits are very good, and the oil price has risen from US$18.2/barrel last year to US$23.81/barrel!"

Since buying Husky, the price of oil has been rising year by year. Especially in the past two months, the oil market has been very good, and even encountered a situation where there is a price but no market.

The reason is still caused by the oil war.

Saddam suddenly ordered the invasion of Kuwait with 8 troops in August. The war led to a sharp rise in oil prices.

When Wang Lei let Cayman enter the oil industry, the price of oil was only about US$12 per barrel. Today, the price has doubled.

I don't know if Mr. Li, the richest man, would be so angry that he would vomit blood on the spot if he knew about this.

Thinking of this, Wang Lei ordered:

"Let Husky's new president come to Moscow and prepare various materials for the bidding. I plan to buy some of Big Goose's oil properties with Husky's help."

Hearing this, Robert was a little surprised:

"Boss, are you talking in your sleep? Big Goose's oil industry is a state-owned asset. Even if they plan to sell it, it won't be your turn as an outsider."

"Hehe, I forgot to tell you that I am now the economic advisor of the Soviet Union and am fully responsible for the economic reform of Big Goose!"

Robert was still a little confused. Because the army blocked the news, everything that happened in Moscow was not fermented. Naturally, he didn't know what happened.

Wang Lei explained the matter briefly, and Robert gained a new understanding of his boss's abilities.

If Big Goose's financial system hadn't yet been integrated with international standards, he would have wanted to reenact the scene of the army's invasion of Sakura Island.

"There is a chance. Sooner or later, Big Goose's rupee will be in line with international standards. The depreciation of the rupee is inevitable. I don't need to tell you when the time comes. The short sellers will come over if they smell it."

However, it is unrealistic to replicate the miracle of Sakura Island, because Bavlov is not Ye Liqing, who leads the way, and Wang Lei is not an economist in the United States.

Even if you put a dog in this position, it would be impossible to replicate the 2-fold devaluation.

But it is still okay to depreciate by two or three times.

The two planned again. When it came to Husky's new president, Robert hesitated to say:

"This Mr. Lindgren has a strange personality. Boss, you should be more patient."

"How weird, you can talk to me first, I have time to consider whether to make a temporary substitution."

"No, boss, he is almost perfect at work, but he is very strict and can't even tolerate the slightest bit of sand. He has a special personality and it's not easy to make friends."

From the name, Wang Lei knew that the other party was German, and rigor was in his blood.

Wang Lei thought about it and realized that this kind of talent was what he needed most. He was too lazy to deal with officials from the economic department. Maybe it would be a good idea to use Lindgren to disgust them.

But before inviting Lindgren to join his reform team, he needs to actually meet people and conduct an inspection.

Early the next morning, Wang Lei arrived at the White House in Liu Hu's new Porsche 911.

Big Goose doesn't attach much importance to the civilian car manufacturing industry, and Liu Hu also spent a lot of effort to get this Porsche 911.

Such models are mostly used as police cars, so they can drive freely in Moscow.

As for his bodyguards, they drove around in Mercedes-Benz.

I don’t know if it’s because Wang Lei’s achievements were spread by someone, but the congressmen looked at him with awe.

"Mr. Wang Lei, the President is waiting for you in his office."

Under the leadership of the enchanting secretary, Wang Lei came to Bavruf.

The other party seemed to be thinking about something, his brows were furrowed, and he didn't even notice Wang Lei walking up to him.

"Mr President?"

Only after the secretary whispered a reminder did Bavruf come back to his senses:

"You're here, please sit down."

"Sorry, I was just thinking about economic reform. Both Bachov and Ye Liqing hope to privatize state-owned assets, believing that only in this way can we integrate with international standards and implement a free economy."

It can be heard from his voice that he is full of fear and disgust towards privatization.

If you follow what he says, he will no longer be Wang Lei, and he will not be able to demonstrate his abilities as an economic consultant.

Wang Lei thought for a while and said:

"Privatization is an inevitable process towards a capitalist country. If we want to stimulate the vitality of a free economy, privatization is the most powerful way."

"Do you think so too?"

Bavlov was slightly disappointed.

"Mr. President, to tell you the truth, the privatization process can be controlled artificially. As long as we control it to a certain extent, we can avoid the loss of state-owned assets as much as possible."

This undoubtedly hit Pavlov's pain point. He was afraid that privatization would become a tool for private profit-making, causing a large-scale loss of state-owned assets.

"Mr. Wang Lei, can you control the privatization process?"

"A company can have many shareholders. Privatization does not mean that the state hands off its hands. While we are privatizing, state-owned units can still retain certain shares!"

"Sir, you mean that while we reform enterprises, we will leave a certain amount of state-owned shares?"

"Yes, local governments or officials can still participate in the company's personnel transfer and management through the board of directors."
